Chapter 421 Temporary Evacuation

The geographical location of Hezaobang is very important. In Shanghai, some smaller rivers are called Bang, but Hezaobang is the third largest river in Shanghai after the Huangpu River and Suzhou River.

The Guo army placed large forces here, which not only threatened the Japanese army at all times, but also controlled the Japanese army in Baoshan and the Huangpu River estuary, and strangled the Japanese army's way forward.

In fact, Hazaobang has always been a strategic location.

It's no secret that the Japanese army wants to take over Hazaobang, and they have been conducting violent attacks before.

General Zhu also attaches great importance to this place. The previous strategic retreat has achieved results and did not allow the Japanese army to take away Hezao Bang. It is still in the hands of the Guo army.

But now that the Japanese army has once again assembled a large number of troops, can General Zhu still hold there?

Chu Lingyun didn't know that he was not the general leading the battle. His mission was to gather information and report important information in a timely manner.

"Get ready to send the report.

The information revealed by Chishang today is very important. Although Chu Lingyun has not made a complete judgment yet, the fighter planes are fleeting and he will report as many as he has.

After receiving Chu Lingyun's report, the director did not dare to be careless and immediately reported it to General Zhu.

"The Japanese army is going to fight tooth and nail."

General Zhu received the news and said bitterly that the battle had just ended and the Japanese army failed to do what they wanted, but their troops did not retreat and were still preparing for a strong attack.

"Send a report to the Chairman and ask for help immediately.

Although he held on to the battle just now, he suffered heavy losses. If the Japanese army was desperate and at all costs, coupled with the support of the air force and navy, it is not certain that Hazao Bangzhen would be able to hold it.

This place was too important. As a last resort, General Zhu asked for help again. He must protect this strategic location.

A fishing village.

Loach is hiding here with his men. He is pretending to be a fisherman, but he has not fished a few times during this time.

The Japanese have very strict control over the riverside. Once they find someone violating the regulations, they will not make any excuses and will directly overturn the fishing boat.

In order to survive, few people fish secretly anymore. No one dares to do this unless they really can’t survive.

After being here for so long, he didn't get much information. He only detected some movements of the Japanese army, but today he got an important piece of news.

A group of wounded soldiers were recuperating fifteen miles away from him.

And we just arrived not long ago.

The Japanese army, like the Guo army, had insufficient hospitals, and many lightly wounded soldiers had to recuperate in the camp. The injuries of this group of Japanese soldiers were slightly more serious, and staying in the camp would easily affect their morale.

The Japanese army gathered them together and put them in a town for repairs

keep.

There were quite a few wounded soldiers in this group, more than 800 in total, as well as about 200 guards, as well as some doctors and nurses.

Little Loach didn't know that these were wounded soldiers who had retreated from the forcible attack on Rozaobang and were resettled nearby.

There are thousands of Japanese soldiers, even if most of them are wounded, this is important information.

Chu Lingyun received the news quickly and immediately took out the map.

The location where this group of people cultivated was to the west, only more than thirty miles away from the front line of Chen Civil Engineering Department.

Such a close distance must be a short-term recuperation. These wounded soldiers will be temporarily accommodated. As soon as space is available elsewhere, they will be evacuated immediately.

There were thousands of Japs, Chu Lingyun narrowed his eyes.

Since the beginning of the war, the Guo army has killed and wounded many Japanese, but it has not been able to annihilate thousands at a time. Especially this time, if it works well, it can inflict heavy damage on them at a very small cost.

So many Chinese people and a thousand Japanese soldiers died, even the interest was not enough.

These Japanese soldiers will evacuate soon, and they must be eliminated as soon as possible.

It's not enough to just rely on the people in Chu Lingyun's hands to fill their teeth. However, as long as the terrain map and location are handed over to Chen Mutu, with Chen Mutu's ability, he can definitely destroy these people with absolute certainty.

"Tell Loach to move."

Chu Lingyun ordered, these wounded soldiers should be

When an attack occurs, the Japanese army will definitely step up investigations, and Loach cannot stay where he is.

With the goods, Chu Lingyun found Chi Shang.

This time I gave Chishang a lot of goods. Chishang made more than 100 yen in the past two days. Seeing that Chu Lingyun had sent so many good things, I happily received him.

"Brother Ikegami, your usual work is very hard, right?"

In the camp, Chu Lingyun asked softly, while Chi Shang shook his head and said: "It's not hard work, but it's very dangerous.

The place he patrolled was close to the Chinese defense area. If he got too close, he would probably be discovered by Chinese scouts and shoot them dead.

During this period, some patrols did die at the hands of the Chinese. Likewise, they also killed many people from the other side.

"If it's dangerous, you must pay attention. If possible, move to a safer place."

"Where is the safe place now?"

Chishang sighed. He had received notice that they would go to the front line tomorrow.

After arriving at the front line, he didn't know whether he could come back.

"Brother Chishang, I have to leave.

Chu Lingyun suddenly said that Loach must evacuate, but he will also face danger. The wounded soldiers were eliminated as soon as they arrived. The Japanese must have known that someone was spying on intelligence.

He has only been here for a short time, and if he continues to stay at this time, he will definitely be investigated by the Japanese.

Using his evacuation in exchange for the lives of a thousand Japanese soldiers was a worthwhile deal. Besides, his place was a temporary stronghold and he had no intention of staying there for a long time.

Transferring is not evacuation. Chu Lingyun must continue to spy on intelligence here. Chishang's relationship cannot be lost. He is more important than Inoue's identity. "Where are you going?

Chi Shang immediately asked, he didn't expect Chu Lingyun to leave. The business was going well, why did he leave?

"I want to go back to the concession first. I heard that there is no more conscription there. It's still too dangerous here. I'm worried that I will be caught on the battlefield at any time."

Chu Lingyun replied that when the war first started, almost all the Japanese expatriates in the concession were recruited.

With the arrival of reinforcements, there is no need for so many civilians now, and ordinary expatriates are no longer being requisitioned in the concession.

Chishang knew this and was not surprised.

"You are right. If we fight here, your store may not be saved.

Chishang sighed, he still didn't know if he could come back alive.

"Brother Chishang, although I am gone, I can still provide you with goods. When you come back, I will have people deliver goods to you regularly so that you can make more money."

"Really?" Chishang's eyes widened. He didn't expect that Chu Lingyun was about to leave, but she was still thinking of him.

"Of course, Brother Ikegami, there is an old Chinese saying about meeting an old friend in a foreign land. You are a retainer of the Hosokawa family, and I am a classmate of the young master of the Hosokawa family. We are so close that I can't help you in other ways, but here is

There’s absolutely no problem if you deliver some goods.”

Chu Lingyun smiled and nodded, not only Chishang would send it, but Inoshang would also send it.

If these connections are retained, they can continue to provide him with the information he wants.

"You still have your heart, don't worry, I will definitely come back safely this time.

Chishang was very happy. Chu Lingyun coaxed him a few more words. After walking around Chishang's camp, he returned to the shop.

Several groups of people have not been idle these days. The patrol positions and times here, as well as the layout of the military camp are almost figured out, and it is time to move.

At Chen Mutu's headquarters, Chen Shouquan took Chu Lingyun's secret message and came to Chen Mutu.

"Ling Yun has given us a big gift."

Chen Mutu laughed loudly when he saw the telegram. There were more than 800 wounded soldiers and 200 guards. Chen Mutu accepted it with a smile.

If they dare to come to your door, they are seeking death.

This is also due to the lack of depth of the Japanese army. If they had enough territory, these wounded soldiers would never be placed here and would only be sent to the rear.

There are not many opportunities like this, and these wounded Japanese soldiers may be sent away at any time.

Chen Mutu decided to take action that night. "Boom, boom, boom."

At night, loach quilt

He was awakened by the sound of artillery. Even Chu Lingyun heard the sound of the artillery and understood that Chen Mutu was attacking the wounded soldiers.

The Japanese wounded soldiers have not been transferred yet, so Chen Mutu will achieve good results this time.

They are just wounded soldiers. They can't run or stop. They can only

They will become cannon fodder and will eventually be destroyed.

Chu Lingyun did not inquire about the result and took the people to evacuate early the next morning.

Chen Mutu received the results of the battle.

As expected, there were many wounded soldiers in that town. There were not many people in the town. Most of them ran away when the Japanese came over, and the rest were old, weak, sick and disabled.

These people were all gathered in the ancestral hall outside the town, and they escaped this time.

Almost all the wounded soldiers in the town were massacred by Chen Shouquan and his commando team. More than half of the 200 guards were killed or injured. They were only protecting the wounded soldiers and did not carry heavy weapons.

Moreover, they are a second-rate army, formed from forced expatriates.

One can imagine the fighting power of such guards. If some of them hadn't run very fast and Chen Shouquan didn't dare to chase them, he could have wiped them all out.

Nearly a thousand Japanese soldiers were killed, even wounded soldiers and new recruits. It was a great victory.

Chen Mutu sent the good news to the old man, who was very happy.

Virgo also received the good news and knew that it was Chu Lingyun who provided the information.

He did not expect that after Chu Lingyun arrived in the enemy-occupied area, he would perform meritorious service one after another. Not only did he send several important intelligences, but this time he also guided the Guo army to annihilate thousands of enemies at once, while his own losses were negligible.

This time, the people brought by Chen Shouquan only suffered about a dozen casualties.

The Guo Army quickly issued a report telling everyone the results of this battle. However, the report did not say that the killed were wounded soldiers, but they were indeed Japanese soldiers, which was correct.

The Japanese were furious and demanded a thorough investigation into the matter.

The military police conducted a detailed investigation and soon discovered that Ni Loach and others had escaped. Chu Lingyun's departure did not attract their special attention.

The main reason is that Chu Lingyun is Japanese and is far away. But because of Chu Lingyun's departure, he was also investigated. Chu Lingyun didn't care. It would be strange for such a thing to not be investigated. Inoue was absolutely

He won't tell him, and as for Ikegami, he still wants to use his relationship to help speak for the Hosokawa family, and he won't say anything detrimental to him.

"General Chen."

Chu Lingyun withdrew to Chen Mutu. Seeing him, Chen Mutu was very happy and immediately pulled him into his office.

There were too many people in the command room, and it was inconvenient for Chu Lingyun to go there.

"Ling Yun, well done."

Chen Mutu extended his thumb to Chu Lingyun. There were not many people in Chu Lingyun, but what they did was of extraordinary significance.

Chen Mutu knew the importance of intelligence, but he didn't expect that Chu Lingyun entered the enemy-occupied area alone and found so much useful information and helped him twice.

After killing the Japanese wounded soldiers this time, the old man said happily that one Chu Lingyun could support a whole regiment.

From Chen Mutu's point of view, the old man still underestimated Chu Lingyun's value. Not to mention a regiment, a division was worth it.

Last time I helped him reduce the battle losses of thousands of people, and this time I helped him kill thousands of Japanese.

Even an ordinary division would find it difficult to achieve such results.

"General Chen, I'm so grateful. I should have done everything I should have done."

Chu Lingyun said modestly, the war is still going on, and the Japanese army has indeed launched an attack on Hazaobang. There is still a fierce battle there.

Chen Mutu also sent many people to support him.

In addition, the old man ordered the Gui army to reinforce Shanghai to march quickly and arrive at the battlefield as soon as possible to join the battle.

Just now, the 8th Division, which had been fighting fiercely for several days, retreated to the rear for repairs.

In Hazaobang, the 8th Division held on the longest, lasting 21 days. No matter which position they fought to this day, they could not hold on as long as they did.

Even if the so-called ace army of the direct line can persist for seven days, it is already extraordinary.

And the whole

In the entire division, only a few hundred people were left in the end, and most of them were injured. This shows how tragic the battle was. They are meritorious ministers and well-deserved heroes.

Listening to Chen Mutu's rapid narration of these battlefield events, Chu Lingyun was also a little jealous.

This battle was too difficult. There was no air control or sea control. Too many soldiers were fighting for their lives, but they could only die in vain under the Japanese artillery fire.

The gap in equipment cannot be filled with human lives.

"It is estimated that we cannot hold the seaweed beach. Once the seaweed beach is lost, we will

We must retreat. By then Japan will have more strategic depth, and I am afraid this battle will be even more difficult to fight.

Chen Mutu sighed. A war that he thought could wipe out the enemy actually ended like this. Everyone was simmering with anger.

This war also made them see clearly the real gap between themselves and Japan.

But until now, no one can stop and can only continue. "I understand.

Chu Lingyun was silent. He had seen the map countless times.

By guarding Rozaobang, the Japanese army can be blocked in the Baoshan area. The space here is limited, otherwise the Japanese army would not place the wounded soldiers in such dangerous positions, giving Chu Lingyun an opportunity to take advantage of.

But once Rozaobang is lost, Nanxiang will not be able to protect Dachang in the south.

If the army retreats, I'm afraid they will have to retreat all the way to Suzhou River.

Then use the Suzhou River to continue to block the enemy, but in this way, even SH urban area will be in danger.

Once Nanshi (note) falls, Shanghai will be completely lost.

The most important thing is that the railway will be cut off by the Japanese army. Whether it is materials or personnel, it will no longer be possible to rely on the railway to enter and exit.

Therefore, the battle at Hezao Bang is very important, and it is the key to whether it can block the Japanese army. It is precisely because of this that the Japanese army fought tooth and nail to break through Hezao Bang, and they have been attacking there for so long.
