After a while, Mu Guixiang asked cautiously:

"Chief Meng, do you really have to leave Nanjing? You said that I was born and raised in Nanjing. My ancestors have been Nanjing people for generations, and my child is still young. It's a long way from Nanjing to Chongqing, right? I'm afraid that my child won't be able to bear the bumps along the way.

."

"We have to go." Meng Shaoyuan organized there: "Now China and Japan are like two bows and arrows. The strings are too tight. As soon as your fingers loosen, the arrow has to be sent out. If the Japanese want to take action, they must

We will take action in Shanghai. If Shanghai can withstand it and we can defeat the Japanese, that would be the best."

He originally wanted to say that Shanghai would definitely be lost.

But if you really have to say this, if you don't mention it, I'm afraid that if it is leaked, you will be labeled as a "traitor".

So Meng Shaoyuan put it another way: "But what if we can't defeat it? Although Japan is small, its military and technology are far ahead of ours. If Shanghai is lost, Nanjing will be directly exposed to the Japanese cannon. At that point

It’s too late to retreat now.”

Although he was reluctant to leave Nanjing, Meng Shaoyuan's judgment was rarely wrong.

"Don't worry, we are the only ones in Nanjing, Lu Jinshi." Meng Shaoyuan smiled and comforted: "Then Chongqing is a good place. Look, if the war on the front line goes unfavorably, our Chairman and the National Government may move the capital to Chongqing.

When you are there, is it not the same as in Nanjing?"

"Oh, little brother of the Meng family." Zhu Yanni drank a lot of wine, and she was a little drunk, so her title also changed: "It's a shame that you don't become an official. Look at this flattery, the Chairman is here

Wherever you are is home.”

There was a lot of teasing from the side.

Meng Shaoyuan sneered.

But the decision to evacuate Nanjing in advance is not only irreversible, but has already been taken.

"In Chongqing, according to the boss's wishes, I have started to buy houses in large quantities. All the furniture and everything is available. You can just bring someone with you. Also, I know that you all have money, so don't hoard French currency.

, if we really go to war, this legal currency will depreciate."

Lu Yixuan immediately said: "Also, your money must not be deposited in the Bank of China or the Japanese bank. All your money should be deposited in foreign banks. It is safe there. Even if you just trust Chinese banks, like Jingye Bank

You must never put money into a private bank like this, it will fall down at the drop of a hat, and there will be no place to cry when the time comes."

Lu Yixuan still has some business acumen and sees things very accurately.

Meng Shaoyuan knew this very well.

Once the Anti-Japanese War broke out, the legal currency devalued rapidly, and small private banks collapsed one after another.

But if Lu Yixuan's words spread, he will be labeled as a "traitor" again.

Chongqing can rest assured if they let him sit there.

"If you want to exchange foreign money or change banks, just ask me as a disciple for such trivial matters." Lu Yixuan pointed at Ren Yinghao beside him, and then he seemed a little unwilling:

"Boss Meng, I don't understand. We have so many people in China and so many troops. Each one of us drowned the Japanese by spitting at them. How come we can't defeat them?"

In fact, most people here, let alone Lu Yixuan, don't quite understand this question.

"The British in the Guangxi Army bought weapons, and the Germans in the Central Army bought weapons. They also hired so many advisory groups. This one is a German weapon master, and that one is an elite tour, which made everyone feel confident." Join Li Xing.

Zhao Changle, who had not been in the club for a long time, also complained: "If there is a fight, how long can we last?"

"We can fight for a long time." Meng Shaoyuan said unexpectedly: "Maybe in the early stages of the war, we will continue to lose, but China is so big and the strategic depth is unimaginable to the Japanese. Don't worry, the final victory will definitely be ours.

"

When he said this, everyone immediately felt a lot more relieved.

Especially Mu Guixiang.

It seems that leaving Nanjing is temporary, and I may be able to come back in a few months.

When Meng Shaoyuan said that China is so big, a joke suddenly appeared in Meng Shaoyuan's mind that he couldn't tell everyone yet.

The heads of those high-ranking officials who make decisions in Japan are not brains, but lard.

Some officials can even be called idiots.

For example, before the Pacific War broke out, the Emperor of Japan had doubts about whether he could defeat the United States and asked his chief of staff how long it would take to defeat the United States.

The chief of staff was very confident and said that the war would be over in three months.

The Emperor of Japan definitely doesn’t believe it, he said, you guys, you guys, when we attacked China, you told me that you could defeat China in a month. It’s been a few years now, and Japan can’t stand it any longer, but you still stand up to me.

boast.

The chief of staff's answer was that the problem in China was too big and there was no way to complete the production schedule according to the normal time.

The Emperor said, do you really think me an idiot? China is big, so isn’t the Pacific Ocean bigger?

This is the top level of Japan. Many important decisions, even decisions that can change the fate of the country, are made with a slap on the head and a few slogans of "Japan must win."

It is nothing more than the saying that the butt determines the head.

"While you are all here, I just want to talk about some things." Meng Shaoyuan put down his chopsticks and said: "First, step up the training of our agents. By then we will be both agents and soldiers. Second, Tian Qi, this

You do what you need to do. The Radio and Television Administration has caught a traitor. Although we didn't catch him, you should follow up and see if you can dig out anything else.

Also, Lao Yuan, when the New Year is over, don’t stay in Nanjing. Get some money and a few people and go to Shanghai. I will tell you who to go to then. You can set up a place for us in Shanghai in advance.

Dot. For those officials and powerful people in Shanghai, please invite what you should and give what you should give. Let us establish a firm foothold in Shanghai as soon as possible."

"okay, I get it."

"This year has passed." Zhu Yanni sighed: "It looks like a military meeting. If a war really breaks out, I'm afraid it won't be finished in a year or two. What about next year's New Year?"

One or two years?

It's been a long time.

Meng Shao originally wanted Zhu Yanni to go to Chongqing. After all, women were active on the battlefield. Once they fell into the hands of the Japanese, the consequences would be disastrous.

But he also understood Zhu Yanni's temperament, and it was absolutely impossible for her to leave him and go to Chongqing alone.

He quickly changed the topic: "By the way, I have received reliable news that in the past two months, we may have to merge with the Central Organization Department. For the matter of Matsumoto Jiro, we have merged with those from the Central Adjustment Department

A grudge has been made."

"Report to Chief Meng, that is the enmity between you and Xu Enzeng, and it has nothing to do with us, right?"

What kind of subordinates are these?

Meng Shaoyuan couldn't laugh or cry: "Can you stay out of it? Have you forgotten about Huo Peng? Can Xu Enzeng let me go? Can he let you go? This kid is narrow-minded. But I put my words here and must unite."

I believe you are the only one who has ghosts.

Several subordinates looked at each other.

It's your Section Chief Meng's prerogative to retaliate. Are you saying that someone is narrow-minded?

Just look at it, Master Meng has probably been preparing there for a long time. It's best if the people in the Central Medical Examination Department are willing to live in peace. If something really happens, Master Meng may come up with some evil ideas.

"By the way, there is something I forgot to tell you." After Yuan Zhonghe said this, he heard sporadic firecrackers coming from outside, and said to Lu Yixuan and others: "Lu Jinshi, take the children to see the firecrackers.

.”

Lu Yixuan understood that they had something to say, so he hurriedly got up and took Guo Rui, Ren Yinghao and others out.

"Lao Yue and Yunzhe are our own people, let's talk."

Yuan Zhonghe nodded: "I saw Zhan Xirui in Nanjing during the few days you were out."

"who?"

"Who else can it be? From the Jiaxing Public Security Bureau...ah, now it's called the police station again, Jiaxing Police Chief Zhan Xirui!"

Suddenly, the wine table fell silent.

Everyone who participated in the operation that day gradually forgot about this matter.

But why did Zhan Xirui come to Nanjing at this time?

"Maybe you're here to visit relatives and friends?" Zhu Yanni said carefully.

"I hope so." Meng Shaoyuan murmured, "But no matter what, we will follow what we discussed before."

Yue Zhenchuan was confused when he heard this: "What's going on?"

Meng Shaoyuan thought for a moment: "Lao Yue, Yunzhe, although you have joined not long ago, your brothers have nothing to hide. We caused a big mess in Yaozhuang Town before..."

"The murder of a bandit?" Yue Zhenchuan remembered it as soon as he heard it: "Did you do that?"

Seeing Meng Shaoyuan nodding, Yue Zhenchuan immediately gave a thumbs up: "When Yunzhe and I heard about this incident, we both said that some kind of hero protected the donations for the relief of the victims. It was you who did it for a long time?

Chief Meng, I'm convinced. Don't worry, we will keep it secret."

That being said, Zhan Xirui's sudden appearance in Nanjing always makes people a little uneasy.

"No, doesn't Commander Xiao have a grudge against him?" Wei Yunzhe said suddenly.

"Commander Xiao has a grudge against him?" Meng Shaoyuan suddenly became concerned.

"Yes, it seems that it fell into the hands of Zhan Xirui for some relative of Commander Xiao. Commander Xiao personally called to no avail. I'm not particularly clear on the specific details."

While listening, Meng Shaoyuan quickly started thinking.

This seems to be somewhat interesting, maybe I can think of some way to put this matter to a complete end.

"There is wine today and you will be drunk today." Xiang Shounong raised the wine bowl: "We can't decide what will happen tomorrow. Come on, let's do it!"

Several wine bowls bumped into each other.

Outside, the sound of firecrackers was heard, which immediately made the people in the room excited.

It’s Chinese New Year.

This is the Chinese New Year.

War may break out, but after all, this moment still belongs to the Chinese New Year.

Zhu Yanni stood up and opened the door, looking at the firecrackers and fireworks outside, screaming and jumping happily like a child.

Actually, how old is she?

She was originally at the age where her parents were urging her to get married, but now she has become a spy.
