"Huh? Meng Shaoyuan is back?"

"Yes, I'm back."

Lin Qingquan sneered: "I heard that almost the entire 802 regiment was killed. The regiment commander...who is that? His life or death is uncertain. Is he Meng Shaoyuan back? Isn't this a deserter? I have said before that except for these people in the military command,

He does evil things, blackmails and other good things."

"Deputy Secretary-General, I'm afraid you can't say that." Shi Yifeng took a sip of tea and said calmly: "What is the mission of the military commander in the War of Resistance? Assassinating traitors, delivering intelligence, acting as guides, directing artillery, everything

Isn't there any article in it that says they must assist the army in fighting?

On the contrary, it has always been stipulated that special agents of the military command should try to avoid frontal combat. I think Meng Shaoyuan can definitely be classified as a special agent. But this man fought side by side with the Sichuan Army of the 802nd Regiment in Hazaobang for three days and fought bloody battles.

He has done far more than his job, and I would say he should have retired a long time ago."

Lin Qingquan snorted coldly.

Shi Yifeng just pretended not to hear: "Let me tell you, we should sort out the relevant information and make the most severe criticism of Meng Shaoyuan. He is the deputy section chief of the Military Unification Operations Section and the director of the Shanghai Supervision Office. He has more important tasks to do.

How can you think of yourself as an ordinary soldier, bathing in blood on the battlefield and dying?"

Is this harsh criticism?

Is this a different way to reward Meng Shaoyuan?

Lin Qingquan said in a strange tone: "Brother Yifeng takes great care of Meng Shaoyuan. I heard that Minister Kong's daughter went to Nanjing for a while, and it was this Meng Shaoyuan who served Miss Kong in front of and behind the saddle. Could it be that Minister Kong fell in love with Meng Shaoyuan and wanted to

Recruiting him as your son-in-law, is that why you, Brother Yifeng, care so much about me?"

"Deputy Secretary-General, please keep your words in mind." Shi Yifeng said slowly: "I, Shi Yifeng, am a small role. If you say that I flatter you, it's fine. But if you talk about Minister Kong and Miss Kong's reputation behind his back, even if someone wants to

It’s difficult to protect you.”

Lin Qingquan really shut up.

He had just been thinking about ridiculing Shi Yifeng and involved Kong Xiangxi and Kong Lingyi. If he really wanted to offend the Kong family, he might not be able to protect his backstage.

"Report, Meng Shaoyuan invited all members of the observation team to listen to the military reunification Shanghai District work report."

Um?

Everyone was startled.

Meng Shaoyuan just came back.

work report?

The first time I asked him for it, it was a military secret or something, but he refused to give it.

As for ordinary work reports, he just left on the pretext of being a guide.

Why did you just come back from the front line and why can't you wait to report to work?

"This..." Lin Qingquan was confused: "Where should I conduct my work report?"

"It's right here. Meng Shaoyuan will be there in a moment."

"Oh, I got it."

"One more thing."

"Speak, don't hesitate."

"A dozen reporters have already arrived. It is said that they were all invited by Meng Shaoyuan."

"What? Reporter?" Lin Qingquan's expression changed as soon as he heard this: "It's nonsense, intelligence work is so important, why did he call reporters here? Do you want to announce to the world how our intelligence front works? Blast them away, bomb them all.

Walk."

"Wait a minute." Shi Yifeng said: "Deputy Secretary-General, calm down. I think Meng Shaoyuan did it deliberately. It's a small thing to get rid of these reporters, but does it mean that we have something evil in our hearts? Meng Shaoyuan...

What if he talks nonsense to reporters himself?"

When Lin Qingquan thought about it, it seemed that this was indeed the case.

"Deputy Secretary-General, I think we should go take a look first." Shi Yifeng smiled faintly: "You are from the Executive Yuan, and I am from the Ministry of Finance. Although I am not Meng Shaoyuan's direct superior, I think he will still have concerns. Everyone here

Who is not an important person in all aspects? Who is he, Meng Shaoyuan, who dares to make a fool of himself in front of us?"

"Director Shi is absolutely right."

The person who spoke was Liang Penggang, a reporter from the "Central Daily News": "I am also a reporter. There is no need to regard reporters as savage beasts. According to what the deputy secretary-general said, I may also leak information? I am also patriotic. I know what can be reported and what

It cannot be reported.”

Lin Qingquan had completely forgotten about this person.

Furthermore, Shi Yifeng's words really made him worry that Meng Shaoyuan would talk nonsense in front of reporters. After thinking about it for a while, he said bravely: "Then let's go together and see what Meng Shaoyuan wants to do!"

…

Many reporters, big and small, came, and even the editor-in-chief of the famous "Jing Bao" in Shanghai, Yu Daxiong, came in person.

Is the platoon leader that big?

This pen in Yu Daxiong's hand is never forgiving.

Lin Qingquan began to feel a little worried.

In terms of military control, here comes Wu Jingyi.

She put on a special make-up today and wore black-rimmed glasses.

Moreover, reporters are strictly prohibited from bringing in cameras and taking photos today.

Otherwise, she was really worried about how she would explain it if her husband saw her photo in the newspaper.

No matter how good your makeup is, you can't hide it from the people closest to you.

Lin Qingquan frowned: "Where is your director?"

"Report to the Deputy Secretary-General." Wu Jingyi said politely: "Director Meng is on his way. I will report some simple daily work to the observation team first."

This way of reporting work is simply unheard of.

Shi Yifeng looked unfazed: "Tell me."

"Okay." Wu Jingyi took out a notebook: "Since Japan launched its brazen attack on Shanghai, our military intelligence organization has been fully committed to the war of resistance to defend our country and prevent an inch of land from falling into the enemy's hands.

In the early days of the Battle of Songhu, all groups, squadrons, and squads of our military intelligence organization went into battle. By the end of August, within more than ten days, 387 agents had been sacrificed, injured, and missing...

At the end of August, our military intelligence organization organized the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Rangers, the former Armed Rangers, and went into full battle in early September. There were five detachments in total. Except for the fifth detachment, the other four detachments were all put into front-line operations. This resulted in a sharp increase in casualties.

As planned, the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Rangers deployed along the Suzhou River in cooperation with the regular army. Due to the fierce Japanese artillery fire, the Rangers had difficulty penetrating deep into enemy lines, but they still fought bloody battles alongside the regular army. Although they suffered heavy casualties, they continued to fight.

To this day, there are countless heroic deeds of team members that have moved the world. Li Rang, the captain of one team, was bundled with grenades when the Japanese tanks were charging towards Sichuan Road. He was holding a pistol in each hand and led his team to charge towards the enemy.

.

Later, because our army's artillery fire repelled the tank, he did not risk his life, but he was still seriously injured and is still in the hospital.

The squadron leader of the third detachment, Mao Xun, led his troops to fight bravely and stayed on the line of fire for three consecutive days and nights. His team suffered heavy losses, with more than half of the casualties, and the squadron instructor also died in the battle.

After being injured, Mao Xun and the surviving team members took shelter in a firewood pile under a bridge and were bombed by enemy planes. Mao Xun's whole body was on fire, his beard and hair were burned off, his ears were deafened, and he was disabled due to serious injuries. If you are interested, I can

Let me take you to see me in person.

Four teams..."

At this point, Wu Jingyi paused for a moment, and then continued: "The four detachments were ordered to cover the retreat of the regular army on the north bank of the Suzhou River, and... all died in the battle."

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became solemn.

"Sacrifice them all?" Shi Yifeng asked in a daze.

"Yes, all sacrifices." Wu Jingyi took a deep breath: "After the war, we wanted to find someone alive, and we got our wish. We really found someone alive. But on the way to the hospital, he died.

There is no survivor among the four detachments. But the four detachments are still there because our superior has appointed a new commander!"

There was silence all around.

Shi Yifeng's tone was a bit difficult: "What's the specific number of casualties?"

"There is no way to make statistics for the time being." Wu Jingyi said calmly: "As the war continues and intensifies, almost all of our personnel have been transferred to the front line. Even my commander, because of the real lack of manpower, has personally served as the 802nd Regiment of the Sichuan Army.

Go to the front line with the guide.

It is difficult for the regular army, and it is equally difficult for us. In addition to our own tasks, once the regular army retreats, we must take on the covering task as soon as possible. There will be specific casualty figures, and we have registered a roster for everyone. I am now

What I can tell you is that our casualties so far are between 1,200 and 1,500. The injured and missing are not included in the statistics for the time being, especially those who are missing..."

Lin Qingquan muttered: "That's not much."

Wu Jingyi glanced at him and did not get angry: "What the deputy secretary-general said is that compared with the regular troops fighting bloody battles on the front line, the number is indeed small, but many of our intelligence personnel have gone deep behind enemy lines since the beginning of the war.

, whose life and death are still unknown. Compared with an army of millions, there are too few intelligence workers. Have you calculated the death rate?"

There is no reason for this.

Meng Shaoyuan was arrogant and domineering, so why were the people under him so arrogant? Lin Qingquan was extremely angry.

"Yes." Shi Yifeng sighed: "Millions of troops are fighting in Shanghai, but what about these agents? What is their base? How much loss can they bear? It's not easy."

Saying "It's not easy" is equivalent to completely overturning the rumor that Lin Qingquan and his ilk had spread before, that military reunification agents only do blackmail and do whatever they want.

Lin Qingquan's face was ashen.

Wu Jingyi looked at him coldly.

These figures are real, and they were specially revealed after consulting Dai Li. Firstly, they were to shatter those rumors, and secondly, they were to give the Japanese special organization an illusion:

The battle has progressed to this point, and the military commander has reached the end of his strength and is exhausted.

The Japanese special agencies will not know for the time being that more newly formed agents are rushing to the battlefield in Shanghai!

An agent came in and whispered a few words in Wu Jingyi's ear. Wu Jingyi immediately brightened up: "Report to the observation team, our commander has arrived."
Chapter completed!
