Chapter 919 After the bombing(1/2)
The sky above Chongqing is filled with smoke, and the air is filled with a pungent smell.
Meng Shaoyuan walked out of the air-raid shelter.
The Japanese bombing is over.
I don’t know how many houses were blown up and how many people died.
"Report."
Wang Nanxing rushed over, but before he opened his mouth, Meng Shaoyuan asked:
"Is Director Dai safe?"
"Director Dai is safe." Wang Nanxing quickly replied: "One person in our operations department was killed and two were injured in this bombing. The remaining losses are still under investigation."
"Sir Meng."
The one who came over was Li Zhifeng, the captain of his own guard whom Xue Yue lent: "There are no casualties in our guard."
"Well, take care of yourself."
"Sir Meng." Li Zhifeng still raised his doubts: "What is our mission?"
Yes, what exactly is the mission?
Not only Li Zhifeng, but the other nine people were also very confused.
It's true that you have good food and accommodation here, but you don't have to do anything.
They are soldiers, not here to enjoy themselves.
"Wait a moment." Meng Shaoyuan comforted him: "You will have a mission soon."
…
The bombing on December 12 resulted in a total of 124 casualties among Chinese military and civilians.
This is a strategic bombing of a certain key city. It is not a particularly large number, but it is just one of the countless bombings that Chongqing will face in the future.
Chongqing will face countless sufferings.
But Chongqing will also straighten its steel backbone.
Chongqing will not surrender, and neither will China!
The Meng family members walked out of the air-raid shelter.
Fortunately, the garden once again narrowly escaped disaster.
"Arao." Cai Xuefei called as soon as she came out.
"I'm here." Butler Alao cursed the damn Japanese monkey in his mind and hurried over.
"Go, go outside and take a look." Cai Xuefei found it difficult to move: "Bring more people, medicine, and food. There must be many families who have been affected by the disaster."
"Okay, ma'am."
Meng Shaoyuan saw Luo Gen and stopped him: "Mr. Luo Gen, can you please also take your people to help? Thank you."
"Madam." Logan hesitated: "The task given to me by the boss is to protect your safety."
"Logan." Cai Xuefei said with a smile: "This is Chongqing, this is the rear area. Our safety is not the most important. Those who are affected by the disaster need your help even more. Please, my friend."
Logan shrugged, whistled, and summoned all the "X-Team" members.
When he was about to set off, he suddenly said: "Madam, you are a kind person. I believe that the country behind a kind person like you will never fail."
Cai Xuefei firmly believes in this.
My husband is fighting for this country. My husband will not lose, and neither will my country!
"Hurry up, you guys go back and rest quickly." As soon as Shang Qianyi came out, she supported Yin Peiya and said: "You are pregnant, don't be tired."
"sister!"
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came.
Yin Peiya was startled, turned around and looked, surprised and happy:
"Xiao Zhong!"
It's Xiaozhong, Xiaozhong is back!
"Sofia!"
Before he could leave, Logan also caught a glimpse of Sophia and a girl beside her.
"Head, here I come."
Sophia said lightly.
Xiaozhong rushed up and saw the baby Yin Peiya was holding: "Is this my niece?"
"Yes!" Yin Peiya nodded vigorously: "You are now an uncle."
Xiao Zhong was as happy as a child, looking at his niece again and again: "What's your name?"
"I haven't chosen a name yet. I want to wait for Shao Yuan to come back and help her choose a name."
When Meng Shaoyuan was mentioned, Zhu Yanni asked fiercely: "Xiao Zhong, did you come back alone?"
"No, Brother Meng is back too."
Suddenly, all the girls cheered.
Meng Shaoyuan is back!
Zhu Yanni asked: "How long has it been since you came back?"
"It's been a few days."
"Okay!" Zhu Yanni said with a straight face: "We are all back. I don't know if I'm going home. Maybe I'm fooling around somewhere again."
"Brother Meng has an urgent mission." Xiao Zhong quickly explained: "He was ordered to stay at the headquarters, and there was no way to escape. He asked me to come back first to meet with your branch. No, before we arrived, Japanese planes came to bomb.
, I brought... by the way."
Xiao Zhong called Shinako over: "It's really Shinako Matsumoto."
"Are you Japanese too?" Upon hearing this, Yuri Yamashita happily took Makoto's hand.
No wonder, she was the only Japanese here, and now she suddenly had a compatriot, how could she not be excited?
"Ma Naiko?"
Zhu Yanni looked at Zhen Naiko in confusion.
Cai Xuefei smiled bitterly: "Sister Yanni, don't you understand? We need more sisters again."
Zhu Yanni was itching her teeth with hatred.
Although I had known for a long time that the young master was full of tricks and he might not be able to live happily alone in Shanghai, but so soon there was another one...
Makoto let go of Yuri Ai's hand and bowed deeply to them: "Please take good care of me in the future."
"Let's go, I'll take you to see it." Yuri Ai took Shinoko's hand affectionately and took her to visit the Meng family garden.
Xiaozhong said at this time: "Her father was Matsumoto Nitsugi, the head of the Japanese Army's secret service stationed in Shanghai. He committed suicide. Brother Meng was the indirect cause, so..."
As soon as these words came out, Zhu Yanni suddenly felt pitiful for Zhen Naizi.
After thinking for a while, he said bitterly:
"Damn Meng Shaoyuan, wait until you come back to see how I deal with you!"
…
"Mr. Dai, the bombing has just finished and there may be an explosion. Why did you come out so early?"
"Don't flatter me, flattering me is useless." Dai Li snorted coldly: "In this bombing, our air defense force failed to shoot down another Japanese plane. The Japanese seem to have known for a long time which places in Chongqing are the anti-aircraft firepower points.
Already."
Meng Shaoyuan understood instantly: "What Mr. Dai means is that there is a traitor in the air defense force?"
Dai Li nodded slowly.
With the beginning of key strategic bombing, the Japanese bombing became more and more intensive. From then on, it would happen every few days, causing heavy casualties every time.
To this end, the Nationalist Government also took some countermeasures, such as building underground air raid shelters that could accommodate tens of thousands of people, organizing anti-aircraft artillery units to bombard invading Japanese bombers, etc.
However, what is strange is that although the Nationalist Government deployed many anti-aircraft artillery fire units across Chongqing to stand ready and fire back with fierce fire once Japanese bombers flew over, very few enemy planes were shot down.
In addition, before and after each Japanese bombing of Chongqing, the intelligence staff of the Nationalist Government were always able to intercept some coded information, and without exception, this information was sent from Chongqing to the Japanese, as if they were remotely commanding the Japanese Air Force's bombing operations.
This shows that there are Japanese spies hiding in Chongqing! He should be the one who informed the Japanese army about the deployment of the national army’s air defense firepower in Chongqing.
However, because the radio communication codes used between the Japanese army and spies were very complex and difficult to decipher, the Nationalist government had no choice but to turn to the United States for help.
After learning of this situation, the United States immediately dispatched Herbert Yardley, a well-known domestic intelligence cryptography expert.
Yardley was the founder of the U.S. Military Intelligence Service, the future predecessor of the National Security Agency. He is known as the "Father of Cryptozoology" in the United States because of his superb code-breaking abilities.
In November 1938, Yardley came to Chongqing. The Nationalist Government awarded him the rank of major and arranged for more than 30 students with a background in Japan to serve as his assistants to assist him in deciphering Japanese military intelligence codes and finding out the secrets hidden in the Nationalist Army.
