March 10, 1940, was the second day of the second lunar month, also known as the dragon raising its head, which meant the coming of spring plowing.
On the second floor of Tung Fei & Co., Ltd. in Hong Kong, a group of people were also chatting with smiles on their faces.
"Chen Jun, in fact, our Imperial Japanese Empire only has three demands. The first is to ask your government to recognize Manchukuo, the second is to abandon the policy of resisting Japan and accommodating the Communists and conclude an anti-communist agreement, and the third is to allow the imperial army to station troops in North China."
The Japanese smiled and said, "Speaking of which, the meeting lasted for three days. As long as your government can agree to these three conditions, China and Japan can achieve peace."
"Suzuki-kun, in fact, we don't have much counter-offer to your request. Regarding the Manchuria issue, we agree to consider it in principle, but the method will be discussed separately. Regarding the issue of China giving up its policy of resisting Japan and tolerating the Communists, it is China's decision after the peace agreement.
It is an inevitable step; regarding the issue of mutual defense against communism, we agree in principle, but the secret military agreement will be reached secretly after peace is restored." Chen Chaolin, deputy director of the Chongqing Camp Staff Office, said, this time, he came on behalf of old Chiang Kai-shek
Secret talks with the Japanese.
"Mr. Chen, our Empire of Japan is very sincere." Takeo Imai said, "I still hope that your government will consider it carefully."
"Imai-kun, in fact, we only have three demands. As long as your army agrees to the above three conditions, we can actually negotiate." Chen Chaolin said neither humble nor overbearing.
"In this case, unfortunately, we can only discuss it slowly."
"Um."
Thus, the Chiang Kai-shek Round Table Conference ended on this day.
…
Many major events occurred in February and March of 1940, such as the death of General Mao Zedong, the death of Mr. Cai Yuanpei, etc., and in the Taihang Mountains, Zhu Huaibing's 97th Army of the Kuomintang was at war with the Eighth Route Army.
On March 11, the Eighth Route Army annihilated most of the 97th Army, and the 97th Army had to retreat to the Xiuwu area for training.
And this day was also the day when Li Chang brought his soldiers to report in front of Zhou Weiguo. The soldiers brought by Li Chang sacrificed three soldiers in the development of the epidemic.
When Zhou Weiguo saw Li Chang, he could only pat Li Chang on the shoulder, and then said, "Brother Li, this is my brother Liu San, the captain of our special team."
"Hello, Comrade Liu San." Li Chang saluted.
"Captain Li, you're welcome." Liu San returned the greeting.
"Third brother, take Captain Li and the others to the special operations team station and train them well." Zhou Weiguo said, then looked at Li Chang, "Brother Li, the training will be very hard. If there are soldiers who want to quit, you can do it now.
quit."
"Hahaha, Brother Zhou is joking!" Li Chang laughed, "We all come from poor backgrounds, so we have never experienced any hardships." Then he turned around and looked at the remaining 100 people, "
Are you afraid of hardship?"
"Don't be afraid! We are not afraid!"
Li Chang nodded with satisfaction.
Zhou Weiguo also smiled and arranged for someone to take them there.
Later, Zhou Weiguo found Liu Zhihui and said, "The weather is getting warmer. How about eating mutton?"
"Okay! I haven't eaten for several days, I think it's terrible!" Liu Zhihui said, "Brother, are you going to lay the bait?"
Zhou Weiguo smiled and said nothing, but nodded.
"Okay, let's go."
"Well, wait until I go back and change clothes." Zhou Weiguo said.
"Then I'll go too." Liu Zhihui said.
"Don't change." Zhou Weiguo said again, "This time, you have to wear your military uniform neatly to eat. We want a private room."
Liu Zhihui had no choice but to smile and nodded, "Okay, you are the only one who uses your brother as bait."
"Fuck you." Zhou Weiguo laughed.
So after a while, the two came to the last mutton restaurant again.
The owner of the mutton restaurant saw that Liu Zhihui was wearing a military uniform today. He squinted his eyes and carefully looked at his military rank. He was a colonel of the National Army. He was secretly surprised. It seemed that he could collect some useful information today, and then he said, "
Oh, isn't this Master Liu? Master Liu, are you an officer of the Independent Division?"
"Haha." Liu Zhihui smiled, "Yes, I have to go on a mission after dinner today. I didn't have time to change clothes, so I came here."
"This is really an honor for this small shop. If I had known that Mr. Liu was an independent chef, I would not have charged you for the past few meals." The boss said with a smile, "Today you eat, I will pay the bill."
"Yes, boss, this is not appropriate. I can still afford a meal, and I found someone to pay for it today." Liu Zhihui pointed at Zhou Weiguo behind him and said proudly.
"You." Zhou Weiguo said helplessly, "Okay, boss, do you have a private box today?"
"We have it today." The boss said quickly, "I'll take you two up."
"Then it will be hard work."
Then, the middle-aged man quickly led the two people upstairs, flattering Liu Zhihui while walking, which made Liu Zhihui laugh. In the middle-aged man's view, Liu Zhihui was only twenty-three-four years old, and he was already a colonel.
Yes, I heard before that those who need to go into the water may be important figures in the navy.
"Okay, I'm sorry to bother the boss, bring over whatever delicious food you have. I'm not afraid that no one will pay." Liu Zhihui laughed loudly after sitting down.
"Okay, those two will wait a moment."
"Yeah." Zhou Weiguo just nodded lightly. After the middle-aged man went out, Liu Zhihui winked at Zhou Weiguo, asking if my performance was okay.
Zhou Weiguo was a little amused and could only nod. At this time, it was not very convenient for them to talk. If they wanted to talk, they had to tell the news they wanted to reveal to the Japanese, so he said, "You should be more careful when entering the water this time.
We need to bring that batch of goods back safely."
"Don't worry, I've brought them with you so many times." Liu Zhihui replied with a smile. He didn't know that Zhou Weiguo was going to talk fiercely, so he could only go on. The two brothers have cultivated a tacit understanding for many years, and they also
This is reflected most vividly at this moment.
In a box next to it, there was a man leaning his ear against the wall. There was a small hole in the wall, but Zhou Weiguo and others could not see it because there was a landscape painting placed on top of the small hole in their box.
"If this batch of goods can be brought back safely, our independent division's air force will be able to increase its strength again." Zhou Weiguo added, "I heard that the Japanese have developed a new type of fighter aircraft, and they are waiting to be put into large-scale service."
"I've also heard that the Japs are really troublesome." Liu Zhihui sighed, "However, even if the Japs have new fighter planes, as long as we have this batch of goods, we are not afraid of the Japs."
"Yeah. But you still have to pay attention to safety when you go." Zhou Weiguo spoke again, then spread his palm and stretched out five fingers.
"Don't worry, it will be five days later. I will bring this batch of goods safely and I will come back safely." Liu Zhihui nodded.
