In the headquarters of the Chinese Dispatch Army in Nanjing, Senior General Nishio Shouzo, who had just assumed the post of commander-in-chief of the Chinese Dispatch Army, and Lieutenant General Seishiro Itagaki, chief of staff, were present, while the other Japanese officers at all levels who were sitting there all hung their heads, and just now, they were severely scolded by the angry Nishio Shouzo. In particular, the commander of the gendarmerie unit who served as the defense of Nanjing City was directly dismissed by Nishio Shouzo, and they will be severely punished.

"Baga, it's all rice buckets, not to mention the incident of Liang Hongzhi being wiped out, Dajiaochang Airport and Tushan Airport were actually attacked devastatingly in broad daylight, which is an act that the empire absolutely cannot allow. After Wuhan's Nanhu Airport was attacked by the troops of the China Army, the headquarters had already issued a document asking all airports to strengthen their precautions, so why was the airport in Nanjing still attacked by the China Army? "The commanders of the two gendarmerie units have been dismissed on the spot, but Nishio Shouzo, as the commander of the dispatch army, still can't contain the anger in his heart.

Nishio Shouzo was so angry that none of the other officers present dared to speak out, only the chief of staff Itagaki Seishiro finally said a few words, "General Dohi Yuan has rushed from Wuhan to Nanjing, and all information about this attack will be handled by General Tohi Yuan and his intelligence team later, everyone, the people of China are accustomed to using some sideways means to fight against our Great Japanese Army, I hope that this incident will not make you lose your persistence as an imperial soldier." ”

Kenji Dohi and his intelligence officers arrived quickly, but after a brief meeting with Nishio Toshizo and Itagaki Seishiro, Dohi Enji took his men to three places in the castle that had been attacked to conduct on-site investigations. In the end, he is a veteran of intelligence work, and the intelligence officers under Dohi Yuan have been busy all day, and they have already found out what interests Kenji Dohi Yuan from some clues.

"Chief, we have cleared some 9mm pistol shells and some bomb residues from the scene of Liang Hongzhi's house, and according to our preliminary analysis, these bomb residues are different from any kind of explosives we know." The photo taken out by Kenji Dohi was a black-brown lump the size of a cigarette box, and it was even harder to believe that this was the real culprit who razed Liang Hongzhi's house to the ground.

"We've analyzed this new explosive, but unfortunately, we haven't been able to analyze any explosives that are the same as it, so we're asking to send it back to the Imperial mainland, and maybe the Imperial University laboratory can analyze its composition." Of course, the Japanese had no way to analyze the composition of this explosive, because Zhuo Fei used a plastic explosive called C4. C4 is a highly effective explosive that can be firmly adhered to the surface of the target object like chewing gum if an adhesive material is attached to the outside.

If Zhuo Fei dared to use this new type of explosive, he was not afraid that the Japanese would know about it, because according to the current level of science and technology in this era, the Japanese would not be able to make this new type of explosive at all. Luckily, a piece of C4 that had not been detonated was found in the ruins of the Liang family, and Kenji Dohi Enji was like a treasure, and while reporting this time to Nishio Shouzo, he dispatched a transfer plane to escort this C4 back to Japan on the same day.

Kenji was not very interested in the 9mm pistol shells that his assistants had found in the ruins of the Liang family, but his assistants had come up with a new situation. "The weapons used by the attackers to kill the Liang family were weapons that used 9 mm bullets, and according to the clues we have had, most of the 9 mm bullets were pistols or submachine guns from European countries. Based on our on-site investigation of the bodies, we concluded that the attacker must have used a European pistol, from which we can temporarily infer that the attacker may have had a stay in Europe. ”

The attack was carried out with a Euro-caliber pistol, so it is inferred that the attacker had traveled to or lived in Europe, and Kenji Doga, who was the head of the agency, also agreed with this inference. Because there are many young Zhuang officers in the Chinese army who have studied in Germany, and the famous Luger pistol is a 9 mm caliber, it should not be difficult for the Chinese officers who studied in Germany to bring back a few Luger pistols from Germany.

"As for the airport, we have not yet collected satisfactory clues, and based on the situation at the scene and the traces left, we can only infer that the attacker used a long-range weapon with a caliber of no less than 120 mm, and our tendency is that the attacker used a heavy mortar." The assistant's next words made Kenji Dohi frown, there are also heavy mortars in the Japanese army, but Kenji Dohi also knows that there is no so-called heavy mortar weighing less than 150 kg. If the attackers used heavy mortars to attack two airfields, what if they managed to quickly divert these heavy mortars?

"Just as you suspected, Commander, we can't believe that a heavy mortar of 129 mm caliber should have at least 200 kilograms, and if the attackers are too small in number, it will be difficult to hide and move it quickly." When Kenji Dohi's assistant estimated the 120mm heavy mortar, he was based on the weight of the Japanese Type 97 90mm mortar, and the 90mm mortar equipped by the Japanese army weighed 172 kilograms, so he estimated that the weight of the Type 64 120mm mortar used by Zhuo Fei should be close to 200 kilograms.

The weapons used to attack the two airfields became an unresolved problem, but according to the traces left in the two airfields, the attackers used a powerful long-range firepower weapon, and if the Chinese army was equipped with such a long-range firepower weapon, then the Imperial army would be in great trouble, because the assistants of Dohi Yuanxian's second-hand subordinates analyzed that the range of this long-range firepower weapon would be at least 4,000 meters.

Naturally, the losses were huge, not only was Liang Hongzhi, who was supported by the Japanese army, wiped out, but also other members of the provisional government who attended the party at Liang's house that night were also killed, and the Japanese army's plan to use the provisional government to control the whole city was on the verge of bankruptcy. All the warplanes at the Dajiaoba and Tushan airfields were destroyed, and the pilots were also killed or wounded, especially the fuel reserves at the Dajiaoba airfield were all wiped out, and even the garrison troops stationed at the airport were also seriously reduced.

First, an airport on the outskirts of Xinyang that was about to be abandoned was attacked, and the attackers not only destroyed the entire airport, but also shot and killed the imperial soldiers who stayed at the airport and rushed to the airport to rescue. Less than three days later, Wuhan's Nanhu airfield was similarly attacked, this time using a large-caliber infantry weapon. After that, the Wuhan dock was similarly attacked, and a large number of ships were sunk. Now that Nanjing has been attacked again, Enji Dohi is convinced that these things must have an inevitable relationship.

While sending out capable garrisons to continue to investigate the scene, Kenji took the rest of the people to analyze the various actions of the attackers, and they did not even let go of the car that Zhuo Fei stole twice to investigate and analyze. "I don't think the attackers were the regular army of China." One of Kenji Dohihara's subordinates expressed a different opinion, "We can already see some suspicions from the scene at Nanhu Airport, according to the recollection of the airport guards afterwards, the attacker who directly attacked the airport was always only one person, and the weapons used by this person were not at all consistent with the weapons deployed by the Shina army. ”

"Secondly, while the attacker was trapped by the airport garrison using mortars, another attacker appeared outside the airport, and it was at this time that large-caliber weapons appeared that we had been unable to identify. According to the information we obtained from the inn at the pier, the attackers were gradually identified as two young people from China, which is consistent with the after-the-fact recollection of the soldiers in the attack on Nanhu Airport, and of course, we now have their portraits. ”

"Yamada, what exactly do you want to say?" Kenji Tsuchihi was a little impatient when he heard this, so he interrupted the other party's words.

"Chief, what I want to say is that the other party is in the dark and we are in the dark, no matter how we prevent it, the attacker will still strike when he should act, and we know that the attacker has been running around committing crimes, which is very unfavorable to us." Yamada said this, took a map of China and opened it on the table, reached out and grabbed a red pen and made some marks on the map.

"Chief, please see, Xinyang, Wuhan, and Nanjing have all seen the shadow of the attacker, and the only thing we can be sure of at present is that the attacker is two people, and they are equipped with new weapons. Now that the attackers have left Nanking, and we cannot be sure whether they are heading north or south, I have a suggestion that not only can we avoid wasting too much manpower and material resources of the Imperial army searching for them, but we can also capture these two attackers alive with leisure. ”

After receiving the signal from Kenji Dohi, Yamada continued, "The Shina people are outsiders, but they are good at internal fighting, and in the occupied areas of the Empire, there are many Shina people who are willing to serve the Empire, and among these Shina people, there are their so-called Jianghu people. We can offer a reward to these Jianghu people in the name of the Tufei Yuan Agency, and I believe that these Jianghu people in China will play a decisive role in capturing the two attackers. ”

Yamada's suggestion made Kenji Dohi suddenly cheerful, yes, there are many Shina people in the occupied area who are willing to serve the empire, and the tone consumes manpower and material resources like looking for a needle in a haystack to capture those two attackers, it is better to let the Shina people help deal with the attackers. Kenji Dohi Enji immediately reported the plan to Nishio Shouzo, and after obtaining Nishio Shouzo's approval, many gangs along the Yangtze River received the portraits of Zhuo Fei and the two and the high bounty offered by Tohi Yuan.
