It is true that the troops of the Yamashiro government's 9th theater of operations continued to retreat under the attack of the Japanese 11th Army, and there was no determination to resist to the death at all, but there were still individual examples.

For example, the Shancheng government troops defending Changning, south of Hengzhou and west of Xiaoxiang, are the 178th Regiment of the 60th Infantry Division of the 37th Army of the 27th Group Army of the Kuomintang Army, with an establishment of only more than 800 people, and the baggage troops of the 39th Army are about 400 people.

Since the battle with the 68th Wing of the 3rd Division of the Japanese Army on September 3, this regiment has been fighting bravely, although the Japanese army used artillery and aviation to cooperate, launched many fierce attacks, but by the 10th could not capture Changning.

The 11th Army's heavy attack was carried out in a multi-pronged manner of direct coordination, and the density of firepower was much greater than before, and the defenders in various places suffered heavy casualties, and the commander of the 79th Army, General Wang, died a heroic death on 7 September.

But the battle exposed more problems, as Lieutenant General Mitsuo Yamamoto of the 3rd Division ordered the 34th Wing to attack Xiaoxiang Airfield, which the U.S. Air Force had used to bomb Japanese airfields.

The wing launched a sneak attack on the airport at 12 o'clock in the evening, and when the airport was occupied by the Japanese, there were still defenders who did not get up.

After occupying Xiaoxiang, the 3rd Division continued its offensive against Jianghua, and on 12 July, the division intercepted 20 civilian boats at the mouth of the Mujiang River, and in addition to a large number of weapons and ammunition, it also captured three of the latest American-made antitank guns.

The 13th Division's attack on the Yamashiro government's troops was even more outrageous, and after the opponent retreated, three ammunition depots were discovered, one of which was destroyed, and the remaining two completely fell into the hands of the enemy.

All of the above signs show that the management of the Shancheng government's army is chaotic and military discipline is lax, and the logistical dispatch is full of loopholes, and the coordination of the troops is very problematic.

"Mingxiang, you've been a little listless in the past few days since you came back, what happened?" Wang Zhen looked at Chen Mingxiang, who was lazily lying under the tree to enjoy the shade, and asked.

This guy stayed in Jinling for a few days, and after returning to Shanghai, he was too lazy to move, and he was not as active in contacting Japanese generals as before, she thought it was strange, this is not like Chen Mingxiang's style?

"The current situation is already obvious, the next step of the Japanese Eleventh Army is definitely to attack Guizhou and Liuzhou, the twenty-third army is marching into Wuzhou, and then the ultimate goal is Greentown, connecting the north and south of the whole of China, and sending troops and supplies to the French Indochina region through this communication artery."

"What I see, the Military Commission must also see, besides, we do not have an intelligence group in the Gui Province area, and the source of information can only be obtained through the senior generals of the Japanese army, and the timeliness is discounted, and the Shancheng government is defeated like a mountain, no matter how accurate the information I provide, what is the use?"

"Don't worry, the new head of the Mei organ, Yazaki Kanten, is coming to the headquarters of the Shanghai market, I have made an appointment with him to have dinner at home tomorrow, and Yoshitaro Kawamoto will also be there, what I want to pay attention to is the movement of the 13th Army." Chen Mingxiang picked up a cigarette and lit one a little angrily.

He was not passive and slacking off, but after the Japanese army entered Gui Province, it had already exceeded the territory of the direct station. His hand had not yet reached the territory of Gui Province, where the Greentown Station of the Military Command Bureau was in charge, and his people had a deep foundation in the local area and had a good grasp of the movements of the Japanese army in a timely manner.

The directly subordinate station has now become a monster of the Military Command Bureau, and the sphere of influence has expanded a little too much, and Central China, North China, and Guanwai have all the occupied areas, and as long as there are Japanese troops, there are intelligence officers of the directly subordinate stations.

In the first stage, the Japanese North China Front launched an attack on the Guotong area of Henan Province, but because of the unfavorable collection of intelligence, the stationmaster of Luoyang Station was removed by Boss Dai. In the second stage, the Japanese army fought in Hunan Province, and the information of the directly subordinate station was accurate and timely, which provoked Boss Dai to be furious and removed the stationmaster of Tanzhou Station.

These two provincial stations are both big stations, and the characters who can be the stationmasters are also the old qualifications of the secret service period, Chen Mingxiang is not afraid, but feels that the limelight is too big, and it will definitely not have a good effect on the future!

"Isn't it time to deliver food to the concentration camp tonight? If we don't stretch out our hands, there will be more people starving to death inside, which violates Boss Dai's instructions, but the embassies of Britain, the United States and the Netherlands in the mountain city pay us every month, and the proportion is increased. Wang Zhen said.

The U.S. Embassy, which used to provide $20 a month to more than 1,300 of its country's 1,300 expatriates detained in Shanghai, has now been raised to $50.

The British embassy, which used to provide ten pounds a month to nearly six thousand expatriates in the country, has now become fifty dollars, an increase of a few dollars.

In the past, the Dutch government provided $50 a month to more than 150 expatriates in the country, but now it has increased to $80 a month.

This adds up to more than $300,000 a month, and it has to be settled every month, and there is no credit, and the governments of the three countries have paid more than $6 million for these people in the past two years.

Chen Mingxiang certainly can't put this money in his pocket, he needs a piece of grain to buy grain, especially the high-priced coarse grain on the black market, and he has to make connections with the gendarmerie, especially these gendarmes who are in charge of guarding the concentration camps, they can get the so-called "subsidies" every month, so that the foreign nationals in the concentration camps will not live too miserably.

Even so, Chen Mingxiang can at least lose more than four million US dollars from it, which is his most stable income, of course, this guy doesn't have much concept of money, and it is all in Wang Zhen's hands.

"I almost forgot about it, but you reminded me in time, so I called someone to prepare coarse noodles, pickles, salt and cane sugar, cigarettes and tea, and a carton of milk powder. Boxes of chocolate, coffee, sugar cubes and canned food from Yamashiro were also packed, a luxury for the Japanese military police. ”

"You go with me, get acquainted with these foreign expatriates, it will be helpful for you to go abroad in the future, and there will always be some special treatment for the benefactors who send charcoal in the snow, at least you can have a few more friends to talk to." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.

Wang Zhen is a woman who attaches great importance to her family, and the most precious thing in her life is her family, and she has always wanted to live abroad, not that she admires foreign countries, but she feels that the war will continue for a long time.

If you want to go abroad, these foreign nationals are the foundation of your future life, and you have to find some help to live in a foreign country with your children.

"This seems to be the first time you have responded positively to my plan, why, I finally wanted to open up, and I was willing to let me and my children go abroad?" Wang Zhen said happily.
