Chapter 562: The Battle Triggered by the Bombing

On the morning of the second day after the incident, Chen Mingxiang and Goto Shigeraga drove a truck from the Military Police Headquarters to deliver Nanzao Yunzi's coffin to the army's transport ship, which was loaded with rice and grain plundered from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui.

Chen Mingxiang smoked a cigar and watched the transport ship slowly leave the port and slowly disappear from sight.

In the second half of the 28th year of the Republic of China, after graduating from the secret training class of the Qingpu Special Training Class of the Qimen Military Command Bureau, he met with Nanzao Yunzi on the first day of his mission in Shanghai.

To the present April of the 31st year of the Republic of China, this task actually took more than two years, but fortunately, he did not live up to Boss Dai's expectations and successfully completed the task.

"Commissioner Chen, you can come, hurry up and get me out, I don't want to stay here for a day!" When Lin Zhijiang saw Chen Mingxiang, he actually cried with a handful of snot and tears.

Wearing tattered clothes, his nose and face are swollen, his eye sockets are deep and he is sleep-deprived, his face is extremely haggard, and he is almost out of shape.

"How did you become like this? I remember the minister said to the special high school, please take extra care of you? Chen Mingxiang said "surprised".

"Take care of a fart, when he heard that I had a connection with the military commander, he immediately turned his face and denied anyone, and wanted to kill me, I only understand now that he did the poisoning of Wu Sibao!"

"Don't you know, it's pouring chili pepper water again, sitting in the electric chair, and it's almost a soldering iron whip, this is a precursor to my life, if you come two days late, I'm afraid you won't be able to see me!" Lin Zhijiang hated it so much that his teeth hurt.

I knew this was the case, why bother in the first place!

Chen Mingxiang knows that Lin Zhijiang is different from Wan Lilang, although the latter is not very old, but his mind is completely an old fox, and Lin Zhijiang, to put it bluntly, is a simple-minded rammer with developed limbs, greedy for money, lustful and murderous, and his notoriety is second only to Wu Sibao in Shanghai.

Such a person's thinking is also very simple, he thinks that he has not colluded with the military commanders, and he can't find evidence in the special high school, as long as Li Shiqun is willing to contribute, he can bail himself out a long time ago.

The key is that Li Shiqun is accustomed to crossing the river and demolishing bridges, and he has always been uneasy about himself, believing that the traitors of the military command are not as reliable as the traitors of the Central Union, so he wants to use the hands of the Japanese to dispose of himself.

"Don't worry, I've already said hello to the special high class just now, and there will be no more torture in the future, but if you want to be released on bail, you have to wait, the head of the Nanzao section was assassinated by the military commander, and when the special high class was on fire, no one could intercede."

"In a few days, I'll tell the minister, let's work together to rescue you, you are really a nest, you can meet the military commander when you do some business, blame yourself for your back!" Chen Mingxiang said.

Lin Zhijiang can have a grudge against Li Shiqun for this, it would be really good, Lin Zhijiang is Li Shiqun's opponent, sooner or later he will have to die in the hands of Li Shiqun.

"Chen Jun, Goto-kun is looking for you, please go to the general's office immediately!" said the head of the prison's gendarmerie squad.

What is there to find Chen Mingxiang in Kinoshita Sakae? Japan was bombed by American bombers!

What about Chen Mingxiang? The troops are about to fight, and Huatong Trading Company has to supply military supplies!

With the Japanese army's wanton plunder, rice and flour did not need Chen Mingxiang to consider, but salt, sugar, cigarettes and other materials had to go through his hands, and now the field units of the 13th Army, officers and above, all smoke his Bund brand cigarettes, which is also a kind of welfare.

"At half past three o'clock in the afternoon of the 18th, 16 US bombers raided Japan and bombed 10 military and industrial targets in Tokyo, two in Yokohama, one each in Yokosuka, Nagoya, Kobe, and Osaka.

"This sudden bombing also caused great shock to the imperial government and the base camp, and serious doubts were raised about the air defense capability, and the US bombers were able to bomb major Japanese cities in broad daylight without fighter escort, and not a single one of them was shot down, and there was already a great hidden danger to the security of the homeland."

"In order to prevent the air forces of China and the United States from using the airfields in Zhejiang Province to bomb the mainland, the base camp decided to launch a large-scale campaign, with the 13th Army as the main force and some troops of the 11th Army as the auxiliary, to destroy the air bases and airfields on the Zhejiang-Jiangxi line."

"This is the original detailed list of materials, which was issued by the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army to the Military Police Command, and the Huatong Trading Company was designated to be responsible for part of the supply of materials for all combat troops.

"The plan will begin to be implemented in May, the specific time is not yet clear, and you must complete the targets of the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army by May 10." Major General Kinoshita Eichi said.

"Your Excellency General, time is a little tight, it is very difficult to prepare so many supplies in twenty days." Chen Mingxiang said with a frown.

Seeing that this guy received such a large order, but he didn't look happy, Kinoshita Rongshi also knew the reason, not that Chen Mingxiang couldn't get it, and there was no problem with twice as much, the key is that no one wants to do the business of flat in and out.

Supplying supplies to the imperial army is a very disadvantaged thing, which refers to the army, and the Huatong Trading Company needs to trade at cost price, not to mention making money at all, and it would be good if it didn't lose money.

"The price is set by the Central China Liaison Department of the Xingya Academy, and they also settle with you, so many pairs of eyes are staring at it, I don't dare to increase your profits if I want to increase your profits, bear with it first, I'll talk to General Taiji Ota to see if I can subsidize the savings coupons." Kinoshita Eichi said.

Huatong Trading Company has no money to make, so it delays the monthly dividends, but Kinoshita Sakae City has nothing to do, this is an order from the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army, and it can be done, and it must be done if it is not worked.

Although the value of the reserve bonds is unstable, it can be regarded as a little purchasing power in the early stage of issuance, and Chen Mingxiang also knows that it is not easy to raise the price.

"Bureau, Mingyue sent a telegram that in view of the fact that the US Air Force has bombed the Japanese mainland, in order to sweep away the close threat, the Japanese army will launch the Zhejiang-Jiangxi operation in mid-May, with the aim of destroying the air bases and airfields on the Zhejiang-Jiangxi line and preventing the US Air Force from bombing again."

"This large-scale operation will mobilize the main force of the 13th Army of the Japanese Army and part of the 11th Army, and at present, the divisions and regiments under the 13th Army have begun pre-war preparations."

"According to the deployment of materials, the participating troops are the 15th Division, the 22nd Division, the 70th Division and the 116th Division of the 13th Army, as well as the 33rd Division of the 11th Army, and the specific number of troops is unknown for the time being." Mao Renfeng said with the message.
