Seishiro Itagaki took a nap in the break room, then immediately got up again and went to the war room.

Seeing Itagaki Seishiro walking in, Aoki Shigesei immediately stepped forward and immediately reported: "Your Excellency Commander, I have just received an urgent telegram from the military police left behind in the four counties of Baoshan, Qingpu, Jiading and Songjiang, and the patrol battalion has indeed divided its troops to attack from all sides, and there is at least one regiment of thousands of people in each direction!" ”

Seishiro Itagaki nodded when he heard this, indicating that he understood.

For this matter, Itagaki has long been mentally prepared

In fact, yesterday, Itagaki thought that the patrol camp would attack from all sides, but the patrol camp did not, and even did not send troops during the day today, but finally sent troops after evening.

Aoki Shigesei said again: "Your Excellency, Commander, with the garrison forces of Qingpu, Baoshan, Jiading and Songjiang counties, they will definitely not be able to hold it, so you see, do you want them to withdraw to Jiaxing and Kunshan?" ”

"Well, let's withdraw then." Itagaki nodded and said, "The 20th Division and the 7th Division will have to wait at least ten days before they can arrive in Shanghai, and it is absolutely impossible for a few gendarmerie units to hold Baoshan and other four counties for ten days, so this kind of holding on is actually meaningless, and it is better to preserve strength." ”

"Hello." Aoki slammed his head, and was about to turn around to leave, but a communications staff officer hurriedly walked over.

"Your Excellency the Commander, Your Excellency the Chief of Staff!" The communications staff officer paused heavily, then handed over the folder in his hand and said loudly, "The Nakamura organ is urgent!" ”

"Nani, Nakamura Agency?!"

"Is the Nakamura agency still there?"

Seishiro Itagaki and Shigesei Aoki were stunned when they heard this.

In fact, not long after the Ninth Division was completely annihilated, the Nakamura organ also lost contact, and Itagaki Seishiro and Aoki Shigesei thought that the Nakamura organ had also let the patrol camp end, after all, Jiangwan was on the edge of the city, and it was reasonable for the patrol camp to take advantage of the victory to pursue the Nakamura organ.

At the end of the day, there are only a few hundred people in the Nakamura agency.

Even with the addition of the 76th agent, there are less than a thousand people.

At that time, Seishiro Itagaki and Shigesei Aoki were just a little strange, why didn't the Nakamura agency send a farewell telegram?

But I didn't expect that the Nakamura organ had not been lost? At that moment, Aoki Shigesei hurriedly took the folder, unfolded it, and looked at it at a glance.

After reading it, Shigesei Aoki said to Seishiro Itagaki: "Your Excellency, it turns out that the Nakamura organ lost contact, not because it was attacked by the patrol camp, but because the telephone line was cut and the radio happened to be out of order, and now the radio station has been repaired, so quickly send us a telegram to report their latest situation." ”

"I see." Seishiro Itagaki suddenly said, "How are they doing now?" Have you been attacked? ”

"Yes." Shigesei Aoki nodded and said, "The night before yesterday, after the Ninth Division was heavily damaged, the patrol battalion divided a small force to attack Jiangwan, but it was repelled by the gendarmerie of the Nakamura agency and the two special teams of the 76th, and Nakamura-kun also reported another news. ”

Itagaki Seishiro said, "What's the news?" ”

Aoki Shigesei said: "News about Liang San. ”

"Liang Sang? Liang Hongzhi? Itagaki Seishiro was stunned and said, "Is there a problem with Liang Hongzhi?" ”

Aoki snorted, shook his head and said, "Your Excellency Commander, it's not Liang Hongzhi, it's Liang Wuyi!" ”

"Liang Wuyi?!" Itagaki Seishiro's eyes immediately turned cold, and he said in a deep voice, "What news?" ”

Aoki Shigesei said in a deep voice: "Nakamura-kun's telegram said that Liang Wuyi is not an undercover agent of the Communist Party, and the real undercover agent is his master surnamed Wang, and this master surnamed Wang is an underground member of the Communist Party of China!" With Liang Wuyi's trust in him, he quietly developed a large number of party members in the Broadway Building, and basically controlled the second and third teams of the Broadway Building. ”

"Nani? And this kind of thing? Itagaki Seishiro frowned and said, "Then where was Liang Wuyi at that time?" ”

Aoki Shigesei said: "Long before the patrol camp besieged the Sixing warehouse, Liang Wuyi fell for Master Wang's plot and was imprisoned in a secret dungeon in the Broadway Building. ”

After a pause, Aoki Shigesei said hatefully, "In this case, everything will be explained!" No wonder the three thousand national troops suddenly appeared in the Sixing warehouse, and the people who dared to love the Broadway Mansion did not execute those Nationalists at all, but secretly concealed them, and the patrol camp besieged the Bund Garden on three sides, just to force the Imperial Navy to take the remnants of the Broadway Building on board, Baga Yalu, such a clever calculation! ”

"Not really, right?" Seishiro Itagaki frowned and said, "According to the report of the Navy at that time, the patrol camp and the Broadway building fought extremely fiercely in Sichuan Road Bridge and Bund Garden, and there were two or three thousand dead. ”

Aoki Shigesei flicked the telegram and said, "Regarding this, Nakamura-kun also mentioned it on the telegram. ”

After a pause, Aoki Shigesei said again: "The secret of this is still provided by Liang Wuyi, Liang Wuyi said that long before the start of the Shanghai Campaign, Master Wang had suggested to him to recruit a large number of hooligans of the Green Gang, in case of need, these Green Gang hooligans can be used as cannon fodder!" ”

"Cannon fodder!" Seishiro Itagaki understood it all at once.

"Yaga!" Itagaki Seishiro said hatefully, "Cunning Communists! ”

"Your Excellency, Commander, in this case, everything will be explained!" Shigesei Aoki paused when he said this, and then continued, "However, after all, this is just one side of Nakamura Jun's words, and no one dares to guarantee whether he was deceived by Liang Wuyi?" Therefore, it is recommended to send someone to investigate! ”

Itagaki Seishiro thought for a while and said: "Nakamura Jun is not from an intelligence background, so he may be deceived, but Kagesa Zhenzhao is an old intelligence, he shouldn't be deceived by others, what does Kagesa-kun say?" ”

Aoki Shigesei sighed and said, "Your Excellency Commander, Kagesak-kun is missing. ”

"Missing?" Seishiro Itagaki frowned and asked, "What's going on?" ”

Shigesei Aoki said: "I suspect that it is very likely that Kagesa-kun has already discovered that there is a problem with the Broadway Building, but when he was about to investigate further, he was discovered by the Communist Party, so he was killed by the Communist Party!" ”

"Extinguish?" Seishiro Itagaki frowned and said, "Aoki-kun, do you think this is possible?" ”

Aoki Shigesei shook his head and said, "Your Excellency Commander, don't forget, Xu Rui has a wolf tooth army under him!" ”

"Wolf Tooth Troops?!" Itagaki Seishiro suddenly felt a pang in his heart when he heard this, how could he forget that Xu Rui had a wolf tooth army under him? When he was in Jiujiang, he almost died at the hands of the wolf's fang, and his predecessor Okamura Ningji, didn't he die at the hands of the wolf's tooth army? If it's a wolf's fang, he really has the ability to kill Shadow Zuo Zhenzhao quietly.

At that moment, Itagaki Seishiro said: "Then send someone to go, who do you think is appropriate?" ”

Aoki Shigecheng said in a deep voice: "I think that this matter is none other than Little Dog-kun!" ”

Seishiro Itagaki nodded and said, "That's Inushiro!" ”

"Hello!" Aoki paused heavily and turned to go.

(Dividing Line)

In Tokyo, the War Department.

Shouichi Terauchi was hospitalized, and in the recent eventful period, this old devil found an excuse to hide in the hospital, so in the past few days, the work of the War Department has actually been presided over by Hideki Tojo.

At this time, Hideki Tojo was summoning more than a dozen combat staff officers in the combat section to revise the plan.

Because half an hour ago, the headquarters of the 12th Army just reported back an important piece of information: Jiangwan has not yet been lost!

This is undoubtedly a major benefit for the Japanese army, because Jiangwan is not only located in the northern suburbs of downtown Shanghai, which can act as a barrier for Baoshan County and Jiading County in the north, making it more difficult for the patrol battalion to attack these two counties, and there is also a military airport converted from a racetrack in Jiangwan!

This is undoubtedly very important for the upcoming Shanghai sweeping operation!

Because with the help of the military airfield in Jiangwan, the Japanese army can quickly transfer supplies!

That is to say, with Jiangwan as the fulcrum, the Japanese army can directly send manpower and material resources to the northern suburbs of Shanghai, and then directly attack the downtown area of Shanghai, which greatly compresses the defensive depth of the patrol camp, on the contrary, if there is no Jiangwan, the northern Baoshan County and Jiading County will not be able to be saved.

If this is the case, after the 7th and 20th Divisions arrive in Shanghai, they must re-follow the old road of the first Battle of Songhu, rush to land in the area of the Lion Forest, and then advance southward little by little, which will give the patrol battalion a very huge defensive depth, which will inevitably increase the difficulties of the Japanese army and increase the casualties of the Japanese army.

Another problem cannot but be worried about is that the mobilization capacity of the Communist Party is much stronger than that of the Kuomintang!

During the First Battle of Songhu, it was the Kuomintang that controlled Shanghai, but now it is the Communist Party that controls Shanghai, and if the Communist Party is given enough time, it will be possible for them to organize the manpower and material resources of Shanghai and several surrounding counties, and the difficulty of reoccupying Shanghai will increase exponentially!

Therefore, the strategic fulcrum of Jiangwan must not be lost!

"Plans have changed!" At that moment, Hideki Tojo slapped the case heavily, and said in a deep voice, "Immediately call the headquarters of the 12th Army and order the 12th Army to immediately send an infantry brigade to Jiangwan Town by air to strengthen the defense of Jiangwan!" Then the 20th Division was called, the original order was canceled, and they were ordered to board the ship from the port of Incheon immediately! ”
