The defenders resisted stubbornly for five days and nights, and on the night of the 30th, they were forced to retreat to the south bank of the river.

At dawn on April 2, the Japanese army, supported by heavy artillery fire, forced its way across the new wall and advanced southward.

The Kamimura detachment landed in Yingtian near the mouth of the Miluo River and formed a flanking attack on the 15th Army; The 33rd Division moved south from Maishi in an attempt to wipe out the Chinese army in northern Hunan Province.

The 15th Group Army resisted the Japanese army based on the positions of the Xinqiang River and the Miluo River, and after inflicting heavy losses on the Japanese army, it withdrew to the south bank of the Miluo River on the 3rd.

On the 5th, the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government telegraphed the 9th Theater of Operations to fight a decisive battle with the main Japanese army near Changsha. The armies immediately entered and occupied positions in accordance with the order, flanking and ambushing the Japanese troops.

By the 9th, the 6th Division had retreated to the Xinqiang River; The 33rd Division withdrew to Tongcheng; The Nara detachment retreated to Tsujo.

In the pursuit of the whole line, the Chinese army regained Pingjiang, Nanjiang Bridge and other towns.

As of April 13, the battle of Hunan, Jiangxi and Hubei ended. The Chinese army held back the momentum of the Japanese offensive and created a stalemate in the battle.

The reason why such achievements can be achieved is inseparable from Zhou Lin's contribution.

The battle plan of the Japanese army provided by Zhou Lin gave the old man a knowing of the intentions of the Japanese army in advance, so that he could take effective resistance to the actions of the Japanese army.

Since the Chinese army adopted the tactics of defending and then counterattacking, and won the battle in the midst of danger, the Japanese military did not suspect that the information on this battle had been leaked.

Today, Zhou Lin drove Xiangjun to Smith's office.

Smith warmly served coffee and cigarettes. This guy is now following the locals and smoking cigarettes.

Xiangjun was accustomed to listening to music, while Zhou Lin and Smith were talking.

"Did you deposit the money I asked you to deposit?" Zhou Lin asked.

"Grass! It was deposited 10 days ago, and your friend didn't receive a notice from the United States? Smith asked curiously.

"I didn't ask him, I don't know if he received the message." Zhou Lin hadn't seen Yoshikawa for a while, so he didn't know his situation.

Smith pulled out a deposit certificate: "Give this to him." I went to the Bank of America in Macau to help him deposit it. ”

Zhou Lin took the deposit voucher and put it with him: "What do you say about stealing 500 tons of ore?" ”

"We only paid 80 percent of the original price for the 500 tons stolen." Smith said.

"No! You're 20 percent of the selling price, which is outrageous. Originally, the profit of mineral stone was only 20%, you eat it all at once, let us help you do things for free, you dream! ”

Smith's eyes rolled: "Our foreign cargo ships enter the Yangtze River, and there are many charges along the way, if you use cargo ships to transport them yourself, you will save a lot of costs." I'll let it go again, fifteen percent. ”

Zhou Lin shook his head vigorously, but he didn't agree, and in the end, the two bargained, and finally reached an agreement - eight percent, and Zhou Lin wanted to take one percent in the middle.

Smith stared at Zhou Lin like an enemy, eager to bite Zhou Lin.

"Don't stare at yourself and don't look at others. How many people do you have to take along the way to transport it out of Chongqing? You know it! We just take a little advantage in the management fee of the outer wheel and the inner wheel, and it is estimated that you will take 8 percent, and the rest is about 7 percent. So many people are a point, and everyone is pitiful. Zhou Lin cried poorly.

Smith looked at Zhou Lin in disbelief: "You really didn't lie to me?" ”

Zhou Lin shook his head, but said in his heart: I don't lie to you? So how do I make money? Please Baidu "Throw Book Network" Thank you for your support!
