On September 8, Zhou Lin received a call from Shunichi Yoshikawa, so he ordered a few dishes from the banquet building and sent them to the hospital.

"I brought the dishes from the banquet hall that you want to eat." When Zhou Lin entered, a doctor was examining Shunichi Yoshikawa.

"Can't drink!" The doctor left the room with a smile.

Seeing that the doctor was gone, Yoshikawa immediately asked, "Did you get the money back?" ”

Zhou Lin shook his head: "I found them, saying that it was the responsibility of Chongqing, and it had nothing to do with us, although the plan was invalidated......"

Yoshikawa immediately glared: "Who said the plan was invalidated?" ”

Zhou Lin Yileng: "Not wasted? Imperial army or with the original plan? ”

Yoshikawa nodded: "The battle order from the headquarters has been issued. It's basically the same battle plan, but some deceptive actions were made in the early stage. ”

Zhou Lin immediately asked, "When will the battle start?" ”

Yoshikawa looked at his watch: "Tomorrow morning starts at seven o'clock." ”

Zhou Lin smiled: "As long as tomorrow's battle starts and proves that our intelligence is good, then we have to ask them to make up the money." You eat slowly, and I have to go to him quickly, tell him about it, and bring him the money. ”

With that, Zhou Lin hurriedly left the ward.

Passing by a small shop selling cigarettes, Zhou Lin entered.

"Director Zhou, please be seated!" The owner of the small shop knew Zhou Lin.

"Just now in the hospital, the cigarettes on my body were snatched away. Are there American cigarettes? Zhou Lin looked at the cigarette cabinet and asked.

"Coincidentally, last week someone from the city government asked me to sell an American cigarette." The boss said, "I know someone from the city government."

"Sell it to me!" Zhou Lin stretched out his hand.

"Upstairs, I'll get it!" The boss hurried upstairs.

Zhou Lin immediately dialed the phone number of Yang Kun Tea House.

Yang Kun was there, and it was him who answered the phone: "May I ask which one it is." ”

"Cousin, I'll sell fish right away." Zhou Lin put down the phone after speaking.

Three minutes after Zhou Lin put down the phone, the boss brought a cigarette.

After Zhou Lin bought cigarettes, he drove towards Suzhou Creek Park.

Entering the park, Zhou Lin watched the scenery all the way and walked in front of the statue of the fisherwoman.

Yang Kun was waiting for him in front of the statue of the fisherwoman: "What an urgent matter." ”

"The Japanese launched the second Changsha operation plan on September 9." Zhou Lin said.

"What's the plan?" Yang Kun asked eagerly.

"It's still the plan we got originally, but we did some deceptive actions in the early stage, and the time started at seven o'clock." Zhou Lin took out a cigarette and lit it.

After lighting the cigarette, Zhou Lin already felt that Yang Kun had left.

Yang Kun had indeed left, and he went to another dark room.

In the dark room, Yang Kun sent a special urgent telegram to Dai Li.

Dai Li, who had received the telegram, hurried to the old man.

After reading the telegram, the old man smiled and said, "This is the smoke spread by the Japanese." ”

As a result, the telegram was reduced to ashes.

However, what happened later made the old man regret it more than once.

On September 9, 1941, the Second Battle of Changsha finally broke out at seven o'clock.

First of all, the prelude battle planned by the Japanese was the battle in the Daeunsan area.

Dayun Mountain is located a few kilometers north of the Xinqiang River, 960 meters above sea level, is one of the important advance positions of the Ninth Theater of Operations, the top of the hill is garrisoned by a reinforced battalion of the 4th Army, its west side is the 306th Regiment of the 102nd Division of the 4th Army, and the east side is an infantry battalion of the new 11th Division of the 58th Army.

Before the battle, the defenders constantly sent small units to attack the rear of the Japanese army, destroying their transportation facilities.

In order to prepare for the "plus operation" and cover the concentration of its main force to the north of the Xinqiang River, and to occupy a large river crossing area, the Japanese 11th Army ordered the 6th Division, which was originally garrisoned in the Yueyang area, to sweep Dayun Mountain and remove the threat from this flank.

On the morning of 9 September, the 23rd and 45th Wings of the 6th Division, with the support of aviation, launched an attack from Zhongfang to Yanling and Zhanjiaqiao on the north side of Dayun Mountain.

Its 13th Wing attacked the west side of Dayun Mountain and engaged in a fierce battle with the defending 102nd Division.

At this time, the Chinese 27th Army discovered that the 40th Division of the Japanese Army in the Xianning area of southern Hubei was moving to northern Hunan, and judged that it was a change of defense with the 6th Division, and the Japanese army's attack on Dayun Mountain was a routine offensive before the change of defense.

Therefore, at 18 o'clock on the 9th, he ordered the 4th Army to secure Dayun Mountain, ordered the 58th Army to send troops to fight with the 4th Army, and ordered the 20th Army to prepare to attack the Japanese army from Tongcheng to the west, and take advantage of the Japanese army's change of defense to strike at it.

From September 9 to 10, 1941, the main force of the Japanese 6th Division continued to attack the east side of Dayun Mountain.

On the 10th, the main force of the 6th Division believed that it had completed the sweeping mission, withdrew from Dayun Mountain, and assembled in the direction of Taolin, while its 13th Wing was blocked by the Chinese 102nd Division and the 1st Division of the 59th Division near Gantian and Tuanshan slopes, and fell into a bitter battle.

On the same day, the Chinese 58th Division regained the Dayunshan position, and the 60th Division of the 37th Army, which reinforced Dayunshan, had also arrived on the battlefield, and the 27th Army then ordered the newly formed 10th, 59th, and 60th Divisions to surround and annihilate the Japanese troops in front of them, and the attack was scheduled to begin at dawn the next day.

On the 11th, when these three divisions were fighting fiercely with the 13th Wing, the Shigesong Detachment of the 40th Division of the Japanese Army (composed of one infantry wing) that had advanced westward from Xianning rushed to Gantian and took the 13th Wing to withdraw to Straw Shoe Ridge.

From the 12th to the 14th, the Chinese army continued to attack the Chongsong detachment, and the two sides fought each other in a narrow area on the slopes of Gantian and Tuanshan, with heavy casualties.

At this time, the Ninth Theater had not yet determined the Japanese army's intention to attack Changsha, and still believed that the Japanese army's attack on Gantian north of Yanglin Street was a cover for its retreat.

Xue Yue called the old man on the 14th, saying: The Japanese army "swept my Dayun Mountain, and then crossed the Xinqiang River to the south to disturb it." After judging that the enemy had made the 33rd Division retreat when it was on the high ground, it was a trick to retreat."

On the 15th, the Japanese army was reinforced by the Araki detachment, which had just arrived from northern Jiangxi, and the battle was extremely fierce. At this time, the Ninth Theater found that the Japanese army had more than four divisions and regiments gathered in northern Hunan Province, and found that the Japanese army was about to launch a large-scale attack on Changsha, so it ordered the main force of the 27th Army to move south of the Xinqiang River, and the battle of Dayun Mountain came to an end.

At this time, the military top brass in Chongqing understood the intentions of the Japanese.

"! The battle in the area of Dayun Mountain in small Japan was intended to cover the build-up of troops attacking Changsha, and we were fooled. The old man was so angry that he threw the glass of water in his hand to the ground.

All the people did not dare to speak, and after Zhou Lin's telegram came in advance, although the old man did not approve of this possibility, he still told him about it at the combat meeting, so that everyone could analyze how likely it was.

As a result, 80 percent of the people thought that this was the incompetence of the intelligence officers, and that it was so easy to fall for the Japanese that fools could see that this was a lie.

Twenty percent of them were suspicious, including Mr. Bai.

But 20 percent of them did not take a stand at the time, nor did they raise their own doubts, and as a result, this important piece of information was nullified.
