Chapter 160: Aftermath

February 1932.

The Japanese army began the second general offensive on the 7th, and Nomura changed its strategy, with about 4,000 people of the Kurume brigade, which was second to none in the Japanese army, and the equipment of the Japanese army in Shanghai increased to 780 infantry guns, 150 curved guns, 38 field guns, and 60 mountain guns; 220 heavy machine guns, 580 light machine guns, 1 team of tanks and other combat vehicles. Attacking the fortress of Wusong, the marines attacked Jiangwan in an attempt to break through from the defenders' right flank. The 19th Route Army relied on the geographical advantages of the strong city defense of the Wusong fortress and the vertical and horizontal water network of Shanghai to resist the Japanese army's attack by land and water. The German artillery of Wusong Fortress sank 1 Japanese destroyer, damaged 3 gunboats, and annihilated a considerable number of Japanese troops attacking Jijiaqiao, Caojiaqiao and smuggling Yunzaobang, and the Japanese had no choice but to retreat to the concession.

At the same time, Wen Hao took the photos that Zhou Yuying had developed at home, because Wen Hao went prepared and took a lot of photos about the bombing of the fire depot that night.

Among them, there is also a photo of Zhou Yuying and others with the explosion, after Wen Hao asked them to see it, they all burned the fire, and they all jumped up in anger.

"Well, these photos are going to cause you a lot of trouble. We're going to keep a low profile, you know? Wen Hao said to them.

"And Zhou Yuying, you distributed these photos to major newspapers, and sent some articles on the genre of the Japanese army storing a large amount of arms in the concession area, which posed a great threat to the security of the concession. Plus these photos condemn what Japan has done. Wen Hao, Zhou Yuying and Zhao Jingxiang said.

Like Wen Hao, the men of them have no writing at all, and this kind of thing can only be handed over to the two women.

"Damn, I just found out that Wen Hao is really bad-hearted, he blew up the devil's arms, and relied on them to cause harm and threats to the concession. I'm going to make the devil angry now. Zhang Songbai had to admire when he heard it.

"What does it mean to have a bad heart, do you say that? This is called wisdom to know no, but your mind only knows to eat, drink, and be merry. Zhao Jingxiang was not happy when she heard it, and she dared to say that Wen Hao was bad-hearted.

This time, Zhang Songbai was angry, not only Zhao Jingxiang was unhappy, but Zhou Yuying and Hao Dahai were not happy.

Immediately, Zhang Songbai became the target of everyone's criticism and education. Zhang Songbai had no choice but to quickly admit his mistake......

The next day, the elephant declaration in Shanghai, Ta Kung Pao and other major newspapers reported that the Japanese army had stored a large amount of arms in the concession regardless of the safety of the concession.

Arms explosions as a result of mismanagement. It brought a great hidden danger to the security of the concession, and suddenly the entire concession began to oppose the Japanese army's storage of arms in the concession area.

This allowed the Japanese to be in Britain, the United States, France, and Germany. Italy and other countries explained that it was the Chinese who did it, and it was not their Japanese business.

However, Britain, the United States, France, and other countries opposed the Japanese army's military placement in the concession, which made the Japanese anxious.

Shi Liangcai, the boss who declared, received this report early in the morning, and it was accompanied by various kinds of photos as evidence.

He immediately asked his staff to print and publish it, and he couldn't help but laugh when he looked at the photo history.

The quality and quantity of these photos are about the same as those received by the former central government, and they must have been taken in favorable terrain and were well prepared.

Of course, the report said that it was filmed unintentionally, and Shi Liangcai didn't believe it at all, but he wouldn't debunk this lie.

I thought to myself that these guys were bold and careful. not only blew up the devil's munitions, but also dared to shoot it like this, and sent it to be reported in the news. The Japanese are going to be angry now.

Even some foreign media reported on this incident, and people all over Shanghai said that the Japanese were undermining the security of the concession by bringing arms into the concession.

Demonstrations were held in those concessions against Japan's storage of arms, ammunition, and dangerous goods in the concessions.

This made the Japanese government anxious, and they explained it for a long time, but no one listened.

It was only said that some people thought that it was blown up by the Chinese, and if it was not put in the concession, it would not matter if it was blown up there.

There is also no evidence that the Chinese did it, and the Chinese side also firmly denies that the Chinese did it. One bite is the reason for your poor transportation and storage in Japan.

Dai Li, along with his men, was also reading the newspaper, and when they saw the photos in the newspaper, his men said, "These pictures were taken in a vantage point, so they were taken comprehensively." Complete. ”

Others said, "One possibility is that they were lucky enough to see the explosion on that vantage point, or that they deliberately took pictures on that terrain." If there are too many coincidences in one thing, it is not a coincidence. ”

Therefore, most people analyze it and believe that this matter was deliberately done by someone, from bombing arms to taking pictures and then giving these photos to the press. is a complete plan.

In fact, for Wen Hao, it was a temporary plan, and there was no scheming that those people talked about.

However, in the eyes of others, all this is a perfect plan, and the main thing is that the Japanese think that it is relatively safe in the concession area, so they are more strictly guarded on the surface, but those Japanese soldiers are psychologically despised.

** Heroic resistance on the front line, so that the Japanese army was again dealt a serious blow. On 14 February, the Japanese General Staff Headquarters finally lost confidence in the naval faction. They mobilized the 9th Division of the Army to participate in the battle (16,200 men, 852 curved guns, 3,200 infantry guns, 23 heavy artillery, 23 anti-aircraft guns, 18 tanks, and more than 1,800 light and heavy machine guns), replaced the commander of the naval faction that was unfavorable in combat, Nomura Kichizaburo, and replaced the commander of the 9th Division of the Army faction, Kenkichi Ueda, with unified command of all units.

This was the third time that the Japanese had changed their generals, and all the soldiers and civilians in Shanghai threw themselves into this war of resistance.

Yang Qifan took the money Wen Hao gave him, and left Shanghai before the New Year was over.

In fact, after the Japanese found out that Yang Qifan was missing, they began to look for him everywhere, and they still offered him a heavy reward.

Moreover, after investigation, the Japanese Military Police Department and the Special High School also found that Yang Qifan had major suspicions, and the fact that he did not say anything else made people even more suspicious.

The Kuomintang also has ** agents, who have also obtained relevant information, and are also looking for Yang Qifan.

They wanted to know who was responsible for the bombing, and they wanted to take this group of people into use.

But under Wen Hao's arrangement, Yang Qifan disappeared without a trace, as if there was no such person in the whole of Shanghai.

When Zhou Yuying, Zhang Songbai, and Hao Dahai walked out into the street, they always felt a sense of pride when they saw people talking about the incident at the Japanese arsenal.

It's just a photo Wen Hao let them burn it all after a few glances, it's a pity, otherwise it's better to keep it as a souvenir, and when they are old, take it out to show their children and grandchildren, what a proud thing. (To be continued.) )
