**The Shanghai Intelligence Department is an intelligence system that only belongs to the Central Military Commission, and has no connection with the Shanghai underground party intelligence system and the New Fourth Army intelligence system, and the identities of its members are top secrets.

Historically, after Gu Shunzhang's rebellion, the central organs withdrew from Shanghai and organized the famous "red team" in Shanghai to continue the work of the Central Special Branch. Later, the red team was sabotaged by Kuomintang agents, and after the arrest of four key members, they would rather die than give in, and were hanged by the Kuomintang. Wang Shiying organized the remaining members of the Red Team to fight to the death against the Kuomintang spies, and successfully killed the traitors who led the spies to destroy the Red Team at the Shanghai Grand Theater, and successfully evacuated more than 500 cadres of the hidden front in Shanghai. After Wang Shiying evacuated, the central government sent Xu Qiang to Shanghai to reorganize the special department, and after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the task was changed to reconnaissance of the Japanese army's strategic intelligence. After Xu Qiang returned to Xi'an in 1939, the central government sent Wu Jiguang to replace Xu Qiang, who was led by Pan Hannian. At this time, Pan Hannian was in Hong Kong, and Wu Jiguang was in charge of the work of the ** Intelligence Department in Shanghai.

Those who can be selected for the special branch are those who are bold, careful, skilled, and trained as agents.

At this time, in order to cooperate with Liu Yimin's attack on Shanghai. The fact that the central authorities actually ordered the Shanghai Intelligence Section to cooperate shows how high the central authorities' expectations are for this combat operation.

With the cooperation of ** Special Branch, the Eighth Route Army's operation to attack and occupy Shanghai will inevitably be smoother!

Wusongkou is the confluence of the Huangpu River and the Yangtze River, and it is also the gateway to Shanghai from the Huangpu River and the gateway to the sea in Shanghai. Garrison Shanghai's first river defense and coastal defense fortress. Historically,

It is more than 30 kilometers away from the Yangtze River estuary in the east, and Chongming Island in the north, Changxing and other islands in the east are confronted across the water, and the main channel of the Yangtze River is on the wing side, which is the gateway to the sea of Shanghai and Nanjing.

In the nineteenth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1386), Wusongjiang was set up to guard the thousand households, and the general army was set up during the Jiajing period, and the Wusong camp was changed at the beginning of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty, and the warships were stationed. this

On both sides of the estuary, there are east and west forts. The south and north forts of Nanshitang and the Lion Forest fort are equipped with more than 30 artillery pieces of various calibers. In the first year of the Republic of China (1912), it was called Wusong Fortress.

The key to the success of the attack on Shanghai lies in whether or not it can successfully attack and occupy Wusongkou. As long as the Wusongkou is occupied. The fleet of the Eighth Route Army could sail directly to the Bund in Shanghai. If Wusongkou could not be attacked, Liu Yimin's plan to attack and occupy Shanghai could be shattered by the coastal defense artillery fire of the Japanese troops stationed at Wusongkou. In that case, when the morning dawns, the Japanese machine will arrive. The southward detachment of the Eighth Route Army became the target of the Japanese plane.

The Third Fleet was dispatched by the Japanese Navy to the 8th, 9th, 10th, and 11th Fleets. At this time, the Eighth and Ninth Clans had been transferred to South China to carry out operations along the southeast coast, and only the Tenth and Eleventh Clans remained in the waters of the Yangtze River, which were responsible for the defense of the long Yangtze River waterway from Shanghai to Yichang and to support the operations of the Eleventh and Thirteenth Armies. As the Eleventh Army launched the Second Battle of Wuhan. The 10th and 11th teams have been transferred west to Poyang Lake and Dongting Lake to fight. Shanghai as the rear of the city. There were no warships, only patrol boats to take up the task of river defense.

There is **Shanghai Intelligence Bureau. The central authorities are naturally clear about the transfer of the Japanese army's Third Fleet, and Liu Yimin is also clear about it.

On the evening of September 18, just after dark, the soldiers of the Japanese naval garrison stationed in the eastern, western, and northern forts of Wusongkou and the south and south of Shitang, and the Shizilin fort were having dinner.

At this time, six patrol boats and four motorboats came outside Wusongkou. Through the searchlight columns, the sentries of the forts at Wusongkou could clearly see the plaster flags floating on the ships and the imperial soldiers standing.

The devil sentries were very responsible, and the signal lights flashed, asking for the number of the troops of these patrol boats and motorboats.

The devils on the patrol boat replied that they were the anti-smuggling fleet of the 15 th Division of the Jiangbei Defense Line, and they were ordered to pursue the two Hong Kong smuggling boats, and they needed to set up a card at Wusongkou to intercept them.

This reason is actually very far-fetched, the defense line of the 15th Division is in Jiangbei, and Wusongkou belongs to the naval defense area. However, things are so strange: the Japanese army and navy units stationed in Shanghai are most enthusiastic about anti-smuggling, nominally blockading strategic materials from entering the base areas of the New Fourth Army, but in fact they are also looting in the name of blockading the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army. In particular, those puppet spies and puppet army water garrison units are most enthusiastic about anti-smuggling. However, Wang's puppet spies and the puppet army's water garrison have one more business than the Japanese army, that is, they also do smuggling work along the way. For example, dumping some medicines, steel, opium or something, anyway, what is the money for what, what can be exchanged for small yellow croaker. Otherwise, where would they go to get rich? In this way, various anti-smuggling teams sometimes cooperate, sometimes fight, and are very busy.

In addition to the eagerness of the 15 th Division in Jiangbei, it also often sent troops to crack down on smuggling, and even often set up a checkpoint at Wusongkou to intercept and check merchant ships entering Shanghai from Jiangbei. When there is a harvest, it also gives a share of the naval garrison troops in Wusongkou. The Japanese army and navy, which are often fighting for funds and strategic directions, are united as one in Wusongkou.

When the Manchu Dynasty rode into the customs, they were all bloodthirsty masters, and later they became the masters of walking birds and fighting crickets. The Japanese army in Wusongkou has been garrisoned here for three or four years, and has never encountered an enemy, don't look at the serious standing guard, sentry, and signaling every day, it is all a serious performance, and what is shaking in the mind are golden gold bars, silver dollars with white flowers, and flower girls with flowers, and I am afraid that I have forgotten what the Chinese Navy looks like.

All this information came from the intelligence bureau of Shanghai ** and the intelligence system of the Shanghai underground party and the New Fourth Army. Originally, it was just some scattered information, which Liu Yimin discovered from the analysis reported by Qian Zhuangfei. It's just that the comrades who sent the intelligence and Qian Zhuangfei, who was engaged in intelligence analysis, did not pay much attention, and often used it as information on the internal relations between the Japanese army and the puppet army, because they never thought that our army would attack and occupy Shanghai in this way at this time. Liu Yimin is different, his ideas are much deeper than those intelligence officers and Qian Zhuangfei, and seeing this information is simply a treasure, so he boldly planned to use the fleet to carry troops to Shanghai for a long time.

Without this intelligence support, Liu Yimin would not have dared to envision the capture of Shanghai. Because it is just a Wusongkou fortress, if it is attacked, it will not be able to be captured in a while.

The defenders signaled that the patrol boats and motorboats had docked.

Wusongkou is so famous, and the famous ones don't need a guide to lead the way!

The six landing craft and four motorboats were divided into five groups and fired like five arrows at the Koudong Battery, the West Battery, the North Battery, the South Shitang Battery, and the Lion Forest Battery. After docking, the devils on the patrol boats and motorboats jumped out of the boat, lined up in the night, flashlights, and walked quickly towards the batteries.

The sentries on the devil's fort were still asking with a hippie smile what about the big fortune and the big golden ticket, but they didn't know what kind of anti-smuggling devils were deployed, but the top soldiers of the southbound detachment of the Eighth Route Army. Leading the command of the team were Li Lingfeng, commander of the special operations of the Eighth Route Army and captain of the special operations brigade, and Wang Laohu, deputy commander of the special operations and leader of the first special operations squadron.

Everything seemed so harmonious, the devil sentry asked with a hippie smile, and the Eighth Route Army was also constantly answering the devil sentry with the Japanese army. When the squads of the Eighth Route Army entered the fortress fort held by the Japanese army, a mutation suddenly occurred.

Li Lingfeng led the first special operations team and the first sniper team to attack the Wusongkou South Shitang Fort. As soon as the patrol boat docked, Li Lingfeng and Zhang Dalei, the leader of the first special operations team, jumped off the boat and led the soldiers to swagger towards the devil garrison stronghold of the South Shitang Fort.

Just as the Japanese sentries were greeting each other, the first special operations team and the first sniper team entered the Japanese army's Nanshitang Fort fortress position. At this time, where would Li Lingfeng and Zhang Dalin be polite, and the **** with the silencer in his hand opened fire. The devil sentry didn't even let out a single scream, and collapsed on the sentry post.

After solving the sentry, Zhang Dalei and some of the special combat team members rushed to the Devil's shore defense artillery, anti-aircraft guns, anti-aircraft machine guns, and heavy machine gun positions, eliminating the combat duty personnel of the Japanese army. Li Lingfeng took some of the soldiers directly to the little devil's barracks. The little devils there are still eating, and they can ask about the fragrance of white rice and the strong aroma of fish soup from afar.

The special combat team members were all in groups of three, and the snipers were in groups of two, and each combat group swept over like a whirlwind, and the Bayi automatic rifles and sniper rifles in their hands fired alternately, shooting at the little devil who was gobbling up his lunch box.

Covered with blood and corpses, the stronghold of the devils in the South Shitang Fort of Wusongkou Fortress became a Shura field, and the flickering gas lamps under the sea breeze and river breeze shone this tragic scene on the ground under the cover of night.

At the same time as Li Lingfeng and the others moved, Wang Laohu and several other squads also did it. At this time, the Wusongkou Fortress, which is mainly an artillery position and an air defense position, is its own training ground and shooting range for the special forces of the Eighth Route Army, which can be swayed at will.

The battle was fought with ease and ease, and it was a one-sided slaughter. Wusongkou, the gateway to Shanghai, which was originally like an iron wall, was instantly controlled by the Eighth Route Army. At this time, even if the main force of the Japanese fleet rushes back, I am afraid that it will have to taste the shells of Wusongkou Fortress first.

Li Lingfeng, who controlled Wusongkou, did not continue to advance westward by night, but commanded the soldiers of the 1st Special Operations Squadron and the 1st Sniper Squadron to go to the artillery position, strictly control Wusongkou, and wait for the arrival of the main force.
