Chapter 428: Abe-3's plan

Seeing that 13 August was getting closer and closer, the Japanese marines continued to increase their troops in the Hongkou and Yangshupu areas, but the troops of the three divisions mobilized by Chairman Chiang were slowly assembling and some were still on their way to the assembly area.

For some unknown reason, Chairman Chiang did not agree to his request, but only told him that the Military Committee had already considered the situation in the Songhu area, and that the reinforcements of Shanghai would arrive as soon as possible, and that Wen Bai had already arrived in Shanghai and was working on the rectification of the existing armed forces in the city, so that Qiu Li should not be distracted by this.

This made Tang Qiuli depressed, he didn't know where to say, what made him feel a little relieved was that General Zhang Zhizhong had arrived in Shanghai, replaced Yang Hu, and began to reorganize the armament, with General Zhang here, Shanghai would not fall soon, the old man's attitude was not to care about him first, in order to avoid a two-front battle, blocking the Japanese out of Shanghai, it was just a problem that needed to be solved urgently, he ordered Liu Feng's rapid reaction brigade, which was already on the periphery of Shanghai, all plainclothes, to secretly infiltrate the downtown area of Shanghai, as much as possible to familiarize themselves with the terrain and seize the key points.

At the same time, in the name of the Sī people, he sent a telegram to General Zhang Zhizhong, explaining that he had sent a brigade of troops to secretly infiltrate the downtown area of Shanghai, because there was no order from the Military Commission, and hoped that General Zhang would take care of it and take care of one or two, and if necessary, it could be dispatched by General Zhang.

Of course, General Zhang Zhizhong will not mind, on the contrary, he is very happy, the three divisions assigned to his command are still crawling on the way to Shanghai, he can only swallow his saliva wildly, he can't solve the problem in front of him, there are more than 10,000 people out of thin air, and it is also Vice Chairman Tang's troops, a well-known ** force, with strong combat effectiveness, he will not be stupid enough to stab this matter to the old man, so he will take over the command of the independent division and the fast anti-brigade along the way, and secretly arrange tasks, which can be regarded as a tacit understanding between him and Tang Qiuli.

Shanghai has a rapid reaction brigade that is familiar with urban operations, Tang Qiuli has some support in his heart, he really doesn't want the fire of war to ignite again in the direction of Shanghai, but this matter is not something he can control, he only hopes that those crazy people in the Japanese Navy will not go crazy in their hearts.

In view of the layout of the Japanese army's Chen soldiers in the Pingjin area, Tang Qiuli prepared to fight a battle with the Japanese army on the line of Yangyuan, Weixian, and Laiyuan in western Hebei, Xingtang, Shijiazhuang, Baoding, Hengshui, and Cangzhou in southern Hebei, thwarting the momentum of the Japanese attack, and fighting the rapid advance of the Japanese army, and then the whole army retreated to the Taihang Mountains and the south bank of the Yellow River, as well as Shanxi.

To this end, he ordered the Independent Division's Yellow River River Defense Command Sun Zhenbang's Division, the Central Army's Henan Yellow River Defense Line's Eighth Army Corps, the Yellow River Henan Garrison Corps' Su Jingfeng Division, and the Northeast Tǐng Advance Command Liu Tiehan's Division stationed in Shandong to immediately enter a state of special combat readiness, and all units entered fortifications to prepare for a large-scale attack by the Japanese army.

To Tang Enbo's department, he particularly emphasized: "Tang Commander, the Yellow River is the barrier south of the Yangtze River, if it is lost, the Central Plains will be opened, and the Japanese army can drive into the Yangtze River for a long time, and go straight to the important places in the south of the Yangtze River, you and I are both sinners of the nation, and I hope that the commander of the Tang Army must be cautious" Tang Qiuli was really not at ease with Tang Enbo, so he patiently sent him a telegram alone, and at the same time, he intended to let the communication office send his telegram to Tang Enbo for Nanjing to receive.

Then, he mobilized his troops, entered the preset positions according to the deployment, and waited for the Japanese to launch a large-scale offensive.

On the evening of 8 August, while he was in the headquarters and perfecting the battle plan with some staff officers, Yu Deshui, chief of the intelligence department of the independent division, ran in nervously and handed him a telegram.

After reading the telegram, Tang Qiuli's brain suddenly dizzy, and his heart twitched violently, this is a high-ranking agent who broke into the Japanese North China Dispatch Army Headquarters as a translator, risked his life, did not hesitate to violate his identity, activated the top-secret communication channel, and sent a telegram to the intelligence headquarters.

In addition, the "Ju" organ, a Japanese secret service agency in Shanghai, has also drawn up an action against Commander Tang's father-in-law, and the specific action plan is unknown. "That's his code name.

Tang Qiu was like hemp, when he was at Mei Ting's house in Moling, he thought about this problem, and also arranged for the mountain tiger to do it, but then he dealt with the Shaanxi mutiny, rectified the troops, and then went to war with the Japanese, and this matter was put aside, but he didn't expect that his premonition became a reality, and Abe San was really vicious.

Abe-san, who came to China in the twenties, under the cover of doing business, engaged in spy work, has been in China for many years, and is very familiar with Chinese culture, customs, geography and folklore.

After receiving the order of Prince Zaihito of the Xianyuan Palace, he pondered for several days, and then sent the Military Intelligence Department and the Kwantung Army Intelligence Department from North China to borrow a large amount of information about the independent division.

With the analysis of this line of thought, the current North China Independent Division, the former Bloody Hand Regiment, their senior commanders and backbone elements, are all Manchurians, that is, they were born in Manchuria, so aren't their parents and relatives all in Manchuria?

If Tang Qiuli and the parents and relatives of those backbone elements under him are controlled in his hands, what should Tang Qiuli do? Even if he had no family affection, did not care about the lives of his parents and relatives, and killed his parents and relatives in various cruel ways, it was also a fatal blow to Tang Qiuli and the backbone elements under him.

Abe Mitsukoshi also thinks that this plan is feasible, Manchuria is the world of the Japanese Empire, and it is not easy to catch the clues of so many people, he feels that he is a genius, after reporting to Zaehien, Zairen praised it and rubbed his hands with excitement, because of this incident, that the devil Tang Qiu went crazy, or committed suicide, then it was only jīng Cai

He immediately urged Abe San to go to the northeast, take full responsibility for this plan, grant the status of special envoy of the General Staff Headquarters, and in the capacity of chief of the general staff of the base camp, order the Kwantung Army to fully cooperate with Abe San's actions, ask for people, guns and guns, in a word, in order to catch Tang Qiuli's parents and relatives, even if Manchuria is turned over, he will not hesitate.

Abesan's plan is simple, but very practical, he wants to carry out a thorough population registration in the entire northeast, not a single village will be spared, the focus is on the majority of Tang surnames, a large number of young people have left home collectively, and the towns and villages have not returned for several years, at the same time, a huge bounty was issued, and those who provided clues were not only rewarded with 100,000 yuan in the ocean, but also sent him to live in Japan, became a Japanese citizen, and directly became a subject of the Japanese Empire.

Abe San's plan directly stabbed Tang Qiuli's vital point, Tang's nest shop, as the name suggests, with the surname Tang in the majority, the fifty-seven people who followed him into the mountain at the beginning, didn't they leave home collectively, Tang Qiuli left the square inch, he didn't dare to imagine the consequences of his parents and relatives falling into the hands of the Japanese, so he succumbed, for the life of his parents, he couldn't do it.

What's more, it may not be able to save their lives, what the Japanese are, he knows too well, with the more than 300,000 Japanese who were wiped out in his hands, plus the hundreds of thousands of the Northeast Kwantung Army, these brutes will not let themselves go.

Focusing on the general interests of the country and the nation, the so-called "loyalty and filial piety cannot be both", he can't do it, because of his own reasons, and his parents' lives are poisoned, even if he kills all the Japanese, this pain will be deeply imprinted in the depths of his soul, and he will be tormented all his life, just that kind of guilt and self-blame can make him crazy.

This seems to be a very popular proposition in later generations, but it is an absurd and cruel proposition, your wife and mother, falling into the unfathomable river at the same time, the tools in your hands, can only save one person, who will you save first? I saw it before, Tang Qiu laughed and thought it was purely boring, but now, this proposition is staged in another version, how can he be good?

Tang Qiuli was at a loss, the six gods had no master, Shen Jun, the director of the investigation department, had been by the side of the division commander, he took the telegram, studied it carefully for a while, and said to Tang Qiuli: "Division commander, things are not so bad that Cheng dù, Abe San is just about to start acting, we will rush ahead of the Japanese, rescue the family, and the problem will be solved." ”

The so-called "care is luàn", Tang Qiuli was reminded by a word, what he thought of was the scene of his parents falling into the hands of the Japanese, and the key now is to seize time, grab ahead of the Japanese, and rescue his parents and the parents of his partners.

He immediately telegraphed Tang Qiuquan, the head of the special operations detachment, to lead the fourth and fifth special operations detachments that were still operating in the Jinzhou area, and to strengthen the division commander's special guard unit, and immediately rush back to Tang's nest, no matter what the price was paid and what method was used, all relatives should be taken out safely, especially Xiǎo Ling's parents.

At the same time, he wrote a long letter to his parents, detailing the reason for the evacuation, this kind of extremely dangerous and complicated thing, it is most appropriate for Qiu Quan to do, others do not have that convincing power and weight, that is to make people who have lived in Tang's nest shop for several lifetimes, uprooted from their hometown, how difficult do you say?

Tang Qiuli told thousands of instructions, after sending Brother Qiuquan away, his heart was still up and down, I hope that Brother Qiuquan can be in front of Abe San, I hope that the relatives of the Tang family's nest shop can be safe and sound, Abe San, a brute, must find an opportunity to kill him.
