The second section of the advisory department of the special high school is temporarily stationed in Hangzhou.

With the help of Shibahara Heizaburo, director of the intelligence office of the Hangzhou secret service, Sato Keichi, Hoshino Chiyo, and several subordinates carefully read the large amount of information collected by the Hangzhou secret service about the Third War Zone, and had a relatively clear impression in their hearts.

"Director Zhiyuan, what's going on with this Zhejiang-Jiangxi-Anhui border guerrilla headquarters? According to the report of the secret services, the scope of activities is centered on Huangshan and includes the surrounding counties of Tunxi, Jixi, Jingde, She, Xiuning, Yi, and Qimen, as well as Chun'an, Lin'an, Anji, and Deqing in the southeast, and they often go to Jiaxing and Huzhou to carry out sabotage. ”

"The guerrillas' activities were very close to Hangzhou, and they constantly attacked the transportation lines and outlying strongholds of the imperial army, which brought us a great threat, and hundreds of imperial soldiers and officers and soldiers of the new government were captured or killed by them one after another, but the garrison did not carry out encirclement and suppression, what is the way to say this?" Keichi Sato asked.

The guerrilla headquarters, as soon as he heard it, knew that it was a guerrilla, and their activities were so rampant, but the imperial divisions stationed in Hangzhou did not carry out encirclement and suppression, which was difficult for him to understand.

"The gains outweigh the losses, this is the focus of the Hangzhou garrison's consideration, the counties near Huangshan, the roads are rugged and the traffic is inconvenient, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, easy to dodge, the local economic development is very backward, there is no industry, and between Hangzhou and Huangshan is either a mountain or a river, it is very difficult to encircle and suppress."

"Finding a guerrilla force in such a large area is not much better than looking for a needle in a haystack, and even if you find the opponent's location, you will not be able to achieve a devastating strike, and you may even be ambushed. Our forces are insufficient, and the army of the new government is a bunch of waste, which is also a helpless thing. ”

"Sato-kun, don't underestimate this guerrilla force, their combat effectiveness is very strong, and their equipment is better than that of the ordinary Central Army, the guerrillas actually have mortars and heavy machine guns, and there are a lot of them, I think you have noticed that the commander of this guerrilla command is the eldest son of President Jiang, and he must be the elite of the army of the Shancheng government."

"At the beginning of February, the 15th Division received information and sent an infantry brigade of the 60th Infantry Wing to carry out an encirclement and suppression operation against the guerrillas north of Deqing. Shibahara Heizaburo said.

The Zhejiang-Jiangxi-Anhui Border Guerrilla Command is the establishment of the official number given by the Military Commission of the Shancheng Government, and all major theaters know about its establishment, but they do not have the details.

At first, the Japanese army did not pay attention to this guerrilla headquarters, and guerrillas were everywhere, but as the two sides fought more and more times, the garrison found that the other side was so difficult.

These guerrillas were obviously not ordinary guerrillas, and their equipment was even better than that of the Central Army, and in the face of the encirclement and suppression of a large group of Japanese troops, they actually dared to fight ambush warfare, and they fought hard, and the firepower was so strong that the Japanese army complained bitterly, which was not at all like the style of the Shancheng government army.

The Japanese army that mobilized the size of the wing to encircle and suppress, the other side relied on its familiarity with the terrain and led a Japanese wing around the mountains and forests, from time to time to release cold guns, and run away after the fight, and the Japanese army was helpless about it.

There were few people in pursuit, and that was to send the enemy's heads, and when there were too many people, these guys ran away with their legs, and they also engaged in mine tactics in a big way, and in several confrontations, the 15th Division simply broke the jar and broke it, chose to ignore the activities of the guerrillas, and paid attention to the vigilance of the cities and the main railway transportation roads.

"We can't take such a big threat lightly, dare to confront an infantry brigade of the imperial army, and the firepower can still have the upper hand, an infantry division of the mountain city government can't do it, Miss Hoshino, this time I will trouble you to take a trip to the vicinity of Huangshan, find out the real situation in this area, and find out where their main force is." Keichi Sato said.

"Section Chief, the Imperial Army is about to launch a large-scale operation against the Third War Zone of the Shancheng Government, and we are most needed to provide information on military deployment, at such a critical time, you actually want me to go to Huangshan to reconnoiter the guerrillas?" Chiyo Hoshino asked incredulously.

When she arrived at the boss's territory, maybe she could meet the boss and sit down to look at the scenery and have a cup of tea, she deliberately made such an expression. An Yanjiang and a few agents are not far away, monitoring the actions of the special second division around the clock, in other words, the actions of the special second division are no secret to Han Lin, if it weren't for her safety consideration, the spies who infiltrated the third war zone could be wiped out at any time.

"We have to learn the lesson of the 11th Army's attack on Tanzhou, when the transportation line was cut off, resulting in the front line running out of ammunition and food, if such a situation also occurs during the battle, this will have a fatal impact on the 13th Army's operation, hard work!" Keichi Sato said.

The decision he made was, of course, unquestionable, Chiyo Hoshino was his subordinate, and he had to carry out the order unconditionally, which was the iron law of the secret service.

"Sato-kun, do you have other intentions to make such an arrangement at this time?" Shibahara Heizaburo waited until Chiyo Hoshino left, and asked curiously.

"Shibahara-kun, I just went to the advisory department as a section chief, collecting intelligence to assist the 13th Army in attacking the third theater, this is my first mission, the reason why I arranged it this way is that I am worried that Miss Hoshino has been active in Shanghai for a long time, as the largest international city in the Far East, the concession is too prosperous, which has consumed her fighting spirit and vigilance, and she is not qualified for such an important job."

"Secondly, I also want to use such a mission to restore Miss Hoshino's professional agent instinct, she is also an agent carefully cultivated by the special high class, her professional ability is not bad, she has rich experience in actual combat, and the change of environment is a process of awakening for her." Keichi Sato said.

"It turns out that Sato-kun has good intentions, so he made a far-reaching arrangement, admire! It's really worthy of being the elite of the special high class, I want to learn more from you, and I hope that Sato-kun will give more advice in the future! Shibahara Heizaburo said, bowing deeply to Keichi Sato.

Learn to be a fart!

After he was found out by Han Lin, he became a traitor, providing information for the Jinling Field Service Group, the Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou Special Service Office, and the Special Service Office.

The railroad was slightly better, but water transport and automobile transport were ambushed by guerrillas from time to time, and as soon as the Second Special Section arrived in Hangzhou, he passed the news to the Shanghai Intelligence Station to give him a special contact point.

"Don't dare to be instructed, we are all fighting for the future of the empire." Keichi Sato said with a smile.

Most people like to be patted on the back, Shibahara Heizaburo is also the director of the intelligence office of the Hangzhou secret service, and the "admiration" from his peers makes Sato Keichi enjoy it very much, and he has a great "sense of achievement", but he didn't expect that the person in front of him is a deeply hidden ghost.

When he got up in the morning, Chiyo Hoshino changed into very simple coarse cloth clothes, dressed up as an ordinary person, said hello to Keichi Sato, and hired a carriage to go to the first stop, which was Chun'an within the Kokutong area. Two of her subordinates carry a radio station and hire another car to follow, and the two will set up a secret contact point in Jun'an, waiting for Hoshino Chiyo to come back from reconnaissance.

Yesterday, when she received the task, she went to the barber shop to get her hair done, and changed the big wavy hairstyle made in the Shanghai concession into a straight short hairstyle, and her attitude made Sato Keichi very satisfied and appreciated.
