Chapter 165: Special High Police Visit
"What? Sir, are you planning to blow up the supplies?" Song Jiayu was shocked by Chen Yang's suggestion...
"Shh, can you please keep your voice down?" Chen Yang rubbed his ears.
Song Jiayu said anxiously: "No, sir, the material transfer center is heavily guarded."
"With the people from the Military Control Commission's Shanghai Station, they would probably be beaten to pieces before they even get close..."
"Okay, I know the situation there better than you do." Chen Yang stroked his chin and said, "Besides, I didn't ask the Military Control Commission's Shanghai Station to blow it up."
"Uh, what do you mean?" Song Jiayu was confused.
Chen Yang said: "I have two plans. One is to have the planes from Hankou and Nanchang airports bomb them."
"Second, find the Red Party guerrillas to do it."
"This..." Song Jiayu hesitated for a moment and said, "Is this possible?"
"Remove the word 'ma'. It has to work." Chen Yang thought, "The front line has been fighting hard for days, and now the 106th Division's material supply has become a problem."
"The Expeditionary Force Command urgently dispatched supplies to reinforce the front line,"
"If this 'Sharp Knife Plan' is to be implemented, and we blow up their supplies, they will inevitably have to force their way through Wanjialing when supplies are scarce."
"Without sufficient supplies, they will have to abandon some of their heavy baggage."
"Besides, it's impossible for each person to carry a lot of rations."
"If we set up an ambush at Wanjialing in advance, even if we can't kill them, we can at least starve them to death."
Song Jiayu's eyes lit up when she heard that.
"Sir, how sure are you?"
Chen Yang curled his lips and said, "How many points? How would I know? It depends on the arrangements of the higher-ups."
"Report the situation to headquarters and see which plan they want to use."
Song Jiayu opened her mouth, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
"What? Do you have any other questions?" Chen Yang asked.
"Sir, you are in a high position now. I am worried that you might be suspected..."
Chen Yang said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm not the only one who knows about the material circulation. There are many people in the General Affairs Office, warehouse management, dispatching, and arranging these things."
"If they want to get to the bottom of it, they have to start with the hundreds of people at the transfer center and go all the way to the escort team and the material control department."
"There are thousands of people involved."
"Besides, the higher-ups wouldn't be so stupid as to blow up a train right after it happened. You could just blow up a bridge or a railway to prevent the transportation of supplies."
Yes, Song Jiayu felt relieved immediately...
Shancheng, after receiving the information sent back by the Zangfeng team, Director Dai immediately sent a telegram to the Wuhan Temporary Combat Readiness Command Center.
The Military Affairs Office also immediately conveyed the information to the First Army Commander Xue Boling...
After receiving the intelligence, Xue Boling immediately ordered the reconnaissance team to go to Wanjialing for investigation and drew a detailed topographic map of Wanjialing.
On the other hand, Dai Yunong reported Chen Yang's plan to blow up the supplies to his superiors.
In order to cooperate with the plan proposed by Chen Yang, the Military Affairs Office, in accordance with the Prime Minister's opinion, urgently met with the head of the Red Party's Zhejiang and Southern Jiangsu Guerrillas.
According to the material dispatch list provided by Chen Yang, the Zhejiang-Suzhou guerrillas were ordered to be at the border between Zhejiang Province and Jiangxi Province.
That is, the ambush was launched at the junction of Qu City, Zhejiang Province and Yushan City, Jiangxi Province.
All plans are ready....
On the morning of August 11, the only six bombers at Nanchang Airport since the Great War of Resistance received a bombing order from headquarters and took off, flying south along the railway line.
More than a hundred bombs were dropped along the way, destroying four bridges to ensure that the supply trains could not arrive smoothly.
The train carrying supplies was forced to stop at the border between Zhejiang and Jiangxi provinces.
Masahiro Kitada, a major in the logistics department who was in charge of transporting the supplies, had no choice but to ask for help from the 101st Division, hoping that the other side would send an engineering corps to carry out emergency repairs to ensure that the supplies could be delivered on time.
However, the engineering corps had not yet arrived, but the people from the Southern Zhejiang Guerrillas arrived instead.
The guerrillas in southern Zhejiang gathered more than 2,000 guerrillas in Qushi, Wucheng, Yushan and other places to launch a surprise attack on the supply vehicles.
There was only one Japanese squadron of less than 300 people guarding the supplies, and the guerrillas had already buried explosives around the railway. The enemy had no time to react and were dispersed by the guerrillas.
In the end, only more than a hundred people fled into Jiangxi Province in panic.
After completing their combat mission, the guerrillas loaded a series of supplies onto trucks and took them away, and destroyed those that could not be taken away on the spot.
By the time the troops from the 101st Division arrived from Jiujiang, only a pile of sparks remained of the supplies from the more than train cars.
Shanghai Stock Exchange, Special High Section.
The news that a truck carrying supplies to the front was ambushed by Red Party guerrillas at the border between Jiangxi and Zhejiang provinces soon spread to Shanghai.
The commander of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, Hisashi Nishio, was furious and ordered the chief of the Special High Section, Genichirō Otani, to investigate the attack thoroughly.
After receiving the order, Genichiro Otani did not dare to delay and immediately summoned Lieutenant Colonel Kenichi Koizumi of the Information Investigation Section and Captain Seiji Eto of the Action Team to go to Plum Blossom Tower.
At Meihua Tower, Chen Yang acted very innocent when he saw Koizumi Kenichi and Eto Seiki coming.
"Koizumi-kun, Jiang Teng-kun, I have no objection to you looking for clues, but I wonder if you have found the wrong target."
"Our operations center is only responsible for dispatching vehicles, but the people transporting along the way are from the Army Department."
Koizumi Kenichi also knew that Chen Yang's position was very important, so he smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, I know you have a good relationship with Colonel Fujiwara and Section Chief Otani."
"However, this time the incident was too serious. A whole truck of supplies was stolen by the Red Party guerrillas. We are here to inquire as usual."
"I wonder who knows the information about this material dispatch..."
"That's a lot," Chen Yang spread his hands and said, "The Materials Operation Center is not an organization for one person."
"We have a strict division of labor. The vehicle dispatch room is run by Ms. Shiraki Risa and Mr. Watanabe."
"Supplies are transported to the transfer warehouse. All material dispatch is in the charge of Nitta Koichi and Ishihara Mina."
"Not only them, all the material distribution lists must be reviewed by team leader Dong Yejun before they are sent to me."
"We have a clear division of labor, and I can guarantee that these people are absolutely loyal to the empire and will not leak any secrets."
"In fact, I would rather believe that this is probably a problem with the Army Department's transportation of personnel."
"You know, since the material transfer center began to operate normally, it has only been a little over a month. We have transported more than three million tons of various materials to the empire. At least thousands of tons of various materials flow in and out of my place every day, and there has never been a single mistake."
"But this time the Army Department was the one who sent the emergency supplies. We followed the procedures and there was no problem at all."
"The Red Party's guerrillas were able to accurately obtain intelligence on supplies. It seems that they were not targeting our supply distribution center, but the Army Department..."
"If there is something wrong here, it won't just be this time."
"The materials transported by our center are full of valuable and rare items, and there are no people from the Army Department escorting them along the way."
"Nothing happened before, but something happened this time. Don't you think this is too much of a coincidence?"
