Chapter 209 A battle that is imminent (Chapter 4 is here today)
Songhu, inside the concession.
A BMW was parked near the Suzhou River near the Sihang Warehouse, and the people inside the car were quietly watching the Japanese troops approaching in increasingly dense numbers.
The people sitting in the BMW were two women and one man.
Zhao Xinyi, an underground party traffic officer codenamed "Xueyan", is lurking in the secret base of the Songhu Juntong Station. She also obtained the Sihang Warehouse and the National Army troops from her contact this morning.
Hidden in a battle with the Japanese army,
So she also wanted to know what was going on, so she came to watch the fun.
But she is not an internal traffic officer with a simple background.
Her father was a wealthy gentleman in Xuzhou, with a wide network of contacts and a huge fortune.
Moreover, she was an international student at the University of Tokyo, and her Japanese teacher was now one of the advisers to the Japanese Emperor. She even had a certain mentoring relationship with the current Japanese Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro.
Konoe Fumimaro, who served as the Japanese Prime Minister three times, had a great backing.
Therefore, no one who knew her had any doubt that she would be an internal traffic officer.
Not even the Japanese’s famous extra-high school students doubted her.
"Miss! The Sihang Warehouse is opposite!"
"The Sihang Warehouse is where the 88th Division headquarters is located. It has a large amount of weapons and ammunition. Among them, there are 27 Czech light machine guns, 4 Maxim heavy machine guns, and hundreds of boxes of grenades."
"This is the intelligence information that our intelligence officer investigated before the Battle of Songhu!"
"Although the light and heavy firepower seems to be good, facing the massive attack of the Japanese army, I think the national troops on the opposite side who are holding on to the Sihang Warehouse are probably unable to defend themselves. If they can't hold on for a long time, they will be completely annihilated by the Japanese army.
of!"
Another girl sitting next to Zhao Xinyi glanced at the increasing number of Japanese soldiers with regretful eyes, and sighed helplessly.
Her name is Chen Songling, she is also an internal traffic officer, but she was developed as a downline by Zhao Xinyi.
"There is a Suzhou River, with heaven on one side and hell on the other. How long can Sihang Warehouse hold on?"
"Maybe it depends on God's will!"
Zhao Xinyi also sighed softly.
"The smoke is in the cold water, the moon is in the sand, and I stay in the Qinhuai River at night, close to the restaurant. The merchant girl does not know the hatred of the country's subjugation, but she still sings the flowers in the backyard across the river."
It also reminded her of Du Mu's ancient poems, and she couldn't help but read them out.
Because the Sihang Warehouse was a bloody battle with swords, guns, and fire, while the foreign concession where she was now was a ten-mile foreign market where people were living in a state of wealth and luxury.
For this reason, she also sighed with regret because of the unfairness of the world.
"That's right! But have you found out the numbers of the national troops currently guarding the Sihang Warehouse?"
"Are you from the 88th Division, the elite German Arms Division of the national army?"
But Zhao Xinyi quickly turned to the topic and asked.
"Found it? Where did you get the information from some reporters who knew the inside story, as well as senior generals of the national army? It seems to be someone from the reinforcement battalion of the 524th Regiment of the 88th Division? The highest officer there seems to be Captain Xie
, there is also a battalion commander assisting him in commanding operations!"
"But their combat effectiveness may not be as strong as the elite of the original 88th German Arms Division? Because the frontal battle of the Songhu Battle almost consumed all the elite officers and soldiers of the 88th German Arms Division!"
"So the national troops of the 88th German Arms Division currently guarding the Sihang Warehouse? Most of them are soldiers from the security regiment who were recruited from the rear."
"So there is absolutely no way they can withstand the attacks of more and more elite Japanese troops on the opposite side!"
"And the Japanese army? There are also planes, artillery and tanks to assist in the battle!"
Chen Songling was not optimistic about the national army holding the Sihang Warehouse opposite, and said in a regretful tone.
"Do they really only have one reinforced battalion stationed inside the Sixing Warehouse?"
Zhao Xinyi continued to ask.
Because she does not have as many means as Chen Songling to obtain internal information of the National Army and the Army,
Instead, it would be easier for her to obtain information from the Japanese army and military commanders.
Both of them have their own strengths and complement each other.
"It hasn't been fully implemented yet. I only know that it is probably a strengthened battalion, and I don't know if it is full or not!"
Chen Songling was not sure.
"Is there any action on the part of the Japanese army?"
"Sister Xinyi!"
Then Chen Songling asked curiously.
"Well, I have also received some uncertain news. In addition to the Japanese Army continuing to surround the Sihang Warehouse? The Japanese Navy seems to be planning to send their First Marine Corps to assist in the operation after receiving the news.
!”
"Originally, the Navy wanted the Army to leave? Then it encircled the national army in the Sihang Warehouse and used psychological warfare tactics to persuade them to surrender? But the Army was unwilling because their Army had already killed many officers and soldiers in the Sihang Warehouse.
It’s on the outskirts of the warehouse!”
"So the Japanese army plans to annihilate all the national troops in the Sihang Warehouse!"
"Come to wipe away the shame of their army? And avenge those dead Japanese officers!"
"So if the national troops in Sihang Warehouse still continue to hold on? Then they will face more and more Japanese army attacks!"
"There were even Japanese planes coming to conduct air raids!"
Zhao Xinyi also told her about the latest combat information that she had obtained from those senior Japanese military officers, which was unknown to outsiders.
In this regard, Chen Songling also admired Zhao Xinyi's good hands and eyes on the Japanese army, and she actually learned about these new situations so quickly.
"It's just that I see that the National Army troops in the Sihang Warehouse have not survived the Japanese air raids. I'm afraid they will die in the second round of Japanese attacks!"
"Look, those Japanese troops are ready to attack!"
"Sister Xinyi!"
After hearing this, Chen Songling was still not very optimistic about the combat strength of the national army, especially when she knew very well that the current officers and soldiers of the 88th German Arms Division were mostly soldiers from the security regiment recruited from the rear.
Even less optimistic.
She has seen the weapons, equipment and combat effectiveness of the security regiment soldiers.
It gave her the feeling of being very weak,
In front of the elite soldiers of the Japanese army, it was basically a matter of death.
But when Zhao Xinyi heard Chen Songling say that the second round of battle at Sihang Warehouse was about to break out, all her attention was focused on Sihang Warehouse to watch the battle.
Therefore, he did not reply to Chen Songling's words, but looked at the increasing number of Japanese troops with a slightly sad mood.
...
While the two of them were watching the situation at Sihang Warehouse,
The military special agents and intelligence team at the Songhu Military Command Station, as well as members of the intelligence team from the Central Military Commission, also sent many elite agents out to the concession boundary on the Sihang Warehouse side to collect intelligence.
Report the information on the battle situation between the Chinese troops and the Japanese troops at Sihang Warehouse to Boss Dai at any time.
