I am Jiang Weiguo in World War II

Inadvertently, Jiang Weiguo saw that the road near the railway was densely packed with ordinary people, and all the ordinary people were silent. They knew that their own army was secretly gathering and advancing, and they all sent their blessings to their own army with hot, encouraging, and expectant eyes.

Before leaving, the officers and soldiers saw the people silently waving goodbye to them. The soldiers were so moved that they waved frequently, and the officers bowed their hands to the people to thank them.

"The Chinese army marched in China's territory, but they were sneaky and sneaky. It's a national humiliation!" Zheng Dongguo said with emotion.

"Be brave after knowing the shame!" Jiang Weiguo laughed, "Sooner or later we will return the shame, sacrifice, loss, and injury brought to us by the Japanese with interest!" He is the person who is most confident in the victory of the war.

In order to conceal and keep secrets, the troops marched day and night all the way, and marched continuously for three nights (there were too many heavy weapons and supplies), and finally arrived at Hongqiao Airport in Changning District, the western suburb of Shanghai, in the middle of the night on August 8. Because the airport is located in the suburbs , so there are only a few scattered satellite towns around, and the road is safe and sound. Not far away, the brightly lit downtown Shanghai is already clearly visible, and all the officers and soldiers disguised as security corps began to enter in an orderly and silent manner. The garrison area of ​​the Shanghai Municipal Security Corps.

According to the order of the Military Commission, the 128th Regiment and the 14th Artillery Regiment were temporarily stationed in the Hongqiao Airport area, and then waited for the order to enter the city to participate in the battle. Colonel Sun Tianfang, the head of the general regiment and the head of the second regiment, has already been waiting here.

"Thank you!" Zheng Dongguo, Qiu Zhiji, Huang Baitao, Zhang Lingfu, Huang Guoshu, Jiang Weiguo and other military officers saluted Ji Zhangjian and Sun Tianfang.

"To each other!" Ji Zhangjian and Sun Tian returned the salute. Their faces were haggard, their eyes were red, and they looked physically and mentally exhausted.

"How is the situation in Shanghai?" Zheng Dongguo asked eagerly after taking his seat as all the military officers gathered in the meeting room.

Chapter 153 Shanghai (2)

"The sword is on the verge of firing!" Ji Zhangjian scattered cigarettes for everyone, and he lit one and smoked vigorously, "Little Japan has only three or four thousand troops in Shanghai, but they are so arrogant, damn it, they are fighting all day long!" The nose is on the face! There are also those expatriates and vagrants who pick quarrels and troubles all day long, and the brothers hate them so much.

To tell you the truth, we haven't slept soundly since last month, and our nerves are tense for 24 hours, for fear of misfiring.

Damn, hit early and save worry! ’ he gritted his teeth.

Sun Tianfang looked very irritable and depressed: "I really can't figure it out! The national army and the little devils have already turned the world upside down in Pingjin, why do we still treat the Japanese with 'respect' in Shanghai? You don't know, the arrogant appearance of the Japanese, say Get up, I’m so angry that my teeth hurt! To make an inappropriate analogy, the Japanese in Shanghai stick their butts up in front of us, deliberately put their buttocks in front of our toes, and provoke us to kick us, but we didn’t Get the order to kick down hard! How aggrieved!"

Jiang Weiguo and others burst out laughing, because Sun Tianfang's metaphor is very vivid.

Zheng Dongguo smiled: "There is no way, the government has not officially declared war on the Japanese after all!"

"Although war has not been declared, isn't it already started?" Sun Tianfang was indignant, "In my dreams, I want to kill this bunch of bastards!"

"Be safe and don't be impatient, it's coming soon!" Jiang Weiguo was dumb and ate dumplings, knowing it well.

Both Ji Zhangjian and Sun Tianfang's eyes lit up. Although Jiang Weiguo is only a lieutenant colonel and battalion commander and a so-called "special commissioner of the Military Commission", he is Chiang Kai-shek's son after all, so the channel for getting news can be said to be "direct to heaven".

"Is the chairman ready to fight in Shanghai?" Ji Zhangjian looked at Jiang Weiguo and asked eagerly, and Sun Tianfang also stared at Jiang Weiguo with twinkling eyes.

Jiang Weiguo smiled and nodded lightly: "Within half a month!" He knew that the historical battle of Songhu officially broke out on August [-]th. According to the current situation, it is more severe and irreconcilable than in history. In all likelihood, the situation between China and Japan will be advanced rather than delayed. Jiang Weiguo said that "within half a month" is relatively conservative.

"Great!" Both Ji Zhangjian and Sun Tianfang couldn't help being overjoyed, "Finally we can teach these Japanese devils a lesson!"

"Ji Tuan Zuo, Sun Deputy Tuan Zuo, we will leave this place to us. Hurry up and prepare your troops for battle!" Jiang Weiguo said sincerely, "We brought an extra batch of weapons and a lot of ammunition to supplement For your security headquarters!"

"Okay!" Ji Zhangjian and Sun Tianfang nodded again and again, "Everyone, I hope we will fight side by side as soon as possible!"

"Well! I look forward to fighting side by side with us!" Zheng Dongguo and other officers expressed emotion.

Ji Zhangjian and Sun Tianfang left with the officers and soldiers of the Security Corps at Hongqiao Airport and a large number of weapons and ammunition aided by Jiang Weiguo. Jiang Weiguo, Zheng Dongguo, Qiu Zhiji, Huang Baitao, Zhang Lingfu, Huang Guoshu and other military officers started a meeting to develop a combat plan. At that time, Sun Tao knocked on the door of the meeting room: "Brother Wei, someone is looking for you, claiming to be from the Overseas Department!"

Jiang Weiguo's heart skipped a beat: "Let him in quickly!"

The person who came was a gentle young man, about 27 or [-] years old, with clear features and gentle manners. He introduced himself as Yang Jiang, a native of Wuhan. He used to be a teacher in the Department of Political Science and Psychology at Nanjing University, but he didn't like it at all. He is dedicated to his work. First, he thinks being a teacher is boring. Second, he believes that in troubled times, men should join the army. Therefore, when the Maritime Statistics Bureau recruited new members in Nanjing University (the recruitment of new members by the Maritime Statistics Bureau is to recruit special agents, but in name The above is to recruit overseas civil servants), he signed up without hesitation, and received strict training from the German Gestapo instructors. The ranking of the university he attended surpassed the University of Tokyo in Japan, ranking first in Asia).

Yang Jiang sent a map of Shanghai to Jiang Weiguo and other officers.

All the officers took a closer look and were immediately amazed. On the map, the military camps, firepower points, strongholds, important institutions, and military facilities of both the national army and the Japanese army in Shanghai were clearly marked in great detail. Hundreds of close-up photos of Japanese military installations such as the Japanese Marine Corps Headquarters.

"Good job!" Jiang Weiguo was overjoyed and praised again and again, and he looked at Yang Jiang again, "How did you get so much and such detailed information?"

Yang Jiang said with a smile: "Holmes has an intelligence gathering team, composed of little beggars and vagrants. Because of their young age and humble status, they are unremarkable in the metropolis, and they will not arouse suspicion in the slightest, and they can They are ubiquitous and pervasive, because it is reasonable for them to appear in any place. I followed suit, first pretending to be a philanthropist, and opened a children's welfare home in Shanghai, which took in two or three hundred little beggars under the age of 15. , little vagrants, and little orphans, and then tested them by playing games, picked out seventy or eighty ones who were gifted in gathering intelligence and smart in mind, and then trained them, and finally more than forty passed the test to form a My intelligence-gathering team is spying on intelligence everywhere in Shanghai.

Seeing a few dirt-covered, disheveled, sallow and emaciated kids begging for food near the Japanese army headquarters, who would doubt it? "

Jiang Weiguo felt a little strange in his heart. After all, training children to do military and intelligence work is not only against morality, but also against international law and human values, but there is nothing to do at the moment.

"You did a great job!" Jiang Weiguo praised Yang Jiang.

"By the way, bureau!" Yang Jiang put away his smile and said seriously, "The project in Shanghai is coming to an end soon!"

"Oh?" Jiang Weiguo was surprised and delighted.

"Would you like to come and see?" Yang Jiang invited.

"Let's go!" Jiang Weiguo handed over the map presented by Yang Jiang to Zheng Dongguo and others, and brought four guards, Xiao Yao, Yang Mei and Sun Tao, and followed Yang Jiang to watch impatiently.

In the early morning light, Jiang Weiguo and his team drove to Jiangwan Town, Hongkou District, Shanghai under the leadership of Yangjiang. But they are all under construction. The sign on this construction site is "Jiangwan Town New Factory of China Domestic Products Company".

In a house near the construction site, Jiang Weiguo saw Kan Weiyong, the leader of the engineering team whom he hadn’t seen for a long time, and an elegant and thin middle-aged man. Both of them were wearing hard hats. boss.

Ma Chongliu and Cai Fangyin were mainly responsible for the Nanjing city defense project, and Kan Weiyong was in charge of the Shanghai tunnel project, because the Nanjing project did not need to be kept secret, and it could be done vigorously. The first element of the Shanghai project is absolute secrecy. It's completely ruined.

There are also several temporary workers’ dormitories in the construction site, and there are bursts of snoring from inside. There are also night watch workers in twos and threes holding flashlights in the site. It looks like a very normal and ordinary construction site after work at night. On the ground, many of those workers were disguised as soldiers or special agents, with a pair of eagle-like eyes watching the surroundings vigilantly under the hard hat.

"Second son, let me introduce you!" Kan Weiyong excitedly pointed at the elegant and thin man, "Mr. Fang Yexian!"

"Second son, hello!" Fang Yexian stretched out his hand to Jiang Weiguo excitedly.

"Mr. Fang, hello!" Jiang Weiguo shook hands with Fang Yexian tightly.

Fang Yexian was a well-known figure in China's industrial and commercial circles at this time. He was a famous industrialist and one of the pioneers of China's civilian chemical industry. He was known as "the king of domestic products" and "the king of chemicals". , cream, toilet water, hair tonic, glycerin, peppermint oil, glass and other civilian chemical products, owns [-] or [-] large-scale companies and factories, and he is also a patriotic businessman who is upright and concerned about the country and the people. The "China Domestic Products Company" was founded by him with the purpose of "boycotting Japanese products and promoting domestic products." Freedom from foreign economic oppression", the sincere patriotism is awe-inspiring.

In the original history, after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Fang Yexian was stranded in Japanese-occupied Shanghai and firmly refused to cooperate with the Japanese and the Wang Puppet Government. As a result, he was brutally killed by Wang Puppet Secret Service.

"Jiangwan Town is 4.9 kilometers away from the Japanese Army Headquarters in a straight line, but the tunnel must not be excavated directly!" Kan Weiyong showed Jiang Weiguo a complex construction design drawing, "After the actual construction, the tunnel is irregular S-shaped, with a total length of About 8 kilometers.

The reason for choosing this place is that it is a certain distance away from the Japanese army headquarters, which will not arouse the suspicion of the Japanese. Second, this place is adjacent to the Huangpu River. The excavated soil can be poured into the Huangpu River, and the tunnel is filled every day Seepage, pumped water can also be discharged into the Huangpu River.

In this matter, we have received strong support from Mr. Fang!" He looked at Fang Yexian very gratefully, "First of all, Mr. Fang does not intend to build this so-called new factory area, but at our request In order to cover our tunneling operation, we deliberately announced the establishment of a new factory with great fanfare.

On the surface, this construction site is to build a new factory area, but in fact it is to dig a tunnel; secondly, second son, you have been in charge of the relocation of Shanghai industry and commerce for a long time. If Mr. Fang builds a new factory area while withdrawing all his assets in Shanghai If you go, the Japanese will definitely see the flaws, so in order to put in a lot of effort in acting, Mr. Fang’s assets in Shanghai did not move inland one person and one machine!"

Jiang Weiguo could hear that Fang Yexian used his company to cover up this top-secret plan of the Maritime Bureau and the Engineering Corps. In order to hide the eyes and ears, he sacrificed all his assets. He left all his assets in Shanghai and did not move for a long time. Go, there is no doubt that after the outbreak of the Shanghai Battle, because his assets were delayed until the last moment, it must be too late to move, and most of them will be destroyed by the war.

Jiang Weiguo looked at Fang Yexian with emotion and respect: "Mr. Fang, please rest assured that your company, factory, and enterprise are making sacrifices for the country, and the country will compensate you as much as you lose!" Of course , the money must have come from Jiang Weiguo's pocket.

Fang Yexian said solemnly and honestly: "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country! As an upright Chinese, it is the unshirkable duty of heaven to destroy the family and relieve the disaster!"

Jiang Weiguo smiled: "That's what I said, but the future is still long! If our country's civil chemical industry wants to continue to develop, we need people like you, Mr. Fang! Let's do this, things, it doesn't matter if they can't be moved, People are the most precious thing. You should try your best to prepare the personnel in your company, factory, and enterprise to retreat. When the war in Shanghai breaks out, the factory equipment will not be able to be kept, but at least you can keep the people. If there are people, everything can make a comeback. The country I will support you with all my strength, and I will support you with all my strength!"

Fang Yexian nodded again and again: "The second son Zhai has a kind heart, and Yexian has no teeth to forget. Yexian will definitely do his best for the development of my country's chemical industry!"

"Second Young Master, go down and have a look!" Kan Weiyong warmly invited.

"Okay!" Jiang Weiguo was in high spirits.

Under the guidance of Kan Weiyong, Jiang Weiguo and others walked to the innermost rough building of the construction site, and walked into the basement with a few turns, seeing darkness in front of them.

After turning on the flashlight, everyone walked down the stairs paved with cement bricks to a depth of 20 meters. Only then did they suddenly see the light in the humid air. This is a very large deep basement, the space is equivalent to a basketball stadium. There are several dim light bulbs hanging from the top, and there are two passages in opposite directions, one to the east and the other to the west.

Teams of engineers and soldiers in workers' clothes were busy in an orderly manner, pushing carts full of dirt out of the west tunnel and then into the east tunnel.

"The tunnel on the west leads to the underground of the target, and the tunnel on the east leads to the nearby Huangpu River!" Kan Weiyong explained, "The soil excavated in the tunnel on the west is poured directly into the Huangpu River in the tunnel on the east. There is no need to go to the ground, leaving no holes. He pointed to the tunnel again, "Look at the topography of the tunnel, the east is low and the west is high, this is to allow the groundwater in the west tunnel to flow eastward to the Huangpu River, and it is also divided into multiple underground sewage pipes in the city. Drainage is perfect!"

"Very good!" Jiang Weiguo praised again and again, Kan Weiyong is indeed a talented engineer, and he designed this tunnel very cleverly.

A group of people entered the east tunnel, and the engineers who entered and exited the tunnel had a clear division of labor. The engineers who pushed the soil out kept to the left (according to Jiang Weiguo's perspective), and the engineers who pushed the empty carts in kept to the right.

Jiang Weiguo looked around as he walked, and found that Shanghai Beach was more than ten meters underground, and the soil layer was already soaked with groundwater. The soil was full of mud, and the air was damp, full of damp earthy smell.

Jiang Weiguo looked at it carefully. This underground tunnel is not simply digging a tunnel underground, it is not an "earth pit and earth road", but a carefully constructed tunnel. The ground is paved with bricks and stones, and several wires and telephone lines are pulled in all the way forward. A light bulb is hung every ten meters, and a telephone is set up every kilometer. There are soldiers standing guard beside the telephone and answering the phone at any time. to report the situation.

There is no roaring machine sound in the tunnel, because it is easy to make noise and expose the underground world. After all, this tunnel is in a hurry around the clock, and the sound of the machine in the middle of the night is very clear, so the entire tunnel is basically excavated by engineers and soldiers. .

"This tunnel was officially started at the end of May!" Kan Weiyong said, "It has been excavated for two and a half months, with an average daily progress of about 100 meters. Continue to dig underground towards the Japanese Army Command, and the other four lanes are respectively excavated to the Japanese Army Club near the Japanese Army Command, Hongkou Shooting Range, Yangshupu Gongda Spinning Mill, and Huxi Fengtian Spinning Mill. These four places are around the Japanese Army Command The auxiliary strongholds must be removed.

At present, there are still more than 1 meters left of the No. 220 tunnel leading to the underground of the Japanese Army Headquarters, the No. 2 tunnel leading to the Japanese Army Club has been completed, and the No. 3 tunnel leading to the Hongkou shooting range is still 80 meters away. The No. 4 tunnel of the spinning mill has also been completed, and the No. 5 tunnel leading to the Huxi Fengtian Spinning Mill still has about 150 meters to be completed.

According to our design, four charging chambers will be excavated at the end of No. 1 tunnel, which are respectively located at four points of the quadrilateral of the Japanese Army Command, so as to ensure the maximum blasting power. Each charging chamber can be filled with 3-5 tons of TNT Explosives, a total of about 15 tons of explosives are loaded; two to three charging chambers will also be excavated at the end of No. 2, No. 3, No. 4, and No. 5 tunnels to ensure that the blasting power is maximized!" Kan Weiyong looked at Jiang Weiguo, "Total About 30 tons of TNT explosives are needed!" (Taking the Japanese army as an example, the grenades used by the Japanese army at this time are mainly Type 65 and Type 30. Each of these two types of grenades is filled with 46 grams of explosives, and [-] tons of explosives is equivalent to [-] pieces The explosive yield of the Japanese grenade.

）

"It's worth it!" Jiang Weiguo nodded, "Although it is extravagant to use [-] tons of explosives all at once, it can solve the war once and for all. Why not do it? Not only can the battle be resolved quickly, but also the casualties of the brothers can be greatly reduced. It is a good deal!"

"Is this tunnel not leaking secrets?" Xiao Yao who had been silent all this time asked suddenly.

"We tried our best to keep it secret!" Kan Weiyong said, "From the beginning of construction to now, none of the construction brothers has left here, and they are not allowed to communicate with their family members. There are people disguised as workers and ordinary people patrolling around 24 hours a day. There are also several wolf dogs on the construction site.

I don't know if there was a leak, I just know that, as far as I know, nothing has leaked and I'm pretty confident about it!"

Yang Jiang added next to it: "According to our close reconnaissance of the Japanese military headquarters for several days, the Japanese army has not moved. It is basically certain that the Japanese army has not noticed that a tunnel is being dug under their buttocks!"

"You guys did a great job!" Jiang Weiguo punched Kan Weiyong, "Once the Shanghai war started, the first contribution belongs to your engineers!"

Kan Weiyong smiled: "It's all about serving the country!" He looked at Jiang Weiguo and said sincerely, "Second son, although the engineers seem to be mediocre, they don't seem to have armored soldiers, artillery, or communication soldiers. So technical, but it is indeed an indispensable and important arm in modern warfare and modern army, especially the mechanized army, which needs the assistance of engineers even more.

Second son, the engineering troops of the national army are still weak and have not been valued for a long time. I hope you can talk to the chairman and ask the high-level officials to pay attention to the construction and development of the engineering troops!"

Jiang Weiguo laughed: "After you engineers have made such great achievements, are you still afraid that my father and the high-level national army will not pay attention to engineers?"

Kan Weiyong understood, and his eyes were bright: "Don't worry! Our engineers and soldiers will not let you and the Chairman down!"

"When will it be fully completed?" Jiang Weiguo finally asked.

Kan Weiyong thought for a while, and gave an affirmative and accurate answer: "It will be fully completed within a week!"

Jiang Weiguo's heart suddenly moved. Today is August 8th, and a week later it will be August 5th. The "Battle of Songhu" in history broke out on August 8th (August 13th Incident).

"Is this a coincidence somewhere? Is it God's will?" Jiang Weiguo thought to himself, a kind of solemnity surged in his heart, "If this is really God's will, then, ancestors of the Chinese nation, please rest assured , I will not let you down!" At this moment, Jiang Weiguo felt that the ancestors were watching him.

After announcing that 30 oceans would be rewarded to all the engineers who participated in the plan after the success of the plan, Jiang Weiguo returned satisfied amidst the cheers that the engineers couldn't help but hurriedly covered their mouths with their hands.

The Pingjin front line needs to hit the ground running, and the Songhu front line also needs to do the same.
