Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

When the people at the scene heard the director say this, they were immediately excited and became lively.

After a long while, Yanying asked in an exaggerated tone:

"Director, this isn't right. As far as I know, the Shanghai Military Police Headquarters has a full battalion of troops. Even with such tight defenses, they were still attacked. Are those military police officers pigs?"

"By the way, have the attackers been caught? I want to see who they are to be so bold as to attack the Shanghai Military Police Headquarters."

In fact, the latter sentence was his purpose, which was to gather some intelligence and summarize it for analysis by his superiors.

He is a senior undercover intelligence agent who is very good at collecting intelligence from conversations. He can also do it without leaving any trace and without attracting anyone's attention.

In the past, he might not have asked so obviously, or even been a invisible person in every meeting, so as to minimize his presence.

But tonight, everyone present was shocked. Everyone was worried about their future and didn't care about these things at all.

Captain Song, standing nearby, took the opportunity to chime in, "According to our intelligence, the effective range of a 60mm round is around two kilometers. Doesn't this mean we'll have to expand our defense perimeter beyond two kilometers? A defense at this level becomes exponentially more difficult."

Some things are just like that. If there hadn't been an incident like the shelling of the enemy gendarmerie headquarters, no one would have worried about the safety of their own base at all.

Relying on the reputation of No. 76, no, it should be a fierce reputation, a bad reputation, the kind that even makes babies afraid to cry loudly after hearing it.

Ordinary people don't even have the courage to get close to this place. Even the prestigious Military Intelligence Bureau and the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics would not mobilize heavy troops to attack the heavily guarded Operations Department 6 of the No. 76 Special Agent Headquarters.

This is a completely losing business. The agents of the Military Control Commission are mainly responsible for collecting intelligence and eliminating traitors and collaborators. These operations are carried out outside in order to cause the greatest damage to the enemy at the lowest cost.

But now if we have mortars that can attack from a long distance, our attack range will be increased by dozens of times, and the enemy's defense range will also be expanded by dozens of times. This increase and decrease is equivalent to indirectly delaying a large number of the enemy's mobile forces.

However, Yanying smiled and said, "Old Song, please don't flatter us in the Sixth Department. A small department like ours is not worth the other party using heavy weapons against us."

"If I had a mortar, I would have bombed the 76th Headquarters, or the Special High Section and the Mei Agency. Those people are more sinful than us."

"So everyone should just be at ease. We, the Sixth Department, are not that important. It's not worth using such means against us."

Although he has emphasized this and the people present agree with this statement, it is better to be safe than sorry.

There is no absoluteness in this kind of thing. If the people in the Sixth Department do too many immoral things or cause great public resentment, it is not impossible for them to be hit by a few bullets on the head.

When we thought about this, we made up our minds to be more careful when doing things in the future. We should never force ourselves to do things if we can just do it perfunctorily. It is best to just muddle through.

After all, they became traitors to make money, not to lose their lives. If they really had the courage to not fear death, they might as well stand up and fight the Japanese. Even if they died on the battlefield, they could gain a good reputation that would be passed down through the ages.

Traitors like them are the most afraid of death and would never do such a thankless task.

After hearing this, Director Yu first glanced at Yan Ying, and then continued:

"Headquarters No. 76 was also bombarded just now. Luckily, it was nighttime and the bosses were away. The fifteen shells only killed a few officers on duty and some guards, but there wasn't much damage otherwise."

"But this also gave everyone a big shock. Director Li and the others have been transferred to the secret base. We are asked not to go to the headquarters until this matter is resolved."

"In addition to these two locations, there are two other key military locations in Shanghai. This mysterious unit has taken out five mortars at once. I have to say it's really generous."

When everyone heard that there were four shelling incidents tonight, their faces suddenly turned pale.

Originally they all thought that this was just an isolated incident. If it was just one mortar, the probability of their six locations being bombarded was actually not high. But now there are five mortars. They must be very low-key in the future. If they are targeted, they will be skinned alive if not killed.

Yanying wanted to confuse things tonight, so he asked curiously:

"Do you find this a bit strange? Why do these mysterious people fire fifteen mortar shells? Is there any reason for this?"

After hearing this, the new captain of the third team immediately explained:

"I know about this. I served in the National Army for a long time before changing careers due to some unforeseen circumstances."

"In the military, there's something called rapid-fire mortars. It's about firing shells as quickly as possible in a short period of time. A good mortar operator can fire fifteen shells in two minutes."

"However, this tactic is generally only used when the enemy is charging, and it is rarely used by the Nationalist Army. This is mainly because mortars are a rare heavy weapon for an army, and the number of ammunition they are issued is very small. They are generally only used at critical moments, such as to destroy the enemy's light and heavy machine gun positions."

"It seems that there are experts in this field among these attackers, and they are proficient in mortar rapid-fire technology. This will cause big trouble for us."

After hearing this, everyone looked at each other, and everyone's heart was filled with endless worry.

The shelling ended in three minutes, and even if the time for personnel to evacuate was added, ten minutes was more than enough.

In such a short time, they probably didn't even figure out the direction of the shelling. Besides, even if they knew, it would be useless. Who would dare to go out at that time without being afraid of being shot by a sniper rifle?

Now they are in big trouble, and there is no good countermeasure so far.

Obviously, Director Yu also thought of this. Although he also believed that given the status of the Sixth Department, the probability of being bombarded was not high, what if?

So he quickly said, "Captain Liu, since you understand artillery matters, you should lead the formation of a special operations team. Get a few artillerymen from the army to be responsible for the security of the department."

"I don't have any big demands. I just want to ensure the safety of the office. I don't want to live in fear that a bomb will fall on my head one day."

"Within a three-kilometer radius around our location, find all suitable locations for building mortar positions."
