At this moment, everyone was in danger in the headquarters of the Mei agency in Shencheng. Ying Zuozhen Zhao looked back and forth at the sight of his sword.

"Waste! They are all a group of incompetent waste. Such a large cargo ship sailed into the Yangtze River, why no one reported it?"

Nanzao Yunzi stood up and said, "Colonel, the operation to seal the river against the empire is very strict this time, and no one in the government except Chiang Kai-shek knew about it. Moreover, the cruise ship was wearing the American Empire flag. We never thought that Wu Siren could do such a big move. This person is too insidious..."

"Excuses are all excuses!" Ying Zuo Zhenao interrupted Nanzao Yunzi loudly and asked in a cold voice: "How is the progress of recruiting close to the imperial personnel within the National Government?"

"They are all marginal figures, and the officials in high positions are waiting and watching. Since Feng Zixiong and Huang Jun were killed by Wu Saren and Dai Chunfeng, many important officials in the government who were close to the empire have begun to retreat and choose to protect themselves and wait and see."

Nan Zao Yunzi's voice was full of helplessness. She now wanted to eat meat and sleep. Her years of hard work and management were uprooted by Wu Siren, making the Japanese people blind before they even started the war.

Ying Zuo Zhenao slowly came to Nanzao Yunzi and said solemnly: "We must rebuild the intelligence network within the government as soon as possible. The empire has achieved great victory in North China. The next step is to occupy Shencheng and conquer China within three months. Our intelligence department must not drag the empire back. As for Wu Saoren, he will be killed at all costs."

"Hi!"

Nan Zao Yunzi bowed deeply and went down to start the arrangement.

In the cave in Yanzhou, after reading the battle report delivered by the city of Jiangcheng, the chairman excitedly hit the table.

"Okay! The battle was really beautiful. At the time when the entire North China fell, Wu Siren's battle greatly encouraged the morale of the Chinese people."

After picking up the worn-out teapot and drinking a big sip of water, the commander-in-chief said happily: "I didn't expect that Jiang Jiang would be so courageous. I thought he needed to think repeatedly to make up this decision!"

The chairman smiled and said, "I guess Mr. Chiang was convinced that Wu Siren was able to take the initiative. The vice chairman admired us, the new national hero, very much. He called and said that he had the style of Yue Wu Mu, and could be said to be both civil and military."

The commander-in-chief asked hurriedly: "Then we..."

"It's not time yet." The Chairman said with a smile: "As long as you have like-minded people and devote yourself to the nation-state, you will sooner or later come together."

The stars and moon are gone late at night, like a stove, Jinling is wet and stuffy, and a storm is obviously not far away.

In the conference room of the Presidential Palace in Jinling, the room was not as dull as air conditioners were installed, and many generals gathered together to discuss military information.

Xu Yan, the Major General Director of the Second Department of the General Staff Headquarters, reported: "Sometimes, Japan has accelerated its military increase in Shanghai, and it has now increased to 10,000. My 87th and 88th Divisions have also changed into security team costumes and secretly entered strategic locations such as Hongqiao Airport and are ready to go."

Old Jiang pondered for a moment and asked, "Has Minister Song's negotiations with Japan made no progress yet?"

Xu Yanmou shouted: "Minister Song just replied that Japan must hand over General Wu Siren who 'provoked the war for no reason', and release our captured Japanese Marines without reason, and give all the expatriates in Jiangcheng out of the country and compensate for their losses, and ask us to publicly apologize."

Feng Huanzhang's face changed and he cursed: "It's outrageous. He ran to someone else's house to kill and set fire. They still have some reason. He also asked us to hand over the silence. These Japanese devils have no good intentions at all."

Bai Jiansheng looked at Wu Siren, who was blowing his face with a breeze beside him and laughed: "Brother Moran, it seems that this Japanese devil has hated you to the core. He wants to get rid of you quickly at all times!

"This is my honor, and I hope they will hate me even more in the future!" Wu Siren chuckled.

Jiang Fangzhen joked: "The radio and newspapers have been exciting these two days. Your battle not only hit Japan's arrogance, but also made the people of the country very angry. You are now the idol of thousands of girls."

He Jingzhi was extremely disgusted with Wu Siren. He still remembered the panic period of being under house arrest. If possible, he really hoped that Chiang Kai-shek could hand over Wu Siren to the Japanese to deal with it.

He Jingzhi coughed lightly and reminded: "Everyone, let's go back to the main topic first, how to deal with the Japanese army in Shencheng! I think the captured ships and Japanese expatriates can be sent back to Japan to show our sincerity in negotiations. Our ultimate goal is to promote peace and force Japanese people to return to the negotiating table. If the Japanese side is completely angered, once the gate of peace is closed, there will be a situation between the two countries."

Tang Mengxiao agreed: "Brother Jingzhi's words are reasonable. We should fully express our kindness to Japan and temporarily establish a contract with them. As for the current national conditions of China, resting and waiting for the future is the most correct way."

Chiang Kai-shek couldn't decide in his heart. He knew that he had to fight Japan, but was afraid that the war would expand and harm his own interests, so he turned his attention to Zhang Wenbai.

"Wen Bai, tell me about the preparations for the war in Songhu."

Zhang Wenbai stood up and said solemnly: "At present, schools, hospitals, factories and other departments in Shencheng have all withdrawn. We plan to use three divisions to encircle and annihilate the East Japan Army in Zhabei at the beginning of the war, and then divide them into three aspects along the river and the coast to block the enemy from landing, and encircle and annihilate them from landing enemies. If the war is unfavorable, we will retreat one after another and confront the enemy to ensure that the defense line from Zhapu to Jiangyin is not lost, so as to protect the safety of the capital."

Lao Jiang nodded and said, "Should you show me the specific plan you have formulated, and you will discuss it later when the meeting is held."

Jiang Fangzhen stood up and asked, "Wen Bai, is it realistic to implement near-shore defense in the face of a third-ranked naval power in the world? Once we cannot achieve the expected goal after launching an attack in Shencheng, the front-line soldiers will definitely be bombarded by the large-caliber naval guns of the Japanese Navy. What should we use to defend? I still advocate not defending Shencheng, putting the Japanese army in, exchanging space for time, and using the long front to consume the enemy's strength, and eventually defeating Japan."

Lao Jiang said helplessly: "Baili Gong, Shencheng is not only the largest city in China, but also an international metropolis. It is related to the appearance of China and the international view is very important. If a war starts in Shencheng, it will inevitably involve the interests of European and American countries in Shanghai, prompting major powers such as the United States, Britain or international organizations to intervene in mediation. In this way, the overall resolution of the dispute between China and Japan can also ensure the existing sovereignty and administrative territorial integrity. Therefore, Shencheng is not a question of whether to fight or not, but how to fight well and hurt Japan, so that we can gain the upper hand in peace talks."

Feng Huanzhang frowned and said bluntly: "If Europe, the United States and other countries want to interfere, they will interfere when the war between Pingjin begins. In my opinion, the great powers are not trustworthy. They will never take the interests of China as bargaining chips with Japan. We can be betrayed at any time. Looking at the late Qing Dynasty, this has not been the case."

Old Jiang was a little unhappy and stood up and said, "Let's stop here today! Everyone go back early to rest, and I'll talk about anything tomorrow."

After saying that, he turned around and left without waiting for everyone's reaction.
