Since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Li Shenggong left northern Shaanxi and returned to familiar places such as the Demon Capital and Jinling, and served as the Secretary-General of the Yangtze River Bureau.

After reading the newspaper, he suddenly understood everything!

"It turns out that Young Master Qin, who is infamous, has been silently supporting our work! Since he took charge of the Qin family more than ten years ago, only he can do this kind of thing to sell medicine at a discount! If someone else did it, how could he escape his supervision? And the radio station he provided back then, you must not forget this matter..."

In addition, as the secretary-general of the Yangtze River Bureau, he had received a report from General Migu, saying that the Qin family donated a batch of guns, drugs, gold and US dollars.

He thought about Xu for a while and said intimately: "It seems that it's time to send someone to contact Mr. Qin head-on! Who should I leave this matter to better keep it confidential?"

He checked the internal information for a long time, and finally chose Han Jiang.

Han Jiang is an old party member, low-key and trustworthy.

So Li Shenggong wrote a letter, sealed it, and asked Han Jiang to give it to Qin Di.

Qin Di opened the letter and looked at it, and said to Han Jiang: "In three months, there will be a cargo ship carrying 1,300 tons, hangs the American flag, and arrives at Minqiao Town, Gaoyou Lake. You prepare a company soldier to transport supplies there."

Han Jiang asked tentatively: "Mr. Qin, can you reveal what supplies are there?"

Qin Di said: "I put 10,000 rifles in the cabin and equipped with 300 boxes of bullets. Buried under the whole ship of soybeans. You can take people to move all the supplies away and put the empty ship back."

Han Jiang's heart was beating wildly, and his breathing was almost stagnant!

10,000 rifles! This was the spring of 1938, and the entire Xinhua Army had only more than 10,000 people! Moreover, if it was a large-scale combat, the rifle was much more useful than the pistol! The pistol had a short range and was not easy to set up an ambush.

Han Jiang said: "Mr. Qin, thank you. The Xinhua Army is not afraid of lack of clothing and food, but is afraid of lack of guns and ammunition! You have helped a lot."

Qin Di smiled and said, "This matter must be hidden and not leaked, otherwise I will have big trouble!"

Han Jiang said: "I understand, Mr. Qin, don't worry."

Qin Di thought to himself: "You don't understand! What I am afraid of is to bear the cause and effect, and be struck by the sky by lightning! If there is another heavenly tribulation, it may take my life!" Because the soldiers of the Xinhua Army are all good, if each person fires a good gun, they will burst out with amazing combat power, which may change the situation of the battle. If there is a backlash from the way of heaven, he will bear it!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh: "Oh, it's so hard for me!"

Han Jiang thought he was suffering between the two parties, so he comforted him: "Mr. Qin, now it is the national war of resistance. No matter which side you give, it is to drive away the Japanese."

Qin Di shook his head slightly, not giving any more explanation.

After Han Jiang left, Qin Di sat there and thought for a while.

He felt that he had done everything he should do, so he called Yan Xue, left the Demon City, and went to the small world of Wuyi Mountain to practice.

In the following months, the Japanese army rushed around like mad dogs.

On April 18, he attacked Xuzhou. On the 19th, he captured Linyi. On May 11th, he captured Xiamen. On the 13th, he captured Hefei.

On May 16, Chen Cheng held a foreign press conference in Hankou to expose the use of poison gas by the Japanese army, which harmed Chinese military and civilians. This shows how crazy the Japanese army is. Although guns have a huge advantage, they even use poison gas bombs!

At 7 pm on the 17th, Li Zongren led his headquarters to break through from Xuzhou. On the 19th, the Japanese army captured Xuzhou. On the 23rd, they captured Lanfeng. On the 29th, they captured Guide.

On June 1, Mr. Qing held the Supreme Military Conference in Wuhan, deciding that the eastern Henan defenders would make a strategic transfer to the mountains in western Henan. At the same time, he secretly decided to decide the Yellow River embankment to block the Japanese army's advance westward, and appointed Shang Zhen, commander-in-chief of the 20th Army, to supervise the implementation of the work.

In the early morning of the 6th, the 14th Japanese Division destroyed the northern city of Kaifeng with heavy artillery, and then used tanks to cover infantry into the city, and then captured Kaifeng.

On June 9, the Yellow River at Huayuankou broke its mouth, and the rushing river water quickly leaked. It was the rainy season that the river water in the upper reaches of the Yellow River surged, and the breach at Huayuankou was quickly washed away, and the silted Zhaokou was also washed away by heavy water.

The two floods of Zhaokou and Huayuankou merged together, like wild horses that rush down, the Yellow River water rushing down, rolled up huge waves. After 4 days and 4 nights, the river water that rushes from west to east broke the Longhai Railway and flows to the southeast of Henan. It flooded Zhongmu, Weishi, Fugou, Xihua, Huaiyang and other places, and then passed through the Yinghe and Xifeihe Rivers, poured into the Huaihe River upstream, flooding the embankment of the Huaihe River and breaking the Huaihe Railway Bridge near Bengbu. Bengbu went north through Cao Laoji to Suxian, and also became a vast ocean.

The entire Yellow River Flood Zone is from northwest to southeast, and is more than 400 kilometers long, flowing through more than 300,000 square kilometers of 44 counties in Henan, Anhui and Jiangsu provinces, causing immeasurable losses to the lives and property of the people in this area. According to incomplete statistics, more than 1.4 million houses of private houses in Henan were destroyed, more than 8 million mu of arable land were flooded, and more than 11 million mu of arable land in Anhui and Jiangsu were flooded, and 4.8 million people lost their property. More than 89 million people were caught off guard, buried in fish belly, and tens of millions of people were displaced...

The dam at Huayuankou burst the dam, which poured billions of tons of silt of the Yellow River into the plains along the breach, silting rivers, flooding fields, overflowing lakes, blocking traffic and shipping, forming a vast yellow flood area that travels through 44 counties in Henan, Anhui and Jiangsu provinces. During the flood every year, the yellow water will flood and flow backwards, flooding farmlands. After the flood, there will be locust plagues, with sand dunes everywhere, and the surface is suddenly concave and concave, which cannot be cultivated at all, causing serious damage to local agriculture. This triggered the famous "Henan Famine", and tens of millions of people became refugees, and 3 million farmers died of hunger in Henan alone.

After the dam broke, the Japanese army that broke into eastern Henan caught off guard against the rushing Yellow River. Some were flooded by floods, some were abandoned due to injuries, and some were annihilated by the Chinese army. Others had to stop pursuing and gather east of the Yellow River.

The Diary of Dongshilang is recorded in the morning, just as he put on a pot to eat breakfast, the army received an order of "the enemy blows up the Yellow River embankment, and the brigade evacuated in time". The soldiers moved urgently. Without running two steps, they found a turbulent turbid current rolling in, washing away villages..." The diary for more than ten days later recorded the situation where the Japanese army and the logistics forces lost contact, cut off supplies, and were chased by the Chinese army. The frightened soldiers such as Dongshilang boarded the train and retreated all the way to Anhui.

Within a month after the Huayuankou broke the dike, the Chinese army launched a counterattack, and the Japanese army in eastern Henan were basically eliminated, and the Japanese army was forced to flee to the junction of Henan and Anhui.

Later, the Japanese army admitted that they had "had suffered considerable losses". Judging from the materials disclosed by China and Japan, this number was about 7,000 people.

The heavy blow to the Japanese army caused by the Yellow River's damaging dam was not only the reduction of the occupied areas and the reduction of troops, but also the far-reaching impact was that the Japanese army's expected offensive route was broken. The battlefield in eastern Henan gradually cooled down, and the new Yellow River crossing the eastern Henan plain became a military dividing line, blocking the Japanese army to the east of the Yellow River. It was not until 1944 that Japan launched the battle to open up the mainland transportation line that Zhengzhou was captured by them.
