Seeing that Wan Pingfei was still alive, the little guy jumped to his side and stuffed Thompson into Wan Pingfei's arms, shouting excitedly.
" That's great! You're still alive, sir. You asked me to send a letter to Chief Lin. Chief Lin didn't abandon us at all. He brought his brothers back to save us, sob…"
Zhang Quan also pounced in front of Wan Pingfei and burst into tears.
He took the appointment order given by Wan Pingfei and rushed towards the Nanxiang train station. He didn't run far when he met Lin Feng who was rushing over. After explaining the general situation to Lin Feng, Lin Feng rushed over to the river bank without saying anything.
Fortunately, Lin Feng was quick enough to save Wan Pingfei at the last moment.
However, Wan Pingfei couldn't care less about Zhang Quan at this moment. His eyes were completely attracted by the new weapons in the hands of the soldiers, and he even forgot the pain of his wounds.
"Sir, this gun is so useful. It's all thanks to us that we managed to seize this batch of new weapons. If the Japanese had taken it, many of our brothers would have died in their hands!”
A few soldiers carried Wan Pingfei out of the pile of Japanese corpses and praised the new weapon in their hands.
Wan Pingfei's mind went blank as he looked at the brand new Thompson submachine guns and M1 Garand rifles.
Wan Pingfei knew a lot about firearms. On the contrary, he was very familiar with firearms from all over the world.
This was clearly an American gun. How could it be a new Japanese weapon?
Could it be that the Japanese had imported new weapons from the United States? Could it be that the United States had lifted the arms ban on the Japanese?
If that was really the case, with the weapons of the Americans, the strength of China and Japan would be even greater!
A series of questions flashed through Wan Pingfei's mind.
" No, we must report this situation to the command center immediately. We must use diplomatic means to get the UA to ban the export of weapons to Japan. Cough cough…"
Wan Pingfei couldn't care less about his injuries and coughed out a mouthful of blood.
"Nonsense! Why aren't you bandaging the Chief of Staff's wound?”
At this moment, Lin Feng turned back from the front and kicked the buttocks of the few soldiers surrounding Wan Pingfei.
Wan Pingfei's injuries weren't light. If he delayed any longer, he would definitely bleed to death.
The few soldiers were not angry after being kicked by Lin Feng. Instead, they smiled foolishly as if they had gotten something cheap.
" L-Brother Lin, this batch of American firearms is very important. We must report this news to the commanding officer. We must…"
Wan Pingfei coughed up blood and was about to die, but he still insisted on holding on. Lin Feng was so scared that he quickly held him and said,"Don't worry, recuperate first. I'll definitely send someone to report this information!”
After hearing Lin Feng's affirmative answer, Wan Pingfei heaved a sigh of relief and lay down on the stretcher that had been prepared.
Lin Feng looked at Wan Pingfei on the stretcher. He had more than a dozen wounds all over his body and was about to lose his life, but he still did not forget to analyze every detail. He could not help but be slightly moved.
When Wan Pingfei saw the Thompson submachine guns in the soldiers 'hands, he thought that the Americans had lifted the arms ban on Japan.
In fact, his worries were unnecessary. Not only would the arms embargoes be lifted, but they would also become stricter. In the end, the trade and oil embargoes would force Japan to declare war on the United States and attack Pearl Harbor.
Lin Feng only considered the performance of the firearms, and all of them were equipped with Thompson and M1 rifles. Unexpectedly, this detail made Wan Pingfei realize that the United States had lifted the ban on the export of weapons to Japan. It had to be said that Wan Pingfei was born to be a chief of staff!
……
In Shanghai, on the second floor of a Western-style building by the Huangpu River, Shen Mengyao had not slept for two days and two nights. She had just finished translating a message and was about to take a nap in her chair when she was woken up by Xiao Liu, the radio operator, who pushed the door open.
"Division Chief Shen, we've detected a large number of messages from the Japanese army!”
For the past two days, especially during this one day and one night, the Japanese's dispatch headquarters in Shanghai had been in a state of chaos.
"Is the message still surrounding Nanxiang Station?”
Shen Mengyao rubbed her sore neck. Her snow-white neck and exquisite collarbone would make anyone's heart flutter.
The radio operator, Xiao Liu, was a young girl who had just arrived in Shanghai not long ago. She was from the youth training class. She looked at Shen Mengyao's graceful figure and quickly retracted her gaze."From the Japanese message that we deciphered, it seems that there is a big shot in the Japanese army who is trapped in Nanxiang train station.”
Shen Mengyao had already guessed the situation that Xiao Liu was talking about. As a spy, if she didn't even have this intuition, she wouldn't be able to do it.
However, the main force of the national army had already retreated to Changzhou. Nanxiang Station was located in the area of Liujiaxing Town, east of Suzhou. There were no national troops there. Even if a big shot from Japan passed through here, who could threaten him?
"But…"
Seeing that Shen Mengyao was deep in thought, Xiao Liu swallowed the words he wanted to say.
"But what? Why are you hesitating now?”
Shen Mengyao's almond-shaped eyes widened, and a trace of heroic spirit appeared on her brows.
"Just now, we received a telegram from a national army, but…"
The radio operator Xiao Liu bit his lower lip, his voice getting softer and softer.
"Telegrams from the army? Weird, why did the military send a telegram to us? Is there an established national military combat organization near Shanghai?”
Shen Mengyao's heart tightened. If there was still a military unit near Shanghai, she had to think of a way to evacuate this unit to a safe place.
Now, except for the concession, Shanghai was completely controlled by the Japanese. If it weren't for the fact that the situation was extremely dangerous, this scattered national army would definitely not risk sending a message to their military commander.
One had to know that if their commander could receive this telegram, it meant that the Japanese's special technology would also intercept this telegram!
"Section Chief Shen, I don't know what's going on either. Why don't you take a look yourself?”
The radio operator Xiao Liu really didn't know what to say because this message sent by the army was translated using a password and wasn't top secret. After she received it, she translated it as an ordinary message.
However, the content of the translation scared her so much that she had no choice but to report it to Shen Mengyao.
As he spoke, the radio operator Xiao Liu took out a translated message from behind him and handed it to Shen Mengyao.
Shen Mengyao had thought that this would be a message asking for help, but she was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a long time.
"I don't know if there are any friendly troops nearby. Our radio station is unable to send a message to the Changzhou Theater of Operations due to power issues. The 140th Brigade of the 160th Division of the 66th Army, the 1st Battalion of the brigade, successfully attacked Nanxiang Station at the front line of Liujiaxing Town, killing a total of 361 Japanese soldiers, including General Shouichi Terauchi.
Later, on the outskirts of Liujiaxing Town, they heavily injured the Japanese army's 3rd Division, 5th Brigade, and 2nd Brigade who were assisting Nanxiang Station. They killed a total of 763 Japanese soldiers, including the captain.”
At the end of the message was a striking name-Battalion Commander Lin Feng!
