Zhou Shiji asked with a bitter face.

"The casualty ratio between the national army and the Japanese army is five to one. When the casualty ratio between the 26th Army and the Japanese army is one to five and fifty-five, you can remove the word agent."

Liang Xiao said.

"Aren't you kidding me? The little devil's army is so good at fighting. From the soldiers to the officers, they all believe in the bullshit samurai spirit. Moreover, this little devil's marksmanship is not bad. Let our 26th army compete with them Five 55, isn't this a difficult task for a strong man?"

Zhou Shiji said with a bitter face.

"Whether it is difficult for others, we will know later."

Liang Xiao hehe smiled.

"Boss, I have something to say."

Cao Xian stood up and said.

"Say"

Liang Xiao signaled him to say.

Cao Xian got up and said: "The new tenth army is full of recruits. Although they have been trained for more than three months, they have never been on the battlefield. If they are not led by veterans with rich combat experience, it will be very difficult in a short period of time. Consolidate the combat power, so I propose to transfer a group of company and platoon leaders and combat-experienced veterans from the 26th Army to supplement the new Tenth Army to enhance the combat effectiveness of the new Tenth Army.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Chang Zhenguo stood up immediately, and said: "President, the idea of ​​humble post is the same as that of Commander Cao. The new eleventh army has never been on the battlefield. It needs veterans with excellent military qualities and rich command experience. From the perspective of humble positions, we might as well draw a group of grassroots commanders and combat-experienced veterans from the 26th Army.”

"What do you two want to do, poach the corner, I tell you two, this is impossible, the officers and soldiers of the 26th Army are all German guns: the baby lump that was fed, I just gave it to you so casually, and I will go to the hospital later After leaving the battlefield, do you two still have to challenge me?”

Zhou Shiji was immediately unhappy.

"Army Commander Zhou, as the saying goes, a married lady will be given a dowry girl by her natal family. Our two majestic major generals will serve in the new Tenth Army and the No. 11 Army. As the natal family, shouldn't the 26th Army be Pay us some dowry, we can't let us both go empty-handed."

Cao Xiandao.

"Shut up, what a mess, look at you, all of you are high-ranking generals who command tens of thousands of people, ladies and maids, people think we are here for marriage."

Liang Xiao said angrily.

"Boss, you can have a bowl of water. Although these two armies are newly formed, they are all your subordinates. If we really want to go to the battlefield, you can't watch us have diarrhea."

Changzhen State Road.

"okay."

Liang Xiao waved his hand and said: "I have considered this matter for a long time. In a few days, the Central Military Academy will come to a group of outstanding military academy graduates. These... graduates will be added to the two of you. In addition, I plan to transfer more than 26 officers and combat-experienced veterans from the 3000th Army to add to the new Tenth Army and No.11 Army to strengthen the combat effectiveness of the Tenth Army and No.11 Army.”

"Then the equipment of our two armies"

Cao Xian's eyes were filled with enthusiastic anticipation.

"In the official rifle, each army is equipped with 150 mortars, 200 mountain guns, and more than [-] machine guns of various types..."

After Liang Xiao finished speaking, he watched the reactions of his officers.

Chapter 188 Strictly abide by the duties of a soldier, Tang Menghan

Cao Xian and Chang Zhenguo didn't expect too much about the equipment of the newly formed army. Although they were a little disappointed when they heard that it was an official rifle, it was also expected.

"The training of the newly formed two armies must be fastened. As the saying goes, you sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime. Our soldiers are raised by fathers and mothers, and they are all living lives. We cannot let them lose their lives in vain on the battlefield. "

Liang Xiao said.

"Commander, don't worry, we will pay close attention to the training of the new army."

Cao Xiandao.

Liang Xiao nodded, and continued: "About the appointment of middle and lower-level commanders of the two new armies, the group army headquarters will draw up a list within a few days."

"Yes."

Cao Xian and Chang Zhenguo replied.

"You all go back first and train your troops well. It is estimated that there will be a large-scale vicious battle in a short time. This battle can be said to be related to our life and death. Please be sure to prepare before the battle."

Liang Xiao said with a solemn expression.

"clear."

All the generals stood up and said.

Liang Xiao nodded slightly, got up and left the meeting room.

There are many things in front of him now. The first priority is to go to Kaifeng to arrest Han Fuqu, and then go to Shandong to organize the Shandong troops into the battle order of the Central Army. When everything recovers, the Japanese navy will land again from the Yangtze River Basin. This will be a huge test for the Nanjing garrison he led. This time in the Battle of Songhu, he has neither reinforcements nor enough ordnance, but he has to persist In the end, because he knew very well that once he gave up the entire Jiangnan, it would be tantamount to giving up the supply lines of the coastal ports, and it was absolutely impossible to connect the Japanese occupied area from south to north. Therefore, even if the chances were slim, he would It is necessary to fight a hearty battle with the Japanese army in Nanjing.

"Adjutant Chen, call Tang Menghan here."

When Liang Xiao returned to the office, the first thing he did was... find Tang Menghan, the confidential secretary in charge of receiving military intelligence reports.

A little while.

Tang Menghan walked in heroically, wearing a captain's uniform and long leather boots.

"Secretary, what do you order me to pass on a humble job?"

Tang Menghan said seriously.

Liang Xiao's expression was very serious. After seeing Tang Menghan's serious expression, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he asked, "Does the Shanghai Assassination Team have any important information?"

"The assassination team sent a secret report last night. It is suspected that our intelligence personnel are searching for information on Hongqiao Airport. Please inform the headquarters."

"Shanghai Station sent a confidential telegram this morning, suspecting that Shanghai's financial market has been damaged. Some people deliberately forged counterfeit currency, disrupted the currency system, and caused the yen to fall rapidly."

"Shanghai's underground intelligence group Pheasant sent a confidential letter, the backbone of the account is under the order of Qingzitang, asking for instructions on the next development direction."

"Shanghai Economic Team sent a secret report that several counterfeit money manufacturing sites in downtown Shanghai have started operation, and a large number of counterfeit money has flowed into the financial market, which not only set off a storm in the financial market, but also plundered a large number of wealthy people for the War of Resistance , Please send people from the headquarters to Hong Kong immediately to withdraw all deposits from HSBC Bank for military use.”

"........."

Tang Menghan uttered one piece of information after another, and Liang Xiao nodded frequently. During this period of time, he finally heard good news.

Since the new year, the Japanese special agencies have frequently taken action to suppress Shanghai's intelligence forces. However, the Shanghai Station and the underground assassination team and other departments have prepared in advance. There are no casualties. Only two peripheral traffic officers showed their whereabouts and died heroically.

On the intelligence front, Liang Xiao has always emphasized two words, cautious, only careful can make the Wannian ship. On this issue, the Shanghai station has done a good job. Although there are no major achievements and achievements, the personnel There is nothing to lose in terms of it. As the saying goes, as long as the green hills are preserved, there is no fear of running out of firewood. What's more, Japan has only occupied Shanghai for half a year, and it is wishful thinking to completely conquer the largest city in the Far East in a short time.

With the intelligence power he left in Shanghai, it was enough to exhaust the Japanese intelligence agencies. In addition, he could effectively contain the Japanese army in Central China so that they would not dare to leave Shanghai easily.

"Call back the assassination team and tell them to keep an eye on Hongqiao Airport, but don't interfere."

"Call back to the Shanghai station. The yen has fallen rapidly. This is a good thing. You should make more fuss about finance during the fall of the yen, so that the Japanese have no time to take care of other things."

"Call back the economic team. I've heard of the call. We will send reliable people to Hong Kong to withdraw money within a few days. During the operation, your team members should pay attention to their own safety. If you have any needs, please call the headquarters at any time."

Liang Xiao quickly gave instructions. Shanghai is the number one city in the Far East, and it is also the world's intelligence center. His intelligence forces in Shanghai can be said to spread throughout the entire Shanghai beach. Whenever there is a trouble in the Japanese, he will know it immediately. However, He is no longer satisfied with obtaining information from the Japanese, he wants to turn Shanghai into an intelligence battlefield, let killings fill the beach, make death possible at any time, and make the Japanese who enter Shanghai feel fear from the bottom of their hearts.

"Yes, I will send the report immediately."

Tang Menghan's crisp voice sounded.

"Wait a minute, I haven't noticed it for a while, Miss Tang looks a bit like a soldier."

Liang Xiao laughed teasingly.

"In the bureau, the Japanese invaded and the whole country resisted the war. As a soldier, I should strictly abide by my duties as a soldier."

Tang Menghan said.

"Not bad, it seems that the training at the beginning was not wasted."

Liang Xiao praised.

"If there's nothing wrong with the office seat, I'll go down to my humble job and get busy."

A trace of panic flashed across Tang Menghan's eyes, and he hurriedly turned his eyes away from Liang Xiao.

"What are you in a hurry for? I haven't chatted with you for a while. While I still have some time, let's chat."

Liang Xiao laughed.

"Is the bureau seat looking for someone to chat with?"

Tang Menghan said.

"There's so much nonsense, just... just chatting casually."

Liang Xiao leaned on the chair and smiled, "How long have you been the confidential secretary?"

"Seven July months and twelve days."

Tang Menghan blurted out.

"Remember so clearly"

Liang Xiao was a little surprised. With her temperament, she was able to remember her days as a confidential secretary so clearly, which is really impressive.

"Humble workers tell themselves every day that they should fulfill their military duties and contribute to our nation."

Tang Menghan said.

"you've changed."

Liang Xiao said slowly.

"The humble job hasn't changed, it's just...not so childish anymore."

Tang Menghan said.

"When I say you have changed, I don't mean that your head has changed, but that the place in front of you has changed and grown bigger."

Liang Xiao said and made gestures in front of him.

Chapter 189 Kaifeng Military Conference

Tang Menghan saw the place where Liang Xiao gestured, and instantly blushed with embarrassment.

"you......."

Tang Menghan pursed her lips, ready to scold Liang Xiao for being a rascal, but remembered that he is now the commander of the lieutenant general, with an army of 10,000+, and the real power of the Military Command Bureau, who controls the military intelligence system in the area south of the Yangtze River. His immediate boss....... "Okay, go down and get busy, just to tease you."

Liang Xiao smiled slightly and waved his hand.

"Yes."

Tang Menghan walked out of the office angrily, looked down, and thought that the front was not much bigger, it was about the same size as before, maybe it was because she was wearing an armed belt today, and the lower abdomen was strangled, so the top looked bigger.

In the office, Liang Xiao shook his head slightly. Tang Menghan's nature is relatively straightforward. In this scheming military command bureau, she can always keep her heart, which is very rare.

"General."

A sweet voice sounded at the office door.

Tang Menghan had just left, and now another beautiful woman came, but Liang Xiao was so familiar with them, almost inseparable, so she didn't feel anything special about her voice.

It was Chu Xiangxue, the confidential secretary, who came in with the telegram. She was in charge of military telegrams. Therefore, even if she didn't speak, Liang Xiao knew that it must be from the Military and Political Council or some other army.

"I just received a message from the attendant's room, and the commissioner wants you to rush to Kaifeng to attend the military conference of the fifth war zone."

Chu Xiangxue put the telegram on the desk.

"Is there a specific time for the meeting in the telegram?"

Liang Xiao silently counted the time in his heart.

"Yes, in three days."

Chu Xiangxue nodded slightly.

"Send a message to the attendants, I will arrive in Kaifeng on time to attend the military meeting."

Liang Xiao said.

"General, Kaifeng is under the jurisdiction of the fifth war zone. Our Nanjing Garrison Command is directly under the command of the military and political council. It seems that you don't need to attend the military meeting of the fifth war zone. Is there anything else in it?"

Chu Xiangxue raised her eyebrows and said softly.

Liang Xiao glanced at her in surprise, and then, he remembered that Chu Xiangxue was the attendant of Mrs. Wei Zuo before, and also came from the general's sect, so it was reasonable to feel this way.

"Since the meaning of the appointment, this trip to Kaifeng is a must. Your confidentiality department is ready, and I will go to Kaifeng with me at any time."

"Yes."

Chu Xiangxue turned around and went down.

For the next two days, Liang Xiao devoted himself to the military and political affairs of Nanjing. Of course, he also dealt with many matters related to military affairs.

During this period, he received a telegram from Ye Zhao of the 66th Army, and Ye Zhao agreed to his condition to serve as the deputy commander-in-chief of the No.16 Army and concurrently the 66th Army.
