A few days later, under everyone's watchful eyes, Zhang Tianhao had to leave the headquarters and go to Hong Kong. After all, the food problem and the matters in Hong Kong also required him to deal with them again.

After all, there is more food in Hong Kong than in northern Jiangsu. Although it comes from Southeast Asia, it is enough for him to import food.

……

"What? Nanjing is not peaceful again. According to the intelligence we have received, the Japanese are preparing to mobilize a large army to encircle and suppress northern Jiangsu?"

Half a month later, Zhang Tianhao was sitting on the boat, looking at the telegram he had just received, his face showing some shock.

Now the people in northern Jiangsu are asking him to go back and preside over this major war. The war has only been going on for two or three months, and the Japanese are actually encircling and suppressing northern Jiangsu again.

"Master, what should we do now?"

"fine!"

He glanced at Zhang Lu beside him and said calmly, "I will take care of this matter. This battle can be said to be a decisive battle to determine the dominance of Subei. If we win this time, then Subei will be under my command forever. This battle has to be fought!"

"Then you must be extra careful this time."

"Well, this time, you are also transferred to Subei. You can be the county magistrate's secretary, or you can be a clerk in the regiment. However, I still suggest that you work as a clerk in the county or Subei government."

"Okay, I listen to you!"

Zhang Tianhao also returned to the deck and began to think about where the Japanese troops were transferred from. After all, it would be difficult not to attract other people's attention when a large number of Japanese troops were mobilized.

What he had to do now was to make preparations in advance so that this group of Japanese troops would never return.

But he also knew that such a large-scale mobilization of Japanese troops could not be completed in a short period of time. It would take at least a month to deploy them.

……

In the Subei Army Group Headquarters.

Zuo Mingming looked at the division commanders and some brigade commanders who had just been promoted under his command, and the corners of his mouth twitched wildly.

The army originally had only two divisions, but now it has grown to 36 divisions, each of which has a strength of 10,000 people, plus the guard regiment on the headquarters side, and other arms.

By this calculation, the regular army of the entire Subei Group Army already has 40 people.

Unexpectedly, the seemingly inconspicuous Subei Army Group has become so crazy in just half a month of recruiting people.
"Everyone, we are now attacking Xuzhou, Huaibei, and even Bengbu, Nantong and other places. Our goal is not to occupy more territory, but to train troops, you know, it's training troops."

"We can bring all the people over there here instead of letting you occupy the territory. We need to preserve our manpower. The Japanese have organized their troops and are ready to attack us at any time."

"But we are short of everything, weapons, ammunition, and medicine. Look at what you have done. After the battle, collect all the supplies and return them all to the base."

"We can fight, but we cannot rush out of our original range. It is no problem to occupy one or two counties, but if the battlefield stretches too long, it will be extremely disadvantageous to us. Do you understand?"

"General Zuo, what do we do next? Should we follow the young master's orders and train?"

At this time, a division commander asked a question and looked at the other people seriously.

"Yes, we focus on training our troops and destroying the Japanese's manpower, not anything else. Do you understand?"

"In Xuzhou, you can notify several divisions there to occupy one or two county towns to establish the battlefield front and recruit soldiers. In Nantong, you can expand the results of the battle and take over the entire northern part of Nantong, so that the entire northern Jiangsu coastline can be connected into a straight line."

"Also, Yangzhou should be defended. After conquering the western town, you can grab the supplies and rush back immediately. You can also recruit some new soldiers in the occupied county and then withdraw quickly. Do you understand?"

"But, General Zuo, if we do this, wouldn't it be a waste of our time, energy, and the lives of our soldiers?"

"Wrong, training soldiers, training soldiers, and grabbing supplies, supplies, do you understand?"

Zuo Mingming rolled his eyes and said seriously, "The plan made by the young master before he left, we have to face the Japanese attack from all sides, at least 200,000 troops. We have no way to fight in our current state, don't you understand?"

"Also, our recruitment quota is full, but the situation we are facing is really not good, so this time we must ensure that all troops are adequately trained, understand?"

"understand!"

When everyone heard this, they were immediately happy. After all, the more people they had, the better they could fight and the more manpower they would have available.

……

Inside the Japanese garrison headquarters in Nanjing.

The Japanese commander looked at the map on the table, his face was not very good. After all, the impact of the Subei Army Group's disturbance this time was too great, even he was a little confused about the purpose of the Subei Army Group.

After all, war must have a purpose. It is impossible to attack a place, rob things and run away without staying.

They had even sent a large number of agents to infiltrate the territory of the Subei Army to gather information, but in the end they found nothing.

The management of the troops is quite strict. Almost all of them who have reached the deputy company level and above are required to abstain from alcohol. In fact, apart from training every day, they rarely go out and leave the barracks.

As for the people below, they dared not leave the barracks easily, and it was quite difficult to get information. The entire Subei Army Group was like a huge machine, making it impossible for these agents to get in.

"I'm sorry, we don't know either. However, judging from the military purpose of the Subei Army, it seems to me that they are using the Empire's army for training."

"Troop training?"

At this time, several Japanese generals were also surprised and looked at the map involuntarily.

The entire map looked like it was filled with a lot of flags, and the Subei Army Group was directly surrounded by it, with many Japanese guarding around it.

The location of the Subei Army Group was like an isolated island, surrounded by the Japanese, making it difficult to get out.

In addition, and most importantly, the battle fought by the Subei Army Group was really confusing.

They would rob and run, or if they could fight, they would fight, and if they couldn't fight, they would just turn around and leave. Just when they let down their guard, another wave of troops from the Subei Army came.

This made the Japanese troops in northern Jiangsu busy dealing with the situation, and they had no idea what the Northern Jiangsu Group Army was trying to do.

"Commander, I think it's the Subei Army that's training. Since we cut off their connection with the surrounding areas, their supplies must be insufficient. Now they have discovered this problem, so they have to seize the county town occupied by the Empire."

"That's how this drama came about. It will take quite some time for the Empire to mobilize a large number of troops. There are four divisions in the mainland, four divisions in North China, two divisions from the front, and two divisions we reorganized. This is the maximum number of troops we can mobilize now. If there are more, the front will be unstable."

"In addition, these troops need to march secretly to northern Jiangsu, which will take at least a month."

"One month, one month later, we must fight to the death with the damn Subei Army Group, drive them all away, kill them all, understand?"

"understand!"

Commander Asaka was also full of anger. After all, when he was the garrison commander, the Subei Army Group suddenly rose to prominence. Wasn't this a slap in his face?

"By the way, how many people can be mobilized from the Imperial Army?"

"Commander, we have already recruited and mobilized the Imperial Army. We now have 120,000 soldiers, but their combat capability may be a little worrying."

"It's okay. Our goal is not to make them fight as many battles as possible, but to make them assist us!"

"Hi!"

As the meeting of the Japanese military headquarters ended, in a small intelligence classroom not far from the meeting room, a middle-aged man in his thirties casually took a puff of his cigarette.

I looked around and saw my colleagues looking at documents or doing their own things.

He also turned and walked towards the bathroom.

Bathroom, no one would have thought that in this bathroom, after the middle-aged man walked in, he came to a toilet.

He looked around again, then walked in and closed the door.

After he walked in, he did not go to the bathroom immediately. Instead, he pushed against the wall. The wall, which seemed to have no problems at first, actually sank inwards.

Then I saw a small space inside, about 20 cm wide, 30 cm long and 20 cm high.

There is a machine running inside.

He carefully picked up the ears, then quickly poured out the taste inside. When the taste of the meeting was over, he picked up the headphones and listened quickly.

Maybe it was because of the faster pace, he finished listening to the whole thing in half an hour.

As he finished listening, the middle-aged man's expression turned unsightly.

But he still carefully hid the things, restored the wall, and then quietly walked out of the toilet. (End of this chapter)
