Anti-Japanese Special Warfare

Chapter 536 Laying Nets to Catch Ghosts!

After Qi Rui got the news, he immediately asked both Chongqing and Yan'an to investigate the matter, and the results were confirmed. The army of devils was indeed going south along the Nanxun Railway.

Qi Rui couldn't help but wondered, he knew very well that although they would affect history to some extent when they crossed over, big events were definitely not something they could influence.

The Battle of Nanchang was a very important battle for both Chongqing and the devils. According to records, the Battle of Nanchang was fought for more than 50 days, and Nanchang was lost in a few days. However, the Guojun counterattacked Nanchang many times. The army's first large-scale counter-offensive.

Even though it was the first large-scale counterattack, it was of great significance, because the devils did not achieve their strategic goal of forcing Chongqing to surrender, but instead formed a protracted war situation.

This also fully proves that the Chinese nation will never surrender to Japanese imperialism, and the whole people are more determined to resist Japan.

But should the Battle of Nanchang be more than a month earlier? Qi Rui thought it was impossible even after thinking about it, so he telegraphed Fang Jingnai to investigate carefully, and also telegraphed Zhou Zilu to help confirm this point.

The sudden change of the army of devils made the Ninth War Zone and Chongqing very alert. According to various investigations, it was Dai Li's Military Control Bureau who finally analyzed the actual situation.

Qi Rui received a telegram from Xue Yue, asking him to go to Changsha, saying that he had a very important matter to talk to him.

Qi Rui took Luonan, Xi Fengyuan, Guo Qu, Zhai Yu, and Mu Zhaoyun to Nanchang on horseback, and then Feng Kai drove a passenger plane to send Qi Rui and the others to Changsha.

When Qi Rui saw Xue Yue, Wang Yaowu, Yu Jishi, Zhang Lingfu and other generals were all present, and there was a person who surprised Qi Rui, he was Dai Li and Dai Yunong, known as Boss Dai.

Qi Rui pretended not to know each other first and greeted Xue Yue and the others. Xue Yue introduced Dai Li himself, and Qi Rui deliberately responded casually.

"Brother Qi is still angry about my previous behavior! I sincerely apologize to you here! It's all a misunderstanding! Please forgive me!" Dai Li really bowed to Qi Rui, and his attitude was also very sincere.

Qi Rui often still needs information from the military command, and he can't really offend them, so he pretended to have a step, and said: "If it's really a misunderstanding, Qi Rui is not a stingy person, then just treat it as if we didn't do anything before. It didn't happen, what does Boss Dai think?"

There is something in Qi Rui's words, why doesn't the old fox Dai Li know what Qi Rui means, he is telling himself not to mention Long Lan, Lu Xiaofei, Hui Ying, Mei Fang and Yan Hui.

These people are now following Qi Rui with all their hearts, and it is almost impossible for Dai Li to come back. If he really said this, he would really offend Qi Rui, so Dai Li immediately smiled bitterly and said: " Good! In the past, regardless of people or things, I would pretend that nothing happened!"

"Thank you Boss Dai!" Qi Rui also bowed slightly to Dai Li and said,
"Boss Qi is a dragon and a phoenix! We need to cooperate more in the future!"

"That's natural!" Qi Rui asked Xue Yue after finishing speaking: "Brother Xue, what important matter do you have to come to talk to me?"

Before Xue Yue could speak, Dai Li hurriedly said, "Brother Qi! That's right, according to our information, Okamura Ningji's deployment of troops to go south this time should be a feint!"

"Feint!?" Qi Rui liked to hear this word very much, because it was right.

"Yes! Feint!"

"What is their purpose?" Qi Rui asked incomprehensibly,

"That's right, our intelligence personnel found that they mobilized almost all the armored and cavalry units of the No.11 Army! And their target doesn't seem to be the Nanxun Railway! The area they sent people to investigate is east of Poyang Lake!"

"East of Poyang Lake!?" Qi Rui's heart moved when he heard this, because he had told Luo Zhuoying before that if the devils attacked Nanchang, he would attack the devil's flank, which is the position east of Poyang Lake.

"So! We generally believe that this time the little devil wants to call you and your team out first and eliminate them first. This military operation is mainly to ensure that they can successfully attack Nanchang in the future! It seems that the little devil is still very afraid of you and your team. Your army!" Xue Yue said,
"They pretended to attack Nanchang in order to get my people out! This Neiji Okamura really flattered me!" Qi Rui said, looking at the battle map stuck on the wall.
"Brother Qi, do you have any ideas?" Xue Yue asked,

"You mean to let me lead the troops out?" Qi Rui asked Xue Yue,

"Brother Qi, since Neiji Okamura has made such a big fight for you, why don't we make good use of it?" Dai Li said,
"This matter is not easy to deal with, because if you have any actions on your side, maybe the little devil will know soon, and we may not be able to realize any plans we have by then!" Qi Rui refers to the secret agent, the ghost messenger,

"Brother Qi is so sure that the ghost envoy can get the news?" Dai Li asked,
"The reason why Neiji Okamura made such a big move to attract me to leave Huangshan is to prove that as long as they attack Nanchang, I will send troops! Then this is very clear, there must be devils and spies who have proved this point, That's why Okamura Ningji is so sure!" Qi Rui said,
"It makes sense, it's true! Who is this dog spy! Boss Dai, don't you have any clues?" Xue Yue asked,
"I sent someone to investigate, but there were no clues at all. Not many Japanese knew about this ghost!"

Usami Rina only knew the code name of the ghost messenger, and nothing else, Qi Rui said: "Boss Dai is telling the truth, it is true, even Neji Okamura may not know who this person is, The only ones who know about him are the devil's top intelligence agencies!"

"Then what exactly is Brother Qi going to do?" Xue Yue asked.

"Brother Xue called the senior commanders of each army, and formulated the battle plan at the meeting!" Qi Rui said simply,

"I understand what Brother Qi means!" Dai Li nodded and said,

"What do you understand?" Xue Yue and Wang Yaowu asked incomprehensibly,
"Brother Qi means that we pretend to be facing the enemy and hold a combat meeting. At the meeting, we will discuss the battle plan by defending the Nanxun Railway and the Nanchang line. Brother Qi will also participate, and Commander Xue will also assign him a combat area. I will privately send the most capable men to keep an eye on all the participating officers! And I will also send someone to look at the battle plan, and the ghost may not be able to resist it!" Dai Li said,
"If the ghost messenger is an officer participating in the meeting, does he still need to take action?" Zhang Lingfu asked,
"I will investigate the officers participating in the meeting in detail. I think they should be fine! Commander Xue will not let ordinary officers participate in such an important meeting!"
