Spy Shadow: Command & Conquer

Chapter 1970, Putting Slander on Gu Zhutong

Chapter 1970, Putting Slander on Gu Zhutong
Nanjing. Dajiaochang Airport.

All the Japanese soldiers were extremely tense. They were filled with fear.

The main unease came from the gunfire and cannon fire coming from within Nanjing.

Osaka Division...

Honoring the emperor and begging for rape...

Unaware of the situation, they felt themselves struggling desperately on the edge of a whirlpool.

One wrong move and you could be pulled into a terrifying vortex, and then pulverized to pieces.

Who wouldn't be afraid in this situation?
I just hope they don't get near the airport. Otherwise, nobody knows how to deal with it.

"idiot……"

"Damn the Osaka Division..."

In a secluded corner, Nan Maozhang grumbled resentfully.

He is the newly appointed air force commander of the airport. He holds the rank of colonel. He has only been in office for half a month.

I never expected that I'd barely settled in before this major problem would arise.

The Osaka Division must uphold the Emperor's authority and punish the traitors...

This is blatant rebellion!
You'll lose your head.

However, Nan Maozhang dared not show any resistance in front of others.

What if the Osaka Division succeeds in its rebellion?

"boom……"

Suddenly, a terrifying explosion was heard from the direction of Zijin Mountain.

The explosions continued, sounding like an ammunition depot had been detonated. Even from a great distance, the ground seemed to tremble.

In the distance, large patches of fire could be seen in the sky above Zijin Mountain.

It was definitely not an ordinary shell explosion.

The ammunition depot must have been detonated. That's why the flames were so bright.

"Quick! Quick! Find out what's going on."

"Reporting to Your Excellency, Zijin Mountain has been occupied by the Osaka Division. All the heavy artillery has been destroyed."

"What? Purple Mountain has been occupied?"

Nan Maozhang's heart was filled with growing terror. He was filled with anxiety. Each day felt like an eternity.

What if the Osaka Division shows up outside the airport and demands that the airport obey their orders?
The telegram sent to the Director of Aviation has yet to receive a reply.

A suffocating atmosphere gradually enveloped the area.

Now that the Osaka Division has occupied Zijin Mountain, the situation is even more critical.

Who could have imagined that the Japanese would fight each other? The February 26 Incident wasn't enough; another one was needed.

Moreover, this time, the entire Osaka Division was involved. Tens of thousands of people!
Intelligence reports indicate that Nanjing is teeming with soldiers from the Osaka Division, their presence overwhelming and their momentum unmatched.

Even Purple Mountain has been occupied. This demonstrates the formidable strength of the Osaka Division…

"Report! Headquarters has replied!"

"Read!"

"It has now been confirmed that the Osaka Division is stationed in Hainan. No troops have arrived in Nanjing. It is undoubtedly an imposter..."

"What? A fake?"

Nan Maozhang's spirits lifted. But he quickly became even more nervous.

If it's truly the Osaka Division, and we're really outmatched, we can join them. For the time being, our lives shouldn't be in danger.

However, if it's an imposter, then it means they are anti-Japanese elements.

It is very likely that it was the main force of the National Revolutionary Army.

That's it.

The main force of the National Revolutionary Army has arrived again.

Last time, Zhang Yong broke in once.

The entire city of Nanjing was almost in a state of utter devastation.

All the important figures were scrambling away, disappearing as fast as they could.

They were terrified that if they were even a minute late in escaping, they might be trapped inside the city by Zhang Yong, who would then hang their heads on the city gate as a warning.

Unexpectedly, it happened a second time not long after.

That's terrifying.

Is Nanjing's defense really that bad?

Having already suffered a huge loss last time, how could they fall for it again? Just how stupid are they...?

"Not the Osaka Division?"

"Who could it be? Who's the imposter?"

"Could it be Zhang Yong again?"

"what?"

Someone mentioned Zhang Yong's name, and instantly, everyone's face turned ashen.

Those who were talking immediately shut up, perking up their ears to hear what others were saying.

Zhang Yong?

Who just mentioned that?
idiot!

Who exactly mentioned that terrible name?

Don't they know this name is taboo? It's forbidden to mention it! This name gives people nightmares!
The Japanese Army Air Force suffered too many losses under Zhang Yong's command.

A nightmare. Yet there's nothing you can do about it.

They were never able to kill their opponent. In fact, they were often the ones who were killed instead.

The air force suffered heavy losses on several sorties, to the point that they no longer dare to fly.

They get beaten up as soon as they go out.

Who would dare to take action?
But what if he attacks from the ground? What will the airport do then?
Is it really Zhang Yong who has arrived?
Nobody knows the answer.

However, it's never wrong to prepare for the worst.

"Four o'clock in the morning..."

Nan Maozhang checked the time, anxiously hoping for dawn to break.

As soon as it gets light, all the planes will take off immediately, heading far away from Nanjing. He himself will also pilot a plane to escape.

As long as you leave Nanjing, you will be safe.

As long as I'm not in Jinling, I don't care what happens next.

Even if the entire airport were to be destroyed, it would be acceptable. This would be the optimal solution.

Thankfully, it's July now, so the days are long and the nights are short. It gets light around 5 a.m. Time flies.

"chief of staff!"

"exist!"

"Immediately order all aircraft to prepare for relocation."

"Tie!"

"Take off immediately after dawn!"

"Tie!"

"No! Take off now! After takeoff, circle in the air until dawn, then make an emergency landing at Shanghai Longhua Airport."

"Tie!"

The chief of staff hurriedly went to relay the order.

It certainly knew the situation was urgent. Not a minute could be wasted.

We absolutely cannot wait until dawn. Although it will be dawn in just over an hour, even an hour can be fatal.

Zhang Yong might arrive within an hour or so.

That was truly heartbreaking.

"Move quickly!"

Nan Maozhang also gave specific instructions.

We must act quickly now.

He became increasingly convinced that Zhang Yong had indeed arrived.

Apart from Zhang Yong, no one else possesses such miraculous abilities...

That vengeful ghost is really too diligent.

Doesn't he have any other work to do? He's fighting all day long.

Isn't it said that they are greedy for money and lustful?

Isn't it said to be licentious and shameless?

It's all deceptive!
It must be a smokescreen put out by the Chinese.

That guy is a tireless killing machine, okay? He never rests for a moment.

Even the King of Hell wouldn't go to such lengths to claim a life...

"Ah!"

Zhang Yong sneezed repeatedly.

He looked around suspiciously.

Was the wind too strong at the top of the mountain? Did it make you catch a cold?
I have to say, I was drenched in sweat while hiking. My clothes were completely soaked.

The cool breeze feels so refreshing now. My body is shivering.

If this happened in later generations, they would definitely catch a cold.

but now……

It should be fine.

I've gotten used to the hardships and my body has adapted.

Use it or lose it. That's how it is. After experiencing things like this many times, your body will be able to handle it.

Your adventure experience has increased.

Your strength +1

[Tank Factory Construction Progress +1]

A system message has arrived.

Indifferent.

It doesn't seem to be of much use.

Now I can tear Japanese soldiers apart with my bare hands.

It would be better to change any attribute! Why are you so fixated on strength?

Also, the tank factory doesn't have any new treasures.

Shake his head.

Bring your mind back to reality.

The battle is completely over.

All of the Japanese heavy artillery has been destroyed.

The threat to the anti-Japanese armed forces around Zijin Mountain was completely eliminated.

Unfortunately, the spoils were few.

The Japanese heavy artillery units themselves did not have many light weapons.

The remaining spoils were useless to light infantry. They had to be abandoned.

As dawn approached, Zhang Yong descended the mountain, preparing to head to the airport.

Anti-Japanese armed forces have already begun to approach the airport.

Zhang Yong didn't know which specific unit it was.

It might be the Loyal and Patriotic Army.

"I'm going first!"

"Goodbye!"

"Goodbye."

Downhill.

Head towards the airport.

Soon, the sky began to brighten. It was a new day.

The air force map shows that Japanese planes are constantly taking off.

Clearly, this is an evacuation from the airport.

It must be said that the Japanese invaders have become quite shrewd these days.

They didn't fight to the death like before, and instead just wasted their energy.

The current Japanese invaders, realizing the danger, will decisively retreat. Eliminating them in large numbers is difficult.

Type 97 fighter jet...

96 Land Attack...

Almost all of the Japanese planes took off.

They then began heading towards Shanghai, without circling over Nanjing.

In other words, it means there is no support for ground operations.

It's estimated that they won't be able to provide support either.

The ground was covered with Japanese military uniforms. How could the planes tell who was on their side?
What if the aerial bombs fall and hit the actual Japanese invaders...?

Hehe, that's what you call awesome!

"Made..."

"Running so fast..."

"At least leave one for me..."

"Don't let them all fly away..."

Zhang Yong grumbled inwardly. He felt his plans had been disrupted once again.

The Japanese invaders flew away all their aircraft, including the old biplanes.

By nine o'clock in the morning, there were no airplane signs left at Dajiaochang Airport. His plan to fly to Kunming had fallen through.

Thankfully, nothing happened.

We can arrange for a plane to come immediately.

The Japanese planes have fled. Can the Nationalist planes come over?
Start the 5C communication center.

Connect to Quzhou Airport.

Look for Wang Shuming.

It was found quickly.

"Your Excellency..."

Wang Shuming's voice was somewhat excited.

He was a huge fan of Zhang Yong. Not in a way that involved power or influence.

I was extremely impressed by Zhang Yong's amazing abilities. I admired him wholeheartedly.

"Shuming, how's it going on your end?"

"The airport is fine. But something happened at the Third Theater Command."

"what's up?"

"Luo Qi and Gu Zhutong started arguing. Gu Zhutong got so angry that he threw things."

"is it?"

"Now, Gu Zhutong has requested the General Headquarters to transfer Luo Qi's Independent 95th Division away from the Third War Zone."

"Oh?"

Zhang Yong's eyes lit up.

That won't work.

How could Roach leave?
This troublemaker must stay in the Third War Zone!

Let him hang around in front of Gu Zhutong every day. Do nothing, just annoy him.

It's rare to find someone so willing to badmouth Gu Zhutong.

Haha, we must support it.

"I immediately applied to the General Headquarters to replenish the personnel and equipment of the Independent 95th Division so that it could remain in the Third War Zone."

Zhang Yong made no secret of his support for Luo Qi.

I want everyone to know. I have a grudge against Gu Zhutong.

I, Zhang Yong, will do anything to make Gu Zhutong unhappy. That's just how petty I am.

If you, bald guy, don't agree, then let's continue to be estranged.

I will go to the Yunnan Army immediately to support them.

Then go to the Thirteenth War Zone...

Hey.

"Then I will pass on your kindness to Roach."

"it is good."

Zhang Yong nodded.

That's a favor I can accept. Haha.

The point is to keep Roach going crazy. To keep him biting.

Luo Qi was also a student of the first class of the Whampoa Military Academy. He was your student, Baldy. Are you going to punish Luo Qi?
Or should we just shoot Roach?

what!
"By the way, arrange for a Hawk III fighter jet to come to Nanjing."

"Commissioner, are you in Nanjing?"

"Yes. Jinling Dajiaochang Airport. We'll take over here immediately."

"Huh? You've stormed into Nanjing again?"

"Ah."

Zhang Yong is very low-key.

However, Wang Shuming was excited.

I go!

That commissioner is truly amazing!
And again, yes, and again, they stormed into Nanjing. They stormed into the heart of the Japanese invaders' stronghold.

Where is Jinling?
Heavily guarded by Japanese troops. Location of the Japanese Expeditionary Army Headquarters. Location of the Wang Jingwei regime.

Such a crucial place was breached twice by Zhang Yong. This shows just how incredibly skilled Zhang Yong was. He admired him immensely.

"By the way, would you like to launch a surprise attack on a Japanese bomber formation?"

"Of course I want to. Where?"

"Japanese bombers are transferring to Shanghai."

"Direct us there immediately! I'll lead the team myself! Take off right now!"

Wang Shuming immediately perked up.

He was a rising star in the Nationalist Air Force. He was highly skilled.

Unlike other high-ranking KMT air force officers, he was actually capable of flying fighter jets. Moreover, he was in his prime.

He had no connections whatsoever. Therefore, he didn't expect further promotions. He would be perfectly content with the opportunity to kill a few more Japanese invaders.

"it is good!"

Zhang Yong then commanded the fighter squadron to take off.

Quzhou Airport had fifteen I-16 fighter planes. They were there to intercept a formation of Japanese bombers.

Taking off from Quzhou Airport, it would take less than an hour to intercept Japanese bombers.

Just then, Japanese bombers were preparing to land. It was an easy opportunity to attack. They could hit and run.

If Japanese fighter planes pursued, Changsha Airport could take over the chase.

End the call.

"Communications officer!"

"To!"

"A telegram was sent to the General Staff. The content read: I request that the Independent 95th Division be expanded into three brigades and nine regiments, with increased personnel and equipment, to enhance the combat effectiveness of the Third War Zone. It will be permanently stationed in the Third War Zone. Signed Zhang Yong."

"Yes!"

"Request that the other party call back to confirm receipt."

"Yes."

The communications officer agreed.

Remember the last sentence. It's very important.

The key is to make sure the other party confirms receipt. There can be no ambiguity.

Who received it and is required to sign it?

It can be traced back.

Zhang Yong wanted this telegram, which made him stand out from the crowd.

It is estimated that once the telegram reaches the headquarters, it will soon be known to all the top leaders.

This included the Yunnan Army, the Guangxi Clique, the Shanxi Army, and so on. They all had their own people planted in the command headquarters. Their intelligence network was extremely efficient.

The Independent 95th Division was expanded and permanently stationed in the Third War Zone.

Haha. Every reason is perfectly valid.

On the surface, it seemed like they were strengthening the Huangpu clique. But in reality, it was just creating trouble for Gu Zhutong.

This is tantamount to telling everyone, including the bald man, that I, Zhang Yong, am going to make Gu Zhutong pay. Anyone who doesn't cooperate will be cut off from my business.

The telegram was sent.

Leave it alone for now.

"Tattoo..."

"Boom boom boom..."

Gunfire could be heard ahead.

Zhang Yong strode forward, arriving at the airport front.

Sure enough, it was the Loyal and Patriotic Army. They were planning something big.

If you want to claim credit, you must produce some results.

What kind of achievement would be most remarkable? Of course, it would be destroying an airfield belonging to the Japanese invaders.

The Loyal and Patriotic Army included key members of the Military Intelligence Bureau. They were very familiar with the Dajiaochang Airport; in fact, they knew the route like the back of their hand.

"Commissioner!"

Sure enough, someone came up to greet them soon after.

They were all unfamiliar faces. But they were definitely from the Military Intelligence Bureau. They must have joined later.

After the Loyal and Patriotic Army was established, Boss Dai still managed to recruit quite a few talented people.

I asked around casually and learned that both commanders were graduates of the fourth class of the Whampoa Military Academy. They had both been transferred from Hu Zongnan's troops. They were both battalion commanders.

Sure enough, it turned out that Hu Zongnan and Boss Dai had a secret deal. The two had an extremely good relationship.

So, the idea that the Military Intelligence Bureau or the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (Zhongtong) investigated Hu Zongnan in some spy dramas is pure nonsense.

Regardless of which regime, who would dare to investigate Hu Zongnan?
Not to mention Hu Zongnan, a protégé of the emperor, other bigwigs wouldn't dare either.

Would Boss Dai dare to investigate Commander Qian?

Commander Qian was the head of the personal staff, and his direct superior in the Military Intelligence Bureau.

Does he dare to investigate Liu Zhi, or Gu Zhutong?

He dared not touch any of the high-ranking officials in charge of a region. Including Wei Lihuang, who was in charge of seven and a half routes.

Even someone like General Wen Bai was someone that neither the Military Intelligence Bureau nor the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics dared to provoke.

"You guys go ahead and attack. I'll cover you!"

"When you ask Boss Dai for credit, you don't need to mention my name. All the credit is yours."

Zhang Yong got straight to the point.

The two commanders of the Loyal and Patriotic Army were even more delighted.

Indeed, they wanted to make a name for themselves. To stand out among the many armed groups. To give Boss Dai a chance to shine.

Zhang Yong's goal was the same: to inflate Boss Dai's ambitions.

He continued to vigorously develop his loyal and patriotic army.

Then the bald man became suspicious of him.

Heh. Baldy's suspicious of this person and that person, let's see if he can sleep at night.

Next time I have the chance, I'll help the military police recruit more soldiers. I'll also make the bald guy suspicious of the military police.

I don't trust anyone around me, and I live in constant fear.

Haha. Just thinking about it is exhilarating.

"The approximate troop deployment of the Japanese invaders..."

"Attack from this direction..."

Zhang Yong gave a brief explanation.

The two graduates from the fourth class of Huangpu Military Academy are quite capable.

They quickly launched an attack according to the plan provided by Zhang Yong, and stormed into the airport in no time.

With the Japanese planes rapidly fleeing, the airport's defenses naturally crumbled. The remaining Japanese troops were demoralized and had no will to fight.

The big shots have all fled. The pilots have fled. Everyone with status and influence has fled.

The rest are insignificant little shrimps.

They're all cannon fodder.

Who would be willing to fight to the death?

Nanjing was so big, and the Japanese army was so large, yet they were both scattered.

What could the few hundred men guarding the airport do? So, after putting up a brief resistance for about ten minutes, the Japanese troops fled.

"what?"

Zhang Yong suddenly noticed that a certain group of loyal and patriotic soldiers was somewhat special.

They were clearly not ordinary armed personnel. They looked like they had been directly pulled from a regular army. Anyone with eyes could tell at a glance.

Thoughtful.

It's probably one of Hu Zongnan's subordinates.

Several companies were directly transferred from the military to serve as the backbone of Boss Dai's team.

Indeed, Hu Zongnan and Dai Li were truly in love!
"Chase!"

"Chase!"

The Loyal and Patriotic Army began to give chase.

The remaining Japanese troops fled even faster, disappearing without a trace in no time.

Zhang Yong: ...

Haha. A complete rout!

Even the Japanese invaders have met their end.

Live it!

Entering the airport.
