Crossing the spy war, my code name is God of Wealth

Chapter 946: The Power of the Heavenly Furnace

Shanghai, Agent No. 76 Headquarters.

Wan Tianmu returned to the office with a gloomy face. Just as he sat down, Li Zuping opened the door and walked in.

"Director Wan, we have done everything you asked us to do, but we still have no clue."

Li Zuping gestured and said, "There are so many nurses and doctors in the hospital. We spent two days searching almost every part of the hospital, but we didn't find any useful clues."

"Are you really sure that the one who did it was a woman?"

Wan Tianmu's eyes widened, and he said sinisterly, "Why? Even Team Leader Li thinks my judgment is flawed?"

Li Zuping's face froze, and he waved his hands quickly, saying, "I dare not, I dare not. I just think that it would be a bit difficult to find a killer who fits Director Wan's description among such a large crowd of people, and she has to be a woman."

"Besides, you are only relying on the records left by the brothers to determine that the other party is a woman. I think it seems a bit far-fetched."

Wan Tianmu tapped the table with his right hand and said, "Team Leader Li, can you expand the search area a little bit? I don't believe that the killer is so powerful that he can leave no trace at all."

Li Zuping looked embarrassed. In order to investigate the area around the hospital, he had arranged two teams to check.

Even if we add more staff, we will not be able to do other things. The key is that there are no witnesses or testimonies in this case, and Wan Tianmu's judgment comes only from the scoring records.

To be honest, Li Zuping still doesn't quite believe that a woman could have this ability.

"Director, I'm not trying to shirk responsibility. We have already dispatched two teams to investigate day and night to find the killer."

"The evidence we have is too limited. You said the killer was a woman, but we don't know how tall or heavy she is or what she looks like."

"Everyone is doing things according to your wishes. I won't hide it from you. The brothers haven't had a rest for a few days. Everyone has some complaints. If there is no strong evidence to support it, I'm afraid someone will report the matter to Director Ding."

Wan Tianmu's expression suddenly changed: "What? Are they going to rebel?"

Li Zuping quickly said, "Director, that's not what I meant. Brothers just, just..."

After talking for a long time, Li Zuping still couldn't explain it clearly, but the meaning was already very clear, that is, you are wasting everyone's time.

Wan Tianmu hesitated for a moment, but did not get angry.

"Director, do you think we should..."

Wan Tianmu's expression changed: "Team Leader Li, do you want me to kill Liang and take credit for it?"

Li Zuping didn't say anything, but he didn't deny it either.

Wan Tianmu hesitated for a moment and said, "Team Leader Li, just do your part."

Li Zuping saluted, turned and left the office. Wan Tianmu sat behind his desk and didn't know what to do for a moment.

Now he has Minister Chen above him and his brothers below him are forcing him. At this time, he feels a little regretful that he should not have asked Minister Chen to review the case files of the Special High Section.

Originally, he just wanted to find some key clues from the previous case files to catch the killer. Now, not only did he not find any clues, but he also got into trouble both internally and externally.

In a trance, he recalled what Ding Cun had said to him, "Brother Ruyu, the most taboo thing in this place is to do too much. The more you do, the more mistakes you make."

"If you want to live in peace and stability, just do your part."

Thinking of this, Wan Tianmu couldn't help but sigh. Sure enough, people who know how to be officials are smarter than people who know how to do things. If he had seen through this earlier, he wouldn't be so passive.

Do I really have to follow those people's example and find a scapegoat to take the blame?

January 21, 1942.

Chen Yang had just arrived at work when he was called from the Joint Transport Department to the Expeditionary Force Headquarters.

In the conference room on the third floor of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, all the high-ranking officers who came to attend the meeting had solemn expressions on their faces.

There was only one reason why they showed such expressions: Commander Anan was defeated.

It was not a simple failure, but an unprecedented defeat.

Commander Anan divided the troops attacking Changsha into three echelons.

The first echelon was the 3rd Division, responsible for the frontal attack, the 6th Division was the second echelon, and the 40th Division was the third echelon, responsible for support.

This formation seemed to have no problems at all. Moreover, since the plan to attack Changsha was implemented in January, the Third Division once entered the city of Changsha and competed with the Changsha defenders for the sovereignty of Changsha.

Just when Changsha was about to be completely occupied, reinforcements arrived from the mountain city.

In order to maintain the victory, Commander Anan ignored the orders of the expeditionary army's top brass and put the entire second echelon, the 6th Division, into battle.

It was this action that almost brought the 11th Army to a devastating disaster.

On the morning of January 15, the Special Service Department's radio station deciphered the Changsha troops' combat intentions.

In order to completely annihilate the 11th Army, the 4th Army of the 9th War Zone, which was originally ordered to move south, was led by Ou Zhen and returned to Changsha from Zhuzhou to participate in the mission of encircling and annihilating the Japanese army.

The 19th Army's newly formed 3rd Army under Yang Hongguang, the 27th Army, Wang Lingji's 30th Army, Xia Shouxun's, Yang Guangyu's and other troops received combat orders one after another and arrived at the vicinity of Changsha on the 16th to carry out attack missions.

At this time, it was too late for Commander Anan to retreat, as the 3rd and 6th Divisions were all trapped inside.

Only the 40th Division was relatively intact, and if they wanted to rush to support the troops in Changsha City, the consequence would probably involve the sacrifice of the 40th Division as well.

"Stand up." A loud voice rang out, and Commander Terauchi walked into the meeting room with a gloomy face.

"sit down."

Commander Terauchi looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, Commander Anan made a mistake in his operational command, which resulted in most of the 11th Army being surrounded by Changsha's troops."

"According to the latest information from the Special Affairs Department, the 11th Army suffered losses of more than 40,000 men this time."

"Moreover, this is just a preliminary estimate. It will be difficult for Changsha's troops to evacuate the battlefield."

"Minister Chen, this time we need you to urgently transport supplies to Hubei, and we need to do it quickly. The reinforcement troops must all be lightly equipped, in order to bring Commander Anan's troops out."

Chen Yang quickly stood up and said, "Commander, I will order the material warehouse to allocate all materials to Wuhan first to ensure that there will be no problems with logistics."

Commander Terauchi nodded and said, "I still believe that Minister Chen can coordinate the material matters..."

"Abe-kun, have the troops responsible for supporting the 40th Division set out yet?"

Abe Mitsuhiro stood up and said, "Commander, the troops have received the order, but even at the fastest speed, it will take five days to reach Changsha."

"I'm afraid Commander Anan won't be able to hold on until then. I have a suggestion..."

Commander Terauchi said, "What's the proposal?"

Abe Mitsuhiro looked at the officers present and said with a stiff face: "The Seventh Fleet of the Navy is in the Changsha area. They can..."

"Nonsense..."
