The Spy

Chapter 342: The Battle Was Fierce
In Nanjing, Zhang Xizhi took the initiative to call Xu Qingyun.

"Qingyun, thank you very much."

General Zhang received another batch of sulfa drugs, which surprised not only him but all the agents.

I thought Xu Qingyun would take the opportunity to raise prices when the war broke out, but I didn't expect the prices to remain the same, and instead he gave them more goods.

At this time everyone understood that Xu Qingyun was truly working for the country and did not take advantage of the national crisis to make money.

If it were someone else, they would never miss such an opportunity to make a lot of money.

With these sulfonamides, they will be able to retain more elite veterans during the war. These veterans are the most critical. All generals understand that the gap between recruits and veterans is not that small.

"You are too polite, General Zhang. Given the current situation, the army should have more medicine on hand."

Xu Qingyun chatted briefly with General Zhang and then hung up the phone.

The Japanese have bared their fangs and the Battle of Shanghai is imminent.

The Military Intelligence Department has been busier than usual recently. They are mainly working externally to collect more intelligence about the Japanese.

Xu Qingyun found William and bought intelligence about the Japanese army from Osaka at any price.

Time passed slowly. On the 21st, Japan bombarded Wanping City again, and the Guo army fought bravely.

In the next few days, Japan continued to dispatch troops and marched straight to Beijing. Many Chinese people realized that a full-scale war between Japan and China was inevitable.

Singapore, Mr. Chen reads the newspaper every day.

Things turned out to be just as Xu Qingyun said. The Japanese took advantage of this opportunity to occupy more land.

Some people even made the outrageous statement that they would occupy China within three months.

The arrogance of the Japanese completely angered all Chinese people.

The only thing that comforted Mr. Chen was that Xu Qingyun once said that it was impossible for the Japanese to occupy China in a short period of time. Although there were many warlord factions in the country, they would become very united when facing the outside world.

The few who are not united will be eliminated sooner or later.

Even if they are traitors, they have little fighting power. As long as the Chinese can hold on, future victory will surely belong to China.

I just don’t know when this day will come.

Mr. Chen really has nothing to say about Xu Qingyun.

Everything was the same as Xu Qingyun said, even the civil war broke out earlier than the European war. The Japanese loved to gamble, and their impatience never changed.

Unfortunately, the bad news keeps coming.

At the end of the month, Beijing and Tianjin fell one after another.

In August, General Zhang Xizhi came out again and served as the commander of the Beijing-Shanghai garrison.

After much persuasion and discussions in meetings, the old man finally agreed to take the initiative to open up a new battlefield in Shanghai and drive the Japanese out of Shanghai first.

On the 13th, the Battle of Shanghai officially broke out.

Just over a month feels like a year to many Chinese people.

When the war broke out, countless people flocked to the concessions, prices soared, and people were displaced.

"Stationmaster."

Zhao San followed Xu Qingyun and whispered that Xu Qingyun was going out for a walk today. He wanted to object, but unfortunately Xu Qingyun insisted and there was nothing he could do.

The war had not yet reached their side, but the number of pedestrians on the streets had obviously decreased a lot, and many shops were closed.

Those who are rich will first hide in the concession, which is relatively safe.

Those who have no money will also hide in the countryside. Bombs have no eyes, and if you are accidentally injured in the war, you will have nowhere to cry.

In troubled times, what people fear most is war.

This is a scene that is unimaginable for people living in peacetime.

In later life, Xu Qingyun saw the chaotic foreign countries on the Internet, and knew that many foreigners would be frightened by the sound of firecrackers when they came to China.

That's their instinctive reaction.

Many Chinese people may regard this as a joke, but Xu Qingyun will not. He knows very well how much trauma war brings to the people's hearts.

"Let's go back."

After taking a walk around, Xu Qingyun sighed. There was actually nothing interesting to see outside, but since he was living in this era, he had to come out and take a look.

"General Zhang."

On the third day, Xu Qingyun came to the military camp and Zhang Xizhi immediately looked at him.

"Qingyun is here."

Xu Qingyun personally escorted a batch of supplies to General Zhang. These supplies were free of charge and included not only sulfa drugs but also various medical supplies.

He knew best how brutal this war was.

"The things you sent are very important. Thank you Qingyun."

After reading the list of ingredients, Zhang Xizhi said seriously that there were a lot of things in it, including various Asian and European products, as well as various instruments, from surgical instruments to gauze, everything is available.

These are the medical supplies that Xu Qingyun had stored before.

He felt very relieved to leave it to Zhang Xizhi.

"You don't have to be polite. Compared to the soldiers on the front line, what I can do is insignificant."

The most brutal time of the Battle of Shanghai had not yet arrived. When it really came, all his supplies would not be enough, but he would save as much as he could.

However, this battle will completely shatter the Japanese's boast that they will occupy China in three months, which is totally impossible.

The Chinese were not vulnerable. The Battle of Shanghai also brought huge casualties to the Japanese.

It is undeniable that Japan now has advanced weapons and its soldiers' combat effectiveness far exceeds that of the Kuomintang army, but Japan is an island country after all, with limited population and resources. The war is fought with potential. China has sufficient strategic depth and will let the Japanese know that it is impossible for them to completely occupy China.

"If everyone could be like you, how dare the Japanese kid do this."

Zhang Xizhi sighed. In his eyes, Xu Qingyun was indeed good enough. He caught so many Japanese spies and traitors, prevented the leakage of intelligence, and indirectly protected many people and properties.

"If all Chinese people were like you, General, who would dare and who could shake China?"

After Xu Qingyun complimented him, Zhang Xizhi's expression eased a lot. Unfortunately, he didn't have time to have a good chat with Xu Qingyun, and he soon went back to deal with military affairs.

This time, Xu Qingyun sent ten truckloads of medical supplies, alleviating General Zhang’s urgent needs.

The Battle of Shanghai was fought in a hurry. Zhang Xizhi was well aware of how serious the consumption of supplies was in such a war, and the prior preparations were not sufficient. With these things, not to mention that the soldiers would have no worries, at least many people could be saved.

It is a tragedy that someone was not injured and should not have died, but died because of lack of timely treatment.

"Stationmaster, Mr. Chen is calling."

Soon after returning to Shanghai Station, Zhao San brought a new telegram. After the war broke out, Mr. Chen sent more messages to Xu Qingyun.

This time, Mr. Chen asked about the outcome of the battle between Xu Qingyun and Zhang Hai.

"It's hard to defend?"

Mr. Chen looked gloomy when he received a call back from Xu Qingyun.

Although the Kuomintang had mobilized a lot of people, officers and soldiers from all over the country were actively fighting against Japan, and the old man also sent his own direct subordinates to participate in the battle.

However, the disparity in strength between the enemy and us was huge. In particular, the Chinese navy and air force were too weak and were no match for the Japanese.

"hateful."

Thinking of this, Mr. Chen slammed the table in anger. With Xu Qingyun's prophecy, he had raised a lot of money in Nanyang a long time ago and donated it to the Guo army to buy enough fighter planes.

As a result, the money was actually saved by a woman and earned interest.

Very few planes were actually purchased, and the old man's actions could be said to have left him extremely disappointed.

If the Chairman does this, it is even more unimaginable for other members of the Fruit Party to do so.

"Father, don't be angry."

Chen Changcun hurriedly advised that he was the one who delivered the telegram, so he naturally knew why his father was so angry.

Although the Kuomintang Air Force achieved some results in the initial Shanghai air battle, as time went on, the disadvantage of insufficient Kuomintang aircraft became increasingly prominent.

The Japanese are constantly increasing their troops. The Chen family is not an ordinary family. They will not only look at the present, but can anticipate the difficulties that the Korean pilots will face in the future.

They were given so much money that they could buy planes, train in advance, and arm the sky.

They, on the other hand, thought that war would not break out and kept the money in the bank.

Are you so short of money that you just want that little bit of interest?
It is too late to buy airplanes now. Airplanes are not rice that you can buy directly from the store and eat. You have to place an order for airplanes first, and the factory has to have enough time to produce them.

Factories will not manufacture aircraft in large quantities without orders. It would take up too much capital, and if the aircraft cannot be sold, they will end up losing all their money.

It’s too late to buy it now.

"I'm not angry. How can I not be angry?"

Chen Changcun's persuasion did not work, and Mr. Chen was still angry. This was a joint fundraising effort by many overseas Chinese, and it reflected their sincere patriotism.

It's unforgivable to be trampled on like this.

Chen Changcun didn't dare to say anything else, for fear of further arousing his father's anger.

"Fortunately, there is Qingyun in the country."

After a while, Mr. Chen finally recovered a little. Xu Qingyun's call back to him had already stated that there was a high probability that Shanghai could not be defended.

Once Japan launches a war with all its strength, its strength will indeed be much stronger than that of the Guo army.

But it was also said that we don't need to be discouraged. Although Shanghai cannot be defended, it has attracted the Japanese offensive forces, preventing them from concentrating on gradually encroaching from the north to the south. The Japanese opened up two fronts, which at least prevented them from concentrating their forces on one point.

Unfortunately, once Shanghai falls, Nanjing will be in danger.

"Qingyun still sees farther and more clearly."

Chen Changcun nodded. Xu Qingyun had said a long time ago that once the war broke out, the Guo army would not be a match. The best way was to use strategic depth to consume the Japanese's combat potential.

Although the Japanese are strong, their national strength is too small.

If China wants to obtain sufficient resources, especially essential resources such as oil, it will inevitably come into conflict with European and American powers.

If these countries joined the war, China would have a chance to defeat Japan.

"You're right. He is indeed smart. He planned ahead so early."

Mr. Chen sighed and said, since Xu Qingyun had predicted it long ago, how could he have done nothing?

From today's perspective, once Shanghai is lost, Nanjing will indeed be difficult to defend, and I am afraid that Wuhan and other places may not be able to be defended in the future.

The mountainous Sichuan area has indeed become the best rear base.

Xu Qingyun made arrangements in Chongqing in advance and opened pharmaceutical factories in Chongqing and Xi'an. At first, many people did not understand why they were set up in such remote places. Now it seems that Xu Qingyun was the smartest one.

"But he's in Shanghai, is he in danger?"

Chen Changcun whispered that Xu Qingyun had done nothing in Shanghai before, but once Shanghai was lost, Xu Qingyun would not be able to do anything openly.

The Japanese have always wanted to kill him. If Xu Qingyun is given the opportunity, he will surely die.

"With his intelligence, he will be fine for now, but we have to consider the future. You sent him a telegram, advising him that if Shanghai falls, he should retreat to the rear. He is an intelligence officer and does not belong to the front line."

"Yes, I'll send the message right away."

Chen Changcun nodded and left quickly. Not long after, the telegram from Singapore reached Xu Qingyun's hands.

From the telegram, he could feel that the Chen family truly cared about him.

If possible, he would also like to live a good life without such hard work, but God brought him to this era and entered the Military Intelligence Department, so he understood that he had responsibilities.

Although some achievements have been made in recent years, they are far from enough.

He can't leave Shanghai for the time being.

"Thank you for your concern, Brother Changcun..."

Xu Qingyun personally wrote a reply and asked Zhao San to send it to him.

French Concession, International Settlement, Xu Fuzhong is busy.

He is recruiting workers for low pay.

He didn't quite understand this. The work these workers were recruited to do was not what they needed now. Some porters were okay, but what kind of person was it to ask the boss to send people to sweep the streets and wash clothes for all their employees?
Giving employees new benefits is somewhat understandable, but isn’t street sweeping purely to help the high-ranking officials in the concession maintain the city’s appearance?
Over such a long time, Xu Fuzhong has become accustomed to doing things according to his boss's requirements, even if he does not understand them. Facts have proved that the boss has never made any mistakes so far.

What he didn't understand was very simple for Xu Qingyun.

The low salary is given to help those who really can't survive in the concession. Now we are just recruiting workers, and in the future we will also provide porridge to help them survive.

There are many people in the concession. Although Xu Qingyun is rich, he cannot support so many idle people.

The salary is low, so rich people are unwilling to do it. Only those who can’t make a living will do it.

When distributing porridge, they will not be given the best food. Not only will it be unpalatable, but it will even have to be supplemented with extra ingredients. This way, those who like to take advantage and survive will not come to snatch food from those who really need to survive.

Many times, things cannot be done completely as one wishes. Even if Xu Qingyun is criticized, he will do it.

He wants to help those who really need it.

"I'll do it. I'll do it."

At the recruitment site, many people signed up, but the result once again surprised Xu Fuzhong.

Many jobs only provide food but no wages, and at most a place to live. Don’t expect the conditions to be very good. They are just to provide shelter from the wind and rain. Yet, there are still many people willing to do this?

This is a job that doesn't pay a penny.

Fortunately, the boss was kind and willing to let them work. Although they had no money, if they had elderly people and children, he could provide them with a free pancake.

The elderly and children must be those who are unable to work.

It is equivalent to one person doing the work, which can prevent the whole family from starving to death.

Before long, Xu Fuzhong had recruited enough people, and many people still wanted to work for them, so Xu Fuzhong had to stop temporarily and ask his boss for instructions.

"Too many people."

After receiving Xu Fuzhong's telegram, Xu Qingyun shook his head and sighed. He had not expected that there would be so many ordinary people at the bottom of society who could not survive.

But he could understand that there was a war going on and if he didn't go to the concession, he might be in danger outside at any time.

The concession was closest to them, and many people thought that they could support themselves and their families by doing anything in the concession, and they had no idea of ​​the cruelty of reality.

"There's nothing we can do. The concession is the safest place. Even ants try to survive. They just want to stay alive."

Zhao San replied softly, he was right, the people only had such simple wishes, and it was also human instinct, what had they done wrong?

"Put this back."

Xu Qingyun called Xu Fuzhong back and asked him to continue recruiting workers. When there were enough people, he could hire people to repair houses and roads.

Drawing water, cooking, etc. all require people.

Before the war, he stored a large amount of food and offered to help as much as he could.

These are people who live at the bottom of society. If he doesn't help, others won't have enough work for them, and they will starve to death sooner or later. "Yes."

Zhao San took the order and left, and soon came back with two telegrams.

All of them were sent from Chongqing.

Xu Jiaming was worried about his son and asked him when he would return to Chongqing. Shanghai was a war zone and Xu Qingyun was a soldier.

The second letter was from Xu Qingshi. The Xu family had a radio station, and they sent the telegram together.

What Xu Qingshi said was very simple, with similar meaning to Mr. Chen. He asked Xu Qingyun when this war would end and whether China could win?
As early as the year before last, Xu Qingyun was pessimistic about the Kuomintang and believed that there would be a war between China and Japan.

At that time, Xu Qingshi didn't believe it at all.

Last year, Xu Qingyun started to make plans to send them all to Chongqing. At first, Xu Qingshi was not so happy about it.

Now that the war has started, he immediately realized that Xu Qingyun's worries have all been realized. Chongqing is now safe, but Xu Qingshi is not thinking about himself, he is worried about the entire country.

Xu Qingyun replied to them one by one.

He comforted his father, saying that he was a soldier and it was his duty and responsibility to defend the country. He could not go back to fulfill his filial duties for the time being, and asked the two elders to forgive him.

My brother explained that as long as the Chinese people unite together, they will definitely win in the future.

These two telegrams did not make Xu Jiaming and Xu Qingshi feel much better.

But they could all understand Xu Qingyun.

Especially Xu Qingshi, he also had an important mission in Chongqing. His brother killed so many Japanese, and the Japanese always wanted to harm them.

They have arrested three batches of people.

Xu Qingyun is not at home, and he is the eldest brother, so he must stay at home to protect the family and prevent the Japanese from succeeding and attacking Xu Qingyun.

Time passes slowly and the Battle of Shanghai continues.

Mr. Chen's worries gradually became a reality.

The disadvantage of insufficient number of aircraft made it extremely difficult for the Kuomintang pilots to fight, and many pilots died for their country.

Some pilots knew they could not fly the plane back, so they resolutely turned towards the enemy warships.

Some pilots shot themselves because they did not want to be captured and humiliated.

They are all true warriors.

The most valuable thing is that they are not ordinary people. They come from wealthy families and many of them are children of officials.

If they were not pilots and did not fight in combat, they could enjoy a good life.

But they were not afraid, nor did they retreat or run away. Even though they knew they might sacrifice themselves, they still flew into the sky to defend their country.

The air force fought bravely, and so did the ground forces.

The Japanese are indeed arrogant, and this time they have witnessed the unity and strength of the Chinese people.

They kept deploying troops. The navy originally wanted to capture Shanghai on its own, but finally realized that this was wishful thinking and had to ask the army for help.

The battle in Shanghai became more intense.

In the International Settlement, William took out a box full of US dollars.

The gold bars are too heavy. All the transactions in these transactions were in US dollars. There are 100,000 US dollars in the box, which is very heavy.

"this is yours."

William smiled and said to Osaka in front of him, after Osaka provided information again, he made a lot of money again.

Of course, Osaka also made a lot of money.

"very good."

Osaka was not polite. This was the reward he deserved. He provided the Chinese with information about Japan's reinforcement of troops and some troop deployment.

These are all important key intelligence and are worth the price.

"If there is any intelligence, we still need it."

William said to him and Osaka looked back and nodded with a smile.

The war was a feast for the intelligence dealers. William and Osaka made a lot of money during this period, and so did other intelligence dealers.

They develop moles everywhere, and the intelligence merchants' moles are more difficult to detect.

After seeing Osaka off, William sighed again.

If he had not been caught by the Military Intelligence Department, he would have made more money in this war. Unfortunately, all his moles were gone, so he couldn't sell the intelligence to the Japanese to make money.

Those businesses have already been taken away by others.

In late August, the fighting continued.

A wave of anti-Japanese resistance emerged across the country, with students marching, people from all walks of life donating money and supplies, and local troops marching to the front line to support the national war.

This is a real national war.

News from all sides seemed to be very unfavorable to the Japanese, and meetings were held every day in Japan. Tsuchihara was also very busy during this period. Although the war was in Shanghai, his responsibility was to provide intelligence for the whole of China.

He can't stay in Shanghai forever.

As a last resort, he arranged for an honest and steady section chief to rebuild the Shanghai Special High Section first. Even if they could not help in this war, they could help the empire make contributions after the war.

Tsuchihara believed that they would definitely be the winners.

Xu Qingyun has been paying close attention to developments in the Japanese Concession, including the Shanghai Special High Section.

The news of the new chief of the Special High Police could not be hidden from him.

However, his main job at this time was to rebuild the intelligence and action groups of the Shanghai Special High Section. All of them were lost. Although the people in other groups were still there, they had experienced so many changes of section chiefs and had become very sophisticated.

There were also people brought by Ishida. After Ishida died, most of these people were kicked back by Tsuchihara.

Most of the people around Ishida are his former subordinates, and they do not belong to the Special Higher Police. Ishida makes Tsuchihara very disappointed, as he does not want to use these people at all.

If it weren't for this incident, Count Ishida was very dissatisfied with him and criticized him a lot, these people would not have been able to return alive.

Tsuchihara will definitely assign them tasks that will lead to their deaths and use them as cannon fodder.

Excluding dissidents is everywhere.

By September, the battle in Shanghai had become more intense.

With the arrival of Japanese reinforcements, the Guo army had an extremely difficult time fighting. General Zhang Xizhi proposed before the war that they should send troops as soon as possible to drive the Japanese into the sea first and not give them a chance to reinforce.

Unfortunately, the old man was indecisive and rejected his suggestion.

This incident made Zhang Xizhi very angry. If he had followed his plan, it would not have been 100% successful, but at least it would not have been as difficult as it is now.

People have already drawn their butcher knives, and you still have illusions?
Zhang Xizhi was very disappointed, but for the sake of the country and the nation, he had to stay on the front line to command the battle.

"Boss, Xu Qingyun sent another batch of supplies over."

Lu Zhiheng came to the office and whispered. General Zhang raised his head and nodded slightly: "He is a caring person, but it's a pity that I failed him and failed to drive the Japanese out."

In total, Xu Qingyun has delivered three batches of supplies, and each time there was a lot.

In addition to medicines, there are also daily necessities such as food, wood, coal, as well as meat and vegetables.

Xu Qingyun never sent gifts in a personal capacity, but always as support from the Military Intelligence Department to the army.

On the surface, General Zhang also publicly thanked Dai Yunong for their support.

This is exactly what makes Xu Qingyun so smart.

He had a good relationship with the military and always sent gifts to the military in his personal name, which easily aroused the old man's taboo.

Just use the name of the Military Intelligence Department, sell it half and half give it away, it doesn't matter even if the benefits and reputation are taken away by the director.

The key is to resist Japan.

Just help the frontline fighters.

"Stationmaster, everything is ready."

In Shanghai, Yan Ming and Zhao San came to Xu Qingyun's office together. Long before the war, Xu Qingyun had made arrangements in the concession. When the war broke out, he asked them to rent some houses there.

These will be their safe houses from now on.

"Arrange some people to go in in advance, and I will help them get their official work done."

Xu Qingyun nodded. Shanghai could not hold out for much longer, so he had to prepare for its fall from now on.

In the early stages of the war, the concessions were definitely the safest places, but the attitudes of Britain, the United States, and France would continue to change, and the uncertainty of the concessions in the future would increase until they were taken away by the Japanese.

"Stationmaster, is it true that Shanghai cannot be defended?"

Yan Ming couldn't help but ask, there are now quite a few Guo troops gathered in Shanghai, although the Japanese are increasing their troops, their manpower is limited.

Even though they had ships and powerful guns, these ships could not sail to land, so the real combat was still done by the army.

With several times the enemy's strength, even if we cannot defeat them, at least we can maintain our dignity like in the last war.

This is not only Yan Ming's idea, but also the idea of ​​many Chinese people.

"We should prepare for a rainy day. If we can hold on, that's the best. If we can't, we should be prepared for ambush operations."

Xu Qingyun shook his head slightly. He would not tell Yan Ming that Shanghai could never be defended. There was no need for that.

Be prepared in advance and you will be able to handle anything.

"Yes, stationmaster."

Yan Ming lowered his head and accepted the order. The stationmaster was right. Regardless of whether Shanghai could be defended or not, they should do their own work well first to avoid being in a difficult situation once Shanghai was lost.

His idea is human nature. Who doesn't want to win?

We cannot repel the Japanese, nor can we let them advance. We did it last time, and there is hope this time as well. What's more, the anti-Japanese sentiment is high across the country this time, and reinforcements are constantly being sent from all over the country.

The old man even sent out elite German-equipped divisions to fight the Japanese head-on.

Zhao San didn't say a word, but his thoughts were exactly the opposite of Yan Ming's.

The person Zhao San admired most was Xu Qingyun. In his eyes, the stationmaster had never made a mistake. Since the stationmaster was sure that Shanghai could not be defended, this would definitely happen.

He doesn't need to think too much, the webmaster will definitely make some arrangements, and he just needs to do things according to the webmaster's ideas.

Zhao San’s idea is simple. He knows that he is where he is today because of the webmaster. From now on, he just needs to follow the webmaster closely and doesn’t need to think too much.

The war continued and became even more brutal in September.

Reinforcements from all over the country arrived one after another, but no one expected that this war would be so cruel.

Many troops were rotated out as soon as they arrived, and often more than half of them were lost in just one day or even half a day.

The number of officers who sacrificed their lives was countless.

The Japanese planes and artillery brought them too much pain.

The supplies that Xu Qingyun had provided to support Zhang Xizhi had long been used up. General Zhang did not keep any of them and used them all on the soldiers, but it was still not enough.

"Didn't we just send in sulfa? How come it's gone again?"

Lu Zhiheng looked at the temporary director of the military medical department who came over, frowning. The director was sweating and kept smiling bitterly: "Adjutant Lu, I guarantee that no one has embezzled. All the sulfonamides were used on the wounded. We have too many wounded."

All the injured suffered external injuries, and the serious external injuries are prone to infection.

The more people are infected, the more medicine they use.

The dean did not lie. The price of sulfa drugs on the black market has skyrocketed, comparable to gold. He was afraid that some people would not use it, so he deliberately sold it.

He personally arranged every injection of sulfa to avoid this situation.

"Wait a minute. I will report to the general."

Lu Zhiheng didn't quite believe what the dean said, but he didn't investigate and would not directly conclude that the dean was corrupt.

"Boss, should we first investigate their use of sulfa?"

After Lu Zhiheng reported the situation, he spoke in a low voice, while Zhang Xizhi shook his head slightly.

He knew that the director was a good person, and there were indeed too many wounded patients in the hospital. When there were too many wounded patients, a lot of them needed to use sulfa drugs.

Especially for serious injuries, medication treatment must be used first, otherwise the later infection is likely to aggravate the condition and cannot be saved.

As far as he knew, not so many wounded people died of infection in the hospital. The few who died were because their injuries were too severe, or they had used sulfa drugs before and developed drug resistance, which reduced the efficacy of the drugs when used again, and they died.

These data show that the dean did not engage in corruption.

"Give them five more boxes."

"Five boxes. We don't have many left."

Lu Zhiheng was stunned. Now Shanghai was full of battlefields, and there was more than one temporary field hospital.

Other troops coming to support also need support with the drug sulfa.

We cannot let these brother troops travel thousands of miles to fight against the Japanese, only to suffer regrets in the end because of minor injuries.

"It's okay, give it to them."

Zhang Xizhi nodded. Sulfonamide is a controlled drug. During this period, some people in the hospital had been executed by him because of corruption.

Each sulfa drug represents a life. Taking away the sulfa drugs means taking away the lives of these anti-Japanese fighters.

Once such people are discovered, they will be shot immediately.

"Yes."

Lu Zhiheng had no choice. They still had a batch of goods in their hands. Mainly because Zhang Xizhi had stored a batch before, and Xu Qingyun sent a lot more after the war.

Even so, there are only a few dozen boxes left in stock.

With the current intensity of the war, these dozens of boxes can only last for two days at most and will soon be exhausted.

"General Zhang."

Not long after Lu Zhiheng went out, he came in with someone, with excitement on his face.

"Zhao San, you're here. Where's your stationmaster?"

The person who came was Zhao San. Xu Qingyun had a mission and couldn't go out, so he sent him here specially.

"Our stationmaster has a mission. He knows that the war is very intense recently, so he asked me to deliver a batch of things. Here is the list. Please accept it."

This is the fourth batch of supplies sent by Xu Qingyun. It is very comprehensive. Apart from weapons, he sends whatever the front line needs.

"Three hundred boxes."

When Zhang Xizhi saw the amount of sulfa drugs in the list, he was stunned. Three hundred boxes of sulfa drugs is not a small number. It is a huge sum of money when converted into US dollars.

"This is the last batch of goods from the United States this year. It just arrived in Shanghai not long ago. While the Japanese were not paying attention, our stationmaster brought it up. If you still need it, please ask again and our stationmaster will find a way to help you transport it."
