    Chapter 73: Investigation into the city (new book, please watch)

    Meilong Town is located in the southern suburbs of Shanghai, more than ten kilometers away from the center of Shanghai. Because it was the focus of competition between China and Japan, the town has been reduced to ruins inside and outside, and the people have fled.

    With the withdrawal of Chinese troops from Shanghai, the place lost its strategic value until it was abandoned.

    ??????????? In addition, the little Japanese troops are already stretched thin, so the Shanghai Expeditionary Army Headquarters does not station troops here.

    After discovering this situation, Li Guoyao openly ordered the troops to station here!

    Since he was not clear about the situation in Shanghai, Li Guoyao left the main force to rest and recuperate, while he entered Shanghai alone to inquire for information.

    Li Guoyao, who was dressed in military uniform, did not hide his figure at all. He appeared in Shanghai in a swaggering manner, and even the Japanese soldiers setting up traffic jams on the street did not stop him.

    Although after three months of bloody fighting, the urban area of ??Shanghai was basically destroyed, but in less than half a month, order in the urban area of ??Shanghai has been restored.

    Of course, under the high pressure of the Japanese, no one dared to make mistakes, but the ruins and rubbles all over the streets told people about the tragedy of the previous war!

    There are many pedestrians on the street, but all of them are in a hurry and look solemn!

    And when everyone saw Li Guoyao, who was dressed as a Japanese lieutenant, they all hid away as if they were seeing the god of plague.

    Li Guoyao didn't take it seriously either. He knew that the reputation of the Japanese in China had been ruined. From the Lushun Massacre to the Jinan Massacre, and then to the Tenth Army of the Japanese Army after they landed at Jinshanwei, they burned, killed and looted all the way to Nanjing. In the eyes of the Chinese,  , the Japanese are inhuman beasts, demons in human skin.

    After entering the city, Li Guoyao first inquired about the location of the Japanese Army Shanghai Expedition Headquarters, and then inquired about the location of military camps, train stations, radio stations, arsenals and other strategic locations.

    When Li Guoyao transferred to the Japanese field hospital in the east of the city, it was already after nine o'clock in the evening. He thought that the Japs' curfew was about to begin. Even officers who appeared on the streets at night might be interrogated by the Japs.  , so Li Guoyao decided to try his luck in the little devil's field hospital.

    Firstly, this is because this field hospital is a treatment center specially set up by the Japs for the injured officers and soldiers on the Songhu battlefield. It also serves as a wounded soldier camp. More than half of the wounded soldiers from the Songhu battlefield were sent here, and there was a mixed crowd.  It would be difficult for a person like Li Guoyao who is proficient in Japanese to be identified if he blends in.

    Secondly, the people here come from various master troupes, so it can be regarded as a distribution center for information. As long as you inquire carefully, you will always collect some useful information.

    After observing outside the field hospital for a while, I found that the entire hospital was extremely poorly guarded. The soldiers standing guard outside the gate did not question the Japanese officers and soldiers entering and leaving at all, and there were no spoken codes. Li Guoyao immediately tidied his clothes and walked in.

    Sure enough, when Li Guoyao appeared at the gate, the soldiers on guard did not question his identity, and Li Guoyao easily entered the field hospital.

    In fact, it is not to blame these little devils for neglecting their duties. The main reason is that as the Tenth Army landed at Jinshanwei, it cut off the Chinese army's retreat. Hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops on the Songhu battlefield retreated in panic, almost becoming a great rout.  .

    Under this circumstance, the Shanghai dispatched troops worked hard to quickly drive the Chinese army out of Shanghai.  As the mayor of Shanghai announced the fall of Shanghai, it marked the official end of the Songhu Battle with the Japanese army's capture of Shanghai.

    After occupying Shanghai, the Japanese army conducted a week-long sweep of the entire city of Shanghai. All broken and wounded soldiers who had not been able to evacuate Shanghai were found one after another and then secretly executed.  Even those who were lucky enough not to be found hid under such circumstances and did not dare to show their faces at all.

    At this time, the city of Shanghai was peaceful, and the Japanese simply did not believe that anyone would dare to blatantly sneak into a strategic location such as a field hospital.

    What's more important is that the field hospital has a mixed population. In addition to a large number of wounded, people from various troops are also sent to collect commonly used medicines every day. If they have to stop each one for questioning and verify their identity, the workload will be too much.  .

    After entering the little devil's field hospital, Li Guoyao found that the hospital was much larger than he expected. Not only were the two five-story buildings at the front and back filled with wounded little devils, but even the dozens of yards behind were crowded.  Full of wounded.

    Due to the limited number of beds, except for the seriously injured, all those with minor injuries were arranged in the corridor and the yard outside, so that the entire field wasThere were wounded soldiers inside and outside the courtyard.

    Even though it was night, the hospital was still busy. Doctors and nurses were all in a hurry, and everyone looked tired.

    After walking around on the first floor, Li Guoyao didn't find anything valuable. However, just as Li Guoyao was about to go up to the second floor, a slender female nurse suddenly stopped her and asked, "Do you need anything?"  Help?"

    Li Guoyao was stunned for a moment, and then said immediately: "Hello, I am the combat staff officer of the dispatched army headquarters. I have been ordered to come to pick up some medicines. Who should I call?"

    "Sir, are you here to get medicine for General Matsui? Didn't Dr. Hasegawa bring the medicine?" the female nurse asked with a surprised look on her face.

    "You misunderstood. Although I am a staff officer of the Dispatch Army Staff Headquarters, I am getting medicine to treat gunshot wounds for Second Lieutenant Takeda of the Military Police. By the way, your accent sounds like you are from Kyoto?"

    "I'm from the suburbs of Kyoto. My name is Yamada Sumiko. What's your name? Your accent sounds like you're from Kyoto too!"

    Li Guoyao said immediately: "My name is Sato Haraichiro, a Kyoto native, and I come from a samurai family. Please take good care of me!"

    "Then we are fellow villagers, please take care of us!" the female nurse said with a look of surprise.

    "By the way, the General Matsui you just mentioned is not the Commander-in-Chief of our Dispatch Force, Matsui-dono. Is there something wrong with your health?"

    The female nurse looked at Li Guoyao with confusion and said, "Don't you know?"

    "What do you know? I was just sent to the frontline troops to perform tasks two days ago. I just came back yesterday. I don't know much about the situation at the headquarters!"

    "That's it. To tell you the truth, Mr. Matsushita has committed an old habit. All the doctors on the front line in Shanghai are helpless. You have been unable to handle official business for several days!" Yamada Sumiko said.

    Suddenly, a flash of enlightenment flashed through Li Guoyao's eyes. According to historical records, at the end of the Songhu Battle, the commander of the Shanghai Expeditionary Army, Matsui Iwane, suffered from tuberculosis and was bedridden and unable to take charge of military affairs.  Subsequently, the Japanese base camp appointed Asaka Palace to replace Matsui in the rank of Army Lieutenant General.

    Thinking of this, Li Guoyao suddenly said: "It seems that everything Takeda-kun said is true!"

    "What?"

    "Oh, Takeda-kun told me this morning that his family sent him top-secret information, saying that due to some special reasons, Prince Asaka Palace Hatohiko will succeed Matsui-dono as the commander of the dispatch army. Originally, I was not very familiar with this.  Believe it, it seems all this is true!¡±

    "Your fellow countryman didn't lie to you. King Asaka Palace Hatohiko has indeed arrived in Shanghai, and has been appointed as the commander of the dispatch army by the base camp!" Sumiko Yamada said with certainty.

    "Oh, how did you know?"

    Yamada Junmei smiled and said: "Because my brother is the guard squadron leader next to His Highness. He just came to the hospital to see me and told me this. But please Sato-kun please don't tell this, because at the base camp  It would be extremely rude of us to speak out before a clear order has been given!¡±

    "Hai! Don't worry, Miss Yamada, Sato knows the rules!" Li Guoyao said confidently.

    "Oh, by the way, if your fellow countryman needs any medicine, I will take you to get it!" Yamada Sumiko said.

    "He suffered a gunshot wound, but it was not serious. The bullet has been removed!"

    ¡°If that¡¯s the case, all it takes is some sulfa and a clean bandage!¡±

    Then Sumiko Yamada took Li Guoyao to a yard at the back, and took some medicine from a room inside, wrapped it in brown paper, and handed it to Li Guoyao!

    "Thanks, bye!"

    After taking the medicine, Li Guoyao immediately turned around and left!

    "Wait a moment!"

    "Do you have anything else?" Li Guoyao asked.

    Yamada Junmiko's face turned red and she said, "Sato-kun, I see you have been in the hospital for a while. The soldiers outside have changed their guard at this time. Do you know the password?"

    "ThisI really don't know this. Can you tell me?" Li Guoyao asked, pretending to be embarrassed.

    "Well, today's password is "Mount Fuji" and the reply is "Sakura is in full bloom"! If Sato-kun returns to the headquarters and sees my brother Yamada Junichiro, please say hello to him on my behalf!"

    "Hai, I will definitely bring your thoughts to you!"

    After saying that, Li Guoyao left the field hospital without looking back!
