Chapter 511: Nanyang Overseas Chinese

Sun Zhen also took a look at the man in the Zhongshan suit at the doorway; at this moment, Yang Xiangchu spoke: "Commander-in-Chief Sun."

"I hope Mr. Chen can also come in!"

"Certainly!" Sun Zhen nodded: "Bring tea!"

Following closely, Mr. Chen and Yang Xiangchu entered the operations room.

The tea had already been prepared; Mr. Chen picked up the tea and took a light sip.

After finishing his tea, Yang Xiangchu looked at Sun Zhen: "Commander-in-Chief Sun, could I trouble you to send troops to escort us to Hengshan?"

"Of course, is there a reward for this?"

"It is estimated that it will be able to return to normal after three hours."

After the founding of New China, Mr. Chen Jiageng funded the construction of the Yingxia Railway in mountainous Fujian Province, which became the first railway in our country built with funds from a private individual.

"Sit..." Sun Zhen pondered for a moment: "Orderly, bring tea."

"This is a matter for the Military Statistics Bureau, you can speak boldly," Sun Zhen said with a wave of his hand.

"After the Old Soldier receives the intelligence, he will post the information on the billboard on West Street in Changsha."

Hearing this, Yang Xiangchu understood that there was a Japanese Spy in the Hunan Province branch of the Military Statistics Bureau, and the scope was narrowed down to Hunan Province, making it easier to investigate.

"Oh!" Sun Zhen said with a smile: "What else was said!"

Therefore, he nodded to Sun Zhen, indicating that he could agree to the request of the Military Statistics Bureau.

In the time that followed, after the engineers of the Preparatory Seventh Division arrived, they immediately began to repair the railway.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Chen looked at Yu Hua: "Indeed!"

Mr. Chen Jiageng organized the "Nanyang Overseas Chinese Relief General Association for Refugees in the Motherland" in Nanyang, mobilizing Overseas Chinese in Nanyang to donate enthusiastically and purchase national salvation bonds;

He selected and sent Overseas Chinese drivers back to the country to transport anti-war supplies on the Burma Road, making a huge contribution to our country's War of Resistance Against Japan;

Now that Mr. Chen has returned to the country, he is likely going to Hengshan to meet with Principal.

To thank the engineer brothers for their efforts, Yu Hua had Sun Hui distribute two packs of Instant Noodles to each of the engineers.

Regarding this Patriot, Yu Hua felt he could be escorted to Hengshan, as it was on the way anyway.

"What a coincidence!" Sun Zhen said with a laugh: "We are also going to Hengshan."

"This is absolutely unacceptable to the Japanese Army; they will assassinate Mr. Chen Jiageng and then frame the Republic of China Government."

"The Japanese Army Special Higher Police learned that the Republic of China Government had invited Mr. Chen Jiageng to return to the country, and guessed that the National Government wanted Mr. Chen Jiageng to raise funds and arms for the War of Resistance from Nanyang."

"In the future, if you need my help in Hunan Province, just ask."

"The Japanese Army Special Higher Police obtained this news from the Hunan Province branch of the Military Statistics Bureau; Yamaguchi Ichiro only knows that the spy code name for the Hunan Province branch of the Military Statistics Bureau is 'Old Soldier'."

The train station in Hengshan County is now under military management.

"We are of one mind, no need to say more," Sun Zhen paused: "You had better hurry and deal with the Traitor inside the Military Statistics Bureau."

Just as Yang Xiangchu was about to take Mr. Chen away, a Staff Officer in charge of interrogations arrived: "Report to the Commander-in-Chief."

After the tea was served, Chu Mingfei immediately clarified his purpose: "Commander-in-Chief Sun, I have received orders from our Division Commander to stand guard here."

Hearing this, the Staff Officer's gaze turned to Sun Zhen.

Hearing this, Yang Xiangchu immediately interjected: "What about the spy inside the Military Statistics Bureau?"

Subsequently, Yang Xiangchu left with Mr. Chen.

Yang Xiangchu stood up, saluted Sun Zhen, and then also saluted Yu Hua: "Yang thanks you both here."

"Commander-in-Chief Sun, my people from the Military Statistics Bureau have arrived; thank you for your help along the way, we shall meet again."

Many people had heard before that there were many benefits to working for the Sichuan Army; sometimes the Sichuan Army not only gave food but also distributed silver dollars and Cigarette.

Soon, Sun Zhen had someone invite Chu Mingfei onto the special train!

Upon seeing Sun Zhen, Chu Mingfei immediately stepped forward and saluted: "Greetings, Commander-in-Chief Sun!"

"Attempting to sow discord and cause the Republic of China Government to lose the hearts of the people in Nanyang."

"Fighting the devils!"

"May I ask Commander-in-Chief Sun, do you have any other needs that I can convey?"

"After escorting Mr. Chen, I will definitely catch the spy within half a month."

In an instant, Yu Hua knew who the person in front of him was.

Sun Zhen waved his hand: "Restore railway operations as soon as possible, there are no other needs."

"The railway was bombed, our Division Commander is already mobilizing the engineers, and we will work through the night to repair it!"

At the station, many special trains had already arrived, and troops were coming and going, including the Central Army, the Sichuan Army, the Yunnan Army, and the Northeast Army!

When getting off the train, Yang Xiangchu came before Sun Zhen.

Each and every one of them wished they could encounter the Sichuan Army again and work for the Sichuan Army.

Just as Yu Hua and Sun Zhen were preparing to rest, a soldier outside reported that the Division Commander of the local garrison's Preparatory Seventh Division had sent Chu Mingfei to see Sun Zhen.

Regarding this, Yang Xiangchu looked at Sun Zhen and saluted him: "Many thanks, Commander-in-Chief Sun."

"Mr. Chen!"

He has a high reputation in Nanyang; as an Overseas Chinese leader, he once provided funds in Nanyang to support Mr. Sun in resisting the Qing Government, and he also provided a large amount of funds during the Northern Expedition.

"Also, notify the garrisons along the line to strengthen the management of the railway to prevent Japanese Army spies from blowing up the railway again."

Now, the soldiers of the Preparatory Seventh Division feel that what was said among the military ranks was really not wrong!

This Sichuan Army is not bad; they have things to share, and they really do share!

"I have always lived in Nanyang!"

"Captain Yang, since it is on the way, you can escort Mr. Chen to Hengshan!"

Unlike other armies, where one person eats alone!

After the train left, no dangerous incidents were encountered along the way.

"You are not a person of the Republic of China, are you?"

Yang Xiangchu nodded: "I already have a few targets in mind."

The railway tracks along the way were also strictly guarded by the local garrison, and the Japanese Army spies prepared to carry out a second ambush, but they did not succeed.

Moreover, during the War of Resistance, Chen Jiageng personally donated over 100 Fighter Planes, over 1,000 vehicles, and tens of thousands of pieces of ammunition and relief grain.

Let alone eating them, now that the Sichuan Army gave them Instant Noodles, everyone was quite happy in their hearts.

"Yamaguchi Ichiro has confessed!"

Hearing this, Yang Xiangchu hesitated for a moment, but Yu Hua, who was on the side, took over the conversation.

"Have you interrogated it out of them?"

"Understood!" Chu Mingfei nodded, saluted Sun Zhen, and then left.

The surname is Chen, a Nanyang person; isn't this Chen Jiageng!

Chen Jiageng was a famous Nanyang wealthy merchant who raised a lot of funds for the Republic of China's War of Resistance.

For Mr. Chen Jiageng, Yu Hua felt very respectful in his heart.

Originally requiring three hours, thanks to the efforts of the combat engineers, it was repaired in an hour and a half.

"What are you going to Hengshan for?"

The special train escorting Chen Jiageng had an accident; after Dai Chunfeng in Hengshan learned of it, he immediately contacted the local garrison and then had the garrison coordinate with the Sichuan Army.

The special train that Sun Zhen was riding on continued for another three hours before finally arriving at the county seat where Hengshan was located.

"Commander-in-Chief, Yamaguchi Ichiro belongs to the Hunan Province Special Higher Police Section, and their mission was to assassinate Mr. Chen Jiageng."

Nowadays, Instant Noodles are considered strategic supplies, almost equivalent to ammunition; like these rear-area garrisons, they rarely come into contact with Instant Noodles.

Chu Mingfei and the others, who were responsible for guarding, also received a pack of Instant Noodles.

"If Traitors are not dealt with, it will have a great impact on our subsequent reorganization and preparation for war."

"See you later!" Sun Zhen nodded.

Chen Jiageng and Yang Xiangchu walked toward the Military Statistics Bureau's camp, while Yu Hua and Sun Zhen stayed at the train station, waiting for their own Guard Battalion to assemble.
