When Zhong Yi and Kangmaode arrived at the China Merchants Wharf, An Zhenyuan had already arrived with all the members of the Special Forces Brigade and had already bought the ticket.

At this time, several ship companies were engaged in operations between Yinjiang and Shanghai, and there were shifts during the day and night.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the Taiping Row of China Merchants slowly drove into the China Merchants Wharf, and Zhong Yi and Kang Mood hid among the members of the Special Forces Team and boarded the ship quietly.

Seven hours later, at around 5 a.m. the next day, the Taiping Wheel was parked at the China Merchants Wharf in the French Concession.

At this time, the Bund on Shanghai was already full of traffic and was very lively, and the China Merchants Wharf was even more crowded.

In order to avoid disturbing the eyeliner of Shanghai Meiyuan and No. 76 as much as possible, the members of the Special Forces Brigade had already made full preparations halfway. Some of the members changed into ragged clothes and entered the third-class cabin; some of the members changed into exquisite long gowns, then wore wide-brimmed top hats, and entered the first-class cabin to disguise themselves as merchants.

Some special forces members wore Zhongshan outfits and disguised themselves as students.

After docking, nearly 200 team members got off the ship in batches and then headed to No. 70 Dumei Road, Asia Hotel and the Four Seas Rickshaw.

Asia Hotel and the Rickshaw Cars in the West are all reception points of the Military Control Commission.

There are indeed No. 76 eyeliners on China Merchants Wharf on site, and there are more than one, but these eyeliners did not notice anything wrong.

However, Zhong Yi did not join his team members, but followed Commod to the American Embassy in the Public Concession.

Because halfway through, Commod had already agreed with Zhong Yi that during Zhong Yi's time in Shanghai, it would be best to live in the American Embassy in the public concession.

At least personal safety is guaranteed in the US Embassy.

Zhong Yi did not reject Commod's kindness, but agreed happily.

Even Zhong Yi had an idea, maybe he could change his identity and make an open event in Shanghai?

Before leaving for Shanghai, Commod had already called the Shanghai Embassy, ​​so when they came out, a Ford sedan sent by the Shanghai Embassy had already been waiting at the exit.

I had nothing to say all the way, and after more than an hour, I arrived at the American Embassy in Shanghai.

The Shanghai Embassy is one of the four major embassies in China. Its specifications are higher than that of the Yinjiang Embassy, ​​second only to the embassy in Nanjing. However, the embassy has moved to Chongqing with the National Government, so the Shanghai Embassy has now become the highest diplomatic institution of the United States in the entire East China and even central China.

The ambassador to Shanghai has returned to China to report his work and is said to be not back.

The vacant position of minister is likely to be held by Commod.

Zhong Yi suspected that this was the main reason why Commode came to Shanghai together.

However, what surprised Zhong Yi was that he met an old American friend, Colonel Stilwell, who had not seen him for nearly half a year, at the Shanghai Embassy!

"Zhong, it's so great to see you again in Shanghai."

Stilwell opened his arms and walked up to hug Zhong Yi with a warm hug.

Since the disbandment of the Wuhan Garrison Command in early September last year, Stilwell has finished his temporary position as the command's staff officer, and soon transferred to Shanxi, Henan, Chongqing and other places for inspection.

So so far, the two have not met for more than five months.

After the greetings, the topic inevitably turned to the War of Resistance Against Japan.

Zhong Yi asked: "Joseph, you have been inspecting Shanxi, Henan, Chongqing and other places over the past few months. What are the results? Have you summed up any exciting conclusions?"

"I'm afraid there are no exciting conclusions, but there are many frustrating discoveries. Do you want to hear them?" Speaking of this more than five-month investigation, Stilwell's expression dimmed.

Zhong Yi didn't say anything, he could guess what Stilwell wanted to say.

But Commod asked curiously: "Col. Stilwell, what did you find?"

Stilwell sighed: "According to common sense, as the Sino-Japanese War enters a stalemate stage, the pressure the Kuomintang army faces in frontal battlefields will be greatly reduced, so there is plenty of time to supplement and even train, so the combat effectiveness of the Kuomintang army should be greatly strengthened in a short period of time, right?"

"Of course." Commod nodded, "The National Army not only has a large number of elite veterans who have lived for the rest of their lives, but also has an almost endless source of troops. Therefore, as long as they are given enough time, they can definitely quickly form an army of many precision and extremely combative power. I even think that the Chinese army will be able to launch a strategic counterattack soon."

"Strategic counterattack? I'm afraid that strategic counterattack will never be possible." Stilwell shook his head, "I don't know much about the national army in other war zones in nearly half a year since the end of the Wuhan Battle, but the combat effectiveness of the national army in the First and Second war zones has been declining beyond imagination. Many phenomena are really shocking."

"What about?" Commod frowned, "Give an example."

Stilwell said: "Mr. Minister, can you believe that the Kuomintang army will join forces with the Japanese and puppet troops to encircle and suppress the Eighth Route Army guerrillas?"

"What did you say?" Commod said dumbfoundedly, "The Kuomintang army and the Japanese and puppet army joined forces to encircle and suppress the Eighth Route Army? Are the Eighth Route Army and the National Army not friendly? How can we join forces with the enemy to encircle and suppress their own friendly army?"

"What's this?" Stilwell smiled and continued, "There are many generals of the National Army who clearly marked the price. As long as the Japanese and puppet troops could afford the price, they would lead their troops to the enemy camp. In addition to these, such as planting and selling opium and secretly reselling arms, it is even more common. Let me say that, the National Army in the First and Second War Zones are already thinking about getting rich, or simply selling themselves at a high price. No one really wants to fight against the invaders!"

"How could this happen?" Constantly, Commod continued, "But fortunately, China is large enough and has a large population. Even if all the national troops on the battlefield behind enemy lines are rotten, they still have hope."

"When it comes to hope, please be honest, the Kuomintang army is afraid there is no hope anymore." Stilwell said to Zhong Yi, paused and said, "Zhong, this time I also went to Chongqing, Guizhou and even Yunnan to inspect the recruitment process of the tyrants, and the result was even more shocking."

Commod said: "What a shocking thing?"

Stilwell said: "The officials of the local military service office were like bullies. They caught men when they saw them. They found that someone ran away and shot them on the spot without any discrimination! Even if the strong men caught were not given food, they would not be given food. They walked forward and some people starved to death. It would be great if ten strong men were sent to the front line to survive five!"
