For the Japanese translation officers during World War II, most people may not have a good feeling, but there is one person who uses this identity to transmit a lot of information and provide important help for the war, this person was once a Japanese translation, but at a critical moment from the Japanese guns under the muzzle of intelligence, of which "the Japanese army moved south and north" 7 words to save 290,000 Chinese soldiers, a series of intelligence transmission can be called the top spy in the Japanese military camp, he is xia Wenyuan, who is a Japanese general translator but has made great contributions to the country.
Xia Wenyuan went to Japan to study in his early years, and obtained a master's degree in Japan, this experience allowed him to master both Chinese and Japanese languages, and after completing his studies, he chose to return to his homeland, and then because of his excellent knowledge and mastery of both Chinese and Japanese languages, he was favored by the Japanese Kwantung Army and served as an interpreter for the official of the General Staff, in addition, this official had great trust in Xia Wenyuan, and even brought him with him when he tried to talk about Li Zongren, the general of the Kuomintang army.
After many round-trip trips, Li Zongren finally found the opportunity to meet with Xia Wenyuan privately, and after Li Zongren's advice, Xia Wenyuan became a spy in the base camp of the Japanese General Staff, taking advantage of the trust of the officials to act arbitrarily within the General Staff, taking the opportunity to obtain all kinds of extremely confidential information, and then handed over the information to Li Zongren, from 1394 to 1935, xia Wenyuan provided Li Zongren with information on military operations carried out by the Japanese army in Southeast Asia.
Soon, the war of aggression against China broke out, and many places fell rapidly under the Japanese offensive, but in 1938, Xia Wenyuan risked being discovered, and after collecting enough information, sent a crucial intelligence to Li Zongren, which was only seven words: "The Japanese army moved south and did not move north." At that time, a large number of Chinese troops went to Linyi to block the Japanese army for several months based on information transmitted by Xia Wenyuan.
Fighting against Japan's elite generals was not an easy task, and according to this information, Li Zongren, who had no worries, directly ordered Zhang Zizhong to lead his troops to the north to complete the encirclement with the previous troops, completely annihilated this Japanese army unit, and fought the Battle of Taierzhuang, which was later known to the world.
In general, although he was a translator for the Japanese army, he did not become a pawn of the invaders with a patriotic heart, but in the enemy camp, he still did his best to serve the motherland, collected a lot of intelligence, and played an important role in the final victory of the Taierzhuang Campaign.
