ok my friends I got it and I know that the products are PhCOCl + CO2 + CO + HCl

 

but now I don't know how to do the the arrow-pushing mechanism

 

Can anyone find any way to help me with that?

 

Thank you sooooo much from my heart

Look up the mechanism for thionyl chloride acting on carboxylic acids. Oxalyl chloride behaves exactly the same way, except you need to put one more arrow in. It's a little tricky and not necessarily intuitive, so looking it up is probably the best way to go.
