There was silence in the conference room. After He Yingqin finished speaking, his head kept tilting upward without moving. Bai Chongxi sat on the chair with an expressionless face and slowly sipped the tea leaves, as if the cup contained some extraordinary tea. Vice Minister Chen said
He was staring at the tea cup in his hand without blinking, as if trying to spot a flower. The rest of the people also remained silent. From time to time, the corners of their eyes glanced at Chairman Chiang Kai-shek who was sitting at the top, not daring to raise his voice.
asthma.
After a while, Chairman Chiang snorted from his nostrils and lost his temper: "Mother Xipi! According to what you said, Guangzhou can't be defended anymore, and Wuhan doesn't need to be defended anymore. Let's just surrender to the Japanese and become slaves to the subjugation of our country!"
"
Seeing the chairman's anger, no one dared to say a word, but just lowered their heads silently.
It took a long time before Vice Minister Chen said in a low voice: "Chairman, the War of Resistance is a long-term and arduous project, and it will not happen overnight. Our country has a vast territory, rich resources, and strategic depth. It is not easy for the Japanese to fully occupy our country. Now most of our country's elites
They are all around Wuhan. If this million-strong army is lost, it will be a disaster. Therefore, the urgent task now is that we can only continue to adhere to the strategy of exchanging space for time and continue to weaken the strength of the Japanese until we finally defeat the Japanese. This is the most important thing.
Important things."
"Yes, Chairman, what Ci Xiu said makes sense."
At this time, Bai Chongxi also spoke. He stood up and said sincerely: "The War of Resistance was not accomplished overnight. It required the bloodshed and sacrifice of many soldiers and the joint efforts of everyone. The reason why Japan was eager to launch the Wuhan Campaign
, that’s because they tried to force our government to surrender by occupying Wuhan, in an attempt to enslave our 40 million compatriots, but they forgot one thing, our National Government is not the Manchu Qing court, and will never make peace with them, even if
Wuhan was lost. We can still retreat to Sichuan, where we still have vast territory and millions of troops to deal with them."
Having said this, Bai Chongxi's face turned red, and his expression became a little excited. He continued: "Chairman, the Japanese army has strategically surrounded Wuhan. In addition, Guangzhou is about to fall, and Wuhan has no way to defend it."
Necessary, now is the time to consider moving the capital again."
"Move the capital?"
Chairman Chiang chewed this word in his mouth. There was bitterness on his face. Since the July 7th Incident, he moved from Nanjing to Wuhan in just one year. Will he move again now?
Seeing that Chairman Chiang was silent, everyone already knew that the big boss had begun to move. So He Yingqin also stood up and said: "Yes, Chairman, Jiansheng is right. Now is the time to move the capital again. Our ancestors also said
, leaving green mountains without worrying about having no firewood. Chongqing has made preparations. We will temporarily move the capital to Chongqing. As the leader of a country, you must not stay in a dangerous place like Wuhan anymore."
Seeing that everyone was urging him to move the capital in unison, Chairman Jiang sighed, and finally nodded silently, and then said: "Since everyone said so, let's start making preparations. But there is one thing you must remember,
We must not be as panicked as Nanjing this time. We must relocate the people and people from all walks of life properly, and we must not leave it to the Japanese. Do you understand?"
Everyone stood up and said in unison: "I will follow Chairman Chiang's teachings!"
After confirming the decision to move the capital again, the Nationalist Government also began to direct the troops around Wuhan to gradually break away from contact with the Japanese army. They began to evacuate to the surrounding areas, and the 300 Division stationed at Songshan Pass also received orders from the Ninth Theater Command.
"Are we finally going to retreat?"
Looking at the message in his hand, a feeling of powerlessness came to Su Rui's heart. After working hard for so long, was he still unable to change the fate of Wuhan?
As if seeing the confusion and confusion in Su Rui's heart, Liang Zhi sat down and said, "Aren't you very unwilling?"
"Yes!" Su Rui smiled bitterly: "Originally, I thought I could change some things with my own efforts, but I didn't expect that history would continue on its path. Am I always doing some useless work?
?”
Liang Zhi naturally didn't know what the historical trajectory Su Rui was referring to. He said calmly: "I don't know what the historical trajectory is. I only know that since this war has allowed our soldiers to catch up, anything else can be said."
Fake, there is only one word, fight! Regardless of the outcome, as long as we do what we should do, even if we die on the battlefield, we will die with no regrets!"
Liang Zhi's words made Su Rui sigh with emotion. Yes, although he had lamented, scolded and hated him after coming to this time and space, he blamed this thief for why he let himself come to this war-torn and precarious era. But
Later, he figured it out. After all, he had caught up, so what else was there to say? He just picked up the gun and fucked the little devil. And God didn't cheat him to the end. He also gave himself a golden finger. Although he
He still can't figure out how such an unscientific thing was made, but he knows very well that it is because of him that he has been able to live so well this year and not be drowned in the vast sea of people.
Yet to the public.
The former otaku had a strong ability to self-regulate. After sighing for a while, Su Rui regained his composure. He took a breath to calm down and then said: "Zi Ran, since the higher-ups have issued orders to retreat.
Order, then we should move to Gaozhou (Maoming) according to the original plan."
Liang Zhi couldn't help but smile and shake the telegram in his hand and said: "You see, the Chairman and Chief Chen are very trustworthy. He has given you the title of Maoming County Security Commander as agreed, and the relationship has been transferred to the third level.
Went to the Fourth War Zone."
"Yes!" Su Rui also said with emotion: "Now we are far away from those big guys, and we have much more freedom of movement. We no longer have to worry about someone using us like toilet paper."
To be honest, Su Rui was really disappointed with his superiors. He had made so many contributions, but his superiors pretended not to notice and still fought hard for himself and the Japanese. Well, just fight as hard as you can, but you
You have to replenish yourself with some ammunition, food, pay and personnel, but this guy has done an incredible job. It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t provide ammunition, and he doesn’t even provide a replacement soldier. This is too ugly. So Su Rui just
In anger, I want to set up a new branch. Although I can't do things like fighting with my roommates under the banner of the Anti-Japanese War at this time, I can always develop my territory far away from you and fight the Japanese.
Liang Zhi also thought for a while and then said: "Maoming is indeed a good place. Not only is it far away from the jurisdiction of the central government, but it is also not far from Guangxi. In this way, Chief Li and the others can take care of each other and act as horns for each other.
Our future development is also very favorable. Now what we have to consider is how to retreat and which way to take. There are now fifty or sixty thousand troops gathered around the Tianjia Town Fortress. If my prediction is correct, we should be listed as the last
A group of retreating troops."
"It's not that it should be, it's for sure!" Su Rui said grimly: "This is a trick used by the big guys of the Central Army. Although they are not ambiguous when fighting, when it comes to dealing with miscellaneous troops...
…Humph…This has become their habit.”
Having said this, Su Rui sneered silently. I will take the credit, and you will take the blame. This is already a tradition for some people.
"Sigh... When will the Chairman of the Generalissimo give up his past grievances and stop dividing the army into the Central Army and the Miscellaneous Army?"
Liang Zhi on the side also sighed and said, but he also knew that it was just talk, this kind of thing would never happen. Many generals of the miscellaneous army have led soldiers for half their lives and have no other means of making a living.
, coupled with the fact that the country currently does not have a good retirement system and other social security systems, the army is naturally regarded as their lifeblood. Without the army, they would not even be able to eat. How would they do it under such circumstances?
Are you willing to give up your army and territory?
As a result, the conflict between the motley army and the government arose. One side wanted to annex the other side's army, while the other side was desperately trying to protect itself for survival or rights and interests. This created a conflict between the two sides.
It became more and more intense and irreconcilable, and it evolved into today's situation.
"Report!"
While Su Rui and Liang Zhi were relatively speechless, a communications staff officer walked in, saluted loudly and said loudly: "Sir, a telegram has been sent from the Suizhou Logistics Stay Office."
When Su Rui took the telegram and read it, his face began to change and his voice became cold: "Zi Ran, look at it, we are fighting hard at the front, and before I die, someone has started to plan the Suizhou Stay Office.
coming!"
Liang Zhi frowned when he took a look at the telegram. The telegram was jointly sent by Logistics Director Smith and Xu Yaoshan who were staying in Suizhou. They said in the telegram that in recent days, unidentified people have been visiting Magu continuously.
After snooping around the airport, they not only refused to retreat after being warned by the guards staying at the airport, but also threatened to accept the supplies from Magu Airport under orders from the superiors. And they were not just talking about it. Since yesterday, they have been armed.
Personnel began to appear around Magu Airport, forming a siege around them.
After discussion, Smith, Tabitha, Xu Yaoshan and others increased the security force at Magu Airport, while Ling sent a telegram report to Su Rui.
After reading the telegram, even Liang Zhi, a usually rigid person, couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Some people's looks are too ugly. You know we are still fighting on the front line, are they so impatient to start?"
Su Rui said with a cold face: "Profit-driven interests have always been the case since ancient times! This is not surprising, but I, Mr. Su, are not so easy to take advantage of..." (To be continued)
