The Yan'an side was happy, but the Nanjing side was not happy. After Chiang Kai-shek's speech in Lushan, he immediately started war mobilization and began to transport a large amount of industrial equipment from East China to Wuhan, Chongqing and other places.
After learning that the 29th Army Company had lost Peiping and Tianjin, Chiang Kai-shek held two emergency meetings to discuss the future course of action.
When Chiang Kai-shek announced that the government would resolutely resist the war, Wang Jingwei, as the leader of the government, made a big speech about surrender and said to others, "Although surrender will cause losses, we can beg for compensation after surrender. This will be better than resistance."
Better." Chiang Kai-shek was so angry that he was even more determined to fight a war.
Countless telegrams continued to shuttle through the air in Nanjing. The elite troops of the Central Army of the White Party gradually began to gather in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. After long discussions with his advisers and generals, Chiang Kai-shek decided to implement National Defense Plan A. He ordered Zhang Zhizhong
The 88th Division and the 87th Division of the Ninth Group Army secretly went to Shanghai as the vanguard to prepare for combat.
On the other side, in Zhuoxian County, the war has been burning for three days and three nights.
After the Japanese army gathered 30,000 troops, they immediately began to attack. First, there was heavy artillery bombardment and aircraft bombing. Xiangyue Qingji came to the battlefield in person and looked at the Chinese position across the Juma River with a telescope. Ji Xingwen lived up to the title of good defender. The entire defense line was arranged
He was so strict that Xiangyue could not help but nod and sigh, "There are still good generals in the Chinese army."
Next to him, Bunzaburo Kawagishi said disdainfully, "It's just a small Juma River. We also defeated the thousand-year-old city of Beiping in one battle. I think this Juma River can be captured in just two days. Our 20th Division is willing to be the vanguard."
.”
Xiangyue thought for a while and said, "In the battle of Nanyuan, your 20th Division suffered a lot of losses. Let's forget it this time and let the garrison troops come in."
Ji Xingwen looked at the river beach position in front of him that was almost invisible in the fortification. He gritted his teeth and said, "It's too bullying. Don't we have any way to fight back?"
Sun Yutian, the leader of the Special Regiment next to him, sighed and said, "This is how we were defeated in Nanyuan, especially the last tank. There were hundreds of tanks. There were more machine guns than we had. We couldn't defeat them at all."
Ji Xingwen laughed and said, "We are fighting along the river this time, so we are not afraid of their tanks. Let the brothers at the back continue to dig trenches. We will make the Japanese bleed with every step they take until they are dry."
Xiangyue looked at it and said, "We don't have many artillery shells. Let the engineers build a pontoon to cross the river. How long can our ammunition last?"
The logistics officer next to him replied, "At the current consumption rate, we can last four days."
Xiangyue nodded and said, "We must break through the Juma River within three days. Chen Bing Baoding is under the city. Order all troops to advance or retreat!!"
The Japanese army during this period were all elite troops, and a single moonlight training bomb would often fire hundreds of rounds. The casualty ratio in offensive battles was generally four to one to five to one, that is, one Japanese soldier died, and the Chinese army generally suffered 4 to 5 deaths.
Talent can resist.
Ji Xingwen took advantage of the geographical location and continuously used tactics such as cavalry assault and artillery fire coverage to resist the Japanese army. After the Japanese army rushed to the river beach, he continued to organize hand-to-hand counterattacks. The battle line was in a stalemate at the Juma River for three days, and all the people on the Juma River defense line were captured.
The soil was plowed over, but the Japanese army still failed to capture the Juma River.
Ji Xingwen's eyes were red. He had not rested for three days and three nights. One-third of the army had been killed. Less than one regiment of the entire army retained full combat strength. It had reached its final limit, and reinforcements had been promised.
The troops haven't arrived yet.
What Ji Xingwen didn't know was that the Central Army reinforcements he was expecting had already arrived at Songlindian not far from him. They were only thirty miles away from his troops, and the forwards could already hear the sound of battle artillery fire.
But Ji Xingwen could never wait for this reinforcement.
On the night of the third day, the Japanese army suddenly and rarely suspended their attack. Ji Xingwen felt something was wrong and ran to the forefront to check the enemy's situation. The Japanese army suddenly fired a salvo of artillery fire. Ji Xingwen quickly hid in the fortifications, but the shells did not fire as usual.
The ground shook, and bursts of yellow gas emerged. Since it was night, the defenders did not notice anything wrong in time, and were still wondering why the Japanese army suddenly had so many dumb bombs.
Ji Xingwen was the first to feel that something was wrong. He got out of the bunker and found a cannonball right in front of him, which was constantly emitting a gas that smelled of garlic.
Ji Xingwen was well-informed and immediately recognized what this was. He shouted, "Poison gas bomb!!! Poison gas bomb!!! Everyone pay attention to poison."
But it was too late. Mustard gas is the famous king of poisonous gases, and most of Ji Xingwen's troops were not equipped with gas masks. They could only rely on cotton cloths coated with water to protect themselves from the poison. However, the Japanese army, which was almost out of ammunition, used all the gas masks at once this time.
All the poison gas bombs in stock were hit at the Juma River defense line. More than a thousand poison gas bombs plunged all frontline positions into a sea of poison gas.
Ji Xingwen was also poisoned at the first moment. He slowly felt itching in his throat and his eyes gradually blurred. He knew that he was dying, so he quickly ordered the soldiers next to him to delegate the command to Sun through word of mouth.
Yutian.
Xiangyue looked at the increasingly quiet position on the opposite side and shook her hand. Rows of Japanese soldiers wearing gas masks passed through the pontoon bridge built in the past few days. Ji Xingwen was getting weaker and weaker. At this time, his throat was already
He scratched himself, and his eyes were completely blind. He kept hearing the screams of his troops, looking up to the sky with tears, reaching out to grab something, but was stabbed in the chest by a bayonet.
Ji Xingwen, one of the four famous anti-Japanese groups, was killed in action.
The Jumahe position was lost.
Xiangyue immediately used the 11th independent mixed brigade of the Japanese army as the main force, and coordinated with a rapid assault force of more than 100 Japanese tanks to pass through the Juma River and prepare to continue to capture Zhuoxian. At this time, Sun Lianzhong of the 26th Route Army had already arrived in Zhuoxian.
The Japanese army had taken over the retreat of the 29th Army and was desperately defending Zhuoxian County. The Japanese army, which was running out of ammunition, had to retreat temporarily when it saw the Chinese army with reinforcements coming from the opposite side. Since then, the war in North China has come to an end.
Xiangyue's war in North China was booming, but Japan was caught in a dispute over strategic direction. In the beginning, the Battle of Peking and Tianjin was based on the excuse of punishing the 29th Army for defending Japanese overseas Chinese in Peking and Tianjin. So now that Peking and Tianjin have been decided, why are they still fighting?
It's attacking.
After Ishihara got the news, he was really speechless at these brainless armies. They had no ammunition and they were still attacking desperately. Isn't this an obvious hope to drag down the entire empire? He immediately reported to the emperor and said, "It has been six years since we got Manchuria."
Years have passed, but there are still many people who oppose the empire. If North China is captured, I think one million imperial troops will be needed, and it will take more than half a year. It will probably take more than ten years to turn it into the paradise of the emperor. By then, I am afraid that the Soviet Union
It will benefit Britain and the United States."
The emperor was extremely angry after receiving the news. He was not angry that the military wanted to annex China, but he also wanted to annex China. But the emperor is the god of Japan, and now someone actually deceived the god and promised to defeat Pingjin. Now,
But they are attacking Hebei. Will the army be allowed to attack the Soviet Union in the future, but the army will bombard Nanyang? This is unforgivable.
The emperor immediately summoned Konoe, who quickly apologized and said he would give an explanation, and then immediately convened a meeting of the six ministers.
Lu Xiang Sugiyama Gen was very proud this time. He looked at the Hai Xiang with sideways eyes. After hearing Konoe's inquiry, he immediately said, "The situation at that time was critical. Only by attacking instead of defending can we capture Pingjin. But now 29
Although the army was defeated, the main force has not been eliminated. The Chinese army is still moving north in a steady stream. Now Hebei has more than 200,000 troops, and it can be increased to 500,000 at any time. If we negotiate peace now, I am afraid that Ping and Tianjin will
If we can't save it, it's better to fight again and negotiate for peace after annexing North China. By then we can get at least two provinces. This is extremely beneficial to our empire."
Japan's navy and army are eternal enemies. Marine Minister Mitsumasa Yoneuchi immediately said tit for tat, "I heard that your army's arsenal in Tianjin was bombed. I wonder if the army without ammunition can still fight with great momentum."
What about Hebei?”
Well, for a while, the two people started bullfighting again. Several other people persuaded and pulled, and the guards were so confused that they finally made a decision. The battle line must be controlled in Hebei, Shandong, Shanxi and other places.
Tokyo's order absolutely did not allow an attack. In order to obtain reinforcements and ammunition supplies, they continued to use the strategy of fake peace talks to paralyze Chiang Kai-shek and others and buy time for Japan.
This solution can also give an explanation to the peace faction headed by Ishihara and the emperor.
At the same time, we will continue to send additional troops to North China. These troops are: the Fifth Division (Itagaki Seishiro), the Sixth Division (Tani Hisao), and the Tenth Division (Nagaisotani Rensuke), which are under the command of the Commander-in-Chief of the Chinese Garrison Army.
Next. At this time, the total strength of the Japanese army in North China had reached 209,000, with 200 breech-loading artillery pieces and 171 tanks. Although the early ammunition depot was destroyed, the smoothness of the later operations made the Japanese military believe that as long as
The imperial army could move forward bravely without fear of sacrifice. No force in China could stop the Japanese army.
The Japanese army began to readjust its deployment and prepared to continue to expand its results. But will these army soldiers really act in accordance with the deployment of the military headquarters?
As for the news that Japan wanted to negotiate for peace, Chiang knew at a glance that this was just a delaying tactic, and instead accelerated the preparations for military preparations for war.
And Jiang Cheng returned to modern times from Yan'an. Jiang Cheng knew that the Republic of China was short of time, so he immediately drove to the company to prepare these things for Sun Ning.
When he arrived at the company, he was told that Sun Ning had gone out to negotiate. Jiang Cheng had no choice but to drive directly to the hotel where Sun Ning was negotiating. He ordered something to eat and waited for Sun Ning to come out of the conference room.
When Sun Ning came out, he couldn't help but frown when he saw Jiang Cheng, because this strange man had been staying in this company for nearly half a year, and the danger level facing him was getting lower and lower, but he ordered himself to die.
Staring at him, he didn't know when this mission would end.
Jiang Cheng saw Sun Ning, pointed to the bowl of noodles opposite him and said, "Eat, you probably haven't eaten, let's talk while eating."
Sun Ning nodded and took a bite and said, "Why are you so anxious?"
Jiang Cheng took out the USB flash drive and said, "Look, this is something our customers need newly. Also, how are the sales of our antiques going?"
Sun Ning took out his iPad and said, "Almost sold out? What's wrong?"
Jiang Cheng said, "Transfer 100 million to my account, I will use it."
When Sun Ning heard this, he suddenly realized that this was another piece of useful information.
Sun Ning pretended to be indifferent and nodded. When he saw the contents of the USB flash drive, it was not a detailed list this time, but a series of requirements. Especially when he saw the design of a set of plastic coins, he also asked for Guanghua vouchers to be engraved on them.
At that time, I just felt that Jiang Cheng was not planning to play Monopoly.
Sun Ning looked at the back. Most of them were industrial construction items, as well as trucks and pot machines.
Pot camel machine? This is an antique from many years ago.
Sun Ning couldn't help but ask, "Do you want this pot camel machine? Do you also need the design drawing? Isn't this too old? Is it still marketable now?"
Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "Uncle Black in Africa still needs it. All in all, you should prepare it as soon as possible, especially the electrical equipment is the top priority. In addition, I will prepare maintenance instructions for these things, preferably in the form of a CD."
Upon hearing this, Sun Ning felt that this was a good opportunity to find out who was behind Jiang Cheng. At worst, he could also know what language and race he spoke, so he asked, "What language do you want? If it's a small language, I want it."
Find talents in this field in advance.”
Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "It doesn't have to be so complicated, just use Chinese."
Sun Ning couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, knowing that it would not be that easy, and he was probably going to take it back and translate it himself.
Jiang Cheng continued, "There is also this truck. The road conditions at our customer's side are very poor. You have to consider this situation."
Sun Ning nodded and said, "No problem, these are not difficult. I will get it done as soon as possible."
After Jiang Cheng finished the arrangement, he called Lin Fei and asked Lin Fei to prepare the things in the warehouse as soon as possible.
After making the call, Jiang Cheng immediately drove to Chen Ce's military store.
As soon as he entered the military store, Jiang Cheng was almost frightened. He only saw a dozen dogs roaring at Jiang Cheng inside. Jiang Cheng shouted to Chen Ce inside, "Toilet paper, have you changed it to a pet hospital?"
"
Chen Ce came out with messy hair and said, "Damn it, I shouldn't have let you two know each other. Call me Chen Ce, or a doctor. Don't imitate that son of a bitch and bark randomly."
As he spoke, Chen Ce resisted the loving embrace of a husky and said, "I just recently met a girl who is a veterinarian. Isn't this about trying to create opportunities to meet her?"
Jiang Cheng looked at Leng Han and said, "You guys are really good at playing. I have something serious to do with you."
Upon hearing this, Chen Ce knew that it was probably not a public matter, so he waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about it inside."
After Jiang Cheng entered, he saw Chen Ce's kennel - it was really a kennel, a kennel for a bunch of dogs. He said, "I want to ask you to buy something."
Chen Ce asked, "What to buy? As usual, let's discuss it in writing."
Jiang Cheng helplessly wrote on his mobile phone, "I want to buy a bullet production line. Do you have any ideas?"
Chen Ce thought for a while and wrote, "This is very difficult. Making bullets is not easy. What is your foundation now?"
Jiang Cheng asked strangely, "What do you mean?"
Chen Ce continued to write, "It's very simple. Do you have enough materials? The requirements for bullet shells are very high. It takes more than thirty processes to go from a copper plate to a bullet. Especially for automatic weapons, it is very demanding for smelting, and then there is
Primers, this thing has stumped more than half of the countries in the world. In fact, bullets are not difficult to make. If you really want to, a skilled worker can easily make them, but there is a big difference between bullets and bullets.
Both accuracy and power can vary greatly, which is why top snipers have to make their own bullets. It is even more difficult to manufacture qualified bullets in large quantities."
Jiang Cheng scratched his head and thought about it. Since the Eighth Route Army could reload ammunition, there should be no problem with primers and warheads. He said, "I can solve primers and other issues, but cartridge cases are more difficult. And my requirements are very low? World War II level."
That’s all. Don’t worry about other things, just the production line.”
Chen Ce became more energetic after hearing this and said, "This difficulty is much easier. Forget it, it seems that you are well prepared. Tell me what standard you want, and I will try my best to let him get it for you."
Jiang Cheng continued, "I also want all the production drawings."
Chen Ce was suddenly in a dilemma: "This is more difficult, I'll try my best. What model do you want?"
Jiang Cheng replied, "Mauser's 7.92x57mm is enough. Let's get one first."
Chen Ce nodded and said, "This is really old. It would have been easier during World War II. I will try my best and contact Tianlin as soon as possible. Now this series can only be found in Yugoslavia. Once there is news, I will
Let me inform you. And let me tell you, the bullet production line is of great concern to all countries. If you buy the bullet production line, you will probably attract attention. Of course, we will help you block most of the pressure, but if there is anything
Don’t blame me if something goes wrong.”
Jiang Cheng expressed his understanding and left after chatting for a few words.
In the next three days, Jiang Cheng shipped the stockings and medicine to Germany and the United States respectively.
August 2, Republic of China time
When Jiang Cheng returned to modern times and turned on his phone, he found that there were already more than a dozen missed call records.
Although Jiang Cheng sounds busy, in modern times, he only gives a few instructions and then his subordinates go to work. However, he can only be idle, chatting with Gallagher and cooking for Yu Na, and is not busy at all.
Human feeling. Every time he comes to modern times, he feels like he is on vacation.
Jiang Cheng took a look and saw that they were all Sun Ning's. As soon as he called them, Sun Ning hung up immediately. Hey, I don't know what the young lady was losing her temper with, so she might as well go on her own.
