The young pilots were very lucky. After only waiting for half a month, the aircraft Zhou Hexuan purchased last time (the second batch) were delivered. At the same time, 16 SB bombers from the Soviet Union to aid China arrived.
Time passed in December, and the Japanese planes suddenly stopped after carrying out multiple retaliatory bombings on Chengdu.
This is not because the enemy has become merciful, but because the air force athletes in Chengdu fought hard to stop it. Although Chengdu Airport was bombed badly, the Japanese army also paid the price of nearly 20 aircraft. The results of previous air battles are: Chengdu pilots and
The fighter planes were exhausted, and the strength of the Japanese air force in Wuhan was reduced by one-fifth.
Nearly half of the young pilots assigned to Chongqing were urgently transferred to Chengdu for garrison before they even had time to touch the aircraft.
As the Japanese air force in Wuhan was licking its wounds, major cities in Sichuan suffered only two air raids throughout December. Chongqing was often foggy in winter, and the Japanese spies who could send telegrams were intercepted by the military commander, so from December
During the Lunar New Year period, the people of Chongqing enjoyed a rare peace and did not even encounter a single bombing.
Over in Guangxi, the "Battle of Southern Guangxi" was in full swing, with Bai Chongxi serving as commander-in-chief and Chen Cheng serving as supervisor.
There is a saying that "Kill the Japanese troops to eliminate the enemy, and kill the friendly troops to eliminate the internal enemy." During the Anti-Japanese War, Chang Kaishen always consciously consumed the miscellaneous troops. This time he encountered Bai Chongxi, who was "one foot taller than the other". He openly avoided
Chen Cheng, the supervising army, was used to let the Guangxi troops fight on the sidelines from beginning to end, and mobilized Du Yuming's Fifth Army and other miscellaneous armies to fight against the Japanese invaders.
The "Victory of Kunlun Pass" made Du Yuming famous in his first battle with the Fifth Army. He killed the Japanese brigade commander Masao Nakamura, killed more than 4,000 enemies, and captured more than 100 people. But Chiang Kai-shek was bleeding in his heart. The Fifth Army was not only a direct descendant of the Central Army
, and was China's first mechanized force. This battle resulted in more than 15,000 casualties.
Chang Kaishen felt that he had been cheated by Bai Chongxi, and he still had to talk about hardships. Bai Chongxi had just commanded a great victory, so it was impossible to punish him. Not only could he not be punished, he must also be commended. Chiang Kai-shek was so suffocated that he wanted to vomit blood.
At the end of 1939, there were very few fierce battles like the "Battle of Southern Guangxi". The Japanese troops on other fronts stopped large-scale operations, and the "stalemate situation" became more and more obvious. The Kuomintang, finally able to take a breath, quickly launched the Anti-Japanese War.
The first anti-communist climax during this period.
On December 1, Yan Xishan instigated the "Xinxi Incident" and deployed almost all his military power to suddenly attack the Shanxi New Army.
Although the Shanxi New Army is a team formed by the Communist Party, it belongs to the Shanxi-Sui Army designation sequence. This was approved by Yan Xishan in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War. Now Yan Xishan not only turns his guns to attack the Shanxi New Army, but also fights with the Japanese and puppet troops
Collusion led to the absurd and bizarre incident of the Jinsui Army (old army) and the Japanese and puppet troops attacking the Jinsui Army (new army).
On December 4, the Kuomintang once again created the "Longdong Incident" and took the initiative to launch an attack on the Eighth Route Army. The Eighth Route Army did not hesitate and drove away the Heshui and Qingyang County governments under the Kuomintang rule.
On December 20, the Kuomintang ordered the implementation of the "Measures for Handling Communist Party Issues," which explicitly restricted the development of the Communist Party from three aspects: the party, government, and military.
At this time, Wu Peifu died, the whole country mourned, and both the Kuomintang and the Communist Party spoke highly of him.
According to the Japanese invaders' intention, they wanted Wu Peifu and Tang Shaoyi to form a puppet government.
Tang Shaoyi was more unlucky. His son-in-law (Cen Deguang) had already surrendered to the enemy, and he personally took Doihara Kenji to persuade Tang Shaoyi to be a traitor. Before Tang Shaoyi showed his attitude, and even without even seeing Doihara Kenji, the news was discovered by military intelligence agents.
, but was assassinated and died by Dai Li's men.
The elders of the Kuomintang were very dissatisfied with this because Tang Shaoyi had not surrendered to the enemy yet. Who could tell whether he was loyal or traitorous?
As a last resort, Chang Kaishen could only declare to the outside world that Tang Shaoyi was assassinated by the Japanese invaders because he refused to be a traitor. The Kuomintang also specially issued a "commendation order" and 5,000 yuan for funeral expenses to Tang Shaoyi.
Wu Peifu's death was much more bizarre. He was probably killed by the Japanese invaders. He refused the Japanese invaders' attempts to win over him many times. When his dental disease recurred, a Japanese dentist suddenly came to visit him and accidentally killed Wu Peifu on the spot.
Died by doctors.
The most ridiculous thing is that after Wu Peifu's death, not only the Kuomintang and the Communist Party unanimously praised him, but the Japanese invaders also commended him. The supreme commander of the Japanese invasion of China personally attended Wu Peifu's public memorial ceremony, and the cities and counties in the occupied areas of North China lowered flags at half-mast for three consecutive days in mourning.
He uses his reputation to win over people (Han).
…
The pictorials co-organized by Zhou Hexuan and Feng Yuxiang quickly became popular. Whether it was "Captain of China" or "San Mao's Army", they were widely sought after by readers.
In terms of word-of-mouth reputation, "Sanmao's Army" has a higher rating and is liked by both intellectuals and ordinary people.
But "Captain China" caused an even greater sensation. No one had ever seen this type of superhero comic before. What is a genetic agent? Except for a few biology students, no one knows about it. But it does not affect its popularity at all.
I love it. People are fed up with the Japanese invasion and can see Chinese heroes beating up little Japanese in comics. This is also a kind of spiritual sustenance and emotional outlet.
Although many literati have criticized "Captain China" for its lack of content and reflecting an escapist mentality that is divorced from reality, people just like to watch it. Even children in schools play games, all vying to play the role of "Tiger King" Zheng Xiaofei, which is particularly unlucky.
The students can only play Dr. Aihara and get beaten.
The general content of the fourth episode of "Captain China" is that Zheng Xiaofei took out the laboratory and was taken in by a farmer in the suburbs of Peking. The beautiful village girl also developed a love for Zheng Xiaofei.
Just when the reader thought that the village girl was the heroine, the Japanese army entered the village with puppet troops. They came to the countryside to collect food. The village girl was attracted by a Japanese soldier and was brutally killed because of her resistance. She went to the city to inquire about the enemy's situation.
Zheng Xiao flew back to the village and happened to witness this tragic incident.
Zheng Xiaofei broke out. He transformed into a human tiger, killed all the Japanese devils and puppet army leaders, and forced the remaining puppet soldiers to surrender to the anti-Japanese forces.
With one against a thousand, he can still win completely, making readers excited and wishing that there really is a "Tiger King" Zheng Xiaofei in reality.
The fifth episode was even more powerful. Zheng Xiaofei rushed directly into the headquarters of the North China Expeditionary Army. Since the commander of the North China Expeditionary Army, Juichi Terauchi, happened to be away, he could only kill a few Japanese staff officers and meet Dr. Aihara again after hearing the news.
There was a fierce battle. Both of them were injured. Zheng Xiaofei was wounded all the way and killed more than 3,000 people in the encirclement.
Zheng Xiaofei desperately fled to Xiangshan and came to a broken Taoist temple. There was a young Taoist priest in the Taoist temple who was giving his master a farewell ceremony. The two fought against each other due to a misunderstanding. This young Taoist priest actually knew the orthodox Taoist methods. His realm improved only because of the difficulty of practicing in the age of Dharma.
slow.
They didn't know each other before fighting, so they agreed to go down the mountain to kill the Japanese together, and Li Tonglin, the number two super anti-Japanese hero, the "Sword Immortal", returned to his position.
In the sixth episode, when Zheng Xiaofei and Li Tonglin were assassinating senior Japanese military officials, they undoubtedly encountered Dr. Aihara mass-producing Japanese super soldiers. The two sneaked in secretly, successfully destroyed each other's conspiracy, and completely destroyed the genetic medicine information and finished products, but there were still two
A Japanese super soldier was successfully created.
Before New Year's Day in 1940, this was the serial content of "Captain of China". It was so popular that some old scholars in Wanqing were waiting to catch up with it every day. These comics gradually spread to various war zones and were circulated by frontline soldiers, so that
When some troops asked for supplies, they specifically requested several copies of the illustrated magazine "Captain China".
Wanrong, who was already a university lecturer, couldn't draw it at all, so Zhou Hexuan had to recruit two more young cartoonists to create an assembly line according to the plot he gave.
