When Fang Shengli watched the remaining more than 100 Japanese troops running away, he did not pursue them. For him, it was enough to eliminate the effective strength of the Japanese troops.
"Clean the battlefield and let the brothers rest! Bury the pot and cook!"
"yes!"
A day of tiring and fierce fighting had exhausted the physical strength of the soldiers.

Wuhan
"Nani? Baga!" After receiving the telegram from the front line, he learned that not only the air force suffered huge losses, but even the two wings in the Dahongshan area were basically completely lost. Neji Okamura's expression was quite exciting. He did not expect that,
The recent series of news are not so good. Takeshita Jun's life or death is uncertain, and the Suizhou offensive failed again.
"Your Majesty Commander, what should we do?"
"What should I do? What else can I do now? Come on, tell me what to do?" Neji Okamura was furious. At this time, the staff officer actually asked him such a question. He felt that he was drunk.
"Smithson." Seeing Okamura Neji getting angry, the Japanese commander immediately apologized.
Okamura Neiji took a deep breath, and then calmed himself down. He also knew that his state was a taboo for a general, "Order, 3rd Division, 13th Division, 29th Brigade,
Take Suizhou at all costs!"
"Hi!"
The current plan is to capture Suizhou to make all other losses worthwhile.

Fifth Theater Command
Li Zongren took the telegram, looked at the map, frowned, and said, "The little devil is crazy. He wants to capture Suizhou at any cost."
"Yes, the two Japs regiments over at Dahongshan have been crippled. The independent division and the air force have also been dispatched. Indeed, it's amazing." Bai Chongxi continued, "At this time, if Okamura Neji doesn't put all his efforts into action,
Then he really doesn’t have to fight this battle.”
"I don't know if Tang Enbo's 31st Group Army can be stabilized." Li Zongren said. At this time, Tang Enbo's 31st Group Army was facing the Japanese at the front line. Some time ago, due to the need for support, the 31st Group Army had also been
The defense was moved to the front line of Suizhou County.
"Don't worry, their equipment is much better than ours." Bai Chongxi raised his eyebrows.
"Hey." Li Zongren sighed, "I'm afraid the Japanese will go crazy, but they won't be able to withstand it."
"That's true." Bai Chongxi touched his chin and said immediately, "The person who brought troops from the Independent Division to support us should be their deputy division commander and first brigade commander, let's call him Fang Shengli."
"It seems to be that name."
"Really, the independent division only knows Zhou Weiguo." Bai Chongxi said with a smile, "Since the Japs on the Dahong Mountain side have been dealt with, can we let them move to the rear of the Japs and give them a surprise?"
"You, they only have one regiment." Li Zongren pointed at Bai Chongxi and said, "Now the Japanese have two divisions and one brigade, with 70,000 to 80,000 people there. You point to him that one regiment can defeat 70,000 to 80,000 people.
ah."
"No, no, no, it's just a harassment from the rear." Bai Chongxi said, "It can also reduce the pressure on the 31st Group Army."
"That's okay." Li Zongren said, "Let's send a telegram to Nanchang to let them know about the transfer."
"good."
…
In the early morning of May 21, 1939, Fang Shengli led his people towards Suizhou.
"Brigade, the telegram said that we are required to carry out an attack behind the Japanese." Lei Dingtian frowned, "But the Japanese have two divisions and a brigade over there."
"So we are just harassing." Fang Shengli said with a smile, "The so-called harassment, as long as you have a disruptive effect, that's it."
"But, this is still a bit risky for us." Lei Dingtian said, "After all, the gap in military strength is quite big."
"No, for the Japs, what they have to do now is to capture Suizhou County. Otherwise, the Japs' losses will be in vain." Fang Shengli replied, "So, after knowing that we are just a small force,
, the Japanese won’t take it too seriously unless we cause them too much harm.”
"That seems to be the case." Lei Dingtian nodded and agreed with Fang Shengli's words. The fact is that this is indeed the case.
"So, don't worry too much." Fang Shengli said, "The Japs are already a little weak in the follow-up, unless the Japs continue to mobilize troops."
"If the Japanese want to mobilize their troops, they can only do so from the direction of Hefei," Lei Dingtian said.
"Yes, but in fact, there are not many troops in Hefei." Fang Shengli said with a smile, "Now on the Chinese battlefield, the Japanese already have 1 million troops, not counting the previous battle losses. If the battle losses are included
, the Japanese have mobilized more than 1 million troops. Although this number is not large, the social composition of the Japanese is somewhat special. After the Meiji Restoration, the Japanese strongly encouraged production. Women can have children at the age of 13, and you
If you can't raise your children, the country will help you raise them. This is why Japan now has a population of 70 million. But in fact, most of these people are civilians, not nobles. You said that most of those who go to the battlefield are
It is the aristocrats who benefit from the civilians. What do you want the civilians to think? There is anti-war sentiment in Japan, but at the same time, they have been seriously brainwashed by the so-called emperor." Fang Shengli shook his head, "This nation is ungrateful and will never be grateful.
He has unsatisfied desires."
After Fang Shengli finished speaking, Lei Dingtian was silent for a while and said, "Our war of resistance still has a long way to go. We must beat the Japanese until they are afraid, and we must strengthen the country so that the world will not dare to despise us.
That’s all.”
Fang Shengli patted Lei Dingtian on the shoulder and knew that Lei Dingtian also came back from the United States. Discrimination against China is very common abroad, not to mention that China is too weak now.

Shanghai, Central China Expeditionary Force Headquarters.
"Your Excellency, Commander, Wuhan has once again requested the deployment of troops."
"I understand. Several divisions were formed from the mainland a few days ago, and they arrived in Shanghai yesterday."
"Your Excellency, Commander?"
"Let's send all these divisions to Wuhan. The Chinese are unwilling to sign the armistice agreement and refuse to allow Zhou Weiguo to attend. As a result, we have no chance. Then we must beat them until they are afraid and then beat them until they are willing to sign.
Fight until Zhou Weiguo is willing to come forward!"
"Hi!"
…
Wuhan
"Yo Xi!" Okamura Neiji looked at the reply and finally felt a lot more at ease. He said, "Order the front line to suspend the offensive and wait for reinforcements to arrive before attacking one by one."
"Hi!"
…
Shanghai, a teahouse.
"Matsushita-kun, are you here again?"
"Yo Xi, a nice pot of tea."
"Hi!"
…
a bookstore
"What, the Japanese are going to send more troops to Wuhan again?"
"Well, I just got the information. There are 5 divisions."
"so much?"
"Well, it was just formed from the Japanese country. It arrived in Shanghai yesterday."
"The devils are forcing us to continue fighting them."
"No matter so much, let's send the information back first so that the soldiers on the front line can be prepared."
