At this time in Chongqing, Chiang Kai-shek was happily responding to various reporters.
"Chairman, first of all, has Wuhan really been recovered?" A middle-aged reporter with eyes stood up and asked Chiang Kai-shek.
Lao Jiang nodded, "Yes, Wuhan was officially restored at 5:43 this morning."
"So, Chairman, what's the battle loss ratio?"
Lao Jiang shook his head, "The specific battle loss ratio has not been released yet, but most of the Japanese in Wuhan should have been annihilated, and some were captured. Okay, next one."
"Chairman, what is the specific process of recovering Wuhan this time?"
"In this battle to regain Wuhan, we dispatched a total of more than 600,000 troops, and the Japanese army had a total of more than 300,000 troops." Lao Jiang thought for a moment, and then said, "Among them, the troops of the Fifth Theater Division launched an attack from the west of Wuhan, and the New Fourth Army
The attack was launched from the north of Wuhan, and the independent division launched an attack from the southeast of Wuhan. This battle lasted for 15 days and recovered the front lines of Wuhan, Hong'an, Huangshi, Ezhou, and Huanggang. It can be said to be of great significance to the history of the Anti-Japanese War of the Chinese nation.
A victory. This shows that we, the Republic of China, are by no means unable to defeat the Japanese. As long as we are willing to fight, we will definitely be able to defeat the Japanese and take back our territory!"
"However, after this war, the relevant troops were severely depleted. Therefore, here, I welcome the majority of young people to sign up to join the army and do their part for the recovery of the country."
"Chairman, which army broke into Wuhan first?" A female reporter stood up and asked Chiang Kai-shek.
"It's an independent division led by General Zhou Weiguo." Lao Jiang replied with a smile. Although he had a grudge against Zhou Weiguo, he was still very satisfied with Zhou Weiguo's performance. Undoubtedly, Jiang Zhongzheng was the biggest winner in the recovery of Wuhan this time.
.This shows that under his leadership, the Chinese army can win the war. Different from the previous fights and retreats, this time, he is really satisfied.
As soon as Chiang Kai-shek's words came out, the scene became noisy.
"Okay, next one." Lao Jiang said with a smile.
"Chairman, when will the specific situation of this battle be released?"
"Tomorrow," Lao Jiang replied, "a brief process of the battle, specific battle loss ratio, etc."
"Chairman, which city do you plan to take back next?"
"This depends on the specific situation. In this battle, each unit suffered heavy damage and needs a certain amount of time to recover. Although we can defeat the Japanese, we cannot rush this matter."
…
October 26, 3 pm, Wuhan.
"You are finally back!" Fang Shengli looked at Zhou Weiguo in front of him and breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was relieved about Zhou Weiguo, it did not mean that he was not worried.
"Yeah." Zhou Weiguo nodded, "Okamura is in the car." The way back was relatively simple. Zhou Weiguo took a car from the system warehouse and drove back slowly.
"Here, are you really captured?" Fang Shengli didn't quite believe it. Then he got into the carriage and saw Neji Okamura lying on his back, and then asked, "Do you want treatment?"
Zhou Weiguo nodded, "Take him to treatment. As long as he doesn't die, that'll be fine."
"Okay." Fang Shengli nodded, and then ordered the soldiers to take Okamura Neji to the hospital.
As a big city, Wuhan has all the facilities. As the commander here, Okamura Neiji knows the place well. He knows that Fang Shengli will take him to the hospital, and he will hope to be taken to their field army
The hospital. There, he may still have a chance, because he believes that the military doctors of the Japanese Empire should still be alive. After all, both China and Japan will protect these medical talents during wartime.
"Brother Weiguo!" Zhang Zizhong heard that Zhou Weiguo was back and came over quickly. When he saw Zhou Weiguo, he shouted from a distance.
"Brother Xin Chen!" Zhou Weiguo was overjoyed when he saw it was Zhang Zizhong. After all, he was relatively familiar with Zhang Zizhong.
"Great, you're okay!" Zhang Zizhong patted Zhou Weiguo on the shoulder and laughed. Then, he introduced the three people behind him to Zhou Weiguo and said, "These are the leaders of the main regiment of the New Fourth Army.
They made a vigorous effort in this attack in the north."
"Hello!" Zhou Weiguo saluted several people, "Independent Division Zhou Weiguo."
"Li Chang, the New Regiment of the Fourth Detachment of the New Fourth Army of the National Revolutionary Army."
"Kong Jie, the new second regiment of the fourth detachment of the new fourth army of the National Revolutionary Army."
"Ding Wei, the New Third Regiment of the Fourth Detachment of the New Fourth Army of the National Revolutionary Army."
The three of them also returned the gift to Zhou Weiguo.
"I heard from Deputy Commander Fang that Commander Zhou went after the Japanese. I wonder if he caught them?" Li Chang asked first. He was still very concerned about the outcome of the battle.
Zhou Weiguo smiled and nodded, "We caught him. Okamura Neji has been sent to the hospital for treatment by Shengli."
"Alive?" Several people present asked in surprise.
"Yeah." Zhou Weiguo nodded still smiling.
"That's great!" Kong Jie clapped his hands, "The living is more valuable than the dead! What's more, the old Japanese man Okamura is a high-ranking member of the Japanese army and has been in Wuhan for a year. The information in his mind is so valuable.
."
"That's right! Mr. Zhou, you have really made a great contribution!" Ding Wei said enviously. If he catches Okamura Neji, he can brag about this for a year, no, even for a lifetime.
Zhou Weiguo smiled. These three people are very interesting. Although they are the New Fourth Army, they do not exclude the Kuomintang army like other Communist armies. This shows that the three people are very tolerant and stand firmly on the anti-Japanese national united front.
of.
"By the way, how is the follow-up situation in Wuhan?" Zhou Weiguo asked and looked at Zhang Zizhong.
Zhang Zizhong sighed and said, "The two parties will jointly send people to manage and guard it. After all, both parties have made great efforts this time."
"That's right, I would like to thank Master Zhou for his help this time and Deputy Commander Fang for his firm support!" Li Chang laughed. He couldn't decide on high-level matters, but this decision was obviously in their favor.
, if it were not for the support of the independent division, their commander-in-chief would obviously be at a disadvantage, so he had a good impression of the independent division, "Mr. Zhou, this time I, Lao Li, have hidden a bottle of good wine. I wonder when you will be free.
, I’ll buy you a drink!”
Zhou Weiguo laughed. This Li Chang is interesting. If you invite him to drink, aren't you afraid of being punished?
Li Chang, on the other hand, had his own little plan to build a good relationship with Zhou Weiguo and asked Zhou Weiguo to help train special operations troops! He had been coveting it for a long time!
"Okay, tomorrow night. I'm very tired today and have to go to sleep." Zhou Weiguo spread his hands helplessly, and then apologized to a few people, "I'm really sorry, I can't get together with everyone tonight. Wait until I rest.
Okay, I’ll be the host!”
"Hey, Mr. Zhou, you're too polite. Go and have a rest!"
