Zhang Zhizhong gave an order and the whole country was clearly telegraphed.
Except for a few remote areas such as Tibet and Xinjiang and the northeastern region of Manchuria and Mongolia that had long been occupied, almost the entire land of China received broadcasts from news media from all over the country. That afternoon, college students in major cities such as Nanjing, Wuhan, Changsha, Chongqing, and Guangzhou, as well as
A large number of enthusiastic young people took to the streets and held a huge demonstration.
This time, the military and police in major cities are no longer as ready as before, as if they are facing a powerful enemy!
In fact, many military and police officers spontaneously joined the huge demonstration. Since the September 18th Incident last year, when the three northeastern provinces were occupied, the Chinese nation has been suppressed for too long. A regiment of 5,000 people was surrounded and annihilated, and a small major general, Chief of Staff,
It's not even a tactical-level goal, but the entire Chinese nation still went crazy because of this victory at the tactical level.
? Tens of thousands of enthusiastic young people put down their textbooks and enthusiastically signed up to join the army. The recruitment offices in major cities were almost overcrowded!
Many wealthy businessmen in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai also donated money and materials, and organized large and small condolence groups to rush to the frontline workers. Even Jianghu forces such as the Green Gang and the Red Gang secretly organized porter transport teams to help various social groups transport to the Songhu frontline.
Condolences and military supplies, for a time, the battlefield in Songhu was really turbulent.
Nanjing, in the official residence of the leader.
"Nang Xipi, what does Zhang Wenbai want to do?" Following a roar, the next thing was the sound of porcelain hitting the ground.
The instigator who pointed at the remnants on the ground and became furious was none other than China's current supreme leader, President Chiang Kai-shek.
Principal Jiang probably didn't expect that his mood would be so ups and downs. The good mood he had just felt due to the victory of the frontline troops was completely destroyed by a telegram that he received a minute ago, clearly telegraphing the whole country.
.
Since the outbreak of the Songhu Anti-Japanese War on "128", Principal Jiang's heartstrings have not relaxed much.
Although there were elements of being coerced by the will of the people and the patriotic generals who wrote letters to lead the war, Principal Jiang, who had just been out of office and came back again, had great hopes for the Songhu Anti-Japanese War. It is no exaggeration to say that the scale of this war
The outcome of a minor local conflict is not only related to the face of the country and the dignity of the nation, but also to Chiang Kai-shek's future status within the party.
Being out of office for the second time since 1927 gave Principal Jiang a deeper understanding of the energy of the veteran seniors within the Kuomintang. If he cannot prove the ability of his troops with a victory, I am afraid that what will follow is
The third time, or whether there was a fourth time, considering the political opponents who were eyeing the leadership of his country, Principal Jiang did not feel that he still had such a chance.
Since this battle is going to be fought, we can only win, not lose.
In order to win the Songhu Anti-Japanese War, Principal Chiang even spent a lot of money to merge his two major imperial divisions, the 87th Division, the 88th Division, and the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps into the Fifth Army and handed them over to Zhang Zhizhong and Zhang Wenbai, whom he trusted greatly. This also shows that Jiang
The principal's determination is firm.
Half an hour ago, Zhang Zhizhong annihilated a regiment of Japanese invaders, killing Major General Jiro Sakata, Chief of Staff of the 5th Division, and Lin Daba, Captain of the 7th Regiment. Principal Jiang was so excited that he could not help himself.
Principal Jiang knew very well that this war was basically over now. Japan, which was still in confrontation with the Soviet Union, could not attack the whole country just because of one Shanghai or one regiment. The elephant China was,
It's not something their small island country can even afford.
It must be said that as a not-so-excellent military strategist, but politically, Principal Jiang is definitely outstanding and has basically eliminated the weakness of the Japanese base camp.
Zhang Zhizhong has meritorious service and great merit. Principal Jiang just gave Zhang Zhizhong a definition in his mind.
As for the commando team of the 19th Route Army that took over the Japanese aggressor regiment headquarters mentioned in the telegram later by Zhang Zhizhong, President Jiang naturally ignored it. If it was from the Central Army, President Jiang would naturally not hesitate to praise it, but the 10
Ninth Route Army, let's forget it.
Principal Jiang deliberately postponed the support of the Fifth Army for a few days, not because he wanted the 19th Route Army to defeat them all! If public dissatisfaction had not boiled over, this would have been the time when the Fifth Army would have set off for the front line.
day.
But the good mood is always so short-lived. When he heard Zhang Zhizhong's telegram that clearly informed the whole country of the victory, Principal Jiang couldn't help but became furious.
There is no precedent for frontline commanders to inform the whole country about the victory. This can be used to encourage people and boost morale. But what does it mean to specifically put the commando team of the 19th Route Army in the telegram?
This clearly means to cook raw rice into cooked rice! This is what makes Principal Jiang the most angry.
"Shihe, tell me, did Zhang Wenbai win a battle and you don't know his last name?" Principal Jiang walked back and forth a few steps and looked at his captain of the bodyguard with a serious look.
Wang Shihe, as a graduate of the first class of Huangpu, was from the same hometown as Principal Jiang, and had won the trust of Principal Jiang. At this moment, he didn't know that the principal who hated students most for betraying him had murderous intentions, and he couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart.
Zhang Wenbai! Zhang Wenbai, are you just kidding? How dare you praise a member of the 19th Route Army in spite of the world's disapproval. Considering that he and Zhang Zhizhong were classmates in Huangpu, Wang Shihe felt uneasy, but
Still brazenly replied: "Principal, I think we should first investigate what the 19th Route Army team did? Otherwise, Wen Bai would definitely not do this."
"Well" Principal Jiang heard this, thought for a while, waved his hand and said: "Okay, Shihe, you go to the Secret Investigation Team of the Military Commission and ask them to cooperate with you. I want to see everyone's information on this so-called commando team."
Wang Shihe took the order and went.
The so-called Secret Investigation Team of the Military Commission was the predecessor of the later famous "Bureau of Investigation and Statistics of the Military Commission", which was also referred to as Juntong. As the largest, most efficient, and most advanced intelligence agency in telecommunications deciphering technology in Asia during World War II, the Secret Investigation Team
The efficiency is extremely high.
All the information was quickly placed in front of Principal Jiang.
"Have you verified the results clearly?" Principal Jiang asked with a solemn expression after carefully reading the information in his hand.
Wang Shihe felt reassured when he saw the old man's face. He nodded and said, "This material was signed and reported by three intelligence officers from the Secret Investigation Division. It is absolutely true." He hesitated and then added: "I heard that Wen Bai
After seeing the battlefield, he burst into tears."
"Hmph, please don't put in a good word for Zhang Wenbai." Principal Jiang snorted coldly, indicating that he already understood what his confidant was thinking about Xiao Jiujiu.
Seeing that his lieutenant general's bodyguard was covered in cold sweat and his face was slightly pale, he said in a low voice: "Okay, for the sake of the soldiers working together to defeat the Japanese invaders, this matter is over."
"But what happened to the leader Liu Lang?" Principal Jiang casually opened Liu Lang's resume and suddenly frowned.
Wang Shihe, who had just let go of his heart, was secretly complaining again.
The principal asked him about this, who was he going to ask?
