cpa300_4; Seeing that there was no change in the contents of the telegram, Iinuma Mamoru had a strong desire to pinch himself. He wanted to confirm whether he was sleeping? It is said that dreams do not feel pain.
Yes, but his good upbringing allowed him to resist this impulse. After all, Iinuma Mamoru was from a noble family, and it was impossible for him to lose his composure in front of others.
"Tsukada-san." Commander Iinuma handed the telegram and the folder back to the major staff officer. He turned to Tsukada-san and said, "Do you think this is a joke played by Kobayashi-san on us?"
Xiao Linba is the section chief of the Shanghai Military Police Special Higher Education Course.
As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Mamoru Iinuma regretted them.
Because this is not what a group army chief of staff should say, it is too childish.
Sure enough, Tsukada Gong said very rudely: "Iinuma-san, please forgive me, Kobayashi-san probably can't and dare not joke about such a big thing, so I think the annihilation of the Shigeto detachment should be
it is true."
After saying that, Tsukada Kaoru and Iinuma Mamoru turned their eyes to Sugisu Yuan.
Shanshan Yuan remained silent, rationally telling him that the information provided by the Shanghai Special High School Course was absolutely true, because the Special High School Course made it very clear in the telegram that this was not top-secret information, but an intercepted clear code from the Chinese.
Since the temporary No. 79 Division dares to electrify the whole country clearly, it is enough to prove that this matter is not false.
But from a personal perspective, Shan Shanyuan is unwilling to believe that this is true.
There are classic examples of defeating tens of thousands of enemy troops with hundreds of elite troops. The Japanese army defeated tens of thousands of Northeastern troops with 128 cavalry and captured Chengde. This was not because of the strong combat effectiveness of the Japanese army, but because of the Chairman of Rehe Province.
Tang Yulin, who was also the commander of the Fifth Army Corps, took the lead in the escape, and the Chinese army was defeated thousands of miles away.
What's more, even the battle of Chengde was only a defeat, not a total annihilation!
However, now, the temporary 79th Division has actually annihilated the Chongteng detachment!
Therefore, even though he didn't say it out loud, Shan Shanyuan still had a trace of luck in his heart.
Perhaps, this was just a misunderstanding, and the telecommunications staff of the Special Higher Education Course translated the wrong code.
However, Shan Shan Yuan's luck was soon shattered by the cruel reality.
Another major staff officer came in with a folder in his arms. He bowed his head and saluted first, then opened the folder and handed the telegram inside to Shan Shanyuan. This telegram was from the Navy, saying that their Jiang Defense detachment was passing through Nantong.
Nearby, a seriously injured member of the Chongteng detachment was rescued from the river.
This seriously wounded man brought back terrible news: Chongteng detachment has been completely wiped out!
"It's true! It's actually true! It's actually true!" Shan Shanyuan whispered twice. Finally, he couldn't suppress the anger rising in his chest. It broke out all of a sudden, waving his fists at Tsukada and returning the attack.
Mamoru Iinuma roared loudly, "Shigeto, this idiot, this stupid pig! This stupid pig! This stupid pig!"
Mamoru Iinuma looked back at the direction of the grand banquet hall and whispered: "Your Excellency, Commander, please calm down, please be sure to calm down!"
"Calm down? I can't calm down, I can't calm down!" Shan Shan Yuan continued to roar regardless, "A whole detachment, nearly ten thousand people, nearly ten thousand people, actually allowed a few hundred people to be wiped out. He
What does he do for food? What does he do for food? What does he do for food?"
Iinuma Mamoru adjusted the glasses on the bridge of his nose and let Shan Shanyuan spit on his face without daring to wipe it, because he knew how angry Shan Shanyuan was feeling at the moment. The Battle of Nantong, but the Commander It was the first battle he directly commanded after taking office, but he got this result. Do you think he can be in a good mood?
It wasn't until Shanshan Yuan finished venting and sat down to catch his breath that Mamoru Iinuma asked in a low voice: "Your Excellency, Commander, do you want to continue today's dinner?"
Shan Shan Yuan's expression immediately froze.
Originally thinking that the Chongteng detachment could easily crush the remnants of the temporary 79th Division, Shan Shanyuan even couldn't wait to invite reporters from Western countries, thinking of announcing the news to the world at the welcome dinner, and using this to save the Imperial Army and the The reputation of the Japanese royal family is also used to claim credit from the base camp and the royal family.
But I never thought that I would expect such a result.
Now, dozens of Western reporters and hundreds of envoys and diplomats stationed in China are waiting in the grand banquet hall, waiting for him to announce the news. But can he still announce it now? Dare he announce it? He really wants to announce it at the welcome dinner The news that the Chongteng detachment was completely wiped out by the temporary 79th Division was announced, which was a slap in the face of the Japanese royal family!
At that time, what awaits Shan Shanyuan is not only dismissal, but also trial!
Thinking of this, Shanshan Yuanzhi wants to swallow everything he said before.
You said, what kind of welcome dinner should we have? Just have a welcome dinner, why bother thinking about making a splash and announcing any good news at the dinner? Well, now, there is no good news, but the bad news has come! Shan Sugimoto suddenly felt a sharp pain as if his head was exploding, and immediately staggered two steps.
"Your Excellency Commander!"
"Sir, are you okay?"
Tsukada Kaoru and Iinuma Mamoru quickly rushed forward to help Shanshan Yuan.
"It's okay, I'm fine." Shanshan Yuan shook his head, stretched out his hands to push Tsukada Gong and Iinuma Mamoru away, and said, "The dinner will continue, but I will no longer attend. You just say, I am a good person." I am tired and exhausted, so I will no longer accompany you guests to dine. You can attend on my behalf."
"Hai." Tsukada attacked and Iinuma defended.
(Dividing line)
In the banquet hall, hundreds of envoys to China and Japanese military officers were whispering.
The roar that came from the side hall just now was heard by many people. Selina and other reporters even tried to break through the obstruction of the military police and enter the side hall, but in the end they failed.
Cherev and Stilwell sat there, talking quietly while watching the reporters negotiating.
Suddenly, an officer wearing a Soviet uniform came over and whispered a few words in Cherev's ear. After hearing this, Cherev suddenly became energetic.
Stilwell raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is there any good news?"
Cherev signaled the officer to step back and said with a smile: "There is really good news."
"Oh, really?" Stilwell asked while cutting the steak, "But I don't know what kind of good news it is that makes you so happy?"
Cherev smiled and said, "What do you think?"
Stilwell smiled and said, "Can you give me some tips?"
Cherev said: "It has something to do with the Sino-Japanese War."
"Is it related to the Sino-Japanese War?" Stilwell put the steak cut into small pieces into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it. He picked up a napkin and wiped the corners of his mouth and said, "Could it be that the Nanjing defenders were fighting in the streets? He won the battle and took advantage of the victory to launch a counterattack, severely damaging or even annihilating a certain Japanese division?"
"How is this possible?" Cherev exclaimed strangely, "You are too imaginative."
After a pause, Cherev continued: "The fifty-nine most elite divisions of the Chinese army have been completely disabled on the Songhu battlefield. Most of the hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops now gathered in Nanjing were defeated on the Songhu battlefield." The defeated troops who came down were either new recruits who had just joined the army. Not to mention the lack of weapons and equipment, the soldiers were also extremely tired and had no combat effectiveness at all. How could they severely damage the establishment or even annihilate the Japanese divisions?"
"I think so too." Stilwell shrugged and said with regret, "In fact, even during the Battle of Songhu, even when the Chinese army was at its peak, it was not able to form an organized army. It was not possible to severely damage or annihilate the Japanese permanent divisions, or even to annihilate the Japanese brigade-level units in an organized manner."
Cherev said: "Guess again."
Stilwell said: "I can't guess what the good news is?"
Cherev said: "Just now, the temporary 79th Division was clearly powered on again. They won another battle in Nantong, and it was an unbelievable victory. They wiped out the Chongteng detachment in one fell swoop. Pay attention. Yes, it was a total annihilation! They also captured Shigeto Chiaki, the captain of the Shigeto detachment, and two regiment captains!"
Stilwell just took a sip of coffee, and when he heard these words, he immediately spurted out violently, almost hitting Cherev in the face. Fortunately, Cherev was a KGB agent and reacted quickly. At the critical moment, he turned his head to avoid him. , but there were still several drops of coffee on the dining table in front of him and on the woolen coat he was wearing.
Seeing Stilwell in such a state, the VIPs across from him and around him immediately looked at him sideways.
"Sorry, I'm really sorry." Stilwell quickly apologized to everyone, then pulled Cherev up and left the table.
Arriving on the balcony outside the grand banquet hall, Stilwell quickly took out his handkerchief and wiped the coffee stains on Cherev's coat.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." Cherev waved his hand magnanimously and said with a smile, "My old friend, I can completely understand your shock just now, so I won't blame you at all."
Stilwell then put away his handkerchief and asked Chelev in great shock: "My friend, you just said that the remnants of the temporary 79th Division annihilated the Shigeto detachment in Nantong? They also captured Shigeto Chiaki and his men. Two captains?"
"That's right." Cherev added, "The remnants of the temporary 79th Division annihilated the Shigeto detachment in Nantong. Even the detachment leader Shigeto Chiaki and his two regiment captains became prisoners of the Chinese!"
When Stilwell heard this, his eyes immediately widened and his mouth opened wide.
"Oh my God, my God!" Stilwell murmured in his sleep, "Is this true? Is this true?"
Cherev shrugged and said: "I don't think the temporary 79th Division will fake this kind of thing, because even if they do it, it will be easily exposed by the Japanese army, right?"
Cherev was a KGB agent, and his intuition told him that the news was true.
But precisely because the news was true, Cherev was particularly shocked.
