During the past two days of melee in Shanghai, the first person to figure out the truth was the military commander.
In fact, since the evening of two days ago, when the patrol battalion suddenly sent troops to attack the Sihang Warehouse, the military commander's spy line has been following up and monitoring all aspects. However, due to the inability to get close to the core of the battlefield, the undercover agents who broke into the patrol battalion and the Broadway Building
The level is really too low, so I still can’t figure out what’s going on.
For the senior commanders of the Songhu Military Division of the New Fourth Army, the battle situation is always under their control. However, in addition to the senior commanders of the Songhu Military Division, even the division commander of the Japanese Ninth Division, Yoshizumi Ryosuke, also
Yukage Zuozhenzhao, the actual person in charge of the Japanese spy agency, didn't even understand what was going on.
Therefore, for outsider spy organizations like Juntong, the truth is even more unclear.
A full seventy-two hours have passed since the battle started, but the people in the Shanghai District of Military Command still don't understand what's going on.
At this moment, Wang Tianmu was furious at the people in the operations department.
"A bunch of trash, aren't they usually quite capable? Now they are all wilted?"
"When fighting for funds, each one is more eloquent than the other, but when it comes to hiring people, one is shrinking faster than the other. Is there any use for the party and the state to spend so much money to support you?"
"You said you, there are more than a hundred people in the operations department, and you can't even figure out this little thing!"
"Believe it or not, I'm going to report to Boss Dai right now and have your operations department abolished? Trash!"
Several captains in the operations department were so punished by Wang Tianmu that they didn't even dare to say a word, but they couldn't help but feel dissatisfied. Just because this matter was not handled well, all our previous achievements were wiped out?
When Wang Tianmu was about to train again, deputy district chief Chen Gongshu walked in excitedly.
"District Chief, there's news!" Chen Gongshu reported excitedly as soon as he came in, "We've figured it out."
"Really? It seems that the Hurricanes still have a solution!" Wang Tianmu suddenly perked up after hearing this, and asked urgently, "Old Chen, please tell me what is going on?"
Several captains in the operations department also pricked up their ears.
Chen Gongshu breathed a sigh of relief and told the Hurricane team exactly what they had learned.
Wang Tianmu and several captains from the operations department were stunned when they heard this.
After a long while, Wang Tianmu finally came to his senses and said in a hissing voice: "Old Chen, you are saying that the Broadway Building deliberately detained more than 3,000 captured veterans in the Sixing Warehouse. It was originally intended to set a trap to deceive the patrol camp.
, but the result was that the patrol battalion took advantage of their scheme and was tricked in turn?"
Chen Gongshu said with a slight hum: "This time the Broadway Building was tricked by the patrol battalion. If it weren't for the Japanese Navy's action, it would have been completely wiped out by the patrol battalion in the Bund Park. But even if the Japanese Navy came to help, the Broadway Building would be completely destroyed by the patrol battalion."
This time, the vitality was severely damaged, more than 6,000 people died, and only 3,000 were left, more than half of them died."
After a pause, Chen Gongshu continued: "Moreover, it was not just the Broadway Building that was tricked. Even the little devils were tricked by the patrol battalion. Not to mention that the headquarters of the Ninth Division was destroyed, the old man Yoshizumi Ryosuke
The Japanese were also captured, and their humble position was unimaginable. How on earth was the battle in the patrol camp fought?"
"What did you say?" Wang Tianmu was so surprised that he became numb.
Chen Gongshu went on to say: "This is not over yet. The four infantry regiments of the Ninth Division are also divided and surrounded. Since the command system has been destroyed, the Seventh and Twentieth Divisions of the Little Devils are unable to attack.
It will take at least seven days to arrive at the battlefield in Shanghai in a short time. Central China sent the Condemned Army to urgently mobilize troops from nearby. Therefore, it is probably a high probability that the four Japanese infantry regiments will be wiped out. District Chief, you
Do you know what this means?"
"I know." Wang Tianmu took a deep breath, tried his best to suppress the shock in his chest, and said in a deep voice, "If the four infantry regiments of the Japanese Ninth Division are completely wiped out, it means that the entire Shanghai will
It completely fell under the control of the patrol camp, and even the entire concession was not spared."
After a pause, Wang Tianmu said in a deep voice: "This means that Shanghai will soon become the territory of the Communist Party! This also means that the Communist Party's guerrilla warfare will change its appearance. It will no longer fight guerrillas in the mountains and valleys, but will change its appearance.
To fight guerrillas in a big city like Shanghai, this is an earth-shattering event!"
Chen Gongshu said: "District Chief, this matter must be reported to the headquarters immediately."
"Yes." Wang Tianmu nodded heavily and said, "Report to the headquarters immediately."
(Dividing line)
The urgent report from the military commander was quickly delivered to Chairman Chiang Kai-shek's desk.
After hearing the news, Chairman Chiang was so angry that he yelled again: "Mother Xipi, the Communist Party wants to fight guerrillas in Shanghai?"
This news really made Chairman Chiang very angry and anxious. If the Communist Party really launched a guerrilla campaign in Shanghai, this would not be good news for the Nationalist Government, because Shanghai is the largest international metropolis in the Far East.
All countries have news agencies stationed in Shanghai, and any big issue like sesame seeds and mung beans can be reported in the newspapers immediately.
In other words, every move of the Communist Party in Shanghai will be amplified and interpreted by the Western media.
If it's a bad thing, it's nothing. But right now, it's a big deal that will make the Communist Party look bad. Once this matter is exposed internationally by Western media, the Communist Party will inevitably become famous. In the future, the Nationalist government will try to slander the Communist army again.
It is untenable to swim without attacking.
What makes Chairman Chiang even more worried is that the Nationalist Government mobilized nearly a hundred elite divisions to fight the Japanese army for nearly three months but still failed to hold Shanghai.
What is the level of a division of the Communist Party?
Thinking of this, Chairman Chiang turned around and asked He Yingqin: "Jesus, what is the level of a military division of the Communist Party?"
He Yingqin said: "The only formal establishments given to the Communist Party by the National Government were the Eighteenth Group Army and the New Fourth Army. The Eighteenth Group Army had three divisions and the New Fourth Army had four detachments. After the Communist troops dispersed into the battlefield behind enemy lines, they formed a large number of
military regions, these military regions should be at the same level as divisions and detachments."
Chairman Chiang frowned and said: "Does this mean that military divisions are at the regiment level?"
"Probably." He Yingqin nodded and said, "Theoretically, it is at the regiment level, but in fact, many military divisions of the Communist Party have already expanded to tens of thousands of people, which is more than one of our armies!"
"A regiment is a regiment!" Chairman Chiang snorted, "If we expand it to 100,000, it will still be a regiment!"
Since the Communist Party's troops penetrated deep into the battlefield behind enemy lines, they have expanded rapidly like a balloon. This has become a worry for Chairman Chiang Kai-shek. Correspondingly, the Kuomintang has also sent millions of troops into the battlefield behind enemy lines.
However, these troops either defected and surrendered to the enemy, or were annihilated by the Japanese and puppet troops.
So far, only the troops in the Sulu theater have managed to hold on.
So Chairman Chiang was very confused. Why was this? Why could the Communist Party's troops grow from scratch on the battlefield behind enemy lines, from small to large? But his troops could only grow from large to small, from nothing to nothing?
When he was confused, Chairman Chiang became very anxious. After being anxious, people will become manic.
At this time, Chairman Chiang was very manic.
Seeing that Chairman Chiang was angry, He Yingqin responded in a flurry of words.
However, Chairman Chiang quickly realized his lapse and calmed down.
After calming down, Chairman Chiang felt that something must be done. Otherwise, it won't be long before the whole world only knows that the Communist Party is resisting Japan, but not that the Kuomintang is resisting! But it is not possible to openly undermine it. Do this
Not only would it undermine the prestige of the Nationalist Government, but Chairman Chiang would not dare to do so.
Chairman Chiang Kai-shek did not forget that last time he ordered Ma Bufang to seize a batch of supplies, which immediately provoked thunderous retaliation from the Communist Party. In the end, the entire 32nd Army was even involved, and even the Dabie Mountains deep in the hinterland of Central China became a target.
The territory of the Communist Party was occupied, which is a strategically important location!
It is said that if a person has no long-term worries, he will have immediate worries.
Chairman Chiang has begun to worry about how big a threat the Communist Party's Dabie Mountain base will pose to Wuhan and Nanjing after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. The Communist Party has such a base near Nanjing, the capital of the Nationalist Government, and has such a large army stationed there.
, it was as if there was a tiger lying on the side of his bed!
Fortunately, the war of resistance will not be won immediately, and there is still room for maneuver in this matter.
However, this matter cannot be postponed and preparations must be started now.
The first urgent step is to pull out the thorn in Xu Rui’s flesh!
At that moment, Chairman Chiang said to Dai Li: "Yunong, when will your military commander be able to finish his work?"
The cold sweat on Dai Li's face fell down, and he said quickly: "The committee doesn't know something. Xu Rui is too cunning. The military hurricane team has been squatting at the gate of the patrol camp for three full months without finding an opportunity. The key is Xu Rui."
Rui's whereabouts are very secretive. Even if he is not at the patrol camp for a long time, even his closest confidants don't know where he is."
"I don't care about that," Chairman Chiang said angrily, "I just want the results! I just want the results!"
"Yes, yes." Dai Li nodded repeatedly while wiping off cold sweat, "I will find a solution immediately."
"Think of a way now, think of a way now, you've been doing this for three months already!" Chairman Jiang mocked unhappily, then turned to Bai Chongxi and asked, "Jiansheng, do you think Xu Rui can conquer Shanghai?"
"Absolutely impossible." Bai Chongxi categorically shook his head and said, "How could Xu Rui's troops occupy Shanghai? How can Shanghai be so easy to fight? Back then, Zhang Wenbai's group army fought for a month but failed to capture Shanghai. Xu Rui only had one
The regiment just wanted to capture Shanghai, which is simply wishful thinking."
Chairman Chiang felt a little relieved after hearing this.
