The Republic of Heroes

The Taicang West Garrison Headquarters was temporarily stationed. Wu Xiaoliang received a telegram from Li Zejun that the Ninth Division suddenly withdrew its troops and the behavior of shrinking the front line was extremely suspicious. An unexpected situation, or a trick of the Japanese army to lure the enemy?

No one can say this well, but it greatly affected Wu Xiaoliang's counterattack plan. It was originally expected to launch a general counterattack in Taicang three days later in order to get rid of the current deadlock and completely reverse the unfavorable situation for the Chinese army.But after such a sudden incident, there were two different voices within the Shandong Army. One group, headed by Yang Xiaoou and Li Zejun, advocated suspending the plan and watching the situation before making a decision. the vast majority.On the other side, only Wu Xiaoliang insisted on following the original plan and dispatching troops as usual.Because according to Wu Xiaoliang's judgment, based on the available information, the Japanese army did not have any new troops arriving in Shanghai, and the total strength of the Japanese army remained unchanged, so it would not have much impact on the counterattack on the Taicang battlefield.

A group of senior military officers in the war room were blushing. Song Xilian lifted the curtain and stepped in and out of the door.Yang Xiaoou took the initiative to grab Song Xilian and entered the room.

"Yin Guo came just in time, if you don't come, the roof of this house might be blown away!"

There was a burst of dry laughter, several senior staff officers and even Wu Xiaoliang were amused by Yang Xiaoou's pretentiousness, and it was really hard for him. In order to ease the atmosphere, it took less than ten seconds to make jokes from furious to smiling.

Song Xilian couldn't figure it out, he couldn't figure out what this group of people who had always been united and tight were arguing about, but he was the direct descendant of the chairman and belonged to an outsider here, so due to his status, he couldn't ask rashly .

Wu Xiaoliang couldn't see Song Xilian's embarrassment, so he took the initiative to say:

"The Ninth Division withdrew. The withdrawal was inexplicable and very weird. It affected our battle plan."

The reason why Song Xilian was highly regarded by everyone in the garrison headquarters was probably the result of Wu Xiaoliang's unreasonable courtesy. Otherwise, how could a little major general from an outside department get in the way of the Shandong Army?Song Xilian knew this well, he was the general of the defeated army, thanks to Wu Xiaoliang's care in many ways, he restored the establishment of the Central Teaching Group.The teaching regiment, named regiment, has actually surpassed a brigade in terms of establishment.

It's just that the teaching group has been in a situation where there is no battle to fight since the restoration of the organizational system. Because they are recruits, Wu Xiaoliang doesn't want to send them to the battlefield until it is absolutely necessary.Except for the one-sided massacre in which the Japanese army ambushed at Qiyakou, which was not considered a battle at all, there was never a decent tough battle at all.Song Xilian keenly realized that this was an excellent opportunity, and his expression was a little excited.

"Xilian's teaching group has nothing to do, why not follow the Ninth Division to find out the truth, I don't know what Mr. Wu wants?"

Wu Xiaoliang's eyes lit up. This might be a solution. If there is a trick to withdraw, once something happens to Shanghai, it will not be difficult to re-enter Shanghai with Song Xilian's teaching team and the remnants of Zhang Zhizhong who retreated to Taicang.

But Yang Xiaoou was a little worried.

"This plan is very clever. Brother Yin Guo's teaching group is mostly new recruits. Just do some investigation, don't go too deep."

"I think it can be fought. No matter how strong the Ninth Division's previous combat capabilities are, after days of battles, this time it is retreating. The morale is not as good as before. If you see the opportunity, you will deal with the Japanese invaders. , maybe there may be a turning point in Shanghai.”

Song Xilian was overjoyed. It seemed that the two highest-ranking members of the security headquarters agreed with him to conduct a fire investigation.He was so bored in the station that he just wanted to come here for combat missions. He had been sent back by Wu Xiaoliang several times before, but this time he didn't have any hope at first, but unexpectedly, things turned around like this.

"Since the two officers agree that Xi Lian's idea is feasible, Xi Lian will not waste time here, and promise to complete the assembly within an hour and dispatch troops within two hours!"

After all, without waiting for two people to answer, he strode out of the headquarters war room.

Song Xilian had already tidied up his gang of recruits, and was ready to enter the combat state at any time every day. He said that the troops were sent out within two hours, and they were filled with water. Can enter combat state.

Two hours were reserved for Wu Xiaoliang and the others to coordinate before the battle.

Wu Xiaoliang and Yang Xiaoou looked at each other, they really didn't expect Song Xilian to be in such a state, like a hungry wolf.After this episode, they simply stopped arguing and asked Song Xilian's people to find out the truth first.

In fact, the reason why the debate on whether to implement the combat plan as planned is that in the final analysis, the troops are stretched. At this critical moment, there is no way to spare a decent and reliable army to conduct fire reconnaissance.

Now, Song Xilian's self-recommendation has actually solved their big problem. What tricks the Japanese invaders have, presumably they will find out within three days.

"This Song Yinguo will be one of Lao Jiang's generals in time! It's a pity! It's a pity!"

Yang Xiaoou shook his head as if talking to himself.Wu Xiaoliang didn't take it seriously, he naturally understood the hidden meaning in Yang Xiaoou's words, in fact it was a pity that such a talent could not be used by me, but judging from the current situation, the melee between warlords might not last for a few years.It is not a little bit faster than his previous life for the Japanese to step up their war against China so frantically. This may objectively promote the temporary reconciliation of various factions across the country, so as to unify the outside world.At that time, as long as the Japanese devils are beaten, who is not fighting under their hands?

……

In a Western-style villa in the French Concession of Shanghai, the melodious sound of the piano tinkling came from the open window. A stone-paved path in front of the small building passed through a small piece of dark green grass and went straight to the gate with black-painted iron railings.It's just that untimely quarrels came from outside the gate, and gradually became louder and louder, disturbing the poetic and picturesque atmosphere.

The sound of the piano in the Western-style building stopped abruptly, and the door opened.A woman in a skirt came out to the door, and saw that Takahashi was arguing with a soldier in a corporal uniform, frowning slightly.

"Mr. Takahashi, let him in!"

The soldier came to the woman and bowed deeply as if he had been pardoned.

"Army corporal Kojiro Yamamoto was ordered by Feng Shuichuan to invite Miss Meiyu, you... are you Miss Meiyu?"
