The Red War God of Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 148 Title: National War Hero

(This story is purely fictitious, please do not imitate!)

1937年7月10日，早晨6点30分，南京。

Generalissimo Jiang had good personal living habits in his life, and he always insisted on going to bed early and getting up early.He usually gets up at 6 o'clock. When the conditions are good, he goes to the nearby area to exercise, and when the conditions are not good, he moves around in the yard where he lives.

At 6:30, it is time for the chairman to finish his exercise and prepare to wash up.

"Report to the chairman, Pingjin urgent call..." Wang Shihe reported standing at the door.

"Why are you in such a hurry, didn't you see that I was washing my face?" Chiang Kai-shek still washed his face in a leisurely manner, then walked to the mirror and looked at the complexion on his face. When he felt that there was no problem, he stepped out, "What? thing?"

"Mr. He, Mr. Gu, Mr. Chen, and Mr. Zhang Zhizhong are all waiting for you in the conference hall." Wang Shihe said.

"Oh, are they all here?" Chiang Kai-shek asked casually, and went straight to the meeting hall without further delay.

"Committee, the Japanese have already started working in the Pingjin area!" Apart from Generalissimo Jiang, He Yingqin is the highest-ranking official among them, so it is natural for him to report, "In Tianjin, the 5th Brigade of the 9th Division of the Japanese Army Tuan Guozaki Dengbu launched an attack on our Tanggu garrison; the 21st Brigade's Miura Toshiji Division led its troops to attack our 38th Division in Tianjin; Department and the 20th Division; in Zhangjiakou, the Kwantung Army's independent 29st mixed brigade Sakai Hao Division is launching an attack on Liu Ruming's Department of our 37rd Division..."

"Report to the committee, Dai Li asks to see you!" As soon as He Yingqin finished speaking, Wang Shihe walked in.

"Tell him to come in!" The Chairman still treated Dai Li very much.Except for the situation last night, it can be seen at any time.

"Report to the principal! The Japanese army launched a large-scale attack on our garrison in Pingjin area at 5:75 a.m. today. This is the information we collected; in addition, before the Japanese army launched a large-scale attack, our intelligence personnel also collected information that the Japanese army was mobilizing and preparing to do something; What is particularly strange is that before the Japanese army officially launched an offensive, there was a large-scale battle in the Pingjin area between Fengtai, Nanyuan, and Yuanping, and the two sides used at least [-]mm artillery!"

Dai Li reported three things, each of which passed the information to Generalissimo Jiang for review.

"By the way, why is there no news about Wanping and Lugouqiao, which have been fighting since the night of the 7th?" Committee member Jiang found that this place was blank among the many information. There is no movement of the three brigades, such as the Guanguiji brigade, what's going on?"

Who said that the chairman of the general committee does not understand military affairs? No, when Chairman Jiang asked, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay: Strange, how can the Lugou Bridge and Wanping be peaceful? There should be no movement.Not to mention, didn't the third brigade by the river attack very fiercely yesterday and the day before yesterday? Didn't they go on vacation during the Japanese army's massive attack?

"Extra, extra! The Japanese army aggressively attacked our North China garrison, and the Sino-Japanese war officially broke out!"

"Extra, extra! General Zhang Zizhong of the 37th Division said to the soldiers on the expedition: Every inch of land in our country must be fought, and the war will be fought to the end!"

"Extraordinary, extraordinarily! People in the intellectual circles appeal: unite and fight against Japan together!"

While the Generalissimo Chiang was thinking hard about countermeasures, newspaper boys in Nanjing and Shanghai had already conveyed the news to the citizens.

"Down with Japanese imperialism!"

"Down with traitors and traitors!"

"Unite and fight together!"

The figures of the newsboys have not yet disappeared, and a group of patriotic students emerged from the campuses of various universities. They held up flags, shouted slogans, and expressed their patriotic enthusiasm.

Nanjing.The official residence of Generalissimo Chiang.

"Chairman, Zhang Xueliang from Xi'an called: Request to send troops to Pingjin to avenge the fall of the Northeast!"

"Chairman, Li Zongren from Guangxi has called: When the Chinese nation is in peril, please allow the Guangxi army to go to the front lines of Pingjin and fight the enemy to the death!"

"Chairman, a call from Liu Xiang from Sichuan: The Sichuan Army requests to come out of Sichuan to fight against Japan!"

A telegram came, Wang Shihe went to read one.After a while, Wang Shihe brought a large stack of telegrams, "Chairman, Yan Xishan in Shanxi, Yang Hucheng in Shaanxi, Chen Jitang in Guangdong, Li Jishen in Hong Kong, Mr. Soong Ching Ling in Shanghai, and soldiers of the national army stationed in various places have sent telegrams, requesting the chairman to confirm as soon as possible. Anti-Japanese plan, lead the army and civilians of the whole country to fight to the death with the Japanese army!"

"Well, in the direction of northern Shaanxi, is there any news?" Chairman Jiang's thoughts drifted far away.

"On the 8th, they issued an announcement. Today, there is no news yet."

"What about Wu Aihua, didn't he go to northern Shaanxi?" Perhaps it was because of this person that it was difficult for Chiang Kai-shek to make a decision now.

Just before Chairman Jiang’s voice fell to the ground, Dai Li rushed in excitedly with a piece of information: “Chairman, the latest information: The Japanese Hebian Zhengsan Brigade was completely wiped out between 1:4 and 3:5 this morning. In Fengtai Daying; the Japanese Suzuki Shigekang Brigade was also wiped out in the Sihezhuang area on the outskirts of Beijing between [-]:[-] am and [-]:[-] am today!"

"Ah, who did it?" Not only Chiang Kai-shek stood up in surprise, but more than a dozen party and government officials in the conference hall stood up.

"I don't know. Our intelligence personnel saw the Japanese army collecting the corpses from a distance, but the Japanese medical troops in Fengtai also suffered heavy losses in the process of collecting the corpses!" Dai Li said.

"Oh, what's going on here?" This thing is getting weirder and weirder.

"Our intelligence personnel found that just as the devil was carefully lifting up a corpse, a big explosion suddenly occurred in the entire Fengtai camp. Only half of the hundreds of corpse collectors survived in the end, and the vehicle preparing to transport the corpse was also on the road. Burning in the explosion!"

"Chairman, the matter of Fengtai and Sihezhuang, I think it is very similar to the method of the Wu Aihua Department of the independent column of the Red Army." Chen Cheng thought for a while before saying.

"Oh, why do you know that?" The chairman became interested.This is good!Wu Aihua, let yourself lose a lot of face and lose hundreds of millions of French currency. The Japanese are equally hateful. It is a great thing that they can attack each other!

Chairman Jiang's rhetorical question made Chen Cheng speechless. He couldn't tell the story of his capture in public again. The chairman asked the question knowingly, embarrassing himself.

At 2 p.m., Tanggu fell;

At 3 p.m., Tong County fell;

At 4:[-] p.m., Nanyuan fell;

At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, Zhangjiakou fell...

Only Zhang Zizhong in Tianjin is still struggling to resist!

In half a day, the mountains and rivers changed color!Newspapers in Shanghai, Nanjing, Guangzhou, Beiping, and Wuhan published several special issues, telling the public the news of the war in a timely manner!

Yuancheng and Lugou Bridge, where the 29th Army Jixing Cultural Troupe is stationed at this time, were the national news centers a day ago, and now they are like isolated islands in the Pingjin area that no one cares about.

The Jixingwen regiment is lucky, because his regiment encountered Wu Aihua's independent column of the Red Army (at this time, Wu Aihua has not yet raised the banner), and he also learned from the side that the independent column of the Red Army was in the early hours of this morning. The enemy Hebian Zhengsan Brigade and Suzuki Shigekang Brigade were completely wiped out (Suzuki Shigekang died in battle, but the brigade flag was not captured), so that his regiment was preserved, and Lugou Bridge and Yuanping City were safe and sound.

"Hey, if only the 29th Army had such good equipment as the independent column!" At the regiment headquarters, Ji Xingwen was sitting with several battalion commanders, as if waiting for the judgment of fate.

"Tuan Zuo, I'm not trying to impress others. Even though we have such good equipment, we don't have the fighting power of an independent column!" Jin Zhenzhong, the commander of the third battalion, interjected.

"Why?" Ji Xingwen asked back.

"At the Lugou bridgehead position, I observed them fighting several times. The quality, tactical actions, and tactical thinking of their soldiers, including the self-confidence of the soldiers, are not comparable to those of our 29th Army. I think the regiment leader should have this It's a feeling."

"Well, it is indeed different from the ordinary army. Unfortunately, Wu Aihua is not from our national army." Ji Xingwen sighed.

Where did the Wu Aihua they were talking about go?

After the two battles in the early morning, Wu Aihua withdrew his troops 20 kilometers back to the vicinity of Tantuo Temple. At the same time, he set up a fake artillery barracks in a place that was very convenient for ambush Japanese aircraft bombing. However, he waited for the Japanese aircraft all morning. They didn't come either, which made Wu Aihua feel very bored.

Immediately, Wu Aihua convened a military meeting with more than a regiment leader, known in history as the "Tan Tuo Temple Meeting".

The meeting first notified the enemy's situation, and the Japanese army has launched a full-scale attack.Then discuss two major issues, one is the summary of the early morning battle, and the second is the future strategy.

The former item is very simple, but it also sums up the weaknesses of the National Defense Forces. For example, the soldiers' self-protection awareness is not strong, and they only care about killing the enemy, but they are killed by the enemy; For example, the self-protection issue of the artillery unit, as a 75mm mountain artillery unit, was even beaten by the devil's grenadier, which is worth reflecting on.

The second item is a bit more complicated.The officers under Wu Aihua are almost mature in tactics, but they are still very immature in strategy.Still a few division-level cadres put forward some constructive opinions.

Some people say that under the current situation, we must not easily withdraw to the south, otherwise, what the Chinese people will think, and besides, it is not in line with what the commander usually teaches us.

Some people said that they might as well go directly to Tianjin and drive the old devil Xiangyue Qingji out of Tianjin.

Li Yanbing stated directly, Commander, you give the order, whoever you say to hit, our Lightning Troops will definitely bring your head back to you.

Some people also said that the troops should quickly raise their banners and at the same time communicate our results to the whole country. In this way, it will have an encouraging effect on the confidence of the soldiers and civilians across the country.

Then, the proposal got closer and closer to Wu Aihua's ideal.Some people said, Commander, since it is impossible to return to the south, we should consider building a base somewhere in North China; some even said that we should expand our army in North China, according to the Commander's ability and the righteousness of the War of Resistance, within two months, Our Wehrmacht will have another [-] troops.

"Okay!" Everyone's chattering suggestions finally gave Wu Aihua a mature plan: "Immediately send a telegram to the whole country: First, announce the establishment of the Chinese National Defense Force. The purpose of the Chinese National Defense Force is to protect the fundamental interests of the Chinese nation." , will do everything possible to fight against all enemies who dare to invade, oppress, and deprive the fundamental interests of the Chinese nation, and defend the independence and dignity of the Chinese nation to the death! It is the captured brigade flag of the Hebian Zhengsan Brigade! Third, announce the location of our army, Fozizhuang, Fangshan County, Hebei Province."

"Ding! Congratulations to the host, you have won the title of National War Hero! Please explore the effect of the title yourself!" Just as Wu Aihua finished speaking, the system that had dealt a heavy blow to Wu Aihua heard a pleasant voice again.
