Chapter Ninety-Seven: Outside, the King's Order Is Not Affected!

Zheng Long's mind was racing rapidly, and the three of them didn't speak, they just stared at Zheng Long, and three seconds later, Zheng Long said stubbornly, "Below is Zheng Long, the commander of the special operations battalion under Wei Shanhe, the 219th Regiment of the 29th Army, who has come to Shanghai to participate in the Anti-Japanese War." ”

After listening to Zheng Long's words, Commander Zhang nodded slightly, and the other two did not respond.

Quiescence! Embarrassed!

"I've seen Commander Zhang, Commander Jin." Zheng Long saluted the two and said stubbornly, "Regarding this matter, I have a compromise solution, I don't know if it is feasible or not." ”

Commander Zhang glanced at Zheng Long, sat on the stool, took out a cigarette and lit a cigarette, and said concisely: "Speak!" ”

"Before I speak again, let me ask Commander Zhang a few questions, okay?" Zheng Long gradually had an idea in his mind.

Commander Zhang was stunned for a moment when he smoked, and said, "Just ask." ”

"Dare to ask Commander Zhang, what do you think of the situation in Shanghai?"

"Sooner or later, there will be a battle!" Commander Zhang was still concise and to the point.

"Then why did we take the lead?" Zheng Long thought for a moment and said, "Just because of the 128 armistice agreement? ”

Commander Zhang squinted at Zheng Long and said, "I can't guess what the chairman thinks!" ”

"Okay, I'm asking you, what do you think are the chances that the great powers of Britain, the United States, and France will help our country?" Zheng Long and Commander Zhang glanced at each other and continued to ask.

"I'm not sure." Commander Zhang thought about it seriously, shook his head, and threw the question to Zheng Longdao, "What do you think?" ”

"The odds are zero." Zheng Long opened his mouth to speak.

"Why?" Commander Zhang looked at Zheng Long's confident face and asked seriously, he needed a reasonable explanation.

"I read a sentence in the book, and Commander Zhang helped me analyze whether it was right or wrong." Zheng Long paused and said, "Weak countries have no diplomacy, do you agree with this sentence?" ”

"There is no diplomacy for a weak country." Commander Zhang muttered a sentence and motioned for Zheng Long to continue.

"Britain, the United States, and France are unlikely to give China the slightest help, first, Shanghai originally belonged to our land, and these powers only want to seek benefits in this land, so whoever is in charge of this land will give them nothing, as long as it does not violate their interests."

"Second, Japan is now stronger than our country in that respect, and it is much stronger, this is a fact that has to be admitted, and I would like to say that if Britain, France, and the United States hinder Japan, then the Japanese team will use their guns, and they will have to suffer, because they do not want to participate in the confrontation between China and Japan, and they do not want to get involved in this war."

"From these two points, it can be judged that Britain, France, and the United States remain neutral at most, and once they help China, it may cause retaliation from Japan."

"It's true that they are a military power, but it also depends on us, whether it is worth them to help us, and the current situation is obvious, they are unwilling!"

Commander Zhang and the other two division commanders were in deep thought when they heard this, Zheng Long said the truth, and he had to accept the facts.

Zheng Long and the other three digested it and continued, "I believe that with the wisdom of Commander Zhang, it can also be seen that the Japanese army is holding a meeting at this time to buy time, and they are waiting for the arrival of reinforcements." ”

"And the chairman of the committee did not move, it was nothing more than an attempt to leave a good impression on the foreign powers and hope that they would stop Japan."

"Commander Zhang, what I said, are you right?"

Commander Zhang thought for a while, didn't answer, obviously acquiesced to Zheng Long's thoughts, and asked directly, "Then what do you say?" Blatant disobedience fails? ”

Zheng Long swallowed his saliva when he heard this, he talked hard for a long time, and finally waited for an opportunity.

"Blatant disobedience is not enough." Zheng Long rolled his eyes and said, "But, if the Japanese army makes the first move, can we fight back?" ”

"What do you mean by that?" The three of them paused for a moment and spoke in unison.

"What excuse did the Japanese army use for the Lugou Bridge incident?" Zheng Long asked rhetorically.

When the three of them heard the sound, their eyes lit up, and they already knew it in their hearts.

"As long as we bite the bullet and say that the Japanese army moves first, everything else will not be a problem." Zheng Long said fiercely, "I don't believe it, when the war starts, other countries will brave the artillery fire to solve the case." ”

The reason is very simple, this is equivalent to two children fighting, as long as they fight, it doesn't matter if it's right or wrong, just win or lose, even more so between the two countries, they all fight, who is right and wrong, what's the point?

"There is a lot of truth in that." Commander Zhang pondered for a moment and said, "Yao Bingbing, Jin Kui listens to orders!" ”

"Here!" The two, including Zheng Long, hurriedly stood up and saluted.

"Everything is going according to plan, hit me, hit hard!" Commander Zhang ordered directly.

"Commander Zhang, for the navy at Huishan Wharf, we have to strike first." Zheng Long immediately reminded.

"I know what I know." Commander Zhang nodded and motioned for the three of them to hurry up and do something.

Seeing that the situation had been decided, Master Yao and Master Jin seized the time to hold a meeting, the content of the meeting was very simple, Master Yao repeated Zheng Long's strategy, which was highly recognized by Master Jin, and the two sides reached an agreed point of view and left quickly.

In fact, all this Zheng Long just played a role in lubrication, the key problem is that Commander Zhang also wants to fight, in fact, what Zheng Long said about Commander Zhang can't be unexpected, but as a superior, he can't say some things, and if Zheng Long says it, he can push the boat down the river.

This is wisdom, deep wisdom.

Half an hour later, Yao Bingbing and Zheng Long hurriedly got out of the car, hurried to the conference room, and held a pre-war meeting for everyone, conveying the main idea that the Japanese army fired the gun first, and our army was only out of self-defense.

At the same time, Jin Kui also returned to his division headquarters and conveyed the same order.

After the core idea was determined, the two sides telegraphed and decided to officially launch an attack on the Japanese army at half past eight in the evening.

At the same time, at a private wharf on the Huangpu River, Lu Zizheng stood on the shore and waited quietly.

After a while, the crowd of threes and twos came out of the darkness and gathered at the dock, until more than a hundred people arrived, Lu Zizheng briefly explained two sentences, and then ordered to get on the boat.

This wharf was specially arranged by Du Yuesheng, and it was relatively secret, because Du Yuesheng was engaged in the opium business, and the ship and wharf were a convenient thing for him.

He arranged for Lu Zizheng five steamers, four small boats, and one large boat, which were only equipped with two old guns and a few shells, which was Du Yuesheng's greatest ability.

It is worth mentioning that Du Yuesheng is also equipped with a corresponding boatman to assist Lu Zizheng and others, which makes Lu Zizheng's attitude towards Du Yuesheng change a little.

The boat left slowly, Lu Zizheng stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the pier gradually in the distance, letting the clothes on his body blown by the sea breeze hunting, he stood on the bow of the boat, without saying a word, his eyes were deep.

Here, life and death are unknown!
