In August, Chongqing had several consecutive rainstorms, and the weather finally cooled down, at least not as hot as some time ago.

Knowing that the hot and scorching weather in Chongqing had receded, Principal Chang left the Ningcui Building of Mount Emei as soon as possible, nothing else, because he actually remembered the results of the battle between Zhejiang and Fujian in his heart, so he wanted to return to Chongqing as soon as possible.

Upon learning that President Chang was returning to Chongqing today, Chen Shi, Liu Sheng, He Yingpei, Bai Chongbei and other senior generals of the party-state gathered at the gate of the Huangshan Mansion to greet President Chang.

Before President Chang's motorcade arrived, several senior generals began to talk about the front-line war, and while chatting, a few people talked about the battle of Zhejiang and Fujian, which was in full swing.

Chen Chengcheng was almost torn up with Zhong Yi, so he had no scruples about talking.

"Brother Jing, have you heard?" Chen Shi said to He Yingpei, "The 192nd Division suffered a great defeat on the Xinsheng battlefield and lost one and a half battalions. ”

At this time, several divisions of the 11th Group Army were still fighting the Japanese army in Xinsheng, and the Japanese troops gathered in the Xinsheng battlefield had increased from the previous two divisions and five wings to four divisions and nine wings.

So the casualties of the 10th Army began to grow.

Chen Shi is talking about one of the breakout battles, a battalion of the 192nd Division was surrounded by a fast column of the Japanese army in Dashiju Town, Xinchang, and was almost completely annihilated.

He Yingpei said: "Didn't you say that you broke through?" ”

"Hu Dana put gold on his face, that's why he said that he broke through." Chen Shi said, "But I dare to assert that the one and a half battalions of the 192nd Division that were surrounded by the Japanese army in Juzhen, Xinchang City, must have ended." ”

Liu Sheng couldn't help but say: "Brother Cixiu, it's better to say less if there is no basis." ”

"What do you mean unfounded?" Chen Shi said, "This is my inference based on facts!" ”

Liu Shengdao: "But as far as I know, the troops of the 192nd Division that were surrounded in Dashi did stand out in the end, and the old foundation is still there. ”

"Come on, come on, don't put gold on Zhong Ziren's face." Chen Shi said, "Yes, I admit that Zhong Ziren, this kid is a good fighter, and he has indeed fought a lot of tough battles, but this time in the battle of Xinsheng, he commanded a really mess, and I don't know what he is doing." ”

Hearing this, Liu Sheng immediately fell silent.

Because Liu Sheng couldn't understand Zhong Yi's true combat intentions.

On the surface, Zhong Yi's intention was to carry out a mobile war on the Xinsheng battlefield, using the five main divisions of the 10th Group Army to play hide and seek with the Japanese army on the Xinsheng battlefield, dragging the Japanese army down and dragging them down, and then concentrating the 18 divisions of the 41st Group Army, the 10th Group Army, and the Coastal Defense Corps to gather and annihilate the Japanese army on the Xinsheng battlefield.

Even if we cannot completely annihilate them, we must strive to annihilate one or two of them.

Zhong Yi's judgment was that as long as one or two divisions of the Japanese army were annihilated, the Japanese army's Zhejiang-Fujian battle plan could only be abandoned halfway.

Liu Sheng fully agreed with Zhong Yi's judgment that as long as one division was annihilated, the Japanese army's Zhejiang-Fujian battle plan would fall into a comprehensive passivity, and if two divisions could be annihilated, the Zhejiang-Fujian battle plan formulated by the Japanese army would be bankrupt, and the Japanese army would have no other choice than a complete withdrawal of troops.

However, Liu Sheng was puzzled by the fact that among the six main divisions of the Tenth Group Army originally scheduled to be used for fishing, except for Tao Liu's 62nd Division and Zhang Yuannan's 194th Division, the remaining four main divisions had already suffered heavy losses on the Xinsheng battlefield, not only losing a large number of weapons, equipment, and soldiers, but more importantly, the space for maneuvering was also greatly compressed.

Liu Sheng was worried that in another three or five days, these four divisions would be completely annihilated by the Japanese army.

Fighting a sports war, but in the end it ended up like this, Liu Sheng was a little disappointed in Zhong Yi in his heart.

Even so, the main force of the 41st Group Army and the two detachments of the Coastal Defense Corps that left Yinjiang were still nowhere to be seen, so Liu Sheng didn't understand what Zhong Yi's intentions were at all.

Liu Sheng faintly felt that Zhong Yi's real intention might not be the devil on the battlefield of Xinsheng.

It's no wonder that Liu Sheng is confused, because until now, this senior general of the party-state has been kept in the dark by Zhong Yi, and President Chang knows the inside story, but he has not made it public.

With a light snort, Chen Shi said again: "If you want me to say, Zhong Yi must have done this on purpose." ”

"Brother Resignation is cautious." Bai Chongbei couldn't help but say, "Your words are a bit of a curse. ”

"Cursed? I'm telling the truth! Chen Shidao, "Zhong Yi just wants to eliminate dissidents through the Battle of Xinsheng, and then firmly control the Tenth Group Army in his hands, otherwise, how to explain that the Tenth Army has two armies and six divisions, and only Zhang Yuannan's 194th Division and Tao Liu's 62nd Division remain intact?" ”

He Yingpei said lightly: "I heard that Zhang Yuannan, the commander of the 194th Division, is Zhong Ziren's brother-in-law? As for the 62nd Division, it was Zhong Ziren's old unit, and the 367th Brigade that was transferred to Nanjing and the Wuhan battlefield was not expanded from the 367th Regiment of the 62nd Division? ”

"Yes." Chen Shi snorted, "What is this not to exclude dissidents?" ”

Liu Sheng: "No matter what you think, anyway, I believe Zhong Yi is not this kind of person." ”

While several high-ranking generals of the party-state were arguing, a loud voice suddenly sounded in the distance: "The principal has arrived!" ”

Several high-ranking generals hurriedly stopped arguing, and then subconsciously stood up one by one, and when they looked up again, they saw that a convoy had already entered the gate of the Huangshan Mansion.

One of the Mercedes Benzes was parked under the steps.

The car door opened, and Lin Wei, the director of the attendant room, got out of the car first, then trotted around the front of the car to the right side, and then pulled the car door to cover the lintel with his hand.

Then Principal Chang bent down and got out of the car.

"Headmaster!" Chen Shi and several other high-ranking generals saluted.

Principal Chang returned the military salute, waved his hand again, and said, "Go in and talk." ”

Principal Chang's tone revealed undisguised joy, which made Chen Shi and several other senior generals a little confused, what is the situation? What's the joy?

But it doesn't seem to be, there are a lot of bad things on the battlefield.

Principal Chang didn't say much, and walked quickly to the study of Yunxiu Building first.

Chen Shi and several other senior generals could only hold back and followed Principal Chang into the study of Yunxiu Building.

Before entering the door, Chen Shi also cast an inquiring glance at He Yingpei, as if asking if there was any happy event? Chen Shi can only spread his hands and smile bitterly, I don't know very well.
