Yinjiang, the staff of the East Zhejiang Coastal Defense Corps.

He Wenxi walked in with a telegram and said to Zhong Yi: "Attend, the headquarters is in an emergency." โ€

Zhong Yi took the telegram, only glanced at it, and the corners of his mouth immediately outlined a contemptuous arc.

He Wenxi said in a deep voice: "Counselor, you can't reply to this telegram, the headquarters is forcing you to make a military order!" โ€

"Writ of Order? What do you mean? Yu Bojun, the commander of the Sixth Regiment, happened to come to the staff headquarters to report to Zhong Yi, and when he heard this, he received the telegram from Zhong Yi.

After reading the telegram, Yu Bojun's face also changed.

Yu Bojun said: "Yes, Senzai, Director He is right, you can't reply to this telegram." โ€

After a pause, Yu Bojun said again: "If you reply to the headquarters that you are only four or five percent sure, then you have been convicted of fearing the enemy and fearing difficulties, and you have already disobeyed the order once, if you are convicted of fearing the enemy and fearing difficulties, they will be able to deal with you in a grand manner, so you must not call back." โ€

He Wenxi said: "If the senza replies that there are six or seven percent certainty, it will become a military order, if the battle of Zhejiang-Fujian is won in the end, it is good to say, but if the battle is lost, they will put all the responsibility on you, and then they will use you as a scapegoat!" โ€

"Four or five percent sure? Six or seven percent sure? Zhong Yi shook his head and said, "Director He, Head Yu, what are you thinking?" I can tell you responsibly that the possibility of winning the battle of Zhejiang and Fujian, not to mention forty percent, fifty percent, sixty percent, and even one percent is not possible, at best, half percent! โ€

"Huh?" Yu Bojun couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

He Wenxi was also stunned and said: "Counselor, didn't you say five or five before?" โ€

Zhong Yi shook his head and said, "When I say five-five, I don't mean winning the battle of Zhejiang and Fujian. โ€

After a pause, Zhong Yi said again: "The so-called victory in the Battle of Zhejiang and Fujian is to give the Japanese army a decisive blow, even if it cannot completely annihilate the Japanese army, it must at least annihilate more than half!" Or drive the Japanese back to the area before the war, so that it can be regarded as a real victory, do you think this can be done? โ€

"Inflict heavy losses on the Japanese army, or drive the Japanese back to their original area?" He Wenxi and Yu Bojun looked at each other for a moment, of course, this is absolutely impossible, because of the huge gap between the two sides at the level of weapons, once the Japanese army occupies a certain place, it will be extremely difficult for the national army to recapture it.

Since the beginning of the war, the county towns recaptured by the national army can be counted in two slaps.

Moreover, most of the counties recaptured were abandoned by the Japanese army on their own initiative because of inconvenient transportation.

Zhong Yi said: "What I told you before is that two new stalemate lines are formed in the north of the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Highway and in the south of Zhejiang, so as to ensure the smooth flow of the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Highway. โ€

Yu Bojun said: "In this way, the command is playing with words, deliberately vague, and does not clearly explain the true meaning of winning the battle of Zhejiang and Fujian. โ€

"Senzai, I'll call back to the high command and ask them to explain the specific definition of winning the war."

After He Wenxi finished speaking, he turned around and was about to walk to the communication office next door, but as soon as he turned around, Zhong Yi stopped him.

"He Wenren, there is no need for this." Zhong Yi waved his hand and said, "What's more, even if you ask them to explain, they won't explain, my generation of soldiers takes obedience to orders as their duty!" โ€

Yu Bojun said: "Counselor, since we know that this is a pit, we can't jump in!" โ€

Yu Bojun is still very grateful to Zhong Yi for taking the initiative to dig him up from Yu Liangzhen's side, and entrusting him with the important task of being the head of the regiment as soon as he came, and giving him all the veterans of the six regiments, so he has a sense of mission to die for his confidant, so after knowing that Zhong Yi was calculated by others, he was very excited.

Zhong Yi waved his hand and said: "Director He, you immediately reply to the Command, you just reply, just say that if you give me full command and the right to dispose of the situation, I will be very sure to win the battle of Zhejiang and Fujian!" โ€

"Huh? Sure? โ€

"Sure? Does it mean a steady win? โ€

He Wenxi and Yu Bojun were stupid when they heard this.

Even if it's a boast, you can't boast like that, right?

I am very sure that the six divisions of the little devil are regarded as local chickens and dogs!

After a long time, He Wenxi asked in a low voice, "Counselor, do you really reply like this?" โ€

Yu Bojun also said: "Counselor, we know that you are very angry, in fact, I am also angry, but if you are angry again, you will not be angry with the command like this." โ€

Yu Bojun thought to himself, if this telegram was really going to be sent, Zhong Yi would never recover.

Even if the Battle of Zhejiang-Fujian was fought to the end, the national army realized its pre-war intentions and formed a new line of support in the north of the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Highway and in the mountainous areas of southern Zhejiang, even if the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Highway was kept, the Command could say that the Battle of Zhejiang-Fujian was not won, so Zhong Yi not only would not have merit, but even hard work.

Zhong Yi smiled slightly, and said to He Wenxi: "Reply like this." โ€

Zhong Yi naturally thought more deeply than He Wenxi and Yu Bojun, and he could even guess Principal Chang's contradictory mood.

On the one hand, adhering to the principle of non-Whampoa and no reuse, Principal Chang is really reluctant to reuse Zhong Yi, who was born in West Point.

But on the other hand, there are still too few senior commanders under the command of President Chang who can really stand alone and fight tough battles, Xue Yue must be counted as one, but he wants to sit in Changsha, and he can't move lightly!

Li Guangxi is also counted as one, but at this time, he also has to sit in Tongbai Mountain.

Fu Yisheng is also one, but at the moment he is far away in Suiyuan, and it is difficult to quench his thirst in the distant water.

The remaining generals, even Bai Xiaozhuge, have been proven in the Battle of Suizao, and their command ability is actually very average, so it is better to stay in the headquarters as a staff officer.

The remaining lineage warriors like Du Yuming and Hu Zongnan still lack the experience to stand alone, and suddenly let them take on the heavy responsibility of one aspect, which is too risky and irresponsible.

Therefore, after calculating it, he Zhong Yi is barely usable.

Although he Zhong Yi has a low military rank and is only a major general, he has already independently commanded two large-scale battles such as the Battle of Nanjing and the Battle of Wuhan, and his record is good.

Therefore, Zhong Yi could roughly guess Principal Chang's thoughts.

Principal Chang wanted to use him, but he couldn't help but guard against him.

In short, it is necessary to use his ability, but he can't be allowed to make meritorious contributions because of the battle of Zhejiang and Fujian, so he will take such pains to make a word game and dig such a hole for him.

In this regard, Zhong Yi didn't care at all, so he made a military order!
