In the press release he wrote, even Sun Changhui's name was directly mentioned, and it was inferred that the mastermind behind the scenes may be Sun Yuanliang, the commander of the 88th Division.

In his press release, Bao Ziwen not only criticized Sun Changhui's shameless behavior, but also highly praised Qin Chuan, calling him a hero who defended the Zhabei position in Shanghai.

The editor of Shanghai Ta Kung Pao saw Bao Ziwen's press release and confirmed to him: "Ziwen, are you sure you want to send this manuscript out?" You're not afraid..."

Bao Ziwen straightened his chest and said: "The soldiers on the front line are not afraid of death, why should I be afraid?" Can they still outperform the brutal Japanese army? ”

Hearing this, his editor, who had some remaining literati backbone, also made him nod and said, "Okay, then I'll arrange printing immediately." ”

After working overtime in the second half of the night, Bao Ziwen's press release was successfully published on the front page of the "Shanghai Ta Kung Pao" the next day, and a photo was attached to the newspaper.

That was the scene where Qin Chuan led his soldiers to rush to the Japanese army on Ping'an Street. Although the picture is a little blurry, the resolute backs have a strong impact.

Soon, the newspapers were sold out, and the newspaper had to print three more batches in a row.

The names of Qin Chuan and the three battalions soon spread throughout Shanghai.

On the south bank of Suzhou Creek, in the afternoon, there were even some civil groups, holding high flags on the south bank, cheering for the soldiers fighting on the north bank.

Qin Chuan stood on a high place, looking at the people on the north shore with a telescope, and he didn't know where to get a Luo Guohe lion dance team, and he actually started beating gongs and drums over there, and also dancing lion.

It's just a pity that they shouted in Shanghainese, and Qin Chuan listened to it there for a long time, and he didn't understand a word.

The contents of the newspaper not only shocked the citizens of Shanghai, but also some high-ranking members of the Kuomintang were already reading the newspaper at this time.

Although Qin Chuan's troops gave them a long face this time, Sun Changhui, who was criticized by Bao Ziwen inside, and Sun Yuanliang, who may be the mastermind behind the scenes, also became the target of public criticism at this time.

Some students have even begun to march to protest against the removal of Sun Yuanliang and Sun Changhui from their military posts.

"Darling, did you see the newspaper of Shanghai Ta Kung Pao today?" Song Meiling walked up to Chairman Jiang and asked softly.

At this time, the chairman of the NPC National Committee was sitting upright at his desk, holding in his hand the "Shanghai Ta Kung Pao" that had just been released this morning

The chairman raised his head, looked at his wife and said, "I have read it all, Sun Yuanliang called me early in the morning and admitted his mistake. ”

"I've heard that many citizens and students in Shanghai have begun to take to the streets to protest, how should this be handled?" Song Meiling asked.

The chairman shook his head with a smile and said: "You, you always take these things too seriously, and the protest is only temporary, and as soon as the Japanese shelling begins, they will obediently return to their respective homes." It's just that what Sun Yuanliang did this time is really not right, I have already warned him on the phone just now, telling him to focus on the overall situation and not seek personal gain.

He was a student of the first phase of Whampoa, and I brought it out with my own hands. Now how many students in the first phase of Huangpu have died on the battlefield, and how many have joined the Communist Party. There are only a few people who can still use it. ”

Song Meiling said: "That's good, now the front-line soldiers are urgent, but we can't make the soldiers chill." ”

The chairman smiled and said: "I understand this, don't worry, I will send a commendation order to Qin Chuan in a while to boost morale." And this matter should not only be publicized by these non-governmental newspapers, but also by our military.

Such warriors, who have made meritorious contributions in the War of Resistance and killed countless enemies, should naturally be used as an example to learn from and inspire soldiers on other fronts. ”

Subsequently, he asked his staff officers to immediately issue a commendation order to Qin Chuan and his troops. At the same time, he also sent a telegram to Sun Yuanliang, asking him to take care of the overall situation.

When Sun Yuanliang saw the content of "Shanghai Ta Kung Pao", he was directly shocked into a cold sweat. So early in the morning, before the chairman saw the newspaper, he called to admit his mistake.

He knew that the chairman would not really remove him. This kind of mistake is actually not worth mentioning compared to the mistakes he made before.

However, through this incident, Sun Yuanliang can be regarded as completely aware that this relative of his daughter-in-law is really muddy and can't support the wall.

So early in the morning, Sun Yuanliang sent a telegram to Qin Chuan, asking him to temporarily take charge of the second battalion, and at the same time, Sun Changhui, the commander of the second battalion, was directly transferred to other departments.

When he received the news, Qin Chuan was also very surprised. However, he immediately realized that it was very likely that the high-level pressure on Sun Yuanliang was there, or he decided that his relative was a waste.

But no matter what, Qin Chuan was still very happy when he heard this order.

Because in any case, the number of troops under his command has become more than before, so he will naturally have more room to play.

The strength of the 2nd Battalion had been partially lost in the battle of the previous evening, and after some of the other routs had been retracted, there were still more than 300 men in total, barely forming three companies.

The three companies were sixth, seventh, and eighth.

In last night's battle, the soldiers of these companies were also very brave and very capable of fighting.

This made Qin Chuan realize that the soldiers were actually good soldiers, that is, their previous commander was Sun Changhui, and it was only because he lost several blocks in a row that he was so sloppy.

Last night, the group of people in the second battalion, along with Qin Chuan's third battalion, captured Ping'an Street occupied by the Japanese army, and they also admired Qin Chuan and his subordinates very much.

When they heard that they were going to be assigned to the third battalion, the soldiers, instead of showing any sadness, were very happy.

In addition to the fact that Qin Chuan can command and fight, and does not let his soldiers die, it is said that he will not deduct money every time.

Although the outside reports made Qin Chuan and the soldiers of the third battalion give the 88th Division commander a face. But now the offensive pressure they need to face will also increase.

Because they have become the representative troops of the entire Songhu front, the Japanese army will definitely focus on attacking this leading force at that time, thus reducing the spirit of the national army in the entire Songhu battlefield.

In addition, Matsui Shigen was also on a par with Qin Chuan at this time, saying that he would knock down the Ping'an Street they occupied.

For this reason, Matsui Ishine deliberately dispatched an armored brigade from other regions directly. This Japanese armored team, equipped with a large number of tanks and armored vehicles, can be said to be invincible and devastating in the previous battles against the national army.
