For Pan Qiwu's words, Boss Dai is well aware that there have always been factional disputes among the troops of the Shancheng government, and the key is that the power of the major warlords in the army is very large, although after the Central Plains War, the old man established his own position, but those warlords still exist, but only achieved superficial compromises.

It was also because of this situation that the old man took good care of his own descendants, and the resources of the Yamashiro government were tilted upside down, while the armies of the local warlords were attacked, co-opted, and divided, which naturally aroused strong dissatisfaction among the local factions.

In addition, the descendants of the troops and the local army cooperate in the battle, the descendants of the army have always put the local army at the forefront as cannon fodder, this practice is also quite inappropriate, but when it comes to the old man's strategy, as a descendant of Boss Dai, he can't say anything else.

"Although there are many factions within the army of our Shancheng government, there are often such things as dragging their feet and not saving them when they die, but this time they can't all blame them for the unfavorable rescue, who would have thought that the intelligence agency of the Japanese army actually deciphered the telegram of the Military Commission, and the Japanese army knew the action plan in advance."

"The reason why they have not been able to break through the Japanese defense line for a long time is not that they deliberately put the Tenth Army to death, but under the strict orders of the commission, the fighting was also very hard, the Japanese army intercepted it with heavy troops, the weapons and equipment were far stronger than ours, and the casualties of various units were also very large."

"In the final analysis, it is the generals who lead the troops who have the mind to preserve their strength, and they are so determined that they dare not risk being surrounded by the Japanese army to rescue, but in this way, the Tenth Army is completely hopeless. With less than 20,000 men to cope with the siege of four divisions of the Japanese army, defeat was a matter of days. Dai Li said.

On 7 August, the 10th Army, which was unable to support the battle, sent a farewell telegram to the Yamashiro government, and then burned important documents, destroyed radio stations, destroyed artillery and other heavy weapons, and prepared for a decisive battle.

Lieutenant General Fang Xianjue announced the disbandment of the military department and committed suicide by pulling out a gun, but was found by the adjutant and stopped.

Considering that there were still more than 13,000 officers and soldiers in Hengzhou, most of whom were wounded and sick, Commander Fang could not part with them, and after discussing with the division commanders, it was decided to send the chief of staff and adjutant to the Japanese army to contact them and lay down their arms.

Subsequently, the commander of the 68th Division of the Japanese Army, Lieutenant General Tsutsumi Sanshunan, negotiated with Commander Fang, and the 47-day battle to defend Hengzhou came to an end, and Hengzhou had been reduced to ruins.

This historical victory was a victory, the Japanese army itself lost more than 40,000 people, the four divisions were equal to more than half of the personnel, or more than half, while the 10th Army lost more than 5,000 people.

"Boss Dai sent a telegram to ask the Fujian, Jiangxi, and Hunan-Hunan offices of our direct station to rescue Commander Fang, who was under house arrest, and to send people to the mountain city safely."

"The committee spoke highly of the outstanding performance of the 10th Army in this defense of Hengzhou, and believed that it was understandable that Commander Fang had to lay down his arms this time." Wang Zhen said.

The battle came to this point, even the commission of the Shancheng government knew that he was a little sorry for General Fang Xianjue, and the reinforcements that he had said were not successful in rescuing the city when the city was broken, he felt guilty in his heart, and unexpectedly did not pursue the behavior of the Tenth Army to lay down his arms, but wanted to rescue Fang Xianjue and entrust him with a heavy task in the future.

Naturally, it would be better for the Military Command Bureau to handle such a matter, but the bureau headquarters did not directly consider it, so it put the heavy burden on the subordinate station and did not even mention the provincial station of the Military Control Bureau in Hunan Province.

In the great battle carried out by the dispatched army, the performance of the two sides was very different, and the directly subordinate station had already collected a large amount of information before the North China Front Army opened up the Pinghan Railway, and accurately gave early warning to the First Theater Command.

At the same time, the subordinate station monitored the Japanese troops in central China from the command level of the Japanese army and through the Fujian, Jiangxi, Hubei, and Hunan offices, until the outline of the entire combat plan was figured out.

As for the Tanzhou Station in Hunan Province, for the battle that happened at his own doorstep, he was actually confused, and the telegrams to the bureau headquarters were scattered and worthless.

"Then you will send a telegram to Jiang Anhua and ask him to personally supervise this task, now that Hengzhou has just fallen, the Japanese army's guard must be very strict, at this time, you must not do it, warn him to be patient enough, and wait until the enemy relaxes before implementing the rescue plan."

"I'm going to go to Jinling, after Wang Jingwei went to Japan for treatment, I haven't met Chen Gongbo much to learn about the recent situation of the big traitor, and by the way, I also talked to Matsui Taijiulang who is sitting in Jinling, just listening to the news of Yoshitaro Kawamoto, I think it's still not enough." Chen Mingxiang said.

Although Yoshitaro Kawamoto was the deputy chief of the general staff of the dispatch army, he had been in Shanghai for a long time and knew about the situation of the general headquarters later, while Matsui Taikuro was completely different, as the chief of the general staff of the dispatch army, he would be notified of everything in advance.

This time when he went to Jinling, although he still took the plane of the Army Airlines, he did not notify Ma Xiaotian and other leaders of the police department in advance, because he did not want too many people to know that he had come to Jinling.

Marshal Toshiroku Hata was in Jiangcheng and directly commanded and decided the process of the Xianggui Campaign, so Lieutenant General Matsui Taikuro, chief of the general staff of the dispatch army sitting in Jinling, actually did not have too heavy affairs at present, and happily accepted Chen Mingxiang's banquet.

If the chief of the General Staff wants to do things, then there are endless things to do, and he is unwilling to do things, and there is a large group of staff officers under his hands, as well as the deputy chief of the General Staff!

The topic inevitably talks about this war, and Chen Mingxiang also got a piece of news that is not classified, why is it not classified, it is because of a fine-tuning by the Japanese army.

The General Staff Headquarters of the Japanese Army believes that as the situation changes, the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army should immediately begin preparations to organize a unified defensive and operational system suited to the mainland, and therefore it is not appropriate for Shunroku Hatata, the commander-in-chief, to be stationed in Ejo again.

Both the General Staff Headquarters of the Japanese Army and the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army believe that it is necessary to set up a new command structure at the level of the front army in the Lianghu region and the Liangguang region in China to unify the command of operations in these four areas and to guide the administrative affairs of the occupied areas.

And this front army was the Sixth Front Army, which commanded the troops of the Japanese Eleventh, Twenty-third, and Thirty-fourth Armies and the Governor's Headquarters of the Port City.

The staff officers of the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army recommended to the base camp Lieutenant General Isamu Yokoyama of the Headquarters of the Eleventh Army as the commander of the Sixth Front Army.

The reason is that the front army headquarters needs to directly command the front operations, and a commander like Isamu Yokoyama, who has the ability to control the battlefield and command decisively, is the most suitable for the requirements.
