At this time, the African People's Army completely annihilated the Franco-Portuguese alliance after a day and a night of fierce fighting, but its own casualties were also quite heavy, including more than 13,700 officers and soldiers below the rank of lieutenant general killed in battle. More than 7,740 people were seriously injured. The 55th Division, as the main force, suffered the heaviest casualties, with a reduction of 35%. The division commander and political commissar were all killed. The chief of staff lost an eye.

With a heavy heart, Durabo told Lee Jun-ho the news, and Lee Jun-ho was also very surprised when he received this telegram. The division commander Myron and the political commissar Balk actually died. These two Li Junhao are still relatively familiar, and their combination is still matched by Li Junhao, but I didn't expect all of them to be killed in this battle. It was really a blow to Li Junhao.

However, Li Junhao still ordered the air force to bring the bodies of the two back to the non-capital and buried them in the martyrs' cemetery located west of the non-capital. The name and ranking are in the Memorial Hall of the People's Heroes of Feijing.

Just when Li Junhao buried the bodies of the two lieutenant generals with a heavy heart, Xu Kehai, who was far away in Far East China, was as big as a fight. When Xu Kehai first came to Shanghai. When he asked to see Zhang Zhizhong, the supreme commander of Shanghai, the reception staff outside the door initially prevaricated Xu Kehai for various reasons. Later, after Kong Xiangxi reported what he knew in Africa to the Nanjing government, Zhang Zhizhong belatedly met Xu Kehai.

It's not that Zhang Zhizhong himself feels that he looks down on Xu Kehai because of his big cards. It's that the guards learned that Xu Kehai was a Chinese who returned to China to aid the domestic war of resistance, and they saw Xu Kehai as a wronged boss and wanted to kill him, but Xu Kehai didn't go to the road, so they simply lit up Xu Kehai in the later stage.

When Zhang Zhizhong learned of this incident, he was furious, and originally wanted to shoot these people, but after Xu Kehai made it clear, he was demoted to the front-line troops, and the front-line troops were also arranged to the death squad.

When Xu Kehai found out his identity, he really startled Zhang Zhizhong, but he didn't expect that the young man in front of him was actually a general of the African People's Republic, and he secretly scolded those guards in his heart. But it's so good that Tsui Hark and Lee Jun-ho often quarrel, and he has long looked down on these things. So Xu Kehai didn't care about him.

Then Xu Kehai selectively ignored those unpleasant things and said with a big grin: "General Zhang, I returned to China this time to support the domestic war of resistance, which is also the intention of the chairman of my family and my decision, of course, I am not a naked person who returned to China. This time, I brought the first batch of anti-war supplies to China. Of course, this first batch is not very many, and it is also a little bit of my country's heart. ”

Zhang Zhizhong naturally knew that Xu Kehai returned to China with a batch of Yuanhua materials, but in fact, he didn't know what Xu Kehai was carrying, and there was no detailed introduction in the telegram. But out of politeness, Zhang Zhizhong still expressed his gratitude.

Xu Kehai saw Zhang Zhizhong's attitude and knew that he was afraid that he was being kept in the dark about the materials he was carrying, so he took out the list and said to Zhang Zhizhong: "General Zhang, the list of materials for my return to China this time is here, and there are some weapons and medicines in it. Among them, 40,000 Type 35 rifles and 2,000 Type 37 light machine guns. Type 37 heavy machine guns, 500 units. 500 mortars. 10 million rounds of ammunition of all kinds. And some 12. 7 mm large-bore high-level dual-purpose machine gun. The rest are just some medicines. Of course, this is only the first batch of materials to aid the domestic war of resistance, and the second batch of Yuanhua materials will be transported to China in the following time. After speaking, Xu Kehai handed the list to Zhang Zhizhong.

After Zhang Zhizhong heard the list of Xu Kehai's posters, he hurriedly took Xu Kehai's list and browsed it. The more you look at your face, the more joy you have. At this time, Xu Kehai said again: "General Zhang, before I returned to China, I learned about some of the situation in Shanghai. At present, the defenders of Shanghai include the 87th and 88th Divisions of your army, the 2nd Division, which has been reinforced one after another, the Teaching Corps of the Central Military Academy, and some Sichuan Army units with few clothes and guns. I hope that these weapons will be distributed to those troops who lack them. ”

Zhang Zhizhong then nodded and said, "At this point, General Xu, please rest assured, I will distribute these weapons to those soldiers who lack weapons." ”

"That's good, so I'm relieved, and I've also done some understanding of your army's weapons and equipment in the past few days. You're armed with some Vickers tanks and a handful of 150mm howitzers. But I took a look at their training and it was basically a mess. There is no level of concerted operation at all. In this way, it will be very disadvantageous to carry it with the Japanese. Xu Kehai continued:

Zhang Zhizhong's questions about Xu Kehai's statement are taught one by one on the surface, but only God knows how much he can eat in the New Year. Later, Zhang Zhizhong diverted the topic and said: "I heard General Xu's accent should be from Jiangsu, right?" ”

Xu Kehai said: "Yes, I am from Suzhou, Jiangsu, and my father is Xu Yanzhong, who was originally a businessman in Suzhou, but was persecuted by the Japanese. My father and mother died tragically at the hands of the Japanese, and I was forced to go into exile. He went to Africa and joined Chairman Lee Jun-ho as a soldier. Those who applied to return to China to participate in the War of Resistance after the July 7 Incident. ”

"General Xu, I'm sorry for mentioning your sadness. Forgive me. Zhang Zhizhong hurriedly said apologetically. Then he asked, "Then General Xu, what other relatives do you have?" ”

"There is also an older brother who doesn't know whether he is alive or dead." Xu Kehai sighed as he looked at the ceiling of the living room after speaking.

"General Xu, you don't have to be sad, maybe your brother is still alive, you can tell your brother's name, and I will arrange for someone to find it for you."

"Then there's General Law. My brother's name is Xu Kejiang. Xu Kehai said:

"Okay, I'll let you know as soon as I have the results. By the way, for your arrival, I carried a table of wine for you to pick up the wind and wash the dust. Zhang Zhizhong said:

Later, Xu Kehai participated in this banquet, and at this banquet, Xu Kehai knew the entire Kuomintang Party officers in Shanghai. At first, these generals were very surprised to see the military uniform of the African People's Army worn by Xu Kehai. In particular, the words on the military uniform still feel familiar, but they are very different. Those characters are simplified characters for later generations. The words "African People's Army Army". After Xu Kehai's translation, it was the African People's Army, and everyone suddenly became enlightened.

In the next few days, Xu Kehai visited the situation of the various garrison troops of the Congress Party army everywhere, and the troops who arrived here all felt the proximity of the war, and they were stepping up their training, among which Xu Ke also felt relieved that the weapons he brought were all sent down, of course, some good weapons were still taken by the central army, and those rifles or something were issued to the local army led by the Sichuan army. I can't say anything more about these Xu Kehai.
