Chapter 197: In vain
Chu Wenli was silent for a long time, he looked up and saw the solemnity and firmness in Han Xin's eyes, he didn't know why Han Xin would evaluate Japan like this, and describe the Japanese army as so cruel and cold-blooded.
But he has a trust in Han Xin from the bottom of his heart, and he believes that such a general who leads thousands of troops will definitely not exaggerate.
"Okay, I'll try!" Chu Wenli finally agreed.
Han Xin's face relaxed a little, and he once again looked at the people of Nanjing who were laughing in ignorance, these fresh lives, he would never watch them wither before his eyes.
"Brother Chu, please leave everything to you!"
Chu Wenli nodded, and immediately did not delay, and began to power everywhere.
Han Xin was still feeling the customs and folklore of Nanjing, waiting for Chu Wenli's news on the spot, his heart was a little bumpy, and he didn't know if the benefits brought by his little butterfly could change this cruel history.
But in any case, he tried his best, as for whether he can succeed or not, everything depends on the will of God!
Chu Wenli's work efficiency was very high, and he didn't let Han Xin wait for a long time, and about half an hour later, Chu Wenli returned.
It's just that his face has completely revealed the result of this time, Han Xin's heart sank to a low point in an instant, and he still said incredulously: "They, didn't they agree?"
"I'm sorry!"
Chu Wenli opened his mouth apologetically, and said helplessly: "I personally explained the situation to the relevant chiefs, and also told my superiors about your worries, Brother Han, and even asked my senior, General Zhang Zhizhong, to come forward."
But there was no way, the decision to block the road from Nanjing to Jiangbei was personally issued by Commander-in-Chief Tang Shengzhi and could not be changed. ”
"Haha, can't change it? Do they still tell you that my opinion is sensational, disturbing the people's minds, and even seriously affecting the unity of the army and the people in the defense of Nanjing?
Did they tell you that they would defend Nanjing to the death, and that Nanjing would never be breached by the Japanese army?
Do they also tell you that Nanjing, as the ancient capital of China and the capital of the nation, even if it is broken by the Japanese army, the Japanese army will not dare to wave the butcher's knife? ”
Han Xin's mocking voice suddenly sounded, and he suddenly realized something, this may be the essential difference between ** and the Communist Army.
There is no need for Lao Jiang's hardships and reasons, but one thing we have to admit is that the proportion of the people in the hearts of Mao and Jiang is absolutely different, and the former is far greater than the latter.
This is like Liu Bei and Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms period, even if the world says that Liu Bei is hypocritical and righteous, but throughout Liu Bei's life, even if he is chased like a lost dog, he has never abandoned the people.
Of course, these are Han Xin's personal feelings.
Chu Wenli glanced at Han Xin in a little surprise, he didn't expect him to be so clear about the thoughts of the ** high-level people.
Indeed, just as Han Xin said, the relevant ** leaders stationed in Nanjing not only did not agree to Han Xin's request, but also severely criticized them on the phone.
To say that Han Xin is a capitulationist mentality is unacceptable, and there is even a suspicion of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.
He also said that the people of Nanjing did not evacuate because the people trusted the National Revolutionary Army and were willing to live and die with Nanjing and jointly defend the capital.
The existence of such a common people who love their homeland and country, and the excellent situation in which the army and the people are united, are absolutely not allowed to be destroyed.
…… Anyway, a bunch of forms of big officials said that they were impassioned, and Han Xin, who finally proposed to let the people evacuate in advance, became the target of criticism.
If it weren't for Chu Wenli's efforts and assurances on the phone, I am afraid that Han Xin's idea would not have been adopted, and he would have been arrested as a reactionary at this time.
Chu Wenli didn't tell Han Xin about this, but Han Xin knew it.
"Brother, maybe the situation is not as bad as you think, and I haven't heard of any massacres of people since the Japanese army occupied Shanghai.
Since they have learned from the past, what they want to deal with is only us soldiers, and it will not be too much for the elderly, women, and people who are helpless. ”
Chu Wenli didn't know what to say, so he had to comfort Han Xin, but speaking from his heart, Chu Wenli really felt that Han Xin was too worried.
"Shanghai, that's because Shanghai's influence is too great, and there are many foreign business industries in Shanghai, and the Japanese have too many concerns to dare to put down the butcher's knife in vain......"
Han Xin's words finally stopped halfway through.
Chu Wenli was able to do this because of his own words, which was already quite good.
Although the two already have a sense of sympathy for each other, it definitely does not mean that they have reached the point of being like brothers.
So there are too many things that Han Xin can't say to Chu Wen Liming.
For example, Han Xin's statement that the Japanese army would carry out a massacre in Nanjing is not a casual speculation.
Although the memories from later generations tell Han Xin that this is a real and unavoidable history, there are also signs and specific fuses on the eve of this tragic history.
After the end of the Shanghai War, the Japanese casualties were still relatively heavy, and one of the important reasons for this was that the Japanese army stretched the battle line too long in the Shanghai operation, the army was exhausted, and the materials were somewhat insufficient, so the Japanese commander decided to take advantage of the victory to pursue and directly eliminate the main Chinese forces in Nanjing.
And Han Xin, who has experienced real history, knows that although the Battle of Nanjing was defeated due to important mistakes by high-level commands, a large number of iron-blooded soldiers and generals emerged during the Battle of Nanjing.
They fought bloodily, fearless of a strong enemy, and fought to the death with the Japanese army, and the resistance was extremely fierce, resulting in heavy casualties of the Japanese army in Nanjing.
The Japanese army was originally a brutal and ruthless group, and they suffered heavy losses in the Battle of Nanjing, so when the generals who fought in the Battle of Nanjing retreated one after another, leaving behind a group of helpless people.
They began to carry out crazy revenge, launching a bloody massacre in Nanjing, and even more wanted to express their contempt for the Chinese in this way and suppress the resistance of the Chinese people.
And these, Chu Wenli naturally had no way to know, and even in Chu Wenli's heart, Tang Shengzhi ordered to defend Nanjing, coupled with the defense of more than 100,000 soldiers by the people, the situation in Nanjing may not be as bad as everyone thinks.
Only when you lose it can you know how to cherish it, and maybe only when it has happened can you know the pain and regret!
Han Xin regained his senses, and took the initiative to open the topic: "Brother Chu, Commander Xu, and Commander Chang, this place in Wuhu is by no means the first line after the start of the battlefield, I am going to take the troops through Yicheng and Guangde, and then march to Changxing, where I will help defend against the Japanese attack, I don't know what to do?"
