Yesterday, under the leadership of Yin Jinan and his division commander, the remnants of the 24 th Army also drove to Kunshan, transferred to Nanjing, and then returned to southern Sichuan by waterway.

Hu Jialin, deputy commander of the Fifth Army, has not been able to come back to see Zhang Zhizhong because he commanded the independent division to fight the Japanese army on Chongming Island and along the Jiangbei estuary.

After the fierce fighting on 16 July, the Songhu battlefield entered a state of armistice, and only the sound of gunfire and explosions sounded from time to time on Chongming Island; although the oil depot at the newly built airport was completely abandoned, and the operation of the Japanese army's 1,200-odd special brigade to clear out the independent division continued, it was simply unrealistic to search for 500 elite special operations officers in an area of more than 1,000 square kilometers covered with forests and reeds.

The Japanese army had been suffering from headaches for several days, not to mention the accurate cold gun shooting of the snipers, but only the strange traps and mines, which made the Japanese soldiers who searched for them pay a heavy price of 200 dead and wounded, so that the Japanese troops who were ashamed and arrogant had to quietly slow down their pace and be extra careful with every step, and it was too difficult to complete the task of clearing under such circumstances.

In the early morning of 17 July, another patrol gunboat was wounded by six mortar shells fired from the island, and the main guns on the deck were destroyed.

What makes the E Army even more restless is that the main force of the independent division has not been traced so far, and the threat to the channel and passing warships is extremely great, and there is even the possibility of a sudden surprise attack across the river, which makes the Japanese army like a fish in the throat, and the Japanese army is restless One by one, the Japanese army has to defeat the increasing defenders, at present, the only way to detour the line of Liuhekou and Yanglinkou, forcibly climb 6, and occupy the flank of the defenders on the first line of Wusong and Baoshan, can finally drive the defenders out of the Songhu battlefield, and then completely occupy Shanghai, but from the mouth of the Liuhe River to the line of Yanglinkou to climb 6, It is necessary to ensure that it will not be bombarded and harassed by the independent divisions on the front line of Jiangbei, and in particular, it is necessary to completely control Chongming Island, which is holding the shipping lane, otherwise it will be difficult to prevent the hidden dangers and possible losses that exist.

Zhang Zhizhong admired An Yi's layout very much, and with the increase in the number of times that European and American countries sent notes to the government of the Republic of China not to harm the safety of their passing merchant ships and personnel, Zhang Zhizhong could better understand An Yi's good intentions in putting the powerful independent division in Jiangbei, especially the effect of the 500 ↑v continuous operation on Chongming Island, which was enough to make Zhang Zhizhong proud, and he originally did this to An Yi. !!;! ：，，：\&。 "The division can't understand and even the generals who sneer at it have a deep understanding, and finally understand that they are related to; ：。 ,\&"How far is the distance between the upper and outer "Flying Fox Generals" was once again praised for their resourcefulness.

The car stopped in front of the 19th Route Military Academy, An Yi followed Zhang Zhizhong into the headquarters, and more than ten meters away from the entrance of the preparation hall, he heard Tan Qixiu's familiar angry scolding and a string of slapping on the table. Zhang Zhizhong and An Yi looked at each other without stopping, and walked straight to Jiang Guangding, Cai Tingkai and others who greeted the door, and after saluting, they entered the hall and saw that the commanders of all divisions of the 19th Route Army were there, all of them were full of righteous indignation, and their faces were red, and they knew that Cai Ting, who had just returned from the negotiations, did not bring back any good news.

Sitting down with each other, Jiang Guangding shook his head and reported: "Yesterday's negotiations were still calm, and the ministers of Britain, the United States, France, and other countries also demanded at the meeting that Japan stop its large-scale military operations against Shanghai. threatens us to immediately release the Japanese officers and soldiers, expatriates and warships captured in the Yangtze River valley since the beginning of the war, and to compensate for all the losses caused thereby; Wu Mayor Tiecheng also called and said that the Japanese consul general had given him a note with the same request, and it seemed that the Japanese army was ready for a decisive battle.

"Ridiculous! On the way here, General An and I also talked about the possible outcome of the negotiations, but I didn't expect it to be like this, it seems that it will not be possible to fight, and it will be a big fight, and the Japanese will shed the last drop of blood! I don't have any opinions, and I will resolutely accompany them to the end. ”

Zhang Zhizhong still spoke slowly and calmly.

Cai Tingkai said with a sad and indignant face: "The generals in the army really can't stand the rampant Japanese army, and they all demand to take the initiative to attack and strike a hard blow to the arrogance of the Japanese army. We are now very troubled and difficult to choose, whether we must wait until the time limit required by the Japanese army to passively respond to the battle? If our army takes the initiative to attack, will it cause reproach from all sides? ”

Zhang Zhizhong put down his teacup and smiled but did not answer, he knew how the leaders and factions of the central government and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would react, and knew that the differences between the two factions within the Central Military Commission had not been eliminated, and if the 19th Route Army and its own Fifth Army took the initiative to attack during the so-called "armistice talks" presided over by the European and American powers, the political troubles and pressure from all sides would definitely not be small. Zhang Zhizhong, who was middle-of-the-road, did not express his opinion, but looked at An Yi beside him, and Jiang Guangding and other generals also looked at An Yi when they saw this.

"Why do you look at the little brother? Isn't that right? An Yi asked inexplicably.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh softly, the solemn atmosphere was much more relaxed, Ou Shounian and Halberd became more and more familiar with An Yi, calling them brothers and sisters all day long, and immediately laughed and scolded when they saw An Yi pretending to be stupid.

An Yi smiled at this time and suggested: "Fight!" Seize the initiative and immediately announce that you can start fighting at any time! Isn't there a growing number of reporters gathered under the big trees outside the courtyard that are full of hope? It is estimated that they also rushed to find out the news of the breakdown of the negotiations, to satisfy them, and to let the whole world see the tough reaction and firm determination of our army. We also responded in a high-profile manner, threatening the arrogant Japanese, saying that the whole of our army could not bear the rampant Japanese and were filled with righteous indignation, and all units asked for war to be ready to attack the barbaric and despicable Japanese army at any time, which also gave the Japanese a headache.

Now it is different from before, the Japanese army has suffered heavy losses after fighting in the twenties, and has repeatedly used the excuse of negotiation to respite and recuperate, and we certainly dare not despise the words and deeds and attitude of our army, and we also make them angry and nervous, otherwise it is not cost-effective.

Zhang Zhizhong, Jiang Guangding, and Cai Ting{8 immediately knew the meaning of An Yi's words as soon as they heard it, and the other generals did not react so quickly. Jiang Guangding stood up with a smile, and ordered the adjutant to immediately lead the reporter into the courtyard to arrange seats for tea and waiting, and An Yi and Zhang Zhizhong were also invited by Jiang Guangding to go to the side hall for a little discussion, so as to facilitate the unification of the voice.

Ou Shounian walked behind Cai Tingkai in confusion and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?" Shouting a few slogans in the air is over? Will it work? ”

Cai Tingkai frowned, stopped and turned to Ou Shounian, and scolded in a low voice: "Why don't you have a brain?" We shouted to kill, can the bigwigs of the Central Committee and the Military Commission not be in a hurry? They will definitely come to the emergency call to stop us from taking the initiative during this bullshit armistice negotiations, and the responsibility for passively avoiding war is not on us, who should the whole ** people scold? Got it? ”

"But isn't it passive waiting?" Ou Shounian is still unwilling.

Cai Tingkai glared at him: "Stupid! Do you think Xiao Yi can endure this? Don't look at him pretending to be stupid, just now when the Japanese army threatened him to send back all the prisoners of war and the warships and merchant ships that his Anjia army had worked so hard to capture, the anger in his eyes could not be concealed from me, if my expectation is correct, he already has a plan of revenge, and it is likely to be carried out by the independent division special service group that is still fighting the Japanese on Chongming Island!

If you think about it, the original 24th Army and the current Fifth Army, including Xia Jian's 39th Division on the edge of the battlefield, all fought under the name of the 19th Route Army, and any attack on the Japanese army could show the distinct attitude of all the officers and men participating in the war represented by the 19th Route Army. Why didn't they take the initiative to cease the war? Although Chongming Island is not the much-anticipated Songhu battlefield, it is also our sacred land, thanks to the Japanese, even if all the Japanese troops on the island are annihilated, the Japanese can only swallow their anger, but we can make a big publicity, boost the morale of the Chinese people. ”

Ou Shounian suddenly realized: "Xiao Yi's brother is really insidious!" It turned out to be a pig and a tiger, and he didn't let people grasp the handle, and put the blame on those cowards of the Lord and faction, no wonder General Jiansheng, who was known as Little Zhuge , gave him the nickname of 'Flying Fox General', and he was really cunning.

"Got it? In comparison, the gap between you and him is not small! This man is not only talented in military affairs, but also in political progress can be described as leaps and bounds, and he will certainly be able to go further in the future. Fortunately, Xiao Yi is a friend and not an enemy, and he has always gotten along well with our Guangdong army, and this time he has established a deep friendship with various departments of our army, which is a blessing! Take advantage of it......" Cai Tingkai sighed and walked to the side hall.

Fifteen minutes later, Jiang Guangding, Cai Tingkai, and Zhang Zhi-zhong, who were on the steps, successively attacked the Japanese army's unreasonable and arrogant attitude, and politely and politely stated all the atrocities and ugly acts of the Japanese army since the beginning of the war, showing the determination of the 19th Route Army to resolutely resist the war to the end.

When Cai Tingkai announced the anger of the officers and men of the 19th Route Army and the tough stance to be taken, the reporters in the audience were inexplicably excited and cheered.

Kaplan, a sensitive beauty reporter, immediately asked loudly about the identity and position of General Zhang Zhizhong, Zhang Zhizhongcun; He politely replied that he had just been sent to supervise the operations of the military staff officers, and that his temporary position was that of the former enemy.

Powers, a British journalist who had become an old friend of An Yi, immediately stood up and asked loudly: "General An, what is your position now?" Has there been a change? ”

An Yi smiled slightly: "I am still the former chief of the enemy's general staff in the Songhu Theater. Mr. Powers is familiar with the situation of the squadron and should know that under the Songhu Theater Command of our 19th Route Army, there is a general headquarters of the former enemy and the headquarters of each division itself, and the general headquarters of the former enemy has the posts of commander-in-chief and chief of general staff of the former enemy, and exercises operational command under the jurisdiction of the theater headquarters. General Zhang came here in response to the needs of the Songhu battlefield in order to strengthen the command and coordination of the various operational units of the Ninth Route Army and to better destroy the Japanese invaders. ”

Bowers scratched his head and sat down, seemingly understanding but not being able to figure it out, the complicated and unfamiliar name of the command system of the squadron did make many reporters confused about what was going on, and An Yi was also happy to see such a scene, anyway, as long as he knew it, the more confused outsiders were, the better.

German journalist Frank seized the opportunity to ask An Yi a more pointed question: "May I ask General An, General Ueda, the supreme commander of the Japanese military in Shanghai, issued a warning at noon, demanding that the squadron withdraw 20 kilometers from the Songhu battlefield and demolish all military installations, and instructed the squadron to immediately release the Japanese warships, merchant ships, personnel and large sums of property seized along the Yangtze River since the beginning of the war, and demand double compensation for the damage and losses caused to the Japanese army and overseas Chinese, otherwise the war will escalate and the troops will be increased again. Launch an all-round retaliatory attack against China. General An, what is your comment on this? ”

An Yi was annoyed, communicated with Jiang Guangding and Zhang Zhizhong in daylight, and slowly stood up: "Mr. Frank, you asked well!" Ueda's words once again aroused the strong indignation of all the Chinese people, here, I would like to thank Commander Ueda through all journalist friends, his arrogant and ignorant words, my 19th Route Army generals benefited a lot, we commanders only need to convey his words to their own soldiers, there is no need to carry out any pre-war mobilization, the whole army will pour out all the anger on the barbaric and rampant invaders when the war resumes. ”

The reporters chuckled, and An Yi continued: "Ueda's request is ridiculous and rude, and his wild words have made the people of the world and the people of China see a rogue who is alive and well!" Just imagine, the robber smashed the courtyard wall of your house and rushed into the yard of your house to set fire to the destruction and made threats, and the victim resisted in order to protect his life and poor property, and withstood the robber's atrocity, so that the robber's attack was blocked, and he could not continue to kill people and set fire to rob wildly, but at this time the robber brandished a big knife and shouted loudly and shamelessly: tear down the obstacles that stand in your way to me, stop resisting and obediently retreat to the backyard, Give me all the murder weapons and accomplices who committed the crime together that I accidentally picked up in the process of killing you, and double the compensation for all the losses caused by the rain that broke into your yard!

I would like to ask my journalist friends here to ask themselves, which country and nation in the world would be stupid enough to obediently obey the clamor and threat of robbers? What country and nation can endure such naked threats and aggression? What's more, the Chinese nation has stood firm for thousands of years, how can it be possible to retreat in the face of the crazy clamor of the bandits? In my eyes, Ueda is like a mad dog, a mad dog infected with rabies and grinning with his mind, and the Chinese usually greet mad dogs with dog sticks.

The reporters were amazed by An Yi's ruthless attitude, and the Chinese reporters cheered loudly, and when they saw the famous General An Yi's rush to the crown, they only felt drenched in joy, and their hearts were extremely happy.
