Chapter 928: Traveling to Chongqing
"Division Commander Sun, this time the Eighth Route Army in Wutai County and the Japanese troops in a decisive battle, according to our understanding, this is not the combat style of the Eighth Route Army troops at all, may I ask why your Eighth Route Army troops made such a decision, does this mean that the Eighth Route Army troops will change their tactics in the future and use positional warfare to deal with the Japanese troops?"
"Division Commander Sun, the Honorary Second Division originally had six regiments, but after the war, the Military Commission canceled the number of the Honorary Second Division, it is said that this has something to do with Commander Sun's disobedience, Commander Sun, did you disobey the military order when you fought in Wutai County?"
"Division Commander Sun, the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese troops fought a decisive battle with the Japanese troops in Wutai County, but there were no troops in the second theater to support your Eighth Route Army in the battle, what do you think about this matter, do you think our China can defeat Japan?"
The reporters asked Sun Weiguo to come to the stage for an interview, Yan Xishan went down with a cold face, and Sun Weiguo came to the stage. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
When Sun Weiguo came to the stage, the reporters asked questions one after another, and they all looked at Sun Weiguo, waiting for Sun Weiguo to answer.
Some reporters immediately took out their cameras, and they began to take pictures of Sun Weiguo.
It is rare for Sun Weiguo to wear a formal major general's uniform today, and it is rare for him to wear a pair of leather shoes under his feet.
With the military uniform set off, Sun Weiguo's young appearance attracted the attention of many female reporters, and these female reporters couldn't help but start talking softly.
They have interviewed many generals before, but they have never seen such a young general, especially Sun Weiguo's masculine and handsome cheeks, which made many female reporters look at it non-stop, and many reporters hurriedly took out their cameras to take pictures of Sun Weiguo.
For reporters' questions, Sun Weiguo answered them one by one, and he answered them in detail, while the reporters recorded quietly.
Time passed in silence, and in the blink of an eye, it was just over one o'clock in the afternoon, and Sun Weiguo's interview was over.
After leaving the sight of the reporters, Sun Weiguo found Tang Chunhua, he talked to Tang Chunhua, and then left here.
Sun Weiguo didn't greet Yan Xishan face-to-face, he didn't want to continue to listen to Yan Xishan's wooing words.
At two o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, Sun Weiguo left the press conference of the Second War Zone Governor's Department, and he took a car to the Yellow River crossing.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Sun Weiguo and his entourage began to cross the Yellow River by boat to Shaanxi, and after arriving at the border of Shaanxi, Sun Weiguo went directly to Xi'an, and then took a plane to Chongqing.
On October 18, 1938, on Sun Weiguo's way to Chongqing, the commander of the First Army of the North China Front, Umezu Mijiro, was transferred from the post of commander of the First Army, and he went to serve in the Kwantung Army, and was replaced by Lieutenant General Yoshio Shinozuka.
It was also on this day that the North China Front Army received an order from the base camp that the independent Second Brigade and other units that were encircled and annihilated by Sun Weiguo would be reorganized, and these reorganized troops would strengthen their weapons and personnel so that they could undertake intensive combat missions, and as the Battle of Wuhan was about to end, the base camp asked the North China Front Army to enter a period of recuperation, and after the troops were rested, they would carry out a sweep of the occupied areas and completely annihilate the troops of the Eighth Route Army.
On 20 October, Sun Weiguo arrived in Chongqing by plane, and as soon as Sun Weiguo arrived at the Chongqing airport, the Central Military Commission immediately sent a telegram to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army in the Second Theater, which demanded that the troops of the Eighth Route Army hand over the trophies captured in the battle in Wutai County; at the same time, the Central Military Commission demanded that the troops of the newly formed First Division be assigned to the battle sequence of the Ninth Theater, and the Central Military Commission demanded that the troops of the newly formed First Division immediately go to Fuzhou, Jiangxi Province to rest and wait for their duties after receiving the order.
The Eighth Route Army did not reply to this order of the Military Commission for the time being, and the biggest gain of the Eighth Route Army in this Wutai County operation was that a large number of weapons and ammunition were seized.
These weapons and ammunition are extremely lacking for the troops of the Eighth Route Army, and at present the weapons and ammunition have begun to be distributed to various troops, and now the Military Commission wants these weapons, and the Eighth Route Army will definitely not be able to take them out, not to mention that the Military Commission rarely issues weapons to the troops of the Eighth Route Army, and now they are asking for trophies with the troops of the Eighth Route Army, and the Eighth Route Army will naturally not agree.
At this time in Chongqing, the Eighth Route Army's office in Chongqing was here, and after Sun Weiguo and his party got off the plane, they took the lead here.
After coming to the office, Sun Weiguo met the famous prime minister known to everyone in later generations, that is, Vice Minister Zhou of the Political Department.
"Vice Minister Zhou." After coming to Vice Minister Zhou, Sun Weiguo stood up straight, and he saluted Vice Minister Zhou with a very standard military salute.
Vice Minister Zhou smiled and nodded, he came directly to Sun Weiguo and held Sun Weiguo's right hand.
"I've heard Mr. Zhu say a long time ago, your Sun Weiguo is the youngest general of our Eighth Route Army, and when I saw him today, Mr. Zhu always didn't lie. I know you, Wutai County fought well in this operation, showing the military prestige of our Eighth Route Army, and even more so the morale of our Chinese anti-Japanese soldiers. ”
Vice Minister Zhou said with a smile on his face that he praised Sun Weiguo.
Sun Weiguo had a modest smile on his face for Vice Minister Zhou's compliment, and before he could say anything, Vice Minister Zhou handed over a telegram to Sun Weiguo.
After Sun Weiguo took the telegram and read it carefully, a solemn expression appeared on his face.
"Vice Minister Zhou, what does the head of the headquarters mean?" Sun Weiguo looked at Vice Minister Zhou and said.
"Come and see." Vice Minister Zhou took Sun Weiguo to the map, and he pointed to the location of Fuzhou, Jiangxi.
"At present, Wuhan has been lost, in the previous Wuhan operation, the Japanese army attacked Nanchang, Jiangxi and did not succeed, but the Japanese army will never give up, the chairman and the head of the headquarters judged, the Japanese army in Wuhan will definitely move to Nanchang, this time the military commission will transfer your troops to this house in Fuzhou, the meaning is already obvious. The chairman and the head of the headquarters have studied that your division can be transferred out of the second theater of operations, but we must strive for some conditions, and I think the chairman of the committee will agree to this time. ”
Vice Minister Zhou pointed to the location of Fuzhou, Jiangxi, and he pointed to the location of Nanchang, which is not very far from Fuzhou, and said in a solemn tone.
Obviously, the chairman in Yan'an and the head of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army decided to transfer Sun Weiguo's division out of the Second War Zone.
"I obey the order, please rest assured that no matter where the troops are, whether it is the newly formed first division or the honorary second division, we will always be the troops of the Eighth Route Army, no matter where we fight devils, we will not embarrass the Eighth Route Army."
Sun Weiguo saluted Vice Minister Zhou, and he said with a serious expression.
From the bottom of his heart, Sun Weiguo was reluctant to leave the Second War Zone, which was the base of the Eighth Route Army and the place where Sun Weiguo was like a fish in water.
But Sun Weiguo knew very well that a soldier is to obey orders as his duty, and he could not refuse the orders of his superiors.
