The officers and men of the Ninth Route Army went forward and fought back swiftly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 In the end, the Japanese army was defeated and successfully cut off the passage of more than 3,000 remnants to retreat to the Japanese Concession. It has caused great tension in Europe and the United States.

Before the Japanese army and the concession authorities could react, the commander of the Fifth Army, General Zhang Zhizhong, gave an order, the artillery fired in unison, and nine 75 field guns launched a five-minute fierce artillery bombardment of the central area of the Japanese concession. Flames erupted, and dozens of expatriates were killed on the spot. More than 100 houses were on fire, and he finally experienced the pain of the war on civilians.

The sound of the cannon just stopped. Good news immediately came from the Jiangbei battlefield, and the officers and men of the two brigades of the Independent Division quickly routed more than 2,500 Japanese troops. Twelve Japanese artillery pieces and eight automobiles were blown up, more than 800 Japanese long and short guns were captured, 57 Japanese officers and soldiers were captured, and before the Japanese planes bombed, they quickly withdrew from the battlefield and retreated deep into the area around Nanyaotou to the west. The civilian deaths and the destruction of houses caused by the bombing were all faithfully recorded by the war correspondents of the Central News Agency.

When the good news came out, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, and the citizens of Shanghai were excited and jubilant, and countless people set off firecrackers. Various clubs beat gongs and drums, and young students cheered along the streets, celebrating in various ways another great victory of the heroic officers and soldiers of the 19th Route Army.

There was also a cheer in the Nanjing headquarters, Chiang Kai-shek's hanging heart finally quietly relaxed, but the side effects of the shelling of the Japanese concession made him worry about Zhong Zhong, he knew that since Zhang Zhizhong, who was calm and generous and had always taken the overall situation into account, could give such an order, it must be the battlefield situation that forced Zhang Zhizhong to make this difficult choice, judging from the results obtained so far, this shelling was very worthwhile, not only showing the army's firm determination to move forward bravely and even break the boat. Moreover, it dealt a great blow to the arrogance of the Japanese aggressors, showed the people of the whole world the strong determination of the squadron to fight to the end without fear, and played a tremendous role in inspiring the morale of the army and the people.

Chiang Kai-shek's atmosphere has just come out. The dispute between the generals of the headquarters and the central officials immediately arose, and as soon as the network was reached, Chen Cheng, who had returned from Xijiang to attend the meeting, heard his political opponent He Yingqin scolding An Yi for being grandiose and ignoring the overall situation, so angry that he immediately slapped the table and scolded He Yingqin for being cowardly as a mouse, not a thing, and several allies of He Yingqin were not happy, and immediately jumped up to besiege Chen Cheng, and the venue became noisy

Gu Zhenglun, the commander of the military police who had just been commended by the Military Commission for quickly cracking the Japanese spy case, saw that this was okay, and the front-line soldiers united as one to achieve such good results, and there were still people pulling their hind legs behind their backs, which was unbearable, and immediately wanted to reason with He Yingqin and others, but before he could come out, Chen Shuming had already pointed to He Yingqin's nose and asked excitedly if he wanted to be a Qin bolt, He Yaozu couldn't help but feel angry for An Yi, and the venue where the net was still full of laughter suddenly roared. The scolding continued, Chiang Kai-shek couldn't even stop drinking, so angry that he grabbed the teacup in front of him and slammed it to the ground, and everyone slowly calmed down.

Who knew that Huang Xie, who left the negotiation team because of accusations from all walks of life, relied on his status as a veteran and Chairman Jiang's status as a righteous brother, and said loudly in a silence: The address of this site has been changed to Xia: Liaolian Cave Peng Chat Embedding Please Deng 6 Yuan Reading

"The successive victories in the Honghu and Jiangbei battlefields are indeed encouraging, and it does make many people raise their eyebrows, but have you thought about it carefully, how will our government departments deal with the huge negative impact of the shelling of the Japanese concession? Will the friends of Europe and the United States change their stance of favoring our country and sympathizing with our people, so as to escalate the war and aggravate the humanitarian disaster? Will the French seize this opportunity to move closer to Japan, or even form an alliance into the war? Hello everyone."

"It's complete nonsense!"

Chen Shuming angrily interrupted Huang Gao's words: "The Japanese invaders have been killing people and setting fire to our country for a long time, but you look at the righteous resistance of our soldiers with such absurd so-called friends and so-called humanity, in the final analysis, it is still the cowardice in the bones of some people and the harm of slaves for thousands of years!"

Do you remember that? Before the war, in the face of the threat and clamor of the Japanese army, how many generals in the army and how many high-ranking officials of various government ministries were panicked and desperate, how many people disregarded the interests of the country and the nation, hurriedly relocated and fled from Shanghai and Nanjing, and how many people opened their mouths and closed their mouths but could not resist and were bound to lose. But what about today?

Let's open our eyes and take a good look, when has the Chinese team been so united and achieved such brilliant results in the past 100 years? When did the Chinese have the eyebrows they have today? All in one? The brothers of the 19th Route Army, the 100,000 soldiers of the 24th Army and the 5th Army defended the dignity of the country and the nation with their blood and lives. You're demolishing the stage! Fighting our soldiers. In defiling our spirits! You, you're already scared

"You are presumptuous!"

"What do you say? Who doesn't have a backbone, you make it clear"

"Rough and reckless! Deficiencies and conspiracy"

Chiang Kai-shek's face was blue with anger, looking at the chaotic venue again, Huo Ran stood up, grabbed the documents in front of him, turned around and strode away, Yang Jie, Ge Jingen and others were so frightened that their faces changed greatly, and they picked up their briefcases one after another. Hurriedly chased out.

Five hours passed. In addition to the Japanese minister and his consular embassy officials clamoring for redoubling their revenge. Instead of the reproaches and pressures feared by Chiang Kai-shek and the cowardly civilian officials, the European and American countries, including France, quickly took the initiative to contact the Central Military Commission and various ministries of the central government in Nanjing, expressed their concerns and worries, and explicitly promised to take immediate action to form a powerful, efficient, and pragmatic joint group to bring about the armistice talks between China and Japan as soon as possible with the greatest sincerity and a fair and fair stand. Sincere consultations and exchanges were held on the situation in Honghu.

When Chiang Kai-shek saw such a gratifying situation, he was surprised and made up his mind, and immediately met with the envoys of the United States, Britain, Italy, and France with unprecedented efficiency, and even had a lot more confidence in his speech.

After more than two hours of repeated deliberations, Chiang Kai-shek finally selected Gu Weijun, Guo Taiqi, and others as representatives, and immediately rushed to Shanghai to join Luo Wengan, Zhang Qun, and Wu Tiecheng to attend the armistice talks presided over by the ministers of Europe and the United States.

After the meeting. Chiang Kai-shek left the Chen brothers and Yang Yongtai behind to have secret discussions with the three of them, and when they returned to bed, it was already three o'clock in the morning. However, Chiang Kai-shek tossed and turned in the dead of night, unable to sleep, and finally simply stared at the ceiling, until dawn Chiang Kai-shek's bloodshot eyes still did not close, so that Song Meiling did not know what was going on, and asked for comfort again and again.

The next morning. The ambassadors of Britain, the United States, France, and Italy respectively notified the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs that for the first time explicitly demanded that the Japanese troops not be allowed to board in the Shanghai Concession.6 Otherwise, severe sanctions would be imposed; In the face of the anti-French rhetoric shouted by hundreds of thousands of citizens in Shanghai during the celebratory procession, the officials of the French Embassy in Shanghai finally stood up and promised that the French Concession would become a stable and just place where any armed force, including the Japanese army, would be allowed to enter and pass through. Twenty-six banks in Shanghai organized a joint preparatory committee. Raised 50 million yuan, issued bonds, and raised funds for the Nanjing government.

Twenty-eighth. The four-nation joint group, headed by British Navy Commander Kelly, held a conference to mediate the war in Shanghai. He met with Zhuoben's minister to China, the commander of the army, and the Chinese representatives Gu Weijun, Guo Taiqi, Zhang Qun, and Wu Tiecheng on the British ship Gantt and began to negotiate the terms of the armistice.

Meanwhile. Inside and outside the open station of the headquarters of the 19th Route Army, there were crowds of people, and thousands of Shanghai citizens and young students flocked to the station, and piles of condolences and donations for the War of Resistance were handed over to Cai Tingcuo and other generals, and Cai Tingcuo and other generals who were extremely grateful called more than 700 soldiers who had performed outstanding and brave combat exploits in several battles, and expressed their heartfelt thanks to the excited representatives and people from all walks of life, showing their determination to resist the war to the end.

At the strong request of more than 100 reporters and representatives from all walks of life, Cai Tingcuo, Ou Shounian, Tan Qixiu, and others successively delivered exciting speeches and made firm promises that brought tears to the eyes of Shanghai citizens and people from all walks of life.

A troop convoy slowly drove from north to south, and An Yi in the car saw the front three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry in front of the 19th Route Army Headquarters, as well as the people who were pressed by the black, and immediately understood the purpose of Weng Zhaoheng and Zhang Zhizhong's insistence on pulling him here. Early this morning, a secret telegram from Nanjing arrived in An Yi's hands, and after reading the telegram, An Yi wandered alone in the grove outside the headquarters for half an hour, and finally walked out of the woods very calmly under the worried eyes of the brothers, and began to discuss the situation of the Fifth Army and the Jiangbei battlefield without saying a word, until Weng Zhaoheng and Zhang Zhizhong arrived and pulled him out. He was also communicating with Xia Jian and others of the 39th Division on positional defense and fortification construction

The convoy turned a corner and stopped at the back door of the headquarters, An Yi followed Weng Zhaoheng and Zhang Zhi and others to stride through the small backyard and enter the middle hall.

Surrounded by the generals and colonies of the 19th Route Army, An Yi and Zhang Zhizhong climbed onto a high platform temporarily built with a table, saluted and greeted Cai Tingcuo and others, and then turned to nearly 10,000 cheering soldiers and civilians. Solemnly saluted, more than 100 reporters in front of the stage competed for each other, crowded, and all of them wanted to take precious photos of the generals of the three armed forces gathered together.

At the warm invitation of Cai Tingcuo and other generals, the mild-mannered General Zhang Zhizhong made a brief speech in the face of the thunderous applause of the people, and in a few sentences he expounded the army's determination to overcome all difficulties and resist the war to the end, and ushered in overwhelming applause and cheers from the military and the people of the audience.

Zhang Zhizhong bowed and retreated humbly, and An Yi, who was unprepared and preoccupied, was finally invited to the front.

"Fathers, brothers and sisters, just now I heard a few voices with different accents, so I specially inquired, those four young friends are all from the Northeast. Full of grief and indignation, they traveled thousands of miles from Shenyang to Shanghai in order to see with their own eyes the officers and men of the 19th Route Army who bravely fought against the Japanese invaders, and they were all very excited. When they talked to me, they all shed tears, but I know that these are not only tears of emotion, but also tears of grievance and pain shed by the loss of the land and the trampling of dignity. Listen to my command: Stand up and salute"

More than 2,000 officers and men who served as guards and guards, and more than 700 honorary officers and soldiers who were wrapped in bandages, were joined by more than a dozen generals on the stage. Salute the four young students from Shenyang, who were so moved that they hid their faces and wept. Unable to stand, this violent fluctuation of emotions quickly spread, causing the audience to mourn.

"Take a break after the ceremony!"

An Yi put down his hand. Glancing around the audience, he swallowed hard and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the reason why our soldiers have such determination, and why we have such glory and pride today, is entirely due to our people, and it is precisely because of countless kind and unyielding people that we have our courage and strength, and can inspire all soldiers to defend their homes and the country. Since the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in Honghu, heroes have emerged one after another, both the military and the people. This is the pride of our army, the pride of China, and the pride of the nation! ”

The applause rang out and lasted for a long time, and An Yi waved his hand to signal everyone to stop. raised his voice: "Here I want to say something to everyone present, an old friend in the Nanjing shopping mall asked me before the war, the squadron is all pulled into the battlefield, how many days can it withstand the powerful Japanese army?" I was very sad at the time, and I didn't know how to answer for a while when I heard this, and then I told him that you knew me An Yi three years ago, and at that time, can you guess that I An Yi became the deputy chief of staff of the whole army before he was twenty-five years old? He was stunned for a long time, shook his head and smiled, and then stopped asking.

The audience burst into laughter. This miracle of joy and sorrow quickly changed in An Yi's few words, which made Cai Tingcuo and Zhang Zhi on the stage sigh. Cai Tingcuo quietly asked Zhang Zhizhong how An Yi had such good eloquence? Zhang Zhizhong smiled and replied that he had taught at the Central Military Academy for several years, and he was often like this.

An Yi didn't laugh. In fact, at that time, I did not blame my pessimistic old friend at all, because our nation has suffered too much in the past hundred years, one shame after another has been nailed to the backbone of the entire Chinese people, since the Opium War has not straightened up the waist, and in the late Qing Dynasty and the early years of the Republic of China, it has been in a miserable situation from which it will never recover, and the people have not even had enough to eat, they cannot wear warm clothes, and they live under the iron hooves of the imperialist powers all day. I also have to suffer from the cunning and brutal humiliation of the divided warlords one by one, just imagine, in such a dire situation, how many people are not pessimistic and disappointed? Such a tragic day is extremely familiar to everyone present, not to mention that the corpses that have fallen in the streets and alleys of Shanghai since the beginning of winter can make us numb in the sinking. ”

An Yi paused slightly, this time there was no applause, no cheers, the audience was surprisingly silent, his face was full of pain and shame, An Yi's voice suddenly sounded:

"Why? Why is that? Today, I will tell you the reason, if you are divided, you will be poor, and if you are poor, you will be beaten! A country divided is a lamb to the slaughter, a hopeless people. will be timid and afraid, be alone, and even traitors will run rampant and shoot wolves!

But now I want to tell you, the people of the whole country, that such days are gone forever! From everyone's face today, I see the hope of national awakening, and from the body of our 19th Route Army and the enthusiastic soldiers of the whole army, I see the backbone of the nation! From one of us. In the battles that have defeated the Japanese invaders again and again in the past few months, our army has undergone radical changes, and our people have gradually established the confidence that they will win; although the road ahead is full of thorns and bumpy and rugged, we will not be timid, let alone spare our short lives, for the rise of the nation, for the rejuvenation of China, we revolutionary soldiers will fight without hesitation, and it is the pride of our soldiers' existence to throw their heads and shed their blood!

Fathers and fellow villagers. Brothers in the whole army, we have now realized what dignity is, and this precious, long-lost dignity depends on us sacrificing our lives and forgetting to die! Once you have it, you will never lose it, never." The new address of this site has been changed to: Foot Union Concave Peng Inlay Please Deng 6 Yuan Reading

The audience applauded. With tears in the eyes of the soldiers and civilians, An Yi saluted and slowly retreated, turned around and jumped off the high platform. Strode into the lobby. Quietly wiped away the tears of grief and indignation on his face during the march,
