The third part of the Bloody War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression of the Republic of China, the second chapter, the eighth section of the Jinpu Road Defensive Battle, the southern front

Pin Xian was haunted by the collapse of the 46th Army. When the battle line stabilized a little, he immediately proposed to the theater command to investigate the reasons for the collapse of the Fourth and Sixth Army. Li Zongren couldn't laugh or cry when he received this mountain. The Forty-sixth Army was the Central Army. Dispose of them. It wouldn't work without Lao Jiang's nod. But the problem has been exposed. He had no choice but to bring Zhuang Ji to him and ask him for a solution. Unexpectedly, Zhuang Jihua's attitude was more resolute than Li Pinxian.

"No two words. Strict inspection. This can only be the responsibility of the commander. The battle on Jinpu Road is at a critical juncture. Don't be slight-hearted. Cause the generals to be lax. Zhuang Jihua made his attitude clear as soon as he came up.

"The Cultural Revolution. They are all from Whampoa. The student of the staff chief. Li Zongren smiled bitterly in his heart. These protégés of the Son of Heaven say that they can check it. It's better to press it down for the time being. Give a look at the after-effect treatment. He originally wanted to sell to Zhuang Jihua. Eliminate the separation caused by the use of the Fifth and Eighth Army.

"Dong and Zhou Shimian were both classmates when I was in Whampoa. But now is not the time. If you don't check them. What to do in the future? Zhuang Jihua asked rhetorically. The fifth theater of operations is mostly a motley army. If the matter of the Forty-sixth Army triggers the bone effect. Don't fight the rest of the battle. And. Zhuang Jihua hated the kind of commander who left the army behind after the first battle of Niuxing. The actions of Cheng Qian and Wang Bailing made the First Division almost annihilated. So at the time of the retreat in Nanjing. He repeatedly stressed that commanders at all levels should have a solid grasp of the troops.

"How about you go check it out?" Li Zongren didn't want to be this villain. And his presence may arouse the suspicion of Chiang Kai-shek. from triggering a secret war between the Gui and Yang systems.

Zhuang Jihua was stunned, he thought that Li Zongren would actually propose to let him go. The 46th Army was Chen Cheng's civil engineering department. Although his relationship with Chen Cheng is not good. But they still got past each other, and more importantly, the Japanese army on the northern front had begun to attack Yanzhou. Once Yanzhou is lost. He was going to the Juye area to lead the 49th Army in that assembly area to prepare for a counteroffensive. At this time, go to the southern route .......

Sloppy: "No matter what happened on the Huai River front." This is not the time for a thorough investigation. Fighting is raging on the front. Now go and find out. It will cause confusion for the troops. It's better to wait until you're done with it. In order to prevent the possibility of geostent. You can first send people from the Judge Advocate General's Office of the Theater to go to the southern front with the military police. At the same time, the Duke of De and the Cultural Revolution, your chief and deputy directors jointly issued an order. He said that after the war, it was necessary to strictly investigate the accident on the Huai River front. Warn them. Naturally, they will understand what to do next. ”

Zhuang Jihua and Li Zongren were silent. No doubt. Zu Yi's suggestion should be reasonable, which means that it should be dealt with. But it hangs in the balance. Then these people will not sell their death power in future battles.

"It's been a long time." Seeing that Zhuang Jihua didn't say anything, Li Zongren decided to adopt Xu Zuyi's suggestion and send two people each from the military station and the military justice department of the theater. Together with a company of gendarmes, he went to the southern front. At the same time, the southern line of the text always pointed out that Li Pinxian told a similar thing to happen again. The commander was immediately relieved of his duties on the spot and sent back to Xu for trial.

The squadron retreated. After the news was announced. It caused a stir among the reporters in Xuzhou, and the press conference hall was full of pessimism. Amateur military experts come together to analyze the situation of the war.

“… Once the Huai River defense line is solved by the river behind, the river is far less dangerous than the Huai River, how to defend it? The one who spoke sighed.

"I think Li is still wrong. Li Pinxian is useless. How can you entrust the commander-in-chief of the southern front? ”

"If the southern front collapses because of this, Li Pinxian should be killed to thank the countrymen."

"It seems that Xuzhou may not be able to save it. The southern front is unfavorable. The northern front is no less critical. Itagaki is approaching. The two Japanese armies on the northern front are about to meet under the city of Xuzhou. ”

……

Unlike these people who sigh and sigh. Mei Youlan and Webb and others were plotting to go to the southern front for actual combat interviews. What makes them embarrassed is that it is difficult to approve interview passes. Even Mei Youlan didn't get an interview pass, and even Zhuang Hua refused to help. Let Mei Youlan be indignant.

But it can't be helped. She and Weycharles and the others still planned to go to the southern front. Webb came forward and went directly to the theater propaganda office, and the people in the propaganda office were very polite. When it came to the pass, he resolutely refused. Regardless of Weber's anger or Meyolan's threats, he did not approve it.

This situation made Mei Youlan a little puzzled. In the past, she didn't take the pass as if she was playing. Even the most difficult pass is no problem.

"May. This shows that there is a problem with the southern front. What are they hiding. "Webb is very experienced. He drew conclusions from this series of anomalies. The situation on the Southern Front may not be simple.

"Webb. There's definitely something wrong with that. Charles looked at it with a straight face: "Every time there is a major action." They're all going to block messages. I've been in this situation many times when I've been in Europe. ”

"Then how do you deal with it," Mei Youlan heard that this was normal sense. I don't feel so bad anymore. Interest was immediately drawn here.

"There's no way." Charles spread his hands: "In Europe." If that reporter dares to conduct an interview in private. It will definitely be dealt with seriously. If it's serious, you will go to jail. ”

Weber said, "This is China." ”

Mei Youlan was unhappy: "What's wrong with China?" Can you just run around? ”

Roll your eyes at her. I don't understand why her posture has changed suddenly. Unceremoniously glared at him: "What's wrong?" ”

"May. This is for our common good. Webb said helplessly. Mei Youlan reacted now. She didn't know what to do. Eyes rolled. She came up with a solution.

"Webb. I think we're going to go to General Stilwell. Let him come forward. I said I was going to the southern route. Webb's eyes lit up. There is no one way to solve this problem. Charles also high-fived in agreement. The trio visited Stilwell. Unexpectedly, Stilwell resolutely rejected their suggestion.

Ladies and gentlemen, I am just an observer of American politics. Cannot participate in battles. Does not appear on the battlefield. Not more - plus fighting. ”

"General. It's not about participating in a fight. It will not appear on the battlefield. We're just going to the southern line to have a look. Charles quickly explained.

"Nope. Our actions were approved by the U.S. Embassy, more precisely, by Washington. And the instructions given to me by Washington. As soon as the Japanese army picks up Xuzhou, our observation team must evacuate as soon as possible. Ladies and gentlemen. Don't forget. There is no consulate in Xuzhou. Stilwell was amused. These journalists are whimsical. Use the U.S. government's field observer group as a gunman. Even if the observation team wants to go south. Also go by yourself. I won't bring a press to the ground. How can you journalists stab in the newspapers?

Mei Youlan and the three of them left the US military inspection team very disappointed, and the three of them were bored wandering on the street. Unknowingly, near the commander's headquarters in the war zone, Mei Youlan looked at the strict guards in front of the commander's department. Some sullen suggested going to the headquarters to try again.

Webb and Charles didn't object either. The three of them just arrived at Changbu Shangzhuang Jihua. Mei Youlan hurriedly came over: "Big brother." Where are you going? ”

"I can't tell you this," Jihua said with a smile. Then greet Webb and Charles: "Old Way." Old Cha. How about the news that you have caught lately? ”

"General." Webber was clever. A sad look immediately appeared on him: "You have blocked the news too tightly, and the news we have arrived from the news release official has arrived." You know it's worthless. ”

"How can it be worthless?" Zhuang Jihua is still happy: "Any news is valuable. The key is to keep in mind. ”

Webb's eyes lit up. But then it dimmed again: "Can General Xu keep it?" The southern line has already retreated across the Huai River. ”

"You're not well-informed enough." Zhuang Ji interrupted him: "That was yesterday's news, and today's latest battle report is that the Japanese army retreated across the river, and the forward soldiers conquered Cao Laoji without blood, and approached the Xinmaqiao ferry. Our army has retreated to the defense line of the Jiehe River on all fronts. ”

The three Webers looked at Zhuang Jihua, who looked very happy, in amazement. Mei Youlan had a feeling. That was the feeling that Zhuang Jihua gave her when Nanjing was very critical. Zhuang Jihua was the same at that time. The front line retreated again and again. But he was still elated. It's even a bit of a bit of a pleasure.

Now she knows better that everything on the front line may be a façade. However, Mei Youlan did not speak. Charles was puzzled: "You look happy." Aren't you worried about the situation on the Southern Front? ”

"What's there to worry about" Zhuang Jihua shrugged beautifully: "There is an old Chinese saying. The strong crossbow can't be pierced, and Lu Yutian brought a few divisions with him. Don't give them a place. Can people be satisfied? That's not the case with hospitality. ”

Mei Youlan was a little crying and laughing. Weber asked wittily: "The general thinks that the Japanese are guests." ”

Guest; The two of them are hospitable. Stilwell isn't a bad guy. What about the Japanese. It's a real villain; Hospitality is used to entertain beautiful and evil guests. With bullets though. Zhuang Jihua's expression remained unchanged. But he reminded them in a warning tone: "Both." I know some of the trades of a journalist. Don't write to me in the newspapers. General Zhuang Jihua considered the Japanese to be guests. ”

"Haha!" Webb and Les burst out laughing. Weber secretly scolded this Zhuang Jihua in his heart, it was really slippery.

"Deputy Secretary Zhuang-"

Zhuang Jihua turned his head to look. A staff officer was approaching. Staff Officer Zhuang Jihua saluted in front of him: "Report to the deputy commander." Commander, please hurry to the war room. ”

Zhuang Jihua turned back to Mei and said, "I'm sorry." I still have something. We'll talk about that later. ”

Zhuang Jihua turned around and left. Youlan stopped Wu Ziniu. Pull him to one. Muttered for a long time. Wu Ziniu finally said helplessly: "Stay in Xuzhou." The play in the south is good, though. The drama in the north is even more exciting. Miss. That's all I can say. ”

Mei Youlan was satisfied with Wu Ziniu. to Webb them. Webb watched as she pulled Wu Ziniu aside. After I came back, I didn't mention going to the southern route again. No matter how you ask. Mei Youlan didn't show a hint of speech. Drove Webb mad.

Out of the headquarters gate. Mei Youlan unexpectedly found a familiar figure. This made her wonder a little. The fighting on the northern and southern fronts was fierce. The wounded were numerous. How did she have time to come to Xuzhou?
