When Captain Hashiguchi's Type 96 carrier-based fighter plane flew over Jinshanwei again, it swept past the black smoke from the fires on several transport ships, and saw only the Natori number trapped in the minefield and the bottom of the Ashigara -- this 10,000-ton ship was tilted at first, then flipped over and then flipped over the side buckle, and now only the bottom of the ship is exposed. At this time, the 4th Fleet was withdrawn to a distance of 2 www.biquge.info 0 kilometers from the coastline, and all the army soldiers on board the warships were sent to the nearby Yehuangpan Island, and even two seriously injured destroyers ran aground in the shallow waters near the island. What was once the 4th Fleet, the former 10th Army, is now left with a messy fleet, only soldiers who are soaked and shivering in the cold wind.

However, no matter how embarrassed these people were, they were better than the soldiers of the Kunisaki Detachment and the 18th Division who had landed in Jinshanwei before. Batteries No. 1 and No. 2 had ceased fire, except for batteries No. 3 and No. 4, which were pouring shells on them. These soldiers, who did not have heavy firepower, could only crouch in clusters in the craters blown up by the enemy artillery. Attacking is no longer an extravagant hope, from officers to men, all they think about is how to break through. Under the rapid landing of the Japanese army and navy, critters were dropping bombs on the artillery battery, but the anti-aircraft fire near the battery was as dense as the battle of Jiangyin two months earlier. As the planes roared, the batteries were bombarded and fired unscathed at the beach, each shell carrying countless Imperial soldiers.

The whole army of the 10th Army is shattered! After throwing the 250-kilogram bomb under the belly of the plane, Hashiguchi thought so.

"Extra! Extra! Jinshanwei victory! Jinshanwei victory! ...... "I can't wait for tomorrow, at ten o'clock in the morning, the national government will release a good news of the Anti-Japanese War - the army and navy won a great victory in Jinshanwei, the steel army was annihilated, and the hungry wolf was killed!" As a result, the newspaper that received the press release immediately issued a good news number, hoping to save the image of the government and the loss of land and boost the morale of the army and the people.

"Extra! Extra! Jinshanwei victory! Jinshanwei victory! The steel army was annihilated, and the hungry wolf was ......" from Nanshi to the Public Concession, to the French Concession, and even to the front line north of Suzhou Creek.

"Hey, let's have an extra number." On Nicheng Bridge Road, Jiang Xiuyu heard the sound of the newsboy calling to buy as soon as she got off the rickshaw. When she had finished coming down, a crowd surrounded the newsboy, shouting for a copy. The man in the suit who got the newspaper jumped and ran away a few steps before he began to read the newspaper, and the older long-shirted customer was squeezed a few times, but he didn't care about the recklessness of the young man. When they got the newspaper, they chanted aloud instead of reading it: "Since the rise of the army, several cities have been lost, the sacrifices of soldiers have been split, and the compatriots have suffered a heavy calamity, and the pain of great suffering has been terrible." Thanks to the sacrifices of the soldiers in front of us and the joint efforts of our compatriots in the rear, the steel army was annihilated, the hungry wolf was killed, mountains were captured, and the corpses of the enemy were all over the sea......"

"Give me a copy!" Jiang Xiuyu's house is in the north, where it has fallen. Afraid that the newspaper would be sold out, she threw herself in and stuffed a handful of copper dollars into the newsboy, grabbed a newspaper and left. The number in my hand is like a delicious and expensive Western chocolate candy, I can't bear to look down after reading a paragraph, and I want to see it again after I have gone for a while, and then I read the next paragraph.

Mud City Bridge is a hospital for wounded soldiers set up by the YMCA and has housed hundreds of soldiers. Wounded soldiers. Inspired by God and Pastor Anderson, many members of the YMCA volunteered to serve here, and Xu Peipei, who took time off from home to rest at the record company, was one of them. Although she doesn't know how to care, she can do some paperwork.

"Pepe, country. The military is victorious, and the country is victorious. The army has won a great victory......" Jiang Xiuyu laughed and shouted as soon as she saw Xu Peipei, but before she finished speaking, the firecrackers outside rang off, this must be someone wishing Jie.

"Did you really win?" Xu Peipei, who was seven months pregnant, came back to her senses from the account book, and she had heard too much bad news in the past three months.

"Of course we won! The navy sank several Japanese warships. Jiang Xiuyu waved the trumpet in her hand. Speaking of 'navy', she still had a smile, and she felt that Xu Peipei's life was really good. met a promising naval officer, became a big wife in a few months, and her records were out of stock, the only flaw was that she was about to give birth and did not marry the man, but this was not a problem - once she happened to see a letter from Germany, it was really ......, sincere, and she would not marry.

"I'll see, I'll see." Xu Peipei also laughed when she heard the navy, she had never paid attention to the navy before, but now she knew what was called a submarine, what was an aircraft carrier, what was a battleship, a cruiser, and a destroyer; She even tried to see if she could finish reading the "Powerful Ninety-Three Acid Torpedo Fu" by Dry Bone Sang in one breath - "The officers and men of the Mine Combat Team of the United Fleet, who have undergone day and night devil training before the war, can count the stars in the vast universe during the day with the naked eye, and any enemy water target that is included in the field of vision has been stamped with a death seal...... And the clusters of brilliant death fireworks that rose into the sky turned into a supernatural Mi ghost Ying beast to go to Amaterasu to be baptized in front of the Amaterasu Okami, and the eternal lamp of the underworld of repentance illuminated the dark and obscure spiritual abyss of every Mi Ying officer and soldier. Anyway, she likes what Xianggong likes, and she hates what she hates.

"Don't show it, don't show it......" The two women frolicked. But no one wanted a few wounded soldiers covered in gauze and staggering to appear in the corridors, shouting to every room: "Brothers, great victory! We've got a big win!! ”

There was chaos in the ward immediately, and everyone had heard the sound of firecrackers, but now when it comes to the great victory, those who can get up and those who can't get up want to get up and come out to see where the victory is.

The doctors and nurses were foreigners who did not understand Chinese, and the rest of the people who came to help were young people from the YMCA, and they didn't know how to persuade this group of wounded soldiers to return to the ward. Seeing that everyone was anxious, Jiang Xiuyu smiled at Xu Peipei, as if to say, 'Look at me'. She walked to the corridor, raised the newspaper in her hand, and said in a loud voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, our army has won a great victory, but please go back to the ward first, and I will read the newspaper to you when you come back." ”

The wounded soldiers just couldn't lie down when they heard the news of the victory, and now there was a fashionably dressed young lady who said that she would read the newspaper to herself, and immediately went back with excitement, only a few anxious people stood beside Jiang Xiuyu and waited. Great victory! What two touching words! These two words filled all the radios and wires in an hour after 10 a.m., and they were sent from Nanjing to the whole country and the world. Every Chinese son and daughter who heard these two words was extremely excited, they yelled, they ran to tell each other, they cried and made a fuss......

Only Lieutenant Colonel Li Kongrong, who was in Berlin, Germany, did not react to this. He had long known the Admiralty's plan, but he didn't expect the Japanese to be so stupid and arrogant when they landed, and only sent a heavy patrol as the flagship, if the Japanese Navy had a battleship at that time, even if it was a fourteen-inch main gun of King Kong, Fuso, and Ise, they could suppress their own batteries and rescue some more soldiers. But history does not assume that for China, where the navy was completely destroyed, they sent a heavy patrol like the Ashigara and an old ship like the Yun, which they could already afford.

What is there to be happy about? The Japanese will definitely be annoyed and angry when they are hit hard by this, and the victory of Jinshanwei is just an accident, capsizing in the gutter, and with the urine sex that the middle two cannot afford to lose, they will definitely shout 'punish the tyranny' again.

"Hansheng is a navy, what do you think of this victory?" In an apartment on the outskirts of Berlin, Jiang Baili looked at Li Kongrong in front of him and asked.

As Chang Kaishen's special envoy, he was already preparing to stay in Berlin for a long time, and at this time China and Japan were secretly mediating through Germany, and his work was of great importance. However, Lieutenant Colonel Li Kongrong secretly scolded him. Mom is really a day. It's a dog' - because of that performance in the Prime Minister's Office, Jiang Baili immediately looked at him, which may be a good thing, but his little wife is seven months pregnant, and she will give birth in less than two months, but the two have not yet married!

He wanted to take a short vacation for a month, fly back, and return to China to tie the knot, but the Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not agree, and Foreign Minister Wang Chonghui still said in the telegram: "This mediation is extremely important, and it must not be used for personal expenses." At this time, he regretted becoming a diplomatic attaché, but it was useless to regret it, and the instructions from Nanjing required him to assist Jiang Baili in completing the negotiations with Germany.

If the peace talks are useful, it would be fine, and the current situation is that peace talks are not possible at all. It is impossible for Japan to retreat before the July 7 Incident, and under public opinion inside and outside the world, Chang Kaishen will only step down if he agrees to change the Japanese-occupied zone into a demilitarized zone. Don't look at Chang Kaishen's rogue background, but the gambler is extremely arrogant, and at the same time, in order to dress himself up as a civilized person, what he said on the scene is basically true. The bottom line of the negotiations between China and Japan is that they are fundamentally incompatible, and what to talk about is of little significance except for being able to hold back the perfunctory Germans.

"The navy is also lucky, who knows that the Japanese will hit the muzzle of the gun themselves." Lieutenant Colonel Li Kongrong, the initiator, said lightly. "But it's okay, at least don't worry about the 700,000 troops in Shanghai being defended by the Japanese in a roundabout way, and Nanjing is safe for the time being."

"Can't the Japanese sit down and talk to us?" Jiang Baili asked, and he found that many things Li Kongrong said were things he had never thought about, and he gained something from every conversation. "Didn't the last Songhu War of Resistance last time end up in peace talks?"

"Last time, it was only tens of thousands of people from the 19th Route Army, but now there are more than 100 divisions across the country and millions of people fighting, and this is already a full-scale war of resistance." Li Kongrong said: "According to the past, peace talks must make concessions, and every concession in the past will attract a lot of scolding, but now if you make concessions and compromises, you won't be afraid of mutiny?" ”

"Mutiny?" Jiang Bailiqi, "Whether to fight or not to fight is the strategy of the national government, since everyone is united, how can there be a mutiny?" ”

"What is that Xi'an scene?" Li Kongrong asked with a smile. "It's not a mutiny, it's an incident?" Jiang Baili was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Once the war is suspended, how can the newly recruited soldiers be dismissed?" How to settle wounded soldiers and martyrs? If these are not dealt with properly, they will definitely mutiny. If you continue to fight, these problems will disappear for the time being, and if you don't fight, you will just wait for chaos. ”

After Li Kongrong finished speaking, Jiang Baili thought about it for a while, but he also felt that there was some truth, and he couldn't help but sigh: "But the time is too short, we are not ready yet!" If you can give the government another two years......"

Hearing Jiang Baili's sigh, Li Kongrong didn't speak, this is not something he can say, and since it happened, as a person in the bureau, what he has to consider is how to take the next step.

"In China, it is better to train officers, reform the military system, and transfer factories." He was silent for a moment before speaking.

"Officers are already being trained in China, and factories are also being relocated, but this military system is ......" Jiang Baili looked at Li Kongrong, "Hansheng also has a study on the army military system?" Tell me about it, it's okay if you don't say it well. ”

Jiang Baili looked like a teacher, and Li Kongrong didn't care, what he wanted was the result, so let him pretend to be forced.

"Now the country is a four-regiment square division, but Germany, as a country at the forefront of army tactics, has been reformed into a three-regiment division, that is, a triangular division. In the era of trench warfare in Europe, the block division was not much without shortcomings, but the era of trench warfare is already in the past, and the future wars will be movement warfare. East Asia, a place larger than the whole of Europe, with a population of hundreds of millions, has only a few million troops, and it is a shame to say it. There are few soldiers on the ground, and movement is particularly important, not to mention mules and horses, at least the military system should be changed to a triangular division, so as to facilitate the mobilization of command.

In addition to the military system, we have to talk about officers again. It is already a full-scale war of resistance, so there is no time to train officers in detail, and it is best to train officers in rotation every three months and three months, with a few thousand people in the early stage and tens of thousands in the later stage. This is an officer, and the training of staff officers and technical arms should also be stepped upon. This time, the Japanese Marine Corps command could not be defeated, and those staff officers should actually be shot all. Artillery is also not good, and the measuring equipment and measurement technology are lagging behind the Japanese army, and they can't beat the artillery just by artillery. I'm not talking about training artillerymen, I'm just getting a good grasp of the training of technical arms.

Finally, there is the military industrial system, we should do everything possible to expand and enrich, especially raw materials to find a way to be self-sufficient, now there is foreign aid, but there is always a time when foreign aid is broken, once it is cut off, in the end it can only rely on its own ......"

Li Kongrong couldn't go on talking anymore. What is self-sufficiency? The comprador bureaucrats in the state government can only listen to such words! If they really want to be self-sufficient, what money do they still make? After ten years of compradors, they were unwilling to build factories and mines when they did not know how many years the War of Resistance would last.

Jiang Baili was fascinated when he heard this, he felt that although Li Kongrong was not from the army, he always had his own set of reasons for seeing things, and the triangular division was also implemented in Germany, and France, Britain, the United States and other countries were still square divisions of the four regiments and two brigades.

"Why didn't Hansheng say it?" He asked, smiling.

"Did it work?" Li Kongrong asked rhetorically.

"How do you know it's useless if you don't say it?" Jiang Baili laughed again.

"Well frogs can't speak to the sea, and summer insects can't speak to ice. What is the use of saying it to those who can't do it? Li Kongrong shook his head, he began to feel that Jin Shanwei's victory was not very beneficial to him personally - history has changed, what information else does he sell? (To be continued.) )
