Chapter 822: An Early Victory

With Liu Hua, commander-in-chief of the East China Field Army, this is a guarantee for a hot figure both in the country and within the country. Wang Jingwei himself, including all the high-ranking personnel of the entire puppet national government, couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief and let go of his nervous heart. At the same time, I couldn't help but be glad about my original decision.

The reply from the former enemy headquarters of the East China Field Army was circulated in the hands of all the participants at the meeting. Wang Jingwei, the presiding officer of the last high-level meeting of the puppet Nationalist Government, spoke first.

"Ladies and gentlemen, with the assurance of Commander-in-Chief Liu of the East China Field Army, I believe that everyone should also rest assured. However, we still have a lot of things to accomplish next, that is, how to complete the tasks assigned by Commander-in-Chief Liu. ”

"Dean Chen, your Executive Yuan, including all the police stations in the city, must play their part at this moment. It is necessary to ensure the order in the city of Nanjing throughout the battle. The entire city of Nanjing was handed over to the East China Field Army as completely as possible. At the same time, after the city of Nanjing was destroyed, the Japanese expatriates in the city were restrained as much as possible to prevent them from making trouble. Demonstrate our importance to the East China Field Army... ̈ Wang Jingwei first ordered to Dean Chen Gongbo beside him.

"Rest assured, Chairman. Although the combat effectiveness of our troops is not comparable to that of the East China Field Army outside the city. However, I believe that the police force that we have spent a lot of money to build will be not inferior to any police force in the country, and will ensure that the mission will be completed..." Chen Gongbo replied very confidently.

For Chen Gongbo, a confidant for more than ten years, Wang Jingwei still trusts him very much. After nodding his answer with great satisfaction, he ordered to Vice President Zhou Fohai on the other side.

"Dean Zhou, Dean Chen is in charge of security in the city, so the secret service agencies and intelligence systems in the entire city will be handed over to you to be responsible. In the meantime, I have a very important task to give you. This task, when completed, will be of great benefit to you and to all of us..."

Looking at Chairman Wang Jingwei's bright eyes, Zhou Fohai immediately realized that a huge opportunity was in front of him, and if he could grasp this opportunity, it was likely that a huge battle achievement would belong to him. Thinking of this, a hint of sharpness immediately flashed in Zhou Fohai's eyes, and he followed up and asked.

"Chairman, what's the task?"

"Intelligence system. However, it is not our intelligence system, but the intelligence system of the Japanese distributed on the territory of China. We have been working with the Japanese for so long, and we have a certain level of understanding of their intelligence system. And your task now is to find out as much as possible and collect the intelligence network deployed by the Japanese in the main attack territory through these few days, or even dozens of hours, and sort them out. Think about it, after the city of Nanjing is broken, if we give this important intelligence system to the East China Field Army, how will the East China Field Army think of us..."

"Chairman, I understand. Please rest assured, chairman, please rest assured, I will definitely make great preparations for this to the East China Field Army, so that the East China Field Army will be satisfied..."

After listening to Wang Jingwei's explanation, even Zhou Fohai, who has been engaged in the intelligence department and has been in politics for decades, cannot but admire the old spicy chairman in front of him and the accuracy of his view of the problem.

You must know that even if the entire city of Nanjing falls intact into the hands of the East China Field Army, it will only be a superficial phenomenon.

This is because the Japanese intelligence department hidden in Nanjing, and even the Japanese intelligence department hidden in the entire central China region, will inflict huge losses on the East China Field Army, which has just won victory, in the next period of time.

To put it more bluntly, this intelligence system can not only solve the urgent needs of the East China Field Army. In terms of importance, it is no less than an army of 100,000.

Thinking of this, Zhou Fohai's face was immediately shrouded in a blush. In my heart, I also began to think about how to successfully complete this task, which has great benefits for me....

Just as the whole meeting was about to end, an operational staff officer from the General Staff Headquarters rushed in out of breath. Then, under everyone's gaze, he spoke: "Report to the chairman, sir. The latest information from the intelligence department: Under the fierce attack of the East China Field Army outside the city, the last reserve unit of the Japanese Central China Front, that is, the 5,000 recruits that had just been formed, had already been reinforced, in three different directions, in the direction of the three city gates in the southeast and west of Nanjing City 10 minutes ago. So far, only one reinforced brigade garrison remains....."

"So fast... In less than two days, an elite field division of the Japanese army, 30,000 troops were exhausted by the East China Field Army.... It seems that the combat effectiveness of the East China Field Army is really not to be underestimated, and we have chosen the right road to fight against the enemy. Otherwise, even if you die on the battlefield with the Japanese in Nanjing, you can't close your eyes..." After a short period of shock, Wang Jingwei couldn't help but sigh with a long sigh

It turned out that since receiving Wang Jingwei's telegram. Liu Hua gave orders to all combat units on the front line to intensify the offensive. Of course, this kind of strong attack is not an attack regardless of attrition. Instead, it increased the firepower output of the attacking troops, and used intensive firepower to kill and injure a large number of the living forces of the Japanese garrison in the course of the offensive ....

In this way, when the 100,000 troops of the East China Field Army consumed almost half of the ammunition reserves after only two days of fighting. The effect also appeared, and a field division deployed by the Japanese Central China Front on various positions in Nanjing, totaling 30,000 troops, was also almost consumed.

Just when Matsui Ishine drew the last strategic reserve in his hand, a total of 5,000 recruits who had just received weapons. On the entire front, the number of Japanese troops who can continue to fight is less than 10,000. At the same time, many positions in the entire Nanjing city fortifications have been broken through by the East China Field Army. It can be said that the city of Nanjing has reached a critical juncture where it is precarious and may be broken at any time.

As soon as Wang Jingwei's words fell, Chen Gongbo, president of the Executive Yuan, followed closely behind, and said with the same excited face: "Chairman, the time is ripe. You see if we will launch an attack immediately, first take the headquarters of the Japanese Central China Front, and give the Japanese army a center to blossom..."

"That's for sure...." Wang Jingwei replied affirmatively.

"Now in the entire city of Nanjing, there is only one reinforced brigade left in the Japanese army, more than 1,000 people. And we, for all, have three integrated divisions, the first, second, and third divisions. In terms of strength, it has far surpassed the Japanese army. If you don't fight back at this time, you won't have a chance if you wait any longer. Now I order the 1st Division to attack at once, encircle and attack the headquarters of the Japanese Central China Front, and ensure that not a single person escapes the net. As for Matsui Ishone, the commander of the Central China Front of the Japanese Army, I want to see people alive and corpses when I die...."

"The second division, with regiments as units, occupied the grain depots, material warehouses, armory, ammunition depots in the city .... ensure the security of these military installations ...."

"The 3rd Division, with brigades as units, gave up the attack on the three walls of the east, west and south. Cooperate with the East China Field Army from the inside, annihilate all the Japanese puppet troops in the city, and welcome the East China Field Army into the city.......

"All troops, attack in ten minutes, and immediately go and deliver the battle order..."

Ten minutes passed in a blink of an eye, and after being a traitor for several years, today I can finally do it anyway, and tens of thousands of puppet officers and soldiers who have long been ready to attack have exerted their true combat effectiveness in front of the Japanese army for the first time.

In less than a few minutes, the entire headquarters of the Central China Front of the Japanese Army was surrounded by a large number of puppet army troops from all sides. Of course, the artillery of various calibers equipped with the 1st Division was also pushed to the forefront, aiming its own black hole at the office building of the headquarters of the Central China Front of the Japanese Army not far away.

"Da-da-da-da..." Dense gunfire, as the order to attack was given, began to sound in the streets surrounding the headquarters.

A reinforced infantry brigade left around the headquarters, although it was a carefully selected brigade with the strongest combat effectiveness in the entire Central China Front.

However, in the face of the puppet army troops that are several times their own, and in the face of the strong combat effectiveness of the puppet army troops that suddenly burst out. The entire line of defense is still retreating again and again. In less than half an hour of fighting, dense bullets can easily be fired into the office building of the headquarters of the Central China Front of the Japanese army ....

Standing in front of the window, on the street a few hundred meters away in front of you, groups of puppet army troops who were like wolves and tigers, completely disregarding their own lives. After a brief moment of shock, a self-deprecating smile slowly appeared on Admiral Matsui's face.

"Tanaka-kun, I really didn't expect that the puppet army troops, which had always been in front of us, had low combat effectiveness, would be able to burst out with such a powerful combat effectiveness. It seems that all of us, including the entire empire, underestimated the determination of the Chinese to resist the invasion. Today, I have seen the defeat of the Central China Front, and it may not be long before the defeat of the entire Imperial Army is coming..."

"Your Excellency, Commander, perhaps we were wrong when we started this battle. China, the sleeping lion of the whole China, asleep of our invasion, has quietly woken up, and we, as aggressors, are still unaware of it... Your Excellency, Commander, we lost... ̈ "Lieutenant General Tanaka said with a look of despair... ̈-

In the end, with the sound of several crisp gunshots in the headquarters, the commander of the Japanese Central China Front, General Matsui Ishone, the chief of staff, Lieutenant General Tanaka, and a large number of generals who carried Venus on their shoulders, finally all committed suicide in the face of the complete defeat of the Central China Front・・・・・・

The Central China Front of the Japanese Army, along with the departure of Matsui Ishone, has completely become history...... (
