Chapter 226: The Wounded Kwantung Army

When most of the northeast fell, Zhang Shaoshuai, who was close at hand, was still jumping up and down in Jinzhou clamoring for a counterattack, but in fact he was still making all kinds of efforts in the hope of peacefully resolving the Sino-Japanese dispute.

It's a pity that he still doesn't know that the Japanese army has been severely damaged at this time, and the Japanese, who have always held grudges, will not easily negotiate peace with him.

But even if he knew, he wouldn't necessarily have the courage to counterattack, because just when the news of the Kwantung Army in the northeast being heavily damaged and the coastal defense units of the Kwantung Army being bombed by planes reached China.

Although the defenders of Heilongjiang are not strong, they must have come back to their senses after a few days of panic. Many generals of the Northeast Army also began to spontaneously gather troops in several important towns in Heilongjiang, preparing to fight to the death with little Japan.

Seeing that the defenders of Heilongjiang were so tightly defended, the Kwantung Army, which knew that a strong attack would only bring huge casualties, changed its strategy, and the intelligence officers of the Kwantung Army, headed by Doihara and Kawashima Yoshiko, began to have frequent contact with the defenders of Heilongjiang.

After all, in this incident, the Japanese Kwantung Army also suffered such a big loss, and now Heilongjiang's external access has been blocked by the Kwantung Army, and the Kwantung Army hopes to surrender without a fight, and it is best to take Heilongjiang without a single shot.

And after the Japanese headquarters learned that the Kwantung Army and Navy had been severely damaged by unknown troops, they were also thunderous.

The Cabinet once again approved a proposal to increase troops in northeastern China as quickly as possible, and increased investment in the navy and air force.

It seems that the Japanese are determined to continue to run the Tohoku. Major Marshal Zhang's attempt to peacefully resolve the Northeast incident was frustrated.

And the day after 918, when all parts of China got the Japanese occupation of Liaoning, large-scale protests broke out across the country, and spontaneously organized a boycott of Japanese goods.

There are even many radical groups that directly label Zhang Shaoshuai as a traitor. Even Wang Yaqiao, who was far away in the south, sent a telegram to Zhang Shaoshuai, asking him to quickly return to the Northeast with the Northeast Army, otherwise he would personally go to take Zhang Shaoshuai's head. Frightened, Zhang Shaoshuai's head hurt even more.

At the same time, the warlords in various places also issued telegrams one after another, fully supporting the decision of the Nationalist Government, waiting for Commander Chiang's call to go north to reinforce the Northeast Army. Regain lost ground.

It is a pity that the request of these warlords was categorically rejected by Commander Chiang. Commander Chiang, who was at the official residence of the Nationalist Government in Nanjing, scolded while reading the newspaper.

"Niang Xipi, what are you kidding? Who doesn't know, the current Northeast is a piece of fat, how long have I been thinking about Jiang someone? How can I give you a chance to eat a bite of meat quickly? ”

Commander Chiang immediately ordered the main force of the National Revolutionary Army to be removed from the south to seize the land in the northeast, and again a large number of troops of warlords from various places were dispatched to continue to suppress the Communists.

"Didn't you say that in order to resist the Japanese, you were willing to accept my dispatch? Now that I have transferred all the main forces and prepared to fight the Japanese, the small task of suppressing bandits in the south will be handed over to you. Commander Jiang smiled gloomily.

And after these warlords received Commander Chiang's order, they scolded, "Commander Chiang is insidious, he knows how to eat alone, and he is not afraid to eat enough to support such a large territory in the northeast."

It's embarrassing for us to fight with the red bandits, so we won't be fooled? "However, the form that should be taken still has to be taken, at least the opening fee is required.

In addition, when they go to the southern bandit area, they can't really go head-to-head with the red bandits, so they won't be stupid enough to damage their own strength.

When the time comes, if there is a advantage, take advantage of it, and leave if it is not cheap, anyway, your national army has also suppressed it a few times, and it has not exterminated the red bandits, and it is not bad that we have been ineffective in suppressing the bandits this time.

Therefore, when the warlords of all sides in China were deceitful and wanted to preserve each other's strength, the third operation to encircle and suppress the Red Bandits was quickly defeated by the Red Army. The warlords in charge of the encirclement and suppression fled separately.

However, Commander Chiang didn't make these warlords feel good, didn't you fail to defeat the red bandits? Then you can wipe out the common people in the areas occupied by the Red Bandits, right?

Therefore, these warlords received the latest order from Commander Chiang to besiege the Soviet area and prevent a grain of grain and salt from flowing into the Soviet area.

They wanted to trap the Red Army, and it was also at this time that the Red Army defeated the warlords who encircled and suppressed them and increased its territory, but the production and life in the Soviet areas were greatly affected by the years of war.

Not only did the soldiers not have enough food and clothing, but even the common people in the Soviet area lived a life of not having the last meal.

The current Soviet area is even more difficult than in the previous life, and they urgently need foreign food and all kinds of materials, otherwise the common people in the Soviet area will not be able to survive this winter.

And just after Commander Chiang gave the order to go north to reinforce the Northeast Army, they also received the news that Japan had passed to increase troops to the Northeast, and at the same time, a division of Korea had already moved into the Northeast.

Commander Chiang had no choice but to order the troops who had already gone north to postpone their advance and rest on the spot. He wanted to wait and see what the ultimate purpose of the Japanese was.

That is, when the people of the whole country unanimously asked for punishment for Zhang Shaoshuai's loss of power and humiliation of the country, a thunderbolt spread all over the land of China.

That is, there is still an unknown team in the Northeast that is actively resisting Japan. It is said that this unknown team not only wiped out most of the Japanese troops in Shenyang City.

In the end, it occupied the largest military airport in Northeast China, Dongta Airport. I heard that they also flew planes to bomb four Japanese warships and sank an aircraft carrier.

More importantly, they fought fiercely with the Japanese air force in Chinese waters, killing nearly 100 Japanese fighters at a very small cost, and now this group of heroes is flying towards Shanghai with fighter jets. They will lead the whole army into the arms of the national army.

When the news came out, the whole country rejoiced, this is a big victory! This is a great victory that has never been seen before! Even Commander Jiang was excited when he heard the news, and he asked Dai Li to immediately go and find out where this was the troops, and whose troops were they? He must reward them well.

But looking at Dai Li's embarrassed face, Commander Jiang seemed to have a bad premonition. Isn't it our troops' doing?

Dai Li nodded in embarrassment and replied: "I can't say no, but it is not the army that has made great contributions, but the two hundred aviation cadets of the Shenyang branch of Huaxing Airlines."

It was they who first occupied the East Tower Airport of the Northeast Army, then seized all the planes in the airport, and spontaneously attacked the Japanese army.

Moreover, the battle was so brilliant that I had just received a telegram from Li Tie, who told me about the whole battle.

And he also said that he was ready to donate all of the 200 planes snatched from the Northeast Army to our National Revolutionary Army.

And before we are ready to receive airports and personnel, they Huaxing Airlines will provide hangars and ground staff for free.

And all the consumption of these two hundred planes is counted on the head of their Shanghai Huaxing Airlines. ”

When Commander Jiang heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and the unhappiness that Li Tie had just robbed him of the limelight immediately threw out of the clouds.

"It's great. Li Tie is worthy of being a pillar of the country, and I will definitely not treat him badly in the future. Tell me what happened to this battle. ”

Dai Li immediately relayed the war briefing submitted by Li Tie, but under Li Tie's deliberate narration, the more than 200 flight cadets just happened to meet him.

On the night of the explosion in Shenyang, they were having a party with the staff of the Dongta Airport, and later to help the airport guards repel the Japanese attack. This group of flight cadets and the pilots who stayed behind at the airport flew fighter planes to bomb the Japanese troops besieging the Dongta airfield and repelled the Japanese troops.

Then this group of flight trainees who were born calves and were not afraid of tigers simply did not stop doing nothing, and without getting a clear order from the Northeast Army, they not only bombed the Japanese army attacking Shenyang.

They sank four more warships, and on their way to Shanghai, they came across the Japanese aircraft carrier Xianglong, which was unprepared because China and Japan had not yet declared war.

They directly attacked the aircraft carrier again, and even the planes on the aircraft carrier were blown up and sunk to the bottom of the sea. Otherwise, with their mere number of flight cadets, how could they take out hundreds of Japanese fighters? ”

Commander Chiang didn't understand naval warfare, let alone air combat, anyway, he listened to it very reasonably, and he could only say that God bless me with China.

However, those who should be rewarded must be rewarded, but they can't say to the outside world that the students did it, if the people know that it is a group of ordinary people who have made such great achievements, not their national army, then where will the face of their national army go?

Isn't he Li Tie the colonel of our logistics department? I have now appointed him not only as a colonel in the logistics department, but also as the principal of the China Aviation Military Academy in Shanghai.

Li Tie is solely responsible for the school site and personnel, and in addition, hasn't his National Government's Food and Medicine Statistics Section upgraded this bureau?

Give him a formal approval. Let him have the opportunity to go back to Nanjing to report on his work, and you can pick a place in Nanjing for him to choose an official residence for him, and then find an office building for his statistical bureau.

Anyway, it's not a regular yamen, the personnel are hired by him, and the monthly money and food are also distributed by him.

For the sake of his loyalty to the party-state, I will not mix sand into it. Let him do what he wants.

In addition, all the flight cadets of his Huaxing Airlines were automatically converted to students in the military academy, and they were all given the rank of second lieutenant. Wouldn't that solve all the problems?

Besides, they will arrive at Shanghai Huaxing Airlines in the afternoon, and we will immediately publicize it, and at the same time, I will personally go to greet these soldiers who have returned triumphantly.

I'm going to give a speech at the airport, and I'm going to let the whole of China know about it. Their leaders did not forget them, and their national army did not flee without resistance.

It's just that the Northeast Army is really not competitive, and we are still fighting to the death. This will also lay a good mass foundation for the occupation of the Northeast in the future? ”

Commander Chiang immediately arranged for Dai Li to send a telegram to Li Tie, and the two sides should unify their voices. He will go to Shanghai now, and when he arrives in Shanghai, he will greatly reward Li Tie.

Then the Nanjing government immediately hyped up the identity of these heroes flying the planes, and the news that Commander Chiang would personally go to Shanghai Huaxing Airlines to greet the triumphant heroes immediately spread throughout the land of Shenzhou.

Knowing that Commander Chiang was so wise and martial, the common people rushed to tell each other, praising that China had a Commander Chiang, which was really the hope of China and the hope of the Chinese people.

The Chinese people, under the leadership of Commander Chiang, will surely be able to regain the lost territory, drive out the foreign powers, and finally rise in the forest of the world.

When the dignitaries of the Nationalist Government learned that Commander Chiang was going to Shanghai to pay respects to the Huaxing pilots who had returned triumphantly, they also rushed to go.

This is a rare opportunity to show his face, it is a fool not to go, but after a lot of arguments, in the end, He Yingqin, Kong Xiangxi and Song Ziwen got the opportunity to accompany Commander Jiang to condole.

At the moment before he was about to leave for Shanghai, Commander Chiang told Dai Li to send a telegram to Li Tie in Shanghai, asking him to wait for us at Huaxing Airlines, and this time I would reward him with him.
