Dead. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Nanjing Rest House, Chiang Kai-shek's study.

"An Yi questioned my strategic and tactical arrangements?"

Chiang Kai-shek took a thick stack of telegrams, didn't even look at them, put them on the coffee table in front of him, picked up the Yunnan Pole Pu'er tea that exuded the aroma of Yuanna, took a sip gently, and immediately felt fragrant lips and teeth, and his spirits were lifted.

Chiang Kai-shek, who originally didn't smoke, drink, or drink tea, only drank boiled water on weekdays, but An Yi said that after years of research by Song Jianzhen, the first elder of Wanshou Palace, it was confirmed that long-term drinking of Pu'er tea has various effects such as anti-inflammatory, sterilization, antihypertensive, anti-arteriosclerosis, stomach nourishment, stomach protection, tooth protection, cancer prevention, anti-cancer, and anti-aging. As a result, after An Yi sent five catties of the best Pu'er tea, not only Chiang Kai-shek slowly drank Pu'er tea, but even Song Meiling, who likes to drink coffee, began to change her taste and drink a little fun.

Chen Lifu saw Chiang Kai-shek's careless look, and his heart "chuckled", and he stubbornly admitted: "Yes, third uncle." General Huanzhang, General Wenbai, and General Mo San, as well as the generals at and above the division and brigade level in the entire Third Theater, knew about this. An Yi not only publicly accuses you, but also doesn't know how to respect the teacher, Zhang Wenbai is his teacher, there was a little mistake in the command, is it necessary to hold on to the pigtails? Today, An Yi was at the summary meeting, so that General Wenbai almost couldn't get off the stage......"

"Let's stop here!"

Chiang Kai-shek "bang", put down the teacup heavily, raised his head, and looked straight at Chen Lifu with both eyes, his eyes deep and sharp.

Chen Lifu's eyes were a little erratic, his expression was slightly embarrassed, and after a while, seeing that Chiang Kai-shek still did not let go of his intentions, he took out a handkerchief in a little panic, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and slowly lowered his head, not daring to look at Chiang Kai-shek.

Chiang Kai-shek smiled faintly: "Lifu, I know what you are worried about, and I know that you are for my good, but you don't understand the current trend of the world!" That's right, An Yi's current strength is so strong that even I feel powerless and uncontrollable, but, as your third aunt said, An Yi has no ambition to be the king and hegemon, all his thoughts and energy are used to deal with the great powers, and there is no need to ......make a big fuss at all."

"But-third uncle, tonight An Yi gave Zhang Fakui and Liu Jianxu more than one million dollars in arms, if there is no intention of bribing and co-opting, no one will believe it!" Chen Lifu was a little anxious, and hurriedly opened his mouth to plead.

Chiang Kai-shek shook his head, leaned back, and his eyes fell on the vase next to the bookshelf, which was not in season, but a bunch of Jiahe with large and heavy particles, which was sent by An Yi directly from the southern Yunnan reclamation area to fly over a bunch of hybrid rice with a yield of 650 kilograms per mu that was about to mature, and the deep meaning contained in it could only be understood by Chiang Kai-shek, at this moment, Chiang Kai-shek suddenly missed An Yi who was on the front line.

Chiang Kai-shek turned his head and saw Chen Lifu's indignant expression, and the expression on his face gradually became solemn: "Zu Yan, you don't understand An Yi's heart, only I understand him, he is a frank and upright person, and he is by no means as unbearable as you say." In fact, when he set off from Nanxiang to Suzhou in the morning, he had already called me and told me about his worries about the first-line defense of Hangzhou Bay. Now that the main channel of the Yangtze River is cut off, the Japanese army can only attack our army from the concession area, Pudong and Hangzhou Bay, and the concession area and along the Yangtze River, the Ninth Group Army with Wenbai and the 15th Group Army are resigned, both of which are the elite of our Central Army, and the Japanese army is not so easy to break through, and there is still a Huangpu River in the middle, which is not suitable for the transfer of large corps, so the Japanese army can only launch a fierce attack from the right flank position of Zhang Xianghua in Pudong. In addition to dealing with the Japanese army in Pudong, Zhang Xianghua also had to defend the long coastline, and the difficulty of defense can be imagined.

"Zu Yan, you also know that the Eighth Group Army is composed of a mixture of the Hunan Army, the Anhui Army, the former 19th Route Army and the local troops in Fujian. So far, the entire Eighth Army has not even had a single artillery, how can it withstand the rapid offensive of the Japanese army? Therefore, it is necessary and necessary to strengthen the armament of the Eighth Army. As for Liu Jianxu's Tenth Group Army, the department is all composed of the Hunan Army, how is the equipment of the Hunan Army, Zu Yan, you also understand, the Tenth Group Army not only has to protect Hangzhou Bay, but also to protect the safety of Xiangshan Port and Sanmen Bay, the responsibility is heavy, An Yi can take into account the overall situation and contribute generously, I am too late to be happy, where will I blame him? ”

Chen Lifu's face was pale: "But-"

Chiang Kai-shek showed an encouraging smile: "Lifu, be open-minded, in fact, Speaking of which, An Yi is also your student, when you were at the Whampoa Military Academy, weren't you my confidential secretary?" There is nothing that cannot be sat down and talked between teachers and students, so think about my words when you go back! By the way, remember to take this message away, I don't want to read it! ”

After that, Chiang Kai-shek waved his hand and signaled Chen Lifu to retreat, and when Chen Lifu's back disappeared at the door of the study, the smile on Chiang Kai-shek's face gradually disappeared: "Niang Xipi, when I was in Xi'an, who was jumping up and down with He Jing, trying to seize the supreme leadership of the party, and who was loyal, willing to risk infamy, and was busy running around to save me, do you think I don't know?" You want to use me as a sword, no way! ”

At this time, Song Meiling hurriedly walked into the study, with a happy smile on her face, sat down with her arms around Chiang Kai-shek's neck, and asked affectionately: "Darling, is Zu Yan looking for anything for you?" ”

"It's all trivial things in party affairs!" Chiang Kai-shek turned to Song Meiling and asked with a smile, "What is so happy?" ”

Song Meiling said: "Now is the season of hair lychee production, this year's output in southern Yunnan is higher than in previous years, Xiao Yi specially sent someone to send us two baskets, he was worried that we would not be able to eat for a while, and sent a fresh cabinet produced by the Xufu Electric Appliance Factory, Mao Lychee is placed in it, and there is no need to worry about rotting for a long time." I just washed some and put it in the bedroom, Darling, eat with me later, okay? ”

Thinking of the fragrant, sweet and juicy Mao Lychee, Chiang Kai-shek couldn't help swallowing his saliva and nodded: "Okay, the last time I tasted it was when I was in Xi'an in December last year, and now that I think about it, I still have a fragrant taste." It's okay left and right, let's go! With that, Chiang Kai-shek took Song Meiling's hand, stood up together, and walked to the bedroom lovingly.

......

Suihua City under the cover of night.

After several years of operation, the whole city resembled a huge bunker, with fortifications everywhere inside and outside the city, hidden forts everywhere on the city, and trenches crisscrossing the outside of the city.

At the foot of the city wall, which stretched to four miles outside the city, there were six lines of defense, and there were dense pillboxes everywhere, and there were also heavy artillery of the field artillery wing in the city to support the front-line positions at any time.

At 11 o'clock on the night of 19 August, the 5th Division of the Anti-Japanese Rescue Army under the command of Hu Jiyang launched a fierce attack on the defenders from the north and east of Suihua City.

As the 5th Division's decoy mortars began to cover fire, the Japanese artillery group, which advanced to the third line of positions northeast of the city walls, quickly prepared to open fire.

Eight Meiji 38 105-mm field guns raised their muzzles, and shirtless Japanese gunners rushed to their emplacements, opened the ammunition boxes, and brought shells out of them. The busy loader loaded the yellow shell into the chamber, added the cartridge, and then covered the bolt and waited for the commander to give the order to fire.

According to the position of the mortar firing of the squadron *** feedback from the observation post, the Japanese artillery commander shouted the data, and finally waved a small flag and shouted: "Ready, fire!" ”

The 105-mm field gun shuddered violently, and the ground began to tremble violently as orange fireballs erupted from the muzzle.

The whistling shells flew towards the place where the mortars were fired, but unfortunately the position was empty at this time.

The whistling shells smashed to the ground, and fireballs rose from the ground, and raging shrapnel flew in all directions, making the night extremely gorgeous.

The moment the Japanese artillery opened fire, Luo Yaomin, the commander of the artillery regiment of the Fifth Division, quickly calculated the location of the devil artillery according to the trajectory.

With an order, the 20 Soviet-made Type 1927 76-mm howitzers and 15 Japanese-made Type 90 75-mm field guns owned by the first battalion of the artillery regiment roared angrily, and in just one and a half minutes, a hundred shells fell on the Japanese artillery position, and the artillery that was still raging just now quickly fell silent.

"Dididi-"

A loud charge sounded, and a battalion of infantry launched a fierce attack on the Japanese army's outer positions.

In the night, the hidden firepower of the Japanese army began to exert its power, spitting out scarlet tongues of fire. The dark red bullet marks spread a dense net of fire, and the dense bullets shrouded the heads of the charging soldiers, suppressing them to the ground, unable to raise their heads.

However, the devil's machine-gun firing point was soon hit by the 1st Artillery Battalion directly under the Fifth Division, and the Soviet-style and Japanese-style howitzers bombarded violently, sending all those exposed targets into the sky. The machine-gun bunkers placed by the devil soldiers in the trenches were all destroyed, and after five minutes, there was no more fortifications to spit out flames.

The infantrymen were overwhelmed by the Japanese firepower, and quickly jumped up from the ground, like tigers descending from the mountain, shouting and rushing towards the Japanese position.

At the same time, snipers and sharpshooters followed behind the infantry, and in the light of the artillery fire, they used accurate point fire to eliminate the devils who were hiding in the shadows and firing cold guns.

In the dark night, it was not clear how many troops the squadron had invested, and the Japanese front-line commander panicked and used artillery and machine gunners again, using Meiji 38 type 120 mm field howitzers and Type 92 anti-aircraft machine guns to fire intensively in the direction that the squadron rushed over.

The officers and men who rushed to the front were caught off guard and were suddenly knocked down in a large area, and the officers and soldiers behind lay down one after another, quickly looking for the terrain to hide their figures.

"The Japanese army really has a back hand, but fortunately I only sent one battalion of officers and soldiers to carry out a loose feint!" Hu Jiyang put down the binoculars and instructed Tang Wen, who was standing beside him:

"Let the 1st Battalion of the Artillery Regiment continue to fire and suppress the firepower of the Japanese army!"

Because of the fear that the Japanese army also adopted the tactics of luring the enemy to show up and annihilate in one fell swoop, so today's artillery regiment adopted the method of arranging the formation in the left, center and right directions, and the artillery position where Luo Yaomin was located was only arranged with a battalion of 35 guns, fortunately, when it was suddenly attacked, the Japanese commander was in chaos, and he did not think of attacking the opponent's artillery at the first time, but instead shelled the attacking infantry incorrectly, which gave Luo Yaomin the opportunity to continue to perform, 35 cannons bombarded the Japanese artillery position fiercely, and the shells were like hail, It fell above the Japanese artillery array, blew up the Japanese 120-mm field howitzers, and the anti-aircraft machine guns arranged around the artillery positions were completely lost.

The Japanese lost artillery support, and the mortars of the 5th Division quickly moved forward, and dense shells rained down on the Japanese positions, and stumps and broken arms flew sideways.

The charging soldiers stepped on the nodes of the cannonballs, decisively broke into the first trench of the Japanese army, and the rifles in their hands shot revenge bullets at the devils who were dizzy by the explosion, and firmly controlled the first line of battle.

Suihua Railway Station is located in the northeast of the city, between the first line of defense and the second line of defense, with the fall of the first front, armored trains have been able to drive into the Suihua Railway Station, which has five platforms, aimed at the city to carry out a terrifying large-caliber heavy artillery bombardment.

When the Fifth Division succeeded in taking the first line of Japanese trenches, the battle outside the south gate of Suihua began. The Japanese troops defending the city were faced with the problem of which direction to support.

Hu Jiyang did not have any relents, and invested two battalions of troops to the front line, continuing to defend the Japanese army, because the fifth division adopted the unique infantry and artillery coordination of the Anjia Army, and the machine gun suppressed the fierce tactics of the infantry charge one by one, and the second line of defense on the periphery of the Japanese army collapsed immediately.

After a long period of observation, the artillery observers arranged by the Japanese army in various places on the city wall of Suihua City found that the squadron outside the city did not have large-caliber heavy artillery, and the number of artillery was not large.

Seeing the fall of the two outer fronts, the commander of the Japanese army's *** field artillery wing, Naoki Takagi, finally couldn't help it, and on the main artillery position of the wing, which was equipped with 40 Meiji Type 38 150mm field howitzers, the artillerymen began to adjust the direction of the muzzle, and under the guidance of the artillery observers, they carried out fierce artillery bombardment on the artillery position of the Fifth Division in the north of the city.

The bombs, weighing 36 kilograms, "rumbled" down on the artillery positions of the Fifth Division, and we can see how terrifying the intensity and intensity of the shelling were, just from the fact that the ground was shaking within a radius of several kilometers at the time of the explosion, like a magnitude 5 earthquake.

Fortunately, every move of the Japanese army was within Hu Jiyang's expectations, 20 Soviet-made 1927 76-mm howitzers and 15 Japanese-made 90-type 75-mm field guns were transferred five minutes ago.

When the Japanese army carried out the second round of shelling, Luo Yaomin immediately reported a series of numbers, and after the artillery finished checking and shooting Zhu Yuan, he gave an order: "Open the artillery!" ”

The heavy artillery group composed of Soviet-made 152 mm howitzers and 203 mm howitzers instantly let out a deafening roar, and the overwhelming shells flew into Suihua City and landed on the Japanese artillery positions accurately.

The bursting shrapnel and the violent air wave were indestructible, tearing apart the thousands of Japanese artillery who controlled the heavy artillery and sending them into the sky, and the heavy artillery was blown up to the ground and disintegrated, turning into piles of broken copper and iron.

The biggest threat to Suihua City is in Hu Jiyang's ingenious layout, which is wiped out.
