Chapter 593: Temptation

Su Zongzhen smiled faintly and said softly: "First, our national defense force has always refused those who come to fight patriotically. Secondly, our defense forces have always refused to leave those who want to leave, regardless of their reasons or thoughts. ”

This sentence is light and gentle. But Confucius clearly heard a trace of confidence and toughness in these gentle words! Those who come do not refuse, and those who go do not stay. Of course, the premise of those who come must be patriotic fighters!

The one who went didn't stay, but did you want to come back...... Hehehe! I don't know when the Nanjing government will be able to have this confidence! Confucius Ziyuan sighed in his heart, in fact, he also knew in his heart that if he really had this confidence, then he and the people of the Song family would basically be able to withdraw from the stage of history.

A powerful regime can tolerate gatekeepers, but it must not tolerate gatekeepers that threaten or even try to control the state. Wars between gatekeepers and regimes have been staged throughout history.

As far as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, as far as the Republic of China. Either the regime is killed by the gate valve, and a new gate valve appears in the new home world. Either the gate valve will be cleaned up by the regime, weakened for tens or hundreds of years, or simply disappeared from the long river of history.

"Woo~~" The whistle sounded! The cruise ship slowly leaned towards the shore in the expectant gaze of everyone, and the people on the pier stared with bated breath! The deeds of the 52nd Division's heroic resistance to the Japanese army on the Minjiang River have spread all over the world and even around the world with the reports of reporters!

Of course, these messages came from the Wehrmacht crows. Huo Qingyun and the others have been transmitting the various processes and news of the battle back to Fengtian. And Fengtian was sorted out and handed over to the Aban reporter for release.

Everyone on the docks is waiting, waiting to see this legendary force! Finally, the cruise ship slowly lowered the trestle. Groups of soldiers in Wehrmacht uniforms slowly descended from the ship!

The atmosphere was solemn and serious, and the crowd that was originally ready to cheer was also infected by this atmosphere! They were all silent, only Confucius Ziyuan looked at these soldiers wearing the uniforms of the Wehrmacht, and their faces became ugly in vain!

But then he was relieved that maybe this was a trick played by the Wehrmacht! Only the uniforms of the Wehrmacht were placed on the ship, and the 52nd Division had no way to wear them!

In any case, the Nanjing National Defense Force has always been the central orthodoxy. This is something that Mukden can't match. Even if the countries don't pay attention to it, they will still place the ambassador in Nanjing because of the situation.

But this kind of placement is basically useless. Britain, the United States, France and Germany all knew that what Nanjing could decide was nothing but its own business. This is something that the really powerful Fengtian can decide, and it is the thing that affects the entire country.

This time the Japanese army attacked Fujian. The performance of the Nanking government can only add a few points of contempt to Britain and the United States, and will not increase their favorability -- no one can afford to look down on the weak. For the weak, there may be a hint of sympathy. But there will be no respect.

The concession of the strong will be seen as tolerance. And the concession of the weak will simply be seen as cowardice. Korean War, when the red warned several times. Unfortunately, in the eyes of the United States and other countries, this is nothing more than a joke.

When the Korean War passed, the United States attacked Vietnam again. This time, we are faced with a warning that "China will send troops if it crosses the 17th parallel." The United States is like a great enemy! With the exception of a covert operation, the regular troops did not dare to approach the border! This is what the Korean War was for.

The power of words depends on what you have done. If you prove your strength, you will have a strong voice. After returning from the war of self-defense and counterattack against Vietnam, those with insight will not think that this is China's defeat. In their opinion, this is simply the restraint of the great powers.

The goddess stepped on me thousands of times, and I treated the goddess like my first love. In exchange for nothing more than contempt, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign. And the most obvious. It is the two sides of the strait in later generations.

In the eyes of the nations, the bay is nothing but a fat sheep on the knees. No matter how humble he is, no powerful country will look at him. Even if the arms sales are given. But it's five times higher than the market price! And what is sold, it can only be hehehe.

However, what they give to the other side of the bay is respect. Even though they are constantly attacking and confronting each other behind their backs, it can be seen from various exchanges that this is a sign of respect for the great powers!

Leaders on the other side of the strait are qualified to angrily reprimand the Japanese prime minister at the summit to "do not misjudge the situation." It is also possible to ignore the cordial greeting of the French president. He even dared to openly say that "some countries have nothing to do when they are full". And Dumb Bay, can you do it?!

The soldiers slowly stepped off the ship, but did not immediately assemble in a procession. Instead, they stood on either side of the trestle desk. This situation made Confucius Yuan wonder!

But when Su Zongzhen saw this situation, his face suddenly became solemn! He walked up slowly, standing at the last of the warriors. Stand in awe!

The Wehrmacht officers and men who came with him, except for those who were on guard, stood beside the officers and men of the 52nd Division who had disembarked. They know what's going to happen.

"Lizheng~~ Salute!!" Just in the midst of Confucius Yuan's doubts, he heard a heart-rending roar! But I saw that these soldiers "brush~" suddenly stood upright! That waist pole is straight! A military salute!

At this time, a group of people slowly walked down from the trestle! The leader is Lu Xingrong, who is wearing the uniform of the Wehrmacht! He carried a broken battle flag of the 52nd Division and walked in the forefront. And behind him. It's a large group of officers and soldiers of the 52nd Division!

But when I saw these soldiers and the two of them in a row, their expressions were solemn! The pace is steady and tragic! On their shoulders, carrying planks. On the wooden board are boxes tied with black gauze.

"To the martyrs who died in battle! Salute!! Su Zongzhe, who was standing on the edge of the team, had his eyes red violently, and shouted loudly!

"Brush ~ Stomp!!" The Wehrmacht officers and men standing in two columns raised their rifles in their hands! At this time, those Shanghai citizens who were waiting on the shore finally knew why these soldiers were so solemn and solemn!

These soldiers slowly walked off the cruise ship with their division commander. Looking at Lu Xingrong's eyes as he walked off the trestle, Confucius felt that he might have no hope of soliciting this time.

The entire pier was full of people from the crowd that had been greeting them. But at this time, there is no sound! They finally knew that there were lives in those boxes! Fight for the lives of the soldiers!

It only took more than ten minutes to get off the cruise. When everyone came down, Lu Xingrong, holding the broken battle flag, roared loudly: "Assemble!" ”

All the officers and men of the 52nd Division gathered together at once! More than 300 people slowly put down the wooden planks with the urns, for fear that their strength would be heavy and wake up the sleeping comrades-in-arms inside......

And Su Zongzhen and the others also slowly walked to the front of this team. When the soldiers of the 52nd Division put down the urn, they saw Lu Xingrong straighten his waist and trotted in front of Su Zongzhe and shouted loudly with all his might.

"Report!! The 52nd Division of the Wehrmacht should reach 4,700 people! That's 4,700! Can't line up 4,400 people! Instructions from the Chief! ”

Four thousand seven hundred! Unable to line up to 4,400 people, this roar made everyone on the dock understand at once what it means to "can't line up" and what it means to "actually have 4,700 people"!!

The poor team that looked resolute, but was small in number. and the urns around them, all silently told everyone what kind of cruel battles this army had experienced!

"Take a break...... After being silent for a while, Su Zongzhen said softly. He has experienced too much of this kind of pain. But every time I see him, my heart can't help but twitch!

These are great boys! They are all my great sons and daughters of China! If they hadn't died on the battlefield, they might have the joy of their wives and children on the hot kang. Maybe learn technology for the benefit of one party!

But in a war, there was nothing. In the urn beside the officers and soldiers of the 52nd Division, he saw a conspicuous name - Liang Chao. He remembered the baby.

This is a Taiyuan baby he values very much, and he has a good foundation! Great ability! I haven't read a book, but I naturally understand the map and can operate the gun! Although he is not very good at learning culture, he is very attentive.

This is a seedling that he is very optimistic about, and this time he was specially sent to support the 52nd Division as a top soldier. didn't think about it, but it fell on the Min River......

At this time, Confucius was completely shocked! A hundred battles are a good soldier! This is an eternal truth, these people who have experienced fighting with the Japanese army for days, and even from more than 4,000 people to more than 300 people, are definitely the elite of the elite!

Although Lu Xingrong's attitude is already obvious, Confucius still wants to fight for it! The stronger the Nanjing government, the more secure it is for him?! Of course, this is the case that the Nanjing government does not threaten him.

Yes, he gritted his teeth and walked in front of Lu Xingrong and smiled reluctantly: "Senior Commander Lu, you have worked hard all the way!" The government was extremely pleased that the 52nd Division was fighting against the Japanese in the Minjiang River! The chairman of the committee specially asked me to come and greet ......."

Su Zongzhe looked at Confucius Yuan's movements and knew what he was going to do. But he still didn't speak, he said: those who come do not refuse, those who go do not stay! This is the attitude of the Wehrmacht.

"Division Commander Lu, this battle has shown the heroism and tenacity of our National Revolutionary Army! Therefore, after discussion, it was decided and appointed by the chairman himself: Division Commander Lu is the commander of the newly formed 52nd Army! Raise the rank of lieutenant general! He also requested that the newly formed 52nd Army be temporarily stationed in the suburbs of Shanghai. The State Government is fully responsible for the salaries and equipment......"

Su Zongzhe couldn't help but smile faintly when he heard Confucius Yuan's words, the Nanjing State Mansion really made a bloody investment! Not to mention the rank of lieutenant general, but also to the establishment of an army!

But how did Su Zongzhe know that the Nanjing State Government was forced to run out of ways! The ambitions of the Japanese are all seen by fools, and the tiger in the three eastern provinces is fine, but who in the Nanjing government dares to say that he can fight with the Japanese?!

Now that it is easy to produce a unit that has fought against the Japanese with weak equipment, they naturally want to pull it over and learn from the experience. Take the veterans with the new recruits and gradually form combat effectiveness!

"Dean Kong......" Lu Xingrong looked at Confucius and said directly without the slightest hesitation. (To be continued)
