Chapter 793: The Wind Comes from All Directions

"Boom, boom...... "No matter what Chongqing thinks, the National Defense Forces are still doing what they are doing....... For example, now, the Second Army is frantically attacking the Japanese army in Cangzhou City.

The anti-tank trenches that the Japanese had painstakingly dug only stopped the Wehrmacht for more than three hours. Subsequently, under the bombardment of aircraft and the bombardment of the Second Artillery, this anti-tank trench was reduced to ruins.

The collapsed anti-tank trench was rushed by armored forces in just three or two clicks. The Japanese were forced to retreat again and build new defensive positions.

So far in the battle, Shouichi Terauchi even forced the half-crippled armored division to go to the position to help defend it. There was no way, unless the Japanese army chose to retreat, it could only mobilize all its forces for defense.

The entire Japanese North China Front has fought so far, and what remains is only more than 130,000 troops. On the other side, the Second Army of the Wehrmacht had up to 200,000 troops

This does not include the heavy artillery group, an armored division, and the 2nd artillery corps, and the progress of such a comparative battle can be imagined. It can be said that Terauchi Shouichi has been able to hold on to the present and can be called a first-class general in the Japanese army.

"Those old men who are waiting for the military headquarters know that if we wait any longer, our North China Front will be completely wiped out," Terauchi Shouichi roared in his headquarters.

On the table was a telegram from Dong Jinlai. The content of the telegram was simple, simply asking the temple to continue its defense. in an attempt to withstand the attack of the Wehrmacht.

But now that the entire army has no air superiority, no armored units, and no heavy artillery, how can it withstand it? Moreover, now that the entire North China Front is divided into two parts, how can it withstand the attack of the Wehrmacht?

"Your Excellency Commander, there is no way for the military department to ......" Major General Okabe Naosaburo, chief of staff, sighed: "Now the country is constantly gathering troops, but the biggest problem is still the ...... resources."

"The horse manure of the Navy took steel to build their warships, resulting in a shortage of supplies for our army. Newly recruited soldiers still need to be trained before they can truly become emperors. It takes time......"

"But we need more time now," Terauchi Shouichi said in a deep voice, "You can see the current situation of the war, the Wehrmacht is menacing, and their armored forces are constantly breaking through our defensive positions. If this continues, we will be forced to abandon Cangzhou City for three days at most."

"I would also like to be able to withstand the Wehrmacht offensive, but we have lost the most important air force and heavy artillery group. Under this disadvantage, it will be difficult for us to withstand the attack of the Wehrmacht."

By this time the sky was getting darker, and the sound of Wehrmacht gunfire had finally stopped. The two sides are temporarily in a street state, but Shouichi Terauchi knows that this situation will soon change.

The Wehrmacht had a strong assault capability, and their armored forces ensured that they could run across the plains, and the Japanese army's current small-caliber artillery hit these tanks no different than tickling.

It can be said that the Japanese army does not currently have any means of countering armored forces at all, except for anti-tank trenches. can only hold on to it like this, or choose to retreat.

"Hahaha...... Those people in Chongqing actually sent a newspaper to ask me? Ask me what to do?" Tu Qianjun laughed with the telegram from Chongqing, whether he was bearded or now as the commander-in-chief of the National Defense Forces, he has never looked down on the old men in the national government.

To say that they have a corpse vegetarian meal is an insult to the four words corpse vegetarian meal, these people are a group of proper-stirring sticks. Eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, fighting for power and profit, to say a little about the wind and snow, these people are extremely good. But if you ask them to do practical things, they will be blinded one by one.

For example, General Sun Liren, who was blown to the sky in later generations, was accused of poor military discipline and robbery of the people when he was stationed in Guangzhou.

Then General Sun Da responded like this: The Cantonese people are extremely mean, and when our army was stationed in Siam and Burma in the past, the local overseas Chinese were very polite to us, undressing and pushing food, and we soldiers took whatever they wanted, and they took whatever they wanted.

Master Sun undoubtedly takes taking the people's things for granted, and it would be mean and stingy not to give them. There is quite a translator from Zhang Gali: Lao Tzu doesn't need money to go to a restaurant in the city, what kind of essence is it to eat a few rotten watermelons from you.

This is true for elite divisions, and the situation of the other troops can be imagined.

"Hehehe...... Chongqing is also in a hurry, and their current situation is not good. Su Zongzhe smiled helplessly and said: "The Japanese Central China Front is approaching more than 300,000 steps, and the Wuhan Battle is defeated and demoralized. They are thinking about finding us now, but they are helpless......"

Tu Qianjun put the telegram on the table and said with a smile: "Those old men in Chongqing don't shed tears when they don't see the coffin, and now they have found Long Yun to contact me." What's the connection?"

As he spoke, Tu Qianjun stood up and said to Su Zongzhe: "Look at them through Long Yun, you can know that these people still hold the idea that they are orthodox, let them go, I don't care what these people think."

Saying that, Tu Qianjun shrugged his shoulders: "Give them weapons, but it's not worth giving to Long Yun, but the 60th Group Army broke through the Japanese position." But the Central Army fought on the periphery for a long time but didn't get in, what is this called?"

Su Zongzhen smiled bitterly and was speechless, he knew that his commander-in-chief had a high vision. I simply don't look down on the units of the Central Army whose combat effectiveness is extremely poor.

Su Zongzhe had been in the Central Army, and he knew the situation in the Central Army. In the early years, the Central Army, which was based on Huangpu teachers and students as the backbone, was in fact extremely combative, and Jiang Zhongzheng's starting of this unit contributed a lot.

After a few twists and turns, the Central Army has long since ceased to be as strong as it once was. Jiang Zhongzheng continued to incorporate those warlord troops, and at the same time added veterans to the Central Army. A large amount of weapons and equipment has also been acquired.

Indeed, in the short term, this can indeed greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of the Central Army. But what followed was the weakening of the entire army.

But the most serious thing is that Jiang Zhongzheng has tilted his own body. The upward movement is naturally the downward effect, and the Huangpu department that stayed by Jiang Zhongzheng's side was loyal to Jiang Zhongzheng, and some of his command ability was also good.

But these people are also good at shoveling the land, from Tang Enbo to the famous general Xue Yue. Shoveling up the ground is not a soft hand.

For example, the famous general Xue Da, while fighting, did not forget to resell grain to Guangdong together with the director of the Hunan Trade Bureau and General Xue's uncle, Fang Renju, of course, there is also a hand of Mr. Ziwen.

In short, General Xue made a lot of money by his means. However, Hunan had a bumper harvest of grain, but the grain was shipped to Guangdong. As a result, countless people died of starvation in Hunan at that time.

However, the life and death of the fart people really does not matter to General Xue's heart. Anyway, if you are dead, someone will always make up for it, aren't those fart people supposed to contribute to him General Xue?

"Commander, how should we respond to this?" Su Zongzhe really can't make too many statements on this matter, after all, he is also from the Central Army.

It is better to say nothing than to wait silently for the order of the commander-in-chief.

"Rifles, machine guns and mortars sent them a batch." Tu Qianjun thought for a while, and said to Su Zongzhe: "If you want heavy weapons, exchange them for their military exploits." I don't look down on that little thing in the government, just let them deal with it themselves. ”

Tu Qianjun felt that it was not good to give nothing, after all, the soldiers below still needed weapons. But give them good weapons, and maybe they will all be given to the Japanese in two clicks.

The combat effectiveness of those cronies of the transport captain is really worrisome. In the Battle of Yuxianggui, the Japanese army of more than 50,000 troops fought Lao Tang, and more than 400,000 people fled for their lives all over the mountains.

All the equipment that the Americans desperately brought over from the Hump Route was sent to the Imperial Japanese Army.

However, what is even funnier than this is that in later generations, some people continue to overturn the cases of the four major families. said that the brothers of the Chen family mixed up to raise chickens for a living in the end, and their lives were tight.

Unfortunately, the reversers did not know about a secret investigation report made on October 17, 1939 by the Japanese secret services on the deposits of senior Kuomintang government officials in foreign banks in Shanghai in the archives of Zhang Jia (former president of the Bank of China and the Central Bank) in the Hoover Institution Archives of Stanford University.

The report is entitled "Deng Group Special Report No. 1 / / Government Dignitaries Shanghai Foreign Bank Deposit (Deposit) Questionnaire". It reads:

Jiang Zhongzheng 66.39 million yuan (according to the exchange rate between the fiat currency and the US dollar at that time, it was about 8.09 million US dollars.) The same hereinafter),

Song Meiling 30.94 million yuan ($3.77 million)

Song Ziwen 52.3 million yuan ($6.37 million)

Kong Xiangxi 52.14 million yuan ($6.35 million),

Song Ailing 12 million yuan ($1.46 million),

Chen Lifu 24 million yuan ($2.92 million),

Song Ziliang 5.5 million yuan ($670,000),

Zhang Qun: 27.5 million yuan ($3.35 million)

He Yingqin: 26 million yuan (US$3.17 million)

These deposits were held in foreign banks that were operating in Shanghai at that time, such as Citigroup, Macquarie, Chase, AIA, American Express, HSBC, ABN AMRO, etc. Therefore, it is not groundless that Truman later scolded the government for being all thieves.

"I don't want to have anything to do with these people." Tu Qianjun said very directly and clearly: "These people will be pioneers when they fight for power, and they will grind foreign workers when they do things." If you want to wait for them to fight to the death, it is better for me to come myself. ”

Su Zongzhen smiled bitterly, speechless for Tu Qianjun's words. How could he not know about the state capital? But he can't help it himself, those people are old fritters.

Playing with the heart and playing with politics is a top power, but if you really fight it. The battles of Songhu, Nanjing, and Wuhan can be seen.

These people have not yet figured out how to fight, and there are even people who do not know how to fight the Japanese army at all. Moreover, it can be seen from their gesture of contacting the government that these people are still trying to bargain with the "orthodox" shelf.

Because of this, Tu Qianjun chose to let them deal with it themselves. Guns give some, but the best ones don't. As for what they can do, it's up to them to do it.

"Uncle Qiliu, how is the situation in North Korea now?" Tu Qianjun didn't want to waste too much time on Chongqing, so he shifted the topic to North Korea.

"Jin Jiu's troops have been roughly trained and formed, and now they have taken over many of our positions." Su Zongzhe also knew what Tu Qianjun meant, and replied carefully: "According to the assessment of the Korean Theater, although these troops have not reached the combat effectiveness of our headquarters, their defense is still okay."

"Hmm...... A certain number of troops were kept in Korea, and all the rest were returned to China. Tu Qianjun pondered for a while, and said to Su Zongzhe: "Tell Li Hansoul that Baoding must take Yan Chenghanding over Nanjing as soon as possible for too long, I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on." At the worst of all, we also need to speed up the pace so that the aircraft can cover the positions of the Second Army. Give them a little help......"

"Okay......" Su Zongzhe recorded the order, and Tu Qianjun walked to the map, looked at the map that was marked full, frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Is the overall battle planned by the General Staff last time the results now?"

"It's still a little worse, we are speeding up the progress......" Su Zongzhe put down his notebook and said to Tu Qianjun: "Commander, the situation on the Soviet side is unknown now. Shall we wait and see?"

Tu Qianjun turned around and smiled when he heard this.

"There's nothing unclear, it's just that the two sides are tired of fighting and plan to reconcile." saw Tu Qianjun smile and said: "Stalin is not a simple character, this person...... It will be a fierce rival for our rise. ”

Su Zongzhen frowned when he heard this, and said to his commander-in-chief: "Then why don't we just get rid of him?"

"Because...... He is also a fierce rival to others. Tu Qianjun smiled meaningfully, and said to Su Zongzhe: "We need such people to be strong enemies, sometimes strong enemies give you more benefits than allies."

This is a little confusing, but Su Zongzhen doesn't want to delve into it. said to Tu Qianjun: "Commander, do you have any other orders?" If not, I'll go to the herald now. ”

"No, help me call Wang Yajiao in when you go out." Tu Qianjun nodded, and Su Zongzhen answered and left the office.

After Wang Yajiao entered the office, Tu Qianjun only gave him one sentence: "Let the nails of northern Jiangsu move and relieve some pressure on Nanjing." ”

This telegram was transmitted to the distant northern part of Jiangsu along with the radio waves. And there, Liu Yunjiao, Tu Qianjun's personal guard, opened his mouth with a telegram and smiled happily.

"Hehehe...... I thought the commander had forgotten me" A woman stood beside Liu Yunjiao, looking at him curiously. This woman has always thought that Liu Yunjiao is an unsmiling and serious man.

But unexpectedly, a telegram made this calm man smile like a child.

"Eighth sister, you don't know. Since I came out, this is the first time that our commander has sent us a telegram" Liu Yunjiao smiled and handed the telegram to the woman beside him, which was the first team he had recruited in northern Jiangsu.

And this woman is named Huang Baiqi.

Many people may not know the name Huang Baiqi, but at this time, the name of "Double Gun Huang Bamei" in northern Jiangsu is known to everyone

Even, the Japanese army customized a blacklist for her. Reward for capture.

"Our commander? Is that the commander-in-chief of the Tigers who fought the Japanese in Korea you said?" Huang Bamei blinked her eyes and asked Liu Yunjiao very curiously.

In terms of history, Huang Bamei is an extremely complex character. And from her, we can also see some microcosms of that era.

Huang Bamei, also known as Baiqi, is known as Cuiyun, her ancestral home is Pinghu, Zhejiang, and she was born in 1906 in Fuwangdai, Jinshan, Jiangsu. She is not pretty, a little short and fat but strong, because she ranks eighth among more than ten children in the family, so her milk name is "Eighth Sister".

Due to her poor family background, she worked as a child daughter-in-law in the Wu family of Baziqiao in Qianjiawei, Jinshan, but soon terminated the contract and trafficked illicit salt with her father. In order to prevent the fierce robbers from robbing halfway, his father asked Huang Bamei, who was only 12 years old, to start practicing marksmanship.

At the age of 17, she killed nine bandits who tried to hijack ships while protecting salt, while the rest of the bandits fled. This also made her famous as "Yellow Eighth Sister with Two Guns".

Then she married the local salt policeman Yuan San Mazi, but unfortunately she had too strong a personality. Yuan San Mazi couldn't stop her at all, and the two often quarreled with each other to the point of pulling out guns to face each other.

Huang Baiqi was also stubborn, and actually chose to divorce Yuan San Mazi directly. You know, divorce in the countryside in this era is a great thing. But Huang Baiqi did it after all.

Later, Huang Baiqi worshipped Li Dahanzi, a salt tyrant, as an "old man", and began to arm and traffic illicit salt alone. She once tried to "do something big" with the "Taibao Ashu" that haunted Shanghai and Zhejiang.

was also involved in a big robbery that occurred in Dianshan Lake and other places, and in the end she was desperate, so she had to find the old man Li Tianming to find a way. Li Tianming is also not bad, and placed Huang Baiqi in the local gentry Yao Zhongxiu's house as a concubine. It's kind of finding a way out for her.

It's a pity that Huang Baiqi is not destined to be a person who keeps to himself. When the Japanese army entered northern Jiangsu, Huang Baiqi finally chose to give up his comfortable life and turned around again to become the "double gun Huang Bamei".

She used all her family property to buy guns, and gathered the Jinlan sisters, who had been friends for ten years, to form a "dead friend". Launched a guerrilla war to strike at the Japanese troops who had entered northern Jiangsu.

It was at this time that she fell into the eyeliner everywhere. When Liu Yunjiao was sent to northern Jiangsu, Huang Bamei and more than 300 people under her command became the target of Liu Yunjiao's struggle.

"Hahaha...... Of course it's him" Liu Yunjiao smiled very happily, and said to Huang Bamei: "When our opportunity to make meritorious service comes, remember what I told you?" As long as you have made meritorious contributions, I will find a way to ensure that you go to the National Defense University of the three eastern provinces for further study. If you come out, you can be a full-fledged officer."

Huang Baiqi heard Liu Yunjiao's words, and his face turned red. Squirmed and said to Liu Yunjiao: "I'm ...... I've only known a few words...... How do I get to school?"

"Am I not teaching you to read? There is nothing that cannot be learned, our brothers and sisters below must start to read and write" Liu Yunjiao waved his hand, looking quite like a fierce tiger.

"Our commander-in-chief said that an army without knowledge is a stupid army. We, the National Defense Force, have never believed in 'soldiers are foolish,' and what we want is to cultivate the all-round development ability of our officers and men."

Huang Baiqi looked at Liu Yunjiao's impassioned appearance and couldn't help but have a surname, how could she have seen such a character as Liu Yunjiao when she was so big?

She came into contact with either water bandits, and she scolded her mother for being rude. Either they are the so-called "readers", who are powerless and look down on people with the whites of their eyes.

And Liu Yunjiao is able to write and martial arts, and he can "beat people" when he takes it out in the Northeast dialect with a brush hand. Needless to say, the kung fu in his hands is not a problem to clean up ten or eight men as Li Shuwen's apprentice.

Marksmanship? can be selected to Tu Qianjun's side as a personal guard, Liu Yunjiao's marksmanship is beyond doubt.

"Come on, come on...... Eighth sister, the order given by the commander now is to support the Second Army in the South Stable. Liu Yunjiao sighed and said, "Lao Yan's hard work, so let's relieve him of pressure on the periphery."

Huang Baiqi nodded fiercely when he heard this: "I know that the team in the South Stable, those really good men are much stronger than the central army in Chongqing that left the common people and ran away."

As he spoke, Huang Baiqi said to Liu Yunjiao with autumn waves in his eyes: "Brother Liu, what should we do?" Are you going to fight the devil's encirclement?"

Liu Yunjiao couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Huang Baiqi's words, how could this more than 300 people want to fight the encirclement of the Japanese army, is it too fat?

"It's not~No~" After a pause, Liu Yunjiao said to Huang Baiqi with a smile: "Eighth sister, we only have more than 300 people in our hands now." If you want to fight hard with the Japanese, you will definitely not be able to fight, and the commander means that we will harass the supply lines of the Japanese army and reduce the pressure on the southern stable. ”

"There are 100,000 Japanese troops surrounded by the south stable, so it's not easy for us to go up with more than 300 people." Liu Yunjiao patiently said to Huang Baiqi: "So, let's just beat their supply team."

"Well......" Huang Bamei, who has always been fierce with two guns, actually blushed a little, and lowered her head and responded to Liu Yunjiao.

"Hmm...... Fortunately, the team has actual combat experience, and the difference is the run-in. I'll make an ambush plan first, and we'll take it to the headquarters meeting to discuss it. Liu Yunjiao didn't seem to notice Huang Baiqi's abnormality, and turned to look at the map on the wall.

At this time, in northern Jiangsu, more than a hundred troops similar to Liu Yunjiao began to move slowly. Some of these troops are under the jurisdiction of various places. The other part was founded by the crows.

For example, Huo Qingyun is now the guerrilla commander of the Northern Jiangsu Region. After receiving orders from Beijing, the guerrillas, who had been fighting pettily, stopped their movements almost at the same time.

The commanders of these small units came to Jurong through their own channels. Gathered in a small courtyard.

"You've all received a call from headquarters, right?" In the conference room, Huo Qingyun looked at everyone and said in a deep voice. Seeing everyone nodded, he paused and continued: "Then, take out their respective plans." Let's discuss. (To be continued) ()
