Harem Chun's heart was infinitely sad at this time. As the main force, he has encountered such attacks, so the encounters of those divisions and brigades distributed on various heights can be imagined.

In all fairness, Harem Chun's combat methods can be regarded as decent. He did not rush forward, nor did he rush out in a swarm, but cautiously continued to test and divide his troops to break through.

At the same time, they seized various key points and tried to grab a way out for the Japanese army in this way. If he had encountered the Wehrmacht troops of the South China and Southwest Military Regions, perhaps he would have succeeded.

It is even possible to keep most of the strength to break out of the encirclement, but unfortunately, he met Qi Muden, who had fought countless battles against the Japanese army and now held several legions and hundreds of thousands of heavy troops.

Lao Qi is not stupid, coupled with the continuous accumulation of experience and continuous learning over the years, his strategy and tactics have reached a very high level unconsciously.

This level is the experience accumulated from hundreds or even thousands of battles. In every operational analysis and post-war exercise of the General Staff, Qi Muden was always taken as the most important training object.

If there is no way to cultivate Qi Muden, it can only be said that this guy must be an invincible mediocre talent.

Obviously, Qi Muden, who has been cultivated with such concentration, is not a mediocre talent. After he agreed to the Second Army's Yan Chenghan Army's strong attack on Shanghai, he began to arrange the campaign planning for the entire East China Theater.

In this Shanghai Campaign, in order to exercise Qi Mudeng's ability to control the big battle, Tu Menghu specially made Qi Mudeng the commander-in-chief in front of the enemy. He was responsible for the front enemy command of the two military regions in East China and North China.

Even if there is a mistake in this battle, it doesn't matter. At present, Li Zongren's troops of the South China Military Region have entered the Zhejiang region from Jiangxi and Fujian, and are constantly fighting with the Japanese army to seize various key points.

The Fujian side marched relatively smoothly, while the Jiangxi side encountered strong resistance from the Japanese army. After all, the Japanese army of more than 700,000 is not so easy to deal with.

Now the operations of the South China Military Region have reached a stalemate. But as soon as Shanghai is broken, then the Japanese army's hold in the South China direction will become meaningless.

At that time. The East China and North China Military Regions will separate and seize important towns including Suzhou, Hangzhou, and Ningbo, and the Japanese army's rear routes will be in danger of being cut off, and they will also face the front and rear attacks of the Wehrmacht.

There is even a risk of being surrounded and annihilated. It is precisely because of this that Matsui Ishine, who was the commander-in-chief of China's dispatch army in the early days, took Shanghai as his strategic point, and even did not hesitate to put more than 300,000 Japanese troops and hundreds of thousands of imperial allied troops here to fight head-on with national defense.

After Matsui Ishine was removed from his post and transferred to the reserve, Shunroku Hata took his place. Similarly, Shunroku Hata also saw the great strategic value of Shanghai.

Once this place is lost, then the entire Suzhou-Hangzhou town will be greatly threatened. The Wehrmacht only needed two direct attacks to cut off the rear of the Japanese army.

When the time comes. But even the last glimmer of life is gone.

"Chirp...... Rumble! Rumble!! Bombardment ......" continued to rain down shells, and the mud that had soaked up the smoke was constantly lifted and fluttered in the air.

Countless bloody and fragments of corpses filled the air, and there were not many living people left around Harem Chun. Even if they were alive, they were watching the position swath of the position being swallowed up by those Wehrmacht.

"Your Majesty! The harem is so incompetent that it exhausts the warriors of our empire! Hereon. I am loyal to Your Majesty and the Empire!! Harem Chun roared suddenly, pulled out his saber and slashed himself.

He cut so hard that the saber cut straight behind the throat. With a pop, a large amount of blood gushed out of Harem Chun's neck, and he slowly lay on the ground......

The cannon roared, and the Japanese troops on the 357 heights were covered in gunsmoke. The brigade commander, Major General Yoshiki Ikeuchi, and two wing commanders sat in a shelter among the trees.

They have attempted three breakouts since the Wehrmacht, which suddenly appeared half an hour earlier, attacked them. What was met with a powerful counterattack was encountered.

With the help of fire ravens and individual grenade launchers. The Japanese were far inferior to the Wehrmacht in close-range firepower. After rushing three times and leaving behind more than 400 people, Major General Ikeuchi was desperate.

The Ikenai brigade was not fully staffed, and the Ikenai brigade lost more than 2,000 men in the battle outside Shanghai. Almost all that remained escaped.

In the process of withdrawing from Shanghai. By the time they fought and retreated along the way and captured this high ground, there were less than 3,000 men left in the Ikeuchi Brigade. If Ikeuchi hasn't realized that he has fallen into a trap at this time, he can only say that Ikeuchi is a fool.

Ikeuchi is not a fool. As soon as the Wehrmacht appeared, he already knew that it was bad. At that time, he ordered his Matsunaga team to try to break through.

Unfortunately, three successive attempts in different directions failed.

"Gentlemen. We have lost contact with the forces of His Excellency the Harem Commander. It is also impossible to contact the troops in the other highlands, which means that it is likely that they have all been broken for the Imperial Jade、......"

Ikeuchi did not hide the current situation. There is no point in concealing it. This battle has been fought so far, and it is obvious that the Ikeuchi Brigade is going to be explained here.

"When we join the army, we serve the country. The Empire and His Majesty the Emperor sent us to Shina in the hope that we would gain honor for the Empire. Ikechi paused and sighed, "It's a pity...... Snatch defeat from the jaws of victory! ”

The two wing captains did not squeak and stood with their heads bowed to the pool.

"Matsunaga-kun, please misjudge me ......" Ikeuchi whispered to Matsunaga, who was covered in gunsmoke and his face was ashen, "Tell the warriors that today is the time for us to be loyal to the empire and His Majesty the Emperor!" ”

"Hail!!"

Ikeuchi struggled to his feet and pulled out a short knife. Carefully wiped the short knife with a fairly clean white cloth, and finally took a deep breath and suddenly plunged the short knife into his abdomen.

"Bang bang bang ......" At this time, a burst of gunfire rang out! Out of nowhere, a group of men with colorful faces and faces that could not be seen clearly jumped out of the woods.

Ikeuchi's hand holding the short knife was broken by a single shot, and the two wing commanders were knocked to the ground. The guards around knew what had happened to them by listening to the screams.

"Yo ho~ I really caught a big fish!" A man painted with thick oil paint walked over in three or two steps, and touched all the whole body in the pool very quickly. The two wing captains in front of Ikeuchi were also concocted in the same way. Even their mouths were brutally torn open to check for poison pills.

After making sure that they had no other suicide tools in the pool, the man removed the joints of his hands and feet in the pool. Pull out the belt from the pool and tie him up.

"Let's do it~" Seeing that Ikechi seemed to be about to speak, the man pressed Ikeuchi's chin with his hand. When he checked his mouth just now, this man easily removed the chin in the pool.

"Kill me! I beg you, that I may die like a soldier! Ikeuchi opened his mouth and used the middle way, which was not very fluent, and the man only sneered.

But Ikeuchi still kept calling, and the man was annoyed and kicked Ikeuchi's chin away again. This time, the pool stopped calling and stared at the man.

"Soldiers?! When I entered our country, I never regarded you as soldiers. The man sneered, looked at Ikechi and said, "Soldiers don't slaughter women and children." No rape, no robbery! And will not use poison gas bombs when the knife and gun can't beat it! ”

The man gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "Don't fucking humiliate the word soldier!" You bastards are not worthy to be called soldiers, you are mongrels and beasts! ”

A few men on the side seemed to be a little puzzled why their own captain was so angry. Seeing this, several veteran team members sighed and explained to these newcomers.

The captain Lu Hong is a native of Shandong. It was also a solid family, and he went to school in his early years. Admitted to a middle school in Jinan. If it weren't for the war, maybe I would have been able to get into college.

But here comes the devil. These mongrels killed by heaven killed the captain's family of eight overnight. Lu Hong's brother was directly cut off and discarded in the yard.

The sister-in-law was stripped all over her body, and her lower body was cut and her flesh was blurred. The three-year-old little nephew's head was cut off, and even his intestines were pulled out. Lu Hong's father was cut off, his hands and feet were hung on the beams of his home, and he died overnight.

From then on, this scholar swore to the sky that he would not take revenge in this life and swear not to be a man. At that time, Han Fuyu's troops were defeated and retreated. Even Han Fuyu died.

Lu Hong followed the troops in Shandong all the way until he found the Wehrmacht after the Battle of Jinmen and joined in. After a series of assessments, he first served as a squad leader in the company, and even apprenticed to the commander of the divisional reconnaissance battalion to learn martial arts for his master.

Maybe it's a good understanding, or maybe it's the hard training of this god-killing god to avenge his family. Always. It was just more than a year before he was recognized by the battalion commander and joined the reconnaissance battalion as the captain.

He performed bravely in several battles, for which he was the captain of the third brigade of the reconnaissance battalion.

"You're going to die. But it's not so cheap to die......" Lu Hong looked at Chi Nei coldly, without a trace of emotion in his eyes.

"You have to atone for your sins. He atoned for his sins and then died. Lu Hong didn't know what he thought, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, pinched Chi Nei's chin and said softly, "Trust me." I'm going to make your life so enjoyable......"

Lu Hong was very happy, it was definitely a great achievement to take down a brigade commander and two wing commanders. But what made him even happier was that this Ikeuchi definitely didn't want to die well.

The commander of the military region has already said that the captured prisoners will be sacrificed in blood before those soldiers who died in battle! These bastards must pay for the use of poison gas bombs!

Lu Hong is very happy now. However, his military commander Qi Muden was not happy.

Harem Chun's division of troops still worked after all. At least three or more brigades stood out of the encirclement, and although they faced the pursuit of the troops of the East China Military Region, after all, they turned a corner and withdrew.

This ** naked is a slap in the face of Qi Muden! Qi Muden didn't expect that these Japanese people would be so skater. One didn't look good, and slipped away a large piece.

"Damn! Who's in charge of this?! Lao Tzu wants to remove him from his post!! Qi Muden roared at his headquarters, and none of the staff officers on the side dared to squeak.

"This can be run away, what the hell is Shan Peng's twenty-third division going to eat?! Shit or rice bran?! Tang Zhiye, the commander of the Eighth Army, was scolded by Qi Mudeng, and Shan Peng's 23rd Division was under his command of the Eighth Army.

was scolded by the commander-in-chief like this, where did Tang Zhiye suffer? ! But even if you can't stand it, you have to bear it, who told Shan Peng to fight rotten and let the Japanese brigade stand out? !

"Old Qi, this can't be blamed on Shan Peng. The Japanese army suddenly appeared on the 348 heights, and it was too late for him to rush to the order. It's good to be able to destroy a thousand enemies, and now it's not bad to be able to chase and lose them......," Hong Zhishang, chief of the General Staff of the East China Theater, began to persuade his old partner.

"We only gave him half an hour, and the 23rd Division didn't have any heavy firepower. This battle is not easy to fight. It's already good that Shan Peng didn't suffer a loss......"

Qi Mudeng's face was still ugly, but he didn't scold after all. Seeing this, Tang Zhiye nodded gratefully to Hong Shangzhi.

"Old Tang, don't say that my Lao Qi doesn't give you face! If this Japanese army can't be stopped, you must at least expel them to Ningbo. Qi Mudeng waved his hand and said to Tang Zhiye: "I don't want to repeat the tragedy of the Battle of Jinan in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. ”

"Yes!!" When it came to this matter, Tang Zhiye, commander of the Eighth Army, had a serious face. That incident was the commander-in-chief's own father, the black cauldron that the gun master carried to everyone.

for this matter. At that time, none of the troops participating in the Jinan campaign were dissatisfied and angry. But the military order was so, and the decision made by the commander-in-chief was not unreasonable.

These men hate the Japanese army, and those inhuman mongrels caused those tragedies.

Wehrmacht fighters were taken to that town. Look at those pictures and listen to those stories. This was the education carried out by the troops involved in the campaign at that time. In order to tell his warriors what they are fighting for!

At this time, Toshirochi Hatata, who stayed in Shanghai, did not have a good time. He was sometimes awake, sometimes unconscious. The Japanese troops in Shanghai already knew they were abandoned.

However, as many as 20,000 Japanese troops still insisted on fighting. This insistence was somewhat ridiculous in the face of the Wehrmacht's powerful offensive. But these people are still holding on. Although they have despaired.

"Report! The general headquarters called, and the imperial capital asked to capture the Japanese army as much as possible. Not long after Tang Zhiye left Qi Muden's headquarters, the telegraph officer walked in with a telegram.

Qi Muden was stunned at the time, is this a call from the General Headquarters?! Qi Muden snatched the telegram and read it carefully, and after a while, he said to the telegraph officer: "This is a call from the general headquarters?!" Make no mistake?! ”

"It's a call from the General Command. The code is at the highest level of encryption. The telecommunications officer stood up and said loudly.

Qi Muden nodded and waved the telegraph officer down. Holding the telegram and frowning. Hong Shangzhi, the chief of staff on the side, was also thinking with his head down.

The Wehrmacht never had a prisoner. Suddenly receiving such a telegram made Qi Muden feel very strange. If it weren't for the telecommunications officer's statement that this was the highest level of secrecy. He thought it was probably his own code that had been leaked.

"I said Lao Hong, what do you want the commander-in-chief to do with these things?!" Puzzled, he threw the telegram on the map and said to his old partner.

Now that the battle is over, all that remains is for the various divisions to sweep the tail. Those who can be annihilated have been annihilated. Now what we are waiting for is to encircle Shanghai and drive away all the Japanese troops who have fled on the periphery.

"I guessed what the Commander-in-Chief wanted these people to do." Hong Shangzhi was thoughtful. He laughed for a while and said, "Old Qi, have you found it?!" Shandong, Hebei and other places are easy to say, but the road in southern Gansu is difficult to walk......"

As soon as Hong Shangzhi said this, Qi Muden understood. Road construction requires manpower, a large number of manpower. But now almost school-age young people are either in the army, or working in factories and schools.

Where can we get the manpower to build the road?! So, these Japanese people were taken into account.

Hong Shangzhi and Qi Muden were right, and there was a dispute between the coalition government on this matter. Some old masters think that this seems bad and damages the image of the country.

"What bullshit country image?! The image is typed, not seen. Lin Sen was very direct, and he was very supportive of Tu Mengben's proposal.

"Our Nanjing government is very kind, who gave us a good look?! In this world, a hungry wolf can't tolerate a lamb! Since those Japanese people came to China and committed those sins, they should have thought that they would not die well! ”

Lin Sen's crutches stomped hard, which was the final word.

"Those who take the lead in the war, they should be approved. Chop off the head, chop off the waist and chop the waist is polite! As for those below, atone for their own sins! Lin Sen sneered: "If you don't die like this, then let them go back after the battle." ”

The officials of the coalition government couldn't help but shudder when they heard this, and none of the railway routes planned by Lin Sen and the coalition government were easy to follow.

Not to mention repairing, even if it is usually transported, there will be accidents from time to time. Let those Japanese people go, and still build roads. This is clearly a life of nine deaths!

"Our coalition government is very poor right now, and they have to earn what they need to eat." Lin Sen said very directly: "If you can't earn it, starve to death and pull it down!" As for those who chirp crookedly, if they are uncomfortable, you can also build roads! ”

Now it's clean. No one really mentions it anymore. The prestige in the national capital, Lin Sen is the greatest. This can be seen from the fact that Wang Zhaoming had to borrow his name when he set up another government.

Under the old guy's order, no one really talked anymore.

And Tu Menghu was watching from the sidelines, sneering in his heart. How does he not understand the minds of these people?! There are still people trying to find a way out for themselves!

This is also the habit left by the officials of the government at that time, and it is difficult to straighten up when the waist is bent.

"Onodera, if the Wehrmacht comes in. You can help me make a mistake......" Shunroku Hatata, who was lying on the hospital bed, was dying, and said to the medical soldiers who came to take care of him, "There is still ...... My command knife, smashed it and threw it into the river. I don't want it to be in the trophies of the Wehrmacht......"

ps: My wife has a fever, and the fever is 39 degrees 4. It scared the hell out of me...... Rushed her to the hospital, but fortunately there was nothing wrong. Alas......
