"Great victory, great victory! Changshu victory! Jiangjiacun is a big victory! ”

"Great victory, great victory! General Wang Weiyi made another miraculous achievement, annihilated the 65th Wing of the Japanese Brigade, and captured the three major Zuo of the Japanese chieftain Qing Kouwu! ”

"Great victory, great victory! The god of war Wang Weiyi Jiangjia Village angrily destroyed the Japanese Kou! ”

The shouts of the newsboys sounded in Nanjing, Wuhan, and Guangzhou, and in every city in China!

All the people knew this exciting news for the first time:

The invincible Japanese army, a whole wing was completely annihilated, and their wing commander even became a prisoner!

What could be more exciting?

Wang Weiyi - that Wang Weiyi again:

Murderer - Wang Weiyi!

Wang Weiyi in the Battle of Sanhe Bridge; Wang Weiyi of Songjiang Xiguan; Wang Weiyi, who eliminated traitors in the French Concession; Wang Weiyi, who saved people from the post office - and then, Wang Weiyi of the great victory in Jiangjia Village!

He brought one victory after another to the people, and he brought miracles to the people!

When the Battle of Shanghai ended and the Chinese troops began to withdraw, the mood of the Chinese people was gloomy at that moment. Many of them even became confused at one point:

Can China win?

At this time, Wang Weiyi was born, and he told all the Chinese people one miracle victory after another:

Yes!

Now, almost all of China is singing this name:

God of War - Wang Weiyi!

The victory of Jiangjiacun brought great confidence to the Chinese people, and the enthusiasm for the War of Resistance was infinitely ignited. And this, however, completely angered the Japanese.

Especially Matsui Ishone!

He was a hard-line war, believing that only by conquest of the whole of China by force could the war be completely ended.

At a time when the Japanese government was forced to temporarily suspend the war for three months under international pressure. Matsui tried his best to mobilize all his connections to call out for the war, and in the end he achieved good results.

So, the battle end is reopened!

The battle that took place in Changshu was not a full-scale attack, but a tentative attack, and Matsui Ishine tried to concentrate his superior forces and take out the confidence of the Changshu defenders first:

Wang Weiyi and his Tiger Guard Brigade!

But what I didn't expect was. Far from succeeding, this plan caused the Japanese army to suffer the most terrible humiliation since the invasion of China:

An entire wing was annihilated, and even their wing commander, Gozo Kiyoguchi, became a prisoner!

Matsui Ishone didn't feel distressed. Only a flame of anger burned in his breast!

He finally won this opportunity to lead a powerful army and completely conquer China, adding the most important stroke to his military career. For this. He even repeatedly disobeyed the orders of the base camp.

Before the fall of Shanghai, the base camp organized the Shanghai Dispatch Army and the 10th Army Taiwan into the Central China Dispatch Army, and Matsui Ishine served as the commander of the front army; At the same time, the base camp set up a strategic limitation line between Suzhou and Jiaxing for the front army, and ordered the military operations of the front army not to exceed this limit. And Matsui Ishone, who has become a hardline on China, clamored from the beginning to attack Nanjing. Shanghai has fallen, the gateway to Nanjing has opened, and of course he will not stop there. After the fall of Shanghai, the Japanese Army General Staff Headquarters sent Section Chief Toroshiro Kawabe to contact Matsui. Matsui swore to him, "Don't worry. I have made up my mind, I have to take Nanjing to show you! He also presented to Kagesa Zhen, chief of the Strategy Division of the General Staff Headquarters, and Kaneshiro Shibayama, chief of the Military Affairs Division of the Ministry of the Army, who had come from Tokyo, "the necessity of attacking Nanjing."

After that, the Japanese troops pursued the retreating Chinese army. They have arrived at the strategic restriction line of the base camp. The units of the 10th Army were the first to break through the restriction line and pursue westward. Matsui not only did not stop it, but once again put forward the opinion to the base camp that "it is advantageous to pursue Nanjing". At his strong suggestion, the base camp lifted the original restriction line, and at the same time issued a new restriction line from Wuxi to Huzhou to the Central China Front.

The success of the first violation of the order fueled Matsui's arrogance. He ordered his troops to cross the restriction line again, and at the same time again proposed to the base camp: "In order to quickly resolve the incident, the Central China Front must take advantage of the current enemy's declining situation to capture Nanjing." "It comes at this time that Japan's China policy has undergone a major change." Before and after the "77" Incident and the "918" Incident, there were always differences between the two factions in the Japanese Government and the military that advocated a partial settlement of the Sino-Japanese dispute and a comprehensive settlement.

How painstakingly did he get it? Another defeat in the Battle of Changshu is likely to give Japan's domestic local settlement faction the upper hand again.

And this is something that Matsui Ishine will never allow!

Looking at Lieutenant General Tateshi Ogisu, the commander of the 13th Division, and the chief of staff, Yusaburo Tsukuda, who were standing in front of him, Matsui Ishone's face was so gloomy

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency, Commander, that we have brought the Empire to shame." Lieutenant General Ogishu Libing hung his head and said, "This is a letter from the Shina people, and it is a letter written by Kiyoguchi Gosa to his wife."

Matsui Shigen took it, and suddenly tore the letter to shreds with a few "brushes", and then threw it everywhere with a raised hand: "Does he still have the face to write to his wife?" Why didn't he commit suicide to serve the emperor? He is a coward of the Empire! ”

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency, Commander."

"I'm sorry not to hear anything!" Matsui Shigen roared angrily: "You have been defeated again and again in the hands of that Wang Weiyi, and the face of the imperial soldiers has been lost!" Now, even the flag of the 65th Wing has been lost, how can you let me face His Majesty the Emperor and all the people? ”

Ogisu Libing and Tsukuru Yusaburo didn't dare to say a word

They also knew very well why His Excellency the Commander was so angry about Lu, and this was not just the reason for a fiasco, but the tough attitude that would affect His Excellency the Commander's all-out war!

Those local war factions in China can now have a reason: China is not so easy to fight, look, look, you have suffered defeat

That's the most important impact

"Wang Weiyi, Wang Weiyi" Matsui Shigen kept chanting the name, and the name was like a thorn in his heart

When this man appeared, the invincible Imperial army suffered such a crushing defeat after defeat

"A few partial victories achieved by a general in China are not enough to change the situation on the entire battlefield." At this time, Major General Tsukada Tsuki, chief of staff of the Central China Front, said: "General Ogisu also did his best, but that branch of the army did behave differently, and I believe that any unit sent up will be the same."

Ogisu glanced at Tsukada Tsukasa gratefully

Matsui Ishone's anger decreased slightly: "Chief of Staff, what I'm worried about is not this defeat, but those people are going to start clamoring again. ”

Everyone in the headquarters knows who those people His Excellency Commander Dao is referring to: the local war faction in the country!

"Actually, there is a way." "When we fought in Shanghai before, we repeatedly disobeyed the orders of the base camp, but we won the same victory, and finally forced the base camp to fight according to our will. Now, I think we must get ahead of those people and restart the all-out offensive in advance, so that if we continue to win, we will be able to force the base camp to agree to our battle plan once again, and silence the people at home completely! ”

Matsui Ishine nodded slightly, and the words of the chief of staff spoke deeply to his heart

He suddenly said: "Order, all departments of my Central China Front Army to launch a general attack on the opposite side of the Zhina army!" Whoever breaks through the enemy's position first will be personally rewarded by His Majesty the Emperor! ”

"Hello! Break through the position of China and destroy China! ”

"Ogisu Libing!"

"In!"

"I will transfer the Ueno detachment that has newly arrived on the battlefield to your command, you immediately return to the front line, and after completing the convergence with the Ueno detachment, you will attack Changshu again!"

"Hello!"

Matsui Ishine stared at him coldly: "This time, I hope you don't let me down again!" ”

"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander!"

"And you, Tani Shofu!" Matsui Shigen's gaze fell on the commander of the Sixth Division, Gu Shoufu: "You have also suffered defeat under Wang Weiyi, and you have also launched an attack on the 26th Army on the flank of Changshu at the same time, so you must wash away the shame in one fell swoop!" ”

"Hello!" Gu Shoufu answered loudly, and then hesitated a little: "Your Excellency Commander, your grandson Sugawara-kun"

"Forget it, forget it, don't talk about him anymore." Matsui Shigen's face darkened suddenly: "I rescued him again and again, but he was captured by the people of China again and again, maybe this is fate." Ladies and gentlemen, as long as the entire Shina is defeated, Naomasa will be truly rescued. ”

Several division commanders straightened their chests together: "Defeat Changshu, defeat Nanjing, and rescue Sugawara Naomasa!" ”

"Let's go and prepare, three days later, we will officially launch a full-scale attack!" Matsui waved his hand.

When all the generals left, Matsui Ishone's face suddenly became very ugly again, and Tsukada knew very well what he was thinking: "Your Excellency Commander, I think it's better to send someone to find Naomasa again, maybe he is now in the hands of Wang Weiyi again."

"Tsukada-kun." Matsui Shigen let out a long sigh: "For the sake of Naozheng, we have spent too much effort to give a lot of military supplies to the people of China for nothing, if this matter is publicized, it will cause an uproar in the country." For the sake of the future of the empire, leave him alone for the time being."

"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander."

Matsui Ishone's gaze looked numbly at the sky outside: "There will come a day, I think I will definitely meet Naomasa again!" (To be continued.) )
