For the country of Korea, Chen Feng did not have a good impression of the country at the same time, but also felt that this country has no need to exist at all, Korea has always been a subject state of China in history, and its status is the same as that of Ryukyu, Annam and other countries, and it only broke away from the Chinese government when the Western powers invaded Asia.

Thinking about the fact that the Northern Dynasties and South Korea in later generations have created so much trouble for China, especially the all-encompassing plagiarism of the sticks, Chen Feng really feels that there is no need for this country to exist. Since Zhuoer Xiaoguo still dared to jump out and shout at this time, Chen Feng felt that there was no need to give them a good face!

After thinking twice, Chen Feng decided to exert pressure on the Nationalist Government to expel the provisional government of the Republic of Korea from China as much as possible.

Soon a telegram sent from the headquarters of the Eighth Theater of Operations in Guisui to the camp in Chongqing was urgently sent to Lao Chiang's desk, the content of the telegram was very brief, but the wording was extremely harsh, this was written by Chen Feng, the commander of the Eighth Theater and the first-class general of the Nationalist Government, to Lao Chiang, in view of the irresponsible remarks made by the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea in the bombing of the Japanese puppet military bases in Pyongyang and Busan, and the bad impact caused, the Eighth Theater Commander's Department applied to the government to expel him from China.

After reading the telegram, he called Dai Li and He Yingqin and asked them to go to No. 38 Lotus Pond, Qixinggang, Yuzhong District, and let them talk to Kim Jiu, President of the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea, in person, hoping that they would publicly apologize to Chen Feng's department, after all, there was no big mistake in what Chen Feng's department did.

More importantly, now the second Battle of Changsha has reached its most intense time. In order to support the government's war against Japan, the Eighth Theater even mobilized nearly 200,000 troops to launch the Battle of Southern Hebei.

However, what made Lao Jiang feel depressed was that Jin Jiu, the head of the provisional government of the Republic of Korea, actually clearly replied to He Yingqin, who came to visit him, that they would not apologize to Chen Feng's subordinates. Because more than 10,000 North Korean people who died tragically under Chen Feng's plane will not agree to them bowing to Chen Feng, a war criminal!

The reason why Jin Jiu dared to say this was because he felt that the act of dropping aerial bombs on densely populated cities in an open violation of international conventions by Chen Feng's subordinates would inevitably arouse opposition from the people of other countries in the world, especially the United States and Britain. Moreover, he had already received a telegram from Syngman Rhee in Washington, D.C., and now there were voices opposing Chen Feng in newspapers and magazines in the United States. And it's growing.

Kim Koo felt that this was a good time for the provisional government of the Republic of Korea to expand its prestige. For a long time, the provisional government of the Republic of Korea was unknown, and although they had been recognized by the Nationalist Government, France, Poland and other countries, the United States and Britain did not recognize their existence, and even the Japanese did not care about them. For nearly twenty years, they were not even threatened by the Japanese. This is blatant disregard.

The Japanese ignored them. It's all because their threat to Japan is almost negligible, and there are not many people in the entire Korean Peninsula who know about them, and even they are not as famous as the fat golden man in the north in Korea. This made Jin Jiu and the others extremely depressed.

After learning that Chen Feng's troops had bombed Pyongyang and Busan, especially at a press conference held by the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and after learning that the bombing had caused more than 10,000 casualties among North Korean civilians, Jin Jiu's first reaction was not anger, but ecstatic.

After so many years in China, he understands the political situation in China. For Chen Feng, a big warlord who has risen like the wind, Jin Jiu and the others are envious, jealous and hateful, especially Chen Feng, a young man who is only in his twenties, and his personal prestige has reached a point where they can't reach and can only look up, all of which makes Jin Jiu and the others crazy.

Jin Jiu was very happy to learn that Chen Feng's attack had caused a large number of casualties among North Korean civilians, and with Chen Feng's prestige in the world world, as long as the Republic of Korea stood up to fight for the Korean civilians at this time, then the prestige of the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea would certainly be greatly enhanced in a short period of time.

It was precisely under the support of this kind of thinking that Jin Jiu and the others would ignore the advice of He Yingqin and others and make a decision that they would regret for the rest of their lives.

Since people are unwilling, Lao Jiang has no choice. Although it is said that the provisional government of the Republic of Korea is indeed on his territory, it is worth mentioning that the people do not need the national government to provide a dime of funds, and they have their own sources of funds, as if they are an independent government, and the national government does not have any supervision power over them.

Lao Jiang had no choice but to tell Chen Feng the decision of Jin Jiu and the others, and let him see what he did! Lao Chiang also does not have much good impression of the provisional government of the Republic of Korea, and the weak must have the consciousness of the weak, and the provisional government of the Republic of Korea does not have this kind of self-knowledge.

Had it not been for the recognition that the provisional government of the Republic of Korea was the decision made by the former prime minister, Chiang would have driven this self-righteous provisional government out of China long ago.

After receiving the telegram from Lao Chiang, Chen Feng immediately responded, on the one hand, ordering the Northern Air Force to carry out large-scale air raids on all ports and important cities in Korea, and at the same time issuing an ultimatum to the provisional government of the Republic of Korea, and if they did not stand up and publicly apologize, the Eighth Theater would declare war on them.

This almost scoundrel ultimatum surprised Lao Jiang and the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea, they thought that Chen Feng would be angry, but they didn't expect Chen Feng to be so ignorant of the "overall situation", declaring war on the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea is not much pressure for Chen Feng's department, but for the Nationalist Government, it is a lot of pressure, after all, the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea is still an ally of the Nationalist Government on the surface, if Chen Feng's troops declare war with it, then where is the Nationalist Government?

Lao Jiang understood Chen Feng's temper, and he knew that the stunned young man could do anything, and even the powerful country of the Soviet Union dared to fight, let alone this provisional government without an inch of land. Moreover, Lao Jiang dared to conclude that once Chen Feng decided to declare war on this provisional government, it would not take a few days. Chen Feng's mysterious special forces will descend on Chongqing and deal the most brutal blow to the provisional government of the Republic of Korea.

Lao Jiang would never allow such a thing to happen, that was the biggest blow to the prestige of the Nationalist Government and his Jiang someone, and it was also Lao Jiang who called Chen Feng on the one hand, strictly ordering him not to act rashly, and at the same time sent He Yingqin and others to No. 38 Lotus Pond in Qixinggang again to meet with Jin Jiu and others, and sent Chen Feng's telegram to them and let them make their own decisions.

For Chen Feng, Jin Jiu and others also have a certain understanding. The Chinese warlord was half Mongol. He doesn't like to drag things out, as long as he believes that so many things will most likely not change. Now that the ultimatum had been issued in this official document, it meant that the Chinese general was ready to declare war on them.

Jin Jiu and the others panicked, they had all heard of Chen Feng's deeds. Especially the almost deified force under his command. Even the Japanese were repeatedly deflated in front of them. Not to mention them, maybe they only need to send an infantry battalion to wipe them out.

Jin Jiu and the others immediately convened an emergency meeting to discuss the matter. Not waiting for the results of the meeting to come out. They received an urgent telegram from the DPRK mainland that this morning, Chen Feng's air force again carried out large-scale air raids on Incheon and Seoul in the DPRK, and this time also caused a large number of civilian casualties.

When the news came, Jin Jiu and the others were both angry and afraid, the Chinese general really had no taboos, and dared to do so in this situation, which showed that people had nothing to fear, if they didn't give in, I was afraid that it wouldn't take long to suffer the worst blow, and in desperation, Jin Jiu and the others had no choice but to give in.

On November 25, the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea issued a public statement in the newspaper solemnly apologizing to the Eighth War Zone and to Chen Feng himself.

Soon, Chen Feng responded. First of all, Chen Feng greatly praised the attitude of the provisional government of the Republic of Korea in knowing its mistakes and being able to change them, and secondly, Chen Feng warned all Koreans that the DPRK has been a vassal state of China since ancient times, and that China and the DPRK have always maintained the most intimate relations, and this kind of friendly relationship has been maintained for thousands of years, and they are as close as brothers to each other, and there is no hatred at all.

Although the bombing of Pyongyang and Pusan by the Northern Air Force caused a certain number of Korean civilian casualties, it is important to know that their original intention was not to bomb the Koreans, but to prepare for the invasion and recovery of Korea by the Japanese army. Moreover, the Northern Air Force not only bombed North Korean towns such as Pyongyang, Seoul, and Busan, but also bombed China's Port Arthur and other places, causing huge losses, which was the inevitable price to be paid in the war.

Therefore, Chen Feng hopes that all North Koreans will see the essence of the matter clearly, not to get too close to the Japanese, and not to become the lackeys of the Japanese.

This time, the main reason for such a large-scale anti-Chinese incident in Korea was not the bombing of the Northern Air Force, but the deliberate instigation of Japanese colonialism, so the real culprits were the Japanese, not the Chinese.

After the eventual incident, Chen Feng was telling the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea and the Koreans on the Korean Peninsula to immediately stop the persecution and robbery of the Chinese, and those who violated the order would not be spared. At the same time, Chen Feng also demanded through the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea to all Koreans serving in the Japanese army to immediately lay down their arms, otherwise they would be completely regarded as Japanese, and even if the war ended in the future, they would be tried by military tribunals as war criminals.

Subsequently, Chen Feng ordered the troops on the southern Hebei front to continue to increase the intensity of the offensive, and be sure to break through the Japanese puppet army in front of them, since Kimura Hyotaro's troops were unwilling to release people, let alone surrender, then Chen Feng let Xu Fufu's troops continue to besiege Xingtai City, and other troops continued to attack other towns.

On November 29, Liu Li's division captured Hengshui, and severely damaged the Japanese army's sixth mixed brigade and the third tank division, the Japanese 21st division saw that Chen Feng's reinforcements were large, so he had to order the troops to retreat.

Subsequently, Hu Tiesheng's division also captured Nangong County, and the Japanese 114th Division immediately retreated to the junction of Shandong and Hebei, waiting for the instructions of the North China Front Headquarters, and by the end of November, Chen Feng's division captured most of the cities and towns in southern Hebei, and only two cities in southern Hebei, Xingtai and Handan, were still controlled by the Japanese puppet army.

However, on the periphery of these two cities, hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops were surrounded by less than 20,000 puppet regiments, neither attacking nor letting go of the main road, and the two sides faced off like this.

LU Nan. Zaozhuang.

Under the emergency rescue of Chen Feng's department. The remaining 38,000 people of the Shandong Military Region of the Eighth Route Army finally jumped out of the encirclement of the Japanese army, but the losses of the Eighth Route Army in this battle were not small, with more than 13,000 killed and more than 6,000 wounded.

However, the desperate resistance of the Eighth Route Army also caused huge losses to the two master regiments of the Japanese army, and because the 36th and 37th master regiments of the Japanese army were not formed for a long time, their combat effectiveness was not very strong. In these more than 20 days of fighting, although the two master regiments of the Japanese army had a certain advantage in weapons and equipment, they were far less than the Eighth Route Army in terms of strength, so they lost a lot of soldiers, and statistics were made after the war. The two regiments lost more than 7,000 soldiers. Among them, more than 3,600 people were killed in the war.

In the face of Chen Feng's incessant bombing and offensive, the North China Front had no way at all, and they also cooperated with the Japanese army stationed in Korea and the Kwantung Army to jointly inflict heavy damage on the long-range bombing units of the Northern Air Force. But nothing worked. With the cooperation of the early warning radar, Chen Feng's unit was always able to skillfully evade the interception of the Japanese air force. It even designed to inflict heavy damage on the Japanese aviation units stationed in Korea.

After Pyongyang, Busan, Incheon, and Seoul, several cities in North Korea were bombed by the Northern Air Force, in addition to the ports of Dalian and Dandong, as well as Yantai, which were also bombed by the Northern Air Force. Inflicted huge losses on the Japanese army.

As a result of the bombing by Chen Feng's unit, a large number of Koreans fled from the cities to the countryside, and they found that Chinese planes would not bomb the small cities and villages of the DPRK.

In view of the fact that Kimura Hyotaro and others were trapped in southern Hebei, the North China Front Command sent a telegram to the headquarters of the 12th Army, ordering Lieutenant General Iida Sadagu to take over the command of the front line and unify the command of the Japanese puppet forces in Shandong and southern Hebei, and the North China Front Command asked Iida Sadagu to rescue Kimura Hyotaro and the soldiers of the trapped 32nd Division at all costs.

After Iida Zhengu took over the command, he immediately moved the headquarters from southern Hebei to Liaocheng, Shandong, and at the same time ordered the Japanese army to retreat to Cangzhou to prevent Chen Feng's troops from attacking Tianjin. The 3rd and 21st Chariot Divisions immediately went south and stood by on the periphery of Nangong.

At the same time, the 114th Division of the Japanese Army, the 3rd and 8th Infantry Divisions of the puppet army, and the 4 infantry brigades of Ma Liangsuo's division were urgently transferred to the front line to cooperate with the 114th Division.

In addition, the 36th and 37th divisions of the Japanese army, which had just finished fighting in the Zaozhuang direction, also received orders, and the headquarters of the 12th Army asked them to enter Zhanguan County in the shortest possible time.

On December 1, the headquarters of the 12th Army of the Japanese Army ordered that a total of 160,000 soldiers from 4 infantry divisions and 1 chariot division, 3 puppet infantry divisions, 4 puppet infantry brigades, and 3 artillery brigades under its command were divided into two routes, all the way out of Linqing and Linxi, and then along Weixian, Jize and Nanhe, and directly attacked Xingtai. The other road is out of Guanxian County, passing through Guangping, Feixiang and other counties, and the soldiers are pointing directly at Handan.

Iida Sadagu's goal is very clear, he knows that the road is losing air supremacy, and the ground forces are not dominant, and the southern Hebei is just sandwiched between the first, second, and eighth theaters of the Chinese war, and it is probably impossible to take it back, so his main task this time is to rescue Lieutenant General Kimura Hyotaro.

While major changes had taken place in the Battle of Southern Hebei, the Battle of Changsha had already entered a climax. Due to the fact that the intelligence was repeatedly deciphered by the Japanese army, the troop movement and defense forces in the Ninth Theater were open in front of the Japanese army, and the headquarters of the 11th Army of the Japanese Army adjusted the deployment of troops in a timely manner according to the troop movement in the Ninth Theater.

Therefore, the Ninth Theater's attempt to fight a decisive battle with the Japanese army on both sides of the Miluo River and destroy the main force of the Japanese army not only failed to materialize, but the various armies that were serving as garrisons in this direction were broken by the Japanese army and suffered heavy losses.

On November 17, the Japanese 3rd, 6th, and 40th Divisions, the Hayabuchi Detachment, and the Araki Detachment broke through the defenses of the Chinese 37th, 26th, and 10th Armies south of the Miluo River, and then advanced southward, successively reaching the north bank of the Laodao River, approaching Changsha.

The Ninth Theater made timely adjustments and ordered the 99th Army, 72nd Army, 26th Army, 74th Army, 79th Army, Provisional 2nd Army, and 37th Army to urgently station in the north and south of the Laodao River to defend Changsha. The specific combat order was: "The 79th Army should garrison the north and south areas of the Laodao River and defend the periphery of Changsha; The vanguard of the 2nd Army was provisionally formed into the 8th Division, which arrived in Langli City on the 20th and stood by; The 74th Army should advance to Huanghua City with two divisions at the same time, occupy positions on the lines of Xiajiatang, Chunhua Mountain, Chishi River, and Lizui, and meet the Japanese army advancing south. ”

However, the telegram of the Ninth Theater was stolen and deciphered by the Japanese special intelligence department, and Anan Weiji believed: "The 74th Army is one of the most elite units in Chiang Kai-shek's central system, and since the first Battle of Changsha, it has fought with the 11th Army many times, and is the old opponent of the 11th Army. ”

Therefore, the commander of the 11th Army, Anan, immediately adjusted the deployment and ordered the 3rd Division to advance south of the Laodao River; The 6th Division was relieved of its original mission of occupying Pingjiang, and instead advanced to the Laodao River Valley to block the 74th Army; The 40th Division was ordered to move south after sweeping the area near Jinjing.
