"Stupid! It's just a rat's eye! Huang Ke's angry shouting and scolding came from the office of the first department of the Ministry of National Defense.

The subordinate senior generals all stood there and stopped talking, and all of them turned their eyes to Bai Chongxi, the chief of staff of the United States and Britain who had just described it.

Bai Chongxi ignored everyone's strange eyes, he stepped forward and continued: "The U.S. government has adopted a neutral attitude. ”

Huang Ke said angrily: "The Americans are lifting a stone to shoot themselves in the foot, don't look at Japan, the country is not big, but the ambition is not small, Southeast Asia, the Pacific, and even the South Pacific are all within the scope of their ambition, aren't the Americans lifting a stone to shoot themselves in the foot?" ”

"The repatriation of workers from Germany has had some impact on the industrial process, and there is already a shortage of teachers in many technical schools, especially in the military sector." Another general of the logistics department also said with some concern.

Huang Ke frowned, and after a moment of silence, he said: "During the war, technical schools can combine production and learning, and don't stick to the teaching form of the past. There are also workers who can be recruited and trained from the society, and special methods must be adopted in special periods, so that they cannot always be stuck in the neck. ”

The general nodded. As soon as the end of the war begins, not only the pressure on the front line is great, but also the logistical pressure is even more serious. In this regard, the Ministry of Finance is quite supportive, and Kong Xiangxi basically adheres to the principle of special affairs for the front-line money, and there is no bottleneck in this.

Huang Ke did not continue to ask questions, he said that he would let the people of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs get in touch with the United States and seek more American assistance.

As for the foreign aid, Jiang Baili was obviously more worried, he said: "Now the Japanese Navy has completely blocked the sea surface of our country, except for some ships in the Hong Kong area, all other ships are within the scope of the Japanese blockade. Not long ago, the Japanese even sank several of our civilian freighters, and now it seems that even if there is assistance, it may not be able to transport it in. But fortunately, there is a Yunnan-Burma highway. ”

When it comes to the Yunnan-Burma Highway, Huang Ke's anger seems to be less, when he tried his best to transfer Batu and his cavalry troops from the vast northern grasslands to Yunnan to build the road, but he suffered a lot of saliva behind him, and he firmly believed that history would prove that the construction of the Yunnan-Burma Highway was the right choice.

"Where is Batu now?" Thinking of the Yunnan-Burma Highway, Huang Ke remembered Batu.

A general in charge of personnel deployment stepped forward and said: "After the Yunnan-Burma Highway was repaired, General Batu led his troops to Guangxi after resting, where a railway needed to be built. ”

Huang Ke nodded, was silent for a moment and did not speak. This honest Mongolian man followed himself from Guangzhou to raise troops, Jin Ge Iron Horse should have been famous, battlefield killing, for the needs of development, he resolutely got off the horse and took those once brave and good cavalry to the jungle of Yunnan, they put down their knives and picked up shovels...... Behind this, there is the huge dedication of countless soldiers.

Thinking of this, Huang Ke, who has always been cold-blooded, couldn't help but be a little moved.

However, the military meeting did not allow him to think too much, and a moment later, the intelligence of the Songhu front was summarized and sent up, and a staff officer made a report.

"The Songhu Frontline Operational Command reported: The Japanese army landed two days ago under the leadership of Matsui Ishine himself, the 3rd and 9th divisions, and began to attack our army from Zhabei as a base. Subsequently, the 13th and 101st Divisions, the Shigeto Detachment composed of Taiwanese, and the Shanghai Dispatch Army composed of the 5th Field Heavy Artillery Brigade were organized to land and began to continuously attack the periphery. Our Songhu Armed Police Corps, the 9th, 10th, 15th, 19th, and 21st Group Armies have also been deployed in place, and the Songhu Armed Police Corps, which is at the forefront of the battle, is now suffering heavy casualties, but they are still sticking to the front line, and the captain Sun Liren has repeatedly refused to withdraw from the battle, and his courage is commendable! Zhang Zhizhong, commander of the Songhu Front Command. ”

After listening to the report, Jiang Baili sighed and said: "Shanghai is fighting very hard! The troops consume a lot every day, and the hundreds of thousands of troops of the two armies, in addition to equipment and logistics, are more courageous and confident. ”

"Hmm!" Huang Ke nodded and said: "The soldiers on the front line are fighting very hard, I think we should go to the front line to boost morale, let's not divide the troops into three routes, take a day, and go to Shanghai, Shandong and Northeast respectively." ”

As he spoke, Huang Ke asked Jiang Baili and Jiang Zhongzheng, who were standing aside, with his eyes, Jiang Zhongzheng nodded and said in a Fenghua accent: "I think it's okay!" In this way, I'll go to the Northeast Battlefield! It's better to meet Zhang Xueliang, a sworn brother. ”

"Brother Baili, let's go to Shandong, I'll go to Shanghai." Huang Ke made an allocation, Jiang Baili nodded in agreement, he knew that Huang Ke was deliberately taking care of him, after all, Shandong is now a confrontational situation, and the most fierce battle is Shanghai, leaving the dangerous place to himself is Huang Ke's code of conduct.

After discussing and deciding, Huang Ke arranged the command work in the army, and prepared to go to Shanghai under absolute secrecy to inspect and express his condolences to the combat units on the front line.

When Huang Ke's side was about to leave, Sun Liren was already deploying a bold combat operation. A few days earlier, Matsui Ishine led his troops to land in Shanghai, bankrupting the original plan to destroy the Japanese marines.

Under the strong offensive of the superior forces of the Japanese army, the Songhu Armed Police Corps had to abandon the important strongholds such as the headquarters building of the Japanese Special Marine Corps, which had been occupied by heavy casualties, and the Japanese army immediately occupied Zhabei and expanded the strength of the reinforcements, and at the same time the arriving heavy artillery brigades began to deploy artillery positions and shelled the positions of the Chinese army day and night. The artillery of the Chinese army and the artillery of Songhu also began to counterattack, and the artillery battles between the two sides often came and went.

This artillery position had a great impact on the Chinese army, and the air force organized bombing many times, but they were all blocked by the Japanese naval air force, and there was no specific location of the enemy's artillery position, so the air force bombing could not continue.

Almost at the same time, a large number of reinforcements of the Chinese army also arrived, and Zhang Zhizhong, the newly appointed commander of the Songhu Theater, saw that the armed police corps had suffered heavy casualties, and wanted to let the 9th Army take their place and change them to rest and recuperate, but Sun Liren did not agree, he asked Zhang Zhizhong to let them fight for a few more days, after all, they were unwilling to withdraw like this!

Zhang Zhizhong saw that the morale was available, so he gave them a day, saying that if they had not achieved major results in one day, they would be withdrawn to rest. Sun Liren agreed without even thinking about it.

In the Zhabei and Hongkou areas, the positions of the Japanese army and the Chinese army were already intertwined, and the two sides continued to attack each other, fighting in regiments, battalions, companies, and even in platoons. Sometimes a building has to be fought over and over again, and most of the buildings in the urban area of Shanghai are destroyed in a few days of fierce fighting, and many streets are in ruins, and the fierceness of the battle is unimaginable!

The strength of the Songhu Armed Police Corps has now been concentrated, and several brigades are distributed in a line, and they are also the main targets of the Japanese artillery shelling.

Each brigade guarded various positions and strongholds, and Sun Liren's headquarters was set up in the middle. As night came, Sun Liren thought that the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on the Japanese army had arrived.

He dispatched a squadron of a large group of hundreds of officers and men to change into Japanese military uniforms and helmets, and under the leadership of several captured bean tanks, they planted Japanese plaster flags and drove towards the Japanese positions in the night.

When night fell, there was a rare moment of silence on the battlefield, and the soldiers of the two armies did not rest, looking at each other's positions with wide eyes, and even the slightest movement at this time would arouse someone's vigilance.

At this time, a rapid gunfire rang out, tracer bullets drew a line of fire back and forth in the air, and the Japanese troops hiding behind the fortifications immediately moved, and between the guns, they saw a team with the Japanese flag fighting and retreating to the Japanese position under the guidance of the tank.

The Japanese officers and soldiers were not surprised when they saw it, there were too many troops during this time, and the positions on the front line were also staggered, and there were troops moving every day, and when they saw that it was the Japanese flag, they didn't pay much attention to it, and the soldiers driving the tanks greeted them and drove back with a swagger.

Zhang Zhiyun, the captain of the team, raised his hand to look at his watch, it was already a quarter past zero, and according to the direction of the reconnaissance unit, they could reach the Japanese artillery position in another half an hour, but because the exact location was not known, they still had to explore.

Captain Zhang Zhiyun originally studied in Japan, spoke fluent Japanese, and was not nervous when marching behind the Japanese army. However, time passed little by little, and if the Japanese artillery positions could not be found before dawn, I am afraid that they would be forced to return, because they could be exposed at any time after dawn.

Zhang Zhiyun couldn't help but be a little anxious, he looked back at the brothers who were marching, these more than 100 brothers had followed him since a few years ago, and it was up to him if he could bring them back today. Zhang Zhiyun knows that the longer the time, the greater the likelihood of exposure.

The troops were moving forward, and Zhang Zhiyun also sent people to investigate. Bang! Suddenly, the sound of cannons roaring like thunder in the sky rang out, and everyone followed the sound of the sound of cannons in a clearing in the northwest corner.

It turned out that the Japanese artillery had once again launched an artillery bombardment of our positions, but this time they did not wait for the counterattack of the Chinese artillery, because their shelling had already exposed their position.

After Zhang Zhiyun heard the sound of the artillery bombardment, he immediately conveyed the battle order, and the soldiers immediately reorganized their equipment and rushed excitedly towards the place where the artillery roared......

(Today's South China Sea arbitration, in fact, is just a small episode of the South China Sea issue, and this arbitration case, which is full of loopholes and abuses international law, can be treated calmly, directly ignored, not accepted, not recognized, and ignored.) A dog that can bite doesn't bark, and the more fiercely others bark, the more it means that he is in a hurry. ）
