Volume 1: Battle of Songhu Chapter 146 Shaking Chongqing

On the afternoon of the day when Ye Ruxue joined the military commander Biedong team, the news that the 19th detachment of the anti-Japanese salvation army in southern Anhui completed a shocking counterattack and completely annihilated the small Japanese independent mixed into the main force of the 14th brigade in Hulu Valley reached Luojiawan No. 16 in Chongqing.

"Borrowing the corpse to return the soul, the bureau, this is borrowing the corpse to return the soul" Mao Renfeng waved the telegram and roared in a low voice.

"Xu Nineteen's apostasy is really fake? This guy is really reckless. Dai Li's eyes flickered, his expression looked a little strange, both admiration, and amazement, and there seemed to be a faint annoyance, Dai Li was really a little annoyed, he felt that he was being tricked, didn't he deliberately want him to make a fool of himself?

"Bureau, now the hunt and kill order for Xu Shijiu should be lifted, right?" Mao Renfeng, who was watching coldly, was inevitably a little proud, at the beginning, he had said that Xu Shijiu's apostasy was suspicious, and he also persuaded Dai Li to act cautiously and not to easily send a biedong team to eradicate him, but unfortunately Dai Li just didn't listen to persuasion.

However, fortunately, the Biedong team sent by the military commander had just arrived in Longkou.

Xu Nineteen's side had already shown his way out, and the counterattack was successful in one fell swoop.

"The hunt and kill order for Xu 19 will be lifted immediately." Dai Li snorted, it turned out that Xu Shijiu's apostasy was fake at all, so what reason was there to hunt him down? At least for now, the military commander has no reason to kill him, and the military commander will even rely on Xu Shijiu's help to restore the Silk Road connecting Shanghai and Chongqing.

Thinking about it, Dai Li said again: "However, the Biedong team doesn't have to come back, just stay in Longkou." ”

Mao Renfeng hummed lightly, and asked Dai Li: "Bureau, this time the movement of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in southern Anhui is really not small, and I am afraid that the commission seat will not be able to hide it, so you should report it earlier." ”

Dai Li nodded silently, what Mao Renfeng said was undoubtedly right, Xu Shijiu's singing of the soul of the borrowed corpse is really very beautiful, and the 19th detachment of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in southern Anhui made a lot of noise this time, not only completely annihilated the main force of the 14th Brigade of the Little Japanese Independent Mix, but even killed a major general brigade of Little Japan

From the full-scale outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War to the present, how many Japanese generals have only been killed by the national army? I'm afraid that two slaps can be counted, and most of them are posthumously awarded the rank of major general by the Japanese army base camp after they died in battle, and the real major general killed, Fujido Takaei seems to be the third

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to hide Xu Shijiu's affairs again, so it is better to report it to the old man as soon as possible

At that moment, Dai stood up, took the wide-brimmed hat from the coat rack, and then turned and hurried out of the office

(Dividing Line)

Chairman Chiang has been in a pretty good mood these days.

Because, the Military Commission had just received a telegram from Luo Zhuoying from Shanggao, Wang Yaowu's 74th Army had just fought a battle with the 33rd Division of Little Japan, and annihilated the two infantry brigades in front of the 33rd Division in one fell swoop.

The artillery of the national army has finally formed a climate.

Speaking of which, the weapons and equipment aided by the Americans are powerful, and the performance of the American howitzer is much stronger than that of the mountain artillery and field artillery of small Japan.

Thinking of this, Chairman Chiang inevitably felt some regrets in his heart: The economic aid given by the Americans is still too small, with only $50 million, and it is really impossible to buy much weapons and equipment, and if the US Government gives 500 million yuan, Chairman Chiang will be able to arm at least 10 74 th armies in the blink of an eye, what kind of pattern should it be?

If Chairman Chiang really had 10 74 armies in his hands, he would dare to launch a major strategic counteroffensive

The more Chairman Chiang thought about it, the more regretful he felt, so he immediately summoned Wang Shihe, the chief of the guard, and asked him to immediately send a telegram to Madame Chiang, who was far away on the other side of the ocean, and asked her to try by all means to get more economic aid from the US Government no matter what.

In fact, Chairman Chiang, who had never been to the United States, did not know that he had been deceived by his good wife.

If the first batch of $50 million in free aid provided by the US Government is used to purchase weapons and equipment, how can it not only arm the 74th Army?

With 50 million US dollars, all weapons and equipment are bought, and it is enough to arm the five 74th armies

In the United States at that time, the NlAI semi-automatic rifle was only UU dollars, the Thomson submachine gun was only 70 US dollars, the Browning bar1918 light machine gun was only 300 US dollars a piece, and if 50 million US dollars were all used to buy arms, it could buy 160,000 machine guns, 800,000 semi-automatic rifles, 8,000 10m caliber field howitzers, UU 36 fighters, and billions of bullets

If the $50 million is divided into four parts and used to purchase assault rifles, machine guns, artillery, and ammunition, it will be possible to buy at least 200,000 semi-automatic rifles, 40,000 light machine guns, 2,000 cannons and 250 million rounds of ammunition.

As a matter of fact, as soon as the $50 million in free economic aid allocated by the US government to the Nationalist Government was set aside, $45 million of it was immediately deposited in Citibank in the name of the Soong consortium.

It is no exaggeration to say that the 5,000 US dollars is China's life-saving money, but the Song family dares to stretch out their hands and be greedy for ink

Moreover, the Song family swallowed $45 million of it with a single mouth, and only used a measly $5 million to buy weapons and ammunition, so the later elected US President Truman was extremely angry and said that all the senior bureaucrats of the Nationalist Government, including Chairman Chiang, should be sent to prison

It's just that Chairman Chiang doesn't know this, because he doesn't know the prices of goods in the United States, so now, Chairman Chiang is still in a good mood, and he is counting on his wife and uncle to continue their activities in the United States and win more economic aid, but soon, Chairman Chiang's good mood was ruined by the news brought by Dai Li.

The Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in Southern Anhui actually annihilated the main force of the 14th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade?

Xu Nineteen, the remnant of the Nineteenth Route Army, actually sang a big drama in southern Anhui?

"Bench, this matter must be handled carefully." Dai Lian didn't care about touching the mold, and reminded him in a low voice.

Chairman Jiang was silent, Dai Li was right, today's Xu 19 is no longer the remnant of the small 19th Route Army, he already has a whole detachment plus a county town, and the Hulu Valley has made the 19th Detachment of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in southern Anhui prestigious.

can yujian, for a long time to come, little Japan may not take the initiative to provoke him again.

After all, now the main direction of attack of the Xiao Ri Army is Changsha, and their main goal is to cut off the Pinghan Railway.

As for Longkou, it is not worth mentioning at all at the level of the entire grand strategy, and even the whole of southern Anhui is of little significance to small Japan, and the seizure of southern Anhui is nothing more than the expansion of the strategic depth on both sides of the Yangtze River by several hundred miles, which is completely disproportionate compared with the price that needs to be paid.

It can be basically concluded that before the capture of Changsha, it is impossible for little Japan to launch an offensive in southern Anhui

"Niang Xipi, it seems that I still underestimated the remnants of the Nineteenth Route Army, I really didn't expect that he would be able to make such a big scene in southern Anhui." Chairman Jiang scratched his shiny bald head and asked Dai Li coldly, "Yunong, are you sure that your military commander will kill with one blow?" ”

If the military commander was sure that he would kill with one blow, Chairman Chiang would still be more inclined to kill Xu 19 and never suffer in the future.

Dai Li shook his head and said in a low voice: "Although the biedong team sent has reached Longkou, it may not be easy to kill Xu Shijiu, because Xu Shijiu has several guards around him at all times to protect him, and he himself is a very powerful master, the captain of the small Japanese special operations team, Owara Shigemi, is powerless in the face of Xu Shigenu." ”

Xu Shijiu's battle with Ohara Shigemi has now spread among the high-level leaders of the national army and the Japanese army.
