Xu Shijiu's heart froze, and at this time, the headquarters suddenly called, could it be that Jihua had changed? But the decapitation operation of the blasting naval headquarters has begun, just like the arrow that is shot out can no longer be recovered, if the operation is forcibly stopped, it is likely to miss the opportunity to blast the naval headquarters forever, and at the moment Xu Shijiu shouted at the one-eyed dragon: "Ah Long, go!" ”

It's a pity that Zhu Xia's reaction was not slow, and in an instant he also came back to his senses, and shouted: "Slow!" ”

Xu Shijiu shouted: "The time for the general attack is almost up, as soon as the artillery of the 8th and 10th artillery regiments sounds, we will no longer have a chance to break into the Japanese concession, this matter must not be delayed any longer, Ah Long, act immediately!" ”

The one-eyed dragon looked at Zhu Xia and then at Xu Shijiu, and didn't know what to do for a while.

Elder Cao Baba stepped forward and gasped, "Captain, take a seat, and call the headquarters." ”

"Ah Jiu, answer the phone first." Zhu Xia pushed Xu Shijiu and walked towards the team headquarters, the members of the queue looked at each other, Xie Gouzi and Gao Maniac, who had already stepped on the motorcycle, also had tangled expressions, it was not easy to make the decision to die calmly, and now they had to sit here and wait, that kind of bad feeling can make people crazy!

As Xu Nineteen expected, the order for the dawn general attack was indeed canceled.

"The general attack can be postponed, but the beheading operation must not be postponed, and it must be carried out as originally planned." Xu Shijiu put down the phone heavily and said to Zhu Xia categorically.

"Nope." Zhu Xia said categorically, "Shangfeng's order is to postpone all actions, including the beheading operation. ”

"Old Zhu, Chief of Staff Zhu!" Xu Shijiu hurriedly said, "You don't know the situation, Ah Long's informant has already set off from the Navy Hospital in a field ambulance, whether the beheading operation is carried out or not, he has been exposed, if we miss today, I am afraid we will no longer have the opportunity to blast the Navy Headquarters!" ”

"Either way, the beheading operation must be postponed!" Zhu Xia didn't allow Xu to say anything at all, and said categorically, "This is Commander-in-Chief Zhang's military order, and it is also the leader's will, which must be implemented to the letter." ”

"Commander-in-Chief Zhang's military order? The will of the leader? Xu Shijiu shook his head and sat back in his chair, "The Songhu War of Resistance, we have already lost before the start of the war, and we have lost ......."

"Xu Nineteen, it's alarmist." Zhu Xia was quite displeased when he heard this.

"Alarmist?" Xu Shijiu said miserably, "Chief of Staff, why do you pretend to speak against your will?

If the war starts at this time, the Japanese troops stationed in Shanghai are not well prepared, and the first batch of reinforcements is even more tiring, and our army still has the opportunity to drive them down the Huangpu River in one go. ”

Zhu Xia said disapprovingly: "Even if we fight in the streets, our army may not lose to the Japanese army." ”

Xu Shijiu took out the two books "Japanese Infantry Drill Manual" and "Army University Infantry Artillery Coordinated Tactics" from the drawer, shook the pages of the book to Zhu Xia again, and sighed: "You can help me get these two books, I guess I have also studied the Japanese army, do you think you Lu University officers can beat the Japanese Army officers?" ”

Zhu Xia retorted: "On the basis of military thinking and military theory, Japanese officers are indeed more solid than us, but our group of people are all from the battlefield to fight with real swords and guns, and they have more experience in actual combat, and the two sides have each other's advantages and disadvantages. ”

"Five-five?" Xu Shijiu said abruptly, "I will say a word of punishment, with the same strength and the same level of equipment, you Lu officers will fight against the Japanese Lu officers, and if you can win one out of ten battles, you should burn high incense!" If you take into account the constraints you have on you, you may not even be able to win a battle. ”

Zhu Xia said unhappily: "Xu Nineteen, please don't grow the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige!" ”

Just as Scar and one hand were standing at the door and probing his brain to look inside, Zhu Xia ordered angrily: "Old Dao, you go and disband the troops, everything was a drill before, tell the brothers, Shangfeng is very satisfied with their performance, especially Xie Gouzi and Gao Maniac, I will ask the headquarters for a reward." ”

Exercise? Scar, one hand looks at each other.

At dawn on August 12, the guns of the national army finally did not sound.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, Okawa Uchiden Qi summoned more than a dozen infantry, artillery, and chariot commanders to begin dividing the defense area.

The old devil in Okawauchi didn't know that he had just escaped a death catastrophe, and he was walking around the long conference table with his lap legs, walking to the map posted on the wall at the other end of the conference room, and then pointed to the map with a bamboo pole: "The 3rd Infantry Brigade is equipped with the 3rd Mortar Squadron and the 3rd Chariot Detachment, guarding the Bazi Bridge and along the Shanghai-Hangzhou Railway.

The 1st Infantry Brigade is equipped with the 1st Tank Detachment to guard the area of Zhizhi University and Hongkou Park.

The 6th Infantry Brigade and the 2nd Infantry Brigade are equipped with the 1st Mortar Squadron to guard the Yangshupu area.

The 5th Infantry Brigade is equipped with the 2nd Mortar Squadron and the 2nd Combat Vehicle Detachment, which is guarding the Hujiang University, the Gongda Yarn Mill, and the Navy Club.

The rest of the infantry brigades, artillery squadrons and tank detachments are the general reserves. ”

With the arrangement of Okawa Uchidenqi, one after another the Japanese commanders suddenly got up from their seats, and all the dozen or so officers in Zuihou had already stood up.

The old devil Ouchi put down the bamboo pole again, and said with a serious expression: "Ladies and gentlemen, it was not easy for Okamoto-kun to move the consulates of Western countries in Shanghai to put pressure on the government of China, which bought us two days to prepare. ”

"Hello." More than a dozen devil officers snapped to the ground and bowed their heads suddenly.

The old devil in Okawa pulled the hem of his military uniform again, and then stood upright facing the east, shouting with a fanatical expression: "In this battle, my generation should fight bravely to kill the enemy with the will to die and supreme courage, and should present the head and blood of the people of China, as well as the fertile territory of the country of China, to the emperor Bixia, long live the empire, long live the emperor Bixia." ”

At 9 o'clock in the morning, the one-eyed dragon walked into the headquarters of the 19th Brigade in a rage.

"Captain, counselor, the plainclothes of the Japanese secret service have arrested my informant, although Boss Du has promised to come forward to protect the person, but I estimate that there is more luck and less luck, and the explosives we hid in the French Concession have also been found by the Japanese plainclothes and confiscated through the patrol room of the French Concession."

"What?" Zhu Xia's face changed greatly, "The Japanese have such a good sense of smell? ”

The one-eyed dragon said depressedly: "The Japanese agents probably found clues from the false report. ”

Xu 19 sighed: "Don't forget that the Japanese have a special agent training institution, five years ago in the 128th Shanghai Anti-Japanese War, did we suffer less from the Japanese agents?" ”

Zhu Xia asked the one-eyed dragon again: "Can you get the explosives back?" ”

Xu Jiujiu sighed again: "Chief of Staff, you won't be like your leader, and you still have unrealistic illusions about Westerners, right?" Wake up, Westerners only have their own interests in their eyes, and they will never offend the Japanese for the sake of China. ”

Zhu Xia was speechless again, because he had no way to refute it.

Just half an hour ago, Zhu Xia had just learned through his classmates in the Ministry of Military Affairs that the operation had been suddenly canceled in the early hours of this morning, and the reason for the incident was very simple, that is, the consulates of Britain, France, and the United States in Shanghai had sent a note to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Nationalist Government through the Shanghai Municipal Government, saying that the Japanese side did not want the situation to expand and suggested that Shanghai be set up as an undefended free port.

No matter how much people who have no military vision can guess that this must be a trick of the Japanese, Zhu Xia does not think that the senior officials of the General Staff of the Military Commission will not be able to guess the wolf ambitions of the Japanese, but they still ordered the cancellation of the operation, obviously this is out of the will of the leader, the leader Weishenme did this? Apparently because he had illusions about Westerners.

According to Xu Shijiu's remarks, Chairman Chiang knew very well that the Japanese would never be trustworthy, and that the so-called opening of Shanghai as a free port was just a matter of delaying time, and that the Japanese would certainly change their minds, and the Westerners would certainly not impose actual sanctions because of the Japanese treachery, and at most they would only verbally protest a few words.

However, even so, Chairman Chiang still hoped that through this incident, the Westerners would feel guilty about the Nationalist Government, so that the next time the Westerners needed to intervene, they might feel sympathy because of the guilt, and they would be more likely to make a decision in favor of the Nationalist Government because of sympathy.

Sure enough, the one-eyed dragon then replied, "The captain is right, the French are not a good thing, they have already released a word that they will destroy this batch of explosives in front of the Japanese." ”

"Destroy it, destroy it, even if we don't cut off the heads of the Japanese, we will still fight this battle, and we can still win it." Zhu Xia talked to himself, cheered himself on, and said, "I don't believe it, we have 45,000,000 people, and there are even good soldiers like Xie Gouzi and Gao Maniac who are not afraid of death, and they can't fight a small Japan?" ”

"Brother Dog, how about resting?" The recruit Ergua smiled flatteringly and squatted beside Xie Gouzi.

Xie Gouzi glanced at Ergua coldly, ignored it, and just continued to fiddle with the Makqin heavy machine gun in his hand, but Ergua didn't care at all, and looked at Xie Gouzi with adoring eyes, and said: "Brother Gouzi, I worship you, I can't make such a decision if I change it, I'm terrible to death." ”

"Roll the edge!" Xie Gouzi was furious when he heard this, and kicked Ergua to the ground with one kick.

Before dawn, he went around the ghost gate and closed it, and Xie Gouzi hadn't fully recovered until now, so Ergua's words seemed to be sarcastic about his fear of death, which sounded particularly harsh.

Ergua fell on all fours, but he didn't get angry.

A big rough hand reached out from the side and pulled Ergua up from the ground, Ergua turned his head, but it was another veteran who he admired to the point that he couldn't do - a high madman.

"This guy is a dog temper, who bites whom, why don't you call him a dog?" The madman Gao looked at Xie Gouzi, and said to Ergua with a pleasant face, "Don't pay attention to him." ”

Ergua nodded vigorously and said, "Brother Madman, you always worship you." ”

"What is there to worship?" Madman Gao shook his head and said, "Actually, I'm just as afraid of death as Xie Gouzi." ”

"No, if you are also afraid of death, madman, there will be no soldiers in the national army who are not afraid of death."

"Ergua, you don't understand now." The high madman shook his head, how can anyone not be afraid of death, the reason why they volunteered to bomb the naval headquarters of Little Japan was because they had to stand up, because they owed the captain a life.

Ergua scratched his head and asked with some curiosity: "Brother madman, you are so kind, why do they call you crazy?" ”

The high madman smiled and didn't answer, but Xie Gouzi next to him suddenly interjected coldly and said, "If you had seen him go crazy, you wouldn't have asked that." ”
