Jiang Qiang originally wanted to sit down and have breakfast, so that he could listen to what the people had to say. But he didn't have time, he went back late, and Tingting's girl couldn't wait to leave after getting up. When she returned to the field hospital at this time, she would definitely not be able to eat breakfast, and she was afraid that she would have to go to the operating table hungry again.

Thinking about Tingting's eating habits are milk and bread, and the taste of eating Chinese food is weak, Jiang Qiang asked for some sticky bean buns, fried screw cakes, leek boxes, two tea eggs, and took two military lunch boxes from Shunzi's hands, asked the boss to make some spiced sweet foam and bean curd, handed it to the two guards, took out a two-yuan yuan from his pocket, and handed it to the boss.

The man who sold breakfast refused to ask for money, saying that the Jiaodong Army had conquered Jinan City, and what money was needed for a meal. Shunzi stepped forward and said to the boss: "Jiaodongjun sells fairly, if you don't pay for food, then what kind of person will you become?" Hurry up and settle the score, we still have something to do. ”

The man who sold breakfast was also neat, and he began to settle the accounts without excuses, and kept saying in his mouth, "Five points of bean curd, five points of spiced sweet foam, two sticky bean buns, two fried screw cakes, and two leek boxes, five points each, a total of three cents; One tea egg is five points, two are one dime. It's five cents in total, and I'll find you a piece of five cents. ”

Junko said, "Why is everything five cents?" The boss said, "We are not very literate, and we have trouble settling accounts." If you charge five points, you can settle the account. Commander of the Jiaodong Army, don't be too expensive. It was the Jiaodong Army that defeated Jinan and restored supply. When the little devil is there, like this egg, money can't buy it. ”

Jiang Qiang saw that the boss was Lisuo, so he asked: "Boss, in addition to accepting RMB, you don't accept RMB, joint coupons, silver dollars, and fiat currency here?" ”

The boss's head shook like a rattle: "Don't tease me, the commander of the Jiaodong Army, the Yuan and Union Coupons are not accepted now, and the notice of the Jiaodong Army makes it clear that it is forbidden to use the Yuan and Union Coupons." I only accept RMB, silver dollars, and fiat currencies here. Snack stalls generally don't use silver dollars, and in the past, they only collected copper plates. Now the main thing is to collect RMB, and it is okay to have fiat currency. The commander of the Jiaodong Army may not know that before you conquered Jinan, the merchants in Jinan City had already secretly used RMB. The renminbi is good, and you can buy grain, vegetables, and pork in the countryside. The joint coupon is the worst, out of Jinan City is a piece of waste paper, and the countryside does not recognize this kind of paper money at all. In the past, silver dollars and yuan were required, but later only yuan, renminbi and fiat currency were required. I heard that the yuan can also be handed over to the Jiaodong Army to exchange for RMB, and the joint coupon cannot be exchanged for anything. ”

The man was not too long-winded, and then said: "Commander of the Jiaodong Army, my food stall was handed down by my father. When he did it, he collected silver dollars, copper plates, and money, and when I did, he added fiat money. After he came, the silver dollar and fiat currency were not allowed to circulate, and only their military tickets, North Korean coupons, and yuan were accepted, and this year there was another joint coupon. I'm not afraid of your jokes, we all rushed to buy food and spices as soon as the stall was closed, for fear that the money would not be used. Up to now, many merchants in Jinan City are in the hands of Yuan, United Coupons, Yuan is easy to do, I heard that the Jiaodong Army is only forbidden to use, but normal payment, the United Coupons have all become waste paper. These are not the days of doing business. ”

After Jiang Qiang heard this, he felt that this man was telling the truth, saying that the currency of the puppet army did kill people, not only was he fighting an economic war with the little devils, but the little devils were also fighting an economic war, and their ban on the circulation of silver dollars and fiat currency was a sinister move. In the future, maybe the little devils will really forge fiat currency, buy and sell by force, and plunder China's resources as they did in history. If it doesn't take long, the little devil will forge the yuan. You have to plan ahead!

Jiang Qiang was thinking about it, when he heard a crisp female voice coming: "Boss, come two bowls of bean curd and a plate of fried screw cake." ”

This voice is like a yellow warbler, and it can't be said to be good. Liu Yimin couldn't help but look up, and saw that it was two female soldiers who came to have breakfast, so he didn't pay attention and turned to leave.

After walking a few steps, Jiang Qiang felt that something was wrong, this female voice was a Beijing film, and the back voice had a bit of southeast Lu accent charm, which was very good. Although there are also female soldiers who have run out of Beiping to join the army, they are all intellectuals and the treasures of the troops, and they are generally divided into cultural units, hospitals, communications battalions, and radio stations. Besides, this female voice has the accent charm of Juxian County in southeast Lu, and the problem is that at this time, it is very rare to be able to go from southeast Lu to Beiping and speak a fluent Beijing accent. There will not be a few such women in the whole southeast of Ludong, they are all very famous.

Jiang Qiang stopped, looked back, and only saw the backs of the two female soldiers, only to see that under one of the military hats was a beautiful black hair, the neck was like a swan neck, white and delicate, tall and slender, bee waist and shoulders, round hips, and spotless military uniforms. The other is slightly lower, about 1.60 meters or so, with short ear-length hair under his military hat, a well-proportioned figure, and a dusty color on his military uniform, indicating that he came all the way to the army.

Why is there no dust on the uniform of the tall female soldier? At this moment, the two female soldiers sat on the stall, and Jiang Qiang saw it completely now.

The one who spoke was a slightly lower female soldier, with curved eyebrows and beautiful dimples, very beautiful. But when you compare it with the tall girl, you can compare. I saw that the tall girl's eyebrows were like distant mountains, her eyes were like paint, her face was as crystal as jade, her facial features were extremely exquisite, her complexion was white and delicate as if she had been washed with milk, and her demeanor and movements were full of nobility.

Jiang Qiang was suspicious in his heart, this girl's figure is similar to Jingjing, and her nobility is similar to Tingting, and her appearance is not worse than Beidao Youzi, An Ran, Chen Mingzhu, Wang Dan, and Wang Hui, maybe even a little better. When did you have such an outstanding female soldier in your own army?

Probably sensing that someone was staring, the tall female soldier lowered her eyes and face, and said nothing. The low-height female soldier raised her head, her eyes looked at Jiang Qiang's face a few times, a trace of blush appeared on her face, and she lowered her head in a panic and began to eat.

It's boring to watch it any longer, I don't know if it will make the two female soldiers think that they are disciples! Jiang Qiang turned around and left, leading Shunzi and them back to the division headquarters.

The voice of the breakfast seller came from behind him: "I said why did this little devil die so quickly, look at our Jiaodong Army, look like Zhao Zilong, tall and mighty, when fighting, ride a big white horse and go there to stop, no need to fire, scare the little devil to death!" After Jiang Qiang returned to the living room, Tingting had already gotten up and was sitting in front of the window combing her hair.

Jiang Qiang put down breakfast, walked behind Tingting, picked up a wooden comb, combed Tingting's hair awkwardly, and kissed Tingting's hair and forehead while combing his mouth, and the two of them were tired of being together again. Lying in Jiang Qiang's arms, Tingting murmured: "Jiang Qiang, I feel as if I am in a dream, for fear that when I wake up from the dream, everything will change." ”

Jiang Qiang said: "I am willing to weave a colorful dream for you, so that you can live in happiness every day like a princess in a fairy tale." Hurry up and eat, there is still a lot of things to do after eating! ”

Tingting left Jiang Qiang's arms and sat down at the table. Two people, you feed me, I feed you, tender and sweet, like a newlywed. After eating, Jiang Qiang said with satisfaction: "I didn't expect that the majestic general would buy breakfast for his wife, and I can be regarded as a blessed woman!" ”

Jiang Qiang said: "Of course, if you are not blessed, who will be blessed!" The world is so big, the woman who can make me Jiang Qiang fall in love, is that an ordinary person? Little fool, your blessings are yet to come. I'm going to make you wake up laughing in the middle of the night for the rest of your life! ”

Tingting's beautiful eyes flowed, looked at Jiang Qiang's face, and finally leaned over Jiang Qiang's ear and said, "You are a fierce tiger, a tiger that eats women!" After speaking, without waiting for Jiang Qiang's reaction, he turned around and went downstairs.

Jiang Qiang was shocked, Chen Mingzhu also said to him, could these two women be twin sisters in their previous lives and have the same heart?

Jiang Qiang did not calculate one point, the reason why the northern front army was slow to move in the areas of Jide County and Cangxian County was not entirely because Terauchi Shouyi was afraid of being annihilated and deliberately shrunk his troops and waited for further mobilization of the army. The main reason is that there has been a personnel adjustment within the army, and the reason is really as expected before the capture of Jinan, and the Kwantung Army has indeed been its shrinking turtle.

According to Terauchi Shou's plan, it was to take the three divisions of the Kwantung Army as the main force, with the four divisions of Luxi, Dexian, Southern Hebei, and Hebei and Lubian, and cooperate with the Southern Front Army to gather and annihilate the main force of the Eighth Route Army instructors under the city of Jinan. Unexpectedly, as soon as the 1st Division, the 2nd Division, and the 23rd Division arrived at Shanhaiguan, Jinan City had been captured by the Jiaodong Army. In this case, Terauchi Shou had to order the southern front army to shrink in an all-round way and gather in Yanzhou and Jining.

By the time the three divisions of the Kwantung Army arrived in the Cangxian and Dexian areas, the troops stationed in Luxi, southern Hebei, and Hebei, as well as those stationed in Cangxian and Dexian, had all been assembled.

Of course, the troops withdrawn from southern Hebei, western Hebei, and Hebei-Lubian were somewhat miserable, and they were all drained of a wing of troops to participate in the Henan battlefield operations, and the troops were already insufficient; in addition, the Eighth Route Army planted mines, fired cold guns, and pursued them along the way, and the troops suffered certain losses, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced. In addition, after receiving the news that the Jiaodong Army had captured the commander of the 12th Army, Odaka Kamizo, and eliminated the 108th Division, the 33rd Division, and the Jinan defenders had lost contact, the morale was even lowered, and they could only be used as auxiliary troops.

Terauchi Shouman sincerely hoped that the First Division and the Second Division would be able to play the role of the mainstay, have the courage to shoulder heavy responsibilities, attack quickly, and recapture Jinan, but the commander of the First Division, Lieutenant General Kyosuke Kawamura, was extremely uncooperative.

Although his first division is the oldest division of the army and is well-equipped, it is also a famous playboy unit in the army, and there is still a certain gap between the second, fifth, and sixth divisions in terms of real combat effectiveness.

In Kawamura Kyosuke's thought, Jiang Qiang's Shandong Military Region was not easy to mess with, and the army encircled Tianjin and fought in the air, causing him to lose the First Cavalry Wing; Heavy troops swept through Shandong, and the Kwantung Army lost the 107th Division and the North China Front lost the 5th Division. If we want to deal with Jiang Qiang's Shandong Army, it is absolutely impossible to rely on the existing strength alone, and it is necessary to mobilize at least six or more permanent divisions and regiments. Now the 14th Division on the Southern Front is too far away from itself, and it is too dangerous to rely on the First Division and the Second Division alone. In that case, you can follow in the footsteps of Maeda Toshiwei, Sasaki Toichi, Otaka Kamezo, and Tani Toshio.

The frightened Kyosuke Kawamura sent a telegram to Terauchi Shou, on the one hand, saying that the Shandong army had captured Jinan and was waiting for work, and that the attack at this time violated the common sense of the art of war; On the other hand, he said that the 1st and 2nd Divisions were constantly going back and forth between North China and Manchuria, and that the troops had not been able to recuperate for a long time, and that the soldiers were extremely tired, so they should take a break to recuperate and reconnoiter the enemy situation before considering how to attack. That's not all, Kawamura Kyosuke also reminded Terauchi Shouichi that Manchuria is the foundation of the Great Empire, the Kwantung Army is responsible for preparing for war against Wang Yizhe, and the main forces of the Kwantung Army of the First Division and the Second Division are staying in North China for a long time, which will greatly affect the stability of Manchuria.

That's not all, Kyosuke Kawamura also secretly reported to the commander of the Kwantung Army, Ueda Kenkichi, asking him to use the frequent activities of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation in Liaoning as an excuse to put pressure on Terauchi Shou and strive to transfer the first and second divisions back to the northeast as soon as possible.

Kyosuke Kawamura is this idea, and Ueda Kenkichi is even more like this, his main task of the Kwantung Army is to prepare for war against Wang Yizhe, not to be the firefighting team of the North China Front, last time he went to North China with three permanent divisions, but lost a fifth division. This time there were three divisions again, but don't come back to two again. It's like the North China Front Army, how many elites are enough to bury this empire!

Therefore, Ueda Kenkichi did not care whether the emperor was happy or not, and Prince Zaihito of the Shoin Palace was satisfied or not, and began to send telegrams and telephone calls to Terauchi Shou, informing him of the deterioration of public order in Manchuria and reminding him that the task of the first and second divisions was to prepare for war against Wang Yizhe, and it was impossible to stop in North China for too long.

Terauchi Shou was annoyed and angry, and when he met Kyosuke Kawamura and quietly stumbled, it was annoyed and annoyed.

Kyosuke Kawamura old devil Li Ling Zhi was stunned, thinking that he was so great as the commander of the lieutenant general division and the division commander of the first division, that he dared to play a game of mouse and cat with the military giant Terauchi Shouichi, he simply didn't know how to write the dead word!

Historically, Kyosuke Kawamura was removed from office in July of this year. Now, due to the factor of Jiang Qiang's crossing, many personnel changes in the Yue army have changed. Kyosuke Kawamura also spent a few more months in the position of division commander.

Originally, if Kyosuke Kawamura went to meet Terauchi Shou, he would directly tell Terauchi Shou about his worries about falling into Jiang Qiang's trap, maybe he could work for a few more days, after all, Terauchi Shouichi knew Jiang Qiang very well, and he also knew that it was likely that there would be problems if he rashly launched an attack with his existing forces. Thousands of undesirable, absolutely undesirable, Kawamura Kyosuke not only exposed his cowardice on the telegram, but also encouraged the commander of the Kwantung Army, General Ueda Kenkichi, to put pressure on Terauchi Shouichi.

Who is Shou Terauchi, how can he see Ueda Kenkichi in his eyes?

If it was left behind the 226 mutiny to suppress the backbone of the Imperial Dao faction, Terauchi Shou would have been able to take Kawamura Kyosuke's life with an order. Now is the time when the troops are being lost and the morale needs to be gathered, Terauchi Shou is unwilling to do too much, but he only secretly plays the emperor, saying that Kyosuke Kawamura is corrupt and bribe-taking, fears the enemy like a tiger, and must be removed from his post and transferred to the reserve, and the commander of the first division is to be Lieutenant General Naosaburo Gangbe, chief of staff of the North China Front, and Lieutenant General Yamashita Fumifumi is requested to take over as chief of staff of the North China Front, and Major General Muto Akira, deputy chief of staff of the Central China Dispatch Army, is requested to be transferred to the post of deputy chief of staff of the North China Front, and Lieutenant General Iida Sadagu, commander of the Guards Division, to take over as commander of the 12th Army.

Emperor Hirohito is even more annoying than Terauchi Shou, two commanders of the 12th Army and three garrison divisions have been annihilated in a row, which has made him lose face in the world, and even when he saw Empress Ryoko, he felt that he was not as gentle and considerate as in the past, not to mention these generals who had always defeated the war? Don't talk about Kyosuke Kawamura, even Shanshan Yuan and Terauchi Shou want to kick it away, but for a while, he can't choose a suitable land minister or a suitable commander of the North China Front.

At this time, Emperor Hirohito remembered Itagaki Seishiro who was on trial, and felt that it was too unjust to let Itagaki Seishiro's death be too unjust, at that time Jiang Qiang's troops were born out of thin air, no one understood him, and it was normal for Itagaki Seishiro to suffer at his hands. At this time of the battle, it had been more than a year since he had fought with Jiang Qiang, but the losses were even greater. Compared to Seishiro Itagaki, Terauchi Shouyi, Sugi Sugimoto, Prince Zaihito of Kanin Palace, and all the generals of the base camp and the North China Front should be damned!

If Seishiro Itagaki is here, with his combat style, to take over as the prime minister, he will inevitably be much more proactive than Sugi Moto, and it is likely that the battle plan will be more bold and sharp. Taking a step back, it is to let him serve as the commander of the Fifth Division, and it is estimated that the results of the Fifth Division are definitely not what they are now.

Emperor Hirohito was in this state of mind, and Terauchi's telegram was naturally approved immediately. When Naosaburo Okabe rushed to the 1st Division with a telegram from the base camp in his hand to announce the order, Kyosuke Kawamura realized that he had made a self-defeating mistake and offended someone who should not have offended, so he had to hand over his sword in a disgraced manner and return to Samoto under the escort of the military police.

The personnel changes in the North China Front caused by the cowardice of Lieutenant General Kyosuke Kawamura, the commander of the 1st Division, delayed Terauchi Shou's plan to recapture Jinan. At this time, he didn't dare to act anymore, because Jiang Qiang did gain a firm foothold in Jinan, and where Jiang Qiang's main force would kill in one step, Terauchi Shou didn't know the bottom in his heart. In addition, Jiang Qiang did not take advantage of the situation to capture Texas, which made Terauchi Shousheng suspicious, worried that Jiang Qiang was staring at him fiercely, and was ready to pounce on him at any time to hit him off guard. Under such circumstances, Terauchi Shou needed to carefully study and judge the situation, formulate a thorough battle plan, and had to order the Northern Front Army, the Southern Front Army, and the Dezhou Army to hold out, and use small troops to infiltrate and attack, and play the number, strength, and movement of the Jiaodong Army.

Another factor is logistical pressures. You must know that Jinan is the supply terminal of the Shandong Army, and the ammunition reserves of the original Second Army and the Twelfth Army established later are in Jinan. All divisions and regiments also had military stations stationed in Jinan, and Jiang Qiang made a fortune by taking Jinan, but the army complained bitterly, and ammunition, food, clothing, and medicine had to be transported from the mainland to North China again. At this time of the war, it was said that the country had already done its best, and the losses were so great at once, if it was necessary to replenish it all, it would take a while for Lu Xiang Sugi to negotiate with Prime Minister Konoe Fumima, not to mention that the supplies had to be transported to North China and distributed to the troops.

The old devil Temple Neishou is now in a hurry. Jiang Qiang didn't have time to carefully study what was going on with Terauchi Shou, he was now a family affair and a war affair, and he couldn't be busy!

On the morning of November 11, the bodies of soldiers who died in the Jinan War were transported back to Jinan.

Jiang Qiang also held a large-scale funeral for the soldiers who died here, this time as the last time in Tianjin, the number of people who participated in this funeral probably exceeded more than 50,000 people in Jinan, many people are thinking that the commander gave these soldiers the greatest glory, and the compensation for each soldier who died has reached 150,000 yuan, which is about 15,000 oceans, and at this time there is no such compensation in the whole country.

Just after the funeral, those young adults in Shandong went crazy to participate in the soldiers of the Shandong Military Region, and now the general compensation for the soldiers sacrificed by the Nanjing government is about 50 oceans at most, Jiang Qiang and they will not worry about money at all, Jinan's development bank will soon resume normal work, Zhuang Tao has also arrived in Jinan to carry out work, Zhuang Tao is already quite mature at this time, plus his work in Zhaoyuan is also obvious to everyone, Zhaoyuan's prosperity is almost the same as where in Taicang, Shanghai, In addition to the Zhaoyuan gold mine is also a continuous gold output, to Zhaoyuan brought vitality, Zhaoyuan's economy has far exceeded Jinan City, that is, Qixia County's economy at this time is also more than Jinan, Zhaoyuan County magistrate is now Jiang He. At the beginning, Zhuang Tao did not agree, Zhuang Tao wanted Jiang He to take care of Jiang Qiang's life, where would Jiang Qiang agree, but asked Zhuang Tao and Jiang He to marry, after the marriage, Zhuang Tao came to Jinan to take office, and Jiang He served as the county magistrate of Zhaoyuan County, so that Jiang Qiang would rest assured,

Shanghai's Guangming Daily reported in full on Jiang Qiang's speech at the funeral of the soldiers who died. At the end of the article, Jiang Qiang said affectionately: "Since the full-scale invasion of China, our army has fought a war of resistance against the enemy, and has fought bloody battles with the Kou without military salaries, ammunition, grain and grass supplies, and has won successive battles. Countless heroes stepped on the bodies of their comrades and launched a decisive charge against the devil until they fell under the devil's gun. Whenever I recall the voices and smiles of these comrades-in-arms, I often can't sleep at night and tears stain my clothes. I know that these comrades-in-arms of mine are all good sons and daughters of the Chinese nation, and their deaths were to defeat the aggressors, to defend the country's territorial sovereignty, to truly realize national reading, national liberation, and national rejuvenation, and to protect millions of Chinese people from being poisoned! The greatness of death, the glory of death, the place of death! The ancients often said that people always have a death, which can be heavier than Mount Tai and lighter than a feather. I think that the sacrifice of the comrades-in-arms of the Jiaodong Group Army and the sacrifice of all our comrades-in-arms in China are like the green pines on the top of Mount Tai, shining on the future generations to struggle and climb endlessly, and to protect the splendid civilization, freedom, prosperity and strength of our Greater China. ”
