Chapter 1494 The horn of counterattack
The next day, the front page headline of Yinjiang Daily published a signed article by Zhong Yi, "The Horn of Counterattack".
Lu Xiaoning, editor-in-chief of Yinjiang Daily, knew that publishing this article would take a lot of risks, but he still resolutely posted it because it was Zhong Yi’s signed article!
So far, Zhong Yi has published such a signed article!
For nothing else, just focus on this point, this article must be published!
What's more, Zhong Yi's article is indeed written in a very elegant way. After reading this article, Lu Xiaoning couldn't help but want to abandon his pen and join the army and carry a gun to the battlefield!
Not surprisingly, Zhong Yi's article caused an uproar.
Principal Chang saw this article almost immediately.
Yinjiang Daily was originally just a small local newspaper. Not to mention the accompanying capital in Chongqing, it was impossible for Yinjiang City to popularize it even in the few months.
But now, Yinjiang Daily has already the largest sales newspaper.
The reason is also very simple, the economic foundation determines everything!
With the development of Yinjiang's economy, with the gradual formation and growth of Yinjiang Industrial Zone, and as Yinjiang's industrial products continue to be exported to the rear, the importance of Yinjiang Daily is becoming increasingly prominent.
There is nothing else, because there is an advertisement for Yinjiang in Yinjiang Daily.
Through the advertising of Yinjiang Daily, businessmen can discover business opportunities in a timely manner.
So now, almost all major cities in the rear have branches of Yinjiang Daily.
It is precisely because of this that President Chang was able to read Zhong Yi’s article at the first time.
After reading it, Principal Chang's first reaction was not surprising at all: he was furious!
"Mom Xipi! What is Zhong Yi doing? What does he want to do?" Principal Chang was furious.
"No, what is Zhong Ziren doing? Who gave him the power to fight back without authorization?" Chen Shi was also angry, "If you fight back, you should fight back. Don't make a statement, but you still have to write such a manifesto. Is this trying to anger the Japanese and force the Japanese army to launch a second wave of offensive on the front battlefield?"
He Yingpei was so anxious that his face turned green and said, "Principal, at such a critical moment, Zhong Ziren made such a battle manifesto, and threatened to launch a large-scale military counterattack in eastern Zhejiang. Why do I tell the Japanese? Should I still discuss the next few rounds of peace talks?"
Although Principal Chang never thought about really discussing peace with Japan, he was still very happy to accept the olive branch extended by the Japanese. The reason was not complicated, because once peace was negotiated, it means that the situation on the front line could be temporarily eased, so that the national army could be rested and the National Government could take a breath.
Taking advantage of this short gap, President Chang can also free up his hands to clean up the Communist Party.
So recently, He Yingpei has been negotiating with the Japanese government through his classmate Okamura Yasuji, who was studying at the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School. Don’t say that, the two of them had a very harmonious negotiation and made progress.
Okamura Yasuji even did ideological work to connect the base camp, which could be returned to Wuhan!
But now, Zhong Yi published such an article "The Horn of Counterattack" in Yinjiang Daily, which may lead to the invalidation of all He Yingpei's efforts.
In this case, He Yingpei will not only not make any contribution, but will instead make him feel slutty.
The previous agreement between He Mei in Tanggu almost ruined He Yingpei. He really didn't want to come again, so He Yingpei was really anxious this time.
"Jingzhi, don't worry, you'll talk about you." President Chang waved his hand and said, "You tell the Japanese for me that we have a lot of sincerity in the peace talks, but it's not enough to just sell Wuhan. You can't say anything else, but the capital Nanjing, the place where the Prime Minister's Mausoleum is located must be returned to the Chinese government!"
He paused and continued, "Otherwise, it would be difficult to convince a senior general like Zhong Yi who holds heavy troops!"
It must be admitted that President Chang still has a political mind. Zhong Yi wrote such a battle manifesto, which was obviously an emergency, but he was suddenly beaten, but when he turned around, it became a weapon in his hand and a bargaining chip for the National Government to put pressure on the Japanese government during negotiations!
"I understand!" He Yingpei's eyes lit up when he heard this.
As soon as He Yingpei finished speaking, the call from the Ministry of Military Affairs called the attendant's room.
"Principal." Zhang Zhizhang came in to report, "The Ministry of Military Affairs received a telegram from Okamura Yasuji."
He Yingpei said to Principal Chang: "Principal, then I will go back to the Ministry of Military Affairs to deal with it first."
"Well, then you go back first." Principal Chang nodded and said, "You must describe Zhong Yi's article as the stress reaction of our senior general after learning that they were in the negotiations! You must kill this point no matter what!"
"Yes, I understand!" He Yingpei stood at attention, then turned around and left in a hurry.
Watching He Yingpei leave, President Chang said to Zhang Zhizhong again: "Writing and drafting a telegram."
"Yes." Zhang Zhizhong agreed and quickly took out his pen and notebook.
...
Shanghai, the 13th Army Command.
After receiving He Yingpei's reply, Okamura Yanji turned his eyes to Ishihara Kan and asked: "Ishihara, you are an expert in China, what do you think about this?"
After saying that, Okamura Yasuji reached out to pick up the newspaper on the table again.
This newspaper is Yinjiang Daily. Okamura Yasuji reads the article on the front page, which is the battle manifesto written by Zhong Yi: The Clever of Counterattack!
Faced with Okamura Yanji's inquiry, Ishihara Kanji just smiled.
By the way, because of Okamura Yanji's strong demand, Ishihara Kanir, known as the "first military strategist" of the Japanese Army, has been transferred from the commander of the Tsurumu Fortress to the 13th Army as Chief of Staff.
Tojo Hideki was very resistant to Okamura's request.
Because Ishihara Kanir once publicly mocked Hideki Tojo, saying that his IQ is only worthy of being a private.
Hideki Tojo is a very revengeful person. If it weren't for Okamura's strong request, he wouldn't have let Ishihara Kanir return to the front line again this time.
Okamura Yasuji asked again: "Why don't Ishihara kun speak?"
Ishihara Kaner waved his hand and continued, "Okamura, if you ask me about this article by Zhong Yi, then I really don't know what to say, because I don't know much about this person's style, but if you ask me about Chang Kaishen, or the true intentions of the Chinese government, then I can analyze it for you with no bad results."
