It can only be described as madness; Wuhan, Chongqing, Guangzhou, Shanghai, all Chinese people are crazy. In the past six months, China has lost Pingjin, Hebei, Shanxi, Chahar, and the most important Shanghai. But now, Nanjing, the capital that he thought must be lost, has actually defended, and killed a major general, almost wiped out a brigade, surrounding two divisions. /Star/Send this sudden good news immediately throws China into the ocean of carnival.

"The king's army in Han's house has sent good news, and he is full of joy in poetry and books." Fu Sinian, a professor at Peking University who fled to Wuhan, was very happy to change his poems to congratulate him. However, the temporary political center of Wuhan was in a continuous carnival broke out. Almost all the wine in the shops were sold out, and the people gathered spontaneously to pray for the soldiers guarding the city in Nanjing.

The whistle of the Shanghai Concession Wharf was roaring, and the resistance activities in the Concession were suddenly rising. The traitors who defected to the Japanese were in a panic. Could it be that Japan was defeated like this?

Guangzhou held a large-scale demonstration, and in one day it raised 2 million French currency in military spending; Hong Kong citizens launched a boycott of Japanese goods and wrote to the Governor of Hong Kong, demanding that Japanese ships be prohibited from reaching the port. The dock trade union organized a slaughter of Japanese ships and refused to load and unload cargo for Japanese ships. Singapore Tan Kah Kee was anxious that Chinese businessmen in Southeast Asia announced that they had broken off diplomatic relations with the Japanese economy, stopped all economic and trade exchanges with the Japanese, and organized young Chinese overseas in Southeast Asia to return to China to participate in the war.

"Just as Japan held its breath and was about to cheer for the capture of Nanjing, the Chinese slapped them. Matsui Ishienen not only did not capture Nanjing, but two divisions were surrounded near Guangde, and Wanyu was eliminated. The Chinese taught the Japanese a strategy lesson...Web mocked the Japanese army in the Washington Observer newspaper, and at the same time called on the US government to adopt a tougher policy towards Japan.

"If the West allows Japan to occupy China, look at the map and you will know that in the future, the West will have to obey the Japanese meaning in the Far East. The Tanaka memorial said that if you want to conquer the world, you will first conquer China; if you want to conquer China, you will first conquer Manchu; Japan is following this step by step to realize their ambition to conquer the world.

The interests of the United States of America require Washington to interfere in the Sino-Japanese War as soon as possible, and at least stop exporting strategic materials to Japan immediately. This requirement is not high, but it is decisive for Japan and can prompt them to withdraw troops from China as soon as possible."

Chiang Kai-shek was extremely excited and even walked a little lightly. He even made an exception to attend the mass meeting in Wuhan, expressing his determination to resist the war to the end and never accept any surrender treaty.

"Jiansheng, has Du Yuming arrived in Guangde? Where is he now?" Chiang Kai-shek's red face was full of redness, and he asked Bai Chongxi as soon as he got in the car.

"I've arrived in Anhui. Zhang Lihui, the 1st vanguard Division, is still two days away from Guangde." Bai Chongxi's expression was very calm. When the news of the Japanese army retreating from the city of Nanjing came, he was also unexpected. Unexpectedly, Nanjing was really defended, which caused a sensation in the base camp at that time.

But soon, Matsui Ishigen Earth movements came. The 13th Division of the 9th Division of the 6th Division formed a southward corps. More than 40,000 people from three divisions quickly went south to reinforce.

Of course, Zhuang Jihua would not sit still and watch Matsui Ishigen go south. He launched a counterattack under the city of Nanjing. He quickly recovered Jurong, Danyang, Jintan, and Wu Jin. He regained all positions outside Nanjing in one fell swoop. He drove the Japanese army back to the Xicheng line.

The defeat at Nanjing City shocked the whole country of Japan. Emperor Hirohito blamed himself for the first time at the imperial meeting. Prime Minister Kobaya led all members of the cabinet to apologize to the emperor.

After leaving the palace, the Guards convened an emergency meeting with the cabinet members and decided not to negotiate with the Chinese government under such circumstances. They immediately added troops to Central China. The Fifth Division and the 10th Division were drawn from North China and the Seventh Division were drawn from Manchuria. These three divisions were immediately transferred to Central China; five divisions, including the 21st Division, the 106th Division and the 110th Division, were formed in China. All new divisions were completed within three months.

The Japanese war machine started at full speed. The Fifth Division assembled in Pingjin land immediately boarded the ship and headed south. The 10th Division quickly transported Tanggu at the assembly site near Dezhou. The 7th Division boarded the ship in Tanggu and headed south.

Chiang Kai-shek was also making a heavy bet on Nanjing. In addition to Du Yuming's 60th Army, the 22nd Army of the Sichuan Army Tang-style Zundi was also ordered to leave Sichuan. The Hunan Army Gui Army was also transferred out of the province and then planned to transfer troops from North China. However, Zhuang Jihua firmly opposed it.

"The purpose of the Battle of Nanjing is to delay time and consume the Japanese army's troops. It is not to fight the decisive battle with the enemy in Nanjing. In the Battle of Shanghai, our army suffered serious losses. We should take this opportunity to rest and rest in case of another battle."

Zhuang Jihua's first few telegrams were explanatory, but later he became impatient and simply told Chiang Kai-shek that he would not have time to arrive, even if he arrived, he would not let them enter the Nanjing War Zone.

If you want to say this, Chiang Kai-shek would have been furious for a long time and at least he was dismissed. However, when Zhuang Jihua said it, Chiang Kai-shek quietly accepted it.

Whether Niudao and Mosong can be annihilated depends entirely on whether Du Yuming can arrive in Guangde in time, but Bai Chongxi believes that even if Du Yuming arrives, it is unlikely that Niudao and Mosong will be annihilated.

"It's too slow, they're too slow." Chiang Kai-shek was a little dissatisfied.

"It's not slow anymore. Du Guangting set out from Yunnan, this road in Yunnan and Guizhou," Bai Chongxi shook his head with a wry smile and sighed: "Chairman, we may not be able to give too high hopes to the Guangde front line. The three Japanese divisions went south, and there are only 12,300 people in the Lanyun East now, so I'm afraid it can't be stopped."

The Lan Yundong defeated the Guoqi Detachment, but the cost was not small. The casualties ratio of enemy and us reached 1:11. The difficulty of blocking the 40,000 tiger and wolf army can be imagined.

Chiang Kai-shek hesitated for a moment, and there were shouts outside the car. He lifted the curtains and saw a team of soldiers passing by outside. Bai Chongxi glanced at him and said, "This is a recruit. Zhuang Wenge asked Li Zhilong and Liu Xiang to send 100,000 new recruits to the front line as soon as possible, of which 70,000 went to Nanjing and 30,000 went to Guangde. Du Guangting did not fire a single shot. The 30,000 new recruits provided by Yunnan have already set off."

Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered something: "Chairman, how to deal with Deng Jinkang's matter?"

After Deng Xihou arrived in Shanxi, a fire was covered in his stomach. First, the troops were divided and used, but the wars were not good. After retreating to Zhongtiao Mountain, Yan Xishan refused to provide military supplies on the grounds that the Sichuan Army had its own logistics supply, but later it developed to refuse to provide food. This move angered the 23rd Army. Deng Xihou sent people to rob several grain depots and military supplies. Yan Xishan sued Chiang Kai-shek, saying that the Sichuan Army's military discipline was corrupt and it was a disaster for Shanxi and asked them to be transferred. Deng Xihou was not showing weakness, and also telegraphed the Military Commission to leave the Second World War Zone, and even took the initiative to go to Nanjing Zhuang Jihua to participate in the war.

"Oh, that's strange. Yang Sen, Sun Zhen and others fought well. Deng Jinkang's equipment is not bad. Why are they the same? It seems that it really fits that sentence, and it's a bunch of bears." Chiang Kai-shek sighed, and he consulted Cheng Qian, a war zone.

Cheng Qian didn't dare to ask for it either.

Chiang Kai-shek was silent for a while and said, "Then ask if Zhuang Wenge wants it."

"Long live the Sichuan Army!" Another cheer came from outside the car window. This time, when Chiang Kai-shek heard it clearly, his face suddenly became gloomy.

When he returned to the Military Commission, he called He Zhonghan. He Zhonghan knew something was wrong when he saw Chiang Kai-shek's face, but he didn't know where the matter was.

"What has the Political Department been doing recently?" Chiang Kai-shek asked.

The Political Department of the Base Camp is a new institution, which is composed of the former Sixth Department of the Base Camp, the Political Training Department of the Military Commission, and the Political Training Department of the Training General Department. The candidates for ministers have not been appointed yet. The deputy ministers are Zhou Enlai and Huang Qixiang, and Secretary-General Zhang Lisheng.

The Political Department has three departments, the Department, He Zhonghan is the director, responsible for the editing and review of laws and regulations, appointment and removal of political workers, matters regarding cadre selection, communication and personnel registration matters, performance appraisal of all political workers, rewards and punishments and pensions, and personnel administrative research matters;

In the second department, Kang Ze is the director, responsible for training and political work design matters, training guidance and assessment matters, training editing matters, training research matters, etc.;

In the Third Department, He Zhonghan also serves as the director, responsible for the design guidance of various propaganda, the editing and reviewing of various propaganda materials at home and abroad and the enemy and puppets, the recruitment of condolences, printing and distribution, design assessment and cultural services, research on enemy situations and international issues, research on drama, film, music, singing, painting, etc., among which the Second Department Art Factory is responsible for the editing of international propaganda pictorials, woodcut production and photo photography collection of related to the founding of the Anti-Japanese War.

He Zhonghan replied in a regular manner: "This period was mainly to promote the anti-Japanese war, especially the victory in Nanjing, and to open a political training school in Wuhan."

He Zhonghan felt a little bitter. After the Xi'an Incident, although Chiang Kai-shek did not treat him, he was obviously not as close as before. Although he was still allowed to serve as director, if there was no such incident in Xi'an, he would have 90% hope for the Director of the Political Department.

"How is the Blue Clothes Club recently?" Chiang Kai-shek was still very calm.

He Zhonghan knew that Chiang Kai-shek had started playing that trick again, and today's thing was definitely not the Blue-Clothes Club: "After the principal's order, Blue-Clothes Club has stopped its activities. I... don't know much about what's happening there."

"You were the one who hosted the Blue Clothes Club back then, and you will end it today. You can discuss it with them and disband it."

"Yes." Although he had expected it, He Zhonghan could not help but feel a layer of sadness in his heart. The vigorous Blue-clothed Club Movement was quietly extinguished. Millions of Blue-clothed Club members disappeared like the autumn wind, leaving only a heavy sigh.

"Propaganda must be guided correctly. Long live the Sichuan Army. Isn't the Sichuan Army under the leadership of the central government? Isn't it in the National Government's anti-Japanese war? The Sichuan Army fought well this time, but the command was my Huangpu classmate, the same Sichuan Army, and the same equipment. Why Deng Jinkang couldn't fight well in Shanxi? This is a very telling problem." Chiang Kai-shek's voice became a little harsh.

He Zhonghan thought about it carefully and felt a cold sweat on his back. The circulation of Yuzhou Evening News was getting bigger and bigger, and it had already been sent to Wuhan. Mei Youlan praised the Sichuan Army in the newspaper. As a result, people shouted long live the Sichuan Army at several mass rallies. It turns out that Chiang Kai-shek was angry. Here is the reason.

"Students understand that the main contribution of the Nanjing victory is that our Central Army's Forty-ninth Army is our Central Army." He Zhonghan replied briskly: "However, the mass parades were planned and organized by Vice Minister Zhou himself. In the other three departments, there are many members of the Communist Party inclined toward the Communist Party. There are Vice Minister Zhou above and pro-Communist literati such as Yang Han Sheng Tian Han, and the students are single and lonely..."

Chiang Kai-shek thought about it and felt that He Zhonghan was talking about the truth, but now it is the Kuomintang-Communist cooperation to fight against Japan. These three halls were originally used to accommodate ** and pro-communist people, so they could make trouble.

"You are the director, and they still have to listen to your words. You have to fight for Zhou E. You should not shout inappropriate slogans." Chiang Kai-shek's tone was much more relaxed.

He Zhonghan breathed a sigh of relief. This was passed. Before he could think of Chiang Kai-shek glanced at him and said, "Junshan, you have many things to do, but don't slack off. Learn about the Cultural Revolution, Southwest Development, Chongqing Mayor, everything is yourselves. Now you have a look. If you have the chance, please ask him for advice."

He Zhonghan agreed, but felt very uncomfortable. He secretly held his breath since Huangpu. He admitted that he could not catch up with Zhuang Jihua's troops, but he did not lose to him in other aspects, but now, he completely lost.

After He Zhonghan left, Tang Zong came in and reported that Yang Yongtai was invited to see him. Chiang Kai-shek was a little stunned, and then repeatedly said please.

Yang Yongtai just came out of Nanjing. Compared to Gu Zhenglun, he left with great brilliance and gloriousness. During the fierce battle in Nanjing, he sent away most of the government staff, but he himself said he would not leave. When the periphery of Nanjing was broken through, Zhuang Jihua asked him to leave. He said that some local officials had the responsibility to defend their territory and resist the war. He was the mayor of Nanjing. As long as Nanjing was still in the hands of the Chinese, he would be the mayor of Nanjing and refused to leave.

On the contrary, Gu Zhenglun became "ill" when Wu Fu Line was in critical condition and asked to go back to recuperate, but Zhuang Jihua refused. Gu Zhenglun connected his relationship with Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Mei-ling. Soong Mei-ling pleaded with Chiang Kai-shek, saying that instead of asking Gu Zhenglun to cause trouble for Zhuang Ji-hua in Nanjing, it would be better to let him go and let him go back to recuperate, and take the opportunity to remove him from his position as military police commander. Chiang Kai-shek nodded and moved to Zhuang Ji-hua to remove Gu Zheng-lun from military police commander and transferred him to Wuhan for another appointment. Zhuang Ji-hua was not polite, and took the opportunity to propose the appointment of Xiao Shanling as military police commander. Chiang Kai-shek agreed, so Gu Zheng-lun returned to the rear in shame to recuperate.

"Changqing, thank you for your hard work." As soon as Yang Yongtai came in, Chiang Kai-shek showed great enthusiasm. He had always thought that Yang Yongtai was accustomed to Japan and was a weak scholar. Unexpectedly, he had such courage this time and was not afraid of him.

Yang Yongtai smiled faintly: "Where is Yang's obligation."

"If officials at all levels can be like Mr., why not worry about the war of resistance?"

"The Chairman is so serious, just perform his duties."

"How is Nanjing now?" Chiang Kai-shek asked while asking Yang Yongtai to sit down, and then personally called the guards to serve Yang Yongtai. This made Yang Yongtai a little flattered.

He cleared his throat and calmed down and smiled: "Nanjing is already an empty city, almost all citizens have run away, and the rest are either soldiers or rescue teams of the front teams, or Western journalists."

“What about the frontline situation?”

"Attacking Wujin," Yang Yongtai sighed. When he first started the counterattack, he was very excited and hoped to fight to Shanghai, at least to restore the Xicheng line. Zhuang Jihua told him that the counterattack could only be stopped in moderation, and his troops were almost exhausted.

Don’t think at all: “I went to see the Cultural Revolution before I left. He said the best way to advance in martial arts, and no matter how far I go, I’m afraid it won’t work.”

"Cultural Revolution, let me hand this letter to the Chairman." Yang Yongtai said as he took out a letter and handed it to Chiang Kai-shek.

Chiang Kai-shek took it, and the envelope was bulging. He tore open the envelope and it turned out to be more than a dozen pieces of paper. Zhuang Jihua analyzed the current situation in the letter. The Japanese army transferred troops from North China and Manchuria. The Japanese army's troops in North China will inevitably be weak. The government should take this opportunity to deploy North China and suggest sending troops into the Taihang Mountains. In addition, after the Japanese reinforcements arrived, it is inevitable that Nanjing would fall. It is recommended to lower the current propaganda. After Nanjing fell, the Japanese army's love for each other had two combat directions, one to open up Tianjin.

The road, another one continues to advance westward; in comparison, the possibility of moving westward is not high. To the south of the Yangtze River, the scale of the Japanese army's combat is likely to be aimed at protecting Nanjing and eliminating our army's strongholds outside Nanjing; and the possibility of opening up the Jinpu Line and connecting North China and central China is greater. Therefore, the troops in the fifth war zone should be increased immediately and counterattacks were launched in Shandong. Finally, Zhuang Jihua suggested that since Deng Xihou was unwilling to be in the second war zone and Yan Xishan was unwilling to ask for him, then the 23rd Army would be transferred to the fifth war zone.

"The Cultural Revolution also said that the War of Resistance is long-term and publicity is particularly important. The propaganda force should be strengthened. Propaganda and public organizations should not be handed over to others. He suggested that some of the students of the original Blue Yi Club be in charge of publicity and send all those who are willing to go to Yan'an to Yan'an." Yang Yongtai and Chiang Kai-shek added after reading it that Zhuang Jihua's words did not fall on paper.

"Cultural Revolution, be careful about everything," Chiang Kai-shek shook his head and said, "He is pleading for Deng Wenyi around the Bay."

After the Xi'an Incident, Deng Wenyi was arrested. When Zhuang Jihua took over the commander of the Nanjing Garrison, he asked Chiang Kai-shek to release the criminal officers imprisoned in Nanjing prisons. Chiang Kai-shek agreed. As a result, Zhuang Jihua incorporated all the criminal criminals of all political prisoners in the prison into the army. The criminals asked them to commit crimes and make meritorious service. The political prisoners were even better. Don't you shout about anti-Japanese all day long? Now that the Japanese army is here, you have a chance.

Deng Wenyi re-entered the army. Zhuang Jihua still asked him to be responsible for propaganda and mobilization. Of course, he would never be allowed to lead troops. This person never brought troops. However, after the Nanjing citizens withdrew, Deng Wenyi was fine and had nothing to do all day long. Zhuang Jihua asked him to take several work teams to the city and villages of Jiangbei, with only one task, to promote and recruit new recruits, and then handed these new recruits to Hu Zongnan, so that Hu Zongnan could be responsible for training. Even so, Zhuang Jihua still believed that Deng Wenyi was useless.

But among the Huangpu classmates in the Xi'an Incident, Chiang Kai-shek hated the most not He Zhonghan, but Deng Wenyi. After Deng Wenyi returned from the Soviet Union, Chiang Kai-shek promoted and reused him. During the pacification of the party, he let him stand alone in Guangzhou. Later, he made him serve as a guard by his side for several years. It can be said that he was the one who put the most thoughts on it. But he didn't expect that he would be betray him in the end, which made Chiang Kai-shek very angry, so no one dared to plead for him at this time, and even Zhuang Jihua could only go around.

Chiang Kai-shek saw through Zhuang Jihua's intentions at a glance. Yang Yongtai couldn't say anything at this time. Deng Wenyi hurt Chiang Kai-shek's heart. This was not a problem of talent.

"What did Teng Jie do in Nanjing?" Chiang Kai-shek remembered what He Zhonghan said just now. He was alone in the third hall and couldn't help but think of Teng Jie, a propaganda expert.

"The Cultural Revolution asked him to take people to the villages near Wuhu to carry out propaganda and recruit soldiers." Yang Yongtai couldn't help but sigh again: "I only now understand why the Cultural Revolution emphasized reserve service so much in Sichuan. Almost half of the troops were left, even less than half. The Cultural Revolution was there. Not only did you have to consider the future now, but you only had to sleep for two or three hours a day, and you lost a lot of weight."

"Don't worry, I have ordered Zhang Wenbai to go to Hunan. He promised to recruit 50,000 new recruits to the front soon." Chiang Kai-shek comforted Yang Yongtai. In fact, he knew that these 50,000 people could only be said to be able to use guns. They were not able to go to the battlefield in less than a few months of training.

"Mr. Changqing, I want you to go to Sichuan and serve as the mayor of Chongqing," Chiang Kai-shek said hesitantly. Chongqing is now a escort capital, and can be comparable to the mayor of Nanjing, but... it is not in the center.

Yang Yongtai did not answer, but actually asked him to choose the local dialect. If he could not stay in the central government, he would rather go to Chongqing. After being demoted last time, he understood that it would be impossible to gain a foothold in the central government without systematic support. At that time, the Department of Political Science and Technology was so loud that it would collapse. In addition to firmly grasping the party department, the party affairs system was all their local people from top to bottom, and also controlled the secret agency of the Central Commission for Transport. To fight with them, it must be combined with local forces. Zhuang Jihua is the most suitable.

However, Yang Yongtai felt keenly that Chiang Kai-shek would definitely have other meanings when he asked him to go to Chongqing at this moment. Sure enough, Chiang Kai-shek said: "In addition to being the mayor of Chongqing, he also served as the deputy captain of Southwest Development. The captain is still Li Zhilong, so you are in charge of product distribution."

Yang Yongtai understood that Chiang Kai-shek was fond of those weapons and equipment, and he no longer wanted to let those weapons go, so he let Zhuang Jihua equip the Sichuan Army, so he thought of such a bad move.

The reason why it is said to be a wrong move is that Yang Yongtai is a member of the Central Committee, but Li Zhilong is not. His party status is higher than that of Li Zhilong, but he asked him to be his deputy to Li Zhilong, which is a bit funny.

"Chairman, all factories in Chongqing belong to Sichuan Development Company," Yang Yongtai reminded him with a smile in his heart: "The products are also owned by Sichuan Development Company, and Liu Xiang, Deng Xihou and others cannot take anything from the company at will, they have to pay."

Chiang Kai-shek remembered that Zhuang Jihua was building a company at the time, including all the powerful figures in Sichuan, and he reported it to him, but he did not expect that the company has become the biggest obstacle now.

Yang Yongtai dared not give any ideas. He knew the position of Southwest Development in Zhuang Jihua's heart. Whoever wanted to make trouble on this would be Zhuang Jihua's mortal enemy, and he would inevitably be attacked by Zhuang Jihua's desperate counterattack.

"You should take it together first, and the central government should give priority to it, especially to fight tanks and rocket launchers." Chiang Kai-shek thought for a while, but he couldn't find a good idea, but he had already said that it was difficult to take it back. Moreover, he mixed Yang Yongtai's grain of sand, and he might have a chance in the future.

"Okay, I'll go to Chongqing now." Yang Yongtai stood up and said goodbye, but Chiang Kai-shek said with concern: "Don't worry, I'll take a rest in Wuhan for two days first and meet with people from all walks of life. During this period, you have a lot of reports and are also a hero of Nanjing. Wuhan citizens have long wanted to see you."
Chapter completed!
