Radio waves flew out of a luxurious villa in Jinan City. Two puppet officers hurried out of the villa. Not long after they left, a large group of Japanese military police and extra-high-end people surrounded the villa.

In Xuzhou City, Han, the stationmaster of the Xuzhou Station of the Army, hurried into the head of the Fifth War Zone. At this moment, the head of the head was heavily guarded by Chiang Kai-shek's arrival. It turned out that some reporters could come in, but now even they are banned from entering.

Han Feng got out of the car with a black leather bag tightly, his neat military uniform was spotless. After getting off the car, he habitually looked around, and then quickly walked into the small building of the headquarters.

"You can't attack Jinan," Zhuang Jihua looked very anxious in the combat room of the headquarters. He shouted at Chiang Kai-shek and Bai Chongxi with some disobedience: "The Japanese army in Jinan is waiting for us to attack, and we cannot be fooled by them."

"Cultural Revolution, don't be excited," Bai Chongxi looked at Chiang Kai-shek's face and quickly persuaded: "Shangangji Valley retreated to Jinan, but even so, most of the Japanese troops in Jinan were defeated, and we could attack hundreds of thousands of people."

Zhuang Jihua ignored Bai Chongxi's look at him and insisted on his resignation, not retreating: "The troops started to fight in mid-July and continued to fight for a whole month. The ammunition consumption was only half supplemented. The 59th Army, 40th Army, 2nd Army, and 3rd Army that initially started the battle suffered 60% of the losses. Jinan City was high and deep, with many mountains around it. There were natural dangers of the Yellow River in the north and Taishan Mountains in the south. It was dangerous and easy to defend and difficult to attack. But we only had the 49th Army, 24th Army, and 60th Army Tang Enbo's army had heavy artillery, and the rest of the troops lacked heavy weapons and were difficult to launch a tough attack. (〕This is not the main thing, but more importantly our soldiers."

Zhuang Jihua sighed and looked at Chiang Kai-shek and Bai Chongxi: "We have a large population, but few young people who have received military service. A new recruit must accept military service for at least three months before they can become soldiers. And the Japanese have high education and have received military training far exceeds us. Therefore, their soldiers are more than us and equipment are more than us. If we attack Jinan and lose a large number of veterans with combat experience, it will be very unfavorable for the next battle. I firmly demand that the attack be stopped, use Mount Tai and Mengshan to establish a defense line, and rest the team."

Of course Bai Chongxi knew that Zhuang Jihua's opinion was correct. Don't be attracted by the fact that the ** team has many numbers, these teams are actually very tired and have few ammunition, especially the shells and rockets. It is not the time to attack Jinan now. (　　

Li Zongren didn't want to fight Jinan either. The current situation of one army was not allowed. After the other ** refused Zhu De to be the commander of the First War Zone, he knew that he must be the commander of the First War Zone. This battle will surely be his last battle in the fifth War Zone. It will end whenever he wants it. Zaiyu left is the best choice.

"Cultural Revolution, you're too careful," Chiang Kai-shek was not tall. He didn't know what happened to Zhuang Jihua. Why did Zhuang Jihua, who firmly supported him in Nanjing, disappeared? Didn't he understand the purpose of his arrival in the state? However, Chiang Kai-shek still said with a smile: "We can defeat 120,000 Japanese troops under the city of Xuzhou, why can't the clown in Jinan be eliminated? You must know that we have more than 300,000 outside Jinan."

"Principal, one time and another," Zhuang Jihua couldn't help it, suppressing the anger in his heart, and explained again: "We can defeat the Japanese army, and there is indeed an important factor that is that the Japanese army marched straight in. They rushed forward and fought for two consecutive months. If we counterattack Jinan now, we would have made the same mistake as the Japanese army. At that time, Jinan could not be defeated, and not only did we put down the loss of troops, once the Japanese reinforcements came up, we might not even be able to defend Xuzhou."

"Jiansheng, what do you think?" Seeing that Zhuang Jihua was not moved, Chiang Kai-shek turned his head and asked Bai Chongxi.

Bai Chongxi knew that Chiang Kai-shek wanted to get support from him. After thinking about it, he said: "In the Cultural Revolution, be cautious in using troops. It is understandable to stop. My opinion is to try attacking, and if you fight, you will be stopped if you don't fight."

Seeing that Chiang Kai-shek's gaze turned to him again, Li Zongren said, "I think we should stop. Everything is too much. Now stopping the battle of Xuzhou is our complete victory, political and military victory. If we fail to attack Jinan, this victory will leave flaws and allow the Japanese army to explore our weaknesses."

Lin Wei hesitated and said: "Would you like to attack? The Japanese army retreated hundreds of miles, and our army has attacked the city of Jinan. How can we explain to the entire people if we don't fight?"

Zhuang Jihua's eyes rolled over Lin Wei and said, "Brother Weiwen, winning is just the icing on the cake, but what about defeat? Isn't it good to go to Xuzhou to supervise the battle personally and win a complete victory?"

This sentence surprised Chiang Kai-shek and felt that there was something missing in his calculations. (〕 Zhuang Jihua was reminding him that regaining Jinan was indeed brilliant, but the icing on the cake of the Xuzhou victory was limited to Chiang Kai-shek's popularity. On the contrary, if it failed, it would have a great damage to his prestige. No wonder Zhuang Jihua ignored his intentions and firmly opposed the attack on Jinan. In this way, Bai Chongxi wanted to fight, and his thoughts were worthy of fun.

While Bai Chongxi was still having fun, Li Zongren quickly reacted. He laughed and said, "Now our army is full of momentum. When we arrive at the edge of Jinan City, we don't attack. Even I feel a little frustrated.

When fighting, I also know more about logistics. The situation in the war zone now looks very good. I have a lot of worries, especially the logistics. The hundreds of kilometers from Xuzhou to Jinan were poisoned by the Japanese army along the way. The people were almost running away, and the food was difficult to meet the needs. Brother Wei Wen and Jiansheng were not very familiar with these situations."

Zhuang Jihua sighed in his heart. Li Zongren was cunning and could see that Chiang Kai-shek's idea of ​​attacking Jinan was shaken, and immediately began to redeem Bai Chongxi. Bai Chongxi looked at Li Zongren indifferently: "I think it is still possible to fight. At present, we have an advantage in the air and the ground. We do not have heavy weapons and can be compensated by air force. We can fight. (All novels are speeding up:]" Speaking of this, he opened the map: "You see, even if we don't attack Jinan, we can leave a main force to monitor the Japanese army in Jinan, and with one of the powerful members in Changqing, Pingyin crossed the Yellow River to attack Dexian, completely isolated the enemy defending Jinan."

Bai Chongxi proposed such a plan, which aroused Zhuang Jihua's interest. After thinking about it for a moment, he felt that this move was profitable, and at least it could scare Shiichi Shi'i in De County.

"General Bai is worthy of being a master of military strategy, and admire him," Zhuang Jihua smiled and said, "The troops monitoring Jinan are Tang Enbo and the 24th Army. The Forty-Ninth Army crossed the river, and the Second Army stayed in Tai'an to build a defense line. The principal, the number of supplementary soldiers is now missing. Xuebing and his friends recruited more than 60,000 supplementary soldiers near Xuzhou, and 30,000 supplementary soldiers were added during the battle. A week later, the supplementary soldiers from Guizhou and Sichuan can only be in place. With the training time, I estimate that there will be three months before the troops can be fully filled. The key question now is weapons and ammunition. Please ask the Chairman to urge Hong Junqi to meet our fifth war zone first. (〕"

"I have already ordered Hong Junqi." As soon as Chiang Kai-shek said this, Dai Li came in from outside the house and reported to the military commander of Xuzhou Station to obtain important information.

"Reporting to the Chairman of the Report, our military commander Jinan Station has obtained information. The main force of the 21st Division of the Japanese Army arrived in Jinan last night. The total Japanese army in Jinan City reached 50,000. At this moment, the Japanese army drove hundreds of thousands of residents in Jinan City to build fortifications around Jinan." Dai Li said expressionlessly: "In addition, the Japanese army dispatched the 20th Division from Shanxi and was traveling day and night to Shandong. Qingdao Station reported that a large number of Japanese troops were ashore in Qingdao, with a total force of more than 20,000. In addition, the Japanese army arrested workers in areas controlled by Shandong and built airports."

Zhuang Jihua sighed in his heart that the Japanese army's strong ability to lose has saved their crisis again, just like during the Battle of Guangxi, the Japanese army transferred reinforcements from North China and the country in just a few days, and our reinforcements came out of Yunnan and Sichuan, and it took nearly half a year to go, which fully reflects the huge gap in industrial capabilities between the two sides.

Dai Li is not finished yet: "The report from the Beiping Station, two mixed brigades of the Northeast Kwantung Army entered the pass from Shanhaiguan. I still don't know if they will be transferred to the Xuzhou battlefield."

With Dai Li's report, Chiang Kai-shek's face was gloomy, Bai Chongxi, Li Zongren and Zhuang Jihua's expressions were very complicated. Li Zongren now fully understood how Zhuang Jihua felt when he was in Nanjing. The Japanese army's mobility was too strong. If he attacked Jinan, it would not be possible to fight. With this month, the number of Japanese troops transferred from various places was probably no less than 200,000.

"It seems that you know the Japanese army better in the Cultural Revolution." Li Zongren sighed: "Chairman, Kenshen, you can't move forward any further. It's not worth the loss to move forward any further."

The next battle direction made the senior generals in the war zone unable to leave. Li Zongren's proposal was not approved by Bai Chongxi and Zhuang Jihua, but Chiang Kai-shek expressed his support.

Lin Wei watched them argue, and now Chiang Kai-shek and Li Zongren agreed to stop the attack and only sent small troops to cross the river; Bai Chongxi and Zhuang Jihua insisted on using a group of troops to cross the river. They believed that while the Japanese army had not yet gathered in place, they should step up the attack, expand the depth of defense, and lay a solid foundation for the next battle.

Now their position has been adjusted.

"Xu Shenzu, what do you think?" Li Zongren asked Xu Zuyi for his opinion when he saw Xu Zuyi coming in from outside the door. Xu Zuyi had a telegram in his hand, and he said with a wry smile: "General Jiang Baili, deputy commander of the Forty-Nine Army, called and asked to stop the attack and go to rest."

Zhuang Jihua immediately understood that this was Jiang Baili reminding himself not to be hot-headed and not to waste the troops like Nanjing did.

Jiang Baili's reputation was extraordinary. His telegram immediately shut up Bai Chongxi and stopped attacking and turned to defense as the final decision of the meeting. However, Zhuang Jihua proposed that the New 22nd Division crossed the river, with the purpose of not destroying the Japanese army more, but to tempt the north to search. Deng Wenyi led a propaganda team to follow the river, recruit new recruits and collect food north of the Yellow River. Neither Chiang Kai-shek nor Li Zongren opposed this proposal.

At the end of August, the Zhong** team arrived at the periphery of Jinan. Xiou Shouzao in Jinan held his breath and waited for the Zhong** team's attack. At this time, the Zhong** team stopped, then retreated ten miles and turned into defense.

At this point, the Battle of Xuzhou ended with the Chinese team winning, and the Japanese army retreated again after suffering from Beijing. This time they were more embarrassed than Nanjing, suffered greater losses, and retreated further.
