After listening to the communications staff officer's explanation, Ishihara Wanji bowed his head to Nobuyoshi Muto with a look of shame on his face and said: "Your Excellency, General, I made a mistake in my humble duty, please punish me."

Muto Nobu looked at Ishihara Wanji with a livid face, and finally waved his hand impatiently: "Back off."

The Battle of Shenyang was already doomed, and Noda Cuckoo failed to successfully break through. This was not entirely the fault of Kanji Ishihara, the mastermind of the strategy.

Although Muto Nobuyoshi is old, he is not confused. The failure of this retreat cannot conceal Ishihara Kanji's outstanding performance compared with other senior generals of the Imperial Army.

If I could have listened to his advice earlier, I would not have fought a decisive battle with the Northeastern New Army in a battleground like Shenyang, but would have focused the main force on blockading the Liaodong Peninsula.

Relying on the navy's powerful artillery support, the Kwantung Army's current situation will never be so bad.

Ishihara Wanji knew how bad Muto Nobuyoshi was feeling at the moment, so he could only salute him with a military salute, then turned around and left with his saber in hand.

As soon as I walked out of the headquarters, I almost collided head-on with a communications soldier.

When the communications soldier saw it was Ishihara Wanji, he quickly put his feet back and stood at attention, saluting: "Sir, I'm sorry, please forgive me!"

Ishihara Wan'er didn't care and said: "What's wrong? Are you so panicked?"

"There is an urgent call from the lighthouse. Sujiatun and the lighthouse were attacked by the Chinese army and were unable to evacuate south." After the signal soldier finished speaking, he said that he wanted to report to the commander, and walked towards the headquarters.

"Lighthouse? Sujiatun?" Ishihara smiled and murmured to himself, suddenly his expression changed, he turned around and walked back into the headquarters.

"Your Excellency, Commander, the two divisions in Lighthouse and Sujiatun are in danger." Ishihara Wanji walked in. The communications soldier just now was reporting to Muto Xinyi.

"What danger?" Muto Nobuyoshi asked before he had finished listening to the signal soldier's report, and was obviously a little dissatisfied with Ishihara Wanji's sudden interruption.

"The Chinese Army's troops on the south bank of the Hun River desperately attacked the above-mentioned areas. Their purpose was very clear, which was to contain the evacuation of our two divisions, buy time for their main forces to cross the river south, and finally encircle and annihilate the two Imperial Army divisions. Group." Ishihara Wanji explained.

Muto Nobuyoshi frowned and pondered for a while: "Ishihara-kun, do you have any good ideas?"

Ishihara Wanji pondered for a moment and said: "General, we should immediately order the 1st and 9th Divisions to go north to receive reinforcements, and at the same time order the Beacon and Sujiatun troops to break out at all costs."

Just as Ishihara Wanji finished speaking, another Japanese communications soldier suddenly ran in in a hurry and said before saluting: "Your Excellency, Commander, there is an urgent call from Liaoyang. An armored unit of the Northeast Army suddenly appeared in Liaoyang and is currently attacking Liaoyang City. Liaoyang The situation is critical, Commander, please send reinforcements as soon as possible."

After hearing this, Muto Nobuyoshi and Ishihara Kanji's expressions changed greatly. Ishihara Kanji even slapped his thigh and exclaimed: "No, the China Army is also going to completely cut off the Imperial Army's retreat."

"Ishihara-kun, tell me. What should we do?" Muto Nobuyoshi nodded in agreement and asked.

"Disperse and break out." Ishihara smiled.

"Disperse and break out? Ishihara-kun, are you sure?" Muto Nobuyoshi was a little surprised.

Ishihara Wanji nodded seriously and said: "General, we must break out in a dispersed manner. Only in this way can these two divisions be able to withdraw as much as possible. It should be noted that although the strength of the dispersed breakout is greatly reduced, if the Chinese want to defeat them Total annihilation is no longer possible."

Muto Nobuyoshi nodded in agreement. He immediately said: "Immediately send power to the 8th Division and the 18th Division, disperse and break out, and retreat to Yingkou and other places. At the same time, the garrison troops in Liaoyang, Anshan, and Haicheng also immediately reduced their strength and prepared to deploy defenses at Yingkou. .”

"Hai!" The three Japanese communication personnel suddenly lowered their heads and responded, then turned and left.

"General, it's time to mobilize local reinforcements. The 200,000-strong army may not all be ready, but it shouldn't be a problem to send tens of thousands more new troops. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for us to hold the Yingjin defense line." Several messengers said. After the personnel left, Ishihara Kanji suggested to Muto Nobuyoshi:

"In addition, we also need to request the Ministry of War to ask the Ministry of Navy to send enough navy to provide support for sea-based aviation and various artillery groups."

"Yes, I will." Muto Nobuyoshi nodded in a gentle tone.

……………………

The Battle of Fushun has ended. The Japanese troops entrenched in the Shenyang area have been wiped out except for a few who managed to escape.

North of Shenyang City, Beidaying.

"Commander, in this Shenyang battle, together with the results of the Tieling and Xinmin battles, we have annihilated more than 160,000 Japanese troops. We have captured a lot of weapons, but not much ammunition. Most of them were used up by the little devils.

If we eat up the two Japanese divisions in Sujiatun and Dingtao, the total number of enemies we will wipe out in this battle will exceed 200,000. It will definitely be an unprecedented victory for China and Japan since their existence!" Jiang Baili was very happy. He said to Zhang Xinghan excitedly.

Zhang Xinghan was also very happy, nodded with a smile, and said: "Give power to each division, immediately cross the river south, join the main force of the Japanese 1st Division, and first eat the two Japanese divisions on the other side."

"Yes!" Jiang Baili stood up and responded, then turned and left.

Not long after, Jiang Baili turned back with a solemn expression.

"Chief of Staff, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Xinghan asked, seeing his serious expression.

"Commander, we just received an urgent report from Deputy Commander Niu of the 1st Division of the Communist Party of China. The main force of the Japanese troops in Beacon and Sujiatun has escaped."

"Run away? What does Niu Erzhu do for a living? How many regiments can't contain the little devil?" Zhang Xinghan was furious when he heard this.

"The little devils learned a lesson this time. Instead of retreating along the railway line, they scattered and fled. How could Niu Erzhu's two infantry regiments get through?" Jiang Baili said.

"Damn it, the little devil actually became cunning. He told Niu Erzhu to pursue him immediately and not to worry too much. When the little devil escaped, he chased me.

Then notify Li Zhenyuan and ask him to immediately divide his troops to the areas on both sides of the railway line to intercept and kill the Japanese troops fleeing south." Zhang Xinghan was a little angry, how could he let the duck fly again after it caught his mouth?

"Yes!" Jiang Baili nodded, stood up and saluted, then strode out of the headquarters.

……………………

"Deputy Commander, Commander-in-Chief Zhang called us and ordered us to pursue immediately at all costs!" A communications soldier reported to Uncle Niu in an unknown small village east of Sujiatun.

"Okay, order the Second Regiment, the Third Regiment, and the Tank Regiment to immediately launch a pursuit." Niu Erzhu took the telegram, read it, and immediately ordered.

"Yes!" the communications soldier stood up and responded, followed the order and left.

In Liaoyang City, Li Zhenyuan had just received Zhang Xinghan's telegram. After reading it in a hurry, he said to the adjutant: "Order each regiment to stop the bombardment, and use companies and platoons as units to disperse and intercept the Japanese who have fled from the north."

The adjutant immediately took the order and left. Soon, the four tank regiments stopped shelling, and the two motorized infantry battalions were ordered to withdraw from the encirclement.

……………………

About 17 kilometers away from the eastern suburbs of Nanjing, there is another place called Tangshan. It has beautiful mountains and clear waters, and beautiful scenery, especially the hot springs here. In later generations, it was ranked among the top four health hot springs in the country.

Therefore, during the Republic of China, it became a summer resort for senior officials of the Nanjing National Government.

Many senior officials of the National Government purchased or built villas here to live in.

As a leader of the National Government, President Chiang is no exception. He has two secret mansions in Tangshan.

Usually when they got tired of living in Nanjing, Principal Jiang and Mrs. Song would move to Tangshan to live for a while.

In a villa in Tangshan somewhere, Chairman Chiang was walking along the rockery in the villa with his cane and accompanied by Mrs. Song.

Suddenly, a burst of rapid footsteps disturbed the couple's enjoyment.

The visitor was none other than Dai Li and Dai Yunong, whom President Jiang had appointed as his minister.

Chairman Chiang smiled apologetically at his wife and patted her hand.

Mrs. Song smiled back and walked straight towards the pavilion in front.

Dai Li then came closer, stood upright and saluted, "Principal, I'm sorry to bother you."

"Yunong, if you have anything to say, please tell me quickly. Business is important." Chairman Jiang waved his hand.

"Principal, the Japanese have been defeated." Dai Li said bluntly.

"Failed? What happened?" asked Chairman Chiang Kai-shek.

"In the Battle of Shenyang, almost all the 200,000 Japanese troops were wiped out. The Northeast New Army was victorious. The main force of the Kwantung Army has been completely lost." Dai Li said, briefly describing the intelligence he obtained on the Shenyang battlefield to Chairman Chiang one by one.

once again.

After listening to this, Chairman Chiang could not help but nod and exclaimed: "The young are to be feared, the young are to be feared. In less than two years, he has pulled up such a force and was able to defeat Japan's Kanto region by himself with an outnumbered enemy."

military?"

"Principal, this person has become a bad guy and should be eliminated as soon as possible. Otherwise, with the speed of his development, he will become a big problem." Dai Li said: "The student suggested that now that the Battle of Shenyang has been successfully concluded, the principal can send another message to urge him to come to Beijing to report on his work.

, and when he arrives in Nanjing, we will immediately take special measures to get rid of him."

After Dai Li finished speaking, he found that Principal Jiang was deep in thought. He bowed his head respectfully and waited for a long time before Chairman Jiang gently shook his head and said: "No, we can't send any more messages to urge him for the time being, otherwise it will be easy for him to doubt our intentions.

.

Since he has agreed to come to Beijing and people all over the country are watching, he naturally dare not not come. If you do this, go back and notify the communications room, and immediately send a congratulations to Zhang Xinghan in the name of the Nationalist Government Military Commission, and commend them for their unprecedented victory."

"Yes." Dai Li nodded, and asked tentatively: "Principal, do you want the students to prepare in advance? Wait until Zhang Xinghan comes to Beijing." As he said that, Dai Li made a gesture of wiping his neck with his hand.

Chairman Chiang immediately shook his head and said: "No, no matter what, Zhang Xinghan is now the anti-Japanese hero of the entire nation. He has high prestige and influence in the hearts of the people. If he died in Nanjing, it would have an unbearable impact on us."

.”

"Then arrest him?" Dai Li asked.

"It will depend on the situation at that time," Chairman Chiang said.
