Chapter 92: The Sword Breaks the Captive
According to the plan, Song Yuhang, who should have contacted the 231st Division, he hesitated. This time he went to Chongqing because the Military Commission made a temporary decision, and in order to hurry, he had to take a risk to take a plane. I believe that there will not be many people who know, especially few and few people who know the exact time and flight route. Without ruled out the infiltration of Japanese intelligence personnel, Song Yuhang was more considering whether someone in Chongqing would kill people with a knife? After all, there are many factions within the National Government, and his rise is extremely rapid, it is reasonable to inadvertently violate the interests of some people.
The 231st Division on the other end of the dam bridge discovered an abnormality on Woniu Mountain. In the temporary command post in the woods, it was so sad that it was bleak. In just half a day, the 231st Division paid more than 1,200 casualties in order to compete for the bridgehead position. Most of the casualties were veterans and officers who relied on the 231st Division to turn over. At this moment, the troops were on the verge of collapse. Cao Fangde was speechless about this rescue operation with heavy losses.
The Japanese army left a squadron to monitor the 231st Division, and the rest of the troops quickly attacked and advanced in the direction of Chen Fufa's retreat. A small team of Japanese troops searched Woniu Mountain in a sloppy manner, and only used grenades to conduct firepower reconnaissance on the nearby hills, and then chased the Japanese brigade.
Song Yuhang, hiding under the broken wall of the valley, looked through a military map seized by Xu Tuan from the Japanese Army Chief Cao who was shot. What shocked Song Yuhang was that this local Japanese military map reprinted in the Showa year was 8,000:1. It actually marked the name of the Laid-Gang Dam in the Qing Dynasty in Chinese and Japanese, and the attachment page also marked with small tips such as geographical, earth, meteorological and water patterns.
"I have been plotting against Japan for a long time!" Song Yuhang took a breath slightly and threw the map back to Xu Tuan.
Xu Tuan tried his own m1911 and said, "What's wrong? We blame ourselves for not being able to do our best. Most of the mountains and rivers were lost, but our own people were still fighting in the middle, for money, for fame, and for power!"
Song Yuhang looked at the sunset in the sky and said, "Nothing for anything else, just for our worthy of the nation and the country. For a hundred years, some people will remember those of us who have shed blood and sacrificed for the nation-state today."
Song Yuhang's bold words attracted the soldiers of the rescue team. A round-faced assaulter stared at Song Yuhang with bright and clear eyes, and asked seriously: "Sir, did you say that after a hundred years, there will really be someone who will remember us?"
Recalling the various things in his previous life, Song Yuhang suddenly felt sad for those young people who had forgotten the pain of war in later generations who had never smelled the smell of gunpowder, and those boys and girls who talked about praising Japanese and Korean waves!
"Do those descendants who are soaked in Japanese and Korean dramas still remember their ancestors? These heroes who use their lives and blood to defend the freedom and independence of the Chinese nation? In the future generations where material desires are rampant, how many people still remember the sufferings suffered by the nation-state today?" Song Yuhang was a little confused.
"It depends on man! We must fight for the greatest benefit and living space for the nation and the country." Song Yuhang's eyes suddenly became sharp. Then he said in a firm tone: "We will definitely remember the sacrifices of our lives today! For this vicissitudes of nation and this suffering country, all our sacrifices today are not for others, but for our children to breathe the fresh and free air and live under a sky without war!"
Compared with the fierce battles in Song Yuhang, the process of escape from the previous area was simply not worth mentioning. After the contact with the 231st Division of the Land was ordered to retreat after the night was ordered to retreat. The Japanese army and local restraining troops then retreated. Using the cover of the night, Song Yuhang successfully passed the dam bridge under the cover of the rescue team led by Xu Tuan. He did not contact any friendly troops along the way. He arrived in Chongqing smoothly with a special pass for the Military Commission.
Chiang Kai-shek immediately set up a family banquet to entertain Song Yuhang. He was shocked! During the conversation before the meal, Chiang Kai-shek expressed his intention to investigate the attack on Song Yuhang's landline. However, Song Yuhang knew that most of the investigations were fruitless. I believe that no accidents would happen this time.
Then Chiang Kai-shek began to complain that the Allied military and local aid was too stingy for Britain than they were. Especially the fact that China has been asking for 500 aircraft. It was said that 387 of them had been accepted by the British for use in North Africa and local defense.
Then Chiang Kai-shek began to complain endlessly that the sky in Chongqing was becoming increasingly unsafe. Soong Mei-ling also interrupted: "Compared to February and July, the air traffic flow between Chongqing has been reduced by 80%. Because the 10th Air Force under General Chennard's command lacked fighter jets, accessories, ammunition and oil. They could no longer stop the Japanese Air Force from driving straight into the sky. There is no safe place in China."
Chiang Kai-shek complained that Song Yuhang was naturally aware of the complaints from Chiang Kai-shek. The phased defeat of the Allies in the Pacific battlefield led to the gradual reduction of strategic materials available to China's war zone. Originally, in history, the Japanese army lost a large number of ground planes and warships on the Pacific battlefield. But now, the US Pacific fleet suffered heavy losses. As one goes up and down, the Japanese army can naturally free up more ground, air and sea forces to cooperate with political temptation to put pressure on China.
According to the current situation, under the premise that the atomic bomb is not used, Song Yuhang does not believe that the Allies can defeat Japan in 45 years and make it surrender.
The dinner was basically Zhejiang cuisine. Since there were not many people eating, there were only six dishes, most of which were seasonal green vegetables. It can be seen that Chiang Kai-shek's personal life was quite simple. Perhaps he pursued power rather than luxury enjoyment! Song Yuhang smiled slightly self-deprecatingly.
For the carnivore Song Yuhang, it was tasteless to eat. Even so, Song Yuhang still added three suppers in a row and ate all of each dish.
Chiang Kai-shek looked at it with great joy. He nodded and affirmed, while talking to Fengshu in his extremely dialect: "Jingguo lacks this kind of vitality, and he is too weak as a soldier."
Although Soong Mei-ling smiled and nodded in agreement, she did not agree with Jiang's words from the bottom of her heart. Song Yuhang is now one of the best gods of killing in China. It is said that when the retreat of Myanmar retreated, she would eat Japanese people alive as food. Soong Mei-ling disagreed with this barbaric and inhumane behavior. However, she knew that what her husband and country needed was such a powerful general at the moment, but she absolutely disagreed with her son learning from Song Yu-hang and killing people.
Due to the bombing of Japanese planes for several consecutive days, Chongqing was subject to light control. The night in the mountain city and the dark sky seemed to devour everything made Song Yuhang feel unrestrained.
After dinner, Chiang Kai-shek summoned Song Yuhang to the study. Song Yuhang keenly discovered that the committee seemed to be much thinner than when we met last time?
Chiang Kai-shek did not smoke, nor did he liked others to smoke in front of him, but today he made an exception to prepare cigarettes and cigars for Song Yuhang! Chiang Kai-shek smiled and pushed the cigarette box to Song Yuhang.
Song Yuhang was stunned at first, then said: "It seems inappropriate to smoke in the principal's study!"
Chiang Kai-shek posed and said, "We are our own people, you can do whatever you want. Don't call the principal in such an occasion in the future."
Song Yuhang naturally did not dare to take Chiang Kai-shek's politeness seriously, and still straightened his back and looked like he was listening to the instructions. When Chiang Kai-shek saw that Song Yuhang was always afraid of being arrogant in front of him, he was naturally very happy. It was hard for him to imagine that Song Yuhang, who was like a good baby in front of him, would be a murderous devil who panicked when the Japanese heard it.
Chiang Kai-shek asked about the formation of the troops, and Song Yuhang's fully prepared answer made him very satisfied. Chiang Kai-shek was filled with emotion about the Song family being able to produce such a powerful general!
"A great country has been passed down for five thousand years. The generals of the country must be supported by good soldiers and powerful generals!" Chiang Kai-shek took out a command knife with very exquisite workmanship from the bookcase and handed it over to Song Yuhang.
When Song Yuhang took the command knife, he realized that this knife was twice as heavy as an ordinary standard. The scabbard did not use the technique of inlaid with gold and silver, but carved several sets of plum blossoms, and the party emblem was engraved in the center of the plum blossoms.
Seeing Song Yuhang stunned at the knife, Chiang Kai-shek said with a serious expression: "This knife was created by the three great masters of Longquan Town, Jiangxi Province. The sword name is Polu. It was originally the sword when Mr. Sun Yat-sen was preparing to take office as president. Later, because the sword name was too fierce, he did not wear it. Now I will give this knife to you!"
When Song Yuhang heard that it was Sun Yat-sen's sword prepared for the presidency, he would not dare to take it! But Chiang Kai-shek pointed at the sword and said, "Pull it out and take a look!"
Brush! Song Yuhang did not dare to act rashly. He pulled out only half of the clamping spring. The cloud pattern on the blade immediately brought Song Yuhang a hint of chill. There were two lines of official script about an inch of swallowing his mouth. One acted as a bloody heart. Don’t forget Nanjing, and the other act of avenging revenge and promoting our country’s power!
These two lines were obviously added later. After seeing these two lines, Song Yuhang nodded. Chiang Kai-shek nodded with satisfaction and said, "Now, many people inside and outside the government are not optimistic about the current situation, lack confidence in the government to win the war, while soldiers lack the determination to sacrifice. After the Chinese New Year, I plan to expand the 200th mechanized brigade into a mechanized army. The number has not been determined yet, but you will not be promoted. Lieutenant General is already a burden for you now. Fight a few more beautiful battles and don't let down the deep expectations of the country and the government for you."
"Yes!" Song Yuhang immediately stood up and said with sincerity: "The Ministry of Justice vowed to serve the leader to the death and serve the Party and the country!"
