The time came two months later.
The Japanese army captured Changsha.
After Principal Chang received the news of the fall of Changsha, he cursed the Japanese soldiers as pigs and Xipi.
After the Japanese captured Changsha, they imitated the Eighth Route Army and issued a nationwide power grid, plunging the whole country into a haze.
"Reporting to the head of the regiment, we have just received a nationwide telegram from the Japanese army and Changsha has fallen."
Wang Dehou held a telegram in his hand, walked quickly into the regiment headquarters, and reported to Li Yunlong.
Li Yunlong took the telegram and looked at it, but there was not much expression on his face: "As expected."
Zhao Gang took the telegram, read it, and said: "As early as a month ago, Boss Chen sent us information that the Japanese were preparing to attack Changsha, Hunan Province."
"Our Eighth Route Army office in Shancheng has passed the military command and reminded Principal Chang. Unfortunately, they didn't believe it at all."
"The Japanese army used a blitzkrieg offensive to attack Changsha, and the Chinese army was not well prepared, so it was expected that Changsha would be captured."
“It’s a pity that millions of people around Changsha in Hunan Province have suffered.”
At the end of the sentence, Zhao Gang sighed.
After the Japanese capture Changsha, there will probably be a period of burning, killing and looting.
Li Yunlong narrowed his eyes, looked at Wang Dehou, and said harshly: "Immediately ask the headquarters to send a nationwide telegram. If the Japanese dare to burn, kill, and loot in Hunan Province, hundreds of strategic bombers from the Eighth Route Army will blow it up within three days."
Japanese Tokyo, destroy the Japanese Locust Palace!"
Today, a certain tacit understanding has been formed between the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese Army.
The Eighth Route Army no longer bombed the Japanese mainland, and the Japanese invaders in China committed fewer and fewer incidents of burning, killing and looting.
But if the Japanese dare to commit massacre, then Li Yunlong doesn't mind letting the Japanese know what flowers are and why they are so red.
Although the Eighth Route Army does not yet have hundreds of strategic bombers, it must have enough momentum to make the Japanese feel a huge pressure.
"yes!"
Wang Dehou drafted a telegram and left quickly.
Principal Chang's mysterious operation of sending a telegram to the Eighth Route Army to dispatch troops to Hunan Province while ordering the National Army to retreat is puzzling.
Obviously, Principal Chang wanted to preserve his strength and let the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army fight to the death, while the National Army reaped the benefits.
But now the main force of the Eighth Route Army is resting and expanding its troops, preparing to accumulate strength and attack the Japanese in a big way.
So now, it's not time for the Eighth Route Army to send troops.
However, the Eighth Route Army sent some aircraft to provide air support to the National Army to avoid false accusations.
But even with air support, the speed at which the national army was defeated was still shocking.
Taiyuan.
Headquarters.
"Chief, Li Yunlong, the leader of the new regiment, just sent a telegram, requesting the headquarters to send a telegram warning the Japanese army."
The communications staff officer held the telegram sent by Li Yunlong in his hand, gave a military salute, and then reported it.
The headquarters received the telegram, looked at it, and looked at the chief of staff with a normal expression:
"This guy Li Yunlong wants to go with us."
The chief of staff took the telegram and read it. In front of the chief of staff, a telegram warning the Japanese was already prepared.
After reading the telegram sent by Li Yunlong, the chief of staff nodded with satisfaction.
Today's Li Yunlong has a very clear political mind and knows that this kind of thing needs to be done by the headquarters, rather than issuing warning telegrams to the Japanese on behalf of others.
"Send this telegram immediately in clear code."
The chief of staff handed the prepared telegram to the communications staff officer.
The content of the telegram was similar to what Li Yunlong requested. It mainly warned the Japanese not to mess around in Changsha, otherwise they would not be able to leave in vain.
"yes!"
The communications staff officer took the telegram, looked at it, solemnly, and walked quickly to the telegraph room.
"A telegram from YA."
At this moment, another staff officer walked in quickly with a telegram in his hand.
"Give me."
The chief of staff took the telegram and read it:
"It's also about the people near Changsha. The chief ordered us to dispatch about 30 strategic bombers to take a walk over Tokyo, especially over the Japanese Locust Palace, but not to drop bombs as a deterrent.
The Japanese cabinet and the locusts."
There was a hint of admiration on the expression of the deputy commander: "As expected of the chief, he thought further than us. He immediately arranged this matter and ordered the strategic bomber squadron directly under the headquarters to take off immediately and go to the Japanese country of Tokyo and the Japanese Locust Palace for a walk.
One circle."
Obviously, this kind of deterrent force of dispatching strategic bombers is obviously more direct than a clear message.
"This is called a two-pronged approach."
The chief of staff smiled slightly, then turned around and picked up the telegram on the table, and issued an order to the strategic bomber force.
The strategic bomber force is always on standby.
In addition, this flight mission does not require too many aerial bombs.
Therefore, after the headquarters' order was issued, the headquarters' 30 strategic bombers quickly took off from Taiyuan Wusu Airport and formed a flying formation toward the bandit area to the east.
…
Japanese country.
Tokyo.
Prime Minister's Office.
"It has been confirmed that the dispatched troops and the main force of the 11th Army have captured Changsha, China."
"After capturing Changsha in China, we can threaten the Chinese government."
"Hi."
"The statistics of the enemy annihilation this time are still being compiled. The Chinese government forces no longer pose a threat to the Locust Army. The next battle plan of the Locust Army is to eliminate the Chinese Eighth Route Army in North China."
"Hi."
"Hi."
Every time Tojo Hideji sounds happy, he will bend his waist ninety degrees and salute respectfully to the phone.
On the other end of the phone is Tian Locust, who only needs one sentence to remove him from the position of Prime Minister.
After hanging up the phone, Tojo Hideji's face showed a hint of excitement.
On the phone, Tojo Hideji received a commendation from Tian Locust, saying that the battle he launched this time was a good one.
How long has it been since His Majesty Tian Locust personally commended himself?
It’s been a year, right?
However, Tian Locust reminded Tojo Hideji that the main enemy of the Locust Army in China now is the Eighth Route Army in North China.
Although the Eighth Route Army could not be eliminated for the time being, Tojo Hideji wholeheartedly agreed.
With this award from Tian Locust, my position as Prime Minister will be stable for the time being.
As for the Eighth Route Army in North China, we can just deal with it slowly.
"Your Majesty the Prime Minister is so wise, I admire you so much!"
Just after hanging up the phone, Admiral Shitaro Shimada, the Navy Minister, came over with a flattering slap.
A look of pride appeared on Tojo Hideji's face.
"Your Majesty the Prime Minister is so wise, I admire you so much!"
War Minister Sugi Sangen quickly followed suit.
