"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party cooperate to bomb Tokyo, Japan, and blow up the Japanese aircraft carrier!"
"Extra, extra, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party cooperated to bomb Tokyo, Japan, and blow up the Japanese aircraft carrier!"
"..."
Early the next morning, crisp sounds appeared on the streets of the mountain city.
Newsboys waved copies of Xinhua Daily in their hands and shouted loudly.
on the street.
A middle-aged man wearing glasses, a black imitation silk gown, a top hat, and cloth shoes.
He stopped and listened carefully for a while, then quickly walked to the newsboy and said, "Little brother, which newspaper are you selling?"
The Kuomintang and the Communist Party cooperated to bomb Tokyo, Japan and blow up the Japanese aircraft carrier?
You're not bragging, right?
The more famous newspapers and media currently include "Xinhua Daily", "Ta Kung Pao", "Shen Shen" and "Joongang Daily", etc.
However, there are also some miscellaneous media outlets that report some completely unfounded things.
For example, if a battle is lost at the front, these media will report that it is a victory, reporting good news but not bad news.
It goes without saying who controls these media.
"Sir, we are Xinhua Daily. Do you want a copy?"
The newsboy answered in a clear voice.
“Xinhua Daily?”
"Give me one."
Hearing that it was Xinhua Daily, the middle-aged man paid without hesitation and took a telegram from the newsboy.
The most credible media at the moment is Xinhua Daily. More than a month ago, the Eighth Route Army launched a large-scale offensive in Shanxi and annihilated more than 130,000 Japanese troops.
Every time, Xinhua Daily was the first to report the news of victory.
This middle-aged man is a primary school teacher in Shancheng and has long been a loyal fan of Xinhua Daily.
The middle-aged man quickly picked up the newspaper and read it.
What caught my eye were the big words on the first page of the headline: Tokyo is Burning!
Next to it is a slightly smaller line of words: The brave air force of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party made a great move in conquering Japan, and four hundred tons of aerial bombs broke the enemy's courage!
Just reading this headline and the words next to it can already make the middle-aged man's blood boil and his scalp numb.
The entire front page of Xinhua Daily reported the incident.
Not only the story of the bombing, but also pictures of the bombing of Tokyo and the bombing of the Japanese aircraft carrier Shokaku.
There are pictures and there is truth.
Yesterday, the headquarters had arranged for transport planes to transport some of the films taken about the bombing of Tokyo and the bombing of the Japanese aircraft carrier Shokaku to Yamashiro.
The staff of the Eighth Route Army Office and the "Xinhua Daily" were busy all night, and finally in the early morning, the first batch of "Xinhua Daily" news reports reporting on the bombing of the Japanese mainland were published.
Of course, some details of the bombing will definitely not be revealed in the newspapers.
but.
"Xinhua Daily" did not conceal the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, nor did it exaggerate the results. It was fully consistent with the real-time and factual nature of the news reports.
This is one of the reasons why Xinhua Daily has gained so many fans in this era.
"China can be saved!"
"China can be saved!"
"China will not die!"
"..."
After reading the headline news report in Xinhua Daily, the primary school teacher couldn't help shouting loudly, with uncontrollable excitement on his face.
It started when the National Government moved the capital from Jinling to the mountain city.
The mountain city was bombed by Japanese planes just across the mountain.
The people of the entire mountain city have been shrouded in the shadow of war and national subjugation in recent years.
However, the Eighth Route Army's consecutive victories and its ability to bomb the Japanese mainland gave this teacher hope.
The teacher walked quickly to the elementary school. Today he had to teach his students a lesson.
The name is "Tokyo Burning"!
At this time, several newsboys selling newspapers to "Xinhua Daily" were surrounded by people buying newspapers.
"Well done!"
"Blow up his turtle son!"
"The Eighth Route Army was still more vicious in fighting the Japanese!"
"It's the command of General Li Yunlong of the Eighth Route Army again. To kill the Japanese, it depends on General Li Yunlong!"
"..."
The crowd spoke in Shancheng dialect, and they were discussing excitedly with each other.
The news that the Kuomintang and the Communist Party cooperated to dispatch bombers to Japan, bombard Tokyo and blow up the aircraft carrier Shokaku, spread quickly through the mountain cities like a hurricane.
It's like dropping a heavy bomb on a calm lake, causing huge waves.
Everyone was running on the streets to tell each other about this victory. Within an hour, almost all the people in the mountain town knew about it.
People set off firecrackers one after another and took to the streets to celebrate, which was more lively than the Chinese New Year.
At noon, other newspapers and media also published the news of the victory.
"Declaration": The success of the Chinese Air Force's second expedition to Japan proves that China is very powerful and cannot be defeated by Japan!
"Ta Kung Pao": The enemy country refused to listen to the admonishment, and the air force went on a second expedition to Japan, bringing 400 tons of bombs to show China's military might!
The National Army's "Central Daily News": The Chinese air force can come and go freely, which shows that Japan's air defense is unreliable, and the Japanese will have no peace in the future!
The Eighth Route Army's "Border Area Daily": Breaking through the sky of thousands of miles, carrying forward the spirit of the Long March, and completing the glorious mission, Captain Condor marches to the island country!
Associated Press: Countries that love war and massacre will eventually bear the wrath of war!
…
At this time, the 4th Air Group had not announced its surrender to the Communist Party.
Principal Chang was very happy after reading Xinhua Daily. He directly ordered a commendation telegram to be sent to the Eighth Route Army and the 4th Aviation Group, and also ordered his subordinates to send Li Yunlong a general's uniform.
Although Li Yunlong doesn't know how to wear it and Principal Chang doesn't want to give it to him, Principal Chang has to give it to him. This is his attitude as the chairman of the committee.
soon.
Principal Chang also ordered the Eighth Route Army to dispatch air force units to deal with the Japanese aviation units in central China.
During this period, the Japanese army bombed the rear areas of the southwest Kuomintang-controlled areas with increasing frequency.
It seemed that the harder the Eighth Route Army beat the Japanese in North China, the more the Japanese took out their anger on the Chinese army.
At this time, apparently the Eighth Route Army still belonged to the National Army's order of battle.
Principal Chang thought that since the Eighth Route Army's air force had the strength to kill the North China Front Army's aviation unit and the expedition to Japan, there was a high probability that it would also have the strength to kill the Japanese aviation unit in Central China.
If the Eighth Route Army refuses to carry out the order, the Eighth Route Army will be charged with disobeying orders and sabotaging the war of resistance.
The recent continuous victories of the Eighth Route Army have increased the prestige of the Communist Party in the Kuomintang-controlled areas, making Principal Chang feel a crisis.
For Principal Chang, the rise of the Eighth Route Army was no less terrifying than the Japanese army occupying half of China.
And if the Eighth Route Army dispatched its air force to successfully raid the Japanese Army's Central China Airport.
Then the "Central Daily News" can publish that it was his Principal Chang who gave the order to the Eighth Route Army. He successfully picked a wave of peaches and let the people in the Kuomintang-controlled areas know that he, Principal Chang, is the top leader in China.
To say the least, if the Eighth Route Army Air Force failed to launch a surprise attack, both the Japanese and Japanese aviation units would suffer losses.
That's also excellent.
