"Woo--"

The air raid sirens sounded shrill. Due to the continuous harassment of Japanese fighter jets during this period and the Chinese Air Force bravely responded to the battle, Japanese planes had few opportunities to truly carry out bombing and low-altitude strafing. The citizens of Nanjing were a little numb. But later, with the sound of sirens coming from the streets and alleys, the military police and police shouting from the streets, people woke up and dragged their homes to run to the nearby air raid shelter.

As the air raid alarm became more and more shrill, people began to push forward and backward, scream and curse. Some people stopped moving forward when they saw this, shouting, "I don't believe they will be so unlucky," and turned back to their homes.

At this moment, a dull roar from the plane engine came from the eastern sky. Those returning home looked up at the distant sky and saw a huge square array of black dots appear in the blue sky. The number was extremely terrifying, getting closer and closer to the sky above Nanjing.

"Oh, the Japanese's plane is really here."

"No, there are so many planes, this time I'm here to be true."

Those who were about to go home were in chaos when they saw such a situation and quickly led their families to run towards the air-raid shelter.

"Look at our plane and the Japanese are on the way."

I don't know who roared, and the running people looked up and saw that in the distant sky, planes began to attack the Japanese aircraft group. The detonation sound of fighter planes volleying in the air or the sharp roars and explosions made when they fell. The sky was covered with black and gray explosion smoke balls, which was terrifying.

On Fugui Mountain, Chiang Kai-shek stood in front of a cave on the side of the mountain, watching the flames inside and outside the city of Nanjing, and the Chinese and Japanese fighter jets fighting in the sky, feeling sad.

Qian Dajun took a leaflet picked up by the guards from the mountain and handed it to Chiang Kai-shek.

Chiang Kai-shek glanced casually and snorted coldly: "Old talk, I told me to stop fighting against Japan and turn to jointly fight against the Communist Party. If they are really sincere, they should withdraw from North China and stop at Songhu. Now, it is clearly a way to split my central government and disrupt our military morale. How vicious is it to do? "

Qian Dajun didn't dare to reply and quietly looked at the chaos in Nanjing at the foot of the mountain.

Hearing the explosion louder and louder, Chiang Kai-shek's mood became worse and worse. Yu Qian turned back to the command center in the mountain to discuss the situation with the military committee.

Navy Minister Chen Shaokuan was introducing the Japanese fleet to the Jiangyin blockade line on the map and facing the Liuhai sofa cannon in Langshanjiang. Lin Wei walked in with a telegram and said happily: "Chairman, great victory, Wu Ming's army has achieved another brilliant victory."

"puff--"

Qian Dajun had just taken the teacup from the guard and took a sip. He was shocked and sprayed the tea onto the wall, wetting a corner of the map in front of him. Fortunately, Chiang Kai-shek's attention completely attracted the "great victory" that Lin Wei said.

"What kind of victory? Wu Ming has achieved military achievements again?" Chiang Kai-shek was a little surprised.

Qian Dajun took out his handkerchief and wiped his mouth, asking, "Now the Japanese army is advancing together, and bad news is everywhere... Wu Ming will not lie about military merits, right?"

Lin Wei glanced at Qian Dajun dissatisfiedly and shook the telegram in his hand: "This was not sent by General Wu Ming, but a war report sent by Zhang Xianghua to the central government in the name of the right-wing army headquarters. With General Xianghua's character, Brother Mu Yin thought he would lie on such a principled issue?"

Qian Dajun swallowed and closed his mouth awkwardly.

Chiang Kai-shek sighed: "Wu Ming is indeed an ever-winning general. The New Second Division has made many outstanding achievements and is worthy of being the first elite in the Party and the country."

Seeing that Chiang Kai-shek gave the new second division an unprecedented evaluation, Lin Wei smiled and reminded: "The commission is the military achievements of the temporary third division."

"The third division?"

Chiang Kai-shek was slightly stunned. Although he had signed the order to upgrade the New Second Division to an army-level unit before, he only glanced at it slightly and did he have time to see the specific number.

"It is the temporary third division, which is to draw the troops formed by the Second Brigade of the New Second Division and the First Division and the Supplementary Brigade." Lin Wei patiently introduced to Chiang Kai-shek.

"oh"

Chiang Kai-shek nodded with relief.

Lin Wei turned around and introduced the specific situation to Chiang Kai-shek and the military tyrants: "According to General Zhang Xianghua's battle report, the Third Division launched an attack on the Japanese military Guozaki Detachment entrenched on the front line of Miaogang at 6 o'clock in the morning. After ten hours of fierce fighting, he killed the detachment leader Major General Kozaki Tom and seized a large amount of weapons and equipment, but they did not take any action and handed it over to friendly forces..."

"good"

Chiang Kai-shek praised him and said to He Yingqin, who was shocked, "Respect him, although Wu Ming is arrogant, he still understands the overall situation. The Ministry of Military Affairs allocated a batch of weapons and equipment to the new Second Division a few days ago. You are not happy. What do you think now? They will immediately repay the party and the country with their real achievements."

"Yes, the commissioner is right. Putting aside some shortcomings, General Wu Ming is indeed a general who is good at fighting," He Yingqin said with a smile, but he complained about Chiang Kai-shek in his heart. Not long ago, Chiang Kai-shek was still focused on controlling Wu Ming and the new second division. Now he changed his face so quickly that He Ying admired him very much.

Chiang Kai-shek was in a good mood and asked with a smile: "Jingzhi, Wu Ming's army has made great contributions again. How do you think we should reward him?"

He Yingqin's face turned dark and he spread his hands helplessly: "Committee, finances are very difficult now, and the reward has just been rewarded, so I think it can be appropriately slowed down."

Chiang Kai-shek's face became gloomy. After a while, his face returned to normal. He turned to Chen Bulei, who also looked ugly: "Yanji, the Ministry of Finance has repeatedly suggested printing of legal currency. You and Yongzhi and Ziwen strongly opposed it... I think the state is difficult, so I agree. Print 50 million in advance, allocate one million as a special military expenditure, and reward Wu Ming and the third division."

"this--"

Chen Bulei hesitated a little, but saw Chiang Kai-shek's face was haggard and his eyes were full of expectations, and finally nodded: "Okay, I'll call now. I believe Mr. Kong and President Song will understand what Chairman's difficulties are, and the first batch of legal tenders will be in place soon."

After Chen Bulei left, Chiang Kai-shek looked at the map: "The third division temporarily defeated the Japanese Guoqi Detachment, right?"

Lin Wei nodded: "The battle report said that the new second division had suffered major losses in Pinghu, and most of the newly formed temporary third divisions were recruits. Although this time, although it successfully defeated the Guoqi detachment, it also suffered great losses. I heard that there were four or five thousand casualties."

Chiang Kai-shek did not know that the third division of the temporary division would have increased the number of casualties several times. Long Shaogang was unwilling to falsely report it at first, but he could not withstand the persuasion of Dai Ziran and Yang Sixian, so he exaggerated it to win the sympathy of the War Zone Command and Chairman Chiang, and strive to give priority to the right to supplement weapons and new recruits.

Lin Wei handed the battle report in his hand to Chiang Kai-shek. Chiang Kai-shek turned two pages and handed the report to Qian Dajun, who was eager to try it out, and looked at Lin Wei:

"The KUJI Detachment is mainly composed of the Ninth Brigade of the Fifth Division, right? Thinking about the performance of the Itagaki Division in the Shanxi battlefield, you can know how powerful the KUJI Detachment is. It is understandable that there are so many sacrifices. The 3rd Division has achieved such a great victory, so the personnel must be given priority. Weizhi, what do you think should be handled?"

Lin Wei pondered for a moment and suggested: "It is better to instruct Wu Ming's troops to recruit soldiers at will in this way."

Generally speaking, the national army had to recruit soldiers in designated defense areas, and recruiting soldiers across regions was a taboo. Lin Wei's proposal was equivalent to expanding the scale of the new Second Division several times in terms of military selection. It has to be said that the opening was very large.

Chiang Kai-shek thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, the party and the country cannot treat the heroes unfairly, the more we should reward those troops who are dedicated to the country and sincerely resist the war. They will never tolerate those who are slanderous and cheating."

Speaking of this, Chiang Kai-shek glanced at Bai Chongxi, who was still alive.

Bai Chongxi seemed to have heard nothing, and was still staring at the map with all his attention, as if there were flowers on it.

The news of the defeat of the Kōzaki Detachment, like a thunderbolt, Matsui Ishigen exploded into a scorchy outside and tender inside. Matsui Ishigen held the table with both hands, and his face changed several colors, first red, then blue, and finally bared his teeth and cursed fiercely: "Bagaya Road"

Matsui Ishiken couldn't suppress the anger in his heart. He waved his hand and swept the official documents and telegrams in front of him to the ground. His eyes were red, as if he wanted to choose someone and swallow them.

Chief of Staff Major General Iimuma coughed gently and advised: "Commander, the failure of the Kōzaki Detachment has already happened, please calm down."

"Yoxi"

After a moment of calming down his emotions, Matsui Ishigen returned to normal face, and sat back on the chair: "Did you figure it out? Which army of qian defeated the Kōzaki Detachment?"

"From the information sent back by the intelligence department, it should be the Third Chinese Division, which is a newly formed unit that was split by the Second New Division." Iimuma Mori replied carefully.

"It's Wu Ming again, this damn new second division"

Matsui Ishigen gritted his teeth and said authentically. Since the outbreak of the Battle of Songhu, the Japanese Navy and Army have suffered heavy losses from the New Second Division. Now Wu Ming and the army he led have become a nightmare for all Japanese soldiers.

What's even more disgusting is that a mysterious Japanese radio station recently appeared, spreading the achievements of Wu Ming and the New Second Division to the middle of the Japanese army through news programs, and hyping up the terror of Wu Ming and the New Second Division, causing huge commotion, which was a heavy blow to the morale of the Central China Front Army.

Matsui Ishigen was in a state of confusion and had a split headache. He stretched out his hands and pressed his pounding temples and asked, "Where has the Seventh Division of Sombi and Ichiro arrived?"

Iimuma Mori pointed to the map on the table: "Because the Chinese people destroyed the railways and highways very thoroughly, and the frequent attacks of cold guns and mines during the march, the 7th Division was slow to move. It has just passed through Jiaxing City and headed towards Kishi Town. It is expected that it will not be able to reach Kishi tomorrow afternoon."

Matsui Ishien stood up, leaned over and observed carefully in front of the map, and suddenly issued an order: "Call the people and Ichiro, and ask him to take the 7th Division north immediately and attack Nanxun with the 2nd Division. There are four main divisions participating in the battle, and I want to smash all the defense lines that the Chinese army has worked hard to run."

Iimuma Mori hesitated a little: "Commander, the headquarters sent the second and the 7th Division to join the central China battlefield to encircle and annihilate Wu Ming and the New Second Division..."

"Go and send the order. I have a new combat plan. I believe Wu Ming and the New Second Division will not escape." Matsui Ishigen waved his hand and interrupted the Chief of Staff. The corners of his mouth trembled slightly, and a sinister grin appeared on his face.

Iinuma Mori wanted to ask about Matsui Ishigen's new plan, but seeing Matsui Ishigen's firm look, he had to shut up his mouth tactfully.
