Chapter eight hundred and fortieth war day, long live
Chapter 840 War Day, long live!!
"well!"
Thunderous cheers continued to come from the theater.
Wang Hengyue also cheered loudly, but to be honest, he didn't know anything about Peking Opera. He cheered so much just to prevent himself from appearing out of tune with others.
Ashamed, really a little ashamed.
As a Chinese, the dignified President of China, but he is a layman when it comes to his own national quintessence, and it would be embarrassing to tell anyone about it.
"President, all ships have completed their combat preparations!"
The low-pitched report brought Wang Hengyue back to his senses, and then nodded slightly...
Jiang Baili yelled "Okay" loudly to the stage, and turned around to say:
"Tell Chen Ce and Wang Mingzhang to establish a beachhead before dawn and gradually advance after dawn."
"yes!"
Watching a show and directing a war at the same time, I'm afraid it's only his commander-in-chief who can do this, right? Wang Hengyue thought with a smile.
This war has been planned for a long time. In order to find an "excuse", he repeatedly asked fishermen from neighboring seas to "fish" near Kyushu Island to anger the Japanese navy.
Finally, on September 11, the Japanese navy shot at a Chinese fishing boat...
There were no casualties, but this was enough for Wang Hengyue and the squadron he led. Any tiny excuse was enough to form a reason for war...
A "feast" is about to begin!
Mei Lanfang's performance on the stage finally came to an end, and the audience in the audience was intoxicated. Crazy cheers and applause were still ringing out like a tide.
Wang Hengyue also stood up together with his chiefs and kept clapping and cheering. Zhang Xueliang beside him said in a low voice: "President, I have prepared some late-night snacks. Look..."
"No! Next time!" Wang Hengyue waved his hand: "Let's go back!"
The drama here has just ended, but another big drama is about to take place...
...
September 17, 1934, 23:50 at night.
Ministry of National Defense of the Republic of China.
Most of the senior generals have gathered here, and the Ministry of National Defense is completely silent. Everyone is patiently waiting for the last moment to arrive...
The cigarette in Wang Hengyue's hand was half burned, and he seemed to have forgotten to put the cigarette into his mouth...
He was not worried about the outcome of the war at all. He was thinking about the series of reactions after the war.
What actions will Japan take? What will happen to the international community? These are all things you must consider.
It is now 1934, the war is getting closer and closer, and the beginning of the world war is this military operation against Kyushu, Japan?
Maybe. I have already changed too much history, and it doesn’t matter if I change a few more...
Suddenly I thought, how will the history of future generations evaluate me? A great man who led China to prosperity? An out-and-out dictator who took launching wars as his own responsibility?
In other words, is he a hypocrite always wrapped in a coat of peace?
Thinking of this, Wang Hengyue couldn't help but smile...
No matter what future generations say? No matter how they evaluate themselves! You just did what you should do!
Time passes minute by minute, and everyone always raises their wrist to look at the watch intentionally or unintentionally, or their eyes fall unconsciously on the big clock in the corner.
"When-when-"
A long and melodious bell rang in the house.
September 18, 1934 is here!
The phone on the table also rang at the most appropriate time. The director of the war room picked up the phone and listened for a while, then came to the side of the Chief of National Defense Zhang Xiaohuai and said a few words in a low voice.
Zhang Xiaohuai looked solemn: "President, General Chiang, and all colleagues. On September 18, the 23rd year of the Republic of China, the special force of the Third Army of our National Defense Forces launched a landing operation against Japan's Kyushu..."
start!
Operation Goujian—begin!
After a short period of silence in the room, a burst of cheers erupted.
It has begun, it has finally begun! The moment that countless people have been waiting for! All previous wars against Japan took place on Chinese soil, but now, on Japanese soil, the heroic Chinese National Defense Forces have landed!
Long live War Day!
The cheers were short-lived, and then everyone fell into busyness...
The phone rings one after another, the shouts keep ringing, and the voices that are either urgent or stern keep ringing...
Long live War Day!
Wang Hengyue put the cigarette back to his mouth, and then realized that the cigarette had been burned out. He smiled lightly, threw away the cigarette butt, took out another cigarette, lit it, and took a strong puff.
The cigarettes taste good, and the "President" brand is also a trademark named after "President". I should consider asking these merchants for some trademark usage fees.
When the guns are fired, there are thousands of taels of gold. In wars, money is all that is fought...
"I'm afraid Han Qing is having supper with Boss Mei now, right?" Wang Hengyue suddenly asked in a confused manner.
"Ah, I'm afraid you've already rested, right?" Jiang Baili was startled and said.
"Oh..." Wang Hengyue was thinking there, grabbed the phone at hand, and tried to call his home. After waiting for a while, Ma Yunxin's sleepy voice came from the other side. Wang Hengyue then said: "Daughter-in-law, here.
I'll get some midnight snacks. If you want more, I'm afraid dozens of people here will be hungry..."
Jiang Baili listened on the side, smiled and shook his head.
For such a big operation as the war against Japan, Commander Heng first invited him to listen to a scene, and then after the war broke out, the first thing he thought of was to get a midnight snack.
I'm afraid no one but himself can know what Hengshuai is thinking...
For more than an hour, the room was in chaos. One moment, people from the Ministry of National Defense rushed in to report the situation, and the other moment, people from the General Staff rushed in to ask where the fleet was advancing.
Ah Le was yawning on the side. Isn't it just a small Japanese attack? Is there any need to mobilize so many troops?
In A Le's opinion, conquering a small Japan is easy. There is no need for Heng Shuai to take command here... Go back and sleep early to recuperate. There will be an emergency parliament meeting tomorrow.
!
Ma Yunxin and several family members brought two large pots full of rotten noodles.
This kind of noodles is made by boiling the noodles in water, and then adding shredded cabbage and pork. You can eat them as you like, and it won't be a problem if you leave them there all day.
Wang Hengyue made a bowl by himself first: "Everyone, please put aside what you are doing and come and try the craftsmanship of the president's wife. This craftsmanship is not just for bragging...Daughter-in-law, hard work, hard work..."
Ma Yunxin smiled and put aside the side dishes such as pickled mustard and dried radish: "You guys eat slowly, I have to go back to sleep."
I wasn't very hungry at first, but after Wang Hengyue ate it so sparingly, everyone here felt hungry, and they all scooped it up and ate it politely.
Fighting on the front lines and eating noodles in the rear, this can be regarded as a unique scene for the Chinese side under the leadership of President Wang Hengyue.
"The main thing is that if others see it, will they say that we are calm and confident of winning?" Wang Hengyue felt comfortable after eating a large bowl of noodles. He put down his chopsticks and asked, "If we make a movie, tell us how we did it."
How calm you behave in the face of war!"
Jiang Baili finished one bowl and made himself another bowl unceremoniously: "Actually, being calm during the war and not worrying at all after the war broke out are all fake. A commander with more war experience,
After the war came, I always felt a little uneasy, but some people are good at controlling themselves and don't easily let their subordinates notice their inner feelings."
"That's a good statement." Wang Hengyue poured out the water in the cup and replaced it with some tea leaves: "There's nothing more to me than listening to you tell the truth. Cannons start roaring and machine guns start speaking. Who wants to say more?
No matter how calm you are, it's all bullshit. If President Jiang can say such things, in my opinion, our victory is already 90% certain."
At this time, the phone rang again, and a staff officer was about to get up to answer it. Wang Hengyue waved his hand to let him continue eating, and picked up the phone himself.
"The Japanese fired artillery, and our Third Fleet began to fight back. After 20 minutes of artillery battle, our Third Fleet has successfully suppressed the local coastal defense artillery fire, and is destroying the enemy's coastal defense bases one by one. It started at about 4:30 in the morning.
Log in!"
"Don't come to report this kind of thing in the future." Wang Hengyue said slowly to the phone: "When I call again, either the front line needs reinforcements, or my landing troops have successfully landed. We have already figured out how to fight these things on the front line.
knew."
"Damn, who are you?" The other end of the phone was furious: "I want to report to the superiors and fire you!"
"Ah, I am Zhang Mofeng..." Wang Hengyue said the name of the staff officer casually.
The real Zhang Mofeng was holding a noodle bowl in his hand and was stunned. What was going on? What if the person on the other end of the phone had a bad temper and rushed to Nanjing to collapse?
Wang Hengyue quickly put down the phone and said to his subordinates with a smile: "It seems that the overall situation has been decided. Next, it is time to face the Japanese side's protests and counterattacks. Oh, by the way, there will also be an emergency parliament after dawn...
..."
Jiang Baili put down the bowl, stood up, and picked up the phone: "Director Chen? This is Jiang Fangzhen. Order all my ships to go out and be on standby, ready to welcome the Japanese fleet's counterattack at any time!"
After saying that, he grabbed another phone: "Zhang Zuolin? My task force is landing in Kyushu, Japan, and your second-echelon army is ready to land at any time!"
Wang Hengyue sat down again, and everything was on a normal track according to his expectations.
This was September 18, 1934, the 23rd year of the Republic of China. On this day, the war officially broke out.
Long live War Day! Long live D-Day! Although all this is just the beginning, more intense battles are still waiting for the squadron.
