There is a reason why Changshu suddenly gets tight.

The Dragon Boat Festival raid was successfully defeated and the 103rd Brigade of the Japanese, namely the Yamada Detachment. He also provoked Matsui Ishione and sent an interpreter back.

The translator reported the Dragon Boat Festival words to Matsui Ishienen by telegram.

Apart from being furious, Matsui Ishigen could only find other ways to retaliate against the Chinese army.

There has always been deep malice towards the Chinese in Matsui Ishien's heart. To talk about this, we have to start with the September 18th Incident.

After the "September 18th Incident", Japan supported Puyi to establish a puppet regime and declared the independence of the puppet Manchukuo. At this point, Japan's "Manchuria and Mongolian lifeline" problem seemed to be solved through the puppet regime.

However, how to make the international and even the Republic of China government recognize Manchuria as a "fait accompli" has become the most troublesome problem in all sectors of Japan.

Matsui Ishione believes that there are many political factions in China, relying on their connections at the top of China and their special relationship with the chairman (Matsui Ishione is a friend of the chairman, but later it was proved that these Japanese friends are unreliable. In addition to Matsui Ishione, there are also Sasaki Toyi and others. Before, they all claimed to be friends of Chinese people, but after turning against each other, they killed more Chinese people than anyone else.)

At that time, Matsui Ishione believed that with his special relationship with the chairman, he could find a gap in it and gained actual recognition from the Republic of China government for the puppet Manchukuo.

In February 1936, Matsui began his private trip to South China and Central China, lobbying for his "Greater Asiaticism" and testing China's reactions.

At the end of February, he first came to Guangdong and Guangxi via Taiwan and met with the Kuomintang right-wing Hu Hanmin, the leading figures of the Guangxi clan, Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi and Chen Jitang, who had a deep conflict with the committee members.

But no results were achieved. In this trip, he was nominally lobbying these people to support Chiang, but in fact he was to detect the various political forces in China and tone towards the Manchuria-Mongolia issue.

Because the two years after Matsui Ishien visited China, it was precisely the two years when China's civil war gradually subsided and anti-Japanese sentiment was rising.

Once all Chinese troops are gunned against each other, it will be greatly detrimental to Japan.

So on March 12, Matsui arrived in Nanjing and held talks with Zhang Qun, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the National Government.

On the 24th, Matsui visited the Chairman and raised the issue of helping to resolve the Southwest (i.e., the conflict between Chiang and Hu Hanmin and the Guangxi clique). Chiang did not agree. However, Matsui Ishione proposed to recognize the issue of puppet Manchukuo, which was immediately flatly rejected by Chiang.

At that time, Matsui Ishione told the Chairman that if you are not able to publicly recognize the puppet Manchukuo in view of the pressure in China, you can do not admit it in your public statement, and you can actually admit it.

However, his request was still flatly rejected by the chairman.

At this point, Matsui's trip to South China and Central China ended in failure, but this did not stop him from conquering China.

In March 1936, he made many speeches, demanding that the Chinese government be taught a lesson, that he must raise a hammer, give the Nanjing government a blow, wake them up and reflect on them.

So this is the horrifying Nanjing tragedy.

In other words, the Nanjing tragedy was completely planned and implemented by Matsui Ishione.

Therefore, regardless of whether the Dragon Boat Festival angers this old devil, the result will be the same. He will not let the Chinese go.

So, after Matsui Ishienen received the battle report from Xie Jiaqiao, he made a decision to re-plan the offensive direction.

Because Xie Jiaqiao's battle was originally a sneak attack and temptation. Since the Chinese were prepared, he must also change his tactics.

Moreover, the losses of a Yamada Detachment were not placed in Matsui Ishigen's eyes. Because in Changshu area, his layout has been almost completed.

He had only one combat idea in Changshu, which was to create chaos.

By massacring Chinese people, they have caused panic, drove Chinese people to flock to Changshu area, and then ordered Japanese devils who are proficient in Chinese, or elite Japanese troops to pretend to be refugees and mingle into Changshu City.

So, under the order of Matsui Ishien, on the way to flee west from the Songhu area, there were corpses everywhere, and the bodies of innocent people were everywhere.

The Japanese killed people when they saw them and robbed things when they saw them. They did everything they wanted.

So when war is not bound, there is only one consequence, and people will become wild animals.

Japanese soldiers acted recklessly on this land of China like beasts.

Driven by the Japanese soldiers, the ignorant people acted as advance teams of the Japanese devils. They were mixed with a large number of Japanese spies and even elite troops of the devils to Changshu City.

····················

At around 6 o'clock on the morning of the 17th, there were about 300 refugees in the group, and they forced a temporary checkout ten miles outside Changshu City on the road.

The 44th Division is responsible for the defense of Changshu area. Except for the battle with the Japanese army head-on, the rest of the division is blocking refugees from all directions. This will greatly consume the troops of the 44th Division.

Therefore, it can be said that Matsui Ishien's combat plan was very successful. On the one hand, refugees consumed the Chinese army's forces, allowing Sasaki Brigade to divide and encircle and annihilate the enemies on the periphery, while on the other hand, they sent a large number of Japanese spies to destroy and create chaos.

At this time, Changshu is in danger!

"Let's go! Let's go!"

"Have you let the dog eat your conscience? You can't beat the Japanese, but you can stop us ordinary people."

"Yes, if you hadn't retreated again and again, we wouldn't have left our hometown."

"Let us go, Changshu is Mi Cang, which can at least give us a full meal."

"Don't talk nonsense to them, let's break through!"

"Yes, we break through, I don't believe they dare to shoot!"

··············

Hundreds of people rushed forward together, and only thirty soldiers could not stop them.

The leader of the platoon leader was named Zhang. He took out his gun and shot at the sky.

After two gunshots, the people were finally shocked.

Platoon leader Zhang shouted: "Friends, it's not that I, Zhang Jie, are inhumane. But if I let you in now, it will harm you. Changshu is not a paradise, it is hell. The Japanese will be called immediately, and you will die if you enter..."

"Don't listen to him. There is a division stationed in Changshu. There are so many people who can't defend a Changshu city? They just don't want to care about us, are they the villagers?"

A small man with a Northeast accent took the lead in shouting.

And the other person also echoed: "Yes, they just don't want to care about us and let us die on our own."

"Yes, let us go! Yes, let us go!"
Chapter completed!
