The ninth theater of the Yichang Battle resisted the attack of the four major Japanese divisions. It not only eventually repelled the Japanese attack, but also defeated the 112th and 11th divisions of the Japanese army, annihilated 18,000 enemies, and captured 25 Japanese wounded soldiers.

During the entire battle, the Ninth Corps captured Shayang County and pushed the front line forward for dozens of kilometers. It can be said that it achieved a brilliant victory. Although they also lost more than 25,000 people, such a battle-loss ratio can be said to have made great progress compared with previous battles.

This battle took the initiative in the battlefield from the beginning, and the troops in the entire Ninth War Zone fought with scrupulous measures and did not experience major crises.

Such a result made the commander-in-chief Zhang and others very satisfied. The 20th Corps of the Sichuan Army also belonged to the Ninth War Zone. They are now waiting for Gao Jiu and others to report the results of the Sichuan Army. Together, the total result is even more exciting.

At this time, the Chief of Staff said excitedly: "Sir! The battle report of the 20th Corps has been reported."

He recited: "The 20th Corps captured Zhongxiang City and captured more than 5,700 Japanese and puppet troops, including 3,115 Japanese troops. In this battle, Sichuan troops suffered a total of 512 casualties."

The results reported by Gao Jiu only included Zhong Xiang. The results of the 112th Japanese Division that they used artillery to eliminate were not counted, and were all counted on the head of the Ninth Corps.

The officers and soldiers of the Sichuan Army didn't care much about these results, because they had made a lot of money and it was meaningless to care about the numbers that annihilate the enemy.

Deputy Commander Zhang said with great emotion: "Mr. Gao and others are still powerful. They have eliminated more than 5,000 enemies. In fact, they have not only killed more than 5,000 enemies. They have also killed many enemies of the 112th Division, but they have not calculated the results of the battle here. They have eliminated so many enemies and captured thousands of Japanese troops, but only more than 500 casualties have been killed and killed. Such a battle is really amazing."

The commander was very satisfied with Gao Jiu. He didn't know what would be like if Gao Jiu was there. The rhythm of the entire battle was always controlled by Gao Jiu, and the final result was similar to Gao Jiu's pre-conceived idea. Not only that, Gao Jiu did not report their results in destroying the enemy army of the 112th Division, which avoided the Sichuan Army's troops competing for merit with the Ninth Corps, and the commander reduced a lot of trouble.

He nodded and said, "Yes! Mr. Gao will never disappoint."

The Chief of Staff and Deputy Commander Zhang immediately combined the results reported by the Sichuan Army with the previous statistics to report the victory to the Military Commission.

This great victory in Yichang can be said to be a brilliant victory. The guo army lost more than 20,000 people, which was equivalent to consuming the strength of a Japanese division. It can be said that it caused heavy damage to the Japanese army. The Japanese army temporarily lost the ability to attack in the direction of Yichang.

The defensive front in Yichang has advanced dozens of kilometers forward, further enhancing Yichang's security.

The Military Commission was very satisfied with the great victory in Yichang, and promoted it with great fanfare, and commended the meritorious personnel of the Ninth War Zone. The commander and chief of the Ninth War Zone received the second-class Yunhui Medal, Deputy Commander Zhang, Chief of Staff and a group of generals of the National Army respectively won the third-class, fourth-class and fifth-class Yunhui Medal. The outstanding performance of the Aviation Commission and the Flying Tigers in this battle were also rewarded by the Military Commission. After this battle, the troops of the 21st Corps proved their loyalty to the Guo Mansion. They regained their trust, which can be said to be very happy.

The members of the Mid-English advisory group were also commended for their brave behavior in their way behind enemy lines.

Gao Jiu said hello in advance, and this battle focused on promoting the image of the guo army, so the commendation meeting did not mention Gao Jiu's name.

Of course Gao Jiu didn't care about this anymore. He returned to his villa and accompanied Ouyang Xue wholeheartedly.

After returning to Chongqing, the members of the Mid-English advisory group left the Ninth War Zone and came to the reception desk of the Military Command. They were also very satisfied with this trip to Yichang. Recently, they were still talking about their experiences during this period, and their words attracted a person's attention.

On this day, Weidman and others were chatting in the bar. Suddenly, everyone stopped chatting and looked at the door of the bar.

A female captain of the Mi Army wearing a boat-shaped hat appeared at the door. She saw her flaming red lips, her hot figure was bulging and tilted, and her tall figure, and she looked like a natural beauty. Her name was Mary, and she was a Mi Army war correspondent.

Miss Mary is only 23 years old. Although she is so young, she is just a US military combat correspondent, but she has a very good background. Her father is a US senator. This young lady has a strong competitive spirit. She hopes that she can write a good news article that won the Pulitzer Prize for Journalism, but in China, she really can't find a better subject.

She is adventurous and traveled thousands of miles to China despite her parents' opposition, hoping to find inspiration on the Chinese battlefield.

"hello! Miss Mary." The officers of the Mid-English advisory group greeted her one after another.

The target Mary was looking for this time was Wedman and others. She smiled at everyone, moved her round thighs in exquisite cowhide boots, and walked towards them.

She said, "Hello! I'm going to find you if I have something to do."

An American officer hurriedly prepared a chair for her, asked her to sit down, and asked the waiter to change her to a new set of tableware.

Wedman asked, "Miss Mary, are you doing anything to us?"

Mary said: "I have heard of your bravery in your way deep behind enemy lines. I want to interview you and give you an in-depth report so that readers in China can also share your brave battle experience."

When they heard that Mary came for this, the people in the Mid-Jeuri Consultant Group were extremely excited. This was exactly what they were proud of. They wanted someone to report their experiences, not to mention that the one who came to interview them was a beautiful woman like Mary.

The officers were very enthusiastic and showed off their experiences to Mary with great enthusiasm.

After listening for a long time, Mary didn't think that the people in the advisory group were of great significance. Instead, Gao Jiu, which they repeatedly mentioned, aroused her interest.

After interviewing Wedman and others, Mary found Gao Jiu's phone number from the reception staff and then called Gao Jiu.

After the phone was connected, Mary signed up for her home and asked to interview Gao Jiu.

The person who answered the phone was Ning Wu, and he refused Mari without hesitation. He said, "My Ninth Master said that he would not accept any interviews." After that, he hung up the phone.

Miss Mary was very depressed. She thought she would definitely be warmly received, but she didn't expect that this would be the result.

After putting down the phone, she said angrily: "What's so great about this Gao Jiu? What a big air." Miss Mary was really angry. You know, in this era of the Republic of China, admiring foreign countries was a general mentality of the people, especially American female journalists like Mary who were beautiful, born with noble status. Those generals from the government were very polite to her.

Mary didn't expect to be rejected here. She got angry for a moment and didn't want to interview Gao Jiu again.

But curiosity is extremely or even fatal to women, not to mention that she is a reporter.

After Gao Jiu rejected her, she became more interested in Gao Jiu. After inquiring, she found that almost everyone admired Gao Jiu very much.

Gao Jiu's status is almost like a god.

This suddenly aroused her competitive spirit, especially when she heard that Gao Jiu was a young handsome Chinese guy, she looked at her charming face and erect figure in the mirror, and she was very confident in her heartthrob temperament. She didn't believe that Gao Jiu could reject her.

So, she stopped informing Gao Jiu in advance, so she directly asked for a car and arrived at Gao Jiu's villa.

Gao Jiu's villa was very vigilant. Mary's car was far away from his door and was stopped by a group of Military Affairs officers. After checking Mary's ID, they let her go.

Mary arrived at the gate of the villa, and a group of fully armed special forces team members stood in front of the door. They also checked Mary's ID, but did not let her in. A special forces team member went in to report.

After a while, Ning Wu came out. Ning Wu said directly: "You go back, our Jiu Ye will not accept any interviews."

Mari was very unhappy and wanted to argue with Ning Wu. Unfortunately, Ning Wu's English was not very good and she couldn't quite understand her words.

He looked at Mary's scarlet little mouth and kept opening and closing. At the beginning, he was a little stunned. After a while, he became impatient and said, "Don't say anything. My Ninth Master has no time to see you, so go."

When Mary saw the special forces members one by one, she knew that if she continued to argue, she would not have any results.

She cursed "rude." She got into the jeep and was about to leave. At this moment, a military jeep with the American flag drove over. The person in the car turned out to be Colonel Wedman.

Colonel Wedman saw Mary's face tense and unhappy look, and said, "Miss Mary, what's wrong with you?"

Mary said dissatisfiedly: "This arrogant Gao Jiu is really hateful! I want to interview him, and his men blocked me out of the door. These people are so rude and rude."

Wei Deman smiled, and he said proudly: "Actually! You don't know Mr. Gao. Mr. Gao is very well-educated, gentlemanly and sincere in treating others. There is a reason why he doesn't see you. You may not know, I don't know how many people come to visit Mr. Gao every day, I guess there are about thousands of invitations.

Mr. Gao’s wife is now pregnant, and Mr. Gao just wants to make time to accompany his wife more. For those who come to interview, no matter which reporter you are, Mr. Gao will definitely not receive."

Mary asked curiously, "Then what are you doing?"

Weiderman said proudly: "I am different. I am Mr. Gao's friend. I don't need to inform you when I come to Mr. Gao."

Mary looked at Wedman up and down, and Wedman was a little furious.

Suddenly Mary smiled, and she said diligently: "Mr. Colonel, we are old friends too. When you go to see Mr. Gao, can you take me in?"

Wei Deman smiled in his heart. On weekdays, Miss Mary was above the top and didn't look at the officers of their Mid-English advisory group. When did Wei Demany become Mary's friend?

However, seeing Mary begging softly, the hormones on Wedman began to churn. In order to show that he had face in front of Gao Jiu, he said, "Okay, go with me, but don't mention the interview, just say you are my friend and come to visit Mrs. Gao together."

Mary has been a journalist for a long time and is very skilled in human nature. She understood what Wedman meant, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Weidman walked and smiled, "Miss Mary, I will help you this time, how can I reward me in the future?"

Mary said perfunctorily: "When I have met Mr. Gao, I will treat you to coffee when I have time." As she said that, she followed Wei Deman and walked towards Ning Wu.

Ning Wu had already seen Wei Deman coming, and also came forward and said politely: "Mr. Wei Deman, are you here to see my Master Gao Jiu?"

Weidman said: "Your Mr. Gao and Mrs. Gao are all fine. I'll come to ask Mr. Gao for some questions."

Ning Wu did not stop him, but looked at Mary vigilantly and asked, "Mr. Wedman, what's going on with this lady?"

Hearing this, Mary was a little nervous, afraid that she would be stopped again.

Weidman said with a smile: "Miss Mary is my friend, I just want to go with me to see Mr. Gao and Mrs. Gao."

Ning Wu nodded and reminded: "My wife cannot be overworked. Please take care of the time to meet."

Weidman said: "It must be sure, don't worry."

At this moment, a convoy drove over. The convoy had a huge formation. In the front, there were an armored vehicle, then three motorcycles, with military service agents wearing top hats and holding submachine guns. Then there were two luxury cars, followed by a truck, loaded with guards loaded with guns and live ammunition.

Ning Wu hurriedly said to Wei Deman and others: "Please wait a moment." After that, he went forward.

The first thing that came out of the car was a handsome young man in a suit. He came to the back seat of a car, opened the door, and respectfully greeted a noble lady with extraordinary demeanor and gracefulness from it.

Wedman and Mary have both met this person, but this person turned out to be Ouyang Xue's cousin.

The two of them really couldn't imagine that such a noble person would come to visit Gao Jiu.

After my cousin entered, Ning Wu said politely to Weideman and Mary: "Please come with me!" He took them to a living room and said: "I'm sorry, please wait here. After my cousin leaves, Mr. Gao and his wife will meet you."

Wedman and Mary had no objection. Seeing Gao Jiu's situation here, they felt that they were worth the trip.
