Chapter 180 It's dawn!

Suzhou, Shanghai sent the condemnation army headquarters.

Matsui Ishigen opened the window, and the bitter north wind instantly poured in from outside the window. When the cold wind was aroused, the old Japanese suddenly became clear of consciousness, and the discomfort caused by a night of hangover disappeared in an instant.

Inside the house, Tsukada Otsuki, who was tilted to the ground, and Iimuma Masato was also awakened by the cold wind.

The two old Japanese quickly put on their coats, and then stood by Matsui Ishien's side, one left and one right!

Matsui Ishigen was far away from the eastern sky, and he held the glasses on his nose and said quietly: "It's dawn!"

"Hayi!" Tsukata Tomi paused his head and said leisurely, "It's dawn. Shanghai's 9th Division, 16th Division and 6th Division of the 10th Army should go into the city to sweep!"

Iinuma Moriya said: "There may still be sporadic Chinese troops in Nanjing to resist stubbornly, but these sporadic resistances can no longer cause too much storm!"

After pausing, Iimuma Mori said again: "At most, Nanjing will be the territory of the Imperial Army at noon!"

Tsukada Oku immediately said, "Then the Chinese government should surrender and we can return home!"

Matsui Ishien asked without comment: "Did you cross the river when you gathered in Shigaguan Wharf last night?"

"No!" Tsukatara shook his head and said, "Since there are only a small number of ferries at Xiaguan Wharf, and most of them are driven away by senior Chinese army generals, the tens of thousands of troops stranded at the wharf cannot cross the river. The 16th Division reported that at about two o'clock in the morning, the tens of thousands of troops returned to Nanjing City."

"Nani?" Matsui Ishien was surprised, "The Chinese army actually returned to Nanjing?"

"Hayi!" Iimuma Mori paused and said, "It must be the letter of persuasion written by the commander himself that had worked. These Chinese troops really believe that the Imperial Army can really keep their promises!"

"Baga!" Matsui Ishione scolded, "Of course the Japanese Imperial Army will keep its promises! But whether these Chinese troops have really given up on resistance and are not hostile to the Imperial Army still needs to be identified!"

"Hayi! Huizen's words are inappropriate, please punish him, Commander!" said Iinuma Mori.

"Forget it." Matsui Ishigen groaned and said, "Order, the 9th Division, the 16th Division, and the 6th Division should not be careless. Do not send large troops into the city immediately. Instead, send small troops into the city first, and then send large troops into the city to sweep away the remaining enemies! To avoid unnecessary casualties as much as possible!"

"Hayi!" Iinuma, and Tsukada Oku paused his head at the same time.

...

Luojia Mountain in Wuhan, Tingsonglu.

Although he had left Nanjing, the habit of getting up early that Chairman Jiang had developed for many years has not changed. Today, he still got up early before dawn and took a walk along the tree-lined trail outside Tingsonglu.

When Chairman Jiang walked to the eastern foot of Luojia Mountain with a civilized stick, a trace of white fish belly appeared in the eastern sky.

Looking at the morning light of Dongfang Weilu, Chairman Jiang said quietly to his confidants who were accompanying him: "It's dawn."

Zheng Jiemin, Chen Bulei, Qian Dajun, Wang Shihe and other close friends were all silent, and no one dared to answer.

After a moment of silence, Chairman Jiang said quietly: "I don't know, how are the more than 100,000 soldiers trapped on the Xiaguan Wharf now?"

Chen Bulei whispered: "Returning to the commission seat, Hu Zongnan called and said that when the 1st Army withdrew from Pukou at around 2 o'clock in the morning, there was no one on the Xiaguan Pier across the river!"

"There is no one on Xiaguan Wharf?" Chairman Jiang said, "Where have people gone?"

Zheng Jiemin responded: "According to information provided by the spymen lurking in the international security zone, these more than 100,000 soldiers of the National Army have returned to Nanjing and have all hid in the international security zone advocated by the German Rabe!"

"Did they hide in the international security zone?" Chairman Jiang said, "Isn't the security zone not allowed to enter with weapons?"

"This..." Zheng Jiemin looked embarrassed and said, "According to information provided by the spy, all the soldiers of the National Army entering the international security zone put down their weapons in accordance with the requirements of the security zone!"

"What, they've all been disarmed?" Chairman Jiang said furiously, "Mom Xipi, it's simply outrageous!"

Zheng Jiemin, Chen Bulei, Qian Dajun and others all remained silent, but they thought to themselves, is this very surprising? Since you issued a retreat order, you should have thought that today will be there, right?

After a while, Chairman Jiang stopped his anger and sighed and said, "If I had known, I wouldn't have ordered a retreat!"

In the second half of the sentence, Chairman Jiang finally didn't say it directly. He wanted to say that instead of letting these tens of thousands of elite soldiers be confiscated by the Japanese, it would be better to let them die on the battlefield directly! In this case, even if these tens of thousands of national troops fought for one, they could at least defeat more than ten thousand Japanese devils!

Unlike now, the Japanese can win Nanjing without typing!

At this moment, Chairman Jiang really regretted his intestines!

...

Meanwhile, Tokyo Bay.

Because he was going back to the United States to report his duties, the US Ambassador to China, and the US Ambassador to China, Stilwell, left Shanghai on the US Navy's cruiser, and drove into Tokyo Bay at sunrise.

Looking at the magnificent scene of sunrise on the sea, Jansen couldn't help but say, "It's dawn, this scenery is so beautiful!"

"Yes, it's dawn!" Stilwell was thinking about the Nanjing defense battle, and then said, "It's time for the final moment to defend Nanjing city!"

Jansen shrugged and said, "Joseph, are you still bothering about this?"

"Of course!" Stilwell said with a wry smile, "Before the Nanjing Defense War started, I and my colleagues at the embassy made war games on this battle. According to our deduction, the best result of the Nanjing Defense War was a draw, Japan was forced to negotiate peace, and the worst result was that Nanjing was lost and the Japanese army suffered heavy damage!"

After a pause, Stilwell continued, "But we still underestimate the ability of peanuts!"

"Stop, Joseph, stop!" Jansen quickly stopped, "This is not what we should ask about!"

"Yes, as an American, I shouldn't be inquiring about the war between China and Japan." Stilwell nodded and said, "I just feel sorry for those more than 100,000 national troops!"

Jansen said: "Those more than 100,000 national troops are indeed regrettable."

"However, the battle is not over!" Stilwell suddenly changed his mind and said, "Nelson, don't forget that there is another army active outside Nanjing!"

Jansen said: "You mean Zhong Yi's 367th Regiment?"

Shaking his head, Jansen said again: "Joseph, stop kidding. More than 100,000 national troops are not enough. What's the use of a mere regiment? What's more, this regiment is still a hundred miles away, and the Battle of Nanjing is over!"
