Chapter 39 Great Victory
He Ajiu asked, "Ayi, what are you talking about?"
"You will know then." Zhong Yi shook his head and said, "I have to go to the Snake King Hall now. If the mountain cannon was not fired at the critical moment, I really don't know what the situation is now."
He paused for a moment and said, "If you want to kill all the Japanese soldiers on the mudflat, you still need mountain cannons to help you!"
"Ayi, wait for me, I'll go too." He Ajiu quickly followed, turned around and said to Wang Zilong, "Brother Wang, I'm sorry, you have to work hard to stay here!"
Wang Zilong nodded and said, "No problem!"
After saying that, Wang Zilong shouted again: "Look at the seawall for me, don't let the Japanese soldiers touch it!"
When He Ajiu followed, Zhong Yi said, "You don't have to go to the Snake King Hall. Go back to the ancestral hall and send a telegram to Boss Dai. The Battle of Kingsoft Guard has come to an end for the time being, and this is a great victory."
He Ajiu showed a slightly embarrassed look on his face, and then said, "What does it mean? It must be yes!"
After pausing, He Ajiu's face showed another morbid red color, saying, "Since the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, when has our Chinese army achieved such a great victory?"
Zhong Yi was silent, the Chinese Jun team really did not achieve any decent victory.
The Eighth Route Army fought a great victory in Pingxingguan, which only killed more than a thousand Japanese soldiers, and was still a baggage force.
But today, they killed at least 2,000 Japanese infantry at the beachhead of Jinshanwei! If yesterday's one is added, there will be more than 4,000 people!
"It's fine. The key is that we only have half a battalion of regular troops. This is simply a miracle, an unprecedented miracle in the history of war!" After a moment of pause, He Ajiu said in a more emphasis on his tone, "Ayi, you are famous now. Boss Dai said, Chairman already knows you!"
"Is that true?" Zhong Yi just smiled slightly when he heard this. As a PLA soldier born under the Red Banner and raised in the new era, he really had no good feelings for Chiang Kai-shek.
"Hey, don't you feel excited?" He Ajiu said in surprise.
"Excited?" Zhong Yi asked back, "Why am I excited?"
"Because Chairman Jiang already knows you!" He Ajiu said, "You are going to be successful!"
After a pause, He Ajiu said again: "Ayi, you will be promoted in the future, don't forget me, brother!"
"Future?" Zhong Yi shook his head and said sneered, "It's still a matter of whether he can live a life tomorrow in a chaotic world. How dare you hope for the future?"
After saying that, Zhong Yi strode without looking back.
Although the Kingsoft Defense Battle was won, Zhong Yi knew very well that this would not affect the overall situation of the Battle of Shanghai and even the Sino-Japanese War! The only thing he hoped was that Chairman Jiang would cherish these two days!
Seeing Zhong Yi's back being stunned, He Ajiu got on the rickshaw and headed straight for Caojing.
Zhong Yi was not excited at all, but He Ajiu was so excited that he had to rush back to Caojing as soon as possible and report the defeat of the Jinshanwei victory to Boss Dai!
...
Nanjing, commander-in-chief.
The battle situation in Songhu became increasingly severe. The middle lane had retreated to the south bank of Suzhou River. Although the left-wing cluster was still in the big field and was still in stalemate with the Japanese army, all the troops participating in the battle were exhausted and were almost at their limit!
As long as I have a little brain, I know that withdrawing troops from Songhu is an imperative!
But Chairman Chiang refused, and he insisted on waiting for the Brussels meeting to withdraw before resigning!
Until now, Chairman Chiang still has unrealistic fantasies about the West and the Nine-National Convention, hoping that the Nine-National Convention can interfere with the Sino-Japanese dispute and put pressure on Japan!
However, today, neither Chairman Jiang nor his staff were paying attention to Songhu.
Without exception, everyone's attention was focused on Kingsoft Guard, waiting anxiously, waiting for the latest news from Kingsoft Guard: Did it hold it down? Or lost?
Whether Kingsoft Guard can survive today is crucial to the entire Battle of Shanghai!
Because of nervousness, Chairman Jiang didn't even dare to look back at the wall clock and asked Chen Cheng: "Ci Xiu, what time is it?"
Chen Cheng raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and replied in a low voice: "Secretary, it's already past twelve o'clock!"
"It's past twelve o'clock?" Chairman Jiang said with a look of expression and asked again, "I remember that at this time, the tide time of Jinshanwei was ten o'clock in the morning, right?"
"Yes." Chen Cheng nodded and said, "It's the beginning of the month now, and the tide is gone by around ten o'clock!"
"But no defeat has been reported until now, which means that Kingsoft Guard has not yet been lost? Right?"
Chen Cheng hesitated for a moment and replied: "It is the case in theory, but accidents cannot be ruled out."
Chairman Jiang's face immediately turned dark and he said in a deep voice: "Accident? What kind of accident can happen?"
"This..." Chen Cheng hesitated for a moment, and finally said with a tough bullet. "If the battle situation deteriorates too quickly and the Japanese army is progressing too quickly, it cannot be ruled out that there is no time to send a telegram."
At this time, Bai Chongxi interrupted: "This must be the case."
"Jiansheng, what do you mean?" Chairman Jiang frowned and said, "Are you saying that Kingsoft Guard has been lost?"
"Isn't this obvious?" Bai Chongxi spread his hands and said, "Yesterday, it was really surprising that Wang Zilong's troops were able to defend the Jinshan Guard. I must admit that this kid fought very well! But this is probably inseparable from the Japanese army's carelessness? But today, the Japanese army cannot be careless anymore!"
"Yes." Chen Cheng continued, "Today, the Japanese army could not be careless, but would be more energetic. In this way, the military strength disadvantage of Wang Zilong's troops will be infinitely amplified! No matter what, Wang Zilong's troops have only half a battalion. How can such a few people block the four Japanese divisions?"
"I'm afraid it may not be possible? This is landing on the beach!" Chairman Jiang frowned.
However, Chairman Jiang’s rebuttal voice was much smaller than before.
Obviously, even Chairman Jiang was not optimistic about Wang Zilong, He Ajiu, Zhong Yi and others who could continue to create miracles. No matter what, the Japanese army landed in Jinshanwei had four divisions!
"Go to the beach?" Bai Chongxi said sneered, "So what about landing? How different is it from positional warfare? If I weren't discouraged, Wang Zilong's troops might have already died for their country!"
Chen Cheng echoed: "Brother Jiansheng is right. Landing on the beach is essentially a kind of positional warfare. The only difference is that the attacking side attacks from the water! The difficulty of attacking from the water is greater than that on the land, but considering that the Japanese army has naval and air force to assist in the war, there is no difference in nature, and it is even more beneficial than a simple land warfare."
