Looking at the several Japanese officers who were escorted out, the foreign consuls who were staying in the guard area of ​​the Consulate Street were happy to see the Italian consuls who were sucking in front of the Eighth Route Army. It was always annoying for those who broke the agreement.

Since they reached a neutral agreement before the war, it is naturally disgusting that the Italian consul resolutely undermined the neutral agreement reached before the war and protected these defeated Japanese officers.

Now the commander of the Eighth Route Army is forced to hand over the people. This makes these consulates and military officers in the consular district still feel that the Italian consuls are asking for trouble, and now they are also asking for embarrassment.

Several Ribo officers who were escorted seemed a little depressed and embarrassed. On the other hand, Commander Du, who came to negotiate, waved his hand to command the soldiers around him to escort the Japanese officers over and check whether they were carrying weapons.

After the inspection was correct, Commander Du still said sincerely: "Consul Allo, thank you for your cooperation. I believe that your behavior can prove that you have no malicious intentions towards our army and have the right to stay here.

Dear consuls and military officers, given that the situation in the city has not stabilized yet, I hope you can stay here as much as possible and not walk around. If you need to go out, we will not be responsible for any safety issues.

As for the next management affairs of Peking, please wait for news. When the Beijing governor appointed by our party takes office, I believe he will invite you to discuss matters about Peking together.

During this period, if you need to negotiate with our army, you can also contact the checkpoint in front at any time. To avoid impacting your residence, I will arrange a checkpoint not far away, so please understand!"

Considering that the US consul has the best relationship with the Eighth Route Army, the US consul also said on behalf of everyone at the right time: "Okay, thank you for your reminder. If we need it, we will send someone to contact you."

‘Okay, then I won’t bother you! The battle in the city is not over yet, and I still need to go to the city to command the final clearance. Considering that the current situation is not clear, I am afraid that the city of Beiping still needs to temporarily implement military control. Please understand!’

After leaving this sentence, Commander Du escorted several dejected Japanese officers and left in front of these foreign consuls and soldiers with different expressions. Looking at the group leaving, many soldiers were very surprised.

‘Tom, is this the regular army of China? It seems that they are very elite?’

‘It should be! However, it seems that the one who leads them is not the ruling party in China at this moment. Fortunately, everything seems much calmer now, and we finally don’t have to worry about the battle.

The eyes of the soldiers just now were very terrifying. If I hadn't made a mistake, these were all elite soldiers. It's really hard to believe that there were such well-equipped and powerful troops in this country!’

From the comments of these soldiers, it is not difficult to hear that the appearance of the Second Reconnaissance Regiment has indeed put a lot of pressure on them. As the troops protecting the consulate, they actually do not want to participate in the battle. Because in that case, casualties will occur!

Commander Du, who left Consular Street, came directly to the joint command center that was temporarily relocated to the city. The other three commanders were all waiting here. After listening to Commander Du's story, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Speaking of which, even if they know the party’s policies and the discipline of the army, they are indeed not good at dealing with foreigners. Now that Captain Du’s perfect solution to this matter has indeed made them much easier.

After all, dealing with foreigners is indeed a headache for officers like them!

‘Tell the previous matters to the headquarters and commander in the form of a telegram. Please also ask for instructions on the next action!’

When the Joint Command sent the telegram to General Zhu of Xibaipo and He Zhengdao, He Zhengdao was also very pleased that his education of his officers had some effect.

Speaking of which, the Chinese people in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China all had a certain sense of fear of foreigners. Even though the Eighth Route Army had little favor to foreigners, they knew that at this time, they could not get too evil with foreigners.

At least from this stage, Yan'an and the Eighth Route Army have the same opinions. That is, if you do not participate in matters on the European battlefield, you will adopt the same neutral policy as the United States.

If you really want to join Germany or the Allies, then there may be some benefits for China, but there are also disadvantages. In order to avoid such a thing, Yan'an naturally does not want to cause more trouble.

Everyone knows that the most important thing for China at the moment is to win this War of Resistance Against Japan. Only by completely driving the Japanese out of the country can China embark on the bright road of independence, self-improvement, and liberation of the whole nation.

He Zhengdao, who received the telegram, did not interfere too much in this kind of thing. In the call to Commander Du, he asked him to obey the instructions of the headquarters. Now he is more focused on the frontline war.

When the Eighth Route Army successfully attacked Beiping City and had basically completed the full recovery operation, the direct column headed by the Special Forces Division also advanced from Fuxin and pushed its offensive formation to the vicinity of Fengtian City.

Even if you haven't reached the foot of Fengtian City yet, judging from the current progress of the war, it's only a matter of time. At least at this stage, the Japanese and puppet troops stationed in Fengtian are already on high alert and are always on guard against the attack of the Eighth Route Army.

The Second Division of the Kwantung Army, which retreated from Jinzhou, was also ordered by Meijiro to retreat to Fengtian. The division commander Shinichi Yoshimoto also served as Fengtian's defense officer and was fully responsible for Fengtian's defense war.

But what puzzled the Japanese army was that the third column of Dongye that broke through to the Jinzhou area did not cooperate with the direct column to encircle Fengtian. The three main divisions under his command began to launch a horizontal attack and pushed the troops to Panjin and other places.

Such an attack direction made Mei Jiro somewhat puzzled. While seizing the time to send additional reinforcements to Fengtian, he also ordered other troops in Fengtian to block the attack of the Eighth Route Army with all his strength.

At the same time, the First Column of the East Field Army stationed in Tongliao area, while defending against the attack of the 7th Division of the Kwantung Army, also began to draw the main force to launch an attack on the Siping area of ​​Nandamen, Jilin Province.

As soon as this battle began, Mei Jiro Mejiro also truly realized that what the Kanto Army had to do at this moment was no longer the so-called counterattack. On the contrary, he needed to concentrate all his efforts to curb the strong breakthrough of the Eighth Route Army.

‘Baga! Order the garrisons from Fengtian and Jizhou Province to draw the main forces to the front line and make every effort to block the attack of the Eighth Route Army. At the same time, order the Seventh Division to stop the attack on the Eighth Route Army and maintain pressure on the Eighth Route Army.

The armored troops that cooperated with the 7th Division were transferred to Baicheng area to standby. In addition, the troops deployed in the border area will be dispatched to return to defense. The border has been closed, and I think the Soviet Far East Army will not attack at this time!’

As the front army with the most military forces and the strongest strength in the Japanese Army, the Kwantung Army is naturally not weak, but a large part of the elite troops under its jurisdiction are arranged to defend against the Soviet Union in the border areas.

At present, they had reached a ceasefire agreement with the Soviet Union, and appropriately withdrawing some troops back to defend the city to block the Eighth Route Army, which did not matter to Mei Jiro. In short, this time the Kwantung Army also truly recognized the strength of the Eighth Route Army.

On the other hand, He Zhengdao, who was behind, looked at the map spread on the table and said cautiously: "Send a report to Li Xiangdong, so that he should not rush to break through. Once the troops advance into Fengtian territory, they must control the speed of attack.

At the same time, the armored brigade and heavy artillery brigade must be prepared for air defense. Zheng Shaoyu will draw several fighter jets from the third brigade into Fengtian for reconnaissance, but be careful of the Japanese aircraft.

In addition, we send a telegram to the political commissar, and we will give priority to the third brigade for the aviation fuel stored in the rear. All air defense forces in the defense zone should also be vigilant and don’t be careless. The Kwantung Army’s air force is also very strong!”

‘Okay! I'll send the telegram now!’

When He Zhengdao was cautious in dealing with the war situation in the Northeast, General Zhu also sent a telegram to Yan'an. Now that Peiping City has been successfully liberated, Yan'an also needs to make a decision on how to take over it.

Given that the Japanese army on Tianji's side still had heavy troops, the future situation in Peiping would not be peaceful. In this case, it is probably inevitable that Peiping will temporarily implement military control.

However, how to control Peking is also something that Yan'an needs to consider carefully. At present, the highest-level cavalry brigade commander in Beiping City is undoubtedly unable to take on the heavy responsibility.

Therefore, Yan'an also needs to come up with an opinion on who will be the head of military control in Peking. And General Zhu's suggestion is to choose one of General He and General Liu.

Both of them have enough qualifications in the army and the party, and serve as the head of military control in Peking, both internally and externally. As for government affairs, they only need to grasp one general direction.

After some discussion, the head of state in Yan'an quickly sent an appointment in the name of the Central Committee. That is, General Liu, the former 129th Division, was temporarily appointed as the head of military control in Peking and responsible for the war command around Peking.

As for the troops commanded by the 35th Army and Chief He, after completing the clearance of the remaining enemies in the territory, they will temporarily stay in their respective defense areas and standby. Yan'an is also considering whether to attack Tianji in the next step.

After receiving a telegram from Yan'an, President Liu also seemed a little surprised: "What does the head of state and the boss mean? Let me be the head of military control?"

‘Yes, this is what the telegram sent. Speaking of which, now you and Mr. He are only at the same time. If you change to other people, I’m afraid there is still some lack of qualifications.

Unlike other places, there are many foreign consulates there. Speaking of which, this is also the window for our Eighth Route Army to face the outside. Therefore, we are afraid that we will inevitably deal with foreigners in the future. President He is afraid that this will be difficult!’

After the order was issued, even though Mr. Liu felt a little puzzled, he didn't say much. After taking the guards, he began to march to Beiping City. When he entered the city, he officially announced that Peking had been recovered!
Chapter completed!
