Chairman Jiang looked at the battle report on the front line of Tongcheng, and was discussing with a group of people on the Supreme Military Commission that the situation of the entire Wuhan battle has undergone earth-shaking changes, which made Chairman Jiang very confused. Originally, if the Japanese army had always insisted on Tongcheng as the focus of the offensive, then Chairman Jiang would feel much more at ease. But now the Japanese army has changed the focus of the offensive.

The Japanese army must move the attack, so Xue Yue's army must resist the attack of the Japanese North China Front Army Chairman Jiang really has no confidence. So far, only Wang Mingyu's 318 army can destroy the Japanese army in large quantities during the attack with the Japanese army, and make the Japanese army repeatedly defeated. Other troops are basically passively beaten.

Take the Battle of Xuzhou for example. Although Chairman Jiang repeatedly announced the elimination of tens of thousands of Japanese troops to the public, he actually knew in his heart that this was just a gift on his face. The Battle of Xuzhou could eliminate more than 30,000 Japanese troops. The 318th Army destroyed almost all the Japanese troops from the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War to the present.

Such numbers make Chairman Jiang absolutely dare not offend the 318th Army too much, so even if Hu Zongnan was sent to seize power, it was based on the situation where Wang Mingyu, the head coach of the 318th Army, may die, once Wang Mingyu returns, it will be lost immediately. This is the attitude Chairman Jiang needs to show at present. As long as Wang Mingyu is in the 318th Army for one day, he will not move

It has entered September. After the Japanese attack center shifted, the pressure on the northern line increased sharply. Compared with this, Tongcheng seemed to be unnecessary. Seishiro Itagaki now maintains a good attitude towards Tongcheng's attack. It doesn't matter if he doesn't win. This mentality makes the Japanese army in Tongcheng become like a desireless person.

Wang Mingyu is currently anxious for a group of people in Tongcheng to hold a meeting. What is different from the previous meeting is that this meeting added a person named Hu Zongnan and Hu Zongnan was invited to attend the meeting in Tongcheng just to be a good example. In fact, he now plays more of the role of an invisible person, and he has already gotten what he needs.

When Tongcheng lifted the alarm, Hu Zongnan had already let go of his heart. Now Hu Zongnan also knew that as long as the Wuhan Battle ended, no matter whether it was successful or failed, Hu Zongnan's resume would have a more brilliant result, that is, leading the Tongcheng 318 Army to fight against the Japanese army and kill more than tens of thousands of Japanese troops.

Wang Mingyu glanced at everyone and said: The achievements our army has made in Tongcheng this time are obvious to all. We have successfully dismantled several attacks from the Japanese army and brought an extremely important impact to the Battle of Wuhan. Here, I hope everyone can continue to maintain this mentality. First of all, I would like to thank the friendly forces of the Eighth Route Army.

After saying that, Wang Mingyu took the lead in standing up to salute several regiment commanders and political commissars of the Eighth Route Army, and then said: This time, the Eighth Route Army brothers gave the Japanese army a head-on attack at the cost of half of the casualties in the battle with the Japanese army in the same city. We telegraph the committee to truthfully state the situation and ask for merit for you.

Wang Mingyu's words actually understood the meaning of several political commissaries and regiment leaders of the Eighth Route Army. Wang Mingyu had already been angry with them before and was to solve their organizational problems. As long as the organizational problems of the two regiments were successfully solved, at least the two regiments would not need to allocate funds. The troops with regular numbers are different from those without regular numbers.

Several commanders and political commissars of the Eighth Route Army stood up and greeted Wang Mingyu and others. Huang Tiandi stood up and said: Thank you Commander-in-Chief Wang. Although we have made efforts in Tongcheng this time, we are not very much in our efforts. The most important thing is Commander-in-Chief Wang's 318th Army as the main force to fight the Japanese army.

Wang Mingyu smiled and said: Anyone who participates in the battle is a part of the guardian of our Tongcheng and is a person who contributes to our Tongcheng. We cannot erase it. Commander-in-Chief Hu is not

Hu Zongnan did not expect that Wang Mingyu would ask him at this time, and smiled unnaturally on his face and said: Commander-in-Chief Wang said very well, the Eighth Route Army made great contributions, and this time I looked at him with admiration.

Huang Tiandi and others snorted coldly, obviously disliked the commander-in-chief Hu Wang Mingyu, but said with a smile: Since Commander-in-Chief Hu also thinks this, then let me clarify the Eighth Route Army's achievements this time in the name of Commander-in-Chief Hu, and at the same time apply to the Commission for the establishment of the remaining two regiments of the Eighth Route Army. This is what I promised me before.

Gao Shan immediately took the order and said: Yes, I immediately generated electricity from Wuhan. After saying that, Gao Shantou took the folder and walked out of the door without looking back.

Hu Zongnan is so hatred. If you want to say the right disgust, Hu Zongnan can definitely rank among the top few. Because of Chairman Jiang's disgust, how could he, the most proud disciple, not hate it? When he was the commander-in-chief of the Suppression, he was a killer in all directions. Unexpectedly, he was forced to apply for the Eighth Route Army now. It would be strange if Hu Zongnan was not angry to death.

But Hu Zongnan would never dare to show any face to Wang Mingyu at this time. He understood. The 318th Army is Wang Mingyu. What he said is definitely more effective than the principal's words. If you are arrogant at this time, you will be looking for death. The combat power of this army is really too strong. Even if Hu Zongnan is now the commander-in-chief of other army groups, he will not dare to challenge the situation.

Chairman Jiang must love and hate such a unit. At this time, when such a unit is needed, how could Hu Zongnan offend a person Chairman Jiang wants to win over? What's more, Wang Mingyu is also Chairman Jiang's son-in-law in name? At least it seems that Wang Mingyu and Chairman Jiang are still in a relationship with each other.

Wang Mingyu actually did it intentionally. He understood Chairman Jiang's thoughts best. However, this time Chairman Jiang's actions really made him feel a little disappointed. If he was already dead, Chairman Jiang came to seize power. Wang Mingyu felt that Chairman Jiang was understandable about doing this. But now the news of Wang Mingyu not dead has passed through. Chairman Jiang just hurriedly sent someone over.

The importance of Tongcheng is self-evident. If the soldiers of the army knew at this time, how big the blow to morale was. Although the news was blocked, some soldiers still knew about it. However, Wang Mingyu made a timely comeback, which made everyone shut up their doubts. However, Wang Mingyu also had to thank Chairman Jiang for his cooperation, otherwise the Japanese army would not have been deceived so easily.

Wang Mingyu continued: The current focus of the Japanese army has shifted to the northern line. Once the Japanese army breaks through the northern line, then Wuhan will basically not be able to save it. In other words, the focus of the Wuhan battle has shifted from our Tongcheng to the northern line. The pressure on us on General Xue Yue’s side is basically gone, unless the Japanese army changes their combat plan again.

Wu Peilin on the side said: Chief, the change in the Japanese army's plan is really incredible. Could this be a gesture that the Japanese army wants us to relax our vigilance?

Wang Mingyu shook his head and said: This is impossible. The principle of one move has been declining again and again. Everyone should know that the best time for the Japanese army to take down Tongcheng is past. They can no longer pose any substantial threat to Tongcheng. According to my inference, it should be that the Japanese base camp may have raised questions about their death numbers. They have to change their plans.

Wang Mingchuan said: If the Japanese army breaks through the northern line, then the Japanese army will definitely march straight into Wuhan. Once Wuhan is lost, then the significance of our Tongcheng will be of little significance. Let’s look at the map. If the Japanese army breaks through here and there, then the west gate of our Tongcheng will be in danger. At that time, we may face a dangerous situation of being surrounded by enemies.

Zhang Deen, who was standing by, also said: General Secretary, if the Japanese army breaks through the defense of the northern line, will we start moving towards the Dabie Mountains? If the Japanese army wants to fight with us in the mountains, their tanks and vehicles will not play any role. We can attack and retreat or defend, which is also a good choice.

Wang Mingyu nodded and said: It is true that once the northern line is defeated, our Tongcheng will become precarious. The Japanese army actually initially attacked Tongcheng to destroy our 318th Army. Now they have given up this plan, but fundamentally speaking, they did not give up. They wanted to break through the northern line and then form a siege against our army.

Huang Tiandi smiled and said: The Japanese army is dreaming. Even if they break through the Wuhan defense line, it is impossible for them to encircle the Xicheng Gate. Dabie Mountains Our army has great strength. If they want to pass through our defense zone, they will inevitably pay a heavy price.

Huang Tiandi's confidence comes from their hidden soldiers in the Dabie Mountains, but the Japanese army does not need to get entangled with them at all. They can directly attack Tongcheng from the avenue. In fact, although it is difficult for the Japanese army to wipe out the Eighth Route Army in the Dabie Mountains, it is difficult for the Eighth Route Army to stop tens of thousands of Japanese troops.

Huang Tiandi and his team received support from Wang Mingyu. The weapons and equipment are now very good, but other troops in Dabie Mountains are probably still holding small broken guns that are stronger than fire sticks. How can such strength be compared with the Japanese army? Huang Tiandi's confidence actually comes from another aspect from this battle in Tongcheng.

Wang Mingyu looked at Huang Tiandi and just smiled and nodded, but from the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to hurt Huang Tiandi's self-confidence, but Hu Zongnan, who was beside him, snorted coldly, looking disdainful.

: Today is New Year's Eve, I am so busy today. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. I can't go out to pay New Year's greetings. I'll give you my brothers some consideration. Haha
