Chapter 116: Soldiers approaching the city and calmly
In the office of the Chairman of the Shancheng Committee, Chang Kaishen swept away the sad face for several months, and instead joked with a smile: "The Japanese are really rampant. With the 60,000 and 40,000 puppet troops of the 10th Army whose system has just been restored, he wanted to capture Shangdu. Perhaps he might succeed in facing other Chinese troops, but in the face of silence, it is estimated that it will be difficult to escape unscathed."
Dai Chunfeng smiled and said, "This is thanks to the principal's keen eye. You tried your best to let Brother Moran take over the Tax Police Corps, which made the Japanese lose their power because of the north and south of Yuzhou. It's a pity that there are too few generals like Brother Moran who are both civil and military."
"Hmph! If they had half of the ability of Mu Ran, why would the Party and the country be like this? They only knew to ask me for soldiers and pay for money all day long, but they would only retreat step by step to the Japanese. Unfortunately Mu Ran had to face the threats of the Japanese from Zhonghua and Jiangnan at the same time, otherwise they would not have withdrawn voluntarily after regaining Pengcheng this time."
Chang Kaishen was originally worried that Wu Sairen would not be able to control his size, but the existence of the elite unit of the Tax Police Corps has indeed relieved huge pressure on the Kuomintang army on the front battlefield.
"The eldest son sent a telegram through the Military Commission Yuzhou Station. He wanted you to order some equipment assigned to him by Moran. How do you think about how to recover?"
Dai Chunfeng was very troubled by Master Chang. Although Lu Qiaoshan was transferred back, the prince still did not stop. Not only did he rename the security team he had built to Iron Blood Youth Army, but he also wanted to further intervene in administrative affairs in Yuzhou, especially the latest factories established by Wu Siren.
Chang Kaishen said angrily: "You call him back in my name and tell him to pay attention to his current identity. He is just a major general. He has no moral responsibilities when he controls a division. Don't be foolish anymore. Will the family be willing to make a fuss about rebellion?"
In fact, like his son Nikola Chang, Chang, they are both people with a strong desire for control. The difference is that Chang Kaishen knows how to judge the situation and knows how to make choices.
Chang Kaishen knew that not only could not seize Wu Siren's military power, but he also had to give Wu Siren more trust. Wu Siren is the soul of the Tax Police Corps. Without him, the Tax Police Corps would be dismembered and collapsed. Chang Kaishen understood that before driving the Japanese out of China, the Tax Police Corps would not collapse. Once it collapsed, the entire Jiangbei would lose its barrier and lose its restraint on the Japanese army to the south.
"Principal, the eldest son is now very eager to achieve results as soon as possible. I am worried that his eagerness to achieve will anger Brother Moran."
Dai Chunfeng had something in his words. He felt that although Nicholas Chang had the ability to inherit Chang Kaishen's mantra, he lacked a sense of grandeur and tolerance.
Chang Kaishen thought about it and had a vain case, so he asked Dai Chunfeng: "What is Liu Ziqian from Chuan Kang doing?"
"It is said that a war of resistance and national salvation association is being formed, and General Feng Huanzhang is also invited to participate." Dai Chunfeng said carefully.
Hearing the name of his sworn brother, Chang Kaishen couldn't help frowning, and then said, "You ask the Secretariat to send a telegram to Jianfeng and ask him to take his Iron-blooded Youth Army to southern Sichuan. Don't get involved in Yuzhou!"
Two days before Yanagawa Heisuke led the 10th Army and the puppet army to arrive in Shangdu, Nikola Chang and Chen Ziliang handed over the work and left Yuzhou with 5,000 Iron-blooded Youth Army. Although the prince caused a lot of trouble for Wu Siren during this period, he also did a lot of practical things in local education and water conservancy maintenance in Yuzhou. Before leaving, Wu Siren specially allocated a batch of seized Japanese weapons and equipment to Master Chang.
Before leaving, Master Chang specially looked for Xu Zhongyi. In addition to trying to win over, he also asked about the foreign trade company.
Xu Zhongyi naturally would not abandon the big tree Wu Siren and choose the seedling of Nikola Chang. He politely refused, but he made a move to ensure that the share of the trading company belongs to Mr. Chang will not be short of weight and will be delivered on time every month.
Nicholas Chang left, which made local officials of all sizes in Yuzhou breathe a sigh of relief, and there was no need to worry about taking the team. Anyone with discerning eyes understood that as long as the Japanese were still raging in China, Chang Kaishen would need to rely on Wu Siren to block the iron hoofs of the Japanese army, and his status would not be shaken.
"What a pity! Mr. Chang is a very capable person and is willing to do some practical things for the people. Unfortunately, he was born in that complicated family and had too many constraints."
Looking at the fleet of people passing by, Wu Siren sighed with infinite emotion.
"This is politics. The chairman does not want to break the bottles and jars, so he can only tear down the east wall and repair the west wall. If a government's economic lifeline is controlled by a few people, problems will arise sooner or later, but unfortunately it will hurt the people."
Chen Ziliang was disgusted with many things in the national government, especially hated those greedy comprador merchants.
"Does our emperor be impatient?" Wu Siren teased and continued: "Yanchuan Heisuke, the old devil, led the team here himself. I guess this time he was also avenging his previous shame. The 100,000 troops were in a hurry. Fang Zishan is not relaxed!"
Chen Ziliang looked at Wu Siren with a look of surprise and asked, "Commander, you really only let the Third Regiment fight? This is a bit too sirable!"
"Chief of Staff, you have to believe in Zishan's ability. In terms of attacking, he may not be as brave as Yu'an's bravery, Bo Yu's wisdom, and awesomeness in establishing people, but when it comes to defense operations, you and I may not be as good as you and I."
Wu Siren knew the characteristics of these generals better than those of this era. In the battle of Hengyang in the original time and space, Fang Zishan was able to hold on forty-seven days with the enemy being too small, and severely damaged the Japanese army. Now he has the Third Regiment and the Reserve, with a total force of 120,000 people, and has a geographical advantage. Wu Siren believes that he will not disappoint himself.
Chen Ziliang didn't know why Wu Siren had such great confidence in Fang Zishan, but he still suggested: "Commander, be careful and be more prepared in everything."
Wu Siren was silent for a while before then raised his head and said to Chen Ziliang: "The other important places in Yuzhou also need to be guarded. You should not only care about Shangdu. This way, send the Chu army to Fang Zishan and then let Ma San lead the 500 special team to support it. There should be no problem."
Originally, in history, Yanagawa Heisuke would be transferred back to the local area after the end of the Jinling Defense War, but in this time and space, the Japanese were beaten too badly by Wu Sairen at the city of Jinling, and there was a shortage of soldiers and major generals. Only those who "defeated generals" of Yanagawa Heisuke would continue to lead troops to defend the battlefield in China.
When the 10th Army arrived at the outskirts of Shangdu, Yanagawa Heisuke looked at the deserted village where the house was empty and cursed: "Baga, it's a strong wall and clear field again. Wu Sairen's army is so shameless!"
Staff Officer Tanabe Moriwu said viciously: "General, we must break through Shangdu this time to avenge the 6th Division."
Yanagawa Heisuke waved his hand and said firmly: "This time we will do our best to do everything we can and must not repeat the mistakes of Jinling. We will order all camps to set up camps. We will rest for one night first and start an attack on Shangdu tomorrow morning."
