The great rout of the main forces of the national jun was soon reported to the command of the Shanghai Dispatch Army through aviation scouts.

When Yanagawa Heisuke learned the news, he was following the headquarters of the Tenth Army to move forward in the direction of Kanayama County.

After reading the telegram, Yanagawa Heisuke said: "I was a little surprised that the main force of Shina collapsed so quickly, and I thought that no matter what, I would have to wait for the Sixth Division to capture Qingpu before this situation would occur." ”

"Hello!" Tetsujiro Yamada said, "Look at it now, the Kunisaki detachment is a good move to go out of Jiaxing!" ”

"yes." Yanagawa Heisuke said, "Although the main force of China has completely messed up the system and turned into a group of routs, before the sixth division and the sixteenth division meet, the main force of China must have crossed Kunshan, so it is impossible to encircle and annihilate the main force of China in western Shanghai, and at this time, it is necessary to make a detour to Jiaxing and Suzhou, which are farther away." ”

"Hello!" Tetsujiro Yamada said, "As long as the Kunisaki detachment can capture Jiaxing, and then the 16th Division can capture Suzhou in time, then there is still a chance to encircle and annihilate the main force of China to the east of Taihu Lake." ”

"Yo Xi!" Yanagawa Heisuke nodded happily and said, "Immediately call the Kunisaki detachment and order them to occupy Jiaxing as soon as possible, and then go north to capture Pingwang and Wuxing, and cut off the retreat of the Shina army from the south bank of Taihu Lake!" ”

"Hello!" Tetsujiro Yamada paused, signaling the adjutant to convey the order.

Yanagawa Heisuke was about to say a few more words, when the corner of his eyes inadvertently swept out of the car window, and then the whole person was stunned.

Because at this time, Yanagawa Heisuke's convoy had already come to the outside of Jinshan County, so the old devil saw at a glance the heavy artillery position that had been bombed black on the side of the road.

After looking closely, Yanagawa Heisuke found that there were still dense huge craters on the pitch-black ground, and the diameter of several large craters was even more than fifty meters! This effect is not much different from the shelling of the Navy's 300mm caliber guns!

In addition, at the edge or bottom of these huge craters, there were a large number of gun mounts, or parts of heavy guns, scattered around.

As the vehicle moved forward, Yanagawa Heisuke saw more than one cannon barrel, but all of them were twisted into twists without exception.

Just looking at this scene, Yanagawa Heisuke is extremely sure that the 6th Brigade of Field Heavy Artillery is completely finished!

Thinking of an entire heavy artillery brigade, two heavy artillery wings, and 72 large-caliber field howitzers of 150mm caliber turned into nothing, Yanagawa Heisuke couldn't help but look dark, and almost fainted on the spot.

This is a heavy artillery brigade, this is a whole field heavy artillery brigade!

Zhong Yi! Damn Zhong Yi! This guy's conscience is greatly broken!

Tetsujiro Yamada sighed lightly and said: "Your Excellency, the battle losses of the 6th Brigade of the Heavy Artillery have been counted, 56 of the 72 heavy artillery guns of the two heavy artillery wings have been completely destroyed, 11 have been seriously damaged, and only 5 have been damaged relatively lightly, but they also need to be repaired by domestic parts, and the shells have been lost, and the casualties in terms of personnel are about more than 1,200 people. ”

"Yaga!" Yanagawa Heisuke said, "Doesn't it mean that the 6th Brigade of Heavy Artillery has in fact ceased to exist?" ”

"Hello!" Tetsujiro Yamada replied at once, "As far as equipment is concerned, the Sixth Brigade of Heavy Artillery can indeed be revoked!" ”

"Yaga! Now that this is the case, the 6th Brigade of the Heavy Artillery will no longer have to follow, send them back to Japan! Yanagawa Heisuke's facial muscles twitched violently, and he said, "By the way, did you catch Zhong Yi's troops?" ”

"Nope." Tetsujiro Yamada shook his head and said, "They have already run ahead of schedule." ”

"Yaga, this despicable and cunning fellow!" Yanagawa Heisuke snorted, and then said, "However, don't worry about him for the time being, for now, it is more important to occupy Shanghai and hunt down the main force of China!" On my order, the 6th Division immediately launched an all-out pursuit of the main force of China, and the 18th Division sent an infantry wing to Shanghai! ”

Tetsujiro Yamada suddenly replied, "Haiyi! ”

……

In Nanjing, the national jun command.

By noon, the bad ones were coming back one by one.

"Report, the 15th Army suddenly lost contact!"

"Report, the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps is missing!"

"Report, the whereabouts of General Xue Yue, commander-in-chief of the 19th Group Army, are unknown!"

"Report, the headquarters of the Ninth Army sent the last telegram five minutes ago, saying that the troops in charge of the broken rear were under heavy attack by the Japanese army, and they lost contact!"

One after another, communications staff officers walked into the hall and reported the bad news in a row.

Every time he received a piece of news, the staff officer would take away a corresponding small red flag from the sand table, and in just a moment, the sand table that was originally densely covered with small red flags became sparse.

Chairman Chiang's face also became very embarrassed.

To be honest, Chairman Jiang is now repentant!

I knew that the Nine-Power Convention was so unreliable, and I should have ordered the withdrawal of troops when I learned that the Japanese army had landed in Jinshanwei!

Oh no, as early as the beginning of this month, the main force of the Songhu battlefield should be withdrawn to the Wufu defense line, and then rely on the strong defense line to carry out long-lasting attrition with the Japanese army!

Regret not listening to rhetoric and the advice of Jiansheng!

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in this world!

At this time, Chairman Jiang especially hoped that there would be some good news, so that he could save some face!

Otherwise, the blow to his personal prestige in this battle of Songhu would be too big and too fatal!

Chairman Chiang immediately perked himself up and turned his hopeful eyes to the incoming communications staff, but to his great dismay, all the bad news came in.

Then, just when Chairman Jiang was about to despair, a familiar figure suddenly hurried in, and looked at it urgently, but it was Dai Li, the director of operations of the Fuxing Society.

Dai Li's eyebrows could not hide his joy.

Chairman Jiang asked anxiously: "Yunong, is there good news?" ”

Dai Li nodded and said, "Commission, the 367th Regiment has won the battle again?" ”

"Really?" Chairman Jiang hurriedly said, "The 367th Regiment has won the battle again?" ”

"Yes!" Dai Li replied excitedly, "I just received a telegram from He Ajiu's Einsatzgruppen that they attacked the Japanese heavy artillery position outside Jinshan County at dawn today, and eliminated a Japanese heavy artillery brigade!" ”

"What's the situation? Got rid of a heavy artillery brigade of the Japanese army? ”

"Oh my God, a brigade? Or a heavy artillery brigade? ”

"Oh my God, how did the 367th Regiment fight this battle?"

"Is this possible? It's incredible! ”

As soon as Dai Li finished speaking, the entire battle hall exploded.

But this time, Chen Cheng, Bai Chongxi, He Yingqin and several other senior officials did not express their opinions easily, nothing else, they really made Zhong Yi slap his face and scared.
