"But, Your Majesty." Tada Jun said worriedly, "Truthfully broadcasting the heavy losses on the Nanjing battlefield to the front-line soldiers and the people of the entire empire will not shake the morale of the soldiers on the Nanjing front?" And will the faith of hundreds of millions of people throughout the empire be shaken by this? ”

"No, it won't." Hirohito waved his hand and said firmly, "The people of the empire will not be easily intimidated, and the morale of the soldiers of the imperial army on the front line will not be shaken because of this!" ”

Tada Jun rarely insisted: "Your Majesty, the minister always feels that this move is inappropriate. ”

Hirohito patiently explained: "Tada, you always know the spring, right? ”

"Hello!" Tada Jun paused heavily and said, "Of course the minister knows the spring. ”

"Yo Xi!" Hirohito nodded happily and said, "For example, the imperial army on the Nanjing battlefield is like a spring, every time the imperial army loses a soldier and a piece of equipment in Nanjing, it is like exerting a pressure on the spring, and over time, when this spring is compressed to the extreme, it will inevitably rebound!" ”

"Moreover, the greater the pressure exerted, the greater the force of the rebound!"

"Therefore, unless the Chinese army can completely defeat the imperial army on the Nanjing battlefield, otherwise, the longer it drags on, the greater the losses suffered by the imperial army, and when it rebounds in the future, the more fierce the imperial army's counterattack will be, and the blow to the confidence of the Chinese army and the people of China will be more deadly! Maybe the Chinese nation will be devastated because of this! ”

"Your Majesty, the minister seems to understand." Tada Jun nodded, and said, "The longer Zhong Yi and the 367th Regiment persist on the battlefield in Nanjing, the greater the damage caused to the imperial army, the more they will be supported and loved by the people of China, and over time, they may become the god of war in the hearts of the people of China!" Then, when Zhong Yi and his 367th Regiment finally collapsed under the city of Nanjing, the faith of the people of China collapsed! ”

"Soga!" Hirohito happily said, "At that time, the faith of the people of Shina will completely collapse, and surrender will be a natural result!" In turn, the belief of the people of the empire will become stronger, because the previous heavy losses have not been able to scare them, so what else in this world can scare them? ”

"Hello!" Tada Jun suddenly said, "Your Majesty, this subordinate completely understands!" ”

"Yo Xi!" Hirohito nodded happily and said, "Then, Tada-kun, I would like you to go to the NHK headquarters and convey my meaning to Eguchi-kun and Terashima-kun." ”

"Hello!" Tada Jun paused.

……

In Wuhan, the camp combat hall.

On the radio, Xiao Bing is still broadcasting the results of the 367th Regiment this time.

But the senior generals and senior staff in the hall didn't have the heart to listen anymore.

Because after hearing the explosive news of "killing more than 19,700 devils", the excitement of all the high-ranking generals and high-ranking staff has not yet passed.

Even Chairman Jiang was so excited that he was a little incoherent.

"This Zhong Yi!" Because he was so excited, Chairman Jiang couldn't find a better adjective to describe Zhong Yi, so he could only say over and over again, "This Zhong Yi, this Zhong Yi, this Zhong Yi!" ”

It is no wonder that Chairman Chiang was so excited, because this was definitely the most important victory won by the Nationalist army since the full-scale outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War!

Before that, don't say that one guy annihilated four infantry wings of the Japanese army plus two and a half artillery wings, that is, he annihilated not a single formed infantry brigade of the Japanese army!

Zhong Yi's 367th Regiment had indeed annihilated many devils in Jinshanwei, Jinshan County, and even Xitang Town, all of which added up to at least 10,000 people, but there was only one brigade of devils annihilated by the formation, and it was also a heavy team!

But now, the 367 regiment has annihilated four infantry wings plus two and a half artillery wings in one piece, oh my!

Because he was so excited, Chairman Chiang automatically ignored the fact that the 367th Regiment had more than 100,000 Nationalist troops to help in the battle last night.

After a long time, Chairman Jiang finally calmed down slowly, and while continuing to listen to Xiao Bing's broadcast of the results, he said to Bai Chongxi and Liu Fei: "Jiansheng, for Zhang, you analyze the next situation in Nanjing. ”

Originally, Chairman Chiang had already despaired of Zhong Yi and the 367th Regiment, and had also despaired of the hundreds of thousands of Nationalist troops hiding in the safety zone, but now, with the sudden awakening of more than 100,000 defeated soldiers, and with the 367th Regiment annihilating the four Japanese infantry wings and two and a half artillery wings in Nanjing, Chairman Chiang suddenly had infinite hope in his heart.

Perhaps, there will really be a turning point in the Battle of Nanjing?

Zhong Yi only has one 367 regiment in his hands, and he can carry the two wings of devils in Xinjiekou for two days and nights.

Now, Zhong Yi has an army of more than 100,000 in his hands, how lethal will it be? Is it possible to wipe out several divisions outside Nanjing? Isn't it possible, can you take advantage of the victory to return to Shanghai?

Unstoppablely, Chairman Chiang had infinite hope in his heart.

Chairman Jiang looked at Bai Chongxi and Liu Fei expectantly, waiting for this military strategist, who was recognized by the Japanese and a half, to give him an analysis of the situation in Nanjing next.

However, Bai Chongxi and Liu Fei were not Chairman Jiang, and they remained calm enough from beginning to end.

Because of their calmness, Bai Chongxi and Liu Fei could see that the situation in the defense of Nanjing, in fact, did not have a fundamental reversal, last night, although the Japanese army lost four infantry wings plus two and a half artillery wings, but compared with the national army, it still occupies an absolute advantage in strength and weapons.

However, Bai Chongxi did not express an opinion.

Liu Fei couldn't hold back, shook his head and said: "Commission, if you think that the 367th Regiment will be able to launch a counterattack and hit the main force of the Japanese army outside Nanjing in one fell swoop, then I'm afraid you will be disappointed, such a thing is impossible to happen, the 367th Regiment is not to mention counterattacking, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to even hold Nanjing City." ”

"Can't you?" Chairman Jiang couldn't help but retort, "When Zhong Yi only had one 367 regiment in his hands, he could fight hard with the two infantry wings of the Japanese army in Xinjiekou for two days and nights, and now he has an army of more than 100,000 under his command, can he still deal with the three or five divisions outside Nanjing?" ”

Liu Fei continued to shake his head, and said: "Commissioning, commanding a regiment, and commanding an army of more than 100,000 are two completely different concepts, Zhong Yi can command a regiment, it does not mean that he can command an army of more than 100,000, an army of more than 100,000, this is equivalent to more than a dozen divisions, nearly 50 regiments!" ”

After a pause, Liu Fei said again: "Actually, even if Zhong Yi has the ability to command an army of more than 100,000 people, it does not mean that he can command the hundreds of thousands of defeated troops in Nanjing, because these hundreds of thousands of defeated troops have completely lost their structure, and without the structure, that is, they have lost their command system, no matter how powerful Zhong Yi is, what can he do?" ”
