December 15, 26 years of the Republic of China.

It was a long day for the officers and men of the Nationalist Army in Nanjing.

It was also a long day for all the students who paid attention to Nanjing.

For Chairman Chiang, who was camping in Wuhan, as well as a senior general of the General Headquarters, as well as senior staff members, this was an incomparably long day.

In the battle hall, Liu Fei was leading the staff officers of the combat group to make a war game deduction.

The subject of deduction is the follow-up trend of the defense of Nanjing, which is being staged.

By five o'clock in the evening, the fourth wargame was over, and the result was still about the same.

Facing Chairman Jiang's expectant eyes, Liu Fei still shook his head firmly, and said in a deep voice: "Commission, judging from the results of the war games, this afternoon, the Japanese army will occupy one-third of the blocks outside the city of Nanjing, and by tomorrow, the Japanese army will be able to occupy two-thirds, and the day after tomorrow, the national army will only be able to retract to a corner of Xinjiekou!" ”

Chairman Jiang said: "In other words, the 100,000 national army can only hold out for three days at most?" ”

"Yes, three days at most!" Liu Fei sighed and said, "It's still a loss because of the lack of effective command, although Zhong Yi simply divided the defense area and issued an order to defend to the death, but after all, this could not link the two hundred battalions, and the various battalions of the national army would inevitably fall into the predicament of fighting their own battles, and they would be easily broken by the Japanese army." ”

Hearing this, Chairman Chiang's face fell again.

On this day, Chairman Chiang's mood was really like a roller coaster, with ups and downs, big ups and downs!

Chairman Chiang was very worried that if this experience came a few more times, he would probably get a heart attack!

At this time, Liu Fei said again: "Actually, the Japanese army has not moved all morning today, if Zhong Yi can seize this opportunity to launch a breakthrough battle, the chance of success is still very big!" ”

Hearing this, Chairman Chiang's face immediately became more and more embarrassed.

Because Liu Fei's words touched the wound in Chairman Jiang's heart!

In fact, Chairman Chiang, more than anyone else, hoped that the more than 100,000 national troops in Nanjing would be able to break through the siege.

These hundreds of thousands of national troops are all the elite of the Central Army, but they are all the family background of Chairman Jiang!

To be honest, this morning, when Chairman Jiang heard that Zhong Yi had taken control of the situation in Nanjing and had de facto taken command of more than 100,000 national troops, he really wanted to forcibly give Zhong Yi an order through military command!

Order Zhong Yi to lead his troops to break through the siege and bring out the hundreds of thousands of elite national troops trapped in Nanjing!

But in the moment before the order was issued, Chairman Jiang hesitated, because he had Tang Shengzhi's experience in the past, and he was not sure whether issuing such an order would make the previous tragedy happen again?

In case Zhong Yi ran away ahead of schedule after receiving the order, would it cause the hundreds of thousands of national troops to collapse again?

If the army's morale collapses again this time, it will really be difficult for the gods to save, because there will not be a second Zhong Yi who will enter Nanjing and fight back in a desperate situation and turn the tide!

Therefore, Chairman Chiang no longer thinks about this matter.

But now, Liu Fei ruthlessly picked up this scar.

At this moment, Chairman Jiang only felt a pang of colic in his heart.

After a pause, Liu Fei said again: "It's a pity, it's a pity that these hundreds of thousands of veterans!" ”

However, as soon as Liu Fei's words fell, Dai Li, director of the Military Command Bureau, hurriedly walked in.

Yes, just this morning, Dai Li has successfully replaced Chen Lifu as the director of the Military Command Bureau.

Liu Fei immediately asked Dai Li: "How is it, Director Dai, is the outer city area lost?" ”

"Team Leader Liu, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you." Because of He Ajiu's relationship, Dai Li had a good impression of Zhong Yi, and he ruthlessly counterattacked back at the moment, and immediately said to Chairman Jiang, "Commission, the military commander Nanjing Station has just sent a secret telegram, and the Japanese army launched a fierce attack from more than a dozen city gates at the same time, and the fierce battle for half a day was not allowed to advance an inch!" ”

After Dai Li's words, there was a moment of silence in the hall.

Two seconds later, the entire hall exploded.

"Blocked? The 367th regiment actually blocked the onslaught of the devils? ”

"Impossible, this impossible! How can it be stopped? ”

"The command system has not been rebuilt, how can it be possible to block such a fierce attack by the devils?"

"How is this battle fought? Could it be that the combat effectiveness of the little devils has decreased? Or, as the legend goes, no matter what kind of soldier he is, as long as he is in Zhong Yi's hands, he will immediately become an elite? ”

", the hundreds of thousands of brothers in Nanjing were originally elites, right?"

Among all the people in the entire hall, the most shocked person at this time was Liu Fei.

Because he was so shocked that the whole person became depressed.

Looking at the simulated sand table, Liu Fei repeated over and over again: "How is it possible? How can it be? How can it be? ”

Not far away, Bai Chongxi threw a compassionate look at Liu Fei, and said in his heart, for Brother Zhang, for Brother Zhang, I told you a long time ago that street battles are different from field battles, and Zhong Yi, this guy, can't be measured by common sense, but you don't listen at all, what is the result? Got a slap in the face, right?

……

Equally unbelievable were Matsui Ishine and a staff officer of the Shanghai Dispatch Command.

"It can't be!" After receiving the battle report, Mamoru Iinuma exclaimed in disbelief, "How come? Five divisions and one detachment launched a fierce attack from more than a dozen directions at the same time, and the fierce fighting lasted for a whole afternoon. ”

"Nani?" Matsui Shigen's small eyes suddenly revealed a terrifying gleam, and he said in a deep voice, "Don't advance an inch!" ”

Tsukada attack, Muto Akira and Changyong and other combat staff officers also looked at each other, and they couldn't even advance an inch after a fierce battle in the afternoon?

"Hello!" Iinuma Mamoru paused heavily, and then said, "Your Excellency, this is a telegram from the 6th Division and other five divisions and the Shigedo Detachment, all five divisions and one detachment, except for the 13th Division, which advanced a hundred meters along the Central Road and gained a firm foothold in the city, the remaining four divisions and one detachment were unable to block the counterattack of the Shina Army in the evening, and they were all driven back to the vicinity of the castle wall!" ”

"Yaga!" When Matsui Ishone heard this, the look in his small eyes became even colder.

At this time, Tsukada Tsukashi said in confusion: "This is impossible, in one morning, Zhong Yi will never rebuild the command system for hundreds of thousands of armies, lack of effective command, an army can exert fifty percent of its combat effectiveness at most, but the imperial army is attacking with all its might, how can it be the result now?" This is completely illogical! ”

Chang Yong also nodded and said, "Yes, this is completely inconsistent with the result of the war game!" ”

Akira Muto said: "Could it be that our parameters are set wrong?" Or which factor was not taken into account? ”

"Impossible!" Chang Yong said categorically, "The parameters are absolutely right, and all the factors have been taken into account!" ”

At this time, Matsui Shigen suddenly said: "No, there is a factor that you have not considered, or rather, you have underestimated the impact of this factor!" ”
