In Nanjing, the Command.

Chairman Chiang is very anxious!

Chairman Chiang asked Gu Zhu, deputy commander-in-chief of the Third Theater of Operations, to make a dozen phone calls to Zhang Fakui, commander-in-chief of the right-wing cluster, asking where the 62nd Division was.

And did Wu Keren's 67th Army start from Qingpu?

But the feedback is not good news.

Gu Zhutong replied in a low voice: "Commission, Zhang Fakui reported that the 367th Regiment has completed the assembly, and it will be able to rush to Jinshan County before dark today to take over the defense!" ”

"Only the 367th regiment?" Chairman Jiang said angrily, "What about the other three regiments of the 62nd Division? ”

Gu Zhutong whispered: "The other three regiments have been dismantled and added to the Ninth Army!" ”

Chairman Chiang immediately remained silent, because the Ninth Army was his descendant of the Central Army, while the 62nd Division was the Hunan Army, and digging into the corners of local armies to supplement the Central Army was Chairman Chiang's regular operation.

Gu Zhutong continued: "As for Wu Keren's 67th Army, it won't be able to start until tomorrow!" ”

"Tomorrow?" Chairman Jiang was furious when he heard this, "Niang Xipi, what are you doing? ”

Gu Zhutong replied in a low voice: "Wu Keren said that the officers and men of the 67th went south from North China, and they urgently needed to rest and recuperate after a long journey......

"It's all this time, and you still need to rest?" Chairman Jiang said angrily, "Tell Wu Keren that it's okay to rest, and it's not too late to rest and recuperate when you get to Songjiang!" ”

Gu Zhutong nodded silently and said no more.

Chairman Jiang turned his attention to Chen Cheng and Bai Chongxi, and asked in a deep voice: "Resignation, Jiansheng, do you think such a deployment can ensure the security of the right wing?" If you can't keep it for a long time, how many days can you hold it out at most? ”

Chairman Chiang's bottom line is to hold the right wing for at least 10 days and ensure that the meeting in Brussels is over! Then it is necessary to leave enough time for the retreat of the main force of the 700,000 national jun on the Songhu front!

Chen Cheng said: "Commission, if the 67th Army can be given three days to rest and build fortifications, it will be more than enough to hold Songjiang for ten days!" But I'm afraid, when the 67th Army arrives in Songjiang, the Japanese army has already reached Songjiang, and this will become an encounter, and the 67th Army is tired from afar, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to hold on for three days! ”

Chen Cheng's judgment is basically reliable.

Because in history, the 67th Army held for exactly three days!

Chairman Jiang asked again: "So, can the 367th Regiment hold out in Jinshan County for three days?" ”

Jinshan County is the barrier of Songjiang, as long as the 367th Regiment can be on the top of Jinshan County for three days, the 67th Army will have enough time to rest and build fortifications!

"It's hard!" Chen Cheng said, "If the 367th Regiment can be given a day to build fortifications, it should not be a problem to hold Jinshan County for three days, the problem is that the 367th Regiment will not be able to reach Jinshan County until dark today at the earliest, and most of the devils have also hit Jinshan County at this time, so I'm afraid there will be no time left for the 367th Regiment to build fortifications!" ”

Bai Chongxi suddenly said: "Unless, Wang Zilong's department can hold out in Jinshanwei until tomorrow night!" ”

Chairman Jiang muttered, "So, Jiansheng, do you think Wang Zilong can hold out until tomorrow night?" ”

Bai Chongxi snorted and said coldly: "Bench, do you want to hear the truth or lies?" ”

"Nonsense!" Chairman Jiang said angrily, "Listen to any lies, of course I have to listen to the truth!" ”

Bai Chongxi nodded and said: "The truth is that it is already a miracle that half of Wang Zilong's battalion can hold Jinshanwei for two hours, and it is simply wishful thinking to expect them to stay until tomorrow night!" If nothing else, at this moment, Jinshanwei has already been lost, and most of the Japanese troops have already landed from Jinshanwei! ”

Chairman Jiang turned his gaze to Chen Cheng, who also smiled bitterly and nodded.

Chairman Jiang's face fell, was there really no hope?

At this moment, Dai Li walked in quickly.

"Good news!" Dai Li didn't sell Guanzi either, and as soon as he came in, he said loudly, "The Jinshan Guard has reported that they have successively thwarted the devil's three waves of beach grabbing, killing more than 2,000 enemies before and after!" Destroy an enemy tank and more than a dozen landing craft! Numerous captures have been made, and as of now, the coastal defense fortifications are still under the control of our army! ”

The figures reported by He Ajiu are basically true!

But after listening to it, Chairman Jiang felt a little confused and couldn't believe it!

Chen Cheng and Bai Chongxi shouted even more: "Impossible, this is impossible!" ”

"Impossible?" Dai Li said coldly, "Are you two saying that I am in a panic to report the military situation?" ”

"Uh, no, that's not what it meant." Chen Cheng said, "I mean, this is too exaggerated! ”

"Too exaggerated? Not an exaggeration at all! Dai Li snorted, and then said to Chairman Jiang, "Commission, Wang Zilongbu not only thwarted the three waves of little devils to land on the beach, but also took the initiative to call and say that they can at least hold out until tomorrow night!" Let the headquarters adjust the defense deployment of Jinshan County and Songjiang based on this situation! ”

"Well done!" At this time, Chairman Chiang finally reacted, clapped his hands and shouted, "Beautiful! ”

After a pause, Chairman Jiang said to Gu Zhutong again: "Mo San, immediately issue a promotion order, promote Wang Zilong to the deputy commander of the 367th Regiment, and still serve as the commander of the 3rd Battalion!" Reward him with another 500 yuan in fiat currency! In addition, one of the officers and soldiers of the 3rd Battalion who stayed behind in Jinshanwei will be rewarded with 50 yuan in legal currency, regardless of military rank! Extra care for the dead! ”

"Yes, let's do it!" Gu Zhutong agreed and left.

Dai Li, however, leaned in front of Chairman Jiang again, lowered his voice and said, "There is still a situation. ”

Chairman Jiang understood, immediately dismissed Chen Cheng and Bai Chongxi, and asked, "What's the situation?" ”

Dai Li whispered: "Commission, according to He Ajiu's report, the reason why the Battle of Jinshanwei was able to be fought like this is not all due to Wang Zilong alone!" ”

"Yunong, aren't you talking nonsense?" Chairman Jiang didn't have a good breath and said, "The battle of Jinshanwei is of course not the credit of Wang Zilong alone, and it is inseparable from the bloody battle of the officers and soldiers left behind in the 3rd Battalion!" ”

"Bench, that's not what the lowly post said." Dai Li shook his head with a wry smile and said, "How can I tell you?" ”

Chairman Jiang immediately heard the problem, and said in a deep voice: "Tell the truth!" ”

"Okay." Dai Li nodded and said, "According to He Ajiu's report, the reason why Wang Zilong's department was able to thwart the devil's beach-grabbing three times in a row and inflict heavy damage on the devil all depends on the command of one person!" ”

Chairman Jiang stared at him and said in a deep voice: "This person is not Wang Zilong? ”

"It's not!" Dai Li said, "It's the captain of the Jinshan Guard Security Team, Zhong Yi!" ”

"What?" Chairman Jiang was dumbfounded, "A security captain? ”

"But he's not an ordinary security captain either." Dai Li said, "After receiving He Ajiu's report, he asked the people at the Shanghai Station to thoroughly investigate the details of this person. ”
