Chapter 91: Wuhan's Gaze
6.91 Wuhan's gaze
The information in Matsui Shigen's hand is from the Pukou traitors that Wang Huanzhi is most worried about, not long after Nanjing's river crossing operation began, several traitors in Pukou got the news, Huang Haoran in order to worry about leaking the news, let the garrison of Pukou conduct a large-scale search of Pukou, the military police all over the street made a few traitors dare not use the radio hidden in the cellar, they ran to Wujiang overnight to find their upline.

The encrypted code was sent to the Japanese intelligence agency in Shanghai at five o'clock in the morning, and if Matsui Ishine could get this information at this time, it would be a disaster for the Nanjing garrison! Fortunately, for unknown reasons, this information was delayed in the transmission, and it was not until Huang Haoran's troops retreated half an hour before it was sent from Shanghai and handed over to Matsui Shigen.
Realizing that he had lost the opportunity to deal a fatal blow to the Nanjing garrison, Matsui Ishine was so annoyed that he threw three or four teacups in a row, and then roared to send several leaders in charge of intelligence in Shanghai to the military court, and the chief of staff, Major General Tsukada Tsukasa, also shook his head regretfully.
Is it the gods of the Chinese who are blessing Huang Haoran? In the battle with the Japanese army, luck always seems to be on Huang Haoran's side.
After adjusting his mood, Matsui Shigen played three cards in a row, increasing troops in Gaoloumen and Tangjiaying, bombing the Yangtze River in the Nanjing section, and the 101st Division went straight to Wuhu.
The chief of staff, Major General Tsukada Tsuka, knew that Matsui Shigen was ruthless, and taking Wuhu was to cut off Huang Haoran's retreat, and bombing the Yangtze River to leave civilians in Nanjing City, the Nanjing garrison must allocate some energy to take care of the civilians, and the Central China Front also retained the capital used to threaten Huang Haoran, as for the increase in troops at Gaoloumen and Tangjia Camp, this is to show that Matsui Shigen set the breakthrough point for attacking Nanjing City at Guanghuamen!
The distance between Gaoloumen and Tangjiaying and Guanghuamen is only two kilometers, the Central China Front can also pile up people under the Ming city wall, as long as the city is broken, the Chinese army that has been very strong so far will definitely fall into chaos, which has been verified in the Songhu battlefield, the Central Army can still do heroic combat at the beginning, but after the retreat begins, many elite divisions in the eyes of the Japanese army are embarrassed on the way to escape.
Caught in a desperate situation, the Nanjing garrison without a way out of retreat could not have the courage to fight in the streets, they would definitely surrender, Nanjing, is the place where Huang Haoran was buried!
Gu Shoufu's 6th Division Division was the fastest among several divisions of the Japanese army, and when the 139th Division and the teaching corps began to retreat, Gu Shoufu felt that something was wrong, and the chief of staff, Shimono Ichihuo Dazuo, was left at the headquarters of the 6th Division, Gu Shoufu personally went to the wing headquarters of the first line, and ordered all wings to pursue the retreating Nanjing garrison, and the Niushou Mountain Mountain, which was difficult to take in a short period of time, was quickly bypassed by Gu Shoufu, and his troops pointed directly at the riverside passage of the Nanjing garrison!
Qiu Qingquan and Wang Shankui, who were retreating, had to leave a number of small troops at some bridge passes to cause chaos for Gu Shoufu, but their small tricks were all seen through by Gu Shoufu, and the 6th Division also left some small troops to deal with the small troops of the Nanjing Garrison, and Gu Shoufu's main force always bit behind Wang Shankui and Qiu Qingquan.
After Matsui Shigen successively sent 3 infantry wings and 1 artillery wing to Tangjiaying and Gaoloumen, the battle line changed in favor of the Japanese army, Huang Haoran saw that the positions of the 36th Division and the independent 47th Brigade were shaken, so he put He Daru's special service regiment into the Tangjia Camp and Gaoloumen line, He Daru's regiment was actually the size of a division, and the timely participation of this group of new troops could stabilize the battle line, and there was no more troops that could be mobilized in Nanjing City except for a few military police regiments, of course, except for the 87th Division on Zhongshan......
*************************************************
Lushan, it has been 13 days since the supreme authorities left Nanjing, and they have received the latest battle report on the Nanjing battlefield, and to be honest, the supreme authorities did not expect that the city of Nanjing has not been lost to this day, if they had known that Huang Haoran would have been able to fight to such an extent, the supreme authorities could have stayed in Nanjing for a few more days.
Jiang Baili has been running to the residence of the highest authority in the past few days, and Jiang Baili said a different voice in the praise of Huang Haoran in the government, the Nanjing garrison and the Japanese army have been fighting for nearly a month, the losses of the troops are huge, and the materials are increasingly lacking, Huang Haoran is already struggling to support!
Although Jiang Baili's words are a bit striking, they are the truth, and the highest authorities also cherish Huang Haoran's talent, but the situation in Nanjing has indeed not reached the worst point, and it is absolutely impossible for the highest authorities to order the abandonment of Nanjing now!
Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if the highest authorities agree, the big people in the government will definitely not agree! Minister He and Chairman Wang don't know what's going on these days, and they began to praise Huang Haoran vigorously, and some of the characters in Wang Zhaoming's family actually proposed to let Huang Haoran persist in Nanjing until after the Spring Festival in 1938, and also asked the highest authorities to award Huang Haoran the rank of general. Stay until the Spring Festival of 1938? At that time, even if Huang Haoran is really given the rank of general, I am afraid that the word "posthumously" will be added in front! This Chairman Wang is intent on killing Huang Haoran!
Jiang Baili has been having nightmares this morning, Huang Haoran's appearance in the dream is clear and blurry, after waking up, Jiang Baili rushed to meet the highest authorities, Jiang Baili knew that every day the battle report in Nanjing, the highest authorities asked to see it as soon as possible, rather than go to the General Staff Headquarters to wait, it is better to go to the Lushan villa of the highest authority, and by the way, he can also say some good things to his little brother Huang Haoran.
When Jiang Baili walked to the lawn where the highest authorities had breakfast, Qian Dajun had just handed over the battle reports of the Nanjing battlefield and the North China battlefield to the supreme authorities, looking at the familiar blue cover, Jiang Baili wanted to know how Huang Haoran's battle was fought in the 24 hours yesterday.
"Madame" walked out of the villa with a plate of pastries, she bypassed behind the supreme authority, put the plate on the dining table, and then walked to the opposite of the supreme authority and sat down, Jiang Baili noticed that "Madame" was in a good mood today, probably related to the batch of "Soviet aid" received yesterday, China finally received a blood transfusion from the international community, and the good mood of the supreme authority must have been transmitted to Madame.
In the end, it was Qian Dajun who saw Jiang Baili, Qian Dajun smiled and said a few words to the highest authority, after listening to Qian Dajun's words, the highest authority looked in the direction of Jiang Baili standing, and "Madam" got up and left the table with a smile.
Qian Dajun invited Jiang Baili over, Jiang Baili saw that there were only two chairs, so he sat directly in the position where his wife was sitting just now, and the highest authority smiled and did not speak.
"It's time for Advisor Jiang to come! I mentioned you just now! ”
Qian Dajun interjected in a rare way today, and it seems that everyone can see that the highest authorities are in a good mood today.
"Oh! That's a coincidence, I also want to see the commission early in the morning today, so I didn't have breakfast and came over! ”
Jiang Baili's answer made the highest authorities happy, could this Jiang Baili come to the door to eat, the highest authorities picked up two war reports and then looked down, and said:
"Mr. Baili doesn't have to be polite, since you haven't eaten breakfast, let's use some by the way, you can't let the generals of the government work hungry, right? Feel free to ...... yourself"
Jiang Baili took a piece of the dim sum that the "Madame" had just brought over and took a bite, and he patronized the supreme authorities who were paying attention to the war report, but he didn't taste it in his mouth.
"It's the same old again! Hit the Japanese army hard and take the initiative to retreat! Can Han Fuyu think of something fresh? If the Japanese army was heavily damaged, why did they take the initiative to retreat? To retreat is to retreat! In other words, it doesn't sound good!! The Military Commission ordered the Fifth War Zone to defend the Yellow River and block the Japanese army from moving south, and he had to withdraw again after only a few days of fighting! If he loses Shandong, he Han Fuyu will not be able to escape the blame! ”
Jiang Baili guessed from the words of the highest authority that the war situation in the Fifth War Zone in Shandong must be very unsatisfactory, and Han Fuyu was indeed a straw bale, In November, under the pressure of the national anti-Japanese public opinion, Han Fuyu personally led his most elite pistol brigade and special team to meet the Japanese army in Jiyang, and even Han Fuyu almost became a prisoner of the Japanese army. After this battle, Han Fuyu lost his confidence in resisting Japan. He was afraid that his little family foundation would be exhausted, and he would not be able to be the "soil emperor" anywhere in the future, so he has been passively resisting the war since this battle.
Later, Han Fuyu also contacted Liu Xiang in Sichuan, preparing to pull the troops to Sichuan, and the two joined forces to refuse the Central Army to enter Sichuan. When the highest authorities learned of this, they immediately put Han Fuyu on the "blacklist".
The supreme authorities now put the responsibility for the erosion of the war situation in Shandong on Han Fuyu's head at once, and Jiang Baili couldn't help but wonder if the supreme authorities wanted to take the opportunity to attack Han Fuyu?
"The Japanese army faced by the Fifth Theater is indeed stronger, and Chief Li is a new officer, and he will not be able to command Han Fuyu for a while and a half, and the situation will inevitably be ugly. Don't worry too much, Han Fuyu has nearly 100,000 horses in Shandong, and he can still resist for a while......"
Jiang Baili saw that the face of the supreme authorities was getting worse and worse, and he was worried that such emotions would affect the next conversation about the Nanjing battle situation, so Jiang Baili hurriedly spoke out to relieve the supreme authorities.
"Five-war zone difficult? No matter how difficult it is, can it be compared to Huang Youchen? The lonely city of Nanjing, the Jedi of soldiers! A division of more than 100,000 remnants against 200,000 tigers and wolves of the Japanese! If I change Han Fuyu, I'm afraid that if I leave his front foot and lose Nanjing on my back foot! He Han Fuyu is so good that the Yellow River is in danger! There is also the fortified city of Jinan! I don't think ten Han Fuyu can compare to one Huang Youchen! Now only the news of diplomacy and Nanjing can make me happy... Others, don't mention ......"
The voice of the highest authorities can only be confided to close ministers like Jiang Baili and Qian Dajun, and after more than five months of fighting in the Anti-Japanese War, there are indeed too few things that can make the highest authorities happy! This is an important reason why the highest authorities value Huang Haoran so much.
Who doesn't love a general who can win battles?
The diplomatic news mentioned by the highest authorities refers to the arrival of the new Soviet ambassador to China in Hankou on 15 October, after Olesky took office, the Soviet Union's assistance to China began to further increase, China's contract to the Soviet Union for the purchase of Soviet arms has not even been formally signed, Soviet-made fighter planes have been flying in the Chinese sky, since October 31, 1937, China has received arms support from the Soviet Union, and the aircraft and artillery from the red countries are an important weight for the Central Army to persist in the War of Resistance.
"The Soviets are still reputable, much better than the British and Americans in Shanghai, I heard that the Soviets are going to send a group of advisers, I don't know if this matter is entrusted ......to you."
Jiang Baili knew that the supreme authorities had only quickened the pace of seeking aid from the Soviet Union in view of the very cold stance and attitude of the European and American powers towards China's demand for aid to China and the resistance against Japan, and because of the rapidly deteriorating situation in the Far East, the Nanjing government had quickened the pace of seeking Soviet aid, and that the supreme authorities only wanted the planes and artillery of the Soviets, but they were very rejecting the Soviet ideology, and that the materials for aiding China were received as soon as they were received, and that it was the Central Army that used them after all, and that the problem of the Soviet advisers could be big or small, and that the supreme authorities were a complete "anti-Soviet faction" before the War of Resistance Against Japan. The group of Soviet advisers during the Northern Expedition was the highest authority who single-handedly pushed China out.
The attitude of the highest authorities towards the Soviet advisers was beyond Jiang Baili's expectations, and the old man said it lightly:
"The materials have been collected, and it is not good to categorically refuse what others want to tie in, Lao Maozi also has some military talents, haven't we also seen it during the Northern Expedition? Come on, as long as you stay away from them and deal with them carefully, I don't think there will be any big problems, the German advisers in the government are no longer on the council, so let the Soviets come to help us compare, Baili, don't think that the Soviet Union is a good person, they help us so that we can help them block the Japanese, the relationship between the country and the country is very complicated and ......"
"That's what the commission said! Huang Youchen also told me that there will always be only interests between countries and countries, and there are no friends, now that I think about it, this is really the case, the Germans and we have cooperated for many years, and now because of a Japan, it is said that the gang will be dismantled, which is really a turn of face and does not recognize people! ”
After listening to the words of the highest authorities, Jiang Baili couldn't help but think of the topics he had talked about when he chatted with Huang Haoran before, and the Soviet Union and the German advisory group that had been closed to Wuhan in a hurry, Jiang Baili's heart was very full of feelings!
"Huang Youchen is knowledgeable, if there are a few more talents like him in the government, why should I hand over Shandong to Han Fuyu!?"
The highest authorities praised Huang Haoran, and then pointed the finger at Han Fuyu, Jiang Baili became more and more sure that the old man was now very dissatisfied with Han Fuyu, in order to turn the topic back to Huang Haoran, Jiang Baili did not continue to follow up the topic of the Shandong battlefield, and began to switch to the Nanjing battlefield.
"The war situation in Shandong has not shown signs of improving, Huang Haoran's pressure in Nanjing will become more and more intense, the little devil has set up a pseudo 'Shanxi Provincial Autonomous Government' in Taiyuan, and on the 14th, the 'Provisional Government of the Republic of China' was established in Beiping, and the Japanese have made it clear that they want to marginalize the central government! This hand is actually aimed at you! ”
The highest authorities snorted coldly! The most intolerable thing for him now is the attitude of the Japanese towards him! As the leader of China, how can the Konoe cabinet brazenly prop up a puppet regime to compete with his supreme authorities for reunification?
"That provisional government can't do it for the time being! The Japanese are blind, Wang Kemin, Tang Erhe, Wang Yitang, Dong Kang, Jiang Chaozong, Gao Lingwei, Qi Xieyuan, Zhu Shen...... Which of these people is a character who is put on the stage? Nanjing has not yet fallen, and the little devil is in a hurry to set up a new emperor, I think the most is to make a new Yuan Shikai come out, a farce!! ”
Although his words were generous and his attitude was extremely contemptuous of the Japanese, Jiang Baili saw the surging anger under the calm face of the highest authority! The pleasure of the great hot hand of the Soviets brought to the highest authorities has now completely disappeared.
Qian Dajun also regained his serious expression and stood quietly behind the highest authority.
"Nanjing.... I don't know how Huang Youchen's battle was fought yesterday, don't look at the battle situation in Shandong, Director Qian, which is the battle report in Nanjing? ”
Qian Dajun quickly found Huang Haoran's battle report from a pile of folders on the dining table, in fact, he had already handed it to the highest authorities just now, but the report of the five war zones was placed in front, and the angry top authorities threw several folders on the table together.
"Japan has increased the number of troops in Matsui again! Huang Haoran's Nanjing garrison has hardly received any replenishment since the war, fighting one less one, a few days ago Huang Haoran sent artillery out of Nanjing City, which shows that his Nanjing garrison is already at the end of the captivity, and yesterday's battle report is afraid to sweep away your interest......"
Jiang Baili saw that the supreme authorities had picked up Huang Haoran's war report, and immediately began to give the supreme authorities a vaccination, and now the supreme authorities are not in a good mood, if something really goes wrong on the Nanjing battlefield and makes the supreme authorities angry, it will be tantamount to harming Huang Haoran.
"Oh......? Baili, this time you, a great military strategist, have made a mistake. Huang Youchen launched a full-scale counterattack against the Japanese army last night, and his Nanjing garrison still had residual bravery! Rare... Rare..."
Jiang Baili was taken aback! Counterattack? How many chips Huang Haoran still has in his hand, Jiang Baili couldn't be clearer! Used to defend and attack? What to attack?
The highest authorities couldn't help but be a little happy when they saw Jiang Bai's anxious look, not like a fake, it seems that Huang Youchen's secrecy work has been done very well, and even Jiang Baili didn't see the slightest rumor, and after reading the battle report just now, the highest authorities who still felt that Huang Haoran's move was suspected of being cut first and then played finally found their psychological balance.
"See for yourself! Huang Youchen did another big thing in Nanjing, saving people's lives is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, he lived 100,000 people in one night, it seems that every household in Jinling will give Huang Youchen an immortal tablet in the future......"
The tone of the last few words spoken by the highest authorities actually revealed some jealousy, Jiang Baili didn't dare to talk before reading Huang Haoran's battle report, he took over the battle in the hands of the highest authority and quickly browsed it......
