The third part of the Bloody War of Resistance against the Third Chapter of the Second Jinpu Road Campaign, the second section of the transaction

Jihua turned around and Wells said, ". qВ5, c0M Xuzhou after the defeat of the army from the country to mobilize troops. Prepare for a new offensive. So the situation we face is still very dangerous. The number of our integrated armies is still very small. Therefore, our operations have always been based on the annihilation of the living forces of the Japanese army. Those who do not compete with the army for one city and one city. Xuzhou is likely to be lost in the next Japanese attack. Mr. Wells. But just like Nanjing. Abandoning Xuzhou did not mean the end of the war. The war car is still gliding on our predetermined tracks. ”

Wells was a little hard to accept. What he struggled to accept was being a soldier. He even planned to abandon important strategic areas for the sake of war. This is absolutely not allowed in the US military.

"Mr. President. Do you think so?" Wells asked Chiang Kai-shek, turning his head.

Chiang Kai-shek nodded. He got up and walked out from behind his desk. Walked slowly to the couch: "Mr. Wells." Our strategy is to lure the enemy deeper. The gap in strength between China and Japan is obvious. This battle was the only strategy that could defeat Japan. ”

Zhuang Jihua took over the topic again: "It will take at least five to eight years for us to build an industrial system that is sufficient for war." If your country is willing to increase its assistance to our country. This process will be accelerated. ”

Wells' eyebrows twitched. I was surprised. I was about to open my mouth to refute it. Zhuang Jihua didn't give him a chance. "There is only a part of the work in the southwest of our country. To American friends. We don't hide it. Now we are able to meet the needs of about fifty troops. Do you know why we didn't go to Jinan? Because we don't have that confidence. Can't afford to lose. I count every battle I fought on the front. When will the consumed materials be replenished? when the lost soldiers will be able to reach the troops; So we didn't dare to attack a fortified city like Jinan. But that will change next year. According to the industrial plan we have drawn up, we will be able to meet the needs of about 800,000 troops next year. This way we will be a little more lenient when we fight. ”

Wells' expression relaxed. He looked at Zhuang Jihua and Chiang Kai-shek thoughtfully. Now he somewhat understood why Roosevelt had asked him to try to talk to Zhuang Jihua.

“。 Aid us now. It's saving the lives of young people coming to the United States. Zhuang Jihua said.

"And what else do you want me to do?" Les asked. He then added: "The US Government does not agree to cut off economic and trade ties with Japan." Even the president can't do it. The council would never agree. Chiang Kai-shek was overjoyed. It was the first time Wells let go. He was about to speak, but Zhuang Jihua threw him a look, and he shut up at the moment. Zhuang Jihua picked up the topic: "I heard that your country exports scrap steel to Japan. There are also substances such as petroleum, rubber, etc. We built the country to raise export prices. Doubling the price of scrap iron ore. The price of petroleum rubber has also risen. ”

"This." Wells was ready to accept an offer for one or a dozen Chinese divisions. Unexpectedly, Zhuang Jihua proposed this: "The U.S. government cannot interfere in business." And if we raise the price. The British will sell to them the same. ”

"The U.S. government can raise export taxes on iron ore. In addition, you can contact businessmen to speculate on iron ore and oil in the futures market. In addition, due to Japan's dumping in the country. Discriminatory treatment. To the detriment of the Americans. Punitive tariffs can be imposed on goods exported from Japan to the United States. In the future, commercial trade between Japan and the United States will be settled in US dollars or gold. ”

This plan was just thought of by Zhuang Jihua. He was already a little excited. Secretly scolding yourself for being stupid. It is entirely possible to unite with Rockefeller and them to do this. However, in order to reduce the supervision of the U.S. government and win their cooperation, he Jue still said hello to him.

Wells didn't know much about military affairs. But Zhuang Jihua still understands the economy, and these points made him change his expression greatly, not to mention that they were all implemented. Even if it's half done. Japan will go bankrupt in less than two years. He gasped and said, "General Zhuang." No wonder you can be a business magnate like Rockefeller. You're knocking the Japanese out of the bones. ”

Chiang Kai-shek's suggestion to Zhuang Jihua was very strange. But look at Wells's reaction. I don't understand anymore. He became the chairman of the committee for nothing. But he moved. Waiting for Zhuang Jihua to continue to shoot.

"These measures can only weaken the Japanese army. We must also take steps to strengthen ourselves. Zhuang Jihua then took action: "The War of Resistance is long-term. We did not hope to crush the Japanese army within a year. So we want your government to help us build our factory. However, we have limited funds. I hope your Government will provide you with another interest-free loan. This money does not go into the domestic account. Buy machinery and equipment in the United States. ”

Wells thought about it and asked, "How much is the loan?" ”

Hua shook his head and said, "I don't know. If you agree. We'll talk to an expert. ”

Wells nodded. Then stand up. Whole clothes. Farewell to Chiang Kai-shek: "Your Excellency, Chairman. You and General Zhuang Jihua today gave a surprise that we have not had in the past month. I believe that your country's war of resistance has a future. I will certainly explain this to President Roosevelt. But what we just discussed. Approval from the President is required to proceed to the next step. ”

Song Meiling walked up with a smile: "We'll take care of it." Mr. Make. We will always look at your country as our friends. We hope that Mr. President will take a decision as soon as possible. ”

Song Meiling sent Wells away. Zhuang Jihua let out a long breath. As soon as I sat on the couch. Chiang Kai-shek looked at him. A smile appeared on his face: "Cultural Revolution." You're just in time. I have something I want you to help with. ”

Zhuang Jihua is very strange. Hurriedly stood up: "Headmaster." Don't say that. Saying that scares me. ”

"Haha." Chiang Kai-shek couldn't help but laugh. shook his head at Zhuang Jihua. I didn't expect Zhuang Jihua to be high

It's still like Whampoa back then. What do you want to say. Reach out and come.

"You know it's been years. I asked him to study at home. More than a year has passed. He said the other day that he wanted to come out and do something. I want him to go to the Five War Zone. What do you think? ”

Zhuang Jihua was stunned. Why did you get the prince here? The heart was alerted. Then he tentatively said, "No." No way. The Fifth Theater faced a big war. It is very dangerous to go there. Absolutely not. ”

Unexpectedly, Chiang Kai-shek was careless: ", dangerous? Now that's not dangerous. There are many wars in the country. Is there a safe party? ”

Zhuang Jihua was thinking about the intention of Chiang Kai-shek's move. He had asked Chiang Ching-kuo to be in charge of the Three Youth Leagues, but Chiang Kai-shek remembered it.

"Jingguo can go to the third group. Teng Jie has too many things. Kang Ze also wears many hats. When they go to the country, they can share their burdens. At the same time, it can also make Jingguo familiar with the affairs of the regiment and thus the party affairs. ”

Zhuang Jihua also groped for Chiang Kai-shek's purpose. What do you want from yourself? It is impossible to really want Chiang Ching-kuo to go to Xuzhou. So what do you want?

"It is detrimental to him to be in a high position without grassroots experience." Chiang Kai-shek's gaze was solemn. Sigh: "He has been in Soviet Russia for more than ten years. It was deeply poisoned by the Communist Party. I asked him to read to get rid of these harmful things in his head. Judging from the reading notes that I recently handed over. He has made progress in this area. It's not enough, and the rest can only be experienced by him. ”

Now Zhuang Jihua has a rough idea of what Jiang Shi wants. Consider putting a smile on your face: "Actually, the principal is not worried at all. Anyone who has experienced what Jingguo did in Soviet Russia. will doubt the correctness of the Lord they proclaim. My secretary's palace embroidery is a clear example of this. The principal wanted him to go to the grassroots. I think I'll go to Chongqing. He served as the vice-captain of the Southwest Development Team. He is also the secretary of the Chongqing Three Youth League, and can also be responsible for reserves and logistics. ”

Out of the understanding of Jiang Jing in his previous life. Zhuang Ji generously took out several important positions. However, this move had another meaning in Chiang Kai-shek's eyes. Zhuang Jihua's "loyalty" was unreserved. Chiang Kai-shek's heart suddenly burst into joy. But on the surface, there are reservations: "It's not good if it's too much, he's too young to go through much." Just let him take a position. ”

"It's good to talk to him. Let him choose. Do whatever you want. Zhuang Jihua sneered in his heart. Punch in and pull out. This method is old-fashioned, but the cost you paid this time is not small. I don't bleed no. We'll see. If Chiang Ching-kuo is not what he is in history. Then blame me.

"With Jingguo. It is possible to come true in the wish. Zhuang Jihua showed a smile. I was a little surprised to see Chiang Kai-shek. He explained: "He always wants to lead troops to the battlefield. But I didn't dare. You know, Principal. He never led a soldier. I haven't even been on the battlefield. How dare I hand over the troops to him. Now I have gone through the country. After he became familiar with the work of the Southwest Development Team. Zaitian can free up his hands to mess with me. ”

Chiang Kai-shek froze slightly. He didn't expect Zhuang Hua to have this kind of method. The development of the southwest was handed over to Chiang Ching-kuo. What does he mean by that? Chiang Kai-shek's heart swelled with doubts: "You did it right. Li Zhilong has no experience in leading troops. You can't bring troops. However, he has a strong ability to do politics. Jingguo cannot be compared with him."

"It's better to leave it to Jingguo. Zhuang Jihua seemed to mean: "Zaitian and I can get out of the matter." They can be the ballad of me and in the field. It's not going to be a country. ”

Chiang Kai-shek looked at it vigilantly, and Jihua glanced at it: "What kind of rumor are you making?" Cultural revolution. Don't be foolish. Don't be a slanderer. I trust you. Your contribution to the country cannot be said enough. The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression can have the situation it is like today. Credit. Someone wanted me to self-destruct the Great Wall. I'm not that stupid. ”

Chiang Kai-shek and Zhuang Jihua were both Chu. Recently, there has been a wave of rumors in Wu and Chongqing at the same time. Rumors against Zhuang Jihua. It is said that Zhuang Jihua borrowed the southwest to develop. Another system within the Whampoa system. I want to be the new leader of the Whampoa department. Zhuang Jihua borrowed Sichuan Development Company. Monopoly of the economy of the Southwest. the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China and the Sichuan Development Bank to control the country's finance; Collusion with forces in Kawachi. There is a suspicion of hijacking the government. Demand for the cancellation of the Southwest Development. The Sichuan Development Company and the Sichuan Development Bank were nationalized.

Zhuang Jihua is aware of the background of this stream. Even the person behind the command guessed roughly the same. The central economic force that was originally active in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. With the fall of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. No, not to move to the southwest. However, all the resources in the southwest are monopolized by the Sichuan Development Company. The development company became an insurmountable obstacle for them. The only way to do this is to remove the mountain. They have a chance—

Shi's dispatch of Chiang Ching-kuo to Chongqing was not without the element of "rumors". Of course, if you can get the development company in your pocket. That's ideal. Chiang Kai-shek was not sure in his heart. I don't know if Chiang Ching-kuo can take on this heavy responsibility.

"You just said. What does it mean that the war will be west of Xuzhou at the end of the year? Is that what you're here for? Chiang Kai-shek did not continue the topic again. began to ask why Zhuang Jihua was so eager to come back.

"Yes." Zhuang Jihua nodded in acknowledgement. Then he told Jiang Shi in detail the information that Wang Xiao= had come: "Principal. This information is absolutely accurate. It was provided by the same people who provided the Great Wall of Resistance. ”

Chiang Kai-shek's expression was very serious, he didn't expect Zhuang Jihua to bring such a confidential information. And the hostility that was revealed was so serious. Twenty divisions. More than half a million people. This was the largest number of troops invested by the Japanese army in any previous offensive, and the battlefield involved several provinces in the First Theater and the Five Theaters. Chiang Kai-shek thought about it and got off the electric bell. Bring the attendants in.

"Inform Chief of Staff He and Deputy Chief of Staff Bai. and Chen Cheng, commander of Wuhan City Defense. General Senator Jiang Baili. Lin Wei. Come to me at once. ”

Wait for the attendants to go out. Chiang Kai-shek to Zhuang Jihua

There is another thing about the Cultural Revolution that I would like to ask for your opinion. The Soviet-Russian advisory group wanted to transfer radar technology and rocket launcher technology, as well as penicillin technology. ”

"How much does he cost?" Zhuang Jihua asked casually.

"There is no money. Free transfer. Chiang Kai-shek said.

"That's not going to work. Absolutely not. Stalin was taking advantage of the fire. "Zhuang Jihua almost came. Not to mention radars and bazookas. Penicillin, like he couldn't agree: "This kid." Too good to go into business. Definitely make a fortune. The abacus is too fine. It's so fine. day. Bastard. ”

looked at Zhuang Jihua's angry appearance. Chiang Kai-shek Yile. Worries about the Japanese attack were unconsciously dispersed: "It is difficult for us to reject them all during the Cultural Revolution. Approaching them, they're still supporting us. ”

"Support us?" Zhuang snorted softly in his nostrils: "If it weren't for their own interests." Will they support us? If we are defeated. Stalin Masan would have forced us to sign a document that would allow us to be established. , the countrymen are wolf cubs. Never get enough to feed. ”

These words reminded Chiang Kai-shek of Zhuang Jihua's comments in Yunqiao, but he did not expect that after so many years, Zhuang Jihua's attitude towards Soviet Russia has not changed at all. On the contrary, there is a tendency to be more disgusting.

"I think so, Ray and Bazooka can be considered for transfer." Chiang Kai-shek came up with a compromise plan. Let's be honest. He was also aggrieved in his heart. But he didn't want to sin Soviet Russia. After all, you can't afford to lose a big deal because of a small thing.

"We paid for everything they gave. There is no need to be grateful. Zhuang Jihua stopped. Still angry. After a moment's thought, he said, "Headmaster." You don't have to be this villain. Let me or Li Zhilong come. Otherwise, let Tian Songyao or Liu Xiang come. You tell them so. We don't have the same system as theirs. Radar and rocket launcher technology is in the hands of the Sichuan Development Company. Not government-owned. Let them negotiate with the Sichuan Development Company. The government guarantees the green light. Don't look for trouble. ”

"The United States has the same feelings. You buy military technology. It's certainly no fun to find the U.S. government. You can only find a company. Soviet Russia was different. Their stuff is state. A word from the government. That's it. We are also what they call capitalism. 'Division is private. ”

Zhuang Jihua and Chiang Kai-shek are both. Song Meiling just came back. See what you look like. He asked curiously. Zhuang Jihua told her the method they had just discussed. Song Meiling couldn't help but be happy.

"Mother. Is Master Mei still in Wuhan? I'll go see his old man later. He has also worked hard over the years. Zhuang Jihua sighed. Over the years, he has bought most of the equipment than Mr. Mei. The old man is also the sole trustee of his company in the United States.

"You're back late. They went to Chongqing. Song Meiling was very happy when she mentioned this. Old Man Mei came back this time and finally accepted her marriage. The eldest sister also has a good face. The three Song sisters accompanied the old man around Wuhan twice. The relationship between the three sisters has also improved a lot as a result. Later, Song Ailing accompanied him to Chongqing.

"Oh." Zhuang Jihua's disappointment was beyond words. Back then, the decision to return to China was still the old man's determination to help him. He often admired this old man.

"The Cultural Revolution. The old man is full of praise for you. He worries about you all day long in the United States. Until you take Yunnan. He was fully mindful. Song Meiling smiled: "Don't worry." There is a chance. He will be in the country for a long time this time. At this point, she couldn't help but be happy again: "But Mei Youlan, this girl is unlucky." The man in charge of her has arrived. She couldn't run around anymore. ”

Thinking of Mei Youlan's sad and helpless appearance. Zhuang Jihua couldn't help but be happy. The three of them gossiped. Tang Zong came in to report. Jiang Baili and Lin Wei arrived. Song Meiling knew that they had military information to discuss. Say goodbye and leave immediately. Jiang Baili and Lin Wei were nearby, and they arrived first. Soon He Yingqin and Bai Chongxi also arrived. Chen Cheng was the last to arrive, and everyone arrived. Chiang Kai-shek asked Zhuang Ji to read out the information he had obtained.

"This information is absolutely reliable. In addition, we ask for your confidentiality. Chiang Kai-shek did not wait for them to ask questions, but first affirmed the authenticity of the information. Then he warned in a stern tone: "This information is only known to you. It is forbidden to pass on. The Japanese had spies in Wuhan and Xuzhou. Yellow's example. You can't help but absorb it. ”

He Yingqin and others all pointed out that in the past few years, leaks have occurred from time to time, and news of Gao's rebellion in Nanjing, Shanghai, and Beiping has come. No one can guarantee who is still in government today. Will it appear tomorrow in the government of the Japanese?

But how can such an unprecedented offensive be defused? There was a moment of silence in the room.

And on the other side of the city. Inside the office of Zhou Enlai. Li Kenong is reporting to Zhou Enlai on what he has gathered.

"We checked through several channels. The information he received was that the Japanese army in North China was still resting. The Japanese troops transferred from the mainland came ashore in Tianjin one after another. The Japanese army in Shijiazhuang has increased, and the Japanese army in Cangzhou, Baoding, has not changed at all. Buzhuang Jihua secretly flew back to Wuhan today. Then he went to Chiang Kai-shek's line. This shows that this information was not obtained by the military or the central government. It was obtained by the Fifth War Zone. But I never got it. How did Zhuang Jihua get this information? This is supposed to be top-secret intelligence. Li Kenong frowned. Within a day, he activated several intelligence agents embedded in the Kuomintang to verify the situation. But none of them knew that the Japanese army had a plan to attack Jizhong. "It's not surprising. Zhuang Jihua himself is a master of intelligence. Zhou EN came to hug his arms. The central callback arrived in the morning. The central government said that they did not have a report on this, and asked them to continue to investigate, but they also made an interesting suggestion. It is hoped that they will form an intelligence exchange with the five theaters through this incident. Zhou EN thought for a moment and said, "Is the blade tied?" It seems that only through him. ”

"It's not gone yet." Li Kenong replied worriedly, who is the blade. Zhou EN didn't say anything. He said that he had heard of the blade of the red team in Shanghai, but he belonged to the people of Chen's line. The identity is mysterious. Even Gu Shunzhang didn't know. Only Chen and Zhou Enlai in the party knew about him. But since it's been out for so long. Whether it has changed or not, it still needs to be proven. Even if it's urgent. There are also certain screening steps that are required.

This cut to find him. It is not known if there will be any consequences.

EN's sharp gaze seemed to see through his thoughts: "Don't worry. The blade doesn't change. And nothing will happen. ”

Since Zhou Enlai said so. Li Kenong has something to doubt. Now everything is in Xuzhou. The hope of that one. "Enlai." Wang Ming took a document and pushed it away. I saw Li Kenong slightly flustered. Still walked in. Li Kenong immediately said goodbye to Zhou EN. Wang Ming waited for him to go out. frowned and said, "Li Kenong has been busy for the past two days. God mysterious. ”

EN comes to the micro one. this topic. Instead, he asked, "Secretary Wang." Can I help you? ”

"This is an article I wrote," Wang Ming said eagerly.

"With the strength of the five theaters, it can withstand the attack of 200,000 to 300,000 Japanese troops." Bai Chongxi said: "The First War Zone broke through the sky and blocked 50,000. Therefore, we must increase our troops to the First and Fifth Theaters. ”

"If you increase your troops, you will form a decisive battle." Jiang Baili first objected: "Our strategy is to resist the war for a long time. There is no decisive battle at this stage. ”

"General Baili said yes." Lin Wei stood up to express his support: "In the past, we were all retreating and fighting a decisive battle. I thought it would be better to take a decisive battle this time by retreating. In Songhu, our lessons are too profound. ”

The losses in the Battle of Songhu were huge. Some of the troops involved in the battle were disabled. It took more than half a year to recover. This lesson is unforgettable for the senior generals who participated in the war.

"Henan's flat. It is conducive to the Japanese army to exert the power of rapid mobility. The disparity in military firepower is enormous. The casualties of the frontal resistance were enormous. Chen Cheng sighed. When this information is digested. He began to think about how to defuse this unprecedented Japanese attack. At this moment, he already had his own thoughts: "Retreat and fight a decisive battle." Annihilate the living forces. This is our long-term tactic. I suggest that this method of action be adopted again this time. Retreat to the decisive battle. "Cultural Revolution. What do you think? He Yingqin didn't speak. As chief of staff, he is mainly in charge of personnel and the establishment of troops. Since the rise of Zhuang Jihua and Chen Cheng. He rarely mixes these battles: "You are the front-line commander." What do you think? ”

"I'm in favor of a retreat battle. But it is also necessary to increase the number of troops. Especially the First World War Zone. Zhuang Jihua thought about it and said: "When the Japanese army crosses the border with Henan. The actual right thing in the First War Zone was the flank of the Japanese army. So they will have an opportunity. This is one of them; Second. Even if you retreat to the decisive battle. We must also consume the strength of the Japanese army. Otherwise, the Japanese army could have rushed all the way to Wuhan. So an increase in troops is inevitable. The purpose of my visit to Wuhan was to ask the principal for soldiers. As for the specifics' law. Wait for the specific action plan of the Japanese army to come out. ”

"Respectfully. How many troops can we draw north? Chiang Kai-shek nodded slightly. He had some confidence in winning the battle. Zhuang Jihua planted such a mine within the Japanese army. At least there won't be much to lose.

He Yingqin thought about it for a moment and said: "The Eleventh Army, the Seventy-second Army, the Seventy-fourth Army, the Twenty-seventh Army, the Fifth Army, and the Eighth Army. Eighteenth Army. The integration of these units has been completed. Another 22nd Army. In addition, there was the 86th Army, which was not reorganized. Sixty-sixth Army. The 83rd Army, the Second Army, the Fourth Army and other units were also there. Except for the troops who stayed behind to defend Wuhan. I propose to transfer the 27th Army, the 8th Army, and the 22nd Group Army to the north. plus the 71st Army, 72nd Army, and 74th Army that went north in the early stage. In this way, the first theater of operations increased by 300,000 troops. These are all our reorganized troops. Equipped. Strong combat effectiveness. ”

Although the 71st Army and other units were reorganized. It is not organized according to the three-three system. Rather, it is a two-three system - two divisions of the army, three brigades each. So thirty-six thousand for each army. The 22nd Group Army was designed according to the establishment of the 49th Group. The total strength is 100,000.

Xue Yue had an appointment with Chiang Kai-shek when he accepted the post of deputy commander of the First Theater of Operations and commander-in-chief of the former enemy. It is necessary to increase the number of troops in the First Theater of Operations. Chiang Kai-shek transferred three reorganizations to the past. It was also fortunate that the three integrated armies were transferred. Otherwise, the capacity of the Pinghan Railway. It is simply impossible to transport 300,000 troops and equipment to Henan in a month.

Chiang Kai-shek thought for a moment. The heart is a little reluctant. As soon as these units were reorganized, they were brought to the battlefield for attrition. It's a bit of a pain. He froze.

Hua spoke first: "I suggest the deployment of troops, the front is light and the latter is heavy. It is advisable to leave a force in the area of Dabie = on the border between Henan and Hubei. The number is around 50,000. Leaving a unit in this position was to prevent the Japanese from taking advantage of the victory and rushing towards Wu. It can also provide cover for the rear of Xuzhou. In addition, I propose to withdraw the districts of the First Army and the 78th Army in Xuzhou. Assembled in the mountains on the border of Henan and Anhui. ”

"So be it. The situation of the enemy is not yet very clear. Chiang Kai-shek said: "The 22nd Army and the Eighth Army immediately went north. The 2nd Army Corps of the 27th Army. Assemble in the district of Xinyang. Cultural revolution. You have to keep a close eye on the changes in the Japanese army. ”

At the time of the briefing. Neither Chiang Kai-shek nor Zhuang Jihua had any information, whether it was from the military or the central command. Only He Yingqin and Lin vaguely guessed that it was from Zhuang Jihua. They were all participants in the Great Wall War of Resistance. I had such an experience.
