Chapter 460 Recalling the past
After all, the media at this time did not dare to rush around like later generations. Now it is a war period, and it can be said that it is an extraordinary period. All reporters who dare to provoke these soldiers may be arrested by the military bureau. Even if you just want to interview, then there will be many charges that can be pressed on you and make you a person who intends to assassinate the important officials of the State Council.
After Wang Mingyu and others arrived at the destination, they found that their people were just a small group. Yan Xishan, Shanxi, arrived in Wuhan a day ago. At this moment, the conference hall in the meeting looked very solemn. This time, Chairman Jiang attracted a lot of attention to this matter. The main topic of Chairman Jiang's meeting was actually to analyze the current and future situation.
To be honest, this analysis of the current and future situation is just a cover. I have analyzed this kind of thing many times. Chairman Jiang’s main purpose at this time is obviously to divert the public’s attention, not to really hold this high-level meeting. But only Chairman Jiang knows these. Is others clear about it? Naturally, it’s not clear.
Outside the conference room of the Supreme Military Commission, there is a sentry every three meters, extending to the door. These people are carefully selected guards. They can be said to be one of the best men in a hundred to look at the guards with a squinted look and know how important these people are to come this time.
With the attention of these guards, Wang Mingyu and others slowly stepped into the conference room of the Supreme Military Commission. This time, they almost covered the cutting-edge strength of the entire National Government military. The attendance was held this time, including Chairman Jiang Feng Yuxiang, Commander-in-Chief Yan Xishan, Chief Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi, Cheng Qian, Jiang Baili, He Yingqin, Chen Cheng, Xue Yue, Wang Mingyu, etc., and some people did not attend this Supreme Meeting for various reasons.
The conference hall was not luxurious at the time, but it was filled with a sense of atmosphericity. The tables and chairs of the conference were made of all colored red sandalwood. The ground was covered with red carpets, and the rest were filled with plants. The entire venue was simple but not simple. As the most important person, Chairman Jiang naturally had to come to the end.
In addition to Wang Mingyu, Chen Cheng and Xue Yue are actually just humans. Generally, they are rarely invited to attend such meetings. However, this time, Chen Cheng's Ninth War Zone and Xue Yue's Corps were direct participants. As well as Wang Mingyu, they were naturally going to attend.
Chairman Jiang had not come yet, so everyone naturally wanted to make a fuss. However, there were exceptions among them. Chen Cheng and Xue Yue were both old partners during the Battle of Shanghai. At that time, Wang Mingyu was actually under their leadership in a strict sense. At this time, the three of them chatted together not so abruptly.
Wang Mingyu first went up and shook hands with Chen Cheng and Xue Yue and said, "Hello, Commander-in-Chief, General Xue, why didn't General Zhang come this time? Wang Mingyu actually wanted to see Lieutenant General Zhang Zhi the most, and one of them was General Xue Yue. Now General Xue Yue is right in front of him, Wang Mingyu naturally asked Lieutenant General Zhang Zhi where he went.
Chen Cheng shook his head and said: I don’t know much about this. Maybe General Zhang has something else to do. The reason is not something you and I can know. How could Chen Cheng know about it? It’s just pretending to be mysterious. Chen Cheng is known as the young chairman. The most important thing is that he likes to learn from Chairman Jiang very much.
Xue Yue said carelessly: I said, brother, we haven't met for half a year after we parted in Suzhou, but we just see that your official position is getting bigger and bigger, and we can't catch up with it. Haha, but, you guys are really talking about war. My old Xue really wants to thank you very much. If it weren't for you, I would have changed my name and surname.
Wang Mingyu smiled and said: What did Brother Xue say? We are a relationship of life and death. It’s not just you, but also the three of us, but we are all in the south and north. It’s important for us to achieve such a situation now. It’s the credit of Chief Chen and Brother Xue. I really feel ashamed.
Chen Cheng smiled slightly and said: You kid is really modest. To be honest, I am confused until now. I still don’t understand this little Japanese is so impatient and actually signed an armistice agreement with you. I think Lao Xue really thanks you. If it weren’t for your Japanese division that has restrained so many times, Lao Xue wouldn’t be able to withstand it.
Xue Yue did not deny it: This is the truth. Five Japanese divisions led a brigade to siege our southern Henan area. Now there are only three divisions left. I am very relaxed and at ease. This battle is getting more and more interesting. But I heard that there has been a lot of help there, and the situation is getting worse and less understandable.
Chen Cheng snorted coldly: There is indeed a lot of help over there, but they are always the chief conscientious members of the committee. I think this meeting was the sudden rise and consciously held this meeting. This meeting showed such strong combat power. What do they want to do to provoke the majesty of the National Government? This is a provocation to the chairman.
Wang Mingyu felt a stern, it was true that things were indeed the case. How could it not cause Chairman Jiang’s suspicion if he had always been low-key? Wang Mingyu clearly knew that Chairman Jiang’s guardianship had reached an outrageous stage. Now, such a unit appeared at this time, which really made Chairman Jiang think a lot.
The most important thing is that he has always been good at forbearance. Chairman Jiang is worried more than this incident. You should know that what is shown at the moment is just a place in Linyi. There are so many places like Linyi. Chairman Jiang doesn’t know, but the more he doesn’t know, Chairman Jiang naturally has the more he is still scared. It seems that this matter is difficult to be good.
Although Wang Mingyu thought in his heart, he still said calmly: Now is the period of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. It is a good thing for us to have such a performance. Their effective attack on the Japanese army will naturally reduce the pressure for us. As far as I know, more than 5,000 Japanese troops were eliminated this time, but the authenticity of this news is subject to debate.
The purpose of Wang Mingyu's saying this is naturally to reduce some pressure slightly. If you say that you can destroy more than 5,000, you will believe that Chen Cheng and Xue Yue also raised their eyebrows slightly. This issue was really not considered. After Wang Mingyu said it, Chen Cheng smiled and said: Brother Wang's words make sense, and it is very likely that they should put gold on their faces. But even so, they said that destroying more than 5,000 Japanese troops should at least destroy more than 2,000 Japanese troops. This issue must be taken seriously.
Xue Yue said: Old Chen, you are too sensitive, you must know that even if you want to eliminate more than 5,000 Japanese troops, their losses are immeasurable. When I heard that the armed forces in Yimeng had exceeded 10,000, and after this war, they only had more than 2,000 people left, at least they helped me a lot.
Chen Cheng is not as capable as Xue Yue in war, but when it comes to thinking about Chairman Jiang's thoughts, he asked himself that few people could compare to him. This time he hit the point. Chairman Jiang's goal this time was naturally to target this approach and to come up with corresponding countermeasures. Chairman Jiang always threatened the first threat. This was really incredible at the time.
Wang Mingyu said: I think, this time the principal asked us to discuss the situation in Wuhan. The battle in Wuhan is a bit confusing now. In fact, after Chen Cheng's reminder, Wang Mingyu knew that the purpose of Chairman Jiang's meeting this time seemed to be to be on the right side. However, the Japanese army now has a great threat, so this kind of guard is absolutely impossible to be on the surface.
Chen Cheng nodded and said: The Battle of Wuhan has been a bit incomprehensible so far. The main reason is that it is your 318th Army. Haha, it seems that the principal's question is mostly about you. Lao Xue and I will listen carefully. Now if we ask for a while, there will be no suspense. After that, Chen Cheng went to say hello to others.
Xue Yue whispered: I really have to thank my brother for his help this time. If it weren't for you and me, it would be a mess. Now everything is still under control. I hate it.
Wang Mingyu said: Brother Xue’s words are wrong. This time the Wuhan Battle is not only about you and me, but directly affects the progress of China and Japan. This time we can only put in the strength to take care of ourselves. Otherwise, wouldn’t the Japanese want to bully our vast China and no one is there?
Xue Yue smiled and said: But a month later, the Japanese launched a new attack. The pressure on both sides will definitely not be less. I received the news that the Japanese North China Front Army's Itagaki Division was advancing south, with the goal directly aiming at Tongcheng. With the existing three divisions and one brigade, the total number is four divisions and one brigade. Our hundreds of thousands of troops were only fought.
