Judging from this posture, the Japanese army is going to take action this time! I admit that Jiang Qiang is indeed very capable and his troops are very capable, but the Japanese army has aircraft, artillery and warships for fire support, and two elite A-type divisions with full strength

Attack, with this intensity of attack, it’s amazing that they can persist for ten days!”

Chen Brai shook his head at this time and said: "I don't think so. Although Jiang Qiang and I have only been in contact twice, I can see that Jiang Qiang is a master who will never suffer losses! Since Jiang Qiang has put up a defensive formation

Form, then you will definitely have considerable confidence and back-up, and you will never be completely defeated by the Japanese army easily!" He Zhonghan said with some displeasure: "Yanji, you are too confident in Yang Fan, right? Is it possible for you?

Do you still think that Jiang Qiang can survive the desperate situation this time like before, or even achieve a complete victory? Is he a god who can spread beans and make soldiers?"

"Okay! This is not the key!" The chairman of the committee waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "What we lack most at the moment is time. If Jiang Qiang can sustain it for one more day, we will have an extra chance of winning the battle in Xuzhou! So we can't let Jiang Qiang

They were easily annihilated by the Japanese army, but they had to coordinate rescue operations when necessary! Mu Yin, send a telegram to Li Zongren, asking him to pay more attention to the situation of Jiang Qiang's headquarters!" Since he had previously agreed not to interfere in the military affairs of the fifth theater, Chairman Chiang Kai-shek

Although I wanted to give instructions directly at this time, in the end I could only choose to give tactful suggestions instead of explicit instructions!

"Is this Jiang Qiang so hated by the Japanese? He actually broadcast it live on a radio station?" Soon, Li Zongren also learned about Japan's NHK radio station, and a group of senior generals gathered around the radio to listen with great curiosity.

Get up. "Good boy! You kid, you think Yang Fan is your sworn enemy! If this continues, will Jiang Qiang really be able to withstand it?"

Xu Zuyi was frightened by the continuous violent bombings and the tsunami charge of the Japanese troops on the radio. He could not imagine what kind of casualties there would be under the intensity of such an attack! Zhang Zizhong looked solemn and sighed softly: "Commander Jiang and I

The commander once fought side by side in Fengtai, Beiping, and I admire his courage and character very much! Unexpectedly, half a year later, we have become a brother in the friendly army. I really hope that he can be a blessing to us!"

"Haha! Let's not be unfounded. Jiang Qiang is definitely not that fragile! This guy has repeatedly performed miracles. Since he can turn defeat into victory under absolutely unfavorable conditions many times, he will definitely not be easily defeated on his own territory.

!" Li Zongren waved his hand gently, and then said: "Our current situation is not much better! There are six Japanese divisions in front of us. What we should worry about most is ourselves, not Jiang Qiang, who has a strong army!"

Li Zongren walked to the military map worriedly. The shocking red arrows were like huge rocks pressing on him, making him feel depressed and out of breath! Zhang Zizhong led his troops to Guzhen on February 11 and fought a bloody battle with the Japanese army.

On the 1st, the strongholds of Cao Laoji, Xiaobengbu and Huaiyuan were successively recovered, and the Japanese troops that had jumped to the north of Huainan were eliminated, and the Yu Xuezhong Department was assisted in recovering the original positions.

At this point, the Chinese army and the Japanese army formed a state of confrontation across the river. Zhang Zizhong was Feng Yuxiang's old subordinate, and his sword team had gained a reputation during the Anti-Japanese War at Xifengkou Great Wall by killing the Japanese army in close combat and night combat. After the July 7 Marco Polo Bridge Incident

The defense battle between Peking and Tianjin failed, and Zhang Zizhong was appointed mayor of Peking, following the secret orders of Song Zheyuan to deal with the Japanese army!

Zhang Zizhong endured the humiliation and covered the safe retreat of Song Zhe's Yuan army. However, the outside world did not know the truth and thought he was a traitor who was seeking glory. Later, Zhang Zizhong escaped from Peiping and reached Nanjing after many twists and turns. However, the public opinion circle who did not know the truth called for him to be severely punished as a warning to others.

, some people in the military circles want to take the opportunity to recruit his troops.

At this critical moment, Li Zongren stepped forward to invite Zhang Zizhong for a long talk, saying: "Brother Xin Chen, I know that you have been wronged. Now the public opinion is condemning you because they don't know the truth. When they understand the truth, they will not

I scold you. I know that you are a chivalrous man and a strict military officer. I understand you and of course I can forgive you." Zhang Zizhong couldn't help but shed tears and said with shame: "This time I took a personal risk and came to Beijing to avenge my sin.

Come and surrender yourself and wait for the government to punish you."

Li Zongren encouraged: "Brother Xinchen, I advise you not to be discouraged. I am going to advise the chairman of the committee to let you go back and continue to lead the army." Feng Yuxiang and Li Zongren helped Zhang Zizhong succeed Song Zheyuan as the 59th Army Corps commander in February.

When Chief Zhang Zizhong said goodbye to Li Zongren, he said: "If it hadn't been for Chief Li's words, even if I, Zhang, would not have been shot, I would have been imprisoned as a national criminal.

Now that I have been honored by my superiors and rekindled with kindness, I, Zhang, shall dedicate my blood and life to serving the country and repaying my kindness." Later, Zhang Zizhong's 59th Army became Li Zongren's war zone organization in the fifth theater, and naturally he followed Li Zongren's words and orders.

The call ends, the fight is a desperate one! After more than a month of bloody battles, the southern front of the Fifth Theater has temporarily stabilized the situation and entered a state of confrontation across the river. However, the Japanese army is further mobilizing troops, and the pressure on the Fifth Theater will only increase.
Chapter completed!
