Chapter 67 Clear Code Telegram
Watching Chen Ruoyun leave, Ye Feng couldn't help but be moved, and another beauty had the shadow of Ye Feng in her heart.
"Host, Sun Yang sent another secret message."
Just as Ye Feng was still watching Chen Ruoyun's figure that had gone away, Zhao Long walked over quickly, reported loudly, holding a telegram he had just received.
Ye Feng took back his thoughts, took the telegram, and started to read carefully.
This is a telegram about the battle situation in Nanjing. It is now on the afternoon of the 12th. The battle situation in Nanjing is very bad. Many Japanese troops have begun to break into the city. Tang Shengzhi, commander-in-chief of the Nanjing Defense War, has issued an order to retreat verbally.
In the entire Nanjing city, many national troops have begun to retreat north in a mess. Some ships that were originally transporting the common people across the river were also requisitioned by some national military officers, and these officers are given priority to sending them away first, especially some senior national military officers.
Now, the Chinese defenders who fled to Xiaguan have lost their establishment and become chaotic scattered soldiers. Some of them have rafted across the river themselves, many of them drowned, or were shot and killed by the Japanese troops who arrived. Most of the Chinese soldiers who failed to cross the river or broke through were scattered on the streets of Nanjing, and many of them gave up their weapons and put on casual clothes to hide in the Nanjing security zone.
At this time, a large number of ordinary people in Nanjing had no time to retreat, which was exactly the same as before the Nanjing Massacre broke out in the past and later years.
After reading the telegram, Ye Feng thought to himself, is it really inevitable that the Nanjing Massacre?
"Host, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Ye Feng's face solemn, Zhao Long couldn't help asking with concern.
"Oh!" Ye Feng sighed, "Sun Yang just sent a telegram that the Japanese army had begun to invade the city in large numbers. Our defending troops had begun to retreat to the riverside on a large scale. Xiaguan Wharf was already overcrowded and was out of water."
"These soft guys, so many people, don't you know how to fight the Japanese?" Zhao Long was filled with righteous indignation after hearing this.
Ye Feng frowned and thought hard. Since he had come to this world through time, Ye Feng wanted to do something for this nation, such as preventing the outbreak of the Nanjing Massacre, which Ye Feng really wanted to do.
Ye Feng walked back and forth, thinking for a long time, and a bold plan formed in Ye Feng's mind. However, if he really did this, it might bring very bad consequences to Ye Feng himself. However, compared to the massacre of 300,000 compatriots being massacred by the Japanese, personal gains and losses are no longer considered.
"That's it!"
If he made a decision in his heart, Ye Feng immediately took action.
"Zhao Long, set up our radio station soon, I want to send a message clearly."
Seeing Ye Feng giving such an order, Zhao Long felt a little strange, but still faithfully executed it. A radio station was quickly set up.
Ye Feng pondered for a while and began to tell the story. Zhao Long personally sent a report, and a telegram that shocked both China and Japan was sent out soon.

Japanese Central China Front Command.
The Japanese general and commander-in-chief of the Central China Front Army, Matsui Ishione, were looking at the map. On the map, the situation of the Japanese army was gratifying, and inside and outside Nanjing were full of Japanese troops.
Just now, Matsui Ishigen has received a report. The Chinese army that had resisted before is retreating on a large scale, giving up resistance, and scrambling to retreat, in a mess. After receiving such reports, Matsui Ishigen is naturally in a good mood.
The capital of China is about to be occupied!
Just when Matsui Ishione was in a good mood, a Japanese major came in hurriedly and reported: "Hissergeant Commander-in-Chief, almost all of our radio stations have received a clear telegram. The person who sent this telegram claimed to be the Independent Brigade of the Third War Zone of the National Army."
A clear telegram?
Matsui Ishien, who felt a little strange in his heart, received the telegram. The telegram was very long, and the head was "Letter to All Japanese Army". The general meaning of the telegram was that the Independent Brigade had successfully captured Asakamiya Hikari alive. Through interrogation of Asakamiya Hikari, it had learned that the Japanese army besieged Nanjing was preparing to massacre the Chinese people in Nanjing after occupying Nanjing.
The telegram warned the Japanese side to strictly restrain the troops. If a large-scale massacre really occurred, in order to avenge the Chinese people, the Independent Brigade would publicly execute Hikari Asakamiya in Shannan County.
"Baga! It's this damn independent brigade again."
Matsui Ishigen was furious. In Matsui Ishigen's view, the Independent Brigade was publicly threatening the entire Japanese Imperial Army. When did the arrogant Japanese army be so openly threatened?
Matsui Ishigen walked around with a gloomy face. Matsui Ishigen knew more clearly about the series of orders issued by Asakamiya Hirohiko before. Two of them were signed by Asakamiya Hirohiko himself. If these two orders were implemented, they would definitely turn into a massacre.
One of the orders was about the handling of prisoners. Before capturing Nanjing, the Japanese army drafted the handling orders about the handling of prisoners. Asakamiya Hikari signed the four words "kill all".
Another order was the reason of "there are insufficient camping sites outside the city" and "there is insufficient use due to lack of water", and the original order for Japanese officers and soldiers to camp outside Nanjing was modified, and it was announced that Japanese troops outside the city could choose camping sites in Nanjing at will.
In later generations, it was this order that the 200,000 Japanese troops were like opening the cage of wild animals. The Japanese troops were like groups of hungry and furious wolves, rushing around the streets and alleys in Nanjing. At this point, the massacres and various atrocities were staged one by one.
Of course, Matsui Ishigen knew that if these two commands were executed, they would definitely turn into a massacre if they were not controlled. Although Matsui Ishigen had always acquiesced to this point.
In Matsui Ishione's opinion, it doesn't matter even if a massacre broke out. Anyway, all the people killed were Chinese. However, now that the Independent Brigade actually sent a clear telegram, the possibility of the outbreak is very small.
If a massacre broke out and the Independent Brigade fought back and killed Asakamiya Hikari to vent his anger, the matter would be serious, and even Matsui Ishien could not afford it.
The Independent Brigade has clearly reported the cicada. You are not restraining the troops, and there is a massacre incident, which has led to the Independent Brigade killing Asakamiya Hikari. This is not obvious. Matsui Ishien needs to bear the main responsibility.
With a blue face, Matsui Ishien could only give orders helplessly to restrain the troops and prohibit the killing of Chinese civilians. No Chinese prisoners are allowed to be killed without reason.
Sure enough, a massacre was resolved by Ye Feng. After the city of Nanjing was destroyed, the Japanese army did not attack the people. Some people who did not know the truth thought that the Japanese army had changed their nature.

The Third War Zone Command.
Because it was a clear message, many radio stations in the Third War Zone also received telegrams from Ye Feng. Some of the senior officers who saw the telegram were admired by Ye Feng's actions. This brigade commander Ye really dared to do it. He actually threatened the Japanese army, but I like it.
Gu Zhutong also read the telegram. After reading the telegram, Gu Zhutong was slightly displeased and thought to himself, Ye Feng was too brave. He would openly send the news without asking for instructions and not having to communicate with him. Do he still have his boss in his heart?
"It's so unreasonable. I want to remove his vocation and his post."
"General." A lieutenant general of the National Army next to him said carefully: "The Independent Brigade has made great contributions in Nanjing. According to statistics, it annihilated more than 2,000 Japanese troops, destroyed dozens of heavy artillery pieces of the Japanese army, and captured Asakamiya Hikari alive. We will now revoke their numbers, but I am afraid it is not good."
Gu Zhutong thought for a while, "Then report the situation to the Chairman and ask the Chairman to decide."
