    While the time-travelers of the Shanghai Soviet government are busy planning a nuclear explosion that is about to shake the world, the prairie fires all over the land of China are still burning and spreading step by step

    On March 19, faced with a situation of disintegration, the Hunan warlord He Jian, who was trapped in Hengyang, was forced to announce his resignation and step down, and then moved his family to Hong Kong to live in an apartment.  Chiang Kai-shek thus won the "War between the Two Lakes" and extended his sphere of influence from Hubei to Hunan. His collapse was slightly restored, but he was once again trapped by the faint encirclement of the Guizhou Red Army, the Sichuan-Shaanxi Red Army, the Dabie Mountain Red Army and the Jiangxi Red Army.  .

    On March 20, Texas fell, and the Japanese army in North China invaded the hinterland of Shandong. Due to the conflicting attitude of the Shandong warlord Han Fuqu, his lack of firm will to resist, and the mischief caused by traitors in the Nanjing National Government, the Shandong Army on the north bank of the Yellow River almost  It is self-defeating without a fight.  The Japanese First Division, which had just landed in northern Jiangsu, immediately attacked northward from Lianyungang, forming a flanking attack with the Japanese troops in North China. The situation in Shandong was in danger.

    On March 23, Zhang Xueliang, who was based in Xiangyang, rejected the threats and inducements from the Japanese envoys and Chiang Kai-shek's invitation to serve as "Vice Chairman of the Military Commission of the Wuhan National Government". Instead, under the active activities of the Shanghai Soviet government's secret envoys  .  The troops were assembled in Nanyang and prepared to fight.  At the same time, the "United Anti-Japanese Declaration" was publicly issued, declaring in the statement: "The Chinese nation has reached its final moment! Nowadays, regardless of north or south, old or young, everyone has the responsibility to defend the country and resist the war.  We should be determined to sacrifice everything!" After seizing the commanding heights of the anti-Japanese cause, Zhang Xueliang also called on all parties to form a "Central Plains Anti-Japanese United Army."  In Henan, the birthplace of Chinese civilization, a decisive battle with the Japanese invaders was immediately received by the Red Army under Yang Hucheng in Shaanxi, Yan Xishan in Shanxi, and Xu Xiangqian in the Dabie Mountains.

    In response to this, the two national governments in Wuhan and Nanjing were furious and issued orders to dismiss Zhang Xueliang on the same day.

    On March 24, during the Jinan mutiny, pro-Japanese traitors and spies jointly attacked Han Fuqu's apartment and shot him to death.  immediately.  The Shandong gentry established a maintenance committee and invited the Japanese Imperial Army to station in Jinan, the provincial capital, to preside over Shandong affairs - Shandong thus fell into the hands of the Japanese invaders!

    On March 25, the vanguard of the Japanese army entered Jinan, and the Japanese newspaper once again published a good news - "Jinan Bloodless Kaicheng"!

    March 26, after Shandong changed hands.  Seeing that Japan's forces in China had been connected from Heilongjiang to the Yangtze River, but still refused to launch an attack on the Bolsheviks entrenched in Shanghai, the United States and Britain, deeply felt that they had been fooled, were furious and issued an ultimatum to Japan, ordering it to "no  We have failed to live up to the expectations of our allies. We will deploy military force to the intended target as soon as possible." Otherwise.  "Japan will bear the responsibility of breaking the alliance and suffer unpredictable consequences."  However, Japan still went its own way and once again mobilized two divisions to join the North China battlefield.

    On March 27, the vanguard of the Japanese army crossed the Yellow River and occupied Kaifeng. The defenders surrendered without a fight.

    On March 28, Sun Tongxuan led a part of the Shandong Army that refused to surrender to the Japanese invaders to retreat westward and joined forces with Zhang Xueliang.  The war in the Central Plains is about to break out.

    On the same day, in view of the Japanese army's "repeated admonishment", the joint fleets of Britain, France and the United States ended their attack on the East China coast and turned around to the Sasebo naval port in Japan. In accordance with the provisions of the "Manila Convention", they requested fuel and material supplies from the Japanese side, and at the same time requested the Japanese side.  Armed demonstrations.

    On April 1, reinforcements mobilized by the United States from all over the west coast gradually arrived on the coast of eastern Zhejiang

    ¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù

    Under the blue sky, the turbid waves hit the freeboard of the ship, splashing and turning into white foam, and finally slowly fell back.

    Accompanied by the neighing of seagulls and the whine of the whistle, a waving Stars and Stripes flag fluttered on the mast with the sea breeze. Colonel Whitney, holding a corncob pipe in his mouth, stood leisurely under the mast, squinting.  Looking at the hazy land at the end of the horizon.

    There is a saying in the United States, "Businessmen of the North are soldiers of the South." This is true.

    ¡ª¡ªThe southern states of the United States, enclosed by swamps, forests, muddy roads and large private plantations, have always had an image of barbarism, rudeness and ignorance in the modern history of the United States.  Compared with the shrewd northerners, the tough southerners are better at fighting.

    During the Civil War between the North and the South in the 19th century, although the Northern Army was morally and economically?, finance, personnel and logistics all had an absolute advantage. However, the South still had the courage to initiate the war and let the brutal war drag on for four full years. The Northern Army suffered heavy losses. This brilliant record was not widely known in the world.  To a certain extent, this was due to the superb command skills of General Robert E. Lee, the famous commander of the Confederate Army, and the bravery of hundreds of thousands of Confederate soldiers.

    Therefore, even though they lost the Civil War, Americans in the southern states still believed that they were the bravest warriors in the Americas.

    With such full self-confidence, Colonel Whitney from Georgia led a regiment of southern boys across the vast Pacific Ocean to ancient China to "punish" the tyrannical Bolsheviks and gain credit for himself.  and medals.

    According to Colonel Whitney, this should be an extremely easy and pleasant task - those dark, thin and wretched Chinese with long braids, smoking opium cigarettes, it is more than enough for him to deal with one or ten of them.  ¡ª¡ªAnd his subordinates thought the same way. Several of the soldiers with cowboy backgrounds even specially brought cattle nooses, preparing to demonstrate their skills in using nooses to capture prisoners on the battlefield.

    However, when Colonel Whitney and his young men from the southern states of the United States, who were seasick and suffering from vomiting and diarrhea, finally set foot on Chinese soil in early April after a bumpy journey of tens of thousands of kilometers.  The cruel reality gave him a blow.

    ¡ª¡ªOn the eve of Qingming Festival in eastern Zhejiang, it is the perfect time for spring breeze to blow and greenery to sprout.  And the eastern Zhejiang region is surrounded by mountains and sea.  It has always had beautiful scenery with beautiful mountains and clear waters.  But under the ravages of war and gunpowder smoke, Ningbo's Beilun Port area has turned into a huge garbage dump.

    From the deck of the merchant ship "Llama" on which Colonel Whitney was riding, looking towards the shore, we saw across a piece of yellow turbid water, a devastated land: the ancient temple was in ruins, the breakwater was blasted into craters,  The beach was littered with craters and charred houses and trees.  There are also countless smashed and discarded military supplies.  Scraped cars and trucks, cannons missing wheels, and charred crates are all blocking the road. Whenever the tide recedes, parts of various weapons and machinery, even incomplete ones, can be found on the beach.  Incomplete corpses.  Beside the burnt-blackened trestle, several sunken ships were stuck crookedly in the sand, revealing their bows and bottoms covered with shells and algae.  It seemed extremely miserable.

    "You really shouldn't have come to China at this time, Colonel! There is no victory and honor here, only death and frustration."

    Colonel Whitney¡¯s former subordinate and now the top commander of the US military on the Ningbo front line, Lieutenant Colonel Foster, stood on the trestle of the Beilun Port pier to greet the reinforcements.  And he unabashedly said the above-mentioned discouraging words that shook the morale of the military - after a month of hard fighting in mainland China, Lieutenant Colonel Foster's appearance became so powerful that Colonel Whitney was almost unrecognizable.  .  His hair is disheveled, his beard is long, dark and thin.  The wrinkled military uniform was stained with mud, and the knees and elbows were torn.  His eyes were covered with red threads, just like Robinson Crusoe on a desert island.

    "Don't say that, dear old Foster, cheer up, you look terrible!" Colonel Whitney frowned and said, "Don't be depressed anymore, domestic reinforcements have arrived, we  These damn Bolsheviks will be beaten right out of their wits!"

    "The problem is that our souls have been knocked out of our bodies a long time ago. And within a week, you will be like me, sir. In this torturous place, even the living can turn into ghosts.  Lieutenant Colonel Foster muttered, "if your troops can still hold on to the mainland for a week and are not driven into the sea by those red-headed bastards in this week"

    "Drove into the sea? I seem to have heard something incredible" Colonel Whitney's eyes widened in disbelief, "When I set out from Manila, the newspapers were all about your victories.  Good news!"

    "That's because of the information lag, sir." Lieutenant Colonel Foster replied with a wry smile, "Indeed, we relied on the gunfire cover of the battleship to successfully land on the beach in Ningbo, and then cooperated with the local  The Chinese government troops launched a counterattack and advanced 150 kilometers along the railway line, defeating a Bolshevik regiment But the problem was that after we got carried away and continued deep into the inland, we unfortunately collided  After getting on the iron plate, the whole army collapsed after a fierce and fierce battle, and was beaten back to the starting point.

    After this tragic defeat, the four regiments we had when we landed, including 3,000 American boys and 2,000 Filipino native infantry, now have less than 500 people left in total.  The aircraft on the two aircraft carriers, the USS Saratoga and the USS Lexington, have been almost completely depleted, and now they all rely on the troops transferred from the Philippines.The machine supports the scene.  But the forward positions are still being strafed and bombed by enemy aircraft every day"

    "Enemy plane? Although I heard the news on the ship, I still can't believe that these ignorant Chinese can also fly planes." Colonel Whitney curled his lips, "The United States has already invested here.  Are at least a hundred of the best fighter jets still unable to seize air supremacy and destroy the crappy planes that the Chinese Bolsheviks tinkered with out of nowhere?¡±

    "A tattered plane? Big mistake, Colonel. Compared with the planes of these Chinese rebels, our planes are more like tatters!"

    While saying these words, Lieutenant Colonel Foster had already guided Colonel Whitney to a deserted rice field, and then pointed out to him the wreckage of a crashed Chinese plane - although it had been smashed into pieces, it was  It can still be clearly distinguished that this should be a streamlined monoplane with a shiny silver aluminum alloy skin, an all-metal frame and a closed two-person cockpit In comparison, the U.S. Navy and Army currently have a wide range of  Equipped and used P12 Boeing biplane fighter: a large kite with a wooden fuselage and canvas skin.  It seems too outdated.

    This made Colonel Whitney obviously stunned for a while: "an all-metal monoplaneI have to say, this discovery surprised me."

    "on this incredible battlefield. There are many surprising things! Sir." Lieutenant Colonel Foster said as he took a captured AK47 from the guard and handed it to Colonel Whitney.  In the hands of the enemy, " even with infantry firepower, we were completely suppressed by the Chinese Bolsheviks - they widely used this advanced submachine gun, and set off rockets like fireworks, which exploded into a large area.  The most terrifying thing is that they actually used poison gas! All the young men in a regiment were gassed and died horribly!"

    "There is actually poisonous gasGod! I really doubt whether this is China or not, and the opponents you are fighting are not Chinese!" Colonel Whitney held his head and exclaimed, "In my  In the impression, the Chinese seem to be smoking opium, holding rifles that we have eliminated for decades, unkempt, listless, sallow, and cunning. They are happy to deceive, infighting and betrayal"

    "Of course there are many Chinese like this." Lieutenant Colonel Foster smiled bitterly and nodded, "but they are all on our side"

    "Oh, my God -" Colonel Whitney couldn't help but moaned, feeling his head twitching, "in the previous joint operations, these Chinese government troops must have created something for us.  A lot of trouble. Right?"

    "The trouble they can cause far exceeds your most pessimistic imagination, sir!" At this point, Lieutenant Colonel Foster's tone could almost be described as tragic and indignant. "Just last week, the Chinese government  General Yu Jishi, the top commander of our army in the Zhejiang battlefield, ordered the frontline troops to retreat without any warning, but left our top commander, Major General Rachel, and his 2,000 men surrounded by 40,000 enemy troops -  ¡ªThen. We heard the captured confession and surrender order personally narrated by Major General Rachel from the Bolshevik radio station"

    "How could this damn yellow-skinned monkey do this?! Does he know what he is doing?!!" Colonel Whitney was also angry.

    "Unfortunately, when we went to General Yu Jishi to protest afterwards, we discovered that at least in this matter, we could not blame him at all. Sir, although it is incredible, in the final analysis, this tragedy was caused by ourselves.  ." Lieutenant Colonel Foster replied.

    This answer confused Colonel Whitney, so he asked Lieutenant Colonel Foster to explain the whole thing exactly. Finally, he was helpless to discover that, to some extent, this tragedy was indeed an American tragedy.  It's your own fault.

    ¡ª¡ªIn nearly a month from early March to early April, the evolution of the war situation in eastern Zhejiang was roughly as follows:

    At the end of February, Jiangxi Red Army Mao Zetan's unit, which received strong assistance from Shanghai, launched a series of vigorous attacks against the remaining Kuomintang troops entrenched in Ningbo. They successively captured Shangyu, Yuyao, Taizhou and other places, and once invaded Fenghua County, Chiang Kai-shek's hometown.  , Yu Jishi had to be trapped in Ningbo.

    In early March, just before the Red Army launched its final general attack on Ningbo, a U.S. military force made a forced landing and relied on naval artillery bombardment and carrier-based aircraft bombing to completely crush the Red Army's offensive.  Next, in the Battle of Hemudu, Mao Zetan's last effort to maintain the front was shattered.  The Kuomintang troops, who had recovered from their losses, took the opportunity to launch a massive counterattack with the help of returning regiments from all walks of life, and once reached the outskirts of Shaoxing.

    After receiving the bad news from the front, Xunhuai, who was stationed in Hangzhou,The general immediately sent troops eastward and launched a series of fierce battles with the Kuomintang troops and the landing US troops.  In order to reverse the decline in the shortest possible time, the Red Army frantically used a large number of Soman gas bombs on the battlefield, killing about 20,000 U.S. and Kuomintang troops in one fell swoop, thus completely crushing Yu Jishi's counterattack attempt.  In the middle of this month, the two sides turned to a confrontation on the front line in Yuyao.

    Because the resistance on the battlefield in eastern Zhejiang was far more intense than expected and the number of casualties was too high, the American minister in Nanjing repeatedly urged the Wang Jingwei regime in Nanjing and Japan's "South China Expeditionary Force" to fulfill their international obligations and asked them to fulfill their international obligations as soon as possible.  Take concrete action to support the isolated American landing force.  After some difficult negotiations, although the Japanese army still refused to attack, they finally pulled out a division from the Kuomintang army loyal to the Nanjing National Government and boarded a ship from Nantong, Jiangsu Province, preparing to support the Ningbo battlefield by sea.

    But the problem is that these Kuomintang troops who were loyal to Wang Jingwei's government were actually hiding something secret. After landing in Ningbo, they did not obey the order and went to the battlefield. Instead, they directly launched a surprise attack on Yu Jishi's headquarters in an attempt to use force to defeat Chiang Kai-shek.  Seizing power from direct descendants!

    Yu Jishi was caught off guard and was immediately besieged in his headquarters. He had no choice but to direct a small number of guards to resist desperately, while trying his best to contact the US military to mediate the conflict. At the same time, he frantically used radio to call anyone who could be contacted.  The frontline troops were asked to immediately break away from the battle and turn around to return to Ningbo to rescue them In the end, after experiencing some indescribable melee and turmoil, the internal strife was finally suppressed, but the entire "Sino-US coalition"  The battle line has also collapsed, and the remaining Kuomintang troops in eastern Zhejiang have also fallen into a state of disintegration and destruction, while the Bolsheviks' red flag of sickle and hammer has once again been planted on the outskirts of Ningbo City.
