    The war situation in Guangxi was unfavorable. Chairman Chiang was furious and went to Liuzhou in person to supervise the war.

    Before boarding the plane, he repeatedly told Chen Cheng that the future of the Anti-Japanese War was related to the future of the Anti-Japanese War. Chen Jizu's uprising could not be missed. If necessary, he could take over the command of the 2nd Guerrilla Zone of the Third War Zone and rescue them at all costs.

    For Wang Jingwei, Master Chen, Gao Zongwu and Tao Xisheng are the three blockbusters.  Even if Chairman Chiang gave no more warnings, Chen Cheng would not dare to slack off.  To ensure nothing went wrong, even He Yingqin was kept in the dark, let alone the military commander and the central commander.

    Chen Hongzhen¡¯s arrival in Chongqing is also classified as top secret. He has not left the house since he returned to Liang Mansion from Huangshan the day before yesterday. Liang Mansion has also become the headquarters of the "Little Chairman". He will come here on time at six o'clock every night to listen to Liang Yugao's report.

    "Mr. Chen, are you still used to living here these two days? Yu Gao is not an outsider. If you need anything, just ask."

    There were still fifteen minutes left before the radio station was turned on. Chen Cheng greeted him again with the courtesy of a junior. Chen Hongzhen leaned on his crutch and said with a smile: "I miss you, sir. I'm very comfortable. Yu Gao also took good care of me. I really feel like I'm at home."  The feeling.¡±

    "That's good, that's good," Chen Cheng changed the topic and said with regret: "I don't know if you have read today's newspaper. The Nanyang condolences delegation is about to take place. The Overseas Chinese Affairs Council, the Overseas Chinese Affairs Department and the Ministry of Political Affairs are organizing the trip.  I'm so busy, but you have to live in such a simple place, I feel sorry for you."

    The Nanyang Condolence Mission was initiated by the famous overseas Chinese leader Tan Kah Kee. He called on various overseas Chinese relief organizations in Nanyang, the UK, the Netherlands, the United States and France to send representatives to form a group to return to the country to express condolences, and planned to hand over the newly raised 3.2 million yuan donation to the National Government.  As soon as the announcement was issued, it received enthusiastic response from all walks of life in Chongqing.

    Fujian Company has no interest in politics and has only cared about its own interests for more than a century. If Master Chen had not been in trouble and if his century-old foundation had not been in danger of being uprooted, Chen Hongzhen would not have spent so much money.

    Unlike their overseas Chinese leaders who do serious business, they prefer to keep a low profile.  Even without Mr. Chen, Fujian Company would not join in the fun.  Moreover, Chen Hongzhen was over seventy years old and had long taken these things lightly, so he waved his hand openly and said, "Mr. Chen is out of touch. Although we have lived overseas for a long time, we are descendants of Yan and Huang after all. Now that the country is facing a national crisis, it is our duty to contribute money and efforts."  Yes, it¡¯s not worth mentioning.¡±

    To build the Chinese section of the Burma Highway, the Ministry of Finance only allocated two million yuan.  They also donated more than two million yuan one after another, which is nothing to mention.  Chen Cheng was so moved that he put down his tea cup and sighed: "I think Chen Bijun is also from Penang Island, but he helps the tyrants to do evil and is willing to work as a tiger. It's really heartbreaking."

    "Jun seat," just as he was talking, Liang Yugao walked in with a serious expression, holding a telegram, "Chen Bu sent an urgent message that the Japanese army was mixed into one part of the 11th Brigade, one part of each of the 15th and 17th Divisions, a total of four  More than a thousand people will launch an attack on the troops in the 2nd Guerrilla Zone of our Third Theater Zone at noon tomorrow, and the attack troops are gradually entering the designated positions. "

    Leng Xin gathered troops to coordinate the central corps of the third theater attacking Datong and Guichi, as well as the left and right wing corps attacking Dongliu, Hukou, Wuhu, and Datong respectively, in an attempt to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao, and reduce the pressure on the frontal battlefield.  Unexpectedly, the Japanese were lured in before the assembly was completed.

    Chen Cheng realized the seriousness of the problem. As he walked towards the desk with the map spread out, he ordered firmly: "Send a report to Chief Gu immediately and ask him to adjust his deployment quickly. We must not fight the Japanese at this time."

    "It's too late," Liang Yugao shook his head, "The headquarters of the Thirteenth Army has ordered Qiu Ying, Xie Ying, and Xie Ying of Chen's First Regiment and the First Battalion of Second Regiment to rush to Benniu, Hukeng, and Ma Kang respectively to take over the defense. Even if the second guerrilla  The 40th, 52nd, and 63rd Divisions and the 33rd Independent Brigade of the District have withdrawn from Wunan, and the Japanese army will also conduct a sweep of the area."

    ?? Mopping up is the first step. After the sweeping is completed, troops must be sent to stay behind. This means that Mr. Chen¡¯s little family fortune is likely to be torn into pieces and lose its autonomy like Ren Yuandao¡¯s appeasement army.  Chen Cheng suddenly took a breath when he thought that the Japs were gathering heavily and that taking action now was tantamount to seeking death.

    Little did Chen Hongzhen know that what Young Master Chen said was well-trained and well-equipped, but compared to ordinary puppet troops or miscellaneous troops, he suddenly said, "There are only more than 4,000 Japanese. If we meet on a narrow road, the brave will win, so just fight."  !¡±

    "It's not as simple as you always think."

    Chen Cheng let out a long sigh and said with a helpless smile: "The 40th, 52nd, 63rd Divisions and the 33rd Independent Brigade have stayed behind enemy lines for a long time, with outdated equipment, insufficient ammunition, and even insufficient strength. At best, they can only withstand the Japanese attack.  I can¡¯t help my grandnephew.¡±

    After doing it over and over again, Chen Jiajun was still not included.

    Chen Hongzhen felt very uncomfortable. After thinking about it for a while, he suddenly asked: "Xiannephew, what do you think of your step-grandfather?"?

    What shocked Chen Cheng was that Liang Yugao actually whispered: "My grandnephew also realized that delaying it any longer was not an option, and suggested that General Leng's troops should hold on to the line from Huangli to Dong'an for three days, and wait for him to complete the final deployment before joining forces with the outside.  Encircle and annihilate the enemies on the northern front including the 11th Brigade Headquarters."

    The Gaoqiao was led between Wuhu Lake and Changdang Lake, and the openings at the north and south ends were sealed, forming an encirclement situation.  However, the battlefield is too close to the Beijing-Shanghai line, and the Japanese can get reinforcements from Nanjing and Wuxi at any time. Chen Cheng shook his head, "While encircling the enemy, it is also easy to be encircled by the enemy. If you are not careful, the entire army will be annihilated. This  The plan is too risky."

    "Jun Zuo, Chen Bu has already considered this."

    Liang Yugao did not want to miss this opportunity for the Nanyang Chinese to show their faces. He pointed at the map and introduced: "The Chen Department has a very detailed plan. The reason why Chief Leng is asked to hold on for three days is not to weaken Takahashi's energy, but to use these precious three days."  Time is calm to arrange for reinforcements, and at the same time, I am waiting for someone.¡±

    "who?"

    "Itagaki Seishiro."

    Chen Cheng was confused and couldn't help blurting out: "What do you mean?"

    "Brigade Commander Chen has received reliable information. Itagaki is going to Shanghai to meet with Wang Ni in the next two days. There are not many Wujin defenders to begin with, and now they have sent half of them to Wunan to 'mopping up'. For Chen's department guarding the Beijing-Shanghai line,  This is undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.¡±

    "real?"

    ¡°That¡¯s what the telegram said.¡±

    Looking at his suspicious look, Liang Yugao added, "Junzuo, from the battle to encircle and annihilate Zhang Shaohua's troops, it can be clearly seen that the Chen Division's well-trained training is by no means an unwarranted reputation. What's more, the officers and soldiers under his troops are not battle-hardened.  The ** veteran is a former member of the Broadsword Society who is familiar with the environment. He has the right time, place and people. "

    The opportunity is rare, and it would be a lie to say that you are not tempted.  But when he thought that the Lengbu had to withstand the strong attack of the enemies on the northern front, and also dedicate a force to block the enemies on the eastern front, the casualties would definitely be huge. Chen Cheng could not make up his mind.

    What time has it been? I¡¯m still hesitating.

    Chen Hongzhen was very anxious and could not interfere in other people's military affairs, so he could only say meaningfully: "It's good that I am beating a rabbit with a straw, and I have not lost the face of the Yingchuan Hall of the Chen family."

    How could Chen Cheng not hear the implication of his words? He weighed it again and resolutely ordered: "Yugao, call back to Chen Bu to agree to his battle plan and keep in touch with him. I will go to the attendant's room now. If you have anything to do, please call me."  Call over there.¡±

    "Yes, Junzuo!"

    An hour later, Leng Xin, who had just finished a combat meeting with Deputy Commander Liu Jianming and Chief of Staff Lu Bochuan, received urgent telegrams from Chairman Chiang, Chen Cheng, and Commander-in-Chief of the Third War Zone Gu Zhutong.

    The contents were similar, requiring them to hold on for three days. The chief of staff turned pale, put down the telegram and said worriedly: "Commander, the commission is putting us on the fire."

    Just last month, Chairman Chiang ordered the establishment of a second column to advance south of the Yangtze River, and appointed Leng Xin as the commander of the column, commander of the 63rd Division, and director of the Jiangnan Administration.  The jurisdiction extends to Taihu Lake in the east and the Yangtze River in the west and north, including most areas in southern Jiangsu and southern Anhui, as well as Changxing, Zhejiang.

    The military and political affairs are in control, and they exercise the powers of the provincial government on behalf of the provincial government. The power is not small.

    However, for Leng Xin, this series of official titles is really nothing.  He was a first-generation student in Huangpu and a main backbone of the Sun Literature Society. In the 16th year of the Republic of China, he won the trust of Chiang Kai-shek. When Ninghan merged with Ninghan, the chairman of the Standing Committee handed over the power of expenditure to him when he resigned.

    The moon is waxing and waning, and the sky is unpredictable.

    From then on, he fell out of favor and was not promoted to major general until the July 7th Incident.  During the Battle of Wuhan, his 52nd Division was defeated again. If it weren't for He Yingqin's care and the fellow countryman Gu Zhutong, the commander of the Third War Zone, he would still be training new soldiers in Jiangshan, Zhejiang.

    Because of this, he did not dare to be as cowardly as the other "Yellow Jackets". He took the message and looked at it again, and said coldly: "It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders, so carry out the orders."
