In a small county town near the Taihang Mountains, there is a national army headquarters. A colonel of the national army was frowning. As he puffed away, the cigarette butts in the ashtray on the table had piled up into a small mountain. More than a month ago, the national army colonel began to secretly contact the Japanese and prepare to defect to the Japanese. The colonel's position was not firm, and the situation of the war of resistance was bleak. Little Japan occupied most of the cities in North China. Without military pay and ammunition supplies for a long time, the colonel commander of the national army prepared to take his own The troops defected to the Japanese. After the Anti-Japanese War entered the stalemate stage, Little Japan used strategic offensives as a supplement and political inducement as the main strategy. Many national troops who were in a difficult situation and whose stance was not firm defected to the Japanese army and turned into puppet troops. This phenomenon is not uncommon across the country. In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, many troops who actively resisted Japan defected to the Japanese within one or two years. The colonel of the National Army squeezed out the last cigarette butt in the ashtray, then picked up the newspaper on his desk and read it for a long time. Finally, he made a decision in his heart, and the expression on his face gradually became determined. This newspaper reported on the recovery of Shanghai in a full page with pictures and texts. There were even many close-ups of the soldiers and troops of the newly formed 6th Army, tanks and armor, and large-caliber howitzers. On paper. "It seems that little Japan is just like this. It is not as powerful as imagined. It is hard to say clearly who will win." After thinking about this, the colonel leader shouted loudly to the door: "Come here!" The adjutant walked in quickly, stood at attention, and said respectfully: "Commander, what's the matter?" "Shoot Xiaoye and others to death.In addition, tell all brothers to enter a fighting state to prevent the retaliatory attack of Little Japan. " Ono is naturally a young Japanese officer. He came over yesterday to discuss surrender with the national army. The adjutant was surprised when his regiment commander issued such an order. However, he saw the look on his regiment commander's face. Perseverance, with a little peace of mind, he immediately went out to deliver the order. Obviously, from the bottom of his heart, this adjutant did not want to surrender to the Japanese and become a traitor. This situation happened in several national army units across the country, and some of them had secretly communicated with the Japanese. The National Army troops who had agreed to surrender began to repent and strengthened their stance on the war of resistance. Some National Army troops who had recently surrendered to the Japanese began to secretly regret it. In an ordinary military camp on the south bank of the Yangtze River, dozens of National Army troops. The officers and soldiers were gathering together, reading a newspaper with relish. Although some of these national soldiers did not know a lot of Chinese characters, the newspaper had a lot of pictures, and through the pictures and guessing, you could know what was going on. A captain of the national army who was holding the newspaper read it for a long time and handed it to another second lieutenant of the national army who stretched his neck next to him. He said to everyone with emotion: "Brothers, the real man of the new 6th Army, He did what any man would want to do, annihilated hundreds of thousands of little Japs and liberated Shanghai. " "Company Commander, let's be real men for once and have a good fight with the little devil. "The captain waved his fist vigorously and said loudly: "Brothers, don't worry, sooner or later we will have a battle with the little devils and show the prestige of our Chinese men. " In the past few days, as a large number of newspapers have flowed into the vast military camps, many officers and soldiers of the Nationalist Army admire the new 6th Army from the bottom of their hearts. Not only are everyone proud of the new 6th Army, but at the same time, their determination to resist Japan is even stronger. Chongqing , the official residence of Chairman Chiang Kai-shek. After reading a newspaper sent by the commander of the bodyguard Wang Shihe, Chiang Kai-shek felt as if he had knocked over a five-flavor bottle. He let out a long sigh and said: "Shihe, the newly formed 6th Army did something. We have always wanted to do the big thing but have never been able to do it, annihilating so many small Japanese and recovering the big city of Shanghai. " After saying that, Lao Jiang slowly closed his eyes. His thoughts seemed to go back a few years ago, to the Battle of Songhu in 1937. After a long time, Lao Jiang came back to his senses from the war-torn thoughts and looked at himself. Wang Shihe, a close confidant, said: "Shihe, how should we reward the newly formed 6th Army for its great achievements? ¡± People all over the country know that the newly formed 6th Army severely damaged the Central China Front Army, annihilated so many little Japs, demonstrated the prestige of the Chinese soldiers, and also the confidence of the Chinese people in resisting Japan, and even liberated Shanghai. If we don¡¯t give it a certain reward, , someone must have said something behind his back, and Lao Jiang could not afford to lose his face. Wang Shihe was also a well-rounded person. He did not answer Lao Jiang directly, but said: "Chairman, we have just received the new 6th Army's notice. The telegram stated that the newly formed Sixth Army was ready to once again support the central government with a large number of weapons and equipment, as well as a batch of medicine and food. " "good! "Lao Jiang nodded. At present, after the war of resistance has entered a stalemate, the supply of the national army is becoming increasingly difficult, especially after the loss of a large number of arsenals, weapons and ammunition have already encountered difficulties. Lao Jiang was naturally very happy when he heard the news. " This Ye Feng is also a smart man. Let's do this. You personally draft a telegram to commend the newly formed 6th Army. At the same time, award the new 6th Army the title of 'Iron Army' and the 43rd Group Army of the new 6th Army. With immediate effect, the newly formed 6th Army will be expanded into the 43rd Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army. " Hearing this, Wang Shihe was full of astonishment and murmured, Iron Army, the 43rd Army After a long time, Wang Shihe suddenly woke up and secretly thought that he had just lost his temper. He immediately apologized and said: "Chairman, you are really Gao Ming, this way, everyone is happy. " Lao Jiang only issued a commendation order and gave an official designation, but did not pay anything practical. No wonder Wang Shihe admired Lao Jiang's brilliance. " Lao Jiang seems that awarding the newly formed 6th Army the title of "Iron Army" will surely The newly formed 6th Army was pushed to the forefront, and the 43rd Army was awarded the designation, which completely pushed the newly formed 6th Army to the top. The old Jiang knew this well. , Lao Jiang did not expect that with the expansion of the newly formed 6th Army into the 43rd Army, Ye Feng's army would completely turn into a towering tree. Even a Category 12 typhoon would not be able to touch it at all. For Ye Feng, all he wanted was this number, achieving such great results, and regaining Shanghai. Ye Feng never wanted to get anything from Chiang Kai-shek. Ye Feng had sufficient funds, weapons and ammunition, and all kinds of talents. Nothing is missing. If there is anything missing, it is a number, an expanded number.The newly formed 6th Army was under the jurisdiction of the navy, army and air force, with a number of hundreds of thousands. It had long exceeded the size of an army in terms of number and size. At this time, the designation assigned to the newly formed 6th Army Group was none other than Ye Feng hopes. The designation of the 43rd Army came very timely!
