Suzhou is restored!
The news quickly spread from Suzhou to surrounding cities.
Unlike the first restoration of the state, the second restoration has an even different meaning.
This was after the Wang Puppet regime began to carry out the Qingxiang Movement with all its strength, the Military Command Bureau struck out hard and gave them a resounding slap!
The national flag is raised in Suzhou.
Several officers wearing national army uniforms solemnly saluted the national flag!
And all this happened right under the noses of the Japanese.
Surrounding Suzhou City are countless Japanese and puppet troops.
What a restoration this is!
And these news, including photos, were sent out immediately through the "Peace News".
Shanghai was a sensation.
When they got the news, major and small newspapers worked overtime and quickly spread the news of Suzhou's second recovery to all parts of the country!
A nationwide sensation!
The streets of Chongqing are filled with cheers!
Numerous parades began to appear!
Wuxi was restored, Changzhou was restored, Changshu was restored!
Then, Suzhou was restored!
This is simply a miracle!
In the Meng Mansion in Chongqing, several women pointed to the photo in the newspaper with only the back and said to the children:
"Look, this is your father, Meng Shaoyuan!"
…
Within a few hours after Suzhou was regained for the second time, Meng Shaoyuan, director of the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai Provincial Supervision Office of the Military Unification Bureau, delivered a speech on Guanqian Street in front of tens of thousands of Suzhou citizens, saying "the war of resistance must be won."
This speech lasted no more than ten minutes.
But this made the Japanese and puppets who had just received a slap in the face receive another loud slap on the other side of the face!
This is a rather interesting scene.
The Japanese army still has military forces in Suzhou.
But they all huddled in the military police headquarters.
Leaving the warning range of the Japanese and puppets, the entire Suzhou became almost undefended and dominated by resistance organizations.
Xian Suping continued to faithfully record this speech and published it in the "Peace News" as soon as possible.
He has to live.
As for how he will be settled by Qiu Hou?
That's not something he can consider now.
Meng Shaoyuan actually only prepared a five-minute speech, but during his speech, he was interrupted several times by fanatical people with enthusiastic applause and cheers.
The cry of "long live" is always heard.
Once the suppressed and humiliating emotions are released, this power is undoubtedly huge!
The Japanese army could capture Suzhou at any time.
But at this time, the Chinese are the real and eternal masters of this city!
The scene was almost out of control.
In the eyes of all the Chinese people present, Meng Shaoyuan, who gave the speech, is undoubtedly a well-deserved national hero!
It took a lot of effort for the guards like Li Zhifeng to escort Meng Shaoyuan out of the speech venue.
"The Qingxiang troops were held back by the Fourth Route Army and were unable to reinforce." Upon seeing Meng Shaoyuan, Wu Jingyi immediately stepped forward and said, "Wuxi, Changzhou, and Changshu are also engaged in guerrilla warfare with the Japanese army, trying to buy us time. . The Japanese troops in Nanjing have begun to gather. As soon as possible, they can reach Suzhou tomorrow evening!"
"Be prepared to arrange a retreat."
Meng Shaoyuan was confident: "Notify Jiang Kang that our troops will begin to evacuate at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. They have completed their mission, please convey my condolences! At the same time, Wuxi, Changzhou, and Changshu were ordered to start breaking out tonight. The Japanese army's strength is insufficient. If there are more, we are still very confident of breaking through.”
Then he thought for a moment: "And Gu Wei and the Suzhou Station under his command should evacuate Suzhou immediately to avoid falling into the hands of the Japanese."
"Understood."
"Where is my teacher?" Meng Shaoyuan asked.
"He is punishing traitors there. This time he brought many students from the Taihu training base."
"Let the teacher also prepare to retreat."
Meng Shaoyuan was actually worried about someone at this time:
Meng Baifeng, my father!
Why is he going to jail?
Meng Shaoyuan already knew a rough idea from He Ruyi's mouth.
He knew that his father would have a way to escape.
Just what if?
Also, dear dad, what tricks are you playing there?
…
"Report, the Japanese army has broken through our front-line position, and our first, second, and third brigades have all engaged the enemy! The first group was violently attacked by the Japanese army and suffered heavy casualties!"
"Let them hold me back!" Commander Fang's eyes were fixed on the map: "Put the reserve team in for me!"
"yes!"
"Old Chen, the casualties are huge." Commander Fang moved his eyes away from the map: "Now, the last reserve team in my hand has been dispatched."
"But it still works."
Chen Wenshan said calmly: "In just a few days, taking advantage of the fact that the main force of the Japanese and puppet Qingxiang was dragged here by us, our guerrillas destroyed twelve Japanese and puppet strongholds, five Qingxiang headquarters, and Japanese bunkers. Two seats.”
"yes."
Just as Commander Fang was about to say something, a staff officer came in with a telegram in his hand: "Report, Suzhou telegram, they will retreat at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon!"
"OK."
Commander Fang breathed a long sigh of relief: "Meng Shaoyuan did a great job. Not only did he regain Suzhou, but he also created strong public opinion. This time, the Japanese and puppets have lost all their face. Order, our troops will hold on until 3pm tomorrow Click and evacuate the battlefield in an orderly manner!"
"Commander Fang."
Chen Wenshan suddenly said: "I have an idea, can I hold on for two more hours?"
Commander Fang was startled, then understood what he meant: "Old Chen, you mean we are here to help Suzhou gain two more hours of retreat time?"
Chen Wenshan nodded: "If we persist here for a while longer, we can hold off the Japanese and puppet troops for a while longer, and we can also make Suzhou further away from the Japanese and puppet troops."
"However, the Qingxiang troops have gradually formed an encirclement trend." Commander Fang's eyes fell on the map again: "The later we retreat, the more difficult it will be to break through!"
He was silent for a while, then suddenly turned around: "I am giving orders to the frontline commanders and fighters to hold the enemy back at all costs so that they cannot leave the battlefield. Fight until 6 pm tomorrow to break through!"
Originally, Chen Wenshan's suggestion was two hours.
But Commander Fang added another hour!
Commander Fang was full of pride: "These special agents can revive Suzhou for the second time. Can't we, Jiang Kang, hold off the Japanese and puppets for three more hours? I believe that our brave frontline commanders and fighters can do it!"
"Commander Fang, we are facing a formidable enemy. Let us unite as one and fight to the end." Chen Wenshan said happily: "I heard our comrades say that this Meng Shaoyuan has some abilities. I got along with him in Danyang and fought against the Japanese. He is It’s really unambiguous. It’s just that life is a little informal. This time, it can be regarded as our joining forces again.”
What he said was polite. Probably, I also want to save some face for the other party as much as possible.
Meng Shaoyuan is more than just a casual person in life? It is simply a model of shameless debauchery and moral corruption!
