At 7:35 on December 23, Shanghai People’s Hospital.
At this time, Matsui Iwane had just woken up, and he received the most severe rebuke from the mainland. And if it weren't for the temporary coaching change, which would have an impact on morale, I'm afraid Matsui Iwane would have been taken down long ago.
And Matsui Iwane also understood that if he could no longer produce some decent results, he would be relegated to the sidelines just like he was before.
He didn't want to taste that taste again.
He sat up from the hospital bed and went back to the headquarters.
His secretary quickly stopped him: "Sir, you have just escaped from life-threatening danger and can no longer work."
Matsui Iwane sighed and said: "I don't want to either, but there are so many things waiting for me to do, how can I sleep? Let the staff officers from the headquarters return to the headquarters immediately. We currently need to solve two problems. Two problems, one is the problem of insufficient troops, and the other is the arms issue in Yangzhou. There is also our aircraft. I have explained the situation to the headquarters a long time ago, but the aircraft we need most have not been delivered yet. "
The secretary thought for a while and said: "Your Excellency, our homeland is far away from here, and the factions in the cabinet are complicated. If we want to achieve our goal more quickly, we still need the help of the prince.
And I just received information that this prince is dispatching a regiment of imperial troops from the mainland to Shanghai. It seems that he really wants to do something big in China. "
Matsui Iwane shook his head and said: "He just acted on a whim. He has never seen a real battlefield at all. He just found it interesting for a moment. And he went to the front line, which is what worries me the most. Once he appears Under any circumstances, we can only commit seppuku.
In this way, if you immediately send a telegram to the mainland, it means that the current war situation in China is still unclear, and it will be very dangerous for the Prince of Beibai to stay in China. If he really wants to hunt in China, he must at least wait until the war situation stabilizes, otherwise I cannot afford this responsibility. "
The secretary bowed and said: "I understand. I will send electricity to the mainland to explain the situation. But please also take a break. Many of the staff officers from the headquarters are not at the headquarters. I need time to find them all."
"Baga, these people."
Matsui Iwane was very angry because at such a time, they still didn't stay at the headquarters, but went out one by one to have fun.
At the same time, the secretary bowed again and went to generate electricity locally.
But he couldn't go by Matsui Iwane's original words, because that would be equivalent to saying that Matsui Iwane was shirking responsibility.
Therefore, this is also his duty as secretary. He must not only express Matsui Iwane's suggestions, but also speak tactfully. He must also explain to the headquarters that the reason why Commander Matsui did this is for the sake of Prince Beibai. Safety considerations.
Therefore, not just anyone can do the job of a secretary. What is needed is at least someone who understands the officer's intentions and can adapt accordingly.
················
At the same time, a grand celebration banquet was being held in Tianchang Town.
Of course, it is also the celebration of the Dragon Boat Festival.
After the triumphant return of the Dragon Boat Festival, news of his victory in Shanghai has begun to ferment.
The first one to get the news was naturally the military commander. Director Wang and Wang Zhongxin of the military commander's Shanghai office jointly reported the results of this battle.
In other words, although these two people are also greedy for money, they have not forgotten their country and their responsibilities. They have no intention of absconding with money like Xu Bowen, and they want to work hard to resolve the conflict between Juntong and Dragon Boat Festival. .
Although they also knew the consequences of doing so and went against Boss Dai's wishes. But it is undeniable that after they experienced this action, everyone felt a sense of national pride sincerely in their hearts.
That is their pride as Chinese. And in their hearts, a strong desire for victory emerged.
They couldn't suppress this desire at all, it was like a raging fire, burning their whole bodies.
So this time, they unanimously gave the highest praise to this operation and explained that Duanwu has no ambitions and is very kind-hearted. He will definitely be the best partner of the military in the future.
When Boss Dai received this telegram, he felt mixed in his heart. He thought about his previous conflict with Dragon Boat Festival, which was just because of a little profit, and there was Wang Chuyi instigating it, so if he really wanted to If he fought to the death over such a trivial matter, he would risk offending the Chairman.
Boss Dai thought about it and realized that this was not cost-effective. At worst, he could just report it truthfully. Don't say too much, don't say too little either. Just do whatever the Chairman says.
Thinking of this, Boss Dai drove to the Presidential Palace and reported to the Chairman of the Standing Committee of the Communist Party of China, detailing the details of the Dragon Boat Festival killing of Japanese swordsman masters and causing a riot in Shanghai.
It turned out that the chairman had already known the news of the Dragon Boat Festival victory, but the relevant details were difficult to figure out.
Because the little devil is not a fool, there are special agents in Shanghai who are responsible for monitoring radio stations.
Therefore, whether the military commander or the central commander wants to send out the message completely, he needs to change several reporting locations in succession.
Therefore, it is precisely because of this that Dragon Boat Festival's actions in Shanghai have only now been fully disclosed.
Boss Dai was spitting like a storyteller.
The chairman was overjoyed after hearing this. He even stood up from the sofa when he heard the wonderful thing.
"Okay, okay, it's enough for me in China to have this son. I want to reward him. By the way, his safety is the most important now. You go and pass my order to the troops closest to Shanghai to kill the Dragon Boat Festival at all costs." Save me.
This time, he has gained the prestige of us Chinese. I think it won’t be long before the whole world knows that we Chinese are not that easy to bully. "
The chairman of the committee was so happy that he ordered on the spot to immediately find out the location of the monkey cub, and then rescue him at all costs.
But at this time, Boss Dai thought for a while and said: "Commissioner, the pressure we are facing in North and Central China has not eased at all. The Japanese army is still pressing forward step by step, and especially the Jinpu line is facing The danger of being attacked from two sides by the Japanese army.
Li Zhongren, the commander of the Fifth War Zone, has sent several telegrams requesting support. The Gui Army, Sichuan Army, Northeastern Army and the original Zhili Clan, Lu Clan, etc. These troops lack supplies. At this time, it should be absolutely impossible for them to send troops.
What's more, General Li Zhongren in the fifth theater still has some festivals with the Dragon Boat Festival. I think that once you issue this order, they will find various reasons to shirk it. "
"Humph, this Li Zhongren is like a stone in a pit, smelly and hard. When he needs weapons and equipment, he thinks of me as the chairman of the committee, but if you ask him to do even the smallest thing, he can't handle it well."
The chairman was angry, but there was nothing he could do about Li Zhongren. Because Li Zhongren is not only a veteran, but also has heavy troops.
"Go and give him an order, saying that as long as he rescues Duanwu, I will find a way to send him weapons. Let him think about it, think about it!"
"Yes, commission!"
The chairman came up with a compromise. Boss Dai bowed in agreement and then went to deliver the order. I just didn’t expect that at this moment, Secretary Yang hurriedly ran in from the door and said: "Commitment, reservation, good news, the monkey cub has arrived in Tianchang Town!..."
