Chapter 127 Fight! ! !
On January 1932, 1, after discussing with Wang Jingwei and Chiang Kai-shek, the newly appointed Premier Sun Ke sent an urgent telegram to Ma Deshang: "We should take the preservation of Shanghai's economic center as the premise, and only adopt a moderate attitude towards Japan's request. We should immediately convene all walks of life. For the sake of explanation, there must be no conflicts, causing the Shanghai stock market to be seized by violence."

On the same day, Minister of Military and Political Affairs He Yingqin also called Ma Deshang, reiterating that "the Shanghai stock market is our economic center, and we always deal with it peacefully and avoid conflicts."

On the afternoon of January 1, Ma Deshang, deputy commander-in-chief of the national sea, land and air forces and commander-in-chief of the Sixth Army, was accompanied by Shanghai Mayor Chen Tong and Third Army Commander Chen Changdong to inspect the defense of the Shanghai Zhabei area.

Boost morale and declare: The territory of the country will not give up an inch!
Faced with Ma Deshang's tough attitude, Japan has nothing to do.

On January 1932, 1, after Murai issued an ultimatum to the authorities in Shanghai, China.

Lu Mansion

Ma Deshang was discussing with Shanghai Mayor Chen Tong, Director of the Shanghai Security Bureau Ding Cao, and Third Army Commander Chen Changdong.

"Commander-in-Chief, the Japanese have given us an ultimatum, we..."

Chen Tong's breathing was a little rapid. Although he was sure that Ma Deshang was determined to fight the Japanese, he was a scholar after all, and he was a little nervous about the approaching war.

"How dare you give me an ultimatum, Chen Tong, you immediately draw up an ultimatum, saying that if the Japanese side does not give a satisfactory answer to our conditions, we will definitely take action."

Ma Deshang immediately issued an order.

".Yes."

Commander-in-Chief, you are worried that the war will not be fought. This is the first time I have seen you want to fight so much.

After Chen Tong went down to make arrangements, Ma Deshang turned his attention to Ding Cao and Chen Changdong, but finally asked Chen Changdong first.

"Chen Changdong, let me ask you a question, if you let your third army block Japan, can you do it?"

"Commander-in-Chief, my goal is to drive all the Japanese into the sea!"

Chen Changdong raised his head and chest, gave a military salute to Ma Deshang, and said loudly.

"Very well, don't put too much pressure on you. Zhang Lu's first army will arrive tonight. As your backup, not only them, you also have 400 million Shanghai compatriots behind you to cheer for you!"

Made Shang said seriously.

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief."

"Go to the army. Now you are their backbone. I will leave this battle to you. The goal is very clear. I must stop the Japanese. Of course, I can drive them into the sea. I am also very happy to see it. "

Chen Changdong gave Ma Deshang a military salute again, then turned and walked away.

"Acao, have you found the whereabouts of Yoshiko Kawashima and Ryuki Tanaka?"

As for the direct planners of the 'Japanese Monk Incident' and subsequent incidents, Ma Deshang will certainly not let them go.

"Longji Tanaka is hiding in the Japanese gathering place in the Hongkou area. The whereabouts of Yoshiko Kawashima are still being searched, but they will definitely be found before tonight."

Ding Cao said nervously.

"After you find them, you don't need to arrest them, just execute them directly, but take photos of their deaths and send them to major newspapers. Tomorrow, I will see the front pages of major newspapers reporting this matter."

Ma Deshang said expressionlessly.

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief."

"Commander-in-Chief, do we need to do something about Seishiro Itouge who is still in Japan?"

Ding Cao asked.

The special operations team of the Shanghai Security Bureau in Japan has been in a state of silence and is in a state of continuous development. It has not been discovered by the special high-level class under the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Japan.

"Let's save Ban Heng's life for a while, now is not the time to start the stumbling block plan."

Ma Deshan thought for a moment and said.

"Yes, I'm going to prepare now."

After Ding Cao received Han Li's instructions, he turned and left without staying too long.

At 11:30 p.m., Shanghai Mayor Chen Tong issued an ultimatum, and the Japanese army launched an attack on the Chinese garrison in Zhabei. Li Guodong, the 7th Division of the Third Army immediately resisted, and the Songhu War broke out!

At this time, the Japanese army, led by more than [-] armored vehicles, divided its troops into five groups and launched an attack from various intersections in Zhabei.

After receiving a report about the Japanese attack, Chen Changdong rushed to Zhenru Station overnight to set up a temporary headquarters.

After dawn on the 29th, under the cover of armored vehicles, the Japanese army launched continuous fierce attacks. Japanese planes also took off from the aircraft carrier "Notoro" and bombarded Zhabei and Nanshi indiscriminately. The flames of war spread rapidly.

A fighter formation belonging to the Shanghai Self-Defense Force also took off from the airport and launched a fierce air battle with Japanese aircraft to compete for air supremacy.

The 7th, 55th, and 56th regiments of the 57th Division of the garrison fought tenaciously against the Japanese attack. Under the cover of artillery fire, counterattacked the enemy in a timely manner and repelled the continuous Japanese attacks.

The entire battlefield was "extremely fierce", "the city was on fire everywhere, the flames filled the sky, and the battlefield was extremely miserable."

At around 10:30 in the morning, Japanese planes dropped bombs, and the General Factory of the Commercial Press and the Oriental Library were burned down. More than [-] volumes of books in the collection, including many rare ancient books, were burned.Under the cover of powerful artillery fire and armored vehicles, more than a thousand Japanese troops stormed the intersections of Baoshan Road and Qiujiang Road in an attempt to occupy Shanghai North Railway Station.The North Railway Station is a land transportation hub in Shanghai, and its gains and losses are related to the safety of the entire Zhabei.

At 29 o'clock in the afternoon on the 2th, the Japanese army took advantage of the fire to attack the North Station. A company of our garrison military police withdrew from the North Station after an hour of fierce fighting with the Japanese army.

At 29:17 on the 7th, the 56th Division withdrew the 57th, 58th, and 59th regiments to rest and replaced them with the 60th, 61th, and [-]st regiments to counterattack, recapture the North Station and Tiantong'an Station, and pursued the victory, and once captured the Japanese army in Shanghai. The Marine Corps Command forced the Japanese army to retreat to the east of North Sichuan Road and the south of Target Road.

The first Japanese attack ended in failure.

After the Japanese attack was frustrated, the British and American consuls came forward to mediate on the afternoon of the 29th, and the Chinese and Japanese armies reached an agreement to stop fighting at 29:20 on the night of the [-]th.

Ma Deshang knew that this was Japan's tactic of delaying troops and waiting for help. If the third army was ordered to launch a full-scale attack, all Japanese troops would be rolled into the sea within an hour. Pawns, he can eat more, and his first army is already in place, ready to attack at any time.

The Third Army also strengthened its deployment, urgently ordered the 8th Division to station in Nanxiang and Zhenru, and used the 9th Division as a reserve team, and the 7th Division was all put into the front line to strengthen defense and stand ready.
