I really came here to fight against Japan

The 40th Division defending the right side of the mountain pass began to move closer to the headquarters of the 25th Army to their east.

The 108th Division directly opposite the New Fourth Army was facing the main force of the military headquarters.

These days, they have been annoyed by the arrogance and relentless pressure of the national army, which has made them very angry.

Now with the firepower support of the Guard Division, they drove the 108th Division three miles away in one breath.

The commander of the 108th Division of the National Army was so angry that he jumped up and down and cursed.

"This New Fourth Army is really going too far. How big of a grudge do they have against me?

With the way they are chasing us, are they planning to drive my 108th Division into the Yangtze River?"

These words really woke him up from his dream, and his chief of staff reacted.

"Commander, you said that the New Fourth Army headquarters has been chasing us and attacking us.

Is it because we blocked their way to cross the Yangtze River to the north?"

The commander of the 108th Division of the National Army reacted immediately and cursed himself as a fool.

"Order the entire division to immediately retreat five kilometers to the west and establish a new line of defense there to prevent the New Fourth Army from attacking the temporary capital."

The commander of the 108th Division gave such a bizarre reason for retreat that the chief of staff praised him for his cleverness.

This way, he could avoid the pursuit of the New Fourth Army and find a reason to escape.

You can also express your loyalty to the attendant room, which is killing three birds with one stone.

Our teacher is really a smart guy. I need to learn more from him.

In this way, the troops of the 108th Division of the National Army cleared the way.

The New Fourth Army troops chasing behind them really no longer paid any attention to them.

Instead, they marched in multiple columns along a five-kilometer-wide plain, walked twenty kilometers to the north, and then headed east.

This breakout, relying on the initial tactical deception and sudden attack, successfully disrupted the deployment of the National Army.

Because the incident happened suddenly, the more than 100,000 national troops were unable to resist.

The main force of the New Fourth Army headquarters wiped out more than 5,000 Kuomintang troops at the cost of "sacrificing" one person.

This achieved a strategic shift, allowing them to move eastward calmly towards northern Jiangsu.

Just as they were exchanging fire with the Kuomintang army, a mini-submarine was parked on the south bank of the Yangtze River.

The driver inside began to use the telegraph machine to send a nationwide telegram signed by the army commander.

Then he closed the hatch and slowly sank, and finally disappeared before dawn.

This is the miniature submarine that Song Wenwan specially arranged for the Navy Special Company.

The driver had only one task, which was to send a message to notify the whole country.

Exposing the conspiracy of the Secretariat of the Temporary Capital to pretend to cross the river and actually destroy the New Fourth Army.

It was revealed that the attendant room of the temporary capital, at the critical moment of the survival of the Chinese nation, wielded the butcher knife against the anti-Japanese friendly forces.

There is more earnestness and persuasion than harshness in the words.

This is also Song Wenwan's opinion. After all, Tiejun got the upper hand this time.

Given Peidu's petty character, Song Wenwan was really afraid that she would make him angry again and cause him harm.

In the early morning of January 2 of that year, a sudden telegram was sent to the whole country, shocking everyone.

"For your information, the Yunling Iron Army Headquarters, following the orders of the Imperial Guards, will set out to cross the Yangtze River on January 2."

Attendant’s Room: It’s true that I asked you to set off at number two, but I didn’t ask you to set off at midnight.

"At 3:15 a.m., our Iron Army headquarters was suddenly attacked by the rebels when passing through the exit of the Wanbu mountain area."

Attendant's Room: What sudden attack? Who attacked whom first?

What else are you talking about? You were attacked by "rebels". The word "rebels" is clearly my word!

“When our army arrived at the exit of the Wanbu mountain area, we discovered something unusual there.

The rebel forces there had already set up positions to block our army's passage.

Bunkers, watchtowers, and circular fortifications are everywhere.”

Attendant’s Room: Everyone knows that these fortifications cannot be built without ten days or half a month.

This kind of thing is really hard to explain to the Chinese people, as if we had already prepared to take action against the Iron Army.

But, putting aside the facts, are you, the Iron Army, not at fault in this matter?

Is it necessary for you to describe the fortifications we have prepared in advance so clearly?

“After we revealed our identities and produced the handwritten warrant issued by the attendant room of the imperial court,

Not only did this group of rebels not allow us to pass, they also brazenly launched an attack on our Iron Army and its subordinate units.

At this point, this group of rebels finally fired the first shot in their betrayal of the National Government and the National Revolution.

Newly-formed Seventh Division: Is there any justice in this world? What are you talking about?

We were able to fire every shot, but the Iron Army killed or wounded more than 2,000 people.

There were still twenty or so brothers from the New Seventh Division who escaped from the tent without clothes.

When they were found that afternoon, they had already been frozen to death, oooo…

"Our iron army soldiers fought bravely and fought desperately, resulting in countless casualties among our military personnel.

Many of the limited weapons and ammunition were also left behind, which was a heavy loss.”

The 108th National Army Division: You still have numerous casualties? You still have heavy losses?

So whose troops were chasing us and attacking us just now?

New Seventh Division: That’s right, you only left one corpse, where did the countless ones come from?

Could it be that the real name of this corpse is "Countless"?

The 40th Division of the National Army: Haha, in this ambush, our 40th Division is the only winner among the National Army.

The bodies of the Iron Army soldiers were found by our people from the 40th Division.

The weapons and equipment "left behind" by the Iron Army Headquarters were also found by our 40th Division.

There were a total of twenty Japanese Type 82 mortars, and there were a hundred boxes of shells alone.

There were more than twenty Type 99 and Type 92 rifles, and four boxes of matching bullets.

It seems that the Iron Army headquarters abandoned all heavy weapons in order to break out.

The New Fourth Army lost all its heavy weapons, which reduced their combat effectiveness.

Such a brilliant victory was acceptable and I had to report to the old man in the attendant's room.

Song Wenwan: You guys in the 40th Division should just be happy!

If we don't prepare some benefits for you, how can you get a reason not to pursue the New Fourth Army?

"After my iron army breaks through the encirclement, we will learn about it from the rebel prisoners.

This rebel force came from the Sichuan Army, the newly formed 7th Division of the 50th Army.

I seriously suspect that this rebel unit, the New Seventh Division, including the 50th Army, has defected to the South Puppet Regime. I hope the attendant office will conduct a thorough investigation. "

New Seventh Division: Why do you mention our New Seventh Division again? Is our New Seventh Division raised by a stepmother?

Song Wenwan: Why are you mentioned again? Why are you called rebels?

Why does my training base in Gannan never accept people from your 50th Army?

Have you never had such a small number in your hearts?

Other Sichuan Army troops can follow us to establish good relations with northern Shaanxi.

There are only a bunch of you scum in the Sichuan Army. You always go to stir up friction with northern Shaanxi for no reason. Who else should I deal with if not you?

Attendant’s Room: According to what you, the Iron Army, said, I am speechless.

It would be fine if I had gained an advantage, but now I have lost many soldiers and generals, and I have suffered a great loss!

If it really doesn't work, we can only let the newly formed Seventh Division go out and take the blame for everyone.
