Take Taobao to fight against Japan

In early April, the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government ordered Luo Zhuoying to command a total of about ten divisions in each of the Third Theater and the Ninth Theater to counterattack Nanchang.

The policy formulated is: "First attack the enemy along Nanxun with the main force, really cut off the enemy's contact, and then use one to directly attack Nanchang."

4月21日，反攻开始：第九战区卢汉集团军第184师和新编第10师向奉新日军发起攻击；第11师主力监视靖安日军，一部向滩溪挺进。

On the 23rd, the 32nd Army of Shangguan Yunxiang in the third theater sent the 16th Division, the 79th Division, the Fifth Reserve Division, and part of the Reserve 10th Division to cross the Fuhe River and attack in the direction of Nanchang. On the 24th, the Japanese army retreated to Fengxin.

Yu Jishi's army mainly attacked the Japanese army near Gao'an; Yu Jishi's army and Liu Duoquan's army each crossed the Jinjiang River to attack the Japanese army in Dacheng and Shengmi Street.

By the 26th, the 32nd Army had regained the branch street in Nanchang Southeast City and approached Nanchang.

Yu Jishi's army and Liu Duoquan's army recovered Gao'an, Dacheng and Shengmi Street, and once attacked Niuhang, while the Japanese retreated to the northeast of Gao'an.

Since then, the Ninth Theater troops have had difficulty making progress and are unable to cut off the Nanxun Line.

On the 27th, the Saito Division of the Japanese Army was supported by the Marine Corps and launched a counterattack.

The attack of Shangguan Yunxiang Group Army was blocked, and No. 20 Sixth Division was sent to join the battle.

On May 5, the airport on the east side of Nanchang and Nanchang Railway Station were conquered.

On the 7th, the Japanese army in Nanchang and the Nakai Division who came to reinforce them continued to counterattack with the cooperation of the air force.The Shangguan Yunxiang Group Army suffered heavy casualties. Lieutenant General Chen Anbao, commander of the No. 20 Ninth Army, was martyred and the attack was frustrated.

On the 9th, Chairman Jiang ordered the Huaxia Army to stop the counterattack, and the Battle of Nanchang ended.

1939年3月17日日军开始进攻吴城，日军第11军司令冈村宁次中将指挥3个师团在短期内击败了罗卓英指挥的第九战区右翼30几个师，日军3月27日便占领了南昌。

The Battle of Nanchang lasted for one and a half months, and finally ended with the defeat of the Chinese army.

This battle was the first battle since the Anti-Japanese War entered a stalemate. More than 5 Japanese troops were wiped out, and the Chinese army suffered nearly 10 casualties.

Although the Battle of Nanchang ended in failure, it made the whole world, especially the Japanese military authorities, realize that although the Japanese army occupied the three towns of Wuhan, they could neither force the Nationalist government to surrender, nor wiped out the main force of the Chinese army, let alone destroyed The will of the Chinese army and civilians to resist the war.

On May 1939, 5, the 11th Border Guard of the Mongolian Army waded from the west bank of Shanxi to the area east of the Haraha River to graze.

A group of soldiers from the 3rd Company of the Pseudo-Xing'an Guard Cavalry stationed at the Xilin Taolagai Outpost immediately shot and intercepted them, mounted their horses and chased them, and drove the Mongolian horse herdsmen and horses back to the west bank.

More than 7 cavalry from the 50th border post of the Mongolian Army captured the puppet Manchukuo Xilin Taolagai post in the disputed area, officially kicking off the prelude to the Battle of Nomonhan.

In April 1939, after occupying Nanchang, in order to eliminate the threat of the Huaxia Army in northern Hubei and southern Henan to Wuhan, Okamura Ningji began to deploy the Suizao Campaign, attempting to encircle and wipe out the main force of the fifth theater in Suizao County, Hubei. Northeast of Zaoyang.

In late April, Chairman Chiang heard that the Japanese army was gathering troops in northern Hubei, and immediately ordered Li Zongren to prepare for the battle, and ordered the first, third, and ninth theaters to respond.

The two sides are deployed and ready, and a life-and-death battle is about to be staged!

At the end of April, Otozo Yamada, the new commander of Japan's Central China Dispatch Army, approved Okamura's combat plan. Immediately, Okamura issued an attack order to the divisions in Jiangbei.

At dawn on May 5, the Japanese army divided into two groups, the 1rd, 16th, and No. [-] divisions and the [-]nd and [-]th cavalry brigades, etc., to attack Suixian and Zaoyang areas, and the battle of Suizao officially started.

Li Zongren, the commander-in-chief of China's fifth war zone, organized his troops into the left and right armies and the Jiang Defender Army for defense and counterattack.

In this battle, the Huaxia army had a large advantage in strength and was able to coordinate and cooperate, but the use of strength was not flexible enough, and it was once in a passive situation.

Afterwards, the soldiers of the whole army fought bloody battles until May 5, and the troops of the fifth theater successively recovered Zaoyang and Suixian counties.The Japanese army retreated to Zhongxiang and Yingshan, restored the pre-war situation, and the battle came to an end.

The Kuomintang army killed 1.3 enemy troops and more than 5000 Japanese corpses. Among them, Zhang Zizhong's right-wing corps annihilated more than 4500 Japanese troops.

The fifth war zone also paid a major sacrifice of 2.5, shattered the conspiracy of the Japanese army to advance westward, and consolidated the western Hubei barrier. In the end, the Japanese army failed to achieve the planned strategic goal.

On May 5, the freighter Charlotte, which departed from New York Harbor, finally arrived at Qingdao Wharf.

In addition to 50 Ford cars, oil, steel and other commodities, more than [-] overseas Chinese compatriots including Xia Houcheng, Shi Lanxin, Zhou Ping, and Hu Yaodong arrived on the same boat.

Thanks to the influence of giants such as Ford and Carnegie Steel, the U.S. government specially notified the Japanese government to open a commercial route between the U.S. and Qingdao.

Therefore, although the freighter Charlotte, flying the American flag and employing a large number of American sailors, attracted Japan's envy and covetousness, it went smoothly along the way, and the Japanese navy did not dare to stop and interrogate it when it saw it.

Although it took a long time and traveled for more than 50 days, it was worth everything to open this good route.

"It's finally here!"

"Almost not suffocated!"

"Finally made it through!"

"Hurry up and get off the boat!"

After arriving at Qingdao Port, the cargo ship Charlotte broke down and berthed on the shore. Passengers walked onto the pier from the deck one after another, and some sailors also disembarked and went ashore to get some air.

"Brothers, get ready to work!"

"Quick! Move more slickly!"

The port loading and unloading team that had been waiting for a long time began to enter the site to prepare for unloading.

"Dad, Mom, Zhou Ma, Liang Qiao, Su Xian, I'm here!"

Xia Yu excitedly waved at the crowd, and then ran over.

"Master and Madam, look, Xiao Yu is there!"

"Quick, let mom take a closer look!"

"Good girl! For more than a year, you have thought badly of us!"

Xia Houcheng, Shi Lanxin, and Zhou Ping's faces were full of joy and love, and they stared at Xia Yu with wide eyes, looking left and right, and they liked it very much.

"Wow, I haven't seen Xiao Yu for a year, you're getting more and more beautiful the longer you grow! I'm so envious of you, now you're a well-known heroine!"

"Xiaoyu, we are so happy to finally meet again! Do you know how much we have suffered along the way? We almost fainted!"

"Hey, I'm very, very happy that you can come! I guarantee that the hardships you have suffered are worth it, and I will take you to see this new world that you can't imagine in a while!"

"Hee hee, let's wait and see!"

The two girlfriends, Liang Qiao and Su Xian, were also extremely excited, hugging and hugging Xia Yu, who could not finish talking about their farewell hearts, it really was a scene of three women.

Chapter 532

"Let's go! I'll take you to eat something, let's talk about it later!"

After chatting for a while and taking a lot of photos, Xia Yu pointed to a restaurant not far away. Anyway, I took a long vacation and didn't have to worry about work. The most important task right now is to accompany my parents and girlfriends.

The port of Qingdao was originally relatively prosperous. After the Huaxia Huben Army recovered from the Japanese devils, they sent a large number of troops and construction personnel to guard Qingdao. They built military camps, coastal defense fortifications, and ports.

With the continuous investment of massive manpower and material resources, industries such as fishery, catering, and entertainment have also been promoted and become more and more active. In just two or three months, the popularity value has more than doubled compared to before!

"Okay! Don't say it, I'm really hungry!"

"We're almost throwing up on potatoes and slices of bread on the boat these days!"

"Today we have to taste the real taste of our Chinese cuisine!"

Xia Houcheng, Shi Lanxin and others nodded happily and walked towards the hotel with brisk steps.

"Hey, Xiaoyu, why are the characters on the restaurant's signboard different from the Chinese characters we learned?"

After approaching, Liang Qiao took a look at the hotel signboard in simplified Chinese characters, and turned around to ask a little confused: "How do you read these words? Is it called Donglaishun Hotel?"

"You are so smart, congratulations on getting the answer right!"

Xia Yu nodded with a smile, and then explained with Rong Youyan: "This is the simplified character invented by the chief, so that everyone can learn and promote Chinese characters better. The common people here praise our general. Zodiac is the reincarnation of Wenqu Xing!"

"Simplified characters? This name is very appropriate!"

"Well, it's really interesting! Although it's the first time I've seen such simplified characters, I can still recognize them!"

"Yeah, although it feels a bit strange, but it's really easy to recognize and write a lot!"

"Simplifying characters will definitely be a great innovation!"

Hearing these words, Xia Houcheng, Shi Lanxin, Liang Qiao and others praised her again and were deeply impressed.

Liang Qiao suddenly smiled and asked, "Xiaoyu, when will we meet Commander Yang? We have been looking forward to this moment in New York!"

"That's right! That's right! I've heard for a long time that Commander Yang is one of the most extraordinary men in the world. The reason we traveled thousands of miles back to China is to meet Commander Yang with our own eyes!"

Su Xian answered the words excitedly, there was no affair between men and women, it was purely a star chasing mode of worship.

"That's right, the Chief has given our family a new life. We also want to see the Chief as soon as possible, and thank him in person!"

Xia Houcheng and his wife also cast their eyes on Xia Yu. They had wanted to mention this for a long time after they got off the boat, but because they had endless things to say after the family reunion, they held back until now.

"Haha, don't be in a hurry! After we finish our meal and then return to Gaomi by car, we will naturally meet the chief executive! Let's go in and eat and drink first!"

Xia Yu smiled, and strode into the restaurant full of pride.

"Squid roll with coriander, sea cucumber with scallion, three shredded shark's fin, sweet and sour Yellow River carp, double crispy fried in oil, grilled abalone in original shell, braised prawn in oil, fish with vinegar pepper, Jiaodong four warm mix, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, mullet Egg soup, roasted duck in a pot, crispy chicken, yellow croaker tofu soup, yellow croaker in a pot, warm mandarin fish slices, Yipin tofu, white fungus in clear soup, give me a portion of them all!"

Having money is self-willedness. Xia Yu belongs to the civilian establishment of the army, and her salary is not low. In addition, she does not need to spend money on food and lodging. Basically, the money in the bank card can only be withdrawn. So far, she has saved more than 1200 yuan. RMB.

So as soon as he entered the restaurant, Xia Yu picked up the menu and clicked frantically. It was the basic operation of local tyrants to buy expensive or not.

Being rich and not returning home is like traveling at night in brocade clothes. No matter how much success there is, it will not be complete if no one shares it. Xia Yu just wants to share her joy, pride and success with her relatives. She really doesn't care how much she spends.

"Wow, Xiao Yu, can we finish all these dishes?"

"Yeah, don't waste too much! How much does it cost!"

"Yeah, as long as you have something to say! How can we eat so much food!"

Xia Houcheng, Shi Lanxin, Zhou Ping, Liang Qiao, and Su Xian all shook their heads at Xia Yu. Even though they didn't know the prices in China, they knew it just from the high-end decoration of this restaurant and the list of nice dishes. The money spent on this meal will definitely be a fortune!

"Don't worry! It's not short of money! I'm happy today, let's eat and drink to my heart's content!"

Xia Yu smiled without any panic, and then said loudly: "Boss, have another bottle of Moutai and another bottle of French red wine!"

"Cough, cough, cough!"

"..."

Xia Houcheng and the others stared wide-eyed, really didn't know what to say, they didn't know what was going on, so they didn't dare to ask more questions.

"Wow! It's so delicious! It really is our Huaxia cuisine!"

"It's the right time! This trip is the right time! When the sky returns, let those guys who are afraid of dragons and tigers all regret it to death!"

"Hey, as long as everyone is happy!"

A meal cost 96.5 yuan, equivalent to two months' wages of an ordinary worker. Naturally, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, eating glibly, and feeling extremely comfortable from inside to outside.

After eating and walking out of the restaurant, Xia Yu took everyone for a walk along the pier to digest food. Anyway, I have a car at home, so I can go back to Gaomi anytime, so there is no need to panic!

As he was walking, Liang Qiao suddenly saw an extremely majestic fort in the distance, and his eyes brightened immediately: "Xiaoyu, can we go over there and have a look? It's such a big fort, it looks so majestic, we still This is the first time I have seen such a military building!"

For his own safety, Yang Fan tried his best to exhaust all kinds of moves, and the manpower, material and financial resources he spent were really hard to measure.

After several months of full-scale construction and construction, the entire coastal defense line of Shandong Peninsula was built into an iron barrel array by Yang Fan. It not only has a strict radar network, but also has a huge coastal defense artillery firepower network with super long range, and dense anti-aircraft guns. There is also an extremely strong anti-beach landing coastal fortification line.

Weihaiwei, Yantai, Qingdao and other important ports and airports each stationed an air force squadron responsible for daily patrols and vigilance.

In addition, there are more heavy troops guarding the coastal defense line, which can be described as impenetrable.

After half a year of reinforcement and thickening at most, Yang Fan dared to pat his chest and said: In the current era, even if the Japanese devils try their best, they don't want to break through the "Magino Coastal Defense Line" they have carefully built.

Even if the U.S. fleet with full firepower wanted to attack the coastal defense line of the Shandong Peninsula, it would have to be smashed, and it would be impossible to make a difference without paying an unbearable price.

After having this impregnable rear base, Yang Fan can further expand his power and come up with more powerful offensive methods and armed forces.

Chapter 533 The Dream of Great National Rejuvenation

Xia Yu shook her head and laughed, "It's an important military site, and it's absolutely forbidden for idlers to visit. We can only watch from a distance. After all, it's still a time of war, and little devils, spies, and agents are everywhere!"

In fact, Xia Yu still has some things to say. Not long ago, she visited many forts that are under construction and have been built for on-the-spot interviews, but a special pass is required for that.

Not everyone can go in and visit these top-level coastal defense fortifications carefully!

Liang Qiao said with a smile: "It's okay! It's okay! It's completely understandable! Then I stand here to take a photo, right?"

"Of course no problem!"

Xia Yu nodded and smiled, and then took out the camera from the satchel.

"Wait, how can I miss this matter! After we go back, we can brag about it for a long time!"

Su Xian walked over quickly and stood with Liang Qiao to pose.

Click!Click!

Immediately afterwards, the shutter sounded again and again, no matter in the past or now, taking photos while traveling is one of the biggest hobbies of girls!

"Unexpectedly, our Huaxia still has such a magical land! Now I have every reason to believe that it won't be long before our mighty Huaxia will stand tall again on the pinnacle of the world!"

Looking at the majestic fort in the distance, seeing the indestructible coastal defense fortification lines, and seeing the [-]-ton giant ship busy and busy, Xia Houcheng was full of excitement and pride.
