Yan Wenbin stood in front of the map and said in a deep voice.
Changzhou? Why did he choose Changzhou last night? Testing Changzhou's defense? In the end, they even took down Changzhou?
Changzhou's location between Nanjing and Shanghai was very crucial. It could be said that it was stuck at the throat of the Japanese's logistics transportation line.
It was impossible for the Japanese's logistics supply line to bypass Changzhou. Changzhou was close to Gehu Lake in the south and the Yangtze River in the north. It was only ten kilometers away from the Yangtze River, not even twenty kilometers. If they occupied Changzhou, it would be impossible for the Japanese army's logistics supply line to reach Nanjing. This was because the Japanese did not dare to transport logistics in this ten-kilometer-wide area.
As long as Yan Wenbin had any other ideas, he could immediately cut off the logistics supply line of the Japanese army. Therefore, cutting off Changzhou was equivalent to cutting off the logistics department of the Japanese army under Nanjing. But now that Yan Wenbin had done so much, would Old Jiang know? Can you understand?
Yan Wenbin really did not want the Nanjing Massacre to happen again. Otherwise, hundreds of thousands of vengeful souls would float in the sky above Nanjing.
"Old Yan, what do you mean?”
Wang Mingzhi stood beside Yan Wenbin and asked softly.
"We all know the importance of the logistics supply line, and the Japanese also know that. Therefore, our place will definitely become a point of attraction for firepower. But is it worth it for us to do this? The Generalissimo didn't seem to have any intention of defending Nanking. So we have to do something!"
Yan Wenbin said after biting his lips.
After saying this, Yan Wenbin suddenly turned around and looked at Wang Mingzhi."Immediately send a message to the whole of China about what happened last night!”
.........................
On December 1st, 1937, a telegram sent from Changzhou shook the entire Huaxia.
Changzhou was captured by the 20th Army of the Sichuan Army. Yan Wenbin, the commander of the 2nd Regiment of the 133rd Division, led his troops to take over from the Japanese army. He wiped out more than 11,000 Japanese soldiers and had cut off the logistics supply line of the Japanese army under Nanjing City!
When the news spread, the entire country was shocked. Since the start of the war, whether it was the war in North China, the Battle of Taiyuan, or the Battle of Songhu that had just ended, the Chinese army had been defeated again and again. In just a few months, the entire Central China and North China had fallen, and even Taiyuan in Shanxi had fallen into the hands of the Japanese army.
In these few months, the Japanese army had also become extremely arrogant. A large infantry unit dared to fight against an entire Chinese infantry division, and even an infantry regiment dared to fight against an entire Chinese army. All kinds of military achievements also made the combat strength of the Japanese army deeply rooted in the hearts of the generals.
Many generals and infantry divisions avoided the Japanese army when they saw them and did not dare to come into contact with them easily. However, in such a situation, a message from the Sichuan Army claimed to have wiped out more than 11,000 Japanese troops in Changzhou. If this was converted, it would be the strength of three Japanese infantry regiments.
The three infantry regiments of the Japanese army dared to attack the three Chinese armies, but now, they were destroyed by the Sichuan army, which was said to have the worst weapons and equipment. Wasn't this news shocking?
They didn't believe it when they first heard the news, but then they remembered that it was a clear message, which meant that it was a real telegram. Otherwise, who would send such a clear code? If it was fake, he would be a laughingstock and would eventually have to go to the military court.
For a moment, the higher-ups of the Chinese military also turned their attention to Yan Wenbin. At the same time, they began to search for information and information about Yan Wenbin's background.

Chongqing, Leader's Mansion
"Yan Wenbin, his ancestral home is Zigong. His parents and relatives died in the turmoil. When he was young, he followed the elders in the village and fled to Western Sichuan. He was wandering in Deng Xihou's jurisdiction at that time. It was said that when Deng Xihou went out to inspect, he found this person fighting with a vicious dog at the age of twelve.
Deng Xihou felt the courage in his heart and specially took him in. In 1925, when he was twelve years old, he joined the army and started as an orderly under Deng Xihou. Because of his agile mind, he dared to fight and fight. Every time there was a battle, he would charge forward and was not afraid of death. Soon, he began to be promoted to an officer.
In 1927, at the age of 14, he became a platoon leader of Deng Xihou's guard battalion. Later on, in various major battles, this kid once again displayed his courage and fearlessness, and he was quickly promoted from platoon leader to battalion commander by Deng Xihou.
In 1930, after the war in the Central Plains ended, the civil war in Sichuan also came to an end. Due to his outstanding performance on the battlefield, Deng Xihou promoted him to the commander of the fifth regiment.
In 1931, this son was sent to Sichuan Military Academy by Deng Xihou to study. During this period, his position was temporarily taken over by his chief of staff, He Jie.
At the beginning of 1933, the young man graduated from the military academy and returned to the 5th Regiment as the regiment commander.
In 1934, Deng Xihou established the 3rd Independent Mixed Brigade of Western Sichuan. At the age of twenty-one, he became the brigade commander.
On July 7th, 1937, the war of resistance broke out and the Sichuan Army began to reorganize. He was reorganized into the 20th Army of the Sichuan Army, the colonel of the 2nd regiment of the 133rd Division. In the final stage of the Battle of Shanghai, he annihilated an offensive brigade of the Japanese army with a regiment's strength, but because the regiment also suffered heavy losses, it had to retreat to the rear to repair.
After the Battle of Songhu ended, our army was defeated and retreated. We also lost news of this child!”
At this moment, the chairman was sitting on the sofa, drinking water from a glass in his hand. In front of him was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties. He was wearing a military uniform and had the rank of major general on his shoulder.
Needless to say, if he reported this information to the chairman, then this person's identity was obvious. That's right, he was the director of the Military Command Bureau, Dai Yunong!
