"Tell me, what kind of battle are you fighting?”
"So many people? He couldn't even compare to a small Zhang Hongsheng!”
"Don't you feel ashamed?”
"Are you worthy of the military uniform you're wearing?”
"Mother Xi Pi!"
"What are you guys thinking? Are they all sh * t?"
……
The generals were scolded so badly that they did not dare to retort and could only endure it.
"Please calm down!"
After the bald man cursed, he felt much better. Then, he said,"Changshu has fallen, and the flanks of Gusu are already under serious threat. The Wufu line has also been destroyed.”
"Zhang Hongsheng and the others stopped the Japanese at Huaqiao, which bought us enough time to retreat.”
"Yes, sir!"
"I'll arrange for the troops of Gusu to retreat immediately," Chen Cheng quickly said."However, I hope you can give me your instructions on how to deal with Zhang Hongsheng."”
The bald man frowned slightly and said,"What do you mean?"
"We sent someone to the Flower Bridge to pass down the order," said Chen Cheng."I didn't expect Zhang Hongsheng to be so arrogant and rude. He actually dared to insult you. He's really audacious."”
The bald man pretended to be magnanimous and waved his hand."These are all small matters. Zhang Hongsheng blocked the Japanese's attack and made a great contribution to the country. He should be rewarded!"
Chen Cheng could not help but frown. For a moment, he could not understand the bald man's thoughts.
" Our army is constantly losing," the bald man continued." Our morale is low. Now, we need to set an example to boost our morale.”
"The Battle of Huaqiao is a good example. We need to publicize the victory of this battle throughout the country to boost the morale of the soldiers and civilians.”
After the war broke out, the Chinese army suffered a crushing defeat in North China. Now, they suffered a crushing defeat in Songhu, losing their troops and land.
There were really not many achievements that could be brought out. The newspapers reported that they had either lost here or lost there.
This caused some of the pro-Japanese factions and the surrendering factions to quickly raise their heads. They repeatedly shouted that war would definitely lead to the destruction of the country and tried their best to say that the war would be defeated.
This was a very dangerous thing. Once the entire country was affected, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Therefore, in terms of publicity, the Jinling government also tried to publicize as many victories as possible. However, if there were no outstanding achievements, they could only exaggerate the small victories.
And now, there was a ready-made model for publicity--the Battle of Huaqiao.
Baldy naturally wouldn't let it go. He had to publicize it vigorously to boost morale. He had to use a small victory to cover up the overall defeat.
This was Baldy's wishful thinking.
"Yes, sir!"
"But this Zhang Hongsheng…?" Chen Cheng frowned.”
Weren't they the ones who had the final say in how they promoted it?
When the time came, the newspapers would definitely not publicize the negative news about Zhang Hongsheng. They would definitely say that the victory this time was carried out under the wise leadership of the committee.
Of course, the bald man wouldn't really be that magnanimous.
Zhang Hongsheng didn't put him in his eyes now. Could he still control such a person in the future?
Therefore, in Baldy's eyes, Zhang Hongsheng was already a dead man.
However, the bald man could not help but feel a little regretful. From the battle at Huaqiao, this Zhang Hongsheng was indeed a talent.
The bald man only regretted that he could not use such a talent.
" The Wufu Line has been lost," the bald man continued." We can only retreat to the Xicheng Line. This is the last line of defense outside Jinling.”
"If we can't hold it, Jinling will be exposed to the enemy. It's an important place in the capital, so we can't afford any mishaps.”
"Therefore, no matter what, you must protect the Xi-Cheng Line.”
"Yes, sir! I promise to complete the mission." The generals replied in unison.
On the other hand, Jinling was preparing to retreat to the Xicheng Line.
On the same night, Zhang Hongsheng took advantage of the victory and completely defeated the Japanese's 9th division.
At the military meeting at the front line, Zhang Hongsheng said confidently,""As the saying goes, I'll take advantage of your weakness to take your life.”
"Now that the 9th division has been defeated, they have suffered heavy losses and their morale is low.”
"Even if we can't completely wipe them out, we have to at least ensure that we completely destroy them.”
At this time, Zhang Dabiao frowned and said,""Commander, we are still at a disadvantage in terms of numbers. It will be difficult for us to defeat the 9th division.”
"After all, the 9th division is the regular division of the Japanese. They are the elites of the Japanese.”
