Chapter 276 Xingcheng Defense Battle

"The Second Battalion of the 583rd Regiment was attacked by a Japanese tank squadron outside Baoshan County.

Twelve tanks were seized, one of which was seriously damaged, but was dragged into Baoshan County."

"What?"

"They actually captured twelve tanks?" Chairman Chiang was surprised.

Bai Chongxi was a little helpless: I have just shown these to you, Chairman.

Chairman Chiang had been worried about the affairs of the multinational military observation group, and had not paid much attention to the subsequent battle reports.

Now I know what I missed.

After hearing this, a smile finally appeared on his face: "Jiansheng! What do you think of this matter?"

The 583rd Regiment is affiliated to the 15th Group Army and is part of the Left Route Army.

Jiansheng is the name of Chen Cheng, the commander-in-chief of the Left Route Army. This is to ask Chen Cheng to evaluate his team.

Chen Cheng immediately said: "Chairman! My subordinates believe that the battle report of the 583rd Regiment is credible.

Especially when it comes to seizing twelve tanks, it is impossible to fake it.

And: If you can use mortars to knock out a Japanese army of sixteen aircraft, what else can't you do?"

In one paragraph, the dream was pulled into reality.

Chairman Chiang's face suddenly turned red: "Ci Xiu! Do you think this battle report is credible?"

"Yes! It's what really happened.

Think about it, everyone: why did the Second Battalion encounter an ambush when an airship from the multinational military observation group was watching the battle?

Everywhere on the battlefield in Shanghai there are battlefields that are much more intense than a mere battalion-level combat unit, and the multinational military observation group happened to appear here.

It can only be shown that this was an ambush that the Japanese had already planned and premeditated.

It was they who specially invited a multinational military observer group to watch their military performance.

It was just that they did not expect to be killed by my heroic Second Battalion, so the Japanese became angry and angry, fearing that this matter would spread and affect their legend of being invincible.

Deliberately crashed the airship of the multinational military observation group.

And there is supporting evidence behind this matter, please continue, Deputy Chief of Staff."

Just kidding: The 583rd Regiment is the 98th Division, which is Chen Cheng's own team. Of course he has to protect it.

No matter how much moisture there is in this battle report, he must make it true.

Bai Chongxi cleared his throat before continuing to introduce: "The Second Battalion of the 583rd Regiment has a full strength of 631 people.

Entering Baoshan County, there were 131 wounded, 63 uninjured, and 437 killed."

After reading this number, the expressions of the senior officers present suddenly became serious.

Even He Yingqin, who had a sneer on his face just now, put away his doubtful expression and looked solemn.

A main camp of more than 600 people was beaten down to 63 people in one day. This persistence is worthy of respect.

Bai Chongxi paused intentionally for a while, as if leaving time for the fallen officers and soldiers to observe silence.

Then he continued: "On the other hand, the U.S. Embassy in China sent Colonel Stilwell and fifty-three Marines to Baoshan to investigate the airship crash.

Commander Lu Jingrong of the 583rd Regiment led a 13-person guard platoon, and three other people, including Acting Second Battalion Commander Wei Mingyang, led the way for the Americans."

If you were to lead the way, there would be too many people. Those present here all understood this, but then they thought about it:

Being familiar with Americans has many benefits after all.

"They were bombed by Japanese planes at the airship crash site, and the acting battalion commander destroyed nineteen enemy planes again.

With thirteen surviving guards in the platoon, the regimental commander was seated, his two assistants, Colonel Stilwell and Captain Smith, and two female reporters.

After annihilating more than 300 Japanese cavalry regiments and more than 180 Japanese mechanized infantry squadrons who escaped in the morning.

Join the more than 100 national army soldiers who came to rescue from Baoshan County."

"Twenty-one of them, annihilated five hundred Japs? Is this a storyteller?" He Yingqin couldn't listen anymore.

If this battle report was archived like this, he wouldn't say anything.

To make a big deal about it on such an occasion: Is it appropriate?

This is too fake!

Bai Chongxi also thought it was fake and the committee members did not stop it.

He smiled bitterly and continued: "The acting battalion commander suddenly suggested that we should sneak attack the Japanese brigade headquarters.

There were just over a hundred of them, and they left Yangjiacun and attacked the headquarters of the Suzuki Brigade that was attacking Baoshan County.

Defeated the Japanese army and killed thousands of Japanese soldiers.

Then I returned to Baoshan County to rest."

Chen Cheng looked down at the audience with a smile on his face.

There was only one person in the room who was as happy as him: the Chairman.

Chairman Jiang's face was red, and his excitement was palpable: "Wei Mingyang! Wei Mingyang! Although this name is a bit straightforward, it is still very majestic.

This Wei Mingyang is very capable of fighting! Have you found out his background?"

No one answered: Of course it is the secret service that investigates this kind of thing.

The scene was a military meeting, and neither Chen Lifu, the director of the Military Command Bureau, nor Dai Li, the deputy director, were present.

Chen Cheng stood up and said: "Commitment! This Wei Mingyang has a good way of fighting, but he seems to be a little greedy for money.

According to reports from his subordinates, after every battle, he immediately ordered the soldiers to search the enemy's pockets and satchels.

All money was divided up on the spot.

Some of the Japs had gold teeth, so they pried open every Japs' mouth in search of gold.

The other thing is that he doesn’t like to keep prisoners.”

Hearing Chen Cheng mention his shortcomings, Chairman Chiang became even more happy: "Civilian officials want fame, but military officials are greedy for money.

This has been true throughout the ages! It’s not a big deal.

What's more, he had seized it from the Japanese, so the Military Justice Department should not be too strict about this matter.

As for the prisoners, we still have to tell him: it is much more useful for the Japanese prisoners to stay than to kill them."

Only people with shortcomings can use them to their advantage.

Chen Cheng said: "In addition, there is a female reporter from Ta Kung Pao who went to interview with the Americans today. This Wei Mingyang seems to be very interested in her."

This is a greedy and lustful person!
