Chapter 198: Nanjing Campaign Review Meeting

Chapter 198 Nanjing Battle Review Conference

Chen Xiuwen was startled and turned around and saw that it was Lin Jingyun and a familiar young female officer standing behind her. It was Lin Jingyun who just shouted.

"Master." Wang Xiaofei hurriedly saluted Chen Xiuwen with a nervous look on his face.

Chen Xiuwen replied with a greeting and said with surprise: "Jingyun, it's been a long time since we met."

Since retreating to Nanjing, this is the first time Chen Xiuwen has seen Lin Jingyun. He went to the hospital several times to visit the casualties but did not see her. He just retreated to Nanling last night, but it was Sheng Hua, the director of the Divisional Hospital, who came to suture and bandage his wounds.

"The master is busy with all kinds of things every day, so of course he can't see me." Lin Jingyun said expressionlessly.

How could Chen Xiuwen hear Lin Jingyun's words smell a little sour? Thinking about it, since his relationship with Yu Wenwan broke through, Chen Xiuwen rarely remembered this old classmate who had a good impression or even had ideas. He smiled awkwardly and was about to explain, but he heard Lin Jingyun say in a business manner: "Master, as a military doctor, I would like to remind Master that your wound was just sutured yesterday and there was inflammation, so you must not drink alcohol. I hope Master will pay attention to it in the future and cooperate with our treatment."

Chen Xiuwen was stunned. Although the part where he was shot was still aching, he was just a hole in the 38th rifle bullet, and he did not hurt his bones. He raised his arm and said, "It's not that serious, right? Why don't you help me and take a look?"

In fact, Chen Xiuwen went to the hospital several times before, and he also felt that Lin Jingyun was deliberately hiding from him. Now he saw that Lin Jingyun seemed to be quite abnormal today. He deliberately wanted to joke with Lin Jingyun while he was drunk.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Chen Xiuwen finished speaking, Lin Jingyun frowned slightly and looked at Chen Xiuwen's arm. She turned around and saw this scene and said, "Xiaofei, come here, those bandages, disinfectants and anti-inflammatory powder."

Wang Xiaofei responded quickly, turned around and hurriedly threw it to the division hospital not far away.

"Master, please. I'll check you carefully later and change your medicine."

Looking at Lin Jingyun's poker face, Chen Xiuwen really couldn't think of where she offended her again. The expression on this face was clearly the expression she had towards Master Chen Er. After sighing, she had to walk into the division headquarters.

Seeing Lin Jingyun accompanying Chen Xiuwen in, Chen Yi, who was guarding the door, did not follow in the house, and secretly suggested that Ma Congping, who was following Shen Xiuwen, left.

"Jingyun, Jia Ning came to Nanjing before the war, and asked me about you." After walking into the house and sitting down, Chen Xiuwen smiled and said to Lin Jingyun with no words.

Hearing this, Lin Jingyun's face changed slightly. She remembered the scene of meeting Zeng Jianing that day. It was not Zeng Jianing that day, but also a elegant and elegant Mrs. Chen who was with her. When Mrs. Chen, who once claimed to be a talented woman in Jinling, thanked her for saving her husband, Lin Jingyun suddenly felt very jealous of Mrs. Chen. She even felt that if she had been willing, the identity of Mrs. Chen would be herself. But when she thought of her mission, she felt like a big stone was her.

"What's wrong with me?" Lin Jingyun, who turned his back to Chen Xiuwen, suddenly asked himself in his heart. Lin Jingyun realized the abnormality of his behavior just now. Is he worried about the injury on Chen Xiuwen? Or was he venting the true feelings that had been accumulated in his heart after seeing Chen Xiuwen at this moment? Do you have the right to do this? Do you have the right to vent your emotions desperately? You still have a special mission on your shoulders. You don't have the right to do this. The only thing you can do is to live up to the expectations of the organization for your mission.

Lin Jingyun tried hard to calm herself down, turned around, grinned at Chen Xiuwen and smiled slightly, "Thank you for your concern, Jia Ning has come to see me."

Lin Jingyun's turn of 180 degrees suddenly made Chen Xiuwen stunned. Looking at the smile on Lin Jingyun's face, he opened his mouth, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

At this moment, Wang Xiaofei rushed over with a first aid kit. At this moment, Lin Jingyun returned to normal and took the first aid kit from Wang Xiaofei: "Master, I'll check your wounds and change your medicine by the way."

Chen Xiuwen was not at all talking about someone there, so he nodded, raised his injured hand, and let Lin Jingyun mercy.

Lin Jingyun checked it very carefully, carefully cleaned the wound with disinfectant, then applied cool anti-inflammatory medicine to the hot wound, and finally re-banded it with a clean bandage.

"Master, your wound is a little red and swollen. It is best not to drink alcohol in the near future. Try to eat some cool things. It is estimated that it will be healed in less than a week."

Looking at the backs of Lin Jingyun and Wang Xiaofei walking out, Chen Xiuwen still didn't react. What happened to Lin Jingyun today?

"It seems that Lin Jingyun has to change her medicine tomorrow. Her skills are much better than Shenghua." Chen Xiuwen moved his arm that felt much more and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

However, Chen Xiuwen still had no chance to ask Lin Jingyun to change her medicine the next day. Early the next morning, he was telegram from the Wuhan Military and Political Department. All the troops retreated to Nanling immediately set off for Wuhan for rest. The major general and above officers set off immediately and rushed to Luojia Mountain in Wuchang to convene a Nanjing Battle Prosecutor.

"Niang Xipi, Tang Mengxiao should be killed. Wang Jingjiu, Shenfazhe should be shot." Chiang Kai-shek roared with anger, waving the report in his hand.

Minister of Military Affairs He Yingqin's face was very awkward. After all, Wang Jingjiu and Shen Fazao were both people in his system. Although Bai Chongxi sat there expressionlessly, he felt a little gloating. He had strongly advocated giving up Nanjing before the war, but Lao Chiang refused to listen and appointed Tang Shengzhi, who was very talented, as the commander-in-chief of Nanjing. As a result, it took less than a week from the beginning to the end of the Nanjing defense battle, and even ruined 60,000 to 70,000 troops in vain. Most of these troops were Lao Chiang's direct troops.

Chen Cheng looked solemn, and did not secretly gloat like Bai Chongxi because of his mortal enemy He Yingqin, because he was Chiang Kai-shek's direct descendant, and everything about him was based on Chiang Kai-shek's support. So like Chiang Kai-shek, he felt sad about the disastrous defeat in the defense battle of Nanjing and the loss of so many troops.

Suffering from the defeated troops, most of the troops did not retreat to Jiangbei. Song Xilian, the commander of the 78th Army who died in vain, was the first to directly send a telegram to Chiang Kai-shek, accusing Tang Shengzhi of overturning the orders that had been issued without regard to the actual situation, which directly led to the tragedy at Xiaguan Wharf. Hu Zongnan, the commander of the First Army stationed in Jiangbei, also sued Tang Shengzhi for changing the orders and not notifying him in time, causing his troops to shoot at friendly troops who were retreating to Jiangbei.

The entire army was wiped out. Under the desperate escort of his subordinates, Liu Anqi, the commander of the 261st Brigade of the 87th Division who drifted to Jiangbei, carrying a piece of wood, sued Wang Jingjiu and Shen Fazao, who had left the troops and fled in the last battle.

Thirty thousand were killed in battle, but the defeat caused more than 30,000 soldiers who were all direct troops to be sacrificed in vain at Xiaguan Wharf, which made Chiang Zhongzheng feel very angry and even wanted to set up a special military court to judge Tang Shengzhi, Wang Jingjiu and Shen Fazao.

"Commissioner, although Tang Mengxiao made some mistakes in command, he had the courage to lead his troops to attack the Japanese invaders in Nanjing and evacuated the citizens of Nanjing in time, without causing greater civilian casualties. If these frontline generals were tried at this time, it would probably hurt the morale of all the soldiers." Chen Cheng hurriedly dissuaded.

Chen Cheng had another subtext that he had not expressed. At the beginning, Chairman Jiang strongly advocated to stick to Nanjing. Now that Nanjing is lost, you have to punish the responsibility of the fallen general, and it is inevitable that he will seize his handle and take the opportunity to attack.

It is rare that Chen Cheng would say this, and He Yingqin hurriedly said: "Yes, the council. Cixiu said it makes sense. Although Nanjing is lost, we must also let the people of the whole country see our soldiers on the frontline fighting bravely and inspire the nation to fight to the end."

Chiang Kai-shek did not speak, but looked at Bai Chongxi who had been silent. In fact, he understood what Chen Cheng and He Yingqin said, but he was really heartbroken when the troops suffered such great losses. Moreover, if Nanjing could hold on for two to three months like Shanghai, the international situation might change, and maybe it could reverse the current decline in one fell swoop. But now his last glimmer of hope for the international community to interfere. In a rage, it was revealed that he would severely punish Tang Shengzhi who was blindly commanding and Wang Jingjiu and Shen Fazao who escaped in the battle. But in fact, he did not want to do this. Severely punishing Tang Shengzhi would be like slapping himself in the face and shooting Wang Jingjiu and Shen Fazao who had always admired, and he was reluctant to let him go.

"Jiansheng, what do you think?"

When Bai Chongxi heard this, he immediately knew that Jiang Jiang had softened and asked that he was just looking for a step. He smiled bitterly in his heart: If he had known today, why would he have to be there? He had to nod and agree with Chen and the others' opinions.

"Wang Jingjiu and Shen Fazao really dismissed the Whampoa soldiers and were dismissed. The number of the 71st Army was cancelled and the 87th Division was incorporated into the 78th Army. Ci Xiu, you must preside over this post-war review meeting, and the entire army will take this as a warning in the future." Chairman Jiang's words were loud and loud.

He Yingqin sighed secretly, the number of a main force was lost like this, but it was still lucky to be able to save the two generals under him. Old Jiang was nostalgic, and Wang and Shen were his favorite students again. Let's find a chance to come back in the future.
