As soon as Tang Enbo heard that it was Lao Jiang's urgent call, he hurriedly stood up and stood solemnly: "What instructions does the president have?"
The staff officer immediately stood upright and solemnly and read: "Shanghai is the strategic center of the Far East, and it must be held for more than three months, the international situation may change dramatically, the US allies and Soviet Russia are about to compete in the Far East, and the Third World War is about to break out."
When Tang Enbo heard this, he hurriedly said to the generals under him: "Colleagues, the president has called, encouraging us to stick to Shanghai, Shanghai is the financial center of the Far East, Britain, the United States, France and other powers have huge interests here, as long as we can support here for more than three months, then we can wait for the opportunity for a counteroffensive, if the Western allies join the civil war at that time, it will only be a matter of time to be driven back to the north of the Yangtze River, and the party-state is expected to be restored." ” When the generals under Tang Enbo heard this, they all laughed secretly: "It is hoped that the party-state will be restored to the country Now that the Communist Party has hit Jiading, it is good to be able to run out of Shanghai, and I still want to restore the country, Shanghai is not an easy to defend and difficult to attack Jedi, except for the lack of a navy and air force, the others are stronger than their own team, what do we do to restore the country, Lao Jiang is still dreaming that the Western powers will intervene in the civil war, what a dream, if the Yankees would have made a move, they would have intervened in Nanjing at that time, and they are not running fast, It's ridiculous to hear that the American ambassador has already fled to the United States at this time."
Tang Enbo saw that the mood of the generals below was not very high, and he immediately slapped the table and shouted to everyone: "This time, we have arranged twenty divisions around Shanghai, all mechanized troops, there are more than 2,000 light and dark bunkers alone, and the fire reinforcements of tanks, navy, fleet guns, and guns are all millet plus rifles, I don't believe that they can break through the steel defense line composed of tanks, planes, and naval guns, aren't they made of flesh and blood, they are not afraid of shells and bullets."
After Commander Tang's agitation, the generals below reacted slightly, applauding slightly, Commander Tang was obviously a little excited, hurriedly took a sip of water, and continued to blow: "Let me tell you a good news, the president has instructed the air force and navy to fully support our campaign in Shanghai this time, and authorized me, have the right to dictatorship in battle, powerful, that is because they are outnumbered, but do they have aircraft and warships The more than 2,000 light and dark bunkers on the side of Qingpu Jiading are insurmountable fortresses, It will be the grave where they are buried" Commander Tang's tone became higher and higher, and the last few words were shouted almost at the top of his voice.
The following sycophant officers immediately took the lead in applauding, and immediately the applause in the venue was like thunder, which lasted for a long time, and Commander Tang saw that the effect was there, and the emotions of his subordinates were adjusted by him, and he had to add more fire "Brothers, this battle of Shanghai is extraordinary, all units and parts must be carried out in strict accordance with the rules of the war, I have drawn up a few opinions here, chief of staff, you will announce it, and immediately issue it for implementation" Commander Tang took out a thing and handed it to the chief of staff sitting next to him, asking him to read it.
The chief of staff immediately stood up and read: "In view of the imminent approach of the Battle of Shanghai, the Beijing-Shanghai Garrison Command has specially drawn up the following regulations, which all units must strictly enforce.
As soon as the chief of staff's words came out, the hearts of the generals sitting below shuddered, and they thought: It seems that in order to keep Shanghai this time, Commander Tang is going to kill someone, so we have to be careful, don't be unlucky "First, if there is a person who surrenders to the company or above in the front team, the officers above the regiment to which they belong will be punished according to the same merit and will be shot on the spot" As soon as the chief of staff said this, the Kuomintang officers who were sitting there was a noise, isn't this a joint sitting, if the officers and soldiers of the team below have a mutiny, they will have to accompany the regiment commander and above, this is too harsh, and it will be unlucky to sit here, what kind of wartime order is this, it is clearly nonsense, and when the time comes, it will be urgent, and you have to rebel with the commander above, If you want to die anyway, it's better to pull the team to join the Communist Party, at least you can pick up a life.
Commander Tang saw the reaction of the generals below, and felt very proud, thinking that the regulations he had drawn up had worked, and he had always thought that the combat effectiveness was still good, mainly because those officers were afraid of death, which caused repeated defeats in previous battles with the army, so that they were beaten across the Yangtze River, captured Nanjing, and threatened Shanghai.
"Second, all those who have made meritorious contributions to the enemy and held their positions will be promoted to the third rank and rewarded with three gold bars, and their families will be given priority to the opportunity to go to Taiwan."
Tang Enbo planned to use Enwei to control the panicked officers under his command this time, and he came up with this trick of using the families of the officers to control the officers' poisonous tricks were indeed ruthless enough, and all of a sudden, those who were sitting below, who were originally thinking in their stomachs about how to take the opportunity to join the Communist Party when they had no choice, were completely out of line, and their wives and children's parents were controlled, and this could not make the whole family die if they could not join the Communist Party.
Tang Enbo, you are ruthless enough "Third, all intelligence agencies in the Shanghai area should be immediately merged and unified under the leadership of the Beijing-Shanghai Command, so as to intensify the crackdown on the activities of the underground party of the Chinese Communist Party and prevent the leakage of military intelligence."
It seems that Lao Tang's ambitions this time are not small, and he plans to merge the intelligence agencies within the Kuomintang, can the two sworn enemies of the military and the Central Union get along, and they have been fighting for decades, who are you Lao Tang, even Lao Jiang can't solve the difficult matter, and it is really whimsical that you can obediently obey it by relying on a wartime order "Finally, in order to reward those who have made meritorious contributions, the headquarters has set up a military prostitute camp to gather all the prostitutes and dancers in Shanghai to form a military prostitute camp to comfort these meritorious personnel in battle."
In order to keep Shanghai, Commander Tang can be said to have done everything, even the next three indiscriminate tricks of recruiting prostitutes to set up military prostitute camps have come out, it seems that the water is really exhausted, it is really urgent, this kind of stinky trick is simply to drink doves to quench thirst, once there is a large-scale epidemic of venereal diseases in the army, it will be fatal to the combat effectiveness of the troops, Commander Tang is really amazing Just when the fat man was capturing Taicang and planning to take advantage of the situation to attack Jiading, the northwestern gateway of Shanghai in the south, the comrades of the underground party in Shanghai received the latest information, saying that a large number of Kuomintang spies and military police were dispatched to carry out a large-scale search and arrest in the city of Shanghai, and that many underground party comrades who had not had time to transfer were unfortunately arrested, and that many comrades had already been killed by the enemy, that the work of the underground party had been paralyzed, and that the work of obtaining information on the enemy's city defense had stopped.
The latest enemy city defense information that the fat man has obtained is still three days ago, and the enemy has built at least hundreds of reinforced concrete pillboxes in the area from Jiading to Luodian, dug many trenches, criss-crossed, and dazzled.
The fat man is worried, this is a rare worry he has since the army fought, it is not that the strong fortifications of the Kuomintang army on the opposite side are not easy to fight, although the reinforced concrete fortifications are strong and difficult to attack, but as long as the firepower is fierce enough and the time is enough, it can still be taken down, the problem is that Zhou Wu just sent an order above, asking the fat man not to use heavy artillery when they capture the Shanghai area, so as not to cause accidental injury to the citizens of Shanghai.
The fat man wondered, without heavy artillery, just relying on the flesh and blood of the soldiers to blow up so many light and dark bunkers, how many people would have to die, he was worried, what should he do At the moment when the fat man was shaking his big head here in Taicang, the river defense fleet of Deputy Commander Li, escorting three stolen transport ships full of gold and property, was hurriedly returning along the coastline towards Jiangyin.
In order to be able to get to Jiangyin as soon as possible, Deputy Commander Li ordered the fleet to return at full speed and at the highest speed, he knew that as long as he arrived at the Jiangyin Fort, there were those anti-aircraft guns on the fort, his own fleet would be able to avoid the bombing of the Kuomintang planes that had retaliated against it However, it backfired, and when Deputy Commander Li's fleet hurried back in the direction of Jiangyin, and on the sea of Nantong, which was less than 40 nautical miles away from Jiangyin, the scouts on lookout and the radar troops in the communications room suddenly discovered that a large group of Kuomintang planes were flying in the southeast sky When Deputy Commander Li heard about the Kuomintang planes, his face changed drastically, and he hurriedly ordered the river defense fleet to immediately disperse in all directions and maneuver to evade, because the air defense strength of his own ships was insufficient to stop the bombing of the enemy planes.
As a result, the convoys on the sea immediately dispersed, and the armed fishing boats and small gunboats sent by the fat man to Deputy Commander Li rushed out of formation without receiving the order of Deputy Commander Li, and rushed southeast towards the place where the enemy planes were coming.
However, the Kuomintang bombers flying in the air soon discovered the attempt of the armed fishing boats below, and instead of attacking the gunboats and fishing boats, they directly dived down on the side of Deputy Commander Li and their fleet.
Deputy Commander Li hurriedly ordered the ship's anti-aircraft guns and machine guns to open fire, while the ship's guns fired smoke grenades into the air to avoid the bombardment of the aircraft t1706231537:
