    Qilu, Huangpu Road, Nanjing.

    Qilu is the official official residence of Chairman Chiang Kai-shek. The other two official residences of Chairman Chiang Kai-shek in Nanjing, Tangshan Villa and Meiling Palace, are mostly used for vacation and leisure.

    After taking a walk every morning, Chairman Chiang would rest for a while on the terrace on the second floor of his official residence, look at the scenery, and listen to the chants of the Central Military Academy cadets during training. Then he would be in a good mood and full of energy throughout the day!

    However, after the Battle of Songhu broke out, all the cadets of the Central Military Academy graduated early and went to the front line, so the entire campus suddenly fell silent.

    Chairman Chiang stood on the terrace on the second floor. The scenery was still the same, but he always felt that something was missing.

    After a long while, Chairman Chiang said to Qian Dajun, the director of the attendant's office who was standing behind him: "Mu Yin, turn on the radio."

    Qian Dajun agreed, immediately stepped forward and turned on the radio on the coffee table, and tuned it to the Central News Agency.

    Because Qian Dajun knew very well that Shanghai Mayor Yu Hongjun was going to give a radio speech this morning, and it was Yu Hongjun¡¯s speech that Chairman Chiang wanted to listen to.

    The radio had just been turned on, and Yu Hongjun's deep voice came from inside: "Soldiers from all over the country went to the dangers upon hearing their righteousness. When their fate was approaching, they used their flesh and blood on the front line to build trenches. They would not retreat until they died! The positions were reduced to ashes.  The morale of the military is still as strong as iron. The courage to stand in battle and the fierceness of death are enough to demonstrate the spirit of national independence! Lay the foundation for the rejuvenation of China!"

    Before he finished his speech, Chairman Jiang let out a long sigh and said, "Mu Yin, it's better to shut it down."

    "Yes!" Qian Dajun agreed and turned off the radio. Yu Hongjun's voice was no longer heard immediately.

    Qian Dajun can probably guess Chairman Chiang¡¯s mood at the moment. No matter how good Yu Hongjun¡¯s speech is, it will not change the fact that Shanghai has fallen!  This largest and richest cosmopolitan city in the Far East will no longer belong to China from this day on, let alone when will it return to the embrace of China?

    Perhaps, it will never be possible to return.

    Of course, what Chairman Chiang is most concerned about is that after the fall of Shanghai, the Nationalist Government will lose 40% of its tax revenue. The already stretched financial situation will only become worse!

    However, at this moment, the captain of the guard, Wang Shihe, suddenly came up.

    "Commissioner, good news!" Wang Shihe couldn't hide the joy in his brows, and he took a step forward and said, "Dai Li, the director of the Operations Department of the Fuxing Society, called and said that the 367th Regiment took down the Japanese Sixth Division in one fell swoop last night.  At the division headquarters, more than 200 people from the 6th Division, starting from the commander Hisao Tani down to the rank, were killed!"

    "Really?" Chairman Chiang suddenly turned around and said, "Kill a lieutenant general?"

    "Yes!" Wang Shihe nodded heavily, "Kill one lieutenant general and seven assistant officers!"

    "Mother Xipi, you did a great job!" Chairman Jiang struck hard and said to Qian Dajun, "Mu Yin, please call the Central News Agency quickly and ask Yu Hongjun to add this good news! This will prove that I am Chinese.  The spirit of martial arts is still there, no matter how ferocious the foreign enemies are, our majestic China will not give in easily!"

    "Yes!" Qian Dajun turned around and hurried away.

    Watching Qian Dajun leave, Chairman Jiang finally showed a smile on his face and said softly: "This Zhong Yi is really non-stop, and will make some noise from time to time."

    Wang Shihe said: "However, the noise he made was a bit big."

    "No," said Chairman Chiang. "First, he destroyed a Japanese heavy artillery brigade, and then took down a Japanese division headquarters and killed a Japanese lieutenant general. This is really a big deal!"

    Wang Shihe said: "But in this case, Zhong Yi will be in danger."

    After a pause, Wang Shihe whispered again: "Commissioner, do you want to send troops to respond?"

    Chairman Chiang hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed: "Forget it, forget it."

    It¡¯s not that Chairman Chiang doesn¡¯t want to, it¡¯s that he really can¡¯t find any troops to respond to the 367th Regiment.

    ¡­¡­

    Almost at the same time, the Japanese army also officially held a press conference at the Shanghai Marine Corps Command.

    Originally, the Japanese army did not dare to blatantly promote the Sino-Japanese war, and it was even more unthinkable to hold a press conference, because Japan was always wary of the reaction of Western powers and worried that the West would interfere.

    But the just-concluded Nine-Nation Conference gave Japan the confidence to do so.

    Because the Nine-Nation Convention only gave Japan a few symbolic words of admonishment at the Brussels meeting.

    Now, the Japanese government has completely figured out the bottom line of Western countries -??We will not interfere in Chinese events!

    Therefore, as soon as the Battle of Songhu ended, Japan couldn't wait to hold a press conference, with the purpose of announcing a fact to the West: starting from today, the Chinese community in Shanghai will be solely controlled by Japan!

    This press conference invited reporters from all Western countries in Shanghai.

    In addition, the Japanese military¡¯s lineup at the press conference was also unprecedented.

    In addition to the Japanese Consul General in Shanghai Okamoto Yoshimasa and the military attache in China Honda Sukeichi, they even invited the commander of the Shanghai Condemnation Force Matsui Iwane and the division commander of the 3rd Division Susumu Fujita.

    Susumu Fujita first showed a photo to the Western reporters present.

    The photo was taken at the Shanghai Municipal Government in Longhua, but the originally majestic municipal government building has now been turned into ruins. A group of Japanese soldiers with live ammunition are standing on the ruins raising their hands and cheering.

    Susumu Fujita pointed at the photo and said triumphantly: "Here, let me first inform you of the good news. Before yesterday evening, the imperial army had captured China's municipal government in Shanghai. In other words, the imperial army had  The Chinese government forces have been completely driven out of Shanghai and have completely won the Battle of Songhu!"

    Okamoto Jisheng then said: "I want to tell you some good news. It won't be long before the Chinese government announces its surrender, and Shanghai, and even the entire Far East, will soon be able to restore the original order! In addition, I can also express my gratitude to everyone.  People guarantee that the Empire of Japan will do its best to safeguard the interests of all countries in China."

    At this time, a reporter asked: "Mr. Consul General, are you really sure that the Chinese government will announce its surrender soon?"

    "Yes, I'm very sure." Ji Zhengdao Okamoto said, "Before the Battle of Songhu, I said that the Chinese government would announce its surrender within three months. This is not nonsense, but is well-founded!"

    Another reporter retorted: "But as far as I know, the Chinese military does not seem to have lost its will to resist."

    "No, no, what you said is wrong." Okamoto Jimasei said, "I can tell you responsibly that the Chinese army has been defeated by the imperial army. They have completely lost their will to resist! Facing the Japanese imperial army's  Pursuing, the Chinese army couldn't even organize a decent blockade, they only knew how to flee in a swarm towards their capital Nanjing!"
