    On the morning of October 12, at the base camp of the Wuhan Military Commission, senior generals and representatives from all participating forces across the country gathered together. Under the personal auspices of Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, the highest authority, the "Celebration Conference" was in full swing.  The "Tianhui" operation, which lasted for more than a month, has come to an end in a hasty manner.  Both sides mobilized an army of 600,000 to 700,000 troops and was a massive Jiangsu-Anhui battle. Both sides suffered heavy casualties. However, after the war, both the Wuhan government and the Tokyo government declared themselves the victors of the battle. The battle announced by the two sides  The report is even more contradictory.  First of all, the statistics of the two sides on their own casualties and the number of enemy killed are very different. The Japanese military ministry declared to the outside world that "in this battle, with the sincere cooperation of the armies of Japan and the new Nanjing government, we killed and captured Chinese Chiang Kai-shek and other local rebel troops."  More than 165,000 people were killed, and the number of casualties exceeded 200,000. In particular, they completely annihilated the Wuhan government's elite 87th Army and the "Zhongzheng" tank regiment, and severely damaged the 107th Armored Division and 101st Armored Division of the Northeast Army.  The price for achieving such brilliant results was less than 30,000 casualties; the Kuomintang's announcement was also outrageous. The Wuhan Military Commission claimed that "more than 180,000 Japanese and puppet troops were killed, wounded, and captured in this battle, and they were completely annihilated."  The fifth division and the 114th division of the Japanese ace troops and the first division of the puppet army were eliminated; while the casualties of various units of the national army were only more than 50,000 people." "Ta Kung Pao" quoted Chairman Chiang's original words to summarize, "This is  The war was the most glorious battle of the national army since the outbreak of the all-out war of resistance." The Northeast Frontier Defense Department was dissatisfied with the massive announcement by both sides, and carefully evaluated the comprehensive reports sent by various military observers and war consultants within the national army.  Finally, the data that was closest to objective reality and was finally sent to Zhang Xueliang showed that the casualties of the Japanese and puppet troops were around 70,000; the national army suffered more than 120,000, and most of them were local troops who suffered the heaviest casualties;  The Northeast Army's 1st Front Army and 2nd Front Army also suffered the highest number of casualties since leaving the country, reaching more than 20,000.

    However, from a strategic point of view, it seems that the Chinese army has taken a lot of advantages. First of all, the "capital defense circle" established by the Japanese and puppet troops around Nanjing was broken through two major loopholes in Chuzhou and Quanjiao, making the Wang puppet  The "capital" of the regime in Nanjing was opened and its position gradually became in danger. Moreover, this battle also greatly weakened the vitality of the Japanese army in East China, and the offensive was decadent. Naturally, they were unable to march westward to conquer Wuhan, thus ensuring the safety of the national capital. On the contrary, the Japanese army  On the one hand, it has indeed shattered the strategic goal of the National Army to return to Nanjing. On the other hand, it has severely damaged all the National Army units participating in the war, including the Northeast Army, which has always made the Japanese army's officers and soldiers frightened and timid.  The rumor that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army is superior to that of the Imperial Army has been more or less broken, which greatly enhanced the confidence and morale of the Japanese army in future battles with the Northeastern Army. The significance of this is naturally extraordinary.  However, even though both sides hold their own opinions and have their own reasons, it seems impossible to tell for a while who is the real winner in this battle and who will have the last laugh.

    But at this time, the atmosphere at the "celebration meeting" held by the Wuhan Military Commission was very abnormal. There was no festive atmosphere at all. The generals present were all very aware of the brutality of this battle. Naturally, they would not be praised for their usual success.  The impact of the military commission's battle report numbers used to boost morale and popular sentiment.  At this time, the venue was full of resentment. If the top president hadn't been sitting in person, some of the extremely angry officers present might have slapped the table and started yelling.  The focus of everyone's criticism and censure is naturally the 55th Army, which has played the role of the black sheep again and again in the battle.

    Not to mention the extreme indignation of the generals of the Minister He faction and the Director Chen faction who were devastated by the unprecedented blow to the Eighty-seventh Army, and even Zhou Zhirou, the commander-in-chief of the National Army Air Force who had always been indifferent to the combat situation of the Army.  The general (the main force of his air force was basically wiped out under the sweep of the Japanese tank troops) and others, as well as the Guizhou, Guangxi, Guangdong, Shanxi and  The Sichuan army generals also shouted in unison that they would investigate and hold Lieutenant General Cao Fulin, commander of the 55th Army, responsible for his "incompetent command and ruining the military situation."  The entire audience was filled with red-faced and excited generals. Only Peng Dehuai and Lin Biao, representatives of the 18th Group Army, who suffered the most serious losses.  The city's experience resulted in heavy casualties) and Northeastern Army representatives Hu Xianmei and Chu Qiming watched with anger and silence.  In addition to these four people, there were also the highest authority, Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, General Chen Cheng, and General He Yingqin, who calmly listened to the collective denunciation and petition of the generals from all walks of life who shared the same hatred with an open-minded expression.

    "Chairman! The unprecedented heavy damage suffered by the Eighty-seventh Army is certainly due to dereliction of duty, paralysis and negligence, but more importantly it is the result of the Fifty-fifth Army standing by and watching when the Japanese army secretly made a roundabout attack from behind our troops! I, the Eighty-seventh Army,  The army retreated for more than thirty miles overnight.It instantly detonated a mixed liquid explosive consisting of several kilograms of glyceryl trinitrate, nitric acid, and aminobenzene hidden in the roasted deer. The sparks and huge vibrations of the explosion immediately detonated the polyisobutylene hidden in the sandwich of the dinner plate.  Plastic explosives.  "Boom -", with a loud noise that ripped apart eardrums like thunder, the hall was filled with lightning, thunder, flying sand and rocks, as if an angry dragon had descended. Moto Sugiyama, who was standing at the center of the explosion point, was completely wiped out in a second.  The huge fireball that exploded suddenly contained unparalleled destructive power. Before anyone could react, the astonishingly powerful and ferocious shock wave was like the wings of death, sweeping across and destroying the entire place at the speed of a hurricane.  The hall, after impacting and burning almost all the people present into meat paste and ashes, continued to rage and spread unstoppably in all directions. Yagami Shadow Tomb, who had just walked to the door, was caught off guard by the blast of explosive air that rushed towards him like a leaf.  Like a sudden throw into the air.  Immediately after a series of earthquakes and tremors, the entire Nanjing government building collapsed in a violent explosion.

    The phone of the Northeast Border Defense Department rang!

    The phone of the Wuhan Military Commission is ringing!

    "Young Marshal! Team Leader Wang succeeded!" Qin Muhan, director of Zhang Xueliang's Attendant Office, rushed into the Supreme Military Conference Room almost ecstatically, and shouted without regard for etiquette as soon as he entered.

    "Well done!" Zhang Xueliang shouted with a high-five, "What a Wang Yaqiao! He is truly the 'King of Assassins'! Give me the order immediately! All the air forces in the East China Theater took off and bombed all the command systems and the Japanese army in Nanjing with all their strength.  An important military location! Order Wang Yizhe and Wang Shuchang to immediately send their troops south! Take advantage of his illness and kill him! Rush into Nanjing City!"

    "Yes!" The generals of the Northeast Army stood together and solemnly accepted the order.

    "Okay! Okay! Okay!" After reading the report sent quickly by Dong Yisan, the head of the East China Station of the Military Command Bureau, Chiang Kai-shek almost lost his temper and said "Longyan is delighted" and shouted three good words in succession, "What a move to 'dig out the heart and decapitate'"  Action! Order Li Zongren and Gu Zhutong to immediately attack on all fronts when the Japanese army is leaderless! The Tianhui No. 2 combat plan has been launched! The restoration of the country in one fell swoop is right in front of us!"

    "Yes!" The national army generals stood at attention together and solemnly accepted the order.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
