Chapter 426 Beheading? Whose head should be beheaded?
Chapter 426 Beheading? Whose head should be beheaded?
Isn't Xue Boling very capable? How come in less than a week, the Japanese had already broken through the first line of defense that Xue Boling had carefully arranged?
Even this second line of defense is in jeopardy.
"Hmph! I want to see, when we are defeated, will the commander-in-chief punish you or me?" Tang Enbo said hatefully.
"Commander, how do you think we should respond to Commander Xue?" asked the chief of staff.
"Reply? Reply to what? Ignore him!" Tang Enbo said with his eyes wide open, turning his head.
"Yes!" The chief of staff was secretly delighted.
He was also very disliked by Xue Boling.
Let them outflank the Japanese? Wouldn't that push the 20th Corps into the fire pit?
Fighting the Japs will result in casualties.
Isn't it good now? They extorted some money from the people along the way and asked those unruly people to support the war of resistance.
It can avoid casualties and fill your pockets, so why not do it? Why rush to fight the devils?
Therefore, it would be best if the commander just ignored it, otherwise he would always find excuses to prevaricate.
It's no use trying to evade them. The commander-in-chief of the Ninth War Zone keeps urging us. It's better to just ignore them and have peace of mind.
"Report to the Commander! Telegram from the General Manager!" At this time, someone came to report from the communications room.
"Bring it here quickly!" Tang Enbo immediately became alert and started to tidy up his clothes.
He always treated the president's telegrams as if they were from his own presence and never dared to neglect them.
In the eyes of outsiders, this may be seen as flattery and sycophancy.
But in his own eyes, this is his respect for the president.
The president already knew all this.
The CEO was very concerned about his reputation, and Tang used these methods to win the CEO's favor, so he was promoted quickly.
The chief of staff at the side hurriedly took the telegram, but when he looked at it, his smiling face suddenly froze and he was speechless for a long time.
What's going on? What did the chief say? "When Tang Enbo saw the chief of staff's expression, he immediately realized that something was wrong and hurried forward to take the telegram and read it.
"What? The President... the President actually supports this Xue Boling, and he wants to be held accountable... and even beheaded?" Tang Enbo looked at the telegram in disbelief.
He stared at every word in the telegram. Although the first few sentences in the general manager's telegram were not serious, the so-called accountability was not serious and was just a show.
But later it was said that if the Chongqing defense line was breached by the Japanese, the general would find a few people to be beheaded.
Whose head should be killed?
I don’t know who the other people are, but it is certain that Tang Enbo was the one who stabbed him.
This telegram from the president should have been sent only to him, the meaning of which is self-evident.
"Commander, should we...march?" the chief of staff asked angrily, shocked.
If the general manager really wants to take action against a few people in the future, then he, the chief of staff, will not be able to escape.
Even if he escaped death, he would probably never have the chance to enjoy wealth, glory, high position and high salary in this life.
"March? March! Order the troops to march sixty kilometers a day!" Tang Enbo also reacted and said.
"Sixty kilometers? Commander, this speed may be a bit slow..." the chief of staff said in surprise.
At their speed, 300 kilometers a day is more than enough, and 60 kilometers is probably a deliberate delay.
"What do you know? The general commander is just talking. In front of so many people, he, as the supreme commander, has to put on an act, right?"
"Based on my understanding of the general manager, as long as we follow Xue Boling's orders and move to the designated location, no matter how fast or slow we are, the general manager will be fine. At most, he will reprimand us a few times. We just need to be careful and serve him. It's no big deal."
"It has rained a lot recently, so it's understandable that we are moving slowly. Sixty kilometers is already giving Xue Boling a lot of face!"
Tang Enbo thought he knew the general manager very well and said proudly.
In fact, what Tang Enbo said was correct, the general manager is indeed such a person.
This is indeed the general manager's style of doing things.
But this time he miscalculated.
The president's will to fight this time is stronger than any previous time, because this time he truly feels that his rule is threatened.
Even a few pro-Japanese people in the top leadership have already had some contact with the devils.
As for the content of their conversation, it was nothing more than that after the Japanese captured Chongqing, they directly executed the general commander and supported the pro-Japanese leader to come to power.
From now on, China will be a puppet government of the devils.
However, the president will never allow himself to be ousted, let alone his life to be threatened.
Therefore, the president was serious this time, but Tang Enbo just didn't know it.
He thought that the president would make excuses for him as he did in the past.
"Should we call Commander Xue back? That way he won't have to keep complaining about you in front of the old man," asked the chief of staff.
"Go and send a telegram and say that our 20th Corps has wiped out the Japanese harassment troops. Our troops are strictly following the orders of the commander-in-chief of the Ninth War Zone and are attacking towards the designated position." Tang Enbo raised his hand and said.
Since you can't avoid it, just delay it as long as you can.
The outcome of this battle has nothing to do with him, and he is not from the Ninth War Zone.
In fact, the entire war has nothing to do with him.
He just needs to make his own fortune. Anyway, the 20th Corps has planes. If China is fully prepared for war and is occupied by the Japanese,
He could then take a plane to transfer the gold, silver and treasures he had collected abroad, to Europe or the United States.
The rest of his life will also be one of decadence and dissipation.
Anyway, it’s not the first or second time that foreign races have ruled the Central Plains in Chinese history. The Japanese just killed more people.
But every time a dynasty changes, people die.
What China lacks the least is people...
……
Jinling, the headquarters of the Japanese Southern Front Army.
After Okamura Yasuji arrived in Nanjing, this place became his headquarters.
At this time, Neiji Okamura was looking at the map that had just been marked in front of him with ecstasy.
The battle line above shows that the locust army in the north has already penetrated deep into Hubei Province, and soon the entire Hubei Province is firmly controlled by the locust army.
Hunan Province also seized a large area of territory under the attack of the locust army in the south.
Previously, under the repeated attacks of the locust army, most of the Hunan and Hubei provinces had been occupied.
However, the Central Army realized the crisis and resisted tenaciously.
Especially in the last Battle of Changsha, the locust army was defeated and forced to give up large tracts of land.
But this time, Xue Boling miscalculated. He did not expect the locust army to change their tactics.
These two areas will soon be completely occupied by the locust army, and by then, Chongqing will be completely exposed to the iron hoof of the locust army.
It won’t be long before China is razed to the ground.
He, Neiji Okamura, will be able to wash away the shame soon.
"Eighth Route Army... Lin Tian, your doomsday is approaching..." Okamura Neiji murmured with a fierce look in his eyes.
