I am Jiang Weiguo in World War II

(In history, China and the Soviet Union signed the "Sino-Soviet Non-Aggression Treaty" in Nanjing on August 1937, 8, and the treaty was limited to five years.

）

"Look at the main content of the treaty!" Chiang Kai-shek handed over a document, "With the signing of this treaty, we will receive a lot of assistance from the Soviet Union, including the Soviet Flying Tigers!"

Jiang Weiguo took the document and read it carefully. There are three main points in the treaty: first, China and the Soviet Union will not engage in armed aggression against each other; , the other country shall not directly or indirectly assist a third country; third, this treaty does not change or affect other treaties signed by China and the Soviet Union.

Objectively speaking, the Soviet Union's attitude towards China reflected in this treaty is very friendly, and it will also allow China to obtain a large amount of valuable assistance.

原先历史上，中日战争爆发后、苏德战争爆发前，苏联累计援助中国飞机1000多架（苏联飞虎队）、坦克80多辆、汽车1500多辆、火炮1100多门、机枪9700多挺、机枪子弹1700多万发、步枪5万支、步枪子弹1.67亿发、炸弹3.1万多颗、炮弹187万发、另有飞机零件、汽油等大批的军用物资。

"Wei'er, you know that," Chiang Kai-shek said earnestly, "The Anti-Japanese War broke out, and it is really difficult for our country to deal with Japan independently. We must obtain external assistance from international powers. At present, Germany is basically the only one who assists us. If the Soviet Union also helps us For us, that is the icing on the cake, even a timely gift.

Aid is definitely better.

However, Germany and the Soviet Union are potential rivals. We are very dependent on Germany. Signing a non-aggression pact with the Soviet Union at this time will easily arouse suspicion in Germany. (Chiang Kai-shek did not want to maintain a long-term cooperative and mutually beneficial relationship with the Soviet Union, because the Soviet Union was the stronghold of the red forces, so Chiang Kai-shek was very vigilant and wary), and at the same time lost Germany, a traditional friend.

Weier, you play a leading role in foreign affairs with Germany, and Hitler also has a personal relationship with you, so this matter will be handed over to your overseas department!"

Jiang Weiguo closed the document and handed it back to Chiang Kai-shek: "Father, don't worry, this matter is on my shoulders!" He had already told Hitler about this matter when he visited Germany, and he would definitely express his understanding when he informed Hitler. So it's not difficult.

Jiang Weiguo's Overseas Department mainly does four major things: the first is Sino-German cooperation (in fact, a large part of Sino-German diplomatic affairs has been undertaken by the Overseas Department instead of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs), the second is Sino-Jewish cooperation, and the third is overseas Chinese. As for exchanges and mutual assistance with the motherland, the fourth is the intelligence agency "National Government Overseas Investigation and Statistics Bureau" (Maritime Statistics Bureau, Maritime Statistics Bureau).

The current Maritime Statistics Bureau is in a very low-key initial stage of construction, and is mainly responsible for the reserve army and the construction of the reserve army, the eastern migration, and the construction of national defense projects.

Jiang Weiguo is no longer the nine-rank sesame official of the "Assistant of the Overseas Liaison Office of the Nationalist Government". Because his rank has been promoted to lieutenant colonel, and the Shanghai Bureau of Statistics is very low-key, it seems that it is only a small department, so he is justified. He became the director of the Maritime Statistics Bureau.

Jiang Weiguo supported the signing of the non-aggression pact between China and the Soviet Union. Although he hated the Soviet Union and the Soviet Union, he knew that the aid provided by the Soviet Union was a timely rain that China desperately needed. Moreover, first, China took the benefits of the Soviet Union and did not owe it to China. The kindness of the Soviet Union. After all, the Soviet Union only used China to counter Japan. The Sino-Soviet cooperation is "mutual use" to put it bluntly; second, if China cooperates with Germany to fight the Soviet Union in the future, although it is really despicable to tear up the non-aggression treaty, it doesn't matter. , In Hitler's words, treaties are meant to be torn up.

What's more, in history, the Soviet Union betrayed China in World War II. Among the member states of the Allied Powers, the Soviet Union was the only country that recognized "Manchukuo" and the only one that signed a mutual agreement with Japan, a member of the Axis Powers. The country that violated the treaty finally saw that Japan was about to end, and the Soviet Union still tore up the Soviet-Japanese non-aggression treaty. In addition, there was the infamous "Yalta Conference". The Soviet Union saw that China was useless (because the United States and Japan start a war), immediately turn their faces and slaughter China fiercely.

For a country or person that is shameless and mercenary, it is only natural to retaliate with an eye.

Jiang Weiguo is now an out-and-out and well-known "pro-German faction" in the national government. He hates Japan, the Soviet Union and Russia, and hates the United States. After he came to this time and space, he deeply understood the Japanese The ugliness of Russia, the treachery of Soviet Russia, and the shamelessness of the United States are more unforgettable than reading history books in later generations.

In later generations, many Chinese youths praised the United States as "the hope of the world" and "the savior who saved the world during World War II." Jiang Weiguo (Meng Xiang) originally had this kind of thinking, but after coming to this time and space, he no longer has this kind of "gratitude" America" ​​thinking, although he can't talk about "anti-American", but he is extremely "anti-American".

As we all know, in the original history, although China entered a substantive state of war with Japan as early as July 1937, 7, it was not until December 7, 1941, the day after the Pearl Harbor Incident broke out, that the United States declared war on Japan. , before officially declaring war on Japan.

Many people in later generations despised the Nationalist government because of this, thinking that the Nationalist government had no backbone, and only dared to declare war after seeing the Americans declare war on Japan.

On this issue, first of all, it was really difficult for the national government at that time. It was very difficult to fight against Japan alone for four and a half years. When did the United States join the war against Japan, so I was very panicked); secondly, few people in later generations have thought about a question: China did not declare war on Japan until the end of 1941, so did Japan declare war on China?The answer to this question is: During the eight years of the Anti-Japanese War, Japan has not officially declared war on China.

This seems very strange, but it is inevitable, because there are two major reasons. One is that after the establishment of the Wang puppet government, Japan only recognized the Wang puppet government as China's legitimate sovereign government, and did not recognize the Chongqing government as China's legitimate sovereign government. Naturally, the sovereign government cannot declare war on the Chongqing government in the name of politics; second, once Japan declares war on China, it will lose the "aid" of the United States.

Why do you say that?Because the United States has a set of "Neutrality Laws", the US government, which claims to love peace, does not participate in wars, does not interfere in the world order, and does not intervene in other countries' wars, uses this set of "Neutrality Laws" to pretend to declare to the world that "the United States is in a state of war. The country imposes an embargo on arms and military supplies.” Therefore, if Japan does not declare war on China, the United States can continue to sell arms and military supplies to Japan wantonly.

In fact, all fools know that China and Japan have essentially entered a state of war. The Japanese army is invading China, occupying China’s land, plundering China’s wealth and resources, and massacring Chinese civilians. However, Japan has not officially declared war on China, so the United States The government pretended to be confused by claiming that "Japan is not a country participating in the war." It was justifiable, justified, open-minded, and peaceful, and sold to Japan the arms, steel, oil, and rubber that Japan, a country with scarce resources, urgently needed when it invaded China. , thus making a lot of war fortune, and regardless of the banknotes they earned from the Japanese were stained with the blood and tears of the Chinese.

While the Americans were distributing war money full of Chinese blood and tears, they were worried that the Japanese would really destroy China, annex China, and then threaten the Americans themselves, so they imposed certain restrictions. In the end, the Japanese jumped the wall in a hurry and blew up the pearls Only then did the Americans, who reaped the fruits of their own suffering, put on a righteous face and participated in the war against Japan and the entire world war.

How much arms and military supplies did the Americans sell to the Japanese? In 1937, 1938, and 1939, in the three years before China’s Anti-Japanese War, and in the three most difficult years in China, the total amount of materials imported by Japan from the United States exceeded 2 million U.S. dollars every year, and the arms and military materials in these three years The shares accounted for 58%, 66%, and 81% respectively; from these data and proportions, it is not difficult to see that with the deepening of the war of aggression against China, Japan has become more and more dependent on the supplies of the United States, and at the end of 1937, the Nanking The massacre, peace-loving Americans who talk about human rights all day long howled to express their sympathy for China and condemned Japan. At the same time, they increased US-Japan trade and sold more arms to Japan.

After the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War and before the outbreak of the US-Japanese War, the United States sold a total of US$5 million in arms to Japan, accounting for about [-]% of the total value of all weapons and equipment used by the Japanese army.

$5 million equals 5000 fighter jets.

Ironically, in China's most difficult days, the United States, China's future ally and Japan's future enemy, sold arms to Japan in a big way, while China's future enemy and Japan's ally, Germany, was selling arms to China.

Therefore, Jiang Weiguo likes Germany and hates the United States.

If the Japanese attack Pearl Harbor in the future (if it is still the same as the original history), Jiang Weiguo just wants to say to the Americans: "First, you deserve it! Second, send your mother's war money! Third, pretend to be your mother's justice ! China does not owe you the United States! Don't pretend to be a savior in front of China!"

It is worth mentioning that the Japanese government deliberately did not declare war on China, and it can also secretly change concepts and use forceful words to deny and sophistry the war atrocities, crimes, and bestialities committed by the Japanese army. The logic of the Japanese is this: We Japan did not treat China Declared war, so China and Japan are not belligerent countries, so after the Japanese army captures Chinese soldiers, they don’t need to provide them with prisoner-of-war treatment according to the "Geneva Convention", and they can even kill them justifiably, because China and Japan are not belligerent countries, so they are not prisoners!Of course we do not violate the international law of war by killing them!Even if the Japanese army killed people in China, it would not violate the international law of war, because what broke out between China and Japan was only an "armed conflict", not a war.

Chapter 152 Shanghai (1)

After bidding farewell to Chiang Kai-shek, Jiang Weiguo first went to the Overseas Department and handed over the task of "secretly communicating with Germany" to the Overseas Department. In addition, Jiang Weiguo had just greeted Chiang Kai-shek and planned to recall Gu Weijun, the ambassador to France, back to the country. Appointed him as Deputy Minister of Overseas Affairs.

The original deputy minister was Zhu Jiahua, and Zhu Jiahua was also the deputy minister of the Ministry of Military Industry, so he was too busy to do his best.

Jiang Weiguo needs senior diplomatic talents like Gu Weijun to take care of the two major issues of "Sino-Germany Cooperation" and "Sino-Jewish Cooperation" in the overseas department (Gu Weijun is a member of the Beiyang Government. After the collapse of the Beiyang Government, he became a wanted criminal by the Nationalist Government, but He is addicted to being an official, unwilling to be lonely, and gained a place in the national government by bribing Song Ziwen and his wife. Jiang Weiguo is now recruiting him, so he naturally couldn't ask for it).

"Secretary seat!" Outside the office of the director of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics of the Overseas Department, a man in his thirties who looked like a scholar waited for Jiang Weiguo with a smile on his face.

Jiang Weiguo is the director of the Bureau of Maritime Statistics, but he is in name only, and is only responsible for tasks and salary payments. The man in front of him is the deputy director of the Bureau of Maritime Statistics, who is in charge of the construction, development, and operations of the Bureau of Maritime Statistics.

This person's surname is Shu Mingsheng, his surname is Guosheng, he is just like his name, he looks like a harmless, gentle and gentle teacher, he speaks softly, smiles and nods when he sees people, has a gentle temper, never gets angry, but Not an easy character.

Shu Guosheng is a graduate of the tenth batch of Whampoa Military Academy, and he and Xiao Yao were classmates at the same time.

When Jiang Weiguo started to set up the Haitong Bureau, Xiao Yao recommended Shu Guosheng to come over.

At that time, Jiang Weiguo contacted Himmler, the head of the German Gestapo, and hired 300 special agent instructors from the Gestapo. Delici.

A total of more than 1000 members of the Maritime Statistics Bureau have received rigorous training from Heydrich and other Gestapo instructors. These more than 1000 people are the backbone of the Maritime Statistics Bureau. First, because of his mediocre hands-on ability, he almost failed live ammunition shooting and hand-to-hand combat, but Heydrich gave Shu Guosheng the highest evaluation. He said: "I found an oriental version of me!" Shu Guosheng has two Nicknames, the first nickname is his surname Shu Mingsheng, Shu Sheng homophonic "scholar", and he usually dresses like a literati scholar, so Jiang Weiguo half-jokingly and half-seriously gave him the nickname "Death Scholar" (Jiang Weiguo Of course it’s a spoof), but this unintentional nickname soon earned its name; the second nickname was "Mouse", because Shu Guosheng was often called "Old Shu" by others, and the pronunciation resembled "Mouse". It also quickly deserved its name.

"Mr. Shu is called a 'scholar' because he is indeed like a scholar. He is well-spoken, modest, knowledgeable, and personable. Hidden with cunning scheming and insidious methods, the second son called him a "death-killing scholar", which is indeed worthy of the name.

Fortunately, Mr. Shu's scheming and means are all to deal with the enemy, and the enemy in his eyes is the person who hinders the second son, not only from abroad, but also from home!" A senior official of the Maritime Bureau said behind his back.

"Mr. Shu is also known as 'Mr. Mouse' or 'Mouse', because what he likes, is passionate about, and is best at is hiding in the dark to spy on other people's behavior, eavesdrop on other people's words, and steal other people's things. a mouse.

Speaking of it, both Mr. Dai and Mr. Xu are shrewd, capable, treacherous and cunning people, but both Mr. Dai and Mr. Xu have weaknesses. Mr. Dai is greedy for sex and power, Mr. Xu is fond of wealth and fame, and Mr. Shu is indifferent to fame and wealth, pure in heart and ascetic, clean and self-disciplined. , he is even more loyal to the second son, he has almost no weaknesses, the only thing he is greedy for is other people's secrets, but this is his job!" A senior official of the national government said behind his back.

"Old Shu, what's the matter?" Jiang Weiguo looked at Shu Guosheng.

Shu Guosheng reported with a smile: "Boss, the batch of high-level captives you brought back from Pingjin and handed over to the Maritime Administration have all been interrogated and drained. What should we do next?"

Jiang Weiguo immediately knew what Shu Guosheng was referring to. After the Battle of Pingjin ended with a complete victory for the national army, the national army not only captured more than 300 Japanese prisoners on the battlefield, but also captured forty or fifty Japanese soldiers in Pingjin City. These Japanese prisoners are not regarded as Japanese soldiers, but they are "Japanese soldiers", including Taijiro Matsui, General Adviser of the 29th Army, Tokutaro Sakurai, Advisor to the Jicha Political Affairs Committee, Tadsuke Terahira, Advisor to the Beiping City Government, and Tajiro Matsui, Advisor to the Jicha Saito Kuriya, the Japanese secretary of the Political Affairs Committee, etc. These Japanese people did not wear military uniforms, but they all had Japanese military ranks. For example, Matsui Tajiro was the Japanese army's chief officer, and Sakurai Tokutaro was the Japanese army's second officer. More than that, these Japanese people seemed to be in China. Those who serve as advisors to the government and the local Chinese military are actually Japanese spies who infiltrated the Hebei-Chahar Political Affairs Committee and the 29th Army. For example, Matsui Tajiro’s official identity is the Japanese Mei Agency’s Beiping Special Task Agency. Chief, Tokutaro Sakurai is the deputy head of the agency.

Although this seems strange, how can the Chinese government and the Chinese military tolerate Japanese agents, Japanese spies infiltrating themselves?In fact, this is not surprising. On the one hand, Tahisa Matsui, Tokutaro Sakurai and others all have "legal identities" on the surface; Three years ago, Song Zheyuan didn't want to completely turn against the Japanese before the war, so he turned a blind eye.

After the outbreak of the Battle of Pingjin, these Japanese spies were all captured except for those who were killed in the arrest due to arrest or resistance. When Jiang Weiguo brought the Japanese prisoners back to Nanjing, he also brought the Japanese spies prisoners back to Nanjing. The latter will be handed over to the Maritime Bureau for interrogation. Of course, this "interrogation" means torture that makes life worse than death.

"Since the value has been squeezed out, let's deal with it!" Jiang Weiguo felt that Shu Guosheng's problem was superfluous, "Secret, keep it clean!"

Shu Guosheng nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, the boss, the world evaporates, it must be clean!"

Jiang Weiguo exhorted: "Do you remember the list I gave you last time?"

Shu Guosheng's expression became serious: "I remember.

Wang Jingwei, Chen Bijun, Chen Gongbo, Zhou Fohai, Mei Siping, Huang Jun... We have launched secret surveillance on these people.

The office seat, after the Songhu Anti-Japanese War five years ago, Zhou Fohai built a garden-style house at No. [-] Xiliuwan, Nanjing. During the construction, he specially built a basement with complete facilities and a large space under the flower shop. In preparation for the Japanese air raid on Nanjing.

When we monitored Zhou Fohai, we found that dozens of high-level government officials often held informal gatherings in the basement of his house. These people named this basement "low-key club". It is said that they often discuss in this basement Most of the speeches were pessimistic and negative, and most of the participants were the pro-Japanese faction and peace faction in the government!"

"Oh?" Jiang Weiguo was a little surprised, "Strengthen the monitoring of this 'low-key club'!" Batch after batch, they will become capitulators or even traitors.

After explaining the task to Shu Guosheng, Jiang Weiguo left the Overseas Department, and Yang Mei, who was by his side, looked at him with puzzled and surprised eyes all the way.

"Why do you keep staring at me? Do you think your husband and I have become handsome again recently?" Jiang Weiguo was shameless and boastful. He lit a cigarette, looked up at the sky with a sad expression on his face, and said in a heavy and regretful tone, "His mother Yes! If I continue to be so handsome, how will I let other men live!"

Yang Mei's expression became extremely difficult, and she was completely speechless. She could only use the word "depressed" to describe her mood.

Yang Mei was very speechless to Jiang Weiguo's self-promotional and narcissistic behavior, but she was also helpless because she couldn't refute it.

Jiang Weiguo's behavior is completely "pretentious" in the language of later generations, but what makes people helpless is that he is a powerful person, he is a "beautiful" person, after all, "a bully" People pretending to be x", others can't call him "stupid x" in their hearts.

After choking for a while, Yang Mei managed to hold back the feeling of not knowing what words to use to describe it: "I think...you are so strange..."

"What's so strange?"

"Isn't Wang Wenying your good friend? But you sent someone to spy on his father..."

"One yard is one yard!" Of course Jiang Weiguo couldn't tell Yang Mei that he deliberately "closed" to Wang Wenying to prevent Wang Jingwei from surrendering after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War and becoming the biggest traitor in modern Chinese history.

Half an hour later, Jiang Weiguo arrived at the station of the 128th Regiment and conveyed Chiang Kai-shek's order to the 128th Regiment to set off for Shanghai.

"Brothers..." Zheng Dongguo, who was holding the order document, trembled with excitement, "It's our turn to play!"

The cheers of the whole group were like thunder and the morale was like a rainbow.

After the September 1932th Incident, Japan invaded Northeast China and established the puppet regime "Manchukuo", which aroused widespread opposition from the international powers. The international powers opposed Japan not because they sympathized with China and "wanted to uphold justice for China", but because Japan This move has harmed their interests in China, and the powers are worried that Japan will continue to increase its strength after seizing a large area of ​​China and obtaining a large amount of resources in China, which will then pose a threat to them, so they "grouped and attacked" Japan. The Japanese high-level officials decided to create an armed incident in Shanghai, an international metropolis, and launched a "fake war" with ulterior motives in order to divert international attention, which led to the outbreak of the Songhu War of Resistance on January 1, 28 (January [-]th Incident) .

China and Japan finally signed the "Songhu Armistice Agreement". According to the agreement, Shanghai is a demilitarized zone, and regular Chinese troops are not allowed to station in Shanghai. Japan can station a marine corps in Shanghai (this marine corps is the same as the Japanese army stationed in North China. Like the Japanese infantry brigade, it has no official designation and is called the "Japanese Navy Special Marine Corps"), with a total strength of more than 3000. In addition, more than 1000 veterans can be urgently mobilized from the Japanese expats in Shanghai, and the Japanese army in Shanghai has reserves Armed with more than 1000 weapons and equipment, the actual total strength of the Japanese army in Shanghai has reached more than 4000; The police corps, the former has a total strength of more than 4000, and the latter has a total strength of more than 1000.

The Jiangsu Provincial Security Corps includes more than a dozen regiments. The two regiments sent to Shanghai are naturally elite and elite. Although they are not regular troops in name, they are actually regular troops, and they are out-and-out German armed forces. , equipment, and firepower are exactly the same as those of the German Armor Division. The two regiments form the Shanghai Municipal Security Corps. The chief and first regiment leader is Colonel Ji Zhangjian, and the deputy chief and second regiment leader is Colonel Sun Tianfang; as for the Shanghai Police Corps, most of its members are actually soldiers, and their weapons and equipment are the same as those of German weapons divisions.

These more than 5000 security guards and police officers are the regular army.

The more than 128 national troops in Shanghai and the more than [-] Japanese troops are almost the same in terms of weapons and equipment, because the Japanese marines are not equipped with heavy weapons, and the national army generally lacks heavy weapons. In terms of the quality of soldiers, the national army is definitely inferior to the Japanese army , In terms of spiritual will and morale, the two sides can be considered a tie, but the Japanese army has a fortification that is almost indestructible and well-equipped. Therefore, if the two sides fight, the Shanghai National Army alone will definitely not be able to win. For additional troops, the [-]th regiment is naturally the most suitable.

Although Jiang Weiguo has nothing to do with the 128th Regiment in terms of military establishment, everyone knows that the 128th Regiment, like the 918th Regiment, is a unit of Jiang Weiguo. The 128 regiments went to Shanghai together, and Jiang Weiguo immediately played a "significant role".

The 918th Regiment took an artillery regiment with it when it went to North China, and the 128th Regiment also took an artillery regiment, the 14th Artillery Regiment, with the blessing of Jiang Weiguo when it went to East China.

The regiment, like the 10th Artillery Regiment, is a mechanized heavy artillery regiment. Its strength is slightly inferior to that of the 10th Artillery Regiment, but its firepower is equally strong. It is known as the second in the country, second only to the 10th Artillery Regiment. The whole regiment has 36 mende Made 150mm heavy howitzers, the head of the regiment, Colonel Huang Guoshu, is an artillery expert officer who is proficient in artillery operations like Peng Mengji (Peng Mengji, Huang Guoshu, and Zou Zuohua are collectively known as the "Three Masters of National Army Artillery").

It is worth mentioning that the artillery force of the national army at this time was very weak. Although most of the divisions had divisional artillery battalions, the artillery was not only inferior in performance, but also very small in number and low in firepower. The regular artillery force consisted of 4 artillery brigades , 6 independent artillery regiments, the 10th and 14th artillery regiments are two of them. These two regiments are the only two mechanized heavy artillery regiments in the national army. Their firepower exceeds the so-called artillery brigade, ranking first in the national army respectively. and second.

Of course, these two regiments are basically the results of Jiang Weiguo's army building.

That night, the 128th Regiment and the 14th Artillery Regiment were divided into multiple batches and traveled from Nanjing to Shanghai by land and water. Some officers and soldiers and major heavy weapons traveled down the Yangtze River on ships, and some officers and soldiers took the train all the way east.

The 128th Regiment was greatly strengthened like the 918th Regiment before entering the war. The whole regiment had more than 1 officers and soldiers, and the 14th Artillery Regiment had more than 2600 officers and soldiers. Caliber artillery, more than 1.3 tanks and armored vehicles, the strength can be called powerful, and in the 40th regiment (the 400th regiment was originally called "Mechanized Infantry Regiment", and later became "Armored Infantry Regiment", now called "Armored Regiment", Strictly speaking, the 128th Regiment is an armored infantry regiment, because the number of tanks in this regiment is half that of the 128th Regiment, and the 128th Regiment is the real armored regiment) and behind the 918th Artillery Regiment, there are also the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps and The 918nd Division Independent Brigade followed closely behind. The two units totaled more than 14 officers and soldiers (there are six regiments in the teaching corps, three are in Nanjing, and three are training), all of which are German mechanized elites.

The Teaching Corps is led by Major General Zhou Zhenqiang, the Deputy Commander, and Major General Qiu Qingquan, the Chief of Staff. Lieutenant General Gui Yongqing, the Commander, is currently in England to attend the coronation ceremony of King George VI of the United Kingdom. Leading the team (Brigade Commander Zhong Song is being trained in Lushan).

The 2nd Division Independent Brigade is also called the 2nd Independent Brigade and the 2nd Supplementary Brigade. It is not an ordinary army, it is a German weapon division, just under the banner of a brigade.

There were only eight divisions in the first batch of German weapon divisions of the national army, and the other two were the teaching corps and the 2nd independent brigade.

In addition to the 918th Regiment and the 128th Regiment, the five units with the highest level of mechanization in the national army are the 36th, 87th, and 88th Divisions, the Teaching Corps, and the 2nd Independent Brigade. The brigade commander Zhong Song is also a member A mighty general of the national army (historically, during the Civil War, Zhong Song fought repeatedly and tenaciously with Peng Shuai on the Northwest battlefield, and was called "the unbeatable Zhong Song" by Peng Shuai.

).

第128团、第14炮兵团、教导总队、第2独立旅以及正在陆续向上海开拔的胡宗南部第1军（下辖第1、第78师）、黄杰部第8军（下辖第2、第166师）、李玉堂部第3师等部合编为即将成为投入上海战场、淞沪会战的第一批部队第9集团军（第4师和第89师组成第13军，正在汤恩伯率领下参加平津会战）。

There is no doubt that the members of the Ninth Army are all elite soldiers.

At 8 o'clock in the morning on August 2, the leading troops of the 128th Regiment arrived in Jiaxing, and they were about to become the first regular army of the national army to return to Shanghai after the end of the Songhu Anti-Japanese War.

"Change clothes!" Zheng Dongguo ordered loudly.

The officers and soldiers quickly and silently took off their German military uniforms and changed into the uniforms of the Jiangsu Provincial Security Corps. The armored soldiers and artillerymen covered the tanks, armored vehicles, and artillery densely with thick rainproof canvas.

Under the night with a bright moon and few stars, the "rustling" footsteps of the officers and soldiers enveloped the troops' advance path in a special solemn and solemn atmosphere.
