Cross the Songhu battlefield and rise to become the most powerful warlord

686 The Terror of the Devil

As Ye Qingshan decided to launch a counterattack, the first to start was naturally Xiao Shanling's army that was counterattacking westwards.

Just three days after Ye Qingshan issued the order for a counterattack, that is, on March 15th.

Xiaoshan ordered the 89-man th Army's eight regiments to move westward from Quzhou.

At the same time, the aviation team in southern Zhejiang took the lead and began aerial reconnaissance of the northern Jiangxi area.

We engaged in a fight with the Japanese reconnaissance planes and fighter planes in advance.

The Japanese garrison in northern Jiangxi soon received news of the 89th Army's unusual movements. The Japanese commander sensed something was wrong and ordered all Japanese troops in northern Jiangxi to enter the highest state of alert.

Then, the news was reported to the Japanese headquarters.

"What? Are there any unusual movements by the Chinese troops in southern Zhejiang?

Marching towards northern Jiangxi?"

In the Japanese headquarters in Nanjing, the old Japanese soldier Nishio Hisazo was also surprised when he received the news from northern Jiangxi.

At the same time, it quickly awakened Nishio Toshizo's hatred for Ye Qingshan.

After all, in order to annihilate Ye Qingshan's troops in southern Zhejiang, the Japanese did not hesitate to use heavy troops to launch an attack on Ye Qingshan's troops in southern Zhejiang.

But in the end, not only did they fail to achieve their goal, but their attacking forces suffered heavy losses.

The most important thing is that a group of young and well-connected key generals were lost.

Among them is his brother-in-law.

Until now, his brother-in-law is still being held in a prisoner-of-war camp in southern Zhejiang.

Nishio Toshizo once secretly sent envoys to find Ye Qingshan several times, hoping to negotiate to get back his brother-in-law, the captured Japanese prince, and his own Japanese general.

But unfortunately, they were all rejected by Ye Qingshan.

Each of these captured Japanese princes and generals has a very strong background.

Most of them in the Japanese country come from big families, but how could Ye Qingshan bear to let go of such high-quality "hostages"?

These people are the few means that Ye Qingshan currently has to retaliate against the Japanese invaders for their massacre of civilians.

During the following period of time, Ye Qingshan would always hear that the Japanese were massacring civilians somewhere.

Ye Qingshan would give orders to cut some parts off the body of the Japanese Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko, take photos of them and publish them in newspapers to humiliate the Japanese royal family.

Or they would chop off the heads of two captured Japanese generals, publish the heads in the newspapers, and then send the heads to the old Japanese named Nishio Hisazo.

Such brutal and cruel means finally frightened the high-ranking Japanese generals such as Nishio Toshizo.

This allows them to have more control over the Japanese at the grassroots level.

Otherwise, Nishio Toshizo and many of his Japanese generals were worried that the next head they saw sent by Ye Qingshan would be that of their loved ones.

Because Ye Qingshan led his troops to Myanmar and went to the United States for the second time, which lasted for a year.

The 89th Army stationed in southern Zhejiang has always been relatively honest.

Although there have been small battles with the surrounding Japs, no large-scale battles have occurred.

In addition, the battles that broke out between the National Army and the Japanese in other places caused the old Japanese soldier Nishio Hisazo to gradually ignore southern Zhejiang.

And now, the unusual movements of the 89th Army once again made the old Japanese soldier Nishio Hisazo alert.

"Yes, Your Excellency the Commander.

According to our information, Ye Qingshan just returned from the United States a few days ago.

Then, there were unusual movements in the 89th Army under his command stationed in southern Zhejiang.

It is obvious that this cunning guy is unwilling to be lonely and is going to lead the attack again.

His target this time is most likely northern Jiangxi and Nanchang City.

As long as they recapture Nanchang City, they will be able to cut off the supply line of our 11th Army commanded by Anami Korechika in western Hunan.

By then, our offensive in western Hunan will surely fail."

The Japanese Chief of Staff Seishirō Itagaki next to him was also looking at the map and said to the old Japanese soldier Hisazo Nishio.

"Baga, why didn't that bastard Ye Qingshan die in America?

Why are you back again?

He is a madman who is eager to mobilize troops as soon as he returns. "

When the old devil Nishio Shouzo thought of Ye Qingshan, his anger surged up again and he yelled cursing.

"Didn't His Majesty arrange for the fat guy's Special High Section to send someone to the United States to assassinate Ye Qingshan?

How can I get him back?

Fatty is becoming more and more useless.

The cabinet allocates so much money to him every year for nothing."

After the old Japanese soldier Nishio Hisazo finished scolding Ye Qingshan, he still felt unhappy, so he also scolded Kenji Doiyuan from the Japanese Special High Section.

Seeing Nishio Toshizo so angry, Commander Itagaki Seiji beside him sighed and said helplessly: "Doi-maru, you have done your best.

The Special High Section also sent a group of elite agents to the United States to carry out the assassination of Ye Qingshan.

But unfortunately, for some reason, the American intelligence agencies over there kept a close eye on our intelligence personnel.

Most people were exposed before they even entered the country.

The few agents who had sneaked into the United States didn't stand a chance against Ye Qingshan, who was heavily protected.

We still underestimated Ye Qingshan's power in the United States.

This guy is so lucky that he married the only daughter of a large American conglomerate family.

It is said that they now have established relations with the DuPont family and are protected by the military and those big financial groups.

It is simply impossible to kill Ye Qingshan in the United States.

We lost hundreds of elite agents for nothing."

Commander Itagaki Seiji sighed and shook his head as he spoke.

When the meeting was held to vote on the action of sending agents from the Special High Police to the United States to assassinate Ye Qingshan.

He also voted in favor.

But unfortunately, it is now obviously a failure.

Commander Itagaki Seiji and Nishio Hisazo, the two old Japanese soldiers, had no idea about the assassination of Ye Qingshan by the special agent killers they sent.

Ye Qingshan himself didn't know anything at all.

These people didn't even have the chance to get close to Ye Qingshan. They were exposed one after another and then were dealt with by British and American agents.

He was killed by someone arranged by Joseph.

Joseph was not even prepared to tell Ye Qingshan about such a small matter.

Do you really think Ye Qingshan has been safe in the United States for these few months?

In fact, the struggle between various forces has been going on behind the scenes.

"Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, now we should not dwell on whether Ye Qingshan died in the United States.

The important thing is how to defend northern Jiangxi.

To deal with the attack launched by Ye Qingshan."

“According to the intelligence we collected previously about the 42th Army of the 89nd Army under Ye Qingshan.

At present, the number of troops in his 89th Army is about to .

They are also well-equipped, with all weapons being American.

In terms of firepower, it is even stronger than us.

If Ye Qingshan really commands the 89th Army to attack northern Jiangxi this time, then northern Jiangxi will be in danger.

At this time, we only had an understaffed division in northern Jiangxi, with less than 30,000 people.

Even if we include the local imperial army, the total force is only about 50,000 people."
