"Hayi!"

The staff officer replied, turned around and walked away quickly.

"Report to General Kurokawa! Red Star Town has also sent out a distress call. The Chinese army's attack is too fierce. Our troops have suffered heavy casualties. If we don't get reinforcements, Red Star Town may also be lost."

Hearing this, Kurokawa Masanori came to the sand table, looked at the location of Red Star Town, frowned, and said with great resentment:

"What on earth did General Kimura do here? The entire land front was in a state of emergency as soon as the war started. Didn't he go to the front line to inspect the work?"

At this moment, Oyamada Akira raised his head and said:

"General Kurokawa Masanori! Now is not the time to ask for accountability. I think we must send troops to reinforce Red Star Town immediately. If Red Star Town falls, Shanghai will be in danger immediately."

Kurokawa Masanori stared with eyes wide open, looked at the location of Red Star Town in the sand table, and gave a helpless order:

"Order the Fifth Battalion to rush to the Red Star Town position immediately, enter the position quickly, and make sure to drive the Chinese troops back."

"Hayi!"

The staff officer responded and turned away.

Jiang Yifan looked at the busy and busy Japanese officials, and felt relieved.

In any case, the Chinese army won a great victory at the beginning of the war, caught the Japanese army off guard, and took the initiative in the war. This was a great thing.

Moreover, from this point of view, the Chinese army has been holding its breath for a long time and is determined to beat the Japanese devils to death from the very beginning of this war.

This is a burst of morale!

"General Kurokawa! Ask if the battle has started ahead of time along the coastal front? This will have a significant impact on our next strategic encirclement!"

Chief of Staff Aki Oyamada suddenly looked up at Masanori Kurokawa and asked.

"I don't think they have started the war yet, otherwise, we would have received news." At this point, Kurokawa Masanori looked at his watch again. It was only five minutes to twelve, so he answered casually:

"It's only five minutes left. I think we should not ask any more questions, so as not to affect the mood of the Marines."

"Don't the Marines know the situation here?"

Jiang Yifan couldn't help but ask curiously.

This made Miyazaki Ryui nervous. Section Chief Shimahashi couldn't help but be curious. Why did he ask so many questions? It wouldn't change the status quo, and it might even cause trouble.

"Once they have captured Fuzhou and Hong Kong, they will hand over the right to attack to the Expeditionary Force Headquarters. Then the army will begin to launch a pincer attack from the north and west."

Chief of Staff Aki Oyama looked at Jiang Yifan and explained, and circled Hongxing Town, Hangzhou, Jinling, Fuzhou, and Hong Kong with red sand on the sand table.

This circle includes the entire Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, and Yunnan.

It can be seen how big the appetite of the Japanese is, which is really shocking.

At this moment, a red telephone on the desk rang. Kurokawa Masaki looked at his watch again and said:

“The battle on the coastal front has begun.”

After he finished speaking, he picked up the phone and said, "I'm from the Expeditionary Force Command, Masanori Kurokawa! Please speak!"

"General Kurokawa, the battle has already begun on our coastal frontier positions. What is the situation there?"

A muffled voice came from the phone.

"We have already started the battle here, and the battle line is moving forward steadily."

Masaki Kurokawa said into the phone, only reporting good news and not bad news.

"Yoshi! In half an hour, we will launch a full-scale ground attack. Just wait for our good news!"

After talking on the phone, he hung up.

Kurokawa Masanori put down the phone and said, "It seems that the Chinese army did not launch an attack in advance there."

Jiang Yifan thought, if the Japanese navy didn't land in a coastal battle, would the Chinese army attack the sea? Was he crazy?

But Jiang Yifan still pretended to be relieved and said:

"As long as there are no major problems, it's fine. General Kurokawa, if there is nothing else, I will not disturb your battle command here. If there is anything, please call me."

"Yoshi!"

Kurokawa Masanori responded and then picked up another phone call.

Jiang Yifan and Miyazaki Ryujing then turned around and walked out of Kurokawa Masanori's office.

At this time, in the Ministry of National Defense in Shancheng, Gao Tianshui's office was as noisy as a pot of boiling water. The phone on his desk rang one after another, and it was difficult to handle it.

"Report to Minister Gao! The battle of our Jinling defense line has started in full swing. We have won the first battle, which can be said to have caught the Japanese army off guard. The Japanese army's 50-kilometer defense line has been completely broken through by us. We hope to reach the city of Jinling before dawn."

"Okay! Pay attention! Our main task is to destroy the enemy's manpower. While the Japanese army is in disarray, we must destroy the Japanese devils to the greatest extent possible!"

Gao Tianshui ordered loudly.

"Yes!"

As soon as Gao Tianshui put down the phone, several deputy ministers and a dozen combat staff officers surrounded him, looking at him strangely and asking:

"Minister Gao! When was this order issued? Why don't we know anything about it?"

However, before Gao Tianshui could explain, the phone rang again urgently.

Gao Tianshui gestured to several deputy ministers to wait and picked up the phone again.

"Report to Minister Gao! The battle south of Hangzhou has already started. The Japanese were caught off guard by our artillery fire and suffered heavy casualties. They have withdrawn from their positions one after another. We have also seized a large number of Japanese heavy weapons and equipment. Our troops have become even more powerful and have beaten the Japanese everywhere. Now we have retreated to the city of Hangzhou."

"Fight well! Don't give the Japanese any chance to breathe. Eliminate the Japanese devils as quickly as possible and seize their weapons and equipment. Go forward bravely, pursue them relentlessly, and don't let any of them go."

"Yes!"

Several deputy ministers and a dozen combat staff officers looked at each other in bewilderment, and could only hope that Gao Tianshui would hang up the phone quickly and give an explanation.

As soon as Gao Tianshui put down the phone, they surrounded him again. He was about to ask questions, but the phone rang again.

Yes! Needless to say, I could easily guess that it was a call from the Red Star Town front.

Several deputy ministers and a dozen combat staff officers could only shut their mouths again and listen to the content of the call.

"Report to Minister Gao! Great victory in Hongxing Town! Our troops are approaching Hongxing Town soon. Because we suddenly launched a full-scale offensive, the Japanese army was caught off guard. Now the Japanese army has been completely defeated, defenses are broken everywhere, and they are in a panic, with heavy casualties. Now they have another reinforcement brigade coming up, but our morale is high, and we have beaten the reinforcement brigade back. Now the Japanese army has retreated to Hongxing Town. I want to make dumplings and eat Hongxing Town!"
