Chapter 1313 Zhejiang-Fujian Theater

The Zhejiang-Fujian Battle finally came to an end, and Yinjiang finally held it. Principal Chang, who was far away in Chongqing, could finally breathe a sigh of relief and have a good sleep.

It happened to be raining again in Chongqing, and the weather began to turn colder.

In a happy mood and coincided with the good weather, Principal Chang slept beautifully.

The next morning, President Chang was energetic and summoned aides from all levels of the attendant's office and a group of senior generals from the command of the National Government to gather in Yunxiu Tower.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, the participants arrived.

"The principal is here!" With the long call from the guard Wang Shihe, the staff and senior generals in the conference room stood up, stood attentively, and then saluted at the door.

Amid the footsteps, Principal Chang, dressed in military uniform, entered in a straight face.

Principal Chang shaved his beard and repaired his head today, making him look radiant.

As soon as he walked into the door, Principal Chang pressed his hands repeatedly, signaling everyone to sit down.

After everyone sat down, Principal Chang walked to the main seat and sat down, and asked Lin Wei: "Weiran, has the result of the enemy's staff in the Zhejiang-Fujian Battle come to fruition?"

"Go back to the principal, you have reported it." Lin Wei stood up and replied.

"It's already reported." Principal Chang nodded happily and continued, "Then let's rejoice for everyone."

"Yes." Lin Wei immediately picked up the folder in front of him and opened his mind, "The Zhejiang-Fujian Battle officially started on July 20th and ended today, and lasted for a total of 26 days!"

"During these twenty-six days, the Xinsheng Battle, the Wuyi-Songyang Battle and the Yinjiang Defense Battle were carried out three battles."

"The Xinsheng Campaign annihilated an infantry brigade of the Japanese army, the Wuyi-Songyang Campaign annihilated a special division of the Japanese army, and although the Yinjiang Defense Battle did not annihilate the Japanese army in an integrated manner, the results of the battle are quite good."

"According to statistics, a total of more than 40,000 Japanese troops were killed and wounded in the entire Zhejiang-Fujian Battle!"

"More than 30,000 guns, more than 1,000 artillery pieces, and thousands of vehicles of various types are seized. I won't read the specific numbers. If anyone is interested, he can go to the archives at any time to review them."

"Of course, the biggest result of the Zhejiang-Fujian Battle is to defend Yinjiang."

As soon as he finished speaking, Principal Chang continued: "Well, the biggest result of this battle was to defend Yinjiang, which completely shattered the combat intentions formulated by the Japanese army before the war! After defending Yinjiang City, he also defended Yinjiang's industrial manufacturing base, and the next stage of the protracted war of resistance would have a material foundation."

Everyone in the meeting was excited when they heard this.

In the past month and nearly two months, although Yinjiang is in war, construction has never stopped.

So far, more than 3,000 factories have been completed and put into production, and the industrial products they produce cover small hardware, food, textiles, medicines, chemicals and even arms.

For example, for arms, Yinjiang Arsenal has now built a submachine gun production line and a bullet workshop, which can produce 1,000 Yinjiang submachine guns plus more than one million bullets per month.

After pausing, President Chang said again: "The status of Yinjiang is becoming more and more important, and it will inevitably become a thorn in the eyes of the Japanese invaders. If nothing unexpected happens, the main task of the Japanese invaders in the future should be to invade Yinjiang. The rest of the battlefields in the country should be able to take a breath."

The congregation began to nod at the same time.

The current situation is that Yinjiang has become a target for the Japanese.

Next, Yinjiang will definitely become the key target of the Japanese army!

"So, we must arrange the defense of Yinjiang!" After pausing for a while, President Chang continued, "Because holding on to Yinjiang is not only to protect our only remaining industrial base, but also to attract the main force of the Japanese invaders and cover up the war of resistance on the rest of the battlefields in the country. In short, defending Yinjiang will become the focus of work!"

The members of the congregation looked like they were old gods and had obviously been mentally prepared for this.

In fact, before coming, these senior generals of the Party and the country had already heard the news.

Sure enough, President Chang quickly continued: "After careful consideration, I proposed to establish the Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone to be responsible for all matters in Zhejiang and Fujian Province, especially the anti-Japanese war in Yinjiang City, which is the focus of work! So now, let me talk about the personnel of this Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone, how should I arrange the personnel of this Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone?"

Hearing this, Chen Shi, Bai Chongbei and even He Yingpei and others opened their eyes.

Up to now, there are eight war zones in the country plus one Sulu War Zone. The Sulu Border Zone has a higher specification than the army, but half a grid lower than the war zone.

The Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone that Principal Chang planned to form should have the same specifications as the Su-Lu War Zone.

So, the minds of the senior staff and senior generals who attended the meeting immediately became lively.

Especially Chen Shi, who has always been known as the primary principal, began to make his own plans.

At present, there are actually nine war zones in China, and only one ninth war zone is in Chen Shi's hands. The original strength of the ninth war zone is the strongest among the nine war zones, with more than 500,000 troops, and all of them are elite troops, basically from the two battles in Wuhan.

But now, with the transfer of troops of the 41st Army and other units, the Ninth War Zone has been severely weakened.

Therefore, this newly established Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone, especially Yinjiang City, must be in the hands of the Civil Engineering Department, because with two war zones and Yinjiang City as backing, Chen Shi can be regarded as the real No. 2 figure in the army.

Chen Shi stood up and said, "I think that no matter whether it is qualifications, background or record, the candidate for the commander-in-chief of the Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone is Luo Zhengying."

Hearing this, He Yingpei and others immediately showed a helpless look on their faces.

Although they hate Chen Shi very much, they must admit that Chen Shi is telling the truth this time. Luo Zhengying is really the most suitable candidate for the commander-in-chief of the Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone.

First of all, Luo Zhengying has enough qualifications. He was already a division commander during the Northern Expedition and was also the oldest among the commanders-in-chief of the 41st Army in the entire army. More importantly, the 41st Army led by Luo Zhengying also participated in the Battle of Zhejiang and Fujian, and was also the decisive force in the entire Battle of Zhejiang and Fujian!

Therefore, although He Yingpei and others were a little unwilling to give up, they could only choose to default.

However, Bai Chongbei still wanted to fight for it, so he stood up and said, "Principal, I have different opinions on humble vocation."

"Is that true?" There was no emotional tendency on Principal Chang's face, and he said with a stern hand, "Jiansheng, who do you think of?"

Bai Chong said sadly: "I think that the Zhejiang-Fu War Zone has too much connection, and the commander-in-chief of the War Zone is even more important to challenge the safety of the entire war zone with one shoulder."

"So what?" said Principal Chang, "Who do you think is suitable?"
