Chapter 46 Two Little Demons

On November 27, there were crowds outside Jiyuan City, and there were sounds of gongs and drums everywhere. When they learned that the 189th Division was going to defend Nanjing, the people in the city came spontaneously to see them off.

Tanks after tanks drove out of the city gate at a very slow speed, as enthusiastic crowds were everywhere, rushing to stuff cooked eggs into the soldiers and their own fried bread.

"When I arrive in Nanjing, I must fight the Japanese for us!" An elderly lady tried hard to stuff a basket of cooked eggs to a soldier who was walking past her, which made the soldier a little busy, wondering whether she should take the old man's things.

"Big brother, you must kill the Japanese." A little girl tried hard to lift her toes and put the wreath he wore on the neck of a little soldier. The fragrance of orchid was gently spit on the little soldier, making the little soldier's face flushed with excitement. He clenched his fist hard, and it seemed that he would fight the Japanese when he arrived in Nanjing.

At this time, not only Lu Mingxuan felt it, but even Nie Ziwen, Zheng Gousheng and all the people who went to the war were moved.

They used to be just a group of bandits. Although they were extremely majestic no matter where they went, they had been truly loved by people. When they saw people smiling sincerely, they suddenly discovered that there was another way of living in this world, a way of living that could truly be supported by the people.

It was not until this time that Lu Mingxuan felt that he had truly integrated into this era. This was an era of war of resistance. Only by entering the torrent of war of resistance could he truly gain the recognition of people of this era.

"Please take all the things and tell them that if you accept the things from the people, you have to fight the Japanese well, otherwise I won't let them go." Lu Mingxuan said. He was not that old-fashioned. Since these are the wishes of the people, then just accept them.

The soldiers who received the orders of Lu Mingxuan took the things from the villagers one after another. Just looking at their expressions, they would definitely not let the Japanese go this time.

This time, Lu Mingxuan sent a mixed tank battalion and a mixed armored artillery battalion, including 69 T34 tanks, 3 Tiger tanks, 12 Xiafei light tanks and various other wheeled and half-tracked vehicles, as well as 18 Hornet self-propelled artillery and 10 M40 155mm self-propelled artillery.

Originally, Lu Mingxuan did not plan to send out Tiger tanks because he was not very satisfied with the delicate Tiger tanks. However, considering that they had too few people to travel this time, he decided to send out three Tiger tanks for them to save the situation.

After all, the huge deterrent power of the Tiger tank is there, and it is very good to use it to defend the position. Even if the Russians encounter the position guarded by the Tiger tank, they have to take a detour.

Due to the Tiger's slow speed and huge tonnage, these three Tiger tanks have already set off in advance. Lu Mingxuan also sent several bridge-building tanks to serve them. After all, there are really not many bridges that can withstand its tonnage.

In addition, there is an independent air defense battalion composed of 27 4-mounted 20mm cyclone self-propelled anti-aircraft guns and 9 30mm spherical lightning self-propelled anti-aircraft guns, as well as two... armored infantry companies.

When Nie Ziwen learned that Lu Mingxuan planned to send only two armored infantry companies, he was completely uneasy. Until now, he kept saying in front of Lu Mingxuan: "Trial seat, there are too few infantry companies! What can only two infantry companies do?"

Lu Mingxuan could only say to him helplessly: "No!"

It’s not that he doesn’t want to give it to, but that he also has his own difficulties.

Because so far he has 5 tank battalions, a mechanized reconnaissance battalion, some heavy artillery battalions and anti-aircraft artillery battalions, but there are only 5 infantry battalions, which is more than 4,000 people. There are also some transportation and engineering units, but the number is very small, and the entire division is extremely serious.

In order to wipe their butts, he had to keep a strong enough infantry unit. And he could not send all the troops out. He had to leave enough troops in Jiyuan to avoid being held by the national army left in Luoyang.

Considering that he needed to repel the Japanese army on the other side of the Yangtze River, he estimated that the second batch of infantry could not be less than 2,000, so his infantry was extremely nervous. Only then did he get the bitter fruit of crazy expansion of tank soldiers.

"You remember that at least one infantry company must be sent to protect the artillery, and you can assign another infantry company at will." Lu Mingxuan said to Nie Ziwen.

Nie Ziwen could only roll his eyes helplessly. Should the last infantry company protect the transportation team or the division headquarters? With such an assignment, only the iron guys who can fight the tanks.

"You don't have to worry about infantry. When you arrive in Nanjing, you can ask Commander Tang to ask some troops to cooperate with you to fight. You should know that the most in the national army is infantry." Lu Mingxuan comforted Nie Ziwen.

Nie Ziwen knew that Lu Mingxuan was right. What is more than the Japanese army? Of course, there are more infantry. Just pulling some strong men will be infantry. Therefore, the most in the national army is infantry. On the contrary, what they lack is heavy troops, and the 189th Division and them just complement each other.

"In addition, I have prepared a batch of arms for you. At that time, you can give this batch of arms to the troops that fight with you to strengthen their firepower. I believe that the division commanders in Nanjing will be happy to send a force to fight with you in order to ensure these arms." Lu Mingxuan continued.

Nie Ziwen nodded. Although these things are not good in their eyes, they are still very good in the eyes of the National Army. I believe that in order to obtain this batch of arms, the division commanders will rush to send a force to fight with him.

Just as Lu Mingxuan was explaining something to Nie Ziwen, a woman with fashionable clothes and beautiful figure leaned over.

"Are you Commander Lu?" the woman said to Lu Mingxuan.

When Lu Mingxuan's guards saw the woman, they hurriedly surrounded the woman so that she would not do anything bad.

Lu Mingxuan glanced at her and said, "I don't know if this lady is..."

"I am Yan Feifei, a reporter from Ta Kung Pao. I wonder if I can give an interview to Mr. Lu?" The woman said generously.

"Exclusive interview?" Lu Mingxuan didn't expect someone to conduct an exclusive interview with him so soon. He thought about it and said, "No problem."

He happened to have a lot of words to convey through the media, which was a good opportunity.

After saying goodbye to Nie Ziwen, he and the female reporter Yan Feifei and a accompanying photographer came to the division headquarters located in Jiyuan City.

"How did Commander Lu raise such a powerful team? As far as I know, Commander Lu is a bandit, so how could he have so many planes, tanks and cannons?" After sitting down, Yan Feifei directly asked the question she wanted to ask the most. A bandit actually brought such a big family background, which obviously made many people confused.

"Is this..." Lu Mingxuan said with a haha, "This is related to the high-level secrets of our army. You can understand that I was funded by a patriotic Chinese abroad, so I have so many planes and tanks. Of course, his name cannot be revealed, otherwise he will be in danger of his life."

Lu Mingxuan gave a reason he had thought of a long time ago. Although this reason was extremely unreliable, so unreliable that he would not believe it. But all this was not the point. Could anyone dare to point a gun at him and ask him about the origin of these arms? I believe that his subordinates would definitely crush this arrogant guy in a tank at that time.

Yan Feifei smiled slightly, and she also knew that this question was abrupt. It must be the senior secret of the 189th Division. Lu Mingxuan would never tell her anyway.

"My second question is how Commander Lu viewed the Nanjing Defense War. Do you think we can defend Nanjing?" Yan Feifei continued to ask.

"Is this... it's very difficult." Lu Mingxuan thought for a while and said.

"Do you have no confidence in guarding Nanjing?" Yan Feifei asked quickly.

Lu Mingxuan nodded, "According to the information obtained by our army, the troops dispatched by the Japanese army this time involved 8 field divisions. In addition, there were a large number of heavy artillery units with a total of no less than 240,000 troops, so it was difficult for our army to withstand the enemy."

The Japanese troops participating in the battle this time included 6 full divisions, one brigade, two independent field heavy artillery brigades, and three field heavy artillery gangs, seven siege heavy artillery brigades, one heavy artillery brigade, one heavy artillery squadron, 16 anti-aircraft artillery brigades and three reserve mountain artillery brigades, 21 independent automobile teams and other support units.

Among them, there are more than 700 anti-aircraft guns, including 240mm howitzers, 150mm cannons and other heavy artillery, more than 2,000 anti-aircraft guns, infantry guns, mortars and grenade launchers, and 300 armored vehicles of the tank.

It can be said that even if Lu Mingxuan's family is suppressed, he is not a match for the Japanese army. The difference in strength is too great.

Yan Feifei was stunned. This was big news. The general of the National Army thought that he could not defend Nanjing. And how did he know the Japanese military secrets?

"Can you ask? How did you get this information? Of course, if you think it is inconvenient to answer, you can not answer." Yan Feifei asked quickly, but she knew that this must involve some senior spies. Her question might endanger the life of the spy, so she was ready to refuse her, but Lu Mingxuan's answer still came to her accident.

"This is a message sent by a senior spy who was stationed in the Japanese army. Moreover, the Japanese Emperor did not want to see Matsui Ishigen obtain such a great contribution to the capture of Nanjing, so he specially sent Asakagumiya Hirohiko to grab the merits. For this reason, the old Matsui devil secretly cursed the Japanese Emperor behind his back." The unscrupulous Lu Mingxuan stabbed Matsui Ishigen with a fierce sword without hesitation. This knife was definitely so sinister and vicious, leaving Matsui nowhere to say anything.

"You said Matsui Ishigen scolded the Japanese Emperor?" Yan Feifei suddenly felt a sense of surprise. She suddenly felt like she was hit by a big cake falling from the sky, and it was made of gold.

"Yes, he did scold."

"How did he scold the Japanese Emperor?" Yan Feifei quickly picked up her pen and asked.

"He scolded the Japanese emperor for being petty."

"Did he just scold the Japanese emperor?" Yan Feifei suddenly stopped her pen and asked.

But Lu Mingxuan saw a dangerous light from her eyes. He is really worthy of being a reporter! Is this considered a temptation to confess?

However, he also cooperated very much and said: "Of course it's not the only one. He accused the Japanese Emperor of wanting to suppress him, for fear that he would make greater contributions, and for fear that his achievements would shock the Lord."

Yan Feifei understood the smile, and then kept memorizing it! This is definitely big news! It can definitely break the sky!

The top Japanese officials are fighting for power and profit! The commander of the Shanghai Expeditionary Army cursed the Japanese emperor! Which title should be used?

These two little demons waving their wings had no idea how much damage they would cause to Matsui Ishigen. I believe that if Matsui Ishigen knew, he would definitely raise the army to Jiyuan and kill these two bitches at all costs.

"In addition, Matsui Iron also accused Asakamami Hirohiko King of being stupid and incompetent, and his ability to seize merits is much greater than that of fighting." Lu Mingxuan continued without blinking.

"You mean Matsui Ishione thinks that Asaka Miyahiko is here to seize the merits?" Yan Feifei asked directly at the critical moment.

"That's right." Lu Mingxuan said with a smile. Isn't this the truth?

“Is there anything else?”

"Of course, he also accused King Hirohiko Asakagumiya..."

Seeing their unscrupulous division commander and an unscrupulous reporter desperately woven the charges for Matsui Ishigen, the guards took a few steps back in fear. They seemed to see the poisonous snakes spitting snakes at both ends discussing how to harm people. They almost made up their minds at the same time, no matter what, they never offend these two people! Never!

But Matsui Ishigen, who was far away in Shanghai, kept sneezing. What was going on? Is it someone who cares about me? Matsui Ishigen thought to himself.
