136 Ye Qingshan is dead?
Xiao Shanling's comfort made Sun Mingxu feel a little better.
But his face was still filled with deep worry, and he continued, “I don’t know how Old Ye is doing now.
The battle they fought last night in which they completely wiped out the Japanese 117th Regiment was extremely difficult.
In the end, the Japanese reinforcements arrived too quickly and their troops were dispersed.
I don’t know where he has retreated to now.”
"Don't worry, the defenders at the Lion Mountain position have already sent back the news.
Many soldiers from the 36th Military Police Regiment and your th Guard Brigade have already retreated to the Lion Rock position.
The defenders over there also sent troops out to provide support.
Ye Qingshan will be fine."
Although Xiao Shanling said this, he was actually worried about Ye Qingshan.
Not long after, Xiao Shanling's convoy arrived at a mansion.
Now, he brought Sun Mingxu to see the principal.
Because the principal specifically asked to meet a senior officer who participated in the battle organized by Ye Qingshan to completely annihilate the Japanese 117th Regiment.
Then, Sun Mingxu is the most suitable one.
He was not only the brigade commander of the 36th Guard Brigade, but also in charge of Ye Qingshan's rocket artillery battalion.
It was at this time that Tang Shengzhi and his men targeted the so-called "heavy artillery unit".
He also participated in the battle yesterday to annihilate the Japanese 117th Regiment.
In fact, it was also because Sun Mingxu was the only senior officer under Ye Qingshan that Xiao Shanling could find at this time.
“When you meet the chairman, tell him whatever you know.
Don't say anything else, especially about Commander Tang.
Understand? "
Before entering the mansion, Xiao Shanling reminded Sun Mingxu.
He knew that Sun Mingxu was very dissatisfied with many of Tang Shengzhi's practices.
"Don't worry, Deputy Commander Xiao, I know what to do."
Sun Mingxu nodded.
Half a day later, Sun Mingxu and Deputy Commander Xiao came out of the principal's mansion.
"No way, absolutely impossible.
I don't believe that Lao Ye is dead. How could he be dead? "
After Sun Mingxu came out of the mansion, he could no longer suppress his emotions and shouted loudly.
Xiao Shanling, who was standing next to him, also sighed deeply.
It turned out that after they went to see the principal, the principal asked Sun Mingxu in detail about the process of Ye Qingshan's ambush of the Japanese 117th Regiment.
Sun Mingxu also answered truthfully.
Let the principal determine the outcome of this battle.
I also found out what was going on with Ye Qingshan's heavy artillery unit that was controlled by Sun Mingxu.
Originally, the principal had high expectations for Ye Qingshan's Katyusha rocket artillery battalion, which was the heavy artillery unit that Tang Shengzhi and others were talking about at this time.
The principal also wanted to know where Ye Qingshan got the heavy artillery from.
Therefore, before leaving Jinling, he chose to meet Sun Mingxu in person.
As a result, after listening to Sun Mingxu's words, the principal realized that it was actually a rocket launcher designed and manufactured by Ye Qingshan himself.
This was the first time the principal had heard of rocket launchers and he listened to Sun Mingxu talk for a long time with great interest.
But after learning about the performance of the Katyusha rocket launcher, the principal lost his previous enthusiasm.
There is no need to talk about the power of the Katyusha rocket launcher, but it also has many limitations.
Especially the demand for the supply of artillery shells is too great.
This was completely useless to the national army at that time.
If the national army had the production capacity to produce rocket shells, it could have produced enough artillery and shells to supply the battlefield.
Besides, the cost of rocket shells is really expensive.
Ye Qingshan had previously borrowed two million US dollars from Citibank to support the ammunition manufacturing of this rocket artillery battalion.
However, the raw materials purchased and the shells produced can only produce enough shells to fire two rounds.
For the principal who is extremely short of money at this time, the cost-effectiveness of manufacturing rockets is too low.
In particular, this type of rocket launcher can also provide covering strikes.
It is not a precision strike, it is something that only the local tycoons with lots of money and stupidity can afford.
He is not the principal at all, and he can play with it at this time.
With so much money, it would be more economical to make more guns and bullets.
There is no way. This is the tragedy of an agricultural country. Weapons like rocket launchers require large industrial production lines to operate.
These all require a lot of money.
Obviously, the principal doesn't have the money to spend on this.
On the contrary, the bazooka designed by Ye Qingshan made the principal more satisfied.
This thing is cheap and can be used to deal with the Japanese tanks and armored vehicles, which is what the National Army's front-line troops need more.
After learning that the Katyusha rocket launcher was not a real heavy artillery, the principal was very generous and did not express his intention to confiscate Ye Qingshan's Katyusha rocket launcher battalion.
Let Xiao Shanling take command.
Anyway, the principal knew that even if he got it, he wouldn't be able to afford it.
After dealing with the heavy artillery issue, an intelligence officer in the attendant's office next to the principal told Xiao Shanling and Sun Mingxu some bad news.
"According to the intelligence we intercepted from the Japanese, Ye Qingshan has been killed in action."
The intelligence officer in the principal's attendant room said.
This news shocked and disbelieved Xiao Shanling and Sun Mingxu at the time.
"This information was obtained by our intelligence agents lurking in Shanghai from the Japanese dispatch headquarters.
It was a telegram sent to the Japanese prince by Shinichi Kunimori, the commander of the Japanese 6th Mixed Brigade.
It shouldn't be wrong.
The defenders at the Lion Rock position had never found any trace of Ye Qingshan.
This also verifies the news.”
The news of Ye Qingshan's death took Xiao Shanling and Sun Mingxu a long time to react.
The principal also stood up and said, "Tomorrow, I will take a flight from Jinling to Wuhan.
Unexpectedly, he lost a beloved general before leaving.
I know Ye Qingshan. During the Battle of Shanghai, he found a heavy artillery regiment of the Japanese and captured a major general of the Japanese. He is truly a man of both wisdom and courage.
If I hadn't been so busy before, I would have planned to meet him.
I didn’t expect that there would be no chance again.”
"I have decided to inform the entire army of Ye Qingshan's victory in completely annihilating the 117th Regiment of the Japanese invaders, and to posthumously award Ye Qingshan the rank of Army Major General.
All the soldiers who died in this battle will be awarded medals as a reward.
Their deeds need to be known and spread by people all over the country.
Tang Shengzhi, you take care of this matter."
"Yes, don't worry, I will definitely get it done."
After knowing that Ye Qingshan had been killed in action, Tang Shengzhi did not refuse to publicize Ye Qingshan's achievement of completely annihilating the Japanese 117th Regiment.
He even wants to help promote it.
Anyway, the person is dead and won’t cause him any trouble.
Moreover, he was also the commander-in-chief of the National Army in the defense of Jinling City. Ye Qingshan’s achievement in this battle was naturally inseparable from his wise leadership.
Therefore, at this time, some newspapers outside have already carried out such publicity.
Afterwards, Xiao Shanling and Sun Mingxu left the principal's mansion.
The news of Ye Qingshan's death made them both sad.
However, these two people did not know that the intelligence about the Japanese obtained by the National Army intelligence officers in Shanghai was completely false.
