Chapter 204: People Closely Watching The Battle Between The Japanese Army And German-equipped Troops
The shocking news after Lieutenant General Katsuki Kiyoshi was assassinated not only shocked all the Japanese Troops that came to attack Beiping, but also after the shock, the Citizens of the City who learned this news were delighted and excitedly celebrating the killing of the Japanese Invaders, greatly boosting all morale. Of course, the most boiling place was still the Foreign Public Concession there, and the Citizens of the capital Nanjing, and also the Citizens of Tianjin near Beiping. You know, once Beiping falls under the iron hooves of the Japanese Army, the next target of the Japanese Troops’ attack will be Tianjin and other places, and then Taiyuan over there,
So Tianjin and Taiyuan both boiled over, and they hotly celebrated. They all wished they could kill all these Japanese Troops invasion forces. Moreover, because of this victory report news, all Citizens forgot about the defeat of the 29th Route Army and the unpleasant warfare of evacuating from Beiping, allowing them to suddenly recover from their state of constant worry,
So the Citizens on the Tianjin and Taiyuan side discussed heatedly even more crowded like mountains and seas, and quite a few Patriots even more initiated soliciting supplies and money wealth to donate to the frontline National Revolutionary Army Troops, so that they could hold fast Beiping, defeat the Japanese Army, and protect there.
A large group of patriotic Students and persons in Tianjin continuously went back and forth in streets and alleys everywhere, earnestly soliciting donations.
“Hey! Do you say those German-equipped troops in Beiping City, exactly which German-equipped troops are they? Can they defeat those incoming Japanese Troops?”
“The Newspaper didn’t publish in newspaper which German-equipped division troops it is! But as our domestic most elite ace troops, they should have a chance to defeat these damned Japanese Invaders! At least the first battle is victorious now, the victory report has come, even those Foreigners are surprised at their operation ability!”
“Yes! I’ve already seen those war photographs in the Foreign Newspapers, and there were really quite a few Japanese People corpses killed outside Beiping City! Their first round of offensive operation didn’t even get close to the City Gate much, and they were severely damaged! These German-equipped troops are really great, just don’t know their designation, and who the commander is! They fought really too well!”
“Yeah! They fought really too relieving, simply greatly satisfying! So I bought many copies of the Foreign Newspapers to pay attention to this battle, even shared with quite a few relatives and friends to see!”
“If we here in Tianjin also had such combat-strong and powerful German-equipped troops stationed, it would be good, then we wouldn’t need to fear the invasion of those Japanese Army! Otherwise I’m worried that once Beiping falls, we here in Tianjin don’t know how to defend, relying on those 29th Route Army’s defending troops that were routed by the Japanese Troops, I feel it’s unreliable!”
“Actually if you’re worried, you can leave Tianjin now and go to places without war, wouldn’t that be safe?”
“I also want to leave! But this is the place where I was born and lived from childhood to adulthood! This is my hometown!”
“There’s new news again, heard that the Japanese Army has already started dispatching even more reinforcement troops from the Fengtai side! Looks like they plan to encirclement and suppression annihilate the German-equipped troops on the Beiping side!”
Meanwhile,
The most heated discussion was still the TJ Citizens close to Beiping City, and patriotic Students,
Especially these male and female Students who were soliciting donations, they were even more emotionally excited and thrilled, discussing heatedly.
Until someone among them hurriedly ran over, and also brought the latest published and selling Newspaper from the Foreign Newspapers, they stopped discussing, and all people’s attention was completely focused on paying attention to the latest news content on the Beiping side of resisting Japanese Invaders, unable to extricate themselves.
And Zhou Weiguo and Yao Ziqing and other officers far away on the Shanghai side were also similarly closely paying attention to the Foreigners’ latest news Newspapers, they also really wanted to know where the subsequent Beiping warfare would go.
Of course on the Yan’an side, and Zhou Weiguo’s Eldest Brother Liu Yuan, and Brother Liu Zhihui, were also similarly looking at the Foreigners’ Newspapers, understanding the latest battle news.
