Take Taobao to fight against Japan

After a pause, Bai Chongxi looked at Sun Lianzhong meaningfully and said: "Commander Sun is the pillar of the party and country with outstanding military exploits. Not only did the little devil suffer a lot, but even Yang Fan looks at you differently!"

Sun Lianzhong understood Bai Chongxi's meaning in seconds, and quickly waved his hands to explain: "Mr. Bai, there must be a misunderstanding here. I have never had anything to do with Yang Fan. I have always been loyal to the party and the country! Please, Mr. Bai, learn from me!"

"Haha, I just said it casually, there is no other meaning! Don't get me wrong!"

Bai Chongxi grinned, looked around and then pointed to the sky with his finger, saying, "It's just that there are some things about Li Xia Guadai that are easy to say, and you should avoid suspicion!"

Sun Lianzhong nodded quickly and said, "Please rest assured, Mr. Bai, I know what to do!"

Bai Chongxi smiled and said: "I am really looking forward to this meeting with Yang Fan, I never thought that I would meet him in this place!

To be honest, I admire this guy from the bottom of my heart, he can make the little devil suffer a lot, and even now I don't dare to fight him directly!

Well, I just don't know what kind of surprise he can bring us this time? "

"Hey, it's really fascinating!"

Sun Lianzhong followed suit with fiery eyes, and he was already thinking about how to deal with Yang Fan and how to help defend Taierzhuang together.

Bai Chongxi looked at the sky in the distance thoughtfully and said: "Whether we can make a big difference this time, the support army is very important, and we must make a good calculation at that time!"

At ten o'clock in the morning, Yang Fan led the vanguard of mechanization and arrived in Taierzhuang. There were 9 heavy tanks and hundreds of transport vehicles. At first glance, they could blind the eyes of titanium alloy dogs!

"My God, what kind of tank is this, isn't it too big?"

"There are so many heavy artillery?"

"Oh my god, all mechanized transportation?"

"Is this Huaxia Tiger Ben army so powerful?"

"No wonder you can beat the little devil completely without temper! Haha!"

"Yeah, it's all right now! We can fight head-to-head with the little devil!"

Bai Chongxi, Sun Lianzhong, Tian Zhennan, Feng Anbang and others who came to greet him were all dumbfounded. They knew that Yang Fan was well-equipped and luxurious, but they still couldn't help being horrified when they saw it for the first time today!

If you don’t know the goods, you are afraid of comparing goods. Bai Chongxi has seen the world, and you can tell that the tank brought by Yang Fan definitely belongs to the grandfather’s generation!

If it is a tank alone, even if all the tanks of the 200th Division are on board, I am afraid that they will not be able to defeat a heavy tank of the Chinese Huben Army!

All tanks and chariots of the Nationalist Government are imported. At present, they are mainly the legal-made "Renault" FT-17 light tank (machine gun type), the American-made M-1917 light tank, the Italian-made "Fiat" light tank, and the British-made "Vickers" MK E tank, the British "Vickers" M1936 light tank, the German command light tank, etc.!

These tanks are much worse than Japan's 95 light tanks. Their armor thickness ranges from 6 to 22 mm, and their thin-skinned attack power is even weaker!

Even heavy machine guns can cause a lot of damage, but when you encounter anti-aircraft guns, as long as you shoot accurately, you are basically a child with one shot!

"Haha, Officer Bai, I really didn't expect to see you here! Nice to meet you! Nice to meet you!"

After a long period of greetings and mutual introductions, Yang Fan had the opportunity to talk to Bai Chongxi alone to build a relationship, because Yang has always been inexplicably curious about this "handsome" talent in the national army who is known as the little Zhuge!

Chapter 323 Persecution Paranoia

Bai Chongxi looked at Yang Fan with a beaming smile and said, "Commander Yang is famous, and we have admired him for a long time, and only after seeing him today do we know what it means to be a man of no vain under a great reputation!

Commander Yang deserves to be the hero of the day who makes the little devils frightened, his demeanor is compelling! "

Sun Lianzhong answered with a smile: "Commander Yang, the journey has been full of dust and dust. It's been hard work. We have already prepared thin wine to wash away the dust for Commander Yang. Please also Commander Yang to move to our army headquarters!"

"Haha, thank you, Commander Bai and Commander Sun, for your hospitality!"

Yang Fan was also polite, nodded and ordered the disembarked troops to enter Taierzhuang, and the vacated transport convoy returned to pick up other personnel who were still on the way.

Then Yang Fan arrived at the Hanjia Temple on the south bank of the canal by car under the protection of the guard battalion.

Drinking can bring the relationship closer. After drinking for three rounds, everyone's chatterbox gradually opened up, and they began to call each other brothers and sisters while talking, which lost a lot of life.

"Brother Fang Lu, since we parted in Jiyang in 30 years, we have been separated for more than 8 years in a blink of an eye. It is really embarrassing to think that we can fight side by side again in Taierzhuang today!"

After a few glasses of wine, Gu Liangmin officially entered the role with the help of some alcohol, and began to talk about old relationships with Sun Lianzhong.

In 1907, he was recommended by his third brother, Gu Liangyou, to serve as a soldier in Feng Yuxiang Battalion, the 20th Town of the New Army of the Qing Dynasty in Fengtian Xinmin Mansion.

Because of his strong body, intelligence and eagerness to learn, he was soon transferred to Feng Yuxiang's guard.Following Feng, he participated in the Luanzhou Uprising, defending the country against Yuan, crusade against Zhang Xun, the Zhiwan War, the first Zhifeng War, etc., and escorted Feng out of danger many times, and was promoted from a soldier to a guard company commander, brigade commander, and division commander.

Gu Liangmin's third brother, Gu Liangyou, entered Baoding in his early years to "train the army" and served as a soldier in the same shed with Feng Yuxiang. They had a close relationship and became brothers with different surnames. He died of illness in Jinan on October 1934, 10!

And Sun Lianzhong was one of Feng Yuxiang's thirteen Taibao, and he was deeply appreciated by Feng Yuxiang. He had a very good relationship with the two brothers of the Gu family in his early years.

In 1930, Sun Lianzhong was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the No.20 Sixth Route Army after being reorganized by Chiang Kai-shek, and led his troops to Jining, Shandong to reorganize and eat.

At that time, the chairman of Shandong Province was Han Fuju, who had a deep friendship with Sun Lianzhong.After Sun arrived in Shandong, Han made wishful thinking, trying to use Sun's power to strengthen himself.

At this time, Sun Lianzhong also had the idea of ​​relying on each other with Han.

However, Generalissimo Jiang believed that Han Fuju was ambitious and changeable, so he took precautions against it; while Sun Lianzhong was brave in fighting and loyal to his superiors.

Chairman Jiang sent Cao Haosen, who was the chief of staff of Feng Yuxiang's department, to Jining to do the work of persuading Sun;

Sun Lianzhong sent Yuan Qixuan, the chief of military supplies and secretary-general, to Nanjing to visit Jiang. Chairman Jiang personally hosted a banquet in honor of Sun Podo during the meeting.

Generalissimo Jiang was warmly prepared, and Sun Lianzhong was gradually moved, so he decided to work for Chiang.

"Yeah, it's really unpredictable!"

Thinking of all the past, Sun Lianzhong was quite moved. He almost joined the soldiers of Han Fuju and stationed in Shandong, but now Han Fuju has been dealt with by the military law, and Gu Liangmin is a rising star who defected to the Third Route Army!

However, Yang Fan, a rising star, has become a national anti-Japanese hero and dazzling star who makes the devils frightened and the Chinese officers and soldiers are encouraged by the news!

After the meal was full, Yang Fan said to Bai Chongxi and Sun Lianzhong straight to the point: "Mr. Bai, Commander Sun, the little devils are attacking fiercely from the north and the south. The battle of Xuzhou will be a bloody battle, and now Taierzhuang is a key node." !

The main purpose of my coming here this time is to assist in the defense of Taierzhuang. As for other strategic deployments in the fifth theater, I will not get involved!Regarding this point, I hope Chief Bai can understand! "

Yang Fan's words were simple, straightforward and rude. If it were someone else, I am afraid that this is disobedience and disobedience. Even if he is not punished, he will be put on little shoes in the future.

Bai Chongxi did not show any displeasure, but spoke for Yang Fan: "Commander Yang not only blocked the frontal attack of the Japanese 10th Division and 22nd Division, but also led his troops to stabilize Fei County and Teng County.

Now that I personally lead an army to help Taierzhuang, this is already a role model for us, how can we have other extravagant demands?I believe Chief Li will have the same thoughts as me! "

"Haha, thank you, Officer Bai!"

Yang Fan nodded with a smile, and then said to Sun Lianzhong: "Commander Sun, my engineering troops will arrive in Taierzhuang soon, and I will build stronger fortifications in Taierzhuang and its surrounding areas, which requires the cooperation of your brothers!

In addition, Commander Sun is also asked to transfer all the people in Taierzhuang, because Taierzhuang will become a devil's flesh and blood mill, and all irrelevant personnel must be cleared! "

"There is no problem with this at all. We will definitely cooperate with Commander Yang!"

Sun Lianzhong nodded without hesitation. A defensive battle depends on strong fortifications!

The Huaxia Huben Army is best at defense, and now they take the lead in doing that, which is naturally a great thing, and Sun Lianzhong can't find a reason to refuse it at all!

"Haha! With Commander Yang's Tiger Ben army joining, Taierzhuang will definitely be as strong as gold! Come, let's drink this cup together, I wish us a successful start and beat the little devil to the ground! I will do it first as a respect!"

Bai Chongxi stood up in a good mood, picked up the wine glass and toasted everyone, and happily drank it down!

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Huaxia Huben Engineering Corps and the follow-up troops arrived in Taierzhuang!

As soon as they entered the site, the experienced engineering corps began construction planning, and then tens of thousands of construction teams began intense work!

This time Yang Fan not only brought a lot of luggage, but also a lot of steel bars and special cement, and an extremely complete fortification group could be built in a day or two at most.

In order to facilitate communication with the Second Army, Yang Fan also set up his headquarters in Hanjia Temple on the south bank of the canal, with Gu Liangmin as the direct person in charge.

A former enemy commander was set up in Taierzhuang, and Miao Dadong was personally in charge of commanding. This guy has been staying at home to defend, and has long been "complaining", so Yang Fan brought him out this time, which can be regarded as letting professional people do professional things!

The morale of Taierzhuang is in full swing, but the atmosphere in Xuzhou is a bit depressed!

"I got it! This Yang Fan is really good at timing!"

After listening to Bai Chongxi's report, Generalissimo Jiang looked extremely calm, unable to tell what was going on in his heart.

I am used to watching Yang Fan's unconstrained military operations, Chairman Jiang's anti-toxicity has been greatly enhanced!

"Commissioned seat, you must be cautious! Yang Fan brought Gu Liangmin to Taierzhuang this time, and his purpose has been revealed! Otherwise, according to his villainous nature, he is not willing to suffer, can he jump into the fire willingly?"

Qian Dajun felt very uneasy. Yang Fan had too many criminal records, which made him suffer from persecution paranoia.

Chapter 324

Bai Chongxi smiled lightly and said: "Director Qian is too worried, although Yang Fan has a lot of minor problems, but he is unequivocal in terms of national righteousness!

This time in the battle of Xuzhou, Yang Fan's troops have done their best. Not only did they block the attack of the two divisions of the devils and caused heavy casualties to the devils, but now they have resisted the three divisions of the devils in the north for the fifth theater by themselves. group! "

Qian Dajun was still a little unconvinced and said: "It's not because he saw Shandong as his own territory, and he was forced to send troops because he wanted to take advantage of the fire to loot it!"

"Okay, stop arguing!"

Generalissimo Jiang waved his hands impatiently, looked down at the sand table in front of him and said, "Anyway, let's finish this battle first, the two divisions of the Japanese army are almost approaching the Longhai railway line!

No matter who it is at this time, as long as he is willing to fight the devils, he must unite! "

Chairman Jiang was in a very restless mood. Since the outbreak of the All-out War of Resistance, he has experienced a series of failures in the defense of Pingjin, Songhu, Taiyuan, and Nanjing. !

Now not only does the Chinese nation need a beautiful and happy victory to boost the morale of the army and the people, but Chairman Jiang also needs a victory to rebuild his prestige!

So in any case, this well-designed Taierzhuang annihilation battle can only succeed and not fail!

At this time, Li Zongren nodded quickly and said: "Yang Fan's troops are extremely good at defense, and he and Sun Lianzhong's joint defense of Taierzhuang is indeed the best battle plan at present!

The next step is to see if the little devil will be fooled. After all, Yang Fan is famous now, and the little devil is quite afraid of him! "

Li Zongren's worries are not unreasonable, but the Japanese army is determined to win Xuzhou this time, even if they know that Yang Fan led a troop to Taierzhuang, they will never give up halfway!

After a pause, Li Zongren said again: "Commissioner, can the Air Force participate in the battle? If our Air Force can come, it will definitely boost morale!"

"Let's talk about it later!"

Chairman Jiang neither agreed nor refused!

In the early days of the war, the main force of the national army was the Hawker fighter. In the Songhu Air War, the national army lost 202 aircraft, damaged 112 aircraft, killed 122 pilots, and shot down and damaged 271 Japanese aircraft.

Now the National Army Air Force has only a few aircraft left, and each one is a baby bump. How can they be willing to easily engage in a decisive battle with the Japanese army?

Headquarters of the Japanese Central China Front Army in Shanghai.

Stars twinkle in the huge meeting room, and a group of old devils are sitting at the conference table. The leader of the old devils is the Japanese general Hata (tian) Junroku, who is also the newly appointed commander-in-chief of the Japanese army in Shanghai and Central China!

Because the Central China Dispatch Army, led by the former commander Matsui Iwane, created the "Nanjing Massacre" that shocked the world after occupying Nanjing!

Yang Fan made an in-depth exposure of the Japanese army's massacre crimes through newspapers and radio stations, which aroused great repercussions both at home and abroad!

The heinous crimes committed by Hisao Tani and others in Nanjing shocked the world, and the Japanese headquarters itself felt ashamed and disturbed!

In order to avoid being condemned by world public opinion, the Japanese government had to recall Matsui Iwane and about 1938 of his subordinates on February 2, 5.

谷寿夫于1937年12月27日被调任本土防卫军担任任中部军司令官的闲职，其上级松井石根、柳川平助都于次年2月14日被编入了预备役。

On the contrary, Chief of Staff Tsukada Makoto and Deputy Chief of Staff Akira Muto of the Central China Dispatch Army that invaded Nanjing remained on active duty.

It's not that the time has not arrived, these demons whose hands are stained with the blood of Chinese soldiers and civilians, although temporarily retreating to the second line, will be judged by justice sooner or later!

Hata Toshiro was promoted to general in 1937, took up the post of director of education, one of the three chiefs of the army, and became one of the heads of the Japanese army.

? ? ?This old devil not only has higher prestige in the army than Matsui Iwane, but also far surpasses Matsui Iwane in his ability and vision. It can be said that he is a very powerful devil general.

会议桌两旁分别坐着第9师团师团长吉佳良辅、第11师团师团长山室宗武、第13师团师团长荻洲立兵、第16师团师团长中岛今朝吾、第101师团师团长伊东政喜、第6师团师团长稻叶四郎、第114师团师团长末松茂治、第110师团师团长桑木崇明，以及华中方面军参谋长冢田攻和副参谋长武藤章！

Yoshika Ryosuke said extremely excitedly: "The Type 97 medium tanks newly produced by the Empire are invincible. The 9th Division and the 11th Division are making rapid progress. The vanguard has not encountered any decent resistance at all!"

Yamamuro Munetake nodded with a smile on his face and said: "That's right, His Majesty the Emperor has appointed Ishihara-san as the chief of staff of the Kwantung Army, who is responsible for the construction of the Manchukuo military system!

As long as the Japanese army has enough new tanks, it will be able to quickly sweep across China, and then go north to attack the Soviet Union, achieving the unprecedented prosperity of the Yamato nation in thousands of years! "

"Yo Xi!"

Tsukada Gong answered: "Currently, nearly 20 Chinese elite troops have been assembled in the Xuzhou area, and the main Chen soldiers are on the north bank of the Suzhou River. We must seize the opportunity to quickly cut into the rear of Xuzhou, and work together with the North China Front Army to besiege the Chinese army!

And our Great Japanese Empire has mobilized nearly 30 imperial warriors from the North China and Central China Fronts. As long as we can seize the opportunity and concentrate our superior forces, we can definitely eat up these 20 Chinese troops cleanly and take Xuzhou to open up the Jinpu South Line!

So I think it is necessary to speed up the pace of action and launch a full-scale attack as soon as possible! "

After listening to everyone's excited and optimistic speeches, Jun Hata's face was still very serious, and he did not show a smug smile. He said in a leisurely manner:

"There is an old saying in China that haste makes waste. The smoother the progress, the more we must not take it lightly! Mr. Ji Jia and Mr. Shanshi, you two divisions must be steady and steady at every step!

The other divisions must put enough pressure on the Chinese troops in their respective defense zones to cope with the outflanking actions of the 9th and 11th divisions! "

"Hay!"

A group of old devils bowed their heads and nodded.

Hata Junliu continued: "Once we formally attack in an all-round way, the North China Front Army will have to work harder to break through the northern defense line of China's fifth war zone, so as to form a strong encirclement!

After eating the Huaxia army in the Xuzhou area, we can take advantage of the victory to attack the important military city of Wuhan!
