"Those who are not of my race must have different minds, and everyone knows the wolf ambition of the little devil..."

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Wenbai, He Jingzhi, Bai Jiansheng and others also nodded in agreement.

Well, the style of painting has indeed changed a bit quickly.

"Okay, okay, don't talk about those useless things now, the most important thing is to discuss a countermeasure! This battle is related to the life and death of the country. We must work together to tide over the difficulties."

The chairman waved his hand lightly. Ever since he knew this information, he felt particularly depressed and heavy in his heart.

A month ago, the Huaxia Huben Army on the Shandong Peninsula made a series of big moves, launched a large-scale counterattack against the Japanese invaders, regained a large area of ​​occupied areas, and even extended their hands into the occupied areas of northern Henan, miraculously opening up A direct land connection with the Kuomintang-controlled area was established.

This was originally a good thing. It not only caused heavy casualties to the Japanese army, but also greatly encouraged the morale of the army and the people. It also divided the Japanese army in China into the North and South battlefields, which seemed to revitalize the national war of resistance.

But it is a pity that neither the Huben army nor the Japanese army had a strong desire to attack, and soon reached a new state of balance. They just faced off in a small-scale war far away, and there was no situation in which both sides suffered.

Chapter 1346 Killing Two Birds With One Stone

And what worried the chairman most was that the big moves of the Huben Army attracted hundreds of thousands of elite Kwantung Army troops stationed in the Northeast to move southward, putting enormous military pressure on the first theater and the second theater, and seriously threatening the Anhui University. Rear security.

At that time, the chairman had an ominous premonition, and was worried that there would be a scene where "the gods fight and the mortals suffer".

Therefore, at that time, the chairman ordered Jiang Mingshan, the commander of the 1st war zone stationed in Henan, and Yan Bochuan, the commander of the 2nd commander, to strengthen the defense of the Yellow River.

Now it's all right, people are not as good as God!

The little devil did not carry out military operations as expected, and did not dare to do things under the nose of the Huben army. Instead, he "had no hesitation" to transport the Kwantung Army from the northeast to Shanghai by sea, and then entered Jiangxi by land to join the Changsha battle.

This not only completely disrupted the chairman's defense layout, but also directly came to the bottom of the pot, the black tiger took out his heart, and the soldier's peak pointed directly at the heart of the government, seriously threatening the southwest and the rear.

After the military adventure in the Far East was a great success, the Japanese Kwantung Army overthrew the Soviet Far East Military Region in one fell swoop, which not only allowed Japan to expand its territory, but also made the puppet Manchukuo no longer under the military pressure from the Soviet Union.

Hundreds of thousands of the most elite Kwantung Army completely let go of their hands and feet. Not only can they go south to besiege the Huaxia Huben Army, but they can also directly go around by sea and attack the rear of the Kuomintang-controlled area.

Moreover, due to the butterfly effect, the United States has been unable to send troops to the Pacific Ocean for a long time, and launched a large-scale frontal military war with the Japanese army. In addition, the Southeast Asian battlefield is also calm.

I have to say that this situation is really bad, especially for the relatively weak national army.

However, after the chairman's voice fell, the room suddenly fell silent. Everyone didn't answer, but frowned and thought.

It's not that they don't want to share the worries and worries of the leaders, and they don't want to show their ingenuity, but that this proposition is too heavy.

More than 45 Japanese troops attacked Changsha, Hunan, including nearly 20 Kwantung Army, as well as a large number of technical equipment such as aircraft, tanks, and cannons. Such a heavy army group is too difficult to manage.

The chairman also knew that this was a very difficult and troublesome problem, and it could not be solved in a few words, so he didn't make any further urging, but calmed down and waited for everyone to offer their suggestions.

After pondering for a long while, Chen Cixiu finally broke the silence and said: "Principal, I also have an immature idea, I don't know if I should say it or not."

The chairman waved his hand and said, "Cixiu, just say what you want. Is there any need to hide it at this time?"

"Yes!"

Chen Cixiu nodded and said, "Principal, I think we can start from two aspects. First, we can completely transfer all the elite national troops from the Myanmar theater back to China. Anyway, the Myanmar theater has entered a state of confrontation, and there are still several One hundred thousand Chinese Huben troops are stationed there!

In this way, our country will be able to add at least 25 US machinists. This is undoubtedly a trump card force that can be used to great advantage! "

"Only more than 20 expeditionary troops were sent to the North African theater, and now another 25 troops have to be drawn from the Burmese theater to return home. Will this lead to a shortage of troops in the Burmese theater and fall into crisis?"

The chairman frowned and said: "You must know that there are a total of one million Japanese troops in Thailand. Although most of them are newly formed divisions, they still have a total of one million troops!"

Why doesn't the chairman want to withdraw the elite troops from the Myanmar theater to the country, and why doesn't he want to recover the lost ground as soon as possible, so as to greatly enhance his personal prestige and become the "generation wise king" of the Chinese nation.

But the problem is that the Burmese theater is becoming more and more important now. Not only can it contain millions of Japanese troops, but it can also continuously send delicious, hot American equipment, and strategic materials back to China. It is really a big supplement!

Zhang Wenbai seconded at this time: "It is indeed too risky to do so. The current total force in the Myanmar theater is only 70. If 25 are drawn back at once, wouldn't it mean that there are 45 left?"

Chen Xiuci shook his head and said, "Brother Wenbai, the total military strength in the Myanmar theater is now more than 70? You underestimate Yang Fan's expansion speed too!"

Zhang Wenbai looked at Chen Cixiu in confusion, and asked, "Is it far more than 70?"

Chen Cixiu replied unhurriedly: "Three months ago, when Yang Fan led the expeditionary force to North Africa, he had already expanded into five group armies and more than 5 local garrison troops, with a strength of at least 70.

再加上第5军、第6军、第66军、第71军、第31军、第22集团军各部兵力,缅甸战区总兵力随便也有100万。

In the past three months, the Burmese theater has added at least 20 troops to various field troops and local garrison troops.

Therefore, although the current Myanmar theater is dominated by recruits, there has not been much change in the total strength of the troops, and it may even increase instead of decrease! "

Zhang Wenbai was slightly astonished and said: "Doesn't this mean that the current total military strength in the Burma theater is as high as 100 million?"

Chen Cixiu nodded affirmatively and said: "Of course! Although the expansion of the Huben Army in the Myanmar theater will not be reported to the government, this information is not difficult to find out."

"Well, even if that's the case, but as you said just now, they are basically recruits, and their combat effectiveness may be..."

Speaking of this, Zhang Wenbai couldn't go on, because if he insisted that the recruits of the Huben Army did not have much combat effectiveness, even he himself would not believe it.

Yes, it is true!

In recent years, except for the final decisive battle in the Battle of Burma, the recruits of the 4th Army of the Huben Expedition, which had not been formed for a long time, once collapsed.

Even in many cases, the new army has just been expanded, and it is directly involved in a bloody and bloody battle!

Seeing that Zhang Wenbai had nothing to say, Chen Cixiu raised his eyebrows and continued, "There is one more thing we need to see clearly, that is, Yang Fan already regards Myanmar as something in his pocket, and in fact he has already done so."

"The Japanese army has never given up on Burma, and Yang Fan will never give up this piece of fat. Maybe they will fight once we leave."

"So, I believe that even if all the troops of the national army are withdrawn, Yang Fan will not give up on Myanmar, and will definitely allow the Huben army to stick to Myanmar, and is fully capable of defending Myanmar."

"Of course, we still need to keep 2 or [-] people to ensure our interests in Myanmar and ensure the unimpeded transportation of military supplies aided by the Allied Forces to the country."

"Well, at this stage we should focus on the domestic battlefield, the country is the foundation of the country!"

"Well said!"

"The analysis is very thorough!"

"Not only can it make up for the lack of troops in the domestic battlefield, but maybe it can also make the Japanese army fight the Huben army!"

"I think it works!"

"I agree!"

"Seconded!"

After weighing the pros and cons, the rest of the people applauded and expressed their approval of this good strategy that could kill two birds with one stone.

Chapter 1347 Heavenly Furnace Tactics

"This suggestion is very fast, it can be discussed again!"

The Chairman nodded slightly. Although he didn't make a decision immediately, anyone with a discerning eye would already know that this matter is close.

Just as Chen Cixiu said just now, Myanmar has inevitably become another independent kingdom. Even the Americans have acquiesced in this matter. Although the British Empire is the suzerain country, it is currently too busy to take care of itself and has no ability to change it. status quo.

Naturally, the Central Army is even more incapable of occupying the magpie's nest, so it can only do the next best thing, as long as it can ensure a steady stream of military supplies to be delivered to the country.

In this case, it would be too wasteful to continue to put 30 to [-] elite troops in Burma, and it is just time to bring them back to the country to enrich the anti-Japanese forces and prepare for a tough battle with the devils.

As for what will happen in the future, we can only wait and see.

Thinking of this, the chairman gave Chen Cixiu an approving look, and then said: "Cixiu, didn't you say you have two suggestions? Let's continue."

"Okay, principal."

Chen Cixiu nodded and said: "As the saying goes, everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. When this nation lives and dies, it is natural that people, regardless of gender, age, and land, regardless of land, north, south, west, east, have the responsibility to defend the land and resist the war.

At present, the Huben army has broken through the heavy siege of the Japanese and puppet troops, and has taken root in the northern Henan area. It can be regarded as having opened up a land line of communication with the Kuomintang-controlled area, so why can't they be dispatched to participate in the Changsha battle? "

"This, it seems very reasonable!"

"Well said, as it should be!"

"Well, it is everyone's responsibility to defend the land during the War of Resistance. The national army has fought hard on the frontal battlefield for so many years, but the Huben Army has been in a corner. It is time for them to fight against Lu!"

"Well, there is really no reason why they can't shrink back now!"

"That's right, we can't let them continue to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, reaping all the benefits of fishermen."

"This wishful thinking is not so loud!"

"I just hope you don't get fooled by your cleverness!"

As soon as Chen Cixiu finished speaking, the expressions of the people in the room were extremely exciting, some were amazed, some were filled with righteous indignation, and some were watching with sarcasm.

"Okay, well said!"

The chairman's face flushed. He had actually been thinking about this idea for a long time, but he couldn't let him speak.

Because the Huaxia Huben Army has always been self-contained and does not obey the direct dispatch of the National Government. If you rashly order the deployment of troops, but the other party ignores them at all, it will only make yourself ashamed and unable to step down.

At this time, it is necessary to bring a wave of rhythm, and then the chairman can push the boat smoothly and communicate and negotiate in the name of the National Government Military Commission.

In this case, even if they can't reach an agreement, they won't lose face and lose their prestige. On the contrary, it will make Yang Fan feel true and weaken his personal reputation.

On January 1th, the Command Post of the Commander's Department of the Ninth Theater of Yuelu Mountain.

Knowing that the Japanese army would soon launch an unprecedented attack on the Ninth War Zone, Xue Boling moved the command post from Erli Pai, Changsha to a few houses near the Aiwan Pavilion in Yuelu Mountain in advance to facilitate the battle in Changsha. Command nearby.

A heavy artillery brigade was also deployed on Yuelu Mountain, which could take advantage of the geographical advantage of "good observation conditions and easy to find firepower" on the top of the mountain to overlook the whole city, and could deal a devastating blow to the densest Japanese army among the Japanese attacking troops.

After reading the emergency telegram personally issued by the chairman, Xue Boling took a deep breath. The unprecedented pressure and burden made him feel extremely heavy, and he deeply felt the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

Due to the responsibility and the disastrous end of the second Changsha battle, Xue Boling has been thinking about how to deal with the next Japanese attack.

As early as more than a month ago, Xue Boling convened commanders above the army to participate in the defense meeting in Changsha, and formulated a strategy named "Tianlu Warfare".

His thinking is that deploying troops deep in the areas for decoy and ambush, and encircling and annihilating the Japanese army from all directions, is like melting iron and stone in a natural giant furnace.

The meeting decided that the Tenth Army would stick to Changsha and entangle the Japanese army; the decisive battle area would be between Liuyang River and Laodao River.Xue Boling issued an order to Li Yutang: "Order your army to stick to Changsha and strive for success. Strictly order the troops to fight and not retreat. Anyone who retreats without authorization will be killed without mercy."

Xue Boling's sky furnace warfare method is to use the battlefield centered on Changsha as a natural giant furnace to gather and annihilate the Japanese army. Yang Sen's army has already led the Japanese army into the sky furnace at Xinqiang River, and now what he needs is the battlefield from all directions. Great firepower.

The idea is good, but the question is, will the Japanese army sneak into the hearth of the Tianfu as expected?

If the Japanese army really attacked Changsha and the main force gathered near Changsha, then as long as the Chinese troops encircled by the four sides arrived in time, the Japanese army could be surrounded and roasted in the furnace.

In order to command the various ministries to fight nearby, Xue Boling was determined to draw the ground as a prison, and could not stick to the front line.

Yuelu Mountain is the highest point in Changsha. Here he can overlook the panorama of the battle across the Xiangjiang River and hear the sound of guns defending Changsha with his own ears.

At present, more and more information and signs show that the Japanese army is really going to attack Changsha again, and this time it is no longer a "small fight", but the first frontal decisive battle of unprecedented scale after entering the stalemate.

The chairman of the general committee attached the highest importance to this, and not only urgently dispatched 25 U.S. military troops from the Burmese theater to return to China to participate in the Changsha battle, but also tried to use various channels and means to win over the Huben army to participate in the war.

In addition, the chairman also mentioned in the telegram that soon he will lead a group of senior generals to Nanyue to supervise and inspect the battle, and will give all possible support and support to the ninth theater.

Because of these, Xue Boling felt a lot of pressure, and all kinds of thoughts filled his head for a while.

If only the No. 11 army of Anan Weiji, who is currently facing each other, came to attack Changsha, he would have enough confidence and strength to let this arrogant old devil taste the power of Tianlu warfare and surround these devil soldiers in the hearth Grill it.

However, the current situation is that the strength of the Japanese army has more than doubled sharply, and it is still the elite Kwantung Army from Manchukuo,

In addition, what is more serious is that the Devil No. 11 Army will replenish a large number of aircraft, tanks, artillery and other heavy equipment.

This is undoubtedly the icing on the cake, making the No.11 army's strength skyrocket several times, turning a bicycle into a motorcycle!

Although in the past few months, the Ninth War Zone has also made a lot of reinforcements, whether it is soldiers or weapons and equipment, it has been greatly supplemented and strengthened.

Moreover, the chairman also urgently dispatched 25 expeditionary troops equipped with American equipment to return to China for assistance, and it is very likely that the extremely powerful Huben Army will also send troops to participate in the battle.

However, in such a large-scale decisive battle, there are too many factors of victory and defeat and uncertainties. Whether the "Tianfu method" conceived before can still work has become an unknown.

This crucial decisive battle, even related to the life and death of the national government, can only be won but not defeated!

But how to fight in order to ensure that you can only win and not lose?

Xue Boling really doesn't know, at least his mind is in a mess right now, he can't figure it out at all, and he doesn't have a clear thinking and strategic conception yet.

Chapter 1348 Shield and Spear

Nanchang, Jiangxi, Japan No.11 Army Command.

He and Xue Boling were frowning, but Ananwei's face almost died of laughter.

During the Anti-Japanese War, the 11th Army of the Japanese army was very famous, because the 11th Army participated in almost all the battles in the middle and late stages of the Anti-Japanese War, and fought against all our ace troops.

So, during the Anti-Japanese War, what was the combat effectiveness of the 11th Army?

Seriously speaking, the combat capability of the 11th Army is indeed very strong.

The No. 11 Army of the Japanese Army was organized into an army on July 1938, 7, and at the same time, it was incorporated into the combat sequence of the "Central China Dispatch Army" to participate in the Battle of Wuhan.

In the Japanese army, the 11th Army is the only strategic mobile field force among all Japanese armies, and it undertakes the combat mission of destroying the main force of China.
