Beiyang reactionaries

They don't take it lightly.

Although they are all front-line senior generals with heavy troops in their hands, they really can't speak for the military department.They don't have enough say in the real decisions.

"it is good."

Duan Xun looked at the generals below, and said: "The content of this meeting today is actually very simple. Later, Chief of Staff Xu (Xu Yongchang) will announce the battle plan for this battle. You are all front-line generals, and you know the front line better than us. Situation. According to your front-line situation, supplement the military department’s combat plan so that the military department’s military plan can be perfected.”

"Yes."

"Chief of Staff Xu, announce the plan of your staff department."

"Yes."

Xu Yongchang accepted the order, and Lin Wei who was next to Xu Yongchang stood up immediately.Lin Wei is the director of the Operations Department of the General Staff Department, and all the operations plans of the General Staff Department come from Lin Wei and his Operations Department.

Lin Wei came to the front, and as soon as he opened the curtain, there was a very large map behind him.

"Prime Minister, everyone, the plan of our war room is simply 'preemptive strike'. Before the Japanese army is ready, quickly eliminate the Japanese troops in various strongholds of the Japanese army in China. The main goal is to control the railways and control the various ports. But The troops were not in the middle of the port, but artillery units were deployed at a slight distance to prevent the Japanese from landing."

"'Preemptive strike', from the perspective of our army, the most important points are the following. Take the Nanman Railway, take the Kanto Prefecture, and clear the Japanese docks along the Yangtze River, and control the main ports where the Japanese troops can land in Northeast China and Shandong. Deploy the line of defense there to stop the Japanese reinforcements. The main goal of the first phase is to take the Kanto Prefecture and prevent the North Korean division from entering the Northeast. Based on these, we have formulated a ten-day battle plan for the first phase.”

Very detailed.

In this battle with the Japanese army, the Chinese army's combat plan is to preemptively strike.

Before the Japanese army reacted, all the strongholds of the Japanese army in China were wiped out.Of course the main goal is there.The South-Manchuria Railway in the northeast and the Kanto Prefecture, the main ports where Japan can land in the Shandong area, and various piers along the Yangtze River.

Following Lin Wei's battle plan, many people have already understood a little bit.

It is said that the Japanese army provoked, but in fact Duan Xun was already ready to go to war with the Japanese army.Otherwise, the Chinese army and the Japanese warship had just clashed in Anqing a few hours ago, and many of the generals here didn't even know that the conflict had happened.It was Ge Jingen's notification that they knew that such a big event had happened in Anqing.

But listen to Lin Wei's battle plan.

Very meticulous.

In every respect, the various units are already in the plan.Such a meticulous battle plan could not have been made in just a few hours.

Look at the troops of Xie Hongxun and Wang Pu along the Yangtze River.Duan Xun had already completed the layout as early as the beginning of this year.And it's still a very legitimate name, even criticized by others.

But looking at it now, it is simply a stroke of magic.

It was deployed directly next to the Japanese dock.If it is said that Duan Xun has not the slightest preparation for war, no one of these experienced military generals will believe it.

After one lecture, Lin Wei spoke for about an hour.There are very detailed plans for the deployment of land forces, air forces, and naval forces.

"Director Lin, tell me what is the difficulty of this plan."

After Lin Wei finished speaking, Duan Xun asked Lin Wei directly.

Lin Wei said: "Prime Minister, the first stage, or the main battlefield of this battle with Japan must be in the Northeast. Because the Japanese army has the Korean Peninsula and a Korean division stationed on the Korean Peninsula. And Japan relies on their navy strength, we can directly land in places like Dalian and Yingkou. Therefore, the most important point for the success of the first stage is whether we can control the South Manchuria Railway and snatch the Kanto Prefecture before the Japanese reinforcements come to the northeast. If this step is successful, Then we are in a strategic position.”

"kindness."

Northeast is important.

It will be the main battlefield of this battle.Now China has an absolute advantage. Whether it is in terms of military strength or weapons and equipment, China has a huge advantage over the Kwantung Army.

With this advantage, defeating the Kwantung Army and controlling the Kwantung State will take the initiative.

"However, Prime Minister. At present, Fengtian has Zhang Zuolin's troops, and they have a large number of troops. If local troops are included, there will be about 12 troops. What our troops need is time, but if Zhang Zuolin's troops do not cooperate, they may even block us If there are no troops, then our troops will not be able to quickly attack Kanto Prefecture through the South Manchuria Railway."

"kindness."

Zhang Zuolin.

Why keep Zhang Zuolin, use it at this time.Duan Xun also has a plan for how to deal with Zhang Zuolin.So Duan Xun nodded and said: "Don't worry about Zhang Zuolin's matter, I will solve it. You continue to follow your plan."

"Yes."

"All the generals who came here today are the generals of the front-line troops. Tell me about your difficulties and your demands. We will solve them together in today's meeting. Don't tell me that this is wrong or that is lacking after I go to the battlefield. "

"Yes."

That's it for today's meeting.

The lack of weapons and ammunition preparations for the frontline troops, or any other problems, can be quickly resolved by using this meeting.Frontline troops are ready for all wars.

380 Conflict Escalation 4

Meetings are everywhere.

Yang Yongtai and Xiao Pan Youji met, and Duan Xun was holding a meeting of the military department.There was also an important meeting in Jingzhou, an important town in Hubei.

The Second Army of the Disaster Relief Mobile Force.

The atmosphere is dignified.

A large number of officers came to the headquarters of the Second Army of the Disaster Relief Mobile Force, and outside the military headquarters were heavily armed soldiers standing awe-inspiring, all armed with live ammunition, refusing anyone to enter here.Xie Hongxun sat on it with a serious expression.And the same is true for the following.

Everyone's expression is not very good.

Most of the officers who came today are officers of the Second Army of the Xie Hongxun Disaster Relief Mobile Force.

Xia Zhaolin, deputy commander of the Second Army of the Disaster Relief Mobile Force, and Wang Mingke, chief of staff.As well as Fang Benren, commander of the Sixth Division of the Disaster Relief Mobile Force, and Fan Zhuxian, commander of the Seventh Division of the Disaster Relief Mobile Force.

Further down are the brigade commanders of the various brigades.

Deng Ruzhuo, Commander of No.16 Brigade of the Sixth Division of Disaster Relief Mobile Force, Lai Shihuang, Commander of No.17 Brigade, and He Shouzhong, Commander of No.18 Brigade.Shangguan Yunxiang, commander of the No.19 Brigade of the Seventh Division of the Disaster Relief Mobile Force, and Yu Hanmou, head of the military security regiment.

As for the 21th Brigade and [-]st Brigade of the Seventh Division stationed in Yueyang, they did not participate in the meeting.

And not only these officers came to the meeting room, but also Sun Yue, the deputy commander of the disaster relief mobile force, and Pan Wenhua, the commander of the No. 18 Army who they thought was monitoring their own troops, were also there.Xie Hongxun sat in the middle, while Sun Yue and Pan Wenhua sat on both sides.

Of course, Zhu Shaoliang, the commander of the First Artillery Brigade, who collected all the artillery units of the Second Army of the Disaster Relief Mobile Force, and the commander of the Second Artillery Brigade, Zou Zuohua, were also there.

The officers of Xie Hongxun's department were very hostile to Pan Wenhua, and to Zhu Shaoliang and Zou Zuohua in the artillery unit.Because for them, these people were all created by the Ministry of Military Affairs to suppress them.Therefore, after entering the house, everyone was hostile to each other, and almost fought.They didn't understand why Xie Hongxun asked them to come to the meeting.

These people are whispering.

The [-]st Artillery Brigade and the [-]nd Deployment Brigade are directly under the command of the Artillery Command and are not subordinate to the [-]nd Army.Moreover, as a disaster relief mobile force, the Second Army does not need to have such a powerful artillery force.

Therefore, there has been no communication between the two parties.

Why did they suddenly come to the meeting of the Second Army.

"Cough cough cough."

Xie Hongxun coughed lightly, telling the officers under him to be more honest.Sure enough, Xie Hongxun coughed a few times, and the officers whispering below fell silent.
