Chapter 1199 - Command Immoval
There was silence in the war room for a moment, except for the audible ticking sound coming from the telecommunications room next door.
After a long time, Hinata Shiaki asked again: "Your Excellency Chief of Staff, what should you do next?" Does the 17th Division need to pursue in the direction of Shengxian? ”
"You don't have to chase it." Usamitaka waved his hand and said, "Our battle plan this time is different from the previous battles, the previous battles were all aimed at destroying the living forces of the Chinese army, but this battle of Zhejiang-Fujian is to occupy and control central and western Zhejiang, and cut off the Zhejiang-Jiangxi and Zhejiang-Fujian highways as the primary goal. ”
Speaking of this, Usamitaka continued: "So, there is no need to rush to destroy the Shina army. ”
"I see." Hinata Zhiming said after a pause, "Call back to the 17th Division." ”
Seeing Hinata Zhiming's figure walk into the telecommunications room next door, Usamitaka frowned a little, what caused the 28th Army of the National Army to suddenly withdraw from Ciwu Town?
……
South Gate of Xiaoshan County, Temporary Division Headquarters of the 17th Division.
The chief of staff of the 17th Division, Shimae Hishen, took the telegram and hurriedly walked into the war room.
Hirono Taiji glanced at Shimae Bishen and said in a deep voice: "Shimae-kun, what did Usamitaka say?" ”
Because he already had a grudge against Usamitaka in his heart, Hirono Taiyoshi didn't even bother to call the other party again, but directly began to name him.
Daojiang Bishen said: "Your Excellency the Chief of Staff ordered us to continue to attack and advance along the south bank of the Fuchun River to Yiwu and Jinhua according to the original plan. ”
"Continue south?" Hirono Taiyoshi snorted coldly, "It seems that Usamitaka is not ready to admit his mistakes, doesn't this person have a little shame?" If you do something wrong, don't you even have the courage to admit it? ”
Shimae was more cautious than silent, because of Hirono Taiyoshi's words, he didn't dare to take it, he was just a big sa, and he still wanted to be promoted to major general within the year, and then go to an independent mixed brigade to become a brigade commander, but if he wanted to go this further, he had to get the recommendation of Nishio Shouzo, the commander of the 13th Army and the commander-in-chief of the Chinese Dispatch Army.
And Usamitaka is the most trusted person in Nishio Shouzo.
Therefore, Shimae Hishin did not want to offend Usamitaka.
After a moment of silence, Daojiang Bishen continued: "Division commander, the 54th Infantry Wing has already made its own decision and pursued in the direction of Shengxian, so let's quickly order them to stop the pursuit." ”
Hirono Taiyoshi did not agree immediately, but looked at the map.
After looking at the map for a while, Hirono Taiji said: "The 54th Infantry Wing is only allowed to pursue to Jintang Town as far as possible, and then turn south and march with the main force of the division, and attack and advance in the direction of Zhuji County. ”
"Hello!" Shimae shook his head sharply and turned to convey the order.
……
The situation on the battlefield is changing slightly, and the commanders on both sides want to control the overall situation as much as possible, but in actual combat, there are often changes of one kind or another.
Some of these incidents came from disturbances at the top, while others came from disobedience at the front.
In the previous battles, the first to have accidents and more accidents were often the national army, which was also one of the important reasons for the repeated defeats of the national army.
But this time, it was the devil who was the first to change.
More precisely, the 54th Infantry Wing!
When the telegram was received from the division headquarters, the 54th Infantry Wing had already pursued to Jintang Town.
From Ciwu Town to Jintang Town, it was only fifty miles, and all of them were main roads, so the national army withdrew quickly, and the 54th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army was not slow to pursue.
After receiving the order from the division headquarters, Ichiro Kameda, the wing commander of the 54th Infantry Wing, did not take it seriously, but decisively ordered the main force of the wing to continue to chase forward.
Kameda Ichiro was also deeply stimulated by the battle in Jiwu Town before the second time.
In the battle of Ciwu Town, although the 54th Wing faced the siege of the three divisions of the national army, Kameda Ichiro did not pay attention to it at all, if it were not for the division headquarters strictly ordering them to switch from attack to defense, Kameda Ichiro even wanted to fight against the national army, and he was confident enough to defeat the three main divisions of the national army in turn.
Kameda Ichiro was transferred from the Fifth Division not long ago, so his morale is very high.
What is the defeat of three divisions of the national army by one infantry wing? In the Xinkou battlefield that year, the two infantry wings of their Fifth Division even defeated more than 30 divisions!
Therefore, although the first order of the division headquarters was difficult to accept, Kameda Ichiro still carried it out.
But now that the division headquarters has issued another unacceptable order, Kameda Ichiro is not ready to carry it out, isn't it just three divisions of the Chinese army? We don't need the main force of the division to shoot at all, our 54th Infantry Wing can solve it, and it won't take long, and it's not too late to go to Zhuji after eating these three divisions.
So Kameda Ichiro did not carry out the orders of the division headquarters at all.
……
The south gate of Xiaoshan County, the temporary division headquarters of the 17th Division.
Daojiang Birchen darkened his face and strode into the war room.
"Division Commander!" Daojiang Bishen said, "The aviation scouts report that the 54th Infantry Wing has not stopped pursuing, but has crossed the border of Zhuji County and Shengxian County and entered the boundary of Shengxian County!" ”
"This Kameda Ichiro, what are you doing?" Hirono Taiyoshi said with a frown.
But deep down, Taiyoshi Hirono was actually not angry, and even a little secretly happy, because Kameda Ichiro did something he wanted to do but didn't dare to do.
Shimae Bishen said in a deep voice: "Division commander, hurry up and order the Kameda Wing to stop, if they chase further, it will be a lone army deep into the mountainous area of central Zhejiang, at this time, once the main force of the 28th Army of the escaping China and the three divisions of the nearby 91st Army launch a centripetal attack, it will be dangerous." ”
It has always been taboo for soldiers to go deep alone, and it is easy to be surrounded by the enemy's superior forces.
Once encircled by the enemy's superior forces, no matter how elite the troops are, it is useless.
For example, the 74th Division in the War of Liberation was even no less effective than the 1st Army Division of the US Army, but once it fell into the heavy encirclement of Huaye, it would be dead or alive.
Such a simple truth, of course Hirono Taiji knows.
However, Hirono Taiyoshi does not think that Kameda United's current lonely situation is already lonely.
Waving his hand, Hirono Taiji said indifferently: "Shimae-kun, don't be nervous, even if the Kameda Wing enters Shengxian, the distance between it and the main force of the division is only more than a hundred miles, and the rapid march can be reached in one day!" At such a close distance, let alone mobilize the forces of two armies, even if it is two group armies, don't want to swallow the Kameda Wing. ”
Daojiang was silent when he heard this, but his heart began to become a little worried.
Because Shimae was cautious, the Japanese army began to show signs of immobility.
PS: There's been a lot of things lately, just two chapters, and I'm sorry to everyone.
