Chapter 129: The Min War Begins
The military attache continued to analyze the situation on the battlefield, "If the three northern regiments of Division Commander Xu cannot come back to help, we can only hold on to the enemy. If this rod does turn into a war of attrition, it will be very bad for us. Fujian's grain production areas are mainly in southern Fujian and eastern Fujian. As long as Wang Le's army controls these places, they will have a steady stream of supplies to fight us. ”
Sun Bald nodded, "Once the fight starts, how long can our grain reserves last?" ”
The military attache thought for a while and said a conservative figure, "About a week, a week later, our soldiers will have less than half a catty of food a day. After two weeks, our front-line fighters will be fighting the enemy on an empty stomach. ”
Sun Bald sighed, "Damn, Lu Yongxiang is an administrator, I am all martial artists here, and there is no civil official available." If I had someone like Zhang Zidong and supported me financially, I wouldn't have to wag my tail and beg the Japanese for mercy and let them get stuck in the neck of our army. ”
"How is the situation of Master Xu in Hankou? If we have Division Commander Xu in our front-line position, we will definitely give the enemy a huge deterrent. The military attache asked.
"He is now trapped in Hankow, and this kid is now quite progressive, and he knows how to analyze problems from the big picture. He told me that the most important reason why other armies under our direct line are now watching the situation in Fujian from across the strait is that Lao Wu talks about cooperation with the Soviets in Beijing. He was ready to take advantage of the workers' disturbances in Hankow to tear up the cooperation between the Soviet Union and Lao Wu, and at this time it was possible for our reinforcements to arrive. He also contacted Zhang Zidong, and Zhang also promised to persuade Lu Yongxiang not to move. Now it's time for Xu Hu, the front-line general, to make moves in the rear line. ”
"Report to the marshal!" A herald rushed in with a disgraced face, "Wang Le's vanguard has crossed the Qinghe River and launched a fierce attack on our defensive forces. They have set up a booth on the north bank, and the reinforcements are crossing the river to support. ”
"What?" Sun Bald was furious, he took the phone and asked the commander of the artillery unit of City A, "Li Toutou, what are you kid doing, the enemy's vanguard has already arrived on the north bank of the Qing River, is your cannon in the bed to lay cubs?" ”
The head of Li on the other end of the phone spoke slurredly, and after a while, his adjutant answered the phone, "Report to the marshal, today our General Li is happy with your son, and we have had a few more drinks, and the brothers from the War Department have come to his house to congratulate him, so the military situation has been delayed." ”
"Damn!" Sun Bald scolded, "From now on, you take over the command of your commander in battle, the enemy is now fierce against the reinforcement of troops on the north bank, you must use artillery to give me a hard stop their river-crossing troops, repeat the order." ”
The adjutant said in a loud voice, "Yes, we will definitely block their river-crossing troops and relieve the pressure on our defensive positions." ”
Sun Bald slammed the phone, "Damn, this Li has a big head." ”
The military attache was very angry, "Marshal, the chief general on the battlefield should be engaged in the warlord's dereliction of duty to set an example." ”
Sun Bald shook his head, "Li Datou is my classmate at the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School, and the artillery of our army can be formed, and this kid has contributed a lot." He was with that ... ”
The military attache picked up the conversation before Sun Bald could finish speaking, "He was the teaching assistant of Okamura Ninji, one of the three crows, Dashuai, you have told this story ten times. To be honest, I don't look down on Japan's rotten artillery, the caliber is so small, it's okay to build a civil building, if it really encounters a concrete bunker built by regular troops, it won't be useful. ”
Sun Bald waved his hand, "It's better than nothing!" Wang Le, a bastard, said that he would attack in a few days, and he rushed to Lao Tzu before the telegram arrived. ”
"Soldiers, treacherous! Wang Le is paralyzing us, and he is not prepared to attack me. "The military attache used a blue military flag to mark the location of Wang Le's troops on the map." Fortunately, Wang Le's troops do not have heavy weapons, if they also have artillery, our forward positions may not be able to withstand it. ”
Sun Bald looked at the map and said, "Tell the regiments of Division Commander Xu to closely monitor the movements of the Zhejiang army, and if Wang Le fights here, Lu Yongxiang will soon be unable to sit still." Alas, Xu Hu, now it's up to you to behave in Hankow. ”
The next day, it was dawn and the workers went to work early. It was almost ten o'clock when Zhang Damin arrived at Hankou Station, and at this time, except for a few key departments, the workers went to work one after another. He carefully inspected the work of the workers with a rubber stick, and the attitude of the workers was indeed much better than before, no longer complaining, and everyone was busy with the things at hand in an orderly manner.
A banner was hung on the gate outside the waiting hall of the station, "Representatives from all walks of life in Hankou warmly welcome the special envoy to the Chuankou Railway!" Several workers stood on a ladder and measured the angle of the banner.
"Straighten the banner a little bit, it's all crumpled together." Zhang Damin commanded, "Oops! "There was a big man who bumped into Zhang Damin. The cigarette butt in the man's hand accidentally burned to Zhang Damin's epaulettes, "You fucking be careful." ”
The man's face was full of apologies, "I'm really sorry boss!" The man patted Zhang Damin's epaulettes with his hand to dust off the ashes.
Zhang Damin looked at the big man carefully, "Who are you?" ”
The big man's face was embarrassed, and then Lu Shu flashed out and bowed to Zhang Damin, "Boss, this is my cousin, come to the station to bring me food." ”
Zhang Damin asked suspiciously, "Deliver food?" We are now in charge of four meals a day at the station, which meal are you sending? ”
This big man is Shi San, he took out a cigarette and handed it to Zhang Damin, Zhang Damin saw that it was Xiaohuan, this kind of rotten cigarette was not interested at all, "Don't smoke, don't smoke." ”
Lu Shuzhang explained, "I am a native of Hunan who loves spicy food, and my cousin specializes in spicy fried bacon. He lifted the lunch box in his hand and opened it. Cousin, I've been looking for you for a long time, why did you go. ”
Shi San touched his head innocently, "I want to go to the thatched house, but I can't find it after looking for a long time." ”
Zhang Damin relaxed his guard when he heard their explanation, "Old Lu, what about you Chairman Wu?" I've been around the station all morning, and I haven't seen him. ”
Lu Shuzhang shook his head, "I don't know, what's going on, I haven't seen anyone all morning." ”
Zhang Damin patted Lu Zhang's shoulder, "You guys didn't do anything about resuming work this time!" ”
Lu Shu wiped his nose, "Don't say it, we really don't want to return to work, but look at this cold weather, where will the brothers get the money to survive the winter if they don't go to work." Mr. Zhang, let's go and get busy first, you continue to inspect, continue to inspect. ”
