Chapter 813: Start Early
Little Peach and the others were overjoyed, but the little devil was angry. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
In one night, the Central China Aviation Regiment dispatched more than 200 sorties of combat reconnaissance planes to conduct intensive patrols of Dameishan and the nearby airspace, but what was annoying was that the Type 96 long-range bomber and the long-range bomber that had been stolen by the wolf's teeth were never found, and the long-range bomber disappeared like air!
Because he couldn't find the 008 bomber that was snatched by the wolf's fang, he couldn't help but feel weak when he met Nishio Shouzo and Kawabe Shozo, because he made a package with these two people last night, saying that before dawn, he would definitely find the stolen 008 bomber and shoot it down! All in all, such a strategic bomber will definitely not be allowed to fall into the hands of the Dameishan Independent Regiment.
But now, the cruel reality has slapped Tadaji in the face resoundingly.
However, what should be faced must be faced after all, and hiding cannot be avoided no matter what.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Tadaji Shiga walked into the combat hall of the headquarters on time, first bowed deeply to Nishio Shouzo, and then said respectfully: "Your Excellency, General! ”
Nishio Shouzo waved his hand, frowned, and said, "The 008 bomber hasn't been found yet?" ”
"Hello." "The 2nd, 5th, and 7th Reconnaissance Squadrons and the 6th, 8th, and 12th Fighter Squadrons have been patrolling the airspace over Dameishan and the vicinity, but no bomber No. 008 has been spotted until they leave for the battle hall. ”
Kawabe Masan said angrily: "Duty Ka-san, what did you say in the early hours of this morning? ”
"Hello." He paused again and said, "I am incompetent, please punish the chief of staff." ”
Kawabe Shozo originally really planned to have a seizure, but Oga Tadaji's attitude of admitting his mistake was so good, but it made Kawabe Shozo a little uncomfortable, after all, he was a colleague, or a level, and it was not too much.
"Alright." Nishio Shouzo made a timely statement, "On duty, we will continue to dispatch combat reconnaissance planes to carry out uninterrupted patrols of Dameishan and the surrounding airspace, in short, we must not let the Dameishan Independent Regiment transport the 008 long-range bomber back to Dameishan, and we must find and destroy the 008 bomber at all costs." ”
"Hello!" Tadaji Shiga paused, then turned and left.
Seeing the figure of Tadaji on duty leave, Nishio Shouzo turned his gaze to Kawabe Shozo again and asked, "Riverside-san, has the base camp been restored?" ”
"Hello." Kawabe Shosan paused and said, "The base camp has been restored." ”
Nishio Shouzo sighed and asked, "How long will it take to replenish the ammunition?" ”
Kawabe Shozo said in a deep voice: "The base camp replied that it will take at least a month. ”
"At least a month?" Nishio Shouzo frowned and said, "In another month, it's almost the New Year." ”
"yes, it's almost the New Year in a month." Hebian Zhengsan said worriedly, "And I heard that the Dameishan Independent Regiment has organized a large number of people to dig tunnels in Puxian, Shanxian and Guanxian counties, and in a month, the Dameishan Independent Regiment may be able to build an underground Great Wall on the periphery of Dameishan." ”
"Authentically?" Nishio Shouzo frowned and said, "This shouldn't be enough to stop the mechanized troops of the Imperial Army, right?" ”
Kawabe Shozo said: "Of course, relying on the tunnel alone is not enough to stop the advance of the mechanized troops of the imperial army, but it is no problem to delay for a while, Your Excellency, it will take a month for the ammunition to be replenished, and if it is delayed for half a month on the periphery, it will really enter the New Year." ”
"So what?" Nishio Shouzo said, "According to your assumption, as long as two divisions and one detachment of the imperial army advance to Dameishan, we will win this battle!" ”
"Your Excellency the General doesn't know anything." Kawabe Shozo said worriedly, "By the end of the year, it is very likely that the mountainous area of central Anhui will usher in continuous bad weather, and at that time, even the snowstorm will be good, if it encounters rainy weather for several days, the fire will not burn at all, and then it will be troublesome." ”
"Really?" Nishio Shouzao said, "At the end of the year, will there really be bad weather in the mountainous area of central Anhui? ”
"Hello." Hebian Zhengsan paused and said, "The humble post has been confirmed with the Anhui Chinese officials of the Restoration Government, and these Anhui Chinese officials said that every year near the end of the year, the mountainous areas of Anhui will usher in bad weather for a long time, sometimes lasting for three or five days, sometimes even for more than half a month!" ”
There were many officials of Chinese nationality in Anhui in the new government, and this is credible.
Nishio Shouzo frowned and said: "Riverside San, that is to say, if we wait for the base camp to replenish the ammunition before we start, it is very likely that we will not be able to advance to Damei Mountain before the end of the year, and then after we advance to Damei Mountain, it is very likely that we will encounter continuous bad weather, resulting in the inability to set fire to the mountain, is that so?" ”
"Hello." Kawabe Shosan paused and said, "Your Excellency the General." ”
"So." Nishio Toshizo then asked, "What do you suggest?" ”
"Hello." Kawabe Shozo paused again, "The lowly suggestion is, do it in advance!" ”
"Do it early?" Nishio Shouzo said, "Don't wait for the ammunition replenishment in the base camp? ”
"Hai, we can't wait any longer, we have to do it right away." Kawabe was struggling three times, and then turned back to Nakamura Jun and said, "Nakamura-san, did you calculate the accounting I asked you to do last night?" ”
"Hello." Nakamura replied, "It's already calculated." ”
Kawabe Masan hummed lightly and said, "Please tell me your accounting results." ”
Nakamura Jun immediately picked up a document, opened it, and said: "With the existing ammunition storage in Nanjing and Pukou, it can probably last the 104th Division for seven days; With the existing ammunition storage in Feicheng, it can maintain the needs of the 6th Division for about half a month; With the existing ammunition storage in Huainan, it can probably maintain the Iida Detachment's January combat needs. ”
After a pause, Nakamura Jun read again: "If the ammunition storage from Wuhan and Jiujiang is transported to Nanjing, it can maintain the needs of the 104th Division for seven days. ”
Shozo Kawabe said: "In other words, with the existing ammunition reserves, there is no problem in maintaining the operational needs for half a month. ”
Nishio Shouzo said: "Half a month, are you sure to take Damei Mountain?" If it doesn't work, it will be troublesome to withdraw the troops halfway. ”
"I'm afraid it's hard." Kawabe Shozo shook his head, and said, "The plan of the humble post is to occupy Puxian, Shanxian and Guanxian within half a month, advance the battle line to the vicinity of Damei Mountain, and then set fire to the mountain, and then hold the existing front for half a month, and wait for the ammunition replenished by the base camp to be in place, and then carry out a general attack!" ”
"I see." Nishio Shouzo's eyes lit up when he heard this.
Nishio Shouzo must admit that in the absence of a better way, Kawabe Shozo's response plan is also a good plan, at least, according to this method, it can ensure that the primeval forest of Damei Mountain is burned and the threat of Xu Rui's wolf tooth troops is minimized, of course, this plan is also quite risky.
One of the biggest risks is to stick to it after advancing to Dameishan.
Because at this time, after half a month of fighting, the ammunition reserves of the 6th Division, the 104th Division, and the Iida Detachment have basically been exhausted, but then they will have to face the counterattack of the Dameishan Independent Regiment, and it is completely conceivable that the counterattack of the Dameishan Independent Regiment will be very crazy and resolute.
Because Xu Rui is so spicy, it is impossible not to know what it means after the primeval forest of Damei Mountain is burned?
Therefore, how to survive this half month will be the key, as long as this half month is over, the ammunition replenished by the base camp is in place, the 104th Division, the 6th Division and the Iida Detachment can launch a general attack on Dameishan, and at that time, Xu Rui has the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, and he will not be able to reverse the defeat of the independent regiment.
Nishio Shouzo said: "The Sixth Division and the 104th Division should be fine, but can the Iida detachment hold out for more than half a month under the onslaught of the Dameishan Independent Regiment?" ”
Kawabe Shozo said: "Your Excellency, even if the Iida detachment can't survive for half a month, even if the Iida detachment is completely annihilated by the Dameishan Independent Regiment, it's nothing, because as long as the replenishment of ammunition from the base camp arrives, even if there is no Iida detachment, the Sixth Division and the 104th Division alone are enough to flatten Dameishan." ”
After a slight pause, Kawabe Shozo continued: "Moreover, our combat goal is only to occupy Dameishan, not to completely annihilate the Dameishan Independent Regiment. ”
Nishio Shouzo shook his head and laughed at himself: "It's that I'm greedy." ”
Indeed, the goal of this sweep was very clear from the very beginning, that is, to occupy Dameishan in order to destroy the war potential of the Dameishan Independent Regiment, and it was not necessary to completely annihilate the Dameishan Independent Regiment, because with Xu Rui's tactical command ability, it was too difficult to completely annihilate the Dameishan Independent Regiment.
Shozo Kawabe asked, "Your Excellency, what is your opinion?" ”
"Riverside San, just do it according to your intentions, let's do it in advance." Nishio Shouzo nodded, and said, "In addition, the troops involved in the sweep may not need to hold out for half a month, I will contact the North China Front and the Kwantung Army, and ask the North China Front and the Kwantung Army to support some of our ammunition as much as possible." ”
Kawabe Shozo happily said, "If that's the case, it couldn't be better." ”
"Yo Si." Nishio Shouzo patted Kawabe Shozo on the shoulder and said, "Kawabe-san, let go of your hands and feet, I will give you full support, and I firmly believe that you will succeed." ”
"Hello." The river is stumbling three times.
Nishio Shouzo turned around and left, and Kawabe Shozo turned his gaze to Nakamura Jun again and shouted, "Nakamura-san." ”
I didn't think about it, but Nakamura Jun didn't seem to hear it, just staring out the window with his eyes.
The river was shouting several times in a row, and Nakamura Jun woke up like a dream, and quickly said, "Hai, Your Excellency Chief of Staff?" ”
"Nakamura-san, are you tired because you haven't slept well for two days?" Kawabe Shozo said with concern, "However, I'm afraid you'll have to work hard for a few more days." (To be continued.) )
