Chapter 618: The 51st Division of the Seventy-Fourth Army!
The commander of the 74th Army was Yu Jishi, and after receiving Chen Cheng's telegram, Yu Jishi thought he was wrong at first, but after taking a closer look, he couldn't help but show a wry smile.
It turns out that all this is the meaning of the commission.
Thinking of this, Yu Jishi couldn't help but suddenly have a funny thought like Chen Cheng.
Xindao's commission is really fancy to Chen Qingzhi!
Shook his head helplessly, and then sent this telegram to the 51st Division and the 58th Division under his jurisdiction, and after receiving Yu Jishi's telegram, the commander of the 51st Division, Wang Yaowu, immediately rushed to Changsha with his troops, and Liao Lingqi, the commander of the 58th Division, also immediately took his headquarters to the surrounding areas of Changsha to move, ready to support at any time, in addition, Yu Jishi ordered the 57th Division under the jurisdiction of the 74th Army, so that it was also ready for battle and participated in the battle at will.
For a time, the entire 74th Army was immediately mobilized, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
The 74th Army is one of the trump card troops, the most elite units of the 15th Group Army, and the 51st and 58th Divisions are the elite of the 74th Army.
You must know that this 74th Army is the later provisional 74th Division!
One of the five ace troops!
Even though it is only the 74th Army, this unit has been fighting well since its establishment, and in several battles before, it has erupted into a very fierce combat effectiveness, which has brought a very painful blow to the Japanese army!
Now that the 74th Army is mobilized to Changsha, and it is still an elite, let it cooperate with the independent regiment and Chen Qingzhi, what does this mean?
Needless to say, you'll understand!
Jiang someone, Chen Cheng and Yu Jishi all understood that Chen Qingzhi was a good hand in the war, and what he was best at was to defeat the strong with the weak, and to attack more with less, in the face of the attack of the Japanese Third Division, if it was just an independent regiment, it would definitely not be able to resist, but if there was one more 51st Division, it would be different!
Although the current 51st Division is not as rebellious as the later reorganization of the 74th, it is still under the command of Wang Yaowu, a fierce general, and its combat effectiveness is also good!
In the Battle of Changsha, Chen Qingzhi of the Independent Regiment was the commander-in-chief of the former enemy, leading the battle against the Japanese Third Division, although this was a control area specially demarcated by the two sides, and it was a revenge battle of the Third Division, but this was also Chen Qingzhi's first appearance!
Both sides have reasons why they can't afford to fail!
The 3rd Division of the Japanese Army was for revenge, and the division commander Yamakashi Masataka was to secure the position of the commander of the first-class division under him, and to complete the tasks of the base camp and the headquarters of the Central China Front.
The independent regiment represents the requirement of sticking to Changsha and not allowing for loss and must win!
Therefore, in this case, once these two sides really start fighting, the two sides will definitely fight to the death!
The reason for this strange battle was that neither side wanted to expand the combat area and wanted to control the war in one part.
So the Japanese side only used the 3rd Division, because this is a battle of revenge!
Therefore, the Ninth Theater also asked Chen Qingzhi of the Independent Regiment to be the commander-in-chief, and only sent a division to support, and it was also an elite division!
It's just a stage!
It's also a contest between the two sides!
……
The 74th Army has 51 divisions under its jurisdiction.
After receiving the order from Shangfeng, the 51st Division had already set off and headed towards Changsha, with more than 10,000 soldiers and men of all kinds of people in a division, and the team stretched like a long dragon.
A jeep drove from the back of the procession, drove to the front, and then stopped next to the procession, and an officer got out of the car, wearing a military coat, took a look at the long line and asked: "Have you contacted the Changsha side?" ”
Hearing this, an officer standing behind him immediately walked up, saluted and said: "Report to the division, the independent regiment has been contacted, and they asked them to rush to Changsha as soon as possible and set up a defensive front in the east area north of Changsha!" ”
"Hmmm! That being the case, let the troops speed up the march, and it is imperative that they ...... Arrive at the intended combat position tomorrow afternoon! The officer said in a deep voice.
"Yes! But when ......" said this, the officer standing behind showed a hesitant look on his face, and said a little unwillingly: "Master, you said that we really want to listen to the order of the regiment commander?" He's just a regiment! How can He De command one of our divisions? What's more, it's still our 51st Division! ”
When the officer said this, there was a look of unwillingness and disdain on his face.
Hearing this, the officer couldn't help but look back at him, tilted his head and looked at him stunned, looking at the officer's heart a little hairy, he couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, and stammered: "Division, division, seat ......."
"Don't say that again!" Without waiting for the officer to speak, the division commander said in a cold voice.
This division commander is Wang Yaowu, the commander of the 51st Division!
Standing there, he couldn't help but tug at his military coat with both hands, exhaled a breath of white air, rubbed his palms and said, "This damn weather is really cold...... This is the order of the military seat and the commander-in-chief, and even the commission! ”
"Let a regiment command two divisions, do you think the top doesn't understand? Do you think it's too shocking to know above? But why would they do it? Do you know why! This is a stage, this is a stage for Chen Qingzhi and the independent troupe to play! ”
"Chen Qingzhi is the protagonist of singing, and we are a supporting role in both the 51st Division and the 58th Division, even the third division of the Japanese army is just a supporting role! This time, it's just a stage specially made up to let Chen Qingzhi appear on stage! ”
"Just imagine, in order to build this stage for Chen Qingzhi, the above even did not hesitate to let him command the battle for the groundbreak, can we still disobey the order? I'll tell you the truth, this time we have to cooperate not only with the independent regiment, but also with spare no effort! Otherwise, if this battle is strong because of us, not only the military seat and even the commander-in-chief, but even the committee will have a great opinion on us! ”
"But as long as you play well this time and seize the opportunity, even if you play a supporting role, you can't take advantage of the light of the protagonist!" Wang Yaowu looked at the gloomy sky and said in a deep voice: "This time, our 51st Division will take advantage of this opportunity, and after we arrive, we must also cooperate with the operation of the independent regiment. ”
