Chapter 123: The Soldiers Commit Nanchang
"But Nanchang is still in their hands, we can't fly over!" Kinoshita's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Hahaha! Kinoshita-kun, why else can you only be a chief of staff? You! is a lack of strategic vision, at this time, Nanchang for us, isn't it as simple as exploring the bag? In fact, as early as a month ago, I and the six generals of Nanjing, Hata Jun, formulated a careful plan to seize Nanchang, and originally decided to launch a full-scale attack on Nanchang on March 20, but now it seems that Jiang Haoran can not be allowed to have time to build a military fortress, so this attack plan may have to be advanced, Kinoshita-kun, order the troops to enter a state of combat readiness! ”
"Hail"!
The sudden increase in Japanese messages immediately attracted the attention of Xue Yue, commander of the First Corps in Nanchang, and soon, the outposts sent express reports one after another, discovering that the Japanese soldiers were divided into three routes, the 104th Division and the Ninth Division were approaching Yongxiu along the Nanxun Railway, the Japanese Second Division was stationed in Wuning and approaching Xiushui, and Panyanghu also found that the Japanese ships were going straight to the hinterland of Daochang from the waterway.
In the northern part of Jiangxi and Hunan, he deployed Luo Zhuoying's 19th Group Army to defend the Nanchang area, Wang Lingji's 30th Group Army to defend the Xiushui area, Tang Enbo's 31st Group Army to garrison the southern part of Hubei and northern Hunan, and Lu Han's First Group Army, Yu Jishi's 74th Army, and Jiang Haoran's Nanshan Independent Brigade respectively controlled Changsha, Liuyang, and Zhuzhou as mobile troops.
When the news reached the Nanshan Independent Brigade, Jiang Haoran was not surprised, but he did not expect that the Japanese army's actions were twenty days earlier than in history, and he also understood that the overwhelming factor in this was that his 331 base stimulated the Japanese army.
The power plants and steel plants of the 331 base have all entered the state of production, and even the 331 arsenal, which is invested by the four major consortia and is divided into two major sectors, weapons production and research and development, and aircraft production and research and development, has also entered the stage of installation and commissioning of the production line. However, it will take some time for the main group of bunkers to be built.
The group of Zimu bunkers, which was originally scheduled to be completed in half a year, because of the rainy season, the phenomenon of landslides occurred frequently during the excavation process, which affected the progress of the project. Who is Mao Yisheng? It is the top civil engineering expert in China, the top bridge expert, the first steel structure railway and highway dual-purpose bridge in Chinese history, the Qiantang River Bridge, is his masterpiece.
For such a great talent, Jiang Haoran naturally didn't dare to hold it up, so he modestly took out the drawings of the group of son-mother bunkers he designed and asked him to correct them. Mao Yisheng is worthy of being an expert, and he can see many deficiencies at a glance, for example, the top floor of the bunker has no shockproof treatment, although the cannonball can not destroy the main body, but if the cannonball falls on the top floor intensively, the huge shock force generated is enough to make the people inside hurt all their internal organs, or even die on the spot. For example, if there are no deep trenches under the mountain, if the enemy does earthwork, digs several tunnels from the ground, and buries explosives, the entire bunker will collapse from below. He also raised some problems in terms of structure and material ratio, and only admired Jiang Haoran to the ground. Jiang Haoran immediately listened to his proposal, revised the original design drawings, and implored him to be the chief engineer of the project. Regarding the anti-Japanese resistance, Mao Yisheng has never been ambiguous, and immediately agreed.
As a result, the project will have to be postponed for at least three months, plus the two months that are still missing, the construction period will be at least five months, and if the speed of the Japanese army breaking through Nanchang in one and a half months in history, plus half a month's rest time, it will take at least three months to complete the construction of the Zimu bunker group.
Trimester? It's not three days, judging from the Japanese army's intention to start the war in advance, it must have also considered the establishment of a military fortress in Zhuzhou, so how to win these three months is Jiang Haoran's biggest headache.
Although Nanchang has nearly ten divisions of Xue Yue's troops, but they are all from the Battle of Wuhan, and the losses of each department are very strict, even if the rest and conscription in the past few months may have reached more than 100,000 in numbers, but how much real combat strength there is, Jiang Haoran does not dare to assert. After several months of training, although he had enough confidence in his troops, Jiang Haoran did not dare to pull them out, in case they were exhausted, then these fortresses would have to ask others to help him defend them, which he did not want to see.
It was only a little more than 200 kilometers from Yongxiu to Nanchang, and the 9th and 104th Divisions of the Japanese Army were both elite field divisions of the Japanese army, both of which had an armored wing and a heavy artillery wing.
For these three months, Jiang Haoran locked himself at home and thought hard for a day, until the evening, when he came out of the house and shouted at the little tiger outside the door: "Order, the officers above the regimental level, the commanders of the guard battalion, and the special service battalion immediately go to the headquarters for a meeting." The Snow Wolf Special Combat Team urgently assembled, first went to the weapons depot to change clothes, brought my equipment with me, and then stood by in the playground! ”
"Yes!" Xiaohu stood upright, and was just about to leave, when Jiang Haoran called back.
"That, the cavalry regiment is stationed farther away, forget it!" Jiang Haoran suddenly remembered that Zhuang Yingying was in the cavalry regiment, don't let her follow her to stir up her own affairs.
Half an hour later, there was a sudden sound of the car's brakes outside, and a sound sounded, and then Liu Dakun led the regiment commanders to the headquarters with a hula and began to shout outside the door: "Brigade seat, is it time to fight, it is time to practice, let these recruits see blood!" ”
When they came in, they found that Jiang Haoran and Liu He were both red-faced, as if after a quarrel, both turned their faces to the side, and they didn't look at each other, this situation is rare, the Nanshan Independent Brigade has always been Jiang Haoran's final say, when it is Liu He's turn to be on the bar with him, unless this matter is so big that Liu He can't accept it.
A group of people came in with laughter and discussions, and when they saw the situation, they were immediately silenced, and they looked at the two of them dumbfounded, neither of them knew what was going on, but everyone knew that this matter was not trivial.
After a long time, Liu Dakun cautiously asked Liu He: "Chief of Staff, what's wrong?" ”
"Ask him!" Liu He rolled his eyes and glanced at Liu Dakun, and said angrily.
"Brigade, this, this ??????" Liu Dakun picked his head and turned his gaze to Jiang Haoran again.
Before Liu Dakun finished speaking, Jiang Haoran roared: "'This' fart! To tell you, that there is nothing for you, that is, to call you to come, is to announce a commandment. From now on, all officers and men are not allowed to leave the defense zone for half a step without my order, and those who violate the order will be killed. Even if it's Xue Yue and the chairman's orders, it won't work! ”
Jiang Haoran didn't want that as soon as he went out, the troops would be transferred to the front line by others, and they would be wiped out in three times and two times, this kind of thing is not impossible, but too likely! That's why he was so solemn.
