Chapter 908: Do it yourself
As soon as the press conference of Lu'an exploded, it was the Japanese who were panicked, although the result of the loss of Lu'an could also make them foresee the critical situation of the Eleventh Army, but this kind of blatant publicity made them feel even more frightened, and the mood of reinforcing Jinzhai to reopen the main road of Lu'an was more urgent, and a large number of Japanese troops began to march towards Jinzhai.
In this short period of less than half an hour, Bai Chongxi had already sent three telegrams to confirm whether he wanted to give up blocking the Japanese army and let them enter Jinzhai.
Bai Chongxi is known as Xiao Zhuge , naturally he can see through the powerful relationship in this, once the Japanese army is allowed to enter Jinzhai, it will be extremely difficult to cut off the retreat of the Japanese army from now on, and it is entirely possible for the Japanese Eleventh Army to jump out of the encirclement they have carefully constructed.
At this moment, the chairman of the committee is really difficult to be a rat in the bellows, and he is really unwilling to let the Yan'an troops enter Hubei, Henan and Anhui, but if the previous plan is implemented again, it is no longer realistic to postpone the attack.
At this time, the Battle of Wuhan had been raised to the height of international anti-fascism, and the allies all over the world were paying attention to this battle, and a great victory in annihilating the Japanese army into an army was enough to make the allies excited to death, and the positive effect on the anti-fascists was simply immeasurable.
Without the publicity of this press conference, the chairman could have covered it up with tactical mistakes, but now, even fools can see the mystery in this. Now China is still inseparable from the material support of the allies, and chilling their hearts is equivalent to digging their own back road, and they are in a dilemma!
After some deliberations, the Military Commission finally decided to carry out the original plan again, to carry out a comprehensive encirclement of the Japanese army, and all the troops in the front line were transferred from a defensive state to an offensive state, and the 11th Army of the Japanese army was swept away with a thunderous force.
From the beginning to the end of the meeting, the chairman of the committee did not look at Jiang Haoran again, obviously extremely disappointed.
Jiang Haoran is also an arrogant person, he didn't even plan to say hello, so he was about to leave, but it was Leng Rushuang who dragged him in front of the chairman, and Jiang Haoran had to ask the chairman for his resignation.
"Do it yourself!"
The chairman of the committee threw these four words at Jiang Haoran with a dark face, and without saying a word, Jiang Haoran was so happy that he turned around and left.
As soon as he left the headquarters, Chen Chen chased him out, Weng and his son-in-law stood under a big camphor tree, and silently finished smoking a cigarette, Chen Chen broke the silence and said: "To be honest, it's hard for me to understand why you treat them so well, even disregarding your own future and net worth, can you give me a reason?" ”
"Is it enough to unite the forces that can unite and drive out the Japanese invaders and recover the rivers and mountains?"
"I don't want to listen to these big truths, with your strategy and tactics, you can completely achieve the best of both worlds, but not only did you not do this, but instead let them stand at the forefront of the war under the nose of the chairman, let them have a foothold, don't think that you have done it seamlessly, in fact, fools can see that this is the result of your single-handedly planning."
"Isn't this just right, let them stand at the forefront and consume with the devils, which is in line with the consistent spirit of the chairman."
"Are you angry at me? But I sue you, it's useless for you to say this angry thing to me, it's not for the girl's face, I don't bother to say this to you, no matter if you have the ability to fly away, your current appearance will bring you endless trouble. Chen Chen's face was full of anger, and he hated that iron could not become steel.
Jiang Haoran smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Chen, I know you are doing it for my good, but do you say that it is still useful for me to explain now?" If I say that I am not as good as Yan'an in terms of tactics and strategy, can you believe that I am inferior in chess? ”
"Tell me your reasoning?" Chen Chen seemed to be a little moved.
"Do you need to talk about the reason? If I really have anything to do with them, will I come to Changsha at this time? Carrying out the orders of the Military Commission with peace of mind, and then waiting for the press conference in Lu'an, the Military Commission still has to carry out the original plan, can I be in a hurry? ”
"Well, this can be regarded as a reason, okay, you don't have any burden, where will I try my best to mediate, and fight this battle with peace of mind, right?" Chen Chen nodded.
Seeing Jiang Haoran jump into the car with a cold frost and a knife, and gallop away all the way, Chen Chen lit a cigarette and lingered under the tree for a long time before turning around and returning to the headquarters.
Because of this commotion, these senior members in the command headquarters were all whispering in groups of three or five, and the chairman had already returned to the lounge, presumably already dizzy.
After finding a staff officer and asking where the chairman was, Chen Chen knocked on the door of the chairman's lounge.
It was Dai Li, who opened the door, nodded at Chen Chen, made a gesture of please, and after Chen Chen entered the house, Dai Li, gently closed the door and retreated.
The chairman of the committee stood at the desk with his hands behind his back and gave Chen Chen a lonely back.
Chen Chen stepped forward and repeated the conversation he had just had with Jiang Haoran, and the chairman did not look back, nor did he say anything, but only clenched the hand behind him into a fist and tightened.
At about 9 o'clock in the morning, the Jiujiang section of the Yangtze River.
The two pontoon bridges have been completed, and the dense number of ** soldiers are crossing the river at a steady pace.
More than 300 fighters from the 40th Group Army's Flying Group and the 14th Air Brigade were fighting against more than 400 fighters and bombers of the Japanese Army's Third Flying Division and First Flying Division.
More than 700 planes fought fiercely in the sky, the scene was magnificent and vast, for this crossing of the river, Jiang Haoran took out all the old bottom, and the Japanese army also went all out, not only poured out all of the Third Flying Division in Central China, but also urgently transferred the First Flying Division in Northeast China.
This large-scale air battle was fought entirely for these two pontoon bridges, and the Japanese army knew too well what consequences the three divisions of the 40th Army would have to cross the river and what consequences it would bring to the 11th Army in Wuhan, so they did their best to prevent it.
The air battle began at about 8 o'clock in the morning and ended at about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, because all the soldiers and men crossed the river.
Although the Sino-Militane Joint Flying Group was numerically inferior to the powerful Japanese army, it relied on the calm dispatch and command of the airborne radar, the superior performance of the Mustang fighters, and the pilots' tenacious fighting will, and they were able to block the Japanese troops on the periphery of the pontoon bridge.
In the course of nearly eight hours, there were only two Japanese planes, and a total of five fighters successfully broke through the defense line of the Sino-Mimetric coalition forces and entered the sky over the pontoon bridge, but only one plane succeeded in dropping a 60-kilogram bomb, and then it was targeted by the Mustang, and all five fighters were blown up by volley.
