Chapter 1025 Reorganization of the Expeditionary Force
"You kid deserve it!" Jiang Haoran dropped a sentence, covered his mouth and left, don't expect Jiang Haoran to do justice in this matter, first, Zhuang Yingying's character can't be changed for a long time, Jiang Haoran doesn't expect no next time, and secondly, she really scolded Zhuang Yingying, and she had to clean up Lei Zhan when she turned around, so this matter can only be like this, Lei Zhan was beaten in vain. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Of course, this kind of fighting between them seems to have never stopped, and this matter is nothing at all.
Entering the compound of the headquarters, Jiang Haoran went straight to the intelligence department, and when he saw Zhuang Fuguo in the office, he asked urgently: "How is it, did there any movement last night?" ”
Zhuang Fuguo said: "Yes, after Leng Ruxue came out of the banquet, he went to the Ruyi Zhai Hotel, and in the early hours of the morning, the radio station in Wild Elephant Valley began to send information to the outside, and the time was quite long, and the message had been intercepted, but they used a new type of password, and I am afraid that it will not be able to be deciphered for the time being." ”
Jiang Haoran said: "No need to decipher, I know what she sent?" ”
Jiang Haoran's mind suddenly came up with the scene of last night's banquet, and at the last moment, he pretended to be drunk and revealed the news of F6F Hellcat and military exercises to Leng Ruxue, his acting skills were absolutely first-class, he believed that no one could see the flaws, and this first step was to go out. Thinking of himself getting under the table last night, Jiang Haoran couldn't help but laugh out loud, if he could go back to his own era, maybe he could still get an actor.
"Boss, you" Zhuang Fuguo's face was full of suspicion.
"Oh, it's fine." Jiang Haoran was startled, quickly returned to normal, and then asked: "Fuguo, how much do you know about Leng Ruxue's identity?" ”
"Except for you and me, only Liu Qiaoshou knows, oh, and the knife may know a little."
"Well, tell the two of you, this news must not be expanded."
"Don't worry, Boss, I'll arrange it."
Jiang Haoran nodded, as if he was about to say something, but he didn't open his mouth after all, waved his hand, and hurriedly walked out of Zhuang Fuguo's office.
He originally wanted to ask Zhuang Fuguo, if Leng Ruxue was not executed, what would he think? But in the next second, he found that not to mention Zhuang Fuguo, even he couldn't pass this level, after all, Leng Ruxue was carrying the blood debt of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, if this made her escape life, she couldn't get over it on her conscience. But now that the situation has changed, Jiang Haoran really can't let Leng Ruxue die like this.
Jiang Haoran returned to the headquarters, and Chen Chen, General He, Chen Shaokuan, Zhou Zhirou, Luo Zhuoying, Huang Jie and others had been waiting for a long time. Hearing that several senior officers were coming, Gu Lian, commander-in-chief of the 41st Group Army, rushed over from Imphal overnight, and behind him sat Tang Enbo, commander of the 1st Green Army.
The four senior members of the party-state are preparing to return to Chongqing today, and before leaving, they have to listen to Jiang Haoran's specific arrangements for the expeditionary force and their plans for the next step, so that they can go back and give an explanation to the chairman of the committee.
The chairmanship of the post of commander-in-chief of the Southeast Asian Theater is no longer powerible, so he sent a congratulatory telegram to Jiang Haoran early this morning, which can be regarded as agreeing with Jiang Haoran's identity, and it is unknown whether the chairman is sincere or forced.
Jiang Haoran first stated his position, no matter what post he was promoted, he will always be a Chinese, and everything he does will be premised on the victory of the War of Resistance and the interests of the country and the nation, and he will never dare to go against it.
China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression has reached the most critical moment, and the strategic center of gravity of the United States and Britain has begun to shift to Asia, and it is a good time for the Chinese army to go all out to recover the lost territory and display its grand plans.
The expeditionary force will always be a sharp knife inserted into the heart of the enemy, and it is only a matter of time before Burma is recovered, and China's southwestern rear will also have no worries because of the existence of the expeditionary force.
Considering that the expeditionary force suffered heavy casualties in this battle, and many divisions were crippled and urgently needed to be replenished in order to cope with the possible frenzied counteroffensive of the Japanese army in the future, Jiang Haoran decided to cancel the establishment of ten divisions of the 41st Group Army from 201 to 210, and all soldiers were incorporated into the damaged units of the expeditionary force, that is, the entire Qingyi Army that entered in the early stage was scattered and incorporated into the expeditionary force.
The 1st Green Army is a type B division, with a quota of 14,000 men, and 10 divisions is 140,000.
This decision was immediately opposed by Gu Lian, the expeditionary force can revoke the number if it is disabled, and it has been done in the past, and there is no problem with letting the 41st Group Army rise to the top, and there is no reason to revoke his 41st Group Army to supplement the expeditionary force.
But Jiang Haoran's attitude was very arrogant, he didn't know what rules he had in the past, but when he got here, all the rules could only be decided by him, and besides, the 41st Group Army not only had to abolish the establishment of ten divisions, but also separated ten more divisions, because he Gu and others did not have that ability, and could not command twenty divisions.
These words can make Gu He so angry that he almost vomited blood, although General He and Chen Chen are in front of these party-state members, but he can't count on it, Chen Chen is not speaking at all, but General He is powerless, and now Jiang Haoran is wearing the title of commander-in-chief of the Southeast Asian Theater, which is already higher than his status as the chief of staff of the Military Commission, besides, who can change the things that the chairman has already given up.
Nearly half a year has passed, and almost all the troops of the 41 st Group Army have been airlifted to India, and no one could have imagined that the 41 st Group Army, which the chairman had painstakingly formed, and the 30 divisions and more than 400,000 troops, would be handed over to Jiang Haoran in this way.
In the past, the chairman of the NPC was the commander-in-chief of the Chinese theater of operations, and Burma and India were still under his jurisdiction, but now that the Southeast Asian theater has been established, it naturally has nothing to do with him, which means that Gu has lost any backers, even if he wants to escape back to China, there is no way out, even if he has many dissatisfactions, he is powerless at the moment, and can only passively accept this reality.
Not only was the 41st Army undergoing major surgery, but the expeditionary force was also undergoing large-scale adjustments.
Although the expeditionary force had already abolished the brigade-level establishment, Jiang Haoran still felt bloated and once again abolished the army-level establishment, and the entire expeditionary force was reorganized into five field armies and one aviation group army.
The Yuanyi Group Army, commander-in-chief Liu Dakun, had six divisions under its command, including the New Third Division, the New Fifth Division, the Qing 211th Division, the Qing 212th Division, the Qing 213th Division, and the Special Operations Division.
The Far Second Group Army, commander-in-chief Luo Zhuoying, has a total of five divisions: the 200th Division, the 22nd Division, the 96th Division, the Qing 214th Division, and the Qing 215th Division.
The Yuansan Group Army, commander-in-chief Zhang Zhen, has a total of five divisions under the jurisdiction of the new 38th Division, 28th Division, 29th Division, Qing 216th Division, and 217th Division.
The Far Fourth Group Army, with Chen Mianwu as the commander-in-chief, has 49 divisions, 93 divisions, 55 divisions, Qing 218 divisions, Qing 219 divisions, and Qing 220 divisions, a total of six divisions, and the defense area is the line from Indo, Homalin to Myitkyina.
The Far Fifth Group Army, the commander-in-chief of Gu Lian, has jurisdiction over the 221st Division to the 230th Division, a total of ten divisions, because almost all of them are newly arrived recruits, temporarily living in India to strengthen training, but the training officers are all transferred from special operations divisions, replacing the original instructors of the United States.
The aviation group, the commander-in-chief is Lieutenant General Ye Zhaofeng, the deputy commander-in-chief Major General Chennault, and the 1st Air Division (reorganized from the original 40th Group Army Flight Group) and the 2nd Air Division (reorganized from the former 14th Air Force of the Mi Army).
Troops directly under the command: Airborne Division, Major General Division Commander Liu Xianwei.
Tank Division, Major General Division Commander Heihu (former commander of the Cavalry Regiment of the 40th Army).
Heavy Artillery Division, Major General Division Commander Zhu Maozhen.
Before the order was issued, Jiang Haoran also took the trouble to ask for the opinions of General He and Chen Chen, and the two looked at him like swallowing a dead fly, you have planned so well, is it still useful for other people's opinions?
Jiang Haoran ignored the contempt of the two, and only when their silence represented the approval, he immediately announced that the order would take effect, and the expeditionary force was immediately reorganized according to this plan.
As for the next operational plan of the expeditionary force? Of course, it is to continue to advance to Mandalay and Yangon, with the goal of occupying the entire territory of Burma, and further afield, that is, to recover the whole of Southeast Asia. Of course, it is too early to say the specific plan of action, and everything can only be planned after the United States has finished this naval battle.
At about 10 o'clock in the morning, Chen Chen, General He, Zhou Zhirou, and Chen Shaokuan set off for China, and Jiang Haoran personally put them on the train. During this period, Jiang Haoran and Chen Shaokuan had separate contacts, and two aircraft carriers were immediately handed over to the Chinese army.
Of course, there is no shortage of weapons and equipment on the aircraft carrier, the most important thing is to select excellent naval officers, this is the opportunity for the rise of the Chinese Navy, Jiang Haoran hopes that Chen Shaokuan can personally take command.
After a period of exchanges, Jiang Haoran also recognized Chen Shaokuan, who was born in the Fujian family, and in the turbulent and turbulent Republic of China period, he was once valued and reused by the chairman of the committee with his extraordinary military talent and sense of responsibility for the navy. However, his upright and single-minded character, coupled with his Fujian background, made him never become a close confidant of the chairman, and he eventually parted ways with the chairman in history.
Perhaps it was with these that Jiang Haoran was determined to bring him into his camp and put these two aircraft carriers in his hands. But no matter what, Chen Shaokuan was full of joy and ambition, and told Jiang Haoran that he would definitely bring out a first-class navy.
Coming back from the train station, the newly appointed commander-in-chief of the Far Fifth Group Army, Gu Lian, had already left, according to Huang Jie, he took Li Tianxia, Huang Baitao and other generals to rush away angrily, this situation Jiang Haoran can imagine, this stomach is resentful, no one will be in a good mood, but Jiang Haoran believes that his mood from today, I am afraid it will be difficult to turn cloudy and sunny, unless he is willing to take the initiative to hand over the ten divisions in his hand, otherwise this matter is not over.
