Chapter Seventy-Six: Just let Chang Kaishen carry the pot
Belch...... I know you can't be the master, General Wu, this is a big deal. But I'm not surprised by this www.biquge.info I'm surprised by what you say about my bad ideaβyou actually say it's interesting? If you want to change a Taoist who can't rub sand in his eyes, I'm afraid he would have scolded me a bloody dog, right?
"Although I don't want to admit it, but in the case of the loss of Hamiwei and the threat of Zhangye, we can't save Dihua City." Wu Luzhen tapped his fingers on the table, "In this case, for the sake of the overall situation, it is not impossible to adopt some extraordinary methods, and we can't let the Soviets use Dihua City to drag us down again." β
That's true, but General Wu, your decision was made too quickly, right? Aren't you afraid of losing your official hat if you do this? Look at what happened to the poor blue sky general! What's more, didn't you just say that you can't call the shots on such a big matter?
"I will submit your opinion to His Majesty the Emperor." Wu Luzhen let out a long sigh and covered her forehead, "Please rest assured, Lord Zhen, I will countersign my name in the back, in case Your Majesty blames you, I will definitely not let you carry it alone."
Hey, hey, General Wu, can you not talk to yourself like this? I've never said I'd ever say I'd take this idea up to heaven!
"That General Wu, ...... directly Tell Your Majesty about this plan directly? "I grinned, God knows what the emperor thinks of the curve to save the country, not to mention whether the people on the front line are willing to cooperate is another matter. Many people have a lot of resistance to being a traitor, and there are some people who would rather be a traitor than a "red. Hue. Divide. sub "...... It makes me feel a headache when I think about it.
"Do you think, if you don't tell Your Majesty about such a big thing, who do you have to tell you?" Wu Luzhen glared at me.
"This is the ...... Just report it directly to Chang Kaishen Shoufu...... Well, General Wu, don't stare at me like that, I'm a non-partisan person, and I have nothing to do with the Confederacy. I mean...... Let Chang Kaishen take the blame. I lowered my voice.
Mr. Chang is not popular with traditional military figures. I knew with my eyes closed that Wu Luzhen's heart was inclined towards the emperor rather than the radical cabinet.
"That should also be decided by His Majesty." Wu Luzhen thought for a moment, "Those of us who are courtiers still have to learn to stop in moderation." If we don't do what we shouldn't do, don't do anything wrong. Wu Luzhen shook his head and said.
Wu Luzhen: This is Lao Cheng's serious words. He's right.
But this time I didn't want to come out again. I always feel that if I sign it to the emperor this time, I will definitely not be able to leave a name in history, and it is very likely that it will be left behind for 10,000 years......
Moreover, this year, a border puppet regime in China supported by foreign countries always made me have some bad associations, extremely bad associations.
However, this is not a good opportunity, an opportunity to enter the emperor's field of vision even more.
I'm a little struggling.
In the end, I gritted my teeth and made a decision: "Okay, General Wu, I will listen to you, I will sign your countersign, and we will submit the table to the emperor." β
Well, I can already have a premonition of what words later generations will use when talking about this period of history. Gentlemen, please make up for a certain time and space, and the hot scene in the military history forum will be good.
As for what kind of role I can play in it, Yue Fei or Qin Hui, I'm afraid it depends on the final result.
Well, of course, it would be nice if a cabinet chief assistant named Chang Kaishen could carry all the black pots, anyway, the one that should be carried by him or not by him is estimated to be more than the car in the imperial capital, and it is not worse than one or two.
Not long after Wu Luzhen and I passed the information to the Jingshi side, the emperor's reply came: "I have read it." General Wu and Zhen Xiaozi, please wait patiently, this matter is very important, and I cannot be imprudent. β
Presumably, the emperor has been closely following the situation in the Western Regions these days.
In the next two days, the Ili Group Army rushed to the west one after another. An, and Wu Luzhen's troops merged together, eyeing the Western Regions. At this moment, in terms of the total number of troops and the quality of equipment on the bright side, the Ming Dynasty is already better than the Soviet Union in an all-round way.
Wu Luzhen still served as the commander-in-chief, and Xu Xing became his deputy - well, the emperor still did not dare to really hand over the main army to a young man who was only thirty years old, just look at the time Xu Xing served as the acting commander-in-chief - from beginning to end, he failed to command the Ili Group Army to carry out even a real military operation.
His Majesty the Emperor is wise, and His Majesty the Emperor is mighty! It's a good thing you didn't hand over the army to Xu Xing, otherwise I think the entire Ili Group Army would be finished. Young people, they should learn more from the old general's side, fight hard, and wait for twenty years before taking the helm, after all, the Soviets will not let his opponent go just because he is a nobleman......
The Ili Group Army and the provisional Second Army Corps under Wu Luzhen converged together, and the troops were unprecedentedly strong. There are 1,200 mechs - this is already comparable to the number of mecha in the whole country of the Kalmar Alliance. It seems that it is not impossible to send troops to the Western Regions and recapture Dihua. On the contrary, it is very valuable to try. The Soviet Union should have been exhausted long ago when it went so far into the hinterland of China, right?
"If you can recapture Dihua City with the forces at hand, then there is no need for Lord Zhen's 'curve to save the country' plan to come in handy." At the time of the internal secret meeting, Xu Xing thought so.
But the problem cannot be just scratched at face.
What shackles us is still logistics.
"According to the information I got from General Wu, we only have enough ammunition for three days of high-intensity combat in our combat readiness warehouse." I shrugged my shoulders, "Tens of millions of rounds a day, hundreds of millions of rounds of ammunition, shells are fired, and the ammunition stored for decades is simply not enough." β
I'm talking about another important reason for the tight logistics of Daming - no one could have imagined that under the current technical conditions, the consumption of ammunition is so huge.
"Hundreds of millions of rounds? How is this possible! But Xu Xing was actually still very smart, and in a few blinks he figured out what was going on, "No, if it is calculated according to the fact that a machine gun can shoot five hundred rounds per minute, the consumption of such ammunition is still on the low side, in case the combat intensity is further increased, this amount ......"
In the early days of World War I, the French were also embarrassed, and the initial staff thought that 50,000 shells a day would reach the sky, but as soon as the war began, this number directly increased by hundreds or thousands of times......
"It's also possible to multiply it tenfold." Wu Luzhen behaved indifferently, "Little Grandpa Xu, don't worry too much, we are difficult, and the Soviets on the other side will only be more difficult." After all, it was the first time we had fought a modern war of this magnitude, and the Soviets on the other side were no better. β
