"But" Ji Feixiang's big eyes flashed, and she asked hesitantly! "He Luo is very shrewd in war, and he is the first to see through Gu himself's trap in Burma. Whole\Ben\Small\Say\Net"

"So what I said is maybe" Zhuang Jihua smiled slightly and then restrained his smile, and said thoughtfully: "Yes, Anan has a good time to choose, and in a few months, I will go to him if he doesn't come." ”

"You don't mean to agree with the chief's opinion." There was a hint of worship in Ji Feixiang's tone

"I can't see it clearly" Zhuang Jihua shook his head, his eyes looked out of the door a little confused, as if he was saying to the two of them, and seemed to be talking to himself: "The logistics supply of the Japanese is already too tight, and it is difficult to get together war materials in a short time, maybe in two months, it is more likely." ”

Ji Feixiang looked at Zhuang Jihua and understood in her heart that Zhuang Jihua was now in a state of suffering from gains and losses, and the movement of the Japanese army had alarmed him, but he was not sure whether the Japanese were going to attack, he hoped that the Japanese would attack in a few months, so that he would be more prepared.

"You've finally made a mistake." Ji Zhixiang breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, in the past few years by Zhuang Jihua's side, she has witnessed him defeat the Japanese army again and again, but she has no choice, she can't help it, with her efforts, to defeat this seemingly invincible Zhina.

"Commander, I don't know much about arranging troops" Ji Feixiang carefully verified her judgment: "However, the current battle is indeed not very favorable, it is said that the drought in Henan has a tendency to spread further, although we ordered relief in western Henan, but there are still many victims." In a short time, we could not concentrate our forces on combat. ”

The great drought in Henan broke out in the summer and autumn of last year, and the concubines were concentrated in the Japanese-occupied areas of central and eastern Henan, and later spread to western Henan, and groups of victims fled to western Henan, Shaanxi, Shandong, Anhui, and Hubei, and there were victims from Henan in the entire five war zones.

In order to relieve these victims, Zhuang Jihua ordered to open a warehouse in the Fifth War Zone for relief, distributed military grain to the victims, and ordered to change the three meals a day to two meals, and save two taels of grain per person per day, and three taels per person per day for officers and party members. At the same time, the construction of roads and airports and the renovation of water conservancy facilities were carried out on a large scale in the Fifth Theater. Change the simple relief to the cash-for-work. With the local party departments and national salvation committees as the mainstay, all forces were mobilized to carry out disaster relief and relief.

But these efforts temporarily allowed the victims to survive the winter, but with the help of a war zone to help the whole of Henan, Zhuang Jihua also felt difficult. For this reason, he sent a telegram to Chongqing, accusing Wei Lihuang of the First War Zone of turning a blind eye to the hungry people and sitting idly by while the victims of the disaster in Henan Province tossed and turned around the ravines, and demanded that the central authorities immediately and urgently send large quantities of grain to the Fifth War Zone and the First War Zone.

Chiang Kai-shek received a telegram from Zhuang Jihua. At this time. A series of reports on the disaster in Henan by New York Times reporter Forman and Time magazine reporter Bai Xiude were published in Chongqing and the United States, and public opinion was in an uproar.

The fact that Henan was able to reduce or exempt military rations was also because of the success of the material control in the three southwestern provinces, which gave Chiang Kai-shek the confidence to provide relief to the drought in Henan, and this move also made Chiang Kai-shek secretly frightened, and also made him determined to carry out comprehensive material control in the Kuomintang region, and Guangdong, Guangxi, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangsu, and Shaanxi comprehensively implemented material control, which was supervised and implemented by the commanders of the various theaters.

However, the early situation in Henan did not improve in the slightest, and in order to save the drought, Dali had to renovate the water conservancy, but the Japanese occupation forces were not interested in this, and the Japanese army, which was more strained in supplies than in the previous life, was not in the mood to buy the people's hearts, so they simply let the victims out of the province and let them flee to the nationalized areas. In order to increase the burden on the Chinese government, the population of the Japanese-occupied areas fell sharply.

Since the beginning of spring, there has been very little precipitation in western Henan and northern Hubei provinces, but the water conservancy facilities that were urgently repaired last winter have played a role, and the disaster situation in the Fifth War Zone has a tendency to slow down, but there are still many victims from the Japanese-occupied areas.

"yes, God is looking for us too." Zhuang Jihua was very worried, he still only had seven taels of grain a day, and the military grain reserves of the entire Fifth War Zone were only 100,000 catties, and you must know that the army in the Fifth War Zone was as much as 500,000, and this grain must be guaranteed, he sighed and said: "It's best not to fight." If Anan Weiji must fight, then he can only be accompanied. ”

Ji Feixiang's expression was a little worried, but Lin Yueying was calmer, and Zhuang Jihua frowned slightly: "What?" You don't have faith? ”

"Of course there is" Lin Yueying smiled: "You haven't lost a battle yet, since you have already thought of it, there must be a way to deal with it." ”

"Well, there is a way, but there are some risks." After Zhuang Jihua finished speaking, he picked up the document on the table and handed it to the two of them: "I have already marked the place to be modified, and you can revise it again." Give it to me again in the evening. Lin Yueying and Ji Feixiang took it, and Zhuang Jihua reviewed the draft of the speech drafted by the two of them in detail, and made annotations in the places that needed to be revised, and the annotations in two places were still very long. Concubine Ji made a grimace at Lin Yueying, Lin Yueying also smiled, and the two turned around and went out together. After they left, Zhuang Jihua breathed a sigh of relief, he called Gong Xiuhua and asked her to keep an eye on Concubine Ji.

Chief of Staff Xu Zuyi and Staff Officer Zuo Jinti were only waiting in the war room, and Deputy Chief of Staff Gong Chu was ordered to screen the cadre school and was not in the headquarters for the time being.

"Okay, where is the long, you first tell me what you think." Zhuang Jihua did not sit down on the main seat, but stood in front of the sand table, and did not talk nonsense, and entered the topic directly.

"The situation is already clear to everyone" He Wei did not repeat the introduction of the enemy situation, but picked up the command baton and pointed to the sand table: "The Japanese army has assembled in Wuhan in large numbers. There must be only one purpose, to attack. In order to defeat the Japanese offensive, I suggested that the Fifth Army be transferred south and assembled south of Dahongshan, while the other 59th Army would stop reorganizing and return to the front line, and the 36th Army or the 22nd Army would immediately move south and spread out on the right flank of Dahongshan. ”

"Chief of Staff Xu, what is your opinion?" Zhuang Jihua looked up and asked Xu Zuyi according to the script.

"It is not certain that the Japanese army will launch an attack, besides, the Fifth Army is a mechanized army, and the Dahongshan area is a mountainous area, and it is difficult for mechanized troops to carry out, so I think the 36th Group Army can be transferred to the south, and the 59th Army has not yet been reorganized, so it should continue to be reorganized."

"What about you?" Zhuang Jihua's gaze swept over Deputy Director Sun Xiao, "and the staff officers."

"I agree with Chief of Staff Xu." Sun Xiao replied, and the staff officers also expressed their positions one after another, either supporting Xu Zuyi or supporting He Wei.

There was only a black-faced staff officer, and when Zhuang Jihua's eyes looked at him, he replied without hesitation: "I believe that the Japanese attack is imminent, and the troops should be mobilized immediately. The forward forces should be immediately contracted, and the entire army of the 49th Group Army should be assembled in the Dahongshan area, "The 77th Army and the 60th Army were assembled on the right flank of Dahongshan, and the northern front, and the 36th Group Army and the 22nd Group Army were all moving south and assembling north of Dahongshan. ”

"Then there is only one Second Army left on the Northern Front, and the Forty and Sixty-eighth Armies of the Second Army are also being reorganized, and only one Fifty-fifth Army remains." Zhuang Jihua asked quietly, with a look of appreciation in his eyes.

"The Fifth Army can advance eastward, and besides, the Forty Army has not changed much, and it is completely feasible to fight a defensive war." Blackface staff officer said.

"Your name is Shangguan Jun."

"Yes, lowly post, go to Anjun, shoot staff officers in the combat class." Shangguan Jun replied loudly.

"How many years have you been in the army? Have you ever been in a war? Zhuang Jihua asked again.

"Report to the commander, he graduated from the 12th Infantry Section of the Central Military Academy, participated in the Second Jinpu Road Campaign, the Battle of Wuhan, and served in the First and Third Theaters." Shangguan Jun's answer was simple.

"No wonder" Zhuang Jihua nodded: "No wonder you are the upper shot, your style of play is to fight hard with the Japanese army, just now Chief of Staff Xu said that the Fifth Army is a mechanized army, mountain combat is a short attack and a long one, and there are many rivers in the Xinyang area, which is also not suitable for mechanized combat?" ”

Shangguan Junyan walked over and flashed unevenness, but he still replied immediately: "The Xinyang area is mainly a hilly area, although there are many rivers, but Henan is in a great drought, the river water is low and shallow, and the sappers can quickly build bridges, and the many rivers are not an obstacle." ”

"Well, you have a point," Zhuang Jihua thought about and said: "However, the two group armies going south can only form a mutual attrition with the Japanese army in the end, and it is the enemy who takes the initiative and we passively meet the battle." ”

Speaking of this, he looked up at the officers gathered around: "The current situation in the war zone, I think you should be very clear, the four youth divisions, the new 17th Army, the 59th Army, and the 68th Army, are all being reorganized, and all departments are also retraining, and more importantly, the drought in Henan, there are a large number of victims in the war zone, we are making every effort to provide disaster relief, all kinds of materials are inclined to disaster relief, we must wait until the summer, we can breathe a sigh of relief." So if you can't fight now, it's better not to fight. ”

"But, Commander." He Wei rushed in front of Shangguan Jun and said: "It's not a question of whether we want to fight or not, Anan Weiji must also know our difficulties, and it is precisely for these reasons that he chose to launch an attack at this time." ”

"It's not that I've already chosen" Zhuang Jihua shook his head and said: "It's about preparation, we also know the difficulties of the Japanese army, Anan is a restless guy, so even if he wants to attack, let him attack according to our ideas and attack on the battlefield we have chosen." ”

He walked to Shangguan Jun's side: "You are right, early in the morning in Henan, the river in Xinyang is not so difficult." Looking at Xinyang again, it is the southern gate of Henan, and conquering Xinyang can cut off the Pinghan line and cut off the connection between North China and Central China of the Japanese army, so as long as we make a posture of attacking Xinyang, Anan Weiji will not be able to sit idly by. ”

"Therefore, my plan is not to increase troops on the southern front, but to make a move on the northern front, attract Anan Wei's main forces to the north, and lure him to attack in Xinyang, not Hunan."

Zhuang Jihua walked in front of He Wei, stretched out his hand to take the command pole, and pointed to the sand table. Happy New Year!!!!

Good luck!!!!
