Chapter 1269: It's No Problem to Be a Division Commander

Guangzhou, headquarters of the 21st Army.

Lieutenant General Commander Toshikichi Ando had a gloomy expression on his face, originally according to his plan, he planned to hold out for a while, and even thought about relying on the strong fortifications in Guangzhou to bring serious injuries to the Chinese troops, but what Ando Toshikichi never dreamed of was that in just two days, the Chinese troops would attack the city and bring them heavy casualties.

Looking at the map, Ando Rikichi had a complicated look in his eyes, and he fell silent.

Although he began to move into various fortifications with the headquarters as the center, Ando Toshiyoshi was well aware that his troops might not be able to hold on successfully.

"Your Excellency Commander, Your Excellency Lieutenant General Kizaburo Hamamoto, commander of the 104th Division, has sent a telegram that their troops have been attacked and harassed by the Shina troops, and I am afraid that they will not be able to arrive here at the scheduled time for the time being. But they'll get here as soon as possible, but at the latest it's night. ”

Yuki Tsuchihashi, chief of staff of the 21st Army, came to Kizaburo Hamamoto, and he saluted and reported to Kizaburo Hamamoto.

"Yaga? Send them electricity, let them get here at once, and make sure they get here anyway, if they can't get here before noon, I'm afraid our troops won't be able to hold their positions at all. ”

Toshikichi Ando's eyes looked at Yuki Tsuchihashi, his brows furrowed tightly, and he roared loudly and angrily.

Yuki Tsuchihashi kept his head down and was silent, he didn't know how to answer.

After a moment of silence in the headquarters, Ando Rikichi stared at the map, and his tone softened for a while: "Order all departments to prepare for defense, and at the same time order the Second Guards Wing to prepare for a breakthrough, no matter what, we must quickly cover the Second Guards Wing to break out, even if we are all here, but we must also cover the withdrawal of the Second Guards Wing." ”

"Hi, Your Excellency, Commander." Yuki Tsuchihashi saluted Toshikichi Ando, and he said with a serious look on his face.

On the one hand, they ordered the reinforcements of the 104th Division and the Kimura Detachment to quickly reinforce them, and on the other hand, they ordered the 38th Division and the Guards Mixed Brigade to prepare for defense, and the 2nd Guards Wing of the Guards Mixed Brigade was to prepare for a breakthrough, and the Japanese troops in the city were ready to cover the 2nd Guards Wing to break out.

The little devils were making active defensive preparations, while the reinforcements were accelerating towards the city of Guangzhou.

At this time, the six divisions of the 62nd Army, the 63rd Army, and the 65th Army were to contain the Japanese 104th Division and the Kimura Detachment, the New Seventh Army, the Temporary Ninth Army, and the 54th Army were responsible for encircling and annihilating the Japanese troops in Guangzhou, but for the time being, the New Seventh Army needed to encircle and annihilate the more than 1,000 Japanese marines who were besieged.

Outside the city of Guangzhou, the former enemy headquarters of the Fourth Theater of Operations.

Sun Weiguo had already spoken to Yu Hanmou, deputy commander of the Fourth Theater, and Yu Hanmou said that he would try his best to apply to the Military Commission for air force support.

However, after Sun Weiguo sent a telegram to the Military Commission, the Military Commission had already begun to call back directly, and directly replied, saying that they would fully support Sun Weiguo in the war.

Now Sun Weiguo can directly get in touch with the Air Force Command, and the Air Force units can support Sun Weiguo in his operations at any time.

"Commander-in-chief, I have already contacted the Air Force Command, and they said that they will immediately send planes to help in the war, and this time they will also send bombers over."

Ge Haifeng came to Sun Weiguo, and he saluted Sun Weiguo and said.

"Very good, let Liang Zerui's artillery brigade be ready to support, after the air force bombs the Japanese army, immediately shell the Japanese position, and bring me Dai Jitao, commander of the New Seventh Army, and Yin Jinshan, commander of the Provisional Ninth Army, I have a combat mission to hand over to them."

Sun Weiguo looked at Ge Haifeng and said that he directly gave the battle order.

Although the troops of the 54th Army are also the main attacking force, Sun Weiguo of the 54th Army intends to let them serve as reserves, in case the Japanese reinforcements arrive, Sun Weiguo also expects the troops of the 54th Army to quickly reinforce the past and withstand the pressure.

Judging from the current situation, Sun Weiguo can determine that the 62nd Army and other troops may not be able to stop the Japanese reinforcements, and before the arrival of the Japanese reinforcements, the New Seventh Army and other troops may not be able to wipe out the last Japanese troops in Guangzhou, so Sun Weiguo must prepare in advance now.

"By the way, let Wang Pingyuan, the commander of the new 11th Division, come over to see me, I haven't seen him since the reorganization of the new 11th Division."

Ge Haifeng had just left and was about to order the signal soldiers to start generating electricity, when Sun Weiguo immediately shouted.

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief." Ge Haifeng quickly agreed, and the communication soldiers began to generate electricity according to Ge Haifeng's orders.

After Sun Weiguo gave the battle order, he walked out directly, and after coming outside, Sun Weiguo raised his binoculars and looked towards the city of Guangzhou.

"Chief of Staff, what do you ......say" Sun Weiguo said almost subconsciously, but before he finished speaking, Sun Weiguo realized that Zhao Lerong was still in the rear hospital.

"Haifeng, you have been a senior staff member by my side, and then you have been the head of the regiment several times, I thought about it, didn't the chairman approve the number of a security guard? I am going to let you be the commander of this security division, and I will also transfer Li Shaoyan, the deputy commander of the 1st Ranger Brigade, to you as the deputy division commander. ”

Sun Weiguo glanced back, and after seeing that it was Ge Haifeng who came to his side, Sun Weiguo took out a cigarette, put it under his nose and sniffed it.

The First Ranger Brigade is a descendant unit that Sun Weiguo intends to cultivate, Li Shaoyan is a puppet army who took refuge in him, Sun Weiguo trusts him, but he is not suitable for the Ranger Army.

This time, the security division was established, and Sun Weiguo planned to send his Gao Shen Ge Haifeng to the security division as the division commander, and Li Shaoyan as the deputy division commander.

"Commander-in-chief, I still want to learn from your side." Ge Haifeng heard that Sun Weiguo wanted to make him a division commander, and he hurriedly said what he thought.

Sun Weiguo smiled, and he gently patted Ge Haifeng on the shoulder.

"It's enough, there's no problem with being a division commander." Sun Weiguo said with a smile.

After a while, Dai Jitao, commander of the New Seventh Army, and Yin Jinshan, commander of the Provisional Ninth Army, came to the general headquarters.

According to the order issued by the chairman, the new Seventh Army will soon have under the jurisdiction of the Honorary Third Division, the Honorary Seventh Division, the Provisional Fifth Division, and the Provisional Sixth Division, and the Provisional Ninth Army will have under the jurisdiction of the 201st Division, the Honorary Fourth Division, the New 11th Division, and the Security Division.

According to the current establishment, once the 47 th Group Army has eight corps under its jurisdiction, the 47 th Group Army will have nearly 100,000 troops.

And after this operation, even if the chairman of the committee will not admit it, Sun Weiguo will form an artillery division directly under him.
