In Zhongnanhai, the sound of metal collision became more and more intense, and the two figures advanced and retreated, and the breathing of the two figures was a little chaotic, the knife in his hand was a few points heavier than before, and the movement under his feet was much slower than at the beginning, and Okamura Ningji on the opposite side was almost the same as him, Okamura Ningji was older, and he could clearly hear his breathing and see the sweat on his forehead. \。

The two knives intersected, making a crisp long sound, Tokunaga struggled to push Okamura Ninji away, took a step back, closed the knife and gave a deep salute to the other party, making a hint of admitting defeat, and Okamura Ninji silently returned the salute.

"The commander's swordsmanship is impressive," Tokunaga was about to say a few good words to comfort Okamura Ningji, but before he could finish speaking, the communication consultant quickly ran in and said, "Tianjin is calling, the 60th Army of the China Army has broken through the East City, the 40th Army of the China Army has broken through the West City, and the North City is fighting fiercely. ”

Deyong's face changed suddenly, he handed the knife to his left hand, and stepped forward to take the telegram from the adviser's hand, he didn't expect that it had only been three hours since the offensive initiative, and the infantry charge had only been forty minutes, and it was actually broken through into the city by the "Medium" team.

Okamura Ninji didn't speak, he handed the knife to the brother next to him, walked to the basin again, picked up a towel and washed his face, Tokunaga looked at it in a hurry, anxious and helpless, looking at Okamura Ninji didn't know what to say, and didn't know what to do.

Tongzhou, Zhuang Jihua had a Q meal, went out from the side door as usual, walked along the Chaobai River, didn't go far, Yu Jishi and Stilwell caught up from behind, Yu Jishi glanced at Wu Ziniu, and then said to Zhuang Jihua: "Wencao, are you really not in a hurry?" ”

"What's the hurry" Zhuang Jihua smiled indispensably, his expression was very leisurely: "Do you not believe in Guangting or do you have itchy hands?" ”

Yu Jishi laughed at himself, among the classmates in the first phase of Huangpu, "Zhuang Jihua has long asserted that the first Du Yuming has a lot of trust in Du Yuming, and after taking Yunnan, he recommended Du Yuming to Chiang Kai-shek to be the commander of Yunnan security, and handed over the military power of a province to him.

Yu Jishi didn't believe Du Yuming, he just felt that when attacking an important and influential city like Tianjin, Zhuang Jihua was not on the front line of command, "This is really rare in China."

"Does the Tang style comply?" Zhuang Jihua changed the subject.

Yu Jishi was stunned for a moment, this is another place where he is puzzled, Tang Shizun is the commander of the 23rd Group Army, Zhuang Jihua plans 1 After the recovery of Tianjin, Tang Shizun is appointed as the commander of the Tianjin garrison, and concurrently serves as the commander of the Tanggu garrison, Chiang Kai-shek, the mayor of Tianjin, is designated as Zhang Tingge, the commander of the 23rd Group Army is taken over by Pan Wenhua, the former commander of the 52nd Group Army, and the commander of the 52nd Group Army is taken over by Zheng Dongguo.

Yu Jishi knew that this adjustment was only the first step in the adjustment of the generals of the whole army, and then the 51st Group Army, the 22nd Group Army, and the 24th Group Army would all be adjusted, and the magnitude was unprecedented, which made him faintly worried and depressed.

"Not yet, I guess I'll be there in the afternoon." Yu Jishi had an indescribable emotion in his heart, the generals of the 11th Army actually accepted the adjustment obediently, and Tang Shizun handed over the army to Pan Wenhua without the slightest complaint, "He left the army with people, Pan Wenhua also handed over the army without saying a word, and Zheng Dongguo successfully took over the 52nd Group Army.

Stilwell has not been idle at the headquarters for the past few days," he inspected the military strength of the entire North China Theater, and he was a little worried about the situation on the front line at Shanhaiguan.

At present, there are the First Group Army and the Fifth Group Army on the Shanhaiguan front, and the total strength of the newly organized Heart Army is about 230,000; although this does not include the 52nd Group Army, the 23rd Group Army, and the 49th Group Army on both sides of the Great Wall, these armies are nearly a week away from the Shanhaiguan front, and once the Japanese army instigates an offensive at Shanhaiguan, the First Group Army and the Fifth Group Army on the front are likely to fall into a situation of fighting alone.

"Zhuang, is the military strength on the Shanhaiguan front a little weak, and the 52nd Group Army should be allowed to send at least one army south to strengthen the frontal force."

Before Yu Jishi's problem was solved, Stilwell immediately put forward his own suggestion, Zhuang Jihua smiled very firmly, walked forward slowly, and said as he walked: "General Stilwell, we can get all the battle plans of Okabe Naosaburo, he has no attack plan in the near future, he is digging trenches at Shanhaiguan." ”

Stilwell was speechless, and Zhuang Jihua continued: "Actually, Okabe Naosaburo's army in front of Shanhaiguan is only three divisions, more than 50,000 people, another 100,000 in Jinzhou, 150,000 in northern Liaoning, 50,000 between Jinzhou and Shenyang, and Jilin and Heilongjiang are almost empty.

Take off. Two armies were sent into the northeast, Yang Chengwu led an army to Jilin, and Zeng Kelin led about 3,000 people to operate on the Sino-Korean border. ”

Zhuang Jihua stopped when he said this, turned to look at Stilwell and said solemnly: "What we have to do now is to seize the time to reorganize the army, my plan is to plan an attack in the northeast after the summer grain harvest, but you also know that our biggest difficulty is logistics, the battle of Tianjin has consumed the ammunition we have accumulated in this month and a half, to attack Beiping, we have to consume half a month's ammunition, to attack the northeast, we must accumulate more ammunition, but we don't, which is likely to delay our offensive time." ”

Stilwell was not able to agree that Zhuang Jihua's view was correct, the North China Theater was extremely short of ammunition, and almost all the ammunition was now sent to the front line in Tianjin, and the ammunition depots in eastern Hebei were almost empty, only the ammunition carried by the army, and the artillery shells were less than a base number, and there were not enough bullets, and the First Army had only 16 bullets per soldier on average, but this was not a good example.

In addition to the reorganization of the Northeast Army in the Tongzhou area, the 49th Group Army was still reorganizing the Puppet Gate G Army and the Manchurian Defense Army in Rehe, and the 49th Group Army added a cavalry division, which was all composed of the Puppet Gate Army and the cavalry of the Manchurian Defense Army: The 23rd Group Army was also reorganizing the army, and they were reorganizing the Puppet Rehe Security Regiment, and all these security regiments were dismantled and incorporated into the army.

"I will propose to the Joint Conference of Chiefs of Advisers that the materials allocated to the [China" theater be increased to 120,000 tons." Stilwell said solemnly.

Zhuang Jihua frowned slightly, he thought for a while and asked, "General Stilwell, do you think, can the US aid materials go ashore in Qingdao?" As you know, there are tens of thousands of kilometers from Yangon to Shanhaiguan, and if you can go ashore in Qingdao, you can greatly speed up the accumulation of materials. ”

Stilwell immediately went ashore in Qingdao, if he could go ashore, but if he could go to Qingdao, he would have to cross the absolute defense circle of Japan, even if he recovered the Marshall Islands and occupied Saipan, he could not do so, and he had to occupy Okinawa, so as to open the passage to the coast of China.

Attacking from the Central Pacific is the Navy's line of attack, and given the relationship between the Army and the Navy, Stilwell does not know when the Navy will be able to launch an attack on the Mariana Islands, but judging from this route alone, there will be several bitter battles. The Chinese have recovered several outlets to the sea, but the Allies are thousands of miles away, and these ports are almost useless.

"If you want to attack Japan, you must first destroy the Japan Combined Fleet, as long as you destroy the Japan Fleet, the island can be attacked or not, let the Japan itself stay there, and we will directly attack Tokyo, so that the casualties will be smaller."

Zhuang Jihua's tone seemed to be joking, but Stilwell didn't see it as a joke, he thought about it very seriously, and felt that although Zhuang Jihua's idea was good, it was very difficult to realize.

"Zhuang, this issue involves the navy," Stilwell said thoughtfully, and he did not directly refuse: "I will suggest to the Joint Council of Advisers that the passage to the ports of China be opened as soon as possible." ”

"Zhuang, Merrill, when are they going to untie the cable?"

Zhuang Jihua stopped and lowered his head to think about it, then looked up at Chaobai River, sighed and said, "It's almost there." ”

From the bottom of his heart, Zhuang Jihua didn't want them to move, this task was too dangerous, Song Yunfei and they completely entered behind the enemy, there were enemies on all sides, there was no base area, the wounded had nowhere to stay, I don't know how many people would die in this battle.

Zhuang Jihua looked at the Chaobai River, but Yu Jishi and Stilwell were mistaken, thinking that he was looking at the east and thinking about Tianjin, how Du Yuming's progress was.

"The front-line command said that it had broken through the city walls and was growing into the city."

As soon as Zhuang Jihua and the others returned to the headquarters, they immediately received a report from the adviser that Yu Jishi and Stilwell were immediately overjoyed, and the infantry had completely broken through the city wall in less than an hour, which was completely unexpected by them.

Tianjin, in the basement of the public hall, in the headquarters, the telephone wind is inexhaustible, and the front line is inexhaustible, and the consultants hurriedly mark the latest changes on the sand table.

On the sand table, the small flags representing the Japanese army retreated inexhaustibly, almost every 20 minutes they had to give way to a street, and rushed into the city from both sides of the tools, the attack was extremely fierce, they seemed to be unable to wait for the tanks outside the city, and after entering the city, they rushed straight into the depth.

Yokoyama's face was as dead as ashes, and soon after the squadron began to attack, he found that he had been fooled, and the main force of the squadron was the purpose of the tool target, not the north side as he judged.

But now it is found that it is too late, and the squadron has already rushed into the city, and hastily adjusted the decorations, which must have caused chaos on the front and led to an even greater disintegration.

, "Commander, humble position. From the moment he found out that he had been fooled, Qing 11's face had turned pale, and now he has recovered a little.

"It's not your fault, it's my fault, my fault." There was a hint of frustration in Yokoyama's tone, but there was also a hint of stubbornness, his eyes kept rolling on the map, thinking about drawing troops from there to fight back, he didn't want to use reserves now, he didn't have many reserves, and he would never use them until the most critical time.

Outside the guild hall, inside the city of Tianjin, the smoke of gunpowder filled the city, the sound of gunfire was fierce, fires, explosions rose in all corners of the city, this important town in North China, is bathed in the flames of new life, suffering the pain before the nest of Nirvana. @
