Chapter 828: One More Fight
In the Xuzhou City Theater Headquarters, Chief Li and Chief Bai are already celebrating the victory of the Battle of Taierzhuang, this battle can play such an effect, it is indeed something they could not have expected before, originally they thought that this time to be able to surround this devil division is already quite good, and they have also thought about eliminating some devils, with the current Chinese army compared with the devil's combat effectiveness, it can be called a great victory to annihilate a devil wing, and they never thought that they would encircle and annihilate a devil's A division, But the fact is that now this Isogu division has been completely annihilated, the enemy chief has been captured alive, and all the devils under him have been killed or captured, and the battlefield statistics have just been reported, except for the devil brigade stationed in Teng County, the number of devil corpses found on the battlefield in Taierzhuang plus the number of captured devil wounded soldiers and prisoners is exactly the total number of Isogu divisions, so that the Isogu division has been completely annihilated, but the devil's military flag has not been found, it is estimated that the little devil was before it was destroyed, Burned the flag that the devil emperor gave them, right?
With such a brilliant victory, Commander Li and Commander Bai's confidence in the battle situation in Xuzhou suddenly increased, and they were very optimistic that as long as they worked harder, they could encircle and eliminate the nearby Itagaki Division. At present, the number of the main force of the Chinese army in the Xuzhou area has reached more than 300,000, and it is completely possible to encircle the Itagaki Division.
When the news of Taierzhuang's victory spread, the whole country was boiling, from the high-ranking officials and nobles, down to the peddlers and pawns, they all raised their eyebrows and rushed to tell each other, this victory came too timely, swept away the haze of being beaten by the Japanese devils before, and also swept away some of the pessimistic atmosphere since the Nanjing Massacre.
Han Fei has different opinions on the idea that Sir Li and they should make persistent efforts to continue to gather heavy troops near Xuzhou to surround other devil divisions, he thinks that this time Taierzhuang victory we fought the Isogu division is a lone army in depth, there is no cover of other devil main forces on both sides, and we will surround and annihilate them with the advancing enemy, and we still have to use several times the absolute superiority of troops to deal with them, which shows that the combat effectiveness of the devil division is not weak, this big victory is completely exceptional, we can't get Longwangshu, If you seek a decisive battle with the devil's heavy army division here in Xuzhou, the devil commander who has suffered this big loss will definitely not be stupid enough to follow in the footsteps of the devils in Isogu, or take advantage of this favorable opportunity to withdraw the main force and move in the direction of Wuhan, and it is more prudent to defend Wuhan.
Chief Li was very surprised by Han Fei's idea, he didn't understand why Han Fei was so pessimistic, didn't our Chinese army fight very well in Taierzhuang? The devil division known as the "Steel Army" has been annihilated by us, can't we take advantage of this time when morale is high to make persistent efforts and go to the next city? He felt that Han Fei's courage was not big enough, after all, he had no practical experience in commanding a large corps of soldiers, and he was still a little lacking in this regard.
But Chief Bai seemed to be interested in Han Fei's opinion, and asked him sideways, "Tell me what your reason is?" ”
"The reason is very simple, the current battle situation is relatively strong, the enemy is still strong and I am weak, the devil troops are far superior to our Chinese army in terms of weapons and equipment and training, especially they also have air supremacy and sea supremacy, our soldiers in the front line and the devil bloody battle when the most casualty ratio is caused by the devil plane bombing, right? These are some things that the two chiefs should know, right? Han Fei asked Chief Bai rhetorically.
"This is right, it is like this, especially on the Songhu battlefield, there is a division of troops that has eighty percent of the casualties caused by the bombing of devil planes, it can be seen that in such a situation of disparity in strength, the positional battle with the Japanese invaders is a bit of a crown and Li Dai, it is too inappropriate, Brother Han, I am not here to say that there is anything wrong with your old commander Chief Chen, we all know that he also has to do it as a last resort, in fact, the decision is made by the old man above, Chief Chen is in the same situation as the two of us, and it is good to win the battle, If we lose, we will definitely be responsible. "Chief Bai knows Han Fei's situation better, and knows what is the fundamental reason why Chief Chen is in such a situation now?
"This time we won a big victory in Taierzhuang, the brothers were united, and the devils fought bloodily and finally surrounded the Isogu Division, but we also paid a lot of casualties, some troops were wiped out by the whole battalion and the whole regiment, and the position was still captured by the devils, especially the brothers of the Northwest Army, the casualties were even heavier, this time we won, relying on the tenacious unity of the brothers, and a major factor is the arrogance and lone advance of the Isogu devils, if there is a devil division on each side of him, I estimate that we can block the devils this time It is good, not to mention thinking about encircling the entire Annihilation of the Rock Valley Division, based on the calculation of 20,000 people in one devil division, to surround three devil divisions, we have to use the main force of 300,000 to deal with it, which is simply impossible at present. Han Fei continued to say the reason, and Chief Bai kept nodding, and it could be seen that he already somewhat agreed with Han Fei's opinion.
"Brother Han, you're right, the current situation is that the enemy is strong and I am weak, but we also have advantages that devils don't have, just like your special combat team, it's not one enemy and ten devils to deal with devils, I mean, can you expand your special combat team mode in a short period of time, so that you can greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the theater troops, wouldn't it be more sure to fight devils?" Chief Li was still immersed in the joy of the great victory, but he didn't know that a more deadly danger was quietly approaching at this moment, Han Fei, as a person who had crossed over from the afterlife, of course knew what kind of retaliatory action the devils would take after the battle of Taierzhuang, and the devils who had suffered losses would definitely not come forward like the devils in Isogu, unless their commander was a fool! And the reason why the combat effectiveness of one's own special combat team is stronger than that of ordinary units is not that it can be improved entirely by training, but is improved in the course of continuous actual combat with devils, and the reason why the special combat team is called a special combat team is because the combat mode of the special combat team is different from that of ordinary infantry that it shows its strength.
"Big brother, what Brother Han said has a certain point, we might as well consider his opinion, why don't we send a telegram to the old man in Wuhan first to see what he means? Those who are not in a hurry to make a decision. Chief Bai said a key word at this time.
