"The ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties, I didn't expect it to come here again now, but only now does it seem that there is a bit of revival."

Yan Xishan looked through the car window and saw the Lijing Gate in front of him. There was a bitterness in my heart, what a momentum it was when the Jin army attacked the Central Plains and Hebei and included Luo Chu under control. At present, it is less than ten years away from the Central Plains War, and the Jin Sui Army has now been commercialized into the Jin Army, and can only huddle in the mountains of southern Jin to survive, and there is no future in sight.

"It may not be possible to revive it, although the Northwest Army is in full swing at the moment, but it has fought with the Japanese army repeatedly, and the consumption must be not small. This time, Jiang Li personally sat in the Central Plains, and made it clear that he wanted to fight the Japanese army to the end, I am afraid that the central government wanted to delay the army with the Japanese, and now Jiang Li will not agree. Zhou Ying couldn't help but smile in the car.

"You're half right, it's impossible to stop fighting in the northwest now, and the central side doesn't dare to stop, otherwise this person's heart will completely go to the northwest. Generally speaking, Jiang Li's ability to hold up in the Central Plains is also good for us. Otherwise, if we really wait for the Japanese army to free up their hands and then transfer some troops into Shanxi, our life will be a little more difficult. "Yan Xishan is naturally more transparent than Zhou Yu's subordinate. At present, the entire northern war situation is already full of glory and loss, and now that the 18th Group Army is squatting in southern Jinnan, its strength has overwhelmed the Central Army to which Wei Lihuang belongs, and Yan Xishan naturally sees it clearly.

As the car drove over the ancient Lijing Bridge, there were soldiers standing guard everywhere inside and outside the city walls, and in extraordinary times, almost all vehicles and pedestrians entering the city had to be checked. Of course, Yan Xishan's car is an exception.

Soon, someone came over to greet Yan Xishan.

The same scene was also on the side of Li Zongren and Han Fuyu, but after a few people entered Luoyang, Jiang Li did not move for a while, and at this time he temporarily let go of his heart.

I just rested in Luoyang for one night, and the next day at nine o'clock in the morning, the military meeting was held on time.

The address of the meeting was in the former palace city of Luoyang, and at this time, it was only extremely simple to arrange, adding some tables and chairs, except for a large number of soldiers in charge of the sentry post, there were almost no other changes, even since Jiang Li lived here, there were not too many repairs. After all, this is a time of war, and Jiang Li naturally wants to save resources as much as possible by sitting on his side, rather than engaging in those situationalism.

Of course, the real arrangement is far more than that, at least four or five airfields are on standby, and the air defense units stationed in Luoyang are also on alert. The planes of the Japanese army are also terrible guys.

But even so, the grandeur of the Northwest Army made Li Zongren and Han Fuyu, who came to the meeting, stunned for a while, after all, such a military meeting, even if it was the central government, only dared to hold it in Yeyin, to avoid being attacked by the Japanese planes, and to take these high-level figures in one pot. Looking at the entire Republic of China, I am afraid that there is only the northwest with such confidence.

"The Battle of Shijiazhuang ended in failure, captured by the Japanese army, our army withdrew all the way through the torture platform and other places, until Handan stabilized its position, lost a large area of land, a total of 38,621 killed, 315 missing, 61,922 light and seriously wounded. The total number of casualties exceeded 100,000, and the total number of tanks and armored vehicles was 33, 518 vehicles of various types, 173 artillery pieces including anti-aircraft guns, and 69 aircraft. More than 397.16 million rounds of various artillery shells were consumed. More than 5,710,000 rounds of ammunition. More than 40,000 tons of gasoline and diesel fuel are consumed."

"After preliminary statistics, the actual results of our army are as follows: more than 17,320 Japanese soldiers were killed and 327 were captured. Shot down 83 Japanese planes of various types, captured 11 Japanese artillery pieces, destroyed at least 190 Japanese artillery pieces of various types, destroyed 106 Japanese tanks and armored vehicles, and destroyed 151 vehicles"

Hearing the casualty reports on both sides, Li Zongren, Han Fuyu, Yan Xishan and others all took a breath of cold air, Yan Xishan was even better, the battle of Xinkou, the battle of Taiyuan, after all, the casualty ratio was still three to one, and even three or four soldiers were killed in battle before they could be exchanged for a soldier of the Japanese army. The Jin Sui Army only experienced Xinkou and Taiyuan until now, and it is no longer able to organize a frontal battle against the Japanese army, but the main force of the Northwest Army and the Japanese army are fighting all the way down from Pingjin, Baoding, and Shijiazhuang. Even if it is Han Fuyu and Wan Fulin, he can still stand in Handan. And even if it fails, it can still inflict such astonishing casualties on the Japanese army. Yan Xishan was more aware of the Northwest Air Force's retaliation against the nearest Japanese airfields in Shanxi after the Jiyang Massacre, but the Japanese planes did not appear on a large scale over the Jinsui Army for a considerable period of time. Let the Jin Sui army calmly arrange a defensive line in the south of Jin.

When Yan Xishan glanced at Li Zongren and Han Fuyu, Han Fuyu's complexion changed the most. Li Zongren was also surprised. However, this record is indeed shocking. Yan Xishan's heart was a little more relieved, after all, the Jin Sui army was struggling to support in the south of Jin, and it was difficult to get ahead for a while, the stronger the Northwest Army, the more Japanese troops it attracted, even if it was not quite right with the northwest, but Yan Xishan always didn't want the Japanese to win.

It's just that from Jiang Li's eyes that flashed from time to time, Yan Xishan was a little gloating, the protagonist of today's meeting was not destined to be him, and it would be up to Jiang Li to vent for a while, but Yan Xishan didn't expect Jiang Li's reaction to be far beyond his expectations.

"It's kind of unbelievable." Li Zongren said silently in his heart, at first glance, the Northwest Army suffered nearly 100,000 casualties this time, but after removing Shang Zhen, Sun Dianying and other casualties, there were actually not so many. Li Zongren didn't think that the battle record would be injected too much, and judging from the several invalidations, the Northwest Army disdained to use the puppet army to fill in the number. When he came to Luoyang yesterday, he had seen the newspapers that were spread everywhere in Luoyang, and the entire page of the tank wreckage could not be faked, after all, there was no such thing as PS in this era. However, what really shocked Li Zongren was that while the Japanese army paid heavy casualties, the casualty ratio of the Northwest Army was still less than three to one in the case of retreat.

The casualty ratio of planes, tanks, and armored vehicles was even lower than that of the Japanese army, and if the losses were too large, it was the cars and trucks of the Northwest Army. The number of losses is a little too high. In fact, Li Zongren, even the Soviet Union at this time, did not know that thousands of new cars and trucks of all kinds were produced from various automobile factories in the northwest every month. The reason why the Northwest Army was able to achieve such achievements was inseparable from these relatively smooth transportation. (To be continued.) )
