112, Songshan Fortress (below)
The sound of the violent explosion of "boom" was earth-shattering, and the continuous fortress defense line collapsed in an instant in the ferocious explosion, and a large number of underground fortifications collapsed, as if there was a tendency for the sky to collapse and the earth cracked, and the billowing smoke and flying dust raised were clearly visible dozens of miles away.
The Songshan Fortress, which Japan frantically gathered manpower and material resources to build, and this Songshan Fortress, which claimed to want the Chinese National Defense Forces to shed millions of blood, became history in such an instant, in fact, it did not consume even a drop of Chinese blood.
The Nanjing government in China only said lightly -- we will not withdraw our troops until we blow them up. The Japanese were forced by reality to destroy the fortress they had worked so hard to build, consuming their own explosives, and the whole incident felt like the Japanese were making a mistake, spending so much manpower and material resources to build it, and putting so much explosives to blow it up.
Countless Japanese soldiers and civilians who participated in the construction of the fortress defense line wept bitterly, and the huge humiliation made many officers and soldiers red-eyed.
Many Japanese people can't understand why Japan's Meiji Restoration has been developing frantically for so many years, and it has also taken advantage of the world war to make a war windfall, and its strength is extremely powerful. But why can China, which has lagged behind for a short period of time, suddenly turn the tables and easily defeat them from behind, and oppress them in turn?
More Japanese people can't understand that even if they fail to fight in China and on the mainland, they should have the advantage of fighting at home, but why are they still controlled everywhere, and before their strength can be brought into play, they are blinded by the Chinese and have to surrender in defeat? Look at the Sino-Japanese War, there is no decent Armageddon at all, why did it fail?
"It's finally getting started!"
Seishiro Itagaki and Ishihara looked at each other, Japan succumbed to the pressure of the Chinese side and destroyed the fortress defense line, then the Chinese side will also be under international supervision, and soon withdraw the remaining troops from Japan, then the battle between Japan and the Koreans will follow.
Ishihara said in a deep voice: "Itagaki-kun, we have put five giant cannons on the front line of Takamatsu, two of which are 410 caliber cannons. ”
Itagaki Seishiro said: "Very good, there are huge cannons, we can easily tear through the defense line on the opposite side and crush those North Koreans." He was very confident in this, as long as the North Koreans did not have strong fortifications to rely on, they seemed to him to be a herd of sheep to be slaughtered.
In this regard, Ishihara was also full of confidence that as long as the main force of the Korean army on the opposite side was defeated, then they would be able to completely destroy the lost territory, because Japan still had a navy, and it could easily land at any point in the event of a counteroffensive to outflank the enemy.
Of course, the most important thing is that Japan cannot afford to lose and cannot be defeated.
Just on the opposite side of the Songshan Fortress, Li Songshan, Zhang Xiaozhun, Zhang Zuolin, Guo Songling and other senior Chinese officers also witnessed this once-in-a-century shocking explosion, and they were accompanied by a group of North Korean officers, led by Park Zhengyi, behind whom were a number of North Korean officers with dead faces.
"I don't see that the Japanese are quite decisive." Zhang Xiaozhun couldn't help but sigh.
Guo Songling sneered: "They are recognizing reality. ”
Li Songshan said to Park Zhengyi: "General Park, the Japanese have destroyed Songshan Fortress, as for whether you Koreans can gain a foothold here, it is up to you." ”
Park Zhengyi nodded and said, "Please rest assured, General, we will go all out." After a slight hesitation, he continued, "It's just that it is said that the Japanese have placed huge artillery on the front line, which is a very huge threat to us, and they also have a fleet, once the Celestial Empire army leaves, they will be equivalent to controlling the sea dominance." ”
Li Songshan said lightly: "Don't worry, we won't let you go to death." By bringing you to Japan, we have expected this situation for a long time, and the Great Powers will not let us eradicate the scourge of Japan with our own hands. Since you are allowed to solve this trouble, it will naturally give you the certainty of victory. ”
Park Zhengyi was overjoyed and said: "Yes, yes, the general said so, and the villain was relieved." The smile on his face was like a chrysanthemum, and he nodded his head like a pug pleasing to his master
On the base car behind the Nanjing Ministry of National Defense, Li Bufan and Wu Di leaned on the reclining chair of the base car and looked at the screen.
The map on the screen shows that in southwest China, including Tibet and most of the Indochina Peninsula, the red lines and red dotted lines marked on the map are the repaired highways and the unfinished highway lines, and the railway lines on them are also divided into virtual and real signs. There is no doubt that the war in Southeast Asia is the strategic core of the Ministry of National Defense, and this has a bearing on China's hegemony in the Far East and East Asia, and it can be said that all kinds of strategic plans have been refined countless times.
Wu Di pointed to the western part of the map and said: "The highway to Qamdo is estimated to be completed by the end of June, and the reason why it is so slow is because of the plateau operation, and the officers and men of the ordinary production and construction corps cannot adapt to it, so they can only recruit workers in the plateau area as much as possible, and the climate is harsh, and the construction cannot be started for several months every year." ”
Li Bufan nodded and said: "Although the British have withdrawn from Tibet, the Tibetan ** forces still exist, and we need to try our best to solve this hidden danger, lest when we go south, the British and these rebels collude to raid Sichuan and cause trouble." July to October is the best time to enter Tibet, and the road to Qamdo can reduce the logistical pressure to the greatest extent, and it is necessary to strive for the complete eradication of the rebel forces within three months. ”
Wu Di nodded, of course he hated these miscellaneous things, if it weren't for these **, East Turkistan and other miscellaneous things in the future, China would at least develop faster for several years. Pointing to the map, he said, "Boss, look at the whole map." The biggest problem why Tibet has been semi-independent of the state system since ancient times is transportation. You see, it took us more than two years to build the road to Qamdo, and the road is even more difficult. In the later republics, there was a war between India and India, and a few of our divisions beat India's hundreds of thousands of troops like dogs, and one of the troops almost hit their capital, but the problem was that the supplies were out of supply and could not be delivered. At that time, India was an airplane, a tank, and an artillery, what about us? Heavy weapons are mortars and machine guns. ”
Li Bufan was taken aback and said, "So powerful? This made him feel incredible, if the Wehrmacht was so fierce, he would have launched a war in Southeast Asia a long time ago, so why wait?
Wu Di smiled bitterly: "What can you do?" When I hit the back, I ran out of ammunition, and my weapons were all burned sticks. had to retreat because the transportation logistics and supplies could not keep up. It is said that later a regiment did not withdraw, but fought with the Indian monkeys with bayonets, and was injured and could not fight, so in order not to lose the face of the motherland, he would rather die than be a prisoner and commit suicide by jumping into the river. Later, the top government officials learned the hard way to build roads and railways into Tibet, and the construction of these roads alone cost tens of thousands of heroic martyrs, and in order to maintain the garrison in Tibet, some people sacrificed their lives on this road every year because of various risks. ”
Li Bufan was extremely shocked in his heart, and muttered, "It's amazing." ”
Wu Di nodded and said, "It's really remarkable." However, the restrictions at that time also left some sequelae, and some Chinese people did not know the inside story and criticized the government for this, and they did not know what to say. I don't think we should let that happen again, you see, if we build a railway from the southwest to Myitkyina, and then to Dibrugarh, and from here to Lhasa, it's much less risky. Besides, if we had a heavy presence in the area around Dibrugar, it would be enough to deter South Asia. ”
Li Bufan looked at the map carefully, nodded and said, "That makes sense." In any case, then the war in Southeast Asia, the Assam region, we are going to decide. ”
Wu Di secretly smiled proudly, although he, the golden finger of the traverser, was deprived by Li Bufan, but he was still able to guide Li Bufan step by step towards the blueprint of the ambitious hegemony he planned. This has to be said to be a sense of achievement, I can't be the No. 1 pig's foot, and I can barely be regarded as the No. 2 pig's foot.
Wu Di said with a smile: "The counterinsurgency on the Mongolian side is basically over, and our army has taken control of the trading city. Now it's up to Little Japan, I heard that they destroyed Matsuyama Fortress today, calculate the time, there should be news about it? ”
"The news is coming." Li Hengshan came in with a smile, holding a telegram in his hand, and saluted Li Bufan, "Commander-in-chief, the Japanese really blew up the Songshan Fortress. However, according to our intelligence, the Japanese prepared huge artillery and prepared to defeat the Koreans in one fell swoop after the withdrawal of our troops, and then the navy made a landing operation to control the whole territory as quickly as possible. ”
Wu Di sneered: "Little Japan wants to be beautiful. We will let him know that fantasy is beautiful, but reality is cruel. ”
Li Bufan frowned and said: "If there is really a huge cannon, I am afraid that the defense line we leave to the North Koreans may not be able to stop it." ”
Wu Di laughed and said, "Boss, you don't know this, right?" During World War II, there was a bill called the Lend-Lease Act, which was to lend weapons to other countries, and we can do the same. ”
Li Bufan was surprised: "What do you mean? ”
Wu Di shrugged and said, "Won't we get a few hundred planes for the North Koreans in the concession?" At the first moment of the war, we directly destroyed the giant artillery and artillery groups of Little Japan, and even sent the remaining naval fleet of Little Japan's defenseless to the bottom of the sea to feed Wang Ba, and then we could watch the show with peace of mind. ”
Li Bufan said in disbelief: "How can there be such a shameless bill?" Who invented it? ”
Wu Di shrugged his shoulders and said, "Americans." During World War II, the Americans came up with this solution when they saw that the allies were about to be overwhelmed, but they didn't want to get involved in the war too early, and at the same time wanted to make further war windfalls. In World War II, if it weren't for the loans from the United States and the sale of materials in violation of international conventions, little Japan would have been unable to fight for a long time. The Battle of Songhu may be able to be fought, but the Battle of Wuhan and Little Japan definitely do not have the strength to fight. China will fight so badly in World War II, and the United States will at least bear general responsibility. Later, they themselves were blown up by Little Japan, so they pulled us China to do it together, and their purpose was not to use our manpower and material resources to consume and contain Little Japan. They do the first year of junior high school, and we do the fifteenth. ”
"My politician who is a foreign devil is so heartbroken"
"So, we have to be more despicable and shameless than them to deal with these scumbags"
"PS: After analyzing some macro events in World War II, I also hope that everyone will be soberly aware of the situation back then. The book has seldom written about the details of the war before this, but it is only intended to illustrate a truth. Political maneuvering can sometimes achieve more goals than war, and at a lower cost. Just like the situation in the Diaoyu Islands, people with a discerning eye have already seen that China has basically grasped the initiative, everyone understands.
