The Japanese base camp had actually prepared for the worst, having already built fortifications in the mountains of China and in the areas of Fushan, Takamatsu, and Aocang.

It has to be said that since the Meiji Restoration, especially after experiencing the Russo-Japanese War and the experience of mobilizing the whole country, the mobilization capacity of the Japanese has far surpassed that of China. It's not that they have mobilized more soldiers than China, but that they have mobilized quickly. It can be said that at the sound of an order, almost all the strong men were unconditionally requisitioned to the front line, with rudimentary weapons, and some even only took wooden sticks and hoes, and those without weapons could be used as reserve troops to temporarily help repair the fortifications.

Yama County Youpeng punched the map hard at the base camp: "We are going to turn this place into a flesh mill, the Verdun of the East." ”

Togo Heihachiro said: "The navy of the empire can be dispatched to provide fire support for the army's naval guns along the coast of the Inland Sea. Moreover, this narrow inland sea will limit the speed and range of action of warships, so that the advanced and high-speed cutting-edge warships of China will lose their advantage, and form a dignified naval artillery battle. It was only under such conditions that the Imperial Navy could achieve victory with excellent training and artillery skills and inflict heavy losses on the Chinese Navy. ”

Youpeng in Shanxian was stunned for a moment and smiled: "Yo Xi." ”

But then Togo Heihachiro said with a heavy expression: "But Your Excellency, the empire's strategic reserves are almost exhausted, and the army doesn't have so many weapons, how can you fight?" ”

Shan County Youpeng smiled cruelly: "There are strong and strong plays, and weak and weak plays." If China wants to continue the offensive, it is necessary to occupy the positions of our troops. What do you say, Dongxiang-kun? ”

Togo Heihachiro said: "Of course, the width of this area is less than 100 kilometers, most of it is mountainous, and such a narrow area can't be bypassed if you want to." However, this does not change the fact that our army lacks weapons, and even if it is too late to order from the Great Powers, should the soldiers fight the Shina with sticks? ”

"That's right!" In Yama County, there is a fierce and hideous authentic, "Wooden sticks are not enough, but the empire has always respected the spirit of bushido, and there are many katanas." Put the Shina people into the position, but they start a white-knuckle battle. As long as we finally hold our ground and take out the Shina soldiers, then we will eventually have more and more weapons, and we will even be able to use a lot of the advanced repeating rifles of the Shangchina. ”

Togo Heihachiro breathed a sigh of relief, unless the Chinese stopped advancing, if they wanted to continue to capture Japanese prefectures and cities, they would have to occupy positions, so that Yamaguchi Aritomo's plan would be completed. If hot weapons are not good, then use the conditions to carry out cold weapon warfare, and he is still very confident in cold weapon local operations.

In order to induce the Chinese army to fight a decisive battle with them in the predetermined position, Japan quickly announced the news to the media, causing a huge sensation in the world media.

"Hey, hey, Verdun of the East? The pattern of Little Japan is simply too small. ”

The news was all in the media, and the Nanjing Provisional Government naturally knew about it. On Li Bufan's base car, Wu's enemy army division began to ridicule again, vigorously commenting on the behavior of little Japan, shaking his head and saying: "The small pattern shows that their strategic vision is limited. Didn't little Japan intend to make this war bigger than Verdun? ”

Li Bufan said lightly: "You want to carry out this decisive battle? ”

Wu Di said excitedly: "Of course, boss. You've fought the Battle of Verdun, are you still afraid of this weakened version of Little Japan? This is to concentrate all the forces of Little Japan, and they are ready to fight this battle desperately, as long as we kill each other in a devastating posture, we will completely destroy the spirit of Little Japan and break their backbone. This will be a landmark battle, a battle for the all-round rise of the Chinese nation, it will be famous through the ages, and it will definitely be a wonderful movie theme for future generations. "Yes, we have to take the opportunity to get some cameras, shoot some classic clips, and then embellish them a little, it is definitely an epic brilliant masterpiece"

Li Bufan said lightly: "That is not the main battlefield of our army. ”

"Huh!" Wu Di was stunned and couldn't help but say hurriedly, "Boss, are you ready to stop?" That's not going to work. Little Japan hasn't gotten down yet, this poisonous snake hasn't been killed and bitten back, so it may be us. Boss, you can't be merciful at this time, you should definitely cut down the grass and eradicate it. ”

Li Bufan had a headache at Wu Di's nagging, so he had to say helplessly: "I didn't say no fighting." It's just that our national strength is really not suitable for such a super-large-scale Armageddon with the Japanese, and our enemy is not only Japan, and the manpower and material resources consumed in the Verdun style campaign are incalculable, and it is difficult for our country to withstand it with its current industrial capacity. Well, even if we barely win the war, then our army will be greatly damaged, if the great powers send troops to intervene at this moment, how will we respond? What to do? ”

Wu Di is a traverser, so naturally he can see through it, the Western powers are not good men and women, they know how to take advantage of the situation. Thinking of this, he also frowned, a little regretful and a little depressed: "Then what should I do?" ”

Li Bufan sneered: "Are you embarrassed to say that you have read thousands of military texts and concentrated the great wisdom and strategy of countless readers?" Don't forget, the strategic initiative is in our hands. ”

"Strategic initiative!?" Wu Di suddenly realized that he was a rich second-generation otaku in his later life, and liking military literature does not mean that he has the level of a military strategist, and even the identity of a military fan has to be put in quotation marks. Understanding the development direction of military armament does not mean that he can become an excellent general.

Li Huashan said lightly: "It is the so-called army and strategy. Since the strategic initiative is in our hands, why should we fight a decisive battle with the Japanese in the preset position? We have the strategic initiative in our hands, and we can fight as much as we want, and we can fight wherever we want. ”

Wu Di said a little depressedly: "What does the boss mean?" ”

Li Bufan sneered: "Frontal feint, put on a posture of a decisive battle with the main force of the Japanese army, and attract the main force of the Japanese army." Then an elite division was dispatched to land in Wakasa Bay behind Kyoto, Japan, under the escort of the navy, and the front of the troops was directed at Kyoto, Japan. Kyoto was the former capital of Japan, and it was the place where the Japanese army must be saved. ”

Wu Di was overjoyed and said: "The boss has a clever plan." Then we surrounded the point to send reinforcements and ambushed the rescuers of Little Japan, the Japanese were bound to panic and waver in the frontal defense line, while we attacked from both sides, completely shattering the illusion of a decisive battle for Little Japan. Hehe, let's turn the Armagedem planned by Little Japan into a sandwich biscuit-style war of annihilation. ”

Li Bufan laughed and said: "You are really dreaming, how easy is it." According to our intelligence, the Japanese Navy no longer dared to fight a decisive battle with us on the ocean, and a large number of old warships were concentrated in the narrow area of the inland sea between its two large islands, ready to provide fire support to the Japanese Army with naval guns. Our navy is at this point, and we can't fight the Japanese navy in this unfavorable terrain, and we can't kill the Japanese navy, so the Japanese army has naval artillery fire support, and it is very difficult to kill them. Our air force is almost running out of bombshells, and there is no way to take out the remnants of the navy of small Japan. For this reason, I decided to set the battlefield in the area around Wakasa Bay, lure the main Japanese forces into the area covered by the naval artillery firepower to fight, and use the powerful naval artillery fire to inflict huge casualties on the Japanese troops and destroy the living forces of Japan. It is said that our navy's artillery hit rate and firing speed are more than a step worse than that of the Japanese navy, and we also took the opportunity to practice. ”

Wu Di couldn't say a word with his mouth open for a while, and said in his heart: "Your sister, isn't this a copy of the Battle of Songhu?" I remember I didn't tell the boss about the Battle of Songhu. Could it be that Lao Tzu's dignified traverser can't play a role? That's too cheap, isn't it? At that moment, his eyes rolled and he said, "Hahaha, the boss is worthy of being the boss, this move is simply a sword to seal the throat." But boss, you see, even so, our consumption is not small, and we all know that it is not allowed to really fight the small Japanese powers. If we want to fight like this, even if we win, the great powers will immediately intervene, and this will not achieve the goal of weakening small Japan as much as possible. ”

Li Bufan was happy and said with a smile: "Then tell me about your clever plan." ”

Wu Di smiled dryly: "Boss, we should give little Japan a boiled frog in warm water." You see that the core forces of little Japan are concentrated on the island of Honshu, I think that we should first take Kyushu and Shikoku and the two islands, and at the same time build a defensive line in the area of Fukuyama and Takamatsu, and send troops to attack Hokkaido, which is weak in defense, and it is completely easy to take it, and we can also take the opportunity to capture the part occupied by the Japanese army on Sakhalin Island, and at the same time attack south from the empty area of the Japanese army in the north of Honshu Island, so that little Japan can not take care of each other and compress the living space of little Japan. ”

Li Bufan smiled and said: "This is also a good way, if you do this, the Japanese are afraid that life will be difficult." ”

Wu Di's eyes widened and said, "Isn't it just sad? I just can't get by. You see, aren't we propping up two sticks? One is called Park Zhengyi, the other is called the Golden Turtle, if these two are placed in the south, they will have to fight for power and profit, let's open them up to the south and the north, so they can only put little Japan to death, and let's give them a 'The one who enters Tokyo first is the king', then we can't beat him up and bleed like a river. Hey, hey, hey" said with a smug chuckle, and the laughter gave goosebumps all over his body.

Li Bufan smiled and said, "It's kind of interesting." However, Hokkaido can't give sticks, it used to be called Ezo country, and it was also one of China's vassal countries, but it was occupied by little Japan early, and the native natives were almost slaughtered, and we had to take it back directly. Anyway, Japan is empty in the northern part of Honshu Island, so we will attack and occupy as much space as possible to provide opportunities for the development of the northern sticks. The North Stick is weaker, but it is closer to Tokyo, so it can also force the South Stick to fight hard. ”

Wu Di smiled dryly: "The boss is the boss, and his shot is extraordinary." Let's ignore the Oriental Verdun, which Little Japan is desperately planning, let's rest and watch the show, they are useless even if they build the Oriental Maginot Line. ”

Li Bufan was surprised: "The Maginot Line of Defense? "I've never heard of that name.

"Hey, boss, it's like this, this Maginot Line"

PS: Someone advised me to write about the Battle of Verdun in the East, but I want to say, if it were you, would you fight this battle? Some people also say that the strategic plan in the novel I wrote is old, but in fact, the plan cannot catch up with the changes in the war, and all the strategic plans have to be constantly revised as the progress progresses. Thank you for your support, and welcome and hope for your comments and guidance.
