Chapter 194: Arrange the troops
After Koiso Kuni Showaji Shouichi talked all night, countless military orders began to be issued. The Japanese army in all parts of China began to reorganize and transport supplies, and the three divisions and regiments that fought to the death with the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi also began to stop the pace of sweeping and began to guard various key points, as if I would not go to you as long as you did not make trouble, and in the sky, more and more planes began to gather at various field airfields, and the struggle for minesweeping and minelaying on the Yangtze River intensified day by day. All signs were telling the crowd that a storm was coming.
-- Taiwan
Taiwan has been reduced to Japan for decades, Japan's rule over Taiwan has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, countless schools teach Japanese, but unlike North Korea, Taiwanese natives do not need to serve in the military, which is probably also Japan's fear of Taiwan's continuous uprisings that year, but after the Sino-Japanese war, Japan began to conscript Taiwanese in September 1937 as military dependents and military husbands who do not have military status. Mainly responsible for logistics work.
In the dark night, more than a dozen warships secretly approached the port, and countless Japanese soldiers disembarked and entered the barracks to prepare for repairs.
More Taiwanese people were conscripted into the army and began to advance to the mainland as military men, and when these Taiwanese people first set foot on the long-lost mainland land, they were as aggressors, which is particularly ironic.
-- Wuhan
Bai Chongxi pointed to the map and said, "According to the information just now, the Japanese army's Terauchi Shouichi and Koiso Kuniaki have held a combat meeting, and the theme of the meeting is the Battle of Wuhan, and the front-line commander-in-chief will be Koiso Kuniaki." ”
Jiang Intermediary touched his beard and asked, "What kind of person is this Xiao Iso Kunizhao?" ”
Dai Lia got up and said, "He graduated from Lu University, but his academic performance was not very outstanding, he ranked 79th among 655 people at the Non-commissioned Officer Academy, and ranked 33rd among 51 people at Lu University, participated in the Russo-Japanese War, was the commander of the Fifth Division and the head of the General Affairs Department of the Aviation Headquarters, and served as the commander of the Korean Army, but he was often suspicious and indecisive. This time he was in charge of the Battle of Wuhan, and there was actually a lot of dissent within the Japanese army, and many Japanese soldiers hoped that Terauchi Shouichi would preside over it. ”
Jiang asked suspiciously, "Then why didn't Shouichi come to the temple?" ”
Bai Chongxi explained, "After all, the main force of the Japanese army this time is Nanjing, and North China is the auxiliary, and Terauchi Shouichi probably doesn't want to be talked about." ”
Jiang Zhong nodded and said, "Then let's introduce the Japanese army's arrangement." ”
Dai Li continued, "According to intelligence, the Japanese army has twelve divisions in North China, namely the 20th, 108th, and 109th Divisions, which are stationed in Shanxi and Suiyuan to deal with the 18th Army and the troops of the Jinsui Army.
The 110th Division was stationed in Hebei, the 21st Division was stationed in Shandong, and the 116th Division was stationed in Tianjin. The 14th Division was stationed in Henan.
In addition, the 4th, 6th, and 16th Mixed Brigades, the 1st Mixed Brigade, the 3rd Mixed Brigade, and the 11th Mixed Brigade sent by the Kwantung Army will participate in the attack on Wuhan, and there will be an unknown number of puppet troops, and the number of Japanese troops will exceed 150,000. ”
After a pause, Dai Li continued, "In addition, in Central China, the Japanese army has gathered fourteen divisions, of which the 27th Division is stationed in Zhejiang, the 17th Division and the 33rd Division are stationed in Jiangsu, the 22nd Division is stationed in Anhui, and the 32nd Division is stationed in Shanghai. So as for where the partisans of our army were.
In addition, the 3rd, 9th, 11th, 13th, 15th, 21st, 101st, 106th, and 114th divisions will participate in the attack on Wuhan, and the navy suspected of having Japanese troops will cooperate with the Japanese army to attack from the Yangtze River, with a total of nine divisions, and there are fewer puppet troops here. But the number of Japanese troops will exceed 250,000. ”
Jiang Zhong's hands trembled a little, and he said slowly, "So, the number of Japanese troops participating in the Battle of Wuhan will be as high as 400,000, not including the puppet army?" ”
Dai Li nodded and continued, "On the Air Force side. The Japanese army had between 500 and 800 combat aircraft, and this did not include the possible temporary reinforcement of the Japanese naval aviation. As for artillery and tanks, horses, etc., due to the number of them. It is impossible to estimate. ”
The whole venue was as quiet as a morgue, although we knew that the enemy was strong and we were weak, but such a force was too terrifying.
Jiang knocked on the table and said, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? Are you all scared? Japan is just a small country, and China has stood in the East for thousands of years, what kind of wind and rain has not been experienced? Can't you get through this time? Hmph, Delin, tell me about the situation of our army, don't exaggerate, don't be modest, tell the truth. ”
Bai Chongxi took a piece of paper and said, "Our army has not lost too much vitality due to the Battle of Nanjing, the Battle of Xuzhou and other battles, so it has a large number of troops, according to the plan of our General Staff, the strength of our army is as follows:
The Ninth Theater was commanded by General Chen Cheng and commanded 34 armies to be responsible for the battle on the south bank of the Yangtze River, which was divided into three routes, the first route was Xue Yue's division, which defended the Nanxun line, and Nanchang was used as a base to break the westward advance of the Japanese army from the periphery, the second route was Zhang Fakui's division to ensure the safety of Jiujiang to Ruichang, and the third route was Tang Enbo's division as a reserve to respond to all kinds of operations at any time.
In addition, I commanded 26 armies to be responsible for the Jiangbei operation, with Liao Lei's department as the middle road, Li Pinxian as the right road, and Sun Lianzhong as the left road.
In addition, Han Deqin's department was the guerrilla behind enemy lines, and the 29th Group Army was the second-line corps to respond to the operation.
Finally, the 3rd and 1st Theaters each performed their duties to prevent the Japanese army from making a detour from the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Line and the Guangdong-Hanzhou Railway. ”
Jiang Zhong nodded and said, "How many people and planes and ships are there in our army?" ”
Bai Chongxi said: "In addition to the Third and First Theaters, our army will participate in the 5th and 9th 62 armies, with 250 combat aircraft, more than 30 warships, and more than 1.3 million troops. It's all we have. ”
Jiang Zhong's voice brightened, and he said, "Comrades, although our heavy weapons lag behind the Japanese invaders, the number of our army is three times that of the Japanese army, and there are so many generals here who can fight well, are you still afraid of that little Japanese invader?" Besides, we still have a steady stream of recruits and support from the southwest and northwest, don't you have confidence yet? ”
Everyone nodded to each other and said in unison, "The party-state will win!" ”
Jiang Intermediary looked at the map on the wall and secretly said, "Come on, let me Jiang someone completely defeat you in Wuhan, and let me Jiang someone become a peerless hero for eternity." ”
"The Chinese nation will mobilize all its material and human resources with a strong and unyielding will. For self-defense. For humanity, we must fight a long-term war against the ferocious aggressors, and until the day of final victory, the compatriots of the whole country and overseas Chinese must unite as one, and all struggles must be centered on consolidating Wuhan and aiming at the victory in the battle of central China. ”
"Click" one hand turned off the radio, and the owner of the other hand said, "Our chairman also sees that the big war is approaching." "This person is Chairman Mao of Yan'an.
"It's amazing, a general battle with a total number of more than 1.5 million people, which is extremely rare in the entire history of world wars. Regardless of the victory or defeat of this battle, it will be recorded in the history of world wars and will be the object of study by future generations of soldiers. Mr. Zhu, who rushed back from Shanxi, shook his head and said, there was a hint of envy in his tone.
"The more people there are, the more difficult it is to command, and there are too many factions in the national army, you see, it is not Tang Enbo who commands Jiangbei this time, everyone understands, that waste has thrown Xuzhou away. If he is not punished, he is still protected by Lao Jiang, but he would rather give Bai Chongxi than let Li Zongren go, hehe, I don't know what Li Zongren thinks in the heart of Li Zongren, who is building roads in the southwest. Zhou Guansheng squinted his eyes. As if he could see Li Zongren's bitter face when he received the news, he said with a smile.
Chairman Mao took a puff of cigarette and said, "It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, let him go." Huang Jie, who threw away Guide, didn't know what kind of ecstasy soup he poured into Lao Jiang, but he was not killed, and he also got another division commander. This old Jiang, the protection of the short is too obvious. ”
Mr. Zhu pursed his lips and nodded, "Chairman, we have a lot of problems, in this anti-sweep, we have a lot of problems with recruits, and there are also a lot of deserters, most of them see that there are too many Japanese troops, and our army always leaves the army when they are transferred, which shows that there are still many loopholes in our army's recruits both ideologically and in military skills." ”
Chairman Mao knocked on the cigarette ash and said, "The work of this recruit is what we have been emphasizing many times, when there was only one 20th division, it was okay, as soon as the devil increased the troops, there was a problem, but it was okay, there was a problem, let's solve the problem, I think that the attention of the Japanese army is focused on Wuhan, we can hold a large-scale military training activity." ”
At this time, a knock on the door attracted the attention of the three of them, and it was the guard Xiao Wang.
"Three chiefs, Comrade 203 is here." Xiao Wang said with a smile, every time Jiang Cheng returned to Yan'an, he would bring a little snack to the people he met, and Xiao Wang now had a bag of broad beans in his pocket, which was enough for him to eat for a few days.
Xiao Wang turned to the side, Jiang Cheng walked in and saw that the three of them were there, and couldn't help laughing, "It's so rare, the three leaders are here." ”
Chairman Mao beckoned and said, "Aren't we waiting for you together, hehe, come in." Well, it's just that the smoke is a bit big. Saying that, Chairman Mao looked at the already smoky room, and was a little embarrassed to put out the cigarette.
Jiang Cheng sat down and asked, "What did the leaders say?" ”
Chairman Mao said, "Lao Jiang has just issued a declaration of the Battle of Wuhan, saying that he will resolutely resist the war to the end, and the information we have obtained shows that this time the Japanese army will invest four or five hundred thousand people, and Lao Jiang has more than one million, which is really a great war." ”
Jiang Cheng heard it and let out a breath and said, "Is it finally here?" Chairman, I have ordered some tanks in modern times, and I am also trying to find a way to make some artillery, I don't know what the chairman thinks? ”
Chairman Mao pointed at Mr. Zhu and said, "We should ask experts about this military issue." ”
Mr. Zhu rubbed his hands and said, "Okay, I just heard that you helped us get planes, and now you are building tanks, I'm afraid our weapons will surpass Little Japan in a short time." We're going to have to enjoy a strong feeling too. ”
Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, the weapons I gave are better than those of any of the great powers." ”
Mr. Zhu pondered for a moment and said, "Now our key is still soldiers, this heavy weapon is not a rifle, you can use it if you go up and teach it, this cannon is like this?" How do you fly an airplane? We must learn how to use tanks, Chairman, this is not only for our soldiers, but also for our commanders and fighters. ”
Chairman Mao nodded and said, "Okay, then we will let our soldiers conduct large-scale training, and at the same time, call our senior commanders and fighters back in turn to learn new tactics and new tactics." Don't wait for Xiao Jiang to get back the tanks, artillery and planes, but our commanders and fighters won't be able to command. ”
After saying this, Chairman Mao said again, "Xiao Jiang, then I will work hard for you during this time, by the way, many of our factories have been established, thanks to you." ”
Jiang Cheng's eyes lit up and asked, "What factory was established?" What's in it? How is the Arsenal now? ”
Chairman Mao unconsciously took out another cigarette, lit it and said, "Our current steel plants, chemical factories and machinery factories have been established one after another, it is not easy, it has been almost a year." ”
Isn't it, Yan'an has been preparing since before the war, and it has been almost a year since today.
Chairman Mao continued, "Now we can reload the bullet, the production line for making new bullets has also been established, although the quality needs to be improved, but how to solve the problem of whether there is or not, the old saying goes, this life is two, two is three, three is everything, we have the first, there will be a second, the third, until we all use our own bullets." ”
Jiang Cheng couldn't wait to go to the factory to have a look now, but knowing that time was pressing, he hurriedly said, "I will transport all the items accumulated in modern times as soon as possible, there have been a lot of things during this time, and my duties as a logistics captain are a little incompetent." ”
Chairman Mao and the three laughed, and Zhou Guansheng pointed at Jiang Cheng and said, "Don't rob the devil of the position, they are our real logistics captain." ”
Jiang Cheng rested for a day, went to see Yu Yishan again, and then traveled back to modern times again, and came to Germany with a large number of medicines, toys, and stockings.
The moment Jiang Cheng was about to open his eyes, a huge sense of oppression descended on Jiang Cheng's body - the space-time ball grew again.
"Ten meters, finally ten meters." Jiang Cheng touched his abdomen, and calculated slightly in his heart, Jiang Cheng's transportation space at this time was a diameter of ten meters, with a total volume of nearly 4,100 cubic meters, even if Jiang Cheng could only use half of the transmission space, it was as high as 2,000 cubic meters.
"Great, so that the transportation of heavy weapons is more convenient." Jiang Cheng said with a smile.
Jiang Cheng opened the door and said to the security guard outside the door, "Go, call Chen Nan, I have something to order." (To be continued.) )
