Chapter 287: The Great War Begins

"Sister Jing, Sister Jing......" When Tang Jing was still shaking her mind, Leng Yue rushed into her office.

"Xiaoyue, what's your name, you don't know how to knock when you come in?" Tang Jing looked up and saw that Lao Xiao had already left, so she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, when did Lao Xiao leave, she didn't know, she was really distracted.

"Sister Jing, my good sister, if you don't take the initiative, it's too late, someone has already taken the lead last night." Leng Yue pouted and complained.

"This girl, what nonsense, what kind of preemptive?"

"You don't know?"

"What do I know, I've been operating on the wounded all day, where do I have the spare time to listen to all that gossip news?" Tang Jing sorted out the wounded files on the table and said.

"Sister Jing, let me tell you, if you don't take the initiative to be nice to my brother, I won't be able to call you sister-in-law in the future." Leng Yue said dissatisfied.

"What does it matter if you call me sister-in-law or not?"

"Sister Jing, you and my brother grew up together, you are two months younger than my brother, you two are a pair made in heaven, these two have changed posts, my father recognizes you as a daughter-in-law, you say, if you don't be my sister-in-law, who will do it, let that Rakshasa girl, I can't call it." Leng Yue said.

"What are you talking about, I don't understand a word." Tang Jing was a little relieved.

"Sister Jing, do you really not know, or do you pretend not to know?"

"Get rid of it, my Miss Leng, I really don't know, if you tell me well, I still have an operation in a while, and I don't have time to listen to you say this."

"Okay, I'll tell you what I heard, don't be angry when you hear it." Leng Yue took a preventive injection.

"You don't say it. Not to mention that I went to prepare for surgery. ”

"Good. I say. I said, last night, the Wu staff went to find my brother, what did you ask my brother to do for him? ”

Tang Jing's fingers trembled, saying that she didn't care, and when she heard Wu Xiaoyun, she couldn't help but tingle in her heart.

"She went to ask my brother to help her change the dressing." Leng Yue said, "Lonely men and widows are in the same room. It took twenty minutes to come out of it. ”

"It's just a change of medicine, it's not a big deal, your brother's medical skills are not bad, I still have to learn from him in many aspects." Tang Jing's face changed slightly, and she quickly recovered.

"Sister Jing, aren't you jealous at all?"

"What are you jealous of, the healer's parents' hearts, and besides, the witch staff is injured, even if they have anything. What else can be done? Tang Jing said.

"Sister Jing, you can't even see this. The woman surnamed Wu took advantage of your absence from my brother's side and used the excuse of changing the medicine to lean on my brother to win sympathy. Leng Yue snorted, "I don't believe it, they can't find a woman to come to the temporary management committee, so they have to change the dressing and bandage her?" ”

"Xiaoyue, if you just want to tell me this, then don't tell me about this kind of thing in the future, his affairs have nothing to do with me." Tang Jing said.

"Sister Jing......" looked at Tang Jing's departing back, Leng Yue stomped her foot and chased after her.

Tang Jing really doesn't mind at all, no, it's just that she knows very well that now is not the time for children to grow up, she believes that Leng Feng doesn't have that kind of idea at this time, as for Wu Xiaoyun, she also believes that she is a person who carries heavy weights, maybe, just a little selfishness.

From the first time she saw Wu Xiaoyun, she faintly felt that she was going to fight with this woman for the rest of her life.

Capital Hotel, Provisional Management Committee.

"Deputy Commander-in-Chief, Liu Xinyu reported that the Japanese naval fleet was coming from the direction of Shanghai, two destroyers, one cruiser, four gunboats, and four barges......"

"Keep a close watch, if the Japanese fleet passes through the Jiangyin channel, report it immediately!" Leng Feng calmly ordered.

"Yes!"

"According to the Jiangbei War Report, the first detachment of our National Salvation Division set up a blocking position in the White Horse Battalion east of the Fork River, and encountered fierce battles with a wing of the Japanese Tiangu Brigade, and the Japanese army charged several times, but failed to break through our position."

"Got it, remind Deputy Chief of Staff Liao, the Japanese army can't attack head-on, be careful of their roundabout side attacks, this is their usual trick, and also, hurry up and train the captured officers and soldiers of our army in the Pukou prisoner of war camp, how to supplement it, he decides for himself." Leng Feng ordered.

"Yes!"

Jiangbei fights well, Nanjing City is more comforted, it doesn't matter if Nanjing City is lost, it will be lost sooner or later anyway, the difference is how much time can be gained.

Wuhan does not have the strength to launch another battle of Nanjing, otherwise it is very likely that the capital will be completely recovered.

But at this time, it is best not to have such thoughts, in addition to the immaturity of the time, there is also the government to concentrate its forces near Xuzhou, if the strategy is changed in a hurry, then Xuzhou will not be able to stop the Japanese army in North China, the Japanese army will go south along the Jinpu Road, and the Longhai Road will advance west to force Kaifeng and Luoyang, and the situation will be even worse.

Therefore, Leng Feng did not consider how much support the government would give him from the beginning, and everything was prepared according to the worst plan and the most severe situation.

He could not move those troops in the national government under his cold command, there was only one new 38 brigade, and the others, which one of them was not more qualified than him? He begged for ten sentences, but it was not as good as Lao Jiang's sentence.

Therefore, if you can help, let's write it down, and we will have our own rewards in the future, and if you don't help, we will ignore it in the future, anyway, we still have to rely on ourselves to fight this war, and we can't rely on those people in the government.

"The new 38th Brigade took the initiative to attack, fought a sneak attack of the Sixth Division, annihilated a squadron of the Japanese army, and captured a large number of weapons and ammunition."

"Well, remind Luo Yufeng that the Japanese army is not so easy to deal with, they have deployed a large number of troops on the front line of Wuhu and Ningguo, mainly to defend against a possible counterattack in the third theater, and the Japanese army is scattered, which is the best opportunity for us to drill into their hinterland and destroy." Leng Feng said.

"Boss, are you asking Brigade Commander Luo to fight a guerrilla war with the Japanese army?" Guo Weiquan asked.

"It's a sports war, don't fight with the Japanese army, hit and run, pay attention to the safety of the flanks at any time, lead the Japanese army by the nose, don't let the Japanese army perceive their target, and pay attention to reconnaissance in advance. It is enough to entangle the 6th Division for three days. “

"Understood."

It has been two nights since the Nanjing counterattack took place. Shanghai Beach has been blown up. The whole world was stunned by this sudden counterattack, and the Chinese made such a big move without making a sound, and the will of this nation to resist was underestimated.

The Japanese Army headquarters also held an emergency meeting to discuss a solution to the crisis, and for a time the atmosphere in the streets of Tokyo became tense.

It was impossible for the Japanese government to completely blockade such a big news, and there were also well-informed among the people, and soon the news spread that the Japanese troops had been driven out after occupying Nanjing, the capital of China, for a month and eighteen days.

This is for the Japanese people. It is unacceptable, the Japanese army is invincible in China, how could it suffer such a major defeat?

This must be the incompetence of the generals!

This opinion of the people also affected the upper echelons of the Japanese army, and the base camp also needed someone to take responsibility for the Nanjing incident, and they were happy to guide this question to this direction.

The Japanese army base camp quickly unanimously agreed that Nanjing must be recaptured again, and the majesty of the Imperial Japanese Army must not be lost, and in addition, it was to ask Central China to send troops to rescue the Japanese military and political dignitaries who had fallen in Nanjing, and the first section chief of the Japanese General Staff Headquarters, who had originally visited Nanjing on 1 February. Major General Masaharu Honma personally took charge of organizing the rescue work.

"What, mines were found in the fairway. The destroyer Jiangfeng was blown up and the bow ......"

"Damn, ask the Navy, when will the channel be cleared?" When the 16th Division was attacked by the Chinese army in Tangshan, suffering heavy casualties, the news came that the Jiangyin end of the Yangtze River waterway was blocked by mines.

The Chinese seem to be tricky, one. So many mines came out in the night.

"Your Excellency, Commander, it will take at least two days to clear the mines last night, because there are thousands of mines that can be seen!"

"Thousands of mines, the Chinese can be one. Did you make such a mine in the night? Shunroku Hata roared angrily, from the moment he set foot in China, everything went wrong, and he became manic, who had always been moody.

The Navy replied that it was a plane that was seen by a low-altitude skimming over the river, and there were also photos confirming Jiangyin. The narrowest part of the waterway is densely covered with thousands of mines, although some are real and some are fake, but the navy can't figure out which one is real and which one is fake for a while, the navy's minesweepers are all engaged with the China Navy in Madang, and the China Army has laid more mines on the water surface in the Dangtu area of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River......"

"Nonsense, those bastards in the Admiralty, they know how to make excuses, where did the people get so many mines?" Shunroku Hatata's chief of staff, Shozo Kawabe, immediately scolded the exit.

"Your Excellency Commander, the Navy has provided aerial photographs confirming that the Chinese have laid mines in the lower reaches of Wuhu, a waterway on the Yangtze River, and there are a large number of ......them," a Japanese second lieutenant staff officer reminded in a low voice.

"Baga, this must be a trick of the Zhina people, fake, all fake!"

"The Air Force reported that the Chinese people used the Imperial expatriates as cover on the ferry, and if our pilots dropped bombs, they would inevitably injure the Imperial expatriates, so their bomber formation did not drop bombs and returned directly......"

"What, the bombers are back, why not just bomb Nanjing?"

"The city of Nanjing is already in ruins, the people of China are hiding in bomb shelters, and the bombing can only be a waste of the empire's aerial bombs!"

"Rubbish, bastard!"

"Your Excellency Commander, the officers above the rank of commander of each division and regiment have arrived, please give me a lecture!" Shunroku Hatata's adjutant bowed.

Buzzing......

"Leng Feng, although your method is a little damaged, it is effective, look, the little Japanese bomber didn't lay a single egg, and flew away by itself."

"They were afraid of bombing their own expatriates by mistake, so they had no choice but to return." Leng Feng said, "However, we have to hurry up, how many people in the city have not crossed the river?" ”

"According to our statistics, there are at least 200,000 or so."

"Hurry up and strive to evacuate all the people in Nanjing to Jiangbei before 12 o'clock tomorrow morning!" Leng Feng commanded.

"The temporary management committee reported that there were not enough tents in Jiangbei, and asked if some could be transported?"

"How many more are in our captured Japanese warehouses?"

"There are also some of them, about a thousand or so, which are reserved for our military."

"Send them another 500."

"Yes!"

"The Japanese army should be coming, why hasn't there been any movement yet?" Qiu Qingquan came down from the roof of the building, threw the telescope to the adjutant, and asked Leng Feng.

"The reconnaissance detachment hasn't come back yet, and I reported a while ago that the Japanese army is gathering troops in Jurong, and I believe it won't be long before it comes." Leng Feng said.

I hope that the Japanese army will come later, so that he will have more time to rearm and fight.

"After lunch in a while, I'm going to go to the walled position to have a look." Leng Feng said.

"Okay, let's go over together."

"Report to the two commanders, Moling Pass found a small group of Japanese troops, like the Japanese army's reconnaissance spearhead."

"It's coming!" Leng Feng and Qiu Qingquan looked at each other and smiled.

"The direction of the Japanese army's attack is exactly the same as two months ago, after all, this road is familiar, and it must not be difficult to do it again." Leng Feng and Qiu Qingquan returned to the headquarters together and stood in front of the sand table.

At the beginning, the Japanese army claimed to be besieging the city with 200,000 troops, and our defenders were actually only 80,000, and there were only half of the recruits, and now the maximum number of troops that the Japanese army can use is only two divisions and regiments, and the strength is only 50,000. Leng Feng said.

"How do you want to fight?" Qiu Qingquan asked.

"We don't have enough troops to fight the periphery with the Japanese army, and even the line is too long, and the divided forces can't hold it at all, as long as one point is broken by the Japanese army, the entire front will completely collapse, and we have no air defense, once the position is exposed, it is equivalent to being exposed to the blows of the Japanese aircraft and artillery, in that way, our casualties will be very large, this is not the result I want."

Qiu Qingquan suddenly opened his eyes: "Do you want to bring in the Japanese army, mix with them, and fight in the streets?" ”

"Why not, as long as the people in Nanjing City are evacuated, we have no scruples, we can let the Japanese army in, as long as they come in, their planes will not be able to use their strength, as for the heavy artillery, urban street fighting, these houses, streets, etc., it is difficult to let them play their combat effectiveness, and our home advantage can be released, urban street fighting, as long as the tactics are appropriate, Nanjing City will become a terrifying city where the Japanese army has no return!" Leng Feng said heavily.

"I want to divide the city of Nanjing into more than a dozen areas, the radio distribution is at the level of the battalion or even the company level, and only one battalion of troops will be put into one district, so that we will put in about 4,000 people at most at one time, some of them will be replenished, and some of them will eat and rest, and take turns to fight the Japanese army.

"It's good, but in that case, when are we going to evacuate?"

"When the Japanese broke through the mine blockade area in Jiangyin, it was time for us to evacuate, Shizuo, do you want to see how I strangled these 50,000 Japanese troops?" Leng Feng said.

"Strangulation?"

"Once the Japanese army enters the city, they will face to face with us, their aircraft and artillery will lose their advantage, and they can only engage in street fighting with us, the Japanese army is not accustomed to street fighting, and we are different, I will teach everyone the art of street fighting, and the entire city of Nanjing will become the grave of the Japanese army!" Leng Feng said.

"I'm worried about Jiangbei, the 13th Division of the Japanese army may come back at any time, and Liao Sen only has one detachment, I'm afraid I can't withstand it." Qiu Qingquan said.

"I will transfer the heavy artillery regiment and the tank squadron to Jiangbei to strengthen the strength of Brother Jianchu!"

"You're going to transfer the heavy artillery regiment away?"

"Yes, once the street fighting begins, the role of heavy artillery is not great, it is better to transport it to Jiangbei as soon as possible, this is our heavy equipment, it can't be left to the Japanese, besides, I won't transfer it now, without heavy artillery, this battle is not easy to fight." Leng Feng's eyes sparkled. (To be continued.) )
