Chapter 509 won't play with you
That night, the Chinese army that pursued the devil on the battlefield in Wuhan retreated on all fronts, and all of them withdrew to the defense line that had just begun to pursue.
Everything is ready, just waiting for the troops of the national army to catch up, and now they don't cooperate at all, they all withdraw, isn't this playing with yourself, you started chasing so hard, and now you don't chase it!
"General, let's do it now, according to the recent statistical casualty report, in this battle, our casualties are huge, there is no way to launch the third battle of Wuhan, and our materials are almost all lost!" A devil major general staff officer came over and asked Okamura Ninji.
"Order the troops, continue to retreat, and start building fortifications at the place of the second line of defense we have planned!" Gangcun Cining waved his hand and said. Now he has no choice, he has lost the first move, and he has no power to return to the sky.
"General, the Navy called back and told us that at our request, the fighter planes of the aircraft carrier can take off to the battlefield we have set up at about 12 o'clock tomorrow!" Another staff officer came in and said.
"Tell the Admiralty that they don't need to hurry up, they can just arrive tomorrow, the national army will not chase them, and the planes on our aircraft carrier will not be able to catch up with their defensive line to bomb!" Okamura Ninji said to the staff officer, who nodded and went out.
"General, what should we do next, now we can't complete the task assigned to us by the base camp!" Higashi asked from the side.
"Let's stabilize the front first, our morale is very low, we need to stabilize it, and then fight a victory, or our soldiers don't want to recover at all, and also, we need more troops to the base camp, one is to replenish the troops. One is to increase the input of troops in the Battle of Wuhan! Okamura Ninji said as he sat there.
"But you have to know that there is a material crisis in our empire, in the first Wuhan battle last year, there was a crisis in our empire's economy, and we no longer have so many materials being sent to the battlefield of the Wuhan battle, and now the navy has a very big opinion on our army, and they demand to increase investment in the navy and open up a new front!
Otherwise, in China, we simply won't get so many materials to support the empire to fight! Dongjiuxun Gong said worriedly beside him.
"I know, but we have to win the battle of Wuhan, and we have to open the route from here to Southeast Asia. If we don't let the two fronts fight, our losses will be even greater, and we must open the passage between China and Southeast Asia!
Those old men in the base camp should know that if we really give up the Chinese battlefield, then we will soon be driven out by the Chinese army, so that our mainland Jihua will be completely defeated all these years! This is not in line with the strategy set by the Empire! Don't worry, they'll support us in the fight! Okamura Ninji sighed and said,
Originally, the entire battle of Wuhan would have been in their favor before mid-July, but they did not expect it to take less than a month. There was such a big turnaround on the entire battlefield that they didn't have time to react at all! You can only be beaten passively!
"Report!" A staff officer interrupted Okamura's musings.
"Report to Your Excellency, Commander, the latest casualty report is out." The staff officer placed a statistical haode report on Okamura's desk and went out in a salute.
Okamura Ninji looked at the cover of the battle damage report, he didn't dare to open it, he could imagine how many casualties he had this time. Reports of requests for help and requests for ammunition from all over the country had been flying like snowflakes before, but now that the national army has withdrawn, it is slightly better.
But Okamura had to open it. When I finished reading it, I closed my eyes.
"Your Excellency, Commander?" Dongjiuxun Gong Miyan shouted quietly beside him.
"Hair base camp! Ask for more troops and replenishment! Okamura Ninji said to Higashikyumiya Mizuhiko. Dongjiuxun Gong opened the report,
"Nani, in one day, our casualties are so big?" Dong Jiuxun Gong Yan looked at the report in surprise and said. According to the report, nearly 70,000 people were injured and 90,000 were injured, and basically all the materials were lost.
Now in addition to the weapons in the hands of the soldiers, other weapons and materials are basically thrown on the battlefield, if you still attack, the materials to be replenished are much more than the Wuhan battle, although it was not successful last year, but many weapons and equipment are still there, as long as the war consumption can be replenished, but now, not only to replenish the consumption, but also to replenish the lost equipment, otherwise, there is no way to fight!
"Send it over, as expected. Now I'm thinking, how did Li Zongren know that I set up an ambush for him, and actually retreated in such a situation, if he didn't see my plan clearly, it would be impossible for him to retreat, you know, if he continued to chase, it was possible to completely annihilate our troops, but he actually gave up! This is really puzzling to me! Okamura Ninji touched his bald head and said.
"Commander, is it possible that his back is not good, but there is a master Weishenme who has never seen him like this before, you know, the reason why he was able to win against us last year was because our logistics supply line was broken, otherwise he wouldn't have tried to beat us at all!" Dongjiuxun Gong Mitsuhiko said immediately.
"Well, there should be a master, I still know him, I have fought with him a few times, and this time he won me! Looks like we're going to find out about the master behind him! Otherwise, we will still lose the next battle in Wuhan! Okamura Ninji stood up and said, then came to the front of the map and looked at the map.
"General, isn't it Hu Hao!" A communications staff officer immediately said to Okamura Ninji's back, and Okamura Ninji immediately turned around to look at the staff officer.
"What did you say, Hu Hao? That bastard who got rid of our airport! How could it be him? Okamura Ninji immediately asked.
"General, apart from him, I can't think of anyone else, this time he came to attack our airport, after attacking the airport, he immediately telegraphed, the next day, as soon as it was dawn, Li Zongren launched an attack, and their air force directly attacked our warehouse, if it wasn't him, I don't know who it was!" The major general's staff officer said immediately.
"How could it be him, I've seen all his information, and it says that he is a dumbfounder, he dares to do anything, even his superiors dare to top, if he has this strategy, he can still do such a thing, can't, it can't be him, if it's him, isn't it a joke?" Okamura Ninji said immediately.
"But, General, you forgot, he wrote the infantry drill code, if it weren't for his infantry drill code, even if Li Zongren launched an attack this time, our casualties might be so large, now every front is saying that the current Chinese army is becoming more and more difficult to deal with, if he is a brainless person, can he write the infantry drill code?" The major general's staff officer said immediately.
"Nani, wait, you make me think! You make me think! Okamura Ninji immediately waved his hand to signal him not to speak, and let him think for himself.
Okamura Ningji walked to the window, where did he start thinking about the information about Hu Hao, slowly, he also felt that it was Hu Hao in his heart, but he was still not sure, if he really had this strategy, the above would not let him lead the team to attack the airport, you must know that this is a life of nine deaths, the national army will not be so extravagant, let such a person do this kind of thing, but if it weren't for him, he really couldn't think of who it was!
"Send a telegram to the intelligence agencies in Wuhan immediately, asking them to find the person behind Li Zongren for me at any cost, and once it is confirmed, send us a telegram immediately!" Li Zongren said to the staff officer just now.
"Yes!" The staff officer also went out to send a telegram immediately.
"Your Excellency Commander, I feel that what Ono-kun said just now is right, if it weren't for him, I wouldn't be able to guess who it was!" Dongjiuxun Gong Mitsuhiko said immediately.
"I know, I'm a little skeptical now, but there are still a lot of things that don't make sense, let's wait until it's confirmed, besides, now that I have found Hu Hao, I can't let him live freely after blowing up our airport, we must find him, and then kill him!" Okamura Ninji said immediately.
"I haven't checked yet, the main thing is that all the troops at the airport have been sent out to reinforce, there is no time, after this return, we will make greater efforts to find out his whereabouts, if we find him, we will kill him at all costs!" Dongjiuxun Gong Yan said affirmatively beside him.
"Well, we have to hurry up, now the North China side is also asking us to get rid of this person, this person has brought us a lot of losses in North China, but they have no way to deal with him!" After Okamura Ninji finished speaking, he looked at the map with his hands behind his back,
And after Li Zongren of the Wuhan Command got those intelligence analysis, he was also afraid, according to the analysis of the intelligence personnel on his side, the devil's naval aircraft carrier can arrive at the battlefield at noon tomorrow at the earliest.
If you don't withdraw tonight, then tomorrow your troops will all be under the attack of the devil's air force, and they will strike in the field, and there will be no place to hide at all! Fortunately, it has been withdrawn in advance!
"It's too dangerous, it's too dangerous, or we really can't afford our losses!" Chen Cheng looked at the map and said to the intelligence.
"This Hu Hao, he can actually see this, hey!" The commander also looked at the map and sighed, the other three people are also what he means tomorrow, and there is no way in his heart, Hu Hao is from Yan'an, not from Chongqing at all, so even if he has the ability, he is not his own person, and he is not very comfortable to use.
"Commander, Hu Hao wants our air force to send him these supplies tomorrow, do you want to send the air force to drop them to him!" Li Zongren sent the first telegram sent to him by Hu Hao to the commander-in-chief. (To be continued......)
