Chapter 178: Megatron (5)

Song Xilian frowned, Xue Ru's plan was too tempting, but he couldn't withdraw the 36th Division, the troops on the left and right sides were mainly positioned with the 36th Division and the 88th Division, and if they were withdrawn and replaced by other troops, I am afraid it would be difficult to hold it. Once the position of Fujin Mountain is lost, the front-line position of Gushi Mall will also collapse, and the responsibility is heavy. If it was the order of the military commissar, he would have believed Xue Ru, but this was a private action, there was no danger, and he could carry it out, and losing his position might cause the collapse of the defensive line, and he could not afford this responsibility.

Guo Jingchu understood Song Xilian's difficulties, so he said: "Commander Xue, I'm afraid not, the 36th Division is all counted on here, if he withdraws, he will definitely not be able to stop the Japanese attack, and Commander Song can't bear the responsibility." ”

Song Xilian didn't say no, it's really difficult. Xue Ru nodded: "I took it for granted, I didn't expect that King Dongkumiya Tsukihiko also regarded the 71st Army as a strong force, and actually brought the brand-new 13th Division here, it seems that only by solving the 13th Division can it be implemented as planned." ”

Guo Jingchu asked in surprise: "Does Commander Xue have a way to solve the 13th Division?" ”

Xue Ru said: "Originally, in order to keep Tianjia Town, I planned to solve the 6th Division and the 16th Division first, but it seems that I have to deal with this 13th Division first." However, Chief Bai may not be happy, but you are the commander of the Fifth War Zone. ”

Song Xilian said: "I know you have a way, say what to do, Bai Chongxi will not be unhappy." No matter which line of victory, it is the fifth war zone, otherwise he will not agree to your battle plan. It's better to deal with the 13th Division first, and then talk about it. ”

Xue Ru said: "Then tell me about your situation, I don't know too much. ”

Guo Jingchu also didn't know that there were more than 20,000 people in a division of the Japanese army, and Xue Ru had any way to solve it. With such a strong force, it is no longer a simple tactical problem that can be solved, and the two sides are fighting for strength.

Talking about the situation of the entire front, Xue Ru walked back and forth on the ground, frowning, Song Xilian and Guo Jingchu looked at her, not knowing what she was thinking. Want to schemist? Is this a ruse that can be solved?

After a long time, Xue Ru stood up and asked: "Commander Song, the 71st Army plus the 77th Army and the 51st Army are seven divisions, and the total strength is still more than 50,000 people, I just want to ask, are you reluctant to suffer 20,000 or 30,000 casualties." Win this battle? ”

Song Xilian asked puzzledly, "Why do you ask that?" No matter how big the sacrifice is, it's worth it, what's not to be willing to? ”

Xue Ru resolutely did not want to fight such a battle, exchanging casualties for victory, just like Taierzhuang, at the cost of 50,000 casualties, destroying more than 10,000 Japanese troops, others called Dajian, Xue Ru has always scoffed. Does that count as a victory? One to one casualty is not a victory, let alone five to one casualty, so it is really difficult for her to make such a decision, but without such a method, there is really no way now.

Guo Jingchu saw Xue Ru's embarrassment and asked, "Commander Xue, is there anything embarrassing?" It is also good that 20,000 or 30,000 casualties can be won, why is it so difficult? ”

Xue Ru shook his head and said: "Exchange casualties for victory, I don't want to do that, Commander Song knows that I am fighting, we have one casualty, and the Japanese army has two casualties, I won't fight, this is tens of thousands of people, I ......"

It's crazy, isn't it, you don't want to fight two to one? But Song Xilian knew that Xue Ru was fighting, and the casualty ratio was three to one, no matter how big or small, that is, he suffered 1,000 casualties and at least 3,000 devils, shook his head and said: "Little fox, in the end, it is a girl, it is difficult to become an iron-blooded soldier." In exchange for victory, no matter how many casualties are hesitated, let's say, how to fight? ”

Xue Ru has never regarded herself as an iron-blooded soldier, although sometimes she does things that are bloody and cruel, but she still has difficulty making up her mind to kill and injure tens of thousands of people with her own hands. Song Xilian was anxious: "What's the matter with you?" Say it quickly? ”

Xue Ru was really a little difficult, and she was about to cry, and said, "What are you anxious about?" Originally, there were many ways to avoid such large casualties, but ......, but the military committee did not listen to me. ”

Song Xilian and Guo Jingchu really can't say it anymore, in fact, Xue Ru has already said that this side can resist a little bit, just contain the Japanese army, Wuhan can't be saved, why sacrifice so many people? According to Xue Ru's plan, it is completely possible to seize Hefei and the central area and fight a protracted war, so there is no need to die so many people. But everyone knows that it is impossible to get the chairman to give up Wuhan.

Song Xilian didn't dare to lose the position in front of him, so he couldn't carry out Xue Ru's plan. For a long time, he said: "Xue Ru, I know it's difficult to make you make this decision, but you have to see that if you continue to block like this, the casualties are not necessarily small, and in the end, the casualty number may still be above, but the time is open, not a battle and a day, you can't feel it." It's just a concentrated casualty, you can't stand it, I don't know how you plan to fight, as long as you can win, don't you understand? ”

Xue Ru was shocked, these words are too right, in fact, in any battle, the casualties of the Chinese army are not small, they are just scattered, and they don't feel it. The total number of casualties before and after Shanghai is 330,000, Nanjing is more than 50,000, Xuzhou is also more than 100,000, what about Wuhan? The losses were as high as more than 200,000 yuan, not counting the Eighth Route Army behind enemy lines during the entire War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the national army lost more than 3 million frontal battlefield losses, and the number of casualties in the whole country was 35 million.

The anger and hatred rose in Xue Ru's heart again, but it was only twenty or thirty thousand casualties, if the war could be ended early, how many fewer people could die? Killing people is to save people, how can you save lives if you don't kill? Killing to stop killing is also the king's way. Sacrificing the ego, fulfilling the ego, and being benevolent, the pain on her face is disappearing, and there is a thick hatred in her eyes, it seems that she was wrong from the beginning, and she emphasized too much to reduce casualties, so that she couldn't fight a big battle, in fact, the longer the time drags on, the greater the casualties in China? She seemed to understand in an instant.

Looking at the change in the expression on her face, Song Xilian didn't know what Xue Ru wanted to understand? But it can be determined that she has figured it out, and Guo Jingchu is looking at her, Xue Ru said: "Commander Song, can you give me the command?" ”

Song Xilian said: "I'm by your side, tell me what orders you need, I'll give it, or you can say that you are me now." ”

Xue Ru nodded: "Okay, let's destroy the 13th Division." This tone frightened Song Xilian and Guo Jingchu, what a big breath, annihilating the 13th Division, with only 60,000 or 70,000 people in these three armies?

Since Xue Ru has made up his mind, of course, he has a way, and said to Song Xilian: "Inform all troops, each battalion is a unit, organize death squads, at least ensure the number of one company, I need to organize it within one day, each person is equipped with twenty *, and then organize a company of stormtroopers, at least twenty machine guns, see how many personnel, report to me." ”

What kind of tactic is this? Neither of them understood, but Song Xilian knew Xue Ru's tactics, so he really couldn't think about it, so he said to Guo Jingchu: "Order, all units will be ready within twenty-four hours, and the regiment commander will personally command and report to the former enemy command." ”

Xue Ru said: "Commander Song, send a telegram to the 45th Independent Brigade, tell them, just say my order, drive to the direction of the mall, immediately go to Huoshan, capture Huoshan within 24 hours, and then attack Lu'an, after arriving at Huoshan, I will personally command." ”

Song Xilian asked, "They belong to the Ninth War Zone, will they listen to orders?" ”

Xue Ru smiled: "The forty-fifth brigade is the person of the snow fox, and it will always be, give me a radio." ”

"Okay" Song Xilian now believes that Xue Ru is preparing to fight against the 16th Division, and now he is turning around to deal with the 13th Division. Guo Jingchu was also a little anxious, he was the chief of staff, these things were his, he immediately left the office and gave orders to the 77th Army and the 51st Army to prepare death squads and stormtroopers within 24 hours.

Song Xilian completely understood that Xue Ru was not waiting for the Japanese army to attack, she wanted to attack first, and it was her offense as defense. Said worriedly: "The Japanese 3rd Division is still on the flank, once the 13th Division is attacked, the commander of the 3rd Division may drive straight in." ”

Xue Ru said: "Don't worry, there is General Zhang Zizhong's 59th Army in Xinyang, he will definitely be able to block the Japanese army for three days, you send a telegram to Commander Zhang, no matter what the situation, hold on for three days, and if Fujita does not take Xinyang in three days, I will let them lose another division." ”

"Okay, I'll send a telegram to Commander Zhang, I believe him." Song Xilian said: "They are all troops in the Fifth War Zone, do you want to inform Chief Bai?" ”

Xue Ru shook his head: "Don't use it first, I believe that Commander Zhang, as long as he tells him that the 71st Army will destroy the 13th Division within three days, he will resolutely implement it." ”

Song Xilian said: "Do you know Commander Zhang? ”

Xue Ru shook his head: "I don't know, but I believe he can." ”

Song Xilian said impatiently: "Fox spirit, believe in you." ”

Xue Ru no longer had a verbal fight with Song Xilian, but used the radio to order Liu Yuanshan to draw out 200 people from the Snow Fox Corps, and asked to be officers above the detachment leader, so that all the low-level officers of the Snow Fox were almost free, and at the same time ordered the promotion of a group of new officers, the task remained unchanged, and the pressure on the three counties was maintained, and the selected officers rushed to the mall within 24 hours.

Looking at Xue Ru's arrangement, I didn't understand why. Song Xilian said: "In three days, if you want to destroy the Japanese army, is it impossible to have 20,000 people?" Xue Ru is very clear about why she thinks she has such a large number of casualties, of course, she has her own way of playing. But these are not something that can be explained in one sentence or two, so he glared at him: "Leave it to me to command, believe me, otherwise I don't care." ”

Song Xilian raised his hand: "Are you looking for a fight?" Don't forget, I'm the commander-in-chief, or your uncle. ”

"Shameless, who admits that you are an uncle?" Xue Ru said.

Song Xilian said: "During the meeting, I met Xue Yue, and he said that you are his niece, and of course I am an uncle. ”

"Hmph" Xue Ru snorted and stretched out his hand: "You have to have a meeting gift, right?" ”

Song Xilian looked at her: "I really don't have anything that girls like, okay, I'll make it up for you after the battle." ”

Xue Ru's thinking was different, of course, he also wanted to have a good relationship with these people, but he didn't expect Xue Yue to not hold a grudge against himself, so he said: "Just give me your gun." ”

Song Xilian said distressedly: "You are very sharp-eyed, this is my most beloved thing." Well, for the sake of calling uncle, I'll give it to you. ”

Xue Ru is very happy, this is a German*, silver-white, the handle is inlaid with glass, Xue Ru saw Patton in the movie General Patton has one, but he didn't expect Song Xilian to have one. At this time, I want to come and play happily.

Song Xilian shook his head, he didn't want to be an uncle, he wanted to be an elder brother, but he was a smart person, what Xue Ru showed was by no means the behavior of a little girl, and it would not look like anything in the future. She has obviously begun to grasp power, with her military exploits, will it be lower? said: "Xue Ru, do you want to enter the Huangpu Military Academy, this phase in Chongqing is about to start." ”

Whampoa Military Academy? Xue Ru was stunned, Xue Ru was not interested in Huangpu's famous generals. Looking at the performance of the generals of the national army, the level of Huangpu is also limited, it is just a gold-plated place. Thinking of the gilding, I also understood what Song Xilian meant: "I command the army, how can I have time to study?" However, it's okay to give a diploma. ”

Of course, Song Xilian understands that with Xue Ru's current talent, she should enter Lu University, and it is definitely not Huangpu, but it is just to pull her into this camp. He said: "Of course you don't have to study, I'll give you a recommendation to sign up, just have the opportunity to learn." ”

If it was before, Xue Ru might not be able to join, but this time is different, from Huangpu, the identity is different. Principal Jiang likes Whampoa students very much, and he will have a backer in the future. What Xue Yue and Bai Chongxi didn't grow up as the current biggest boss Jiang Chang, so he nodded: "You can do it, I don't have tuition, you can help me pay it." ”

"Fool, that's where soldiers are trained, once you enter the school, you will be a soldier of the country, what tuition fees? And the perks. Leave it to me, how can I be an uncle," Song Xilian said proudly.

Looking at him, Xue Ru also understood that there was not much emotion, more about exploitation, so he didn't say it anymore. Listening to Guo Jingchu's report, he issued orders to Snow Fox one by one at the same time, waiting for the reports of various armies.

Here Xue Ru suddenly entered the 71st Army, of course the Japanese army would not know, and King Dongkugong Tsukihiko only knew that the snow fox was attacking Taihu Lake, Qianshan and Huaining, but they did not attack with all their strength, but only kept the pressure.

This made King Dongkumiya Tsuruhiko not dare to let the 16th Division attack Shucheng and Tongcheng with all its might, who knows what tricks Xue Ru has.

I can't help but say that Xue Ru has already caused a shadow in the devil's heart, and he originally wanted to wait for Xue Ru's Snow Fox Corps to attack with all his might, and he would also let the 16th Division attack with all his strength, and take advantage of the Snow Fox clone to conquer Shucheng and Tongcheng in one fell swoop. King Tokumiya also had his own purpose, and if this side was balanced, then the 13th and 3rd Divisions would be able to capture Xinyang, the 6th Division would be able to smash open the gate of Tianjia Town, and the 11th Army would capture Wuhan before Okamura Ninji.

The 6th Division was ordered to intensify its attack, occupy Tianjia Town, and open the gate to Wuhan. King Dongkunomiya didn't know that Xue Ru didn't care if Wuhan was lost or not, she originally wanted to kill two birds with one stone, that is, to solve the attack on Wuhan, and also to destroy the 16th Division and capture Hefei. But this side is pressed and can't draw troops, so let's solve one by one.

The speed of the snow fox is the fastest, two hundred officers at midnight, riding into the mall, this is the elite of the snow fox, all the detachment leaders and squad leaders, it is not enough Some soldiers with good tactical command.

Seeing them arrive, Xue Ru said to Guo Jingchu: "The three armies have organized more than 100 death squads and stormtroopers, and my people are one team at a time, and they are the commanders of the army headquarters, and they have the right to enforce the law on the battlefield, and those who do not obey orders will be shot on the spot." ”

Guo Jingchu looked at Song Xilian, and when he saw the army commander nodding, he also issued an order to send these people to the various units that were drawn out, and after twenty-four hours, all the troops were finally prepared.

"Report" The soldier reported: "The 45th separate brigade reached Huoshan. ”
