The level of the chief of staff is still very high, although his own books and reports on various aspects of Japan have made him no longer a stranger to the Japanese and the Japanese army, and he can come to such a conclusion, and he is indeed better than himself in terms of grasping the overall military strategy! His strengths should be in the aspect of soldiers and individual soldiers, but he is short of strategic understanding.

After reading the list given by the chief of staff, I was a little disappointed, I had worked hard for so many years, just such a little thing. But the chief of staff said happily: "Sir, if we had these things for many years, we would have been able to drive the Japanese directly into the sea in Shanghai." ”

"The chief of staff is optimistic, the Japanese will not take more than three days from mobilization to the arrival of reinforcements in Shanghai, it is impossible to drive them into the sea, at most let them keep more blood."

"Haha, sir, that's not bad! Make our sacrifice more worthwhile! ”

"How's our medics?"

"There are about 100 people, but none of them have the ability to operate, so they can only do battlefield ambulance or first aid! The 10 trained in the hospital may be of a higher level. ”

"Chief of Staff, I'll talk about the basic idea, and you can think about it. If there are three battlefields, I would like to intervene in two, one on the Pingjin side and the other on the Shanghai side.

Our core mission is rescue support, large-scale battles, and throwing these forces into it will not cause any waves. Then the first rescue mission was medical treatment, and two medical teams were formed, supporting the north and south respectively. It was easier for Shanghai to build a mobile hospital and retreat to Shaanxi immediately after the battle. The north is more troublesome, it is estimated that the Japanese will reach Shanxi in one breath, that is to say, the mission is divided into two stages, one is in Hebei, mainly to cooperate with containment to rescue, on the plain the Japanese will advance faster than everyone thinks, so don't think about battlefield rescue; Shanxi itself is easy to defend and difficult to attack, especially because there are many passes, and the rescue tasks are mainly battlefield rescue and the establishment of small rear mobile hospitals. We need to mobilize the doctors in the hospitals, in the name of the Medical Rescue Volunteer Team. It is necessary to organize and conduct training as soon as possible to train the capabilities of air defense, anti-specialty, and battlefield rescue cooperation. The method of sending doctors to the countryside in advance is adopted to go to the predetermined side, and doctors are mobilized or hired along the way to strengthen the force. ”

"Sir, I'll organize this."

"The second aspect is to intervene in the battle, we can now draw more than 1,500 troops at most, and the task of protecting the base and construction of other troops is not easy.

On the Pingjin side, the first stage is the special operation. In the direction of Beiping, the Japanese have an armament warehouse in Fengtai, in the area of North Confucius Zhuangzi and South Confucius Zhuangzi, the locals call it 'East Warehouse', and the locals say that the wall is very high, and they can't see what is inside. After the Japanese devils attacked, after the warehouse was empty, find a way to blow it up; If it succeeds, it will slow down the enemy's continuous offensive ability to a certain extent, haha, don't expect much effect, the enemy's logistical supply capacity is very high.

In the direction of Tianjin, it depends on the fact that the defenders of Tianjin do not have the courage to counterattack the devils, if there are, special operation targets, one is a military warehouse set up by the Japanese at the dock, the other is a bank of the Japanese, and the other is that if the defenders attack the Japanese airfield, we will give special operations cooperation. In addition, if the defenders dare to attack, we will provide support in terms of weapons and ammunition, as well as rescue support from the medical team. Find a way to see if you can help the teachers and students of Nankai University to evacuate. That's what comes up to it. ”

After a pause, seeing that the chief of staff had completed the record, he continued: "In the second stage, the personnel are divided into two parts, and one part of the elite is divided into several groups, and when the rear of the enemy's attack is empty, the focus is on striking at the enemy's logistics base.

The main force of the militia regiment had to play a role at this time, one was to protect the medical team, and the other was to build a blocking position in a reasonable place to properly block the pursuit of a small group of the enemy and give the stragglers more opportunities to retreat. Reconnaissance communications should be unimpeded, and once the enemy brigade arrives, it must be retreated in advance.

In the third stage, you can choose to retreat to Pingxing Pass or Yanmen Pass, the task is to help the defenders build fortifications, the second is to assist the defenders in air defense, and the third is to provide medical aid, and the special operations personnel are grouped together plus some cooperative personnel to lay mines and destroy bridges along the way. After that, the special operations personnel stay behind enemy lines and fight autonomously, waiting for opportunities to disrupt logistics supplies, or destroy enemy airfields, artillery positions, and so on. Of course, there is an opportunity to raid the enemy's command system, and don't let it go!

In the fourth stage, there are two tasks in Taiyuan, one is to provide medical aid for the defense of Taiyuan, and the other is to see if Yan Xishan's arsenal is retreating cleanly, if not, the equipment can be pulled back, or hidden; Or destroy clean. Chief of Staff, don't think about a bunch of guys who have no masters, they can remember this. Help the engineers and workers of the arsenal to evacuate as much as possible if they can retreat.

The fifth stage is long-term. Start the arsenal in Shanxi in due course, or jointly use and protect it with the Communist Party; Carry out guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines and give some assistance to the armed forces behind enemy lines. It should be noted that there will be many irresolute ones, their surrender is commonplace, and it is more optimistic about the guerrilla warfare capability of the Red Army. At this stage, you don't have to study things, we have time to deal with them. The chief of staff should mainly study the issues of the previous four stages. ”

"Sir, what about Shanghai?"

"Chief of Staff, the two of us will divide the work, you are in charge of the north, and I am in charge of the south. In Shanghai, the medical team is mainly equipped with protection personnel and air defense teams, and its main task is to provide first aid. It is good to arrange 20 elite cooperation, and it is also the main cooperation and protection, and the enemy is properly combated. There can't be too many people, otherwise once the rout, it will be difficult to retreat. ”

"In addition, to do things, it is the problem of some firearms and ammunition. Now there are many difficult troops in China, and the National Government's desire to eliminate dissidents has never been put down, and for us, they are all Chinese! ”
