Chapter 65: The "Invincible" Z Fleet

South-western capital, conference room of the General Staff.

"Mother, Xipi! Damn fatty! What short-sightedness! ”

"When will those people understand the truth of the cold lips and teeth, and isn't it enough to wake up the arrogant John Bull with one fallen ally after another?"

"The erector is not enough and conspiracy! Ten fat people are not as good as one desperate war fox! ”

The furious bald head made the room silent, and all the staff officers and think tanks lowered their heads and were silent, lest they accidentally touch the moldy head of their own chairman.

In the end, it was the brother-in-law who broke the silence first, and he waved his hand understandingly to signal all the idlers to leave.

A moment later, the financial expert came to the bald head.

Although the relationship between the two has always been untidy and messy, sometimes they even fight. But at the critical moment, the words of his own family members still have some effect.

"Isn't this their way of being arrogant and not accepting anyone's admonition?"

"Anyway, today is not the first time we have been rejected, even if that fat man refuses to unite, the matter of Yunnan Province can be solved by ourselves with our strength."

"As long as the generals and soldiers do their duty, there is certainly no hurdle that cannot be crossed, and now the situation in North China is more severe, and the problems there are the top priority."

That's right, starting in 1941, in just five months, Obiying has rejected the proposal of preserved fruit twice in a row.

The first time was in February this year, when the bald head personally advised Qiu Fatzi not to always worry about the matter of protecting independence, hoping that they would not intervene forcefully in the Italian-Greek war.

As early as the end of last year, the old man judged that there would be a battle between the two giants of the Soviet Union and Germany.

This kind of extraordinary judgment and strategic vision is truly world-class, and it is definitely one of the few highlight moments of the chairman.

If Obiei is allowed to unfold, he will definitely not attract the attention of Sandezi, so that the mustache can concentrate on planning the battle plan for the eastward advance.

Dragging the bearded man from the north into the battle is definitely a thing that does more good than harm.

Once China, the United States, the United Kingdom, and the Soviet Union can take the lead in forming an anti-French alliance, the outcome of this world war will be clear.

It's a pity that Daiying's performance is still stretched, completely ignoring the correct answer handed by the ally of the preserved fruit, and resolutely sending troops to reinforce.

From Qiu Fatzi's point of view, he only saw that there was still a war between Britain and Germany.

Since it is a belligerent, it is certainly not wrong to fight the enemy at any time in any region, whether it is North Africa, Crete, or the Balkans.

But he didn't realize one thing at all, if Maozi ended up and the war on the Eastern Front in Europe began, the entire Commonwealth could breathe a sigh of relief.

In the end, the bald head really said that he sent troops like a reckless man, causing Germany to join the Italo-Greek war and delaying the deployment of the Barbarossa plan.

What's more, the glorious empire on which the sun never sets is long gone. With the current strength of the British, there is no ability to turn the tide and affect the trend of the war.

Unsurprisingly, the Axis powers won the Italo-Greek War. Lao Mo even shouted the classic slogan of our sea in his speech after the victory.

Not only did he fail to help his allies defend their territory, but he also suffered heavy losses to his few land forces. Those four divisions were pulled out with great difficulty, and they really lost their wives and soldiers.

The second time the preserved fruit was rejected by Daiying, it was today.

Since the signing of the neutrality agreement between Mao Xiong and Benzi, the entire Kwantung Army has begun to move.

After the situation in the north is stabilized, the Japanese army will most likely move south in an attempt to seek rich strategic resources in Southeast Asia.

If Yunnan Province can strengthen cooperation with the other party's Far Eastern territory, the Lion City, it will definitely be able to gain a certain innate advantage in the staggered and complex battlefield.

It's a pity that Qiu Fatzi didn't care about the bald suggestion, he firmly believed that he should sweep the snow at this time.

Even if the Japanese army outflanks Yunnan Province from Southeast Asia, you can defend it normally, and the British will not provide any help.

After all, your own planes and all kinds of warships are very busy, and you fight DΓΆnitz hand-to-hand in the Atlantic every day, so how can you have time to come to a place like Southeast Asia to support you.

As for the safety of the Lion City, a territory in the Far East, the chairman is even less worried.

If the need arose, he would send a formidable, fast, high-class task force of battleships and aircraft carriers to the area to disrupt the Japanese Navy's provocations.

Even the commander of the fleet was thought of, and Phillips was in charge.

The new Far East Fleet, consisting of the aircraft carrier Indomitable, the battleship Prince of Wales, the battlecruiser Counter Strike and four destroyers, will surely crush the enemy's plots!

As for the name, it's called Z Fleet!

We're going out and asking for trouble, that sounds good, it's not going to be for nothing!

Although the words of their own financial experts are more of a comforting effect. But there has been no good news for a long time, and the bald head now needs someone who can speak good things to relieve stress.

After closing his eyes and resting for a while, the old man walked to the window and opened it. The rainy season in the mountain town was from May to September, and it was pouring rain outside the house, as if his heart was dripping.

In January of this year, the well-planned bureau turned into a farce.

For a time, the preserved fruit became a laughing stock in the eyes of all forces, but fortunately, there was no substantial loss, just a loss of face at home and abroad.

In May of this year, the huge Zhongtiao Mountain, with nearly 200,000 defenders, was actually in a mess.

Even if the outcome of the battle was a victory for the own side, the losses were simply too great. The two group armies were directly emptied, and the strength of the first theater of operations would certainly not be able to make up for a while.

After a sigh, the bald head came to the map of the Republic of China with the financial expert.

"Now I can't take care of the North China battlefield for the time being, and the Japanese army will definitely go south after the Soviet-German war."

"We need to strengthen the defense of the Central China battlefield, and the province was caught off guard by the Japanese army! Let the Eighth Route Army toss around in North China, it can more or less help us attract firepower. ”

"The other party is gaining momentum, and even I can't touch the other person easily. Next, it depends on how many blocks the Japanese and Yan Baichuan can add to them! ”

After shifting his gaze to Star City, the financial expert lifted his glasses and said:

"Takami!"

"Since we can win the first battle, we can definitely hold the second battle! After all, he didn't even change the commander, so how could he lose. ”

Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·

In the southeast base of Shanxi, near Wuxiang, a truck with a unique design style drove on the main road.

This Citroen U23 is in really good condition, not only is it polished by Li Yunlong, but even the engine and other internal parts are in good condition.

It doesn't look like a battle-hardened transport truck at all, and you can tell at a glance that it is not less maintained on weekdays.

Since the First Army was heavily damaged in Zhongtiao Mountain, all the surviving devils have huddled in the county town and dare not come out at all. This made the security in the province to a higher level, and even the correspondent dared to set off alone to send a military order.

With the above reasons, the brigade commander did not give his beloved general a guard. After a nonsensical meal, Lao Li drove directly from the headquarters to the station of the 1st Marine Regiment.

"Picked up the earthen spear and foreign spear, wielding a big sword and spear!"

"Defend your hometown! Defend the Yellow River! Defend North China! Defend all of China! ”

Obviously, Grand Master Li was in a very good mood, and he stepped on the accelerator all the way, and he could drive up to 50Km/h on the dirt road.

When he sang about defending the Yellow River before, Li Yunlong was ridiculing his fellow countrymen nine times out of ten.

But this time, when he sang about the defense of the fourth company, he seemed to have inexhaustible strength in his body, and he couldn't wait to find a devil to practice knives.

It took half a day to discuss the battle plan and emergency plan with a few bigwigs today.

However, Li Yunlong was in very good shape, and the feeling of excitement and excitement filled his whole body, and he didn't show any fatigue at all.

Half an hour later, he drove back to the station.

The 1st Marine Regiment was slightly reduced in the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, and the deputy commander-in-chief immediately replenished a group of troops after the war.

It's just that this time it's not so extravagant, using grassroots cadres from other units as soldiers. However, the comrades who were able to pass the selection were all good hands of the original army.

It is worth mentioning that the total number of the 1st Marine Regiment increased by 300.

After seeing the real combat results of the Airborne Forces, the bosses gradually rose up with the idea of turning the 1st Regiment into the 1st Brigade. It's a pity that this is a big project, and it is almost impossible to achieve it in a short time.

After hearing the unique engine sound of Citroen trucks, Zhao Gang and Xing Zhiguo immediately put down their work and hurriedly ran out of the training ground to meet their own regiment leader.

After smelling the smell of wine on Li Yunlong's body, Lao Zhao's eyes widened and he said with some displeasure:

"Drunk? Still drunk driving? ”

"Don't drink and drive, drive and don't drink! You didn't listen to Lao Huang's words at all! ”

"If the first commander of the Airborne Forces of the Eighth Route Army dies on the way back to the station due to a drunk driving accident, you will definitely leave your name in the history books in the future."

was reprimanded by his own political commissar, and Lao Li was not angry. After all, he also knew that people were thinking about their own safety, so he just showed his big white teeth and smiled.

"I just drank a small glass, and it really didn't affect the driving."

"There are so many people in the headquarters, how dare I let go of drinking."

In order to prove that he only drank one sip, Li Yunlong deliberately took out the Fenjiu given by the deputy general staff officer.

After seeing that there was indeed only a small cup missing from the bottle, Zhao Gang's face turned cloudy and clear. He waved his hand casually and said to his partner:

"Let's not take it as an example, let's go back to the house first."

"Good!"

The three of them came to the regiment headquarters with leftovers, and after entering the door, they sat cross-legged on the kang.

"Lao Li, did the deputy commander-in-chief reveal the next strategic direction?"

"Our Marine Regiment should also have a mission, what is the specific goal, hurry up and say don't sell it!"

After hearing the words of his deputy head of the regiment, Li Yunlong did not rush to answer the question, but took out three wine glasses from the drawer and began to pour wine.

For Fenjiu's sake, Zhao and Xing did not urge, but waited patiently.

As the political commissar and deputy regiment commander of the troops directly under the army, the two of them had a very vicious strategic vision, and naturally knew the importance of Shanxi to the battlefield in North China.

As long as the eastern part is occupied, it can be slaughtered condescendingly and directly into the North China Plain.

In the direction of Guangling and Laiyuan, you can go out of Bauhinia Pass and enter the periphery of Pingjin. In the direction of Taiyuan and Shimen, you can go out of the Niangzi Pass and enter Jizhong and Lubei.

In the direction of Changzhi and HD, you can go out of Taihang and enter southern Hebei and northern Henan. In the direction of Jincheng and Qinyang, you can enter the border of Hebei, Shandong and Henan along the southern foot of Taihang Mountain.

Before Li Yunlong went to the headquarters for dinner, everyone discussed the details of the attack on Taiyuan.

What's more, the head of the Grand Master almost wrote on his face that the spirit of the happy event was good, and the good news and so on were understandable.

After the three of them clinked glasses and drank the first sip, Lao Li said smugly:

"It must be to fight Taiyuan, and at the same time clean up the remaining devil defenders in the province, and prepare for the next solo battle in North China."

"However, the situation of our regiment is special, and we must not participate in siege warfare. The Deputy General Staff asked me to draw up my own battle plan and submit it to him in advance when the time came. ”

Although the outcome is already known, it is another thing for the truth to be told.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside the house. Zhang Dabiao was squeezed in through the door and looked at the three people discussing in the room with an embarrassed expression.

"Captain, where are you eating?"

"I just care about the next tasks of our group, and I definitely don't mean to eat and drink."

Li Yunlong waved his hand indifferently, and he showed the people he met to come in and eat and drink together. Then he took out the map and began to tell everyone what he thought.

"Let me first talk about the results of today's military meeting at the headquarters, and at present it can be determined that the main attacking force is the 129th Division. The brigade commander will personally lead five brigades to attack Taiyuan, and Brigade Commander Chen of the 385th Brigade will take five brigades to take charge of the rest of the province. ”

"The 120th Division and the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region are still the same, one staring at Suiyuan and the other staring at Ji Province."

As soon as these words came out, everyone showed excited expressions.

At present, the division has 15 brigades of regular troops, and 10 brigades are transferred plus some militia and local armed forces, which is a big scene of 100,000 people.

With nearly ten times the number of troops, you can definitely kill devils.

"I also said before that a battle of the level of the Battle of the Hundred Regiments may only be once in a lifetime. Now I have decided to retract this sentence, and the big battles will definitely be indispensable in the future. ”

"So how do we arrange it? I think it's better to go behind enemy lines. ”

Zhang Dabiao's idea was unanimously approved by everyone present, and even Li Yunlong nodded.

In Lao Li's original expectation, their 1st Marine Regiment would act as a mobile force in this battle. Target important passes, airports, and transportation nodes to cut off the escape routes of the devils in Jin Province.

Strive to cooperate with friendly forces to cut off the enemy's last hope before the frontal battlefield begins.

"At present, I have set four goals, which are Niangzi Pass, Pingxing Pass, Bauhinia Pass and Jincheng Airport. The three passes were the best choice for the Japanese army to escape, and the importance of the latter's airfield naturally goes without saying. ”

"This mission is special, in addition to the annihilation mission, we have to protect the railway and trains as much as possible."

"After the province is recovered, those vehicles will provide us with great convenience. Devils may jump off the wall in a hurry, so we must use our own advantages to catch the enemy off guard! ”

And besides, I'm still writing!

Bitter failure, 4:14 a.m., didn't write it out......
