Chapter 98 The fire of war strikes

Wang Peng's strange behavior attracted the attention of Shana and a group of American technicians. Wang Peng looked at the dry food in his hand for a long time before slowly saying: "The country has fallen and the country is in trouble. The people of the whole country are united in fighting the enemy. Every bit of food and every bullet is precious. The aid materials from these allies are exchanged for the blood of countless Chinese soldiers."

Shana, who is proficient in Chinese, heard the implicit anger in Wang Peng's words and hurriedly explained: "These materials were provided to the Chinese government by the United States in accordance with the international free moral assistance!"

"Free aid?" Wang Peng, who was deeply influenced by Song Yuhang's remarks, snorted heavily: "Where was your international morality four years ago? If we hadn't dragged over one million elite Japanese troops, I'm afraid the allies would not have even a bullet to help us."

Lieutenant Shana was stunned at first and said coldly: "Lieutenant Colonel Wang is too extreme!"

Wang Peng glanced at Shana and said, "Miss Shana, if your relatives and compatriots are massacred and your comrades are on the battlefield, I believe you will be even more extreme."

Wang Peng's remarks shocked the US military officers such as Major Gerald and Lieutenant Shana. They had previously felt that the troops commanded by Song Yuhang were very different from other Chinese troops, but this difference was indescribable to them. Now they finally understood the difference.

Before coming to Kunming, Major Gerald served as the deputy leader of the staff team at the Jamlan Camp in India, responsible for evaluating the operational capabilities of Chinese military staff. In his impression, those Chinese troops who received American equipment all had a grateful attitude towards the United States and also had great respect and attention to American instructors.

Although Song Yuhang's troops were wearing American uniforms and using American weapons, they could not see the admiration of the soldiers or officers. Especially today, they said words similar to politicians from an intermediate officer, which made Gerald feel deeply unhappy and also became more vigilant.

Because of this unexpected episode, the US military technician quickly ended the sumptuous dinner. After a night of intense work, the radar station had already started to start and debug. The radar antenna originally stood on the top of the mountain was hidden in the woods and was disguised.

With the collapse of the various divisions of the Yunnan Army, the Burmese Legion formed by the 6th Division, the 18th Division and the 32nd Division have already pointed to Kunming, a strategic important part of the southwestern China hinterland.

The speed of the Japanese army's advance and the speed of the collapse of the Yunnan army's troops far exceeded Song Yuhang's expectations. The fortifications outside Kunming were basically a shell, and the three full-fledged temporary trainers had no time to change their clothes.

Song Yuhang decided to postpone the change of clothes for the three temporary divisions. After all, the cultural foundation of Chinese soldiers is limited. If American weapons and equipment with complex structures are not carried out for a certain period of time, the rash dispatch of the troops will not only not enhance their combat effectiveness, but will instead affect the existing combat effectiveness of the troops.

October 10th is the National Day of the National Government. According to the previous strategic arrangements, more than 70 divisions were deployed in three war zones in Changsha. A total of more than 800,000 troops launched a full-line attack on the Japanese army entrenched in Changsha. This attack with a political significance greater than military significance happened to meet the Japanese army's premeditated attack for a long time. Chinese soldiers with backward equipment were killed and injured by Japanese ground and air firepower in the encounter. In order to block the Japanese army's breakthrough in the battle in Changsha, a large number of troops including the 51st Division, the direct elite of the National Army, were sent up one after another.

Due to the urgent battle situation, the local departments were ordered to gather and draw different distances from Lin County. Therefore, the Military Commission planned that the counterattack of the land became a tactic of adding fuel to the ground.

Facing fierce attacks from two Japanese divisions and another brigade, the elite troops of the national army were defeated one after another. Zhang Lingfu, the commander of the 58th Division, code-named "The Fierce Eighth Division", was defeated in tears after the defeat of the entire division. He cursed loudly about what kind of battle he had fought!

The battle between the Chinese and Japanese armies in Changsha made Song Yuhang be fearless in preparation for defending Kunming. The fourth Changsha War in history should have happened a year and a half later. Now the fierce battle in Changsha has long surpassed the fourth Changsha War in history! The amazing changes in history have made Song Yuhang feel uneasy.

Compared with the elite figures of this era, Song Yuhang is still very self-aware. In addition to being familiar with history and mastering some advanced knowledge and tactical theories, he cannot be compared with the elites of the times in other aspects. Moreover, his so-called tactical theory cannot be exerted without powerful technology and military background. If history undergoes unpredictable changes due to its own reasons, then he will lose all the opportunities he has mastered.

Historical changes made Song Yuhang realize the fairness of history. He took advantage of the opportunity to get unexpected victory by knowing history, but these victory interfered with the progress of future development. It delayed the events that would have occurred, or triggered some events in advance, and even more so, it would face a new history.

In addition to causing huge casualties to the Chinese army, the Japanese army's edge was gradually declining. Faced with a huge number of Chinese army's transition from offense to defense, the casualties of the Japanese army were gradually increasing, and the speed of the Japanese army's ammunition and strategic materials consumption of the Japanese army was extremely shocked.

The staff of the Japanese base camp did not expect that in just three days, the assault troops, which were the total force of five divisions and three brigades, were stalked by the attendant's magistrate, which was described as two sharp knives, would be in a stalemate, so the Japanese army completely placed their hopes on the partial divisions that went deep into the hinterland of southwestern China from Myanmar. We hoped that the Myanmar legion could win a surprise victory.

This Changsha war is different from the previous few times. The two sides were stalemates and stalked for several months. Although the war broke out very suddenly, the casualties of the Chinese and Japanese armies were unprecedented. In just three days of fierce fighting, the Chinese army was killed and injured. The number of missing people reached 100,000. The Japanese army also paid a price of more than 20,000 people. The main casualties of both sides were all concentrated in the battle between Lin County and Changsha.

The battle situation in Changsha made Song Yuhang clearly realize that he would not receive any effective reinforcements for a long time. He, the commander of the Kunming garrison guards, once again fought alone. The difference was that this time it was on the land of his own country. Since he learned that the Japanese invaded Kunming, the people of Kunming spontaneously organized a team of more than 100,000 migrant workers to support the front-line troops, and students from various schools in Kunming also organized to perform some small programs that soldiers liked.

Song Yuhang returned to the command post after a busy day. Xu Tuan immediately came to him and told him that the condolence group composed of representatives from all walks of life in Kunming had been waiting for him in the reception room for a long time.

Chen Jieyi and Su Na, who were waiting outside the reception room door, saw Song Yuhang walking quickly. They handed out their handkerchiefs at the same time. Chen Jieyi and Su Na's eyes met and immediately wandered around. They took back their handkerchiefs almost at the same time.

When they saw the other party withdrawing the handkerchief, the two handed it out at one time. The scene was extremely awkward. Fortunately, Song Yuhang quickly took all the handkerchiefs and pretended to be unintentional: "Secretary Chen, why are you so idle today, Director Su?"

Song Yuhang's words reminded Su Na, who was holding a secret message. Su Na remembered that she had important things to report to Song Yuhang. Just as she was about to speak, Xu Tuan, who was standing beside her, pushed open the door of the reception room. The representatives of celebrities from all walks of life who were originally talking to him in the reception room turned their eyes to the door. Kunming, as the hinterland of southwest China, is the only remaining paradise far away from the war in the country. As a distribution center for allied air transport supplies to China, compared with other cities in China, you can buy any luxury goods you need in Kunming. Therefore, Kunming gathered a large number of celebrities and wealthy politicians from all over the country. Although the domestic war was raging, they continued to enjoy their happy life with the gold and US dollars in their hands.

If they weren't usually concerned about Song Yuhang, the commander of the garrison and garrison, although Song Yuhang rectified the military discipline and adapted the troops some time ago, and eliminated bandit gangs and Japanese spies, and killed a large number of people, but for these celebrities and prosperous tribes, the Japanese are now in a heavy army, forcing them to come and visit General Qiu Ba who is in charge of the title of murderous devil.

Song Yuhang smiled and faced the people who were familiar with him and greeting him. He didn't know any of these people at all. However, Chen Jieyi played a huge role at this time. She was wearing a decent American jacket and military uniform, and she was heroic. With a polite smile, she whispered in Song Yuhang's ear to each person who shook hands with Song Yuhang and said hello, etc., and deliberately gave a concise introduction to the key characters, her expression was like a close couple talking about each other's tender hearts.

Standing half a meter behind Song Yuhang, Su Na was wearing a group dress of American female official uniforms that had been modified by herself. In contrast to Chen Jieyi's heroic appearance, Su Na's mature charm and demeanor radiance.

Facing the two beauties of Kunming who followed Song Yuhang, celebrities from all walks of life secretly lamented that Song Yuhang was so blessed. In the corner where no one was taking care of, a pair of extremely greedy eyes fell on Su Na and Chen Jieyi, and refused to leave for a long time.

Yang Tianshun, the representative elected by celebrities and business groups, just celebrated his 45th birthday. Just as he was at his peak, the Yang family's career developed rapidly with the help of the logistics director of the US military airport he had. Today, as a representative of the business group, he arrived. In addition to raising funds for Song Yuhang of 300,000 US dollars, his main purpose was to hope that Song Yuhang could give an accurate reply, whether Kunming could be defended.
