Chapter 429 Chip Exchange

He Yuhang looked at Zhebo Mountain outside the porthole and pointed his right hand, and pointed his head at the baton. "Yi Zheng said: "The Japanese troops on Iwo Jima should be at least 30,000, and it is likely to be more than 40,000. It is not the 20,000 people in the information provided at the beginning. Although the stronghold at the bottom of Zhebo Mountain has been swept away. However, forcibly attacking the inside of Zhebo Mountain or Yuanshan area, our army has no ability to attack. At present, our army has six divisions and one mountain infantry cluster, and a unit of a special combat brigade has a total of more than 130,000 people. If the enemy is forced to attack, the enemy and our side will suffer casualties, x or even the heart x

The proportion of this is not enough. The Fourth Mechanized Army must be drawn from India. Recently, I have ordered the troops stationed in India to transfer the garrison to Lord Mountbatten in accordance with the previous requirements of the US and the UK. The troops are ready to go to the battlefield in Iwo Jima at any time. Nimitz listened to Song Yuhang's analysis, and then looked at the damage caused by several assault operations of the Chinese Expeditionary Force. Song Yuhang exaggerated his own damage to a certain extent. Many officers and soldiers of the Fourth Mechanized Army stationed in India were inexplicably included in the list of casualties, including those tanks that were trapped in the beachhead but were intact.

So Nimitz was surprised to find that the Chinese Expeditionary Force had only launched a second large-scale attack since its landing, extending less than three kilometers from the beachhead. The troops had suffered more than 10,000 casualties, and the number of losses of tanks and armored vehicles was even more amazing. The US tactical staff on the side confirmed the losses and battle process of the Chinese Expeditionary Force. Nimitz had known before that Iwo Jima must be a difficult bone, but he did not expect it to be so difficult to crack?

Seeing that Nimitz was also hesitating, Song Yuhang said: "Now the situation of the Chinese New Year is getting worse, the weapons and equipment of the 30 light infantry divisions that the US promised to aid are still not in place. If the domestic war situation is in a major crisis, our expeditionary force will likely be forced to retreat to the Pacific battlefield and India. Our army's forces can only maintain the smooth flow of India-Myanmar and the Yunnan-Burma Highway. The main force needs to return to the domestic war, otherwise the foundation will be lost and this force will not be commanded."

Song Yuhang's complaint made Nimitz feel cold sweat. If the Chinese Expeditionary Force withdraws from the Pacific, no matter what the reason, it will be a small and huge mistake in the US government's military policy; so he comforted Song Yuhang: "Don't worry about the Chinese battlefield. Regarding the weapons and equipment that our country has assisted, I will immediately ask General Marshall. Our current target is Iwo Jima. As long as we fight to the Japanese, the Japanese will be finished."

Song Yuhang smiled helplessly: "I think we beat the Japanese so hard that they were so anxious that they could get rid of the firewood in the Chinese battlefield. At present, the Japanese army is approaching Guilin, the capital of Guangxi with heavy troops. Please don't forget that the Japanese army has its most elite Kanto Army, the Kwantung Army, and about 10,000 occupants, which is probably very unrealistic to force them to surrender."

Then Nimitz and Song Yuhang studied the subsequent matters regarding the training and scraping of Chinese naval forces. As for the subsequent transfer of ships, Nimitz personally hopes to be a little slow, because the Pacific Fleet also lacks the latest "Goral, class air defense light fast cruiser.

Song Yuhang hesitated and said, "The ship must be handed over to us on schedule, but it can be under the jurisdiction of the Pacific Fleet and will not be included in the Nanjing destroyer formation for the time being. At the same time, it also allows the Chinese Navy to accept the rare experience of the cooperation of the large fleet.

Song Yuhang's proposal hit Nimitz's thoughts. Speaking of it, Nimitz has been trying to attack these Chinese naval sailors many times. What he lacks most now is not warships and commanders, but the most basic composition of sailors in marching ships.

Since the United States lost the Battle of Midway, which should have been won, the Battle of Saipan and Riana Islands became a war of attrition. Therefore, the US Navy's shipbuilding Jigo was much larger in history, and many of them, such as the "Goral. Class Rapid Air Defense Cruises, which became technical reserves due to Germany's surrender, also started construction a year ago. In major shipyards on the east and west coasts of the United States, sixteen "Goral" with a full load displacement of 6,900 tons have undergone the final HNA debugging.

After seeing Nimitz off, Song Yuhang confirmed the current situation of the Zhebo Mountain Top Commando, and then locked himself in a confidential room, without even Su Na. Xu Tuan knew that Commander Song might have to make some new plans, but it is unknown who was unlucky this time.

Marshall, sitting in the Washington Department of Defense building, sneezed a few times for no reason, and then called the secretary to access the phone. What made Marshall depressed was that Nimitz became Song Yuhang's lobbyist. It was actually equivalent to Nimitz complaining to Marshall.

If you have something, you can reach out and ask questions every day if you don’t give it to me. It has become Song Yuhang’s habit. President Roosevelt’s physical condition is getting worse and worse. Marshall has become Song Yuhang’s main trouble target. Now, as long as the three words Song Yuhang mentioned, Marshall will be restless for no reason, because every little thing that Song Yuhang said in his mouth is basically very scratching his head in the eyes of a high-powered figure like Marshall.

Sometimes Marshall really wants to ask Song Yuhang carefully what is the big deal when he does it?

Marshall knew that Song Yuhang's dissatisfaction was the source of his dissatisfaction, but this naked threat and chip exchange made him feel uncomfortable.

At the same time, in the fortification of Zhebo Mountain in Iwo Jima, Su Lin sat alone in his room, thinking hard against the photos of his family. In front of him was the white ivory x semi-automatic pistol that witnessed his friendship with the United States, a row of 0-inch caliber and all-metal armored bullets with bright 0-inch diameter were neatly placed on the table.

After hesitating for a moment, Su Lin raised his hands over his head, and bowed to the face of the boat. The emperor gave him the samurai sword with glory honor made him feel a little hot. On the first day Su Lin started studying at Lu Shi, he always wanted to have such a samurai sword given by the emperor, which would be left to his children in the future. As a symbol of his father's courage, unfortunately, Li Lin was transferred from the Infantry Department x Army University because of his talent in language and went to the United States to participate in diplomatic affairs after graduating from the International Department of the Army University.

What Su Lin never expected was that when he was appointed as the commander of the Iwo Jima, His Majesty the Emperor gave him this samurai sword that he had longed for for many years. Although the imperial treasure sword and various medals had become overwhelming at this time, it was a knot for Su Lin himself.

Su Lin no longer had any hope or fantasy about the battle situation in Iwo Jima. The empire's naval strength has almost been exhausted. The number of newly built ships and aircraft is far from keeping up with the loss. It has been two days since the Kamikaze Death Squad has attacked the Allied ships. Su Lin knows very well what this means!

The Allies continued to advance from the Pacific Ocean toward Manchuria. When Saipan was lost, some people in the country called on His Majesty the Emperor and the Cabinet to withdraw to Manchuria. Even if the local area was lost, they could still stick to the end. Although the base camp has been conveying him the great victory in the battlefields of India and China in the past few days, it can be said that it is useless to Iwo Jima's dilemma.

While Su Lin was thinking hard, Song Yuhang was also dazed in the face of the civil war report sent by Su Na. Because he was the first mechanized commander in 2018, he led his troops to reinforce Hengyang. The Japanese army's strategy of attacking Hengyang was in a failed attempt to detour Guangxi. Guilin, which had fallen in history, was safe and sound.

This great historical change also made Song Yuhang feel at ease for a long time. It was easy to say, but it was extremely difficult to do.

What surprised him was that because the Chinese Expeditionary Force frequently launched heavy blows on the Pacific battlefield, the Japanese base camp specifically targeted Kunming, the rear base of the Chinese Expeditionary Force. Cego shortened a large-scale battle. He planned to invest 20 divisions, six independent mixed brigades, seven new Imperial Army divisions, three heavy artillery corps, one chariot division, and two hundred combat aircraft.

For this reason, the Japanese army dispatched a large number of troops from central China, North China and Northeast China. General Nishiji of the Chinese dispatched army commander-in-chief, and the commander-in-chief of the Chinese Expedition Army was personally appointed as the commander-in-chief. After the former commander of the 11th Army, Yokoyama Kan died in Changsha, the base camp arranged for Mitsuo Shimoto to take on his post. However, Nishiji of Shimoto believed that Mitsuo Shimoto was not capable of holding this post, so he ordered General General Asassassin Kobayashi to take over the position of commander-in-chief of Mitsuo Shimoto to take on his post! Major General Takeo Imai served as the commander-in-chief of the front enemy.

To formulate a concentrated advantageous force to first launch a key strike against Xue Yue's troops in the Ninth War Zone, because according to intelligence, some cracks have occurred between Xue Yue and Chiang Kai-shek recently. This opportunity has taken the opportunity to focus on the Chinese army in the Ninth War Zone, fully mobilize the Chinese army, and find fighter jets to annihilate the enemy in the movement. Concentrate some of the superior forces, bypass Hengyang, divide the troops from Guilin, the capital of Guangxi, and attack the Guangxi troops dominated by Bai Chongxi.

Nagaji, the Netmura, judged that Bai Chongxi would definitely retreat accordingly in order to maintain his strength, and then implemented a strategy of rushing troops to attack Kunming with his elite main force, pretending to attack Kunming. In fact, multiple raids of the Allied forces were deployed in various major airports in the southwest, and the rear view was to be determined.

Song Yuhang was very puzzled about Guilin's loss in less than two days?

He had a good impression of the Guangxi army and was quite combat-effective. Bai Chongxi and Li Zongren could be called famous generals of a generation. They would never make such low-level strategic mistakes. Guilin's loss was equivalent to opening the door to the southwest hinterland. No matter where the Japanese army was, they could attack and turn in.

Song Yuhang never understood that he had turned around history, so why did he turn back to the old path if he was not careful? He remembered that at the end of the Battle of Hengyang, the head of the Fourth War Zone convened a military meeting, and Huang Mengnian and others attended the meeting. Because he was preparing to attack western Yunnan at that time, and the headquarters was not in the battle sequence of the Fourth War Zone, he did not attend the meeting.

But he knew that the meeting decided at that time that it would use the 31 and 46th armies under the 16th Army as the garrison of Guilin, and Wei Yunhong, deputy commander-in-chief of the 16th Army, as the commander-in-chief of Guilin City. Except for the municipal government and the police station stayed in the city to assist in defending the city, each household left one of the strong men at home to guard property, all citizens of other organs and groups were evacuated and left Guilin City to avoid unnecessary sacrifice.

It can be said that Guilin has been in a state of combat readiness since the last Hengyang War. This is the birthplace of the Guangxi clan. The Guangxi clan troops in the secret will surely show extraordinary combat effectiveness, but the unexpected situation surprised Song Yuhang.

However, when Song Yuhang saw Bai Chongxi's personal adjustment of the Guilin garrison troops, he immediately understood everything. It turned out that Bai Chongxi made the latest adjustments to the Guilin garrison on the 5th year of the year. The 31st Army drew out the 131st Division, and the 46th Army drew out the 170th Division to be assigned to the 79th Army.

The regiment and the 6th Artillery Regiment, the 15th Howitzer Artillery Company, was the garrison of Guilin. The commander of the 46th Army and the commander of the 175th Division, Gan Chengcheng, was the nephew of Xia Wei, Feng Huang, deputy commander of the New 19th Division and the 31st Army, and Yan Sengwu, commander of the 135th Division, were his loyal pawns, and the commander of the 188th Division, Hai Jingqiang, was Bai Chongxi's nephew, was the nephew of Guilin.

The troops with the worst combat effectiveness of the 131st Division Commander Ge Weiyong, and the commander of the 170th Division, Xu Gaoyang, were placed in the first position of resignation.

Song Yuhang knew that this arrangement could only result from the future, that is, the officers and soldiers guarding the city would think that the upper peak treated them as funeral Yu Pin for Guilin to be buried with him, and were angry, so the morale of the army was dispersed, the upper ego was depressed, and the discipline was sluggish. "It would be nothing new if five people died.

When the Ninth War Zone was struggling to deal with the heavy Japanese troops, Chiang Kai-shek was also hesitating about how to reinforce and how much reinforcement to the purpose of the Japanese war. He found that the 6th Japanese Front Army, whose fighter jets were mature, ordered the XX Army, which was equipped with three divisions to strengthen the subordinate XX Army.

Kobayashi Asazaburo took the 1st Division and the 2nd Division as the main attack, and in the Heavy Artillery Army, the 6th Independent Field Artillery Army, and the 3rd Independent Heavy Artillery Army, the 3rd Independent Carriage Army, and the 90th Independent Mixed Brigade to attack the West Gate of Guilin. With the cooperation of the Independent Mountain Artillery Army, the 1st Division attacked from Xing'an to the East Gate of Guilin, the 3rd Division attacked the South Gate of the Battle. The 3rd Division, as the general reserve of the battle, completed the siege of Guilin in February.

Faced with another independent mixed brigade of the six Japanese divisions and a large number of combat vehicles and heavy artillery troops, Guilin defender Wei Yunhong actually publicly said to the meeting of the military chief officials: "It is not possible to defend, so it is better to give up Guilin and break out to avoid being completely wiped out by the enemy."

Song Yuhang admired the meticulous intelligence work of the Military Control Commission. He even recorded the time and location clearly. Almost all the commanders of Guilin defenders agreed with the resolution and decided that after dusk, except for Xiangtrus Hill, General Mountain, and the strongholds on the east bank of the river, the remaining positions would not be notified, leaving only a few troops to guard the positions. Most of them evacuated from the positions at dusk and broke through the west. After breaking through, Liangjiangwei was the first gathering point and Longsheng was the total gathering point.

After the meeting ended, Wei Yunhong returned to the command post to prepare for breaking through and began to take action after dusk. After the meeting ended, the commander of the 131st Division, Nao Weiyong, returned to the command post, and the division headquarters staff had gathered in the conference hall to wait for him to have a meeting. Ge Weiyong said to them: "There is good news, please wait a moment, and I will come and tell you later after I go back to my room.

Unexpectedly, after Ge Weiyong returned to his room, pistol sounded heard in the room. When Chief of Staff Guo Bingqi entered the room, he saw Ge had committed suicide with a pistol.

Song Yuhang could only express deep sympathy for the grief and anger of Ge Weiyong's failure to succeed, and was indignant for Wei Yunqi's unfight and self-defeating. In fact, the most uncomfortable thing in Guilin's fall was Song Yuhang. His old nest is now open. The little family fortune that has been accumulated with great effort will be broken by the Japanese at any time. This is like fighting at Mao's house. Even if he wins, he will be a big loser who will never lose.

The loss of Guilin's Yixi forced Song Yuhang to launch the backup plan that he had never been willing to start, because the plunder of India made it really difficult for him to give up. You should know that large-scale plundering is the most effective and fast way to accumulate wealth. Every less plundering one day is an astronomical loss.

Song Yuhang was originally a little worried about handing over the plundering work by Xiao Guodong to Chang Tianfang. After all, Chang Tianfang was a professional soldier. However, when Song Yuhang learned that Chang Tianfang had actually sent soldiers to make up a Japanese army and scraped off the gold-reflecting statue of the golden Buddha statue in the Manda Temple, the second largest temple in India, he was completely relieved of Chang Tianfang. Like Myanmar, the richest person in India is not a rich man. It is not a British colonial government, but a temple!

Americans thought they had helped China a little, so they became God, and most of their meager aids were used in the battlefields of Huidian and India. On the surface, the Americans were full of hearts towards China, but in fact they were still hooking up with the UK. What they said that increasing the intensity of aid to China was just a fraction of the UK. The US promised to aid China 30 kilograms, and the equipment of the division was delayed. The best testimony was that.

Now Song Yuhang must let the Americans and the British know that it is time to pay the price, and they will pay a huge price for their less than one promise.

Song Yuhang decided to issue an order to use the First Heavy Equipment Division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force to cooperate with the Second Light Equipment Division and the Third Light Equipment Division as the reserve force to return to China to participate in the war. The three divisions returning to China to participate in the war can be said to have gathered all the tanks, armored vehicles, self-propelled artillery and tracked motor vehicles of the First Mechanized Army, the Fourth Mechanized and the Fifth Mechanized Army. They used the Peng Grayhound and the female half-crawler armored vehicles to replace the Dodge two-ton and a half-truck truck as the carriage of armored infantry to carry vehicles.

With the issuance of this order, the huge logistics support system of the Chinese Expeditionary Force began to operate, extending from Kolkata in India to western Yunnan in China. This is the first truly "mechanized army" in Asian history and even in world history! Based on the deployment of Song Yuhang, this unit emphasized speed and unit firepower density. The Fourth and Fifth Mechanized Army actually became the logistics support force for the First Mechanized Army to return to China to participate in the war.

Without the cooperation and support of the highly mobile armored forces, according to the tactical policy formulated in advance, the Fourth Army and the Fifth Army of the Chinese Expeditionary Force began to retrace the defense line, all garrisoned fortifications, fortresses, field airports, etc., and handed over to the British Indian army led by Mountbatten. Many of them were rushing to the transportation hub before the British receiving troops arrived. The Chinese Expeditionary Force evacuated cleanly. In some places, the British receiving troops saw a Chinese soldier. After shaking hands very friendly, the Chinese soldiers quickly rode on two motorcycles and disappeared in the confused eyes of the British.
