Chapter 655 Arrangements
Chapter 655 Arrangement
The incident of sneak attack on Pearl Harbor quickly caused great responses in various war zones in China.
Japan is crazy, this is the first reaction of most people.
It's indeed a bit crazy, and I chose to launch such an attack at this time.
Some are difficult to understand, but there are still most officers who understand why Japan launched an attack on the United States without much progress on the Chinese battlefield.
As Fang Yuxi said:
"If I were the highest decision-maker of the Japanese army, I would have been forced to take such measures under the circumstances of a complete embargo by the United States, otherwise Japan's resources and productivity would never be able to last for a long time."
Now that it has happened, the visionary officers quickly realized that this was a rare opportunity for China.
The commanders of various war zones asked for battle one after another. Some officers who were brave and close to the front even commanded their own troops to take the initiative to attack the enemy opposite.
At this time, the Japanese army also made necessary adjustments. Some troops were deploying defenses one after another.
At this moment, Anan Wei, commander of the 11th Army of the Japanese Army, placed the "elite" Fourth Division, which had not been spared since entering China, in the very important area of the No. 6.
Perhaps Anan Weiji didn't believe in evil and believed that under his personal supervision, the Fourth Division would have excellent performance, but in Zheng Yong's opinion, there was more that Anan Weiji was completely a elm-headed person.
Area No. 6 is of great significance to both China and Japan.
Controlling it in the hands of the Japanese army is a very important barrier, which can allow the Japanese army, which has slandered the vitality in the Battle of Anqing, to obtain safe and necessary repairs.
Once it falls into the hands of the Chinese army, it will be smooth and you can directly dispatch the army to launch a calm attack on the Japanese army.
The Chinese army had organized several offensives before and launched tentative attacks, but because of the strong firepower and tenacious fighting will, the Japanese army on the other side did not succeed.
But now Ananwei has inexplicably placed the Fourth Division here, which has simply given Zheng Yong an unexpected opportunity.
"I think we can start in this regard." Zheng Yong's recent mood can make people feel that it is obviously better:
"We had been with them before, and we got along very well. What's the name of that detachment leader? By the way, Xiao Yi Songmao.
This person also wrote a letter to me specifically to discuss the possibility of further cooperation between the two parties, of course, referring to further cooperation in business.
Of course I didn't agree immediately, but now it seems that I can agree to him. This is a good operation. Maybe we can get the results we want without firing a single shot. Anan Weiji has helped us a lot this time..."
Xue Yue also looked in a very good mood:
"Yes, during the Battle of Anqing, the Fourth Division had no mission, and we were stationed face to face with our troops. I visited the position that time, but it scared me.
Guess what? My goodness, the Japanese soldiers put the stalls at the entrance of our military camp. They can find any stockings, lipsticks, and whatever you want.
Our soldiers were picking things there. Japanese soldiers kept selling their goods in half-baked Chinese, and sometimes bargaining seemed even more intense than fighting.
I was wondering at the time, did I go to the wrong place? This is not like a warring army, but like a market. By the way, even guns and ammunition are sold..."
"Boom" and laughed in the conference room.
"Deputy Commander-in-Chief, it's rare for you to see such a scene, so you don't buy anything, and it's better to keep a souvenir?" Situ Tianrui lit a cigarette and said jokingly.
"I bought it, why didn't I buy it?" Xue Yue said, untied his gun from his waist and placed it in front of several officers: "Look, this thing is really good."
Several officers came up. It was an ivory-handled pistol, which was very finely crafted. Although it was not very useful, it looked very beautiful after looking at it at first glance.
"This thing is really good. If you have time, help me get a handful." Zheng Yong smiled and took the pistol, looked over and over again, looked up and saw Xue Yue's alert look, smiled and said "stingy", and returned the gun to Xue Yue:
"So I said this is our opportunity. As long as we open up the No. 6 area, everything will be easy to do. You can attack and you can defend calmly. The value of this place is too great.
There wasn't that trouble at first. When the Battle of Anqing ended, we could take advantage of the victory to recover, but I was also a little negligent at that time..."
"Report, Xu Yan completed the task and was ordered to return to the General Command to report!"
At this moment, with the loud sound, Xu Yan, wearing a brand new straight major general uniform, walked into the conference room from outside.
"Oh, Lao Xu!"
"This is a rare guest. How long have you not seen him?"
"Come on, come on, Lao Xu, sit on, sit on, smoke a cigarette, this is the good cigarette I finally got."
"Good, it's only been so long, Major General, congratulations!"
The conference room was suddenly in chaos, and the officers who were sitting upright just now stood up and greeted them.
If we say that these officers and Xu Yan have different personalities, they are somewhat mutually exclusive before, but under the current circumstances, they are very different.
After all, we are all comrades who fought bloody battles in the Northeast back then, and we have known each other for so many years.
At present, the number of brothers who were born and died in the Northeast is getting fewer and fewer than Xu Yan. No matter how many ordinary soldiers who survived were, they were all intimate.
Xu Yan was a little uncomfortable with this excessive enthusiasm for a moment. What happened to these people today?
I have been responsible for the liaison between the Third War Zone and the New Fourth Army, and have not come back for a long time. This time, I received a transfer order issued by the commander-in-chief and hurried back to report.
If you say that the hard work of these years has not been in vain, you will wear the Major General uniform that you have been thinking about day and night as soon as you come back.
Most of the people who joined the army later than themselves became generals, but their Northeast Army officer, who was not old, had been wandering in the position of colonel.
Maybe it is the particularity of my work, maybe it is the reason for the previous history that was always hidden by the commander-in-chief and his brothers...
"Xu Yan, sit down." Zheng Yong smiled and asked Xu Yan to sit down, took out a cigarette and lit it for himself: "How is it? Is it going to be a liaison officer during this period? Isn't it quite smooth?"
"The report to the commander-in-chief is quite smooth. The people from the New Fourth Army respect me more. This time I heard that I was going back, and I specially held a farewell party for me."
It can be heard that Xu Yan is much more mature now than the impulsive young man in the past.
"Yeah, that's good." Zheng Yong nodded and said, "The war is a little calmer now, and you don't have any special work there, so I transferred you back and prepared to give you a new mission."
"Please give the commander-in-chief, Xu Yan will do his best to complete it!"
"Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that you'll meet an old friend." Zheng Yong said that, he laughed first, then realized that something was wrong and then deliberately looked stern:
"Well, do you know Xiao Yi Songmao, the captain of the Southward Detachment of the Fourth Japanese Division, do you know?"
Xu Yan was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"You are resting for a day, and then go to see Xiao Yi Songmao." Zheng Yong took two puffs of cigarettes and said:
"As for the specific tasks, I will tell you in detail after the meeting. In short, this task is very important. You can only succeed. Don't let my expectations for you."
"Yes, please don't worry, commander-in-chief."
Zheng Yong nodded slightly:
"Okay, now report on the reorganization of the troops."
Xue Yue stood up:
"Since the United States started military aid on a large scale, my third theater has received a large amount of supplies first, and I have personally supervised and distributed them to various troops and have been armed.
The recruitment work is also going smoothly. Due to the efforts made by the commander-in-chief, the people have a good relationship with the army at present, and many young and middle-aged people have voluntarily joined the army.
However, there are still some problems. Since we have all trained strictly in accordance with regulations, the hard training in the past has caused many recruits to retreat, and some even sneaked away in the middle of the night.
A new recruit regiment under my command ran hundreds of people in more than half a month. The regiment commander almost became the commander of the bare hands and complained in front of me all day long."
"My situation is similar," said Tiedingguo Interview:
"In the past, this problem was not serious when fighting. Anyway, as soon as you enter the army, you will go directly to the front line. If you die, your parents will be in vain. If you don't die, you will wait to lead the ocean.
But now it’s different. When I caught a deserter that time, I asked him why he was a good man on the battlefield, but now he doesn’t fight, he wants to be a deserter instead?
Guess how he answered?
This man told me that he was not afraid of death when fighting, but he couldn't stand the training, so he asked me to do it and let him go once. When he fought again in the future, he would definitely come back to wear this military uniform.
I was so amazed and laughed when I heard this. How could this be a war? It was just a play there, and I didn't make things difficult for him. I gave this boy two pieces of ocean and sent him home."
"That is, you are kind-hearted. If you want to change me, I will still be very angry. I have to whip a few hard, deserter?" Situ Tianrui shouted, looking like he was very dissatisfied with his brother's actions.
"I'm right to do the task. People don't want to join the army, so you have to force him to be a soldier. This is called being in Cao's camp and being in the heart of a sweat." Zheng Yong frowned, but he had not considered this issue before.
You can be afraid of death when fighting, but you can be afraid of fatigue when training.
These soldiers did not understand one truth. The more they trained strictly, the more they could protect themselves on the battlefield, but they would rather shed blood.
