Anti-Japanese blood sacrifice mountains and rivers

Gao Fei's words made Song Xilian extremely shocked. When he went to Nanjing this time, Chiang Kai-shek didn't give him the slightest promise, and his attitude was lukewarm. Obviously, he seemed a little indifferent to the Chinese youth army. This also made Song Xilian feel a little cold. Like Dai Anlan, he is definitely from the Whampoa family. Liao Yaoxiang is now the commander of the lieutenant general paratrooper group with eight seats. Song Xilian, the commander of the Chinese Expeditionary Force stationed in Japan, made Song Xilian very excited, and he had the urge to die for his confidant.

Gao Fei's heart-to-heart made Song Xilian feel very safe, at least for soldiers, he preferred Gao Fei's way of communication between soldiers, but the extremely complicated domestic political situation also made Song Xilian a little depressed. It's getting closer, but the cloud of war still hangs over the land of China.

After Song Xilian bid farewell to Gao Fei and returned to India, he and the military boarded the American transport ship. The huge fleet made Song Xilian feel like a dream. Suddenly, the Chinese officers and soldiers on the transport ship shouted like a tsunami. At first glance, it turned out that more than [-] ships composed of two escort aircraft carrier formations were hoisting full flags, and the exciting blue sky and white sun military flag on the mast was fluttering in the wind.

Four of them are the latest Bolton-class heavy cruisers of the U.S. Navy with a standard displacement of 1930 tons. They are equipped with a large number of anti-aircraft weapons and multiple rocket launchers aimed at the ground. Standing next to Song Xilian, Deputy Commander Fang Shengwen greeted them. One side said to Song Xilian: "Historically, the "London Naval Treaty" signed by the United Kingdom, the United States and Japan in 150 limited the construction scale of ships not covered by the Washington Naval Treaty. The caliber of the main guns exceeds 150 mm as a class A heavy cruiser, and those below 8 mm are class B light cruisers, and the total tonnage is limited. %&*"; Under the restrictions of this treaty, Little Japan built At that time, the Japanese Navy already had a total of twelve heavy cruisers of the Furutaka, Aoba, Myoko, and Takao four classes. However, in order to circumvent the restrictions on the total tonnage of heavy cruisers stipulated in the London Naval Treaty, the Japanese Navy played a game. The trick is to define the top class as a light cruiser and claim it as a second-class cruiser, but it is designed according to the standard that can be quickly upgraded to a heavy cruiser. In fact, the design also takes into account the need to replace the [-]-inch caliber main gun. Space was reserved, so the various cruisers in the United States were not the opponents of the Japanese army before that. Now that this batch of twelve new cruisers is in service, the good days of the Japanese's rapid and mobile strikes should come to an end. "

Song Xilian said with a slight smile: "Japan's overall national strength cannot be compared with that of the United States. Under the overall strategy formulated by the Americans first in Asia and then in Europe, our military troops will be able to receive more and more support. Landing in Japan is just around the corner." Blood Sacrifice Mountains and Rivers 927

Fang Shengwen looked at Song Xilian in surprise and said: "Old Song, you are too mean, tell me honestly, where did you go to the Commander-in-Chief to buy a few cigarettes, did you? No more, I promise not to tell Chief of Staff Liu Qi, that guy is too loose with his mouth."

Song Xilian frowned and said, "You two are in the same boat, don't talk about anyone else, the crow landed on the pig. This time I will go to Nanjing first in order not to trouble the commander-in-chief. I don't know the details. Let’s not talk about it, and then fly to Shenyang to meet the commander-in-chief. The commander-in-chief told us to fight hard. The US military has given us independent command power. Joint command, and then our Chinese Expeditionary Force's attacking Japanese troops will be transformed into the Chinese Expeditionary Force's Japanese occupation force just around the corner, and the commander-in-chief supports us on this point."

Fang Shengwen patted Song Xilian on the shoulder hard, rubbed his hands together and said, "F*ck little devil, your end is not far away, I will remember that for you, the blood debt of Nanjing Xiaguan."

Song Xilian knew that his deputy army commander and chief of staff were members of the youth army. They were two restraints by his side. Before, he always felt that there was something between them. This time, through the communication with Gao Fei, Song Xilian completely let go. Gao Fei told him a lot of things that he could only rot in his heart. No one wanted to see brothers fighting in the same room, so he tried his best not to know some things and pretended not to know them. He was killed in the battle, so he has the deepest hatred for the Japanese. He has never implemented the policy of keeping no prisoners in the youth army. Fang Shengwen always supervises and implements it most thoroughly.

On the USS Enterprise aircraft carrier, Song Xilian participated in the first general military meeting. All the officers above the division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force participated. This is also unprecedented. This shows that the status of the Chinese army is constantly improving, especially the Chinese naval ships Li Haibo, Lieutenant General Li Haibo of the formation appeared, and he hugged and shook hands with Song Xilian warmly.

Nimitz, who personally commanded the first battle group, announced that the commander-in-chief of the army's landing force would be Lieutenant General Holland Smith of the US Army, and Lieutenant General Song Xilian would be the deputy commander-in-chief.

Next, U.S. Navy intelligence officer Misset began the intelligence summary report: "Saipan is the main island of the Mariana Islands, with an area of ​​about 120 square kilometers. The Japanese army guarding the island is the No. 30 First Army, and the commander is Lieutenant General Hideyoshi Obata, under the jurisdiction of the No.40 Third Division, No.40 Seventh Independent Mixed Brigade, etc., as well as the Central Pacific Fleet Command of the Navy, Commander Nagumo Zhongichi, the Fifth Naval Garrison, the Yokosuka Division There are a total of more than [-] people including a special marine corps, about [-] combat ships and [-] aircraft."

Misette paused for a moment and continued: "Currently, the mobile fleet headed by Vice Admiral Jisaburo Ozawa of the Japanese Navy Combined Fleet has nine aircraft carriers, carrying more than 31 carrier-based aircraft, five battleships, Sixteen cruisers and [-] destroyers are the main force of the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy. The three attack groups of our army should use a pincer posture to cover the landing force to attack Saipan, attracting the Japanese mobile fleet to engage in a decisive battle with us. .”

The target of the Americans' attack was Saipan. Song Xilian remembered that Gao Fei had mentioned it to him, and carefully asked him to pay attention, saying that it would be a bloody battle, so he had to prepare both mentally and materially.
