Anti-Japanese heroic righteousness

Bai Chongxi's words immediately met with an uproar. Most people think that this is the Lord of Madness. Whether Nanchang can be taken down is a question. How dare you set your sights on Wuhan? Isn't that nonsense?The lesson from the previous failure is ironclad evidence. With the current financial and military strength of the national government, it is not at the same level as Japan, whose economy has recovered. The plane even blew up the Wuhan airport, but this is nothing to the Japanese army. With Japan's production capacity, that is, the production volume of more than ten days, we must not be blinded by the victory because of the small profit in front of us. With a clear mind, the lesson learned from the past is a bloody lesson.

It seems that the Japanese army has only three divisions at the front of the two theaters, but in real fighting, the Japanese navy can continuously send troops in through the Yangtze River. Although Jiujiang has been restored temporarily, what troops do you use to hold on to Jiujiang? You can count on the New Fourth Army ?Even if the New Fourth Army has this ability, but they don't have heavy artillery, what can they use to block the Yangtze River and prevent Japanese warships from entering?

These questions are indeed difficult, but Bai Chongxi did not trouble him. He immediately refuted them. The New Fourth Army did not have heavy artillery, but the No. 40 Army did. Jiang Haoran's two divisions are attacking De'an. With the strength of Jiang Haoran's troops, De'an can't hold on much longer. God, once De'an is captured, the entire Nanxun line will be fully connected, and the armed forces can continue to go to Jiujiang. As long as Jiujiang is not lost in a short period of time, the three divisions of the Japanese army will be under the siege of dozens of divisions in two theaters of our army How long can it last?This military operation is compared with the word "fast". The Japanese navy can invest only a limited number of troops. The infantry marching along the banks of the Yangtze River may not be able to reach Jiujiang in ten days with two legs.But the premise is that before Jiang Haoran gets through the Nanxun line, the New Fourth Army can agree to stick to Jiujiang for three to five days in order to deal with the rapid forces of the Japanese navy.

Bai Chongxi's words were indeed very convincing, and the voice of opposition from the crowd suddenly became much lower. Many people began to nod silently in contemplation. Some people also suggested that since the second detachment of the New Fourth Army has been included in the No. They are all assigned to the No.40 Group Army. Jiang Haoran is very good at deceiving people. Otherwise, the New Fourth Army would not come out of Dabie Mountains to attack Jiujiang. There is no reason to let them leave after eating meat. His strengths are flickering, and he can even put some high hats on them at the upcoming press conference. The New Fourth Army likes this, so in short, let them be this cannon fodder.

It was a military staff officer who made this suggestion. Not only did most of the generals agree with his words, even the chairman of the general committee gave him a sideways glance of approval.

Just when there was a turning point in the discussion, Wang Shihe, the head of the national guard, walked in quickly and whispered something in the chairman's ear. The chairman immediately looked down and ordered everyone to leave the headquarters temporarily except Bai Chongxi, Chen Chen and General He.

After everyone left, Wang Shihe immediately took out a telegram. The telegram was sent by Jiang Haoran. For the sake of confidentiality, he sent it directly to the attendant's office of the government. Yuko's existence made the Military Commission have no secrets from the Japanese army.

The content of the telegram was exactly the same as Bai Chongxi's idea, which made the little Zhuge Bai Chongxi very proud, and the chairman was even more delighted, especially when Jiang Haoran mentioned ordering the New Fourth Army to stick to Jiujiang, he added the word "to lure him" , which made him feel even more gratified, and deeply felt that Jiang Haoran was still trustworthy, and these four words were enough to express his position.

It should not be too late, since Jiang Haoran has this idea, the matter of attacking Wuhan is considered settled, the chairman ordered Bai Chongxi to immediately formulate a battle plan and put it into action immediately.

As soon as Bai Chongxi left, Chen Chen asked: "Commissioner, Jiang Haoran's telegram also mentioned the need for an elite naval force to stop the Japanese navy by guerrilla strikes and laying mines on the Yangtze River. Do you think we should agree to this?" ?”

Without any hesitation, the chairman replied immediately: "This request is not too much, Cixiu, you arrange this matter, select elites from the navy, form a division and send it there immediately."

After the Battle of Wuhan, all the naval vessels of the Nationalist Government were destroyed, and the navy had in fact been reduced to a water guerrilla force without a complete organizational system. That's why the chairman ordered Chen Chen to temporarily form a division, and it was this division that made it happen. The prototype of Jiang Haoran's navy.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Jiang Haoran finally waited for the telegram from the Military Commission, agreeing to his battle plan. The troops of the Ninth War Zone and the Fifth War Zone will immediately attack the enemy in their respective defense zones, and the New Fourth Army will be incorporated into the No.40 Group Army According to the order of battle, the Military Commission will consider the proposed military salary and supplementary weapons and ammunition as appropriate, and everything is based on winning this battle.

Although the chairman gave the New Fourth Army an IOU, Jiang Haoran immediately told Commander Ye that as long as he was included in the establishment of his No.40 Army Group, all the equipment and military pay of the New Fourth Army would be covered by Jiang Haoran, and he guaranteed that no bullet would be missing. , an ocean.

"Jiang Haoran's character is unquestionable, since the promise is made in person, it will definitely not be worse." Wang Shanhu gave Jiang Haoran a high evaluation. Of course, he is obviously suspected of wearing a high hat.Since the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, although the New Fourth Army has been incorporated into the battle sequence of the third theater, the military pay and supplies are rarely in place. Now there is finally some hope. Wang Shanhu, Yu Xuemin, and Commander Ye are all grinning from ear to ear .

The New Fourth Army has four detachments, and each detachment has two regiments. However, the staffing of the New Fourth Army is relatively chaotic. There are also regiments of two to three thousand, and regiments of tens of thousands are not new. They seem to belong to the first detachment, in southern Jiangxi The regiment that was ravaged by the 75th Army during the incident exceeded the scale of [-] people.

Of course, the Poyang Lake Independent Brigade is also part of the New Fourth Army. There are more than a dozen guerrillas like them behind enemy lines in the entire northern Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Jiangxi areas, but they are the only ones that can handle heavy tasks in terms of scale and combat capabilities.

It was the first detachment of the New Fourth Army that crossed the river to attack Jiujiang last night. The second detachment was originally active in the Quzhou area.The third detachment's activity area is in northern Jiangsu, and it can't be transferred back in a short time. The fourth detachment is stationed near the Dabie Mountains and can cross the river tonight.

The troops participating in the defense of Jiujiang are only more than 4000 people from the first detachment, more than [-] people from the fourth detachment, and more than [-] people from the Poyang Lake Independent Brigade. The total strength is less than [-]. Jiang Haoran asserted that the Japanese Marine Corps would be able to reach Jiujiang tomorrow at most. The Japanese Marine Corps was limited by the idea of ​​a fleet decisive battle, and did not pay much attention to the preparation of ground troops. Even the equipment of the Marine Corps was not as good as that of the Army. Ground combat is only a sideline of the navy, so their overall quality is lower than that of the Japanese army, and the New Fourth Army is fully capable of resisting the enemy outside the city.
