Anti-Japanese heroic righteousness

Bai Chongxi's words were immediately greeted with approbation, and the Chairman couldn't help nodding his head and giving him approving glances.

But Jiang Haoran was so angry that he scolded his mother in his heart. The whole nation was suffering in dire straits, and the dominance in their hearts was still to eliminate dissidents, or to fight each other.

Of course, it was impossible for him to say these words here. His heart was agitated, but on the surface he was calm. He stood up from his seat and slowly swept the audience. His eyes finally fell on Bai Chongxi. Baba focused his eyes on him, suddenly smiled miserably, and Shi Potian said in shock: "Vice President, your opinion is indeed far-sighted, but do you know that you are disregarding the lives and deaths of the 10,000+ soldiers of my expeditionary army!"

Bai Chongxi was astonished, and said in shock: "Brother Ziqian, where did you start talking about this?"

Jiang Haoran said: "Now the Southeast Asian battlefield, the Japanese army has invested 50 troops, of which the Burmese battlefield has as many as 20. Although the previous confrontation with our expeditionary force was slightly damaged, it is basically negligible. According to news, after the armistice, the Japanese army urgently dispatched four divisions from Central China, North China, and Northeast China to Burma. The Burmese army has at least exceeded the original 20 troops, and all of them are veterans who have experienced war. In contrast, our expeditionary force, Everyone should understand how hard Myanmar was fighting and how many casualties there were. Less than half of the 15 people are left. The number of trained recruits is still less than 2. Once the rainy season is over, an unprecedented war is about to start, and the Burma Road is not smooth, so there will be no follow-up troops. But the Japanese army is different, as long as there are soldiers to fight They can be transported by sea, and the sources of soldiers and materials are continuously sent to Myanmar. In contrast, even if the soldiers of my expeditionary force fight bloody, do you think we have a chance of winning? So, you should understand why I want to recover Wuhan at this time right?"

The expressions of the people in the room suddenly became serious. Jiang Haoran’s words are not difficult to understand. Once the Japanese army stabilizes the situation in the Chinese battlefield, they can draw a large number of troops to the Myanmar battlefield. The law and order in the occupied areas is improving, and the only Yan'an troops that contain the Japanese army behind the enemy lines are basically exhausted. A million puppet troops can control the situation, and it is not a problem to deploy hundreds of thousands of elites. In this way, the situation of the expeditionary army is really worrying.

But Bai Chongxi was still a little unwilling to give up, and argued: "I don't think it is as serious as you said, isn't the No. 40th Army already transported to Imphal and started training? Or the number of one regiment is airlifted to Imphal every day. In time, they will become the strongest backing of the expeditionary force."

As early as a month ago, the newly formed No.40 First Army began airlifting India to prepare to receive all-American equipment. It set up recruit training camps in Ramgarh and Imphal in India to receive training from rice army officers. It is planned that at least half of the 30 recruits will arrive in India before the end of the rainy season in Myanmar.

Of course, Jiang Haoran knew this too, but what Bai Chongxi said was only met with a sneer from him, which made Bai Chongxi blush, and he felt that his words were a little untenable. Obviously, a group of recruits, it is impossible To form combat power in a short period of time, such a backing is actually not much different from having or not.

So, he immediately changed to another rhetoric, covering up: "I think we are not attacking Wuhan right now, but the Japanese army also knows that since Nanchang was liberated, Wuhan has been on the verge of danger and may be attacked by us at any time." The Fifth War Zone, the Ninth War Zone, and the No.40 Group Army encircled and went up, especially the No.40 Group Army raided Huangshan and cut off the Yangtze River waterway. They would even be in danger of being eaten. If there is no strong backup, the Japanese No. The 11th Army could not escape. Therefore, no matter how rampant the Japanese army was, they did not dare to withdraw all their defense forces. After all, they had invested 50 and four divisions in the Burmese battlefield, and these troops were drawn from the Chinese battlefield. Yes, this is already close to the bottom line of the Japanese army, attacking Southeast Asia with all its strength puts the entire Central and North China regions in danger on the Chinese battlefield.

Bai Chongxi's words sounded reasonable, and many people in the headquarters nodded in agreement, but Jiang Haoran didn't think so.

"Do you think Wuhan is still the meat of our lips? A joke!" Jiang Haoran said without turning his head, kicked the chair behind him away, and then walked towards the giant battle map behind the rostrum. He already had good eyesight The staff officer raised the curtain, picked up a long command pole from the side and handed it to Jiang Haoran, and the big staff below, including the chairman, also started to get up and walk towards the rostrum.

Jiang Haoran waved his command stick, the tip of the stick landed on Huangshan Mountain, and said solemnly: "Half a year ago, if we took down Huangshan Mountain, the army would advance to the Yangtze River, and then occupy Chizhou and Pengze, and control the entire Yangtze River waterway. The Japanese No. 11 in Wuhan would The army really panicked, because their main logistics channel will be cut off by us, but is this still the case now?"

As Jiang Haoran said, he jumped the command pole to Beiping, and drew down along a railway line, saying: "From here, to Baoding, Shijiazhuang, Baoding, Zhumadian, Xinyang, and Hankou, this railway line is called Ping-Han Railway, which has strategic significance. I don’t think I need to say that everyone knows that half a year ago, the troops of the First Theater of our army had been deploying defenses in the Anhui and Henan areas, and the Eighth Route Army had been operating along the line. The Pinghan Railway, this railway is no less than a lifeline for the Japanese army in Wuhan. , never passed through in a real sense, and this is the fundamental reason why the Japanese army tried their best to fight Nanchang and Yueyang to ensure the safety of Wuhan. But I heard that the troops in the first theater have already crossed the Yellow River and withdrawn to Shaanxi , entered a safe rear area, and the Eighth Route Army along the line was almost completely besieged by the Japanese army. This railway has been completely controlled by the Japanese army. The Japanese army in Northeast China and North China can go to the battlefield in Wuhan continuously through this railway. Even if we take Huangshan down, it can only serve to contain the Japanese army in Central China. The threat to Wuhan has basically disappeared. In this case , Do you still think Wuhan is a piece of meat in our mouths?"
