Bourne: Command and Conquer

Chapter 1311, come and see me

Central Corps. headquarters. War room.

Full-time officers above the division commander level gathered together. There were more than fifty people.

When Zhang Yong came in, he thought, wow, it’s so neat. If an aerial bomb falls, no one will be lonely on the road to hell.

There is no need to fight the Japanese. The top brass of the Central Corps have been dealt a blow.

So, is it stupid to gather so many people together?

Make up your mind.

If you don't sit on the podium, sit by the door.

If the map warns, he is the first to run out. Not far outside are the trenches.

No matter what happens to you, it's important to save your life.

"Commissioner..."

"I'll sit here."

"But…"

The staff was dumbfounded.

Commissioner, this is unique!

You seem to be the biggest leader in the war room. You don’t sit on the rostrum...

"No nonsense. Start."

"yes."

The chief of staff hurriedly began to introduce. Nagging.

As a result, Zhang Yong interrupted him again in the middle. He was impatient. Let’s get straight to the point.

"I only care about two issues now."

"First, how many troops have been organized to prepare for a counterattack."

"Second, when to start counterattack."

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole place fell silent.

The chief of staff was sweating on his forehead.

Zhu Shaoliang's face tightened.

Zhang Yong stood up. Waved to everyone.

"Forget it. I'll see to it myself! Everyone! Disband! Go outside and wait for orders!"

"yes."

Others were immediately granted amnesty. They left one after another.

Sitting next to the Commissioner, it was really like sitting on pins and needles. The murderous intent of this Commissioner is too strong.

But when I got outside, I didn't dare to go too far. What if you don't receive the order from the Commissioner? tremble with fear. Be careful.

"Bring it here."

Zhang Yong stretched out his hand.

The chief of staff hurriedly handed over various statistics.

At present, the Central Corps has two group armies, seven corps, and 29 divisions.

Well, there are a lot of numbers. A total of 29 divisions. Based on the calculation of 9,000 people per division, there should be more than 260,000 people. But, that's all paper data.

In fact, even before the war began, not all divisions had 9,000 men.

There are very few individual divisions, not even 7,000 men.

Battle attrition…

Add some more…

Continue to lose...

Today, each division averages less than four thousand men.

After squeezing out the water, there are currently less than 120,000 people in the Central Corps. It also includes a large number of support staff.

Almost all of the Japanese aggressors' regiment were combatants. The number of non-combatants was extremely small. Therefore, their combat effectiveness is very strong. Battery life is also very strong.

But the national army is different.

One-third of a national army division is often composed of non-combatants.

Slightly better ones, such as the 87th and 88th Divisions, also have thousands of non-combatants. The organization is bloated.

The Japanese invaders faced were three complete divisions and two independent mixed brigades.

The Japanese invaders also suffered casualties. But the replenishment speed is faster. Recruits are plentiful.

"How many Japanese invaders are there in Dachang Town?"

"Probably an independent mixed brigade."

"so much?"

"The initial judgment is this."

"knew."

Zhang Yong actually wanted to curse.

This Zhu Shaoliang, as well as the chief of staff, are indeed incompetent.

There is no accurate data at all for enemy reconnaissance. It is even impossible to accurately determine the Japanese invaders around Dachang Town.

It is said to be an independent mixed brigade. In fact, it is ambiguous.

How many people are there? Didn't say.

Know yourself and the enemy, and you will be victorious in every battle. This is a basic principle of warfare.

You can't even figure out how many troops the enemy has. How to fight? Take the initiative to give someone a head?

Are you confused about how to attack, and confused about how to defeat?

A waste of losses, no results.

"Chief of Staff, you are tired." Zhang Yong said in a deep voice.

"I didn't..." The chief of staff still didn't understand.

"You're tired. Go home and have a good rest." Zhang Yong said bluntly, "I'll find someone to replace you."

"Ah?" The chief of staff finally understood. His face suddenly turned pale.

Everyone around him immediately fell silent.

I didn't even dare to breathe.

Is this an immediate dismissal?

really…

Every time the Commissioner comes, it means someone is going to be in trouble.

But no one expected that the first unlucky person would be the Corps Chief of Staff. Absolute seniority. Two stars on the collar!

really…

The commissioner's knife is really fast and sharp.

One knife kills.

Clean and tidy.

"I..." the chief of staff muttered, still wanting to struggle.

"Chief of Staff, it's more honorable to leave this way." Zhang Yong's tone turned cold, "I'm feeling unwell. Please take the initiative to resign."

"Well, I'm not in good health and I request to resign..." the chief of staff quickly changed his words.

"Okay. I approve." Zhang Yong nodded and his tone became calm, "After you go back, have a good rest. Take good care of yourself, and you will have another chance in the future."

"Yes." The chief of staff agreed. I have to express my gratitude to Zhang Yong.

Otherwise, it's over.

This is a decent retirement. Same as General Wenbai.

If Zhang Yong is unwilling, then Zhang Yong can send a telegram to the headquarters, which means he will be dismissed directly. Never use it.

Zhu Shaoliang's lips moved slightly, but he hesitated to speak.

What he actually wanted to say was that you, Zhang Yong, are not qualified to dismiss the Corps Chief of Staff. However, when I thought about it later, Zhang Yong was not qualified, but he was qualified to be appointed!

The appointment must have given Zhang Yong special privileges. Zhang Yong is now giving face to others. If you don't know what is good and what is bad, you are asking for trouble.

The chief of staff was stunned. As the commander of the corps, he is probably about to do it soon. Maybe a candidate is already on the way.

But it's definitely not Zhang Yong. Why? Because Zhang Yong is just a knife to chop people.

A knife used to cut people cannot be fixed in a certain position.

Wherever there is need, go.

Wherever the committee member wants to cut, the sword will go.

"please."

"Thanks."

The chief of staff went out with his body hunched.

At this moment, the officers waiting outside looked at him sadly.

There is no way, the commissioner's knife is too cruel.

After this sword strike, everyone else remained silent. Getting more nervous.

The chief of staff of the corps was beheaded. What about other people?

Especially the division commanders were almost too nervous to breathe. Afraid of being noticed by the Commissioner.

"Deputy Chief of Staff!"

"arrive!"

"From now on, you will take over as chief of staff!"

"yes…"

"All I ask of you is to understand the enemy's situation."

"yes…"

"Arrange all units to actively investigate. If you fail to complete the task, report it to me. Or just ask them to come to see you."

"yes…"

"Otherwise, you can come and see me yourself."

"yes!"

The deputy chief of staff suddenly felt cold all over.

Holy shit!

Come and see me!

The former chief of staff was able to escape unscathed.

Why do you have to raise your head to see me when you get to your place? faint! There's nothing we can do about it. Only hard ones.

Layer upon layer.

Before I raise my head to see you, the people below should raise your head to see me first.

If you want to die, let's all die together.

You die before me.

No one doubted Zhang Yong's words.

Because the 77th Division had just been shot.

The command sent Zhang Yong to supervise the battle.

What is war supervision?

In fact, it means putting a gun to your back.

Come on!

Otherwise I will beat you to death!

Of course, Commissioner Zhang is not like this.

He is following me! Otherwise I'll beat you to death!

Anyway, as long as the mission is not completed and Dachang Town is not recovered, someone will definitely have to pay the price.

"Go and make arrangements!"

"yes."

The deputy chief of staff went in a hurry.

No, he's chief of staff now. Appointed by Zhang Yong.

"Somebody come!"

"arrive!"

"Call these five division commanders over."

"yes."

A staff officer ran very fast.

According to the name Zhang Yong ticked, he ran outside to call his name.

"Li Mo'an!"

"Wang Jinxiu!"

"Huang Zaixin!"

"Chen Mu Nong!"

"Liu Kan!"

"You guys come in! Others can go back!"

Suddenly, I felt like I had been granted amnesty.

Those whose names were not called turned around and left in a hurry.

I thought, I escaped again.

But the five people whose names were called felt uneasy inside.

The five people looked at each other. Finally silence. Then file in.

Zhang Yong waved his hand. Have them line up.

All are from Huangpu Phase I.

What he ordered was Huangpu Phase I. It is also the first phase of Huangpu that is preparing to go into battle.

Huangpu Phase I is a very glorious existence.

It can shine brightly.

It can reach the abyss.

You have more opportunities than others. However, you also have to bear more responsibilities than others.

"You are all students of the Commission." "The troops you lead are the troops of the Commission's confidants."

"I won't say anything unnecessary. I'll give you thirty minutes to explain everything."

Zhang Yong spoke slowly. But very clear.

Not to be alarmist.

The current war situation is really serious.

It was impossible for the Japanese invaders to abandon Dachang Town. Because this is a pivot point.

Located at the core of the Songhu battlefield.

If Luodian is the promoter of the millstone, Dachang Town is the axis of the millstone.

Losing one of these two places is extremely dangerous. If two are missing, the millstone will be pushed up by the Japanese invaders. Crush all the national troops.

To put it bluntly, if these two places are lost, the Songhu battlefield will be unsustainable.

The only option left was a collective retreat.

The Japanese invaders landed again from Hangzhou Bay. The national army collapsed completely. Even an orderly retreat was impossible.

The retreat turned into a rout. A collapse of thousands of miles. Until the foot of Jinling City. There was no chance to reorganize the troops.

In the Battle of Jinling, no national army unit was fully equipped.

All were defeated from the Songhu battlefield. They were all defeated. Not replenished. Almost without fighting spirit.

The Japanese invaders will not give up.

The national army cannot give up.

Then there is only shopping. Rivers of blood flowed. Fight to the end.

Layers upon layers of dead light. Finally it was their turn.

"Li Mo'an!"

"arrive!"

"How many people are left in your unit?"

"Reporting to the Commissioner, there are still 4,500. There are 3,400 combatants."

"Arm everyone! Even if you use a fire stick, you have to rush up! Anyone who steps back will be shot on the spot!"

"yes."

Li Mo'an replied solemnly.

The commissioner's words were actually very plain. But the murderous intention is abundant.

Others may just be threatening and intimidating. But the Commissioner really kills people. I killed a division commander last time!

Not discounted in the slightest.

Nor give the other party a chance to make amends.

Law enforcement team.

execution ground.

After the execution, report truthfully.

The family members don’t even get pensions.

It's so heartless.

Everyone shudders when they think of it.

"How many concubines are there?"

"ah?"

"I asked you how many concubines you have."

"No…"

"No? Forget it. I thought you did. If we can't take Dachang Town, we can go to Huangquan Road together and talk about women."

"ah?"

"I, Zhang Yong, am greedy, lustful, dissolute and shameless, and I have many women around me. If we go on the road together, we can have a good chat."

"ah?"

"If we can't take Dachang Town, I, Zhang Yong, will have no hope of living. Neither will the five of you. It's that simple."

"ah…"

The five people suddenly gasped.

I felt cold sweat break out on my back again.

The gentler and plainer the Commissioner's words were, the more their scalps felt numb.

Obviously, this is the meaning of commission.

If they cannot capture Dachang Town, all five of their division commanders will have to be buried with them.

What about Huangpu Phase 1? At the critical moment, no amount of issues will work. As long as the task is not completed, the result is death.

what to do?

Of course that means risking your life.

Squeeze every soldier out. All die together!

Since my teacher is going to die. No one down there can survive. War is so cruel.

"Chen Mu Nong, what about you?"

"I?"

"How many concubines do you have?"

"No…"

"Really not?"

"I'm not married yet. Just a few sweethearts. Not really concubines."

"Do you need settlement fees?"

"No need. They actually have other men. It's none of my business."

"Well..."

Zhang Yong was speechless.

This Chen Mu Nong is really open-minded.

Whatever. Personal hobbies. Some people just think this is the coolest thing.

"Liu Kan. What about you?"

"Five."

"Distribute the money well. Don't delay others."

"I don't have much money..."

"I'll lend it to you!"

Zhang Yong took out a stack of banknotes. Exactly five thousand silver dollars.

Weigh it casually. He stuffed it directly into Liu Kan's hand.

"I'll lend it to you. No need to pay an IOU. If you live, you can pay it back slowly in the future. If you die, you don't need to pay it back."

"Ah, yes..."

Liu Kan reached out his hand and took it blankly.

Zhang Yong took out another stack of banknotes. Huang Zaixin silently came up and took it away.

Wang Jinxiu looked at it. Didn't move. Zhang Yong took out another stack. He shook his head towards the other party. As a result, Wang Jinxiu shook his head.

"Is it not necessary? Or is it not necessary?"

"My wife still has some savings. She will take care of the others."

"It seems like your family is quite harmonious."

"It's not bad. My wife found them for me, not me."

“What a fine tradition of the Chinese nation!”

"Actually, they are all poor people. They are all without fathers and mothers. My wife adopted them, which is considered a good deed."

"That's alright. Get settled. Then go back and organize the troops."

Zhang Yong looked solemn.

The five division commanders then returned to their units and were busy working on their own.

In fact, their funeral arrangements have already been arranged. The war has reached this level, and being alive is considered a blessing.

"Somebody come!"

"arrive!"

"Call Long Muhan immediately."

"yes."

The staff officer hurriedly made arrangements.

Long Muhan did not show up at the previous meeting.

Zhang Yong felt very strange. The 100th Army is the new force of the Central Corps!

It was originally intended to reinforce the direction of Luodian. As a result, he was ordered to intercept Hu. Temporarily arranged to the central battlefield. Why did it disappear?

One corps commander, three division commanders, even sending a representative?

frown. It doesn't feel right. So he asked: "Where is Long Muhan's hundred troops currently located?"

"Still fighting hard against the Japanese invaders in Miaohang." A staff officer replied, "The road between the Hundred Army Headquarters and the Corps Headquarters has been cut off by the Japanese invaders and is impassable. Therefore, Commander Long cannot come to the meeting. In addition, the Corps Commander The telephone lines between the Ministry and the temple office have also been cut off by the Japanese invaders, and we can only communicate through the radio.”

"Temple visit..." Zhang Yong frowned.

That’s the shore of Hazaohama! This is the key point for the Japanese invaders to land.

If the Japanese invaders wanted to threaten the site from the north, they would have to land at the temple. Then he sent his troops south.

Long Muhan stood firm at the temple, so the Japanese invaders could not continue to advance westward.

The Japanese transport ship could not continue to trace the route.

Once the temple is lost, the national army's defense line will collapse again.

Alas, it’s so difficult.

It’s hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice!

It feels like no amount of troops is enough.

The Japanese invaders are too powerful and have too deep reserves to resist them!

But the committee is unwilling to admit failure. Unwilling to retreat. Therefore, we can only continue to waste money on this millstone. The blood continues to flow.

well…

"Send a report to the Hundred Army in my name."

"yes."

"Content: Long Muhan, I am Zhang Yong, and I have arrived at the Central Corps Headquarters."

"yes."

Staff records. Confirmed. Then send it.

Zhang Yong sighed silently.

The only support he can give Long Muhan now is spiritual.

Before taking over Dachang Town, there was no way to connect with the temple. Even if there are weapons and ammunition, they cannot be sent there.

so…

Dachang Town must be captured.

No matter how high the price is.

Even if it is...

All five divisions are lit!

Prepare to arrange delivery. Replenish weapons and ammunition.

Lots of grenades. Melee weapon. There are also landmines. Used as an explosive pack…

[Update of indigenous weapons]

[You get an oil barrel mortar (a heartless cannon)]

Suddenly, the system prompted.

Zhang Yong:? ? ?

What?

Oil barrel mortar?

Heartless?

After a moment of silence, he came to his senses.

Oh, it turned out to be the flying thunder that once appeared on the Huaihai battlefield!

Just put the explosive package in the oil barrel and then launch it.

The distance is very close.

Extremely powerful.

After all, what was launched was a five kilogram explosive package!

That's five kilograms of pure TNT!

Even a 150mm howitzer does not have so much charge.

It would be even worse if a 10 kilogram explosive package was launched. The world is really turned upside down, I dare to ask the sun and moon to change the sky!

However, this thing is also extremely dangerous. Maybe he'll blow himself up.

Accidentally, he was blown up first.

View relevant data.

Sure enough, there are two specifications.

One is to launch a 5kg explosive package. The range is about 300 meters.

One is to launch a 10 kilogram explosive wave with a range of about 150 meters.

sharp…

It can actually launch three hundred meters.

You know, the Japanese grenades were only about three hundred meters long.

Well, the so-called heartless cannon is actually a large grenade. Ignore the safety factor. Just pursue lethality.

Not safe?

It doesn't matter.

What kind of security do you need now?

In order to retake Dachang Town, all five divisions were prepared to fight.

What do you care about safety?

As long as it kills the Japanese invaders, it's worth it for one!

Nothing said. Arrange delivery.

Send in bulk!

Explode hard!

Or blow up the Japanese invaders!

Or blow yourself up!

Whether it's a big book title in Lingyan Pavilion, or whether it's time to go to Quantai to recruit old people, it all depends on this!
