War of Resistance

Chapter 1147 Entering the New Wall River North ([-])
"About this matter, I believe that it should not be within the scope of my consideration. Moreover, it is related to the deployment of Changsha. I believe that in addition to the Changsha Second Guard Regiment, there should be other garrison troops. In addition, please Allow me to say a digression..." Zhang Tianhai hesitated suddenly when he finished speaking.

"What? You just say it." Xue Yue looked at Zhang Tianhai and said seriously.

In fact, to be honest, looking at Xue Yue's serious face, Zhang Tianhai was really speechless, but he gritted his teeth and said: "Please forgive me for speaking bluntly, if the defense line of the Xinqiang River and the Miluo River are breached, we will Is it still possible to hold Changsha?"

The words are ugly, but they are very reasonable.

The Xinqiang River defense line is the first defense line in Changsha, the Miluo River defense line is the second defense line, and the last defense line is the Xinhe defense line three kilometers away from Changsha City.

If you have to use these defense lines as an analogy, the Xinqiang River defense line is a dress, the Miluo River defense line is protective pants, and the Xinhe defense line is underwear. How likely is it?This can be understood with the ass.

"Indeed, what you said is very reasonable. Now the Changsha First Guard Regiment is building the Xinhe line of defense. What do you think about this?" Xue Yue stared at Zhang Tianhai's face and said, looking very serious.

"Reporting sir, I think it's too early to talk about opinions now. The line of defense must be built well. Although it doesn't mean much, it can definitely be delayed for a certain period of time." Zhang Tianhai replied truthfully. , not beating around the bush at all.

Originally, I thought Chief Xue would be unhappy, but unexpectedly, Chief Xue nodded and said, "Yes, the significance of the Xinhe defense line is to delay the time. During this period, we can even prepare for the Changsha blockade and the Changsha defense battle."

"Indeed, the significance of the Xinhe defense line is nothing more than that. But from the humble point of view, Changsha can no longer be defended. If it is defended, it will definitely cause a dilemma like the one in Nanjing. At that time, the defenders of Changsha can slowly retreat. Wait for the opportunity to launch a major counterattack from Jiangxi, Hubei and other places, and empty out the enemy's guarding forces from the rear. If the main force of the Japanese army returns to help, we will retake Changsha." Zhang Tianhai analyzed.

"Since the layout is to kill the Japanese army, why don't we resist in Changsha for a while?" Xue Yue asked with great interest. In his opinion, Zhang Tianhai is becoming more and more interesting, and he can always say something. Surprising words, these words are words that even some staff members of the staff department dare not say.

"I have reason to believe that Chief Xue is someone who wants to win the battle, not someone who wants to lose it, right? Our Changsha City, if we put the defenders here, it will definitely collapse in less than a day." Zhang Tianhai was very Said confidently.

"Crash in less than a day? Why are you so confident?" Xue Yue narrowed his eyes slightly. He even took off his white gloves while waiting for Zhang Tianhai's answer.

I saw Zhang Tianhai confidently said: "Yes, it will definitely collapse in less than a day! Instead of wasting troops like this, it is better to put this part of the troops on the counterattack. At any rate, we can kill more enemies, right? As for the question, sir Where does Humble Job's confidence come from? It's because Humble Job participated in the Nanjing Defense War, and those who have not experienced that battle will not understand the despair in Nanjing..."

The more he talked about the latter, Zhang Tianhai felt his heart tremble slightly. At that moment, it seemed that it would be the beginning of December [-]...

At that time, the cold wind hit people, and the icy wind blew from the Yangtze River, as if telling the world that the Japanese army's butcher knife was about to wave.

In the city of Nanjing, artillery fire raged, and bursts of artillery fire came in from outside the city. The Zijin Mountain position has been lost, and Nanjing has been broken!

That cold feeling washed Zhang Tianhai from head to toe. It was precisely because he knew that kind of despair that he could understand what it was like to be alone and helpless. It was despair without hope of survival!
Hearing the trembling in Zhang Tianhai's words, Xue Yue seemed to understand something, and he said to Zhang Tianhai: "It's good if you have this awareness, go! You lead the first guard group and the second guard group to go! I Appoint you as the former commander-in-chief of the theater security force. From now on, you will enter the Xinqiang River in the north. But I want to tell you that I, Xue Boling, is still the commander of the theater security force. You must report to me in advance, and you must not exceed your authority!"

"Yes, sir!" Zhang Tianhai stood at attention and saluted, and then he added: "But what if the doggy little Japan has an encounter with us?"

"Let's talk about it when the time comes. You can deal with it first, but you must give me a detailed report afterwards!" Xue Yue said in a deep voice.

"Thank you, sir!" Zhang Tianhai saluted a military salute with a smile on his face. He knew very well that this so-called "former enemy commander-in-chief of the security forces in the theater" was actually a false title that couldn't be more false, or even a temporary position. Don't revoke it after the battle is over, but this position has the power, the temporary command of the theater guards...

Don't underestimate the word "temporary". At the critical moment, it's when the official ranks crush people to death.

"Well, remember, you must report to me before taking any large-scale actions!" Xue Yue reminded him again, which was a decision he made after careful consideration.

It's not that Xue Yue is a ruthless person, the kind who is so ruthless that he can delegate power to everything, but he knows that the nominal commander of this army must be himself, so that Zhang Tianhai can achieve greater results, and he must To grasp the whereabouts of this elite army in the general direction of action, Zhang Tianhai can't be allowed to do whatever he wants.

That's right, in Xue Yue's view, the guards in the Ninth War Zone are the essence of the national army. Let them go to the south bank of the Xinqiang River in the hope that they will cause trouble for the Japanese army, not that they will be used for Zhang Tianhai's mess It's all right—Xue Yue also absolutely believes that if he lets Zhang Tianhai mess around, if the two main groups of the Ninth War Zone Security Force are all on the north bank of the Xinqiang River, then he, Xue Boling, will not be able to escape responsibility either.

That's right, because the reputation of the First Regiment of the Guards of the Ninth War Zone is too loud, in a sense, it is almost the same as the reorganization of the No.70 Fourth Division during the War of Liberation. If a unit is completely wiped out by the Japanese army on the front line, it will have a great blow to morale!
It was precisely because of the special nature of the first regiment of the guards that Xue Yue had to control Zhang Tianhai and prevent him from messing around.

But the fighting power of the first regiment of the theater guards is very rare in the national army, and the weapons and equipment are very sophisticated. In addition, there is such a rare general as Zhang Tianhai, and the fighting power is almost comparable to that of the pre-war teaching corps. , It's just that the quality of the soldiers is a bit inferior, so Xue Yue is a little bit itchy again. He hopes that this army will make great achievements in the front line again!
It was this strange and contradictory mentality that made Xue Yue make such a decision—this time, he wanted to try his luck!
