War of Resistance

Chapter 537

"After being transferred to the first war zone, we might not be as free as we are now." Zhou Fangjie smiled.

"I'm not afraid to tell you, I'm not optimistic about the current situation in Xuzhou." Zhang Tianhai's face was as calm as still water, and he said such a sentence very plainly.

"The situation in Xuzhou?" Zhou Fangjie was a little surprised.

"Yes, it's the situation in Xuzhou. In less than a month, Xuzhou will fall. It may not be a bad thing to go to the first war zone at this time." Zhang Tianhai took a sip of tea carefully.

"Oh? How did you see that?" Zhou Fangjie was a little surprised.

"At present, the frontline battle in Yixian County is timid. Tang Enbo's Army and Sun Lianzhong's Army have suffered heavy losses from the Japanese invaders. Now Lu Han's Dian Army and Fan Songfu's No.40 Sixth Army are on the battlefield to stabilize. Wait. Right! They won't be able to hold on for long, and I'm afraid that the Japanese invaders will be able to reach Pixian County, which is the barrier to the east of Taierzhuang." Zhang Tianhai's words were full of seriousness, without the slightest hint of a joke.

"We have also seen the equipment and fighting will of the Dian army. I am afraid it is not so easy? Fan Songfu's No.40 Sixth Army is hard to say." Zhou Fangjie also did not trust Fan Songfu's troops, and Chen Cheng's civil engineering department annexed There are too many motley crews.

"Well, I reckon that after the fall of Xuzhou, the Japanese army's front should be directed at Henan. As long as Henan is lost, they can drive straight into Wuhan." Zhang Tianhai is actually talking about the Battle of Lanfeng that started after the Battle of Xuzhou.

Zhou Fangjie also knew that the soldiers were pointing at Henan. Didn't that mean that Henan was about to start a war?Isn't Henan the defense zone of the first war zone?
"Even if we go, there will probably be half a month to a month of rest time, right? Our regiment has just withdrawn from the battlefield here, and we haven't finished our rest yet. If we continue to fight like this, we're afraid we'll be seriously injured." Zhou Fangjie said bluntly that, as the deputy head in charge of training, he knows best how difficult it is for Zhiyituan to recover after being disabled by Tangtou.

"After the past, no matter what, I will apply to Chief Cheng for a period of rest. Our regiment now has so many recruits, and most of the cadres are officers who have not received formal training. If we don't take a rest, the follow-up may be very troublesome." Zhang Tianhai is not just talking, he really has this plan, Zhi Yituan is now facing various problems.

In particular, the four main infantry battalions are facing a serious shortage of veterans. Like the veterans of the secret service company, Zhang Tianhai cannot be transferred to the main infantry battalion unless it is a change of training.

Zhang Tianhai really doesn't have much confidence in such an army. It's a good thing if he can survive on the battlefield. The most feared thing is that if he can't sustain it, causing a big retreat, it is really hopeless .

Isn't this the case with the No.20 Seventh Army and the 71st Army in the Battle of Lanfeng?These two troops are mostly recruits, so it is so easy to have command disorder, which leads to the loss of various weapons and equipment.

That kind of appearance can be said to be as miserable as it looks.

Zhang Tianhai was a traverser, and he also knew that Gui Yongqing's No.20 Seventh Army had performed miserably during the Battle of Lanfeng, so he must not allow this situation to happen to the first regiment directly under his third theater.

"It's good if you have confidence. I'm afraid the Japanese army will not be able to reach Kaifeng so easily. We still have a period of time to rest and reorganize. Try to improve the combat effectiveness of the troops during this time!" Zhou Fangjie sighed. Said.

"Well, that's the only way to go. I'm afraid the cadre training class has been suspended for two or three days. The order we received was to go to Kaifeng. And now the trains leaving Xuzhou are full of wounded. Our troops are very Maybe we have to march to Kaifeng on foot." Zhang Tianhai gave Zhou Fangjie a vaccination in advance.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to make it in two or three days on foot, so prepare for four or five days!" Zhou Fangjie said bluntly.

Just then, Guo Qiliang came back.

After Guo Qiliang entered the door, he asked, "What's the matter, so nervous? Going to the front line again?"

"Sit down and read this combat order slowly!" Zhang Tianhai directly put the folder with the blue sky and white sun badge on it in front of another chair in front of the desk.

"Huh? What combat order?" Guo Qiliang stepped forward, moved the chair next to Zhou Fangjie, and sat down. Obviously, he came directly without returning to the staff headquarters.

Guo Qiliang opened this document, and saw that it said - the third war zone is directly under the headquarters of the first regiment. After receiving this order, your department will immediately prepare for the transfer of troops.From now on, your department will be assigned to the battle order of the first theater and under the jurisdiction of the commander of the first theater. From now on, go to Kaifeng and report to the commander of the first theater, Chief Cheng Qian!Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth War Zone, Commander-in-Chief Li Zongren, urgent call at 27:21 on April 37, [-]th Republic of China!

"What? We have to go to the first war zone now? In such a hurry? But we didn't give us long to prepare." Guo Qiliang exclaimed. Obviously, with this order, his staff had to return to the original immediately. compiled.

The transfer of establishment is not just talk, more importantly, there are many tasks at hand that need to be handed over, such as the secondment of the cadres of He Jiye's political training department, but there are many tasks at hand that need to be handed over to the staff of the staff department .

It's a temporary emergency, and I'm afraid something will go wrong, so this is why Guo Qiliang is anxious.

"Brother Qiliang, don't be in a hurry. Lao Zhang and I have discussed it just now. It will take us several days to get to Kaifeng. We can delay the specific work and get the preparations done first. Now it is probably the first time. The First War Zone needs people urgently, otherwise we won't be let out so soon." Zhou Fangjie said with a smile.

"Yes, the Fifth War Zone is now short of troops to defend against the little devils. At this time, our troops are transferred away. Chief Li and the others are more or less unhappy. Let's fight tonight Let's leave before dawn!" Zhang Tianhai concluded.

After listening to what the two said, Guo Qiliang finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay! That's it!"

It would be almost impossible for him, Guo Qiliang, to hand over the work so quickly. The staff department has too many things to do, and it is necessary to plan the marching route of the troops, arrange the supply battalion to be responsible for the procurement of materials, etc. There are a lot of things that cannot be completed in one click.

"After arriving in the first theater, I will apply for rest time. Your staff should take preparatory measures and try to organize the troops as soon as possible. When the war reaches the first theater, we don't have to be so passive." Zhang Tianhai ordered road.

"Yes, Zhang. Our staff department will do a good job in related work, but after we arrive at the first war zone, I don't know if the chief department will come to inspect our troops?" Guo Qiliang said with some concern.

"Don't worry so much. It's impossible to hide the current equipment situation of our regiment from the commander's department. If they must withdraw our army's equipment, then we will listen to the announcement. Anyway, these things are what we have been since we were young. The devils snatched it from their hands. It is impossible for them to want things from our army. I will bear the consequences alone!" Zhang Tianhai got up and straightened his military cap.

"Yes! Commander!" Zhou Fangjie and Guo Qiliang stood up and saluted at the same time. With Zhang Tianhai's words, the big stone in everyone's heart fell to the ground.

Without Zhang Tianhai's consent, they would not have dared to act rashly. Now it is different, the sky has fallen and there is a tall man!
