The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 333 Little People From Small Places
Gao Jiu saw the situation of the enemy and the enemy marked on the map, and he could see that although he had provided the Japanese army's troop deployment and attack route, the fifth theater and the ninth theater were basically the same as the historical troop deployment.

It is also understandable that due to the constraints of internal factions and transportation conditions, it is only possible to make such a combat deployment.

Another reason is that the Japanese army's combat effectiveness is strong, and the initiative of the battle is in the hands of the Japanese army.

In the Battle of Wuhan, the national army invested 110 million people, and the Japanese army invested 30 people. In terms of military strength, it seems that the national army has the upper hand.But Japan is a modern (at that time) industrial power, and the equipment and training of its troops far exceeds that of the national army.The Japanese army invested more than 137 modern combat aircraft and 50 combat ships. The national army only had 1 old combat ships, and the tonnage was only 10/200 of the Japanese ships. There were 1 aircraft, of which 3/[-] could not take off. Can be used for parts disassembly.

With the support of strong firepower, the Japanese army was able to attack and advance according to their predetermined offensive route, occupying the initiative on the battlefield, and the national army was not allowed to follow the footsteps of the Japanese army and make such adjustments in its strength.

Some things are not something you know in advance, you can change the ending.For example, if the United States wants to attack Iraq, its aircraft carrier is parked on the sea, and the deployment of troops can be said to be basically transparent, but Iraq still cannot avoid failure, and the disparity in strength between the two sides is too great.

Although the soldiers of the national army who participated in the war fought bravely, they could only achieve such a result in the face of the absolute strength gap.

What Wang Jindong said made sense. Gao Jiu was indeed unable to participate in the strategic and operational deployments.No matter how good the plan is, the generals of the national army will not obey Gao Jiu's command, and the campaign plan is useless.

There was a famous incident during the Battle of Wuhan, which was the fall of the Madang Fortress.

The Madang Fortress was designed by a German military consultant and operated by the national army for several months. It cost a lot of money and was extremely strong. It was a strong fortress to stop the Japanese navy. The Military Commission placed high hopes on it, believing that it could stop the Japanese army from attacking for at least a month.

After capturing Anqing, the Japanese wave field detachment continued to travel westward along the Yangtze River on naval ships, and arrived outside the blockade of Jiangfang Fortress Madang in late June.

The defenders near the Madang Fortress are Li Yunheng's 16th Army. Two weeks ago, Li Yunheng didn't know which muscle was wrong. The enemy even opened an "Anti-Japanese Military and Political University" for two weeks. On June 6th, Li Yunheng held a grand graduation ceremony with extravagance, and invited officers at all levels of the 24th Army and local gentry to participate.The Japanese army must have obtained this information in advance, so in the early morning of June 16, they successfully landed in Dongliu, the defense line of the 6th Army, and then successfully captured Xiangshan, Xiangkou and other places where they were neither prepared nor commanded by a commander.

Fortunately, the 2nd Battalion of the Marine Corps, which defended the core position of Changshan, Madang Fortress, did not send anyone to attend the graduation ceremony.Under the command of the commander-in-chief Bao Changyi, the 2nd Brigade resisted tenaciously and repelled three large-scale group charges of the Bo Tian Detachment.

Bao Changyi's side played in the dark, while Li Yunheng's graduation ceremony was held in a grand manner. After speaking, they had dinner and drank a lot.Seeing that the 16th Army could not be counted on for the time being, Bao Changyi hurriedly sent a report to Xie Zhegang, his old boss in Wuhan.Xie Zhe was surprised when he saw the telegram, and immediately reported it to the Military Commission.

The Military Commission read the telegram sent by Xie Zhegang, and ordered Xue Weiying, the commander of the 167th Division stationed in Pengze, to immediately lead his troops to reinforce Changshan by road.Li Yunheng deliberately delayed, and ordered Xue Weiying, the commander of the 167th division, to take a small path.

Xue Weiying had a conflict with the commander of the war zone. He thought for a long time, and finally chose to take the path, which delayed the fighter.After Bao Changyi's No. 2 Brigade persisted for two days, more than half of the casualties had been lost, and the artillery shells had also been fired.In order to avoid the annihilation of the whole army, the 2nd Brigade had to withdraw from the position.After the Japanese army occupied the Changshan position, the Madang Fort was also lost.

In the end, Li Yunheng and Xue Weiying were shot dead by the Military Commission.After the loss of the Madang Fortress, the national army fell into a more passive situation in the battle.

Senior generals like Li Yunheng and Xue Weiying didn't even listen to the orders of the Military Commission, so what role could Gao Jiu play?

What Gao Jiu can do is to fulfill his responsibilities as an anti-Japanese fighter in specific battles.He secretly made up his mind that he would not express his opinion on the issue of military deployment, and he could solve some practical difficulties for them according to the requirements of the fifth theater.

Seeing Gao Jiu groaning in front of the map, Director Feng asked, "Mr. Gao, do you think there are any flaws in the deployment of the ninth war zone?"

Since Gao Jiu couldn't change the deployment of the battle, there was no need for him to express different opinions on it and offend a large number of people for no reason.

You know, how many staff members and senior generals worked hard to formulate such a large-scale campaign plan.Wouldn't it be uncomfortable to deny other people's battle plan?
Gao Jiu said: "The deployment of the campaign is very good. As long as the ministries can complete their tasks according to the planned deployment of the campaign, the Battle of Wuhan will definitely achieve great results."

There is something in Gao Jiu's words, which means that the deployment of the campaign is one thing, but the specific execution of each unit is another.Moreover, did Gao Jiu say that the Battle of Wuhan would be the final victory, only that it would achieve great results.His attitude has been very clear. In fact, he questioned the implementation of the Ninth War Zone's war epidemic plan.

Director Feng was very clear about the internal affairs of the Ninth War Zone, and he understood Gao Jiu's meaning.So he asked Lin Yanni to accompany Gao Jiu, and he went to report to the chief of staff by himself.

After a while, Director Feng came back, and he said that the chief of staff still asked Gao Jiu to go over and talk in detail.

Accompanied by Director Feng and Lin Yanni, Gao Jiu came to the combat conference room of the Fifth Theater Command.In the conference room, there are the chief of staff, the deputy chief of staff, and more than a dozen senior staff members, all of whom are the makers of the campaign plan.Seeing how young Gao Jiu was, everyone was very surprised.

After exchanging pleasantries, the chief of staff asked Gao Jiu to comment on the campaign plan.

Gao Jiu's reputation was too great, the senior generals present and those officers all stared at Gao Jiu closely, worried that Gao Jiu would find out the flaws in their campaign plan, and it would appear that they were very incompetent.

Gao Jiu said: "Just now I have read the battle plan and troop deployment in the military intelligence department, and I think it is completely correct."

After Gao Jiu finished speaking, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They felt that Gao Jiu was sensible, which added to their goodwill towards him.However, they also vaguely believed in their hearts that Gao Jiu was just a small person from a small place who could only express opinions on local issues and was helpless in large-scale campaign plans, so they couldn't help but despise him in their hearts.

Gao Jiu didn't care about the thoughts of these generals at all, and he didn't want to deal too much with these people.It's just that as an anti-Japanese fighter, he is willing to do his part.

No matter what, Gao Jiu still won the goodwill of the generals in the fifth war zone, and the combat conference room was filled with a relaxed and happy atmosphere.

The deputy chief of staff who went to the airport to greet Gao Jiu said sincerely: "Mr. Gao, the battle in Wuhan has reached this stage, and the battle situation has changed a lot. I still ask you to put forward your precious opinions on the development of the next battle." Opinion."

For the Battle of Wuhan, Gao Jiu really wanted to play a role in it, and it would be a good thing to be able to eliminate more Japanese troops.Here, his next actions still need the support of these senior generals, so he cannot let these generals underestimate him.

Therefore, based on historical data related to the Battle of Wuhan, he pointed out several routes where the Japanese army was about to attack.The Japanese army adopted sneak attack tactics in these places, which was beyond the prediction of the generals present.

The Chief of Operations said with some doubts: "The Japanese army did not go north to attack Nanchang, but took the south route? This is unlikely, right? The south route is the area where the water goes to the rice fields. How will their mechanized troops act?"

Gao Jiu knew that he could not convince these senior officers, so he smiled lightly and stopped expressing his opinion.

The chief of staff has a good impression of Gao Jiu, and he believes that Gao Jiu will not be aimless.But these things have not been confirmed, and the deployment of troops cannot be adjusted because of this. He decided to observe Gao Jiu's prediction before making a decision.

Gao Jiu saw that there was nothing to say, so he bid farewell.Before leaving, he said: "I will stay in Wuhan during this time. If you need anything, you can inform Major Lin and ask her to contact me."

After Gao Jiu left, the chief of staff and deputy chief of staff also left the war room.The staff members talked a lot, and some people said: "Although this Gao Jiu is very good at fighting, he has no experience in commanding large troops. He is good at commanding some small battles. He can't come up with any brilliant insights in terms of strategy and battle." .”

Another staff officer said: "I think so too. I heard that the Taohuashan guerrillas are just a small unit, at most only a few hundred people. Gao Jiu is so young, and has never fought any major battles. I can't say anything about the large corps' operations. What opinion, that is also very normal."

A small staff officer said: "I haven't heard that he fought any big battles. All he did was sneak attacks, ambushes and other battles. Naturally, he has no experience in fighting with large corps."

As the saying goes, if a staff officer doesn't have a commander, he won't fart.It's no wonder that what these staff officers can do is to play some role in formulating combat plans.For Gao Jiu to have such a great reputation at such a young age, envy, jealousy and hatred are inevitable.It's normal for everyone to make complaints and vent the sadness in their hearts.

Gao Jiu didn't stay at the Military Intelligence Department, and accompanied by Lin Yanni, he drove back to the Myers Hotel.

On the way, Gao Jiu said: "Sister! This time I come to Wuhan, I need your help with many things."

Lin Yanni smiled sweetly, and said playfully, "Ninth Brother, I will help if I'm busy, but how can you thank me?"

Gao Jiu smiled and said, "What do you want?"

Lin Yanni smiled and said, "Guess."

Gao Jiu said: "I don't guess. As the saying goes, a woman has a needle in her heart. I won't be fooled by you. Just ask what you want."

Of course Lin Yanni knew what she wanted most, but she would not say it directly.She thought for a while and said, "I want you to accompany me to go shopping, watch movies, dance, drink coffee, and moreover, I want you to visit my house."

Gao Jiu smiled and said, "I'll listen to you."

After the two chatted for a few more words, Lin Yanni still couldn't help asking: "The Miss Li who came with you looks very familiar to you. Did you know him a long time ago?"

Gao Jiu said: "She is my savior. I almost starved to death on the side of the road back then. It was his father who rescued me. Later, I worked as a long-term worker in her family and became a driver for her."

"That's it." Lin Yanni said with emotion, and stopped talking about this topic.She said: "There is still time now, you can send me to the Army General Hospital, I will go to the old man who brought you to contact the eye surgery."

Gao Jiu nodded, turned right at the intersection ahead, and drove towards the Army General Hospital.

Myers Hotel.

In Carter Rogers' room, Xiao Yatong and Rogers were talking.

Xiao Yatong's English level is not high, but Rogers' Chinese is not bad, and the two can communicate normally.

Xiao Yatong is very familiar with industry and commerce. She is very interested in the large-scale industrial model of the United States, and humbly asks Rogers for advice. Rogers also has a good impression of this beautiful Chinese woman and answers her questions. They all expressed their appreciation for their ability to accept, and believed that dealing with each other in the United States in the future would definitely be a good experience.

After talking about business issues, their topic turned to issues of common concern, and they started talking about Gao Jiu.

Rogers asked about the relationship between Xiao Yatong and Gao Jiu. Xiao Yatong was not worried that Rogers would reveal the secrets between her and Gao Jiu, so she put the relationship between herself and Gao Jiu apart from her real identity in Jinan. Tell Rogers all about it.

Rogers marveled at the experience between them. He said that after returning to the United States, he would help Xiao Yatong find out where Gao Jiu's parents and family were in the United States.

Rogers already understood the relationship between Gao Jiu and Xiao Yatong, and he sincerely praised: "Mr. Gao is one of the best young people I have ever met. Such a character is rare even in our country. I said why is he so good, it turns out that he is from the United States.”

Xiao Yatong was also very happy to see Rogers admiring Gao Jiu so much.However, she felt a little uncomfortable because Rogers believed that Gao Jiu was from the United States, so he was so smart.She really wanted to refute Rogers, but Gao Jiu admitted that he grew up in the United States, which made Xiao Yatong speechless.

Seeing Rogers' proud look, she said lightly, "Even though Ah Jiu grew up in the United States, he is still Chinese in his bones."

Army General Hospital.

Gao Jiu accompanied Lin Yanni to the Army General Hospital, and she immediately found the director of the Army General Hospital. The director was very familiar with Lin Yanni's father, and immediately sent someone to call the director of the ophthalmology department. Gao Jiu called the hotel, Let Jia Liu and others send Grandma Chen to the Army General Hospital.

After a personal examination by the director of the ophthalmology department, they believed that Grandma Chen's eyes had not suffered serious lesions, and they were confident that through surgery, Grandma Chen's eyesight could be restored to a certain extent.

After making arrangements for Grandma Chen to be hospitalized, Gao Jiu, Lin Yanni and the others returned to the Messis Hotel.

In the following days, Rogers was responsible for handling the relevant documents for Xiao Yatong and others to go to the United States. Lin Yanni purchased related equipment for the arsenal for Gao Jiu, and accompanied Gao Jiu to the special radio training class, and visited the Taohuashan guerrillas sent to learn radio communication. Technique Wang Yuling et al.

On the outskirts of Nanchang.

On a stormy night, in the muddy rice fields, a large number of Japanese soldiers in raincoats were trudging hard.

In order to achieve the suddenness of the battle, the Japanese army chose to march from the water to the rice fields to Nanchang in bad weather.

The Japanese are very smart, they are good at learning and have a strong creative ability.Although they did not carry tanks, armored vehicles and heavy artillery this time, they carried a lot of Type [-] infantry artillery. They disassembled the cannons and transported them separately. A large amount of ammunition and other materials were placed on the two raised wooden boards. Like a sled, it is pulled by a toma for transport.Although this method is so simple, it can fully guarantee the transportation capacity of the Japanese army, thus ensuring the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army.

This morning, the duty room of the fifth station theater headquarters received an urgent telegram from the Nanchang defenders, saying that the Japanese army did not take the convenient north road, but unexpectedly attacked Nanchang from the south road, and now it has appeared outside Nanchang city .

The senior generals who hurried to the war room and the staff members looked at each other in blank dismay: the matter was indeed hit by Gao Jiuyan.
