Bright Sword Military System

Chapter 1763 Face and Heart Discord

Wang Xuexin waited all day at the Taiyuan headquarters, and he was secretly relieved when he was sure that the devils would not attack the shipyard.

Wang Xuexin is not worried that the shipyard will be taken down by devils.

In fact, no matter what the situation is, the devils are unlikely to take down the shipyard, because the shipyard is a key defensive position of the Eighth Route Army, and more than 200 laser-guided anti-ship missiles have been deployed around it. not going.

But the devil's attack on the shipyard put Wang Xuexin in an embarrassing situation:

At that time, should we continue to pretend that we cannot resist interference, or go directly to laser-guided missiles?
Pretending to be unable to resist interference means that all equipment must be stepped back one level, even air-to-air missiles, that is, "La 5" must bring machine guns and "Zero War" with the devils to compete for air supremacy in the air.

Judging from past experience, although "La 5" is faster than "Zero War", the Eighth Route Army pilots' training level and actual combat experience are not as good as "Zero War", so the casualty ratio is about one to one.

In other words, in order to cooperate with Wang Xuexin's plan of "showing the enemy to be weak", the Eighth Route Army Air Force is likely to pay forty or fifty or even more "La 5".

It's okay if the plane is lost, but the loss of the pilot is the big one.

At that time, Wang Xuexin may have no choice but to use laser-guided missiles.

In this way, the devils knew that the Eighth Route Army's battle of fiction and reality would come to an end. The devil's total loss was only one fleet, and the other fleet might also destroy some, but it was unlikely to be completely wiped out.

The devil infantry didn't even make a move...

More seriously, would the devil just give up?

If the devil doesn't give up, will he try to fight the Eighth Route Army at night next time he comes?

At that time, the Eighth Route Army's defense line will be really dangerous.

What Wang Xuexin hopes is that the devil's infantry will cooperate with the navy to launch a large-scale attack. As a result, both the infantry and the navy will be severely injured at the same time.

Among them, especially infantry.

The loss of one or two aircraft carriers for the Devil's Navy would not hurt the bones. After all, the Devil's aircraft carrier is already "waste" to Yingjiang at this time.

However, the Devil Army, especially Umezu Yoshijiro's Kwantung Army, was seriously short of supplies and fuel when they were semi-encircled by the Eighth Route Army and lost the Fengman Hydropower Station.

If another full-scale counterattack is launched but fails, how long will it take to replenish the fuel next time?

If there is no fuel, will the Kwantung Army launch a counterattack with two legs and a rifle?

At that time, let alone planes and tanks, even howitzers will not be towed by cars.

As a result, the combat effectiveness of the hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Army of the Devils will drop by a notch immediately, and then they will become weaker and weaker.

Therefore, what Wang Xuexin is playing is actually energy blockade.

In this regard, Wang Xuexin guessed correctly. At this time, Umezu Yoshijiro was having a headache for fuel.

Other materials are fine, the devils can plunder them from the common people.

But the common people don't have fuel oil, and the Kwantung Army couldn't find it even if they wanted to.

Prior to this, the fuel for "Manchukuo" had been transported from Southeast Asia to Dalian and then transported to the entire Northeast by railway lines.

After Dalian was captured by the Eighth Route Army, fuel could only be transported from Bangzi.

But transporting from Bangzi is because of the long distance and underdeveloped transportation. Another point is that there are still many guerrillas under the command of the Eighth Route Army fighting guerrillas in that area.

The result is that the Kwantung Army can get less than one-third of the usual amount of fuel.

After living frugally for more than a month, he managed to scrape together some fuel, and Umezu Yoshijiro planned to use all of it for this counterattack.

Moreover, Yoshijiro Umezu had only recently learned that the fuel supply would be even lower.

This is not because of the difficulty in the transportation of sticks, but because the eagle sauce is attacking the Philippines, and the empire's fuel transportation line from Southeast Asia has basically been cut off.

Umezu Yoshijiro called Tokyo more than once: "Our cars have basically become decorations, in order to save fuel for tanks and armored vehicles, but if this continues, we may not even be able to drive tanks!"

The Tokyo side replied unceremoniously: "Now even Tokyo is short of fuel. If you want fuel, then win this battle!"

Therefore, Umezu Yoshijiro pinned almost all his hopes on this battle.

After winning the battle, the Kwantung Army will be able to get in touch with the North China Front Army, and then obtain fuel from land.

After losing the battle, the Kwantung Army still has more than [-] troops, but it doesn't even have a chariot that can move. How can it fight the Eighth Route Army then?
Therefore, Umezu Yoshijiro worked hard for this battle.

He put the direction of counterattack on Dandong and Donggang.

In this direction, the Eighth Route Army formed a salient due to its previous attack on Tonghua.

Once the fight started, the Kwantung Army would counterattack from north to south, the reinforcements from the direction of Bangzi would attack from south to north, and the navy would cut off the Eighth Route Army's supply lines and retreat routes, thus completely encircling and annihilating the Eighth Route Army.

Then, under the coordination of naval artillery and transportation, the imperial army can fight all the way along the coastline to Dalian...

Perfect plan!
But what made Umezu Yoshijiro unhappy was that the navy didn't pay attention to him as a general at all, and launched an attack as soon as he came up, and he didn't listen to the command...

At this moment, the communication soldier reported: "Your Excellency, the pig's mouth will call, and he said that he will cooperate with our army to attack Donggang!"

"Really?" Umezu Yoshijiro's eyes lit up. He still couldn't believe it was true. He took the telegram and read it twice before he was sure it was true.

"Inoguchi-kun finally figured it out!" Umezu Yoshijiro said gratifiedly: "This battle is not only in the interests of the Kwantung Army, but also concerns the life and death of the United Fleet. The two armies should work together to fight the enemy!"

Then Yoshijiro Umezu confidently ordered: "Call back: Two days later, at seven o'clock in the morning, launch an attack on the Eighth Route Army on time, and everything will go according to plan!"

"Yes!"

What Umezu Yoshijiro didn't know was that Toshihei Inoguchi didn't "figure it out" as he thought.

The reason why Toshihei Inoguchi was willing to cooperate with the army was simply to attract the Eighth Route Army fleet to fight in the waters near Donggang.

As for the interests of the United Fleet, Toshihei Inoguchi is not so urgent.

There is no other reason, and the Kwantung Army may have no other choice. They can only get through the land fuel channel by driving the Eighth Route Army out of "Manchukuo".

Not so with the Navy.

Without the port of Dalian, wouldn't the navy be able to stop in Shanghai?

The land fuel channel there is already unobstructed, and a part of it can still be transported by sea.

From this we can also see the contradiction between the devil's navy and the army.

Because in the long run, the Devils United Fleet will definitely lose its command of the sea under the attack of the Yingjiang Fleet, and the best choice is to help defend Dalian and echo the main island.

But most of the devil commanders are good at tactics rather than strategy, and few people can see this clearly!
