my bright sword career

Chapter 354 Are You Ready?

"Mentors, you may not know that although the staff department has only guarded Guojialing for a day and a half, it seems to have fought all the battles of this life.

As soon as the 234 regiment entered the battle on the first day, the heavy artillery of the devils began to bombard our position, and our liaison officer also began to call for artillery support after seeing this, and the two sides began an artillery battle.

Then the Devil's plane also came to help, and the liaison officer immediately called the Liantai Flying Brigade for reinforcements.Tens of thousands of troops were fighting to the death on the ground, while nearly a hundred planes were bloody in the sky. Fighters were shot down, crashed, and pilots parachuted. The staff had never seen such a scene in their entire lives. "

Although Guo Huai's description is only a few sentences, everyone can already imagine how tragic the battle was at that time. The two sides fought desperately on a position of more than ten square kilometers. Holding a rifle and gritting their teeth, fighting to the death like a wild beast amidst the roar of machine guns, you don't need to look at such a scene to know how tragic it is.

The surrounding atmosphere became extremely heavy, Li Tiejun took a deep breath, and patted Guo Huai's shoulder lightly, "Old Guo, thank you for your hard work."

"The Ministry is not bitter." Guo Huai shook his head instead: "Compared to those brothers who died in battle, the Ministry is lucky enough to be able to recover this little life."

Looking at Guo Huai who looked a bit sluggish, Li Tiejun waved his hands: "Okay, you have been tired for several days, go down and rest."

"Yes!"

After Guo Huai led the soldiers of the 234th Regiment down, Sun Lianzhong sighed softly: "I didn't expect Guojialing to fight so fiercely. No wonder Tang Huaiyuan, Gao Hongming and others urged us to step up preparations and shorten the counterattack time as soon as possible. "

Pang Bingxun touched his bald head with little hair left and said: "According to this way of fighting, our casualties are certainly great, and the casualties of the devils must not be small. If we can annihilate 1000 little devils every day, we really have to fight one After two months, the little devil will feel uncomfortable."

"Just dream."

Sun Lianzhong unceremoniously interrupted his imagination.

"The little devil is not stupid. Once he finds that he can't take advantage of it, he won't run away? I bet that Neji Okamura must have noticed our strategic intention to surround the spot and help. The reason why he still jumped in is because he thinks He can take care of us, once he senses the danger, he will definitely run away immediately, so brother Gengchen, don't think about waiting until Gao Hongming and the little devils fight to the death and then end up taking advantage of this kind of good thing."

Pang Bingxun was not angry when Sun Lianzhong ridiculed him face to face. Instead, he touched his bald head and laughed: "That's what my old Pang said. Don't you have to listen to Chief He for what to do. Anyway, old Pang, my Forty Army Seventy-eight thousand people will be exhausted."

"It's coming again." Everyone secretly rolled their eyes.

It's just that no one can do anything about Pang Bingxun's old fritters who don't get into the oil and salt, and have no desires. He doesn't even want to be an official, so what can you do to him.

After beating everyone, Pang Bingxun asked He Yingqin with a smile: "Mr. He, Tang Huaiyuan and Gao Hongming have been urging us to send troops to encircle the Japanese army in Zhongtiao Mountain these days. I don't know what your plan is."

This time He Yingqin did not practice Tai Chi, but said calmly: "I have already said about the counterattack, as long as you are ready, you can do it at any time. Now I will ask you, are you all ready?"

This light and fluffy sentence made everyone hesitate.

Counter-offensive is not an easy task, and there will be big problems if it is too early or too late.And after these years of war, the generals of the national army have a very clear understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army.

From the July 5th Incident to the present, when the Japanese army formulated combat plans, they usually calculated the ratio of forces between the two sides at 1:[-], which means that one brigade was usually used to deal with two regiments or one brigade of the national army.

In fact, this is indeed the case. In the real history of the Anti-Japanese War, you can often see scenes of a regiment of the Japanese army chasing a division of the national army running around.

Now the Japanese army has 50 troops in Zhongtiao Mountain. According to the comparison of the previous military strength, the national army has to invest at least 30 troops to be able to fight. Even if there are Gao Hongming, the Eighth Route Army and the Third Army, the situation There have been improvements, but if you want to be sure of winning, you must invest at least [-] troops.

This has almost included all the troops in the First War Zone. If it is defeated again, this matter will be too big. Otherwise, the entire Central Plains war situation will quickly deteriorate, and no one can afford this responsibility.

After hesitating for a while, Li Tiejun said: "I think... this matter needs to be discussed in the long run.

Now that the Japanese army is in full swing, if we rashly launch a counterattack, it's okay if we win, but if we lose, we will no longer have the power to fight back in the first theater. "

Even Sun Lianzhong said: "Brother Yu Wu is right. The battle in Zhongtiao Mountain is still in a stalemate. It is not bad that we can join a regiment every day. As for the full-scale counterattack, it is better to have a long-term plan."

Seeing that all the people are still in a wait-and-see attitude, Guo Huaishen can't help but sigh inwardly, even Pang Bingxun, Sun Lianzhong and other former titans in the Northwest Army are all thinking of preserving their strength, everyone is like this. Is there hope?

Although he is extremely contemptuous of this phenomenon, but now he, the chief of staff, only has a name in name only, and the only thing he can do is to be a mute.

What the generals in the First War Zone didn't know was that the intensity of the Zhongtiaoshan battlefield today was actually far beyond their imagination, especially for the fight for air supremacy, the two sides were even more jealous.

During the three days from May 23th to 500rd, the two sides dispatched more than [-] sorties of aircraft to engage in no fewer than six large-scale air battles.

During the three-day air battle, the Liantai Flying Brigade lost a total of 47 P23 fighters, which means that two entire squadrons were destroyed.

The Japanese army was even worse. Under the strict order of Okamura Ningji, the Third Aviation Group took out almost all of its assets and put on a desperate posture. As a result of the desperate effort, the Japanese army lost as many as 251 aircraft.

It was also these three days of fierce fighting that almost wiped out the air power of the entire third flight group.

Ningji Gangcun, who was far away in Beiping, heard that the Third Flying Group was almost wiped out. He was stunned for more than ten minutes, and then a mouthful of blood spewed out on the spot. He was so frightened that Ichiro Miyamoto hurried to call for a doctor.

After an emergency examination by the doctor, he told Ichiro Miyamoto that Your Excellency, Commander, is out of breath and needs to recuperate for a period of time. During this period of time, remember not to experience great joy and sorrow, otherwise the consequences will be difficult to say.
