Glorious Mission 1937

Once again, Chen Feng used his actual actions to show everyone his strength and courage. His strength was manifested in the fact that he dared to raise conditions with the Great Powers such as the United Kingdom and the United States, and he was able to do things that the United States, Britain and other countries could not do. Breaking through the filthy relationship between Lao Jiang and Long Yun, he didn't care that he might offend the two big bosses.

His courage is manifested in his ability to do things that others cannot. He is dedicated to the public, and he is not afraid of anyone's grudges and difficulties. He knows that it is Lao Jiang's Central Army that is going south to Burma to fight, and he promises to all Expeditionary force refit.

Chen Feng's reputation is well-known in the army, no one thinks that Chen Feng is just trying to please the public, or just perfunctory the old man.Almost all the bigwigs present here have dealt with Chen Feng directly or indirectly. The word Chen Feng still has a high gold content, at least more credible than the word Jiang.

It was precisely because of this strength and courage that Chen Feng was praised by everyone at the venue. Although some people thought that Chen Feng was a bit stupid, a little stunned, and unworthy, more people still felt that Chen Feng was so noble and fearless. impressed by his character.

Chen Feng did not disappoint either. After the British government called Chongqing to announce that it would give up its ownership of Burma, it immediately sent eight divisions of weapons and equipment to Kunming by plane, including not only light weapons, but also some heavy weapons.

When Du Yuming, who was in charge of forming the expeditionary force, saw the mountains of weapons and equipment at the airport, he was stunned. He knew that Commander Chen in the north was rich and powerful, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful.

The rifles are all Mauser 98k, which is not comparable to the three-eighth big cover of the little devil.It is better than the official rifle in the national government's standard equipment. It is the standard equipment used by the German Army. The Germans used this rifle to rampage in Europe.

The light machine gun is the Czech type, with a total of 5000 guns and 800 million rounds of bullets. The heavy machine gun is the Maxim, with 500 guns.These are not counted, the most disturbing thing is the artillery, Commander Chen sent 240 small-caliber mortars and [-] small mountain guns at one time, and there is also a heavy artillery from the artillery brigade.The huge amount of weapons and equipment just piled up the Wujiaba Airport like a hill.

According to the equipment list.Du Yuming knew that these were the weapons and equipment of 8 divisions in total, but according to the equipment standards of the national government, at least 12 divisions could be armed, and all of them were Class A divisions.

With this batch of weapons and equipment.Du Yuming and the others could finally breathe a sigh of relief.If these 8 divisions are equipped according to Commander Chen's standard.The 8 divisions of the expeditionary force will reach about 20 people. Going south to Burma is not to mention stopping the Japanese devils from going north. Even retaking Yangon is possible.

Du Yuming and others were busy forming an expeditionary force in Kunming.Chen Feng was not idle in Saibei either. After nearly three months of preparations, the pre-war preparations for attacking the Northeast had been basically completed. According to Chen Feng's thinking, the attack on the Japanese army should be launched before the expeditionary force entered Burma.

On September 1941, 9, Chen Feng held a meeting of chiefs of troops directly under the first-level military region of the Eighth Theater Command in Guisui.

At the beginning of the meeting, Chen Feng gave a briefing on the fact that the national government will soon organize an expeditionary force to go south to Burma to fight. At the same time, he explained that the Eighth War Zone would launch an attack on the Japanese army in the north to contain and cooperate with the expeditionary force.

"Everyone, after several months of preparation, our army has already prepared for battle on the whole front. After suppressing it for more than half a year, you must be exhausted. This time, I will let you fight enough!" Chen Feng said loudly.

"Grandma, if you don't beat your arms and legs, your arms and legs are going to rust. Commander, please give the order. I, Li Yifeng, will listen to you!"

"Commander, our Mongolian Northern Military Region is also ready to launch an attack on the Japanese army at any time!"

"Commander, our Suidong Military Region is also ready. As long as you give an order, the little devils who will be beaten will cry!"

Chen Feng was very satisfied with the reactions of his generals, they were very good, they were always so confident.

"I'm very satisfied with everyone's reaction. This time our battle goal is to completely occupy the four provinces in the Northeast, drive the biggest and most elite strategic group of the little devils out of the Northeast or completely wipe them out. Do you have confidence?" Chen Feng asked loudly. .

"Have!!!"

"Down with Japanese imperialism and destroy the Kwantung Army!"

"Down with Japanese imperialism and destroy the Kwantung Army!"

"It's good to have confidence, but I want to remind you that the Kwantung Army of the Japanese devils is different from other troops. It is indeed one of the most powerful divisions in the Japanese Army! This army has a very strong combat effectiveness, and it has always been called "" The flower of the imperial army". Especially the willpower and combat effectiveness of lower-level officers are no worse than the current German army! So I hope you will not only despise the opponent strategically, but also pay attention to the opponent tactically! Let Minister Hua tell you something Talk about the Kwantung Army information we have!" Chen Feng said.

Hua Rong got up and said: "Everyone, our intelligence department's infiltration into the Northeast region began two years ago. Through the unremitting efforts of the intelligence department, and after paying a very heavy price, we have also mastered a lot of information about the Kwantung Army. The commanding body of the Kwantung Army is the Kwantung Army Headquarters, which is located in Changchun. The commander is General Yamada Otosan, and the chief of staff is our old opponent, Lieutenant General Naozaburo Okabe. , military medical department, veterinary department, judge’s department, etc.”

"The Kwantung Army stationed in the Northeast is divided into field divisions, independent garrison, Lushun Artillery Brigade, Kwantung Military Police, etc. The real combat effectiveness is 28 field divisions with a total strength of 45. In addition, there are more than 40 There is an independent garrison with more than 3 people. In addition, there are also a large number of mechanized troops such as artillery, paratroopers, tank troops, and aviation, with a total strength of more than 731. In addition to these, the Kwantung Army also has a large number of directly subordinate agencies and secret troops. For example, the notorious Unit 15 and the Railway Unit have a total strength of about 70, and according to the summary of information we have obtained, the total strength of the Japanese army in the Northeast should be around 75 to [-]."

"In addition to the regular troops of the Japanese army, there are also a large number of puppet troops in the Northeast. These puppet troops are divided into three parts. The first part is the troops of the puppet Manchukuo. This puppet army has a large number of people and relatively strong combat effectiveness. According to me According to information sent back by intelligence personnel who entered the Puppet Manchukuo Army, the National Defense Forces of the Puppet Manchukuo plus the police had a total of 70 people, of which about 35 were regular troops, consisting of 28 infantry divisions, 9 cavalry divisions, and 7 Mixed brigades, and the rest are all police forces."

"It is worth mentioning that the police in the Puppet Manchukuo are very weak. Although they are usually equipped with guns, they basically have not received much training. The only ones that can really pose a threat to our army are the Japanese army and the regular army of the Puppet Manchukuo."

"The second part of the puppet army is our old opponent. It used to belong to the puppet Mongolian army under the puppet Mongolian Xinjiang Autonomous Government. After several years of development, there are now more than 8 people in the eastern region, divided into 13 divisions. However, since most of the soldiers are ordinary farmers and herdsmen who were captured by Wang Ying, this unit The fighting power is very weak."

"The last part is the second devil composed of Koreans. The number of this army is about 15. It is mixed with the Japanese army. The combat effectiveness is not weak. Moreover, the army composed of these North Korean sticks is very cruel and very loyal to the Japanese master. Don't be careless when confronting the enemy."

"To sum up, the total strength of the Japanese and puppet troops in the northeast region is about 165 million, of which about 105 million are regular troops. In addition, the Japanese army has millions of immigrants in the northeast region. These can become the reserve soldiers of the Japanese army at any time. The Japanese army in the northeast region It has more than 20 military bases and a large number of strongholds, equipped with about 1400 tanks, 1600 aircraft and an unknown number of artillery. This is the general situation!"

After Huarong sat down, everyone fell into deep thought. The Kwantung Army is indeed very powerful. The combined regular army and ordinary military police have about 165 million people, which is indeed a difficult bone to crack.

Although Chen Feng knew this number a long time ago, he was still taken aback by the huge strength of the Japanese puppet army, which was much stronger than the Kwantung Army in history.We must know that when the Kwantung Army was the strongest in history, there were only more than 120 million people.

However, Hua Rong also said in private that because the Northeast is close to the Korean Peninsula, the Kwantung Army and the Korean Army are often mobilized, and some of these troops may have been double counted.However, such a huge force of the Japanese army was beyond Chen Feng's expectations. It was not an easy task to wipe out the 105 million regular troops.

"Everyone, everyone knows the situation of the Kwantung Army. It can be said that the Kwantung Army is the most powerful enemy that our Eighth Military Region has encountered since its establishment. Do you have the confidence to defeat them?" Chen Feng asked in a deep voice.

"Commander, you look down on us people too much. What do we do in the eighth war zone? We are elites who specialize in fighting devils. If the group of bastard devils in the northeast are a bunch of soft-footed shrimps, then this battle is meaningless! If you want to hit us, hit the devil's elite!" Li Yifeng said loudly.

"That's right, there are a lot of aircraft and cannons in the theater, and we haven't really fought a tough battle yet. This time it's our turn to show our talents!" Lu Hanghai, the commander of the Armored Group, said loudly.

......

"Since everyone is confident, I'll leave this battle to everyone!" Chen Feng stood up and said loudly.

"Use me in the first battle, use me to win!"

"Use me in the first battle, use me to win!"

"Use me in the first battle, use me to win!"

"Okay! This time we launched an attack on the Japanese Kwantung Army and liberated the entire Northeast. This is the largest battle since the establishment of the Eighth Theater. In order to win this battle, we have prepared for nearly half a year. Therefore, I hope that all All the soldiers can carry forward the excellent style of our army in northern Saibei, who dare to fight and fight hard without fear of life and death!"

Then Chen Feng continued: "According to the battle plan, this time our army will attack the Japanese army in three ways, namely the North Route Army, the Middle Route Army and the South Route Army. Follow my orders..."
