Anti-Japanese Special Forces Through Time and Space

Chapter 50 Wuhan Meeting ([-])

In a blink of an eye, in late May of 1938 (the 27th year of the Republic of China), Zhang Lieyang took Chiang Kai-shek's warrant and brought the special forces to the Wuhan headquarters!

In the headquarters, Zhang Lieyang took out Chiang Kai-shek's warrant in front of Chen Cheng, Li Zongren, and Bai Chongxi, and said: "My troops will take over the defenders in Tongcheng, Huoshan, Lu'an, Gushi, and Chunheji!"

After Chen Cheng, Li Zongren, and Bai Chongxi looked at Zhang Lieyang's warrant, they all nodded helplessly. Chen Cheng looked at Zhang Lieyang suspiciously and asked, "Aren't you afraid that your troops will be wiped out?"

Zhang Lieyang smiled and replied: "As long as the devils are dealt with, I don't care even if my entire army is wiped out!" Zhang Lieyang took out another warrant and said, "I need a truckload of mortars for every place." Shells and three truckloads of bullets and grenades!"

Seeing the warrants constantly appearing in Zhang Lieyang's hands, Chen Cheng and the three of them were startled.At this time, Li Zongren seemed to think of something and asked: "In the middle of March this year, did your ministry participate in the Taierzhuang Battle?"

"Yes! At that time, the commissioner gave us the order to wipe out the Tenth Division of Devils! But I didn't expect that I would completely eliminate them with only one division!" Zhang Lieyang said indifferently.Hearing Zhang Lieyang's words, the three of them suddenly looked like they had their own ghosts in their hearts.

Chen Cheng was thinking: "Can Zhang Lieyang and his new No.13 Army be retained through Song Meiling's relationship!"

Li Zongren was thinking: "Lao Jiang now has such a trump card in his hand, his position will be more stable!"

Little Zhuge Bai Chongxi was thinking: "If we wait until Little Japan is finished and Lao Jiang uses this army to deal with us, we won't be able to defeat them! It seems that it is better to let him fight it out now!"

After a while, Chen Cheng came back to his senses and asked with a smile: "How many people are there in your army, can you defend so many places?"

"I don't need to worry about this, Chief Chen! My military committee seat gave me the establishment of six divisions!" Zhang Lieyang said with a smile.Hearing Zhang Lieyang's words, Chen Cheng said in surprise: "Six divisions? That's already more than one group army!"

"Most of the officers in my unit are the graduates of the ninth batch of the Central Military Academy! All of them are American-made weapons, Soviet-made weapons, and most of the German-made artillery!" Zhang Lieyang continued after looking at the reactions of the three people: "Our army adopts new training methods, so you don't have to worry about combat effectiveness!"

"In this case, we don't have to worry too much!" Bai Chongxi said with a smile.

"Then, sirs, I will trouble you to give your subordinates the order to switch defenses!" Zhang Lieyang said with a smile.

After a while, after Zhang Lieyang completed all the formalities, before leaving, Zhang Lieyang smiled and said to Chen Cheng: "Be careful of the Madang Fortress in your defense zone!" Zhang Lieyang smiled and left.

Back at the temporary camp, Zhang Lieyang immediately gathered the whole army in an open area, and started the oath meeting.

On the temporary high platform, Zhang Lieyang said loudly to all the people in the audience: "Today, our various ministries will start one after another! This time, one division of ours will face a division of devils, and even more! Are you afraid? ?!"

The officers and soldiers in the audience shouted in unison: "Don't be afraid!..."

"Okay!" Zhang Lieyang pressed his hand lightly and said, "Our new No. 13 Army has encountered countless powerful enemies since the July 13 Marco Polo Bridge Incident, but they were all frightened by our unhesitating momentum. Courageous! Our new No.[-] army is wolves, a group of wolves who feed on the blood of the Japanese invaders!" Zhang Lieyang pulled out his saber, slashed his hand and said, "I, Zhang Lieyang, swear here that I will not Kill all the Japanese aggressors, and don't avenge the Nanjing massacre! I swear not to give up!"

Then I saw all the officers and soldiers in the audience pull out their sabers and daggers and followed Zhang Lieyang's example, launching a blood oath!

After a while, after the swearing-in meeting is over!All the officers above the brigade came to Zhang Lieyang's camp.After seeing everyone arrived, Zhang Lieyang pointed to the map and said: "Haitongqing, your independent artillery brigade distributes anti-tank guns to each division! Anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns are divided equally between the 187th and 717th divisions! Fang Bisheng, your 187th division. I am deploying defenses in Shucheng and Lujiang, and your last line of defense is in Tongcheng! Liu Sihai, your 717th Division and He Jianfeng's 557th Division are deploying defenses in Gushi, Lu'an and Shucheng. Your last defenses are Shangcheng and He Jianfeng respectively. Huo Shan! Wu Ziming, your 99th Division and Wu Qiu’s First Preliminary Division are deployed in Gushi, Chunheji and Huangchuan, your last Huangchuan! Peng Haisheng’s Second Preliminary Division is the reserve of the whole army! Peng Xuefei’s independent tank brigade , Zhou Bingkun's independent 884 brigade commander and the rest of Haidongqing's independent artillery brigade formed a rapid response division, with deputy commander Li Mutian concurrently serving as the division commander to covertly stand by on the front line of Hukou Pengze!"

After Zhang Lieyang announced the order, he looked at his watch and asked, "Do you have any questions?!"

"No more!" All the officers said in unison.

"Okay!" Zhang Lieyang said to Liu Fengming: "You distribute all the glory bombs to each department!"

"Understood, military seat!" Said Liu Fengming and left.After watching Liu Fengming leave, Zhang Lieyang immediately said: "All ministries must arrive at the designated area on June [-]st to complete the defense change, and immediately establish a defensive position!"

"Junzuo, don't worry! We promise to complete the task!" Fang Bisheng said with a smile.

"Okay! I won't talk too much about the rest. My military headquarters is located in Huoshan! Let's all start now!" Zhang Lieyang picked up his equipment and left with the special forces.

At the same time that Zhang Lieyang's various ministries took over the defense, Chiang Kai-shek came to Wuhan.

In the headquarters of the Wuhan battle, Chiang Kai-shek asked Chen Cheng, "Cixiu, how is the deployment in all aspects now?"

Chen Cheng walked to the map seriously and said: "Committee, all the ministries have been deployed now. Due to the addition of the new No.13 Army, we now have four and a half divisions more troops that can be used as a reserve team!"

"Very good, but Cixiu, you must strengthen your defense at the Madang Fortress!" Chiang Kai-shek seriously urged.

"Rest assured, the 16th Army of Li Yunheng is stationed next to the Madang Fortress. In addition, there are about 500 garrison troops in the fortress! There are enough ammunition in the fortress, and it will not be a problem to stick to it for several months!" Chen Chengcheng said solemnly. .

"Very good! This arrangement will ensure that nothing will go wrong!" Just when Chiang Kai-shek was happy, the secretary walked up to Chiang Kai-shek with a telegram and said, "Commissioner, a new telegram from Commander Zhang of the No. 13 Army!"

After reading the telegram, Chiang Kai-shek said to Chen Cheng: "Cixiu, now I will add [-]% insurance to Madang Fortress!" As he spoke, Chiang Kai-shek handed Zhang Lieyang's telegram to Chen Cheng, and Chen Cheng took the telegram and read it and said : "Commissioned seat, will Commander Zhang's deployment of a division have any impact on his frontal defense?"

After hearing this, Chiang Kai-shek laughed and said: "Cixiu, you underestimate Zhang Lieyang! I used to travel with a regiment of troops to protect me, but now I only need 100 guards to travel!"

"Commissioner, I'm afraid these one hundred people can't protect your safety?!" Chen Cheng said doubtfully.

Chiang Kai-shek smiled and asked the secretary to call a guard soldier in and said: "Put all the weapons and equipment on your body on the table! By the way, introduce them to them!"

The guard soldiers quickly put their equipment on the table and said: "The American-made Thompson submachine gun has four drums for [-] rounds and five magazines for [-] rounds; two daggers, blue with poison and red with non-toxic; Two brand-name pistols with twenty magazines; ten American grenades; one body armor; one grenadier and thirty rounds of shells! Except for snipers, these are the basic equipment for every soldier of ours!"

"Put it away now!" Chiang Kai-shek ordered with a smile.

The guard soldier quickly equipped his things, then turned and left.After the soldier left, Chiang Kai-shek asked with a smile, "Cixiu, what do you think of them now?"

"Not bad! Such a guard team must be very powerful! No wonder the committee members can get here so quickly!" Chen Cheng wiped his sweat and said.

While Chiang Kai-shek and Chen Cheng were talking, Zhang Lieyang also started to get busy!Zhang Lieyang looked at the map and said to the engineer commander: "Your task is to plant landmines. I will plant mines wherever I marked on the map for you!"

"Military seat, don't worry! Brothers, don't worry about your skill in laying mines!" said the engineer captain and left with the map.

Hata Toshiroku, who succeeded General Matsui Iwane as commander of the Central China Dispatch Army in Nanjing, said to Kiyoshi Kazuki, who succeeded Lieutenant General Hatohiko Asaka: "We must win this battle in Wuhan as quickly as possible and at the lowest cost. ! Otherwise, it will affect all the battle plans of the base camp!"

"Yeah! Hata Toshi-kun, what you said is right! We have dragged on the Battle of Nanjing for a long time, and in Taierzhuang, we suffered heavy losses, the two divisions were broken!" Xiangyue Qingsi thought for a while and continued. Said: "Hata Toshi-kun, do you think the new No.13 Army of the China Army will participate in this battle?!"

"I don't think it's possible for them to participate in this battle! Although the Ministry defeated the Tenth Division, I'm sure they must have also received heavy losses. It is estimated that they will not participate in such a large-scale battle in a short time! "Speaking, Hata Junliu picked up a telegram and looked at it and said: "The base camp urged us to win the entire Wuhan battle before August!"

"Since the base camp has called to urge you out, please rest assured, Jun Jun Hata! I will definitely ensure that the law and order here is intact in Beijing, Shanghai and Hangzhou! At the same time, I have prepared two divisions for you to serve as reserve teams! Waiting for dispatch at any time!" Qingyue Xiangyue Seriously.

"Okay! That's great! Xiangyue-kun, then please leave here!" Saying that, Hata Shunroku left with a command knife.
