The Republic of Heroes

Therefore, Wu Xiaoliang had to unify the internal opinions of the Suidong Army before sending troops. Originally, after the first battle, there were a lot of casualties, and he went through a large-scale expansion of the army. It will shake the morale of the army, which is a taboo for military strategists on the battlefield.

Fang Qidao pondered for a long while and finally spoke again: "I have thought about it carefully. It is indeed more appropriate for us to send troops than not to send troops. Only in this way can we take the initiative." After speaking, he got up and came to the whole painting. In front of the map of Siberia, he pointed to Temple Street and tapped twice, "Everyone, please see that it is not wise for the Japanese army to seize Temple Street from a strategic point of view. There are enemies here, and there is a threat from Pavlovsk in the north. There are also my Suidong Army's restraint in the south, so why did they do such a thing with half the effort, there are two reasons."

Speaking of this, Fang Qidao raised his arms, "Pavlovsk is an important stronghold of Soviet Russia, but this city is located in a remote place, and its population, economy and strategic location are irrelevant."

Without stopping, he clicked on the location of Pavlovsk and then slid down, drew a circle at Shuangchengzi and Vladivostok, and said: "Then their most likely only target is the station of our Suidong Army." , Shuangchengzi and Vladivostok, these two places are not only the economic centers of Far East Siberia, but more importantly, they are connected to the Middle East Railway in China. The strategic location is extremely critical. Therefore, my opinion is that the Japanese army attacked Malinovsky , The ultimate goal of landing on Temple Street is to capture Shuangchengzi and Vladivostok."

Fang Qidao paused, and said word by word: "So I agree with the commander's opinion, send troops to Temple Street, and seize the initiative in the strategic situation! Please pay attention, this is not a simple rescue operation. Temple Street is tantamount to saving the Suidong Army itself." He specifically mentioned Wu Xiaoliang's position to remind everyone that Wu Xiaoliang has the power to make a decision with one word. If there is no more suitable reason, it is not very wise to just rely on personal likes and dislikes. Behavior.

Wu Xiaoliang sighed in his heart. Fang Qidao, a hot-blooded young man, has become a stranger even to him in just a few years. He is more like a qualified politician. He has a strategic vision and a Chinese's enthusiasm for the motherland. Now it has added the sophistication and tact of a politician.

It's a pity that Yin Chengfu didn't understand Fang Qidao's hint, and continued with his point of view, "I firmly oppose it, against going to rescue the butcher Lao Maozi who killed my compatriots."

The atmosphere in the venue suddenly became tense and became full of gunpowder. Tantai Jize felt that it was time for him to say a few words to ease the emotions of the few.He has now been promoted to the director of the Material Liaison Office of the Suidong Army. His position is not high, but he has great power in his hands. Officers below the head of the regiment at the grassroots level are all respectful and good to him, and he dare not neglect him at all, and he is also responsive to every request. They all strive to do things beautifully, so although they have only been in office for a short time, they have a high reputation in the Suidong Army.

"Commander, Master Yin's concerns are actually common among veterans in the army. We cannot avoid this. However, as the commander-in-chief of an army, we are responsible for the lives and safety of the soldiers of the army."

After Tantai Jize finished speaking, he looked at Yin Chengfu, and Yin Chengfu snorted angrily. From what he heard, the words were meant for him, but this old Xier changed the subject, "If that's the case, there is something wrong with not being talented." This suggestion is to ask the veterans to turn their heads to save the sworn enemy. It is somewhat difficult, the thinking is not unified, the military spirit is not consistent, and it is easy to be dangerous on the battlefield, so I think it is more appropriate for the Second Division to send troops."

Tantai Jize's proposal was tantamount to directly skipping the issue of whether to send troops, and went directly to the topic of discussing how to send troops.The reason why the second division is proposed to attack is that although the first division is directly led by Wu Xiaoliang, they are all veterans who survived the war with the Soviet Russian army. It is obviously inappropriate to send them.Second, the commander of the third division is Yin Chengfu, and he has a fierce opposition to the rescue operation, which is of course even more inappropriate.Only the second division, the division commander was Fang Qidao who supported the rescue, and most of the soldiers were Vladivostok recruits who had fought against the Japanese army, as well as some Belarusian soldiers.

Therefore, the second division has the strongest will to fight against Japan, and it is most appropriate to send them there. After hearing this, Fang Qidao nodded slightly to express his agreement with this method, but he still did not speak until Wu Xiaoliang made a statement.

Yin Chengfu was obviously very dissatisfied with Tantai Jize's behavior of bypassing him, so he snorted heavily, stopped making a sound, and assumed an attitude of acquiescing.

This Tantai Jize is really talented to be the director of material liaison, Wu Xiaoliang gave him such a comment.Seeing that all resistance had been resolved, he ordered the army to be ready to go.At the same time, a decision was made that shocked everyone again.

The Second Division of the Suidong Army was led by him personally, and went straight to Temple Street by sea from a transport ship. The Suidong, which had just recovered its power, served as the escort mission.

This time Wu Xiaoliang was opposed by all the participants, and even Tantai Jize tried his best to persuade him that the future of the sea route is unpredictable, and what should the Suidong Army do if there is an accident.Wu Xiaoliang nodded as soon as he heard it, but what he was thinking was that when he came back from Temple Street, he had to set up a separate political department in the headquarters to do the ideological work of these people, and set up a whole set of military law system. The orders of the superior officers can be reserved, but once they are confirmed, they must be implemented with all their strength. It is the worst thing to engage in passive confrontation like Yin Chengfu.

After Wu Xiaoliang made up his mind, his attitude became extremely tough in the second half of the meeting, and everyone had to acquiesce to his plan again.After the meeting was over, Wu Xiaoliang led people and rushed to the Suidong ship for inspection non-stop. He wanted to know whether the current situation of the Suidong ship was suitable for escorting at sea?

As the captain, Petrov gave him an affirmative answer. Although all the conditions were immature, he attached great importance to this operation. When he learned that Wu Xiaoliang personally ordered his general, he was extremely excited.

"The sailors of the ship have been looking forward to this battle for a long time, please rest assured, Commander..."

Wu Xiaoliang actually had doubts. After all, he had only trained for a month. He had no idea whether these old sailors could control this battleship.Prince Petrov seemed to have seen through Wu Xiaoliang's thoughts, and ordered the Suidong to fire up and drive out of the bay, accelerating up to a maximum of twenty knots. After reaching the intended goal, the turret rotated while decelerating. After the order was issued, the guns rumbled.The entire warship shook like a landslide.
