The Red War God of Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 257 Strategizing

"Burning eels! Is this war related to burning eels?" Everyone suddenly fell into thinking, because they didn't quite understand how the eels were burned.

Seeing everyone thinking there with sad faces, the three heads of Noji showed knowing smiles.Yes, at that time, when Commander-in-Chief Wu said the words "burning rice field eels", the three of them also looked at each other in dismay, what, burning rice field eels?Later, after Wu Aihua explained it, the three of them thought it was a genius idea!

However, Xia Zhongqing and the others did not look at the jokes of their subordinates. According to Commander-in-Chief Wu, in the National Defense Forces, no matter their status or authority, they are all comrades-in-arms in the trenches.Therefore, after everyone was puzzled for a while, Xia Zhongqing cleared his throat and said:

"In the eyes of Commander-in-Chief Wu, the three armies of the Japanese East China Front Army are like three eels, and the other troops are like small fish and shrimps, which are not worth mentioning. Although the three eels are close together, they are They were not plated together. Therefore, we have to burn and eat the three eels one by one."

"Let's talk about the 10th Army of Yanagawa Hirasuke, who is closest to us. If the 10th Army is regarded as a rice field eel, how can we start? Rural children, if they catch a rice field eel in a river ditch, how do they eat it? It is to cook one piece and eat one piece. Therefore, for the 10th Army of Yanagawa Hirasuke, we must first eat the enemies of Changxing. Keep an eye on the head of the eel, the enemy of Songjiang. If a section of eel wants to move around, immediately hold him down or give him a knife, and if another piece of eel wants to move around, do the same."

"Gao, Gao, Commander-in-Chief Wu's idea is really high, and it immediately dispelled our doubts." Liu Fagui shouted.

"Hahaha..." Everyone burst into laughter when they heard Liu Fagui's wonderful words.

Liu Fagui's status in the National Defense Forces is very special. Zhang Binxian was the battalion commander when he first served in the 52nd Division of the National Army, and Feng Jianjun, Zhuang Xizhen, Yang Guiqing, Liu Fagui, Qian Minghui, and Li Yanbing were all platoon leaders under him. Now, Feng Jianjun He is the commander of the Air Force and Air Defense Force of the National Defense Forces, Yang Guiqing is the commander of the 6st Army, Zhang Binxian himself is the commander of the 1nd Army, Zhuang Xizhen is the commander of the 2rd Army, Qian Minghui is the commander of the 3th Army, and Li Yanbing is the commander of the Lightning Force The commander, only Liu Fagui, because he followed Commander Wu Aihua later than others, so now he is the division commander.

However, whether it is Zhang Binxian, the former battalion commander of the national army, or the current army commander and division commander, there is one thing in common, and that is the absolute loyalty to the National Defense Forces and Commander Wu Aihua.

The facts are indeed true. Except for a few generals in the 52nd Division who have become 10,000+ or ​​tens of thousands of people today, the others have either died in battle, or they are still in the position of battalion commander or company commander.

"Everyone, the meeting is adjourned. Everyone, go back and wait for the combat order. The field division will issue the combat order to each group army and each army division. Now go back and make preparations for the postscript." Yu Hanmou felt that this meeting was lively when everyone was excited. It's almost here.

Why not issue an operational order now?Now?The time is still very early. As far as we are concerned, the air force airport has not been repaired; as far as the Japanese army is concerned, if our army seizes the territory, the Japanese army will definitely take action. It is better to wait for the Japanese army to dispatch troops and generals. Send troops later.

Driving to the front line without going to war is also a tactic in itself.

In fact, Wu Aihua's "burning rice field eel" tactic still had three problems: one was that the air force had to suppress the Japanese air force, the other was to find a way to deal with the Japanese navy, and the third was to prevent the Japanese army from southern China from suddenly landing at Jinshanwei in Hangzhou Bay.

As long as the problems in these three aspects are solved, Wu Aihua can say without exaggeration that the three Japanese armies and the three national defense armies will compete on land.

Besides, there are several national army reorganized divisions and other troops in Wuxi, Jiangyin, and Taixing, with a total of more than 20 people.Wu Aihua believes that when the war situation develops to a certain level, these generals of the national army will not come up to take advantage of it.

As for how to solve the above three problems, Wu Aihua has already made up his mind, and he has also given the truth to the three of Yesi. Everything is just waiting for the moment when the war starts.

Of course, the "burning eel" tactic is also flexible and changeable. It seems that the enemy in Changxing should be burned first, because this enemy is the farthest from Shanghai.But it doesn't have to be.

……

The National Defense Forces suddenly gathered in the south of Jiaxing and Huzhou, which made Matsui Iwane, commander of the Japanese East China Front, feel pressure.Matsui Iwane knows exactly how many troops of the National Defense Forces have reached Zhejiang. However, Matsui Iwane does not know the combat power of the National Defense Forces, so he is quite upset.

Matsui Iwane remembered Terauchi Toshida, who once fought against the Japanese army, and immediately sent a telegram back to ask for advice.Terauchi Shouichi is currently serving as a staff officer in the Japanese army base camp, and basically has nothing to do. Even if the base camp discusses something, no one will believe what he said as a defeated general.This kind of thing has happened several times, as long as the emperor does not ask, Terauchi Toshiichi will never take the initiative to speak.

Since Matsui Iwane asked for advice, Terauchi Toshiichi would of course have something to say, but Terauchi’s knowledge of the National Defense Forces was still half a year ago, so his reply was "Anti-tank, anti-heavy artillery, anti-air attack, anti-sneak attack" total 12 characters.

It has to be said that Toshi Terauchi's perception of the National Defense Forces is somewhat accurate. The first three defenses talk about the National Defense Forces' equipment being better than the Japanese army, and the latter one talks about the National Defense Forces' tactics are always surprising.

However, Matsui Ishi did not take it seriously when he saw the first nine words, but when he saw the last three words "anti-sneak attack", he suddenly felt a pain in his heart and almost couldn't sit still on the ground.

Yes, Matsui Iwane's illness did not heal. Since the Japanese army didn't want to change generals, and the National Defense Forces had already advanced in front of him, Matsui Iwane could only stick to his post of jihad while sick.

In the end, Matsui Iwane had no choice but to arrange his troops according to his own ideas.

First of all, Matsui Iwane ordered the 10th Army Yanagawa to help strengthen the defense of Huzhou and Jiaxing. This is also the reason why the 107th Division went south to Jiaxing for defense. In addition, other divisions of the 10th Army are ready to reinforce Jiaxing and Nanhu. , As for the frontier position in Changxing, if it cannot be defended, it is not necessary.But Huzhou and Jiaxing cannot afford to lose, otherwise, the Chinese army will go straight to Shanghai.

Secondly, Matsui Iwane ordered all combat aircraft of the Army Air Force to concentrate on Chongming Island Airport.This airport is newly built after Iwane Matsui lost more than 200 planes at Hongqiao Airport. Based on the current flight distance of Japanese aircraft, it can completely provide support for army operations in Nanjing and any place within Nanjing.The entire Chongming Island will be defended by the Marine Corps and the Navy’s Chinese fleet. Moreover, in view of the fact that the "demon" cannot deal with ships weighing more than 5000 tons, the Japanese Navy directly dispatched the battleship Nagato, Nachi, Aoba, Myoko, and Maya. Heavy cruisers patrolled the Yangtze River waterway, turning Chongming Island into an "impregnable" air force fortress.

Thirdly, in response to the possible attack of the National Defense Forces, Matsui Iwane formulated a "singer plan", which means "the mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole follows".The completion of this plan made Matsui Ishibuka very proud, and this plan was also highly praised when it was reported to the Japanese army base camp.

The so-called "Yellow Bird Project" actually has one meaning. If the Chinese army gathers three main group armies and above to actively attack the Shanghai area, and when the two armies are fighting fiercely, the Japanese South China Front Army will quietly land in Hangzhou Bay, and give the Chinese army back. fatal blow.

Alternatively, if the Japanese South China Front Army takes the initiative to attack the two provinces of Fujian and Guangdong when the conditions are ripe, at the critical moment of the battle, the East China Front Army can ignore the national army in front of it and concentrate at least two troops in addition to leaving a certain number of troops to guard the main stronghold. The Japanese army in East China marched southward, thus forming an encirclement of the National Defense Forces.

From a strategic point of view, Matsui Iwane's plan is really impeccable.Didn't the Japanese army land in Jinshanwei in history and cause the national army to retreat in Shanghai?

If Wu Aihua was a person of this era, he might follow Matsui Iwane's way, but unfortunately, Wu Aihua is not a person of this era. Don't say that the Japanese army has this plan, even if there is no such plan, Wu Aihua would not be able to give up the direction of Jinshanwei vigilance.

Regardless of the fact that the Japanese South China Front Army has 4 armies, plus the Taiwan Servant Army, it has a strength of more than 70 people. In Wu Aihua's eyes, they are nothing more than chickens and dogs.Even if you have 100 million, it's just that.Because the combat power of the army must be manifested on land after all. If it is at sea, it is nothing.

As early as Wu Aihua's "robbery trio" was on his way back to Fujian, Wu Aihua asked Shen Ren and Kong Wu: "Can you fly a plane?"

"There is nothing in this world that we can't open." Shen Ren answered instead of Kong Wu, Wu Aihua looked at Kong Wu, and Kong Wu also nodded in agreement.

"That is to say, you can even drive a submarine?" Wu Aihua asked again.

"Boss, your IQ is really not high." Shen Ren joked, didn't you answer this question just now?

That is, from then on, Wu Aihua ordered the "Customs Bureau" to closely monitor the movements of the Japanese South China Front Army and the Japanese Navy's Chinese fleet.

Regarding the Japanese army in East China and the Japanese army in South China, Wu Aihua planned to solve the problem once and for all even if he sacrificed Kong Wu's "body" in the future.

This "later" is obviously something after the end of World War II.

In this decisive battle related to China's destiny, Wu Aihua cannot tolerate a little selfishness and slack, and the lion fights the rabbit to do his best, not to mention facing the ferocious Japanese army.

On February 2, the Japanese army continued to increase troops to Jiaxing.The 22th Division of the Japanese 11th Army Tani Hisao, who was on the front line of Taicang and Kunshan, also started to head south.

But on this day, the National Defense Forces did not take any action, as if they were traveling to the front line of Deqing.

Beginning in the early morning of February 2, the 23rd and 3th regiments of the Air Force of the National Defense Forces began to enter the temporary airport in Deqing. With the landing of combat aircraft, the war preparations of the National Defense Forces were finally completed.
