Chapter 1072, three days, quick victory

“Wiggins, are you under a lot of pressure?”

“Look at my hair. I lost hundreds of them last night.”

“I’m sorry, I didn’t see it.”

“If work doesn’t progress, I’ll be bald sooner or later.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll help you.”

"Thanks."

“It would be better if you could help me get some cheap M2HB heavy machine guns.”

"open…"

"Am I not worth as much as dozens of old heavy machine guns? I know you have inventory. Put it in the warehouse. Sealed."

“That is the asset of the army.”

“I know! But old and outdated assets can be disposed of!”

“They perform well…”

“Then you are willing to be bald?”

“Okay! I’ll think of a way. But, Zhang, I can only do this kind of thing once. Otherwise…”

"Wiggins, you need to open your eyes. Only by disposing of these old assets can the army obtain more new equipment. Otherwise, when the masters of Congress see those old antiques, they will say, use them first if they can be used. What appropriation! And then the budget was rejected?"

“You are really eloquent…”

“Are those politicians on Capitol Hill nobler than me?”

"of course not."

“So we have to be flexible. Kill three birds with one stone.”

"What's the meaning?"

“Look, you got rid of those old antiques, I got the benefits, the army also got a new budget, and you don’t have to be bald..."

"But…"

“If the current Army Chief of Staff is still General MacArthur, he will definitely do this.”

"All right…"

Wiggins was convinced.

He really doesn’t want to be bald. Too ugly.

It seems to be done at Buckingham Palace.

Zhang Yong then took his leave.

Suddenly, he found a yellow dot approaching him with a weapon sign.

Yellow dot? who is it? Not being able to mark it really affects judgment. Fortunately, we saw each other soon. It was discovered that it was Shen Wei. Riding a bicycle, sweating profusely.

Judgment comes to you. So show up.

“Commissioner!”

Shen Wei shouted breathlessly.

While parking the car, I almost fell down. It can be seen that he is really exhausted.

Fortunately, I was supported by someone. That's why it didn't fall off.

“What’s important?”

“Webmaster, please call back. It’s urgent.”

"OK."

Zhang Yong nodded. Turn around and look for the phone.

In this day and age, communication is really bad. Hey, I really miss the days of having mobile phones!

You can communicate by phone anytime and anywhere.

Fortunately, there are more telephones in the concession.

Call back to Shanghai Station.

Look for Jia Tengying.

“Shao Long, what are you busy with?”

"I'm in the concession. Exchanging some information with the Americans. Is there something important?"

“General Wenbai has sent a platoon of soldiers to wait for you at the door. He wants you to go to the Songhu Security Headquarters immediately.”

“Who? General Wenbai? Which one?”

Zhang Yong did not react for a moment.

But vaguely, this name seems a bit familiar?

Songhu Garrison Command?

Send a platoon of soldiers?

What do you want to do?

Subconsciously wake up the spirit.

Check your personal space. good. There are enough weapons. There are also submachine guns.

“That’s Zhang…”

Jia Tengying said a name.

Zhang Yong finally reacted. It turns out to be him!

No wonder it sounds familiar.

This is a famous peace general. Never participated in the battle against the Red Party. But he has always gained the trust of Chiang Kai-shek. He is also considered a god.

As soon as he had the chance, he would run towards the Red Party. He had a good relationship with the Red Party, but he was repeatedly entrusted with important tasks by Chiang Kai-shek, leading troops into battle to kill the enemy.

He was the frontline commander in chief during the two Songhu Anti-Japanese War.

“He’s looking for me?”

"right."

“Where to go?”

“Songhu Garrison Command.”

"ah?"

“I have also just received the news. General Wen Bai has been appointed as the commander of the Songhu Garrison Command. He has officially succeeded Commander Qian.”

"Yeah?"

Zhang Yong was a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Wenbai took over.

Unexpected. But it was expected.

Previously, Xuan Tiewu and Yang Hu were fighting among themselves, trying to compete for the throne of commander.

However, Commander Qian never officially resigned. Later, Xuan Tiewu reported illness, and Yang Hu did not take over smoothly. Until now, General Wenbai suddenly appeared.

In fact, looking back, it seems very reasonable.

The previous 129 Songhu War of Resistance was supported by General Wenbai's army.

Now, the national army is preparing to regain the Japanese-occupied area of Hongkou. He is certainly the best frontline commander. none of them.

It seems that Chiang Kai-shek's deployment has been secretly carried out.

As mentioned before, the 87th Division, 88th Division, and 36th Division are all training in Suzhou, and the signs are very obvious.

But the Japanese invaders must also know about it.

Songhu Garrison Command changed its commander. Outside Songhu, the main force of the national army was deployed. Anyone who is not a fool will realize that something is wrong.

“Where is Commander Yang’s Fifty-ninth Army?”

“Transferred away.”

"oh."

“The original Fifty-ninth Army was transferred. But the Fifty-eighth Division was stationed in the name of the Fifty-ninth Army.”

“The 74th Army didn’t come?”

“What is the Seventy-Fourth Army? There is no such designation.”

"Um?"

Zhang Yong feels wrong.

Isn’t there still the Seventy-fourth Army?

Could it be said that the famous Seventy-Fourth Army has not been formally established yet?

“What about the 71st Army?”

　　　“There is no such number either.”

“Oh. I remembered it wrong.”

Zhang Yong was thoughtful.

It turns out that there are no 71st and 74th armies yet!

Haha, from a certain perspective, my qualifications are longer than the history of these two armies!

“Come back as soon as possible.”

"good."

Jia Tengying did not elaborate. Worried about phone calls being leaked.

Zhang Yong did not ask in detail. Phone calls are not secure.

So many elite division-level units appeared outside Songhu at the same time. It was impossible for the Japanese invaders not to pay attention.

Shanghai Beach may be very lively in the coming time!

General Wenbai is looking for me. Is there a secret leak?

hang up the phone.

Took an action team and quickly returned to Shanghai Station.

Sure enough, I saw a group of soldiers in yellow-green military uniforms from a distance. One look at this military uniform, and you can tell that he is an elite member of his direct lineage.

This kind of military uniform is not owned by the Songhu Garrison Command. Their appearance means that new troops have been transferred.

but…

Are you not afraid of leaking secrets?

Did General Wenbai do this on purpose? can't read…

Step forward.

A lieutenant officer came up.

He came to pick up Zhang Yong.

So we set off immediately. Go to Songhu Security Headquarters.

Bon Voyage.

Arrived at the door.

Stop the car.

“Shall I go in by myself?”

“No need. You can bring your own people in.”

"good."

Zhang Yong was relieved.

It turns out you can bring your own people! It would be great.

I was a little worried at first. No more now. If you take your own people with you, you will definitely be safe.

But don’t dare to exaggerate. It's impossible to bring the entire action team in. Only take a small team. About fifteen people. enough.

Wouldn’t he be able to teleport through time and space now? If the situation is not right, get out of the way immediately.

It can be said to be the most powerful amulet.

I hope it’s not used.

I didn’t see Zhou Yang. Liu Bo was not seen either.

There are no marked people in the map monitoring. It seems that someone has been replaced.

The replacement was very thorough.

Perhaps all the original people have been transferred.

Those who appear now may have been transferred with General Wenbai.

Sure enough, a major officer appeared in front. very young. Very tough. On the left side of the body is a box cannon.

"Hello."

“Certificate.”

"good."

Zhang Yong took out the pass for the attendant's room.

The other party will allow passage after inspection.

The team brought by Zhang Yong were asked to wait nearby. But no weapons were collected.

"follow me."

"Thanks."

Zhang Yong followed the major officer.

Since traveling through time, he has met so many officers, and for the first time he discovered that the box cannon was on the shoulder.

Those people I met before all carried the box cannon on the right side of their body, which looked very standard. In fact, if it is carried on the right side, it will take a long time to draw the gun when encountering a situation.

Most people draw their guns with their right hand, and the box gun is very long and difficult to pull out.

On the contrary, if it is carried on the left side, it can be easily pulled out by the right hand.

Simply put it means—

Idolist, on the right side. Handsome.

　　Practical faction, carrying the left side. practical.

The idols of the past are all gone now. All practical fighters.

There's going to be a war!

Who is playing tricks with you?

"please."

“Go in by yourself.”

"yes."

Zhang Yong arranges his clothes. Then enter the war room.

He has been to this place before. Commander Qian told him about the Songhu battle plan inside.

See General Wenbai.

Not as tall as Commander Qian. Rather polite.

"Report!"

"come over."

"yes."

Zhang Yong walked over.

General Wenbai seems quite kind.

“Are you Zhang Yong?”

“Sir, I am Zhang Yong.”

“Where did you go just now?”

“Performing tasks in the concession. Catching Japanese spies.”

“Yes, he is a hard-working man. The commissioner said, if everyone is like Zhang Shaolong, why should the country not be prosperous?”

Zhang Yong:…

faint. Don't put a high hat on me!

I also want to take paid vacation. The problem is no! Not even overtime pay.

You have to be responsible for your own profits and losses. Generate your own income.

If you don’t work hard to catch Japanese spies, you won’t even have money to eat.

Unlike you, you can eat royal food...

“Commander Qian strongly recommends that you put forward some opinions on the Songhu battle plan.”

"I?"

"right."

“I don’t seem to have any suggestions…”

“Say it.”

"Okay. Let me tell you straight. First, the Japanese invaders may have more than a hundred carrier-based aircraft. Taking turns bombing will cause huge casualties to the attacking troops. In addition, the Japanese invaders may take off from Taiwan. , bombing our troops indiscriminately."

"anything else?"

“Second, the large-caliber naval guns of the Japanese navy have a long range, great power, and very strong sustained firepower. One cannon can blow up half a platoon of infantry.”

"anything else?"

"Third, many of the Japanese expatriates in Hongkou who were invaded by the Japanese invaders were local soldiers. When they took up arms, they were fully armed Japanese invaders. Therefore, the strength of the Japanese invaders was definitely not as simple as a few thousand people. Fifteen thousand, Even 20,000 is possible.”

“Is there any more?”

“Once the fierce fighting lasts for more than ten days, the main force of the Japanese army is likely to arrive.”

Zhang Yong finished speaking in one breath.

Don’t care if it’s right or not. Pour the beans into the bamboo tube and pour them all out.

Refreshing.

Find out that the other person is thoughtful.

I don’t know if the other party listened. Maybe just for show?

After all, the plan has been basically completed. Just waiting for execution.

Once Chiang Kai-shek approves it, he will have to launch an attack even if he takes action. It cannot be changed easily.

Unless Chiang Kai-shek himself changes his orders from morning to night...

“Our initial plan is to deploy three elite divisions, including the 87th, 88th, and 58th divisions, to fight quickly and strive to resolve the battle within three days.”

“Three days?”

Zhang Yong frowned.

He was very disgusted with this time.

Three days?

How can it be?

The national army overestimates itself.

The Japanese invaders relied on fortifications and their defensive capabilities were extremely strong.

Later generations said that the Japanese invaders tried to destroy China in three months and made a fatal mistake.

Unexpectedly, on the Songhu battlefield, the national army also made fatal mistakes at the beginning. I also want a quick victory. Fantasy ends the battle in three days.

Weird…

Who revised the plan?

Is the difference so big?

This was not the case when Commander Qian drafted the document last time.

The last report did not mention that the battle would be resolved in three days. There was no mention of a quick resolution.

Why did it suddenly change?

“It must be done quickly. Otherwise, we will be in trouble.”

"ah?"

"The Japanese aircraft and naval guns are huge threats. We must capture Hongkou before they can react. Then retreat."

"ah?"

Zhang Yong was surprised again.

I see. It turned out to be to maximize strengths and avoid weaknesses.

The new combat plan did take into account the huge threat from Japanese aircraft and naval guns.

Also put forward the requirement for a quick resolution.

Attempt to minimize the threats from naval guns and aircraft as much as possible.

Indeed, this is an effective means.

The issue is…

Have the ability to make quick decisions.

If you develop a quick-fix plan, but in the end you cannot solve it quickly...

　That would be passive.

The Battle of Songhu in history was fought very passively.

They are all fuel tactics. It was discovered that there were not enough troops in the front, so they were urgently dispatched from the rear. Like sprinkling pepper.

Batch after batch of troops were sent in, but they were all dispersed by the Japanese invaders who were waiting for work.

Are we going to make the same mistakes again now?

“It must be resolved quickly.”

General Wenbai emphasized again.

Zhang Yong said nothing.

He was silent.

be opposed to. But I dare not say it.

He was opposed to this plan from the bottom of his heart. Oppose quick-fix tactics.

Mustache also wanted to solve the Soviet Union quickly, but in the end he was pushed back. No lesson was more profound than his.

but…

What's the use of others' slight words?

It is not his turn to interfere in such a major historical event.

“Do you have a different opinion?”

"No."

“This is a plan based on the opinions of the commissioners. The commissioners are very satisfied with it. At the same time, they have high hopes.”

“I understand my humble duty. I will resolutely carry out my humble duty.”

“Perform what?”

“Whatever the commander needs to perform in his humble duties, he will perform in his humble duties.”

“One sentence for the commission: Keep it confidential. Be sure to take things by surprise and attack them unprepared. Use the shortest time to achieve the greatest effect.”

“Humble position understands.”

Zhang Yong complained secretly.

Commissioning is easy to say. Pay attention to confidentiality.

Nonsense.

Who doesn’t know to keep it secret?

Who doesn’t know how to take things by surprise and attack them when they are not prepared?

The issue is…

Let’s talk about whether it can be done.

The entire country is like a sieve. There are countless traitors.

It is estimated that the Japanese invaders will know about this combat plan soon. Then make targeted adjustments.

Once a war does start, it cannot be over in three days.

There is a famous saying in later generations: You can decide when the war starts, but you cannot decide when the war ends.
