Chapter 835 2 Head Preparation
This is a blind worship of firepower, regarding the strength of firepower as the only factor determining the outcome of a war.
"Okay, are we ready?"
"Well, Long Wenjian and his men are constantly perfecting the battle plan. Once Yu Xiaoqing's troops fail in their attack, it might be our turn to take the field!"
Li Yunlong was forced to nod. They were a bunch of people who would not turn back until they hit the wall. It was better for them to get hit by a club than to talk until their lips were hoarse. It was a pity that so many good Chinese men's lives were destroyed.
"Mengzi, what is the situation in Hubei, Hunan and Guangxi?"
"It's OK for now. After the Central Army withdrew, Lao Zhao also sent people to take over. Now it has basically settled down."
"Old Zhao has worked hard during this period. The situation in North China is very delicate now. The Japanese are like good children now. They don't fight back or say anything when we provoke them. No matter how we provoke them, they are like turtles hiding their heads.
Wang Huaibao of the First Army and Ding Wei of the Second Army sent me telegrams every day, asking us to directly recover North China! "
In fact, Wang Meng was also thinking about the recovery of North China. Although the Japanese did not have many troops stationed in North China, Peking had great strategic significance. It was the headquarters of the North China Front Army. It could not be ruled out that the Japanese would fight to the death and perish together.
In addition, there is the cancer of the Kwantung Army.
In order to defend Southeast Asia and supplement the Southern Burma Front, the Japanese drew 200,000 elite troops from the Kwantung Army. According to estimates, there are only less than 200,000 elite troops left in the Northeast, and the rest are all old, weak, sick and disabled.
Moreover, winter was coming soon. In order to maintain the mobility of the armored forces, it was necessary to resolve the Northeast in a short period of time and press forward to North China before the heavy snow closed the mountains.
Therefore, Wang Meng's plan was to attack the Northeast first, then advance to Beijing and drive the Japanese devils south.
"Old Li, now that the Kwantung Army is weak, shouldn't we also expand our Northeast Independent Division? In addition, since the enemy is showing weakness, we should further squeeze their living space."
"Okay, no problem! It's just something for the First and Second Armies to do."
When the order reached Wang Huaibao and Ding Wei, they were like athletes who had taken stimulants, and they were eager to rush to the stadium and start a decisive battle with the Japanese.
As a result, "exploitation" was gradually understood to mean "crushing", with unlimited oppression in the areas occupied by the Japanese.
The First Army and the Second Army completely turned to the northeast, and the defense of the original various places was handed over to the mobile regiment.
It is expected that the First Army will advance into Chifeng and Tongliao from the southern foot of the Greater Khingan Range, and the Second Army will attack Hailar and the Greater Khingan Range area along the northern side of the Greater Khingan Range.
In addition, after the Northeast Independent Division completed its expansion, it cooperated with the First Army and the Second Army to control the territory of the puppet Manchukuo.
After three days of preparation, five armies, totaling 300,000 troops and the Second Air Division and the Fourth to Sixth Air Divisions pressed toward the Northeast region.
At this time, a meeting on post-war layout is about to be held.
Unexpectedly, not only Chang Guangzhou was invited to attend the meeting from the Chinese war zone, but also the Independent Column.
Li Yunlong was supposed to lead the team to attend the meeting, but Xiuqin was about to give birth, and Li Yunlong had always disliked meetings, especially with foreigners. It was even more painful when he couldn't understand what they were saying, and sitting there was like sitting on a tiger bench.
"Mengzi, why don't you go? You can speak foreign languages, so you'll be able to understand them. If I go, I won't even know I've been sold."
Wang Meng let Li Yunlong go because of his flattering expression, and this meeting was held in the Yalta Palace on the Crimean Peninsula!
"Okay, then you have to authorize me to handle all emergencies at the meeting. If I need to ask for instructions at the last minute, I'm afraid it will be too late!"
"Of course, how can I not trust you? You will never suffer any loss, unlike Lao Zhao, who is easily influenced by others. Maybe he will cede our land to you with just a few nice words!"
"Stop, stop! You are calling our Lao Zhao a traitor!"
"Hey, luckily he's not here."
Wang Meng looked at Johnson's telegram and saw that the meeting was probably held on August 1944, 8.
He fell into deep thought. The advancement of this meeting might be related to the early end of the Henan-Hunan-Guangxi Campaign. The entry of 20 Kwantung Army into Southeast Asia did put great pressure on Country M.
What should we do if Country M asks Country E to march into the Northeast?
What if Country M also asks China to attack Southeast Asia?
Of course, if China does not want to seek global status, it can reject their demands. But if it wants to get a share of the post-war pie, it must contribute on the battlefield.
There was no way that Mobei would be ceded, and he also had to have the sea outlet in the southern part of Myanmar.
To this end, he must make strategic deployments in advance. Once an agreement is reached, the troops in Yunnan and the Northeast must immediately enter combat status!
So, Wang Meng ordered the Fifth Army and the Sixth Army to enter Yunnan, deploy on the east bank of the Nujiang River, and wait for an opportunity to act.
The defense of Hunan, Hubei and Guangxi was entirely handed over to the Fourth Army.
The Third Army ensured Pingshun's absolute safety.
In addition, all the G43 semi-automatic rifles and bullets that were replaced were handed over to the mother's family. As a condition, they were organized into five armies to prepare for emergencies.
"Connect me to Director Zhang Wanhe of the Logistics Department!"
After a while, the call was connected and there was a noisy sound coming from Zhang Wanhe's side.
"Lao Zhang, what's going on over there? Why is it so noisy, just like a vegetable market!"
"Don't even mention it. All the army groups have sent people to ask for weapons and equipment. They have blocked me up until now. I haven't even had lunch! They want everything, weapons, ammunition, bandages, and alcohol. They want to empty my warehouse!"
"Just wait, I'll be there soon!"
After Wang Meng finished speaking, he got on a jeep and drove to the logistics department warehouse outside the city. After strict inspection, he finally entered the core area.
Currently, among the weapons and equipment available to the entire independent column, only the Tiger tank, C-54 transport aircraft and B-17 bomber have not been completed. The rest of the equipment has been mass-produced, including the Type 6 tank and the FF Hellcat.
And this warehouse has everything. It can equip three armies with enough equipment. In addition, there are military factories scattered in various places. If you empty your assets, it will be no problem to equip three more armies.
Wang Meng's jeep was parked in front of a five-story building. A group of officers were standing at the door. They seemed to be sent by various army groups.
Wang Meng was furious when he saw these officers bustling around in front of the logistics department building.
"What are you all doing? Why are you making so much noise? Report your unit names to the guards, then line up and stand at attention until I give the order to relieve you!"
When the officers turned around and found that it was the chief of staff, they immediately straightened their bodies and lined up neatly.
