"Hai!" Usami Takashi nodded heavily.
Dong Jiurei Gong Nianyan sighed again and said: "What a pity, what a pity!"
The Chief of Staff of the Second Army, Machijiri Ryouki, asked: "Your Highness, what are you regretting?"
"It's a pity that the Empire of Japan and the Imperial Army of Japan didn't finally discover such a good tactic until today!"
After a pause, Higashikanomiya Nurihiko continued: "If we could have discovered this tactic a year earlier and sent young Toshihiko like Usami-kun and Yamamoto-kun to learn from Japan, we would have been able to implement this tactic. If applied to the China battlefield, then the Japan-China War would have ended in Xuzhou or even Shanghai!"
"Soga!" Machijiri Liangji nodded and said, "If this tank blitzkrieg is really so powerful, the imperial army does have a great chance to encircle and annihilate the main force of the China Army outside Xuzhou City or even in the suburbs of Shanghai! In this case, the China government might have It is indeed a pity that we have already surrendered and the empire will not have to engage in a protracted war!"
Higashikata Nurihiko said: "I believe in the judgment of Usami-kun and Yamamoto-kun. The tank blitzkrieg pioneered by the Germans is very harmful, and the tactics used by the Chinese Army on the Hanyang battlefield last night must also be this tactic. It must be Otherwise, there is no way to explain the fact that the Third Division was wiped out overnight!"
"Hai!" Machijiri Yangji paused and said nothing more.
Dong Jiuyi Gong Nianyan said again: "Now that the secret of the destruction of the Third Division has been understood, let's continue to discuss the strategy of the Battle of Wuhan! Should we concentrate our forces or divide our forces?"
Shimizu Shige, the commander of the 116th Division, said with joy: "In view of the fact that the China Army has tanks and has mastered tank blitzkrieg, and what Usami-kun and Yamamoto-kun just said, in order to break the blitzkrieg, the final way is actually to use Tanks are tanks, so I think I shouldn¡¯t divide the troops!¡±
Machijiri Yuuki also nodded and said: "I agree with Shimizu-kun's point of view, because the number of tanks attached to the Second Army is not large. There are nominally two independent tank regiments, but in fact there are only four squadrons with more than a hundred vehicles." Chariots, half of which are imitations of British Vickers chariots, these cannot be called tanks!"
"Hey!" Dongjiuyugong Nianyan said happily, "Then concentrate our forces to capture Hankou, then cross the Han River to the west to occupy Hanyang, and finally join the navy to cross the Yangtze River south to capture Wuchang!"
"Hai!" All the officers present at the meeting nodded in unison.
¡¡
Two days later, on July 18, the 27th year of the Republic of China (1938), the three main divisions of the Second Army led by Dong Jiuregong Nianyan arrived in Hankou and joined the 10th Division.
At this point, the Japanese army that appeared outside Hankou had gathered four divisions, two field heavy artillery brigades, plus tanks, mountain artillery, anti-aircraft guns, machine guns and dozens of independent regiments or brigades. The total strength exceeded 150,000 people! This can be said to be an overwhelming force of soldiers!
¡¡
Zhong Yi and Stilwell came to Hankou again.
Then the four brigade commanders from the Hankou defense area were summoned to the underground command post of the railway station fortress.
"Everyone, the little Japanese soldiers are approaching!" Zhong Yi's stern eyes swept across the faces of Zhu Liangcheng, Shi Zude, Liu Yuanlin and Zhou Zizi, and said, "The real battle is about to begin!"
Zhu Liangcheng and the other four people's expressions suddenly condensed. A real battle?
"Co-authored" In Zhong Yi's heart, the previous battle with the 10th Division was not considered a real battle?
But having said that, except for the first two attacks, the 10th Division really did not put too much pressure on Hankou for more than half a month.
After a pause, Zhong Yi said again: "Next, the Japanese will definitely launch a crazy attack on Hankou. From now on, each brigade must work hard and not slack off!"
"Yes!" Zhu Liangcheng and the other four responded suddenly.
¡¡
At the same time, at the headquarters in Chongqing.
Principal Chang came to the headquarters again.
And this time, Bai Chongbei also rushed back to Chongqing from the Hubei front line.
Because as the main force of the Second Army moved outside Hankou City, the Japanese 15th and 17th Divisions, which had been attacking outwards before, began to actively shrink their forces to ensure the safety of the eastern section of the Longhai Railway and the entire Pinghan Railway. Because this The two railway lines are now the lifeline of the Second Army of Higashikanomiya Nurihiko!
As the Japanese army shrunk, the pressure on the fifth theater of war dropped sharply.
The Third Corps, the Fourth Corps, and the various directly affiliated units of the Fifth Theater Zone, which had been struggling, finally had a precious respite!
It is precisely because of this that Bai Chongbei was able to return to Chongqing.
"The principal is here!" Accompanied by a long howl from the attendant, Principal Chang walked quickly into the operations hall of the headquarters.
The senior generals and senior staff officers who were discussing the war situation in Wuhan in the hall all stood up and stood at attention.
"You don't have to be formal, please feel free to do so." Principal Chang pressed his hands weakly, stood in front of the sand table, and then asked Liu Sheng, who was standing next to him, "Weizhang, has the situation been confirmed?"
"Reply to the principal, it has been confirmed!" Liu Sheng replied, "The Japanese Second Army, except for the 15th and 17th three-unit guard divisions that stayed behind to protect the logistics supply line, has been removed and has been attacked The annihilated Third Division, the remaining four main divisions and a large number of directly-affiliated troops have gathered in the north of Hankou City!"
"Really?" Principal Chang's face instantly became solemn, and he asked again, "How many people are there specifically?"
Liu Shengdao: "Based on all aspects of intelligence, we judge that the Japanese army has no less than 150,000 troops!"
"What, 150,000 people?!" Principal Chang's face suddenly became a little embarrassed when he heard this.
You must know that in the second stage of the Battle of Songhu, the Japanese army only had 60,000 troops, but they defeated the Central Army's more than 300,000 troops in a panic!
In the second stage of the Battle of Xuzhou, the Japanese army only numbered 200,000, but forced millions of Chinese troops to evacuate in an emergency!
This means that even if the strength ratio reaches 5:1, the national army has almost no chance of winning!
But now, the 70,000 people in the ten brigades under the Wuhan Garrison Headquarters are facing 150,000 Japanese troops. The strength comparison between the two sides has reached a terrifying 1:2. Thinking about it makes people shudder!
This is probably the first time since the Sino-Japanese war broke out that the Chinese army has used less to attack more, right?
Considering that Wuhan is divided into three defense zones, the Hankou defense zone only has four brigades, and the difference in strength between the Chinese and Japanese armies is even greater. Principal Chang simply cannot imagine how to fight the next battle to defend Hankou?
Before the main force of the Second Army of Dong Jiure Palace Nianyan pressed on the border, Principal Chang was still very confident in Zhong Yi, but now, his confidence has been shaken. Can Zhong Yi really hold Wuhan? (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
