As soon as the appointment was issued, Zhong Yi immediately began to establish the temporary headquarters of the India-Burma theater.
With Zhong Yi¡¯s strong recommendation, Wang Geng was appointed as the Chief of Staff of the India-Burma Theater by the Ministry of Military Affairs, and Wen Yingxing was also appointed as the Logistics Minister of the India-Burma Theater.
"Brother Hesun, I'm going to have to work hard for you next." Zhong Yi didn't politely greet Wen Yingxing and said directly, "The top priority is mainly two things, one is food rations!"
"Don't expect anything from the Ministry of Military Affairs. It's impossible for them to allocate military rations to us."
"So I can only ask you to go buy food along the Sichuan-Yunnan Highway."
"In addition to enough rations for 400,000 strong men, we must also prepare as many vegetables and meat dishes as possible."
"Don't worry about money. I will give you 50 million first. If it is not enough, you can tell me. In short, I have only one request for you. There must be no attrition due to hunger."
"Yes." Wen Yingxing stood at attention and responded solemnly.
Wen Yingxing is a talented person. As soon as he was appointed, he no longer regarded himself as Zhong Yi's senior. Instead, he quickly stepped into the role and regarded Zhong Yi as his superior.
After a pause, Wen Yingxing added: "In addition to rations, do we also need to prepare military uniforms? After all, it is winter now, and it is impossible for the strong men to prepare their own cotton military uniforms for the winter."
"There is no need for military uniforms." Zhong Yi shook his head and said, "The climate in Myanmar is hot, so it is useless to prepare cotton military uniforms. Moreover, there are British uniforms over there, and they will be distributed uniformly after arriving in Myanmar."
"Okay." Wen Yingxing nodded and said, "Then I'll get ready first."
After saying that, Wen Yingxing left in a hurry, preparing to take people to the Sichuan-Yunnan border to purchase military rations.
Zhong Yi then turned his attention to Wang Geng and said: "Brother Shouqing, your current tasks are mainly two. One is to select a group of students from the fifth period of the special class and urgently form a staff, and the other is to formulate a Myanmar defense plan as soon as possible. , how to block the first wave of Japanese offensive with the existing strength of the four group armies."
Wang Geng said in astonishment: "Draw up a defense plan now?"
"Yes, make a defense plan now." Zhong Yi said solemnly, "The plan must be done before the 22nd, 23rd, 27th and 30th Group armies arrive in Myanmar, otherwise we will wait until the troops arrive in Myanmar to make plans It¡¯s too late.¡±
Wang Geng frowned and said, "But the problem is, we don't even know how many Japanese troops we need to face?"
"It can be estimated." Zhong Yi said in a deep voice, "According to reliable information, the total strength of Japan's Southern Army is approximately 20 combat divisions and more than 500,000 people. Its main combat directions are divided into four to five. So use The maximum number of troops fighting in the direction of Myanmar is about five divisions, and in the early stage, the maximum number is two divisions."
Wang Geng nodded and said: "Then make a defense plan based on two divisions?"
"Well, let's make a plan based on two divisions." Zhong Yi nodded, "The premise is that the Japanese army cannot enter Myanmar, especially Yangon must not be lost! If Yangon is lost, the China-Myanmar Highway will also be cut off. , by then not only will the entire National Government be in a very difficult situation, but the situation in our India-Burma theater will also become very unfavorable."
"Okay." Wang Geng said, "I will draw up a defense plan as soon as possible."
While he was talking, Adjutant Zhang Shiliang came in and reported: "Chief Commander, Commander Yang, Commander Deng, Commander Pan and Commander Wang are outside the gate asking for an audience."
"You're here just in time." Zhong Yi nodded and said, "Invite them in."
After a while, Yang Sen, Deng Xihou, Pan Wenhua and Wang Lingji walked in together.
"Brother Ziren, eh, I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it." Yang Sen laughed and said, "We actually have a chance to fight the Japanese under your command."
Although Deng Xihou, Pan Wenhua and Wang Lingji didn't say anything, they looked excited.
¡°Obviously, Deng Xihou and the others were very much looking forward to being able to go out of the national army to fight the Japanese under the command of Zhong Yi.
By the way, Deng Xihou¡¯s 22nd Army, Pan Wenhua¡¯s 23rd Army, Yang Sen¡¯s 27th Army and Wang Lingji¡¯s 30th Army are resting in Hunan Province.
Deng Xihou, Pan Wenhua, Yang Sen and Wang Lingji were also studying in the general class.
"It's just that Deng Xihou and others studied in the Class A general officer class, while their army commanders and division commanders studied in the Class B general officer class.
So as soon as they heard that Zhong Yi was ordered to form the India-Burma Theater and that their four armies had been assigned to the India-Burma Theater, the four of them immediately came to visit together.
"Commander Yang, Commander Deng, Commander Pan and Commander Wang." Zhong ?? Said in a sincere tone, "I won't say any more. I will just say one thing. This time we go abroad to fight the war, it is not only about the face of the Chinese people, but also about the life and death of the entire country. Therefore, we must unite sincerely and Let¡¯s get through this difficult time together!¡±
"There's nothing to say." Pan Wenhua sighed, "We Sichuan people have nothing to say in a national war."
"The enemy." Deng Xihou also said with emotion, "We Sichuan people have nothing but a few hard bones."
Wang Lingji also said: "In the past, the Chinese people laughed at us Sichuan people who only knew how to fight in the nest, but now, we will tell them with hard facts that we Sichuan people are no worse than anyone else in the national war!"
"Okay, very good!" Zhong Yi stretched out his hands and shook hands with the four of them.
Zhong Yi still has expectations for Deng Xihou, Yang Sen, Pan Wenhua and Wang Lingji.
Needless to say, Pan Wenhua was selected as Liu Xiang's designated successor. His character and ability are both first-class. He can be said to be a top presence among the many senior generals of the Sichuan Army.
I won¡¯t talk about the character of Yang Sen, Deng Xihou and Wang Lingji, but their abilities are still quite good.
Yang Sen¡¯s 27th Group Army and Deng Xihou¡¯s 22nd Group Army actually performed very well in the Battle of Songhu. Principal Chang¡¯s Central Army was well-equipped, but its performance was far inferior to that of the Sichuan Army!
Therefore, Zhong Yi has reason to believe that the four of them can perform well in the India-Myanmar battlefield.
However, considering the practical needs, forget about the army commanders and division commanders under their command.
Zhong Yi plans to replace all the corps commanders and division commanders in the Sichuan Army. A large number of students in the fifth batch of the special class will take up the position of division commanders in the Indian and Burmese Army!
¡°But this matter must have the support of Yang Sen and others.
At that moment, Zhong Yi said: "Four commanders-in-chief, I have something to discuss with you."
Yang Sen said calmly: "Zi Ren, just say it, we will definitely do it!"
"Okay, Commander-in-Chief Yang is happy." Zhong Yi nodded and said, "Then let me tell you straight, I want Fan Ziying and others to continue studying in the second phase of the General Officer Class B, the original 22nd, 23rd, and 27th As well as the 17 division commanders of the 30th Group Army, as well as the 23 division commanders after the expansion, all are selected from the students of the fifth batch of special classes. What do you think?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
