    Starting from Dachen Town, the Japanese advance began to become difficult.

    In two days, the Japanese army only advanced 20 kilometers.

    When the news reached the Thirteenth Army Headquarters in Shanghai, Ishihara Wanji felt incredible.

    "Twenty kilometers?" Ishihara Wanji stared at the map and said in disbelief, "Both the Guards Division and the 1st Division, they only advanced twenty kilometers in two days?"

    "Baga, this is simply unbelievable, simply unimaginable!"

    Okamura Neji shook his head and said, "Incredible, right?"

    After a pause, Okamura Neji said again: "But it's actually not surprising at all."

    "Nani?" Ishihara smiled and said, "Okamura-kun is not surprised at all by this?"

    "Yes, I'm not surprised at all." Okamura Neiji nodded and said, "Because this is not the first time this has happened. This happened in the first and second Zhejiang-Fujian battles.  "

    "Nani? We have already encountered this situation in the first Zhejiang-Fujian War?" Ishihara Wan'er said in astonishment, "Then why don't you take the general management seriously, learn from experience and lessons, and then make improvements in the second Zhejiang-Fujian War?  "

    "We have summarized and learned lessons." Okamura Neiji sighed and said, "However, there is still nothing we can do in the face of the flexible defense tactics of the China Army."

    "Elastic defense?" Ishihara smiled, "Is this tactic called elastic defense?"

    "Yes, elastic defense." Okamura Neiji said, "This tactic is fundamentally different from the defensive tactics widely adopted by the China Army on other battlefields."

    "Most of the Chinese troops in other battlefields will only defend passively."

    "But the Chinese Army in the Zhejiang-Fujian battlefield has more flexible defensive tactics."

    "The Chinese Army on the Zhejiang-Fujian battlefield will keep a safe distance from the Imperial Army. To be precise, it will keep a safe distance from the Imperial Army's artillery troops!"

    "Once the Imperial Army's artillery units advance forward, the Chinese Army will retreat."

    "But the Chinese Army will not retreat too far. If they retreat ten kilometers, they will stop and re-build their defense line."

    "Then when the imperial artillery advances, they will retreat again, and they will still only retreat ten kilometers. Of course, ten kilometers is only an approximate value. In actual battles, it is not static."

    Ishihara Wanji frowned and said: "This flexible defense tactic of the China Army is indeed very cunning. It can be said that it effectively evaded the artillery firepower of the Imperial Army. However, without the artillery, wouldn't the Imperial Army become incapable of attacking?  ? Even without artillery, can the Guards Division and the 1st Division not be able to defeat the China Army?"

    Okamura Neiji sighed and said: "Of course it is not impossible to defeat the China Army, but it is an indisputable fact that we do not have the upper hand."

    After a pause, Okamura Neiji continued: "Ishihara-kun, you don't know something. Since Zhong Yi ordered dozens of divisions' art equipment from the United States, the individual equipment of the China Army in the Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone has surpassed that of the Imperial Army.  Army, one of its infantry divisions has more than 80 heavy machine guns, more than 200 light machine guns, and more than 200 mortars. Do you dare to imagine?"

    "Nani?" Ishihara Wanji took a breath after hearing this, "An infantry division has more than 80 heavy machine guns, more than 200 light machine guns, and more than 200 small-caliber mortars? Is it possible?"

    "I didn't want to believe it at first, but it's true!" Okamura Neji said.

    "Baga!" Ishihara smiled, "No wonder the Guards Division and the 1st Division performed poorly."

    Okamura Neiji said with a wry smile: "The imperial army now only has some advantages in artillery firepower, so if the artillery cannot keep up in time, the infantry attack will be severely frustrated immediately! Whether it is the previous Guards Division or the current Third  The 1st Division, even if the 2nd Division is pushed up, the performance will not be much better."

    "This is determined by the small arms firepower of both the enemy and ourselves!"

    "No matter how tenacious the imperial army's fighting will is, it can't make up for the gap in firepower between the two sides!"

    "What's more, the two Zhejiang-Fujian battles have fully proved that the Chinese army's fighting will is not inferior to the imperial army at all. They fight for the country and the nation, and their will is even more determined than the imperial army!"

    "Soga." Ishihara smiled and said, "Okamura-kun, I understand if you say that."

    "So." Okamura Neji said, "At the beginning of the battle, there is really no need to rush."

    "That's right, you really can't be in a hurry." Ishihara Wanji nodded, convinced, "Then in the first stage, let the Guards Division and the 1st Division fight steadily and advance towards Jinhua little by little. In addition,, the 5th Division and the 2nd Division can also attack and advance towards Xinchang County and Shengxian County to protect the right wing of the Guards Division.  "

    "The 8th Division and the 22nd Division must also attack forward from Tonglu, which can not only protect the left wing of the main force in the center, but also threaten the flank and rear of the China Army from the north bank of the Fuchun River."

    "As for the 15th Division and the 17th Division"

    Ishihara Wanji said no more.

    However, Ishihara Kanji's unfulfilled intentions were already obvious. Okamura Neji also felt that after the 15th and 17th Divisions experienced two consecutive disastrous defeats, both their military morale and fighting spirit were severely weakened.  The troops are no longer suitable to go to the front line again to participate in major battles, so it is better to let them stay in the rear and serve as guards.

    ¡­¡­

    Jinhua Lanxi, Chief of the Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone.

    After a busy morning, the operational staff of the general staff have fully displayed the latest situation between the enemy and ourselves.

    From the sand table and map, it can be clearly seen that the Japanese Thirteenth Army was divided into three attack groups. In the middle was the Guards Division and the 1st Division, advancing southward from Zhuji County, and the troops were approaching Yiwu.  .

    On the right are the 2nd Division and the 5th Division, pointing directly at Xinchang and Shengxian County.

    On the left are the 8th Division and the 22nd Division. This route of Japanese troops starts from Tonglu and along the north bank of the Fuchun River, pointing directly at Jiande County and even Lanxi, where the Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone Chief's Headquarters is located.

    In addition, there are two divisions and a mixed brigade remaining in the rear to serve as security.

    Facing the sand table, Yu Liangzhen sighed: "This is the advantage of having sufficient troops. This time the Japs gathered eight divisions and one mixed brigade, forming heavy troop groups in almost every direction. This made us very passive, no matter what.  It¡¯s not easy to bite the Japanese troops anywhere, trouble, trouble.¡±

    Qian Xiaojun frowned subconsciously when he heard this.

    As the commander-in-chief of the Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone, Yu Liangzhen¡¯s words are undoubtedly very inappropriate.

    Because once this word spreads, it will definitely severely dampen the morale of frontline officers and soldiers.

    Qian Xiaojun then continued: "But fortunately, our troops are also very sufficient. We have also left heavy enemy groups in three directions. On the right, there is even a new force of the 10th Group Army.  !¡± (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
