    The hard power of the national army determines that at this time, they have no ability to take the initiative to launch an attack.  Even if you attack in front of you, you will only pay a huge price.

    ¡°But Commander-in-Chief Li was too embarrassed to tell the truth directly, so as not to make this young man unable to step down.  And he also knew that this person who was promoted to the position of division commander at such a young age probably had some background.

    Therefore, Commander-in-Chief Li did not say anything more, but looked around the crowd. Finally, he stretched out his hand, pointed at a person and said: "Commander Xia, I see that you have been looking this way. There should be something different."  What¡¯s your opinion!¡±

    Xia Yang was stunned for a moment. He had been talking to Dai Anlan with his head lowered. Where was he looking this way?

    But since Commander-in-Chief Li said this, he obviously believed in himself.

    So he took a step forward under the gaze of everyone, but his heart was beating a drum, thinking, what should I say?

    He thought about it, and thought that if he told his true thoughts, he would probably be accused of being a person who wants to embolden others, destroy his prestige, or even label him as a "surrenderer."

    "But if you don't say it, Commander Li and so many people are watching, isn't Xia Yang telling others clearly that I am a waste and can't even come up with a decent point of view?"

    After careful consideration, Xia Yang decided to tell the truth.

    "I think we shouldn't attack! Now we can only defend! Although, even if Xuzhou City adopts a defensive posture, it can only fall into the hands of the little devils!"

    As soon as Xia Yang said this, there was an uproar in the command room!

    "Aren't you trying to embolden other people's ambitions and destroy your own prestige? You are a complete capitulationist!"

    "When you say this, why don't you just go to the Japanese and become a traitor?"

    Some people shouted loudly, but a considerable number of people chose to remain silent.

    These silent people are actually people who have clearly seen the current situation and situation.

    They knew that what Xia Yang said was not wrong.

    In fact, before the Battle of Songhu started, many people at the top of the national army were full of confidence in winning the Battle of Songhu.

    But later on, everyone knew the final result.  They can only say that defeat is not that ugly.  But that was all. After the entire battle, they didn't even see any hope of victory.

    But even so, many people still have some confidence in winning the Battle of Xuzhou.

    Especially the top leaders of the Kuomintang, this time they mobilized four to five million troops to defend Xuzhou.  The fifth theater of war deployed all its main forces in order to defend Xuzhou, the hub of north-south transportation.

    So although some people realize the seriousness of the situation, they don't want to believe that on the Xuzhou battlefield, they don't even have the strength to fight back. At least they have some hope of victory, rather than having no counterattack in front of the Japanese army.  ability.

    Precisely because of such a sense of luck, some generals did not hesitate to criticize Xia Yang after hearing his remarks.

    Commander-in-Chief Li said: "Brigadier Xia might as well tell you what you think."

    After hearing this, Xia Yang said: "Our army is on the defensive not because of strategic and tactical issues, but because we have to be on the defensive. In terms of hard power, we are at a disadvantage compared with the Japanese army. If we rashly take the initiative to attack, we will only  causing greater losses.

    Even if we adopt a defensive strategy, the huge gap in strength will inevitably lead to failure in the battle to defend Xuzhou.

    But what I want to say is that in the process of such failure, we were able to win some battles or battles, consume the effective strength of the Japanese army to the greatest extent, and also maximize our advantages.

    There is a misunderstanding in many of our minds.  For example, as the general said just now, he took the initiative to attack and wanted to defeat the Japanese army as quickly as possible.

    However, the cruel reality has told us that it is almost impossible to quickly defeat the Japanese army.  Therefore, we can only carry out a protracted battle with the Japanese army.

    It doesn¡¯t matter if Xuzhou is lost, it doesn¡¯t matter if Shanghai is lost, and it doesn¡¯t matter if Taiyuan is lost.

    The key is that we can use every city, every village and town to resist the Japanese attack step by step, making the Japanese pay a huge price for every step forward.

    At this time, the Japanese offensive was fierce, but after another year of consumption, or even two years of consumption, they could still maintain such a fierce attack.?Offensive?

    At that time, we will consider taking the initiative to attack, and then consider how to take back the land occupied by the Japanese army, instead of talking on paper now, talking about taking the initiative to attack, or quickly winning the war against Japan.  "

    Hearing this, the national army officers present fell into silence.

    Because everything Xia Yang said, although very cruel, is an indisputable fact.

    Similarly, Commander-in-Chief Li was pleasantly surprised by what Xia Yang said.

    Because in the past period of time, they have always thought about how to win quickly?  But I didn't expect that this would be a long war.  The test is who of the two sides has greater determination and greater war potential.

    From the very beginning of the war, this war was destined to be a protracted war.

    Xia Yang¡¯s words may sound like capitulationism to some people.

    But in Commander Li¡¯s view, Xia Yang¡¯s words provided a new way of thinking for their operations.

    They should not always think about how to win a big battle, but should think about it.  How to consume the effective strength of the Japanese army to the greatest extent, and at the same time concentrate their superior forces to achieve some small-scale battle victories.

    But before Commander-in-Chief Li could speak, the young division commander who had been refuted by Xia Yang stood up and said: "Commander Xia, what you said is wrong. As the art of war says, it is always best to use offense instead of defense.  With such a passive defense, when will we be able to win against the Japs?"

    Xia Yang glanced at him and wondered, has this person ever fought in a war?  He doesn't even know what the little devil looks like!  Take the initiative to fight back, you don¡¯t even look at what time it is, you¡¯re just fighting back!

    But of course he couldn¡¯t say this kind of complaining.

    "It is natural to use offense as defense. But the key to the problem now is that our weapons and equipment lag behind theirs, and the quality of our soldiers is also different from theirs. Even the command capabilities of grassroots officers are still far behind theirs. In  In this case, how can we attack? Should we launch a banzai charge like they did?"

    Xia Yang didn't care what military rank this man had, and retorted mercilessly.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
