    The troops heading north to Shandong is a brand new journey for Li Guoyao himself and the entire army, because from this moment on, the troops will transform from the frontal battlefield to the battlefield behind enemy lines, and large-scale positional defense warfare will also turn into guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare, and the competition will also be  It is not just the defense capability or attack ability of the troops, but also the comprehensive combat capability.

    More importantly, there are still four months until the National Government establishes the Sulu Theater and starts work, and in a short period of time there will be a blank period for the development of Li Guoyao's department.

    Li Guoyao believed that by the time Yu Xuezhong, Shen Honglie, Han Deqin and others officially arrived at the border of southern Shandong, his guerrilla force behind enemy lines had already established a firm foothold in Shandong.

    Once the army has its own base and the support of the system, Li Guoyao believes that he no longer needs to look at other people's faces to act.

    In fact, the troops have been following the Japanese offensive for more than a year, obeying the dispatches of various theaters of the Nationalist Government. Sometimes they belong to the third theater, sometimes they belong to the first theater, and they don't even have a formal place to stay.  The more he fights, the less he fights, and even his number is revoked. This is really not what Li Guoyao wants to see.

    It¡¯s not that Li Guoyao didn¡¯t know about Chiang Kai-shek¡¯s little tricks, but the situation forced him to endure it. In order for the country and the nation to be independent and liberated this morning, and to drive the little devils out of China as soon as possible, Li Guoyao could only endure it in many cases.  .

    However, once the army has its own base, there are some things that you no longer need to endure!

    After the meeting, Li Guoyao returned to his residence alone, feeling a little heavy.

    The Battle of Wuhan is now completely over. After more than half a year of fierce fighting, the Chinese army finally failed to defend the city of Wuhan.

    In this battle, Li Guoyao's troops went from more than 30,000 people at their peak to only 6,000 people in front of them, and now they have more than 3,000 people. It can be said that they suffered heavy losses, but it does not mean that there is no resistance from Li Guoyao and others.  meaningful.

    The Battle of Wuhan lasted for nearly half a year. As far as the battle was concerned, the Japanese army occupied three towns in Wuhan and controlled the heart of China and achieved victory.  But in terms of strategy, Japan has failed to realize its strategic intentions.

    Before the war, the Japanese base camp believed that as long as Hankou and Guangzhou were captured, they could dominate China, so the Japanese Imperial Council decided to launch the Battle of Wuhan and quickly capture Wuhan to force the Chinese government to surrender.

    To this end, the Japanese government also stipulated that it must concentrate its national strength to achieve the purpose of the war within this year, and claimed to end the war against China.  However, the Chinese government did not surrender due to the fall of Wuhan and Guangzhou, nor did Japan's war of aggression against China end due to the Japanese occupation of Wuhan and Guangzhou.

    Even after the war, the Chinese government clearly mentioned in its statement after the fall of Wuhan: "Short-term changes in advance and retreat must not shake our country's determination to resist the war The gains and losses of any city must not affect the overall situation of the war of resistance  The military and civilians across the country must be more compassionate, more persevering, more practical, more diligent, and more courageous, and strive for a comprehensive and protracted war of resistance"

    In the rear areas occupied by the Japanese army, a large number of anti-Japanese people's armed forces grew up, and large tracts of land were recovered.

    Therefore, it can be said that the Battle of Wuhan not only caused another strategic defeat for the Japanese army, but also became a turning point for Japan from strategic offensive to strategic conservatism.

    After the Battle of Wuhan, the Japanese army, which was already feeling insufficient in strength, felt increasingly inadequate as the front was extended. It was unable to organize large-scale strategic offensives with the goal of capturing cities and territories like the battles of Songhu, Xuzhou and Wuhan, and was forced to  Turn strategically conservative.

    This caused China's war of resistance to develop from a strategic defense stage to a strategic stalemate stage, and the Japanese aggressor army fell into the quagmire of a protracted war that it was least willing to engage in, and was unable to extricate itself.

    This led to a change in Japan's policy of invading China, from focusing on military strikes and supplementing by political inducements to surrender, to focusing on political inducements and supplementing by military strikes. At the same time, it also changed from using the main force to conduct frontal battlefield operations to transferring forces.  "Security" operations on the battlefield behind enemy lines.

    In addition, Japan is an island country with a shortage of strategic materials and mainly relies on imports. At that time, Japan's economic strength was not very strong. According to Japanese military war history records, Japan's gold reserves during the July 7th Incident, including reserves for issuing banknotes, were all  Only 1.35 billion yen.

    For Japan, what restricts the scale of the war is actually its gold reserves, which means that Japan¡¯s real currency reserves have limited this war from the beginning.

    Japan deliberately launched this war, but also tried every means to "seek an early solution." In order to maintain the war of aggression against China, in 1937 alone JapanThe total amount of military supplies imported reached 960 million yen, but it was still far from being able to sustain the consumption of the front line.

    By June of the following year, in order to carry out the Battle of Wuhan, the Japanese army even took back the rifles used by school coaches to equip the expanded army.  Moreover, due to the continuous increase in soldiers, domestic labor, food, and energy are all insufficient.

    After the Wuhan Battle, Japan's military expenditures reached 6.156 billion yen, which far exceeded Japan's national reserves. As a result, "Japan's national power poverty has sharply surfaced" and it has lost the ability to fully guarantee the supply of military supplies to the army.

    As a result, after the Battle of Wuhan, the establishment, equipment, and combat effectiveness of the Japanese army dropped significantly compared to before the battle. This was why Japan had to change its political and military strategies in an attempt to "use China to control China" and "use war to support war."  important reason.

    For Li Guoyao himself, although he lost 90% of his army in this battle, so much so that he almost became a mere commander, the gains were still considerable.

    First of all, after half a year of fierce fighting, Li Guoyao's troops annihilated a large number of Japanese elites. Starting from shooting down more than a hundred Japanese fighter planes, Li Guoyao's troops successively experienced the Yong'an Water Battle, the Jiujiang Battle, the Honghualing Blockade, the surprise attack on Lu'an,  Outsmart Macheng and the final defense of Wuhan City.

    During this period, the Japanese troops that were completely wiped out by them included the 11th Regiment of the Japanese Navy, the Marine Corps, the Namada Detachment, the 65th Regiment of the 13th Division, the 33rd Regiment of the 16th Division, and the 60th Regiment of the 15th Division.  The team also includes the guard of Prince Higashikata Higashikata, commander of the Second Army.

    Troops severely damaged by Li Guoyao's troops included the Japanese 106th Division, 27th Division, and the 23rd Regiment of the 6th Division. According to system statistics, during the entire battle, Li Guoyao's troops wiped out more than 22,000 Japanese troops.  They shot down 184 Japanese fighter planes, destroyed 259 Japanese tanks of various types, and destroyed or captured 275 Japanese large-caliber field artillery pieces.

    This only counts the Japanese soldiers killed by the troops, and does not include the wounded. Not to mention that Li Guoyao also killed the commander and chief of staff of the Japanese Second Army in this battle.

    In addition to the huge military gains, Li Guoyao also seized multiple Japanese logistics bases during this period, and the supplies seized were beyond imagination.

    Whether it was Jiujiang City, Lu'an City and later Macheng, Li Guoyao made a lot of money. Not counting the weapons and equipment that had been sold to the Fifth War Zone, the equipment accumulated in Huanghuazhai alone was enough to arm a full-sized army.  Full infantry corps.

    In addition, the troops also seized a large amount of gold, silver, jewelry, cultural relics, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, etc. The overall value is inestimable, which greatly supplemented the huge financial consumption of Yun Lisa.

    In addition, during the battle, Li Guoyao's troops completed a total of 3 main missions, 2 side missions and 2 hidden missions released by the system. In addition to additional rewards such as killing the Japanese prince, Li Guoyao received a total of 137,654 system points and 7 additional missions.  Raffle opportunities.

    And these are the capital that Li Guoyao dares to go to the battlefield behind enemy lines and go deep into the tiger's den. They are the basis for his comeback.

    So after returning to the temporary residence, Li Guoyao closed the door and opened the system interface. He wanted to draw a lottery!

    There is no way, the troops have suffered too much loss, and they were tricked by Chiang Kai-shek. Now they are at their weakest. If they want to quickly restore their combat effectiveness, they can only rely on the system.

    Moreover, the troops will go to Shandong to develop and open up a new anti-Japanese base area. Hundreds and thousands of people alone are not enough. They also need some special equipment and technical support. This is what Li Guoyao currently hopes to get.  For example, a military industrial construction order or a base construction order.

    ps: Brothers, during this period of time, I am participating in activities in other places. The manuscripts are written in advance and updated regularly. Since the activities are quite tight, there is no way to update them, which is really helpless.  The event ends this afternoon. I will fly home tomorrow morning and start updating, so stay tuned!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
