Chapter 1185: A Difficult Winter
"Commander, are you still worried about the war?" The army commander looked at Hu Guoshan's face was not very good, except for the war that could make him worry, there was nothing that could make Hu Guoshan worry so much.
"Your army is now guarding Tonghua, which is the most critical point, to guard against the little devil dog jumping off the wall! I have asked Lao Ma's troops to respond to you, and once there is a storm, you must not be reckless! ”
What Hu Guoshan needs now is to fight steadily, and during the battle of Tonghua, Ma Wanzhong and the others did not encounter the situation they wanted.
After all, the situation on the battlefield is not something that Hu Guoshan can say, and no one thought that at a critical time, the commander-in-chief of the little devil chose to flee instead of fighting.
Tonghua is still the key to the entire battlefield, maybe the little devil will jump over the wall in a hurry, and in the case of winter forced to do so, the raid on Tonghua will once again open up the road to North Manchuria.
So Hu Guoshan had to guard against it, and put Ma Wanzhong's them on the flank of Tonghua to guard against the Japanese army!
"Don't worry, Commander, when I came to you, I had already visited Commander Ma, and we planned to guard against the little devils, at least if the little devils dared to go to us, they would definitely let them go and never return."
"Commander-in-Chief, when will we be able to attack Fushun? Now the whole army is of one heart and one mind, and the supplies are also sufficient, otherwise we will take the opportunity to take back Fushun while the little devil is not full of food now! ”
The army commander stood where he was and waited for a while, and when he saw that Hu Guoshan was unwilling to speak, he began to propose that their army should be the main attack, and he promised that the battle in Fushun would be over this winter.
"The Japanese army in Fushun is not to worry, what can really cause us damage is the Japanese army in Mukden and Lushun, the real combat effectiveness of these two Japanese troops in South Manchuria!"
Once there is a war in Fushun, the Japanese army in Lushun and Mukden will inevitably support, and the truth of the cold lips and teeth is not only understood by Hu Guoshan.
To break through Fushun, Hu Guoshan's goal will inevitably be Fengtian and Lushun!
After the First Battle of Tonghua, Hu Guoshan once thought about whether to give up Fushun and solve the problem of Fengtian and Lushun first! People are persimmons who pick soft pinching, and Hu Guoshan wants to have a hard fight with the little devil!
As long as Lushun and Fengtian are solved, the little devils in Fushun can't be tossed no matter how they toss, even if Hu Guoshan doesn't attack Fushun, the little devils can't hold on.
On the contrary, if they attack Fushun first, Fushun will be a difficult problem in front of them, not only to guard against the Japanese reinforcements in Lushun and Mukden, but also to prevent a battle in Fushun that will not be short.
"Commander, we have a clear understanding of the situation in Fushun, as long as you give an order, I guarantee that the little devil city will be destroyed!"
Every day, intelligence officers come out from Fushun to spread the situation of the Japanese army, and they are as familiar with the Japanese army in Fushun as their own kangtou, and they can win this battle no matter how they fight.
"I know that you kid is stunned when you fight, you don't want to die when you fight in Taihang Mountain, such a big China is not fought by not dying, use your brains more, we don't have many soldiers along the way?"
Don't forget your original intention, since the beginning of the battle in the Northeast, Hu Guoshan has been trying to minimize the casualties on his side!
Their warriors could not be pushed into the fire pit for the sake of a small Fushun, especially in winter, when the wounds of the soldiers were not easy to treat.
"Commander, don't talk about me, there are so many army commanders under your hands, I'm afraid that when the time comes, it won't be our army's turn to attack the main attack, and when the task is snatched away by others, I will feel uncomfortable!"
War brings pain to the people and death to the soldiers, but it is also accompanied by honor! Some troops became famous because of a battle, and some people entered the center of power because of a battle!
Who wants the great credit to be smashed on their own head instead of being picked up by others.
"You kid knows exactly what he thinks in his heart, but I want to tell you, if there is a little problem in Tonghua, don't ask for your kid's head, now there is no shortage of commanders in the army, and there are a lot of knowledgeable and capable officers!"
Subordinates fighting for merit are very common in the army! Hu Guoshan can't consider him into the ranks of improper intentions because of this.
But he had to remind this army commander that the current army was not the army they had when they were in Taihang Mountain!
A large number of cadets have entered the army, and these cadets have received a formal education, although experience is very important, but sometimes experience can really be imparted, especially with the development of modern troops, what is needed in the army is no longer from this kind of mud legs.
It is necessary to let these old people in the army have a sense of crisis, so that they can make progress, instead of fighting a few battles and making a few military merits to have no worries in the army.
Moreover, at the last meeting in the south, Liao Fan had clearly told Hu Guoshan that when the war in the northeast was over, they would disarm, at least 200,000 people!
These 200,000 people are not just laying off soldiers, but also officers are being cut in proportion, and some soldiers may also be in the ranks of disarmament, of course, it depends on whether Liao Fan speaks or not.
As long as Liao Fan speaks, even the commander of the group army will be laid off.
"By the way, the Ministry of Health has sent a batch of medicines, and when you go back this time, build a hospital in Tonghua City, this hospital is not only for the army, but also for the people!"
After Hu Guoshan called Fu Hongyu last time, Fu Hongyu deployed almost all the resources in the country to support the Northeast Military Region, and after the medicine was loaded by train, it was transported to the front line non-stop.
Especially the most basic medicines, not only the army needs, but also the people, for example, they regained Tonghua, the people there have no food and no clothing, if they are left alone, it is very likely that they will not survive this winter.
"Commander, send us another 100,000 sets of cotton clothes! Tonghua's houses are in ruins, even if there is medicine, you can't keep out the cold, let alone eat! ”
In the First World War of Tonghua, more than eighty percent of the houses in the city were destroyed. The people have no place to live, so they naturally suffer from cold and hunger!
"Didn't the logistics department send someone over?" Hu Guoshan asked curiously.
After the recovery of Tonghua, the logistics department sent troops over to help the people rebuild their homes, and this matter was also supervised by special personnel, and no one dared to fish into their own pockets.
"Hey, Commander, you didn't go to Tonghua to take a look, you don't know the situation in Tonghua at all! During the war, the common people ran away, but after this recovery, a large number of people came back, and some of them did not know whether they were originally Tonghua or not, and they all entered the city, and we can't ignore it! ”
Some of the original people of Tonghua died in the war, and some left their homes! It's all a last resort.
But I heard that after Tonghua was recovered, the people came back, and of course there were some citizens who were not in Tonghua City in the first place!
In line with the principle of calming the people and restoring order in the city, they must first settle the people, especially this winter, if a person is frozen to death, it is the responsibility of him, the army commander.
There is a big difference between the plan and the actual situation, and the construction of private houses cannot keep up with the needs of the people, so the people can only be gathered together first, but cotton clothes are also a huge gap.
"It seems that we take this too seriously, Lao Zhao, why didn't I listen to the logistics department report to us on this matter?"
The lack of supplies should have been reported to them by the Minister of Logistics.
"Lao Hu, you have been holding back in the house for too long, you have time to go out and see the troops, now the logistics department is the busiest, supplying the troops, maintaining local law and order, receiving prisoners of war, and comforting the people...... Let the logistics department do all these things! ”
Zhao Caizhu is not speaking for the logistics department, in the northeast they have recovered a lot of lost territory, and the administrative staff has not yet come, so the maintenance of the local affairs can only rely on the army.
And the combat units are confronting the Japanese army, so many things need to be done by the soldiers of the logistics department.
In one winter, the logistics department has to deliver materials to the front line, and it has to maintain the local area to help the people rebuild their homes, and the logistics department will definitely be busy this winter!
"Looks like we really need support!"
Only then did Hu Guoshan realize that they had handed over a mess to the brothers in the logistics department, and they were only thinking about the war ahead, forgetting that what they needed more was to revitalize the land.
"Brother Fan is no longer in the country now!" Zhao Caizhu reminded.
"This matter can be done by Lao Sun, he is now in charge of the money, food, soldiers and horses of various military regions, this kid is very rich after the founding of the People's Republic of China!"
Hu Guoshan is of course talking about Sun Boyong, when he was in Taihang Mountain, Sun Boyong was their big housekeeper, and all kinds of materials were deployed by him.
Now Sun Boyong has become the chief steward of the five military regions, and the money, grain, soldiers and horses are all handed over to Sun Boyong to be in charge, and then Sun Boyong will deploy the five military regions.
"Well, then I'll go and call Lao Sun, tell him about our difficulties here, and see how much he can support!" Zhao Caizhu said.
Sun Boyong's materials are not just support, he is not only Hu Guoshan's big housekeeper now, but also the big housekeeper of the other four military regions, once everyone has opinions on the distribution of materials, Sun Boyong is not easy to do.
Therefore, Sun Boyong wants a bowl of water to be leveled, at least he can't let the other four military regions have opinions.
However, Sun Boyong is Sun Boyong after all, and it is not in vain that he has been a big housekeeper in Taihang Mountain for so long, and now the whole country is supporting the Northeast Military Region's operation against the Japanese army, how can he take it lightly.
"The survival of the people is a big matter, if the commanders of the other four military regions have opinions, ask them to come to me Sun Boyong, or go to Brother Fan!"
After leaving Taihang Mountain, Sun Boyong was also a little domineering, after all, there were more and more resources in his hands, and his waist was getting harder and harder.
Unlike when they were in Taihang Mountain, they searched poorly, just like beggars, and they couldn't wait to break the flowers for a penny!
Although he is still not so rich, Sun Boyong has everything here except money, food, weapons, ammunition and medicine, and there is no shortage of clothes, which is enough for a city person to spend the winter.
After receiving the news that the Northeast Military Region needed cotton clothes and quilts, Sun Boyong personally ordered the deployment of 100,000 sets of cotton clothes and quilts to be loaded and transported to the Northeast immediately.
