Chapter 860 Chapter 4 Return to Taihang Mountain

"It's time to return the rights to the local people in Shanxi!"

The time to recover Shanxi is not short, in addition to the military industry, the local livelihood industry has been regularized, no longer supervised by the army, the power is handed over to the local people, and then the people supervise the local industry, this is the best choice.

"You haven't been back to the artillery division for a long time, and the weapons of the unit are facing upgrading, we have to train soldiers to adapt to the new weapons, only by mastering the new weapons, and then with the new tactics, can we give full play to our maximum combat effectiveness!"

The renewal of weapons will inevitably lead to changes in tactics, and if the new weapons are paired with the old tactics, it may be that the soldiers will die, and while the weapons are updated, they must retrain the fighters!

There is also an advantage to retraining the troops, which is to reacquaint the troops with the capabilities of their commanders! Some officers have thought that everything is all right since they became commanders, and they do not want to make progress! Taking advantage of the reform of the army, it is good to find those officers in the army who are messing around, and remove all the moths, so that the small saplings can grow into towering trees.

While the New 33rd Army was changing its outfit on a large scale, the Japanese army still believed in their bushido spirit! China is now united to resist Japan, but there are big problems within the Japanese army, and the contradictions accumulated between the navy and the army have finally exploded!

Although the Japanese army has a strong navy, since the war with the magnesium country, the Japanese navy has been transferred to the Pacific theater to fight to the death with the powerful fleet of the magnesium country!

However, the Japanese army only used some small gunboats to carry people on the water, and it was already difficult to control the river network south of the Yangtze River in China, especially the problem of water transportation, and the Japanese army could only rely on manpower.

After re-settling Chongqing, Chairman Chiang finally convened a conference to recover Wuhan! However, before attacking, he needs to equip a large number of bazookas, and the bazookas naturally have to be purchased from Liao Fan!

For the first time, the New 33rd Army got an order at the military factory in Taihang Mountain, 10,000 bazookas, 100,000 shells, paid in cash! It was Xue Boling who came to Taihang Mountain to negotiate the contract with Liao Fan!

After Xue Boling held Changsha, his reputation became famous, and although the Chinese army suffered a lot of losses in the first battle of Changsha, Xue Boling commanded well, allowing hundreds of thousands of invading Japanese invaders to sink into the sand and return in vain!

"Ten thousand is not a small number, General Xue!"

The order is not small, the money is a lot, but 10,000 rocket launchers is really not a small number, although their military factories have carried out large-scale improvements, and the efficiency has been improved, but the production of weapons is not to build a stool, they must ensure the quality! If the quality of the weapons cannot be guaranteed, they will be sent to the battlefield, and the Chinese soldiers will be harmed in the end.

"How long will it take you?"

Xue Boling is also thunderous about Liao Fan's name, and everyone has an involuntary sense of admiration for the famous anti-Japanese generals, and Xue Boling is no exception.

"Two months!" Liao Fan roughly estimated that it would take them two months to be able to come up with so many products.

"Two months is too long, the time for the recovery of Wuhan is set in two months, and there is also no time to train soldiers in how to use bazookas!"

Chairman Chiang has appointed Xue Boling as the commander-in-chief of the operation to recover the Wuhan area, and all the troops in the area around Wuhan are at his disposal.

"Training soldiers is naturally not a problem! In the past half month, I will first take out 4,000 pieces from our army's inventory and send them to your army for training first! What time is the production of overtime on our side, and we will deliver it to you once every half a month! This will not delay the training of your soldiers, nor will you delay the next battle! ”

In half a month, 5,000 bazookas can be produced, and 10,000 bazookas are enough for Xue Boling's training, and when they wait for two months, the soldiers will be trained almost completely, and the battle will not be delayed at all!

Xue Boling lowered his head and thought for a while, there was no problem!

"Okay, just do what Commander Liao said, but this time I came to Taiyuan not only to buy weapons from your army, but also to learn from your Commander Liao!"

Xue Boling, as a soldier, has both a soldier's table and a soldier's inside! Although he single-handedly defeated the invading Japanese army on the battlefield, he never took credit for himself. is also modest and polite to Liao Fan!

"Learning from the scriptures? General Xue isn't joking with me, is he? You are such a big general, I am just a military commander, I don't have a good experience here! No matter how thick-skinned Liao Fan is, he can't say proudly that he has a good way, and he can scare the little devil out of Wuhan without spending a single soldier! It's all! Xue Boling is so modest as a first-class general, and Liao Fan is only a lieutenant general, so naturally he should be humble.

"I've already heard about General Chen, no matter how General Chen died, but his final result is still very decent! And I heard that when you were in the Chen Mansion, you discussed with General Chen the way to capture Wuhan! ”

Liao Fan did discuss with Chen Cheng the way to capture Wuhan, but that was all an overall arrangement, you must know that big wars are also composed of small battles, and if a small battle goes wrong, it may affect the entire battle situation! Liao Fan also has no certainty that he will win the battle and win!

"General Xue must have heard from Chairman Chiang, that is my idea of capturing Wuhan, even if I have great ability, I do not have the ability to decide a small battle! For the general, he can only coordinate the overall situation, and the small battle must be handed over to the lower-level commanders to do! ”

It's not that Liao Fan doesn't want to help, because he has already said everything he should say, and I believe Xue Boling already knows! No matter how capable Liao Fan is, it is impossible to be specific to the details, there are many uncertain factors in war!

When the Japanese army invaded China, they also thought that they would win, but it turned out that the Japanese army not only failed to win, but also could bury their entire country.

"In fact, what I am most worried about is the reinforcements of the Japanese army, I am not worried about the 50,000 troops in Wuhan and its surrounding areas, as long as the pass is captured, it will take a little time and energy at most, but once the Japanese army is reinforced, our encirclement is not as strong as imagined!"

Everyone is willing to fight a tailwind battle, and when they hear that there is a Japanese army behind their buttocks, they are likely to be attacked from both sides or even surrounded by the risk, and there will definitely be officers on the battlefield who will run away, after all, this kind of thing has happened before!

If the Japanese army reinforces Wuhan, I am afraid that it will not be easy to recover Wuhan.

"I know why Chairman Jiang arranged for you to command, just from the beginning of my attack, you, General Xue, are not here to learn from the scriptures, but to ask for my life!" Liao Fan somewhat understood Xue Boling's intention, he only came to sign a contract with Liao Fan, but came with a special mission.

"Let's not talk about anything else between our New 33rd Army and Wuhan, just separated by a Henan, we used to travel hundreds of miles, so it is definitely unrealistic for our New 33rd Army to support!"

It is not impossible to travel hundreds of miles to fight, but this consumes the physical strength of the soldiers, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers will inevitably be greatly reduced, and it will inevitably cause greater casualties, so the gains outweigh the losses!

"I don't want Commander Liao to send troops to support, but I need Commander Liao to arrange a few advantageous officers, of course I won't arrange them to go to the battlefield, but I am only responsible for judging the battle in a small area!"

"General Xue, it's not that I, Liao Fan, am stingy and refuse to lend you soldiers, the equipment of our new 33rd Army has formed a generation gap with the equipment of the National Army, and the gap in weapons has also led to differences in operational thinking, so when my officers are arranged in your troops, there will only be errors in judgment, and they will not bring you better benefits!"

Liao Fan really can't help much! The firepower of the new 33rd Army is already significantly superior to that of the Japanese army, and the national army is different, and their equipment even has the equipment of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China!

Xue Boling nodded, it is true that as Liao Fan said, different weapons will lead to different operational ideas, and if the officers of the New 33rd Army are arranged in their troops, even if they can judge the situation correctly, they may not be able to fight this war with their equipment.

Since ancient times, stupid people have stupid methods, although the equipment of the national army is a little poor, but they can still use flexible tactics to make up for the lack of equipment.

"Looks like we're the only ones to come!"

Xue Boling was under tremendous pressure, and although their strength was obviously superior to that of the Japanese army, he was still not absolutely sure about the battlefield war.

"When you determine the time, send me a telegram, our troops will also launch a counterattack against the Japanese army, so that the Japanese army will have to carry out large-scale operations because of our new 33rd Army, so that we can contain many Japanese troops!"

Although Liao Fan can't help much on the frontal battlefield, Liao Fan can completely make trouble with the little devil in the rear and make the little devil fearful!

"Okay, in that case, I'll take my leave!"

Xue Boling came fast and left fast! After all, the big war is imminent, there are many things waiting for him to give orders, and the assembly and supply of troops must also be done well, and it will not be too easy for one to be in charge.

Liao Fan rested in Taiyuan for two days and then returned to Taihang Mountain, Liao Jundong was also ready to explain the affairs of Shanxi, choose a suitable person, and he would also return to Taihang Mountain.

"It's still good for us to walk in the mountains, the air is fresh, the environment is beautiful, and it's even comfortable to lie on the stones!"

I haven't returned to Taihang Mountain for a long time, Liao Fan really misses Taihang Mountain, every grass and tree here seems to have feelings, and Liao Fan is already reluctant to give up here!

"Brother Fan, how good it is to live in Chongqing, I live in a high-rise house, and I have a car to pick you up when I go out, how comfortable it is!" Li Lingfei said.

"The golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as their own kennels! Besides, I'm not a kennel here! High-rise bungalows look okay, but it's not the same when you live in them! Liao Fan smiled and said, "By the way, call the important people in Taihang Mountain, I need to have a meeting for them!" ”

A lot of things have happened recently, and Liao Fan feels the need to communicate with everyone!
