The situation of the Japanese army is not much better, the commander-in-chief of the little devils has already run away, and the situation of the Japanese army can be much better!

It's just the jump before the dog jumps off the wall, but Hu Guoshan doesn't know that the little devil is jumping off the wall in a hurry! Even he could not judge the true intentions of the Japanese army.

At present, Hu Guoshan can only fight this battle with the idea that the Japanese army wants to keep Tonghua City, after all, the little devils have not had any flaws in other directions so far.

Hu Guoshan was anxious to find out the real purpose and final strength of the Japanese army, if he did not achieve these two goals, even if he asked Liao Fan for support, it would be useless.

All he could do now was to move the only troops in his hands that could fight to the front, at least the current situation was not out of his control, and they still had the initiative.

After Ma Wanzhong received the call, he knew in his heart that the battle was not easy to fight, otherwise Hu Guoshan would definitely give him more time to train the troops.

"Lao Bai, your army will report to Honggang, and when the time comes, you will obey Commander-in-Chief Hu's direct dispatch! Before going to the battlefield, the training of the troops cannot be missing a day! ”

Since it was Hu Guoshan's order, he could only leave one army for Hu Guoshan as a reserve, and Bai Chongxi had good abilities in all aspects, so Ma Wanzhong could rest assured that he would hand over the matter to him.

"Commander, can you tell me what Commander-in-Chief Hu's purpose is for leaving me?"

To put it bluntly, Bai Chongxi didn't want to leave his group army, Ma Wanzhong's group army was like Bai Chongxi's home, he started here, led troops here, and mixed up with his brothers here.

"I want to know what purpose! Don't look at many battles on our front line, even if the victory belongs to us, but the war must be cruel, and when it comes to the battlefield, be flexible! ”

Judging from the information they got, it is obvious that their attack on Tonghua did not go smoothly this time, and if the war does not go well, it means that more people will be sacrificed, and then in exchange for the smooth progress of the war.

"Uh-huh!"

Bai Chongxi nodded, he was also a veteran who had been famous on the battlefield for a long time, and naturally knew that this war had great glory, and it also meant that there were more lives to exchange for victory in the war.

Glory is not for nothing!

Either you die or I live, this is the battlefield! I think that most of the country's land was lost, and tens of thousands of people were bullied! All of this is now a great situation that has been bought with blood.

No one likes to see their comrades-in-arms fall one by one and never get up again! However, in this war, there are no more innocent people in this country, and if you want to have a good life, someone must fight hard!

So after receiving the order, Ma Wanzhong is duty-bound, this is a responsibility! Similarly, Bai Chongxi is also responsible for being on call in Honggang!

Every day, countless wounded are transported from the front to the rear, and countless names that will not be kept are crossed out from one pamphlet after another.

"Old horse, this time we can fight side by side again!"

Ma Wanzhong took the troops to the assembly area, and then reported to Hu Guoshan's headquarters, where he would receive new orders.

"Yes, it's been a few years since Taihang Mountain was separated, I used to listen to Brother Fan, but now I listen to you!"

For the past in Taihang Mountain, now it is just a memory left in their minds, Hu Guoshan is now the commander-in-chief of the entire Northeast Military Region, what he said is an order, no matter how good your relationship is in the army, even if it is a father and son, you must obey the orders of your superiors, this is the rule.

"Come, let's discuss it first, now Tonghua can't be attacked for a long time, it is the biggest problem we are currently encountering, Tonghua can't be attacked will face two problems, after the winter, Du Yuming's material supply, the second is that the Japanese army can not be divided from north to south, and our strategic goal cannot be achieved!"

Hu Guoshan didn't hide it from Ma Wanzhong at all, and even he avoided that he had indeed miscalculated in planning this battle, otherwise they wouldn't have been dragged by a small Tonghua for so long, putting the entire army in an embarrassing situation.

"Lao Hu, don't make fun of me, you are the commander-in-chief of this battle, and I am here with the troops to listen to your orders!"

To put it mildly, although Ma Wanzhong is capable, his position is there, and he does what kind of things in what position.

"I don't believe that your old horse has been idle for half a month, and you haven't taken a good look at the situation in the entire Northeast? Don't forget, you are the first to enter the Northeast, if you think about the situation in the Northeast, I am afraid that in the entire army, it is estimated that your old horse is the first person! ”

When Ma Wanzhong asked to return to the Northeast, his idea was very simple, with his own strength, to restore peace to the entire Northeast!

Although this day came very early, even when Ma Wanzhong's troops were not yet fully manned, Liao Fan issued an order to recover the northeast. And how could Ma Wanzhong, who is in the Northeast and cares about the Northeast, not consider the problems of the Northeast.

"Lao Hu, in the past two years, the tone of your voice has not changed, and you are still domineering!"

"Don't be nostalgic yet, I'll transfer you and your troops to solve the problem!"

"To be honest with you, the information in my hands is not as comprehensive as the information in your hands now, but Tonghua is indeed a problem at present, and you know better than me the problems faced by Tonghua, as for how many new forces the Japanese army still has, neither of us knows it! But have the Japanese troops in the south been much more honest these days? ”

"The biggest pressure on our troops in Tonghua still comes from the Japanese army in the north, mainly the Japanese army in the north is continuous, destroying one of their divisions and then another division, it seems that the Japanese army does not care about the cost of casualties!"

"What about the positive situation?"

"Although the frontal Japanese army has drawn a lot of troops, but they resist a little bit with their stronghold fortresses, our troops are making some progress, but as the Japanese defense line is getting shorter and shorter, and our battle line is getting longer and longer, so ......"

Zhao Caizhu added for Hu Guoshan that as more and more land was recovered, they had to reserve troops to stay in the place, and the smaller the Japanese theater, the more troops the Japanese army could reserve to support other places, which made Hu Guoshan more and more headaches.

"You mean that the troops set aside by the Japanese army are all invested in the Tonghua battlefield? It's unlikely, as far as I know, the Japanese army has invested a lot of troops in Tonghua, more than 200,000, plus we surrounded and eliminated the Japanese army in Tonghua, even if the Japanese army has many more troops than us, but this kind of battle will affect their entire frontal defense line! ”

"You mean the Japanese still want to retreat?"

Hu Guoshan guessed that the Japanese army was only fighting a war of attrition with them on the front, and for them the real decisive battle had already begun, while for the Japanese army, the real decisive battle might not have begun yet.

Thinking of this place, a cold sweat broke out on Hu Guoshan's back, if it was really as he expected now, it meant that their true strength had been exposed, and the true strength of the Japanese army was not yet known!

It's like you're naked and exposed to your enemies, who are heavily armed and even masked!

"Lao Hu, don't scare me, I heard your words, it made my head buzz!"

was shocked by Hu Guoshan's words, Ma Wanzhong and Zhao Caizhu were also taken aback! If, according to Hu Guoshan, it is not the Japanese army that is in danger, but all their troops in the northeast.

"I just thought of it!" Hu Guoshan was also taken aback by his own thoughts.

"We know the total strength of the Japanese army, and we also understand their combat effectiveness, the Japanese army cannot have too much back, so although the idea you just made is possible, the probability is too slim and almost impossible to realize!"

According to their understanding of the changes in the strength of the Japanese army and the changes in combat effectiveness in recent years, it is easy to find that Hu Guoshan's idea is that he is scaring himself.

Even if the Japanese army was arrogant and retreated, it still took this battle lightly!

"What the hell do you mean, old horse?"

"Our key is to hold off the Japanese from the north, their main reinforcements are from the north, and the Japanese from the south are already taking care of themselves under the pressure of our frontal forces!"

"Of course, I know this, but you must know that we don't have so many troops to stop the Japanese army from the north!"

Hu Guoshan naturally knew what the problem was, but ...... Strength is a big problem, the strength of an army is definitely not enough, who knows if they block a division of the Japanese army, whether another division will come after it, this is a problem for Hu Guoshan to consider.

If the troops sent are too small, it is likely that after being wheeled by the Japanese army, the number of troops will gradually decrease, and eventually they may be eaten by the Japanese army.

"What I brought with me are two full armies plus an independent division!"

Ma Wanzhong knew that this task was important, so he was neat and expressed his willingness to take on this important task.

"Old Ma, I didn't do this when I transferred you and your troops over! And with your strength being able to hold out for a few days, we can't guarantee that we will be able to take the entire Tonghua in the exact time! ”

Tonghua City is a big variable, and no one dares to guarantee that it will be taken in a short period of time, if Ma Wanzhong's troops are exhausted in the process of blocking the Japanese army......

"Do you have a better choice?"

"Your troops are all replenished with new recruits, and although they have all undergone long-term training, many soldiers have never been on the battlefield after all! Although it is suitable for blocking, it is definitely not suitable for this kind of blocking! ”

Hu Guoshan didn't want to push his friends to a dead end, if this road is fought well, he may lose more than half, and if he doesn't fight well, he may be wiped out.

"I'm just asking you if there's a better option?"

Ma Wanzhong has fought for so many years, and naturally knows the cruelty of war, some things are not something that you don't have to face if you don't want to, someone must do the most difficult and obscure thing.

Hu Guoshan raised his head and looked at the roof, on the one hand, there was a battle situation that had to be broken, and on the other hand, he was a brother like a relative, and the right to choose was in his hands...... If he had decided a minute late, more fighters would have died on the battlefield.
