The final showdown has arrived. The Japanese army, with the Wunai United Force as the center, gathered tens of thousands of troops from various divisions and regiments, and marched towards Yuwang Mountain.

Zhang Chong came to the Yuwangshan position, and he gathered all the officers above the platoon of the 184th Division to do the final pre-war mobilization.

And behind the officer stood all the soldiers of the 184th Division. Although they could not hear it, they could see that their division commander was right next to them.

Zhang Chong stood at the top and said loudly: "Our Yi ancestor has a rule for the 37 barbarian tribes to govern the army, every time they fight, they must check their injuries, and those who are injured in front of the sword are allowed to rest; If you hurt the sword in the back, slash your back with a knife and use the easiest way to distinguish between charging and escaping, heroes and bears! Now, we still respect the rule of our ancestors, and we must check our injuries every time we fight, and whoever disgraces our ancestors will not be forgiven by military law! Therefore, the military soul of our 184th Division is to never expose our backs to the enemy's sharp sword, and to put our chest against the enemy's bloody bayonet! The 184th Division will build China's Predator Army!" (PS: This inspiring remark was indeed said by Zhang Chong.) ）

Zhang Chong's words come from the bottom of his heart and from his soul, and only such words can be infectious, inspiring and morale-boosting.

"Defend the country and kill! Kill! Kill! ”

The next one shouted, ten people, a hundred, a thousand......

"Defend the country and kill! Kill! Kill! ”

“……”

The officers and soldiers of the whole division shouted together, united as one, and hated the same enemy! Yuwang Mountain seems to be shaking, resonating with these iron-blooded men in a foreign land!

After the shouting stopped, Zhang Chong shouted in the loudest voice: "Yunnan's soldiers, the final decisive moment has arrived!" Under your feet is the land of the Chinese, and if the invaders dare to take a step forward, I will make them pay the price of blood! Chen Tang of the Western Han Dynasty has such a saying: Those who commit strong men will be punished even if they are far away. Today I want to say: Those who commit crimes against China will die! ”

…………

After the mobilization meeting, the officers and men of the division returned to their positions and waited for the battle. They will defend the dignity of the nation with the weapons in their hands!

Zhang Chong returned to his headquarters, where a person was waiting for him in the conference room. That person was down to business, Xu Changqing.

Xu Changqing sat on the stool and said with a smile: "Sometimes, I really feel sorry for you."

Zhang Chong replied: "Sometimes, I really hate you."

"Because I'm a military commander? We're in a boat now. ”

Zhang Chong said: "I hate your smile, always so fake."

Xu Changqing smiled again and said, "If people see the real me, can I still live until now?" Sometimes, I really envy Shao Fei, who can die so heroically. ”

At the mention of Shao Fei, Zhang Chong's face changed and asked, "How is the plan going?"

Xu Changqing replied: "It's not started yet, people value love and righteousness, and they can't let you go." Dude, you still care about yourself, after putting so many communists in the 184th Division, do you want to dye the 184th Division red? Zhang Zhizhong, no, it should be called Chen Yonghe now. Are you blind to our military commanders? ”

Zhang Chong did not regret appointing Chen Yonghe as director of the Political Department. There are many factors that make an army strong, but discipline is fundamental.

After Chen Yonghe's arrival, the 184th Division applied the discipline of the Eighth Route Army and won the support of the masses.

Now the 184th Division originally had 8,000 officers and men, but the mass ranks had more than 1,000. They helped with cooking, carrying the wounded, building fortifications, and burying the bodies...... This is also a strong fighting force.

Xu Changqing said again: "You are a rare general. In the Yunnan army, in fact, you are the most important chairman of the committee, but you are contrary to the party-state. ”

As he spoke, Xu Changqing breathed a sigh of relief. Then he said, "I'll give you a thorough explanation." After Xuzhou, we will defend Wuhan, which will be the last battle of your military career. ”

"Hehe" Zhang Chong smiled disapprovingly and said, "I thought Xuzhou would be the end, but I didn't expect it to be Wuhan." Our chairman is really interesting, and you have to thank him for me. ”

Saying that, Zhang Chong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It doesn't matter, it's a big deal to go back to Yunnan to repair water conservancy and engage in education."

(I can't fail to mention that Zhang Chong is a genius.) The water conservancy projects he built in the thirties are still in use today. ）

Xu Changqing put down a note and stood up, and said, "The general should do it himself."

After speaking, Xu Changqing left the conference room.

Zhang Chong opened the note and wrote: Night attack on Sakagaki.

The Japanese troops continued to assemble near Yuwang Mountain, and when all the troops were in place, they immediately launched an attack.

Shio Takeuchi summoned Nakajima Kawadai and Yagyu Hidehiko to command the camp and discuss the battle plan for attacking Yuwang Mountain.

Takeuchi Shixiong looked at the sand table of Yuwang Mountain and asked, "If you two have any high opinions, you might as well say it directly."

Nakajima was the first to express his opinion, and he wanted to use this battle to wash away the shame of his last defeat.

Nakajima said: "Fighting a war is about knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent. First of all, we need to understand the commander of the opposing side. Although Zhang Chong did not have Shao Fei's assistance, he was the god of war in Yunnan. He invented bayonet flying thunder warfare, which was specially used to deal with white-knuckle warfare. Fighting for stabs is the strength of our soldiers, but when we encounter Zhang Chong, the strength becomes a weakness, and our soldiers suffer heavy casualties. ”

Shio Takeuchi asked, "What is bayonet flying thunder warfare?"

Nakajima explained: "When fighting the stabs, the soldiers of the Dian army were very particular about formation. Ten soldiers in the front were assassinated, protecting the two soldiers in the back. The two people in the back are responsible for throwing grenades, wherever there are many enemies. Although there were casualties on both sides, it was clear that our side suffered more casualties. ”

Shio Takeuchi imagined that kind of battle in his mind. Indeed, the stabbing technique of his own side cannot play a role, but it is a shortcoming.

Takeuchi asked, "Can we use Nakajima-kun's fatigue tactics last time?"

Nakajima replied: "If the soldiers are not reused, the effect is not great. Now the Dian army is fully defending Yuwang Mountain, and no tactics can work. What we can do now is to make use of our strengths and avoid our weaknesses, so that the Dian army will not be able to hold on for three days. ”

"Oh~" Takeuchi became interested and said, "Nakajima-kun, please continue."

Nakajima continued: "Our advantage lies in the strength and artillery fire, and the advantage of the Dian army lies in advanced weapons. Their heavy artillery can fight twenty miles, and the range of heavy machine guns is two thousand meters, so the open land on both flanks of Yuwang Mountain must be abandoned. As long as our troops do the following four things, victory will be ours. ”

Takeuchi asked again, "Which four points?"

Nakajima replied: "One, it is necessary to fight at night, and their advanced weapons will not be effective; Second, we should continue to fight and give full play to the superiority of our troops; Third, the interval between the troops at each stage should be shortened. In the last battle, we clearly occupied the high ground. But the middle road was cut off by Shao Fei, and the troops occupying the commanding heights were insufficient and were snatched back by the enemy; Fourth, protect the rear logistics materials, because the Dian army has a terrible special combat team. ”

Nakajima Kawadai said a little dry mouth, took a sip of water, and finally said: "Our army has the advantage. As long as you follow the step-by-step plan, fight a war of attrition in a decent manner, weaken the enemy's combat power, and then take Yuwang Mountain in one go. ”

Nakajima Kawadai's move is to win steadily, and the winning rate is extremely high.

In fact, Shio Takeuchi understands that Nakajima doesn't have a higher plan, but he just doesn't say it. Because the higher the strategy, the greater the accompanying risks. Nakajima is thinking about himself, because the nobility is not allowed to fail.

Shio Takeuchi felt grateful to Nakajima Kawadai for giving him advice so sparingly.

Later, Shio Takeuchi asked Hidehiko Yanagiyu, "Yanagi-kun, what do you think?"

Hidehiko Yagyu replied: "I have no opinion, I admire Nakajima-kun's good intentions. I only hope that Nakajima-kun doesn't think too much about it and uses your best wisdom. Worrying about left and right is also a taboo for soldiers. ”

Yagyu seemed to see through Nakajima's thoughts. First, he is a defeated general, and it is inevitable to suffer from gains and losses. Second, he faced a nobleman with a prominent background, Alexander.

"Yanagi-kun is right. Nakajima-kun, please don't worry. ”

Takeuchi said, patting Nakajima Kawa steps as a sign of encouragement.

Nakajima lowered his head vigorously and said, "My subordinates understand!"

At this time, Yanagi Hidehiko suddenly said: "If I were Shao Fei, I would definitely take a special combat team to attack the division headquarters while the rear was empty."

Wu Nei immediately reminded: "Liu Shengjun, Shao Fei is dead."

Liu Sheng didn't seem to accept the fact of Shao Fei's death, and bowed his head and said, "I'm sorry." But Zhang Chong's resourcefulness is not under Shao Fei, please pay attention to the rear of His Excellency General. ”

"I see."

Shio Takeuchi just perfunctory Yanagi because he mentioned Shao Fei. Dead people don't make plans.
