Chapter 780: Discussion of the Headquarters (13th Request for a Monthly Pass)
Li Zongren said to Commander Jiang that Wei Lihuang's troops were likely to be surrounded and annihilated, and when Commander Jiang and the other generals heard it, they were very surprised, they all looked at Li Zongren, and Commander Jiang was even more staring at Li Zongren!
"What did you say?" Commander Jiang looked at Li Zongren and asked.
"I said, the telegram sent by Hu Bin this time may be true, Wei Lihuang's troops may really be surrounded and annihilated, and the devil is very likely to take such an action!" Li Zongren said.
"Impossible, he Okamura Ninji just suffered a big defeat in Mandalay, and he hasn't taken a breath yet, and now he is starting to arrange a second battle, how is it possible?" Commander Jiang immediately said.
"Yes! It seems impossible, but once the Japanese side really takes the kind of action Hu Bin said, then Wei Lihuang's troops are very likely to be completely annihilated! Li Zongren nodded, and then spoke.
"Report, the push show is coming!" At this time, a lieutenant general of the staff walked in and shouted a report inside.
"The result?" Commander Chiang immediately looked at the lieutenant general, and when the lieutenant general heard it, he hesitated for a moment, did not speak, but walked over and handed the report in his hand to Commander Chiang.
When Commander Jiang saw him like this, his heart sank, and he knew that he was in trouble, but he still had a trace of luck in his heart, hoping that the result would be good, so he opened the report and looked at it carefully, the report was very short, and he finished reading it at once, but Commander Jiang, who looked at the report, his hands trembled, and the result of the deduction was as Li Zongren said, and the whole army was wiped out.
"How is it possible, how can Okamura Ningji besiege Hui Shan's troops now, he just suffered a loss from Hu Bin in Mandalay, he didn't go to Hu Bin, why did he still think about fighting Hui Shan's troops first?" Commander Jiang said angrily.
As soon as the senior generals in front heard it, they knew that it was really as Li Zongren said, or rather, as Hu Bin said in the telegram before, the devil wanted to encircle and annihilate Wei Lihuang's troops, and now Hu Bin couldn't come back at all!
"Let's go, go to the staff department, I want to see how they deduce." Commander Chiang still didn't believe it in his heart, and immediately took the lead and walked to the side of the general staff.
The other generals also followed when they saw it, but Bai Chongxi at this time looked at Li Zongren.
Li Zongren sighed, then nodded, Bai Chongxi also sighed when he saw him like this, if it is really as Hu Bin said, then not only Wei Lihuang's troops are in danger, but also Guangxi and Yunnan will be in danger.
This is Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi's territory, if it is occupied by the devils, they will lose their power. Now they have nothing to do with the expeditionary force, or rather, they are powerless.
Soon, Commander Chiang took those senior generals to the deduction hall of the General Staff, and under the reminder of the adjutant, the General Staff once again made a deduction for Commander Chiang.
"Wait, where did the 400,000 troops from the south come from?" As soon as Commander Jiang took a look, he found that there were more than 400,000 devils in the south of Wei Lihuang, which surprised Commander Jiang.
"Report, it's the devil's troops in Thailand and the troops of other countries in Southeast Asia, and now we are only using 400,000 troops of the devils, and if the battle is needed, the devils can use between 600,000 and 1 million troops in this direction." The major general who carried out the deduction immediately spoke.
"Niang Xipi, so much?" When Commander Jiang heard this, he said in surprise, he really hadn't noticed that the devils had retained so many troops in Thailand and other countries in Southeast Asia.
"Where did the 300,000 troops from the west come from? Myanmar? Commander Jiang asked, pointing to the position of the western defense line of Wei Lihuang's troops.
"Yes, the troops of Burma, if they can, the devils can increase their troops in this direction by 100,000!" The major general nodded.
"The 100,000 troops in the north, judging from the top of the line, are they reinforced from Rangoon?" Commander Chiang then asked.
"Yes, the troops from the north are coming from Yangon, if the devils want to continue to reinforce in this direction, and Hu Bin's troops don't take action, they can still reinforce more than 200,000!" The major general pointed in the direction of Yangon and said to Commander Chiang.
"He Hu Bin must move, he must move!" Commander Jiang's eyes widened and he said.
"Yes!" The Major General nodded.
"Keep deducing!" The commander said to the major general.
"Yes!" The major general nodded and said, and then gave Commander Jiang a deduction, and in less than half an hour, the deduction was over.
Judging from the results of the exercise, Wei Lihuang's troops could only hold out for 11 days at most, and after 11 days, the entire army was completely dispersed and surrounded and annihilated by the devil's troops, and it was expected that after 15 days, the troops would be completely annihilated.
From the deduction, Commander Jiang could see that Wei Lihuang's troops had run out of ammunition and food by the time they held out until the 8th day, and the devil's air force had been bombing, and the entire army was in a decisive situation!
"Report, Commander Wei's telegram!" At this time, Commander Chiang's adjutant came over and reported to him.
"Bring it!" Commander Jiang came to his senses and said to the adjutant.
The adjutant sent the telegram to Commander Jiang's hand, Commander Jiang unfolded the telegram and looked at it carefully, the more he looked at it, the more worried he became, especially in the end, Wei Lihuang had already written at the end of the telegram, if it is not successful, it will become benevolent! This made Commander Jiang feel very uncomfortable.
Wei Lihuang fought very well in Southeast Asia, when he was guarding Henan before, he also fought very well, and regained Wuhan with Hu Bin, which won glory for Commander Jiang's face, but now Wei Lihuang still has 300,000 elite soldiers in his hands, and he actually sent him a decisive telegram, how can this not make Commander Jiang worry.
"Niang Xipi, why is this all of a sudden? Why didn't they find out before, if they could have found it in advance, Wei Lihuang's troops could retreat, now that the devil's air force controls air supremacy, Wei Lihuang's troops can't retreat even if they want to! What the hell is going on? Commander Chiang put away the telegram and shouted to the generals.
None of those generals dared to speak, and they were now wondering why the situation had deteriorated so quickly that they couldn't react at all.
"Tell me, what's going on, why didn't you think before, Hui Shan's troops might be surrounded by devils, and they can't retreat if they want to, and Hu Bin's troops can't be reinforced if they want to, what's going on, tell me clearly!" Commander Chiang looked at the generals and shouted.
He knew that once Wei Lihuang's troops failed, it would bring serious consequences to China, but no one had discovered such an important situation before.
"Commander, this matter is actually an opportunity for the devil, before Hu Bin attacked Mandalay, the devil did not find such an opportunity, or rather, he couldn't find such an opportunity at all!" Li Zongren said.
"Yes, I think so too, this is the opportunity for the devil to fight, if it wasn't for Hu Bin to win Mandalay so quickly, the devil would not have found such an opportunity.
Of course, Hu Bin can't be blamed for this matter, there are too many comprehensive factors, including the loss of Commander Wei's air force, and the speed of his troops' attack is very fast, and the lone army is deep, forming an opportunity for the devil to encircle, Hu Bin's side now wants to reinforce the past, but he can't reinforce it.
The vanguard of the devil has already controlled the passage of Hu Bin's main reinforcements, as long as the devil blocks Hu Bin for more than 10 days, Commander Wei's troops will not be able to hold on! He Yingqin on the side said.
"Niang Xipi. So, is it still a mistake for Hu Bin to defeat Mandalay? Commander Jiang looked at them and said.
"No, if it weren't for Hu Bin to capture Mandalay, Hu Bin's troops would be in danger, and at that time, not only Commander Wei's troops would be completely annihilated, but even Hu Bin's troops would also be completely annihilated.
Of course, if Commander Wei's troops are wiped out now, Hu Bin's troops won't last long! Li Zongren immediately shook his head and said, and the other generals heard it and nodded.
"Don't you have a better way, how to keep Hui Shan's troops, Zongren, can you in Guangxi and Yunnan continue to reinforce Hui Shan's troops?" Commander Jiang looked at Li Zongren and asked.
"We can reinforce, but it's too late, or rather, if we reinforce the past, we will also be blocked by the devils, as you saw just now, the devil's troops will definitely use the shortest time to cut off Wei Lihuang's logistics supply line and retreat route.
We conservatively estimate that there will be 100,000 troops, and if I want to send troops over, even if I send 300,000 troops, I can't only open the passage in 10 days! Li Zongren shook his head and said.
"You mean there's nothing you can do about it?" Commander Jiang looked at the generals and asked.
Those generals all bowed their heads, in fact, Commander Jiang also knew that if there was a way, Wei Lihuang would definitely write it in the telegram, and it was precisely because there was no way that Wei Lihuang wrote such a thing as Chengren if he didn't succeed in the end.
"There's a way!" At this time, a person standing in the corner suddenly spoke, and all the people turned back to find the person who spoke, and when they saw it, it was Sun Liren.
"What's the solution, let's hear it!" Commander Jiang stared at him and asked.
"As long as Hu Bin can kill Naypyidol within 3 days, and then use 5 days to kill the south and kill the troops from Thailand and Myanmar who have reinforced, there will be a chance!" Sun Liren said immediately.
"Impossible, Hu Bin can't do it at all!" When Li Zongren heard this, he immediately shook his head and said, and the others also shook their heads, what Sun Liren said Hu Bin couldn't do at all.
"Why can't you do it?" Commander Jiang looked at Li Zongren and asked.
He hoped that Hu Bin's troops would be able to rescue Wei Lihuang's troops, but now that Sun Liren had just said a way, they said that they couldn't do it, and Commander Jiang wanted to hear their explanation. (To be continued.) )
