5.5 Fiery Jinling

Only Huang Haoran's voice continued in the conference room, and the others didn't even dare to come out, for fear of interrupting the intoxicated mood of the supreme authorities. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"In order to defend Shanghai, defend the capital, and defend the Yangtze River, the most rigid authorities decided to take the initiative and plan to remove the Japanese warships and the Japanese Navy Special Marines in Shanghai from the Yangtze River, open up the Songhu battlefield, and attack the Japanese marines who invaded Shanghai. And it's absolutely true!

The Songhu Battlefield forced the Japanese to deploy additional land forces in strategic directions that they were reluctant to use. With the development of the war, its army strength continued to increase, and the main battlefield shifted from North China to East China. This not only dispersed the Japanese army's forces and prevented them from concentrating on the North China battlefield, which had open terrain and was conducive to the combat of mechanized troops, but also smashed the Japanese army's strategic attempt to quickly resolve the war, invade and occupy North China by local war, and force the Chinese government to submit.

In this sense, although Japan is on the offensive side, it is already in a passive position in terms of strategy.

All of this was brought to us by the Battle of Songhu!

I dare to assert that in time our army was defeated in the final battle, but strategically the Japanese army was the real loser! ”

At such an emotional time, Jiang Baili slapped his face just right.

"Smack. Syllable.. Syllable..!! ”

The room erupted in applause, and even the highest authorities joined in.

When the sycophants saw that the highest authorities were so engaged, they immediately made a mountain of applause, and they wanted to slap their palms to pieces.

"Youchen! Don't just talk about our achievements, talk about our shortcomings! Tell me about your killing experience and let them all learn from it! ”

Huang Haoran smiled and said yes to the supreme authorities, but he did not intend to tell the real root cause of the Songhu War of Resistance at the meeting, because a large part of the reasons for the defeat in the Battle of Songhu were mistakes in operational guidance and the hope of international intervention and missed the plane, and the biggest root cause of these two problems lies with the supreme authorities themselves.

Huang Haoran was asked to point out to his face at the meeting that the highest authorities were the culprits of the defeat in the Battle of Songhu, unless his head was in the water.

Fortunately, Jiang Baili gave Huang Haoran a hint, and he decided to put forward some suggestions in a different way.

Huang Haoran never mentioned the mistakes in operational guidance, but talked a lot about the shortcomings of tactics, such as "focusing on the front line and dispersing the troops" and "focusing on the front and ignoring the flanks".

"Our army exposed two major problems in the Battle of Songhu.

(1) Concentration on the front line leads to the dispersion of troops

If we place too much emphasis on sticking to a front-line position with a wide front, we will not be able to concentrate superior forces in terms of space and time. In the absence of strong reserves, in order to maintain the positions of the first line, the rear forces were gradually replenished to the first line, and as soon as the enemy broke through the defensive line, the whole line was shaken. This is also one of the important factors in the failure of the Battle of Songhu. General Sun Yuanliang once criticized this. He said: "Although the strength of our army is three times that of the Japanese army, it has never been able to attack the Japanese army or form an encirclement by fighting more or less, but using the 'wheel warfare method' as mentioned in the novel; The immortals individually suffered the loss of the mixed yuan golden bucket in the Yellow River array. First or later, the three flowers on the top were cut off......

The method we practiced on the battlefield in Shanghai was that the troops in a certain position on the front line were exhausted and could no longer support them, and then they would be replaced by new units that had been transferred to the battlefield for a short time. Our front line stretched from Zhabei to Jiangwan to Liuhe, dozens of miles, and twenty or thirty divisions were deployed to defend the position. The second division was finished, and the third division was added.

In this way, although we can win the applause of the people and gain the prestige of heroes in terms of morale, in terms of operational interests, especially under the inferior conditions of our country's military equipment, this will not work.

In all operations, the arrangement of positions must be focused. If there is no focus, although you defend everywhere, you feel weak everywhere. As a result, one was broken by the enemy, and the whole line collapsed. This is one of the reasons for the failure. ”

After Huang Haoran finished saying this first point, many of the officers who participated in the command of the Battle of Songhu immediately nodded in agreement, and Huang Haoran divided half of the credit for this suggestion on Sun Yuanliang's head, Sun Yuanliang is also a descendant officer in the Central Army, and his seniority is old, so the officers present naturally do not have too many opinions about him.

As for whether this opinion was put forward by Sun Yuanliang, no one paid attention to it......

Jiang Baili's opinions are really good words, and Huang Haoran gave himself a helper to block the enemy.

"That's right! Youchen, you go on......"

The highest authorities were also very satisfied with Huang Haoran's performance, and he already felt that he was provoked by Huang Haoran like this, and the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became lively, and there was no longer the previous lifelessness.

Huang Haoran nodded to everyone present again, his humble attitude has won the favor of the majority, and the tenth gaze has become a very few.

(2) Focus on the front and ignore the flanks

The Japanese army adopted a roundabout tactic in Songhu many times, and even captured Yuepu in Chuanshakou and Baoshan, and even captured Yuepu, and the Japanese can be said to have repeatedly used this tactic, and officially our department noticed this characteristic of the Japanese army, and only then did we have the results of annihilating the Japanese army's roundabout troops. It was also by adopting the same tactics as the Japanese army that our army successfully attacked the brigade headquarters of the 22nd Brigade.

Vice Commander Chen's 18th Army made a decisive attack when the Japanese army attacked Baoshan in a roundabout way, blocking the Japanese army, and our unit took the opportunity to adopt the same tactics as the Japanese army, and only then did it successfully attack the brigade headquarters of the Japanese 22nd Brigade in a roundabout way.

It can be seen that flank attacks are the norm in Japanese attacks, and we must pay more attention to them! ”

Chief Li smiled, he felt that Huang Haoran was really a manufacturable material, such a big predicament today, he was actually demolished by his young man, not only did he retreat, but also sold a few favors to the bigwigs of the Central Army by the way, this trip to the meeting, Huang Haoran made a lot of money!

"You can be a man!" Wang Zhaoming whispered his evaluation of Huang Haoran to Minister He, and Minister He nodded secretly in his heart.

Why don't you have such talents under your own command?

Huang Haoran mentioned that there is a purpose in paying attention to the problem of flanks.

After the Battle of Songhu began, in order to prevent the Japanese army from making a detour from the sea and landing in Hangzhou Bay to encircle it, the Nationalist Government High Command promulgated on 20 August stipulated in the "Guiding Plan for the War of the Nationalist Army" that "in the areas along the coast of Zhejiang where the enemy can land, quickly form a stronghold-type position to prevent the enemy from landing or take the opportunity to annihilate it." A garrison area on the north shore of Hangzhou Bay was established, with Zhang Fakui as the commander-in-chief of the garrison area, and four divisions and one brigade were deployed.

However, as the frontal front of the Songhu battlefield tightened, the supreme authorities would disregard the security of the flanks and transfer several divisions stationed in the front to strengthen the defensive line, and only use a small number of troops and local teams of the 63rd Division to defend a coastline of several tens of kilometers. Such a weak force is not enough to even be on guard, let alone prevent the enemy from landing.

As a result, the 10th Army in history easily landed near Jinshanwei as if it were in a no-man's land, and quickly occupied Jinshan, Songjiang and other key points, so that the Chinese army in front of the Songhu battlefield was in danger of being attacked by the enemy on its back and had to retreat on all fronts.

Now that Huang Haoran is here to give the highest authorities a preventive shot, perhaps the 10th Army will fight to the death with Zhang Fakui's troops, and it will definitely take a lot of time and lose a lot of manpower and material resources if the Japanese army can successfully land in the end.

The Chinese army on the front of the Songhu battlefield could also be in the danger of being attacked by the enemy on their backs and hold out longer.

After saying the above two points, Huang Haoran felt that he should accept it when he saw it, and if he continued to say it, maybe he would accidentally say the wrong thing, so he began to summarize his speech:

"China's War of Resistance is destined to be a difficult and protracted war, the situation of the enemy's strength and weakness will not change in a period of time, but our country has enough depth of national defense, as long as we adhere to the belief of the War of Resistance unwaveringly, exchange space for time, and wait for changes in the international environment, then, the final victory must belong to us!"

As soon as this last high-pitched song was finished, the conference room really turned into a sea of joy, and even some of the "capitulation factions" began to waver a little, and the highest authority narrowed his eyes in satisfaction, and he finally set the tone again, and then announced the dismissal of the party.

The old man was happy, and the adults were naturally happy, so they went downstairs to the restaurant in twos and threes, and Huang Haoran and Jiang Baili hung behind the team, talking while walking:

"Brother Youchen, your performance today is really impeccable, the highest authorities have shouted good to you, and your crisis will naturally be solved."

Huang Haoran replied to Jiang Baili with a smile:

"As the saying goes, crisis crisis, there is a crisis, there is an opportunity, there is a lot of wisdom in Brother Baili, I am very relieved!"

**********************************************

That night, Huang Haoran did not stay in the presidential palace again, the highest authorities were in a good mood, and sent someone to send Huang Haoran to live in the Yihe Road Mansion District, where all foreign consular staff lived, and the independent bungalows and the French plane trees on the road contrasted with each other, and the scenery was speechless.

At the dinner in the evening building, Commander Huang naturally would not pay the bill, Jiang Baili took his wife to eat Huang Haoran a good meal, Jiang Baili's wife is a Japanese, she was a nurse before marrying Jiang Baili, and Jiang Baili's body has always been taken care of by his wife.

Huang Haoran knew that Jiang Baili died young in history, so he exchanged a lot of health care with his wife during dinner, hoping to make this modern Chinese military talent live for a longer period of time.

There are many people in black clothes on the road near Yihe Road, Huang Haoran knows that these people are sent by the government to protect these foreign devils living on Yihe Road, and now Huang Haoran is also stained.

Judging from the direction from which the sound of the explosion came, the civilian area of Shimonoseki had been attacked by air, the terrible air defense sirens sounded for almost an hour before they were lifted, and the fire continued to burn for several hours

The people in Nanjing City thought that the most difficult day should be now, right?

Where would they know that now is only the beginning of darkness......

The plan submitted by Huang Haoran for the deployment of heavy troops on the national defense line has been handed over to the Ministry of National Defense, and the matter of deciding is not something that Huang Haoran can do.

Jiang Baili knew that Huang Haoran was worried about the troops, so he sent Huang Haoran a radio station and several confidential personnel, and Huang Haoran finally got in touch with his beloved 99th Army.

The reinforcement of national defense fortifications and the training of new recruits Fan Jie is doing it carefully, the section of the national defense line operated by the 99th Army has been built into a steel defense line, the 60,000 army is arranged in echelons, and the flanks and rear roads are firmly controlled in his own hands.

Huang Haoran doesn't believe in his allies, and his fate is still in his own hands!

**************************************************

In the inn by the Qinhuai River, Dai Mengru, the female writer of "Declaration", and his assistant Fang Xiaoqian were sighing, Huang Haoran suddenly disappeared from Changshu City, which caught them off guard, not to mention the interview after coming out of the newspaper for so long, even if he didn't even get a gossip news, the editor-in-chief was already angry, he gave the two of them a deadline, and "Declaration" does not have to be an interview with Huang Haoran, as long as it is an article that can be on the front page, the editor-in-chief will receive it.

After Dai Mengru and Fang Xiaoqian got the event that Nanjing Xinjiekou would hold a large donation for millions of people, they rushed to Nanjing from Changshu overnight.

There is only an interview with this touching news to fill the skylight of the newspaper, and the deadline for Dai Mengru and Fang Xiaoqian is the night of the end of the big donation.

Dai Mengru is not worried about her writing, she is more worried about whether the telegraph company will take over her still profitable business, you must know that it is wartime, and the control of communications is very strict, even if Dai Mengru has the newspaper's certification materials and press card in her hand, but now they are in Nanjing, and it is not certain whether people will buy their own accounts.

Looking at Dai Mengru's sad appearance, Fang Xiaoqian muttered on the side: "It's all Huang Haoran's fault, if it weren't for the fact that I delayed too much time to interview him, how could the editor-in-chief be so aggressive, we don't take his salary now, the newspaper is still doing this to us, this is called Yide complaining!" ”

"Stop talking nonsense! The colleagues in the newspaper do not receive salaries, only living expenses, and everyone is responsible for going to the national disaster together! ”

"Knowing that you are a pioneer in supporting the resistance against Japan, don't I just complain? Look at you in a hurry, you are still annoyed that I scolded your General Huang, right? ”

"Dead girl.......

***************************************************

At ten o'clock in the morning of October 3, in Xinjiekou Square, under the bronze statue of Sun Wen, a vigorous donation to anti-Japanese activities is in full swing.

Dai Mengru and Fang Xiaoqian were crowded in the surging crowd, they wanted to find some touching first-hand materials.

The wonderful performances on the stage are one after another, Nanjing's opera masters set up a flowing water platform, classic repertoire is staged on the stage in turn, the most popular thing is naturally "Mu Guiying Breaks the Tianmen Array" and "Xue Rengui Expedition to the West" such heroic themes, these well-known ancient heroes can best make them and the current War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, this no one shouts to see Yue Fei Yue Wumu.

The famous declaration of the anti-Japanese war by the highest authorities has spread all over the country:

"Use countless nameless Washingtons to create a famous Washington, and use countless nameless Yue Wumu to create a Yue Wumu of the Chinese nation."

Therefore, Yue Wumu has become synonymous with big heroes, and he is still a household name.

Huang Haoran is also going to Xinjiekou today, Minister He's Ministry of Military Affairs has thought thoughtfully, what more gimmicky propaganda material than Huang Haoran, an "anti-Japanese hero" and "a living contemporary Yue Wumu"?

If Huang Haoran, a "famous anti-Japanese general", was suddenly pushed out in the square where hundreds of thousands of people gathered, wouldn't the citizens all have to go crazy and donate money?

Minister He just wants to borrow Huang Haoran's "celebrity effect" to fill the purse of the Ministry of Military Affairs that is about to bottom out.

So when the donation was close to the climax, Huang Haoran was pushed out, and seeing the living Commander Huang wearing the uniform of the lieutenant general, the people's mood was pushed to a new peak again.

A huge national flag was carried across the square, some people threw their wallets in, some people even lost their coats, and some people didn't have time to take out the private money hidden under the shoe store, and they took off their shoes in a hurry and threw them up, and more and more banknotes gathered on the national flag, including fiat currency, copper, foreign exchange and silver dollars.

There are a total of 3 gold donation platforms in Xinjiekou, one at the entrance of the Central Shopping Mall, the bronze statue of Mr. Sun Yat-sen, and the Central Reserve Bank, and there are mobile donation platforms on the road. General Zhang, Song Qingling, Song Meiling and other celebrities all participated in the donation. At the entrance of the central mall, hundreds of rickshaw drivers lined up in groups to donate money, and some women from Qinglou also participated.

All the schools in Nanjing called on their classmates to donate money for the anti-Japanese resistance, and in countless alleys, one by one the "stuffy gourds" (piggy banks burned in the soil) were smashed to the ground and smashed, and there was a student in Nanjing Jinling Middle School who had about 20 oceans in the "stuffy gourd", and the rest were all some change. His parents saw that it was too little, and added more than 20 yuan, making up 50 yuan for him to give, which was equivalent to his father's salary for two months.

The gold offering platform of the bronze statue of Mr. Sun Yat-sen was even more surrounded.

Behind the gold offering stage, the "Children's Troupe" from the Northeast sang "On the Songhua River" and sang "Daddy, Daddy, when will we be able to gather together?" When the sound of tears fell, passers-by saw this scene and emptied their purses.

Among the donors was a father in his 60s, whose family depended on his son to set up a cigarette stand.

He said that he was going to sell his longevity materials to donate money.

The son disagreed, saying, "What will we do when you are a hundred years later?" Daddy lost his temper, "The Japanese have hit the doorstep, in case Nanjing falls, we will all die and have no place to bury, what else do we talk about?" The son was still a little hesitant, but the father was very firm, "After I die, I can use a roll of reed mats, and you listen to me and sell the coffin is filial piety; If you don't sell it, you don't have filial piety. In the end, the father and son reached an agreement to donate the money from the sale of the coffin.

Huang Haoran knew about it, found the father and son, sent their donations back, and paid for it himself, but the father refused to live or die, Huang Haoran was helpless, left one yuan, threw it into the donation table, and stuffed the rest back.

Huang Haoran held his father's hand and said: "We soldiers can't be humiliated outside the country, we are already sorry for the people, and we must not let you donate all the money from the sale of the coffin." You keep this money, live well, and I'll put the rest on the pad, and I, Huang Haoran, will definitely swear to kill more devils! Live up to people's expectations! ”

After speaking, Huang Haoran and Daddy burst into tears!

Due to the large number of participants, the original three days were changed to five days, and a total of donations of more than 1 million yuan were received......
