Chapter 131: 5 War Zones Need Huang Haoran
9.131 5 War Zone needs Huang Haoran
"Send a telegram to the 6th Division and ask where they are now!"
After listening to Okamura Ninji's question clearly, Chief of Staff Yoshimoto Sadaji asked his staff officers for the latest summary of the battle report, and then quickly picked out the copy about the 6th Division and handed it to Okamura Ninji. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Thirty minutes ago, the 6th Division telegraphed that they were in this position, and if the average speed of their advance over the past few days was calculated, the 6th Division's current position should be here......"
Yoshimoto Sadaji was indeed a competent chief of staff, and without checking any information, he immediately took the command post and pointed out the location of the 6th Division on the map, and also explained the reasons. Okamura's gaze followed the command pole in the hands of Chief of Staff Sadaji Yoshimoto back and forth a few times at two points on the map, and then stopped at the town of Tajia, east of the location of the 6th Division.
Tianjiazhen Fortress, that is the last barrier of Wuhan, once the 11th Army opens this closed gate, to the west through Xishui, it can directly attack Hankou, which is located in the north of the Jiangbei of the three towns of Wuhan, this is really the best shortcut to take Wuhan!
Of course, the commander of the Chinese army will definitely realize the importance of the Tianjiazhen fortress, which is a battleground for soldiers, and then deploy heavy troops there! Not to mention anything else, just the permanent fortifications of Tianjiazhen Fortress designed and constructed according to German drawings will be a great trouble.
But isn't there a saying in China called wealth and danger? Ninji Okamura, who has made up his mind, decides to start the action immediately!
"Send a telegram to Inaba Shiro and order the 6th Division to change the route of the march, quickly occupy Huangmei, and then take Guangji! Send another telegram to the 27th Division, ordering them to send an infantry wing as the second echelon to protect the flank and rear of the 6th Division! I want to take Tianjia Town, and then directly bombard Wuhan and force the Wuhan government to surrender to the empire! ”
Although Okamura's plan was very idealistic, it was very much to the taste of Japanese officers. Since those madmen can regard the small island country as the center of the world, they will naturally believe that the Japanese army is invincible! The fiasco in the Far East was nothing more than an accident in their eyes due to lack of preparation.
"I'll give orders to the 6th and 27th Divisions! The 11th Army will win! The Imperial Army will win! Long live the Great Japanese Empire! Long live His Majesty the Emperor! ”
What is unthinkable is that even Chief of Staff Yoshimoto Sadaji, who looks rational on the outside, actually has a madman living inside, and Okamura Ninji successfully ignited the ambition of the 11th Army! The 11th Army now no longer wants Jiujiang and Madao, their target has become Wuhan! Wuhan! Wuhan!
************************************************************************
This big move by Okamura Ninji on the north bank of the Yangtze River pushed Li Pinxian, commander of the 4th Corps of the 5th Theater stationed on the front line of Huangmei and Guangji, into the oil pot.
According to the battle plan prepared earlier by the 5th Theater, Li Pinxian's corps should avoid a decisive battle with the Japanese army in the area east of Huangmei, and the purpose was to delay the 6th Division by resisting one after another; After the 6th Division advanced westward to the Huangmei and Guangji areas and opened up a distance from the Japanese troops in the rear, it fought a major battle with the 6th Division in the Huangmei and Guangji areas.
Therefore, at the beginning of the war, the troops of the southern front of the 5th Theater did not fight to the death with the Japanese army on the highways of Qianshan, Taihu Lake, and Susong in accordance with this guiding ideology, but took a posture of resolute resistance whenever they encountered rivers, hills, and other geographically favorable areas, and first occupied the favorable terrain and were bent on advancing rapidly by frontal assault, and when the 6th Division felt that it had to be taken seriously, the troops on the southern front of the 5th Theater took the initiative to retreat. In order to avoid falling into the tactics of the Japanese army splitting and attacking the combined attack, the flank of the detour. In this way, the 6th Division was harassed by the troops of the southern front of the 5th Theater and was never able to advance quickly, and it has not had the opportunity to get involved in Huangmei and Guangji.
But now all the circumstances have changed, the battles of Fujinshan and Huangchuan have involved all the energy of "Xiao Zhuge ", and the counterattack plan of the 4th Corps has been shelved indefinitely. However, the Japanese suddenly quickened their movements, and after Okamura Ninji gave a clear goal of attack, Inaba Shiro immediately became resolute and led his 6th Division along the road towards Huangmei. With regard to the "little tricks" put forward by the 5th Theater along the way, Shiro Inaba always took a disregarding attitude, preferring to suffer a small number of casualties than stop fighting.
After the 4th Corps, which was caught off guard, retreated dozens of kilometers in one day in front of the 6th Division, Li Pinxian had to order his troops to launch a large-scale frontal battle with the 6th Division, which finally temporarily blocked the crazy Inaba Shiro.
Whenever he saw the casualty figures of the troops reported by the division commander below every day, Li Pinxian had a terrible headache, and he was not afraid of fighting a bad battle Li Pinxian, but it seemed that this defensive battle would never have a result! The Theater Commander's Department and the Military Commission are both of the same caliber, and they only know that one telegram after another ordered the 4th Corps to defend it, but they never told Li Pinxian what to do after they defended it?
Is it a counterattack, or a diversion? Li Pinxian, who felt that he couldn't see the future at all, was getting more and more bottomless in his heart!
"No matter! Send a report directly to Chief Bai! Ask him to show us the way through the 4th Legion! I don't believe that the Commander's Department will ignore the men and horses of our three armies! That's right! Send another telegram to the Wuhan Garrison Command! If Huangmei and Guangji are lost, the little devil will go to Tianjia Town! We are also guarding the gate for the Jiang Defense Army! He, Huang Youchen, don't want to hide away! ”
Li Pinxian would have expected that his move of "hurrying to the horse" was exactly what "Xiao Zhuge expected", from the position of the headquarters, Huang Haoran's Wuhan Garrison Command was closer to Guangji and Huangmei garrisoned by Li Pinxian's army than the 5th Theater Commander's Department, and at the moment of the fierce fighting at the northern foot of Dabie Mountain, "Xiao Zhuge " really hoped to pull Huang Haoran's Jiangfang Army into the combat sequence of the 5th Theater, if he got Huang Haoran's help, then even if he lost Huangmei and Guangji, he was willing!
"Since Li Pinxian has opened this head, let's help him increase his momentum! Brother Yanmou! I think you can draft a telegram and send it to Huang Youchen to provoke him to make a move, how about it? ”
"Xiao Zhuge " smiled very thiefly, compared to the elder brother of Chief Li, his style of doing things as the No. 2 person of the "Gui Department" seems to be a little "not very authentic", but fortunately, Xu Zuyi, Chief of Staff of the 5th War Zone, has always had a good relationship with the "Gui Department", and he should not leak what "Xiao Zhuge said".
As the saying goes, please don't want to be excited, let the Japanese pull Huang Haoran to help Li Pinxian's army!
************************************************************************
"Let's see! Li Heling (Li Pinxian's words) This is really urgent, and the telegrams asking for help have been sent to the head office! What do you want to say? Obviously it's a matter of the 5th war zone, why didn't Li Heling go to Bai Jiansheng? ”
Fan Jie held the telegram sent by Li Pinxian in his hand, and kept complaining to the officers in the Wuhan Garrison Headquarters, in Fan Jie's opinion, this is clearly a trick played by "Xiao Zhuge ", and he wants to transfer the Jiang Defense Army under Huang Haoran to help the 5th War Zone plug the hole! In fact, Fan Jie was originally willing to fight devils, but he didn't want the 25th Army to be calculated in the government all the time!
"No matter! In spite of! Absolutely no matter! Wang Huanzhi's thoughts were similar to Fan Jie's, and his tone of voice was also very unkind: "If the general seat rashly intervenes in this matter, I am afraid that Bai Jiansheng will get cheap and behaved!" 5. If the theater really wants us to help, then go and give the Military Commission a message! If you want us to work long hours for them in vain, how can there be such a good thing in the world! ”
"But if we really don't care about Li Pinxian's troops, then Huangmei Guangji will be hanging! At that time, our Jiang Defense Army will still be on the front line! In addition, the head seat also served as the deputy commander of the 5th theater, and this is not too ...... to die soon after leaving office."
However, what Cao Fulin, the commander of the 55th Army, said was very pertinent, and the current situation was really not a matter of will, and he must not watch Li Pinxian's 4th Army being defeated by the Japanese army! Being reminded by Cao Fulin like this, Fan Jie and Wang Huanzhi's brains finally turned around, but the anger in their hearts obviously couldn't be suppressed at once, Wang Huanzhi couldn't help but puff up and said:
"It's okay to save the 4th Legion, but we have to talk to Chief Bai first, who is responsible for this success? There is also the question of the rectification in the future......"
In the end, Wang Huanzhi is an officer who is engaged in logistics support, and he does not leave his profession in three sentences, and he has just loosened his attitude in the front, and he has calculated the economic account in the back. This is where Wang Huanzhi's strengths lie, the 25th Group Army is now a large group of more than 100,000 people, and it must settle accounts and get by. Someone has to say something like helping someone to fight a war for good! If you always blindly want fame and not actual benefits, Huang Haoran can't afford to toss a few times with the little money he has finally accumulated.
Huang Haoran first gave Wang Huanzhi an encouraging look with a smile, calmed Wang Huanzhi's emotions, and then set his eyes on Fan Jie's face, and then said word by word:
"The War of Resistance is not a matter of any one person or any army, and fighting a small Japan must be regarded as a big account of the country and the nation, and we can't always hold on to the interests of a small group! If I had such an idea in Nanjing City, I am afraid that hundreds of thousands of troops would have to be trapped in the city, and not a single one of them would have rushed out! ”
Even if these words set the tone for this meeting, Huang Haoran has already decided to intervene in the war in the direction of Huangmei Guangji, and there is no need to discuss the topic of opposition.
"The general seat is right, I lost my temper just now, I review ......"
"My attitude is not good, I also have to review ......"
Fan Jie and Wang Huanzhi have always been staunch supporters of Huang Haoran, and after Huang Haoran made his attitude clear, the two of them immediately turned around and fought on Huang Haoran's side. Seeing that the No. 1, 2, and 3 people in the headquarters had already reached an agreement, the other officers naturally did not dare to have any objections!
"But this army, you must be famous! We can't leave people with a handle! There is also the use of play, we have to have the final say! I'm not used to fighting under someone else's command......"
Seeing that there was no longer a need to discuss the item of participating in the war, Huang Haoran began to extend the topic downward......
