Chapter 459: The war resumes

Not only pilots and naval officers are trained in the training center, but also spies and doctors. @This chapter is lonely http://

It was a spy in the British Navy who used his identity as a file manager to obtain a lot of information on the sea and naval warfare, which greatly supplemented the realism of the training center. In addition to this, spies were infiltrated by some secret services in the United States, Japan, Soviet Russia, and even the Germans. However, due to the limited number of places and the high price of spies, the number of spies is less than two whites.

However, as the training center is upgraded and the number of places increases, the number of spies will also increase significantly. Although they started out a little clumsy, identity has given them the best cover. Without the involvement of interests, others would not believe that so many caring international people come to serve Huaxia. Meng Xiang only needs to constantly place spies everywhere and improve a network all over the world little by little.

In addition, doctors, quartermasters, snipers, special forces, engineers, etc. all need to be trained and upgraded, even if the number of places in the training center increases, it still cannot meet the actual demand.

In this regard, Meng Xiang has long been prepared, and the revival of China still needs to rely on himself, relying on 50,000 ordinary people to strive for his own happiness.

The talents that are lacking can be cultivated by themselves. Except for the fact that spies have some difficulties, the others can gradually increase the strength of ordinary people. Such as the Aviation School, the Naval School, the Military Medical College, the 6th Army School, the Engineer School, etc., have been established on the territory of the Pioneer Army. Even if the shadow company and intelligence network controlled by the spies, Meng Xiang also arranged a second set of plans to take over with ordinary people. This can also prevent the collapse of the entire vanguard system after an accident at the base.

This is also the reason why Meng Xiang has always insisted on focusing on the strength of ordinary people, and the clone is just a guide.

They are now just wearing an army composed of ordinary people, and they are changing this army according to Meng Xiang's will to imprint the country and Meng Xiang.

The vanguard army is adjusting and expanding rapidly, and now that Meng Xiang has determined the size of the two million regular army, the recruitment points are once again open and expanded.

But the growing number of the vanguard has provoked some criticism.

The vanguard army of 1.5 million is already amazing, if it is 3 million, how can others live? Even if Lao Chiang united with other warlords, he couldn't withstand the impact of the three million vanguard army.

As a result, all kinds of remarks advocating that the vanguard army disregarded the people's livelihood and recklessly recklessly recklessly attacked the army. Lao Chiang and the other forces were all of a unified voice this time, and they aimed the spearhead at the vanguard army.

"Have they forgotten that the Japanese military boots are still stepping on our Chinese soil? Can this not be recruited? Catching strong men elsewhere is even better than us. Zhou Bai said angrily, "What else is there to disregard people's livelihood? This year, except for the newly occupied Gansu and Qinghai provinces, almost no people have died of starvation in the rest of the places. Where else can it be compared, and many places in Hunan, Jiangxi, Sichuan and other places still don't know how many people can't eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner this year. Those newspapers are always talking nonsense! ”

"Didn't you say you wanted freedom of speech? It's okay, let them say it! Let what they say is out of the blue, and the things around the people, they can't tell it themselves? Meng Xiang didn't bother to hurt his mind about this anymore, what is false is always false, and the truth blown by lies is like the emperor's new clothes, and sooner or later it will be exposed. Telling too many lies will arouse people's rebellious mentality, and in the future, when they tell the truth, few of them will believe it.

Once the integrity is lost, it is difficult to recover it.

"But the people outside the war zone don't know whether it's true or not?" Zhou Bai sighed that there is less information contact, and people can only distinguish the true from the false through the only few channels, and in some time periods, the fake can also become true.

"Now our voices are loud too! Are you afraid that others won't hear you? Meng Xiang said with a smile. Naturally, there is a propaganda department below, and it is natural to go-for-tat to play against the table, and Meng Xiang does not need to worry too much. If the propaganda department presided over by Zuo Paohui can't even deal with this problem, then he will live up to Meng Xiang's expectations in vain.

Zuo Paohui is also an old man who followed the vanguard army, from the time of Nanjing City, he helped the vanguard army to agitate propaganda, and his own ability is also outstanding, at the age of twenty-five, he can already carry the banner of the propaganda department, and become the second person in the propaganda department after Rat Ten.

"This time, after all, a lot of people are involved." Zhou Bai frowned and said, "They directly accuse us of only provoking a civil war now and forgetting to fight the Japanese!" ”

"The best way to fight back is to speak with facts. We must not only train our troops on the training ground, but also put them on the battlefield. A soldier who has not experienced the grind of the battlefield is not a real veteran. Meng Xiang looked at Fan Chong and nodded slightly.

"West or South?" Zhou Bai saw this action and couldn't help but ask with a smile.

"Southside!" Meng Xiang's eyes had already drifted to the big map on the wall.

Although he said that he didn't care, the expansion of the northwest also brought a lot of public opinion pressure. After all, this was also a civil war, which directly disturbed the entire political situation in China at this time. There is no way to do this, Meng Xiang originally planned to attack as soon as possible after Lao Jiang broke the ring against other forces.

But because of the rise of the vanguard army, it not only squeezed Lao Chiang's sphere of influence, but also squeezed the living space of other forces. As a result, although there were constant minor frictions between the Central Army and the Red Party, they did not intensify the greater contradictions, and all sides regarded the vanguard army as the greatest threat. Once the vanguard army grows stronger, it can't hide the hideousness of the giant beast.

As a result, Meng Xiangkuai changed his strategy and attacked directly, so as not to miss the opportunity of World War II.

However, after occupying the northwestern provinces in one go, the vanguard army also needed to stop and digest. Several of the provinces there were too large, and the bad weather made it somewhat difficult to recover the remnants of the enemy. In order to lay a good foundation there, the newly built construction corps has already left for the frontier.

When, on the basis of the tacit understanding of all parties, the possibility of expanding the strength of the vanguard army was realized, and the propaganda department of the vanguard army shouted the slogan of "defending the land and building the frontier", Meng Xiang officially launched the model of the construction corps and formed five construction corps in one go.

Each construction corps did not set up more establishments, but directly adopted the establishment of corps, divisions, and regiments, which reduced the management establishment and was conducive to reducing management costs.

The two were divided into the First Construction Corps in Northern Xinjiang and the Second Construction Corps in Southern Xinjiang.

The Third Construction Corps in Qinghai and Gansu was resettled, and some people privately became the Tibetan Border Construction Corps. Although Deng Shaohu and the others entered Tibet, they did not move forward after arriving in Amdo. At this time, the Tibetan form was also very sensitive, the 9th Panchen Lama died two years ago, and a new Panchen Lama has not yet been elected. At this time, Tibet was unified.

The central government was busy with the war of resistance, and with the intervention of the British and Indians, the form there was delicate at this time. As soon as Deng Shaohu entered Tibet, he was protested by the clique. Meng Xiang resisted the threat of the British, and let Deng Shaohu's regiment move forward a lot, and he has been controlling Amdo. At this time, there are not as many rules and regulations as in later generations, and if you don't accept it, you will fight. Deng Shaohu and them scattered a Tibetan army of 1,000 people.

However, the pressure not only comes from the outside, but also the pressure from domestic public opinion also makes Meng Xiang temporarily seek stability and stabilize the rear first. The line drawn up with the Panchen Lama has not yet been negotiated, and it is not suitable for a large-scale operation. More critically, the pressure of logistics makes Meng Xiang need to use the base to stabilize his current achievements.

The construction of the Corps was established to support the logistics system outside the base.

The other two construction corps were arranged in Suiyuan and Chahar respectively, one west and one east controlled the grasslands of Inner Mongolia, forming a flanking attack on Outer Mongolia.

However, they were not in charge of attacking, although they were the same size as ordinary armies, and they had come out of the boot barracks. But the military standard of their camp is much lower than that of ordinary troops, but some construction skills are added accordingly.

They mainly absorbed soldiers from other armies who could not meet the requirements, as well as veterans of the vanguard army who were unwilling to retire due to injuries, and absorbed surplus labor in some areas because of the large number of people and the lack of land, and sent them to the frontier through army subsidies. Clear-eyed people can understand at a glance that this is Tunbian. However, the construction corps of the vanguard army is obviously different from the troops guarding the border, and they are more inclined to build and provide logistical support. Naturally, the border guards have other forces to carry out.

Historically, money bags and guns in the local government could not be held in the hands of one person, otherwise someone would inevitably stand on their own feet and a new warlord would emerge.

At this time, the power is restricted by clones, and it doesn't matter for the time being, but Meng Xiang will definitely not open this opening to leave hidden dangers in the future.

At this time, although the construction corps had not yet been fully staffed, it also had a scale of more than 200,000. These are also not included in Meng Xiang's 2oo million, but the treatment is not much worse. After all, the next step is that the stability of the rear of the frontier depends on them.

The vanguard army should not expand again until it has stabilized Gansu and other places. There has never been one in Shaanxi, where the Central Army, the Japanese, and the Red Party are still mixed together, and a delicate balance is maintained under the siege of the vanguard army on three sides.

The northwest should not be used again, and the northeast direction is also mainly defensive for the time being, and if he wants to train the soldiers, Meng Xiang turned his attention to the south.

After the Great War in the Central Plains, the Japanese army was no longer able to attack the vanguard army, and one was mainly defensive.

Under the little pressure of the vanguard army, the Japanese had completely withdrawn to the south of the Huai River. Even in the area of Zhumadian, where the vanguard army and the Japanese army confronted each other, the Japanese army consciously reduced the defenders in this area. There was only a narrow space from Zhumadian to Xinyang, and in case they were caught between the vanguard army and the central army, they would not have much power to parry.

Because of repeated defeats at the hands of the Vanguard, Japan's political scene was turbulent for a long time. For a long time, the junction between them and the vanguard army has been honest.

During this period of time, while the Japanese were recovering their vitality, they sat on the mountain and watched the chaos in China. Everyone else pointed the finger at the vanguard, giving them a kind of hope.

If there is civil strife in China, or even a fierce war, it will be the most powerful for them.

However, although the vanguard army provoked turmoil, the huge military strength of the vanguard army suppressed the chaotic situation at the same time. So that the Japanese want to sow discord, and there is not much chance. Who would dare to jump out and directly oppose the vanguard army at this time? At least until the vanguard army does not have radical behavior that disgusts the countrymen, no one will pick the blame. Moreover, everyone also knew that there was a Japanese next to him, so although there were various frictions in history, in the end, there was no large-scale full-scale battle, and such drastic means were not used to deal with the contradictions of all parties.

For their fake honesty, Meng Xiang is not pitiful at all. The fact that they took the initiative to cease the war did not mean that the vanguard army wanted to cease fighting. When they were busy in the northwest, the fact that the vanguard army was at peace with them did not mean that the two sides were at peace. Things in the northwest are stable for the time being, and the south naturally has the ability to attack.

January 31 of the 4o year is the year of the small year.

On this day, the artillery of the 57th Army, the 56th Army, and the 41st Division of the Vanguard Army shattered the tranquility of Layue, and rolled towards the Japanese troops in Henan and Anhui together with the smoke of firecrackers.

The 56th Army conquered Fuyang on the same day, and some of the men and horses of the 57th Army bypassed Zhumadian, which was arranged by the Japanese army like a hedgehog, captured Miyang, and cut off the connection between Nanyang, Zhumadian and Xinyang. The march of the 41st Division was even faster, directly crossing the Huai River, conquering Gushi, and forcing Yeji.

The devil was unprepared, and immediately panicked. After hesitating for a long time, Shunroku Hata, who had just become the commander of the Huaxia Dispatch Army, issued an order to defend Nanyang, Zhumadian and Xinyang. When the new official took office, he couldn't say that he was afraid of the vanguard army and retreated directly.

But this order of his did not stop the attack of the vanguard army. In three days, the 56th Army had already locked the retreat of the Henan devils on the border between Henan and Anhui.

"Can't wait any longer!" Seishiro Itagaki said calmly.

The daily consumption of the 50,000 devils he led was staggering, but it was impossible to count on the headquarters of the dispatch army, and the vanguard army had blocked any passage in the air. And the poverty around them also made it impossible for them to collect more supplies. The problem of food can be scavenged a little, but weapons and ammunition are always a problem. If it weren't for the fact that the Japanese had bought some people from the Central Army with a lot of money, they could have gotten some ammunition, but I'm afraid they wouldn't have lasted that long.

He knew that the reason why the Central Army did not fight them was because he hoped that they would fight the Red Party in the north for a while, so the Central Army still supplied them with ammunition after locking their passage to the south. The ammunition of the 50,000-strong army was provided, although it was purchased with a lot of money, but such a large amount, those in the upper echelons of the Central Army did not know it, it was really a joke.

Itagaki Seishiro also obeyed the will of the Central Army, looting some supplies on the territory of the Red Party, but he would not force them too much. Because he knows that no matter what the reason, as long as China is still in chaos, the Japanese will always have a chance. Although it did not have much to do with the Red Party, as a force opposing the Central Army, Japan's attitude was to hope to keep them in order to cause chaos in the future.

As for whether the Red Party will grow stronger in the future, he has also considered it. It is better for them to grow stronger, and then they can be a threat to the Central Army and the Vanguard Army.

Itagaki Seishiro didn't know that there was a red forbidden zone, he just felt that he couldn't figure out the layout of the vanguard army. In his opinion, the failure of the vanguard army to attack was only a matter of civil war. However, with the northwest falling into the hands of the vanguard army, it seems that the situation of the vanguard army dominating the family has gradually formed, even if the central army and other forces unite, they will not be able to stop the rapid rise of the vanguard army. So he knew that their Japanese army would not be here for long.

"We must get out!" When the cannon of the vanguard army in Henan sounded again, he felt that the crisis was approaching. If the vanguard army completely occupied Henan, it would cut off his last hope. He must be held accountable for the fifty thousand soldiers who followed him.

"All of them, attack south!" Seishiro Itagaki ordered.

On February 3, this group of devils entrenched in the Tongchuan area left behind everything superfluous, and the army suddenly advanced and attacked Xi'an in the south.

"It's a pity that I didn't wait a few days for the Spring Festival!" Seishiro Itagaki said with some pity. The Chinese people attach the most importance to the Spring Festival, and even if the garrison of the Central Army is repeatedly emphasized, it must be somewhat negligent and the most suitable for a sneak attack.

However, at this time, the New Year is approaching, and the army is also busy celebrating the New Year, and the attack of the devils this time is also a sudden attack on the Central Army.

After panicking for a long time, they still stabilized their line and launched a counterattack.

Although Hu Zongnan took care of the devils from time to time according to the instructions from above, he did not relax at all about these devils. Every time he provided a small amount of ammunition, he would withhold some of it, so as not to cause the devil to counterattack. It has set up a lot of defense lines in the face of devils, anyway, it is to prevent the red party and the devils.

So when the devil suddenly rushed over, he got the news early.

"These *** little devils!" Hu Zongnan was scolding, and at the same time, he was also looking forward to the devil running over. He knew that President Chiang had placed him here to guard against the Red Party. There were very few opportunities to fight the Japanese in the future, and even if the devils were guarded, they didn't release a few shots. At this time, since the devil came to the door by himself, he didn't beat them hard, and he was really unwilling.

"Hit! Give me a hard smack of these***! Hu Zongnan deliberately delayed the news reported to Lao Jiang and gave the order to counterattack first. A soldier should be proud to fight the national war.

The two sides started a fight in the area of Gaoling.

"The devil's artillery fire is too strong, ask for support!" Snowflake-like messages were constantly sent to Hu Zongnan.

"Nonsense, the little devil doesn't have much ammunition, how can he have a lot of artillery fire?" Hu Zongnan still has a rough idea of the transactions with the devils below, most of the ammunition supplied to the devils is firearms and ammunition, and the artillery is not given at all, and the various channels are returned and the flow is prohibited. Why did the Japanese come up with so many artillery pieces again?

He didn't know that when the Japanese were evacuating, under the command of Seishiro Itagaki Tsuishiro, they had prepared a lot of artillery and ammunition. The release of the Central Army and the Jin Army did not allow them to lose much ammunition. After entering Shaanxi, there was no pursuit by the vanguard army, and although the shells left before were not replenished, they were never used and retained.

In the previous skirmishes between the Japanese and the Central Army and the Red Party, they had always used firearms and kept buying ammunition with a lot of money, which made everyone think that they did not have much ammunition. No one would have expected that the Japanese would still have a big bottom in their hands.

This is also why Seishiro Itagaki dared to directly confront the relatively scattered 3o thousand army commanded by Hu Zongnan. With the support of artillery, he was still somewhat sure of the Central Army. Although the Japanese were driven by the vanguard army, they still had a little self-confidence against the Central Army.

However, there is not much surplus wealth, and it will be almost consumed after a battle. Itagaki Seishiro gambled on this, and directly used the accurate artillery fire of the Japanese to blast open the defense line of the Central Army.

"Resist, hold on!" Hu Zongnan came to the battlefield in person and shouted loudly, "Reinforcements are coming soon!" ”

In order to deal with this force of Japanese and the Red Party, even if the troops were insufficient, Lao Chiang still allocated 3o thousand troops to guard here. But the 30,000 troops still had to guard Baoji, Weinan and other places respectively, and the defense line was lengthened, and there were less than 150,000 people guarding Xi'an and other places. In addition, because of the Chinese New Year, he was caught off guard, and at this time, in the face of the fierce impact of 50,000 murderous devils, the position was a little unguardable.

"Retreat to Xi'an! Waiting for reinforcements! As a last resort, Hu Zongnan gave the order to retreat.

However, the Central Army has always been the least good at retreating, and when it retreats, the various hills that are afraid of its own losses have never been said to be whole, and they are often scattered in a collapse. This time was no exception, although under the suppression of Hu Zongnan, it was slightly better, but it was still chased by the Japanese for thirty miles, almost so that Hu Zongnan could not enter Xi'an City.

"Why did the vanguard run after the devils, and when we arrived, we became chased by the devils? What a fucking shit! A bearded regiment leader next to him muttered.

"Shut up! Defend the city! Hu Zongnan was also angry, but now is not the time to discuss this, the Japanese have already forced the city to take over, and they must hold Xi'an City.

The city of Xi'an is also a fortified city, even in the era of hot weapons, without the bombardment of heavy artillery, it is difficult to break. At that time, the power of the two tigers to defend the city was also with the help of the strong city of Xi'an. At this time, Hu Zongnan was also confident that he would hold the city, waiting for reinforcements to be in place. He also saw through the tricks of the devils, even if the devils have bottom goods, there will not be many. As long as the devils don't occupy Xi'an and get supplies, the devils can only be trapped and die under the city of Xi'an. Ro
