Chapter 990: Shucheng is lost

Lao Jiang stretched out his hand to take it, quickly browsed it, and gradually, his originally relaxed face changed, and he actually let out a long breath when he saw it in the end, and threw a meaningful look at Li Delin. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Li Delin smiled in return, he has been fighting with Lao Jiang for so many years, and he still doesn't know him?

He Jingzhi took it first, and after reading the content, he showed a look of surprise. He opened his mouth and did not express any opinion, but it was certain that he was extremely uneasy at the moment.

Chen Cixiu, Bai Jiansheng, Zhang Wenbai...... Liu Weizhang......

It took at least more than 10 minutes to circulate this pass.

In the end, the manuscript returned to Li Delin's hands.

He solemnly folded it up, handed it to the confidential secretary, and put it in his briefcase.

In the conference room, there was silence.

"Why, don't talk anymore, do you talk about it, do you have any opinions?" Lao Jiang opened his mouth first, and this suddenly became cold, and he, the leader, couldn't say a word.

"May I ask Brother Delin, does this thing represent the views of the Fifth War Zone?"

"No, I personally agree with his judgment." Li Delin shook his head slowly.

"I don't think this inference is valid at all, and there are even some conjecture elements." Xiong Bin, the deputy commander of the military command, stood up and said loudly.

"I want to hear about it."

"President, colleagues, first of all, the first point, just by the Japanese army's change of the second army's subordination, it is inferred that the next strategic target of the Japanese army is Wuhan, is this too child's play, perhaps, this is simply the Japanese army's deliberate smokescreen, just like a few days ago the Japanese side proposed to negotiate peace with us, in fact, a false shot, so that we relaxed our vigilance, in a blink of an eye they launched an attack on Luxi and eastern Henan, if it were not for this rainstorm and the timely digging of the embankment behind, maybe at this moment they have hit the city of Zhengzhou. Second, from the current deployment of the Japanese army, you can see that in Xuzhou, northern Anhui and southern Hebei, the Japanese army has entangled the main forces of more than eight divisions and regiments, forming a semi-encirclement of our first and fifth theaters, the purpose of which is to eat our elite troops in this area, as we all know, the first theater has our two elite troops, the new first army in northern Henan, and the eighth army in eastern Henan, these two troops can be said to be the most annihilated Japanese troops at present, and they are also the most capable troops, if they can eat these two troops, Then the blow to my country's confidence in the War of Resistance is huge......" Xiong Bin stepped forward and said his reasons.

"Vice Chief Xiong, if you stand in the perspective of the Japanese base camp, who is more important to occupy Wuhan and eliminate the two elite units of the New First Army and the Eighth Army?" Li Delin asked rhetorically.

"Naturally, this is more important than the capture of Wuhan."

"Wuhan is now the command center of the Anti-Japanese War, and the center of the revolution, the second capital, once it falls, which one will have a greater blow to the people's hearts and morale?"

"Naturally, Wuhan is even greater."

"Since we all think that the loss of Wuhan is even greater, why does the Japanese army have to attack northern Henan and pick the difficult bones to gnaw?"

"What does Chief Li mean that the Wuhan defense plan we have arranged cannot stop the Japanese attack?" Chen Cixiu asked with some displeasure.

"At least, now that we fight, we don't have a chance to win."

"Your plan is too conservative, why can't you take the initiative to attack?" At this time, the Soviet Russian military adviser, his bad coward, stood up, very indignant, waved his fist and asked, "I don't understand very much, war is not passively beaten, yes, you are in a weak position, but the Japanese army is not completely in an advantage, layer by layer fortification, that will only make the opponent spend more strength, you should take the initiative to attack, disrupt the opponent's offensive steps, so as to win the initiative, the initiative, my gentlemen!" ”

"General Cherepanov, what we are talking about now is the direction of the next main attack of the Japanese army, not our strategy to meet the enemy?"

"There is no doubt that the Japanese themselves are here to send troops to China for something, do they just want you to surrender and then agree to be their puppet?" Cherepanov said fiercely, "They want to occupy your country, they want to turn you into Japanese themselves, they want you to be slaves of the country, understand?" ”

"What does General Cherepanov mean that the next main direction of the Japanese attack is Wuhan?" Bai Jiansheng asked seriously.

"There's no doubt about it!"

"However, there seems to be no sign of this in the current deployment of Japanese troops, and their naval fleet is only staying in Qingcheng, and there are only ...... in Shanghai" He Jingzhi's face was very unnatural, he did not think that the Japanese army would attack Wuhan at the moment, at least the Japanese army had not mobilized enough troops.

"General Cherepanov, I heard that your country has a little bit of a motorcycle with the Japanese Kwantung Army in the northeast. Wipe? ”

"Yes, but that's not the point." Cherepanov snorted, it was a matter of state secrets, and he could not say much as a military adviser to China.

Soviet Russia had no intention of going to war with Japan at all, at least not yet.

The Japanese side deliberately created an incident and was also testing the attitude of Soviet Russia, but now it seems that the Japanese side is obviously showing signs that it cannot be controlled.

"It is only a matter of time before the Japanese army attacks Wuhan, but at present, there is no sign of this, and the weather is hot at the moment, the temperature is scorching, and it is the rainy season, which is not conducive to marching operations, we can use this time to improve our in-depth defense configuration, whether it is to block layer by layer or lure the enemy deep, as long as we have enough depth configuration, we can completely block the Japanese army." Minister of Military Orders Xu Yongchang said.

"If the First Theater can hold back the hundreds of thousands of elites of the Japanese army in northern Henan and Luxi, it will be extremely beneficial to defend Wuhan and gain time for evacuation."

"Well, although there are not many troops in the First Theater, there are elites like the New First Army and the Eighth Army, and it is possible to hold back the hundreds of thousands of elites of the Japanese army."

"Leng Guoguang still has a set of ...... to fight"

"According to my estimate, if the Japanese army attacks Wuhan, the preferred time should be in early September, when it is autumn, and there is at least a month of wet water in the Yangtze River waterway, which is convenient for the Japanese warships to move......

"Wuhan's industries, schools, and commercial institutions must immediately move westward from now on, regardless of whether the Japanese army will attack Wuhan or not, we must not hesitate at all." Li Delin solemnly reminded.

"Chief Li is too worried, we started to move before I called, what do the people think?"

"Although we have won a few major battles in some parts, our overall strength is weaker than that of the Japanese army, and I agree with Chief Li's suggestion to immediately move westward." Vice Minister Zhou of the Ministry of Military Affairs clearly expressed his views.

"EL, is this your personal opinion, or is it your Mr. Mao's opinion?"

"Chairman, this is a consensus within our party."

"Could it be that Mr. Zhou thinks we can't hold Wuhan?" Xiong Bin, the deputy commander of the military command, asked angrily.

"Vice Minister Xiong, these are two different things, we defend Wuhan, but once the fight starts, our industry and schools are the future of the country, if they are destroyed by the Japanese army, don't you think it's a pity?" Vice Minister Zhou asked rhetorically.

Xiong Bin's face was pale, and he couldn't refute it.

"I think Mr. Zhou's proposal is good, we should now start to move important industrial and mining enterprises, schools and scientific research institutions to the west, even if Wuhan becomes a second Nanjing, with these, we can make a comeback." Zhang Wenbai said sonorously.

"That's right, especially the factories we withdrew from Nanjing, Shanghai and other places, a large number of machines and materials squeezed Wuhan, at this time must be rushed to Chongqing and other places to resume production, as long as the factories are restored, we can have a steady stream of materials to fight against the Japanese invaders."

"Delin, do you have anything else to say?" Lao Jiang asked, Li Delin fought a big victory in Xuzhou, and his prestige was very high, although it had not threatened his position, but he had to be on guard.

Lao Li has always been very difficult with him.

"Mr. Jiang, ladies and gentlemen, what I want to say is that we need to pay more attention to Japan and myself, have we suffered less losses before? Not to mention, not long ago, the Japanese army blew the wind of peace, saying that it was going to negotiate with us, but launched an attack on Yudong and Luxi, I don't know if you are blowing air conditioners and drinking tea here, have you ever thought about what kind of scene is the common people who are soaked in the flood and crying out for the sky and the earth? Li Delin said with a hint of resentment.

Some people's eyes wandered, at this time, which pot is not opened and which pot is not mentioned, isn't this poking Lao Jiang's heart and lung tubes?

He gave the order to dig the embankment, didn't he have to take on this responsibility?

"Degong, what do you want to say?"

"I have to mean that we must not be paralyzed by the illusion made by the Japanese army, although the Japanese army has no sign of attacking Wuhan at present, but with the strong mechanization ability of the Japanese army, they can gather 200,000 elite troops in three days, which is incomparable to us."

"Three days, does the Japanese army have such a strong mobility ability?"

"According to reliable sources, they have repaired the railway from Xuzhou to Pukou, and now they have captured Yanzhou, and once the Jinpu line is repaired, their logistical support capacity will be strengthened." The words of Xu Peigen, director of the intelligence department, seem to corroborate Li Delin's inference.

As he spoke, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and Lao Jiang's confidential secretary Mao Qingxiang hurriedly walked in.

Everyone looked at Lao Jiang, something must have happened, otherwise Mao Qingxiang would not have come to disturb such an important military meeting at this time.

"Commission, the Japanese army in Hefei suddenly attacked, Shucheng was lost, Xu Yuanquan's troops retreated west to Lu'an, and Yang Sen's troops were defeated."

Lao Jiang's face changed slightly, this news came too suddenly, Shucheng was lost, and Anqing, the capital of Anhui, would be in danger.

This was a dangerous signal, at least Lao Chiang did not believe in the judgment that the Japanese army would not attack Wuhan immediately.

"Which Japanese army attacked Shucheng?"

"The 6th Brigade of the 11th Division of the Japanese Army, the commander should be Major General Tokutaro Sakai." Mao Qingxiang said.
