"Outside the nickname, the vanguard army has made another miraculous feat! Annihilate the 110th and 114th Divisions! ”

"There is a light in the war! All south of the Yellow River in Shandong have been recovered! ”

"Under the correct leadership of Chairman Chiang, the 57th Army, the 54th Army, and the 56th Army made new achievements and completely annihilated the 114th Division!"

"200,000 Central Army is not as good as a vanguard army! What is the difference between the 14th Division and the 114th Division? ”

"The 114th Division is simply a third-rate team, and it is vulnerable!"

The enthusiasm of the people in the country has been ignited again, and this is another record of the total annihilation of the devil division. Many ordinary people know that the devil is now only twenty or thirty divisions, and now three have been wiped out. Finally saw hope, although the name of the vanguard army could be diluted by the central media, the legend of destroying two divisions in three days quickly spread.

Hearing that the 114th Division would be completely wiped out in one day, Sugiyama Mototo immediately ordered the 101st Division to stop advancing and stay in the Guanyun area.

The 6th Division advanced rapidly, and the vanguard along the Jinpu line arrived in Xuzhou on the same day. Meng Xiang, who originally planned to add some more military exploits, had to give up. To deal with the two main divisions of the devils, the vanguard army was not well prepared at this time.

And Meng Xiang waited for the revenge of the devil until September 1, and there was no movement. The battlefield of the entire Longhai Line was surprisingly silent.

"The strength of the vanguard army must be re-examined!" Sugiyama Moto's deep voice first said, "They only have four divisions, to be precise, only two divisions plus a 57th Army of the Central Army!" It only took one day, and it only took one day to make the entire Taniguchi division martyred. Remember, it was only one day, and although the next two days continued to kill the lost soldiers of our empire, the main force of Taniguchi's division was defeated by the vanguard army in only one day, and even half a day. This is the most dangerous place for the Vanguard! ”

"One of their divisions could have more than 30,000 troops. Two divisions are equivalent to three of our divisions. Shouichi Terauchi couldn't help but speak. Although the loss of the 114th this time has been taken over by Sugiyama Moto, the lack of combat effectiveness of the 114th Division due to factors such as unfavorable training before it can ultimately be attributed to him.

"And they also have the support of airplanes! Without the cover of the aircraft, we would not be able to successfully fight the Vanguard on the ground! ”

"The Vanguard has a kind of plane that seems to be bulky, and now none of the planes of the Empire can withstand it. There are also German BF-109 aircraft, which are not comparable to the Reich aircraft either. There was also a dive bomber, which was also used by the Germans in Spain, and was also used by this vanguard army. The kind of bomber that appeared the other day also resembles a new bomber of the Germans. Lieutenant General Tokugawa Yoshitoshi, who also attended the meeting, may be the youngest in the military here, but he is the commander of the newly formed official Huaxia Air Corps.

"The Germans, we'll take care of it!" Sugiyama replied.

Some time ago, the Germans had sent a lot of supplies and machinery to the territory of the vanguard army, although many things had been inspected by Yu himself and did not involve military affairs, but after all, it was an act of the enemy. In addition, many of the weapons of the Vanguard Army were related to the Germans, and even I had to wonder whether the Vanguard Army was a testing ground for German weapons.

"The Reich is also developing new planes, which will be far superior to those of the Germans when the time comes!" Sugiyama Mototo, revealed. The appearance of the advanced aircraft of the Pioneer Army made him increase the research and development of new aircraft, and the famous Zero was designed in 1937, and at this time, under the stimulation of the Pioneer Army, the speed of development was accelerated.

"Now there may be more than 200 aircraft in the Vanguard Army, and 500 old planes are not enough to pose much of a threat to it!" Tokugawa said again. At this time, with the increase in the speed of monoplanes, it was popular in the world to disengage the tactics of one-hit detachment, just like the one-hit killer of Thunderbolt, rather than the dogfight tactics of circling and grappling in the era of biplanes. The old planes simply couldn't catch the advanced and stupid planes of the Vanguard, and the 7.7 machine guns didn't have much effect on it. In the air battle, although he had a numerical advantage, it was not a battle in which all 500 planes poured in. Except for some of the fighters, there was no room for the 500 planes to be squeezed together. More than 100 planes are crowded together and are prone to accidental injuries.

Although Tokugawa Yoshitoshi didn't say much, the meaning was very clear, 500 planes may not necessarily win air supremacy. In this air fight, he was killed 21 planes, while the vanguard army only lost 4 planes. And speculation among the Vanguard may have more than a hundred fighters.

Without air supremacy, under the threat of aircraft bombs and machine guns, how to go to war with the Vanguard?

"There is a clear shortage of anti-aircraft artillery in all units, and it is necessary to draw them from the mainland and Manchuria, Korea and other places. Without anti-aircraft artillery, the soldiers of the Empire would not be able to fight the planes in the sky! Terauchi Shouichi scratched his head that because of the involvement of Soviet Russia, the anti-aircraft artillery was concentrated on the border.

"The local area is increasing the production of anti-aircraft artillery!" Sugiyama replied that the threat of the Pioneer Army's aircraft was not so big at first, and it could be resisted by relying on the dogfights of the devil's aircraft, and as the Pioneer Army's aircraft became stronger and stronger, the devils paid more and more attention to the Pioneer Army, and the anti-aircraft artillery was arranged to the Vanguard Army's side, but if you want to arrange it all at once, local production will also take time.

"The battle loss rate between the emperor [***] team and the vanguard army, after the study of the base camp, has been determined to be 1 to 2, and now the vanguard army has 150,000 troops in their hands, and they are very brave in battle, and they have not seen a record of them fleeing without a fight, even if they destroy 100,000 of them, the empire needs to pay the price of 50,000 people. And even more! They could raise another 100,000 troops at any moment. The local people of China are very active in joining the army! Yan Junliu interjected beside him.

"The Central Army of China has expanded by 300,000 this month!" Okamura Ninji interjected. He had just been promoted from the 2nd Division to the commander in charge of the newly formed 11th Army, and at this time, the Botian Detachment, which was mainly formed by the Taiwanese, and other teams that advanced along the Yangtze River were placed under his jurisdiction.

This is mainly caused by Yan Junliu's advocacy of not expanding the scale of the war, holding the existing territory, and slowly digesting it. aroused the dissatisfaction of the radicals in the local area, and this led to Okamura Ninji's promotion to the next level.

"As long as time is left for the Central Army, the threat of the Central Army will be greater!" Okamura Ninji said eagerly.

His 11th Army had already captured Jiujiang and was only a step away from Wuhan. The crown of defeat of the Central Army of China may have fallen on his head. It was hard for him to imagine that the Empire's biggest opponent in the strategy of China should be the political axe of the old Chiang Central Committee, who represented the orthodoxy. Abandoning the central political axe to deal with a warlord, no matter how powerful he is, is a strategic mistake.

With the orthodoxy of the Central Army on top of the pressure, the two puppet military regimes established in North China and Central China could not be recognized by the people. All kinds of solicitation work could not be carried out smoothly. Relying only on forcible suppression, the empire consumes too much energy.

"I don't know if it's that bastard's idea, it's so short-sighted!" He secretly cursed in his heart, the Botian detachment and other troops were guarding near Jiujiang, and they could only sit and watch the Central Army on the opposite side continue to stabilize the defensive line.

This kind of thinking of his is known to Sugiyama Moto, Terauchi Shouichi and others. People who don't know the vanguard can't appreciate his threat, he grows up too fast. If it is not stifled in time, I am afraid that he will soon grow into a behemoth that can replace the Central Army. In particular, after the Vanguard Army launched the subsistence allowance policy, the people in the base camp pointed out after analysis that relying on the current finances of Shandong and other places cannot support this huge plan, and the only possibility is to continue to expand outward and use the wealth plundered from outside to maintain this seemingly beautiful bubble. Once it loses the support of external wealth, it will fall apart. Therefore, it was judged that the vanguard army was very aggressive.

But when the vanguard army quickly wiped out the two divisions of the devil, he began to consider the gains and losses.

"To fully solve the vanguard army, we need to lose three main divisions, and a division like 101, we may need to lose five, or even six. After defeating the vanguard army, we may not be able to launch a large-scale campaign against the Central Army in China for at least half a year. Yan Junliu said slowly, he still insisted on his proposition, did not expand the scale of the war, slowly digested the occupied areas, and continued to encroach on the surrounding areas.

"A comprehensive solution to the vanguard army is impossible for the time being!" Shouichi Terauchi shook his head slightly and said, "We learned from the territory of the vanguard army that the common people there have been bought by the vanguard army's subsistence allowance policy, and if the emperor [***] team enters, they will face more than just 150,000 vanguard troops. ”

Seeing that Shouichi Terauchi suddenly changed his mouth, with the intention of opposing the attack on the vanguard, the corners of Yan Junliu's mouth curled slightly, which embarrassed Sugiyama Yuan.

What is the use of simply defeating the threat of the vanguard army that cannot solve them? As the vanguard of the attack, Sugiyama Moto, who was already facing collective opposition from North and Central China at this time.

Terauchi Shouyi looked at Yan Junliu, and kept muttering in his heart, he had already understood the strength of the vanguard army, and he couldn't get any benefits from the vanguard army, even if there was any mistake in attacking the vanguard army, the blame would be borne by Sugiyama Moto, but at that time, the black cauldron, who was the main force of the attack, would not be able to run.

The local battle needs him to produce results that have been defeated heavily, otherwise he will not be able to keep his position. Recently, there have been rumors that Sugiyama Motolai will take over, this is not groundless, and he needs to act as soon as possible. And for him, the best battle achievement is still the Central Army in the south, at this time Zhengzhou is in hand, relying on the support of the Pinghan Railway, all the way through, maybe even faster than Central China that is blocked by several Yangtze River fortresses.

"When the empire sent troops, there was a worry that the Nanjing political axe would eliminate the hidden dangers and be about to unify the whole country. At this time, with the vanguard army, it is more threatening than the original Jin army and the Gui army, and I believe that Jiang Zhongzheng will also be worried. One mountain can't accommodate two tigers, and the people of China are the best at infighting. It's not a bad thing to keep the vanguard! At that time, it may be more effective to use China to control China. Yan Junliu also took advantage of the situation and said.

"It's good to use China to contain China, but now the strength of the Central Army is still too big, and it needs to be reduced a little more to make other forces stand out." Shouichi Terauchi followed up and said.

Sugiyama Yuan sneered in his heart, both of them had made up their minds to attack Wuhan, which was exactly what he wanted. He understood the strength of the vanguard army, without ten divisions and regiments, he did not dare to win, but where are there so many soldiers to send at this time? When the time comes, instead of being defeated, it is better to take advantage of this time to stop. North China and Central China both plan to attack Wuhan to make a record, and neither side is convinced, so the final commander-in-chief will definitely fall on him. How could he shirk such a good thing?

"Your opinions, I will give you the base camp and let His Majesty the Emperor decide!" He said with a straight face.

"It's the 5th, why haven't there been any movement?" Meng Xiang is also strange, when this devil is about to attack the vanguard army, judging from the leaked news, the momentum is very strong, why did he die in the blink of an eye?

"I am not monolithic inside. Maybe they've changed their strategy again! Fan Chong said with a smile.

"Changed again so quickly!" Meng Xiang was speechless, in fact, he didn't know that his strategy was not short-sighted, but had been swaying and constantly changing. In order to balance the power at home and maintain imperial power, the army, navy, and many of the factions within it were close in strength, and the frequent alternation of power made a stable strategy an empty word. The constant change of strategy is the reason why I have repeatedly made stupid moves.

So they set a goal to catch up, and I said that I was very tenacious, but when they stood in front, vacillation and short-sightedness made their whole nation lose the direction of progress, and it was easy to slide into the abyss. This is a common problem of a single nation with a single culture, lacking the heritage, without the ability to digest foreign civilizations, and with a single direction of civilization evolution, it is easy to be radical and lead to the decline of the entire nation.

At least the Germans have their own unique civilization that they can adhere to, but he himself is constantly swaying and losing himself in the intersection of Eastern and Western civilizations. The trick of breaking away from Asia and joining Europe is ridiculous.

"The results will come soon!" Fan Chong's heart was relieved, the vanguard army attacked this time, and in a short period of time, it completely annihilated a division of devils, which greatly increased his confidence in the vanguard army. Resisting one's own attack with a provincial land is no longer a fool's dream. It's just that the only thing I'm worried about is the finances.

Although this battle lasted only three days, the ammunition consumed was no worse than in a previous large-scale battle. This victory was completely made with ammunition, of course, he did not know that later Soviet Russia did the same, bulldozing almost a million Kwantung Army in a matter of days with steel and explosives.
