Chapter 685: Battle of Wonsan II

readx; "The battle on the Wonshan side is still good, the cooperation between the First Army and the Second Army is relatively good, and the support of the Air Force is also timely!" In the presidential palace in Nanjing, Shen Gang once again reported to Chen Jingyun about the Korean war. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"In this way, there should be no surprise on the North Korean side!" Chen Jingyun raised his head after hearing this.

Shen Gang said: "That's true, although it is said that Busan in the south of Korea has not been taken, but the strength of the army in North Korea has been compressed to the two regions of Wonsan and Busan, of which Busan only has more than 20,000 remnants. Although the troops on the Yuanshan side are larger, the Yuanshan side lacks a perfect defense system and logistics supply, and the war is no longer able to be reversed. ”

"Now I should think about how to withdraw the 200,000 troops of Wonshan safely!" Ma Cheng next to him also spoke.

"However, looking at the current situation, it seems that there is no sign of a large-scale naval retreat in the Wonsan area!" Shen Gang said: "According to my opinion, I should still want to rely on Wonsan to hold on, and together with Busan, I will stick two nails in the south and the north of North Korea!" ”

Chen Jingyun listened and said, "Hmph, it's easy for them to think. ”

Although it is not so easy to say that Busan and Wonsan are to be taken, it is not so difficult to take Wonsan and Busan with absolute strategic superiority.

"Don't drag on the battle between Wonsan and Busan for too long, settle it as soon as possible!" After Chen Jingyun said this, he let Shen Gang and the others go out.

Judging from the current situation in the DPRK, China already has an absolute advantage, and what Chen Jingyun wants most now is to rely on this current advantage to end this war that is unexpected by China and China.

Although after 1923, Chen Jingyun knew that he would have to fight with Ben again, but in these years, Chen Jingyun predicted in his heart that this Sino-Japanese war should be after 1935, and it should be when Europe broke out a world war around 1940, when he would be able to use the power he had accumulated for more than 20 years to completely defeat Yueben in one fell swoop, thus establishing China's hegemony in Asia.

However, people's plans can never keep up with the changes in facts, even if Chen Jingyun has memories from later generations, but the world situation in this time and space is completely different from the world situation in the time and space he is familiar with, in fact, Chen Jingyun has been unable to rely on the memories of later generations to formulate the overall strategy of the country since World War I.

The rise of China during the First World War made the world change too much, and after the Russian Revolution it was divided into two countries, and the war between Ben and China broke out in 1923 and failed, and these were hairpins that affected the entire world situation, so that Chen Jingyun could not rely on the memories of later generations to find an optimal strategy for the country and the nation.

Since World War I, Chen Jingyun's formulation of national strategy has actually had nothing to do with the memory of later generations, but relied on the development of the current world situation and the research of many domestic research institutions.

For example, the Department of Economic Development is a think tank, which not only provides Chen Jingyun with advice and methods for domestic economic development, but also enables Chen Jingyun to better formulate a series of national strategies through the study of the world economy, which are not only industrial development, but also diplomacy and war.

For example, the research report given by the Department of Economic Development now makes Chen Jingyun frown. According to the report of the Economic Development Department, the overall economic development in 1931 was higher than that of last year, and the most representative surname was that the central fiscal revenue budget exceeded 4 billion yuan for the first time, but the year-on-year growth rate was greatly reduced. China's economic growth rate in 1931 is expected to be only about 10 percent, which is an ideal figure for other countries or other times, but it is far from enough for China in 1931. Because most of the growth in this part is brought about by the defense industry and infrastructure industry, the light industry and agriculture, which are vital to the national economy and people's lives, have not grown, which means that the domestic light industry and agriculture have not been able to get rid of the impact of the world economic crisis. This has caused concern among a large group of economists within the Division of Economic Development.

In a unified and stable China, the growth of central government revenue can largely represent the development of the country's economy, after all, only when the economy develops can the country receive more tax revenue.

Before 1929, China's fiscal revenue growth rate has been maintained at about 10 to 15 percent, the growth rate can be said to be extremely high, but after the outbreak of the economic crisis in 1929, fiscal revenue almost stopped growing, in 1928 China's fiscal revenue has reached 3.7 billion after years of rapid growth, but after the outbreak of the economic crisis in 1929, the 4 billion yuan that was expected to break through has not been reached, but has declined, only 3.6 billion. After Chen Jingyun's comeback in 1930, he stimulated economic recovery through a series of policies, and finally stopped the decline and resumed slow growth, reaching 3.8 billion yuan.

At the end of 1930, due to the outbreak of the Sino-Chinese War again, huge military orders directly stimulated the development of domestic steel, chemical and other basic industries. In addition to this, a series of infrastructure investments led by Chen Jingyun also began to enter, which led to the large-scale development of domestic and military-related industries such as iron and steel, chemical and other industries, thereby stimulating the development of the economy, and after the slow recovery of the economy, the fiscal revenue budget in 1931 reached 4 billion, and this data should have been the goal of 1929.

What is even more crucial is that although news of victory has been constantly coming from this Sino-Chinese war, it has required a huge amount of military expenditure almost every day, and the huge military expenditure has seriously crowded out other state expenditures, making it difficult to obtain sufficient funds for the economic recovery policy formulated at the beginning of last year, and it has also caused a huge deficit in the political axe, and it has to issue a large number of state bonds to maintain the normal operation of finances.

The core content of the report of the Economic Development Department is very simple, that is, the current economic capacity of China is limited, and it is impossible to either continue the war with Ben or stop the war and then spend money on domestic construction, and it is impossible to build the national economy while fighting a war.

Naturally, the group of people in the Department of Economic Development would not explicitly advise Chen Jingyun to end the war immediately, after all, this war has risen to the point of national survival in domestic propaganda, although it is not. To put it bluntly, the victory or defeat of the Korean War could not shake the foundation of China and the two countries, and if China was defeated, it would be a big deal to temporarily retreat to the Yalu River, and it would be said that "if it is defeated, it is a big deal to rely on the navy to retreat to the mainland." The greatest role of the DPRK lies not in its economic or industrial resources, but in its military status, and for the DPRK, the DPRK is the bridgehead for the invasion of the mainland, and only with the DPRK can it continue to march into China, and for China, the occupation of the DPRK can cut off the determination of the DPRK to march into the mainland and encircle the strategic security of the vast Northeast and even North China.

Now in this war, the Chinese army has already occupied the upper hand in Korea, and at this time, people are imagining how to pack up the 200,000 troops in Korea and then land on the mainland.

In such an atmosphere of victory, anyone who says that it is difficult to maintain the country at present will definitely be blamed by others.

The person from the Department of Economic Development did not say it explicitly, but it used a series of data to explain this fact to Chen Jingyun. That is, if this war is extended for more than half a year or even longer, it will have a great negative impact on the development of the domestic industrial economy.

Looking at the red and blue lines in the Wonsan and Busan areas on the Korean battlefield, Chen Jingyun said to himself: "It's time to think about how to end this war!" ”

When Chen Jingyun was thinking about how to end this war, hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops in the Yuanshan area launched an attack on the Yue army like a tide, and the Yue army, which was at a disadvantage in strength, was already in great difficulty, but the supply was also extremely insufficient, and the supplies obtained from the port of Yuanshan could not meet the needs of the more than 200,000 troops at all.

In addition to the divisional firepower, the artillery firepower of this army also has a considerable number of reading artillery units, and only these reading artillery units have large-caliber artillery, and most of these reading artillery units were transferred to the First Army in the early stage, and the destruction of the First Army not only buried a large number of infantry units, but also caused the troops stationed in Korea to lose most of the heavy artillery. As for the later Pyongyang operation, the Third Army did not have enough large-caliber artillery to confront the Chinese large-caliber artillery. After retreating from Pyongyang, after trekking all the way to the Wonsan area, there were even fewer large-caliber artillery pieces left in the Third Army.

Only a part of the division's artillery remained, and the defenders of Benyuanshan were facing a joint attack by the Chinese army and air forces, and it was very difficult to resist.

Kanaya had already sent several telegrams to the domestic base camp in a row, asking for reinforcements, and said that the supply of artillery shells and other ammunition would continue.

On February 26, 1931, after the Spring Festival in 1931, in the face of a new round of onslaught by the Chinese First Army and the Second Army, the Yuanshan area had been compressed to an area of less than 20 kilometers, and the number of troops in the encirclement was less than 200,000.

He said, "At this time, the base camp in China also knew that it was no longer time to hesitate to retreat, but to think about how to retreat."

He said, "The troops in the Wonsan area were about to retreat, and the navy quickly took action, and the civilian ships in the country were also requisitioned one by one, whether they were passenger ships or ships, whether they were large ships of several thousand tons or small ships of several hundred tons, as long as they could sail to the port of Wonsan, they were all requisitioned by the navy."

For a time, there were many transport ships flying the flag of the country on several routes from Wonsan to the mainland.
