Chapter 1211 Joint Telegram
Three divisions had more than 30,000 people. In order to save Ren'anqiang Ying's army, they faced more than 20,000 people in a complete division. There were still a steady stream of reinforcements on the railway line. No one of the elite Central Army in the anti-Japanese domestic battlefield dared to do this.
In normal circumstances, at least three armies are required to deal with a division of the Japanese army.
If such a comparison of troops occurs, it will be necessary to block the Japanese pursuers.
Hu Lian and Sun Liren are two bold guys, plus a newborn calf, Liu Yuantang, who is not afraid of death.
The three divisions attacked a full division, and two regiments of the 18th Division were about to arrive on the railway.
As reports on the situation on Ren'anqiang front continued to gather at the command center, Luo Zhuoying and Zhang Zhen wanted to fly to Ren'anqiang themselves.
Deng Xihou, Zhou Xiaoshan looked like he didn't feel sorry for his son, but even Liu Wenhui didn't seem to care about the life and death of his nephew Liu Yuantang.
He also pulled Stilwell and ran to fish.
The two of them were so angry that they called Du Yuming, whom they didn't like, to Lashio Airport, the headquarters of the Expeditionary Force.
"The Battle of Guoguang and Ren'anqiang does not meet the proportion of our daily battles against the Japanese army. Usually, we need at least five to ten times the strength of the Japanese division. You just believe that Zhou Xiaoshan has seven divisions into the Burmese Sichuan Army. It doesn't matter if they kill one, I will have to pay two divisions!"
He Guoguang glanced at Kang Ze, then looked at Du Yuming.
Like Luo Zhuoying, they wanted to get the answer from themselves with eager eyes.
"I believe in Zhou Xiaoshan and Hu Lian!"
"Guoguang, be cautious. The Military Commission has exhausted its national strength when it dispatched such an expeditionary force. When the Commission agreed to Hu Lian's order, there was no information about the 18th Division's arrival in Ren'anqiang. We always thought that the British and Japanese were fighting very lively, and it was a great place to go up, just like the Nanyang Self-Defense Forces punched the Japanese in the waist and eyes during the Battle of Gugu!"
Where are there so many waist-eyes?
Not to mention that He Guoguang was smiling, even Du Yuming shook his head and asked Director He in a low voice.
"Director He, you are very familiar with the Yongzhou Sichuan Army. With the newly formed 26th Division as the standard, how powerful is Hu Lian's unit and Liu Yuantang's unit than them!"
After Liao Yaoxiang compiled the 26th Division's new regulations, Du Yuming has been paying close attention.
I learned in detail about all the training process, schedule, tactical methods, and even equipment details since the division was compiled.
Very shocking.
Especially as the sharp knife of the attack, they cooperated with their own m2 heavy machine guns and Italian mortars to fully exert their precise firepower. The other two divisions of the Fifth Army were not a single star.
"The equipment of these three divisions is exactly the same. The Liu Yuantang Division trained in Yongzhou for less than a year, which is shorter. However, 70% of Liu Yuantang's troops are veterans of civil war and have practical experience in the melee of Sichuan warlords and conquering the Communist Party!"
Luo Zhuoying didn't agree with He Guoguang's introduction.
"Nothing is any experience. I heard that in the battle of Luding Bridge, it was fought by Liu Yuantang's troops. Zhu Mao, who was at the end of the road, could not stop it. If he had just changed to a central military advisor to guard the Iron Cable Bridge in Luding, there would be no current 18th Army! According to me, such an army should have been abolished long ago."
"That doesn't mean the problem. Sichuan warlords have been fighting for many years, and the people are living in poverty. From the people to the soldiers, they are very disgusted with the civil war, and even affected Deng Xihou, Liu Wenhui, and Liu Xiang and Feng Tiankui, who died in the country, all felt that the civil war was not glorious! When they surrendered the Communist Party, they started to work but not work hard, and the soldiers fired guns in the sky. Zhaomin and I had a hard time in Sichuan, and we took Tian Songyao and abolished some of the Sichuan Army. Now many generals of the Sichuan Army hold a grudge against me!"
Luo Zhuoying waved his hand.
"Guoguang, the commission sent you and me to Myanmar to entrusted important tasks. This battle of Ren'anqiang is related to the situation in Myanmar and the face of the party, state and leaders internationally. I was unsure. I suggested that Hu Lian telegrams and suspend the attack. Then we jointly signed a telegram and asked the Military Commission to order the three most elite divisions of the Sichuan Army, 144.145.168, to Ren'anqiang for reinforcements!"
Kang Ze sneered. Luo Zhuoying and Zhou Xiaoshan had never dealt with each other, so he thought too naively.
The Sichuan Army had a first say, and had an agreement with the British and Americans.
According to Deng Xihou and Zhou Xiaoshan's character, relying on this agreement and ignoring the orders of the Military Commission can make everyone lose face.
"Commander Luo, it's useless, unless you can convince Zhou Xiaoshan and Deng Xihou to change your mind!"
"We can give Hu Lian an order!"
He Guoguang waved his hand.
"It's not suitable. I guess Hu Lian is already preparing to go to war with the Japanese army. Maybe the Japanese will notice his existence. The front line either you die or I die. Once our telegram is sent, Hu Lian will hate us for the rest of his life!"
"The 33rd Division of the Japanese Army, who is the government and finances, is not mediocre. He has fought Nankou and Xinkou, and has brought a group of desperate Xiantai soldiers under his command! Zhou Xiaoshan is so reckless and sent out Sun Liren to do so, which is very irresponsible."
Du Yuming admired the Sichuan Army’s intelligence network very much.
Whether it is the 18th Division of the Japanese, the 33rd Division of the Japanese, the division commander and chief of staff, they have a clear resume.
The weapons carried are also clear.
It is precisely because these factors are clearly placed in the command center.
This shook Luo Zhuoying's confidence.
"Commander Luo, don't worry, let Guoguang go and find Deng Xihou, Zhou Xiaoshan, Alexander and the others!"
Kang Ze also realized that Zhou Xiaoshan and the others ran out early in the morning, and they probably didn't want to stay at the command center to explain to them.
But Luo Zhuoying was unwilling to wait for a moment.
"Guoguang, I have decided that if you want, we will jointly send a telegram to the commission. If you don't want to, I will send a telegram by myself! They are too risky!"
"Commander Luo, I still choose to believe in Zhou Xiaoshan and Hu Lian! Judging from their study at Lu University and training in Yongzhou, these two people seem young and impulsive, but they are actually more conservative and rational than anyone else. If they can't believe it, I don't know who to believe it!"
He Guoguang was really annoyed this time. Compared with Chen Cheng, Xue Yue and Luo Zhuoying, as the commander of the expeditionary force, even if it was temporary, it was not calm enough.
This battle involves rescuing the British army and the reporters' corps.
Has a significant international influence.
The commissioner finally made a firm decision to fight, and the original one was only sent to the 38th Division, which changed to three divisions to march together to Ren'anqiang.
The battle has not started yet.
The orders changed every day again, even he, the half-baked chief of staff, felt that it was inappropriate.
"What did Zhaomin say? What did Guangting say?"
"Commander Luo, don't be so anxious. I suggest Hu Lian fight first. The 6th Army has two divisions in Mandalay. You can join the battle if necessary. Besides, Commander Du's 5th Army is not very far from Ren'anqiang!"
Du Yuming didn't say anything, Zhang Zhen spoke first.
In the Battle of Southern Shandong, the invincible Fu Shichuan Army and the planner of this battle left a deep impression on him.
He didn't believe in Deng Xihou, so Zhou Xiaoshan casually sent three troops to die.
He also heard of Hu Lian. He was a very dazzling new star in the Party and the country, not an impetuous general who was so proud.
"There are two Japanese divisions opposite the 5th Army, and the 17th Japanese divisions of Yangon and the 17th Japanese division. We rashly attacked Ren'anqiang. Could the railway artery be handed over to the Sichuan army?"
"What's wrong with handing it over to the Sichuan Army?"
Zhang Zhen trusted Deng Xihou and Zhou Xiaoshan. The Sichuan Army was at least much stronger than the Central Army's release of one division.
Kang Ze also waved his hand.
"I agree with Commander Zhang's opinion. Let's fight this battle first. I believe that the war is not going well. Deng Xihou, Zhou Xiaoshan, and Liu Wenhui will definitely make adjustments!"
Luo Zhuoying looked at Du Yuming at the same time, and Du Yuming frowned and did not speak.
He stood up angrily and went to send a telegram to Chongqing.
