Chapter 1504: Keep it for another 10 days!(2/2)
, "fiercely attack their respective predetermined targets", and then the day after Fang Xianjue sent a message to tactfully inquire about reinforcements, he sent a message to the Hengyang defenders to hold on for another 10 days.
Fang Xianjue gritted his teeth and admitted that he would only hold on for another 10 days, as long as reinforcements could come.
Seeing that the matter has come to this, the other generals in the headquarters can only cheer themselves up. After all, they have carried it on the 15th, so what is the big deal if they can carry him for another 10 days?
Perhaps only Tang Dao, who was silent, was sighing slightly, 10 days? Three more 10 days, I am afraid the reinforcements will not reach this city.
For example, this time the man finally made up his mind to mobilize 8 infantry corps and planned to start a decisive battle with the Japanese army outside Hengyang. The 3 corps commanded by Li Yutang moved, but the 5 infantry corps of Commander Xue stayed put.
Commander Xue has always been an extremely confident and even arrogant person. In the Military Commission, he is the only one who can still listen to the words of General Chen, the leader of the civil engineering department. One is the supreme commander and has to listen, and the other is his
Political backers cannot but listen.
But this time he did not obey, because deep down in his heart, he felt that the two military talents were mediocre and far inferior to him. He believed that the strategic purpose of the Japanese army was to open up the Guangdong-Han Railway, and Hengyang was only the Guangdong-Han Railway
Whether he loses or not does not guarantee the complete smooth flow of the Guangdong-Hankou Railway is an important node on the railway. As long as he locks another node, the Japanese army will have to point its troops at it, and the siege of Hengyang can be solved far faster than he can mobilize.
It is much more reliable for the army to march long distances to the outside of Hengyang for a decisive battle.
Therefore, Commander Xue insisted on keeping the five armies east of the Guangdong-Hankong Railway, relying on the rugged mountainous areas on the Hunan-Kiangxi border to deal with the Japanese army.
After staring at the map for an hour or two, the person felt that this seemed like a good idea.
The 27th Group Army, which had already launched its troops to kill a Japanese division 80 miles outside Hengyang, almost retreated collectively after receiving the news that the friendly forces had not moved.
The main force of more than 100,000 people was not moving. Are these 60,000 people running to die? The 27th Army had to brake suddenly.
With this kind of cunning operation, Hengyang’s more than 70,000 soldiers and civilians, do you think they can wait for the legendary reinforcements?
In Li Jijin's original words: "Waiting for nothing, it is better to ask for others than to ask for yourself. I will stay here. If two of them are not enough for one, then try for three. As long as the Japanese dare to exchange sincerely, then all of them will be replaced."
What a turtle!"
This man! Only when he falls into the final desperate situation will he burst out with more powerful power.
But obviously, Hengyang at this time still had expectations for some people.
Therefore, the Japanese army at this time had not yet realized that they had not yet encountered the Chinese soldiers in their most crazy stage.
