Chapter 194 Convincing each other
This is not a formal military conference.
The 43rd Army headquarters that serves as the simple houses are only Tang Dao and the 43rd Army Lieutenant General.
This was less than half an hour after Tang Dao arrived at the 26th Division of the 43rd Army. The Lieutenant General, who had held a military meeting, asked to talk to Tang Dao alone.
Without any extra greetings, the lieutenant general, who was already a little decisive, almost went straight to the point as soon as he came up. After briefly describing the current situation, he let all the four camps, which had just been solemnly welcomed, leave.
"No, our four camps are determined to go to Songjiang with your commander." Tang Dao faced the lieutenant general's tragic look and shook his head and refused.
"Why are you doing this? My 43rd Army received the order to defend Songjiang to the death. You four camps do not have it. There is no need to die in vain." Lieutenant General Guo sighed.
"Oh! The battle of Songhu has been completely lost. No matter how hard you and I don't care about our lives, we can't change the ending."
This is Tang Dao. Although he has now transformed himself into a lieutenant colonel battalion commander of the Fourth Battalion directly under the war zone, he has also left the 26th Division after all, and this lieutenant general of the army has told such a truth.
This is actually his complaint to the person sitting in the highest position. It is not a franchise operation that he said today that he would retreat tomorrow and fool the entire army into fighting again. How could hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers fall into the situation where they are scrambling to escape now?
It was funny to let him 700 people stay for three days and nights! I thought Songjiang was a Sihang Warehouse? The Japanese could not use small cannons, and they dared not use heavy cannons. Of course, they could fight against the enemy for a few days with few days.
But Songjiang is just a small city, and tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers rushed up and drowned 700 of them. OK!
In this person's heart, even if there is a Songjiang security team, it would be a miracle that they could defend for a long time with two or three thousand people. The army's great retreat is right in front of them.
Of course, Tang Dao also knew very well that Lieutenant General Guo was willing to tell the truth in order to persuade Tang Dao not to go.
The entire 26th Division was trapped by military orders and had to go to Songjiang, a dead land. He did not want Tang Dao to die. He was willing to cherish his talents, but in fact he was more entrusted.
The soldiers of the 26th Division were basically recruited from several counties around Tangdao's hometown. Most of the relatives and friends came to join the army together. Who is not afraid of death on the battlefield? But when they saw that their cousin smiled at him in the morning, they turned into cold corpses at noon. Who can't have their eyes red?
Sichuan people are both loyal and face-oriented, and they attach great importance to nepotism, otherwise they would not have had so many forces.
I tried my best to avoid my life. I only fought in Songhu for one battle, and then I fought from more than 8,000 people to 700 people. Brother Pao Ge never got diarrhea and showed off his reputation, but his life was almost lost.
In this way, more than 700 people were carrying more than 200 seriously injured people who could be rescued and left the battlefield and took them wherever they went.
At dawn, Liu Gongdu and Lao Wang returned with Tang Dao and the Sixing Camp. Lieutenant General Guo, who was the commander, personally welcomed Lieutenant General Guo, who was in charge of the two mountain cannons and a truck of canned meat supplies that Tang Dao promised to provide to the 26th Division, was more like a large amount of medicines given by Tang Dao.
That is what the 26th Division most urgently needs. Without those medicines, one-third of the seriously injured people will be a miracle.
But a military order came, and the only 700 people in the 26th Division of the 43rd Army had to rush to Songjiang City, which was about to block the path that the Japanese army must pass.
They will die if they die, and they will live up to the name of the Sichuan Army, but what should we do if these more than 200 seriously injured people?
Relying on others? Even Tang Dao, who was the lieutenant general of the army, was thrown away, was the meritorious minister whom he said hello in person. Who else can Lieutenant General Guo dare to rely on?
The 700 people intact are not allowed to survive, but the number of the 43rd Army cannot be lost. These more than 200 seriously injured people are the seeds of the 43rd Army starting the stove in the future.
After thinking about it, Lieutenant General Guo could only put his hope on Tang Dao, hoping that he would take away the more than 200 seriously injured people for the sake of his own lineage of Sichuan Army.
In the past, there was no Tang Dao or Sixing Camp. Lieutenant General Guo, who was not pedantic, had enough thoughts and divided more than half of more than 700 people to retreat with the seriously injured. He brought more than 100 people to Songjiang. He neither violated military orders nor planned to serve the country on his own, but also left the seeds of recovery for the 43rd Army.
Then I knew that Tang Dao had broken his brain as if he had been in a war. Even though he knew that he was dead, he would have to break up with him. How could he not let Commander Guo be so depressed that he just sued him? He almost pointed at Tang Dao with his finger and cursed: Is your melon baby crazy?
"Sir, Songjiang may not be dead." Tang Dao suddenly said in shock. "We may not win this battle, but it is still okay to stay for three days and three nights."
This is not the unfounded brag of Tang Dao. In time and space, although the Songjiang defenders suffered heavy casualties, they did block the 10th Japanese Army in the small city of Songjiang for three days and three nights. If this were not the case, hundreds of thousands of troops would not have to wait for the Battle of Jinling, and this battle would be exhausted.
"Battleman Commander Tang, I also know that you have experienced the battle of Sixing with hundreds to block thousands, but you know, Songjiang is not Sixing Warehouse." Seeing that Tang Dao was not in the oil and salt, he was a little bit of a self-controlled military achievements and began to brag, Lieutenant General Guo couldn't help but feel a little angry.
"Sir, I said that guarding for three days and three nights is not an imagination, but three reasons." Tang Dao was not afraid of the anger of a lieutenant general and stretched out three fingers.
"Okay, I'll convince me for five minutes, otherwise I'll take your people to get out of here. If you want to take the 200 wounded people, I'll send someone to see them off by myself." Lieutenant General Guo raised his eyebrows and his tone became even heavier.
Since he received the military order, he and the two lieutenant generals of the 26th Division and a group of major generals under him scratched his head, but he didn't think of a reason to hold on for three days and nights, but Tang Dao was so sad that he opened his mouth, there were three.
Could it be that they are all idiots?
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Several generals are strong men who have worked from the platoon leader to the general for decades. They are all talented people who choose from in a million in terms of ability. Naturally, it is impossible to be stupid. But they are in the game, so they are naturally not as good as the little butterfly who has studied this game countless times in the future.
"One, although the Japanese army landed on the Jinshan Guards came in full force, they would inevitably be blocked by frontline soldiers on the Jinshan Guards' mudflat position. It was just their imagination to land all on the shore in a short period of time. This has bought at least half a day for our army.
2. The tidal flat positions are difficult for pedestrians, let alone all kinds of heavy equipment. Even if the Japanese army can get ashore, they must focus on light equipment. If they want to be quick, they will have to come from Jinshan Guard to Songjiang, fifty kilometers away, so they have to come lightly. In the early stages of the battle, the Japanese army, which did not have heavy artillery support, was not that scary." Tang Dao took back his second finger.
This is also not a nonsense. The 114th Division and the 6th Division of the 10th Army of the Japanese Army, which once hit Songjiang in time and space, were like this. The Japanese army, who had no heavy artillery above 150 caliber, had only 75 caliber mountain artillery at most, hit a bag in Songjiang City, and could only watch hundreds of thousands of elite Chinese soldiers in Shanghai and west run away.
"What about the third one!" The Army Lieutenant General's eyes were already a little lit up, and he couldn't wait to ask.
"Three, it is not only my 26th Division and Songjiang Security Corps who were ordered to station in Songjiang. Although the one who lacks the ability to command large-scale battles, he still has vision. Songjiang is a key place that is related to the life and death of hundreds of thousands of troops. He will definitely have arrangements. My 26th Division may be just a bonus for him to appease another general." Tang Dao smiled slightly.
"Good guy, no wonder he can become the famous battalion commander of the Sixing Battalion. He is indeed a little capable." Although the lieutenant general of the army, who was in the game without knowing the situation, was a little embarrassed, his face finally showed joy.
The commander had been thinking about the Japanese invaders' power, but he ignored that since he wanted to defend the important land, he would never send him such a mere 700 people, even if his 43rd Army's 26th Division made impressive achievements in Dachang Town.
Because, the one that really touched the Battle of Songjiang was another powerful army.
67th Army, Northeast Army!
