Chapter 683 Commander Xue Meeting (Chapter 1 is here today)
Just then, the new commander of the Japanese 11th Army, Anami Yuki, and the division commander of the 6th Division, Inaba Shiro, the division commander of the 33rd Division, Amakasu Shutaro, the division commander of the 106th Division, Nakai Ryotaro,
13th Division
Akira Nara of the 26th Brigade of the Regiment, Mikio Uemura of the 5th Brigade of the 3rd Division, Michio Sugawara of the 3rd Flying Regiment, Wan Takama, the commander of the 13th Navy Gunboat Team, and others entered the relatively silent room.
While in chat mode,
In Changsha City.
Commander Xue, Commander-in-Chief of the Ninth War Zone,
Deputy Commander-in-Chief Luo Zhuoying, Yang Sen, Wang Lingji.
A group of them were also discussing matters at the headquarters in the city.
"According to the situation on our front line, the Japanese 11th Army is gathering a large number of troops and seems to be attacking us. So you can see how our front line deployment needs to be strengthened to make it safer!"
"The commander of the attacking Japanese troops this time is Anan Weiki. I heard that he is a rather cruel person!"
"And the Japanese troops that attacked this time are also quite large, no less than the troops in the Wuhan Battle!"
When he saw his senior officers gathered together, Commander Xue, the commander of the ninth theater area, also immediately spoke.
"Well! The front line does need to strengthen its defense. This time in the Battle of Changsha, we can no longer lose to these Japanese troops, because there is not much land behind us. If we continue to lose, the consequences will be disastrous!
"
"It is also not good for our morale, so we must win this battle in Changsha and cannot fail!"
Regarding the words of Commander Xue, the commander of the ninth theater, Deputy Commander Luo Zhuoying was the first to respond firmly.
"Yes! That's right, we have the same opinion, Commander!"
When Deputy Commander Luo Zhuoying finished speaking, Yang Sen, Wang Lingji also responded in unison.
For them, they must defeat the Japanese troops, because in fact, this time, they really have no way to continue to retreat. If they retreat further, they will really lose all the land.
.
Although there is still the Chongqing side of the Chairman's relocation rear area, once Changsha is lost, the last national gate will probably be the Chongqing side.
Although the area on the side of Commander Bai's hometown has not yet fallen, the Japanese will definitely attack that area together, so the final national gate will definitely not be available for the Japanese troops to attack.
Therefore, in order to save the morale and hope of the national army, they must win this battle in Changsha.
"Well! You all agreed to strengthen the defense capabilities of the front line, so let's discuss together now how to strengthen the defense operations of the front line!"
When Commander Xue, the commander of the ninth theater, saw that all senior officers unanimously agreed to his proposal to strengthen frontline defensive operations, he quickly nodded and agreed.
"Okay! Let me start by saying that I plan to destroy all roads that can be used by the Japanese army, destroy or demolish all these railways and roads, and blow them up. Our purpose is to make the Japanese mechanized troops and
Their heavy artillery units cannot move quickly to plan the Japanese mechanized combat operations, and we also need to lure the enemy deep into the area near Changsha, and then we can encircle and annihilate them!"
"So the first thing we have to do now is to find ways to interrupt the march and offensive deployment of the Japanese mechanized troops. Of course, the marching route of the Japanese heavy artillery troops as I just said must also be destroyed!
"
"So take a look and see what my opinion is..."
When the ninth theater commander, Commander Xue, began to discuss the combat deployment, the deputy commander, Luo Zhuoying, responded again.
He expressed his inner thoughts.
"Your opinion is okay, I approve it!"
After hearing this, Commander Xue, the commander-in-chief of the Ninth War Zone, fell silent and at the same time turned his attention to Yang Sen and Wang Lingji.
He was inquiring about the true thoughts of these two senior officers and whether they had also agreed to the proposal of Deputy Commander Luo Zhuoying.
When they saw the inquiring eyes of Commander Xue, the commander of the ninth theater, staring at the two of them, they also nodded slightly to show that they also agreed with the proposal of deputy commander Luo Zhuoying.
"Everyone actually proposed destroying the Japanese marching railways and roads. Then I will leave this matter to your 19th Army.
"Of course, if there are not enough troops, then the 27th Group Army and the 30th Group Army will also need to deploy some troops to assist in destroying all the enemy's attacks!"
"For this battle, I will also ask the commission to dispatch some flying troops to support our battle!"
"So we can only win this battle, and we are not allowed to fail!"
When all the senior generals unanimously agreed that Deputy Commander Luo Zhuoying would paralyze all Japanese railways and roads, Commander Xue, Commander of the Ninth Theater Command, immediately responded with satisfaction.
"That's for sure, but it's a pity that we don't have much inventory of German weapons and equipment anymore. Therefore, the German weapon divisions we formed for this battle cannot be carried out in large quantities because Liu Feiyang left behind
The arsenals that came down were all destroyed by Japanese air raids and bombings, and now it is impossible to develop and produce weapons and equipment at all!"
"As for the production line data and samples that the foreigners obtained from us, they never came back. They did not actually provide us with weapons, equipment and enough ammunition to fight against the Japanese army!"
"So we need to deal with this matter as soon as possible, because we still have many troops with insufficient weapons, equipment and ammunition!"
"This situation is similar to the situation in previous battles. There is a lack of weapons, equipment and ammunition to kill the Japanese on the battlefield! So if this problem cannot be solved, I am afraid that many brothers will be killed or injured in our Changsha battle this time.
Stay!"
After the ninth theater commander, Commander Xue, made his decision, the deputy commander, Luo Zhuoying, continued to raise new questions.
"Well! I have already reported this issue to the committee member. He will find a way to provide us with a large number of Chinese and formal rifles and ammunition. But it is a pity that there are not many artillery, because those foreigners got Liu Feiyang to stay.
After receiving the information about the weapons and equipment from the arsenal, he went back on his word, so the committee is also very angry about this matter!"
"He is negotiating with those foreigners about the support of weapons, equipment and ammunition, so it will take time to get some artillery to come to our troops!"
"Of course, there are still some mortars and general artillery in the arsenal in the rear area, and they can be put into use in this battle. But if we want to have a large number of mortars like Liu Feiyang's command or the Japanese heavy artillery force,
caliber artillery, or a new type of artillery to be put into combat, then don’t think too much about it, because there won’t be any!”
When Deputy Commander-in-Chief Luo Zhuoying mentioned Liu Feiyang's arsenal, Commander Xue, Commander-in-Chief of the Ninth Theater Command, also had mixed emotions. He shook his head and responded with a bitter look on his face.
Commander Xue, the commander-in-chief of the Ninth War Zone, strongly disagreed with the chairman's approach.
Because after all, Liu Feiyang once gave away a lot of free weapons, equipment, and ammunition to his troops to kill the Japanese.
Although these weapons, equipment and ammunition were used half-way through the battle in Wuhan, he was still very grateful to Liu Feiyang.
So when he saw that Liu Feiyang was gone, the Chairman also acquiesced to Boss Dai and the others and took over the entire arsenal Liu Feiyang left in Changsha City. He didn't like this kind of thing very much.
Chapter completed!
