Chapter 713: A game of chess in western Luxi and eastern Yudong
"This lunatic Luo is still thinking about me, but he actually sent reinforcements to me." Leng Feng smiled happily after receiving a telegram from Luo Yufeng.
"Master, what's the good thing? Are you so happy?"
"Luo Yufeng sent us a reinforcement. Not many, just one regiment."
"A group, how enough is this?"
"I'm busy having a big meal now, and it's good to remember us. Besides, the ones sent here this time are all elite soldiers. The reconnaissance battalion directly under the brigade headquarters took the lead and the elite troops drawn from the regiment battalion were formed. The number of people was not large, only about two thousand people. How do you use it for the old regiment commander?" Leng Feng asked with a smile.
"It won't be of much use to come directly to our side. If their little force is added in, they will not be able to bite the big bone of Tu Feiyuan for a while." Xie Chengrui said.
"Shan County!"
"Haha, the old regiment commander, it's really a hero who sees it. I have been thinking about what we have overlooked. It's this Dan County. If the partial army under Tuofeiyuan gave up Guide and refused to go, and went south to Dangshan, they could go north to Dangshan and go north to Dangshan. Dangshan is now stationed in the 27th Army. It is necessary to ensure the safety of the railway and use the troops evenly. This is the stupidest way. From Caozhou to Dangshan, Dan County is a must-pass place, so we will be stuck in his throat!" Leng Feng smiled.
"Then let them go directly to Dan County to see if they can block the Japanese army's partial division. If they are lucky?" Xie Chengrui also smiled slightly.
"Who leads the team this time?"
"It's still Deputy Brigade Commander Niu Xianmin. The last time he went north to raid Quanjiao was also his team." Long Yingqin said.
Xie Chengrui's eyes moved slightly. Niu Xianmin was his best friend. During the Nanjing Defense Battle, he had entrusted his only sister to him. Although in the war situation, Xie Chengrui committed suicide by killing the battlefield and reimbursing the country. It was not considered a entrusted entrusted on the death to the death, and it was indeed a kind of parting trust.
Now he has been dead from Nanjing and has come back to life. After dying for a while, he knows the meaning of life, but his beliefs remain unchanged. If they really have that fate, it would be a good story.
The meeting at Jiang Mansion in Luojiashan was held late at night, and basically unified the mind. The battle in Xuzhou has reached its peak, and the basic purpose has been achieved, and even an unimaginable victory has been achieved.
China and Japan are already strong and weak, so it is impossible to win quickly. If they barely fight to the decisive battle, it will hit Japan's thoughts. The current goal of the Japanese army is to conquer China by force.
This goal has become clearer and clearer. It has been seen from the statement of Japan's policy toward China that they clearly no longer regard the Wuhan National Government as an opponent, and even believe that it is just a local regime that is in a stable area.
The ambition to annex China by force is already obvious.
The next step is to withdraw nearly 500,000 elite GJs from Xuzhou to Hubei, Hunan and other rear areas to rest and replenish them in preparation for another battle. The specific policy of retreat is to counter-encircle the enemy surrounded by the Japanese army in the north and south, alternately cover them, and effectively and heavily attack the enemy's vitality during the retreat.
After the meeting, Chiang Kai-shek personally sent a call to Li Delin and ordered him to quickly formulate a plan for retreat.
At the same time, the meeting also decided to solve the problems of western Shandong and eastern Henan in an integrated manner, and to consider the overall arrangement of western Shandong in the First War Zone, and the Western Shandong Corps is under the commander-in-chief of the First War Zone.
The Military Commission decided to establish the First Corps, with Xue Boling as commander-in-chief of the First Corps, under its jurisdiction, including the 71, 74, 27, 8th Army and other troops.
He Jingzhi and Chen Cixiu have a lot of debate about whether the subordinate of the Honorary First Division is also affiliated with the First Corps.
The purpose of establishing the First Corps is to solve the problem of the Dohihara Division and ensure the retreat of the GJ troops in the fifth war zone. The Honorary First Division is one of the most elite combat power in the fifth war zone, and is at the forefront of blocking the Dohihara Division. If it is not included, what is the significance of the establishment of the First Corps?
But the problem is that the one who is honored by the First Division is not a good man. If he wants to obey Xue Laohu's command, he may not be able to do it. This young and stubborn person is all good at making trouble. If these two people really fight, it will be a big deal.
The most taboo thing in the final battle is the discord between the generals and the generals. Although no one can guarantee whether they can cooperate well now, at least the personalities of these two people are hedging.
Chiang Kai-shek was hesitant, and there were reasons for this. He had this idea when the Tuohiro Division smuggled across the Yellow River. After meeting Li Delin, this idea became clearer and more urgent, so after coming back, he held this meeting overnight.
"It would be better to upgrade the Honorary First Division to an army. The Honorary First Division now has four infantry brigades under its jurisdiction, which are already at the level of the army!" Zhang Wenbai said.
"Leng Guoguang has just become the commander of the army. He is going to become the commander of the army. Isn't it too fast?"
"Since ancient times, heroes have been young. Isn't it a blessing for the country or the nation to have such young talents?"
“Too young!”
"el, what do you think?"
"If we look at the scale of the troops, a division is a bit small." Deputy Minister Zhou smiled slightly. How could he not know about Lao Jiang's temptation?
"Then let's get promoted. The new 38th Brigade fought bloody battle for nine days and nights in the Taierzhuang battle. This time, he took the lead in conquering Yi County and rose to the next level together!" Old Jiang thought for a while and said slowly.
"Abide by Chairman Jun's Order!"
"How should the Chairman, the number of Honorary First Division and the New 38th Brigade be determined?" He Jingzhi asked.
"How about the New First Army and the New 38th Division?"
Lao Jiang nodded slightly. Originally, the country was not unified, and the number of troops was already chaotic. Some troops were killed and the number was cancelled directly. Some troops were expanded and others' number was robbed. This is not a rare thing. The number of troops now has the benefits of chaos. At least it can make the Japanese army confused about how many troops there are in GJ.
"Then has Leng Guoguang's military rank been upgraded to one level?"
"He has only been promoted to major general, so he will be promoted, too fast, right?" He Jingzhi opposed.
"Then he is the commander of the first army. Is the rank of major general a little lower?"
Within gj, the division commanders are generally major generals, some are lieutenant generals, and some are also generals (eligible for seniors). Lieutenant generals are basically standard for military commanders. Of course, some people are not actually lieutenant generals, but many people are actually lieutenant generals and wear the rank of lieutenant generals. As explained in the previous article, this is the rank.
Wear the rank of lieutenant general and the salary of lieutenant general, but in fact, the real rank is still a major general. If you don’t do it well, it may be lowered at any time.
Reducing military rank has always been something that Chiang Kai-shek wanted to do. If it weren’t for the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, many people would have to lower the formal ranks by one to two levels.
Leng Feng's real teaching is actually of great value, especially his age, who is only twenty-five years old, which is too young.
"Then let's get the title of Major General!"
"Yes, Chairman."
"Luo Yufeng also did this." Old Jiang suddenly said another sentence, and everyone showed a hint of surprise. This was obviously trying to be cold and there was a sign of separation between Luo and the others.
"There are at least two divisions under the New First Army. Issue the candidate for the first-level chief officer?"
"Leng Guoguang reported a promotion plan. Officers who need supplementary can be supplemented by military academies and other agencies." Lao Jiang ordered.
He Jingzhi and Chen Cixiu both understood it. This was a good opportunity to penetrate into the Honorary First Division. Chiang Kai-shek himself did not take the initiative, but gave them this good thing. No, he might not want to do this. This is to make them fight against Leng Guoguang.
"Committee, about the First Corps..."
"Boling is here tomorrow. I will talk to him again. I will listen to his opinions first." Lao Jiang said.
"yes!"
"It's like this today. It's getting late, it's all gone."
"Didi..."
"Director Wu..." Wu Xiaoyun was also closely monitoring the radio stations of Japanese spies in Wuhan, especially those near Hankou Security Command.
She has successively cracked several Japanese enemy radio stations. She has to work until twelve o'clock every night and get up early the next day. She can be said to be a workaholic.
“Is the news reliable?”
"Reliable, Yunfeng said to me in person." Ding Mengyu whispered. Since her relationship with Song Yunfeng was semi-published, she has become a secret contact between Song Yunfeng and Wu Xiaoyun.
Some things Song Yunfeng cannot tell Wu Xiaoyun directly, and will be conveyed through Ding Mengyu.
Wu Xiaoyun obviously knew this. Song Yunfeng, the director of the military medical department, had a very special identity in the Hankou Security Command. He was the first to follow Leng Feng and was also the most valued. He was a member of the Yasha team, but after he retreated from Nanjing to Hankou, his official position was promoted, but he was not so valued.
In fact, it is not the same thing. Song Yunfeng's current identity just makes it convenient for him to do some secret things, such as secretly contacting the Wuhan Eighth Route Army Office.
Song Yunfeng led another relative intelligence team of the "Silver Fox" intelligence agency of the Honorary First Division, codenamed: Emei Peak.
Ding Mengyu is now also in this intelligence team and serves as the contact person between him and Wu Xiaoyun.
"Let me tell me something." Wu Xiaoyun asked a telegrapher to get up and sat down by himself.
Leng Feng soon received a telegram from Wu Xiaoyun himself. Wu Xiaoyun's technique is not a secret in the Honor Division. Of course, unless she intentionally changes the technique, it is easy to distinguish.
Some special techniques may only be mastered by Leng Feng, but if used, it must be a very critical moment of life and death.
It was obviously not that point at this moment.
The content of the telegram made Leng Feng happy and worried. What was happy was that Chiang Kai-shek and the big men of the Military Commission were quite clear-headed. Although the battle situation in Xuzhou was beneficial to our army, it was actually in a dangerous situation.
At this time, you can’t think that you can fight the Japanese army one by one or two battles, preserve your strength, save your land and lose people, and lose people, and lose people, and lose people, and lose people, and lose people, and keep people, and lose people, and keep people, and leave people and land and all people and land.
What I worry about is that the Honorary First Division is not suitable for upgrading to the army at this time. Of course, it is not that he is unwilling to do so, but that the time is not suitable for this time.
If you want to upgrade, it is best to upgrade after the battle. Now, these personnel changes will inevitably involve some energy, which is definitely not what Leng Feng wants to see.
Although a resolution was formed, there is at least some time from the resolution to the order. Leng Feng estimated that it would be announced as soon as tomorrow.
There is no problem with the upgrade of the New 38th Brigade to a division. Then the personnel changes there are relatively simple, it is just a change of the title, but there is not much change. Moreover, the war on their side is almost over, so it is easy to handle.
It was difficult to do it here, so it was divided into two parts, how to organize it, and the staff of the two divisions' division headquarters. How to divide and arrange it, it was impossible to sort it out in just a few days.
When the enemy is facing, cause trouble for yourself first. What is Lao Jiang thinking?
Is it related to Xue Laohu's appointment as commander-in-chief of the First Corps?
