Chapter 537
Zhong Yi said nothing and returned to the headquarters in Wuchang that afternoon.
As soon as he returned to the Wuchang Command, Zhong Yi convened all the staff at home in the command, held an emergency military meeting to analyze and discuss the latest tactics of the Japanese.
Feng Yuxiang, Stilwell and Fujita, commander-in-chief of the Anti-War Allied Army, were also invited to attend the meeting.
When Fujita came in, he was a little reluctant. After all, this was his first time to attend a military meeting on the National Army, so he was inevitably insensitive.
But Fujita Jin knew very well that he could no longer go back!
Zhong Yi is really amazing. He really published the photos of their happy conversation in the newspaper. The Japanese side was indeed deceived and gave him the most severe punishment. Not only did he deprive him of all his reputation, but he also severed his military status. In the end, he was judged as a traitor and announced to the whole of Japan!
It is said that Hirohito also issued an order to eliminate traitors and was ready to eliminate him!
In a word, Fujita Jin and the current Japanese government have become mortal enemies!
If the current Japanese government cannot be overthrown and the emperor system is abolished, he, Fujita Jin, will never be able to restore his reputation and will never be able to return to Japan. This means that he can only follow Zhong Yi and go all the way to the dark!
Thinking of this, Fujita Jin's subtle resistance immediately disappeared.
After everyone was all together, Zhong Yi said to Zhang Shiliang: "Staff Officer Zhang, please explain the situation to everyone first."
"Yes!" Zhang Shiliang responded and said, "Since the second attack this morning, the Japanese have shown a new trend. Each attack does not put much force in each direction, about an infantry squadron, and the intensity of each attack is not high. They are withdrawn immediately after a little contact!"
After pausing, Zhang Shiliang said again: "All signs indicate that the Japanese are carrying out rotational battles! They are to pull the battlefield one by one to familiarize themselves with street fighting. After all the troops are familiar with the tactics of street fighting, they will launch a fierce attack on Hankou and even Hanyang city!"
Hearing this, all the staff members at the meeting changed their faces.
Stilwell and Fujita Jinuo translated them for them, and after listening to the translation, he looked solemn.
Li Lianggang, Director of Military Service, first said: "Considering the training and physical fitness of the Japanese army, if they are familiar with the tactics of street fighting, then in actual combat, the casualties ratio between the enemy and us will exceed one to three!"
Zhong Yi nodded gently. Although emotionally he hoped that the National Army could compete with the Japanese, reason told him that if no miracles occurred, the casualties ratio of one to three would be normal!
General Affairs Director Lu Jixian continued: "If the proportion of casualties between the enemy and us is one to three, then with the current troops of our Wuhan Garrison Command, which has 150,000 troops, all of them can be almost defeated by 50,000 Japanese!"
Everyone present nodded subconsciously. It was already very powerful to fight 150,000 to 50,000 Japanese!
That is to say, street fighting, and with Zhong Yi's command, it would be impossible to achieve such a casualty ratio!
Qiu Zongding, the Communications Director, continued: "The question now is whether it is enough to defeat 50,000 Japanese soldiers to make Higashikui'eri Nihiko's Second Army? Can the main force in the Fifth War Zone have an opportunity to fight against the plane?"
In the final analysis, they did not defend Wuhan to defend it, but to usher in a large counterattack!
If they fight all the money in the end, they will not be able to face the counterattack of the Five War Zones, then their defensive defense of Wuhan will be meaningless!
"I'm afraid it won't work." Zhang Shiliang, who attended this meeting for the first time, did not have a low rank and stage frightened position, but expounded his views openly. "The second army under Higashijiujiu Nihiko's command had more than 200,000 people, and it was not enough to hurt him if he only fought for 50,000 people!"
The entire conference room became silent.
After pausing, Zhang Shiliang said again: "According to the most conservative estimate, at least 100,000 troops of the Second Army need to be defeated, and at least another 50,000 people must be injured, so that the Second Army can be damaged!"
The conference room suddenly became quieter and even more silent!
Because, this is simply an impossible goal!
After pausing for a while, Zhang Shiliang said again: "If you want to achieve a large counterattack in the Fifth War Zone, you have to add another premise! That is, the troops in the Ninth War Zone must drag the Okamura Yanji 11th Army on the border of Hunan and Jiangxi, and you must not let it cross the Xiushui and Wuning line to rush to Wuhan!"
...
At this time, in Xiushui County, the 9th War Zone Front Command and the First Corps Command.
Yu Jishi hurried into the war room and said to Xue Yue in a nearly begging tone: "Master, I beg you, be good, please leave some seeds for our 74th Army!"
"No!" Before Xue Yue could speak, Zhang Lingfu said decisively, "The 74th Army must not withdraw!"
"Zhang Lingfu?!" Yu Jishi was still a little afraid of Xue Yue, but he was not afraid of Zhang Lingfu, the small chief of staff. He immediately said angrily, "Believe it or not, I will kill you!"
After saying that, Yu Jishi took out his pistol and pointed it at Zhang Lingfu's forehead.
Yu Jishi was really anxious because the 74th Army made the Japanese fight miserable!
After nearly half a month of fighting in Wuning County, the 51st Division of the 74th Army had fought less than 2,000 people left, and the 58th Division was even worse. There were only 800 people left in the entire division commander Feng Shengfa!
If we continue to fight, the 74th Army can really cancel its establishment!
Zhang Lingfu didn't blink his eyes at the head of the pistol, staring at Yu Ji like a rifle and said, "Captain Yu, even if you really shot me, the 74th Army cannot retreat!"
"You!" Yu Jishi was furious when he heard this.
But he didn't dare to shoot Zhang Lingfu if he really asked Yu Jishi to kill him. Although he was a loyal confidant of Principal Chang, wasn't Zhang Lingfu a proud student who registered with Principal Chang?
For a moment, Yu Jishi was a little embarrassed to come to Taiwan.
Fortunately, Xue Yue said at this time: "Okay, Liangzhen, stop making trouble."
Yu Jishi then put away the gun awkwardly, but he had a bitter face and refused to leave.
Xue Yue scratched his head and said, "Three days, I will hold on for the last three days and I will withdraw your 74th Army!"
"Master, this is what you said!" Yu Jishi was immediately excited and said, "Hold the last three days!"
"This is what I said, only three days!" Xue Yue nodded and said in a deep voice, "You just need to retreat in three days!"
"Thank you, General Secretary!" Yu Jishi stood at attention and turned around and went excitedly. If he had only been guarding for three days, he would still be confident. After all, Wang Yaowu's 51st Division had more than 2,000 elite troops left!
Watching Yu Jishi's figure fade away, Xue Yue's brows gradually frowned.
Once the 74th Army retreated, he really couldn't find any other troops to push up!
