Chapter 734 Prepare for Fire Attack
Macheng, the chief officer of the Dabie Mountains War Zone.
Communication soldiers came out of the communications office and reported the latest battle situation to the General Staff. The combat staff of the General Staff immediately showed the latest battle situation to the sand table.
The small red flag and the small blue flag on the sand table move at a speed visible to the naked eye and recombined.
As time goes by, Li Pinxian, Luo Zhengying, Yu Jishi and others finally saw the truth.
I saw that more than two hundred and dozens of regiments in the Dabie Mountains war zone had formed two huge pocket arrays between the Dayingfang and the Bodao Peak, and between the Bodao Peak and the Dashitou!
Of course, these two pocket arrays have not finally taken shape.
Because the troops detoured to the far end have not yet arrived.
Luo Zhengying couldn't help but praise: "Director Zhong, do you really plan to swallow the two Japanese divisions in one bite!"
"Well, I can see it too." Sun Lianzhong nodded repeatedly, "The pocket formation on the Dayingwan side is prepared for the 22nd Division of the Japanese Army, and the Dashijian side is prepared for the 27th Division, right?"
Yu Jishi also stroked his chin and said, "Maybe, it can be done."
Listening to Luo Zhengying and the others talking there, Tang Enbo looked confused.
Because until now, Tang Enbo's mind is still full of mucus.
Bai Chong was both surprised and happy in his heart. What was surprised was Zhong Yi's command ability. He really didn't expect that Zhong Yi could actually command more than 200 regiments! In addition to his super high coordination ability, he also had to have super fighter jet capture ability and battlefield insight ability, and more importantly, he had to have a super sense of space!
A super strong sense of space means being able to fully display the entire Dabie Mountain terrain in your mind.
In other words, even if there is no map or sand table, Zhong Yi can still command the battle.
Bai Chong always claimed to be extraordinary, but when he asked himself, he was not able to do this.
As for joy, it is because with Zhong Yi's troops deploying troops, under the command and control of Zhong Yi's seemingly random but actually accurate to the Dinghao, two huge ambush circles against the Japanese 22nd Division and the 27th Division were about to take shape. If the Japanese army was really as Zhong Yi expected, they would be dead as hedgehogs gathered into groups and pursued them in divisions!
While thinking, another communication soldier hurried into the war room and handed a telegram to a staff officer.
After reading it, the staff officer immediately reported to Zhong Yi with joy: "Director, the 51st Division reported that the Japanese 22nd Division was shrinking its troops and gathering in the direction of Fengshuao; at the same time, the 11th Division reported that the Japanese 27th Division was also shrinking its troops and gathering in the area of Ratiaojing!"
"I understand!" Zhong Yi waved his hand and said, "Tag to the sand table!"
"Yes!" Several advisers agreed and started the sand table operation.
Bai Chongbei, Li Pinxian and others' eyes fell on the sand table again.
A few staff officers pulled up the blue triangular flags one by one from the sand table and placed them again on another place. Not long after, most of the small blue flags concentrated in two narrow areas.
Bai Chong looked at it with a hurry and suddenly found that these two small blue flags were inside the two ambush circles!
Bai Chong couldn't help but feel overjoyed. Well, the Japanese really stepped into the trap!
Bai Chong turned around sadly and was about to talk to Zhong Yi, but found that Zhong Yi's expression was a little different. To be precise, he was a little solemn and his eyebrows were locked.
Bai Chong felt sad and asked in a low voice: "Zi Ren, is the situation wrong?"
"Yes." Zhong Yi nodded gently and said, "It's not very good."
"No." Bai Chong said in shock, "From the sand table, isn't the situation good? The two huge encirclements that you have worked hard to manage are about to take shape, and the Japanese divisions are about to enter!"
Zhong Yi sighed and said, "Commander-in-Chief, haven't you noticed that the two divisions of the Japanese are too close!"
When Bai Chong looked at it in a hurry, he realized that the distance between the two divisions of the Japanese was not far, and it looked like it was only more than thirty miles or less than fifty miles at most.
At this time, Luo Zhengying and others also discovered it.
Luo Zhengying said: "Indeed, the two divisions of the Japanese are too close!"
Yu Jishi also said: "After the Japanese find something wrong with this distance, they only need to attack relative to each other, and the rendezvous can be completed in only two hours at most!"
Li Pinxian also said: "If the Japanese divisions and divisions complete the rendezvous, the situation will be tricky!"
"Just tricky?" Sun Lianzhong shook his head and said, "If the two divisions of the Japanese are grouped together, even if all the main forces in our Dabie Mountains war zone are concentrated, they will not be able to get rid of them within ten days!"
Bai Chong nodded slightly, and he completely agreed with Sun Lianzhong's judgment.
Zhong Yi also said: "The old Japanese devil Junliu is still very cautious!"
Bai Chong said sadly: "Zi Ren, what should I do now? Otherwise, give up?"
"Give up?" Zhong Yi shook his head and said in a deep voice, "I definitely cannot give up if I give up!"
"Yes." Bai Chong said to himself as if he was sad, and said to Zhong Yi, "If you give up, the two divisions of the Japanese will be like two sharp knives, rushing straight into Wuhan in front of us! By then, even if Liao Lei's 21st Army defends Huang An, even if Sun Liren's nine divisions guard Xiaogan, it will be useless!"
Li Pinxian, Luo Zhengying and others' eyes all fell on Zhong Yi's face.
Zhong Yi's eyes kept moving on the sand table, and said, "If we can find a suitable terrain, even if the Japanese divisions are hugged, they will still have a chance to chew it!"
"Terrain?" Sun Lianzhong asked, "Director Zhong, what kind of terrain do you want?"
"Canyon, or river valley, can do it too!" Zhong Yi said, "Canyon can be attacked by fire, river valley can be attacked by water, first use water and fire to invade a wave, the Japanese's combat power will be lost at least 30% to 40%. This will bring us a chance!"
"Canyon?" Sun Lianzhong suddenly said, "If it was a canyon, I knew there would be a canyon of course!"
"Is that true?" Bai Chong's expression suddenly turned up when he heard this and asked anxiously, "Brother Lu, where is the canyon you mentioned?"
"Here!" Sun Lianzhong took the command rod and pointed it on the sand table, saying, "between Xinkangling and Liuyan Mountain, after the Xuzhou Battle ended, I led the Second Army to retreat to Wuhan and walked on this road. The grass and trees in the canyon were very lush, and it was in late autumn, and the weather was dry and things were dry, so wildfires were easy to occur!"
Zhong Yi focused his attention and said, "It's this place, the long river bay!"
Chapter completed!
