"Is this necessary?" Li Pinxian said, "I can't wait for three days?"

Sun Lianzhong also echoed: "Yes, Sun Liren's front-line command has nine divisions under his command, with a small 100,000 troops, and they are all elites who have fought for the rest of their lives in the Wuhan defense battle. It should be no problem to keep Xiaogan for ten days, right?"

Tang Enbo said even more overly and sinisterly: "Director Zhong did this to reduce the casualties in Xiaogan's previous reference?"

"Then we can't be treated as victims, right?" Li Pinxian said in a deep voice, "Is it the officers and soldiers mentioned in front of Xiaogan the life, and the lives of more than 600,000 officers and soldiers here are not life?"

Hu Zongnan and Yu Jishi didn't say much.

Because four of the nine divisions in front of Xiaogan have been incorporated into their two troops, they do not want the troops in front of Xiaogan to have too many casualties.

But Li Pinxian, Sun Lianzhong and Tang Enbo obviously didn't think so.

They would rather hold on for a few more days in front of Xiaogan, so that they can be more relaxed here.

This is the national army. The national army is surrounded by hills. If the total number of casualties is fixed, they all hope that the casualties on their own hills can be smaller and other hills can be larger.

Zhong Yi's face immediately collapsed. These military leaders only thought that they would have to hold on for a few more days, so that their losses would be smaller. However, they did not expect that once they played too much, once Xiaogan's front finger could not withstand the Japanese attack, all the main forces of the more than 600,000 national troops here would have to finish!

How can there be a complete egg under the collapse of the nest? They just can't understand this principle!

This is also one of the reasons for the defeat of the National Army in the later Liberation War!

But Zhong Yi knew better that it was useless to reason with these military leaders, so he could only turn his head and look at Bai Chongbei!

Bai Chongbei was also a little hesitant. From his personal emotions, he still hoped that the Gui army would have fewer casualties, but on the other hand, he saw that he was farther away than Li Pinxian and the others, and knew that once Xiaogan could not stand the Japanese army's fierce attack, he would have to finish the more than 600,000 main forces on their side.

Bai Chongbei asked: "Zi Ren, please give me a solid foundation. How many days can Xiaogan last?"

"To be honest, I can't say it right!" Zhong Yi said, "Maybe half a month, maybe ten days, or three days will be lost. There are too many factors that determine the outcome of the war. I am not on the front line of Xiaogan, so I dare not make an assertion easily!"

"Director Zhong, can't this be possible?" Tang Enbo said sarcastically, "The ten brigades of the Wuhan Garrison Command have been in Wuhan for more than three months. Now Sun Liren's nine divisions are the ten brigades of the Wuhan Garrison Command. They even have more combat experience. Can they still not be able to defend Xiaogan for ten days?"

"Captain Tang Army, you can't say that." Zhong Yi said coldly, "Preventing Wuhan is a street fighting. If you fight street fighting, the nine divisions in front of Xiaogan can last for at least three months even if they face ten Japanese divisions! But the problem is that the ones in front of Xiaogan are not fighting street fighting with the Japanese army now, but field battles and position wars!"

"Is this wrong?" Li Pinxian said, "Xiaogan is also a county town, why can't he fight street battles?"

Zhong Yi said: "Xiaogan is just a small county town, and it cannot accommodate nine divisions at all. What's more, the Pinghan Railway and highway did not pass through Xiaogan County. The Japanese army did not need to capture the county town and could go south to Wuhan directly! Therefore, the nine divisions pointed to by Xiaogan must not be curbed in the city, but must be deployed outside the city and fight a field battle with the Japanese army going south."

Sun Lianzhong frowned and said, "Even if he is fighting in a wild game, he won't be able to defend it for ten days, right?"

"Commander-in-Chief Sun." Zhong Yi's eyes fell on Sun Lianzhong's face and said sincerely, "You have fought a strong battle with the Japanese on the Xuzhou battlefield. You know how difficult the Japanese are in the field. Ask yourself, if it were the Second Army, how many days could they defend Xiaogan against the Japanese army?"

When Sun Lianzhong heard this, he immediately fell silent.

Hearing this, Bai Chong no longer hesitated and shouted: "Tell me the order that all corpses, armies and corps in the war zone will immediately launch an attack on Changhewan! There must be no delay for a moment!"

"Yes!" Luo Zhengying agreed and signaled the staff behind him to send an order.

Watching the staff officer leave, Bai Chongbei asked Zhong Yi again: "Zi Ren, if you launch an attack now, how many days will it take to annihilate the two Japanese divisions?"

Zhong Yi said: "If you launch the general attack at any cost, you can at least two days in advance!"

"Two days?" Bai Chong said sadly, "What do you mean is that you can end the battle within two days?"

"Yes." Zhong Yi nodded, "As long as the troops participating in the war can work together and spare their lives, it is still possible to annihilate the 22nd and 27th Divisions of the Japanese Army within two days and nights!"

Bai Chong's face changed again and again, and finally shouted: "I passed the order that all corpses, armies and corps in the theater will immediately launch a general attack on the Japanese army in Changhewan. After receiving the order, all the troops participating in the war must do their best and do not give up any shirk. Those who dare to disobey the military order will definitely not let go of it!"

...

Changhewan, the temporary command of the 18th Army.

Deputy Commander Chen Pei quickly stepped into the command center and said to Commander Peng Shan: "Military Commander, the Chief Officer's Officer's Department urgently sent a telegram!"

"Is there something wrong with the person surnamed Zhong?" Peng Shan said angrily, "We are going to deprive us of command again?"

Because the commander's command was directly transferred to the regiment level before, which made him a military leader become a decoration, Peng Shan was so angry that he was still angry until the two Japanese divisions were trapped that the commander's command was returned to the commander's command. At this moment, Peng Shan still said that the commander's commander was deprived of the commander's power again.

"Standard, it's not what you think." Chen Pei said quickly, "It was the general offensive order issued by the superiors!"

"What? General Attack?" Peng Shan said, "This is not a good time for general Attack. After a day or two, will the Japanese have exhausted medicines and drinking water before the general Attack will be better?"

The situation of the Japanese army trapped in the long river bend is, and Commander Peng Shan, who is on the front line, knows very well.

Now let alone the Japanese in the long river bay, even their 18th Army, drinking water has become a problem.

In this case, as long as you siege for two to three days, the Japanese in Changhewan will lose their combat effectiveness.

Chen Pei whispered: "It may be something happened to Xiaogan or Huang An, and time will not allow it."

"I know, I know." Peng Shan groaned and said, "It's always a loss of links at critical moments!"

Chen Pei glanced outside the straw shed and whispered: "Military, should we wait first and see if the Second Army and the Eleventh Army were convinced of the orders of the public?"

"No, you can't wait for this matter." Peng Shan said, "Order the 11th Division, the 18th Division and the 199th Division immediately enter the right wing of Changhewan to put out the fire. When the fire is small, you will immediately launch a general attack!"
