"I report to General Okamura that I will fulfill my mission and complete the task!" Nanyun Tengyu was the first to express his position. His political consciousness was still in place.

"Your Excellency, General Okamura, I am telling you that the extra-high-level courses will definitely not hold back the entire Eleventh Army!" Fujita Endeavor also expressed his stance.

"Sit down!" Okamura Neji nodded lightly.

"Everyone, what do you think about the fact that the Nanchang battle and the Suizao battle did not achieve the planned combat goals?" Okamura Neiji leaned forward slightly and put his hands on the table. His eyes were like sharp knives.

Sweeping through everyone.

At this moment, a Japanese major general stood up. He stood at attention and saluted Lieutenant General Okamura Neiji: "Your Excellency, the distinguished commander, I have some superficial opinions on the next actions, and I don't know what to do."

It does not meet the requirements of His Majesty the Commander."

I saw Okamura Neji nodded, then looked at the Japanese major general, and said: "Yamamoto-kun, just say it's okay! The purpose of our meeting this time is to pool everyone's strengths to eliminate the enemy in front of us.

Army, and contribute wisdom and strength to the establishment of a bloody circle for the Imperial Army."

"Hai!! Thank you for your appreciation, Commander!!" Major General Yamamoto directly sent a big flattery, "In my humble opinion, we should concentrate our efforts on annihilating part of the current China Army to relieve the pressure of our Imperial Army in Wuhan.

Military pressure from all sides, whether it is north of the Yangtze River or south of the Yangtze River, is very necessary to implement this strategy. Please make your decision, Commander!"

After hearing what Major General Yamamoto said, Okamura Neiji nodded slightly, and then said loudly: "Yamamoto-kun's words are very reasonable and forward-looking. I think we should use this as a step to formulate a combat strategy.

Do you think this should be done?”

The people on the field are very aware of Okamura Neji's temper. When he asked, he was actually asking for advice in a symbolic sense. He would do whatever he should do, and he couldn't be following their orders.

carried out by will.

Therefore, the Japanese officers present immediately responded: "Your Excellency, Commander, is wise and powerful! May your military fortunes be prosperous!!"

Yes, this was the unanimous response on the field, which could be described as a constant stream of flattery.

"Since everyone thinks so, let's move on to the next topic! So, which enemy force should we capture as the target for annihilation?" Okamura Neiji directly set the tone.

What is strange is that the officers on the field looked at each other one after another, and then one of the major generals stood up and reported: "Your Excellency, Commander, I believe that our troops should concentrate on annihilating the areas north of the Yangtze River first.

The enemy, if circumstances permit, must severely damage Li Zongren's troops."

"Please tell me your reasons." Okamura Neji said in a deep voice. He would not take the initiative to reveal his intentions until the last moment.

"The reason for my humble position is that the enemies south of the Yangtze River do not pose the most direct threat to us. However, if our troops in the Wuhan area are empty, then Li Zongren's troops will be able to march straight into Wuhan. By then, we will win Wuhan with hard work

The achievements of the three towns will be wiped out in one day. Therefore, I believe that it is very necessary to severely damage or annihilate the enemy's fifth theater headquarters!" The major general who got up was full of energy. It was obvious that he was from the northern movement.

"So, are there any other different opinions?" Okamura Neiji asked everyone again.

At this moment, Major General Yamamoto, who had just stood up to answer the question of Lieutenant General Okamura Neiji, stood up. He stood at attention and said: "Report to your Excellency, Commander, I have different opinions. Please allow me to report!"

Lieutenant General Okamura Neiji nodded slightly and said: "Yamamoto-kun, please tell me!"

"I believe that although Li Zongren's headquarters in the enemy's fifth theater is very close to Wuhan, it actually does not pose a great threat to us because their troops are among the Chinese army with poor weapons and equipment and weak combat effectiveness.

The local army was armed, and the troops deployed by our army around Wuhan sometimes numbered at least two divisions. In addition, the surrounding environment of the three towns in Wuhan was conducive to the defending side. Therefore, I believe that Li Zongren’s No. 1 troops

The Fifth Theater does not pose a big threat, and it is very necessary for us to move south quickly." Major General Yamamoto said bluntly.

"Then please tell me the necessity of going south!" To be honest, Okamura Neji was indeed a little moved when he heard it, but it was not enough for him to make a decision directly, and he had to treat everyone equally, so he said

He said these words.

"I believe that Hunan is the granary of China, the southwest barrier of the Nationalist Government in Chongqing, and a major source of troops and grain-producing provinces for them. As long as we capture the entire territory of Hunan, the China Army will surely lose the battle with our army.

The determination to fight to the end. If they lose this province with a large military base and a large food-producing province, what will they use to fight us? Therefore, I believe that we must concentrate our efforts to break through the first barrier to capture the entire Hunan!" Yamamoto

The major general is very confident, because in his opinion, this strategy is the right state of mind.

"I think what Mr. Yamamoto said is also very reasonable. I want to see everyone's opinions. Those who support the northward march please raise your left hand, and those who support the southward march please raise your right hand." Okamura Neiji said in a deep voice.

Soon, the field was divided into two distinct groups - the two groups were roughly equal in number. In other words, it was equally necessary to advance north and south.

After much thought, Okamura Neiji decided to make two preparations - if the southward advance did not go smoothly, then immediately proceed to the northward advance. In short, he must cut off one of the enemy's hands no matter what!

"I decided to prepare with both hands! If the southward movement does not go smoothly, then the northward movement will be carried out!" Okamura Neiji made a direct decision.

Seeing that the commander had already spoken, it was pointless for them to argue, so the officers present immediately formed a unanimous opinion: "Hai!!"

Seeing this scene, Okamura Neji felt very satisfied: What is the art of controlling the subordinates? This is the art of controlling the subordinates!

"Then let's decide. Sir, please discuss the battle preparations for the southward march. From which direction should we attack? What military goal should we achieve? Which enemy unit should be annihilated? These questions are very important, please.

Sir, you can speak freely!" Neji Okamura said seriously, and unknowingly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth...
