In the small conference room of Dongye headquarters, Vice Chairman Zhou, General Peng, Commander Ye Ting, the commanders of the three main divisions of the Eighth Route Army, Chief of Staff Zhang Yunyi of the New Fourth Army, Commander-in-Chief Dongye Liu Hua, Chief of Staff Luo Ronghuan of Dongye, and Chief of Staff Zuoquan of Dongye came to attend Liu Hua's wedding.
Long. Several people, with Vice Chairman Zhou as the center, were sitting around a huge circular table.
After taking a look at the conference room in front of him, almost all the senior generals of the Chinese Communist Party were gathered. After getting the signal from Vice Chairman Zhou, our protagonist Liu Hua slowly stood up from his seat. Then, under the gaze of everyone
, took out a telegram and said.
"Vice Chairman Zhou, General Peng, Commander Ye, comrades, this is an important message that our Dongye Intelligence Section Radio Listening Room just picked up from the Kwantung Army's mutual communication radio signal. However, currently this
The news, both to the Japanese army and to us, is still kept secret and has not been disseminated... And this news is really important to China's current anti-war situation. Therefore, I did not ask everyone
After agreeing, I called all the leaders very rashly."
"Comrade Liu Hua, what's going on? It's so important..." Seeing Liu Hua, who rarely showed a serious expression on his face, Vice Chairman Zhou also realized the seriousness of the matter and asked with a frown on his face.
"The situation is like this. According to intelligence, the Japanese combined fleet's aircraft carrier-based aircraft and mini-submarines successfully attacked the US Navy fleet's Pearl Harbor base in Hawaii and the US Army and Navy air bases on Huludao early this morning. If
As expected, the Japanese army's 'southern plan' has begun to be implemented. At the same time, the United States, which has always adhered to neutrality, is about to join the war because of the Japanese navy's sneak attack..." Liu Hua replied.
Suddenly, the entire conference room was filled with buzzing discussions. Even Vice Chairman Zhou, who was sitting in the center, was stunned by the earth-shattering news from Liu Hua.
Finally, after several minutes of discussion, everyone immediately turned their attention to Vice Chairman Zhou in front of them, waiting for Vice Chairman Zhou's answer.
"Comrade Liu Hua, can you ensure the accuracy of this news? The Navy really launched a sneak attack on the U.S. Pacific Fleet and won..."
"Reporting to Vice Chairman Zhou, I guarantee that this news is accurate. So far, the Japanese combined fleet has successfully returned, and all the bombing targets have been turned into ruins under the bombing of the Japanese carrier-based aircraft groups..." Liu Hua said very
Answered in the affirmative.
After receiving Liu Hua's affirmative answer, Vice Chairman Zhou immediately set his sights on Mr. Peng, the oldest person in the conference room, and then asked.
"Lao Peng, what do you think of this matter?"
"Vice Chairman Zhou, my experience is all on the domestic battlefield. I am not particularly clear about foreign affairs. However, what I do know is that the United States, as the most powerful industrial empire in the world, is in this world.
At this time, it is a very unwise choice to draw the United States into the battlefield." Mr. Peng shook his head and then said.
When Vice Chairman Zhou turned his attention to Ye Ting, Ye Ting shook his head helplessly.
Finally, Vice Chairman Zhou set his sights on Liu Hua. Then, with the last glimmer of hope, he asked: "Comrade Liu Hua, what do you think of this matter? After this incident happened
, what kind of impact will it have on the current domestic anti-war situation?"
"Reporting to Vice Chairman Zhou, I completely agree with Mr. Peng's idea. *** At this time, it is indeed a very unwise decision to go to war with the United States, which has the title of industrial empire. It can be said that the entire
The fate of the country is an unprecedented gamble."
Seeing that everyone nodded in agreement, Liu Hua continued: "Although, regarding today's military operation of sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese combined fleet achieved a temporary victory. However, as long as the United States activates its war machine,
, the ships and aircraft they lost in this incident will definitely be replenished in a short time. By then, what is waiting for the Japanese combined fleet is the crazy revenge of the U.S. Navy. Unless the Japanese army can
A large number of army troops were imported into Southeast Asia and other regions, and they occupied the entire Southeast Asia and the southwest Pacific. However, even so, after the US military regained its strength, what awaited the Japanese army was also crazy revenge and counterattack..."
"In addition, on the Chinese battlefield, the millions of elite Kwantung Army troops gathered in the three northeastern provinces are already under siege by our Northeast Field Army, the Soviet Far East Red Army, the 120th Division of the Eighth Route Army and other units. They are unable to move and are unable to mobilize powerful troops.
, participate in their plan to go south."
"Look at the Japanese North China Front Army with hundreds of thousands of troops. Under the siege of our Eighth Route Army, they also suffered heavy losses and had no chance to move south. As for the Central China Front Army, there was even less chance. Because, around them, there were
I am eyeing the New Fourth Army, Yan Xishan's Shanxi-Sui Army, and the Japanese troops in the Dongtiao Mountain area. Their South China Front Army and the Shanghai Expeditionary Army are directly threatened by the Central Army of the Communist Party of China, and they have no ability to dispatch them at will.
"
"So, the two million Japanese troops stationed in the country have been deeply trapped in the quagmire of the Chinese Anti-Japanese War. And if the Japanese army wants to gather dozens of field divisions and launch their plan to go south, there is only one choice. That
It is to reorganize the new army. If calculated according to the domestic population base of ***, the number of soldiers they can recruit is almost exhausted."
"Therefore, I dare to conclude here that the little devil's launch of this military operation is tantamount to self-destruction. At the same time, the end of the little devil is slowly approaching with the start of the sneak attack early this morning..."
"Okay, well said..." As soon as Liu Hua finished speaking, Mr. Peng applauded first. Then he said with admiration.
"Comrade Liu Hua, although I am your elder. However, in terms of campaign command and analysis of the world structure, I, Peng Dehuai, admit that no matter what, I am not as good as you..."
Immediately afterwards, Commander Ye Ting also said: "Comrade Liu Hua, what you said is so good, it really wakes me up from my dream... Vice Chairman Zhou, through Comrade Liu Hua's analysis, I completely agree with Liu Hua
Comrade’s opinion, the end of the little devil is coming soon with the start of the sneak attack this morning.”…
After everyone spoke, Vice Chairman Zhou once again focused his gaze on Liu Hua in front of him. Then, he asked meaningfully.
"Comrade Liu Hua, you have a very unique perspective on the analysis of the current situation. So, what do you think our *** should do now?"
"Reporting to Vice Chairman Zhou, I believe that we should take advantage of the Japanese army's plan to move south and have no time to worry about our favorable opportunity, concentrate our forces, launch a strategic counterattack against all Japanese troops on the Chinese battlefield, and wipe out a large number of the Japanese army's effective forces.
.At the same time, through this battle, we can declare to the world our Chinese Communist Party’s determination to fight fascism, thus attracting the attention of other countries to our Chinese Communist Party’s military strength..." Liu Hua decisively stated what he had planned.
long thought.
"Um? What's next?" Vice Chairman Zhou's eyes lit up and he continued to ask.
"In the battlefields of Southeast Asia and the Pacific, if the United States wants to deal with the continuous flow of Japanese army troops moving south, it must find ways to contain the limited Japanese forces in other battlefields. And the Eighth Route Army, New Fourth Army, and Northeast Army led by our Chinese Communist Party
The three armies of the field army contained a total of more than one million elite soldiers of the Communist Army on the huge Chinese battlefield."
"When the time comes, our Chinese Communist Party will undoubtedly enter the sight of European and American countries. At that time, we can use this to ask the United States and other European and American countries to support us with a large amount of industrial equipment and develop our own heavy industry, thus promoting our
The army's modernization construction will contain a large number of the effective forces of the Japanese army, and make full preparations for the final counterattack..." Facing Vice Chairman Zhou's rhetorical question, Liu Hua no longer hesitated and directly expressed all the thoughts in his heart.
The tray came out and everything was told...
For a moment, a burst of noisy discussion rang out in the conference room again. However, a few minutes later, everyone in the conference room, including Vice Chairman Zhou, gave Liu Hua a burst of appreciation.
The gaze made Commander-in-Chief Liu Hua at a loss for a moment.
However, at this moment, Vice Chairman Zhou smiled and said, solving the problem of Liu Hua who was currently in embarrassment.
"Comrade Liu Hua, I find that putting you in the post of Commander-in-Chief of Dongye is really an insult to your talents. I am thinking that after I go back, I will suggest to the Military Commission that you be transferred to the Central Committee as the Chief of Staff of the Communist Party of China.
Occupation…”
"Hahaha..." As soon as Vice Chairman Zhou finished speaking, a burst of good-natured laughter rang out in the conference room.
"Okay, comrades, let's get down to business. As for Comrade Liu Hua's proposal just now, I will report it to the Communist Party of China as soon as possible and submit it to the Military Commission for discussion. At that time, the *** will directly give it to everyone here,
Issue the latest combat order." After the atmosphere in the conference room relaxed to a certain extent, Vice Chairman Zhou ordered with a serious face.
"yes…."
"Comrade Liu Hua, we are all here now. Can you first introduce to us the specific operational goals and final strategic goals of the Northeast Field Army in this counterattack?" Vice Chairman Zhou asked.
"Yes, Vice Chairman Zhou..." Liu Hua replied readily. Then, he walked to the huge combat map on the wall, pointed at the huge three eastern provinces on the map, and said.
"At present, the seven main armies of our Northeast Field Army, as well as all the directly affiliated troops of the field army, totaling more than 200,000 troops, have fully formed combat effectiveness. As for the eight armies that have just been reorganized, although they still lack a certain number of commanders, they are
The department has been reorganized. What I mean is that all combat troops, a total of fifteen corps, a guard division, and a heavy artillery division, will be pulled out and actively launch an attack on the Kwantung Army. Treat the entire offensive process as battlefield training.
….”
"As for the specific combat purpose, it depends on the situation. My initial idea is to gradually shrink the Kwantung Army's living space through a step-by-step approach. Ultimately, directly occupy the entire Liaoning Province and eastern Jilin
area, the southeastern area of Heilongjiang, and finally directly cut off the connection between the Kwantung Army and the Korean Front Army... In addition, there is another important combat purpose, which is to take advantage of the favorable opportunity of the Japanese navy to move south to occupy a port. Open our ***
Maritime communication channels with European and American countries..."
"What a big appetite... Comrade Liu Hua, it seems that your Northeast Field Army has the strength to fight a strategic decisive battle with the Kwantung Army. How about it? Are there any difficulties? When the time comes, I will ask He Huzhu's 120th Division
Cooperate to contain the hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Army troops in the Xifengkou Great Wall area..." After a brief shock, Mr. Peng reacted first and then asked.
"Thank you, Mr. Peng, and thank you, Mr. He. With the cooperation of the 120th Division, our army will have a greater chance of winning this counterattack..." Liu Hua replied with a grateful face.
"Okay, Comrade Liu Hua, we are all members of the Communist Party, armed with the party leadership, and we should help each other. Don't be polite to me. Of course, if you really want to thank me,
Just give me back all the dowry I gave you yesterday..." Mr. Peng said with a wicked smile.
"Mr. Peng, stop it, just stop it... A dowry is a dowry, and helping me means helping me. They can't be confused. In a word, I must get those more than a hundred commanders..." Liu Hua replied affirmatively, once again
It caused the whole conference room to burst into laughter...
Vice Chairman Zhou waved his hand, and after the entire conference room fell into silence once again, he said: "Comrades, Comrade Liu Hua's analysis just now has been said. Ever since the Japanese army launched their so-called 'Southward Plan' and forced the United States to join the war.
It indicates that their doom is coming soon. So, there are still many things we need to do next."
Seeing that everyone nodded in agreement, Vice Chairman Zhou continued: "Comrade Liu Hua has made a complete statement on the current situation in the three northeastern provinces and the existing strength of the Northeast Field Army, as well as on the possible strategic counteroffensive in the future.
The battle plan can be implemented at any time. Therefore, I request that the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army cannot fall behind. They must come up with a battle plan in the shortest possible time and submit it to the *** for review."
"Yes, Vice Chairman Zhou..." several people replied in unison.
Just as everyone finished speaking, Vice Chairman Zhou continued to speak: "Comrades, time is pressing, and the little devil will not leave us much time. So, here, I ask everyone, no matter what method you use,
I must return to my unit within ten days. As for me, I will also return to the Central Committee as soon as possible to discuss the combat plans submitted by each department and make the final decision. Are you clear..."
"Clear…."
"Very good, now I declare that the meeting is adjourned..."
The gate of Fengtian City was put under martial law early in the morning by a regiment of guard troops. Just as the sun was just rising, Vice Chairman Zhou, President Peng, Commander Ye and others were standing in front of their masters Liu Hua, Luo Ronghuan, Zuo Quan and others.
Accompanied by others, he slowly arrived at the gate of the city.
"Comrade Liu Hua, because time is tight, I won't stay here too long. Here, I finally wish you and Comrade Qiaolin to grow old together and have a son..." Holding Liu Hua's hands in front of him, Vice Chairman Zhou said
He said with an excited face.
"Thank you, Vice Chairman Zhou..."
"Comrade Liu Hua, although the battle plan you told us all yesterday morning has not yet been approved by the central government, I believe that with the strategic vision of the Chairman, Commander-in-Chief and others, it is certain to approve your battle request.
So, after we leave, you can start to prepare for the first stage of our army's counterattack against the Japanese invaders. Make preparations for the war as soon as you receive the telegram from the central government.
The Kwantung Army in the three eastern provinces was caught off guard." Vice Chairman Zhou continued to encourage.
"Yes, Vice Chairman Zhou, please rest assured and promise to complete the task..." Liu Hua quickly replied.
Immediately afterwards, Mr. Peng, who was next to Vice Chairman Zhou, said: "Comrade Liu Hua, I won't say more about my blessings. After I go back, I will definitely give the dowry to Comrade Qiao Lin as soon as possible.
Send it to you. At the same time, the 120th Division will also start to assemble towards the Xifengkou Great Wall area according to our discussion yesterday, creating a certain amount of military pressure on the Kwantung Army defenders..."
"Thank you, Mr. Peng..." Liu Hua said with a grateful face.
"Comrade Liu Hua, I, Ye Ting, am alone. I have nothing to give you, and at the same time, I have nothing to help you. Therefore, on behalf of all the officers and men of the New Fourth Army, I wish you and Comrade Qiao Lin a long life together and a son soon."
At the same time, I wish the Northeast Field Army a final victory in the first stage of the counterattack..." Commander Ye Ting said immediately.
Just as Ye Ting finished speaking, Vice Chairman Zhou waved his hand and organized everyone who wanted to continue talking. Then he said: "Comrades, time is pressing. If there are any unnecessary words, let's save them for later after beating the little devil."
.When the time comes, the Central Committee will definitely approve you, say enough. But the most important thing before everyone now is to return to your own troops in the shortest possible time and prepare to accept the new orders from the Central Committee."
"Yes, Vice Chairman Zhou..."
After receiving affirmative answers from everyone, Vice Chairman Zhou immediately set his eyes on Liu Hua beside him. Then he said: "Comrade Liu Hua, as the saying goes, 'We will see you a thousand miles away, but we must say goodbye.'"
, that’s it, don’t go any further. I hope that the next time we meet, the War of Resistance will win the final victory and the little devils will be driven out of the country by us..."
"Yes, Vice Chairman Zhou..." Liu Hua replied affirmatively.
"The 1st Regiment of the Dongye Guard Division has been assembled and is ready to set off at any time. In addition, I have transferred a vehicle transportation battalion from the headquarters logistics department to be responsible for transporting the leaders to Shanhaiguan in the shortest possible time..."
"Okay...Comrades, let's set off now..." Vice Chairman Zhou nodded appreciatively. Then, he ordered very decisively.
