After discovering that there was a time difference between the two Japanese armies, Xu Rui wanted to seize the opportunity to annihilate the Judi Brigade in one fell swoop. Even if he could not completely annihilate the Judi Brigade, he would try his best to cripple it, and then move eastward.
Block the roads on both sides of the road from Pucheng to Feicheng, delaying the Inaba Division as much as possible. △,
Since there is only one dirt road from Pucheng to Feicheng that can only accommodate two trucks in parallel, and there are high mountains on both sides, the Hamura detachment not long ago suffered a big loss between the high mountains on both sides of this road, so Xu Rui
We are still confident that we can use this road and the terrain on both sides of the road to hold the Inaba Division for at least seven days.
Seven days later, by the time the Inaba Division breaks through all the obstacles and reaches Feicheng, they will probably be exhausted. If they do not take a short rest, they will be unable to attack. This will take another two to three days.
Adding up the time before and after, half a month is almost enough. Next, Feicheng can defend it, if not, just abandon the city.
Anyway, the half-month deadline given by the commander of the Third War Zone has been reached, so why bother to defend one city and one place?
However, the ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny.
This time, the new commander of the Central China Front Army, Shunroku Hata, who had just arrived in Nanjing, did not make a stupid mistake again. He discovered that there was a time difference between the two Japanese armies, so he ordered the Inaba Division to immediately march west from Pukou. Now the two Japanese armies advanced together and gathered in Feicheng.
The nearby Kuomintang and Communist coalition forces were somewhat distracted by one thing and at the expense of the other, and were at a loss to cope.
The pressure on Luo Feng is actually greater than that of Xu Rui.
Because Xu Rui could afford to lose in the Feicheng battle, but he, Luo Feng, could not afford to lose.
Therefore, Luo Feng was the most unwilling to face the unfavorable situation of two Japanese armies attacking Feicheng at the same time. At that moment, Luo Feng frowned and asked: "Then, can one of them be used to block the attack near Chaohu and hold back the Kikuchi brigade?"
regiment, and then the main force of the coalition forces moves eastward from the Dawan Teapot Au area to inflict heavy losses on the Inaba Division?"
As soon as Luo Feng finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to Xu Rui.
If Xu Rui hadn't been around, Luo Feng would have been scolded if he dared to ask.
Are you kidding me? With just over 3,000 and less than 4,000 people from the Dameishan Independent Regiment plus the Central Anhui Advance Brigade, you want to severely damage a Japanese division? Even adding four detachments is impossible. The Kumamoto Division is a small enemy.
The most capable of fighting among the seventeen permanent divisions, does he really think that the Japanese are made of clay and paper and can kill them with just one breath?
But with Xu Rui here, everyone's thoughts immediately changed.
There is no other reason than that Xu Rui is a man who is used to creating miracles.
Back in Wuxi City, the temporary 79th Division had almost been beaten into pieces by the Japanese. But as soon as Xu Rui appeared, the whole situation immediately changed. In the end, Xu Rui not only brought the remnants of the temporary 79th Division to turn the situation around, but
, and even staged a brilliant ambush, killing Fushimi Gong Toshihiko, the newly arrived commander of the Central China Condemnation Army.
Good guy, Fushimi Miya Toshihiko is the prince of little Japan! The noblest among nobles!
Also in Nantong City, Xu Rui wiped out a Japanese detachment with only 500 or 600 remnant soldiers. It was a total annihilation, that was a total annihilation! It was not a heavy damage, let alone a defeat, it was a total annihilation!
Let’s not talk about the later ones in Hai’an and Dameishan, they are nothing.
For others, that is a great miracle, but for Xu Rui, it is just ordinary, because Xu Rui has created too many miracles.
Therefore, as long as Xu Rui is here, anything can happen.
However, Xu Rui disappointed them this time. Xu Rui shook his head and said: "Since Japan's Warring States Period, Kumamoto's folk customs have been very fierce, so the Kumamoto Division has the strongest combat effectiveness among the seventeen permanent divisions in Little Japan.
Moreover, a division and a brigade are different. Facing a Japanese brigade, we may have a little chance, but facing a Japanese division, we have no chance at all. So, let's face reality.
"
What Xu Rui said is true. War has its iron laws.
Even though Xu Rui is a time traveler, even though he brings military ideas from the future world and extraordinary commanding attainments, he still cannot subvert the laws of war. He cannot swallow a Japanese division in one bite, at least at this stage.
It is absolutely impossible. When the independent regiment becomes an independent division in the future, there may be a slight possibility.
Luo Feng sighed, clenched his fists and said, "Then we have no choice but to fight hard with the little devil."
Xu Rui nodded and said in a deep voice: "Don't think about taking the initiative to attack. The most urgent task is to put more thought into the fortifications. Try to build a complete fortification before the Japanese soldiers invade the border. Otherwise, we have to defend Feicheng."
At least half a month is really tough.”
After the military meeting ended, Luo Feng took Ding Li and Lei Peng to leave first.
He Guangming, Wan Zhongshan, Xu Dekun and He Shuya also left one after another.
However, the cavalry battalion commander Tiegang was left behind by Xu Rui. Xu Rui asked Tiegang: "Gangzi, the two armies of the Japs are about to arrive at Feicheng. How are the people in the city being evacuated?"
Tiegang said: "Some people have moved to our base area with the political commissar, and some people have gone to relatives' homes in the countryside. However, there are still a small number of people who refuse to move, especially those wealthy businessmen and gentry, who basically have not left. I
It seems that they are all secretly hoping that the little Japs will come back."
Xu Rui said: "Ignore them, if they want to stay, then just stay."
Tiegang said: "I'm just afraid that when the Japanese soldiers come to the border, these guys will secretly cause trouble."
Xu Rui smiled ferociously and said, "I wish they could do mischief secretly."
Tiegang was stern when he heard the words, and said to himself that it seemed that the group leader was really planning to kill these wealthy businessmen and gentry, but these wealthy businessmen and gentry did not deserve sympathy. It was inappropriate to leave good Chinese people alone, and they insisted on being used as dogs by the Japanese. Who should blame them?
?Of course, it is wrong for the group leader to cause trouble and steal their property, but this must not be a reason to become a traitor.
"Leizi, let's go." Xu Rui placed his general's hat heavily on his head, turned around and left the headquarters.
After leaving the headquarters, Xu Rui took Lei Xiang directly to the Meixian office. The Dameishan Independent Regiment had finally captured a provincial city. Of course, all resources must be scavenged. In addition to money and materials, there are also human resources.
, especially educated young students, are the most valuable human resources.
Feicheng is the capital of Anhui Province and has several universities.
Before the fall of Feicheng, several universities had already moved to Wuhan, and most of the students at the school also followed, but many students chose to stay. After all, it is hard to leave their hometown. For example, Huang Shouxin, who was originally from Feicheng
He was a normal student at the Higher Normal College, but after the school moved to Wuhan, he did not leave, but returned home.
There are actually not many students like Huang Shouxin, especially in Feicheng.
So Wang Husheng transferred Wu Qian, who was in charge of human affairs, from Meizhen to Feicheng and set up a special office.
Xu Rui brought Lei Xiang to the door of the office, and happened to see a female student standing on the steps giving a speech: "Students, everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. Our Chinese nation has reached its most critical moment, and we are about to be annihilated."
Do you want your own nation to perish? Do you want your descendants to be slaves to the subjugation of the country?"
"Isn't this David's female translator Liang Yixiao?" Xu Rui was a little surprised after seeing the female student's appearance clearly, "Why didn't she go with David?"
Wu Qian came over and said, "She has now joined the youth training team."
"Really?" Looking at Liang Yixiao who was giving a passionate speech on the steps, Xu Rui suddenly felt a slight movement in his heart. Now he should really consider introducing talents. As the construction of the base gradually enters the track, in the future, it will be like power plants, chemical plants, and arsenals.
Cities will be built one after another, and a large number of technical talents will be needed.
Liang Yixiao asked loudly: "Students, Little Japan wants to destroy our country, our nation, our culture and civilization. They want our descendants to speak Japanese, learn Japanese, and be their imperial subjects forever."
, will you always be their slaves, do you agree?"
"No, no!" dozens of students standing under the steps responded loudly.
"That's right, if you don't agree, we won't agree!" Liang Yixiao clenched his fists and said, "However, the Japanese invaders have already set foot on the land of China, and the brutal invaders will not listen to our rules, so,
We have only one way, and that is to take up arms, fight with them, and drive the Japanese invaders out of China!"
The speech temporarily came to an end, and dozens of students immediately swarmed to the registration desk, scrambling to sign up.
Compared with adults, young people have relatively simple thoughts and fewer worries, so they are easier to be incited. This is both their shortcoming and their advantage. In peaceful times, this is a shortcoming, because they can easily be attacked by hostile forces.
Controlled by public opinion and propaganda, it has become the vanguard and leading party in subverting its own government.
As a time traveler, Xu Rui has seen many such cases.
For example, Libya, Egypt, Ukraine, and Hong Kong are all simple-minded students who were first controlled by Western public opinion and became the vanguard of subverting their own local governments. In the end, they made a mess of their own homes. In the end, they are always the ones who suffer.
compatriots, it is always the Western powers that benefit.
But in the war years, the passion of young people is their greatest advantage.
Because of the passion of young people, there was a petition on the bus, and then there was the Westernization Movement.
Because of the passion of young people, there was the Revolution of 1911, and the feudal monarchy finally entered the grave.
Because of the passion of young people, there was the May Fourth Movement, and then China was born!
Because of the passion of young people, countless young students or young soldiers will go on to join the battlefield. Without these young students and young soldiers, it is difficult to imagine what China would become.
