"Actually, if you say so, the Japanese army's intention to outflank our main force in the fifth theater has become increasingly clear." Zhou Fangjie said with a wry smile. Faced with Zhang Tianhai's military talent, it was perfect. As a tough guy, he inevitably felt a sense of disparity in his heart.
You said, these are both students who graduated from Huangpu, and they are both serving in the camp, and they have even found some troops. Why is there such a big gap between them?
In fact, it is normal for Zhou Fangjie to have this kind of mentality - in fact, his abilities have always been very good. It is impossible for people with poor abilities to survive in a unit like the Teaching Corps. Let alone, before he came to the Zhiyi Regiment , that is the position of lieutenant colonel and battalion commander...
To be honest, from the bottom of his heart, Zhang Tianhai felt that he had treated Zhou Fangjie a little badly. If Zhou Fangjie abandoned his regiment and joined Gui Yongqing's 27th Army, he would at least be a regiment commander, otherwise he would be a regiment commander. No matter how you look at it, positions such as brigade chief of staff are more promising than those in the Zhiyi Regiment.
I thought about it in my heart, but I couldn't say these words. If Zhou Fangjie felt that he was at a loss after thinking about it, and really went to the 27th Army, then it would definitely be a big deal for the first regiment directly under their third theater. talent loss.
"Just wait and see. After all, these little devils really have this ability now. If it were me, I would execute such a tempting action plan." Zhang Tianhai said with a smile, but his words were directed towards the Japanese army. The action plan was shown to be highly favorable.
Of course, this praise is from a purely military perspective - after all, the two armies are facing each other, and sometimes war is also an art. From the perspective of professional soldiers like them, when the war is going on, this cannot but be said. It’s an art in progress.
"Then if you were the commander, how would you deal with this sudden change?" Zhou Fangjie asked.
Listening to Zhou Fangjie's question, Zhang Tianhai suddenly heard what Xu Zuyi said to Chief Xu, "So what if we know their strategic intentions? Shouldn't we resist until the last moment and then retreat? The country is poor and weak. We have no other choice but to use our flesh and blood to resist the Japanese invaders."
"What else can we do? It's probably just to stop the troops and cover them up with the water and the soil! When we really can't withstand it, we can command the retreat." Zhang Tianhai told Xu Zuyi what Commander Xu meant.
War is not limited to local gains and losses in a city or a pool. What is important is to annihilate the enemy's effective forces and rely on positions to consume and destroy the enemy's elite troops.
There is no other strategy for the war of resistance except protracted resistance.
Are these major battles trying their best to consume the Japanese invaders' effective strength? Only if the effective strength of the Japanese army is greatly exhausted, they will be unable to attack and drag them back.
"Aren't you usually very clever? Why can't you do anything now?" Zhou Fangjie teased Zhang Tianhai.
"Do you think I'm Zhuge Liang? And you spread the beans and become an army." Zhang Tianhai said angrily, his face full of dissatisfaction.
"Forget it, I think you're at your wits end." Zhou Fangjie once again made a move that drove Zhang Tianhai crazy - contempt.
Zhang Tianhai took a deep breath and secretly told himself that he could not be as calm and calm as this guy.
"The initiative in the war is no longer in our hands, what else can you ask me to do? It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without straw..." Zhang Tianhai spread his hands and said helplessly.
"But this is a hypothesis..." Zhou Fangjie said helplessly.
"Assuming this is the case, it doesn't make much sense. We don't have the initiative on the battlefield... It's all the superiors who have the final say." Zhang Tianhai shrugged helplessly again.
"Okay..." Zhou Fangjie was defeated.
"However, we can predict the whereabouts of the Japanese army to prepare for combat. Especially regarding the Lanfeng battle." Zhang Tianhai changed the subject and said, "Come, come with me to my office."
Although he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Zhang Tianhai's gourd, Zhou Fangjie still followed in.
After Zhou Fangjie entered the regimental leader's office, Zhang Tianhai closed the door. Before closing the door, he did not forget to tell Wang Liang, "Adjutant Wang, no one is allowed to come in without my permission for a while!"
"Yes! Group seat!" Wang Liang responded.
…
The room was dark, and Zhang Tianhai turned on the light.
Under the dim light, there was a military map of city defense near Lanfeng County on Zhang Tianhai's desk.
"Old Zhang, what are you doing?" Zhou Fangjie approached the map and began to observe it.
"This map is probably my contribution to Lan Feng..." Zhang Tianhai lowered his voice and said.
On this map, in addition to the circle mark on the south city wall, the city defense headquarters is also marked with a circle.
Zhou Fangjie was not stupid and immediately understood the meaning of these circles.
"Zhang Yulin, you are crazy! Once you plant explosives here, if the news leaks out, the enemy only needs to send one agent, and all the officers in our regiment will die!" Zhou Fangjie lowered his voice and asked One sentence.
Zhang Tianhai shook his head slightly and said, "Theoretically, as long as it is done properly, this will be a great gift."
"Big gift?" Zhou Fangjie said in disbelief.
"Yes. It's a great gift. The city defense headquarters where our regiment headquarters is currently stationed is the most suitable headquarters. If the Japanese army comes in, I guess there is a high chance that they will use this headquarters as their headquarters." Zhang Tianhai said.
Before Zhou Fangjie could speak, Zhang Tianhai continued, "If this is the enemy's headquarters, and we blow it up in one fell swoop when we counterattack Lanfeng, plus the collapse of the southern city wall, do you think the counterattack has a chance of success?" How many?"
With that said, Zhang Tianhai turned his gaze to Zhou Fangjie with a deep look.
"Indeed, your move is very powerful. However, what I am more curious about is, why did you guess that Lanfeng would fall so quickly? What if the troops stationed in Lanfeng fought to the end and the entire Lanfeng city was destroyed? It's not necessarily that simple to plant a bomb under the city defense headquarters, right?" Zhou Fangjie's voice was full of doubts.
Would Zhang Tianhai say that there was a bastard named Gui Yongqing in history who abandoned Lanfeng without authorization, and then ordered Long Muhan's troops to defend Lanfeng? But in the end, even the birdman Long Muhan ran away?
For them at this time, everything has not happened yet, and they have used a large amount of explosive reserves in the group purely by prediction. This is probably a bit unjustifiable, even for Zhang Tianhai.
Zhang Tianhai cleared his throat, thought about the reason for trying to fool Zhou Fangjie, and then said, "The troops in the first theater are no better than the troops in the fifth theater. The troops in the fifth theater are mostly miscellaneous troops, which is good."
"But don't forget, the troops in the fifth theater have been established for a long time. Like the Yunnan Army who came up with reinforcements from the rear, they can be called the elite among the elite. Let's look at Sun Lianzhong's second army of the Northwest Army. The predecessors of the Group Army and the Seventh Army of the 21st Group Army of the Guangxi Army were already famous throughout the world during the Northern Expedition." When Zhang Tianhai said this, he couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth.
“But the troops in our first theater were all led by the Central Army, especially Yu Jishi’s 74th Army, which fought very well whether in Songhu or in the defense of Nanjing. "Zhou Fangjie's face looked a little embarrassed. Although he also knew that this was an objective fact, he had been living in this era and had a deep-rooted concept - the Central Military Forces are number one in the world!
"Not to mention Yu Jishi's 74th Army, it can be called the ace army. But our 71st Army and Gui Yongqing's 27th Army are different. These two armies are mostly new recruits. , a war has started, if the camp is bombed, it will be all over." Zhang Tianhai made up his reasons seriously.
"Okay! Since you have made your decision, let's carry it out! I hope there won't be a day when Lan Feng falls." Zhou Fangjie sighed, seemingly convinced by Zhang Tianhai.
"Yes." Zhang Tianhai nodded, then lowered his voice very seriously and said, "I will start preparing to implement this plan in two days. This secret plan can only be known to you and me by the senior leaders in the group."
