Chapter 43: Military meeting on the eve of the battle
Luo Zhuoying was surprised to meet an acquaintance, but Zhu Jiahua and Meng Da were shocked by the figures of six girls on the hillside. One of them was a girl wearing a white tight-fitting dress. Needless to say, everyone knew that she was the owner of these girls, but
The five little girls standing next to her were only twelve or thirteen years old, and their appearance was almost indistinguishable.
Luo Zhuoying said in surprise: "This is my landlady in Xiajia Village, Longhu Mountain. What is she doing here?"
"Xiajia Village?" Meng Da looked at Luo Zhuoying curiously: "There is a Xiajia Village in Longhu Mountain in Yingtan?"
"Yeah, it won't be involved with your family, right?" Luo Zhuoying suddenly remembered that Meng Da's adoptive father was also named Xia, and said it to the young man teasingly.
"They all have skills!" Meng Da did not answer directly, because when the six girls started to go down the mountain, they knew from their skills that they were not ordinary people.
"Longhu Mountain is the foundation mountain of Taoism. Men, women and children in Xiajia Village all know it twice." Luo Zhuoying laughed, pointed at the girls and said: "Add them to your Eighteen Butterfly Team, I guarantee that
His kung fu will be worse than Yu'er's."
"Oh?" Meng Da stared at the girls curiously. Those little girls were so cute, they looked like quintuplets.
"Her name is Xia Ying. You see, the peony flower on her left arm was there since she was born." Luo Zhuoying was familiar with the girl on the hillside, and he was quite surprised to see his landlord's daughter here.
"Peony?" Meng Da and Wang Yun'er both trembled. They couldn't believe it. Meng Da breathed rapidly and didn't care to hold up Wang Yun'er's sleeves in front of everyone, revealing the beautiful and spectacular peony flower.
.
"Eh!" Luo Zhuoying looked at Wang Yun'er in surprise: "Are you and her biological sisters? What a coincidence!"
"Five golden flowers!" Meng Da murmured to himself, thinking about what he found in the crypt with excitement.
"Report! Chief Xue Yue sent an urgent telegram. He ordered Chief Luo and Commander Meng to rush to Xiajiacun. The battle in Wuhan was fierce, and the Japanese army may march towards Nanchang." Xiao Hou walked quickly and told Fengdie that he had received the telegram.
come out.
"Order the guard battalion, cavalry detachment and shotgun brigade to go out at the same time to ensure the safety of the mentor and Commander Luo!" Meng Da no longer cared about talking about the girl on the hillside, and hurriedly got the car ready to set off towards Longhu Mountain.
"yes!"
In order to carry out the Wuhan operation, the Japanese base camp concentrated the strength of 14 divisions in central China. Directly participating in the Wuhan operation were the 2nd Army and the 11th Group Army, a total of 9 divisions, about 250,000 people, as well as the Navy's 3rd Fleet, Aviation
Corps, etc., there are about 1 ship of various types and about 300 aircraft of various types.
The ** troops, air force, and navy participating in the Wuhan Defense War comprised a total of 14 group armies, 50 corps, about 0 combat aircraft, more than 30 ships, and a total strength of nearly 1.1 million people. Each army group began to use Poyang separately in June
Lake, Dabie Mountains and other natural barriers, stepped up the construction of fortifications and made defense preparations.
"The main force of the Japanese 11th Army attacked along the south bank of the Yangtze River, the 6th Division of the 11th Army attacked along the north bank of the Yangtze River, and the Japanese 2nd Army attacked along the northern foothills of the Dabie Mountains. The three Japanese armies aggressively outflanked the main force.
decisive battle!"
At the former enemy headquarters in Xiajiacun, Xue Yue was describing the situation on the Wuhan battlefield to the Ninth War Zone. Meng Da was very surprised after hearing this. The number and equipment of the army were not bad. Was he still afraid of the little Japs? But he saw that most of them
The officer thought silently and looked out the window boredly.
"Xia Ying!" Meng Da was surprised. They had just arrived in Xiajia Village. They didn't expect the girl from Xiajia Village to run back so quickly.
Zhu Jiahua, who was sitting next to Meng Da, smiled slightly. He knew that his student had already developed a liking for the little girl.
"Commander Meng!"
Xue Yue shouted, which startled Mengda. He suddenly stood up and asked politely: "Sir, please give the order."
"I will give you some ammunition in the hope that your troops will continue to attack the Japanese troops on the south bank of the Yangtze River." Xue Yue looked at Meng Da seriously, knowing that the young man would agree.
"Yes, as long as there is enough ammunition, my troops will not leave the Yangtze River line." Meng Da thought to himself: "What I lack is ammunition. As long as there is enough ammunition, the civilian army is guaranteed to grow up in the battle."
"I will leave Panyang County on the edge of Panyang Lake to your defense. Do you dare to agree?" Seeing Meng Da's willingness to agree, Xue Yue had an idea and posed a difficult problem.
“Mr.
ammunition."
"Panyang County is a land of plenty, and the Japs will definitely attack with heavy troops. You have to be more careful with their planes. If you lose the county seat, you may not be safe!" Xue Yue warned carefully. If Meng Da changed his tone, he would not do anything.
Hesitantly, he switched to the troops of the Ninth War Zone. It was great that the civilian army could attack the enemy on the south bank of the Yangtze River. It was too much to let them defend Panyang County.
"Yes, the Japanese aircraft are very annoying!" Meng Da nodded again, but his determination remained unchanged and he said cautiously: "If you can give me some anti-aircraft machine gun bullets, anti-aircraft artillery shells will be better!"
Meng Da didn't ask directly, and he knew that ** probably didn't either. Xue Yue laughed loudly: "I will meet your request!"
"Oh?" Meng Da looked at Xue Yue in surprise, he couldn't believe his ears.
"To tell you the truth, the Soviet Union happened to provide us with a batch of ammunition, but I had no use for the anti-aircraft shells and anti-aircraft machine gun bullets. The Ninth Theater Zone does not have these weapons!"
"God help me!" Meng Da exhaled in surprise and made a strange move mischievously.
"Quack, quack, quack!" The girl who was eavesdropping on the meeting outside the window couldn't help laughing when she saw Meng Da's strange appearance.
"Hahahaha!" Everyone in the conference room burst into hearty laughter. Perhaps they were infected by the little girl. Everyone laughed so hard that they turned forward and backward and covered their bellies. Xue Yue couldn't hold back his laughter and leaned on his chair.
I couldn't breathe for a long time.
"This kid!" Zhu Jiahua couldn't help but push his student angrily: "This is a military meeting, how can it be decent?"
"Very good!" Xue Yue did not blame. The military meeting was so depressing that people felt depressed. Meng Da's participation suddenly changed the uncomfortable atmosphere.
The Ninth War Zone commanded an army to be responsible for the defense of Jiangnan. Chen Cheng handed over the heavy responsibility to Xue Yue, and the smart commander used the civilian army to solve many problems. The officers present had to admire that Meng Da dared to provoke such a heavy defense task.
! Luo Zhuoying asked worriedly: "You only have four infantry divisions and one artillery division, and you still have to defend Kaihua County, Wuyuan County and Jingdezhen. Is it possible?"
"The mountain man has his own clever plan!" Meng Da smiled strangely, stood up, walked behind Xue Yue, pointed at the military map and said, "Everyone, please take a look! To the west of Panyang County is Panyang Lake. The Japs will definitely use warships to transport troops."
"Yes, because of this, this battle is very difficult to fight." Luo Zhuoying had the same judgment as Meng Da, but he was unable to defend Panyang County.
"Instead of being beaten passively, it is better to let the enemy in!"
"ah!"
Everyone in the conference room was frightened. The chairman of the committee issued a death order to ensure that Panyang County could not be lost. But Meng Da wanted to let the little devil in. Wasn't this the land of plenty and plenty of land given to the Japanese army? Xue Yue frowned tightly.
They were tugging at each other, but he still patiently let the young man continue talking.
"What I said about letting him in is to let the little devil walk from the warship to land. As long as he dares to come, I want him to never come back!"
Luo Zhuoying shook his head and asked, "Where are your troops?"
"How much troops does Chief Luo think the Japanese army will invest here?" Meng Da asked slyly.
"Speak less and there is a division!"
"A Japanese A-type division has about 28,000 men. My independent division has 15,000 men. Including the special agent battalion, guard battalion and cavalry detachment, there are less than 20,000 men. Do you think I can defeat such a force?
Japanese army?”
"This -" Luo Zhuoying was shocked. When fighting with the Japanese army, he dared to be less than the opponent's troops. But he could not guarantee that the combat effectiveness of the civilian army was unknown, but the independent division had fought tough battles in Hangzhou.
Team.
"I understand!" Seeing that everyone was full of doubts, Zhu Jiahua said with a smile: "What you mean is that the little devils will not concentrate a division to attack at once. What you will do is defeat them individually and concentrate your superior forces to eat some of them.
, the situation will naturally be favorable to the civilian army."
"Teacher is still a teacher, and the old ones are the hot ones!" Meng Da smiled and put a high hat on his teacher's head.
"The Japanese army has about one ship of various types. Can you handle the huge artillery fire?" Zhu Jiahua was not happy about the high hat given by the students, but asked worriedly.
"Didn't Commander Luo say that I have a division of artillery?"
"Ah!" Zhu Jiahua looked at Meng Da in surprise: "If you pull out all the artillery, aren't you afraid that your base area will be attacked by surprise?"
"Each division of my army has an artillery regiment. Kaihua County and Wuyuan County leave two divisions for defense. Two artillery regiments are enough!" Meng Da was very confident. He smiled in front of everyone and said: "Everyone still has
Any doubts?"
"You moved me. I thank you on behalf of all the soldiers in the Ninth War Zone!" Xue Yue understood. In order to complete the defense task he assigned, Meng Da pulled out the two best troops.
"Sir, what you said is serious!" Meng Da put away his smile and said with a murderous look in his eyes: "Although I am not a soldier, I know that I also have a responsibility to protect my family and the country. I have never been merciless in killing the Japanese. I hope that everyone will share the same hatred.
There is not a single coward in the Ninth War Zone!"
"When the country is in crisis, it is time for us to stand up. Now I give an order: If you are afraid, kill! If you flee in front of the battle, kill! If you delay the opportunity to fight, kill! If you defect to the enemy, kill! If you leak military information, kill!"
Anyone who violates battlefield disciplines will be killed!..." Xue Yue's ten disciplines are rattled, without a single extra word, without any room for maneuver. If you violate any of them, you will be dead, and it will be "kill with a knife!"
