The three of them did not speak, but looking at the Jinling military map placed on the desk and looking at the dark circles under their eyes, Zhou Weiguo estimated that something might really happen today.
Commander Yu pointed at the map and stood up: "How do you know Jinling can't be defended?"
What?
Zhou Weiguo trembled all over. Without thinking, he knew that he asked Hu Yong to build boats and bamboo rafts to let people in the military department know.
Damn it, there is a spy in the battalion headquarters.
Who is it? Don't let me find out. If I find out, I will shoot you with a black gun and kill you.
"Look at what we are doing. Tell us your opinion. Why do you think Jinling can't hold on? You actually started buying boats and bamboo rafts." Mr. Wang's expression didn't look like anger, but looked like he was asking for advice.
Could it be that these three people also know that Jinling can't be defended? Forget it, just die. The worst thing is that you can still shoot me after I have to say it three times. Zhou Weiguo walked to the map and pointed at it; "Shanghai hundreds of thousands
No one can stop the Japanese attack, let alone the city of Jinling. Shanghai was defeated and we were able to evacuate safely. However, Jinling is a last-ditch battle. If we fail, there will be no retreat. The Yangtze River will then be our biggest obstacle to evacuation."
"We have the terrain advantage." Commander Feng pointed at the surrounding terrain and tapped it expressionlessly.
The terrain advantage is not the key to victory. The key to victory is the current weapons and equipment, at least in this battle.
No matter how good the terrain is, you can't stop the Japanese army's indiscriminate bombing. If the air force can gain air supremacy, maybe this battle can still be fought. The problem is that the current air force has almost lost all its losses, and the navy is also in Jiangyin.
The entire army was wiped out.
There is no way to defend the sea route, no way to defend the air, the army's weapons are inferior to humans, and the artillery fire is inferior to humans. How can we block the Japanese attack? How can we use our own flesh and blood to block the Japanese bullets that have been prepared for many years?
I only bought two out of the three, and the remaining one was not as good as others. Not to mention, the hundreds of thousands of troops guarding Jinling were all improvised. They came down from the Battle of Shanghai. Some of them were wrong and they didn't even have supplies.
That's enough. It's not a joke to want to defend Jinling City with such a force.
"I'm afraid you three masters also know that Jinling cannot be defended. Otherwise, instead of asking me, you would send me to the Military Justice Department for disturbing the morale of the army."
He kept asking but refused to hold himself accountable. Zhou Weiguo estimated in his heart that the three people in front of him were sensible people.
What else can be said? Commander Yu raised his eyes and looked at the two men: "Look, it's exactly the same situation as we analyzed."
It was a false alarm. He thought he was going to cause trouble for him, but it seemed not. Zhou Weiguo stood there with a sigh of relief.
He could see the helplessness in the eyes of the three people.
Commander Yu's typical background was extremely tough. He typed the map; "Jinling should not be defended. That man surnamed Tang had to say that at the military meeting. Otherwise, hundreds of thousands of troops would not rush to fight."
.If the losses are heavy this time, his surname Tang will be the sinner."
He was the only one who dared to say that. If it were anyone else, I'm afraid he would have to go to the Military Justice Department to drink tea and explain.
"Okay, it's none of your business, go and lead your troops." Commander Yu pointed at Zhou Weiguo after complaining. He asked Zhou Weiguo to come today just to hear why Zhou Weiguo thought Jinling could not be defended.
But now, Zhou Weiguo's words are almost the same as the analysis of the three of them. Nothing can compare with it. The Japanese army has concentrated the strength of several divisions, and also has the assistance of the navy and aviation.
It was completely unstoppable and could only temporarily block the Japanese attack.
After Zhou Weiguo left, Commander Yu thought for a while and said: "No matter what other troops do, our wounded, after being injured again, send them to Jiangbei. They are our lifeblood and must not be lost. In addition, secretly repair two ships."
, send it to Zhou Weiguo, maybe our evacuated troops may follow him to evacuate."
Commander Yu's words made the two people present nod. Commander Wang stretched out his finger and pointed at the map; "It must be hidden and must not be known to others, otherwise it will bring us trouble."
After Zhou Weiguo came out of the military headquarters, he returned directly to the battalion headquarters. Two days later, the Japanese forwards began to fight with the troops on Nanjing's first line of defense.
Ahead, troops were beginning to retreat. Zhou Weiguo looked at the sparsely evacuating troops down the hillside towards Jiangling City. He could only take out a cigarette and light it, then sit on the ground and stare at the evacuating troops below in a daze.
The special agent battalion is a reserve force and is not currently on the battlefield, so the current army is still in a state of rest.
"The 51st Division had a firefight with the Japanese army yesterday. I heard that the fighting was quite fierce. Commander Wang personally led his men there." Jiang Yue walked to Zhou Weiguo and sat down to talk about the situation.
Zhou Weiguo knew this well. Two squadrons of the Japanese army broke through the defensive position of a brigade of the Sichuan Army and appeared directly on the side of the 51st Division. After receiving the news, Commander Wang immediately ordered a counterattack to prepare for this force that might threaten the 51st Division.
The Japanese troops in the division were defeated.
Yesterday afternoon, the roar of artillery could be faintly heard, and now, the battle is still going on. It seems that the Japanese army wants to stare at it like a nail.
"Tell me, when can we go up?" Jiang Yue lit a match and lit a cigarette and turned to ask Zhou Weiguo, who was still silent next to him.
Zhou Weiguo looked at the earthy gray road formed in the green shade at the foot of the mountain, shrugged and fell to the cold ground; "I don't know, but judging from the military headquarters, we won't go up it for the time being."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of horses neighing and the footsteps of someone dismounting from behind made Zhou Weiguo look back slightly. The messenger from the military headquarters had arrived.
The ordering soldier held down the box cannon on his waist and ran all the way to him and saluted: "Battle Commander Zhou, the Army Commander wants you to come over immediately. You have a mission."
Zhou Weiguo got up from the ground and looked at the orderly soldier who seemed a little busy in front of him. He took off the kettle and handed it to him to take a few sips. "Do you know what it is?"
The orderly soldier took a sip from the kettle, raised his head and thought for a while, "They should be backing up. I don't know the specific situation. The commander seems to be in a hurry. He just asked me to inform you to come over immediately."
"Tell the commander that I will be there right away." Zhou Weiguo took the kettle from the messenger and handed it back to him. Zhou Weiguo motioned to the messenger to leave first and he would go later.
As soon as the messenger left, Xu Hu was about to drive. Zhou Weiguo looked at Xu Hu who was about to drive. He stretched out his hand to stop Xu Hu and said, "You don't have to go. Do you have a new mission?"
New mission?
Xu Hu stopped what he was doing and looked at Zhou Weiguo with a confused look on his face and said, "Please give me your instructions, battalion commander, Xu Hu will do whatever I can."
