Chapter 1031 The Grand Strategy of the Fifth Theater!
"You are right. It is because there are many inactive people in the military that our Chinese soldiers are underestimated by the little devils."
Li Zhongren was filled with emotion, because didn't Liu Ying and his ilk appear under his command?
At this time, Dragon Boat Festival was trying to strike while the railway was hot: "If it doesn't work, just replace them."
Li Zhongren immediately waved his hand and said: "You are still young and don't understand what politics is. If these people could be replaced, I would have replaced them long ago. And this time I called them all here just to beat and beat them before the war.
Okay, let’s take advantage of the fact that the Japanese haven’t made a large-scale attack and study how to fight this battle!”
Speaking of this, Li Zhongren picked up the teaching stick on the table and pointed out to the Dragon Boat Festival: "After the defeat in the Battle of Nanjing, I and my colleagues on the staff drafted a plan based on the enemy situation, terrain and tasks faced by this theater.
Developed a battle plan.
The first period-(preventing enemy invasion)
1. The first-line corps that originally guarded the south bank of the Yellow River will still guard both sides of the Yellow River, focusing on Jinan and the areas west of it. Deploy powerful reserves near Jinan and Tai'an, and guard the banks of the Yellow River. As a last resort, ensure that all rear areas are protected.
The key point is not to allow the enemy to expand the area or threaten the flanks of our main force.
2. The first-line corps guarding the coast should connect various key points guarding the coast to prevent the enemy from landing, and place strong reserves in the areas between Zhucheng, Rizhao, and the East China Sea to maneuver and coordinate the direct defense forces on the coast to thwart the enemy's landing attempts.
When you have landed, you must also stick to the established fortification lines and do your best to prevent the enemy's development.
3. The second-line corps is located near Xuzhou, building defense fortifications near Xuzhou, and preparing to use the Jinpu and Longhai lines to support the first-line corps in its operations.
The second period-(battle near Yanzhou)
1. If the Yellow River Garrison Corps is faced with frontal pressure from the enemy from Changqing and its east side, it can retreat one by one to Laiwu, Tai'an, Feicheng, Xintai, and Dawenkou areas to occupy key points; and leave a large number of small troops north of the area.
, carry out guerrilla attacks and delay the enemy's southward advance.
The purpose of the previous section has been achieved, or if the enemy is pressed from the northwest flank of Changqing, it will be leveled. The East-A side should do its best to support and cover the retreat of the main force of the corps to the canal line north of Nanyang Lake, reorganize the situation, and focus on Jining.
, prepare for the battle, and at the same time be alert to Shouzhang and Fan counties.
2. If the part east of Jinan cannot retreat to the west of Jinpu Road, it can retreat to Boshan, Tai'an, Xintai, and the mountainous areas north and south of Surabaya in order to assist the main force in the battle and flank the enemy.
3. When the main force of the Japanese army lands on the coast, or the Yellow River garrison retreats to the south of Tai'an, the main force of the coast garrison should retreat to the lines of Rizhao, Juxian, and Yishui in sequence, and the left wing should contact friendly forces near Xintai and Surabaya.
Cover the right wing of the battle zone. Part of it, acting as if it were invincible, still defends the coast near the East China Sea.
4. When the first-line corps retreats, the second-line corps should advance to the vicinity of Zouxian with powerful troops to indirectly support the retreat of the Yellow River garrison and directly prevent the enemy from going south along the Jinpu line. The remaining troops should still be controlled near Xuzhou.
5. In the battle near Yanzhou, the Zouxian and Jining corps and the guerrilla forces near Surabaya and Xintai supported each other, maintaining the external line posture, focusing on the left, and launching a fierce counterattack against the enemies advancing south.
The third period (battle near Xuzhou)
1. In the battle near Yanzhou, if something goes wrong and the enemy breaks into the plains west of Nanyang Lake from the line of the canal, or the enemy presses westward from the coast and crosses the line of Ganyu to the west, or the enemy crosses the Yellow River from the area west of the canal,
, the corps affiliated to this theater should act as follows:
One part of the corps along the canal retreated to Shangqiu to defend the left wing of the battle zone; the main force gathered in the area on the west side of Weishan Lake, preparing to enter and exit the southwest;
The regiment facing Jinpu Road retreated to the area between Xiao County and Jinpu Road in the southwest of Xuzhou, preparing to move in and out to the northwest and northeast; while the 22nd Group Army was a reserve force located in the Jiangsu, Henan, and Shandong border areas to prepare for response.
The 68th Army in the 1st theater is located in Shangqiu, Kaocheng, and Lanfeng areas in eastern Henan to defend the Longhai Road and coordinate with the 3rd Group Army in southwest Shandong in the 5th theater to defend the south of the Yellow River."
Li Zhongren finished speaking and then looked at Duanwu.
Duanwu smacked his lips and said, "Old Li, you forgot someone."
Li Zhongren was surprised: "Who is it?"
Duanwu said: "Han Fuju."
Li Zhongren was still surprised, because what happened to Han Fuju? He was the deputy commander of the fifth theater.
But at this time, Duanwu smiled and said: "What will you do if this old gentleman suddenly withdraws?"
Li Zhongren said in disbelief: "This is not possible. You may not know this Han Fuju yet. He is quite open-minded and ambitious. Of course, the most important thing is that he dares to put pressure on the Chairman
, I like this about him, haha!”
"············"
Duanwu was speechless and thought to himself: "How do you still like him when you are crying? This old guy is secretly still in contact with the Japanese."
But it was obvious that Li Zhongren would not believe what he said. Duanwu could only say: "I said I am not afraid of ten thousand, I am afraid of what happens. If others get out of the way, your Yanzhou battle will be stopped."
Li Zhongren thought for a while and said: "Although your worries are unnecessary, Han Fuju, as the deputy commander of the fifth theater, cannot escape without a fight. But this time he comes, I will have a good talk with him. Before that
If there are any conflicts, let's let them go. After all, this time is a national war. We must put aside our past grudges and cooperate sincerely, only in this way can we defeat foreign enemies."
Duanwu nodded and said: "Then you tell me, if he comes this time according to my wishes, then click!"
Dragon Boat Festival made a killing gesture.
"You kid, why do you want to kill everyone? If you keep talking nonsense, I will kill you first."
Li Zhongren said angrily, because the death of his goddaughter is still unclear. Although Duan Wu's words are reasonable, there is still no substantial evidence.
Therefore, Li Zhongren accepted Yan Wushuang's death. However, he had a thorough understanding of the human nature of the Dragon Boat Festival, and he was ready to kill anyone he suspected.
And whether his goddaughter died like this, who can tell clearly at this time?
Therefore, in Li Zhongren's heart, he couldn't help but have a desire to protect Han Fuju. This man could not be killed by Duan Wu, otherwise if Han Fuju died, all his subordinates would turn against him? It would be detrimental to the overall situation.
And he didn't believe that Han Fuju would go against his will. After all, he was the deputy commander of the fifth theater!
Thinking of this, Li Zhongren changed the topic and said: "It's getting late, let's go and have dinner! We have a meeting in the evening."
Li Zhongren said that he was going to take Duanwu and others to the restaurant for dinner, but at this moment, laughter came from outside the door: "Hahaha, Brother Li, it seems that I came at the right time. I will catch up with the meal as soon as I arrive."
