After explaining Yi Liangpin, Guo Bingxun wanted to say something more about the particularity of the Korean battlefield. But looking at the time on his watch, he finally swallowed his words. However, Guo Bingxun told Yi Liangpin to go to his place after the meeting.
One trip. Regarding the Korean battlefield, I still have some separate things to discuss with him.
After the deployment for the Korean battlefield has been explained, it means that all the deployments for this battle have been issued to the hands of various senior commanders. The only ones left that have not been reported to those present here are the military and political officials in various strategic directions.
What was explained was the time when the final attack was launched.
After Guo Bingxun explained the entire deployment of the battle, Yang Zhen, who had not said a word since entering the venue, stood up and walked to a blackboard hanging in the conference room, sketched a simple world map with a few strokes, and then
I wrote a few lines on the edge of the map.
Then he turned around and looked at all the senior generals present and said: "Take stock of the equipment of your respective troops, especially the heavy equipment, how much of it is produced by ourselves? How much of the heavy equipment in our hands is second-hand and unwanted by others?
Goods? I'm thinking about how quickly our troops can expand and heavy weapons can be put in place."
"On the battlefield in Western Europe, the United States and Britain lost more than 2,000 tanks in two months. For us, this kind of loss is absolutely crippling, and can even be said to be irreparable. For them,
On the whole, it is not a big deal. The Americans replenished all the supplies within a month, and even shipped a large amount of supplementary equipment to France and the United Kingdom, so that they could be replenished at any time if they were lost."
"A U.S. armored division conducted continuous assaults after landing, and 300% of its tanks were destroyed. However, the division's combat effectiveness and assault capabilities have not been reduced at all. Where did these tanks that exceeded the establishment come from?
What’s more, they can make losses at any time and replenish them at any time.”
"The reason why they can do this is because behind them, the Americans have strong industrial manufacturing capabilities. They can replenish these battle-damaged tanks and all equipment in the shortest possible time.
For the United States and Britain, it’s not that they can’t afford to lose equipment, but they can’t afford to lose people.”
"During the entire Normandy landings, the United States and Britain invested more than 5,300 ships, including 13 battleships, 47 cruisers, 134 destroyers, and more than 4,100 landing ships.
, there are also more than 5,000 transport fleets. Within a month, they landed 170,000 trucks and nearly 600,000 tons of combat supplies."
"During the Normandy landings alone, the United States and Britain dispatched more than 13,000 combat aircraft. Among them, more than 5,800 bombers, 4,900 fighter jets, and more than 3,000 transport aircraft and gliders. In order to achieve airdrops
Two US airborne divisions and one British airborne division dispatched 1,800 transport aircraft and 1,200 gliders."
"Not only did we airborne more than 35,000 paratroopers in one night, we also airborne 504 artillery pieces, 110 light tanks, and more than a thousand tons of supplies. At the same time, the U.S. military was in the Pacific
On the battlefield, the battle for the Mariana Islands is still going on, and a large number of naval and air forces have also been invested."
"In the subsequent battle of Caen, facing the strength of a German armored division, thousands of bombers were dispatched, dropping thousands of tons of high-explosive bombs. Hundreds of heavy artillery were concentrated, and the force was deployed 24 hours a day.
Intermittent fire covered the attack. Killing thousands of German troops, the amount of ammunition consumed was hundreds or thousands of times that of ours."
"And we airborne two paratrooper divisions. Not counting supplies and heavy weapons, we can only scrape together enough aircraft. The Americans are fighting fiercely in the Asian battlefield and are holding back a large number of naval and air forces.
, it can also invest a large number of naval cover landing troops in Western Europe at the same time, and its large-caliber naval guns control the entire Normandy beach within a range of 30 kilometers."
"Let's not talk about the performance of the US and British armies on the ground, let alone their shortcomings in relying solely on firepower superiority. What I want to talk about today is the national strength of these two countries to ensure that they can attack on both sides at the same time.
Such a huge amount of troops and equipment were invested in each battlefield, and the amount of ammunition consumed was huge."
"This cannot be achieved by how much manpower the country has, nor how many resources and mines the country has. What they rely on is the developed industrial strength of the United States and Britain, especially the ability to turn steel into equipment.
manufacturing capabilities.”
"You have never been very clear about why the launch of this battle has been delayed until now. I can tell you directly today that, in addition to other reasons, the amount of heavy equipment required for our implementation of this battle has been
Unable to meet the needs, it has been postponed to this moment."
"In order to prepare for the Western European campaign and give priority to replenishing supplies to the Soviets who were carrying out full-scale counter-offensive operations, the Americans stopped providing tank assistance to us since the end of the last battle. It was not until they established a firm foothold in Western Europe that they resumed providing assistance.
And they are mainly second-hand goods from Germans. Now when Americans catch a cold, we get colds and fevers."
"The U.S. and British forces can dispatch more than 4,000 landing ships for a landing operation. This is because the Americans also need to invest a large number of landing ships in the Pacific battlefield. But if we want to carry out a landing operation, we have to
We can only rely on motorboats and sailboats.”
"And except for two small gunboats, there are basically no ships that can provide fire cover. A few years since we captured Harbin, we have not stopped manufacturing steamers. But over the past few years, we have tried our best to produce a total of five
More than ten ships. And they are only ships with wooden hulls of 100 tons and without any armor protection."
"There are also combat aircraft. People can give them whatever they are willing to give. We can only passively accept it without any room for bargaining. The Americans have always refused to provide us with their latest fighter jets. Our aviation force can only use second-rate fighters to compete with the Japanese army.
Aviation combat.”
"Although we have made great achievements in industrial construction in recent years, we still cannot meet the demand for various equipment required by the military. Our current steel production is only a fraction of others. Our aircraft and other heavy-duty equipment
The production of equipment is not even a fraction of what others produce. Our tank production in a few months is not even comparable to what others produce in a day."
"Some of you may say in your heart that our current situation is already good. At least it is much better than Chongqing, which cannot even make artillery. But I tell you this is far from enough, because
We still rely heavily on foreign aid, and our industry is simply unable to meet our own needs for modern warfare."
"What I am saying to you today is not to state how powerful the Americans are and how Americans cannot be offended. Not to mention that they are still our allies for the time being, but our opponents today are Americans.
As a Chinese soldier, I should fight them without any hesitation."
"Because you and I are both soldiers, it is our duty to protect our country. No matter how powerful the enemy that invades our country's territory is and how developed its industry is, once it threatens the life and death of our nation and threatens our territory
To ensure the integrity of our country, we must dare to fight them at any time and at any place, regardless of who they are."
"While standing, we must use our flesh and blood to become the Great Steel Wall to protect our nation and territory. Even if we lie down, we must turn into a barrier to protect our nation and nation. This is our duty as soldiers, and history
The mission given to us.”
"What I tell you today is by no means telling you not to fight the Americans, let alone making you fear the Americans. I don't care who my opponent is, and how strong the national power is behind him, as long as he dares to
If they invade us, I will fight them to the end."
"I'm just telling you the significance of this battle and what our country needs most right now. The entire Southern Manchuria, which the Japanese have worked hard for decades, is China's largest industrial zone. Its industrial system and industrial production capacity are...
It is incomparable to any place in China. The industry we have barely built up in Northern Manchuria over the years is even more incomparable."
"Whether we can completely seize the entire South Manchu industry is related to whether we can build our own strong national defense industry in the future. Whether our humiliation today will not be repeated on our descendants. Let us who have thousands of
With a history of civilization and a population of hundreds of millions, the key is for a huge country to gain the wings of modern civilization."
"Our ancestors once created a glorious history and civilization, and led the world into modern civilization with the four great inventions. We Chinese have never lacked the enthusiasm and command to build our own country. As long as we can work hard, we will be strong in the near future.
Surpassing the Americans in the future is not a simple dream. The efforts of our generation today are for a better harvest tomorrow."
"Now, as the commander-in-chief of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Forces, I order you to take back all the factories that the Japanese built by plundering the blood and blood of the Chinese people since the Sino-Japanese War at all costs and give them to us.
This nation, which is currently suffering, will be given a pair of wings to soar towards a strong and prosperous country."
"I have only one sentence for you regarding this battle. As long as the entire South Manchuria industrial base can be preserved and returned to the Chinese hands intact. Not to mention Wang Xiaoming's five divisions, even if our entire army is exhausted, they will be there.
No matter what, if we fight them all, our brother troops will still liberate the whole of China."
"But the industrial base in South Manchuria has been destroyed. If we want to rebuild it again, it will make our nation pay an unbearable heavy price, and it will also slow down our pace of catching up with the world by decades. Because we cannot be like the West.
Like the great powers, they relied on the huge wealth accumulated over hundreds of years of colonial plunder to achieve their own industrialization and modernization."
"As a big country, it is also a weak country. Most of the territory of the Chinese people is still stuck in the feudal small-peasant era. If we want to step into the ranks of a modern industrial country and catch up with the achievements of today's Americans, let us
Future generations will no longer have to endure the suffering we endure today."
"All we can give is our sweat, even our lives. Remember the mission entrusted to you by the times, use all your strength to fulfill the expectations of the motherland and the people, and completely integrate the entire South Manchu Industrial Zone
Seize it back. People across the country will watch our performance in this battle and whether we can win the final victory in this strategic decisive battle."
After Yang Zhen's words, all the cadres attending the meeting already understood the decision made by the headquarters. All the senior cadres attending the meeting stood up in unison. They looked at No. 1 and No. 3 with serious expressions in front of them in silence.
