When Yue Weihan and Deng Gong walked down the gangway of the special plane, General Wei Lihuang, General Huang Jie, General Zuo and other senior generals were already waiting at the runway. After saluting and exchanging greetings, Yue Weihan immediately held a meeting in the conference room of Cangkou Airport.
A high-level military meeting of the field army was held and the latest instructions of the Communist Party of China were conveyed at the meeting.
***The combat areas of each field army have been newly divided.
As of early April 33, General Peng's First Field Army had completed its reorganization. After reorganization, the first field army was under the jurisdiction of ten group armies. Each group army was under the jurisdiction of 8 motorized infantry divisions, 1 heavy artillery division and 1 tank.
Each motorized infantry division has 3 motorized infantry regiments, 1 tank regiment, 1 automobile regiment and 1 105mm howitzer regiment.
In addition, the Field Army Headquarters directly administers 1 Konglong Division, 1 Special Operations Division and 2 Aviation Divisions.
The garrison areas of the First Field Army are Jiangsu, Anhui, Henan, Hebei, Hubei, Shandong and the four northeastern provinces. The combat targets are the remnants of the Kwantung Army in the Liaodong Peninsula and the Northern Manchu Mountains. Although the Kwantung Army at this time has lost most of its troops
Heavy equipment, and complete loss of logistical supplies, but still has more than a million troops, trapped beasts still fighting, still cannot be underestimated.
Mr. Ye's Second Field Army has also completed its reorganization. After reorganization, the Second Field Army has 8 group armies, 1 airborne division, 1 special operations division and 2 aviation divisions. The organization of each group army is the same as that of the first field army.
They are basically the same. In fact, the organization of the four major field armies and group armies of the Communist Party of China has basically been standardized.
The garrison areas of the Second Field are Shanghai, Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi, Taiwan and Guangdong.
The Second Field's combat target is still the Southern Army entrenched in Nanyang. Currently, the Second Field has formed a semi-encirclement situation on the Indochina Peninsula, the headquarters of the Southern Army, from Siam, Guangxi, and Guangdong. In order to avoid unnecessary casualties,
The Communist Party did not order the second field to launch a general offensive, but still adopted a long-term siege as the main strategy.
General Xue's Third Field Army also has 8 group armies, 1 airborne division, 1 special operations division and 2 aviation divisions.
The garrison areas of Sanye are Sichuan, Xikang, Shaanxi, Gansu, Shanxi, Ningxia, ***, Qinghai, ***, Chahar and ***. At this stage, the only combat targets are Meng Sui, General Yoshio Shinozuka.
The Meng-Sui Front Army has 2 tank divisions, 8 mixed brigades and 4 cavalry divisions, with a strength of about 100,000.
However, after annihilating Yoshio Shinozuka's Mengsui Front, the Sanye still had the obligation to recapture Ulianghai and Yili and other territories that were historically ceded to Tsarist Russia by the Manchu and Qing government, even though Chairman Mao and the Party Central Committee did not attend the Supreme Military Conference.
It is clearly stated, but everyone can see that in the near future, the Sanye will definitely send troops to Siberia.
After the German invasion and division, Russia's national strength, military strength, scientific research and industrial manufacturing capabilities have all suffered a serious decline. Now it is firmly tied to the German tank and has been deeply trapped in the Balkans.
In the quagmire of war on the peninsula, under the current situation, Russia has no time to take care of the Far East, Central Asia and the entire Siberia.
In fact, Zhukov's Soviet guerrillas have launched a counterattack in Central Asia and captured the northwest region of Kazakhstan. Zhukov has even sent a "request message" to Chairman Mao, requesting China to support the formation of the Soviet Federation in the northwest of Kazakhstan.
Provisional government to lead the resistance struggle of the entire "Soviet Union".
However, Chairman Mao did not agree to Zhukov's request because China is still unable to mobilize troops to help the Soviet Red Army launch a large-scale counterattack. If it rashly supports the Soviet Red Army in forming a provisional government in Kazakhstan, it is likely to cause Russia's strategic focus to shift eastward and from
Europe dispatched heavy troops into Central Asia.
The organization of Yue Weihan's Fourth Field Army has not changed. It still has 8 group armies, 1 airborne division, 1 special operations division, 1 army aviation division, 8 aviation divisions and the naval corps. However, in order to ensure the landing on the Japanese mainland,
Successfully, all 16 infantry divisions under the 3rd and 8th Group Armies were converted into heavy infantry divisions.
The main force of each heavy infantry division is 1 infantry brigade, 1 armored brigade and 1 artillery brigade. The infantry brigade has 3 infantry regiments, and the armored brigade has 2 armored regiments and 1 self-propelled artillery regiment.
The artillery brigade has 1 anti-aircraft machine gun battalion, 1 anti-aircraft artillery battalion, 1 combat defense artillery battalion, 2 105mm howitzer regiments and 1 155mm howitzer regiment.
In addition, there are engineering regiments, medical regiments, automobile regiments, special operations groups and communications groups directly under the division. Each heavy infantry troop has a strength of up to 25,000 people!
Song Xilian, Huo Kuizhang, Dai Anlan, Peng Bisheng, Gao Shuxun and other commanders were envious of the fact that the 3rd and 8th Army had taken the lead in changing their uniforms, but they had nothing to say.
Let’s not talk about Liu Yi’s 3rd Army. They went on an expedition to Burma, raided Luzon, landed in Taiwan, and the second battle of Songhu. Each time they were tough battles, each time they fought extremely beautifully. The change of uniforms can be said to be what everyone expected.
The change of uniforms of the 8th Group Army is also speechless, because President Su fought so beautifully in Jinzhou Bay. It was almost the power of one group army that defeated the entire Kwantung Army. Such a brilliant record, both
Even the 3rd Army pales in comparison.
In the conference room, Yue Weihan glanced around and saw Deng Gong, General Wei Lihuang, Huang Jie and General Zuo lined up on the left and right, followed by Song Xilian, Huo Kuizhang, Liu Yi, Dai Anlan, Peng Bisheng, Gao Shuxun,
Among the commanders of the eight armies, including General Xu and General Su, the last person to sit was General Chen Shaokuan, Commander-in-Chief of the Navy.
"Please take a seat." Yue Weihan pressed his hand softly, and everyone immediately sat down in unison.
Only then did Yue Weihan sit down. Deng Gong first conveyed the latest instructions of the Communist Party of China. Then Yue Weihan directly cut into the topic. The commanders of the eight major armies immediately cheered up, because next, the four fields will definitely have to
We have launched a counterattack on the Japanese mainland, and we can no longer let others take over this main offensive task.
However, Yue Weihan's next words poured cold water on several people's heads.
"You don't have to take over the main offensive task." Yue Weihan said, "This counterattack on the Japanese mainland will be carried out by the 3rd and 8th Group Armies, starting from the Miura Peninsula on the left side of Tokyo Bay and the Boso Peninsula on the right side respectively.
Landing, the two armies will seize the beach and land successfully, then push forward with all their strength to the north and attack Tokyo."
Song Xilian and other six commanders were a little discouraged, but after thinking about it, they were relieved. The reason why all the motorized infantry divisions of the 3rd and 8th Group Armies were transformed into heavy infantry divisions was not just for counterattack***
Mainland? Moreover, with the 3rd and 8th Army taking the lead, they had nothing to say.
Yue Weihan paused and then said: "After Tokyo is won, if the Japanese Emperor declares unconditional surrender, the war will end. If the Japanese Emperor resists until the Japanese arrive, the remaining six armies will also land in Tokyo one after another until they occupy Honshu.
Until the entire island, the *** government declares unconditional surrender!”
"Damn it, you'd better fight to the end!" Yue Weihan finished his words, and Peng Bisheng said fiercely, "I haven't had enough of it yet. No matter what, we have to let our 5th Army go to Tokyo to deceive us.
Right? Otherwise, this battle would be too boring, everyone, right?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Yue Weihan frowned and said, "In a war, people have to die, so what's the good of dying? What's wrong with ending the war early? But if you want to take the troops to Tokyo to deceive others, that's easy.
, after *** surrenders, I will ask your major armies to take turns garrisoning *** every three years, is this okay?"
"Hey." Peng Bisheng grinned and said nothing more. He just complained.
Yue Weihan then said to General Huang Jie, Chief of Staff: "Chief of General Huang, starting from today, the Air Force can begin large-scale bombing of Tokyo, Osaka and other major Japanese ports and industrial cities.
In order to maximize the bombing effect, it is best to use napalm on a large scale!"
"Yes." Huang Jie suddenly stood up and saluted again.
Yue Weihan waved his hand, and then said to the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, General Huang Shaokuan: "Brother Houfu, the Navy must not only strictly enforce the safe sea lanes, but also urge the Yangon Shipyard and Jiangnan Shipyard to speed up the production of transport ships and
Armed merchant ships, if our army wants to launch a large-scale beach landing battle in Tokyo Bay, it cannot do without enough transport ships."
General Chen Shaokuan stood up suddenly and said solemnly: "Commander-in-Chief, don't worry, the sea lanes between the mainland and the outside world have been completely blocked by our navy. Not even a drop of crude oil or a grain of ore can be transported in! As for transport ships and armed merchant ships,
Please give me another three months. After three months, I can basically transport two heavy infantry divisions to carry out a beach landing!"
"Okay, then I'll give you three months." Yue Weihan nodded happily, "If you have any difficulties, just ask the headquarters!"
After saying that, Yue Weihan suddenly stood up, his eyes flashed across everyone's faces, and he said loudly: "The other group armies must also intensify their training, and there must be no slack in the slightest!"
The senior generals present at the meeting immediately stood up and agreed with a loud voice.
***Tokyo, Imperial Palace Chogoden.
Emperor Hirohito was asking Tojo Hideki and Anami Yuki about the deployment of the decisive battle plan in the homeland.
Suddenly, a shrill air defense siren sounded outside the main hall. The Chinese Air Force was finally going to bomb Tokyo!
