In the early morning of the day of the year, the month and the knife.
The darkness before dawn always makes people unconsciously regret a panic, a slight chill of the night wind blows, Song Yuhang involuntarily tightens his neckline, standing alone next to his jeep, although he has not slept all night, but he still has no tiredness.
The helpless reality was in front of him, exactly the same as he expected, Chiang Kai-shek kicked the ball back intact, which made Song Yuhang wonder that the negotiations between countries and countries actually had to let him lead the troops to the front line to fight.
There are soldiers who pin their heads to their belts today and tomorrow, which is really illogical to the extreme.
The first mechanized corps advanced all units, whether it is vehicles, equipment or personnel, have been tired to the peak, just now the second lightly armed division of the sixth regiment had a rear-end collision, more than 30 Dodge two-ton trucks crashed together, the front of a greyhound was knocked off the bridge, more than 100 officers and soldiers in the accident suffered varying degrees of minor injuries, the most dangerous is the greyhound overboard, fortunately the rescue in time, otherwise the eight in the greyhound will be martyrs.
Song Yuhang knew that he would face a difficult choice this time, and the current battle situation was still a situation in which the brave won when they met on a narrow road, whether it was Chiang Kai-shek, who was the actual commander of the Chinese side, or Netmura Ningci, who was the first to care about the safety of the rear, who was doomed to be defeated.
If the squadron fails, Chongqing and Song Yuhang's base Kunming will be directly exposed to the Japanese army's front.
So China can't afford to lose, especially this time.
Fo Xiao and Wang Chongxian brought good news and bad news to Song Yuhang, the good news was that all the gunboats and planes commanded by Su Sifei had been transferred to Guangzhou.
There are 10,000 more than originally expected, and these 10,000 are all new models that have been replaced with millimeter caliber howitzers and installed with Liu Poll's sight, and the bad news is that Chennault said that with the current capacity, he cannot guarantee the comprehensive consumption of fuel and ammunition for such a large gunboat fleet and fighter unit.
Song Yuhang glanced at the map on the engine cover and then said: "The gunboats and planes will take turns, but we must absolutely guarantee Guangzhou's air supremacy."
Disperse the planes to several field airfields in the surrounding area, you can't put all your eggs in one basket, and the airport guard troops must strengthen their vigilance, and these treasures of mine must not be destroyed on the ground. ” When there was a hint of fish white on the edge of the sky, Song Yuhang let out a long sigh, compared with the smooth international war, it seemed that the domestic war situation had fallen into an inexplicable state, and the Allied forces in the Pacific Ocean had defeated the Japanese one after another, but at home, Sun Bing had repeatedly folded And yesterday evening, the troops found that the airdropped rice had turned into moldy and shelled rice, and the white flour had turned into chaff, which had already made Song Yuhang angry, and he was extremely shocked, and then Xiao Guodong reported that someone dared to exchange shoddy materials for the large amount of materials hoarded by the expeditionary force It was hard for Song Yuhang to imagine that anyone had the courage to do this, and when the battle was going on like a critical time, Xuan actually exchanged moldy rice and grain bran for the rice and white flour in the warehouse In the face of the critical juncture of the life and death of the nation and the country, there are still people who dare to make such a retrograde Song Yuhang does not believe that Chongqing has not noticed at all, this group of daring people actually hit the idea on the expeditionary force, can other troops let it go, and according to Xiao Guodong, the purchase orders for this batch of materials were bought with a water of hard currency, silver dollars and US dollars.
When he entered the warehouse, he personally checked it, but after the airdrop, he found a problem, and when he went to the warehouse to check, he found that the problem was serious.
Most of the nearly 10,000 tons of grain reserves are likely to be problematic.
The most serious thing is that it was found that the amount of oil in the inventory was wrong, and it was being verified, and the oil was the source of life and power of the mechanized troops, and this news really scared Song Yuhang out of a cold sweat, and his first reaction was that there was a problem within the logistics of the expeditionary force, and some people in the country colluded to steal and sell military supplies, or the hidden sabotage and subversion of Japanese spies, which were all possible.
Song Yuhang really didn't want to doubt the black and thin Xiao Guodong, whenever he saw Xiao Guodong's haggard expression, Song Yuhang felt sad.
He always thinks of the white fat man who followed him in the rainy night of the Tonggu life and death breakthrough, in just two years, Xiao Guodong changed from a white fat man to a black thin man, and the whole huge work pressure of the Chinese Expeditionary Force's logistics was all on his shoulders, and I heard the doctor say that Xiao Guodong had been so tired that he vomited blood several times and fell into a coma.
However, in the rear, most of the government officials are still desperately sucking the people's fat and people's ointment, and the corruption has reached a shocking level, these black hands not only eat the place, but also reach out to the army that is fighting bloody battles on the front line, if these black hands are not cut off, China will never have peace, and who dares to guarantee that there is no Japanese puppet traitor spy among these corrupt elements Song Yuhang knew that he didn't have the time to deal with those moths at present, and when he defeated Little Japan, he turned around and talked back to them and settle the account For the current government of the Republic of China, Song Yuhang can be said to have completely lost confidence, relying on those guys who have not achieved enough things and have more than enough failures, they will only make the good situation worse.
Turn the bad into one The new government is a small new system.
A brand new world Song Yuhang looked at the sunrise in the east, a red sun rising, took a few puffs of the cigar in his hand and extinguished it: "Inform the armored guard battalion and the gendarmerie battalion, prepare to advance, I."
"The joint pain is behind the first reloader.
Tell all the officers and soldiers that I, Song Yuhang and Yak Bian Chuan, share life and death weal and woe."
Sitting on the bumpy jeep, Song Yu held a slack assault rifle, a steel helmet and a combat vest, like an ordinary company and platoon officer on the front line.
This was to reduce the likelihood of an attack by Japanese snipers.
Because when the vanguard troops captured Tiezhou, an old officer of the political department who was very fond of arranging music was accidentally attacked and killed by a Japanese sniper, and the special commandos who arrived later killed the Japanese sniper and captured a Type 97 sniper rifle equipped with a Tian Guang scope.
The discovery of this Type 97 sniper rifle doubled the vigilance of the entire First Mechanized Corps, and all officers above the regimental level were required to take off their ranks, wear soldiers' uniforms, and carry assault rifles.
It can be said that after Song Yuhang's decision to send troops to Hengyang to cut off the supply lines of the Japanese army began, the three heavy armored cavalry regiments of the First Heavy Armored Division of the First Mechanized Army of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, which served as the vanguard, were not fighting.
Instead, they were in a hurry, and the Japanese troops they encountered were often squads, squadrons, and brigades, and most of these Japanese troops were old, weak, sick and disabled.
Each Japanese squad, which was supposed to have about seventy men, was actually less than forty men.
Except for the Shaoyang garrison of the Japanese army, there is a brigade, and the rest of the places at the county level will have the size of a devil squad, and the important county town will have a squadron with a serious shortage of formation, which shows how the Japanese army's strength is lacking.
Song Yuhang originally planned to launch a general attack on Hengyang and occupy Hengyang on Feiri, but now it seems that this can only be a good wish, because the Tang Ziqiang regiment at the forefront is still sixty kilometers away from Hengyang.
Even if they arrived, it would be very irrational to rush into attack without knowing the enemy's situation.
In desperation.
Song Yuhang sent an urgent telegram informing Chang Tianfang to complete the assembly of troops as much as possible.
Only under the premise of full certainty can an attack be launched against Hengyang, and before the attack, it is necessary to coordinate the cooperation of gunboats and other combat units.
After sending the telegram, Song Yuhang led his troops to rush to Bangzhou, and heard that Commander Song was going to rush to the First Heavy Armored Division to make peace with him before the arrival of the Second Light Division.
The officers and men of the 1st Heavy Armored Division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, which were already exhausted, seemed to be recharged.
The Supreme Commander had all come up, and there was almost no doubt about winning this battle, and in addition to the fact that there was almost no effective resistance from the Japanese army along the way, the officers and men with high morale even sang the military song of the expeditionary force to refresh themselves.
As Luo Jiaxiang said before, sometimes Song Yuhang is painted. can be used by a teacher Chang Tianfang looked at the troops on the march and sighed, when Guangzhou set off, there were eight people and one Peng armored car, and now there are more than 20 people sitting on one car, and several drivers take turns to drive through this long-distance attack.
It also made Chang Tian, who was arrogant and self-defeating on weekdays, a lot more honest, his heavy armored division was not invincible, and without effective logistical support, his heavy division was a temporary rotten, just like Song Yuhang warned him in anti-concubine, your enemy is not the Japanese, but you On the day and night of April, Song Yuhang's headquarters arrived in Qiaozhou, and an armored infantry battalion left behind by Chang Tianfang was outside the city to meet the arrival of the commander's headquarters.
Outside the city of Tiezhou, Song Yuhang pointed to the map spread on the engine cover of the jeep and said to Wang Chongxian and Lu Long: "The city in front of us is located in the southeast of Hunan Province, at the intersection of the middle section of the Nanling Mountains and the southern section of the Luoxiao Mountains, and borders Feizhou City of Jiangxi Province in the east, Shaoguan City and Qingyuan City of Guangdong Province in the south, Yongzhou City in the west, Hengyang City and Zhuzhou City in the north, and is less than a kilometer away from Changsha, the provincial capital."
Lu Long illuminated the map with a flashlight, he heard Song Yuhang's intention to deploy heavy troops, and hesitated for a piece of Xuan and said: "This is easy to attack and difficult to defend in all directions, if our army invests too many troops in this time, I am afraid that the gains outweigh the losses."
Wang Chongxian, who was standing on the side, smiled slightly and said, "Unless Song Changan doesn't want to give up Bangzhou and completely occupy it." ” Lu Long immediately objected: "The remnants of the Japanese army in the entire Leizhou Peninsula and even around Guangzhou have not yet been cleared, and the Japanese army has a considerable army stationed on Hainan Island and Taiwan, and their army aviation force is also relatively strong.
The entire line along the line can be said to be able to log in everywhere.
If it weren't for the large number of gunboats and planes in Guangzhou and the Mustang fighters of the three brigades, I am afraid that our army would have come out of the nest this time, and the Japanese army would have already started to attack Guangzhou Song Yuhang hesitated for a moment and said: "Order the Sino-US joint air force to strengthen the reconnaissance of the movements of the Japanese army in Taiwan and Hainan, report to General Chennault, and ask him to eliminate the continuous bombing of Japanese airfields in Hainan and Taiwan by planes, and do everything possible to weaken the air power of the Japanese army. ” "I decided that once Hengyang was captured, our army would defend in the second time, completely cut off the connection between Ningci and Changsha and the supply supply to alleviate the frontal pressure of Bai Chongxi and Li Zongren, and when the Japanese army was short of supplies and ammunition, we blocked the Japanese army's way back to the north in Hengyang, and also blocked the rescue of the Japanese army in Changsha, and concentrated a main force to quickly divide the Japanese army and disrupt their deployment.

Wang Chongxian and Lu Long exchanged glances and said, "Has the commander of this plan reported to the chairman and the Supreme Military Commission?"
Song Yuhang shook his head and said: "Our army is rushing to cut off the retreat and supply lines of the Japanese army, if they are so stupid that they don't even know how to counterattack and cooperate, then I have nothing to say." ” Wang Chongxian spread his hands and sighed: "I guess that Okamura Ningji must have regarded our commander as an ordinary powerful faction, and he seriously underestimated the desperate determination of Chief Song, and Netmura Ningji couldn't gather a force to confront us in his incomparably empty rear for a while, so he could only watch us make trouble in the Heavenly Palace, I believe that Netmura Ningci still still thinks that our army's attack on Hengyang is a tactical deception, this old fool" Song Yuhang smiled helplessly and said: "It's not that Ningci Wangcun is too pig-headed, but we are too crazy, because we have always put ourselves in the most disadvantageous angle to carry out all the deployments, lacking the most basic basis and rationality."
Only Song Yuhang himself understood in his heart that what he had been pursuing was deception at the tactical level rather than at the strategic level, because almost none of the generals of the enemy and our armies who fought each other grew up eating dry food, and the only successful deception of the Allies at the strategic level during World War II was the Normandy landing, which made the German army misjudge its strategic position and determination, causing the German elite SS Panzer Division to lose the best opportunity to carry out a counterattack and drive the Allies into the sea at the beginning of the landing.
However, in the subsequent market garden operation, Montgomery's strategic operational intentions were perceived by the German army, and as a result, five divisions of British and American paratroopers plus a Polish paratroop brigade could be described as heavy casualties and corpses all over the field, and finally the remnants of the British 1st Airborne Division in Anheng were forced to set up a white flagBasically, the success rate of deception at the strategic level can be described as low and low, it is a pity that Chairman Chiang of Kunming can not see this, he always takes it for granted that he is arranging what he thinks of the battle, it is obvious that Netmura Ningci is unwilling to be led by the nose by his Jiang family, and the squadron did not concentrate all its forces to defeat it before the Japanese army received effective reinforcements, resulting in a battle between the two sides, and the erosion of the war situation can be imagined.
"Put it to death and live later" Song Yuhang's joy slammed on the location of Hengyang on the map 。
April Live Night.
Squadrons appeared in the south and west of the city outside Hengyang City, which frightened the Japanese officers and soldiers of the Japanese Jade Brick Garrison Wing in Hengyang City, and the roar of the tank engine made the Yuzoshan Temple tremble.
Desperately sent rescue telegrams to Changsha and Guilin.
Claiming that they had encountered the absolute main force of the Chinese mechanized army, Hengyang City was already in danger.
As a material transportation and transshipment base for the Japanese army when it attacked Guilin, due to the important geographical location of Hengyang, the Japanese army deployed a whole infantry wing here.
At the same time, the field hospitals of the Japanese First Army and the Chinese Dispatch Army were also located here, and at this moment there were about 20,000 Japanese soldiers who were waiting to be transported from Guilin in front of Qianqian and waiting to be transported.
Okamura Ningji, who was barefoot and clothed in this clothes, appeared in the solemn and solemn war room for the first time since his arrival, and he did not believe that the main force of the First Mechanized Army would appear outside Hengyang, because in the afternoon the special intelligence agency under the base camp also concluded that Guangzhou and Shaoyang had at least two divisions or more.
With the strength of a division, he went deep alone, without the troops on the left and right flanks, and without follow-up troops to respond, Song Yuhang would make such a low-level command mistake and would be willing to risk his elite troops Could it be that his judgment was wrong, and he miscalculated Song Yuhang, his people, and his good intentions technique When the special intelligence agency confirmed the information that a high-power multi-frequency radio station of the Chinese Expeditionary Force had crossed the prefecture and headed straight for Hengyang, Netimura Ninji seemed to have regained some confidence, and he knew that the code name of the power multi-frequency radio station in the intelligence agency was "Tiger Cub," which means trump card in Japanese.
That represents Song Yuhang, the supreme commander of the Chinese Expeditionary Force.
As the supreme commander of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, a high-ranking general who commands hundreds of thousands of troops like himself, it is almost impossible for Netimura Ningji to return to danger alone, and the only explanation for this signal is that the squadron wants to convince himself that they are attacking Hengyang with all their might, and that even the Supreme Commander is ready to go to the front in person.
In Netmura Ningji's view, even if the Chinese expeditionary force really captured Hengyang, then they would definitely expose their strength.
At present, he has been hoarding combat materials and ammunition for a week, and at the same time he sent chariot troops and elite divisions to cooperate with the reinforcements from Changsha, and unceremoniously ate the great gift given to him by Song Yuhang, imagine Song Yuhang's extremely annoyed expression Netmura Ningji suddenly felt refreshed, and the mood at the moment was so-called wonderful:
