Chapter 345 How about doing business with the Navy
Who can suppress such a monster? If it is not an ordinary person, I am afraid it will be impossible to subdue it.
Among the people present, Xiao Ye slowly turned his gaze towards Zhou Weiguo and thought to himself, this kind of evildoer could probably only be suppressed by Old Zhou.
Most people would definitely let the person in front of them kill them.
He was even scheming to do business with the Combined Fleet. Just tell me how powerful this guy is.
Tian Jing thought that she was quite good at scheming, but the person in front of her, Zhao Xiang Xiu Ling, was even more ruthless than her. She could only plan two steps, but the person in front of her had at least planned five steps, and the calculations were one after another.
The river defense fort intercepted the Japanese fleet, forced the other side to surrender, seized naval ships, and then deduced that the navy and the army must fight separately and act independently. But now, it is necessary to divide the Wuhan army into two routes to reduce pressure.
In other words, the troops in Wuhan were all used to deal with his army, and the navy side just found some people to watch, and the link in the middle was to do business with the navy.
If this deal is done, it means that the Wuhan Navy will have to have several more ships and some anti-aircraft weapons, and all the Yamashiro has to pay is to let go of the Japanese army along the way when they can't stop it, so that the navy can arrive and occupy Wuhan first. It can also be said that they will take Wuhan without bloodshed.
"Can...can it be done?" Tian Jing broke the excitement in everyone's hearts. It was not that she wanted to pour cold water on them at this time, but this matter did not seem so easy.
Even if a fight breaks out, how long can the river defense artillery hold out?
"What I mean is, even if a fight breaks out, we won't be able to hold out for long."
Xiao Ya nodded and looked at Zhao Xiang Xiuling beside her; "Tian Jing is right, their weapons and equipment are much better than ours."
Chaoxiang Xiuling laughed and said nonchalantly, "If he doesn't agree, we will let the army occupy Wuhan first. I'll see what Hase Kiyoshi will do."
"It's cold, what else can we do?" Hase Kiyoshi threw the telegram in his hand aside and looked at the adjutant beside him; "Are the people above crazy? They asked us to occupy Wuhan first."
Isn't this embarrassing?
Not to mention the narrow Yangtze River area and the waterline problem, the Ma'an River Defense Fortress alone is enough to make things difficult for him.
The reconnaissance aircraft reported that the enemy at the Ma'an River Defense Fort had once again concentrated some merchant ships to block the alley. In addition, they had also reinforced the fort. In addition, several interception points had appeared in the upstream direction.
For the army, as long as they break through their defensive positions, they can continue to advance. However, for the navy, taking down the opponent's defensive positions is only the first step. The second step, clearing the alleys, is really difficult.
If the alleys cannot be cleared, the ships will not be able to move forward.
"General, the Navy has already allocated three divisions of marines to us, and we also have ships to support us. I think we will definitely..."
"It must be bullshit." Hase Kiyoshi turned his head and looked at his adjutant. How could he have such a stupid adjutant?
If there had been no falling out with the Army, this would indeed have been feasible. But it was no longer possible now, because the Army and he were acting independently. No matter whether it was him, Okamura Neiji, or Terauchi Hisaichi, neither of them could provide reinforcements for their Marines.
It can be said with certainty that the range of activities of these three divisions must not exceed 50 kilometers from the Yangtze River. If you exceed that, you will be surrounded and devoured by the other side.
"You don't think the Army Red Deer will support us."
In order to deal with the Wuhan operation, the Navy Headquarters has dispatched two aircraft carriers, Akagi and Hosho, to provide reinforcements, along with five naval land-based aviation groups, three divisions, and two independent brigades. In addition, eleven destroyers and five light cruisers also came.
Under the command of the Third Fleet, occupied Wuhan.
The ideal is to use light cruisers and destroyers to destroy the enemy's artillery under the cover of aviation, and then the Marines will land and cooperate with each other to advance forward.
The problem is, they are not stupid enough to just wait for you to bomb them. I heard that the river defense artillery has already added a batch of anti-aircraft weapons. As for the heavy artillery, I haven't heard about it, but the remaining artillery is enough to make people afraid.
The army idiots will definitely not help, they might even make way for them to rush over, there is nothing that those bastards can't do. They can do anything disgusting.
"Are we just going to watch them win this victory?" The adjutant's eyes widened. "If so, will the higher-ups let us off?"
"This time, I will definitely not let them go." Terauchi Hisaichi, who had arrived at the 11th Army Headquarters and took over as commander, stared at one place with his eyes narrowed into slits.
Fangjiashan Town, where the 74th Army Independent Regiment is located.
He took over the position the afternoon before yesterday. As for Okamura Neiji, he failed to dig a pit, but he jumped into it. He had to bear the responsibility for the 45th Regiment's death in Fangjiashan Town. Therefore, he was originally transferred to serve as the highest commander of the Henan battlefield, but was transformed into the commander of the 14th Division. He was hit in the face by a shoe from the headquarters.
The 74th Army appeared on the Wuhan battlefield and met me again. If I let go of this army that once forced me to resign, it would be a disgrace to me.
"Send out the aviation force to bomb the enemy's independent regiment's defensive positions. The 6th Brigade of the 36th Division will deploy on the front and advance forward to reach the front line of defense at Fangjiashan."
The adjutant frowned. Not long ago, the general in front of him told him that the 6th Division would be transferred to the Shanghai-Nanjing-Hangzhou direction for guard duty. Why did the general suddenly change the plan? Wasn't he worried that the two incompatible people would fight each other?
"General, you transferred the 36th Brigade to the front of Fangjiashan Town. Why...why?" Why did you change the battle plan in less than a few days?
"Why, don't you understand my intention?" After giving the order, Terauchi Hisaichi turned his head and looked at his adjutant and asked calmly.
The adjutant shook his head slightly. He... he really didn't understand.
"You don't understand this. You are still the former division chief of staff." At the headquarters of the Fangjiashan Independent Regiment, Chao Xiang Xiuling, who had just returned from the medical company, heard Fang Shengli and Sano Tadayoshi talking about the Japanese army's intention of mobilizing the 36th Brigade.
Sano Tadayoshi raised his head and glanced at Asaka Hiderei; "Why, have you figured it out?" The Japanese army mobilized the 6th Brigade of the 36th Division to advance head-on towards the Fangjiashan position, which really confused Sano Tadayoshi. He couldn't figure out what Terauchi Hisaichi's intention was in doing this.
"I see. They just want to use the 36th Brigade as bait. We are all enemies. Our independent regiment has always been a place of revenge. How can we let this enemy go when we meet him?"
"That's not true. Our independent regiment has always been like this." Before Fang Shengli could finish his words, Chao Xiang Xiuling interrupted him, "Don't brag about it. It has nothing to do with us."
What do you mean, it doesn’t matter?
