Chapter 548: Difficult Times
Chapter 548: Difficult Times
This is a very direct statement.
Chief of Staff Shi Taikang lit a cigarette as he spoke.
It tastes better when you puff out smoke.
"We can't let the 21st Division be cannon fodder!"
"What has this become?"
"Wouldn't it be better if we worked together to stop the Japs at the first line of defense?"
"Why do you have to play such a trick?"
"Just to scare the soldiers?"
"Who will be willing to serve you then?"
"madness!"
"madness!"
Deputy Commander Wei Shoujiang really couldn't understand this logic.
Brain damage? Or what?
I always feel like...something is not right.
"Old Wei."
"You."
"It's just too upright."
"That's not a good thing."
"Calm down."
"Don't overthink it."
"Others may not know what kind of character that officer is, but don't you know it?"
"Safety first."
"Now that you're pushing him like this, he's not happy either."
"Why did we end up in such a bad mood?"
"and……"
"Do you really think that a heavy artillery regiment can turn the tide on the front lines?"
"The chances are too small."
"The devils brought a tank regiment and a division of elite soldiers."
"This is well prepared."
"I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle next!"
A sigh was heard.
He shook his head silently.
Chief of Staff Shi Taikang saw it very clearly.
War situation.
It's getting worse.
"But you can't be afraid of fighting!"
"What's the point of hiding all the time? What's the point?"
Deputy Commander Wei Shoujiang said through clenched teeth.
I felt inexplicably indignant.
"Anyway..."
"An artillery battalion was also sent to the front."
"It helps a little."
"Actually...that's not the point."
"I'm afraid the devils won't give in..."
"Fencheng will be in real trouble then."
Chief of Staff Shi Taikang moved his lips bitterly, and his eyes suddenly became empty.
"Lao Shi, what do you mean?"
"Do you think... Fencheng can't be defended?"
"In half a day, the 41st and 57th Armies will be here soon."
"By then, 50,000 troops from these two armies will attack the devils from the periphery."
"We'll draw the enemy's firepower from the inner circle."
"Then we will be surrounded from both inside and outside."
"These devils will surely die!"
"Besides, we have a steady stream of reinforcements arriving."
"so."
"In fact, the difficult part is this half-day window period."
"There are still 30,000 defenders inside and outside the city."
"We have both heavy artillery and anti-aircraft artillery regiments."
"I don't believe you can't hold on for half a day!"
Deputy Commander Wei Shoujiang gritted his teeth.
"Holding on for half a day shouldn't be a problem."
"But... half a day later, the 41st and 57th Armies finally arrived."
"You feel……"
"Will they attack the devils directly?"
"The Japs have a tank regiment and an elite division."
"It is true that the two armies have 50,000 troops."
"But do you dare to launch an attack on a Japanese division and a tank regiment?"
"Offense is proactive offense."
"Defense is passive defense."
“The meanings between the two are different.”
"You should understand what I'm saying, right?"
Chief of Staff Shi Taikang said.
"You mean... the 41st and 57th Armies will be afraid of fighting?"
"Isn't this possible?"
"Gong Xiangyu, commander of the 41st Army... Jin Qi, commander of the 58th Army. These are all senior officers who have served under their superiors."
"Just watch someone die and not help?"
"They don't have the courage."
Deputy Commander Wei Shoujiang shook his head.
"Hey……"
"Old Wei, you always treat everyone as you!"
"If it were you, you would naturally lead the troops to attack without hesitation."
"But others..."
"Is it true?"
"To put it bluntly, our Fencheng troops are just a loose group."
"You can't see anything on weekdays."
"Fighting a favorable battle won't reveal anything."
"But if we have to fight a tough battle..."
"Ha ha……"
"If the commander were outside the city right now and was safe, they might still have some concerns."
"But the commander is in the city right now, surrounded by the devils."
"You feel."
"Do they really have no ulterior motives?"
This may sound harsh, but if you think about it carefully, you will suddenly feel like you have been enlightened.
It seemed like everything started to make a lot more sense.
Chief of Staff Shi Taikang has always seemed to be oblivious to what is happening outside.
But in fact, he knows everything about these big and small things.
I'm just too lazy to say it.
"Do they dare to have second thoughts?"
"I'll kill them!"
Deputy Commander Wei Shoujiang gritted his teeth.
"Who can we kill in the city?"
"All I can say is, prepare for the worst."
"Hold on a little longer..."
"if……"
"if……"
"never mind."
Chief of Staff Shi Taikang hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.
"What if?"
Sudden.
A shout was heard.
Chief of Staff Shi Taikang and Deputy Commander Wei Shoujiang were both shocked.
I saw that the commander was standing at the door without me noticing when.
His face was gloomy at the moment.
"Sir, when did you come here?"
Chief of Staff Shi Taikang raised his eyebrows. Could it be that the officer heard everything that was just said?
"I wanted to come here to talk to you guys about something."
"Seeing you were having a good chat, I didn't disturb you."
"I heard everything you just said."
"Taikang."
"You haven't said what the if is yet?"
The commander obviously cares about this.
"Sir, what I mean is..."
"The situation is delicate."
"If we can get support from the main city or the New 1st Brigade, Fencheng will definitely be safe."
"At least they have air forces."
"Even if it's just to dispatch some air force to support it."
Chief of Staff Shi Taikang said.
"Main city..."
"New Brigade..."
The commander's mouth twitched.
Each one is more difficult than the last.
What do you expect from them?
What can I do?
How likely is this...?
"The main force of the main city is not in Jin Province. Distant water cannot quench immediate thirst."
"The main city's air force has always been treated as a treasure trove. How could they be mobilized at will?"
"but……"
"Send a telegram."
"What if..."
"As for the New First Brigade..."
"When the New 1st Brigade repeatedly fought against the Japanese, we never lent a helping hand."
"Seeking help now..."
"Won't that make Lin Xu laugh at me?"
"Fuck it, I can't afford to lose this guy!"
The commander gritted his teeth.
"Then you won't ask for help from the New 1st Brigade?"
Deputy Commander Wei Shoujiang said.
The commander was silent.
"Ask for help from Daxia Bay."
"They are all friendly forces..."
"It would be best if we could get reinforcements."
"No, it doesn't matter."
"I don't count on it anyway."
"Our reinforcements will be arriving soon!"
The officer held his head high, appearing very confident.
Having said this, the officer suddenly paused again.
"correct."
"Send electricity to all reinforcements!"
"Tell them that they must attack the Japanese the first time they arrive in Fencheng."
"How dare you miss the opportunity to fight."
"I don't care if I'm a division commander or an army commander."
"Just kill me!"
