Chapter 127 Stone Breaks the Sky 7
Ningchi Okamura waved his hand and said, "Give Nakajima Nakazo a military uniform. He will be very embarrassed by the imperial army of this."
Nakajima took a deep breath and said, "I understand, thank you, Deputy Chief of Staff!"
In fact, Ningji Okamura and Tai Nakajima belong to the category of smart people, so it is not difficult to talk to each other. The only difference, Ningji Okamura is very lucky, and he is also the former team of Showa warlord Hirohito himself, while Nakajima Tai is unlucky. He was selected to serve as the so-called negotiator and unlucky. Zhang Xuewu, a guy who never played cards according to the rules, in the view of Ningci Okamura, Zhang Xuewu's behavior is trying to anger his own side? All this seems too unreasonable?
Nakajima Taijian Okamura Ningci frowned, so he boldly said, "I found that although the surface buildings in Chengde City have been basically destroyed by our artillery fire, there are also a large number of hidden fortifications, dark castles and fire points. Zhong [***] is equipped with a large number of machine guns, submachine guns and combat defense guns, and their fighting spirit is high. There is enough ammunition."
"What? Is there enough ammunition? Ningci Okamura looked at Nakajima with unbelievable eyes and hesitated for a moment: "Our army besieged the city for more than ten days, and almost every day we fought fiercely all night. We suffered nearly 50,000 casualties. How can Zhong [***] still have enough ammunition? Zhong [***] must be acting for you, which just shows that they don't have enough ammunition.
Ningci Okamura is very sure of his judgment, because according to the amount of ammunition fired in the middle [***], it is impossible for him to accumulate more ammunition than the total amount of ammunition prepared by the Kwantung Army for the Battle of Rehe, right? Moreover, the insider of Nanjing has given the background of several resupply of the new first division. It is absolutely impossible for the central army of Nanjing to hoard so many weapons and ammunition.
Before the launch of the Rehe Campaign, the intention of the battle was quite good, giving the middle [***] an illusion. Is it possible that someone will foresight? Or did the intelligence mistakenly reveal the tactical intention?
Nakajima is not ready to give Okamura Ningji a chance to stand up, because if Okamura Ningji's point of view can stand up, then he will die! Nakajima took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Deputy Chief of Staff, I don't know what you think of the Battle of Chengde?"
Ningci Okamura was slightly stunned and then said, "Since the Russian War, our army has lacked the experience of joint operations of large regiments, and attacks and setbacks are inevitable. What's more, there are many mountains in the Rehe River, and the geographical location of Chengde is too special. In winter, there are many unfavors than our army's attack."
Nakajima Tai put on his clothes and said, "Although the middle [***] team was defeated with one blow, those middle [***] teams are all so-called local troops. They are not even the elite of the Northeast Army. They assisted Chengde and were intercepted by the 8th Division in the field [[***] The 106th Division of the Northeast Army is the East. The troops adapted from the provincial defense brigade of the Northern Army can only be regarded as second-rate in the Northeast Army system. Even so, the Eighth Division destroys the other side with almost 1:1 casualties. The real elite of the Northeast Army is the new first division guarding Chengde City. Before the adaptation of this force, it was the seventh brigade of the Northeast Army. They lost the Beijing Battalion without fighting. The army of sin, there is an old Chinese saying that the mourning army is invincible, and the return to the master is unstoppable! Please come here, Deputy Chief of Staff!"
Nakajima led Okamura Ningji to the map to pick up the triangle board and ruler, and beautifully drew a few triangular equal lines on the map: "Zhong [***] has assembled about 300,000 troops along the Great Wall, and there are about 50,000 people in Suiyuan, and Shanhaiguan is In the face [***], it has been increased to two legions, all of which are the main forces of the Northeast Army, but except for the 106th Division, which has been reinforced by the previous hard work, the rest of the troops are still? Isn't this abnormal? If he is alone in guarding a city, Zhang Xuewu should accept the ceasefire negotiations of our army, at least he can delay the time, but Zhang Xuewu did not care about the armistice, and even did not hesitate to insult me to anger our army and let our army resume the attack. Isn't it really difficult to reason?
Nakajima Tai paused and said, "Please take a look at the sand table again. Zhong***] stuck to Chengde but gave up half of the urban area. Many people have laughed at it before, but now it has proved that the enemy's garrison Zhang Xuewu is an authentic defensive war master. The price of half of the urban area he gave up is the sixth division. The regiment filled in a regiment, and [***] was sprinkled with beans on the bluestone road. Our soldiers slipped one by one and they hit one. The whole street a few hundred meters away from the old street is now full of blood ice. Those beans were all frozen on the ground by the blood flowing out. Now there are still more than 2,000 corpses that cannot be recovered. They are using their own use. How long can our officers and soldiers fight in the fortifications of the corpses of our comrades-in-arms?
Ningji Okamura frowned and said, "But the soldiers in the middle are also reinforcing the fortifications with the bodies of their comrades-in-arms. Why can't our army?"
Nakajima sighed helplessly: "Zhong [***] is like a group of sad warriors. The Shenyang Incident made them vulnerable to great losses. They fought fiercely with our army in Chengde with the intention of death, and the terrain of Chengde determined that our army's superior strength and firepower could not be effectively issued. The tough surname of Chinese soldiers is destined to be good at enduring, and their complete civil fortifications have minimized the casualties caused by artillery fire.
Nakajima pointed to the overall strategic posture and said, "After more than a month of continuous offensive, it is difficult for our army to supply weapons, ammunition and materials. Grassroots officers and soldiers are extremely tired. The field hospital is full of wounded soldiers and cannot be transferred, and the mountains of materials piled up in the morning sun cannot be delivered, even if these materials are sent to our army. How long can it be supported? If the strength of the two legions suddenly attack the front line of Shanhaiguan, and continue to force Jinzhou to cut off the retreat of our army, and the middle *** team at the first-line pass of the Great Wall takes advantage of the situation to attack, I face the elite of the middle of the middle like a wolf-like tiger with a lack of food and less bullets, what is our army's chance of winning?
Nakajima put his hand on Chengde's position and patted hard: "The strategic and tactical intentions of Zhong [***] are very clear. They guarded Chengde with an elite heart, consumed our army's living strength and ammunition supplies, and used the rugged and long logistics supply line of the hot river to drag down our army. Now it is evil. Although the trouble brought by the bad weather is getting smaller and smaller, once our army delays the offensive until the beginning of spring, the muddy road will bring more pressure on the logistics. If [***] attacks our army's Chaoyang supply base and attacks Shanhaiguan Jinzhou, I will cut off my retreat. At that time, I will go out of the five divisions and two mixed brigades in Rehe. It will be completely surrounded by [***] and even annihilated!"
Nakajima Tai's words made Okamura Ningci stride to the map. Okamura Ningji did not think that Zhong [***] had the determination to eat the five divisions of the imperial army and two mixed brigades at one time, but what Nakajima Tai said did make sense, because the table of Chengde's new first division. It shows that they are not like an isolated army at all. Their trenches, traffic trenches, firepower points, frequent front attacks, chariots and infantry coordination, a large number of artillery suppression preparations, and the traps given to the Sixth Division by the old street. All of this can be summed up. [***] can be said to be a good fight, and the defense war can be made into such a situation. It is the first time that Ningji Okamura has seen a commander who is so good at using the terrain.
He has every reason to believe that after this battle, regardless of the result, the Chengde defense battle will be included in the key defense model of the battle by each [***] school. Is the Imperial Army, which has absolute superior strength, heavy artillery, chariots and air force support, really going to sink the halberd in Chengde?
