The Republic of China: In order to seize the Cantonese department, the principal directly called Nia

"There are two main problems at the moment. "

"One is that ammunition reserves are close to the stockpile red line. "

"Second, the number of combat soldiers has decreased and the number of wounded has increased. "

Wang Taiyu didn't hide it and said directly.

The 2nd Army of the Qiong Army was alone in a lonely place, and the supply was not smooth, which could be expected in advance.

So during the rotation period of nearly a year, Chen Xu reserved a large amount of food and ammunition for the 2nd Army.

But after the outbreak of the war, the scale of the fighting continued to expand.

First, he faced the attack of an independent mixed brigade of little devils.

Subsequently, the devil transferred another reorganized division.

After the failure of the 20th Division's attack, the strength of the devils besieging Baxian reached three divisions.

Although two divisions were sent for reinforcements, the 2nd Army of the Qiong Army needed to take the initiative to attack in order to break the devil's intentions.

Taking the initiative means attacking on a large scale.

In the event of a large-scale offensive, the consumption of ammunition is visible to the naked eye.

Hoarded 105-mm and 155-mm shells.

Today, the stock is less than a third of what it was before the war.

There is no way, the support effect of heavy artillery is too powerful, so that commanders at all levels like to use it.

The more you use it, the faster the shells will be consumed......

There is also combat attrition.

It's also unavoidable.

Qiongjun is also an ordinary soldier, not an immortal.

In the face of cunning and die-hard devils, casualties are inevitable.

It was only the superior firepower of the Qiong army that killed and injured a large number of devils 02 in advance, so that the casualties of the Qiong army were controlled within a low range.

However, under the continuous fighting, the casualties of the 2nd Army of the Qiong Army were also increasing.

Today, more than 2,000 Qiong's troops have been killed.

More than 5,000 people were wounded.

Among them, more than 800 were seriously wounded.

Although Chen Xu established three large-scale field hospitals in the Baxian area in advance.

However, so many wounded in a short period of time quickly put the field hospitals in the Baxian area into an "overloaded" state of operation.

Jin Cheng, commander of the 18th Infantry Division, said: "Let's seize the time to expand the airfield, or build two more field airfields. "

"Let the marshal give us supplies by air. "

"Our defence is intact, and it won't be a problem to hold on for another two or three months. "

Zhou Jindong, commander of the 2nd Infantry Division, also spoke: "Our guns are still sufficient, and if we don't take the initiative to attack, there will be no problem in holding out for a month." "

Wang Taiyu: "Air freight is unrealistic. "

"We control the air supremacy in the Baxian area, but the little devils have invested too many planes, and the air supremacy in many areas outside Baxian is controlled by the little devils. "

"Continuous formations of transport planes are easy to attract the attention and interception of devils, and are easy to lose. "

"In addition. "

"On the Songjiang battlefield, Chang Guangtou has already agreed to the entry of our Qiong army. "

"The main force of the transport aircraft will be put into the direction of Songjiang, and it will be difficult to take care of our side. "

This news made Jin Cheng, Zhou Jindong and other division commanders silent.

There is no air transport.

Ground transport has been cut off again.

This means that the 2nd Army of the Qiong Army will not be able to get logistical supplies!

Wang Taiyu opened his mouth and said, "The marshal asks." "

"Holding on for a long time is determined by what we now have in stockpiles of ammunition. "

"The requirement for stockpiling ammunition is to be able to fight and withdraw from Baxian County to the Jaizhou area. "

"After each division returned, it carefully calculated and reported on its ammunition and other material stocks on a daily basis. "

"We need to shrink the line of defense on a case-by-case basis......"

......

Jin Cheng, commander of the 18th Infantry Division, suddenly spoke:

"Commander, what if the little devil is broken and no longer attacks us?"

Wang Taiyu said domineeringly: "Then take the initiative to attack and hit their encircling troops!"

"If we hit the devils and don't dare to leave troops to surround us, we will fight north and fight Yanjing. "

"The soldiers are forcing Yanjing, see if the little devil will come back to help!"

"When the time comes, the little devil's attack plan will still be disrupted. "

"Don't forget, the first task given to us by the big marshal is to contain the devil!"

From the moment the 2nd Army of the Qiong Army was deployed in Baxian, it was ready to block the little devils.

As long as the goal is achieved, it is useless to defend or attack!

After the meeting, the units of the 2nd Army of the Qiong Army temporarily switched to a defensive state.

However, the Japanese 1st Army also took the initiative to switch to a defensive state.

Although the Japanese 1st Army had the advantage in numbers.

However, the 20th Division and the 6th Division are now less than half of their combat strength.

The 1st Army of the Japanese Army actually had only two divisions left!

Although it still has an advantage in terms of troops, it is at a great disadvantage in terms of firepower.

This made Lieutenant General Kazuki Kiyoji not dare to attack again.

Even the siege plan arranged by General Shouichi Terauchi no longer heeded.

Lieutenant General Seiji Kazuki was worried.

If the troops are divided to prepare for reinforcements, the defensive deployment in the direction of Baxian will be weakened.

This will give the Qiong army of Baxian a chance......

In order not to give the Qiong army a chance, Kazuki Seiji decided to defend the Qiong army in Baxian County wholeheartedly.

Prevent the Qiong army in Baxian from taking the initiative to attack and threaten the Japanese 2nd Army moving south along the Pinghan line......

Kiyoshi Kazuki's "turtle" tactics caused a temporary calm in the Baxian area.

But this kind of calm is not what Shouichi Terauchi wants!

Terauchi Shouichi's Longbei Front Army had a total of eight divisions and three mixed brigades.

At present, three divisions and one mixed brigade are pinned down in the Baxian area, and only five divisions and two mixed brigades can be put into operation.

Taking into account the need to keep troops in the occupied territories.

The troops that can be mobilized are only four divisions and one mixed brigade when they are full.

This was not enough for the Japanese army, which needed to attack along three railway lines!

Arguably.

The 2nd Army of the Qiong Army in the Baxian area single-handedly disrupted the entire strategic planning of the base camp and Terauchi Shouichi.

The speed of advancement and the speed of occupation have shrunk significantly from another time and space that Chen Xu is familiar with......

In desperation, Shouichi Terauchi could only slow down the pace of the attack, and at the same time hurriedly asked for help from the base camp. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Request for more divisions to be sent into the Longbei area to join the battle......

Also asking for reinforcements is General Matsui Ishine from the Matsue battlefield.

Matsui Ishine is the commander of the Devil Matsue Dispatch Army.

The progress of the Songjiang battlefield was also unexpected by the devil's base camp.

In the case that the Qiong army did not participate in the war.

The Matsue Dispatch Army was unexpectedly unsuccessful.

This annoyed the politicians in the base camp and Dongying.

The Songjiang area is home to many foreign embassies, as well as foreign trading houses and concessions.

The battlefield information will be transmitted to the whole world at the first time.

The Japanese army's inability to open up the situation will seriously affect the character of "being able to fight well" created by Dongying in the international community.

In order to maintain the Empire's character of "being able to fight well", the base camp needs to win as soon as possible.

Of course, in the envisioning of the base camp.

After taking Songjiang, the imperial army directly approached Jinling City.

It is possible to force down the bald head.

As long as Chang Guangtou surrenders, the great cause of conquering the Dragon Kingdom will be successful......

Faced with the request for help from the two generals, the base camp was weighed.

It was decided to give priority to the Matsue direction.

As for the Longbei Front.

can only let Terauchi Shouichi slow down the pace of advancement and fight steadily......

Jinling City on the other side. []

The situation on the battlefield in Songjiang made Chang bald very satisfied.

Although the casualties of the Dragon Kingdom army were huge, several times more than the devils.

But Chang bald head is not distressed.

There were also losses in his Central Army, but not very large.

The main casualties were the forces of the warlords everywhere.

890 And with the Battle of Songjiang, Chang bald head gained a very high appeal.

This is what Chang bald head values the most.

If a soldier's blood donation can raise his appeal.

Chang bald head wouldn't mind streaming a little more......

There are also disobedient ones.

For example, Chen Xu's Qiong Jun.

The 1st Infantry Division of the Qiong Army was already stationed in the western suburbs of Songjiang.

Because the Qiong army in Baxian was too dazzling, Chang bald did not let the 1st Division of the Qiong Army, which was invited to fight, go into battle at the beginning of the war.

Chang bald was worried that the 1st Infantry Division of the Qiong Army had stolen the limelight from the Central Army......

As the troops of the local warlords suffered heavy casualties on the battlefield of Songjiang, the troops began to be overstretched.

Chang bald thought of the 1st Infantry Division of the Qiong Army.

It's just that at this time, Chen Xu didn't agree with the 1st Infantry Division of the Qiong Army to go into battle.

On the contrary, Chen Xu directly transferred the 1st Infantry Division of the Qiong Army to the Jinshanwei area on the southern flank of the Songjiang River.

The reason is to guard against the landing of little devils at sea......

For this reason, Chang Tou was very angry.

A few years ago, the German advisers judged that the Jinshanwei area was not suitable for landing.

The 1st Infantry Division of the Qiong Army was deployed there, and it was clearly afraid of battle.

In the past few days, Chang Guangtou has instructed the media to accuse the 1st Division of the Qiong Army of disobeying military orders.

The implication is also accusing Chen Xu of supporting the army and self-respecting.

But it can't be said too bluntly.

After all, Qiongjun's record in Baxian has been known to the whole country by the newspapers in Guangdong Province.

"Chu Xingxing, commander of the 1st Infantry Division of the Qiong Army, has repeatedly disobeyed military orders, supported his own troops, and had a bad impact, so he must be ......dealt with strictly."

In the Jinling Daily on November 4, an article by the Ministry of Military Affairs was published.

He Yingqin directly named him by name and began to prepare public opinion for the forcible arrest of Chu Xingxing......

It's just that Jinshanwei is off the coast at this time.

Dozens of Dongying ships have gathered to .......
