Chapter 258 Intelligence, Intelligence, or Intelligence
The 88th Army Military Command Office, the meeting was chaired by the commander Liu Jiashu, and 4 division commanders, security commander, Boss Dai and Zhang Junhao attended.
Boss Dai informed everyone that the Japanese generals launched attacks on Yongkang and Wenzhou in two directions, and all the participants were so scared that they broke out in tears.
Commander Liu Jiashu then read out the order of the Third War Zone. This order is of course similar to what Zhang Junhao and Boss Dai said. It seems that the Third War Zone Command fully agrees with Zhang Junhao's opinion.
Then Commander Liu Jiashu invited Zhang Junhao to the map to explain the tactical arrangements.
The tactical arrangement should be explained by the Chief of Staff of the 88th Army, but because the telegram of the Third War Zone Command specifically emphasized that everyone must listen to Zhang Junhao's opinions in this battle. Therefore, the tactical arrangement will be discussed first.
When Commander Liu Jiashu asked Zhang Junhao to come up and talk, Zhang Junhao immediately walked up. Because his thinking was very clear and his courage was not comparable to ordinary people.
Zhang Junhao took a metal rod and pointed to the direction of Hangzhou Bay to explain the enemy situation. He thought that the Japanese army would land in Yueqing, go to Yongjia, and surround Wenzhou. There are archipelagos on the sea in that direction, which can be used as a port and can avoid wind and waves. Under normal circumstances, he would not go to Ruian. After the Japanese army landed, the Japanese warships would block the Oujiang River estuary and send some personnel to land on important islands in the Oujiang River estuary. If there were small boats, they would go north along the river to support the army attacking from Yongjia, Yueqing. Because it was the main attack of the navy, the number of troops would not exceed 5,000. Therefore, avoid its edge first, and then attack the Japanese landing army far away from the Oujiang River and the coastline. The Wenzhou line should adopt a deep-time exchange strategy and cannot fight the Japanese army for the time being. The team withdrew from Wenzhou and used the mountainous areas on both sides of Wenzhou to fight with the Japanese army.
Zhang Junhao used a metal rod to point to the Wuyi direction of Jinhua, pointing out that the Japanese 22nd Division could gather no more than one-third of the division. The reason was that the 22nd Division had to ensure the safety of the local area before it could send troops. Guerrillas were raiding each place, and they were facing difficulties themselves. They could not move in full.
Zhang Junhao suggested that the entire 21st Division head to Yongkang and use a battalion to assist artillery guarding Jinsheng Mountain. As long as it can defend Jinsheng Mountain, the Japanese army will never be able to defeat Yongkang. One regiment is used to set up defenses on the north side of Yongkang and one regiment is forcing defenses in the southeast direction. When the Japanese army attacked Yongkang, the 79th Division launched an attack on Wuyi, and the 49th Army and the 21st Division forced to go to Lanxi, Jinhua. Two security regiments assisted in defenses against Yongkang, and one security regiment protected the Yongkang-Lishui transportation line.
The entire special melee team lurked in Jiangdong, Wuyi, attacking the Japanese army with a waist. In this battle, the 22nd Division only had the advantage of advanced weapons and was at a disadvantage in other aspects. Our army could achieve a great victory in defending Yongkang.
Commander Liu Jiashu walked to the map, pointed to the north side of Yongkang, and whispered: "How can a regiment resist the Japanese attack? The Japanese army can crush the 21st Division with just one brigade."
Zhang Junhao smiled and said, "I have served as the deputy chief of staff of the 21st Division. The 21st Division is my mother's home. I am confident in the combat effectiveness of the 21st Division. The 21st Division uses a regiment to dig trenches, but I don't believe that the Japanese army can break through easily. When the Japanese army launched an attack on the 21st Division, my special melee team would attack the Japanese army. How could the Japanese army continue to attack the 21st Division? Besides, the artillery on Jinsheng Mountain is not a vegetarian, and can support the 21st Division's perseverance."
Lieutenant General Luo Juntong stood up and said, "I believe in Captain Zhang, I listen to him. With the support of Jin Shengshan artillery, I have confidence in holding on with a regiment for one day."
Commander Liu Jiashu was ecstatic and smiled and said, "Deputy Commander Luo, if you have the confidence to guard for one day, this battle will be easy."
Early the next morning, Zhang Junhao said goodbye to Wu Di at the entrance of the team. Wu Di repeatedly reminded Zhang Junhao to pay attention to safety.
After Zhang Junhao and Wang Jinxian got into Lieutenant General Luo Juntong's car, Wu Di still climbed the car window and told Zhang Junhao to be careful.
On the way, Lieutenant General Luo Juntong seemed to have changed his performance and at the meeting. At the meeting, Lieutenant General Luo Juntong had a very firm attitude, but he was worried on the way back to Jinyun.
Lieutenant General Luo Juntong said to Zhang Junhao: "First of all, this battle must be fought, and there is no possibility of escape. Secondly, due to the unclear situation of the enemy, our army is very likely to suffer heavy damage in this battle and will never recover from now on."
Zhang Junhao said: "Don't worry! My special melee team is standing in front of your division!"
Lieutenant General Luo Juntong smiled bitterly and said, "Do you know how many troops the Japanese army will dispatch? The 22nd Division has 17 brigades! It is equivalent to two divisions. How can we resist it? Imagine that when the Japanese attacked twice, it was just a brigade force, and neither of our troops could resist it. But how many troops we only have now? How can we resist it? Besides, no matter how many troops the special melee team can fight, it is impossible to break through the defense of a division. Imagine if the Japanese army attacked five brigades from the direction of Wuyi, how many miles would be? It is not ten miles? I remind you that if your troops were bitten by the Japanese army, they might be completely wiped out by the Japanese army!"
Zhang Junhao has fought so many battles, why don’t he know the danger of this battle? But he seems to be born to fight the Japanese. No matter how difficult the battle is, he will continue to fight. But there are indeed major problems. Lieutenant General Luo Juntong’s concerns are reasonable. How many troops will the Japanese army dispatch? When will it be dispatched? What are the marching routes? What tactics are used? Now I only know that all the captains of the Japanese 22nd Division held a meeting under the auspices of the Chief Staff of the 13th Army, Gu Kikijiro, and the others know nothing about it.
How to fight this battle? When the Japanese army drove over, it rushed forward. The team of 500 people seemed to be flying moths to the fire, seeking death?
Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you be able to win a hundred battles. Now you don’t know the situation of the enemy at all. This battle is indeed too difficult to fight.
Zhang Junhao fell into deep thought.
Along the way, Lieutenant General Luo Juntong and Zhang Junhao both looked good.
When Lieutenant General Luo Juntong got off the car in Jinyun, he said to Zhang Junhao: "I will express my opinion to you. No matter how many Japanese troops attack, my 21st Division will definitely fight the Japanese army to the end. If possible, I will pre-built the coffin and express to the entire division that I am determined to sacrifice my country for my life."
Zhang Junhao nodded and said, "I am ready to die in battle every battle, okay! You prepare the coffin! I am not prepared, I don't want to die yet, the Japanese army will not be eliminated. If I die in battle, I will die with my eyes open. The 21st Division is my mother's family. In order to protect my mother's army, I would rather let the entire melee team die in battle than let the mother's army be eliminated by the Japanese army."
After Lieutenant General Luo Juntong got off the car, Zhang Junhao continued to take Lieutenant General Luo Juntong's car to Yongkang.
At around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Junhao returned to Yongkang team headquarters. After a brief lunch, he talked to Colonel Zhang Boliang in the office.
Zhang Junhao said: "We are very passive and do not know the enemy's situation at all."
Colonel Zhang Boliang said: "Mr. Li only told us the information about the meeting of the 22nd Division. The Japanese 22nd Division attack on Yongkang was our conjecture. If the information is not accurate, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Zhang Junhao sighed and said, "I can't get the specific information of the Japanese army! This battle can only be fought passively!"
After Zhang Junhao and Colonel Zhang Boliang had a conversation, both of them frowned. Without the specific information of the Japanese army, this battle was difficult to fight. If this battle was not done well, the special melee team would be killed!
Just as the two were in a state of anxiety, Wang Jinxian came and said with a smile: "The spy woman was actually delivered to the door. Captain, should the deputy captain arrest this spy woman?"
Colonel Zhang Boliang stood up with a smile and said, "Immediately arrest this spy and interrogate it strictly, so as to ensure that valuable information about the 22nd Division of the Japanese Army can be pried out from her mouth."
Zhang Junhao quickly stood up and said loudly: "Slowly! Why are you arresting me? They are here to visit me and invite her to see me. When we are together, we will not ask you to come in, and no one is allowed to come in."
Colonel Zhang Boliang stamped his feet and said loudly: "You are dancing with wolves. You can lose your life by playing like this. She assassinated you. Just now, Nanzao Yunzi poisoned you again. Please avoid it. Mitsui Natsuko came this time. If the purpose was to murder you, wouldn't you lead the wolf into the house? If you were killed by Mitsui Natsuko, our special melee team would not have to fight and be finished immediately."
Zhang Junhao smiled and waved his hand and said, "I know this spy very well, and I know very well. You only think about the bad side, why don't you think about the good side? What if she came to send me information?"
Colonel Zhang Boliang smiled bitterly and said, "You made a big joke. Mitsui Naruko is the head of the 'Tiger' organization. The purpose of this organization is to deal with you and our special melee team. How could she send you information? Don't even think about it."
