Rebirth of the National Marshal

Since people have elevated this matter to the level of national justice and national integrity, it would seem a bit contrived if we continue to refuse it. Zhang Dashan is not a contrived person. Although he feels that it is a bit excessive for him to lead a lieutenant general and a major general, just like Zhang Fabai said, the country's affairs are the most important thing now. At present, fighting the Japanese devils is the most important thing. We must do anything that is conducive to this matter.

"Well, if that's the case, I'll be the commander-in-chief temporarily. But only the three of us know about it. When issuing orders to the outside, we have to say that it was issued jointly by the three of us. Otherwise, if word gets out, I guess the people from the Ministry of Military Affairs will come to my house and teach me a lesson about the respect of seniority." The system between the military and the party-state is very strict. If a person without an official position is allowed to command a major general and a lieutenant general because of a few casual words, such a thing is definitely not a trivial matter. If it were peacetime, the people from the Ministry of Military Affairs would definitely intervene, but now it is wartime, and the people from the Ministry of Military Affairs may not have the time.

"This is all random. We don't study this thing. What we need to study most now is when can we break into the Luodian area? You also know how great the impact of the entire Luodian area is on the Battle of Shanghai. If we lose this place, then our north and south defense lines will be equivalent to losing a middle support point, and the Japanese can choose any place to advance. They can gather all their troops and directly besiege a place, then our entire front line may be in danger of collapse. That's why the higher-ups are so anxious for us to capture this place immediately, and that's why we sent your most elite army here." There are very few people who are engaged in strategic research in the Sichuan Army, but this Division Commander Zhao has done a good job in building momentum for strategic research, which makes Zhang Dashan look at him with admiration.

"In my opinion, there is definitely no conspiracy or trickery in this area. Our commander-in-chief has said that any conspiracy or trickery is just a paper tiger in the face of absolute strength and is of little use. So I decided to use the power of our security regiment to directly crush them. At one o'clock in the afternoon, our planes will bomb this area, and then blow up their destroyers in the Yangtze River. Then, with our security regiment as the center, you two will cover our flanks, and I think we can take this place back in the afternoon." Zhang Dashan was very disdainful of such combat operations. Although you are very afraid of the ability of the Japanese devils head-on, to our security regiment, they are just a few devils. We have killed many more devils than this.

Sure enough, what this guy said frightened the two generals. Look at their momentum. There are two companies and a field artillery regiment on the front, a total of three regiments with about 6,000 people. They actually want to kill them directly with the strength of a security regiment. We can't match their courage. Generally speaking, it is not easy to achieve a casualty ratio of 1:5 when fighting with the Japanese, especially for these miscellaneous troops, it is considered a victory to achieve a casualty ratio of 1:6.

In the morning, they had more than 3 people, and they attacked for several hours, but in the end, only a few thousand people were left.

Moreover, the Japanese navy had not fired artillery in the morning. If their navy had fired artillery, none of us would have survived and we would have been killed immediately. Let's see how the security team arranged it.

They actually thought of sending planes to sink their warships. I guess only the security corps has such courage and strength. Many people have such ideas, but they don't have the ability to do so. We can't even get planes flying in the sky. Only the security corps has this ability.

In fact, they were not the first wave of troops dispatched to attack here. Three infantry divisions in front of them had already withdrawn. There was no hope of defeating the enemy here. When those three infantry divisions withdrew, more than half of them had suffered casualties.

"As far as I know, fifteen bombers were dispatched to bomb the Japanese warships last time. I wonder how many planes your security team has sent this time. If it is convenient, please tell us so that we can be happy in advance." Being able to bomb the Japanese warships is of course a very happy thing, but what Zhang Fabai is worried about is that the number of their planes is not enough. Although there are not many Chinese air forces in the sky now, he still hopes that the Chinese air force can fight for them.

Commander Zhao of the Sichuan Army on the side was also listening with his ears perked up. To them, the Air Force was a very distant branch of the military. There was no Air Force at all in their army. In the past, they could still see the Chinese Air Force in combat.

However, as the war continues, there are not many Chinese air forces left. It is said that there are still dozens of planes, but they are all used to guard the capital. They will not come here at all. Moreover, those dozens of planes are all old models. If there is any place in the country that still has planes, it is their Chahar local government!

"This time we sent a flying regiment directly here, which should be pretty good. Although this regiment is newly formed, all of their team leaders came from the previous two flying regiments. These new pilots have all flown for 200 hours. We let them come here this time to practice with the Japanese." When Zhang Dashan said this, the two generals next to him almost vomited blood.

Listen to what they said. They actually formed a new flying regiment. We haven't even seen a plane here, but they are so arrogant. They want these people to come here to practice. We are scared to death when we see Japanese planes, but they think the Japanese planes are not that good-looking. They say they are specially for new pilots to practice. It's ridiculous.
