Anti-Japanese War: When I get promoted, the system will explode with soldiers

Li Shaoyi knew very well that the bad things happening in Southeast Asia would not have a big impact on the war. After all, the Japanese Empire also had its own storage. It was just that the inability to transport this batch of goods would cause them a lot of trouble and would bring problems to their various production in the next two to three months.

However, Li Shaoyi knew better that if you didn't cause him this trouble, he wouldn't have a headache in two or three months. No matter whether it was two or three months later or four or five months later, as long as it was something that could cause Japan a headache, Li Shaoyi would concentrate on doing it.

"Commander-in-Chief, it's Guo Shaoqiu calling."

When Li Shaoyi was thinking about how to make trouble for the Japanese, Guo Shaoqiu from the Pujiang front called.

"You've only just arrived in Pujiang for less than a week, and my phone lines are practically blowing up with calls from generals praising you. How come you have time to call me today?"

Li Shaoyi said happily that it was a good decision to let this young man command the army.

This guy fought bravely on the battlefield, charging and striking quickly without dragging his feet. In local areas, he inflicted the damage expected of a blitzkrieg, and the Japanese army hated him to the core.

On the other hand, the main generals of the National Army did not care about the orders of the Military Commission. Anyway, Guo Shaoqiu's people went there to help and turned the current situation of the war around. They had to call Li Shaoyi anyway. We will remember this favor.

"Commander-in-Chief, please stop praising me. Who in my position has such weapons and equipment? Soldiers trained like this, as long as their brains are not flawed, can basically achieve such results. I'm calling to report to the Commander-in-Chief. The day after tomorrow morning, I will lead over 6,000 soldiers to Luodian."

Li Shaoyi was counting the days, and it was almost time. The 36th Division could still hold on some time ago, but after a few days, the 36th Division could no longer hold on. It would not be of much use to transfer other troops there. In addition to increasing casualties, it was estimated that they would not be able to hold the Luodian position.

Li Shaoyi had calculated the entire Songhu Garrison Command and realized that it would be difficult for anyone other than Guo Shaoqiu's army to defend it. He had only just mobilized Guo Shaoqiu's army, which meant he had already used all the necessary means.

"Just remember the grudge between the Nationalist government and us. Never show that your troops are heading for Luodian. I have only one request of you, and that is to abandon all distractions and defend Luodian to the death until I give you my order."

Li Shaoyi was well aware of the importance of the Luodian position. As long as our army could keep its position there, Japan would have no way to bypass Pujiang. As time went on, Japan's losses would be even greater.

Pujiang is a coastal city and also the best battlefield for Japan. After all kinds of supplies are unloaded from the ship, they can be immediately transported to the vicinity of the battlefield. Li Shaoyi concluded that this place could not be defended, but the defense of Tianjin had already made Li Shaoyi taste the sweetness. Since the Japanese wanted to make a big move around Pujiang, Li Shaoyi did not mind turning a quick battle into a protracted war.

You Japanese want to end the war in Pujiang in a short time, but I don't want to do that. Anyway, we have the entire mainland of the motherland behind us, so three to four months or even half a year will be no problem. I just don't know if your Japanese shipping can hold on.

During the Battle of Tianjin, our submarines were not yet able to carry out commerce raiding. The navy reported this to Li Shaoyi this morning. Six submarines were divided into two formations and have begun ambushing at sea.

We cannot afford to offend the heavy fleet escort, but as the war becomes more and more intense, many Japanese transport ships can no longer wait to form a formation, and some of them set out alone. We will specifically deal with those that set out alone.

When the Junkers fought the Americans, the Americans made a bold statement: as long as the speed at which I build ships is faster than the speed at which you sink them, then victory in the maritime transport war will definitely belong to us.

Do the Japanese dare to make such a bold statement? Don't dream. Every piece of steel must be purchased from foreign countries. If you can manufacture faster than you can sink ships, how can you still be at the bottom of the great powers?

"Please rest assured, Commander-in-Chief, all officers and soldiers of our army will not retreat a single step. Without receiving orders from the headquarters, we will not retreat a single step unless we all die for our country."

Guo Shaoqiu also expressed his opinion to Li Shaoyi. Li Shaoyi had full confidence in their ability to withstand attacks. He had also been training on the Pujiang battlefield for a while and naturally knew the situation on the Pujiang battlefield.

"Okay, I've said all the nice things. Now it's time to make a request. As long as you can defend Luodian for me, you can ask for anything. Don't worry about whether I can do it or how difficult it is for me. I'll beg you to do it. As long as I can get it done, that's all. You have only one responsibility to me, and that is to defend Luodian alive."

When Guo Shaoqiu heard the voice coming from the phone, his eyes became hot.

When serving in the army and fighting, as long as we have such a commander, what battle can we not win?

"We must have air force support over Luodian. My requirements are not high. We need at least four fighters and an equal number of bombers. Reconnaissance aircraft must be available during the day."

Guo Shaoqiu has reduced his requirements to the minimum, and there must be about ten planes in the sky over Luodian at all times.

"continue."

Li Shaoyi thought about it and decided that it should be no problem to allocate one of all the planes currently in Pujiang to supply Guo Shaoqiu. Any loss would be immediately compensated by the island city.

"I need a heavy artillery battery, at least four 155mm howitzers and more than twelve 120mm mortars."

Guo Shaoqiu already had a lot of heavy artillery units under his command, but they were all equipped with 105mm howitzers. The 120mm mortars had basically been used up in the war in the past few days.

"You're being a bit petty. I'll give you a heavy artillery battalion, at least ten 155mm howitzers and more than twenty-four 120mm mortars. If you lose any today, I'll replenish them within ten hours. But you'll have to deal with the artillery issue yourself."

After hearing Li Shaoyi's words, Guo Shaoqiu almost jumped up with joy. With these heavy artillery units on the battlefield, in addition to our own use, we can also support the surrounding brother units with ten 155mm howitzers. On the Songhu battlefield, it was like a tiger with its mouth open, biting whoever it wanted.
