Brilliant Sword: Fighting against the Xixi System One Hundred Thousand Japanese Army

Masanobu Tsuji's speculation is not wrong in common sense.

It is more difficult to resupply the farther away from the base.

The faster the troops move, the less heavy equipment they have.

Mechanized warfare is air-ground integrated warfare.

Why space integration.

This is because the towed heavy artillery will gradually be unable to keep up with the advance speed of the mobile force and needs the support of air power.

But Masanobu Tsuji ignored the secret work that Lu Feng had been doing for the past six months.

Build and support guerrillas.

Infiltrating the back of the little devil and so on.

All the pre-war preparations made by Lufeng have already helped the army aviation unit led by Sun Desheng to solve the food problem.

When Masanobu Tsuji said that Fushun took the lead in occupying Shahe, the headquarters fell silent.

The staff officers thought about it carefully and felt that it did make sense.

Chief of Staff Gibbon was still unconvinced and asked: "There is indeed a certain reason for going out of Fushun to attack Shakou."

"But isn't it too risky for you to ask all the Kwantung Army headquarters to lead the warriors from my brother country to Shahe?"

Masanobu Tsuji slapped the table with a ferocious face, and shouted loudly: "Chief of Staff Yoshimoto, can't you see it?"

"Tubalu is going to have a life-and-death strategic battle with us!"

"In strategic decisive battles since ancient times, legion commanders must come to the front line in person and fight to the death!"

Masanobu Tsuji's words are not wrong. Since ancient times, the commanders of the strategic decisive battle corps have always stood on the front line and participated in the decisive battle in person.

Bai Qi fought in Changping, Xiang Yu broke the boat, Han Xin fought his last battle, Liu Xiu attacked Kunyang, Cao Cao fought against Wuchao at night, and Zhou Yu burned Chibi.

This kind of large-scale strategic decisive battle almost always reaches the point where the commander of the military region serves as the commando captain.

Therefore, there is no problem with Tsuji Masanobu letting Umezu Yoshijiro go to the front line to command.

Umezu Yoshijiro said with a serious expression: "I think what Tsuji-kun said makes sense."

"Now Tuba Road has occupied Xinlitun, Zhangwu, Xinmin, and Tongliao."

"The next ones may be Tieling, Kaiyuan, and Siping."

"The Tieling Siping line is a great plain, which is conducive to mobile operations on the Tuba Road."

"Moreover, after the Tuba Road occupies Xinmin, it will definitely rely on the city defense to stop the increase of the [-] brother country warriors currently in the Liaoxi Corridor."

"So if we want to break through Tieling, Kaiyuan, and Siping, relying on the troops we can mobilize now is far from enough."

"So, we can take a detour to the east and leave Fushun to take Shahe from Tuba Road again!"

Masanobu Tsuji said: "Since Tubalu and Maoxiong want to kill us together, we must first choose a side to start the war!"

"I think the warriors from the neighboring country on the border should be transferred to the hinterland of the Northeast, to fight the Tuba Road first, and then fight the Mao Xiong."

Chief of Staff Gibbon seemed to think that he was not stupid enough, and asked: "We are confronting Mao Xiong's troops on the border, why don't we have a decisive battle with Mao Xiong first!"

"We must first transfer the 30 warriors of the Kwantung Army back to the hinterland of Northeast China."

"After the decisive battle with Tubalu, we will have a decisive battle with Mao Xiong!"

Tsuji Masanobu said contemptuously: "I really can't imagine how a stupid guy like Chief of Staff Yoshimoto was promoted to the position of Chief of Staff of the Kwantung Army."

"This should have been done by a more capable person, not someone who relied on seniority to spend time."

"This will only cause irreparable losses to my brother country!"

Chief of Staff Yoshimoto heard Tsuji Masanobu's positive contempt and ridicule, and slapped the table angrily: "Hachi! What did Tsuji Masanobu say!"

Masanobu Tsuji showed a disdainful smile on his face: "Am I not right?"

"I really didn't expect that in the general headquarters of the Kwantung Army, among the most outstanding staff in the world, someone would ask such a stupid question as to why the Tuba Road was attacked first."

"The answer is simple!"

"First of all, if we don't shrink our troops first, Tuba Road will cut off our logistics supply line."

"Let us not be able to provide supplies to the elite Kwantung Army brother country at the border!"

"Secondly, if we attack Mao Xiong first, don't forget that Mao Xiong's strategic depth is very broad."

"We can run if we hit them!"

"Do you want to pursue at this time?"

"If you pursue it, the vast strategic space behind you will be quickly occupied by Tuba Road."

"At that time, the vast territory of Maoxiong will be in front, and the supply line will be cut off by Tuba Road in the back!"

"How should this kind of battle be fought!"

"Of course we should ignore Mao Xiong first, immediately shrink our forces, and take the lead in annihilating the Tuba Road in the hinterland of the Northeast!"

"Open the north-south channel and ensure the stability of the supply line, so that we can fight the bear with peace of mind."

"If we fight Mao Xiong when there is Tubalu behind us all the time making trouble, we will definitely fall into the predicament of being surrounded by faces!"

"So we must now immediately send a telegram to all the warriors of our brother countries who are at the border, telling them to evacuate the border immediately."

"Go to Xinjing and Jilin."

"Leading all the troops we can gather now, we headed towards Shahe."

"Attack on both sides at the same time, ready to violate the construction and soil!"

Umezu Yoshijiro also agreed with Tsuji Masanobu's opinion: "Yo Xi! Good idea! I will send our discovery and battle plan to the staff headquarters and the base camp immediately!"

Tsuji Masanobu originally wanted to persuade Umezu Yoshijiro to act immediately, otherwise it may delay the opportunity of the war.

But seeing Chief of Staff Gibbon's dark complexion and his murderous expression, he kept his mouth shut.

It has to be said that Masanobu Tsuji has a deep understanding of Lu Feng after studying the various battles that Lu Feng has commanded.

Indeed, because of the telegram sent to the General Staff Headquarters and the base camp, the little devil's last time window was completely closed.

At nine o'clock in the morning on May 5th, in Tokyo, in the base camp of the Army Department, all the old devils gathered again.

There was only one issue discussed.

That was the telegram from Yoshijiro Umezu.

After reading the telegram, Sugiyama put it aside, looked at Hideki Tojo and asked, "How much do you think it is possible for Tubalu and Mao Xiong to jointly attack the Northeast?"

"We have not received any information about the activities of Mao Xiong on the northeast border."

"And Mao Xiong's telegram transmission frequency on the northeast border is also very normal, there is no sudden increase or decrease!"

Hideki Tojo shook his head and said, "It's hard to say!"

"If it is key information and combat plans, it will definitely not be communicated by telegram."

"Of course, it may also be that our equipment is not advanced enough to intercept it."

Of course, key information and combat plans will not be communicated by telegram.

Even if the telegram is encrypted, the telegram is like shouting to the whole world, and everyone can hear it.

The chances of deciphering will be greatly increased.

Therefore, key combat plan opportunities will not be sent by telegram.
