Xu Rui hurried in and asked: "Old Wang, what did the shadow say?"
Wang Husheng handed over the telegram and said: "It wasn't the military commander who did it, it was No. 76! I was surprised before. No matter how impatient the military commander is, and no matter how stupid Dai Li is, he will never make trouble for us at this time, because the secret front After all, it is not a frontal front, and the secret front especially requires cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party."
"No. 76?" Xu Rui said ferociously, "It seems that the lesson I taught them last time was not enough. Anyway, after this offensive operation is over and Langya is trained, we will go to Shanghai again. This time , I must uproot No. 76 Jisi Feier, as the dog calls me, and Ding Mo Village, Li Shiqun, etc., all must die!"
Wang Husheng said again: "But what to do with these fuses? Shadow can't transport them back alone."
"This is really a big problem." Xu Rui frowned and said, "Is the Shanghai Special Committee really unable to spare manpower?"
Wang Husheng sighed and said: "Old Xu, it's not that we can't spare manpower, but that we have no manpower at all. This operation on the 76th was very well organized. There was no news at all in advance. The Shanghai Special Committee's action team suffered very heavy losses." , more than 20 team members were ordered to go to the west of Shanghai to rescue the fortress households, but in the end only two returned alive."
"The loss is so heavy." Xu Rui asked, "Is Wu Han okay?"
"I didn't ask about this." Wang Husheng said, "But with Dr. Wu's death, it should be fine."
Xu Rui added: "The action team of the Shanghai Special Committee has just suffered such a heavy loss, and it is definitely impossible to recover its strength in a short time. But today is already the tenth day of the first lunar month, and it is far from the Lantern Festival dispatch date we agreed with Commander Li. There are only five days left, and it’s too late to go to Shanghai with Langya now.”
Wang Husheng said: "It will definitely be too late for Langya to go to Shanghai."
Xu Rui's brows immediately wrinkled. Even though he was resourceful, he was at a loss at this moment.
Just when Xu Rui and Wang Husheng were at a loss what to do, there was a knock on the door suddenly. Wang Husheng turned around and said, "Please come in."
The door opened, and Mei Jiuling, who was wearing a flight suit, walked in with a gust of cold wind. He first gave Xu Rui and Wang Husheng a military salute, and then asked: "Commander, why did the logistics department stop our aviation fuel?"
Mei Jiuling is now the commander of the First Armored Regiment, but he is also the commander of the flying company, and he is still in charge of the daily training work of the flying company.
Seeing that the First Armored Regiment had been formed and the training was on the right track, Mei Jiuling's work gradually shifted to the flying company. At present, the flying company still only has one Type 95 carrier-based fighter jet, plus one Type 95 carrier-based fighter jet. A Type 6 land attack aircraft, and this Type 96 land attack aircraft has never taken to the sky since it was carried back to Dameishan.
Mei Jiuling and the cadet soldiers of the flying company wanted to fly over, but Xu Rui wouldn't let them.
Xu Rui refused because the Type 96 land attack aircraft consumed too much fuel. One flight of the Type 96 land attack aircraft was enough for the Type 95 carrier-based fighter to fly ten times.
But even for the Type 95 carrier-based fighter, the flight company cannot fly open.
However, even if it can't be opened to fly, it can still get into the sky every now and then. But now, the logistics department has directly stopped the fuel of the flight company, preventing it from flying.
This time Mei Jiuling refused and came to complain to Xu Rui.
Unexpectedly, it was not Xiao Yanyue who ordered the grounding, but Xu Rui.
"Run out of fuel." Xu Rui was annoyed, and immediately said angrily, "What else can we do if we don't stop flying?"
"That's not right." Mei Jiuling had already secretly inspected the warehouse of the Logistics Department and protested, "There are obviously several tons of aviation fuel in the warehouse of the Logistics Department."
Xu Rui became more and more irritable, frowned and said, "That's reserve oil for combat, not for training."
Mei Jiuling said: "Our flight company does not have to undertake combat missions, so what kind of combat readiness fuel do we need?"
"How can you be sure that the flying company will not have to take on combat missions? What if the offensive operation during the Lantern Festival requires the flying company to participate in the battle? What will happen if there is no combat readiness oil?" Xu Rui said with a snort.
When Mei Jiuling heard this, he immediately became energetic and said, "Commander, will the flying company also participate in this offensive?"
"That's what I said, but I didn't say that the flight company must go up." Xu Rui frowned and said, "Then again, wouldn't your flight company be ready for war if you don't have to go to the battlefield?"
Mei Jiuling left disappointed, but Wang Husheng said: "This scholar Mei really dares to think."
"Dare you think about it?" Wang Husheng said without intention, but Xu Rui's heart suddenly moved slightly when he heard it.
Wang Husheng had been working with Xu Rui for a long time, and gradually became familiar with Xu Rui's temper style. He asked in surprise: "Old Xu, have you come up with any tricks?"
Xu Rui hummed slightly and said, "Perhaps, we can airlift those fuses back to Dameishan."
"What? Airlifted back to Dameishan?" Wang Husheng was stunned and said, "Old Xu, are you kidding me?"
No wonder Wang Husheng was surprised. Their Dameishan Military Division actually had a Type 96 long-range bomber. If the space inside the cabin was cleared, the fuses for the artillery shells purchased from the United States could indeed be loaded into the bomber cabin and then transported back. Dameishan, but the question is, what should I do if the little devil doesn't cooperate
First, how do you ensure that the Japs will not send out fighter jets to shoot down your bombers? Maybe, the Type 96 long-range bomber of their Dameishan Military Division had just taken off, and the Japs' Central China Condemnation Army Headquarters had already received the news and launched fighter jets from various airports to intercept it.
Second, even if the Japanese do not send fighter jets to intercept, even if the bombers of the Dameishan Military Division fly to Shanghai, how will you land? Which airport did you land at? Will the kid's airport let you land? Even if you are allowed to land, security forces will probably be dispatched immediately to detain the plane.
Third, even if Xu Rui deceived the Japanese and allowed the Type 96 long-range bomber of the Dameishan Military Division to land in Shanghai, how could Jun Nakamura transport those fuses to the airport? Even if Shun Nakamura cooperates, even if Xu Rui successfully implements tactical deception, it is bound to be impossible to stay at the airport for too long. So, how to ensure that the fuse is installed on the plane
Wang Husheng couldn't imagine how to solve so many problems. It was simply impossible!
Wang Husheng asked these questions, but Xu Rui shook his head and said, "Old Wang, you should change your mind."
"Change your thinking?" Wang Husheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said, "How to change it? You can tell me."
Xu Rui said happily: "As you said, it is indeed very difficult to use our own bombers to go to Shanghai. There are so many links, and if there is a problem in any one of the links, the entire action plan will immediately fall short, so This path is definitely not possible.”
"Yes." Wang Husheng said, "But besides this, do you have any other tricks?"
"Of course." Xu Rui said cheerfully, "Why can't we use the Japanese plane?"
"What, use a Japanese plane?" Wang Husheng was stunned when he heard this, and said blankly, "You mean, let Shadow find a way to get a plane and transport the fuse back to Damei Mountain?"
"I'm afraid Shadow doesn't have this energy." Xu Rui shook his head and said, "He is just a secret service chief. I'm afraid he can't control the flying regiment of the Condemnation Army in Central China, so this road is also blocked."
Wang Husheng said: "Then you just said that you would use the Japs' plane?"
Xu Rui chuckled and said: "The shadow doesn't have this energy, doesn't it mean I don't have it?"
Wang Husheng became even more stunned and said: "Old Xu, is it possible that you have another trump card?"
"I really don't have a trump card, but I have this!" Xu Rui pointed to his brain and said, "Old Wang, do you still remember the news about the Kwantung Army that we saw a while ago?"
"News about the Kwantung Army?" Wang Husheng thought for a moment and said, "Are you talking about the Kwantung Army's formation of an armored division?"
"Yes, that's it." Xu Rui nodded with a smile. This is another butterfly effect caused by Xu Rui's little butterfly.
In the original history, Ishihara Kanji, who was the deputy chief of staff of the Kwantung Army at the time, was transferred back to the country because of a conflict with the chief of staff Hideki Tojo. After that, although Ishihara Kanji was promoted to lieutenant general , and once served as the division commander of the 16th Division, but was soon dismissed, so he has never performed well.
However, in this time and space, due to the emergence of Xu Rui, the commanders of the Japanese Army in Central China were constantly changing their generals. This continuous change of generals also led to a shortage of personnel in the top brass of the Japanese army. Therefore, Ishihara Wanji once again entered Hirohito and the Japanese base camp. In the high-level view.
Shortly thereafter, Ishihara Kanji was transferred to the Kwantung Army as chief of staff.
Kanji Ishihara and Neji Okamura were one of the few senior generals with strategic thinking among the many generals in Japan. After the old Japanese took office, they immediately began intensive preparations for the war against the Soviet Union.
In order to prepare for war, Ishihara Kanji put forward three guiding opinions and sent dedicated personnel to implement them.
The first is to carry out large-scale construction and construction of fortresses along the Greater and Lesser Khingan Mountains and Changbai Mountains, so that the Japanese army will be invincible in Manchuria immediately; the second is to form large-scale armored corps and aviation corps; the third is to not use Japan's own Under the premise of finance, the Puppet Manchukuo tax revenue and opium trade profits were used to hoard as much combat materials as possible.
Japanese Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro greatly appreciated the Kwantung Army's approach of finding ways to raise combat funds on its own without relying on imperial finances. He specially sent a reporter from the Asahi Shimbun to Manchuria to interview Ishihara Kanji. Ishihara Kanji concealed a lot of information in order not to arouse the Soviet Union's alert. Facts, but there are still many clues.
One of them is about the fact that the Kwantung Army formed an armored division.
This alone is enough for Xu Rui to think of many things. In any case, Xu Rui came from the future world. Not only did he know all the strategic direction choices of the Japanese army during World War II, he also had some knowledge of Ishihara Kanji's character and way of thinking. With a certain understanding, Xu Rui knew that this was a dangerous guy.
Wang Husheng said: "Does the formation of armored divisions by the Kwantung Army have anything to do with us?" (To be continued.)
