    Chapter 202

    Gao Sheng stood in front of the car, hesitated and said, "Fushuai, there is something urgent. Can we talk about it in the car?"

    Fang Jianxiong was startled for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll get in your car." After saying that, he turned and walked towards Gao Sheng's car. Gao Sheng quickly opened the door and got in the car.  Fang Jianxiong waited for the car door to close and said, "Speak!"

    Gao Sheng said: "When our army formed the mechanized army, it referred to the armored force establishments of the French and Soviet armies. Although our army has shrunk, after actual combat testing, the adaptation is still too bloated. This is among the top ten numbers.  It is obvious in the armored division that the biggest problem is that the logistics pressure is too great. Liu and Xia once said that 12+1 is appropriate for each tank company, and two tank regiments for each mechanized division is the logistics limit.  The operation of the current organization mainly depends on our army's preparations before the war. Now that the battle lines have moved, many tanks have become decorations because they do not have enough fuel."

    Gao Sheng said it very carefully, and Fang Jianxiong broke out in cold sweat on his forehead. The original establishment of the mechanized army was indeed influenced by the establishment of France and the Soviet Union.  "I'm very strange, why did you wait until the war started to say this? Why didn't those two bastards say it before? I don't believe it. The two of them have been chief officers of the mechanized force for a long time. How could they not notice at all that there is a problem with the organization?  "Fang Jianxiong's voice became stern. Gao Sheng shrank his neck and said with a smile: "You decided this matter. Aren't we here to protect your dignity?"

    "To put it bluntly, these bastards know that this organization is not good, but they don't want to say it, right? Who doesn't want to be more powerful? They waited until the war and realized that this was not possible before they bravely said it. They are still claiming to protect my prestige.  Excuse. Do you know how much armor steel was imported from the United States in order to form these mechanized armies? Even in order to form these mechanized armies, the Navy's shipbuilding plan has been seriously affected. None of you bastards have my best interests at heart.  ." Fang Jianxiong was angry, eating from the bowl and looking at the pot.  It was always what Fang Jianxiong disliked the most.  In fact, this is a problem of preparation.  When the 11th to 15th Mechanized Corps were newly formed, some people had already pointed out that there were problems with the organization. Therefore, one tank battalion of the five newly formed corps only had 54 tanks, instead of the previous regiment with three battalions, each with 54 tanks.  A battalion of 88 vehicles.

    Gao Sheng didn't dare to accept this, and Fang Jianxiong could still be angry.  It means the problem is not big.  At the same time, I was secretly glad that I took the initiative to speak out, otherwise I would definitely be unlucky after the battle.

    "Don't pretend to be scared, you bastards, don't I know it yet? Let's make adjustments after this battle is over. Just in time to retire some old Great Wall-3 tanks." Fang Jianxiong still didn't mean to go into details.  , the direct line is the direct line.  This national defense force can always operate in accordance with Fang Jianxiong's instructions.  It is inseparable from the die-hard loyalists like his direct descendants.

    This phenomenon was actually caused by Fang Jianxiong. The reason is very simple. Without the army in hand, the Republic of China after 1911 would accidentally lead to a situation of warlord separatism.  Even though he later conquered the whole country by force and implemented the nationalization of the army.  In fact, this army still takes orders from Fang Jianxiong, rather than from the President and Congress.  Fang Jianxiong was helpless.  Because he has no military power, it is not easy for him to do anything he wants to do.  Since the Republic of China, it is still essentially a dictatorship. The reason why it maintains a democratic air is for the future.  The essence of dictatorship is for efficiency.

    The problem now is that with efficiency, the problems of the military have also been exposed.  Fang Jianxiong kept this matter in mind calmly. The nationalization of the military still needs a subtle process and cannot be controlled.  Managing a big country is like cooking small dishes. China has emerged from a semi-feudal and semi-colonial country, and many things can only be done slowly.

    When the car arrived at the hotel where they were staying, Fang Jianxiong opened the door and got out of the car, opened the door for Alice, and then pestered her to get in.  This look is just for others to see, it can also be said to be a show.  In fact, you can also bring other women, but the effect is not as good as bringing Alice.

    There are dozens of people in the president¡¯s entourage, so naturally there will be people to receive him.  After settling in, Fang Jianxiong slowly asked about the situation in Siberia. After all, it would be better to ask in person in the capital.

    Gao Sheng had done his homework and said without opening his mouth: "In this battle, our army wiped out about 100,000 enemies, which basically achieved the purpose of the campaign. The main purpose of the battle now is to encircle and annihilate more than 300,000 Soviet troops who were besieged by our army.  There are about 100,000 Novosibirsk garrison troops. The battle should have ended long ago, but heavy snow fell, and our army's offensive was forced to stop. The sudden drop in temperature caused a lot of frostbite among the troops, and the non-combat casualty was over 30,000. Fortunately,  , our army's equipment has targeted cold-resistant measures when it is developed, and the combat effectiveness of the army is not greatly affected. The current situation is that Chuikov, whose main force has been severely damaged, can only organize the defense line with Omsk as the core, and we  The Soviet army is unable to advance westward before solving the trapped Soviet army. It can be expected that the Soviet army, which lacks supplies, will be difficult to sustain for long under such weather conditions. Especially when our air force and ground forcesUnder the heavy firepower of the Soviet troops, it was difficult for the Soviet troops to find a place to stay, and the battle was expected to continue for about half a month.  Since the date of dispatch, our army has suffered a total of approximately 120,000 casualties, including more than 30,000 dead soldiers.  This does not include non-combat attrition, which shows the power of the severe Siberian winter.  "

    "Okay, you go and do your business. Don't pay too much attention to me here. Fly back quickly to deal with the Soviet army as soon as possible, and then take the initiative to organize defense for the winter with Novosibirsk as the core for the coming year." Fang Jianxiong felt a burning pain in his heart.  Although such a large number of casualties was expected, it was still sad after truly understanding the data.  For him, the number of casualties can only be regarded as numbers. This is a national war, and there is no room for mercy.

    After Gao Sheng stood up to say goodbye, Fang Jianxiong leaned back on the sofa. Chief staff officer Chen Bulei came over and whispered: "President, there is a call from the Central Asian Front Army. The mechanized troops under Liu Mingzhao's command came out in full force and attacked Bukhara and Karsi respectively.  Samarkand has been besieged on all sides. Last night, Chen Mingren's troops broke into the city and engaged in fierce street battles with the Soviet army, causing heavy casualties. In short, Zhukov's action was expected by our army. There are about 130,000 troops under his command.  Retreat toward the southwest. Before retreating, the Soviet army burned warehouses and blew up bridges. Our mechanized troops are limited by logistical supplies and are currently advancing slowly. It is expected that the Tenth Mechanized Army will reach the city of Kalsi in three days. Li Zongren's troops have already arrived  Under the city of Bukhara, they immediately entered into a critical battle. The Soviet army resisted fiercely here, and our army made slow progress. Liu Mingzhao asked all armies to eliminate the trapped Soviet troops as soon as possible at any cost and then switch to defense, so as to turn around and eat the trapped Soviet troops in Tashkent.  .¡±

    Fang Jianxiong closed his eyes to rest his mind, and Chen Brai quietly retreated out. The moment the door closed, he heard the president sigh.  The Soviet Union was still too big, and Fang Jianxiong felt that he had acted too hastily.  With enough room for maneuver and a steady stream of domestic supplements, Zhukov and Chuikov will be very difficult opponents.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????: 2019 or 1999  I don¡¯t know how Roosevelt would feel when he saw his price list.

    "This is a scoundrel!" Roosevelt angrily threw the telegram on the table. Unfortunately, he was lame and could not stand up in anger.

    Hopkins looked helpless, and the price offered by Fang was indeed too cruel.  Provide no less than 2 billion U.S. dollars in material assistance each year, and require the current year's materials to be paid in advance before forming an alliance with the United States.  This is not called taking advantage of the situation.

    "Franklin, I think we can agree to him. Use the lack of time as an excuse to pay him first for some supplies, such as P-39 fighter jets. Neither the Navy nor the Air Force are willing to use them. They still take up space in the warehouse. The aluminum materials that the Chinese urgently need,  We can also pay first.¡±

    "Strategically, if we want to defeat Germany, the Soviet Union is our best ally. Does this scoundrel think I can't ally with the Soviet Union?" Roosevelt slammed the table in anger, which was actually an angry statement.  The reason is obvious. Once China is pushed into the embrace of Germany, the British will not be able to agree. Churchill may be anxious to jump into the sea.  Think about it, millions of Chinese troops are marching from Burma into India, what can the British do to stop them?

    "Franklin, don't get excited. According to the report of the forward military observation team, the Chinese have wiped out at least one million Soviet troops in Central Asia so far. The Soviet Union is not as powerful as we imagined. Stalin's troops are facing the fierce force of the Chinese  The attack was retreating, and the Chinese team was almost reaching the Caspian Sea."

    After some persuasion, Roosevelt remained silent, and so did the other staff.  In fact, anyone who knows Roosevelt knows that at this time Roosevelt had accepted Hopkins's opinion, and the only possibility was how to delay it.

    At this time, Secretary of State Hull opened the door like a gust of wind and came in: "Kimmel called and found traces of the Japanese Combined Fleet."

    After the alliance between Britain and the United States, the Japanese Navy had to make adjustments. It was no longer realistic to continue attacking India. The U.S. Pacific Fleet was not a display.  So the Japanese Navy formulated a battle plan to capture Midway Island and use it as a springboard to attack Hawaii, the home base of the U.S. Pacific Fleet.

    The U.S. Navy is also thinking about how to destroy the Japanese Combined Fleet. There was no sneak attack on Pearl Harbor in this time and space. The strength of the U.S. Pacific Fleet has not been damaged at all, so how can it be afraid of the Japanese Combined Fleet.

    The Japanese Navy, which took action first, bombed Midway Island with aircraft and naval guns. The U.S. Pacific Fleet arrived. It was under this premise that a fierce battle broke out between the Chinese and American navies.

    "Okay guys, it seems we have to put aside the China issue for now." Roosevelt patted the table, pushed his wheelchair to the map, and squinted to find the small island in the North Pacific.  Upon seeing this, Hopkins stopped talking and remained silent.
