    In order to expand the military as much as possible, Yang Zhen drew on the experience of the American college student officer corps. In the upcoming World War II, the number of U.S. troops has expanded dramatically by hundreds or thousands of times. It is simply impossible to expand the military in the extreme with only a few limited military academies.  Cultivate a large number of qualified officers in a short period of time

    It was the Reserve Officer Training Corps established by the United States in various universities that trained a large number of qualified officers for the United States during World War II. This enabled the U.S. military to expand without a shortage of officers. It prepared the skeleton for the expansion of the U.S. military and only needed to fill it with flesh and blood.  A huge army appeared in front of everyone

    Although there are very few internal universities in the base area, it is almost impossible to rely on local universities to cultivate a large number of reserve officers like Americans do. There are only a few college students, and Yang Zhen is reluctant to let them go to the battlefield. However, there are still a lot of junior high schools and high schools.  of

    Relying on these young students can effectively solve the problem of low cultural quality and difficulty in training grassroots commanders. But again, all of this requires a lot of time. Without enough time, it is impossible to complete these preparations, especially the training of a large number of commanders.  time

    If North Manchuria is lost, the Japanese high-level officials can still barely accept it. If the Anti-Japanese Alliance poses a threat to South Manchuria, which has built huge industries and has become the most important industrial and economic lifeline for the Japanese army to launch war, then it will not be the only Kwantung Army that cannot accept it.  Got it

    The coal and iron resources in Benxi, Liaoyang, and Anshan, the magnesium mines in Dashiqiao, the molybdenum, lead-zinc mines in western Liaoning, and the huge industry are one of the most important industrial bases on which the Japanese army relies. Once the industrial base in South Manchuria is lost, Japan alone will  Homegrown industry simply cannot sustain its war potential

    If the Japanese want to continue the war, then the industrial zone in southern Manchuria will be an extremely vital lifeline for them. And Yang Zhen is not arrogant enough to think that the Americans will not be involved simply based on his own current situation.  Strength can completely defeat the Kwantung Army

    Yang Zhen is very aware of the overall gap between the Anti-Japanese Alliance and the Japanese army. Even if it is described as a huge difference, it is a bit exaggerated. Not to mention that the industrial zone is under construction. Even if the construction is completed, the current industrial strength of Northern Manchuria alone cannot be compared with Japan.

    At present, a considerable part of the strength of the Japanese army is still restrained on the battlefield within the Kwantung region. Moreover, neither Japan's entire national economy nor the entire Japanese people have entered into wartime physique. Once the Kwantung Army is severely damaged, the Japanese army will inevitably have to maintain its lifeline in Manchuria and Mongolia.  We must mobilize the whole country to fight back against the Anti-Japanese Alliance

    At that time, even if they try their best to mobilize, the Anti-Japanese Alliance, which can only mobilize four to five million troops, can resist it. At present, the Anti-Japanese Alliance can only barely maintain its local advantage over the Kwantung Army, but overall, this advantage is comparable to that of the Kwantung Army.  No. It can almost be said that there is no big difference.

    The most important thing is that Yang Zhen does not want to go to the fire for the Americans. If it is not for the future preparations and the use of North China's huge human resources to supplement the already relatively depleted troop sources in the base area, Yang Zhen will adopt active defense tactics this year instead of letting the Japanese take all the troops.  focus on yourself

    At least for now, we do not hope that the Japanese will use their own power to deal with the Americans to confront the whole of Japan. Yang Zhen believes that he does not have the strength yet, and without involving the Americans, Yang Zhen will not be able to take advantage of the rare opportunity of World War II to build China.  own modern industrial base

    If you want to draw Americans into the whirlpool of blood and fire of World War II as we know the history, the sooner it will be beneficial to you. If you let the Japanese army lose too much vitality at this time, it will be very detrimental to your overall future development.  Adverse

    Moreover, South Manchuria is not only about the Eastern Army, but also the Korean Army in the east, the Japanese Army in the South and the North China Front in North China, who may all go north to join the war when necessary. If during the first phase of the battle, the troops cause excessive casualties during the battle, then the second phase  In the second stage, facing the almost certain Japanese counterattack, how can we continue this battle?

    For Yang Zhen   As the headquarters of the Kwantung Army and the capital of the Puppet Manchukuo, Xinjing is indeed a flag for the Japanese army to rule the Northeast. But apart from this and its slightly important strategic position, it is nothing. If Yang Zhen risks paying too heavy a price  The danger of the price. To capture such a city just for some symbols, he would never do it.

    Capturing Xinjing, the headquarters of the Kwantung Army and the capital of the Puppet Manchukuo, will indeed be a great boost to the morale of the national resistance war. It will also completely establish the name of the Anti-Japanese Alliance internationally. But for Yang Zhen, face cannot be solved.  fundamental problem

    Let Yang Zhen take tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of casualties to exchange for a city that has no great significance except for its reputation. This price is a bit too heavy for Yang Zhen. For Yang Zhen, it is better to pay a considerable price to attack this city.  It is better for the Japanese army to concentrate on seizing the grain-producing areas of the Songnen Plain in cities where the Japanese army is heavily fortified. This is of greater practical significance to Yang Zhen.

    Yang Zhenke still clearly remembers the lion's mouth before the Soviet Union, especially now that the Soviet-German war has broken out. After Ukraine, the Soviet Union's main grain-producing area, is lost, the Soviet people's appetite will become bigger and bigger, and they will still have to rely on their external communication lines.  In the case of the Soviets, taking this opportunity to seize the Songnen Plain, one of the most important grain-producing areas in the entire Northeast, would be even more attractive to Yang Zhen.

    Regarding Wang Guangyu's suggestion, Yang Zhen smiled and said: "Old Wang, your idea is good and your vision is very broad. But have you ever thought about what to do if Chen Hanzhang's troops are entangled by the Japanese army and unable to provide full reinforcements during the Western Front operations? Or what?  When encircling and annihilating the heavy Japanese army group north of Xinjing, there were too many casualties. What should I do if I lose the ability to continue combat? "

    "Old Wang, you are also a veteran. You are also very aware of the true combat effectiveness of the Japanese army. If you want to severely damage or even encircle and annihilate these divisions they deployed north of Xinjing, the price we will pay will undoubtedly be very huge. The capture of Xinjing is indeed of great significance.  But from a military perspective, it is not of great practical significance to us. Compared to a city in Xinjing, using this opportunity to seize the main grain producing areas in the Songnen Plain is of far greater significance to us than seizing Xinjing.¡±

    "In fact, even if we cannot recapture Xinjing in this battle, as long as we maintain military pressure around Xinjing, the Kwantung Army's heavy force group will not dare to move in other directions. This will be the most beneficial to our next operation.  Although the Kwantung Army has been defeated by us many times, after all, its current strength still occupies a considerable advantage. "

    "Old Wang, we don't care about the gains and losses of one city or one place. We should focus on annihilating the effective strength of the Japanese army. It is naturally good to take the opportunity to capture Xinjing. If there are no fighter planes, we should not force it, let alone take the capture of Xinjing as the main goal. We can't  Eat a fat man in one bite ¡±

    "The western front mainly focuses on attacking operations to the south. As for the central and eastern fronts, during the feint, the main focus is on annihilating the effective forces of the Japanese army. Conquering cities and seizing territory is not our main goal in a short period of time. Lao Wang still says, for the goal of Xinjing  There is no point in crippling our troops."

    "Our biggest headache now is the problem of troop sources. This is also the main reason why the headquarters wants to complete the opening of the transportation line within the customs by the middle of this year. If we cannot solve the problem of troop sources, we will not be able to achieve real development and growth. The current situation in our base area unless we give up everything  Industrial construction, otherwise it will simply not be able to support the troop supply needs of our army.¡±

    "Old Wang, I can understand your thoughts, but we can't rest on our laurels. In a word, we have to eat one bite at a time, and the road has to be walked step by step. Some goals look very good and quite tempting, but for now we still have to focus on stability and do our best.  And go "

    There are some things that Yang Zhen said very thoroughly, but there are also quite a few words that Yang Zhen did not say, because there are many things that Yang Zhen cannot say, and there is only so much that Yang Zhen can say  The rest must be temporarily suppressed in the heart. Some words cannot be explained clearly if there are too many words. In many cases, vagueness may be the best way to deal with it.

    How else could he tell the two people in front of him that at the end of the year, the Japanese would launch an air attack on the U.S. Pacific Fleet and start a full-scale war with the United States. The reason why he had reservations about this battle was that in addition to the reasons explained before, he also planned to  In the future war between the United States and Japan, more blood should be shed to the Americans. What is more important is to take advantage of this rare opportunity to gain as many benefits as possible from the Americans.

    These things are things that Yang Zhen cannot say openly, and they are even more difficult for him to explain now, because no one can accurately judge the situation in five months, especially the international situation that the Anti-Japanese Alliance is still difficult to contact. If he announces now that five months from now,  A bloody war will break out between the United States and Japan that will last for four years. I am afraid that no one will believe the reasons that can be explained. He has tried his best to explain, but for things that cannot be explained clearly, he can only find ways to fool them for the time being.

    Although many of Yang Zhen's words were vague, Wang Guangyu didn't ask for details after looking at Yang Zhen's slightly frowned brows. He knew that there must be something that No. 1 did not say, because he heard many of the reasons explained by No. 1.  It's obviously far-fetched and some of the words don't even reach the point.

    But out of his understanding and trust of Yang Zhen, Wang Guangyu did not ask too deeply because he knew that no matter what Yang Zhen¡¯s starting point was, he would not let the Anti-Japanese Alliance suffer. There must be a certain reason why he gave up the opportunity to seize Xinjing this time.  He didn't say it, maybe because he didn't have the opportunity.

    Wang Guangyu did not continue to insist on his opinions. Since the merger of the First Army and the Jidong Military Region, apart from the work he was in charge of, he rarely expressed opinions on other issues or even operations. During this meeting, Yang Jingyu, who seemed very silent, would not  say more
