Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Despite Yang Zhen's identity, Pearson, the head of the U.S. military delegation to the Anti-Japanese War, had already reported to this man in detail in Moscow. Before he left the United States, he had also reported Yang Zhen's information in detail.  After seeing it, he was no stranger to Yang Zhen¡¯s identity.

    However, Yang Zhen's too young age still made him a little distrustful of the guy in front of him. He relied on his true abilities to break out this world bit by bit. Since the Revolution of 1911, his many years of experience in China have made him  Intuitively and stubbornly, I believe that the young man in front of me also belongs to the second generation of officials.

    Or he is just a puppet put on the table by someone else. Someone else is actually commanding the battle, because his age is destined that he will not become a qualified general. The guy in front of him is really too young.  , he is so young that it is unbelievable, and at his age, he is just a captain.

    This man was really rude. After questioning Yang Zhen's identity, he also questioned why Yang Zhen terminated the attack and did not report to the Kwantung Army when he thought he was still capable of continuing the attack.  Nan Manchu, the heartland of Manchuria, launched an attack and even gave Yang Zhen a big hat to preserve his strength.

    In response to this man's somewhat sarcastic question, Yang Zhen smiled and did not answer him directly. Instead, he walked into the conference room. Before they started discussing, a picture showing the progress of the battle in various stages had been hung.  In front of the map, he picked up the baton and said: "Major General Joseph Stilwell, I think my experience has long been placed on the desk of the White House."

    "Similarly, my old friend, Colonel Pearson, will also report my situation to the White House in detail more than once. As for whether I am like some people in China, did I reach this position by relying on my military record?  We are where we are today thanks to my father¡¯s kindness, and I think the White House should know that very well.¡±

    "If you insist that my identity as a lieutenant general is somewhat suspicious, then I can only tell you that I am very sorry. My father used to be a small businessman, and now he is just a primary school teacher. He can do nothing for me.  All they did was provide me with study before the war and teach me some principles that I should know as a human being."

    "I don't have such good luck. I have such a man. If I really did, I would never hold hundreds of thousands of troops and hand over a large area of ??land to others without firing a single shot. Let thousands  Thousands of flesh and blood compatriots were ravaged under the iron heel of the invaders."

    After responding to the American major general's poignant questions with the same harsh words, Yang Zhen pointed to the map in front of him with the baton in his hand, introduced the general process of the battle, and then replied: "As for this  Why did we terminate this battle when the overall situation on the battlefield was favorable? "

    "I think anyone who has basic combat common sense and has experience in commanding a large corps in combat, rather than being a mere theoretical expert, will understand after listening to my brief introduction and seeing this map. Of course, if you have that  If you don¡¯t understand, I can explain it again in detail.¡±

    "This map has shown the specific locations of our army's various divisions at the end of the battle, as well as the locations of each division of the Japanese army. I think that since all of you here are senior officers, the meaning shown on this map does not need to be  Let me explain more."

    "If we continue to attack, the dangers our attacking troops in Western Manchuria will face have been fully demonstrated on this map. Once we continue to attack, the supply line will be too long, and after a long battle  Our overtired army may not only be unable to make progress, but may be cut off and surrounded in Western Manchuria.¡±

    "Everyone can say that, even if I have never been on the battlefield, as long as I know some military skills, I can still talk about the truth in front of the battle map, but theory is not reality, and you are not us, no matter how high the theory is,  But you can¡¯t really know how to fight if you haven¡¯t been on the battlefield for a day.¡±

    Yang Zhen's equally bitter reply before, and the last sentence of this paragraph, anyone who is not a fool can clearly hear a certain sentence in it. It is a mockery of a certain man who has no experience in commanding a large corps. He can say quite mean things, so that  The U.S. Army Major General's face immediately turned red.

    This American major general who has never fought on the battlefield knows very well what Yang Zhen is referring to. He is honored that no one except himself is qualified for this qualification. If he does not understand Chinese, he will  It's better. Pearson, who is a temporary guest translator, can be improved a bit, but this guy is quite proficient in Chinese.

    "But when Yang Zhen's last words came out, everyone else present, including those involved in the negotiations of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, couldn't help but look at each other. They obviously didn't expect it.The young commander in front of him and the U.S. Army major general were obviously at odds with each other. At the very least, they disliked each other.

    As soon as the negotiation started, the fight started before specific issues were touched upon. Although it was not made public, who are the people here, including those British people, that is not human sperm, the overt and covert meaning in these words  , everyone can understand, and since they started fighting like this, no one can guarantee what the quarrel will be like later.

    Although this war of words was started by the American major general, everyone, including the British generals, felt immediately that this young but sharp-tongued man, even in his mouth,  It might be difficult to deal with the guy who doesn't give in even at the head.

    The political commissar was on the side. Although he did not speak, he looked at Yang Zhen and shook his head in silence. It was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with Yang Zhen's harsh and harsh answer. Everyone is sitting here for negotiation.  It's not a quarrel. Even if someone's words are a bit harsh, you can't seize the opportunity and slap them in the face.

    Compared with the somewhat dissatisfied old commander, General Wavell, the head of the British delegation who had already understood the conversation between the two people through an interpreter, looked at him sitting next to him, and his face turned red at this time.  Stilwell frowned and quickly changed the unpleasantness caused by the topic of Yang Zhen's age. Before the Major General Stilwell got angry, he quickly changed the topic back to the battlefield.

    He walked to the large battle map next to Yang Zhen, carefully looked at the situation on the map with the help of the translator beside him, and said: "General Yang, since you are a senior commander, you should know what is happening on the battlefield.  A lot of what happened cannot be fully represented on a map.¡±

    "First of all, judging from the map of your situation with the Japanese army at the end of this battle, it cannot be seen that you have lost the ability to continue the offensive. Indeed, before the end of this battle, the Japanese army was in southern Manchuria and Central China.  The density of the mass along the long railway is already quite high, creating considerable pressure on you to launch subsequent attacks."

    "But your two armored brigades, which have advanced to the Linxi and Tongliao areas respectively, and have a large number of cavalry and motorized infantry, can completely attack the western area of ??southern Manchuria, especially the two Japanese divisions in front of Linxi.  The pincer-shaped offensive will completely annihilate them on the front of your Linxi battlefield."

    "At the same time, send a force directly into the heart of Southern Manchuria, cut off the long-distance railway from Fengtian to Xinjing, and completely disrupt the Kwantung Army's deployment in Southern Manchuria. You don't necessarily have to capture a certain place or annihilate how many enemy troops.  As long as you organize a mobile force and disrupt the enemy's deployment, you can create opportunities for the Linxi battlefield. After solving the Linxi battlefield, your real fighter will arrive. "

    "You must know that Xingjing was already semi-surrounded by you at that time. At the same time, you had crossed the Xingtu Railway and were threatening the mountainous areas in eastern South Manchuria. One of your divisions on the western line had penetrated to the west of the Zhongchang Railway, a distance of  Siping is already within easy reach.¡±

    "As for the Japanese division that penetrated behind Tongliao, judging from the number of troops around it, it no longer poses any threat to the depth of your western front. If you need it, you can encircle it at any time. In fact,  At the end of the battle, several divisions of the Kwantung Army north of Siping were already semi-surrounded by you. "

    "And since you have invested heavily in the Xinjing battlefield, the Japanese troops around Xinjing are simply unable to take care of other directions and cannot threaten the semi-encirclement situation you have formed on the entire battlefield.  It can be said that they are linked together. Even if the Japanese army in southern Manchuria breaks one of your threats, it will immediately face another threat. "

    "As a British Army General, I have to admit that from the planning to the execution of this battle, everything was a classic. First of all, your large-scale penetration, outflanking, frontal attack, and flanking  The tactics are quite classic, and to be able to use infantry to this extent, I think you should be proud as the real commander of this battle. "

    "At least until you ended the offensive, your battle was quite good, but I don't know why you stopped your offensive under such a favorable situation. You still deployed on the battlefields of Tongliao and Linxi.  "There are two armored brigades and a large number of cavalry units. These are two extremely mobile units, but unfortunately, you did not use them effectively."

    "It is true that if your troops on the western front continue to move south, they will most likely be separated by the Japanese army because of the long distance between them and the troops in other directions. But if you turn to the southeast, after you have captured Tongliao, the two troops have actually moved closer.  First, at least eliminate Lin Xi.There shouldn't be any problems with the two Japanese divisions facing them.

    "Judging from your strength on the Linxi battlefield, even if the main force turns to the southeast after completing the face-to-face combat, you can still leave enough troops to defend your flanks on the Linxi front line. Judging from the terrain on the map,  Look, the terrain there will also help you defend Jehol and the Japanese in mainland China."

    "However, no matter how detailed a map is, it can only show the situation on the battlefield. As the supreme commander of this army, you should clearly know whether a battle is won or not. A map that shows the situation  It can¡¯t explain anything, there are still many things that cannot be marked on the map.¡±

    "Both we and Major General Stilwell need to know clearly why you terminated the battle under such a favorable overall situation, and this has a profound impact on our view of the combat effectiveness of your army and the intentions of your commander.  The evaluation of will is quite important.¡±

    "And our judgment is directly related to your future allies and future assistance to you, because we cannot give the equipment of allies to an army that deliberately maintains its own strength on the battlefield instead of going all-out into the war.  So I hope you can answer Major General Stilwell¡¯s questions in detail and come up with a reason to convince us to believe you.¡±
