"For the 67th Army, currently the 9th Regiment of the Third Division, you have to get used to it."

"yes."

Zhang Yong answered Huang Wei's Q&A.

The four armies that were first inspected by him, 67, 68, 69, 100 armies, were all different from those of other national armies.

Other national troops were organized by divisions, brigades, and regiments. Zhang Yong abolished the middle brigade level. The division directly governed the regiments. Then the three-three system was implemented.

At present, the 67th Army is full of 35,000 people. Italian artillery is also enough.

But there is no large caliber heavy artillery of more than 105 mm.

It’s not that Zhang Yong doesn’t want to be equipped, it’s that he’s too bulky and cannot adapt to the maneuvering needs of the 67th Army.

Without enough cars, equipping with a 105mm howitzer is simply a disaster and is also easy to become a target of Japanese aircraft.

"Walk!"

"yes."

Afterwards, he went to the front line with Huang Wei to inspect the fortifications.

At present, Hankou and Yueyang are facing each other. We are all facing each other. We are all high walls and are ready to fight.

No matter who it is, you have to pay a heavy price to take the initiative to attack.

Therefore, Okamura Yasuji was honest and did not dare to act rashly, because as long as he moved, casualties would follow one after another.

In the face of dense and layered fortifications, no matter who it is, it has to pay a very heavy price. Tens of thousands of casualties can be easily achieved.

so……

The task Zhang Yong gave to Huang Wei was to defend Yueyang. We must not attack rashly.

At the same time, it was repeatedly emphasized that the 67th Army was stationed in Yueyang.

I almost got the name of the bald man. I was afraid that the bald man would cross the war zone and pass by him, Zhang Yong, and give orders to Huang Wei. This resulted in major casualties in the army.

"Specialist, don't worry, I, Huang Wei, swear to live and die with Yueyang."

"well."

Zhang Yong nodded.

I'm not worried about you.

I'm worried about the bald man.

If the bald head passes directly over me and gives you an order, what will you make a decision?

But it's okay.

At most, Yueyang was lost.

Then he led the troops to take them back in person.

Take a night off.

The next day, I continued to board the boat and went to Jingzhou.

The 69th Army was stationed in Jingzhou. The previous commander was Li Tianxia and now Long Muhan.

Long Muhan has not taken office yet, but Li Tianxia has already left.

Jingzhou is very quiet.

The Japanese invaders were fifty kilometers away and the two sides had no contact.

Intelligence shows that the Japanese invaders did not have much force. It is basically certain that they are of alertness.

As long as Yueyang is not lost, it is unlikely that the Japanese invaders will attack Jingzhou from land. Because the flanks are seriously threatened, it is very dangerous.

There is nothing to say. It’s just a simple walk through the motions and inspections.

Continue to take the boat.

Go upstream and arrive in Yichang.

The 68th Army is stationed here. It is used as a reserve force.

Because there was no war for the time being, the bald man began to plan to "reduce the vassal states" again, starting with the Yunnan Army.

The first step to reduce the vassal states was to transfer the 68th Army to defend Kunming.

“Specialist.”

"Hello everyone."

Li Tianxia brought senior officers to greet Zhang Yong.

Everyone knows the order to adjust Kunming. Many people have doubts in their hearts.

It ran so far in one go!

Running from the Central Plains to the southwest all at once, it is more than a thousand kilometers apart!

Not to mention the rest, it takes three months to march alone. Moreover, most sections of the road require walking.

The farthest ship can only reach Yibin, and then you need to walk.

They are all steep mountains.

All winding mountain roads.

Many people can't figure out why they have to run so far.

The Yunnan Army was transferred out and the 68th Army was completely a mess! Everyone was exhausted on the road.

"This is the order of the Commissioner. It is the arrangement of the commander."

Zhang Yong didn't explain either.

To explain, he also thinks it's a mess.

Tens of thousands of people have been wasted on the road. There are also a large number of non-combat reductions.

It should be noted that the earliest foundation of the 68th Army was the Northeast Army. Many of the combat backbones were northerners. They were definitely not very adaptable to the climate of Yunnan Province.

The Yunnan Army defended Yunnan Province is actually the best.

Even if the Japanese invaders attacked, the Yunnan Army itself could actually defend it.

As long as all the Yunnan army were transferred back to Yunnan Province, we would ensure that the Japanese invaders could not invade.

The people of Yunnan defend the Yunnan soil and their combat effectiveness will definitely be out of reach!

but……

well……

"If you really don't want to go, you can apply to me. I can arrange for you to go to other troops and continue to fight against the Japanese invaders."

Zhang Yong didn't have any mobilization and motivation.

Anyway, voluntary.

Not compulsory.

It is not a coward who stays.

When going to other troops, we have to fight frequently with the Japanese invaders.

After going to Yunnan Province, there is no war for the time being. I can rest for more than two years.

How to make a decision, think about it yourself.

The vacant part will be added after arriving in Kunming.

No, to be precise, it is to supplement the locals after arriving in western Yunnan.

Locals are more adaptable to the local environment.

Even if you go abroad, it will be fine.

Suddenly I realized that it was actually quite good to have two years in advance.

There is just enough time to adapt to the local climate.

The first batch of expeditionary forces were temporarily transferred, so they were very uncomfortable with the climate there, and the non-combat officers were reduced by more than half.

Especially after the battle fails, those who are not familiar with the place can only wait for death.

Many veterans who have fought for a hundred times did not die under the Japanese spear, but died in the wild man mountain filled with miasma. It is indeed an indescribable sadness.

"Li Tianxia!"

"arrive!"

"Try to assemble officers at or above the battalion level, I want to talk about it."

"yes."

Li Tianxia immediately ordered.
