Chapter 580 Counterattack now?
Chongqing, Commander!
Principal Chang was paced back and forth in the combat hall with his hands behind his back.
The eyes of more than a dozen senior generals followed the back and forth of Principal Chang, and senior generals such as Chen Shi, He Yingpei, Xu Yongsheng, Bai Chongbei, and Liu Sheng stared at each other.
Everyone was waiting, waiting for news from Hankou to come.
The situation in Hankou is not good. According to the exact information provided by the Military Control Commission Wuhan Station, at around 10 o'clock in the morning, the Japanese army had already advanced to the line of Tiren Lane, Shajia Lane and Xiongjia Lane!
Principal Chang stopped and looked up at the wall clock on the wall. The hour hand was already pointing at the eleventh hour!
From 10 o'clock in the morning to now, an hour has passed. What will happen to Hankou?
The same question also repeatedly emerged in the minds of more than a dozen senior staff officers and senior generals present.
At this moment, the sound of rapid footsteps sounded again outside the hall. When everyone looked back, they saw Dai Li, deputy director of the Military Affairs Bureau, hurried in.
Principal Chang also turned around and his eyes fell on Dai Li's face.
However, Dai Li's face still looked calm and he could not see any emotions! This is also a necessary quality as an intelligence leader, and he will not show his emotions!
After strode to Principal Chang, Dai Li said respectfully: "Principal, there is news!"
Principal Chang said: "Tell me!"
"Yes." Dai Li responded and said slowly, "Around ten o'clock in the morning, the Japanese army dispatched three infantry corpses and advanced again to Tiren Lane, Shajia Lane and Xiongjia Lane along yesterday's attack route. However, at this moment, a shocking explosion suddenly occurred near Tiren Lane, Shajia Lane and Xiongjia Lane!"
"Hmm?" Principal Chang said in surprise, "A big explosion?"
Senior generals such as Chen Shi, He Yingpei, and senior generals such as Yang Nan also looked at each other.
After hearing this, Liu Sheng and Bai Chong's hearts were slightly moved. Has the situation been repeated again?
Sure enough, Dai Li continued: "According to the on-site reconnaissance of the military-controlled Wuhan Station, after the explosion, all the buildings in Tiren Lane, Shajia Lane and Xiongjia Lane were razed to the ground, and the three Japanese infantry corps that entered it were all blown to ashes!"
"ah?!"
"What?!"
"Three Japanese infantry corps were blown to ashes?"
"God, doesn't this mean that Hankou has been defended again?!"
"It's not just defending it, but also severely damaged the Japanese army. All of them wiped out three infantry regiments!"
Hearing Dai Li's words, more than a dozen senior staff officers in the combat hall were instantly in an uproar.
He Yingpei, Chen Shi, Xu Yongsheng and other senior generals also looked at each other. How could this happen?
Bai Chongbei and Liu Sheng also looked at each other and smiled bitterly. It seemed that they had underestimated Zhong Yi. They originally thought that Zhong Yi should have no tricks this time, but they didn't expect that they would do this again!
A family of burying the three Japanese infantry regiments, with big deals and great deals!
At this time, President Chang also came back from his shock and said happily: "Yunnong, doesn't this mean that Hankou has not been lost yet?"
"Yes, Principal, Hankou has not been lost yet!" Dai Li nodded and said, "Not only has it not been lost, but it has also regained the block that was abandoned in the morning!"
"Okay, great!" Principal Chang waved his fist vigorously.
Chen Shi, He Yingpei and Xu Yongsheng felt even more embarrassed after hearing this.
Especially Chen Shi, he wanted to find a crack in the floor to get in, which was embarrassing!
Chen Shi was even more worried that Liu Sheng would use this matter to ridicule him, but the more he was worried, the more he would be. Chen Shizheng was worried, so Liu Sheng walked over.
"Brother Cixiu." Liu Sheng said with a smile, "What did you say an hour ago?"
"This, that..." Chen Shi's eyes wandered and his words flashed. He was already considering whether to pee first?
Liu Sheng did not intend to let Chen Shi go easily, and then said: "An hour ago, Brother Ci Xiu, in front of the principal and his colleagues, said with a firm word that the Wuhan Garrison District will definitely fall into a big fight this time, and it is still good that the entire Hankou town will fall, and maybe the three brigades guarding Hankou will be eaten, right?"
"Well, I seem to have eaten my stomach and lost my companion." Chen Shi ran away after saying that.
Watching Chen Shi's figure go away, Liu Sheng, Bai Chongbei and others burst into laughter, and Principal Chang also smiled.
Principal Chang is actually very clear that among the generals under him, Chen Shi's ability is actually the most mediocre, but this person is loyal to him, so Principal Chang is still willing to reuse him!
Turning back, Principal Chang sighed again, "Zi Ren, how amazing!"
"Yes." Liu Sheng nodded and said sincerely, "Although I don't know what tactics Zhong Yi has adopted, it is an indisputable fact that he once again wiped out four Japanese infantry regiments!"
Principal Chang nodded and asked again: "Weizhang, how many Japanese troops were wiped out by the Wuhan Garrison District?"
Liu Sheng replied without hesitation: "Including the four corpses that were completely wiped out today, in the past month, the number of Japanese troops destroyed by the Wuhan Garrison District has exceeded 60,000!"
Hearing Liu Sheng's words, all the senior generals and Gao Guan present looked shocked.
Because the 60,000 that Liu Sheng mentioned did not cause 60,000 casualties in the Japanese army, but killed 60,000 people!
"Unclearly, 60,000 Japanese troops have been eliminated!" Principal Chang was immediately excited when he heard this, and said, "So, according to your estimate, how many people are left in the Second Army of Higashinomiya Nianyan now?"
Liu Sheng said: "According to the intelligence provided by the intelligence department, the second army of Higakiori Nianyan's total number of six divisions, of which the 15th and 17th guard divisions are responsible for guarding Anhui and Henan provinces, so there are actually only four divisions coming to the Wuhan battlefield, plus some artillery units!"
After a pause, Liu Sheng continued: "In my opinion, the Second Army's troops to Wuhan should be around 200,000, and now there are about 150,000 left!"
"150,000!" Principal Chang's eyes narrowed and he said in a deep voice, "If you counterattack now, are you sure you can eat it?"
Hearing Principal Chang's words, three black lines rose on Liu Sheng and Bai Chong's grief at the same time. There were still 150,000 troops in the Second Army of Nianyan from Dongjiugu, and they were eager to eat them. Principal, you are too greedy, right?
What's more, the main forces in the Fifth and Ninth War Zones have not yet been completed, and their combat effectiveness is very worrying.
Liu Sheng shook his head and said, "Principal, I'm afraid it's not possible. Although the second army of Higashijiugu Nihiko has already suffered heavy casualties outside Wuhan City, it is far from being hurt. At this time, counterattack, even if the main forces in the fifth and ninth war zones are concentrated, I am afraid that I can't get rid of this hard bone!"
Principal Chang nodded and said, "Well, then wait a little longer."
Chapter completed!
