Chapter 492: Surprise for the Bosses
After solving the problem of forming a maritime force, Ye Feng looked at Song Yu, who was flexible in fighting and had great command, and asked:
"Captain Song, you are now the commander of the first air force company. What are your recent development plans for the air force?"
Song Yu, "..."
Three days ago, Ye Feng suddenly signed a letter of appointment, appointing Song Yu as the company commander of the 1st Air Force Company.
The moment he received the order, Song Yu was stunned.
What the hell?
Air Force Company Commander?
Our anti-Japanese armed forces in Shanghai can’t even find a single flying fighter plane!
and then?
Song Yu was forced to select a company of soldiers and form an air force department. What to do without planes? Since it was impossible to carry out actual combat operations, they read books about flying. Finally, Song Yu ordered people to drag back several piles of crashed plane wreckage from outside Shanghai for the soldiers to study.
"Commander, you appointed me as an air force company commander, but you should at least give me a few planes!"
Song Yu was helpless. "All the soldiers in my company want to run away now. There is nothing we can do. It's so embarrassing. We are the Air Force, but there is not a single plane in the training ground. There are only plane wreckage all over the ground."
Ye Feng said, "Stop talking nonsense. If there is no plane, you won't go and rob it, right? Do you need me to teach you this?"
Song Yu once again, "..."
Hahaha!
Everyone in the conference room couldn't help but burst into laughter. The scene was filled with laughter and everyone was having a great time.
Then Ye Feng also said firmly, "Comrade Song Yu, I don't care what method you use. In one month, I must see an air force with a certain combat effectiveness. As for the planes, I don't care whether you buy them, cheat them, or rob them. In short, I just want to see the final result. If you fail to complete the mission, you will be a soldier."
Ye Feng: This is not asking too much. In this era, as long as you are brave, there is nothing you can't accomplish.
The planes in the sky at that time were all the oldest models and were not expensive.
As long as you use your brain and plan ahead, you can buy a batch of aircraft through a middleman.
Isn't this how the space of the southwestern mountain city developed?
It stands to reason.
At this time in Shanghai, there is absolutely no need to waste money to build an air force.
The reason why Ye Feng insisted was very simple. He was fed up with being bombed by Japanese air raids.
Why are you, Japanese devils the only ones who carry out indiscriminate bombings on our Chinese army and civilians?
If the anti-Japanese armed forces in Shanghai had air power, they would be able to carry out large-scale firepower radiation.
This is an aerial fire deterrent.
I can do without it, but I absolutely cannot live without it.
"Commander, where's the money? If I want to purchase various fighter jets, you have to give me some start-up capital, right?" Song Yu complained.
"Looking for Comrade Liu Wei."
Ye Feng went straight to the next topic, this time discussing issues concerning the army, and began to let everyone speak freely.
The Army is also the most important anti-Japanese force.
"Let me make one point."
Ling Wei took out a document and said, "Some time ago, the Japanese Supreme Command issued an order to recruit new soldiers nationwide to expand the army. The plan is to recruit 50 people in the first batch, 30 in the second batch, and 20 in the third batch. The total plan is to expand by another 100 million people."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone who was about to express their opinions fell silent immediately, as they were all shocked by this intelligence information.
Less than a million invaders.
The Japanese have already conquered more than half of China with their powerful military strength, and are now expanding their troops by 100 million. They are simply insane!
One million new soldiers can quickly form 100 divisions.
The enemy's strength was so powerful that everyone present was frightened.
Ye Feng said, "Japan's expansion of its troops has both advantages and disadvantages for us. The disadvantage is that we have to face a larger enemy, but the advantage is that the enemy's combat effectiveness has decreased. A group of recruits with low physical fitness will definitely not be able to compare with their elite Kwantung Army, and their combat effectiveness is limited."
"The Japanese are still forcibly conscripting soldiers. Many Japanese people must have anti-war sentiments. How can we win the war if the troops are demoralized?"
Brigade Commander Zhou Dashan was the first to speak, "The Japanese are expanding their forces, and we cannot fall behind. Our independent reorganized division's 2 personnel are not enough to defend the Shanghai front. In my opinion, it would be best to increase the force to more than 5, to the strength of an army."
The regiment commander Xiao Jiguang also said, "Commander, as far as I understand, Shanghai is a prosperous city. Once it is affected by the war, the impact on the economy and people's livelihood will be too serious. It is best to move the battlefield out of Shanghai and fight in remote areas of the original city. Let Shanghai become our rear base and base camp, and provide a steady supply of supplies."
Suddenly, other people started talking about it.
"Given our current situation, if the base headquarters allows, it would be best if we could expand to 10 people. With the strength of five divisions, we can definitely defend Shanghai and continue to expand our victory."
"Shanghai is currently in our hands. With this place as the center, it is time to fight outside and recover the lost territory."
"Yes, our goal should be to start from Shanghai and head northwest to Jiangsu and west to Anhui to recover the cities, counties, towns, townships, and villages within a thousand miles. This will expand our strategic depth and form a multi-level and multi-tiered defense system."
"Eighty percent of Japan's military strength is now deployed against the northwest base and the southwestern mountain city. This is a good opportunity for us to send troops."
"The 2 people we just recruited are all new soldiers. They have only been trained for a week. Can they fight?"
"It is difficult for soldiers to develop combat effectiveness if they do not go to the battlefield and experience the baptism of war. This is an opportunity for us to train our troops."
"If we attack from two fronts, we won't have enough troops. But if we recruit soldiers on a large scale to expand our anti-Japanese armed forces, do we have enough funds to support military supplies, weapons and equipment, and the monthly salaries of all personnel?"
"We can still maintain a 5-man army and equip it with various weapons. After all, in the Battle of Shanghai, we have successively annihilated Japanese divisions and seized countless cannons and guns. It is the ammunition and shells that need some time to be replenished."
"As long as we continue to recover the land and fight the Japanese, we can also get supplies from the Japanese warehouses and strongholds."
"I think it's feasible. The division commander's plan for an urban base is time to start taking action."
“The anti-Japanese flag started from Shanghai and eventually spread across every inch of Chinese land.”
……
Two hours later.
After everyone's discussion and resolution, Ye Feng decided to expand Shanghai's independent reorganized division to 5 troops.
Among them, there are two main combat forces, each with 2 people.
The remaining 1 people were in combat and reserve positions, and were mainly responsible for the defense of Shanghai.
The battle plan was simple.
three days later.
Ye Feng led 10,000 people to march northwest to Jiangsu to recover the territory and fight the Japanese.
Brigade Commander Zhou Qingshan led 10,000 men to march westward toward Anhui, striving to recover thousands of miles of land.
According to the order, Ye Feng prepared to report to the Yan'an headquarters.
In Ye Feng's opinion, this two-pronged operation was a big surprise given to the bosses in Yan'an in advance.
