During the War of Resistance Against Japan: After being scattered at Cangyunling, he brought back a

"What do you mean?"

"Chairman! I understand that the military strength in the entire Fengtian region is very small, only about one division!"

"Moreover, the elite troops have already withdrawn from the Fengtian region!"

"But it's unbelievable that the new Third Army arrived in Fengtian undetected!" Director Dai said in a deep voice.

"I think Xie Jinyuan's telegram was actually quite meaningful!"

After a moment of contemplation, the chairman seemed to have a point to make.

"Chairman! What do you mean?" Director Dai asked, looking puzzled.

Xie Jinyuan had already used open-text telegrams during the New Third Regiment period, and a single telegram forced the entire army of Yoshio Shinotsuka to return to reinforce the area.

But he truly couldn't understand the meaning of this telegram!

"If I'm not mistaken, the new Third Army has a very high chance of gaining a foothold in the three northeastern provinces!" After taking a deep breath, the committee leader said with an unpleasant expression.

"Chairman! This can't be!"

"Didn't you say the Kwantung Army would never tolerate this?" Director Dai swallowed subconsciously.

If the New Third Army gains a foothold in the three northeastern provinces, it will pose the greatest threat to Chongqing once it becomes powerful!

Just like the Northeast Army back then!

"Yu Nong! I remember you said that the northern warring nation seems to be mobilizing troops as well, right?" the committee leader said in a deep voice.

"Correct!"

"Chairman! You mean Xie Jinyuan's actions are related to the fighting nation?" Director Dai suddenly realized and asked.

"Ok!"

"It is highly unlikely that Yoshijiro Umezu can mobilize a large army to enter the pass!"

"Xie Jinyuan's telegram in plain text was clearly a signal to that person in the north!"

"This will further restrict the troop movements of the Kwantung Army!"

"I have to say! Even I have to admire Xie Jinyuan's strategic vision!" The committee member exhaled sharply, his face grave.

It was clearly a dead end, but Xie Jinyuan somehow managed to find a way out!

After all, if we take over the Fengtian area now, even if the Kwantung Army deploys a considerable force, with the Fengtian area as the main battlefield, we can at least hold them off for half a month!

And it only took half a month!

The corpses of the Japanese navy throughout the entire Chinese ocean are probably rotting by now!

"That Chairman..."

"What do we do now?"

"If the new Third Army really gains a foothold, it will be a huge threat to the mountain city!" Director Dai swallowed subconsciously.

The worst-case scenario has now arrived!

"Yoshijiro Umezu will not let the new Third Army continue like this!"

"The threat from the north is only temporary!"

After a moment of contemplation, the committee leader raised his head and quickly spoke.

"Chairman! You mean?"

"The Fighting Nation is too busy to take care of itself! Xie Jinyuan can stall for a while, but not forever!"

"At the latest, the Tank Nation will definitely take action within a week!"

"Has the Tank Nation taken any action?"

"Then, Chairman! Isn't Fengtian now a dead end?" Director Dai asked, his eyes wide.

Once the Tank Nation has tied down the giant bear in the north, the Kwantung Army will be able to mobilize more troops!

At that time, the Fengtian area would become the first battlefield against the southward advance of the Kwantung Army. After all, neither holding out nor retreating was an option, and the Kwantung Army had a well-established war mechanism!

The reason we dare not act rashly now is simply because we are wary of the importance of heading south and the threat from the fighting nation!

"Chairman! Are we really going to ignore this?"

After a pause, Director Dai couldn't help but speak.

For some reason, he felt a little reluctant. After all, in some respects, what Xie Jinyuan did was unprecedented in the history of China, and in terms of strategic vision, no one in China could match him.

"Yu Nong!"

"In fact, when Bai Chuan probed Xie Jinyuan's intentions, his fate was already sealed, wasn't it?" The committee leader took a slow breath, seemingly pointing something out.

After the chairman finished speaking, Director Dai shook his head helplessly.

Even a general who is only good at fighting wouldn't make Chiang Kai-shek so wary; it's truly Xie Jinyuan...

"That's right! Chairman Chiang!"

"If nothing unexpected happens, it will be at the latest three days!"

"Commander Du and Commander Xue will take Taipei and Tianjin!"

"The second line of defense will be established!"

"At the same time, Commander Xue's First Army Group will also quickly move north to build the first line of defense!" Director Dai suddenly remembered and quickly said.

Although opinions on Xie Jinyuan are mixed, his actions have indeed bought a lot of valuable time for the entire nation of China!

Taking Fengtian now will delay the Kwantung Army's southward advance by at least ten days!

Ten days is enough time to thoroughly complete the three fronts that are crucial to the survival of China.

"not enough!"

"Order Bai Congxi to lead his troops north!"

"Fill the gap in the second line of defense!" After a moment of contemplation, the committee leader spoke again.

With the First Army Group moving north, the second line of defense clearly became a place where troops were scarce.

The Fifth Army alone is far from enough!

"Bai Congxi?"

"But Chairman! What if Commander Bai goes north!"

"That would shatter the balance of the entire Central Plains war zone!"

Director Dai looked on incredulously.

"Compared to the whole of China, which do you think is more important?" The chairman interrupted him directly with a wave of his hand.

"Yes, Chairman!"

……

"idiot!"

"What did you say?"

Inside the Kwantung Army's highest command center, Umezu's entire face turned a deep purplish-red.

Immediately after the New Third Army sent this telegram, the Fighting Nation amassed its forces on a massive scale!

Sure enough, he guessed right!

This is clearly hindering the empire's military advance southward!

Now he's the one on the defensive!

"What about the Air Force?"

Yoshijiro Umezu said with a chilling expression.

"General!"

"If we launch a blanket bombardment of Fengtian, what about all those facilities there?!" the deputy said with a grim expression.

Fengtian, as the cornerstone of the Empire in the three northeastern provinces, is not only a buffer zone, but also has a large number of industrial facilities. In particular, the existence of the Fengtian Arsenal completely restricts the Empire's air force!

After all, if they fail, no one can bear the responsibility of destroying the Fengtian Arsenal!

Moreover, after the New Third Army captured Fengtian, it was clear that the entire Fengtian region was the main battlefield. In addition, the New Third Army also had a large number of heavy weapons, so sending a small number of troops would be of no use. Even if everything else was disregarded, the air force could not carry out intensive bombing. In other words, the Empire's actions were now completely restricted!

Just like Taiyuan City before!

"That's right! General!"

"Just now!"

"General Ishii from the Central Plains Theater reports that the main force of the Central Plains Theater has secretly assembled in the mountain city of China!"

"Looks like they're heading north too!" the deputy suddenly remarked.

"Central Plains Theater?"

Yoshijiro Umezu frowned sharply.

China Mountain City dispatched the First Army Group and the Fifth Army to attack the two cities of Beishi and Tianjin!
