"There's only one requirement!"

"When the Kwantung Army enters the pass in large numbers, launch a surprise attack on all of its airfields in the Kwantung region and completely annihilate its air force!"

Xie Jinyuan spoke in a deep voice.

"annihilate its air force?"

After Xie Jinyuan finished speaking, Chu Yunfei froze on the spot.

"Commander-in-Chief!"

"Are you serious?" After a long pause, Chu Yunfei finally asked.

It wasn't that he was being nosy; the order was simply too astonishing.

It should be noted that the Kwantung Army had no fewer than fifty airfields in the three provinces of Kwantung.

And defense goes without saying.

"Chu Yunfei! What do you think is the biggest threat the entire Kwantung Army poses to the New Third Front Army?" Xie Jinyuan interrupted him directly.

"Commander-in-Chief!"

"Although the Kwantung Army had achieved mechanization and was known as the strongest steel force of the Japanese, its weapons and equipment were also the most advanced!"

"However, the mechanization of the Kwantung Army was not pure; it was specific to the Chinese battlefield and was not up to standard for the world battlefield!"

"So if the Eighth Division is fully mechanized, it wouldn't be a problem for just the Eighth Division to hold off an entire Japanese division!"

"On the contrary, I think the Japanese air force is the biggest threat to us!" Chu Yunfei said in a deep voice.

Despite some rumors, the Marine Corps ordered Wang Chengzhu to establish an air defense force.

To be frank, this might be feasible for small-scale battles against the Japanese, but the total number of aircraft in the Kwantung Army's air force was probably no less than five hundred.

Air defense capabilities alone cannot withstand a wave of concentrated bombing by the Japanese.

"Correct!"

"On the surface, the only thing that could threaten the foundation of the New Third Area Army from the Kwantung Army was its air force!"

"While their army is formidable, there's no way they can wipe me out in one bite!"

"Now is an opportunity!"

"The Kwantung Army cannot mobilize its air force in the early stages if it wants to fully enter the pass!"

"In other words, if Yoshijiro Umezu dares to mobilize 700,000 troops to enter the pass, I dare to pull out his sharpest claw!" Xie Jinyuan said expressionlessly.

"Commander-in-Chief!"

"You mean to feign an attack on one front while secretly advancing on another?" Chu Yunfei asked, suddenly realizing what was happening.

According to the order just issued, the Second Army Group will enter the pass first, and the other four army groups will not be far behind.

The Kwantung Army's deployment must have occurred after the Second Army entered the pass. By then, the entire Toyota area would be deserted within the Kwantung Army's sight.

The Eighth Division was hidden in the shadows, and relative to the scale of the entire New Third Front Army of over 100,000 troops, no one would discover it.

Moreover, they also have the help of armored regiments and special forces from five brother families...

"Ha ha!"

“What you said is indeed correct!” Xie Jinyuan then said with a smile.

Within the entire New Third Army, there were quite a few educated people, and Chu Yunfei was one of them.

"However! Commander-in-Chief!"

"The Kwantung Army has no fewer than 50 airfields in the three provinces of Kwantung! This..." After a moment of contemplation, Chu Yunfei still asked.

The strategy is certainly feasible enough, but it's too scattered. Trying to pinpoint the locations of these airports...

"Don't worry about that!"

"I've already made all the arrangements!"

Xie Jinyuan waved his hand to interrupt.

"Yes! Commander-in-Chief!"

"One last question!"

"What happened to those fighter jets after their air force was destroyed?" Chu Yunfei asked, frowning.

War is a process of ebb and flow, and those are all warplanes. It would be a huge loss to destroy them on the spot!

After all, there wasn't a single fighter jet in the entire World War II zone!

"Don't worry about that!"

"The new Third Front Army has quite a few experienced pilots!"

Xie Jinyuan spoke with a pointed tone.

"pilot?"

"Commander-in-Chief! We already have some free time..." Chu Yunfei subconsciously swallowed.

If the new Third Front Army already had an air force, that would be too outrageous.

Even if it wasn't, it means the Commander-in-Chief had made this plan a long time ago, and even the pilots were ready.

"okay!"

"Will the Eighth Division succeed this time?!"

"This means whether the entire New Third Front Army will get the lion's share or just scraps in the upcoming battles!"

"At the same time, it also means whether you, Chu Yunfei, are capable of leading the Sixth Army Group!" Xie Jinyuan suddenly said with a solemn expression.

"Yes!"

"Commander-in-Chief!"

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Chu Yunfei suddenly straightened his back and said.

……

Eighth Division Headquarters.

At this moment, Fang Ligong was pacing back and forth inside the division headquarters, clearly troubled by something.

"Commander! Has something happened inside the Great Wall?"

Upon hearing the noise, Fang Ligong rushed forward immediately.

In recent days, rumors about an incident within the Great Wall have been circulating widely, and at this critical juncture, all division-level commanders have been assembled by the Marine Corps, which clearly indicates that the matter is not so simple.

"Ok!"

"The Marine Corps has just issued the operational order!"

"The Second Army will enter the pass in one hour to reinforce the Second War Zone!"

Chu Yunfei stepped forward and took off his military overcoat.

"It really is true!"

"But Commander! Is it only the Second Army Group that has entered the pass?" Fang Ligong immediately frowned and asked.

"The orders we've received for now are as follows!"

"However, the other four army groups are also on standby, and their entry into the pass is probably not far off!" Chu Yunfei shook his head and said.

"What about us?"

"Commander! When are we going to enter the pass?" Fang Ligong couldn't help but ask.

The current Eighth Division can be said to be the most unique unit in the entire New Third Front Army. It has not been incorporated into any group army, but is instead an independent division!

Similar to the organization of the independent artillery brigade under Wang Chengzhu.

"No entry order has been received!"

Chu Yunfei paused for a moment before speaking.

"No entry order received?"

"Master's seat!"

"I knew it!"

"Xie Jinyuan is definitely wary of us! Li Yunlong, and that Ding Wei, aren't they all peasants?"

"Now they've all become army group commanders!"

"Our 358th Regiment was euphemistically called the Eighth Division, but we received neither equipment nor additional personnel!"

"We weren't even allowed to enter the country!"

"Commander! Xie Jinyuan is definitely afraid that we will have ulterior motives after entering the pass..." Fang Ligong could no longer suppress his anger and spoke out.
