Chapter 912: The whole army attacks and advances rapidly
The atmosphere in the meeting room was tense and solemn, and every general listened attentively to every word of General Stein.
Stein stood at one end of the conference table, and in a steady and powerful voice, he explained the information he had just obtained from Koga Ryukata one by one.
"According to reliable intelligence, the enemy's deployment in the Yamaguchi area is seriously empty. The Yamaguchi Corps led by Abe Hideki is besieged in the Daifeng Mountains and will be unable to escape in a short time." Stein said loudly, "This is the perfect time for us to launch an offensive and expand our victory."
He paused, glanced at the generals present, and continued, "I order that our five ace troops will move quickly from now on, cross the entire Yamaguchi area with a thunderous force, and head straight for the two key areas of Shimane and Hiroshima in the east. Once these two areas fall into our hands, we will form a pincer attack with General Liu Chengxu's army and completely cut off the retreat of the Fuso army."
At this time, Stein turned to Commander Liefel who was standing beside him.
"Captain Li Feier, I order you to lead the Revitalization Division immediately and march at full speed to Yamaguchi City. After arriving, you will merge with the Skull Division that has been deployed there to form a powerful combat force. Your first task is to use Takeseki County in the Hiroshima area as a breakthrough point, and use the terrain and manpower advantages to steadily advance eastward."
Division Commander Liefel stood up, saluted Stein with a standard military salute, and answered in a loud voice: "Yes, General! I promise to complete the mission and live up to your trust!"
Stein nodded to show his satisfaction, and then added: "In order to speed up your advancement, I will personally dispatch two rocket divisions to provide you with long-range fire support. They will accurately strike the enemy's important facilities and defense lines to clear obstacles for your ground forces."
"In addition," Stein's tone became more serious, "I want to emphasize that this operation must be swift and efficient. We must completely change the battlefield situation before the enemy can react. All units must work closely together and support each other to ensure efficiency."
Stein's eyes then turned to Schmand, the commander of the Wiking Division sitting on the other side. At this time, the Wiking Division had been renamed the Nordland Division to highlight its outstanding contributions on the northern battlefield.
Stein spoke slowly: "Captain Schmand, the Northern Division and the Imperial Division, you will be the two sharpest swords in my hand, pointing directly at the Shimane region."
Upon hearing this, Commander Schmand was shocked, and immediately straightened his back, looking at Stein with sharp eyes, waiting for the next instructions.
"Your mission is arduous and glorious," Stein continued, "Not only do you have to encircle Zheng Zeyu's troops that landed at Izumo Port, but you also have to completely capture the entire Shimane area within half a month. This is not only a test of your combat effectiveness, but also a reflection of the determination and will of the Chinese army."
Division Commander Schmand replied without hesitation: "General, please rest assured! The Northern Division and the Imperial Division will live up to everyone's expectations and conquer Shimane with the fastest speed and the strongest force, adding more glory to China's victory!"
Stein nodded with satisfaction, his tone revealing an unquestionable determination: "I know you can do it. But I want to emphasize that for greater efficiency and a more thorough victory, I allow you to use strategic weapons such as V2 rockets and mass-destructive bombs in this operation. Remember, our goal is to quickly and thoroughly destroy the enemy's will to resist and turn Shimagen into a scorched earth."
Commander Schmand nodded solemnly again, indicating that he had fully understood Stein's intentions and requirements.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the winter sun barely penetrated the thick clouds and sprinkled on the snow-covered land in the Yamaguchi area.
Following the commander's order, the Revitalization Division started like an awakened lion, rushing towards Yamaguchi City. Their goal was to join the Totenkopf Division that had been waiting there, jointly open the gateway to the Hiroshima area, and pave the way for the final victory.
On the road, a steel torrent consisting of rows of tanks and armored vehicles meandered forward in the snow. They crushed the snow, leaving deep ruts, like a giant dragon cruising on the snowfield.
These well-equipped and well-trained ace troops reveal their combat effectiveness in every detail. The soldiers sit in the vehicles with resolute eyes and weapons in their hands, ready to deal with any enemy they may encounter.
At the same time, the Imperial Division and the Northern Division, two equally powerful forces, were also galloping on another battlefield. They were rushing non-stop towards the marginal city of Heye in the Shimane region, which would be the key point for them to meet up with Zheng Zeyu's army that landed at Izumo Port.
The two armies were like two sharp knives, pointing directly at the heart of the enemy.
In the freezing weather, the soldiers' faces were covered with a thin layer of frost, but their fighting spirit was as hot as flames.
Tactical communication and command issuance between officers at all levels are extremely smooth, and every instruction can be transmitted to every combat unit quickly and accurately.
This highly efficient system is the unique advantage of the ace troops, which allows every soldier to make the most correct response in the shortest time.
As the troops continued to advance, the logistics department also began to work intensively and orderly. They organized a huge supply line to continuously transport various resources to the front line. From ammunition, fuel to food and medicine, everything is indispensable.
In the command room far away from the front line, the lights were soft and bright. Su Zhengyang was sitting in front of a large desk, his eyes fixed on the battle report in his hand.
As he read word by word, a satisfied smile gradually bloomed on the corners of his mouth.
"General Stein did not disappoint me." Su Zhengyang whispered to himself, his eyes flashing with admiration and trust for this capable general.
At this time, General Gudean, who was standing by, saw this and smiled knowingly.
He stood up, walked to Su Zhengyang, and said with a smile: "The old guy Stein has always been known for his decisive decision-making and amazing courage. On the battlefield, his ability to seize opportunities is better than anyone else. You see, this time Abe Hideki's clever guerrilla tactics not only failed to cause much trouble to the expeditionary force, but instead created a great opportunity for us, sending his Yamaguchi Corps to hell."
Gudean's words were full of admiration for Stein and ridicule for Abe Hideki's tactical mistakes.
Every decision on the battlefield is crucial, and Stein is the kind of outstanding general who can make correct judgments and execute decisively at critical moments.
Upon hearing this, Su Zhengyang nodded in agreement.
"Pass the order down," Su Zhengyang said to Gu De'an, "Tell the logistics department to increase supply efforts to ensure that the needs of the front-line troops are met. At the same time, notify the commanders of other war zones and ask them to be prepared to support General Stein's actions at any time."
