Chapter 109 Division Commander Ushishima Sadao and the Meeting of the First Theater
Japanese No.18 Division Headquarters,

"Your Excellency, Division Commander! Within a month, we have been continuously dispatching small groups of troops to conduct tentative attacks against the Central China Army in Zhongtiao Mountain! We have basically understood the Central China Army in Zhongtiao Mountain. The details of the troops and weapons and equipment!"

"So our next attack can be more vigorous, Your Excellency, Division Commander!"

Staff officer Endo Hisuru was reporting to the division commander Ushijima Sadao who was studying the high-definition map of Mount Nakajo attentively.

"Well! Then listen to your staff and increase your efforts from tomorrow to attack the Chinese Army in Zhongtiao Mountain!"

"However, a general offensive is not needed for the time being. It's not that I don't want to, but the headquarters has not approved it!"

"They seem to be planning some big battle deployment. They want me to wait until the deployment is completed before they can unite with the rest of the divisions to encircle and suppress the Chinese Army on Zhongtiao Mountain. I'm afraid it will be time to eradicate it!"

"But it is a good thing to be able to uproot the Chinese army in Zhongtiao Mountain, otherwise we will not be able to attack the Chinese territory on the other side of the Yangtze River!"

After listening to the report from Chief of Staff Endo Kuru, Division Chief Ushishima Sadao nodded in agreement.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, is right, and I think so too!"

"As long as we capture Zhongtiao Mountain, the Chinese territory across the Yangtze River will belong to our imperial army!"

"So the command's plan is still very big!"

"Then I will gather all the combat staff first to develop the combat deployment for the intensified attack we will take on!"

After the division commander Ushijima Sadao finished speaking,
Staff officer Endo Jiuru also immediately expressed his opinion.

"Well! Go! I also want to study the latest map of Zhongtiao Mountain drawn by our reconnaissance force in the past month. I want to be familiar with all the environments of Zhongtiao Mountain before the war. Okay. Let our troops carry out large-scale encirclement and suppression operations smoothly!"

"Once the war begins, all the Chinese troops entrenched in Zhongtiao Mountain must be wiped out!"

"We are not allowed to delay the battle here any longer!"

Division commander Ushijima Sadao nodded in agreement.

"Hay!"

Staff officer Endo Jiuru also nodded in response.

Then he turned and left.

The first theater of war under the jurisdiction of Commander Wei Lihuang.

headquarters,
The commander-in-chief of the First War Zone, Wei Lihuang, has jurisdiction over one division each in Anhui and Henan.

Sun Lianzhong of the 2nd Army, Pang Bingxun of the 40th Army (directly under the theater), Sun Tongxuan of the 3rd Army
76th Army Li Tiejun (directly under the jurisdiction of the theater)
Troop strength: 12 Infantry Division, 1 Infantry Brigade, 1 Cavalry Division, 1 Cavalry Brigade, and other division commanders of special forces who were outside all arrived at the combat conference room of the headquarters and held an emergency combat meeting.

The brigade commander of the 1st Cavalry Brigade was also transferred back to attend the meeting, but he had the lowest position among all the officers present.

Originally, this time the combat meeting was

It only needs the commanders of a few group armies to arrive at the conference room to attend the meeting.

However, after more than a month, after the continuous small-scale attacks of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army,
The commander of the guard also wanted to know the true casualties of the troops below.

That's why there was an emergency combat meeting like today, and the lower-level officers were also called over for a meeting.

"What do you think of the sneak attack operation carried out by the Japanese 18th Division over the past month?"

"Especially, I want to know the actual casualties and morale of our army!"

"Because I haven't heard many good news from you for more than a month!"

"Although the Japanese 18th Division's sneak attack operation was only carried out on a small scale, it did not last for more than a month, and there is no good news yet?"

"Faced with such a result, I am not satisfied at all, and the General Marshal is equally dissatisfied!"

"So in today's meeting, I hope everyone will come up with a good combat plan. It is best to inflict heavy damage on the Japanese 18th Division that attacked this time, or even kill them all in one go!"

"Before other Japanese divisions come to help, deal with the Japanese division that is alone this time as soon as possible!"

"Which of you will come out first and give your suggestions?"

"I hope everyone can put their heads together and create a beautiful siege and annihilation battle!"

Looking at all the senior officers present, Commander Wei also had sharp eyes. He glanced at everyone present, and then spoke out his thoughts with great enthusiasm.

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other.
In particular, the commanders of the group armies were trying to figure out the thoughts of the commander-in-chief and the thoughts of the general marshal.

But when they saw Commander Wei's determined fighting eyes,
They also had an idea.

I am afraid that this time we will definitely have a head-to-head battle with the Japanese 18th Division.
