Jia Chen shifted his gaze away from the recruitment area and went up the city wall to take a look.
After seeing that Li Guohua's troops were being arranged by Xu Hu to build fortifications outside the city, Jia Chen turned around and went down the city wall to return to the command post.
Not long after they arrived at the command post, they heard hurried footsteps coming from outside.
"Report! General!"
Then, Xu Long walked in quickly from outside the door.
"Yes, what is it?"
Jia Chen asked.
"General, yesterday I arranged for the Air Force Brigade to take turns to investigate the vicinity of Fengtian City. Just now, our fighter planes discovered that the Japanese army was gathering at Lianshan Pass. Because the other party is equipped with a large number of anti-aircraft artillery, we were unable to observe at a close distance.”
Xu Long said coldly.
"Lianshan Pass?"
Jia Chen frowned.
Then, he quickly walked to the map and glanced at it. He saw the location of Lianshan Pass!
Lianshan Pass was in the southeast of Fengtian City, more than 100 kilometers away from Fengtian City. Behind Lianshan Pass was Feng City, and behind Feng City was the intersection line between the Tang Dynasty, the Northern Dynasty, and the Japanese army!
"Three regiments…"
Looking at the location of Lianshan Pass on the map, Jia Chen muttered.
The organization of the Japanese army was different from that of the Japanese army. The Japanese army was named according to company, battalion, regiment, etc. On the other hand, the Japanese army had brigades, squadrons, and regiments...
The Japanese army had a full regiment of 3800 people, and three regiments were more than 11,000 people!
The total number of the Kwantung Army in the three eastern provinces added up to more than 10,000!
They gathered all the Guandong Army to attack Fengtian City?
Thinking of this…Jia Chen shook his head.
This idea was simply impossible, unless those Japanese were all idiots…
There was only one possibility! That meant that the Japanese army had sent troops over!
Thinking of this!
"Continue to send reconnaissance planes to investigate the entire Liao Province!" Jia Chen said to Xu Long. The Japanese army definitely has more than this!"
"Yes, sir!"
Xu Long nodded.
"Right, call Xu Hu, Xu Feng, and Xu Biao over!”
Jia Chen thought of something and said to Xu Long.
"Yes, sir!"
Xu Long nodded and turned to leave.
"Wait a minute…Call Li Guohua along too…"
"Yes, sir!"
..........
Ten minutes later…
In the combat conference room of the command center…
Jia Chen sat in the main seat at the front, while Xu Long and the others sat on both sides.
"I just received news that the Japanese army has mobilized soldiers from their homeland. Now, at least three regiments have gathered at Lianshan Pass. In addition, I think they must have mobilized heavy artillery, planes, and tanks…As for why so many troops were mobilized, I don't need to say anything more…What are your thoughts now?"
Jia Chen looked at everyone and asked.
"Report!"
Li Guohua stood up first.
Jia Chen nodded, indicating that Li Guohua could speak.
"Sir…Now the Japanese army..."
"Don't call me sir. Just call me general like them…"
"Yes, sir! General! I think the Japanese are gathering at Lianshan Pass now, which is a good time for us to attack. So I suggest that our planes directly carry out air strikes to interfere, and at the same time, the tanks bombard Lianshan Pass!”
Li Guohua said in a high tone.
He was only a deputy battalion commander before, but now they were talking about planes and tanks. This made him feel different.
"I don't agree with this battle plan!”
Xu Hu said.
"Hmm, what's your plan?"
Jia Chen nodded and asked Xu Hu.
"Lianshan Pass is only 100 kilometers away from us. The Japanese army knows that we have tanks and planes. They can't gather soldiers at such a close distance from us, so I think they must have a place to ambush us, or they must have a place to be fearless.”
Xu Hu analyzed calmly.
Hearing Xu Hu's analysis, Li Guohua, who was standing opposite him, had an awkward expression on his face. From the comparison of the two's analysis, he really did not consider whether the Japanese army had an ambush.
"Alright... Then hurry up and build the fortifications…These few days, the tanks and infantry had been working together. As for the fighter planes... Xu Long, you have to arrange for people to scout the surroundings 24 hours a day. As long as there is an opportunity for an air strike, immediately carry out an air strike!”
"Yes, sir!"
Xu Long replied.
After the meeting ended, everyone left…
When everyone reached the door, Jia Chen thought of something and said,"Xu Feng, stay behind…"
"Yes, sir!"
Xu Feng stopped.
Soon, everyone left, leaving only Xu Feng and Jia Chen in the meeting room.
"How's the recruitment going?"
Looking at Xu Feng's beautiful appearance, Jia Chen asked.
"We started recruiting at five o'clock in the morning this morning, and so far, we've recruited 1287 people. General, these people don't even have military uniforms yet…In addition, they have to go through at least a month of training before they can enter the battlefield…"
Xu Feng reported.
"Yes, there's no hurry about the military uniform for the time being. The recruitment will continue for now. In addition, the arsenal in Fengtian City also needs a large number of workers. There are many workers in the city who used to be in the arsenal. Inform them later that the arsenal will continue to be put into use immediately…"
"Yes, General…"
Xu Feng nodded.
"Also, I see that you're also good at publicity. Our army's image also needs to be publicized…You can do as you see fit…"
"Yes, sir!"
"Okay, then you can go and do your work now."
"Yes, sir!"
Xu Feng nodded and left.
After Xu Feng left, Jia Chen walked to the military topographic map on the table. He looked at the map under him and frowned.
