During this period, Yang Yuanzhao has come to the General Staff a little more times. He can find the position of the General Staff with almost closed his eyes. When he came to the combat room of the General Staff Headquarters, Feng Yuxiang, Jiang Baili and other senior military officials had already arrived. Among them, Yan Xishan, who had been asking for battle, was also among them. He had just finished the training and returned. Even after the Beiyang officers' regiment left, Yan Xishan took advantage of the opportunity outside to conduct a 400-kilometer training, mainly to detect the ability of long-distance marching and long-distance raids.

Yan Xishan was also a well-informed person. When he heard that the south had changed, the revolutionary party actually wanted to peek at the railway node cities in the northwest. He didn't care about the fatigue of long-term training and rushed to the General Staff. When Yang Yuanzhao came in, he was arguing with Jiang Baili and Zhang Xiaohuai.

Yan Xishan had a very big Shanxi accent, and almost his unique voice filled the whole room. The purpose of the dispute was very simple, just to ask for battle. According to his words, Cai E's first army could not compare with him. Since the first army was separated from Shandong, he had to participate in the Shandong battle and the Jiangnan battle, he had to take action. Otherwise, what would the Third Army do for so long to train troops? It was useless to waste so much investment.

Yan Xishan's words made Jiang Baili and Zhang Xiaohuai laugh, and even Yang Yuanzhao and Feng Yuxiang, who had almost entered the streets and heard Yan Xishan's complaints, laughed. In the war in the south, the General Staff made many plans. One of the plans was the revolutionary party, or was guided by the northwest, allowing the northwest to seize the opportunity and start the war. If you say it hard, it was exactly the same as the current situation, that is, the revolutionary party took the lead in taking action, and the target was still a node city. The northwest would rely on the node city to drag the opponent's main force, and use the method of shipping to mobilize some of the main forces to attack Huanglong. With the cooperation of the special forces, the beheading operation. Winning in one fell swoop is the easiest and the shortest battle time among all plans.

Among the Northwest's plan, only the First Army and the Third Army can perform this task. Even if the Second Army was established earlier than the Third Army, it was slightly weaker in combat power. It is not included in it. You must know that even if the Northwest made countless preparations for the plan, it is undeniable that at most one army or one can mobilize troops from around the south. This army must be fast, if it is not careful, it may be besieged by 200 revolutionary divisions and must have tough battles. Or, at an absolute disadvantage in the military strength and in a state of isolation and no support, resist the siege of superior forces until the reinforcements arrive.

In this case, the level of combat effectiveness is tested. Among the many armies in the northwest, the First Army and the Third Army have the strongest combat effectiveness. Now, the First Army is in Shandong and is about to catch up with the Japanese army. The Third Army is an inevitable choice.

Unfortunately, Yan Xishan didn't know, otherwise he wouldn't have asked for battle like this now. Looking at his occasionally looking at the commander of the Second Army, Yang Yuanzhao knew that Yan Xishan had misunderstood and laughed in his heart, which made Yan Xishan a little at a loss. After turning to him, he asked Shi Lei, who was standing behind him, and said, "Have you determined the goal of the revolutionary party?"

Shi Lei nodded and said, "The 24 goals have been confirmed, involving 150 divisions of the Revolutionary Party. Almost the entire revolutionary army has been dispatched, and the work has been made quite a lot."

The Revolutionary Party has about 200 divisions and used 150 divisions. On average, it will use about 6 divisions to buy one target. The remaining ones will basically not be used. After all, the huge chassis in the entire middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River must be defended, and most of the attack directions have been determined.

Most of these nodes are the most prosperous parts of the railway and the one who pays the most taxes. The revolutionary party's choice is also clever. It seems that the revolutionary party has a big appetite? All the officers present had a calm expression on their faces. The 24 nodes are prosperous and the largest node cities. Relatively speaking, there are quite a lot of defenders stationed, and the most are stationed. Although they are only reserve divisions on the second line, this has also undergone strict semi-militarized training and various professional and technical talents. As long as a certain technical army is supplemented, such as some machine gunners, gunners and commanders, they can immediately become almost equivalent to the combat effectiveness of the B-level division. If they are familiar with the local environment and exercise plans, they can play a huge role in this city more perfectly.

Every node is a military fortress. No one of Yuan Shikai and Wu Peifu and others said that this is wrong. The wealth in the northwest is far from what the Beiyang and the Revolutionary Party can predict. They invested heavily in every node. Because they are rich and powerful, when building node cities, they never consider functionality but defensiveness. When using it, they first excavated underground fortifications of almost ground buildings. The winding underground fortifications are almost all-round, and the ground and underground are far from being as simple as it seems on the surface.

In addition to the reinforced concrete itself, in the city, there are generally about 15,000 armed personnel with certain military training in the city. Like regular troops, they can play a huge role and cooperate with the city's garrison and casual troops. In a short period of time, there is no way to get a node unless it is a sneak attack.

Before the Revolutionary Party moved, the news had already reached the northwest, and then it notified the various node cities. Without the Revolutionary Party's feelings, the node cities were already preparing, with a large amount of cash, important equipment, and personnel being evacuated and transferred. On the surface, there was no change in these nodes, which is the foundation of the Northwest.

Arranged one by one. At the beginning, technical troops and some supplements were drawn from the reserves or second-tier troops to supplement the defense of 24 node cities. It is definitely impossible to draw the third army in the middle. The third army is a whole, and almost 20,000 machine gunners and 20,000 gunners were added.

Among the more than 30 non-commissioned schools in the northwest, it is enough to have just one or more graduates. After one and a half years of systematic training, they are already at the stage of internship. The battle against the revolutionary party is not a fierce foreign battle. It seems that it meets their requirements. In the future, after solving the problems of the revolutionary party, these troops will conduct an integrated training in combination with local troops and prisoners to further enhance the strength of the northwest.

Yan Xishan was a little depressed when he saw that he could not get a war. He also knew that sending graduates from the non-commissioned officer school was the best choice. If his third army was dispersed and went there, the effect might not be good. Instead, he would pray for counter-effects. The third army could play the greatest role by combining it into a whole. The rigorous training over the years has made them very tacit understanding. Small teams and platoon tactics are the advantages of the Third Army. Once they are disbanded, they are at best a qualified soldier, which cannot exert the strength of the Third Army.

Looking at Yan Xishan with a look of disappointment, Yang Yuanzhao and Feng Yuxiang looked at each other and laughed haha. The plan had been decided long ago, and Yan Xishan's third army was also in the plan, but they were just deliberately teasing him. The Third Army still plays a very important role in the entire battle plan. Destroying those living forces does not mean completely solving the revolutionary party. Only by killing his core, that is, the beheading operation and killing Nanjing, is the most critical. In the meantime, we must ensure that those people cannot escape, the foundation of the revolutionary party will be shaken with the notice foundation, and we may even go to the whole first.

Yang Yuanzhao curled his lips to Feng Yuxiang, and Feng Yuxiang shrugged helplessly. Finally, he told Yan Xishan the mission of the Third Army. After listening to it, Yan Xishan was stunned, as if it was the feeling of ice and fire. When the last moment came, the excitement in his heart was imagined. Finally, some wars were fought. As for the precautions mentioned by Feng Yuxiang, it was not within his consideration. In his opinion, the revolutionary army was a mob.

There is a reason why Yan Xishan is so arrogant. The Third Army is extremely powerful. Although it has not compared with the First and Second Army, in a large-scale exercise, the Third Army blocked the attacks of the same three armies. Although 24 hours later, with the help of three times the firepower and attack ability, the Third Army had to retreat. However, it was blocked three times its own strength, and the Third Army was still honored even though it was defeated. The regular army in the northwest was still like this. The revolutionary army, which was weaker than the Beiyang Army, had no problem with one division resisting eight or nine divisions.

In the plan, in addition to the extremely high requirements for the Third Army, in order to ensure that everything is foolproof, special combat brigades and paratrooper divisions will also be sent to act together. In order to completely eliminate the revolutionary party and paralyzed its central organization, the northwest will use air force troops that have never been used. From the airport in Wuhan, Hubei, to fly directly to Nanjing. In the suburbs of Nanjing, there is a huge airport built secretly with 18 reports. Built in the name of a racing stadium, a large number of fighter jets can be taken off and landed at the same time, and more than 500 transportation opportunities will be carried out together. A regiment of the Third Division, a paratrooper regiment and a regiment of the special combat brigade at the headquarters will be airborne to Nanjing.

Most of the troops of the Third Division were broken into pieces and went to Nanjing by train. Before the development, the entire Chinese railway was running normally. In one day, it transported about 40,000 people to the vicinity of Nanjing. There were 12 military warehouses around Nanjing that had been prepared long ago, and then gathered together. The rest would attack through water.

During this period, the Third Army will become the main force and completely block Nanjing, the most core city of the Revolutionary Party, and may have 10 times the military power in a maximum of 10 days, and pressing over from all directions. If the nodes cannot stick to the enemy, the number of people will be even greater.

After all these difficulties were clearly expressed to Yan Xishan, Yan Xishan nodded indifferently and almost rang all the way to make a phone call. The Third Army was also a fast-resisting anti-arms, and they were able to gather together as quickly as possible. (.)
