In addition to the newly formed Tenth Army, there are two other armies in the southeast region. The

Seventh Army was reorganized on the basis of the Guangxi clique.

The original body of this army was the Seventh Army of the former Guangxi Army.

In the sequence of the Red Alert Corps, it belongs to the Field Army.

A total of six motorized infantry divisions were organized.

The 25th, 26th, 27th, 28th, 53rd, 54th motorized infantry divisions and the 9th independent heavy artillery division.

The total force is about 150,000.

There is also the 55th Army, which was reorganized on the basis of the Guangdong Army.

It has the 55th, 56th, 57th, 58th, 59th, 60th and semi-motorized infantry divisions and the 10th independent heavy artillery division.

The total force is just over 100,000.

It belongs to the second-line army.

In the entire southeast region, the Red Alert Corps already has the strength of three armies.

The total force is as high as 400,000.

The task of attacking Jiangxi Province this time fell on the Seventh and Tenth Army.

The Tenth Army will launch an attack from Fujian.

Directly attack from Chong'an and attack Shangrao to the north.

Shangrao is also one of the node cities of the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Railway.

Jiangxi itself is a mountainous area.

Taking the railway line and blocking other routes is equivalent to cutting off the land route between Jiangxi and Zhejiang.

After blocking their reinforcements, attack Nanchang directly to the east.

The Seventh Army will send three divisions of troops to attack eastward along the western section of the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Railway.

The target is also Nanchang.

This place has also been selected as the place for a decisive battle with the main force of the National Army.

In addition, the Seventh Army and the Tenth Army will each send a division of troops to attack the southern part of Jiangxi.

The National Army does not have many troops deployed here.

100,000 troops are gathered in Nanchang and surrounding areas.

The transportation in the southern part of Jiangxi is extremely inconvenient, and basically the main force of the National Army is concentrated in northern Jiangxi.

However, there are more than 20,000 troops in the southern part of Jiangxi, a total of three divisions.

When Chiang Kai-shek was preparing to assemble a large army to attack Fujian.

The Red Alert Corps took the lead in launching an attack a few days later.

The 10th Motorized Division of the 10th Army, which had just marched to the Chong'an area, directly launched an attack on Qianshan.

The mountains in the Chong'an area are still very steep.

The famous Wuyi Mountain is here, and it is also at the junction of the two provinces.

Qianshan is also located in Wuyi Mountain.

The terrain here is complex and not suitable for the deployment of large troops.

The National Army also deployed more than 30,000 people here, a total of two divisions of elite troops.

This force was urgently transferred from Zhejiang.

On the other side, the Seventh Army also launched a fierce attack on Pingxiang, the western gate of Nanchang.

The Seventh Army dispatched a total of two divisions of troops.

The National Army opposite them had more than 50,000 people.

The southern part of Jiangxi was not immune to the war.

Faced with the sudden attack of the Red Alert Corps on Jiangxi.

It also completely disrupted Chiang Kai-shek's plan.

He began to quickly mobilize the army to enter Jiangxi to fight.

Once Fujian was lost, Jiangxi became a salient and was directly attacked from both sides.

Despite this, Chiang Kai-shek was still unwilling to lose Jiangxi.

Because if Jiangxi is lost, he will be in real danger.

Now the provinces under his control are only Zhejiang, Anhui, Jiangsu, Henan and Hubei.

Zhejiang is his money bag.

If Jiangxi is lost, the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Railway will become the best route for the Red Alert Corps to attack Zhejiang.

So no matter what, northern Jiangxi must be defended.

The top priority is Nanchang.

As long as this transportation hub is defended, Anhui and Zhejiang will be safe.

This time, Chiang Kai-shek also spent a lot of money and prepared to transfer most of the elite troops.

At the same time, he also asked the troops in Zhejiang to attack Fujian in the south.

He wanted to threaten the flank and rear of the Tenth Army.

This is also a mountainous terrain.

The First Mountain Infantry Division plus the Nineteenth Army are more than enough to defend here.

Facing the attacks from the Red Alert Corps in two directions.

The pressure on the National Army is not ordinary.

And many soldiers have no intention of fighting against the Red Alert Corps.

Because they didn't even see anyone.

They were bombed and bombarded one after another.

In the southeast region, the Air Force established the Second Air Force.

Under the continuous expansion.

The current scale of the Second Air Force is not small.

There are 6 MiG fighter squadrons under its command, with a total of more than 350 aircraft.

There are also 10 Invader fighter-bomber squadrons.

There are 300 more here.

There are also peacekeeping bombers, bandicoot transport aircraft, Century strategic bombers/transport aircraft, and various types of reconnaissance aircraft.

There are more than 400 here.

This does not include the hundreds of fighters of Shanghai Airlines, the number has exceeded 1,000.

Although it is much smaller than the scale of the First Air Force.

But this scale is scary enough.

At least the National Army can only be bombed.

Relying on the mountainous terrain, the National Army has built a lot of solid fortifications.

The Air Force also brought back the Grand Slam bunker-buster bomb.

In addition, a large number of high-footed glass bunker-buster bombs were used.

This bunker-buster bomb is a smaller version of the Grand Slam.

The total weight exceeds 5 tons.

Although the weight is half of the Grand Slam.

But the power is still good.

Not to mention the artillery.

Both the Seventh Army and the Tenth Army are in the sequence of the common field army.

Therefore, the artillery equipped by the divisional artillery is 155mm vehicle-mounted howitzers.

The independent heavy artillery division is equipped with self-propelled artillery, including the Wild Bee 155mm self-propelled artillery and the Black Panther 210mm large-caliber self-propelled howitzer.

Facing the Red Alert Corps with absolute equipment advantages.

In addition, the Kuomintang soldiers did not have a strong will to fight against the Red Alert Corps.

Some soldiers even hoped to join the Red Alert Corps.

Because of the 14 articles signed by Chiang Kai-shek, which were humiliating to the country, the troops were somewhat disunited.

Three days later, Pingxiang and Qianshan were successively breached.

The Red Alert troops basically used three-pronged attacks.

Aircraft bombing, artillery bombardment, and tank charge.

Although the Grizzli light tank weighs only more than 18 tons, its mobility is very good.

The firepower is also very strong, and the armor is not particularly weak. (To read the violent novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

Even the Japanese Douding tanks can be arrogant in the country, let alone the Grizzli.

Moreover, in combat in such areas, the Grizzli is still relatively handy.

If the Guardian tank comes, it is estimated that few bridges can withstand this weight.

Even the Black Panther self-propelled artillery has broken down a lot.

Fortunately, the weight of the Wild Bee self-propelled artillery is controlled within 20 tons.[]

Otherwise, these heavy artillery divisions would have to be deployed.

How could these national troops withstand such heavy bombardment?

So it is normal that these two lines of defense were broken one after another.

The Seventh Army in Pingxiang can be said to have made great strides along the way.

Even so, it took four days to reach Nanchang.

The main traffic was really bad, and it was a rainy season.

The national army blew up a lot of railways and roads when retreating.

So it took so long to reach these two hundred kilometers.

The 100,000 national troops in Shangrao were still struggling to hold on.

When the Seventh Army arrived at the gates of Nanchang, they were worried that their retreat would be cut off, so they decisively gave up Shangrao and retreated to Nanchang.

Two days later, the two sides launched a decisive battle in Nanchang.

The two sides had more than 400,000 troops participating in the war. Among them, the national army was as high as 300,000.

The Red Alert Corps had only five divisions with more than 100,000 troops.

But they still beat the more than 300,000 national troops to retreat.

After the two sides fought fiercely for two days again, three divisions of reinforcements arrived in Nanchang.

The Red Alert Corps's troops increased to eight divisions, with a total force of more than 170,000.

Three days later, after losing more than 100,000 people, the Nationalist Army retreated to Nanchang and began to evacuate towards Jiujiang. The

Seventh Army sent two divisions to pursue.

The Nationalist Army retreated again, and stopped only after retreating to the other side of the Yangtze River.

This time, the Seventh Army did not continue to pursue.

Chiang Kai-shek's sense of uneasiness had reached its peak.

This battle destroyed more than 100,000 of his elite troops.

The Nationalist Army was also seriously injured.

So he began to spend a lot of money to build the Yangtze River defense line.

At the same time, he built the Yellow River defense line in the north with the Yellow River as the boundary.

Here, he began to urge Britain and the United States to start purchasing advanced weapons and equipment.

(There is nothing much to write about the domestic battles. Except for the key battles, the others will be briefly written, otherwise it will be too watery. There are still many plots to come.)

After half a month of fighting, Jiang Fan went to Jiangxi and Fujian provinces.

Now Jiang Fan can be said to have occupied half of the country.

The troops also exceeded one million.

The number of divisions alone has reached 60.

If three mountain infantry divisions, two airborne divisions, and two marine divisions are included, the number of division-level units has reached 67.

The average strength of each division is about 20,000. The total strength of the army has reached 134 million.

And it has not yet counted the former Northeast Army and the 19th Route Army that are being reorganized.

There are 300,000 people here alone, a total of three armies.

The strength has exceeded the 1.5 million mark.

Jiang Fan decided to work harder to make the army exceed the scale of two million.

The matter of unification has also been put on the agenda.

This great cause must be completed 35 years at the latest.

World War II will definitely break out.

He also has to make adequate preparations for this war.

Adding two more provinces, the southeast already has five provinces.

These five provinces have a large population, and the total population combined is several times that of the five provinces in the northeast.

The population here is directly over 100 million.

After discussing with Li Zongren, it was decided to transfer Zhang Zuoxiang.

His identity is a member of the Northeast Administrative Committee and the first deputy chief of the State Council.

With Zhang Zuoxiang's ability, it is not a big problem to manage the five southeastern provinces.

As the sworn brother of Fengjun Marshal Zhang Zuolin and the minister entrusted with the care of the orphans.

Zhang Zuoxiang's ability is naturally needless to say.

Although he does not have a strong pioneering ability, he is more than enough to maintain the status quo.

Moreover, the land reform work in the five southeastern provinces can also be carried out after Zhang Zuoxiang is in place.

However, the five southeastern provinces are very different from the five northeastern provinces.

The southeast region itself is a rich place with a very dense population.

In Guangdong alone, the population exceeds 30 million, which is equivalent to the total population of the five northeastern provinces.

The population of Hunan and Guangdong is similar, with a population size of nearly 30 million.

Although the population of Jiangxi, Guangxi and Fujian is smaller.

They are 17 million, 10 million and 12 million respectively, but the total population is 40 million.

Moreover, the terrain of Guangxi and Fujian is mountainous, and there is very little arable area.

These two provinces can implement the land reform policy of the Northeast.

At present, many landlords in these provinces have fled.

Some have chosen to directly hand over the land for money.

Although they can't sell it for much money according to the market price, at least they can keep their property and don't have to worry all day.

Although the two neighboring provinces of Hunan and Jiangxi also have mountainous terrain, they are both lands of fish and rice.

The grain output in these two provinces is not low.

In terms of land annexation, these two provinces are also very serious.

Basically, the arable land is in the hands of landlords and compradors.

However, after these landlords could not cause any waves, they all ran away with their property, and the remaining ones also chose to hand it over honestly.

The situation in Guangdong is much better.

The situation of land annexation is not very serious.

After all, the money from doing business is much more than that from competing with farmers for food in the fields.

Only the poorer the place, the more important the land will be.

Compared with the bloody storm in the Northeast, the land reform work in the five southeastern provinces has been smooth and peaceful, with a feeling of moistening things silently.

This is also frightened by the bloody storm in the Northeast.

Only by using such drastic measures can the redistribution of land resources be smoothly completed.
