Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

After thinking for a while, He Zhengdao continued: "Call Qiu Jingshan back, and move the supplies gathered in Xuji to the rear as much as possible before starting the war. I will arrange personnel to receive those supplies and find a place for them to settle.

If the Japanese army attacked fiercely and withdrew from Xuji at the right time, the order of the retreat of the troops must be guaranteed.I will arrange a reconnaissance team nearby to join them.

In addition, let the reconnaissance team arrange some retreat channels for them.Remember, bring more mines with you.Landmines are very useful when used well.Try to keep materials and personnel as much as possible. "

After receiving a telegram from He Zhengdao, Qiu Jingshan also heaved a long sigh of relief when he learned that the main force would send a reconnaissance team to assist in the retreat.Even the brigade commander in charge felt a lot more at ease.

Even if Qiu Jingshan is only a colonel commander, but this infantry brigade commander of the 77th Army is actually a colonel brigade commander.Most importantly, the brigade commander actually did not object to the possibility of joining the Eighth Route Army in the future.

Judging from the current situation, it is really unclear who will lead the war between the Central Army and the Eighth Route Army in the future.But in the eyes of this brigade commander, if he works with the Eighth Route Army, at least he doesn't have to worry about being betrayed and abandoned.

Now that Qiu Jingshan had just arrived in Xuji, the Eighth Route Army decided to help them retreat at that time, which also showed that the Eighth Route Army really regarded them as friendly troops.Even this kind of help may annex his infantry brigade.

It might be better to be alive than to be killed or captured by the little devil!

Seeing that the Japanese army assembled a cavalry brigade at Xuji, He Zhengdao finally said: "Give power to the reconnaissance regiment and order them to set up an ambush outside Gushi City before dawn tomorrow.

Equip them with a batch of assault rifles sent from the rear.If the Japanese army wanted to carry out a surprise attack, they would definitely send out these cavalry.Tell the participating troops ahead, I want all the cavalry of these little devils! "

'Yes, Commander! '

In He Zhengdao's view, this cavalry brigade was undoubtedly the little devil's mobile unit.Even if they deployed a killer move in advance behind Xu Ji, the ones who wanted to kill them were more likely to be the little devil's infantry brigade.

As for the cavalry brigade, He Zhengdao hoped to give them a counter-ambush when they made a surprise attack.Destroying the cavalry brigade of the little devil is equivalent to cutting off an arm of the third division.

In the next battle, He Zhengdao will command the New 67th Army to slowly dismember the seemingly huge Third Division in a piecemeal manner.One day, they will know how stupid it is to advance to Xinyang to fight.

He Zhengdao, who had already prepared for it in advance, saw that the little devil finally showed his true colors this time, and sent so many troops to implement surprise tactics.I also know that the Japanese army will speed up the invasion and occupation of the entire city of Xinyang.

I understand that once these counties fall into the hands of the Japanese army, their activities in the Xinyang area will be subject to many restrictions in the future.He Zhengdao suddenly felt that the little devil should not be allowed to occupy Xinyang so easily.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Chief of Staff, send a telegram to Li Xiangdong and ask him to come to the headquarters!"

'good!Calling Xiao Li over at this time, is there any new mission? '

'Well, I plan to send Li Xiangdong to the rear of the little devil.During this period of time, the little devil has mobilized a lot of puppet troops and garrison troops from Fuyang and other places into various parts of Fuyang to clean up our guerrillas to ensure the safety of their supply lines.

Even in the future, I don't plan to die with the little devil in Xinyang territory, but I can't make the little devil too easy.Let Li Xiangdong lead a reconnaissance team to cooperate with Lin Tie's camouflage battalion, I believe it can completely mess up the little devil's rear.

As long as Li Xiangdong can do this, it will be a multiple-choice question before the little devil.Do they want Xinyang, or do they want to ensure the safety of the other occupied areas?I'm going to put the little devil in the same dilemma.

Once the little devil withdraws troops from the front line to return to the defense, then we have a chance to deal a fatal blow to the little devil.Once the Third Division is severely damaged by us, the little devil's garrison in Anhui is bound to face a big crisis.

At that time, let the New Fourth Army cooperate with the 117th Division, and maybe we can recover several remote counties in Anhui.With the county seat as our forward position, little devils will not be able to live in Anhui in the future. '

Having said that, Luo Ruiqing also felt that He Zhengdao's strategy of copying the old nest's tactics was really a good way.As far as their current strength is concerned, if they give up some counties, they can completely deal with the Japanese army's advance and suppression.

Most importantly, the materials seized in the previous round were enough for the main force that retreated into the mountains to fight guerrilla warfare to persist for a long time.And fighting guerrilla warfare will also have corresponding gains.

On the other hand, the little devils who will occupy the counties of Xinyang at that time, if they want to seize supplies to protect the troops, I'm afraid it is impossible at all.This means that they need to mobilize supplies from the rear to ensure the supply of troops on the front line.

If the supply line in the rear is cut off, the Japanese army that invades Xinyang may fall into a crisis of insufficient supplies.Even if the Eighth Route Army does not attack at that time, it is possible to starve these little devils to death.

Thinking about this clearly, Luo Ruiqing said with a smile: "This is really a stroke of genius! If this trick is used well, the little devil will probably have a headache next time. This is the triangle defense tactic that the commander wants, right?"

'That's right!But this is just an experiment. The most important thing is to see if Li Xiangdong can open up the situation after he passes by.As long as they can open up the situation, the rest will be easier to do. '

At this time, sending a confidant general like Li Xiangdong to the enemy's rear to command operations is enough to show that He Zhengdao attaches great importance to this task.But in He Zhengdao's view, such a task is not afraid of his confidants passing by and not at ease.

Sending too many troops will make the little devils wary and give them time to send troops from other places to encircle them.In order to ensure the suddenness of this plan, an elite small force must be dispatched.

For a unit that can complete such a difficult task, which one should we choose instead of the reconnaissance unit? (To be continued.)

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Although the fall of Wuhan is inevitable, the new 67th Army and the 77th Army may also be caught in a double attack by the Japanese army.But in He Zhengdao's view, if this crisis can be reversed, it will also be of great benefit to the development of the Eighth Route Army in Central China.

Once the Central Army abandons Wuhan, its main force is bound to withdraw to the rear.As for the Xinyang area, which was surrounded by the Japanese army, the Central Army would not dare to easily send troops to fight against the enemy's rear.

This means that for a long time to come, He Zhengdao will have the final say here.Without the check and balance of the Central Army, the Eighth Route Army would be able to operate freely behind enemy lines, and even the Central Army would not be able to stop their rise.

The longer the Japanese army occupied these places, the more opportunities it gave the Eighth Route Army to win over the hearts of the people in the occupied areas.In time, even if the Central Army wanted to take back this place, they would have to ask the Eighth Route Army and the people here whether they agree.

Sending Li Xiangdong to the enemy's rear to carry out armed resistance is also a tactic often used by the Eighth Route Army in the north.Jump out of the encirclement of the little devils, go to the periphery to open up new situations, and contain the development of the Japanese army in front and behind.

As long as the troops dispatched can really open up a new base behind the enemy, it will also play a rare role in the future activities of the Eighth Route Army in Hubei, Henan and Anhui, expanding the strategic depth of the Central China Military Region.

If the bases of the Eighth Route Army operating in Hebei, Shandong and Henan can really be connected together, then the Eighth Route Army will have the most stable strategic frontier if it wants to enter the south in the future.This will also have a great effect on the recovery of the South in the future.

But all of this is just a hypothesis. Whether this goal can be achieved depends on whether the Eighth Route Army can complete this strategic arrangement in the future.At least this time the new 67th Army went south, giving it a chance.

If you don't catch it, I'm afraid the Eighth Route Army will regret it in the future!

When He Zhengdao made a plan to jump part of the main force to the periphery to fight according to the battlefield situation.The Fifth Infantry Brigade of the Japanese Third Division also arrived at the Xuji position defended by the 77th Army Infantry Brigade.

At about noon, the Japanese heavy artillery unit, which had already been deployed, launched a fierce shelling first.Even the infantry brigade guarding Xuji already knew that the Japanese army would attack them tonight.But this offensive still shocked them.

Although many of the fortifications built by the infantry brigade in Xuji can withstand this kind of heavy artillery.However, many trenches in the forward positions were bombed by heavy artillery.Many of the recruits staying in the bomb defense cave were also shivering with fright.

On the other hand, some veterans seldom said leisurely: "Afraid of a ball! Just relying on the shells of the little devils, we still can't blow up our anti-blasting holes. When the shelling is over, let me run faster and kill a few more little devils." Make some money."

Although it is not clear how many troops were dispatched by the Japanese army to attack Xuji tonight.But these battle-hardened veterans, through the bombardment carried out by the little devil, can more or less tell that the little devil is going to play for real tonight.

This means that whether they can survive tonight is a question worth thinking about.Fortunately, they are all veterans, and they know that most of them have made enough money in previous battles.Can kill one more is one!

In the words of many anti-Japanese officers and soldiers, killing a little devil will make you back your money.Kill two, and they earn one!

The recruit who was staying next to the veteran still said in a panic: "What kind of cannon is this, why is it so loud?"

'This is the devil's heavy artillery. If you don't hide in this artillery hole and stay in the position, if you really let this kind of artillery hit you, you will be seriously injured if you don't die.If he was hit directly, he might not even be able to find a complete corpse! '

When the recruits heard what the veteran said, their faces turned pale with fright.Some veterans who couldn't stand it said seriously: "Okay, don't scare these new melons. When you get to the battlefield, you just need to follow us closely.

On the battlefield, don't be afraid of death, the more you are afraid of death, the more you will die.Wait for us to listen to the commander. Once the commander orders to retreat, we will follow us more nimbly.Really let the little devil catch up, even if life is worse than death! "

When the little devil was shelling, the soldiers in the anti-bunker hole were all whispering to each other.But for the brigade commander of the infantry brigade and Qiu Jingshan, they stayed in the bunker headquarters and watched the little devil slowly rolling over through the binoculars.

Seeing the little devils mobilizing so many troops at once, the infantry brigade commander was very worried and said: "These little devils seem to want to take down our forward positions in one go! At least one infantry soldier is involved in this one-time attacking force." Alliance?"

'Since the little devils want to do this, then we will fulfill them.Order the mortar troops in the rear, wait for our orders at any time after the shelling of the little devils stops, and cover the attacking little devils with artillery fire.

After the fight, they retreated early.The remaining infantry in the forward position only need to repel the little devil's attack once.Then he began to retreat, giving up the forward position to the little devil.In this way, the forward positions will buy time to retreat. '

'At this time, should we use our artillery units? '

'If you don't use it at this time, when will you use it?Call the Artillery Battalion and pass on the order.Tell the artillery battalion that each mortar can fire up to five shells, and immediately withdraw the artillery and run away after firing, so as not to let the little devil's heavy artillery stare at it.

Except for the gunners, the rest of the infantry who cooperate with the artillery units can load the extra shells in advance and pull them away.These shells are still very precious to us, and they can be used in guerrilla warfare in the mountains in the future! '
