Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

After the two laughed, Boss Zhu looked at the map of North China and suddenly said, "Chairman, do you think we can start the campaign to recover North China in advance in this situation?"

As Zhangjiakou was recovered by the Eighth Route Army, He Zhengdao's troops successfully joined forces with the Jidong Army Division.In Chengde, there was only one capital and a small border town left by the Japanese army, and the rest of the territory was recovered by the Eighth Route Army.

It can be said that the Eighth Route Army has now encircled North China on three sides.In view of such a situation, as the commander-in-chief, Boss Zhu still wants to start the campaign to recover North China in advance and expand the influence of the Eighth Route Army again.

Facing Boss Zhu's question, Taizu said calmly: "Boss, although the current situation is beneficial to us, I'm afraid it won't be that easy to take down Beiping. At least there is nothing we can do for the time being.

As Zhengdao analyzed before the war, without an air force that can compete with the little devils, we will not be able to gain air supremacy.On the contrary, the little devil can use the air force and navy to continuously project troops with the help of Tianyan, a strategically important place.

But right now, we still have another problem, that is, whether we can manage it well after Beiping is captured.After the war, everything was left to be done, and we were in short supply of management personnel and relief supplies.You can't take it down and don't care about it, right? "

Compared with Boss Zhu, he paid more attention to the affairs of the army, but Taizu had to consider and think about problems from the overall situation.Perhaps in the eyes of many army generals, they now have the strength to compete with the Japanese army in North China.

But in Taizu's view, how to maintain the stability of the liberated areas is also an urgent problem to be solved.Now Shanxi and most of Henan are newly restored, and they already feel a certain degree of difficulty in managing them.

If there is one more North China, they will undoubtedly bear greater internal and external pressure.Taizu didn't have the idea of ​​regaining Beiping.But he knew that the fruits of victory were too great for the Eighth Route Army to swallow!

Listening to Taizu's words, Boss Zhu thought about it and found it reasonable, but he still said regretfully: "Well, in the final analysis, our foundation is still too weak. If this is the case, I'm afraid we will have to wait for a while ah!"

'Boss, we should be content.Back then, when we moved from the southern Jiangxi Soviet area to this place, we were poor and white at that time.Right now, you, the commander-in-chief, have nearly a million troops, and you are still not satisfied!

At that time we were in southern Jiangxi, and there were only a few bases in Jiangxi Province.But now?We have liberated areas in several provinces, regardless of the area under management or the population, they are much better than when we were at our best.

One needs to be content!Sometimes I also feel that Zhengdao is calmer than any of us in this matter.Not being greedy, taking every step down-to-earth, maybe it is the reason why he has the achievements he has today! '

Speaking of the current development of the liberated areas, the Yulin border area is also recognized as the strongest.Yulin undoubtedly provided the majority of the Eighth Route Army's current financial revenue.Moreover, He Zhengdao's battle captures are also the most among the main forces.

Most of the weapons and ammunition needed for training of the new troops expanding in the liberated area are provided by He Zhengdao.In this way, it also solved a big problem for the headquarters, and made the headquarters worry a lot.

Others said that Taizu favored He Zhengdao, but in Taizu's view, who wouldn't like this kind of general who can do things and is reassuring?Even Mr. Zhu, isn't he very fond of He Zhengdao now?

While the two were discussing the next development plan, He Zhengdao also received a telegram from the Hiraizumi defenders.The forwards of the Eighth Division of the Kwantung Army, which drove from Jinzhou, had already arrived in Hiraizumi.

The reconnaissance forces of the two sides also had a small-scale battle. Of course, the Eighth Route Army won the victory.After all, it is the special division commanded by Li Xiangdong who is responsible for the reconnaissance and patrol missions in Hiraizumi!

After receiving the telegram from Li Xiangdong, He Zhengdao looked at the map and said, "Chief of Staff, Hiraizumi, how many troops have we assembled so far?"

There is a reconnaissance regiment of Li Xiangdong, two main regiments of the Jidong Army Division, and a cavalry regiment of the Second Cavalry Division.In addition, a main regiment of the Second Infantry Division is not far from Hiraizumi, and I believe it will arrive within two days. '

'In this way, the eighth division that blocked the little devil should have no problem.To generate electricity for Hiraizumi's troops, Li Xiangdong will serve as the front-line commander, responsible for Hiraizumi's defense and counterattack.

In addition, the Fourth Heavy Artillery Regiment, which cooperates with the Second Infantry Division, will be transferred to Hiraizumi.With the cooperation of the Heavy Artillery Regiment, I believe that the Eighth Division will not be able to get a bargain.Tell Li Xiangdong, fight this battle well for me, and let the participating troops rotate more.

This eighth division is also an elite division of the Kwantung Army, and its combat effectiveness is still very strong.In the past, we used to do sneak attacks and ambushes, now is the time to really compete with them and see who is stronger! '

'Then what about Chengde? '

The heavy artillery regiment was transferred to Hiraizumi, and the Second Infantry Division, which was responsible for attacking Chengde, undoubtedly seemed a little weak in terms of siege weapons.But from He Zhengdao's point of view, I'm afraid the little devil didn't want to stick to Chengde either!

If the little devil really intends to stick to Chengde, then why do they want to hold the small city of Luanping in their hands?After all, the little devil still wants to prepare a way out for himself.In this way, how determined are they to stick to it? (To be continued.)

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

Accompanying the Eighth Division of the Kwantung Army to Hiraizumi, the Japanese and puppet troops gathered in the cities of Chengde and Luanping also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.At least in their opinion, I believe that the Eighth Division will be able to solve their current passive situation in a short time.

As for the Kwantung Army, after receiving a telegram from the Eighth Division, it was learned that the Eighth Route Army had assembled a large number of troops in the Pingquan area.Jimeiro Umegae suddenly felt that perhaps the Chengde troops did not need to withdraw to Peiping in such a hurry.

From the information they have collected so far, the Eighth Route Army has assembled a large number of main forces in the Shijiazhuang area, and is engaged in a fierce exchange of fire with the North China Front Army.In a short period of time, the Eighth Route Army will not be able to send many reinforcements.

Although the troops under the command of He Zhengdao have successfully merged with the troops of the Jidong Army Division, Umezai Jimiro feels that the number of available troops in the opponent's hands may not be too large, and they may not have no chance of winning back.

In addition to the Eighth Division that is currently arriving in Hiraizumi, the other two main divisions deployed by the Kwantung Army, one has arrived in the Xing'an League area, the other has arrived in the Tongliao area, and is moving in the direction of Chifeng.

Even the main division deployed to the Xing'an League area was more to prevent the Eighth Route Army from entering the Xing'an League area.But Umezai Jimiro knew in his heart that the division's main defenses were the Outer Mongolian Army and the Soviet Far East Army.

But he placed a division in the Xing'an League area, and the Eighth Route Army had to send a certain number of troops to defend.At this moment, the main divisions that have begun to move to the Chifeng area are fully capable of dealing with the Eighth Route Army currently fighting in Chifeng.

After all, according to the telegram sent by the Chifeng garrison, the number of troops deployed by the Eighth Route Army in Chifeng is presumably a main division.With less than 2 troops, a reorganized division is fully capable of dealing with it.

If they have a single division that can't deal with a main division of the Eighth Route Army, then Umezai Jimiro will also feel that the title of Asia's strongest army may really be lost.In this regard, he is still very confident.

What's more, judging from the intelligence they scouted, they arrived in the Pingquan area with the Eighth Division.The main force of the Eighth Route Army in Chengde is also rushing to the Pingquan area for reinforcements.This shows that the Eighth Route Army does not have many troops.

In view of this situation, Umezai Jimiro quickly sent a report to the Eighth Division: "Order the Eighth Division, don't rush to break through and rescue, just have a good contact with the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the Hiraizumi area, let these Eighth Route Army feel the strength of the imperial army. tough.

As long as the Eighth Division can continue to eliminate the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the Pingquan area, then we can also take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate more Eighth Route Army and create opportunities for the subsequent recovery of Rehe and Chahar.

At the same time, the troops in Chengde and Luanping were ordered to strengthen their guard against night attacks and infiltrations by the Eighth Route Army.If there is a chance, let them be ready to counterattack at any time, and wipe out the Eighth Route Army entering the Chengde area in one fell swoop. "

Facing the self-confidence of Umeshiji Miro, He Zhengdao quickly told him with practical actions that it was basically an extravagant hope to contain the main force of the Eighth Route Army.The number of troops he has in Chengde is far beyond his imagination.

When He Zhengdao went to the Pingquan area, he dispatched several main regiments for reinforcements, and even asked these troops to march in a hurry during the day without avoiding the little devil's aerial reconnaissance.Ye Jianying also felt very puzzled by such an order.

But He Zhengdao quickly explained: "Chief of Staff, the little devil can guess how many troops we have right now. Let these main forces rush to reinforce, I believe it will also attract the little devil's attention.

Earlier, I ordered the Jidong Army Division to deploy two main regiments to advance to Chaoyang and Huludao, and let them open up anti-Japanese base areas behind enemy lines in the two places, creating chaos and diverting the attention of the Kwantung Army.

Now is the best time for them to enter.Taking advantage of the arrival of the Little Devil's Eighth Division in Hiraizumi, I don't think the Japanese troops in the other two places would have thought that we would disperse our forces and enter their rear to wreak havoc!

Even if they knew, if they wanted to encircle and suppress these two main regiments, they would also restrain the Kwantung Army's garrisons deployed in the two places.In this way, our troops in Chengde will not have to bear too much pressure.

In addition, there are still a large number of main forces in the Eastern Jidong Army Division, which are engaged in a round of battle with the North China Front Army.Regarding this point, I don't think the little devil can feel it!The combat effectiveness of these round-to-round troops should also have improved.

When the time is right, let the Jidong Army Division send some more troops to Huludao, I'm afraid the little devils will be anxious to get angry!When the anti-union forces that entered Benxi and Dandong successfully completed their divisions, it was time for the Jidong Army Division to advance to Fengtian.

I want to let the little devils outside the pass taste the taste of extinguishing fires everywhere and starting fires everywhere.Only by mobilizing all their troops can we find an opportunity to take a bite. "

After hearing He Zhengdao's deployment, Ye Jianying thought for a while and said, "This tactic is somewhat similar to the cow-raising tactic?"

'good!At present, our troops have not yet been reorganized, and most of the Jidong Army Division is fighting in regiments.The overall combat capability is still somewhat behind us.However, it would not be a big problem to carry out a sabotage attack behind enemy lines.

If the Jidong Army Division can successfully occupy Huludao, then we will have the frontier to march into Fengtian.At that time, let the anti-union forces outside the pass cooperate, and there may be a chance to regain Fengtian.

If we can gain a firm foothold in Fengtian, I believe it will not be easy for the Kwantung Army to drive us out again.Most importantly, we also have a forward position to attack at any time. '

This kind of design and layout was indeed somewhat beyond Ye Jianying's expectations.But he felt that He Zhengdao's current battle plan had basically no problems, and every step was solid.

Perhaps as He Zhengdao said, maybe it won't be long before their army, which aims to recover the Northeast, really has a chance to recover Fengtian.If this can be achieved, I am afraid that it will also boost the morale of the soldiers and civilians in the Anti-Japanese War all over the country!

After talking about some of his strategic assumptions, He Zhengdao continued: "Send a telegram to the Second Division, asking them to assemble the rest of the main force of the division headquarters, set up an ambush in Luanping, and pay close attention to the movements of the Japanese troops in Chengde.

At the same time, the Jidong Army Division was ordered to deploy at least three main regiments and rush to deploy defenses near the road from Miyun to Luanping.As long as the North China Front Army dares to send troops, it will resolutely block and not let a single soldier go.

Secondly, an order was issued to all county brigades and district teams in Chengde, so that the current county brigades and district teams in all counties will change their outfits with our garrison troops.Tell these troops, let them threaten Chengde with mighty force. "

As soon as these orders came out, Ye Jianying immediately came to his senses and said, "Commander, do you want to play a trick with the little devil?"

'good!According to the telegram sent by Li Xiangdong, after the Eighth Division arrived in Hiraizumi, they were not in a hurry to launch an attack. On the contrary, they calmly built fortifications in Hiraizumi.What do you think the kid is up to?
