Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

In fact, when the U.S. military proposed to set up an observation team, He Zhengdao realized that the U.S. military would propose conditions to go to the front to watch the battle.After all, only by going to the front line to watch the battle can we truly see the strength of the Eighth Route Army.

And He Zhengdao felt that since the cooperation agreement was signed, it was to show sincerity.Naturally, such a request is not easy to refuse.Even in He Zhengdao's view, letting the U.S. military know about the reality of the Eighth Route Army will help the U.S. military pay more attention to it.

At least in He Zhengdao's view, in the procurement list for this military aid, He Zhengdao also expressed his hope to purchase a batch of American bombers.As for fighter jets, the Eighth Route Army did not purchase them, which is obviously abnormal.

Therefore, I believe that the news that the Eighth Route Army has already produced its own fighter jets will not be kept from the US military for a long time.It's just that some things are thrown out from time to time, which makes the US military feel amazed and shocked, and it also helps to increase the mystery of the Eighth Route Army.

Hearing that the deputy head of state did not object to them sending people to the front to watch the battle, Major General Sam was naturally very happy.After the cooperation agreement was reached, Major General Sam could also feel that the Yan'an side also expressed more sincerity to them.

This also means that they can learn more about the strength and potential of the Eighth Route Army, which will also help further cooperation between the US military and the Eighth Route Army in the future.Just sending a front-line spectator representative also requires careful consideration.

After all, during several negotiations, the Eighth Route Army emphasized the importance of secrecy.This means that the delegations they send to the front must keep secret what they see, and must not be good at leaking it without permission.

If there is a leak, I believe the Eighth Route Army will also express distrust towards the US military.This will have a very far-reaching impact on the further cooperation between the two armies in the future!

Perhaps it was the German army that opened the prelude to the European War, which made Riba, who was far away in Asia, see an opportunity.Hibachi, who originally implemented a northward policy, finally realized that if he wanted to defeat the Soviet Union, it might be difficult to do it with his current strength.

The battle between the two armies in the Nomonhan area also made Ribo truly realize that the Soviet Union's deployment of troops in the Far East should not be underestimated.What made the Japanese even more ashamed was that they suffered a lot in this battle.

In view of this change in the international situation, the Japanese army finally decided to change the strategy of going north and implement the strategy of going south that had been prepared earlier.Take the opportunity to go south to seize the colonies of Western countries in Asia and the Pacific.

In order to achieve this, Japan must adjust its policy towards the Soviet Union in order to consolidate the security of the Northeast China region it occupied, and hope to end the current stalemate of the Anti-Japanese War as soon as possible by prompting the Soviet Union to stop aiding China.

In fact, the Kwantung Army undoubtedly disagreed with the decision made by the Ribo Cabinet.In their view, the primary task of the Kwantung Army stationing troops in the Northeast was to prevent and deal with the Soviet Far East Army.

The battle between the Soviet Far East Army and them this time was more of a surprise attack and looting.Just when the Kwantung Army was planning to intensify its counterattack, the Soviet Far East Army suddenly shrank its troops and switched from offense to defense.

It can also be seen from this point that the Soviet Far East Army has lost its edge.If the Kwantung Army launches a counterattack, I believe it will recover the losses it suffered on the battlefield before, and truly let the Soviet Union know that the Kwantung Army is the strongest army in Asia.

It is a pity that the Kwantung Army Command did not dare to disobey the sudden truce order issued by the cabinet.Although it seemed a bit aggrieved, during the truce, the Kwantung Army felt that the Eighth Route Army was more to blame for their losses.

If the Eighth Route Army hadn't raided their Rehe and Shanhaiguan areas at this time, I believe the Kwantung Army's response would not have been so embarrassing.Since the Soviet Far East Army cannot fight, they can only vent their anger to the Eighth Route Army.

When Japan's representatives in the Soviet Union began to negotiate an armistice with the Soviet Union, the Japan's cabinet also issued instructions to restore communication between Northeast China and North China and eliminate the Eighth Route Army currently confronting it.

Although in the battle of Nuomenhan, the Kwantung Army lost a lot.But after the armistice agreement was reached, the Kwantung Army also began to intensively deploy a combat plan to counterattack the Eighth Route Army.I hope to use this battle to re-establish the prestige of the Kwantung Army.

Just to carry out a counter-offensive, the Kwantung Army also needs to deploy and adjust its forces.Most importantly, as the Kwantung Army successively collected information, they already knew that the Eighth Route Army that was confronting them was not simple.

Although the Kwantung Army still used the name "independent column" for He Zhengdao's troops.However, according to the intelligence of the Kwantung Army, the scale of the independent column confronting them now has far exceeded their expectations.

Three columns, four cavalry divisions, seven infantry divisions, plus the garrison deployed on the front line, the Kwantung Army was surprised to find out.This independent column, which was regarded as a major enemy by the Japanese army at the time, has now expanded to a scale of more than 20.

If you count the garrison troops deployed in various places, the strength of this force is more than 30.Such a scale of troops really surprised the Kwantung Army and the Japanese Army, and they felt more and more that the Eighth Route Army was their great enemy.

Looking at the places where the Eighth Route Army troops stationed troops marked on the map, Commander Meisai Jimeiro also sighed: "In just over two years, this army, which originally only had about 2 people, has expanded tenfold. less than scale.

This speed of military expansion is really unbelievable.The most surprising thing is that the combat effectiveness and weaponry of this unit have also been greatly improved compared to two years ago. We really need to pay attention to it.

Next, we must eliminate this army as much as possible before winter arrives.Even if the Ministry cannot be completely wiped out, it is necessary to open up contact with the North China Front Army as soon as possible.This battle is only allowed to succeed, not to fail! "

'Hi! '

The generals of the Kwantung Army who gathered together looked at Jimiro Umesai with a serious expression on his face, and they also knew that this counterattack was also a battle for their Kwantung Army to avenge their shame.If he can't win again, Jimiro Umezai will definitely step down too.

The military ministers in the country were already dissatisfied with failing to defeat the Soviet Far East Army.If they can't even win a single column of the Eighth Route Army, it will undoubtedly be a disgrace to them, and it will undoubtedly discredit the Kwantung Army!

Looking at the generals under his command, Umezai Jimiro also said in a timely manner: "The Army Aviation Unit will also fully cooperate in this counterattack. The second division will be the right-hand army, and the focus will be on the front line of Jinzhou.

Your division must recover the Eighth Route Army troops occupying Jinxi in the shortest possible time, and cooperate with the Japanese troops stationed in Qinhuangdao to recover the Shanhaiguan area occupied by them and open up the communication channel with the North China Front Army.

The Left Route Army was in charge of the Seventh Division, which cooperated with the armored brigade deployed in the Xing'an League area, focusing on attacking the Eighth Route Army troops deployed in the Tongliao and Chifeng areas.And strive to recover the Chengde area occupied by the Eighth Route Army in the shortest possible time.

This battle is related to the honor of our Kwantung Army, and I hope that all division leaders will go all out.The rest of the troops that cooperated with the attack are also fighting bravely to defend the honor of our army. Do you hear clearly? "

'Yes, Your Excellency, Commander! '

When the Kwantung Army convened the generals to issue combat orders, He Zhengdao, who returned to the front line, also called the military and political heads of the three columns to start a meeting.According to the current situation, the corresponding force deployment is carried out.

According to the information provided by the front-line reconnaissance troops and the intelligence department, He Zhengdao can easily judge the area that the Kwantung Army will focus on attacking this time.The Kwantung Army dared to do this because it felt that there was no need to hide too much.

After all, this time the Kwantung Army's counterattack was almost the best.In Umezai Jimiro's words, that is to crush the Eighth Route Army with strength.Let the Eighth Route Army who took advantage of the fire earlier to really see how strong the Kwantung Army's combat effectiveness is.

'From the information collected so far, the Kwantung Army will focus on attacking areas next, which should be Tongliao and Jinxi.In response to this situation, I decided that the first column will be responsible for the incoming enemies in the direction of Tongliao, and the third column will be responsible for the incoming enemies in the Jinxi area.

As for the second column, it will be deployed accordingly as a mobile force.In order to ensure that it was possible for the Japanese army to launch a surprise attack from the grassland area, the Second Column did not deploy at least the main force of a cavalry division in the area bordering the Xing'an League and Xilindunle.

In addition, in order to contain the Japanese armored forces, minefields were laid out in areas suitable for Japanese armored forces to attack.Anyway, there are no herdsmen grazing there, so temporarily block it completely.

The deployment of a cavalry division is more to guard against the infiltration and surprise attacks of the cavalry units of the Kwantung Army.The new division of the second column will temporarily act as the reserve force of the first column, and the remaining three cavalry divisions will be transferred to eastern Jidong.

If there is no accident, the troops deployed by the Japanese army in the Qinhuangdao area this time may also participate in the attack.In order to ensure the safety of the Eastern Hebei region, it is also very necessary to deploy two cavalry divisions as mobile units.

The special division directly under the column is still responsible for the defense of the Chaoyang area.According to the needs of the battlefield situation, your department must be ready for support at any time.A cavalry division of the Second Column will also be on standby with the special division.

As for the artillery division and armored brigade directly under it, they also entered the Chifeng and Chaoyang areas on standby.As for the rest of the reserve forces, starting from today, they will fully enter the state of martial law and prepare for war. It is necessary to ensure the safety and stability of the liberated areas, and at the same time make air defense preparations. '

In He Zhengdao's view, placing the direct column in the middle is more convenient to support the first and third columns at any time.After this series of combat orders were issued, the defensive positions built by the Eighth Route Army on the front line all entered a state of first-level combat readiness.

During this period, the weapons and ammunition transported from the rear were also continuously transported to the frontline troops.Sufficient ammunition reserves also gave reassurance to the frontline troops participating in the war.

In order to facilitate the grasp of the fighting situation on the front line, He Zhengdao's headquarters will also be located in the Hiraizumi area.As for the stability work in the rear, it will naturally be handed over to political commissar Chen Yun.On this issue, Chen Yun has no opinion.

As the Kwantung Army and the Northeast Field Army began to move, after the meeting, He Zhengdao looked at Ye Jianying and said, "Chief of Staff, send a telegram to Si Zong to make them ready to join the battle at any time."

'In this battle, let Si Zong go up? '

'decide as things go!Until the last moment, I don't want to expose the existence of Si Zong.Even if the cooperation of the four verticals is needed at that time, I hope that the full strength will not be exposed as much as possible. Now is not the time for the four verticals to attack in an all-round way! '

As the chief of staff of the Northeast Field Army, Ye Jianying naturally knew that He Zhengdao also had extremely special preparations for the four verticals.If the existence of Si Zong is exposed at this time, it will undoubtedly bring a lot of trouble to Si Zong.

It's just that for He Zhengdao, facing the menacing Kwantung Army at this moment, he must be fully prepared psychologically.In order to ensure the smoothness of this defensive operation, he also had to reserve more backup players.

After giving this order, He Zhengdao asked again: "Saber Special Forces, should they arrive in Hulun by this time?"

'Yes!Zhu Fei sent a telegram earlier that the action team has successfully joined them and is currently resting! '

When He Zhengdao was in Yan'an, he made a series of deployments for this defensive operation.All the special warfare units that had been reserved in the rear earlier were also called out by him this time, and all of them were sent to the Hulun area.

In order to open fire on multiple sides, but also to create more trouble for the Kwantung Army.He Zhengdao decided to throw out the general saber and carry out sabotage and beheading operations behind enemy lines in the Northeast to create as much chaos as possible.

The most dangerous and daring decision was to send an action team to sneak into the Kwantung Army headquarters and behead the senior officials of the Kwantung Army headquarters.Let the people living there also know that the Eighth Route Army is in action.

Even in He Zhengdao's plan, the senior officials of the puppet Manchukuo government and the puppet emperor were also in his assassination plan.He wants to use this method to make the high-ranking Japanese and puppet officials living in the Northeast truly feel that their lives may be threatened at any time!
