Bright Sword Military System

Wang Xuexin waited for a day after the troops were in place.

The purpose of doing this is to allow the devils enough time to transfer troops, equipment and supplies to Tonghua.

On the other hand, the Baizhan Brigade took the battalion as a unit and divided it into four parts to attack from four routes... Needless to say, the purpose of this is to use the advantages of mechanized troops to outflank Tonghua, but in fact it is It is to fully mobilize the devil's troops.

Lieutenant General Akashi Kanji is in charge of commanding the Tonghua operation. He has just been promoted from major general to lieutenant general. As a new official, he hopes to perform well on the battlefield, so that he can not only gain the appreciation of his superiors but also gain prestige in the army. .

Therefore, his goal in this battle was not just to defend Tonghua as ordered by Meizu Meijiro, but to encircle and wipe out the Hundred Battles Brigade of the Eighth Route Army.

Under this combat goal, Akashi Kanji immediately ordered all the elites to go out and divide into four directions to chase and intercept the Hundred Battles Brigade.

Since it is not sure which of the four routes of the Eighth Route Army is the main force, Kanji Akashi sent at least two regiments or even one division in each direction of the Eighth Route Army. There are many, and there are three divisions in Tonghua who are strictly guarding against the tense construction of fortifications.

Then, Akashi Kanji watched with satisfaction as troops of the Eighth Route Army entered the pocket array he had set up.

However, when Akashi Kanji ordered to close the net in the early morning of the next day, the news he received was that the Eighth Route Army had withdrawn.

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General! There is no one in the Eighth Route Army barracks!"

"We saw the bonfire, it is likely that the scouts of the Eighth Route Army deliberately lured us!"

"The Eighth Route Army has escaped!"

……

Akashi Kanji was very satisfied with the result. He turned around and said to the staff: "Call the headquarters. After a night of fierce fighting, our army wiped out a large number of enemy troops. The Eighth Route Army fled in a hurry. Our army is launching a full-scale pursuit!"

"Yes!" The staff is not surprised by Akashi Kanji's order at all, and they can take the credit: the Eighth Route Army's retreat is true, and they can say anything else. As for the enemy's corpse...it's completely okay Take Chinese people as the number. After all, the Eighth Route Army is almost like that, and they often dress up as ordinary people.

Therefore, getting this credit can be said to be flawless and no one can find its flaws.

Umezu Yoshijiro felt a little strange when he heard that Akashi had successfully repelled the Eighth Route Army.

Is the Eighth Route Army so easy to fight?

They have an advantage in equipment, and now I hear that they can find out the positions of our soldiers in night battles... The defeated soldiers on the front line reported this to Umezu Yoshijiro's headquarters, which is why Akashi dared not easily choose to fight against the Eighth Route Army at night The main reason for the attack.

At this moment, the communications soldier reported to Umezu Yoshijiro: "Your Excellency, we have lost contact with Siping!"

"What?" Umezu Yoshijiro was startled: "How long ago?"

"Three hours ago!" The communications soldier reported tremblingly, "We thought it was a device failure, but..."

"Bastard!" Umezu Yoshijiro slapped him across the face.

At this time, he finally understood what was going on. The goal of the Eighth Route Army was always Siping.

Umezu Yoshijiro did not hesitate, and immediately issued several orders:

"Send additional reinforcements to Siping immediately!"

"Send a plane to reconnaissance!"

"Strengthen Xinjing's defense!"

However, these orders are just orders, they cannot be implemented accurately.

Reinforce Siping?

The reinforcements rushed to Tonghua from a long distance, and by this time the rocket fighters of the Eighth Route Army and the guerrillas had been dispatched to destroy the devil's railway.

It is a full [-] kilometers from Siping to Tonghua. If there is no train, it is not possible for an army to reach this distance in a day or two.

Send a plane to reconnaissance?

The "La 5" of the Eighth Route Army flew back and forth in the air, with air-to-air missiles shining under the wings, and the reconnaissance plane went up like courting death.

As for strengthening Xinjing's defense... the devil's troops have long been emptied by the front line, and Xinjing only has two wings left behind, so how can we strengthen the defense?

But the Siping battle was not easy.

This battle was commanded by Li Yunlong.

Still starting from the night battle, the independent battalion implemented a comprehensive information blockade on Siping and then opened a breakthrough. Li Yunlong commanded the troops to launch a surprise attack on Siping.

However, this battle was surprisingly easy to fight outside the city, but the city fell into anxiety.

Li Yunlong looked at the information sent from the front and compared it with the map, and his face darkened: "Damn it, ask that Zhang Dabiao, how does the intelligence work? I don't know where the enemy's main force is!"

It turned out that the devils were uncharacteristically guarding not outside the city but inside the city this time.

The head of the division, Major General Gao Muxinyi, felt the danger from the very beginning... The other troops were transferred one by one, and his 31st division was left in the direction of Siping.

The 31st Division was also a unit that survived the First World War in Fengtian. The advantage was that it made Takagi Shinichi very aware of the strength of the Eighth Route Army, and the second was to maintain a certain degree of contact and attention with the 20th Division.

Therefore, Takagi Shinichi also heard that the 20th Division was almost wiped out by the Eighth Route Army's night attack at the front desk a few days ago, and even the commander of the division died under random gunfire.

Takagi Shinichi analyzed: "If the 20th Division is broken by the Eighth Route Army, does that mean that our army's poison blockade tactics are useless?"

Although Shinichi Takagi didn't know what tactics the Eighth Route Army used, the result was certain.

Otherwise, the 20th Division would not have suffered such a miserable defeat.

If this result is confirmed, then...does it mean that the 31st Division can no longer rely on gas bombs and should think of other methods?

After thinking about it for a while, Takagi Shinichi decisively transferred the main force back to Siping City for defense, and deployed only a small amount of troops in the outer positions.

This made the night combat capabilities of the Independence Battalion almost useless...the Independence Battalion night vision goggles were mounted on half-tracks and tanks, which were better suited for fighting in the open than in cities.

But the main force of the devils is in the city.

Takagi Shinichi also made a more detailed deployment in the city:

The city of Siping is divided into two parts by a north-south railway, the eastern district and the western district.

Most of the eastern districts are small and dilapidated residences, while the western districts are mostly residential areas of devil "pioneering groups" and government agencies. The houses are strong and can be transformed into permanent fortifications.

Therefore, Takagi Shinichi drove all the Chinese people to the East District for unified management, and the West District used buildings to build various fortifications.

Therefore, the Eastern District is defended with the Chinese people as a barrier, and the Eighth Route Army must attack this side.

And the devils in the West District will not be attacked by the Chinese people. Once the Eighth Route Army enters the West District, it will be mired in street fighting and unable to take advantage of the advantages of mechanized troops.
