Bright Sword: Rebirth of Kong Jie

“So before that, we still have to cause chaos in North China and the Taihang region. The bigger the noise, the better.

Attract all the attention of the Japanese and make our independent field detachment famous.

Then, we will use this as a cover to open up a troop transport channel to the Suimeng area, and gradually transfer our mechanized combat forces to the Suimeng area."

The suggestions made by Ding Wei, who has an extraordinary strategic vision, naturally coincide with Kong Jie's ideas.

The Suimeng area is a battlefield that must be fought for.

Judging from the situation on the entire Sino-Japanese battlefield.

The Japanese army firmly controlled the puppet state of Manchukuo. At the same time, adjacent to the southern part of the puppet state of Manchukuo were Beijing, Tianjin, northern Hebei and other places, which were also places where the Japanese army had strong control.

The Eighth Route Army wanted to break through the Japanese army's layers of defense from the front and advance northward into Kanto.

It would be difficult to go this route.

It can even be said that it is basically impossible to do so with the Eighth Route Army's existing foundation.

If the strategic layout was planned to advance northward to Guandong from the Suimeng area, it would be completely different.

The Suimeng area is vast, and the Japanese army did not deploy many troops. There was only one Japanese garrison stationed in Mongolia in the northern part of the country.

Its military strength was not large, with only about 30,000 troops at its peak. Relying on a cavalry group, it generally controlled the situation in the Suimeng area.

However, the Suimeng area was not dominated by the Japanese troops stationed in Mongolia.

There was also the 35th Route Army of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, which was confronting the Japanese army in Suixi and Hetao areas.

The Suimeng area borders Rehe and Chahar.

Among them, Rehe was one of the four eastern provinces of the puppet Manchukuo.

After the Eighth Route Army gained a firm foothold in the Suimeng area, it could further send troops to the nearby Chahar and Rehe areas, gradually opening up a gap in the southwestern region of Guandong.

The Japanese army deployed few troops in this direction, and the defense line was relatively weak.

And most importantly.

Standing on the shoulders of giants, Kong Jie knew very well that with the outbreak of the Pacific War and the Southeast Asian War, the Japanese army withdrew a large number of elite troops from the Kanto region, resulting in a significant decline in the strength of the Kwantung Army.

It will only take one or two years for the situation in the entire Kanto region to undergo a dramatic change.

The originally powerful Kwantung Army would become weak inside and even vulnerable.

Before that, if the Eighth Route Army could make arrangements in advance, advance into the Suimeng area and gain a firm foothold.

After the Japanese Kwantung Army weakened, we could take the opportunity to launch an attack on the Chahar and Rehe regions. By then, we would be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

of course.

The premise of all this is that Kong Jie can build enough mechanized combat forces. After the final battle breaks out, he can use the advantages of mechanized combat to completely destroy the Japanese's eastern Mongolian defense line, as well as the Chahar and Rehe area defense lines, and then advance to the Guandong region.

And all this is just as Ding Wei said.

We must also focus on North China and the Taihang region and gradually expand our layout.

"beat!"

"We have to completely inflict pain and frighten the Japanese around Taihang, and make our independent field detachment famous before we can proceed to the next stage of deployment!"

Kong Jie, Ding Wei, Li Yunlong and other three old comrades quickly reached a consensus.

The following days went according to the plan of the three.

The independent field detachment was secretly actively developing the military industry, especially the production of modified armored vehicles gradually created by Kong Jie.

On the one hand, they actively launched an outward offensive and took the initiative to attack the surrounding areas occupied by the Japanese.

Let the Japanese know that there is an independent field detachment of the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang area.

Growing rapidly!
