And Liu Yang only passed a new year. On the afternoon of the first day of the new year, Liu Yang led the spy battalion to set off. After a few days of rest, the spy battalion started a new year's battle.
Following Liu Yang's actions, the entire Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas moved, and were attacked one after another. The Japanese army had to start sending more reinforcements, but their strength was limited. The Japanese army could only dispatch troops from southern Zhejiang to rush there, hoping to catch up. There are more than 6,000 people in two alliances, and it is not easy for anyone to attack.
As the new year passed, in the entire land of China, from the Jinsui area in the north, both the red side and the Jinsui army began to attack the declining Japanese army. It was also on the third day of the first lunar month that the Jinsui army recovered Luliang, the new year is off to a good start.
Not only in Shanxi, but also on the front line of Henan and Anhui, the national army also launched a large-scale counterattack, which completely contained the North China Front Army and the Central China Front Army.
In Hunan and Hubei, the national army also began to counterattack. On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, General Xue defeated Changde and made a good start for the national army's counterattack. The Japanese army inevitably declined.
The whole of China started a counterattack battle, and at this time the Japanese army had lost its vigor. Since last year, the Japanese army has lost the initiative in the Pacific Ocean. Many transport ships have been sunk by American ships, resulting in an extreme shortage of supplies. In a few areas, the Japanese army can only be equipped with 30 rounds of ammunition.
One ebbs and another, after the national army received the full support of the United States, it can be said that its combat effectiveness has greatly increased, the gap between the two sides has been evened out, and the balance of war has begun to shift.
This was the reason why Liu Yang launched a counterattack. Neither Shouichi Terauchi nor Heisuke Yanagawa had the energy to entangle Liu Yang, because they were facing more than three million soldiers of the national army, and they completely suppressed them in terms of strength.
The Japanese army only had nearly a million troops on the Western Front, and deployed more than 400,000 troops to consolidate the rear. But facing half of China, these 400,000 troops could not defend even large cities, not to mention small counties. It is hoped that the puppet army can relieve some pressure, but with the shortage of supplies, the puppet army has begun to collapse, and without the puppet army, the Japanese army is completely unable to defend.
In Jizhong or northern Shandong, the Japanese army even had two squads, with only thirty individuals defending a county town. Many of the original puppet troops sneaked away. The army is simply unreliable.
Under such circumstances, the helplessness of the Japanese army can be imagined. It is barely supported on the western front. How could it be possible to return to Jiangsu and Zhejiang? 300,000 to 400,000 troops must be dispatched, otherwise there is nothing they can do about the geographically superior spy battalion.
However, with so many troops deployed, the battle line that has been struggling to maintain will collapse immediately. Let alone the encirclement and suppression of the spy battalion, the entire front line will be completely retreated. The Japanese army can't afford it. Many small counties, and then focus on defending some big cities, such as Hangzhou, Nanjing, Shanghai, etc.¡ª¡ª
In order to contain the spy battalion, the Japanese army concentrated the forces of many counties in Shandong and Zhejiang, and began to gather in Nanjing, Shanghai and Hangzhou. In order to deal with the next attack of the spy battalion, as long as these places are defended, there is still room for maneuver. Even Jiaxing gave up for this.
When Liu Yang arrived, Tongxiang fell into the hands of the 105th Division without firing a single shot. The experienced and prudent Master Wang just sent people to garrison Tongxiang on the one hand, and led his troops to approach Yuhang on the other hand. The 19th Brigade went straight to Jiaxing, and cooperated with the 9th Battalion to prepare to take Jiaxing.
Besides, Liu Yang led the Secret Service Battalion and the 105th Division to Sun Shiqiao, and received a report from Tang Xuezhi, saying that the Japanese troops in Jiaxing had also withdrawn, and there were only a few puppet troops in Jiaxing. When they passed, the puppet troops surrendered directly.
"Notify Tang Xuezhi to rush to Menghu immediately, and let Xiaojiu try to go east, tell him not to force it, hit him if he can, wait if he can't, and¡ª" Liu Yang pondered, already having some ideas in his heart. Thinking about it, he pondered for a while: "Notify Yan Biao to lead the security forces to go to Kunshan immediately. If there is any situation, you must not fight privately. You must notify me."
After the voice fell, he pondered again, vaguely Liu Yang had already guessed something, the little devil probably started to shrink his troops, otherwise it would not be so easy.
"Yingzuo, do you suspect that the little devils are starting to abandon some places and then concentrate their forces to defend key points?" Master Wang immediately saw through Liu Yang's thoughts.
With a hmm, Liu Yang rubbed his chin and narrowed his eyes: "It's probably like this. The little devils are short of troops, and coupled with the shortage of supplies, their combat effectiveness has dropped by at least 50% compared to before. If we continue to defend these small counties, then can only be dispersed,A single brigade or two brigades, in the face of our powerful artillery fire, will simply die, and it will not even hold us back¡ª¡±
Commander Wang also agrees with this point. If it was the Japanese army in the past, the combat effectiveness of a brigade would be comparable to that of the current regiment. One would ebb and flow, and if Liu Yang came, then the air force would follow. With the Secret Service inside, there may be some insiders, and then there will always be a bridge to open the city gate, and the Japanese army is hard to defend.
In the past, when fighting a street battle, if the battle loss rate was 1:1, or even 1:2, that would be a big deal. It is definitely the elite of the national army. Just like when Liu Yang launched the largest hand-to-hand combat, the battle loss rate At one to one point four five, it has already shocked the whole country, and it can be called a fierce tiger of the national army.
But now the encounter between the secret service battalion and the Japanese army is just like the Japanese army encountered a motley army in the past. Of course it is better, but the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army is worrying.
In fact, it is not just that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army has declined. This is an indisputable fact, but it is more due to several years of training. Taking the 105th Division as an example, the combat effectiveness is several times stronger than before. The current situation has come about. As for the secret service battalion, apart from the elites, the weapons of the secret service battalion are far beyond what the Japanese army can match.
In addition to the sniper gods, the spy battalion now has modified heavy machine guns, submachine guns with hundreds of bullets, and modified twenty-shot guns, all of which have increased range and power. In addition, there are nearly a hundred mortars. As for the enhanced There are more than 200 grenade grenades and nearly a hundred self-propelled vehicles, which can be turned into self-propelled bulletproof vehicles at any time to form temporary positions at any time.
With the current weapons and equipment of the secret service battalion, except for the lack of heavy artillery, it is comparable to an ordinary army-level combat unit in the national army, and also comparable to the equipment of the Japanese brigade. , it is not difficult to imagine, after all, the secret service battalion has fought bloody battles with little devils for six or seven years. After fighting for such a long time, even a fool has become an elite, which is by no means comparable to that of any Japanese army.
From the fact that the Special Forces took Deqing, it can be seen that there is Liu Yang in the Secret Service Battalion, who is not only strong in weapons and equipment, but also better at planning. It is the most terrifying of the Japanese army.
What made the Japanese army hard to defend was that the secret service battalion used Japanese pushers and actually developed many Japanese soldiers as inner ghosts. This is what the Japanese army was most worried about.
"If it were me, I would also shrink the line of defense. If we can gather a division in Yuhang, even if there are more than 10,000 people, it will be very difficult for us to take down the big city, and the Japanese army will also have a large number of puppet troops. Withdrew over¡ª" Master Wang lit a cigarette and analyzed the situation in front of him.
The combat power of the puppet army is not strong, but if it is in a specific position, it can still explode with good combat effectiveness, especially in positional warfare. As long as the Japanese army supervises the formation, these puppet troops will not dare to rebel easily and can delay Troops living in the secret service battalion.
This is also what Liu Yang is worried about. The difference between a regiment and 10,000 people is that 10,000 people can defend without dead ends, allowing soldiers to take turns to repair, and can play several times the role.
Since ancient times, there has been a saying that the besieger has four times as many troops as the defenders, that is, whoever attacks the city can only attack if he has four times as many soldiers as the defenders. Often the ratio of damage between the siege and the defender is one to four. As for now, it is possible A machine gun can kill countless people, the more troops the better to deploy.
"I'm afraid this battle is not easy to fight¡ª" Liu Yang also lit a cigarette, and his voice was a little low while he was puffing.
"Let me just focus on a little breakthrough, as long as they enter the city and start street fighting, the little devils will suffer instead¡ª" Master Wang curled his lips and snorted softly.
The so-called concentrated breakthrough means to concentrate tanks and armored vehicles, coupled with a large number of artillery fire, to break open a point, let the troops rush into the city, and then occupy the city and start street fighting with the little devils. There are enough tanks and armored vehicles as support. Absolutely has the upper hand in street fighting.
However, if this is done, all troops will be selected for bloody battles, and no one can determine the losses. Victory may come, but it is very likely that the losses will be too large, thus losing the next combat effectiveness.
"How do I want to fight the next battle, I don't just see Yuhang¡ª" Hey, Liu Yang disapproved of too much loss.
Turning his mind, Liu Yang let out a sigh of relief, turned his head and said to Nie Datou: "Notify the brothers in Yuhang's secret service bureau, don't activate it for the time being, and follow orders. I think you are thinking too much, little devil. There is no problem in the tactics of shrinking troops. But the little devils overestimated their supplies, hum¡ª"
Liu Yang snorted coldly, and already had an idea, raised his eyebrows: "Notify the air force to bomb Yuhang according to the target, and I want to consume the little devil's supplies. Anyway, I am not in a hurry for this battle."
Master Wang froze for a moment, and couldn't help laughing. It was the first time he saw Liu Yang being so stable. Could it be that this was a change? God knows what Liu Yang experienced in Myanmar, but in this case, he was indeed stable enough. .
