    Liu Changshun was startled when he heard the extremely familiar cold voice coming from behind him. He quickly turned around and saw Yang Zhen, who had arrived at an unknown time, standing behind him and looking at him coldly. He was startled.  Liu Changshun, who was greatly shocked, quickly stumbled and explained: "Commander, I didn't mean that. [.Com text] How dare I criticize the head of the headquarters behind his back."

    After explaining with some guilt, Liu Changshun suddenly reacted and became extremely happy.  He ran to Yang Zhen and said with a smile: "Commander, your body has recovered? It's really great. You have worried us all these days."

    Seeing Liu Changshun's dog-legged appearance, Wang Xiaoming, Ma Chunsheng, and Chai Shirong all shook their heads.  Why is this guy turning his face faster than turning the pages of a book?  Just now he put on a look of righteous indignation, but this will become even worse than the Japanese Akita dog adopted by the commander.

    Yang Zhen pushed aside Liu Changshun, who was carefully following him with a smile, walked to the map and said: "Liu Changshun, I'm not in the mood, and I don't have the time to do such boring things with you. You have this time to flatter yourself, why don't you  Please make a report on your current situation. Don¡¯t ramble on, I want to give a brief and concise report.¡±

    Hearing that Yang Zhen wanted to listen to the report, Liu Changshun hurriedly walked to the map, pointed at the map and said: "Our brigade is now withdrawing to the general stone line in accordance with the order of the chief of staff. However, the Japanese army is not following up very quickly. Currently, it has only reached Junde.  The front line. Now our brigade has suffered heavy casualties after several days of fierce fighting."

    "Thirds of the casualties of the fourth regiment, one-third of the casualties of the fifth regiment, and nearly half of the casualties of the sixth regiment. Even if we add in the reinforcements of an additional battalion sent by the chief of staff, there are only more than one regiment of available troops left.  . Before the additional troops were in place, the Second Brigade had almost lost its combat effectiveness.¡±

    "Our current strength of the Japanese army is roughly around four infantry brigades, two artillery brigades, plus some cavalry, engineers and heavy transport troops. The total strength is about 5,000. Among them, there are 3,000 combat soldiers. After these few days of fighting,  Although the casualties of our army were not small, the casualties of the Japanese army were not that light either.¡±

    "Although our brigade crippled two regiments in the previous battle, the casualties of the Japanese army were at least about 60% of our army. Commander, the combat effectiveness of this second division is indeed strong, and it is not comparable to the Japanese army we have seen before.  Even the 40th Regiment of the Japanese Army, which was said to be the most tenacious we encountered in the previous stage of the battle, could not compare with its tactical level and determination to fear no death. "

    "After their offensive was defeated, they stood in front of us and refused to retreat. Without fortifications, they used the corpses of the war dead to build mobile fortifications to shoot at us. Moreover, their infantry and artillery coordination capabilities were excellent, and their artillery dared to attack both the enemy and us.  The enemy fired artillery fire from a distance of less than ten meters. When the Japanese army launched the charge, the dust from their artillery fire was extremely accurate, and they often did not even need to correct their trajectory."

    Regarding Liu Changshun's answer, Yang Zhen nodded with satisfaction and said: "Facing the main force of the Second Division, it is considered good that you can reach this point. This Second Division is the first batch of qualifications established by the Japanese army.  The oldest division. It performed well both during the Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War."

    "Just after the July 7th Incident broke out in the Guanci Civil War, the 16th Regiment deployed by the Second Division once defeated a reorganized division of the Communist Party of China. When retreating from the Battle of Xuzhou, it was this 16th Regiment that dared to  The combat effectiveness and ferocious style of a mere regiment launched against an army can be seen."

    "In addition, the Japanese army has an absolute superiority in ground and air firepower, and they have been fighting on a flat plain. With the casualties of your two regiments, it is already very rare to be able to defeat its two brigades. This time, Wang Guangyu fought against twenty  There is no comparison with the blocking battle of the Fourth Division."

    "Last time, the 24th Division was not familiar with our army's combat style and was almost completely defenseless. That's why Wang Guangyu adopted the tactic of moving and setting up ambushes. Moreover, the 24th Division adopted the tactics of gradually increasing troops at that time. Wang Guangyu  The pressure on Guangyu is not as great as yours this time. The most important thing is that the combat effectiveness of the 24th Division is much worse than that of the Second Division."

    "Because the Twenty-Fourth Division was just formed, the three regiments were all mobilized together later. The internal cooperation and collaborative combat capabilities are far inferior to that of the Second Division. Its division headquarters was defeated by our army.  After that, we lost cooperation with each other and could only fight on our own, which gave us the opportunity to annihilate them one by one. "

    Having said this, Yang Zhen looked at Liu Changshun and the other four and said, "I know that your Second Brigade has suffered heavy losses and is in urgent need of additional troops. But I can only replenish one regiment for you now. As for other additional troops, we can only wait for this battle."  After it¡¯s over, we¡¯ll decide based on the situation.¡±

    Hearing that Yang Zhen could only replenish the strength of one regiment, Liu Changshun immediately said anxiously: "Commander, can you have more troops? Look, our brigade is the main force."??, this is going to be a counterattack soon, you have to finish it anyway.  We are not greedy, we just make up the difference.  "

    Liu Changshun complained, Yang Zhen shook his head and said: "The landlord's family has no surplus food. Although our current base area is not small, the population is not large. The strength of the ten independent regiments recruited in the previous stage has already reduced the entire  The potential of the soldiers in the base area has been exhausted.¡±

    "If there are more, it will affect the normal production in the base area. Without labor, who will farm the land? The arsenal also needs a large number of workers. Although the number of puppet Manchukuo soldiers captured in the battle was quite large, now they are all  Replenish troops. The first brigade was reduced to nothing in the previous battle, and just replenishing them consumed the strength of two independent regiments. "

    "As well as replenishing your and Du Kaishan's troops and replenishing the losses in the previous period, it also consumed the few supplementary troops we had on hand. Therefore, the headquarters also lacks supplementary troops this time. We must fight out,  Otherwise, if we are trapped here, the Japanese army will not need to attack, but we will be trapped to death. "

    After saying that, Yang Zhen said with emotion: "Although our base area is not too small now, after several internal battles, we have suffered extremely hard. After the two wars, our most important food has always been the main battlefield.  The area north of the Songhua River in Tangyuan has almost become a wasteland. This year¡¯s grain harvest can be said to be almost complete.¡±

    "Several counties with a combined population of only more than 200,000 people have to support an army of 40,000 to 50,000 people including local troops. The people are already overwhelmed. However, in less than half a year, soldiers, food, etc.  The material potential has been exhausted. If we can¡¯t get out before winter, it will be difficult for us to survive this winter.¡±

    Yang Zhen took a look and knew that it was almost impossible to know more, but Liu Changshun said with a frown: "Okay, don't pretend anymore. I still know what's in your kid's belly. When necessary,  I will decide accordingly. I won¡¯t be able to treat you badly at that time.¡±

    Having said this, Yang Zhen pointed to the map and said to the commanders of the Second Brigade in front of him: "Now I will announce the headquarters order.  The headquarters is determined to concentrate the forces of two brigades, three independent regiments and most of the main artillery force to attack the main force of the second division of General Shixian first.  For the rest of the Japanese army, surveillance and defense were the main tasks.  "

    "Eat all the Second Division. We are already tired of the veterans and we don't have such a good appetite. We don't have the ability now. Therefore, the headquarters is determined to adopt the tactic of knocking the mountain to shake the tiger, and concentrate the absolute superior force to destroy the Second Division in the middle first.  The main force. As long as this main force of the Second Division is destroyed, the other Japanese armies will retreat without a fight."

    "Now the third brigade that was originally on the front line of Haoliang River is rushing here on a starry night. The first brigade and three independent regiments have already attacked from Qunce Mountain, bypassing the main force of the Japanese Second Division. Your troops have arrived at the third brigade.  After that, the general's Shi first line position was immediately handed over to Du Kaishan and moved westward. "

    Hearing that Yang Zhen transferred himself away from the main battlefield, Liu Changshun was stunned and said: "To the west? Where to go? Commander, didn't you say that we should first attack the main force of the Japanese Second Division in front of us? This is not the right way to fight a tough battle.  Is this the strength of our brigade? Why are we transferred now?

    "Xiangxi, do you want us to block the Japanese roundabout detachment? Aren't they just on the flank of Wang Guangyu? Why send us there?" Liu Changshun was not stupid. As soon as Yang Zhen said that he would send his Second Brigade to move westward, he responded immediately  Come here, what does Yang Zhen mean?

    Seeing Liu Changshun's reluctance, Yang Zhen smiled slightly and said: "The Japanese Second Division has a strong fighting capacity. Although the number of enemies we face is not large, there are only five brigades, but if we want to eat them in one go,  We must concentrate our forces as much as possible.¡±

    "The Second Brigade suffered a lot of casualties in the previous battle, and it is difficult to replenish troops now. We can only withdraw you first and use Du Kaishan to replace you. Under the current situation where our troops have been used to the extreme, the headquarters cannot let you go.  You guys come down and rest.¡±

    "The Japanese roundabout troops can only add up to three infantry brigades, and their firepower distribution cannot be compared with the frontal enemy. If you block them, your pressure will be much less. It is very suitable for the current situation of your troops. Now we can no longer bear Wang Guangyu's presence  General Shixian was so consumed."

    Although Yang Zhen's words had been very thorough, Liu Changshun was still unwilling to give up and said to Yang Zhen: "Commander, our second brigade is the main force. Compared with the first brigade, we are better at offensive battles. That battle was not  Our second brigade is responsible for the main attack? If you withdraw us at this time and transfer us to the western front, wouldn't that weaken the attack?"

    "You have to know that our Second Brigade has mainly fought tough battles since its formation. Our offensive capability is the strongest among the three main brigades. Do you think we can block the Japanese roundabout?"The task of the team is still given to the first brigade, which is better at fighting that kind of positional warfare.  Besides, you have been chewing bones for so long, so you should give us some meat, right?  "

    Looking at Liu Changshun's shameless look, Yang Zhen smiled bitterly, but said firmly: "No, the plan has been decided and will not be changed. You will hand it over to Du Kaishan immediately, you two  The brigade must move westward as quickly as possible and spread across the entire upper reaches of the Nada River.¡±

    "I told Liu Changshun, don't joke with me here. We are attacking the main force of the Second Division. After learning that the main force of the division was besieged by our army, its outflanking troops must do their best to rescue. The battles in these days  Come on, you already have an idea of ??the combat effectiveness of the second division. Why don't you and I waste so much time?"

    "Let me tell you, even if your second brigade is defeated by me, you must firmly block the Japanese roundabout troops from Nanshan to Wudaogang. Your second brigade must be like nails, stuck to the ground  The Japanese detachment will take a detour route to our flank to ensure that the main force of the Japanese Second Division can complete the encirclement and annihilation of the Junde line. If you can't hold it back, be careful with your head."

    Hearing that Yang Zhen's tone did not sound like a joke, Liu Changshun did not dare to argue.  He nodded quickly and said: "Commander, please rest assured. Even if the Second Brigade is exhausted, we will still block the Japanese roundabout detachment from Nanshan to Wudaogang to ensure that the flanks of the main force are not threatened by any threat."

    Although Yang Zhen was dissatisfied with Liu Changshun's assurance, it also made him somewhat relieved.  This guy is sometimes ink-spotted and always too cautious.  It is precisely for this reason that Yang Zhen did not hesitate to waste time and transfer the second brigade to block the attack.  If Du Kaishan goes to the mountains, this guy might get into an offensive battle with the Japanese outflanking troops.

    It¡¯s not that Yang Zhen is afraid of the Japanese outflanking detachment, but at present, the troops that have been through the battle have suffered serious losses, and it is very difficult to replenish their troops.  I can no longer bear the heavy losses.  Unlike the Japanese army, the Japanese army can receive continuous support from the rear. No matter how great the losses are, the troops and equipment can be replenished in a short time.

    And it can almost be said that in the sparsely populated northern Manchuria, fighting alone, not only did one piece of equipment get damaged, but one piece was missing.  Even after a big war, it is very difficult to replenish soldiers.  The total population is only over 200,000, and the qualified supplementary soldiers do not even account for one-fifth.

    The ten independent regiments and two supplementary regiments he formed before the war have almost exhausted the potential of qualified soldiers in the base area.  If we continue to dig deeper, we will not only affect the public sentiment, but also shake our own foundation.  This is not the Guan Nei base area with a large population and high consciousness of the people, but a sparsely populated and bitter cold place in Northern Manchuria.

    It is not just a matter of whether the people are willing to serve as soldiers, but the limited population base alone is far from being able to support a large-scale army.  Now whether we can fight out and use the enemy-occupied areas as our base to replenish our troops and supplies, or even expand the base area, has become a matter of life and death for our troops.  The key to solving this problem lies in the current second division.
