    Yang Zhen also agreed with Guo Bingxun's analysis of the enemy's situation. Judging from the current deployment of the Japanese army, Guo Bingxun's accuracy in judging the next action of the Japanese army should be at least 60% after considering the results and experience of last autumn's operations.  , if nothing unexpected happens, after the Japanese military operation is launched, it should be carried out in accordance with Guo Bingxun's judgment.

    The reason is simple. Judging from the casualties of the Japanese army after the battle last autumn, Yang Zhen believed that even if he was given eight more courages, Umezu Yoshijiro would not dare to adopt the previous approach of attacking more with less and investing troops one by one.  Guo Bingxun judged that the Japanese army's action, although it seemed that the troops were divided into four groups, was the safest plan for Umezu Yoshijiro.

    On the surface, these four Japanese armies appear to be scattered, but in fact they are in line with the practice of the Japanese army often dividing their forces to attack in large group operations, trying to determine victory or defeat in one fell swoop. The four Japanese armies appear to be dispersed, but in fact they are a unit.  , they cooperate closely with each other. No matter which route you attack first, there will be at least two routes of Japanese troops that can quickly reinforce.

    For the Kwantung Army, as long as this plan succeeds, it can wipe out all of them in one fell swoop. If it fails, unless it concentrates a force several times higher than that of the Japanese army, it will simply not be able to swallow up any Japanese army at such a close distance.  What they are facing are the veteran standing divisions of the Japanese army equipped with a large number of tanks, heavy artillery, and extremely powerful assault power. It is impossible for him to surround the point and call for reinforcements.

    Among the four Japanese armies, the Tenth Division seems to be the weakest, but it is located between the Fifth Division and the Sixth Division. If I attack it first, I am afraid that I will be surrounded from the east and west in a short time.  Trap, and behind him and on the sides, there is the Japanese 11th Division ready to respond at any time.

    Yang Zhen even had a feeling that the Tenth Division, which seemed to be the weakest in the Japanese army, might be a bait deliberately left for him by Umezu Yoshijiro, and it was the kind of bait that he knew was full of poison, but he still couldn't.  You can only bite the bait and eat it.

    After clicking his finger on the position of the 10th Division on the map, Yang Zhen said: "Lao Guo, how do we deal with the current situation? I want to hear your thoughts first."

    Guo Bingxun nodded when he heard this and said: "Commander, my idea is to assign part of the main force to local troops to block the 14th and 5th Divisions on the east and west routes, and use the terrain to attack the Japanese 6th Division on the west route.  Block the attack at all levels and weaken its assault power to the greatest extent.¡±

    "The Japanese army on this road is equipped with a large number of tanks and heavy artillery. I think they should mainly advance step by step and will not easily adopt flanking tactics. From the north of Yilan to Jiamusi, most of them are in the plains along the river.  , which is suitable for the Japanese army to take advantage of its armor and artillery fire.¡±

    "Our army used the mountains in other directions to snipe other Japanese troops in the surrounding areas, inducing the Sixth Division to form a lone intrusion. With Jiamusi as the final bottom line, we adopted defensive counterattack tactics and used the main force to hoard Jiangbei. Once the sixth division was attacked,  When the Sixth Division fell into Jiamusi, a force of our army attacked its flank, cut off the connection with the Fourteenth Division, and detoured its retreat to complete the encirclement. "

    "At the same time, abandon Baoqing County and use the western mountains of Baoqing as a natural position to block the main force of the 10th Division. Commander, the Japanese army in the west seems to have more troops, but as long as the 14th Division crosses the Songhua River, it will not be able to compete with the 6th Division.  The division connection will be naturally divided by the southern foot of Xiaoxing'an Mountains. The 14th Division and the 6th Division appear to be a whole, but in fact they are naturally divided into two halves by the Songhua River. "

    "Although the terrain in the east is relatively flat and the Japanese troops are stronger in depth than in the west, there are mountains and rivers here and there are large swamps in the plains. In fact, the terrain is relatively favorable to our army. These natural swamps can be effectively used as  Blocking position to delay the offensive of the Japanese 10th Division on the Eastern Front. "

    "If the Sixth Division is really as we imagined, it will actually be very beneficial to us. From its current assembly point to Jiamusi, although the route is the Songhua River Plain, it is located in the Wanda Mountains and the remnants of Zhangguangcai Ridge.  Most of the area between it and the Songhua River is very narrow, which is very conducive for our army to concentrate its troops and firepower to fight a large-depth blocking battle. "

    "Our army has set its final bottom line in Jiamusi, using existing positions on the outside and street fighting to weaken it to the maximum extent, and then annihilated it in one fell swoop. The key to this battle is whether our army's east and west front lines can firmly block the 14th Division.  regiment and the fifth division to create fighter opportunities for the main force.

    Guo Bingxun's tactics are actually a replica of last year's autumn campaign, but the strength and equipment of both sides are far from comparable to last year. This time the Japanese army used a large number of tank assault tactics for the first time, and maximized the use of heavy artillery and  Aviation support, and on our side, the firepower and troop strength have also improved several levels compared to last year.

    Regarding Guo Bingxun¡¯s suggestion, Yang Zhen shook his head slightly and said: "Old Guo, your plan seems good, but?A question you have ever thought about is that this tactic of yours is basically a replica of what we did on the General Stone Frontline last year. Although it seems to be very suitable for us, have you ever thought about whether the Japanese army would have already taken precautions against this?  "

    "The key now is not whether the east and west routes can stop the Japanese 14th Division, but how your intervening troops will fight after the 6th Division enters Jiamusi. Although the Japanese army's strategic vision is narrower, its tactical capabilities are not  It is extremely strong. I feel that the gap between the Japanese 14th Division and the 6th Division will not be very wide this time. "

    "If they are entangled horizontally and form a line with each other, with our current strength, it will be difficult to assemble effective forces when we have to divide our forces to block the main force of the 14th, 5th, and 10th Divisions on the east and west lines.  If you completely separate them, once you are unable to isolate the Sixth Division, your tactics will probably be quite difficult to defeat."

    "Jiamusi is now our support point in Jiangnan. Once Jiamusi is lost, it will be difficult for us to defend the entire Jiangnan region. If Jiangnan cannot be defended, it will be difficult for Fujin and Tongjiang. These two places are now  The large tracts of farmland that have been reclaimed will be the main source of food for our army in the future. If we lose it, our entire army will be hungry. "

    "Lao Guo, your plan is based on the outstanding performance of the Japanese army. What I am most worried about now is that the four divisions of the Japanese army will no longer adopt the previous tactics of underestimating the enemy and advancing rashly. Instead, they will adopt the strategy of holding the four divisions together.  If the Japanese army does this, it will be very difficult for us to fight according to your plan. In view of previous lessons, the Japanese army is very likely to adopt this tactic.  "

    "Having learned from the past, the top brass of the Japanese army are very clear-minded. Even if the officers below want to underestimate the enemy and advance rashly, the top brass of the Japanese army will never agree. This battle is not only related to our life and death, but I am afraid that the heads of the Kwantung Army will not be relaxed either.  For them right now, there is no doubt that they can afford it.¡±

    Yang Zhen's words silenced Guo Bingxun. His plan for the campaign was indeed a bit too self-centered. Yang Zhen was right. After last year's battle, the Japanese army's behavior of underestimating the enemy and advancing rashly would probably not happen again. Once the Japanese army was grouped together,  , the first-line push, my own tactics can only become a fantasy.

    Seeing Guo Bingxun's silence, Yang Zhen knew that he was thinking about what he had just said. He pointed to the 10th Division and said: "Judging from the divisions of the front-line Japanese army, one regiment strengthens the 5th Division. Currently, there is only one  The 10th Division, which includes the regiment and three infantry brigades, is the weakest. "

    "But the 10th Division seems to be alone. In fact, there are at least one Japanese division on its right wing and rear. Once our army assumes a posture of swallowing this bait, there will be 10 troops from Mishan behind it.  The First Division and Muling's Eighth Division can rush to the rescue quickly, and even the Fifth Division in the west can quickly move eastward."

    "The Japanese army set out the 10th Division alone because they figured out our usual tactics and deliberately showed weakness to lure us into taking the bait. However, the Japanese army created an opportunity for us. Look, Lao Guo, if we set out  If we want to defeat this seemingly weakest enemy, then the entire Japanese Fifth Division on the Western Front will be pinned down."

    "So Lao Guo, my idea is to let them take advantage of the situation and launch a feint attack on the 10th Division with only one force, which will tear their entire western front deployment to pieces. If other Japanese troops move, we will  The entire Western Front will be alive. If it doesn¡¯t move, then I¡¯m sorry, but I will accept your gift.¡±

    "We centered on the first section of the Japanese 10th Division deployed in Baoqing to disrupt the deployment of the Japanese army on the western front. While launching attacks on the western front, our main force secretly moved eastward and reached the Yilan and Tonghe lines.  As soon as the Fifth Division on the Western Front moves, we will concentrate our main force and most of our firepower on the Sixth Division."

    "The main force of the Sixth Division is deployed in Yilan, and the terrain of Yilan is the most complex among all the counties we control. In addition to the main stream of the Songhua River, the southern mountainous area currently controlled by the Japanese army is completely different from the Songhua River.  The intersection of Dashan and Zhangguangcai Ridge.¡±

    "The narrow riverside plain corridor in the north and the Xiaoxing'anling area are under the control of our army. The terrain is complex and messy, and there are a small amount of intermountain plains between Wanda Mountain and Zhangguangcai Ridge in the south. This kind of terrain is difficult for  For us, it¡¯s a good entry point.¡±

    "My idea is that we can't be so passive all the time, fighting on the inside. After a battle, our base area will be severely weakened. Since sooner or later we have to attack the outside, then it is better to use offense instead of defense. Let's take this first  The 6th Division will attack. If the feint attack doesn't work, then use the 10th Division's main sacrificial sword."

    "Lao Guo, strike first to gain strength. The Japanese troops have been deployed in place, but they haven't yetI think they are still making final preparations to launch the attack. We have always been passive in receiving attacks. This time we take the initiative, we will definitely appear unexpectedly and unexpectedly by the Japanese army, which is what it means.  "

    "What is most beneficial to us is that once the Japanese troops on the Western Front are mobilized, the Japanese troops on the Eastern Front no longer have the strong reserve forces on the Western Front. For us, the room for activity will be greatly increased." said  At this point, Yang Zhen slammed his fist on the position of the Sixth Division deployed in the Boli and Yilan areas.

    Regarding Yang Zhen's idea of ??taking the initiative to attack, Guo Bingxun did not answer him immediately. Instead, he kept thinking about the comparison of the enemy's and ours' military strength and firepower. After quickly completing the homework on the map according to Yang Zhen's ideas, Guo Bingxun looked at the map.  In such a posture, Yang Zhen couldn't help but take a breath because of Yang Zhen's good appetite.

    After a long silence, Guo Bingxun threw the red and blue pencils in his hand on the map and smiled bitterly: "Commander, your idea is good, but have you ever thought about it, if you follow your idea and achieve your tactical goal, we  At least 60% of the troops and at least 80% of the firepower must be concentrated on the western front.¡±

    "And there must be at least enough troops on the western front to attract the main sight of the Japanese army. In other words, once this plan is launched, it is almost impossible for us to leave a reserve force on hand to concentrate so many troops. In doing so, we will have  There is no longer any mobility. Once the Japanese troops on the western front see through our strategic intentions and head north regardless, we will be passive across the board and may even be in danger of being encircled by the Japanese troops."
