    Having said this, Yang Zhen paused and said: "Lao Guo, all the First Army has moved south. The commander-in-chief of the First Army and I have promised that as long as there is one person from the First Army, the Japanese army on the eastern front will not receive a truckload of supplies.  Although we don¡¯t expect the First Army to achieve this goal.¡±

    "But if the First Army can partially paralyze the railway line leading to the front line from the Japanese army and cut off some of the supplies of the front-line Japanese army, especially the replenishment of gasoline and artillery shells, it will be quite beneficial to our next operations."

    "Judging from the current deployment of troops and equipment by the Japanese army, they have already gone out in force. Once the Eighth Division is in danger, no matter how brave Umezu Yoshijiro and Namada Shigeichi are, they will not fail to rescue them. If the Eleventh Division  If they all come out in full force, the Hu Forest and Rao River behind them will now be completely empty."

    "Lao Guo, since our initiative to attack has already been a gamble, then why don't we bet bigger and involve all the troops in the entire Northeast Manchurian area of ??the Japanese army. Now that the entire Eighth Division is dispatched, it will indeed give  We created partial passivity, but isn¡¯t that what we want?¡±

    ¡°We will wear them down step by step in the field battle, weaken their strength, and draw them out of the 11th Division.

    It is much better than us biting the bullet and attacking one hill after another.  "

    Guo Bingxun over there heard that Yang Zhen had agreed to Tao Jingfei's shrinking deployment. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he was shocked by Yang Zhen's plan. Who is Guo Bingxun? It cannot be said that he is a roundworm in Yang Zhen's stomach.  , but after working with Yang Zhen for such a long time, he can basically guess 10% of Yang Zhen's inner thoughts from the beginning.

    When Guo Bingxun found the location on the map where Yang Zhen suggested that Tao Jingfei shrink the defense line, he immediately understood that Yang Zhen planned to have Tao Jingfei fight with the 8th Division and try to use the mountains in that area to weaken the 8th Division and its affiliated units.  Vigorous.

    When Yang Zhen was halfway through what he said, Guo Bingxun also completely understood what he was thinking. He was planning to free up his hands on the Du Kaishan side and use them to attack directly from the current place to the southeast and cut off the eighth  The division's connection with the 29th Division, and at the same time cooperating with the troops attacking on the northern front, defeated the Japanese troops on the eastern front.

    As for the reserve force at the back commanded by Liu Changshun, I am afraid that it is the main assault force in his plan. Not to mention the Japanese army, few people in these reserves know that if they catch the Japanese army, they will attack him.  Misjudgment of troops and equipment. Using a powerful force to launch an assault from Raohe directly into Hulin might have greatly surprised the Japanese army.

    This tactical concept has great potential, but the overall war situation is still barely maintaining the initiative. It is a bit premature to talk about these things. The first ten regiments formed by the Production and Construction Corps have not yet taken action.  The ten regiments formed in the second batch are still intensifying their training and are still some way away from being able to participate in the war.

    Even though the formation has been completed now, from Fujin to Raohe and then to Hulin, not only are there mountainous and forested areas, but the small amount of plains are also large swamps. Let the armored brigade advance from this route, according to  Judging from the current training situation of the armored brigade, this may not be possible.

    After hesitating for a while, Guo Bingxun decided to pour cold water on Yang Zhen truthfully: "Commander, let Tao Jingfei shrink his defensive position. I agree with this. If necessary, we can abandon Baoqing County and shrink all our forces to Baoqing.  Mountain West.¡±

    "But at the moment, Commander, it is still too early to consider a full-scale counterattack. From the overall battle situation, Wang Guangyu is the focus on the western front, and Du Kaishan is the top priority on the eastern front. The Japanese troops on these two routes only need to  Until all the issues are resolved, we can¡¯t even begin to fight back.¡±

    "Commander, before the current war situation is completely clear, I suggest that the second-phase troops organized by the Production and Construction Corps should temporarily go south to the junction of Baoqing and Fujin to wait. Now for us, how to ensure sufficient front-line troops?  That's the key."

    "It is better to cut off one of his fingers than to injure ten of them. Concentrate superior forces and annihilate the enemy's effective strength. This is what you repeatedly emphasized in the military region cadre training class. Why have you forgotten now? When the enemy on the Western Front is still resisting,  We spread our troops around to attack, which goes against military common sense."

    "Commander, I can't bite off more than I can chew. I understand your thoughts, but we must base ourselves on our current situation and overall situation. Even if you want to cook a pot of uncooked rice, you have to set up the stove first, right?  We have to have enough firewood. Unless we interrupt the counterattack against the 14th Division, we won't be able to gather enough troops at all."

    ¡°From Raohe to Hulin to outflank the retreat of the Japanese 11th Division, thisThe planning is very good, but have you considered the terrain there? This road is located at the junction of Wanda Mountain and the Wusuli River. There are swamps and mountains and forests everywhere. There are only a few roads, and they are all under long-range Japanese artillery fire.  Under the control of the enemy, such terrain is simply impossible for armored forces to assault.  "

    "Furthermore, even if the 11th Division completes its insertion in Dukai Mountain and all moves westward to solve the 8th Division's dilemma, there is still a newly formed Japanese border garrison stationed in Hulin with thousands of troops. If the northern front  The attacking troops cannot seize Hulin County on time. When the 11th Division reacts and the 8th Division turns from defense to offense, it will retreat with all its strength. It will probably be a disaster for the northern troops who are waiting for us to become the lone force.  "The armored brigade is our only armored force."

    "Commander, my intention is to first deal with the Sixth Division on the western front, the eastward advancing troops of the Sixth Division on the central line, and the Tenth Division on the eastern front. The rest will wait until these three parts are completed and we will see how the situation develops.  And the Japanese army is making plans after adjusting its troop deployment according to the war situation."

    Regarding Guo Bingxun's suggestion, Yang Zhen said: "Old Guo, as the saying goes, take one step and see three steps. Although the entire battle situation is not yet completely clear, although the strength of the front line is somewhat insufficient, the increase of ten regiments is enough. One of our  The regiment is three thousand strong, almost the same as a Japanese regiment."

    "Although there is still a certain gap between the quality of individual soldiers and the quality of grass-roots commanders, the firepower configuration at the regiment level is overall better than that of the Japanese army. As long as we form superior forces locally, we are still certain to defeat the Japanese army. At present, the tenth  Although the divisions in Baoqing and Boli have not been completely wiped out, the overall situation has been decided. "

    "Although it will take some time for Wang Guangyu on the Western Front, after Yi Liangpin returns to his position in a roundabout way, the enemies in southern Yilan are already in a situation of being attacked from both sides. Our army has an absolute advantage in strength and firepower, and has seized all the opportunities. This  If the two directions can be solved, the entire Japanese front will be divided into two parts by our army. "

    "Lao Guo, I think it's time for us to consider a step-by-step combat plan. Think about it, if the Eighth Division learns that the part of the Tenth Division left on the Baoqing front line is annihilated or defeated by our army.  , what choice will be made, whether to retract to the front line of Mishan, Muling, and Hulin to form a defensive overall with the 11th Division and the 29th Division, or to continue westward relying on the 11th Division behind them.  Enter."

    "As for whether the armored brigade can launch an attack from Raohe, Lao Guo, the Germans launched the French Campaign in early May. In order to avoid the front of the French Maginot Line, they used an armored corps to attack from the mountainous Ardennes.  They detoured through the area and successfully broke through the French defense line. Why can't we Chinese do what the Germans can do? "

    "Although the line from Raohe to Hulin is crisscrossed by mountains, rivers, and large swamps, in the eyes of ordinary people, it would be difficult for even an ordinary infantry group to achieve a large-scale breakthrough here, let alone a large number of armored troops.  This is what the French say about the Ardennes.¡±

    "Of course you have studied in France and have some understanding of the terrain of the Ardennes region. Although the Ardennes region is mountainous, the average altitude of the terrain is only more than 200 meters. The complexity of the terrain is incomparable with this area, but Lao Guo has  One thing you may have forgotten is that although the terrain here is more complicated than the Ardennes, the traffic conditions are also better than there.¡±

    "The Hutou Fortress located in Hulin is one of the most important fortresses of the Japanese army in the Northeast, and it is also the main gathering area for its war against the Soviet Union. In order to ensure the mobilization of soldiers, the supply of materials and the transportation of heavy equipment in this fortress, the Japanese army built  A large number of so-called national defense roads and railways crisscrossed the country from east to west and from north to south. Although these roads facilitated the Japanese army, they undoubtedly provided favorable conditions for our army to implement large-scale armored forces. "

    "Although there are many rivers in Raohe and Hulin, except for the Muling River, many rivers currently do not have a large amount of water, and tanks can completely cross it. However, although the Wanda Mountain in Raohe is not  It¡¯s short, but the mountains are relatively gentle. I chose this place precisely because of its terrain.¡±

    "We believe that the terrain here is not suitable for armored assault operations. I am afraid that the Japanese army, which has more conservative tactics, will think that this area is not a favorable place for large corps operations. Otherwise, they would mobilize heavy troops and penetrate into Fujin from Hulin to attack  We're in far more trouble than we are now."

    "Surprise and attack are unprepared. This is also an important reason why I chose this area that the Japanese army believed was not suitable for large corps operations to launch the second phase. Swamps, rivers and mountains are, for the armored brigade that has completed complex terrain training,  , it is not insurmountable. If we can occupy Hulin, we will encircle the Japanese Eighth Division and the Eleventh Division at once. "

    As for military strength,?Prepare to adjust the entire battle situation after Wang Guangyu completes the encirclement and annihilation of the Japanese army in the southern area of ????Yilan, turning the offensive on Wang Xiaoming's side into a defensive, leaving only one brigade plus an independent fifth brigade composed of three divisional troops to suppress the third division.  The 14th Division and the rest of the troops, including the First Column, were all transferred eastward, "

    ¡°In this way, our army will concentrate nine brigades, ten reserve infantry regiments, and one armored brigade on the eastern front. The total strength will reach 70% of our army¡¯s total strength, 120,000 people, plus most of the troops.  With the artillery and all the armored forces, our army has an absolute advantage over the Japanese army in terms of strength and firepower in addition to air superiority on the Eastern Front. "

    "I still say what I said, the battlefield is a gamble. Since we started this gamble first, then we might as well bet bigger, seize the weaknesses of the Japanese army, and we will turn them upside down."
