    Regarding the brigade commander and political commissar's disbelief, Lin Zhiqiang shook his head, opened the map and said: "Brigadier commander, political commissar, my feeling is not groundless worry, nor is it fabricated out of thin air, but based on the location of our brigade and the location of our army.  Judging from the overall situation we are currently facing, our brigade is the vanguard of the entire army. "

    "The current position of our brigade is also the northernmost one deployed in the entire army in addition to the cavalry detachment that goes north to meet the anti-alliance roundabout detachment. This means that our brigade guarantees the security of the entire northern flank of the entire army and also contains  This is the only way for the Japanese troops in Chifeng to reinforce and raid the western front.¡±

    "At the cadre meeting of the entire army, I once said that the whereabouts of the Japanese and puppet troops against the joint roundabout forces are not necessarily clear now. With the help of reconnaissance planes, coupled with our previous defeats in the battle, we have already known  It is not difficult for them to find out the true intentions of this roundabout detachment. "

    Having said this, Lin Zhiqiang clicked on the location of the troops on the map, and then continued: "Our army is currently located from Fengning and Luanping in the south to the northern part of Weichang County in the north. This long and narrow area is basically  The all-mountainous land is not a major food-producing area. The Chabei Banners to the west have always been the nomadic areas of the Mongols and basically do not produce food. To the north are the nomadic areas of the Mongolian banners, which are also very nomadic.  Food production area.¡±

    "Under this situation, if we cannot develop towards the main grain producing area in Dongrehe, the Japanese and puppet troops do not even need to take an offensive. They only need to block the passage along the Great Wall and the anti-resistance alliance connecting us in the north. Even if they are trapped, we will be trapped.  Trapped to death in the mountains of Rexi."

    "This is also the main reason why I suggest that the main force adopts tactics of dispersed actions combined with unified deployment to penetrate into the Redong region. In addition to clearing out the enemy and puppet forces in the countryside, it is also necessary to annihilate one part of the enemy through mobile warfare, and  Solve the food dilemma we are facing now.¡±

    "Without food, our army can only starve to death in the mountains and grasslands of Rexi. Moreover, our current food shortage situation should have been grasped by the puppet army through the last battle. If I am not wrong,  Now the Japanese and puppet troops along the Great Wall have taken action to block the roads along the Great Wall that allow our army to mobilize food from its old base in North China."

    "No matter which strategic group the Japanese army is in, they are not isolated. The deployment of each strategic group complements each other. The cooperation between the North China Front Army and the Kwantung Army is quite close. For the North China Front Army, deploying a small number of troops to blockade the Great Wall is  It¡¯s just a piece of cake for them.¡±

    "In fact, even if the Japanese army does not blockade the Great Wall, our army's strength and food production in the eastern Hebei region alone will not be able to meet the food needs of our tens of thousands of troops. But for the always meticulous Japanese army, they will never give up.  This is a rare opportunity to annihilate the elite of our army in the North China Front within the territory of Jehol in one fell swoop, and solve the serious problem of establishing a stable rule in North China. Therefore, the North China Front Army and the Kwantung Army are destined to join forces and implement a tight blockade against our army.  "

    "The retreat is cut off. If our army fails to open up the situation in Rezhong and Redong areas, then the Japanese and puppet troops will hardly have to do anything on their own. We will starve ourselves. If my prediction is correct, now both internal and external forces will  The front line of the Great Wall has been blocked by the enemy, so cutting off our direct connection with the Anti-Japanese Alliance has become the only thing they have not done besides strengthening the walls and clearing the fields in their occupied areas. "

    "Now that the roundabout detachment of the Anti-Japanese Alliance is heading south, as long as they are not fools, they will know their true purpose if they close their eyes. In order to trap our army, destroying this roundabout detachment has become an inevitable action for them. The reason  Quite simply, if they only block the southern line and not the northern line, they will not be able to form a complete blockade against us. "

    "Our brigade is currently located between the Shuangchazi River, the Ruyi River, and the Daqinghuo River in the northwest of the paddock. Although it is located in a mountainous area, the Japanese and puppet troops in Chifeng must pass through us if they want to attack this roundabout detachment.  Once the Japanese and puppet troops make up their mind to intercept the Anti-Union detachment, our brigade will bear the brunt.¡±

    "Brigade commander and political commissar, don't forget that Paddock and Chifeng are very close. If the Japanese army advances westward from Chifeng, we will bear the brunt and completely complete the blockade of us and trap us in the Rexi Mountains. They will definitely  We will not give up cutting off our direct contact with the Anti-Japanese Alliance, especially now that the Anti-Japanese Alliance has entered Hung Yen West Province.¡±

    "I have strengthened mountain combat training these days just to prepare. Brigadier, if we collapse, this route will be really unsafe. At the same time, our entire northern line will also be in danger of collapse, so  , we must be prepared to stick to this front line, maybe in the next few days, a fierce battle will be waiting for us. "

    "The reason why IAs the entire army has begun to advance eastward, we are not taking action for the time being. In addition to using a short period of time to improve our army's tactical literacy as much as possible, we also want to preemptively wait for the Japanese army to take action before taking action. If the Japanese army in Chifeng  If the puppet army really ignores the surrounding our army and sweeps westward, then if we are stuck here, we will become a guarantee for the lifeline of our army's connection with the Anti-Japanese Alliance.  "

    "At the same time, while the main force of our army has not moved, a group of small teams have been selected to infiltrate into the areas around Chifeng. In addition to raising a batch of food for our army, they also want to closely monitor the movements of the Japanese and puppet troops in Chifeng.  The imitation will happen again like last time, the Japanese and puppet troops have attacked right under our noses, and we still don¡¯t know anything about it.¡±

    "But our strength is still unrecovered and we lack heavy equipment. Although we currently occupy a favorable geographical position, the Japanese and puppet troops who have been entrenched here for a long time can only be more familiar with this generation of terrain than us. In other words, the initiative on the battlefield,  It is not necessarily in our hands. Now we hope that the neighboring troops can contain the Japanese and puppet troops in other directions as much as possible. The rest is up to us. "

    After Lin Zhiqiang finished speaking his judgment, the brigade commander and political commissar next to him looked at each other and fell silent. The two of them also knew that if the current situation turned out to be as Lin Zhiqiang judged, their own troops, who were very close to the Japanese army in Chifeng, would seriously  Bearing the brunt, if your own troops fail again, the entire army will be shaken.

    Not only can the Japanese army use this gap to go south and outflank the entire advancing army, but they will also cut off the straight-line connection between the advancing army and the anti-alliance forces in the first time. The consequences will be extremely serious. By then, the eastward advancing army will  The retreat of more than a dozen regiments will be completely cut off.

    Thinking of this, the brigade commander who was looking at the map raised his head and said to Lin Zhiqiang: "Old Lin, just do what you want. The whole army should seize the time to improve their tactical literacy and at the same time, seize the time to prepare for battle. Last communication.  We can no longer suffer from poor communication. Even if it is useless, we must first set up field telephone lines before dismantling them during the transfer. "

    "Old Lin, you are an expert in this area, so you should worry more about it. The construction of the overall fortifications, the erection of the field telephone network, and the location selection of the artillery positions are still yours. The political commissar and I will do this for you.  Back up, if someone doesn't obey orders, let him talk to us directly."

    "We would rather have more trouble now than have the same example as last time. We are not qualified to seize the strategic initiative, but we must firmly grasp the tactical initiative. If the Japanese and puppet troops in Chifeng are like you  As he said, even if we fight to the death, we will never take a step back."

    The headquarters of the advancing army already had certain estimates that the Japanese army would cut off the lines along the Great Wall separately and cut off the connection between the advancing army and the anti-Japanese coalition roundabout troops after they entered Xing'anxi Province.  After two battles, the tactical intention of the advancing army was undoubtedly exposed.

    Judging from the reaction speed of the Japanese army and the actual command ability of its generals, it is not clear what the best choice they should make when the main force of the Kwantung Army is temporarily unable to move westward. And the current situation, for them, what they should do is  What is the best option available.

    In fact, for the advancing army that can only operate in Rexi now, almost all strategic areas in the entire Jehol territory are controlled by the Japanese and puppet troops, especially the two key points of Chengde and Chifeng are in the hands of the Japanese and puppet troops.  However, the actual situation is not very favorable for the advancing army.

    As long as the Japanese army occupies Chengde, they can control the front line of the Great Wall and cooperate with the Japanese and puppet troops inside the pass to easily cut off the connection between the advancing army and the pass. However, if the Japanese and puppet troops entrenched in Chifeng move westward,  Once the paddock and the Keshiketeng Banner are seized, the possible channels for the entire advancing army to contact the Anti-Japanese Alliance will be completely cut off.

    Between Chifeng and Chengde, the two strategic locations where the Japanese and puppet troops controlled Jehol, there were roads and railways connecting each other. It was extremely convenient for the Japanese and puppet troops to mobilize their troops and equipment. On the southern front, they had the cooperation of the North China Front Army.  Next, the Japanese and puppet troops in Jehol will definitely focus their main energy on the northern line.

    The paddock is located in the northwest region of Rehe. Although the land is barren and the people are poor, and the terrain is mainly mountainous, it is currently in a key position. It is connected to the Keshiketeng Banner to the northwest and the strategic location controlled by the Japanese army in Rehe to the east.  Chifeng is connected to the Duolun Mountains and Rivers in Chabei to the west, and faces Chengde across Longhua to the south.

    If the Japanese army wants to cut off the direct connection between the advancing army and the anti-resistance alliance that has entered Xing'an Province in Puppet Manchuria, Weichang is in a very critical position in the next operation. Once the advancing army gains a firm foothold in Rehe,  If we gain direct contact with the Anti-Japanese Alliance, Chifeng, a strategic location in Rebei, may become unstable.

    Wanting to hold Chifeng and cut off the connection between the Anti-Japanese Alliance and the advancing army, PaddockIt is a strategic location that the Japanese army must compete for, and the vanguard brigade currently stationed in the paddock is in such a critical position. If they advance eastward later, the main force of the advancing army will not be less than one and a half regiments.

    However, if the Japanese and puppet troops take advantage of the situation and cannot hold the mountains north of the paddock, then the entire northern line of the advancing army will be shaken. And with the southern line already blocked and the paddock lost, then the northern line will soon  All lifelines established will also be cut off.
