    Having said this, Yang Zhen looked at the battlefield outside, pondered for a moment, then turned his head and said: "Remember, your posture must be strong enough to frighten the Japanese and puppet troops in Fengtian. When necessary,  They must not be allowed to send a single soldier to the west. As for the Japanese troops in Jilin, you don¡¯t have to worry about them for the time being. "

    "I know that you are currently operating without a rear, and there is no direct connection with the rear supply line. There may be some gaps in ammunition, especially the urgently needed artillery shells. Hasn't the headquarters already flown some ammunition to Linxi Airport?  We will resupply you with artillery shells and mountain artillery shells first.¡±

    "As for light weapons and ammunition, I will communicate with Zhang Zhenhua to increase the amount of air transportation. The ammunition on the advancing army's side should be able to sustain it for a while. In addition to food and medicine, the remaining tonnage will be given priority to air transportation of ammunition to you, at least to ensure that you  There is a base amount of artillery shells."

    Hearing Yang Zhen's order, Wang Guangyu thought for a while. He had not gnawed down half of Linxi's peripheral fortifications in three days, but now the headquarters demanded that the core of the Japanese 23rd Division be captured within three days.  In the position of Linxi County, according to the current turtle tactics of the 23rd Division, this is somewhat difficult.

    Looking at Wang Guangyu with a somewhat troubled expression, Yang Zhen shook his head. He was somewhat dissatisfied with Lin Xi's current situation. Indeed, Wang Guangyu's military strength did not have an absolute advantage compared to the Japanese army in front of him.  , but in terms of equipment, it is not comparable to the Japanese army.

    In particular, the number of various lightweight small-caliber direct-aiming artillery and rocket launchers is not comparable to that of the Japanese army, which only has grenadiers and infantry guns as artillery below battalion level. No matter how many bunkers the Japanese army builds, it is not without solutions.  After three days of fierce fighting, Yang Zhen was somewhat dissatisfied with the result.

    In fact, the problem with Wang Guangyu's fighting was like this. Yang Zhen had already seen it. In addition to the defensive posture adopted by the Japanese army, they adopted multiple directions to cooperate with each other, combined open and concealed forts, and anti-tank firepower far exceeded  In addition to the reason why Japanese divisions generally had a large number of new anti-tank weapons and were unable to take advantage of the armor of the roundabout troops, another point was that Wang Guangyu was a little too cautious in using troops.

    During the battle with the 23rd Division, he blindly pursued stability. He would rather attack hilltop after hilltop on the periphery than dare to take drastic measures. After opening the route to Linxi County, he left the periphery  Ignoring the Japanese and puppet troops on the ground, they concentrated their main force and attacked the county town.

    This kind of deployment is normal for Liu Changshun, who has always been relatively conservative, but it is a bit surprising when it appears on Wang Guangyu. When Yang Zhen chose the commander of this roundabout force, he also carefully considered it and chose the immediate choice.  Wang Guangyu is both steady and flexible on the battlefield.

    I just didn't expect that this kind of situation would happen to Wang Guangyu. Of course, Yang Zhen still knew the reason. He detoured his troops and fought without a rear. No matter what method was adopted, it would be gratifying to win, but if he lost, wait.  All they have is the annihilation of their entire army.

    Under this situation, Wang Guangyu adopted a gradual cannibalization tactic, trying to eat up as much of the 23rd Division's effective forces as possible, in order to prevent them from being bitten by the Japanese once they penetrated too deep before destroying too many Japanese troops.  After the battle, the 23rd Division probably left Wang Guangyu with the impression that it was too cunning. Facing such an opponent, it was more appropriate to adopt a steady and steady strategy as much as possible.

    In fact, if this tactic is adopted, the progress will be slower, but if the Mongolian garrison in Chahar does not intervene, it is understandable that he adopts this tactic, but now it is so slow, I am afraid it will not work.  Linxi is the core location of the entire defensive zone of the 23rd Division.

    As long as Linxicheng is captured, let alone the 23rd Division adopting tortoise tactics, even if they adopt other ostrich, tortoise, or hedgehog tactics, they will probably be in chaos. Only then will they have the opportunity to hit them hard and establish Xing'anxi Province in one fell swoop.  The battle situation, and as long as the 23rd Division withdraws from the battlefield, the entire battle situation will be alive.

    Facing two tank brigades of Chen Hanzhang and Wang Guangyu, two cavalry brigades, plus two reinforced divisions, nearly 400 tanks and armored vehicles, tens of thousands of cavalry, and a large number of attached artillery, no matter what conspiracy the Japanese army plays, I am afraid they will have to  Consider whether the entire Western Front will collapse, but the most important thing now is whether Wang Guangyu can seize Linxi County before the Japanese army takes action. In addition, it is the Japanese army's conspiracy, when exactly they plan to start taking action.

    Thinking of this, Yang Zhen turned his head and looked at the Linxi battlefield situation map corresponding to the situation map of the entire Northeast battlefield. After weighing it for a long time, Yang Zhen turned his head and said: "Old Wang, you must change your tactics now.  , if you continue to fight like this, let alone three days, even if you are given five more days, you may not be able to fightXia Linxi County.  "

    "In the next step of the battle, you give up the original plan of annihilating the Japanese army in the outer positions and divide the troops at hand into two. In addition to leaving one regiment with two cavalry battalions to watch the Japanese troops on the outer perimeter,  You gather the two regiments, as well as the main force of the armored brigade, and forcefully advance towards Linxi County with the Caojiatun, Four Stones, and the former Jilinba line that have been captured."

    "Give up the fight for the outer line of Moon Valley and San Lengzi Mountain, but Fulingou Nao, the commanding height of the entire southwestern Linxi County, must be taken. As long as this commanding height that overlooks the entire Linxi County is in hand, even if Moon Valley and San Lengzi Mountain are in hand,  You don¡¯t have to worry about what the Japanese troops in Lengzi Mountain will do.¡±

    Regarding Yang Zhen's deployment, Wang Guangyu somewhat disagreed and said: "On the 1st, the Japanese troops ignored the surrounding areas and concentrated the main force to attack Linxi County. Under the situation where our army has an absolute advantage, it is understandable to do so.  , it can also be said to be a quite clever tactic.¡±

    "But our military strength is now only a relative advantage, and this advantage only refers to our military's combat personnel. At the same time, this advantage is not obvious. If we add in non-combatants and auxiliary forces such as baggage troops, our military strength is still  Nearly one-fifth less than the Japanese army.¡±

    "This does not include the more than 3,000 Japanese residents in the city who can be armed to participate in the war at any time. There is also No. 1. Although the Japanese engineers and baggage soldiers generally do not participate in battles, their combat effectiveness is not inferior to that of the Japanese combat troops.  , the Japanese army often puts these auxiliary units into front-line battles when necessary. "

    "With the Japanese army's effective strength not being severely damaged, it is really too dangerous to leave only one regiment on the perimeter to monitor the rest of the Japanese army. You must know that the Japanese army can invest far more troops in the perimeter than ours.  This regiment simply controls the front line of Fulingou Nao, and it is difficult to prevent the Japanese counterattack. Especially the main force of the 23rd Division is not deployed in the southwest area of ????Linxi. The Japanese army has only one regiment in the southwest.  troops."

    "No. 1, when we do not have an advantage in military strength, once our attack on Linxi County is blocked and the Japanese troops on the periphery counterattack, we are likely to fail to attack and be surrounded by the Japanese army. In Linxi County, there are four Japanese troops  With the strength of the infantry brigade, plus the main force of engineers and baggage regiments who can be converted into combat troops at any time, plus artillery, armed expatriates and other personnel, Linxi County is a strong force. "

    "With just the strength of our two regiments, it is difficult to complete the encirclement of Linxi County. If we do not complete the encirclement of Linxi County, we will not be able to cut off the 23rd Division from mobilizing troops from the southeast of Linxi to reinforce Linxi County.  Route, then our previous situation can be easily replicated in Linxi County. Once we reach the periphery and the Japanese army ignores it and attacks the county with all its strength, this situation will be even more detrimental to us. "

    "With roughly equal forces, whether we can capture Linxi County in three days is a key issue. If Linxi County cannot be captured for a long time and there are not enough troops to control the periphery, we may be in danger.  "Jing Jing, No. 1, as a forward commander, I have to consider the follow-up response to the war."

    Regarding Wang Guangyu's objections, Yang Zhen was very cautious and did not get angry because the plan formulated by the headquarters was opposed. For him, it is necessary to be arbitrary in command. When he is commanding operations, he does not tolerate the influence of outsiders.  Interference, but he still has to listen to the suggestions of frontline commanders. For him, the reports of frontline commanders can more truly reflect the situation on the battlefield.

    After looking at the map and being silent for a long time, Yang Zhen turned to Wang Guangyu and said, "Then what are your thoughts? We don't have much time to waste. The Linxi battlefield is always in such a stalemate. It's definitely not going to work. Right now the whole situation is  The battle situation is an overall chess game. If one part is not progressing smoothly, it will affect the overall situation. How the battle situation is against the 23rd Division will directly affect the next deployment of the headquarters. "

    In response to Yang Zhen's rhetorical question, Wang Guangyu did not answer immediately. Instead, he walked to Lin Xi's map and pondered for a while, and then straightened out the ideas he had already had some ideas about before saying: "No. 1, this tactical adjustment of the headquarters.  It is not very conducive to our current situation. If the 23rd Division suffers heavy casualties, this will be a good move for us. "

    "But now the 23rd Division's manpower has not suffered much losses. Although its artillery has suffered certain losses, its overall strength is still there. If we abandon the perimeter and attack Linxi County, the Japanese troops on the perimeter will inevitably attack our army.  When carrying out counter-encirclement, it is still unknown whether our regiment's strength can withstand the Japanese counterattack from the outside. "

    "My idea is to use a strengthened regiment to be assigned two cavalry battalions, and a tank battalion to be assigned two wings according to the headquarters' deployment, and go straight to Linxi County to be assigned a cavalry battalion.A regiment of the barracks controls the first line of Yueyanggou, Erlenzi Mountain and Dayingzi.  "

    "The remaining regiment plus the main force of the tank brigade, as a mobile force, clamped down on the first part of Lin Dongzhi's 23rd Division with the strength of one regiment. If we say that our previous actions on the periphery have not yet touched the core of the Japanese army  The fortifications are not enough to attract the Japanese army to leave their permanent fortifications, so if we abandon the periphery and attack Linxi County, the core area of ??the Japanese army's entire defense, the Japanese army will not be able to think of it.
