- Yang Zhen looked at the different expressions on the faces of the two old commanders after hearing his words, but he did not stop talking and said: "As for our army in Guan, before our army captured the Suiyuan and Chabei areas, It is entirely possible to hold back the Japanese divisions in North China and prevent them from successfully completing their assembly and transfer. "
"After last year's Hundred Regiment War, although the Japanese army greatly strengthened its troops along the railway, added a large number of fortifications on various traffic arteries, and mobilized many armored trains specifically for railway patrols, our army The equipment has also been greatly improved. With its own artillery, the number of artillery shells is relatively sufficient, and the ability to attack difficult situations has been substantially improved. "
"Furthermore, in last year's Hundred Regiment War, our army also mastered abundant capabilities to attack railways and highways, and except for the Jizhong Plain area, most of the remaining areas are mountainous. Under such circumstances, "There is no problem in taking advantage of our army's mountainous terrain to launch attacks on railway lines and delay the Japanese army's build-up. We also use the advantage of the mountainous terrain to delay the deployment of reinforcements by the Japanese army."
"Although the troops in various base areas in North China suffered a lot of casualties in the Hundred Regiments War last year, and most of the main forces have been incorporated into the advancing army, most of the remaining troops are newly upgraded local armed forces, but the current equipment is better than last year's Hundred Regiments War. At the same time, there has been a big improvement. Although the combat effectiveness has declined somewhat, I feel that with the improvement of equipment, the decline will not be too much. "
"Furthermore, through this launch of the raiding campaign, we can also train new troops. How can an untested army mature as quickly as possible? Through this newly launched campaign, we can train the new troops. These new troops will receive real training and testing, allowing them to mature as quickly as possible.¡±
After talking about the areas that required the cooperation of the troops within the customs after the campaign was launched, Yang Zhen looked at the two veterans and said: "Besides, before we launch the attack, we will also adopt a series of means to conceal our army's true combat intentions. Our army is in northern Manchuria. As the troops moved south to Jehol, it was not difficult for the Japanese army to guess our army¡¯s general strategic intentions.¡±
"But whether our next step is to attack the Beining line eastward or attack Fengtian via Chaoyang, or go south to Zhangjiakou and approach the Pingjin area, we can make a fuss about it. The Japanese army can figure out the general strategic intention of our army, but generally, it is not The representatives are real. As long as we don¡¯t let them figure out our true strategic intentions, there are still a lot of things that can be done in the middle.¡±
"Launching a campaign requires the concentration of a large number of infantry, tanks, heavy artillery, and thousands of trucks for supply. It is indeed difficult to completely conceal the whereabouts. Moreover, the entire Western Manchuria campaign has been launched for such a long time, and the Japanese army has invested so much force in our army. "
"But it's difficult, but it doesn't mean it's impossible. The terrain in Rehe is complicated, and Mongolians and Han people live together. But the biggest advantage is that it is connected in all directions. To the east, we can go straight to the hinterland of Fengtian, and to the northeast, we can attack the Japanese troops on the front line of Xinjing at any time. On the flank, we can attack the Pingjin area to the south and capture Chahar to the west.¡±
"In such a place of four wars, as long as we do a good job and prevent the Japanese army from figuring out our true strategic intentions, we can still do it. As long as we conceal our true combat intentions well, we can prevent the Japanese from figuring out our true strategic intentions." As long as the strategic initiative is in our hands, it will be much easier. "
Regarding Yang Zhen's ideas, the commander pondered for a while and then said: "According to your intention, we are going to fight another hundred-regiment war in Shanxi and Hebei provinces. Your plan is not just to dispatch a few regiments of troops. It can be accomplished only by mobilizing all the troops remaining in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei and Taihang bases to cope with this situation. "
"But have you ever considered that in the two major base areas behind enemy lines of Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei and Taihang, except for the troops of the Taiyue Military Region and the Central Hebei Military Region, which are still relatively intact, and the old backbones are still maintained, most of the rest are just composed of The local armed forces have been upgraded, and their equipment and combat effectiveness are very different. Even the backbone troops who stayed and persisted were mostly in the Hundred Regiment War last year and have not yet recovered due to excessive casualties. "
"In order to complete the central government's opening of the land line of communication with the Anti-Japanese Alliance, each base area, just after the Hundred Regiment War, mobilized most of the main forces to go north and gather into the northwest Shanxi base area for re-equipment and training. After each unit was in the Hundred Regiment In order to restore combat effectiveness as soon as possible due to heavy losses during the war, we even adopted the method of merging two regiments into one regiment and replenishing them with troops from other armies."
"There are not many old troops left behind in the base areas. Although their equipment is now complete, in fact most of them are incomplete. They were either lost in the Hundred Regiment War or replenished the troops leaving the customs. These troops left behind are actuallyIn fact, they are mainly composed of new soldiers and local armed forces who have just added to the main force. Except for the two military regions of Jizhong and Taiyue, the combat effectiveness of the rest of the troops is now quite limited. "
"Furthermore, since last year's Hundred Regiment War, in order to stabilize its occupied areas and completely eliminate our anti-Japanese base areas behind enemy lines, the Japanese North China Front has concentrated a large number of Japanese and puppet troops on many occasions from last winter to the present in our Jizhong, Taihang, and Beiyue areas. The intensity, strength, and density of the sweeping sweeps were quite unprecedented."
"On average, there are one or two raids at the wing level every month, and once every month and a half at the brigade level. From the end of last year to the first half of this year, in just half a year, the entire North China Front organized Extraordinary large-scale raids have been carried out three times, and with the cooperation of the puppet troops, raids at the brigade level have been carried out almost every week.¡±
"In order to consume our army's strength, stifle our army's development and prevent ordinary people from supporting our army during the great sweeps, the Japanese army adopted a three-pronged policy of burning them all, killing them all, and robbing them all. After the main force was transferred away, only those who persisted were left behind. In order to defend the base area, our troops fought many fierce battles with the Japanese and puppet troops. Although they caused considerable losses to the Japanese and puppet troops, our troops also suffered heavy losses."
"On May Day this year, the newly appointed commander of the North China Front of the Japanese Army, Okamura Neiji, gathered the main forces of the 110th Division and the 41st Division, most of the 27th Division, and the 36th Division, and the 33rd Division The first division, four independent mixed brigades, and most of the puppet security forces, totaling more than 70,000 puppet troops in central Hebei."
"With the cooperation of the aviation force, nearly a thousand tanks and vehicles were dispatched, adopting multi-channel dense network-style and comb-style tactics to encircle our Jizhong Military Region, Taihang Military Region, and the Beiyue area of ??the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region on all sides. The focus of this major sweep is our two major military regions, the Jizhong Military Region and the Taihang Military Region.¡±
¡°The Japanese and puppet troops not only invested more than 50,000 troops in the Jizhong Military Region at one time and carried out repeated sweeps in our Jizhong base area, but also arrested a large number of civilians in order to restrict the activities of our army. A large number of blockade ditches, gun towers, etc. were built on the Jizhong Plain.¡±
¡°In just two months, all the county seats and larger market towns in our Central Hebei base area were lost. In the two months of fierce fighting, our troops in the Central Hebei Military Region suffered heavy casualties, with more than 18,000 casualties. Five cadres at the military division level have died, and more than ten regiment-level commanders have died. There are now only more than 20,000 troops in the army, and the base area has been reduced by two-thirds.¡±
"150,000 houses were burned down in the region, more than 20,000 basic people were killed, and tens of thousands more were arrested and are still missing. More than 58 million kilograms of food was robbed and burned. The entire Jizhong Military Region has been With their vitality injured, the main force has been unable to gain a foothold in the Jizhong Plain and had to withdraw to Beiyue and Taihang Mountains for training last week.¡±
"At the same time as the Japanese North China Front was operating, the Japanese First Army stationed in Shanxi, after the battle at Zhongtiao Mountain, the day after our advancing army came out of Beiyue Mountain, concentrated the main force of the 36th Division and independently The 3rd, 4th, and 9th mixed brigades, as well as the four infantry brigades of the 35th Division transferred from Henan, totaled more than 30,000 people."
"With the cooperation of the Shanxi Puppet East Asia Imperial Association Army, the East Asia Suppression of Communist Army, the Fifth Route Army of the Imperial Association Army, and more than 10,000 other miscellaneous puppet troops, the tactics used by the North China Front Army in the central Hebei region were adopted to counter the activities in our In the southeastern Shanxi region, the Taihang and Taiyue military regions launched a large-scale sweep."
"Furthermore, the goal of this sweep by the Japanese and puppet troops is very clear, which is to completely eliminate our troops operating in the Taihang Mountains and the headquarters of the 18th Army. The Japanese army not only dispatched a large number of troops in this sweep, but also attacked A large number of plainclothes armed forces were dispatched to the base area, either disguised as ordinary people or as members of our army, specifically to capture our army's command organs."
"During the counter-mopping up, the headquarters of our 18th Army was repeatedly encircled by the Japanese and puppet troops. During the breakout process, headquarters personnel suffered heavy losses. The Secretary-General of the 18th Army Headquarters was captured and his whereabouts are still unknown. The Logistics Department The political commissar and director of the Political Department of the Ministry of Military Industry were all killed.¡±
"Now the area of ??our various base areas has been greatly reduced, and the local government and cadres have suffered huge losses. Frequent fighting has prevented our remaining units from receiving much-needed rest and recuperation, and the lost soldiers cannot be replaced. At present, each unit is rarely at full strength, and its combat effectiveness has declined. It was quite powerful, and a lot of troops were scattered by the Japanese army. "
"Judging from the situation reported by the troops left behind in the pass, as of last Sunday, the large-scale raids by the puppet troops in our Jizhong, Taihang, and Taiyue districts were still continuing. Our troops left behind suffered heavy casualties in the bitter battle with the enemy. In addition to In addition to the troops in the Central Hebei Military Region who are no longer able to hold on, the casualties in our Taiyue Military Region with lighter casualties have now reached nearly one-fifth.¡±
"Compared to the Jizhong area that was almost completely lost, although the Taihang and Beiyue areas are better, the base areas have also been severely damaged.A large amount of food, clothing, and material reserves were destroyed, a large number of basic people were massacred, the local government suffered heavy losses, and a large number of local cadres were sacrificed or arrested. During the frequent raids by the Japanese and puppet troops last winter, even A considerable part of the troops could not even raise winter clothes. "
"Just the day before yesterday, the Japanese army gathered one part of the 27th Division, the main force of the 15th Mixed Brigade, two brigades of the Puppet Manchu Army and two groups of the Puppet Security Army to launch a large-scale attack on our base areas in East Hebei and Pingxi. The Jidong Military Region has lost contact with us, and the situation there is still unclear. "
"Now all the troops in the pass, especially the troops of the Central Hebei Military Region, which is the key target of the Japanese army, have reached an area where they are unable to launch large-scale operations without a long period of replenishment. Except for a few troops of our Central Hebei Military Region, we have stayed to cooperate with local forces. Except for the persistence of the troops and militia, the main force has withdrawn.¡±
"The Taihang and Taiyue Military Regions are still conducting anti-mopping operations, and the Jidong Military Region has now lost contact with us. The specific situation is still unknown. Under such circumstances, let the troops complete such a large-scale raid. , The task of containment will probably be quite difficult.¡± - Didn't finish reading?
