    Moreover, in order to strictly keep secrets, all the divisions transferred to the Western Front of the Kwantung Army chose to mobilize and advance at night. When the Japanese army was in action before, the puppet Manchu troops were generally deployed to serve as cannon fodder and coolies, or to arrest a large number of people.  China's labor force is different. In this operation, the Japanese army basically did not deploy any puppet troops to fight, and few Chinese were captured to use as labor force.

    Even if there are, they basically use the prisoners of war and laborers captured from the customs. After using them, they directly kill people and silence them. In many cases, they even directly convert the engineering and baggage teams into temporary laborers to transport military supplies and supplies.  Supplies, as for ammunition, each division only temporarily carries accompanying ammunition, and subsequent replenishment of ammunition will be carried out after the battle has fully begun.

    However, although the Kwantung Army tried its best and even adopted unscrupulous methods to cover up its troop mobilization, Yang Zhen still noticed with his keen sense of smell that on the battlefield, sometimes, whether intentionally or unintentionally,  Too much tranquility or abnormal behavior in some aspects is actually a mistake that exposes one's strategic intentions.

    It was the counterattack of the 23rd Division, which was already in a desperate situation, and the unusual calmness of the Japanese divisions deployed in southern Manchuria in the face of the deteriorating battle situation that made Yang Zhen keenly aware of the anomaly, and thus judged  A full-scale counterattack by the Kwantung Army is imminent.

    Although there is no precise information on the advance and deployment of the Japanese army, the entire battlefield is a chess game in his mind at this time. Yang Zhen, who is paying close attention to the changes in the strength of the Kwantung Army at all times, can put the Kwantung Army in the upcoming counterattack.  He still had a good idea of ??how many troops and heavy equipment he would need. He had a rough idea of ??which of these divisions could be placed on the Western Front and which one could be placed north of New Beijing.

    However, even though he had a rough idea and took certain countermeasures, the delay in detailed information on the Kwantung Army's mobilization made Yang Zhen very worried. On the battlefield in Western Manchuria, it was like two people were fighting, one  All the strength of the person has been exposed, but the other person has hidden a secret.

    Although the other person has been mentally prepared, the hidden strength of his opponent is always a big hidden danger before it is revealed. The most important thing is that although he already knows it in his heart, Yang Zhen does not  I'm sure my judgments are accurate.

    Because no one can 100% predict everything on the battlefield and make the most accurate judgments. Not to mention Yang Zhen, even the most brilliant commanders and those who will be called famous generals in later generations cannot make the most accurate judgments.  All things can be judged most accurately.

    Therefore, even if Yang Zhen has a certain judgment on the development of the situation in Ximan, he does not have much foundation in his heart. He can only prepare as much as possible and seize the last moment to collect intelligence. Except for Ximan  In addition to the situation on the battlefield that made Yang Zhen feel a little uncertain, the progress of Ma Chunsheng in the middle line was too fast, which also aroused his deep concern.

    It was obvious that Ma Chunsheng, who was currently fighting smoothly and had his own judgment on the battlefield situation, did not take it seriously even though he received repeated orders from Li Yanping and Guo Bingxun to slow down the attack speed.  He slowed down, but did not stop his attack.

    During the period when Yang Zhen was resting, the 32nd Regiment of his 11th Forward Division had even reached Xiaofangshen and Yangjia Fenfang in the Datun District established by the Kwantung Army in the north of Xinjing, and even  In the eight-fold telescope, his vanguard could already see the tall chimney in the factory area in the north of Xinjing City.

    The artillery shells of his vanguard can already hit the area around the Puppet Manchukuo Palace directly from the area outside Xinjing where they are currently. Not only can it be done, but this guy actually did it. His one-two-two rocket launcher battery follows the vanguard.  One of his rocket launchers, after reaching the front line of Xiaofang, fired a volley at the location of the Puppet Manchukuo Imperial Palace according to his order.

    A 122 rocket launcher battery, four forty-barreled rocket launchers mounted on American ten-wheel trucks, can cover an area of ??more than ten square kilometers with a single salvo fire. Although there is only one 122 self-propelled rocket launcher, the power of this salvo is  But it is also quite astonishing. The coverage area of ??a single firepower salvo is enough to cover the entire Puppet Manchukuo Imperial Palace covering an area of ??more than 200,000 square meters.

    With this volley, he not only razed to the ground the small palace built by the Japanese for the Kant Emperor, covering an area of ??more than 200,000 square meters, but also bombed the Puppet Manchukuo Imperial Guard guard station next to it.  When he went to heaven, Ma Chunsheng razed the puppet Manchukuo palace to the ground. Li Yanping was so angry that he cursed this guy for being a prodigal son.

    You must know that there are not only the Emperor Kant and his old and young children in the Puppet Manchukuo Palace, as well as the Japanese who are so-called serving but actually monitoring them, there are also countless Kant inside.The emperor brought precious cultural relics and a large number of treasures from the Forbidden City in Beijing. He fired them one by one. He felt relieved, but the treasures and cultural relics inside were also reduced to ashes.

    This move of Ma Chunsheng undoubtedly made Li Yanping very angry. In addition, this guy accepted the orders from the headquarters in name, but actually acted secretly and ignored the orders. The two factors combined made Li Yanping very angry.  He was dissatisfied, but considering the importance of the current war north of Xinjing, Li Yanping had been reluctant to suppress his anger.

    After Yang Zhen returned, Li Yanping considered that Yang Zhen urgently needed a break, so he temporarily suppressed the matter. After the break, he learned about Ma Chunsheng's approach, and Yang Zhen was not very satisfied because he had learned from Ma Chunsheng before.  progress smoothly, we can see the serious crisis lurking in it.

    Although Ma Chunsheng's assault speed was quite fast, Yang Zhen believed that the operation in the north of Xinjing was progressing too smoothly.  They did not put up much resistance, but relied on the advantages of the terrain to fight back and delay the anti-alliance actions.

    This situation shows that the Kwantung Army's actions north of Xinjing definitely have a plan. If the Kwantung Army had no idea, they would not give up the eastern platform of Xinjing, because they knew very well that if they gave up the eastern platform  , which means giving up the commanding heights around Xinjing.

    Doing so means that the Kwantung Army handed over the initiative of the entire Xinjing battlefield to itself and gave up control of the initiative on the Xinjing battlefield. Moreover, after giving up the platform in the east of Xinjing, if Ma Chunsheng continued to attack, the Kwantung Army would  This battle to defend Xinjing will be very difficult.

    As a commander, Yang Zhen knows very well that progressing too smoothly in a position where the enemy must fight for the position with all its strength will often contain considerable crises. Progressing too smoothly, especially if you haven't really eliminated many  Under the circumstances of the enemy's effective strength.

    Ma Chunsheng's progress after entering Dehui was too smooth and he did not really eliminate many Japanese troops. Not only did he drive most of the Kwantung Army's troops north of Xinjing into Xinjing, greatly increasing the Kwantung Army's garrison strength,  Moreover, it will gradually lengthen its own front line, and the longer its own front line is extended, the more opportunities it will give its opponents.

    Therefore, through the performance of the Kwantung Army on the battlefield in Xinjing, Yang Zhen judged that the Kwantung Army was inviting the emperor to enter the urn and trading space for time. Not only was it to gain time for operations in Western Manchuria, but the other attempt was to lure Ma Chunsheng's troops away gradually.  The cover from the rear and other directions forces made it stand alone.

    This approach of the Kwantung Army has been reflected on the battlefield. In the direction of Jilin, the Japanese army blew up the Fengman Reservoir that had not yet completed the final construction, creating a man-made flood in the face of the Anti-Alliance offensive, which made the attack speed in the Jilin direction  It could only be forced to stop, and it allowed Yang Zhen to prove the strategic purpose of the Kwantung Army in adopting various means on the battlefield north of Xinjing.

    Although Ma Chunsheng's headquarters north of Xinjing may not necessarily be the focus of his upcoming counterattack, this man-made flood undoubtedly made Ma Chunsheng's position appear too prominent. Without this flood, with the cooperation of Wang Xiaoming's attack on Jilin  Under this circumstance, Yang Zhen was not worried about Ma Chunsheng's current situation.

    The pincer offensive formed by the two units and their cooperation can minimize the dangers that Ma Chunsheng's unit may encounter. Unless the Kwantung Army has the ability to take action on both sides at the same time, no matter which way it is simply carried out  Counterattacks will receive support and cooperation from the other group. The total strength of the two groups combined is enough for the Kwantung Army to be extremely defensive when taking any action.

    However, the man-made flood by the Kwantung Army forced Wang Xiaoming's offensive on the Jilin front line to stop, leaving Ma Chunsheng with his left wing exposed and his right wing completely exposed. Once the Kwantung Army blew up the Songhua River embankment behind them,  If the operation succeeds, then Ma Chunsheng's troops will become a completely isolated army.

    Even if the Kwantung Army's next counterattack focus is not on them, but on Western Manchuria as they have judged, the subsequent development of the situation will be extremely unfavorable to them. Without Wang Xiaoming's support, the Kwantung Army can outflank Ma Chunsheng at any time.  The route of retreat put them into the dilemma of being unable to advance or retreat with a strong city in front and blockade and floods behind.

    The Kwantung Army divided its forces to outflank their retreat, which did not require too many troops. With the help of their artificially created floods, the strength of the two regiments was enough. This is why Yang Zhen targeted Ma Chunsheng's current location.  situation, which is why I feel very worried.

    Ma Chunsheng was not completely unaware of the fact that the Kwantung Army consciously moved itself further and further away from the rear, but he believed that his battlefield around Xinjing wasThe greater the momentum of the campaign, the closer it is to Xinjing, the core area where the Kwantung Army rules Manchuria, and the more Japanese troops it can attract to its side, so that the pressure on the battlefield in Western Manchuria will be smaller.

    Xinjing is the core area where the Kwantung Army rules the Northeast, and it is also a symbol of the Northeast it rules. Ma Chunsheng believes that although the Kwantung Army is trying to lure the emperor into a trap, they will never let Xinjing lose any possibility.  , as long as he maintains the threat to Xinjing, he can completely attract two to three divisions of the Kwantung Army and be unable to take care of him.

    If it terminates its operations on the line from Jiutai to Nong'an and cannot put actual pressure on Xinjing at all, then the Kwantung Army will have no scruples in its actions and will put all its effective forces on Western Manchuria.  The battlefield in Manchuria will bear all the pressure from the Kwantung Army. If this situation occurs, it will have a very adverse impact on the entire war situation in Western Manchuria.

    Although the battlefield north of Xinjing will not play a decisive role in achieving the ultimate goal of this battle, it can disperse the strength of the Kwantung Army, reduce the pressure on the battlefield in Western Manchuria, and especially allow the Kwantung Army to counterattack.  Due to scruples, they cannot go all out. If they can break into the urban area of ??Xinjing, even if they only stay for a short time, the Kwantung Army will not be able to invest too many troops in the Western Manchuria area.
