    Therefore, Ma Chunsheng insisted on not changing his tactics, even though he knew it was a risk, but he believed that the risk was worth taking as long as it was beneficial to the success of the entire campaign. Ma Chunsheng stated his views many times in the telegram with Li Yanping and Guo Bingxun, who worked for the abbot.  Thoughts and suggestions, although Li Yanping and Guo Bingxun have made it clear that he does not need to take this risk, he still insists on his opinion.

    Ma Chunsheng is a very stubborn person. He believes that even if all the troops in Xinjingbei are sacrificed, as long as it can restrain the Kwantung Army from focusing all its attention on Western Manchuria, it is worth it. Moreover, Ma Chunsheng believes that although he has  They may be surrounded by the Kwantung Army, but if they want to eat them, at least so far the Kwantung Army doesn't have that good appetite.

    Of course, Ma Chunsheng thinks this way, and he still thinks that the capital in his hands is strong enough. Currently, he has three reorganized divisions. In addition to the number of artillery attached to the division, the number of attached artillery, after strengthening, the number of large-caliber artillery and rocket launchers is currently the largest number of each in the entire army.  The crown of the column.

    At present, Ma Chunsheng's headquarters in front of Xinjing is only equipped with two 150 heavy artillery regiments. The number of 122 rocket launchers is also the largest. The only Japanese-style 92-type 105 cannon regiment in the entire army.  They were also assigned to them. Although the number of tanks was not as good as that of Wang Guangyu and Chen Hanzhang, the number of tanks equipped was the third in the entire army.

    The trucks it originally belonged to were not counted. Considering that the battlefield north of Xinjing was dominated by mobile operations, Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun successively assigned three vehicle battalions to it, plus more than 100 Japanese trucks captured on the battlefield.  , Ma Chunsheng currently has thousands of trucks of various types in his hands, plus the thousands of attached packhorses and carriages, the maneuverability of his unit can be said to be quite good.

    The advantages in equipment gave Ma Chunsheng considerable confidence. He was looking forward to a clean and efficient battle of annihilation north of Xinjing, encircling and annihilating part or even most of the Japanese army north of Xinjing, but he did not expect that.  After he broke through Yushu and entered the Jiutai front line, the Japanese troops north of Xinjing gave up most of their positions to compete with him and quickly retreated to Xinjing.

    After his attempt to fight a big battle north of Xinjing failed, Ma Chunsheng, after comprehensively assessing the situation around him, immediately launched a tank-led pursuit and chased down Xinjing in one breath. But this  If this guy dares to do this, he should be well prepared.

    When Yang Zhen went to Rehe, the headquarters had notified him to control the speed of the attack to prevent the Japanese army from destroying the Songhua River embankment and cutting off its escape route. He had already made up his mind to at least entangle the main force of the Japanese army north of Xinjing.  Ma Chunsheng, who lives there, mobilized all means to achieve his own tactical goals. Most of the ammunition and materials stored in the twin cities have been transported across the river.

    The ammunition he currently reserves in Yushu is enough for him to use it for a month according to the current ammunition consumption standards. The artillery shells are based on three and a half bases for each gun, five bases for mortars and recoilless rifles, and small arms ammunition.  , transporting 70% of the ammunition stored in the Shuangcheng across the river.

    There is no need to worry about the issue of food. He captured a large granary of the Kwantung Army in Dehui. The food in this granary occupies the Kwantung Army's reserves north of Xinjing and supplies them to the various divisions fighting north of Xinjing. Although  The Kwantung Army burned part of it by fire during its retreat, but the remaining reserves inside are still quite substantial.

    There are thousands of tons of grain stored in it, as well as a large number of Japanese military cans and supplementary food reserves. Although the various cans of the Japanese army, in addition to canned beef, the rest include canned whale meat and other canned food.  , and non-staple foods such as Zeanzuke were not popular with the Anti-Japanese Alliance officers and soldiers, but the dried vegetables and miso, as well as well-made yokan, sweets such as candies, were very popular with the Anti-Japanese Alliance officers and soldiers.

    These grains and supplies are enough for him to last for half a year without the headquarters allocating a pound of grain. In addition to the amount of materials that have been rushed across the river, according to the material reserves he currently has on hand, even within a month  If we cannot get supplies from the rear, there will never be a shortage.

    Therefore, Ma Chunsheng believes that even if the Kwantung Army succeeds in blowing up the Songhua River embankment and his connection with the rear area of ????Jiangbei is cut off, apart from a certain shortage of gasoline, the supplies in his hands will be sufficient to enable his troops to  The outskirts of Xinjing persisted until the flood receded and the connection between him and Jiangbei was restored. Judging from the extent of his preparations, it makes sense for this guy to be confident.

    The most important thing is that in Ma Chunsheng's view, according to the current strength he has at hand, if the Kwantung Army wants to severely damage them, it must concentrate at least three or more divisions. If it wants to devour them in one go, it must concentrate at least four or more divisions.  The strength of the troops, and according to the current situation of the entire battlefield, the Kwantung Army simply cannot concentrate such a large number of troops.

    Even if there is a certain danger, but the level of danger is not high, which is why he repeatedly ignored the headquarters' orders and acted without permission. In his opinion, if the Japanese conspiracy is true, it would be very worrying. He is not illiterate.  He is still very aware of the power of nature, and as a native of the Northeast, he is very familiar with the amount of water in the Songhua River during flood periods.

    However, he believes that regardless of whether the Kwantung Army's conspiracy is true or not, one thing is certain, that is, the headquarters will never let the Kwantung Army's conspiracy to destroy the embankment succeed, because the safety of the Songhua River embankment is not only related to  What matters most is the safety of the rear and supply lines of the troops that have crossed the river to join the war, as well as the safety of nearly one million people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.

    More importantly, on the north bank of the Songhua River, hundreds of thousands of acres are about to be harvested, and the plain area on the north bank of the Songhua River is one of the important grain-producing areas in the base because of its abundant water resources.  During the sneak attacks that came and went, the agricultural production here did not completely stop.

    Once the river embankment is destroyed, the damage to the base area will definitely not be less than the threat on the battlefield. Just from ensuring the food security of the base area this winter and next spring, the headquarters will definitely do everything possible to destroy the Japanese army's conspiracy, and also to ensure the food security of the base area this winter and next spring.  It was with this idea that he dared to bargain with Li Yanping and Guo Bingxun's orders.

    It was the combination of these reasons that made him firmly want to fight a war in Xinjing. It can be said that Ma Chunsheng is very confident now. He believes that the strength in his hands, coupled with his previous painstaking efforts,  Be prepared and you can at least be invincible.

    As for this guy's stubbornness, Yang Zhen had a deep understanding of this guy's stubbornness as early as the Battle of Qunce Mountain. Although he also thought Ma Chunsheng's idea was reasonable, he allowed Yang Zhen to equip some tanks. The number of heavy artillery was at present  No matter what, he still couldn't agree to the fact that a complete column with the largest number of troops in all directions and a total strength of three divisions would take this risk.

    To be honest, Yang Zhen also wanted to maintain a certain amount of pressure on the Xinjing battlefield to disperse the Kwantung Army's possible investment in the Western Manchu battlefield. However, this pressure must not have an impact on the entire use of troops by the Anti-Japanese Alliance. According to Yang  According to Zhen's original plan, Ma Chunsheng's offensive in Xinjingbei not only played a containment role, but also served as a reserve reserve for the entire army when necessary.

    The troops in his hands must be adjusted according to the development and changes of the situation when necessary. The troops in the hands of Du Kaishan, who is currently serving as the general reserve force on the Western Front, judging from the changes in the overall situation on the battlefield in Western Manchuria, once the Kwantung Army  Investing major efforts may well appear to be somewhat inadequate when necessary.

    Du Kaishan's headquarters had been fighting in the mountains of Nanxing'an before. In addition to the artillery of their respective divisions, most of the equipment they were equipped with was light and convenient for mountain operations. The tanks originally attached to them were all transferred to Wang Guangyu's headquarters.  In ground operations, the Su-2 light bombers are mainly used for fire support.

    The attached heavy artillery, in addition to a mortar regiment equipped with thirty-six Japanese-made Type 96 150mm heavy mortars, only has an artillery regiment equipped with Japanese-made 105 heavy mountain guns.  Its heavy firepower is the weakest link among the troops in several directions.

    Although when rushing to Ganyu to hide and stand by, the headquarters strengthened two 122 rocket launcher battalions and a 150 howitzer battalion, the total firepower was still relatively weak. At this time, the anti-alliance headquarters had artillery reserves.  There are not many troops left, and it is impossible to continue to strengthen the firepower of Du Kaishan's headquarters in a short period of time.

    Under this situation, Ma Chunsheng's unit, which has the most powerful artillery force, has become the best cash machine. According to the headquarters' combat plan, among its attached artillery units, after the battle on the Western Front begins, at least  Transfer one-third of the troops to strengthen Du Kaishan's command.

    It¡¯s not just artillery. According to Yang Zhen¡¯s plan, once Ma Chunsheng¡¯s and Wang Xiaoming¡¯s offensives around Xinjing are coordinated, the two units will be combined into one, and when necessary, at least one must be mobilized in this direction.  Two divisions of troops were used because Yang Zhen did not want to capture Xinjing prematurely, a large city with a current population of nearly one million.

    Moreover, the current capture of Xinjing is not only a heavy economic and political burden for the Anti-Japanese Alliance, but also a considerable military drag. The thinking of the Chinese people is that you should not capture it, but since it is captured  Yes, it must not be lost.

    According to the status of Xinjing, if the Anti-Japanese Alliance were to capture it, they would have to devote at least three divisions to defensive operations. This would be quite unfavorable for the implementation of the Anti-Japanese Alliance's next operational plan, which is mainly focused on Western Manchuria. The Kwantung Army could attack from within the Pass and North Korea.  And the mainland has received a steady stream of supplements, but for the Anti-Japanese Alliance, there is no such foundation. Yang Zhen cannot tolerate it and confine a large number of troops originally used for mobile operations to oneland.

    The strength of the three divisions in Ma Chunsheng's hands, plus Wang Xiaoming's troops who cooperated with him, seemed to be quite large. However, for the entire battle situation, once Ma Chunsheng put his troops into the meat grinder outside Xinjing,  Although it can distract the Kwantung Army's attention and potential investment in Western Manchuria, in fact, this kind of battle is even more disadvantageous to the Alliance.

    The Battle of Xinjing will be an out-and-out meat grinder for both the Kwantung Army and the Anti-Japanese Alliance. Once Ma Chunsheng devotes his troops to the Battle of Xinjing, not only will his troops be firmly  In the Battle of Xinjing, it is impossible to carry out any mobile combat.

    Moreover, in order to support its operations, Wang Xiaoming's troops to the east will be attracted to the outskirts of Xinjing, especially to the east of Xinjing, which cannot be moved elsewhere. This will cause limited troops, and the successor force is far inferior to the Kwantung Army, so they can only concentrate their forces.  In terms of ensuring the key direction of the Anti-League, it will undoubtedly be in a quite unfavorable situation.

    As for the reason why Ma Chunsheng persists, in Yang Zhen's opinion, although what he said makes sense, I am afraid that in his heart, he may not have captured Xinjing and put himself in the entire battle situation.  Being in a cooperative position has become another core idea besides Ximan.
