Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Hisao Tani, who is now full of ambition and is about to roll up his sleeves and fight, naturally would not have thought that he would end up like this, let alone his opponent, or even the entire Kwantung Army, whose current worth is higher than that of the Kwantung Army.  Whether they are alive or dead, their opponents are worth ten pounds of gold. Although they cannot spare too many troops to reinforce the Western Manchurian battlefield, they have prepared a force consisting of heavy artillery and more than a hundred aircraft for them.  A feast of firepower.

    But at this moment, his direct opponents on the battlefield in Western Manchuria had long been aware of the Kwantung Army's counterattack. Even when the Kwantung Army sat back and watched the 23rd Division fight hard in Linxi, they had already sensed something abnormal.  , and after the various divisions of the Kwantung Army participating in the war arrived at the designated combat starting areas, although they tried their best to conceal their true strategic intentions, as Yang Zhen said, it was impossible to leave no trace at all.

    Although the actual number of troops invested by the Japanese army and the deadline for launching the attack have not been ascertained, Wang Guangyu judged from the increasingly intensive activities of the Japanese army that Lin Xi was currently in a situation where a storm was about to come.  , and are ready to fight.

    In a small village northwest of Linxi County, Wang Guangyu stared at the map. Although he had not yet figured out the specific actions of the Japanese army, he was keenly aware of the changes in the Japanese army's strength around the Linxi battlefield from what he had found so far.  Lin Xi's feeling will be the top priority of the Japanese counterattack.

    How many troops the Kwantung Army will invest in counterattack, and how much equipment will be invested in this counterattack, are not a big concern to Wang Guangyu, because he knows that once this battle starts, it will definitely be earth-shattering, and worrying is of no use.  Moreover, the headquarters has been secretly strengthening the strength of the roundabout troops, although it is not too much.

    But at least in a short period of time, the roundabout troops who had been fighting hard for many days with the 23rd Division were able to regain their strength, especially the supplementary troops that arrived yesterday and were composed of 2,000 veterans who had recently been discharged from the hospital.  It is even more rare when the coalition forces have been used to the extreme.

    Moreover, after the troops were transported back to capture Lindong, the headquarters replenished the roundabout troops by land with far more ammunition than the standard equipment. At the same time, because the roundabout troops were lightly equipped, some of the artillery units left in Hailar also replenished ammunition and arrived in Linxi together with these troops.  Also coming with them were a 155 howitzer regiment, two field artillery regiments, and a regiment each of 122 and 107 rocket launchers.

    The sufficient number of artillery shells, especially the sufficient number of rocket shells that can cause the greatest damage to cluster forces, can be said to have prepared an authentic feast of firepower for Hisao Tani. In order to replenish ammunition and supplies for the outflanking troops during wartime, the Logistics Department  The Ministry of Military and Transportation worked hard.

    During the fierce battle between Du Kaishan and the 51st Division, they ignored the artillery fire between the two armies and concentrated the only three railway corps currently in the base area, as well as almost all the mechanical engineering equipment in the base area, on the shortest mountain.  Within a period of time, the railway line from Qiqihar to Nanxing'an that was bombed by the Anti-Japanese War, especially the Nanxing'an Tunnel, was repaired.

    At the same time, the American high-power steam locomotives imported last year were transferred to specifically protect the railway line from Qiqihar to Nanxing'an. Two car battalions and 800 American-made three-ton trucks were also specially deployed to partially protect the railway line from Nanxing'an to Linxi.  Using the so-called national defense highway built by the Kwantung Army, a simple wartime road was opened at the southern foot of the vast Daxingan Mountains.

    Twelve hours after the roundabout troops seized Lindong, the first batch of supplies replenished by land had arrived at the Linxi battlefield. At present, the transport aircraft at Linxi Airport have shifted their focus to transporting the wounded and sick, as well as some used by the aviation force.  Equipment and advanced equipment that cannot be transported by land.

    In addition to trying every means to strengthen the artillery of the roundabout troops, the headquarters has partially stopped the bombing along the Zhongchang Railway, Simei Railway, and Xintu Railway. Two DB three bomber groups, one A-20 attack aircraft group, all  The Su-2 light bomber brigade also secretly transferred to Linxi and Nanxing'an airports.

    In two secret airports south of Qiqihar, a group of Il-IV medium-sized bombers has been secretly assembled. With these bombers in place, there are also a large number of aerial bombs and fuel, and the aerial bombs arriving at Linxi Airport are  Among them, the most powerful napalm bombs accounted for a considerable part of the number.

    Although there are no additional tanks and the increase in troops is not much, Wang Guangyu's current heavy firepower, coupled with the over-provisioned artillery shells, is enough to make up for the lack of troops on hand. The artillery and aviation have currently completed all surrounding areas.  The targets were calculated and divided, and their respective combat scopes were delineated.

    However, the specific time when the Japanese army launched the attack was never clear, which made Wang Guangyu very worried. Although Wang Guangyu had already prepared the contingency plan, the Japanese army's delay in moving made the already protracted battle more difficult.  I was quite tired after thatTroops, keeping their nerves tense for a long time can only make the troops more exhausted.

    It's just that the war is approaching, and no one can or dares to let the troops relax, because no one knows when the Japanese army's full-scale counterattack will launch, and when the battle will start. Once the battle starts, and the troops are in a state of relaxation, then  A fatal disaster awaits the entire outflanking force.

    Although no commander likes to passively respond to the battle, this is the helplessness of a pre-emptive strike. But now that the troops have been kept at the highest alert for such a long time without fighting, the troops who were already quite tired can imagine how tired they are now, but now  All Wang Guangyu can do now is to repeatedly warn Li Mingfeng not to relax.

    When Yang Zhen left Lin Xi, he repeatedly told him that he must learn from the lessons of the 29th Army during the Marco Polo Bridge Incident in the Guanci Civil War. The Japanese army's usual method was to find you when they were unable to attack.  After the negotiation has paralyzed you, attack when you are most relaxed.

    Although the Anti-Japanese Alliance did not have the thoughts of those at the top of the 29th Army who did not want to openly and completely break up with the Japanese army in order to maintain their territory and strength, and they had never thought about resolving the problem through negotiation, they still had to guard against the Japanese army taking similar measures.  Tactics, guide yourself to make carelessness and mistakes in order to find opportunities for combat, so you must pay more attention. No matter whether you have figured out the movements of the Japanese army or not, as long as the battle has not started, you must not be careless in any way.

    Looking at Wang Guangyu, who was staring at the current overall deployment of the roundabout troops on the map, and repeatedly weighing in his mind where the Japanese offensive would start first and when the most likely start time would be, the political commissar Yi Jianping and the  Chief of Staff Sun Wenjiu said nothing and did not disturb Wang Guangyu's thoughts.

    They all knew the importance of the upcoming war in Linxi to the entire war situation. They not only felt the pressure on Wang Guangyu, but also felt the heavy pressure on themselves. The current location of the Linxi battlefield was so important that almost the entire army  At the node, the heavy pressure on them, not only Wang Guangyu, also made them almost breathless.

    They all knew that once the Linxi battlefield failed, the entire Western Manchu battlefield would be in danger of collapse. Once the Western Manchu battlefield collapsed, it would herald the failure of the battle. They originally planned to go to Rehe after taking Linxi County.  Yi Jianping, who was visiting his two old superiors, also gave up his originally planned trip.

    None of the three people spoke, their eyes were on the map in front of them, and they were all thinking about the same thing. It was just that everyone tacitly understood it, until Wang Guangyu specifically asked Yang Zhenlin to march forward before he left.  Yang Jicai's report was called back, interrupting the unusual silence in the room.

    Hearing Yang Jicai's report, although he didn't know what he was going to report, Wang Guangyu immediately felt that the Japanese army should take action. It was obvious that he had the same view as his partners and deputies.  The assistants, three people who were thinking about the same thing, all focused on Yang Jicai.

    When he saw the commander, political commissar, and chief of staff looking at him, there was something indescribable weirdness in their eyes, and even a little bit of excitement. In other words, it gave Yang Jicai the feeling that these three leaders were like one at the moment.  People who have been hungry for three days are like seeing a big pot of braised pork.

    Seeing the eyes of the three chiefs looking at him, Yang Jicai couldn't help but shudder in his heart. Although he also knew what the three chiefs were thinking, it was just the way the three chiefs looked at him that really made him feel something.  He feels like a fat sheep among wolves.

    Although he was shocked by the vicious looks the three chiefs looked at him, Yang Jicai, who knew the emergency situation, did not delay at all and immediately performed his duties as the acting deputy chief of the operations section: "Commander, political commissar, chief of staff,  The Communications Office has just reported that the Japanese military radio station, which had remained silent for most of the time, is now suddenly more active than ever before."

    "The intensity of radio transmission and reception in the past two hours exceeded the number of telegrams sent since our army captured Linxi County, and only around Linxi, high-power radio stations at the division level of the Japanese army were discovered  "In Naiman Banner, our radio direction finding equipment also detected a super-powerful 200-watt radio station."

    "According to the Japanese military establishment we currently know, radios with this power are generally only owned by the first-level Japanese military headquarters. At the same time, our reconnaissance troops lurking east of Linxi reported that Naiman Banner and Horqin Zuo Banner  The movements inside the territory are getting bigger and bigger, and they also discovered the mobilization of Japanese tanks, heavy artillery units and other heavy equipment in this area that they had never discovered before. "

    Hearing Yang Jicai¡¯s report, Wang Guangyu¡¯s frowning brows suddenly relaxed, and he turned to look at Yi Jianping and Sun Wenjiu beside him.?: "Two old guys, it seems that what we have been waiting for is about to happen. If nothing happens, the Japanese army's full counterattack will begin within an hour."

    "The radio signals that allow the Japanese army to remain hidden appear so frequently and intensively. There is no reason other than that they are ready to take action immediately. Old man, prepare to fight. We have already sharpened our knives.  This time it finally comes into play."

    After saying that, Wang Guangyu turned to Yang Jicai and said: "Order that all front-line troops prepare immediately. The aviation force and the heavy artillery strengthened by the headquarters immediately deploy across the board according to the predetermined plan. At the same time, order the armored brigade to immediately prepare for an attack.  The cavalry brigade secretly assembled into the territory of Alukorqin Banner according to the original plan."

    "Immediately forward these situations to Chen Hanzhang on the front line in Tongliao, tell him that he is ready to open the door to welcome guests, and ask him to prepare immediately, especially behind him, and to inform the two chiefs of the advancing army about the situation that is about to start here.  Make a briefing and let them be prepared to move closer to our army if the situation is unfavorable.
