    Recalling the last conversation he had with Yang Zhen about the arrangements for the advancing army, Guo Bingxun shook his head and said: "No. 1, I suggest that it is better for the advancing army to shrink for now and withdraw the main force to the territory of Heshiketeng Banner.  "In the Rexi area that has been captured so far, we will deploy a group of elite troops, especially those who are good at guerrilla warfare. As for the communication line that is suffering from intestinal obstruction, it is better to temporarily abandon it."

    "Although the Rexi area cannot threaten the Beining Railway, the threat to the hinterland of South Manchuria seems to be relatively small. However, the geographical location is important, and it is in the connection zone of the three major strategic groups of the Japanese army in North China, Chahar, and Northeast China. Control here.  To the south, it can directly threaten the inside and outside of the Great Wall, and even to reach Peking. To the west, it can threaten the flanks and rear of the Japanese army in Zhangjiakou, and to the east, it can directly penetrate the Beining Railway and even Chaoyang Beipiao."

    "Such a strategic point that can directly threaten the hinterland of the Japanese army in other directions, even if the Kwantung Army can give up, the North China Japanese army will never give up easily. Giving up here now is just a kind of helplessness under the situation of limited troops.  The temporary contraction does not mean that they will really give up such a strategic core area.¡±

    "I did not agree with the advance army shrinking to the front line of Keshiketeng Banner before the Rexi Battle of the advance army was over. That was because the war in Western Manchuria was still entangled, and the Kwantung Army's comprehensive counterattack in Western Manchuria  It hasn¡¯t started yet. Judging from all the intelligence, the Japanese troops and the Mongolian garrison in the pass have not made any big moves.¡±

    "But the current situation is very different from a few days ago. Just as you repeatedly requested, Ma Chunsheng placed the main force on the front line of Jiutai, and only placed a small number of troops outside Xinjing to distract the enemy defenders in Xinjing  . But now Wang Xiaoming, who replaced Ma Chunsheng, is asked to concentrate his forces to attack Xinjing. "

    "As for the situation around Rehe, as the North China Japanese Army's raids on our North China Anti-Japanese Base Area are coming to an end, the North China Japanese Army has now seen changes and is changing. If the North China Japanese Army goes out to fight, the advancing army will bear the brunt. And our army will bear the brunt.  The main force in the Western Manchuria battlefield is currently tightly entangled by the Kwantung Army. "

    "In this way, the entire advancing army is equivalent to hanging alone in the Rexi Mountains. It has become an extremely unfavorable protrusion that is surrounded by enemies on three sides. No. 1, if the enemy situation changes, our army will have no time to fight on the Linxi battlefield.  If he doesn't care, it will be dangerous to advance."

    "I suggest that in addition to leaving one or two brigades to hold on in the Rexi Mountains, they can shrink the main force to the front line of Keshiketeng Banner and back to back with our army. This can avoid the sudden attack of the Japanese army in North China, and at the same time, it can be used at any time  When necessary, go south to support the remaining troops in fighting. "

    "As a result, although the number of troops remaining in the Rexi Mountain Area has been reduced a lot. However, the enemy forces in Rehe are no longer able to advance westward, and the Japanese Army in South Manchuria has been attracted by our army. As long as the Japanese Army in North China does not  After exiting the customs, our situation here has not deteriorated very much, and the strength of the two brigades can completely rely on the relatively favorable terrain there to hold on to the mountainous area of ????Rexi."

    "The main force retreating north to Keshiketeng Banner can not only serve as a rear support point for the remaining troops in Rexi, but also avoid creating opportunities for the Mongolian army to participate in the war."  After Yang Jicai's attack, Wang Guangyu's remaining reserve team had also been mobilized.  Behind them, the East and West Ujimqin Banners, which are closely adjacent to the Japanese and Mongolian garrison troops, are now empty of troops.  "

    "Even if a part of the advancing army is sent north to take over their defense, the strength is still insufficient. If the Mongolian army sneaks a surprise attack from the side and rear, they will have almost no troops available due to the narrow depth. Once the Mongolian army breaks through the east and west Ujimqin Banner,  , then we are directly facing their backs. The most important thing is that whether the Japanese army in North China participates in the war or not, it is more conducive for our army to save troops if we are closer to the advancing army. "

    "It can also shorten the distance of the supply line between the Linxi battlefield and the advancing army, and at the same time, it is more conducive to the replenishment and rest of the main force of the advancing army. The main force of the advancing army is close to our army. If the Japanese army is helpless against us,  If you want to take action against them, you will be afraid of them.¡±

    "No. 1, this moment, that moment. Our overall strategic deployment should change according to changes in the enemy's situation. No matter whether the actions of the Japanese troops in the pass are directed at us or not. It is better for us to be prepared in advance than to be unprepared.  As for those heavy artillery and tanks being prepared for the Jehol battlefield, I don¡¯t really believe it.¡±

    "The terrain in the Rexi area is not suitable for the use of heavy artillery and tanks. The heavy artillery and tanks are not as useful as the cavalry there. It is obvious now that if the heavy artillery and tanks mobilized by the Japanese army go out to join the war, they will face us.  of."

    "However, the large number of military columns concentrated by the North China Front in Peiping tells us that if the North China Japanese army is dispatched, it will definitely not be just tanks and heavy artillery. It will simply carry tanks.Twenty columns of tanks and heavy artillery are not needed. The Japanese army in the pass does not have so many tanks and heavy artillery.  Now that there have been changes in North China, we must pay attention to it.  "

    "Although this kind of adjustment is suspected of changing orders overnight. But we cannot ignore the danger just because of some superficial reasons. No. 1, if the Japanese army appearing on the Linxi battlefield is a division, we don't need to  Worry. If the Kwantung Army only dispatches one division, Wang Guangyu will be able to do whatever he wants."

    "But the Japanese troops of the two divisions have already stretched our army's strength on the Linxi battlefield. If the North China Front Army or the Mongolian garrison army appear in Rehe at this time, we will not be able to mobilize any force at the moment.  , to coordinate or support the advancing army."

    "I suggest you send a few telegrams to the head of the advancing army to explain clearly the current unfavorable situation they are in. Try your best to get them all to withdraw north and get closer to Wang Guangyu's troops on the Linxi battlefield. Willing to give up, give up, give up,  Only by giving up when necessary can we gain something.¡±

    "It is true that we have temporarily abandoned the Rexi area now, and it is true that we have lost the best starting point for the next operation. But it is better to give up temporarily than to let the advancing army suffer heavy losses. As long as our effective forces are preserved, Rexi will be  If you lose it, we can get it back at any time.¡±

    "Instead of taking the risk of the advancing army being besieged on three sides, it is better to give up temporarily. As for the communication line that is not actually smooth, at least it does not have any strategic significance for us at the moment. It can even be said that even the most  The basic tactical significance is actually very little.¡±

    "Is it worthwhile to join the advancing army for such a so-called transportation line that actually has no meaning? No. 1, you are a little obsessed. The two of us privately said that we should abandon this so-called transportation line and treat us badly.  A one-step plan actually has other benefits.¡±

    "Think about it carefully, what are the differences between you and the advancing army on the next strategy? As long as we hold the East and West Ujimqin Banners, we will have a solid starting point. Rexishan District, currently for me  The actual strategic significance of the army is not very great.¡±

    Guo Bingxun¡¯s words awakened Yang Zhen like an enlightenment.  As Guo Bingxun said, such a transportation line that can neither transport people nor transfer large amounts of materials is almost meaningless.  It is indeed worthless for the advancing army to take such a big risk for such a so-called transportation line.

    If the next step of the battle really unfolds according to your own vision.  If the main attack direction is turned to the Chabei area, the Rexi area will only serve as a cover.  It is perfectly fine to leave a small force to persist, there is no need to leave the entire advancing army there to be attacked on three sides.

    At the same time, due to the situation, forcing us to abandon this current traffic line, which is actually not smooth, is not just a statement to the central government to rely on the two guerrilla base areas of Jidong and Pingbei to open up transportation with other North China base areas.  As long as the Japanese North China Front was not fundamentally weakened, it was impossible to form a stable line of communication.

    With this situation happening now, wouldn¡¯t it be appropriate to take the opportunity to appeal to the central government and implement your next battle plan with the Chabei region as the main target according to your own plan?  Although this idea is not very bright, for the sake of the next strategic consideration, we should still make a decision early.

    Especially now that the Japanese army in North China has made changes and it is no longer necessary to stick to the Rexi Mountains, it might not be a bad thing to temporarily abandon the Rexi Mountains and shrink the entire advancing army to the Keshiketeng Banner.  Guo Bingxun is right, if you are willing to give up, you will gain something if you give up.

    ¡°And just like Guo Bingxun said, under his nose, if he throws it away, he can take it back at any time if necessary.  But if something went wrong with the advancing army, it would not be able to explain it to the central government, which would be equivalent to breaking an arm on the battlefield in Western Manchuria.  Moreover, the Keshiketeng Banner is the commanding heights of the entire Western Manchuria battlefield. Controlling the Keshiketeng Banner, one can overlook the entire current Western Manchuria battlefield.

    But the advancing troops cannot all withdraw to the territory of Heshiketeng Banner. A certain number of troops must be ensured in the territory of the paddock, and at the same time, Qilaotu Mountain, the natural barrier between Chifeng, the Keshiketeng Banner, and the paddock must be controlled.  At the same time, some troops were mobilized to seize the Abaga Banner and Sunit Left Banner north of the Hunshandake Sandy Land, expand the depth of the rear defense of the Linxi battlefield, and ensure the absolute security of the rear of the Linxi battlefield.

    By seizing Abaga Banner and Sunit Zuo Banner, Hunshandake Sandy Land can be used as a natural barrier to defend against possible sneak attacks by Japanese and Mongolian garrison troops.  To the south, the defense depth is from the paddock to the Keshiketeng Banner Mountains. Once the Japanese troops in North China leave the border, they can use the favorable terrain in the Rexi Mountains to resist.

    In this way, not only the entire southern front of the Linxi battlefield will be reliably protected.  Moreover, the entire southern front is in a position where we can advance and attack, and retreat and defend.  onlyThe terrain of Hunshandake Sand Land, Abaga Banner and Sunitzuo Banner is relatively flat.  It is very conducive to the cavalry assault of the Japanese and Mongolian garrison troops and the puppet Mongolian army.

    The Japanese garrison in Mongolia had an entire cavalry group and several tank squadrons that could cooperate with the cavalry in combat.  Coupled with the cavalry troops of the puppet Mongolian army, their concentrated breakthrough power is extremely strong.  The terrain there is flat, which is very conducive to the rapid assault of the Japanese army.  There is still a gap between the advancing cavalry units and the cavalry units of the Japanese and puppet troops.  Not only is the gap in quantity, but the gap in quality is also quite large.

    Of the advancing cavalry, currently only two cavalry regiments have combat effectiveness.  Although the remaining two newly formed cavalry regiments have completed the replacement of horses, the troops that were originally mixed with mules have all been replaced by Ujimqin horses, which were once the best horses among Mongolian horses.  But it is one thing to complete the change of clothes, and it is another thing to fully form the combat effectiveness.

    However, as long as the problem of dealing with the Japanese and puppet cavalry is solved and the action of seizing the Abaga Banner and the Sunit Left Banner is achieved, there will be much to be done.  Not only will it provide a very favorable starting point for the next stage of the campaign, but it can also completely ensure the security of the rear of the Linxi battlefield.
