    In the telegram, Yang Jicai, who knew that there was not much time left for him, bluntly requested that at least one more battalion be added to the Kangbao battlefield within a short period of time. Otherwise, if the current battle situation continues, the Kangbao battlefield will be destroyed.  The existing strength of the troops participating in the war is not only difficult to meet the needs of their superiors, but there is also the danger of being bitten by the enemy due to insufficient strength.

    Especially the troops on the northern front, due to the huge disparity in strength and firepower, may even be defeated by the Japanese army. Su Yingqi's reinforced battalion cannot compete with the two Japanese infantry brigades with superior firepower coverage.  Gain the upper hand when competing.

    The northern front troops are currently facing attacks from three sides. After nearly twenty-four hours of fierce fighting, more than half of the troops participating in the battle have been killed or injured. In order to ensure the stability of the front line due to insufficient troops, Su Yingqi has even sent troops to monitor the front line of Mandetang.  The last complete organic platoon was also engaged in frontal combat, and there was no longer a squad of reserve teams in hand.

    If I had not quickly sent reinforcements to the 107th Rocket Launcher Company to the Northern Front this morning, and used the firepower density of the rocket launchers to defeat several group charges of the Japanese army at the expense of shells, I am afraid that the Northern Front troops with more than half of the casualties would not be able to support it at this time.  , the position was overwhelmed by the Japanese army.

    Although it has withstood another day of crazy counterattacks by the Japanese army, at present, the rocket launcher battery has consumed two-thirds of the artillery shells it carries, and the few remaining artillery shells cannot be used until the most critical moment. At the latest,  If the northern front cannot receive reinforcements before noon tomorrow, it will be really difficult to hold on.

    Once the troops on the northern front are defeated and the commanding heights are recaptured by the Japanese army, the battle situation of Kangbao is in danger of completely collapsing. If the battle situation of Kangbao collapses, although it will not affect the overall situation of the entire Western Front, it will be a waste of the entire Western Front.  The current situation of the war requires the most time.

    Yang Jicai, who knew the character of his acting commander, did not ask for a battalion of reinforcements. In fact, according to the current situation on the battlefield, although it seems to be as dangerous as a pebble, for the resistance,  But there is still no chance.

    In order to regain the commanding heights of the Northern Front, Major General Kenkichi Ikegami invested almost all his capital on the Northern Front. In other words, although the Northern Front is now in a dangerous situation, in other directions, due to the lack of Japanese defense forces,  Even if it was too much, it left Yang Jicai a very rare opportunity.

    Yang Jicai has already used the effective force at hand to the extreme. If he is given a regiment of reinforcements and even two tank companies, he dares to launch a full-scale counterattack on the southern and northeastern fronts now, and completely defeat this independent country in one go.  Mixed into the 9th Brigade.

    But the reality now is that he no longer has any troops on hand to launch even a decent attack on the southern front, and he knows that his acting commander is too prudent, and at least the 26th Division has not been completely solved  Before, he was not a character who would invest too many troops at once in the direction of health protection.

    He no longer had that extravagant hope. He only hoped to add a battalion of troops so that his millstone tactics could have the greatest effect. Although he lost a rare fighter opportunity, it was better than letting this independent ninth brigade.  It's much better to be free and at ease here.

    After receiving Yang Jicai's telegram, Wang Minggui, who immediately felt that the battle situation on the Kangbao front line was extremely tense, rushed to the headquarters to find Liu Changshun and asked him to dispatch two battalions to reinforce the Kangbao battlefield. Although Yang Jicai only requested one battalion of reinforcements,  Wang Minggui's consideration is not just about mixing with the independent Ninth Brigade.

    If the ninth independent mixed brigade can be completely defeated before the new order is issued from the headquarters, then a very good situation will be created for the next battle. However, Wang Minggui's persuasion still failed.  Change any situation.

    Liu Changshun, the acting commander-in-chief of the Western Front, still stubbornly wanted to deal with the remnants of the 26th Division first and defeat the 110th Division first, and refused to deploy any troops to reinforce the Kangbao front line. Liu Changshun not only did not send reinforcements, but instead  It is to ask Yang Jicai to immediately change his tactics and give up the current idea of ??continuing the attack.

    Using the cover of night, he immediately withdrew the troops deployed on the northern line in the direction of Kangbao and merged with his main force. He first concentrated his effective forces on the independent ninth mixed brigade and waited for the main force to take action on other matters.  The order given to him was to contain the Japanese and puppet troops in the direction of Kangbao, not to completely defeat them in one go.

    After hearing Liu Changshun's determination, Wang Minggui was so angry that he almost knocked himself to the ground. This acting commander was so imaginative that he allowed Su Yingqi, who had insufficient troops, to retreat under siege from three sides and continuous Japanese charges. This was not  Let Su Yingqi seek death on his own?

    Besides, the number of troops Yang Jicai requested was not large.??As long as one more battalion is added, is it true that not even a battalion can be drawn out of the entire Western Front battlefield now? The current military strength of the entire Western Front, excluding the circuitous interspersed clusters commanded by Chen Hanzhang, is on the front alone.  There are five divisions, one armored brigade, plus several independent tank battalions.

    The additional division from the headquarters has now reached the front line with the white flag. The troops in Liu Changshun's hands are now quite sufficient. The reserve force in your hands now has the strength of two regiments, not to mention one battalion.  Completely follow your plan to completely deal with the 26th Division first, but it won't be a big problem to draw another regiment.

    Let's not talk about the battle situation in Kangbao. Reinforcements are urgently needed. Commander Chen's side has already captured Feng Town. Yi Liangpin in the north is fighting fiercely with the 69th Division. Now Commander Chen's side is also in urgent need of reinforcements. You are always so focused on the present.  , is it really necessary to wait until Chen Hanzhang, who broke in alone on the Suinan battlefield and was eaten by the Japanese army, would make this determination?

    At present, the Jining cluster under the command of Yi Liangpin is facing not only the Japanese troops stationed locally, but also the entire 69th Division. Even with the support of tanks, insufficient troops have become the biggest shortcoming of the Jining battlefield.  In order to trap the 69th Division from retreating south to Fengzhen, or heading east into the battlefields of Chaxi and Suidong, Yi Liangpin could only stick to the Japanese troops in Jining as much as possible.

    But the Sixty-ninth Division, although it did suffer heavy losses under Yi Liangpin's sudden attack, is still a reorganized division. A skinny camel is bigger than an ox, and Yi Liangpin's maneuverability is indescribable.  , but the number of infantry in hand was insufficient, and they could only fight in a stalemate with the Japanese army.

    Once the Sixty-ninth Division breaks through Yi Liangpin's blockade, whether it joins the Suidong battlefield eastward or retreats southward to recapture Fengzhen, it will have an irreparable impact on the entire Suinan war situation, especially once it is removed from the Jilin battlefield.  Ning's full force to break out of the encirclement to the south will bring a fatal threat to the war situation in northern Shanxi.

    Even if the Sixty-ninth Division does not go south, but to break Yi Liangpin's interception and attack Japan with all its strength, once it joins the Suidong battlefield, it will bring about the current battle situation. By then, the entire Sui  The battle situation in the east and west will become more complex and changeable.

    Commander Chen is fighting in the heart of the enemy, surrounded by Japanese troops. He faces not only the Japanese troops in Suinan and Chaxi, but also the Japanese troops in northern Shanxi, and even the Japanese troops in the entire Shanxi. They do not have enough troops there. Once the surrounding enemies  The army besieged him from all sides, and the consequences were unimaginable.

    Especially now, with the cooperation and guidance of the local armed forces of the Shanxi-Sui Military Region, Mu Changqiu did not choose to enter the pass through the Shahukou, which is far away, nor did he choose the Shengkou due north of Datong as a breakthrough point to enter the Datong Basin. Instead, he chose  In order to get closer to Datong, the Great Wall on the side of Juiqiang Fort and Jumen Fort in the southwest of Fengzhen served as the focus of the assault.

    Compared with the Killing Tiger Pass line that runs through the mountains, the terrain around Juiqiang Fort is flat, which is more conducive to the assault of Mu Changqiu's armored cavalry group. Mu Changqiu's vision was quite precise in choosing this direction as the main breakthrough direction.  , although the support available here is not as good as the Shahukou direction equivalent to internal operations, it is closer to Datong.

    Mu Changqiu took advantage of the Japanese army's attention and was able to get to the front lines of Jining and Fengzhen. From the relatively weak northwest flank of the Japanese army in Datong, he avoided the Japanese defenders in Liangcheng and directly tore open the Japanese army's defenses at the Reiqiang Fort and Fengzhen.  Due to the weak defense of the Japanese army at Fort Shumen, his tanks and cavalry groups directly broke through the Japanese blocking line.

    The troops divided into two routes and bypassed the northern and southern wings of Wuzhou Mountain without making any stops. With tanks as the forerunners and the four remaining regiments in the Shanxi-Sui Military Region, as well as the cooperation of some local armed forces, the southern route had forcibly penetrated to Baima on the outskirts of Datong.  City, was fighting fiercely with the Japanese defenders of Datong.

    The troops on the northern front, with the cooperation of a regiment from the Jinsui Military Region, rushed directly through the Japanese defense line in Gushan and directly reached the northern city wall of Datong. They adopted the tactic of continuous blasting under the cover of direct-aiming tanks and artillery. The wall had already collapsed.  On the northern city wall of Datong, a regiment of troops, with the cooperation of the local armed forces of the Shanxi-Sui Military Region, has rushed into the urban area of ??Datong.

    Although Mu Changqiu's breakthrough speed was quite fast, the Japanese army's reaction speed was not slow either. At almost the same time as Mu Changqiu's northern troops rushed into Datong City, Tianzhen, Gaoyang, Kouquan, and Yingxian counties around Datong  The Japanese troops in , Guoxian, and Shuozhou mobilized to reinforce the outskirts of Datong.

    Although the local armed forces of the Jinsui Military Region around the Datong battlefield concentrated a considerable part of their forces to block the attack, due to insufficient equipment and training, they could only slow down the Japanese reinforcements as much as possible. The main force of the Jinsui Military Region had already moved north, and those who stayed behind  The elite troops also went north to cooperate with Mu Changqiu's intervention.

    "The ones left behind in the base area in northwestern Shanxi are some local armed forces. Whether it is equipment or training, they are very different from the Japanese army. Although these troops have tried their best to stop them, theyNai's strength is limited and it is difficult to buy too much time for Mu Changqiu to seize Datong. At this time, the three regiments reinforced by Beiyue District are still rushing towards the Sanggan River. The troops from Taiyue Military Region and Taihang Military Region are far away from Shanxi.  The distance to the north is farther, and the enemy situation in the middle is more complicated.

    Judging from the entire battle situation on the Western Front, Wang Minggui believes that the Suinan battlefield has reached the moment of life and death. If some reinforcements can be added to the Suinan battlefield within a period of time, it will at least ensure that other reinforcements mobilized by northern Shanxi and Suinan at the headquarters  Before the reinforcements arrived, they were surrounded by the Japanese troops rushing up from the surrounding area.

    The headquarters is currently coordinating all parties to provide reinforcements to the battlefield in northern Shanxi. As long as these reinforcements can arrive, the battle in northern Shanxi will replace the current Suidong and Chanan battlefields and become the core point of the entire western front battle. Then the entire Suinan battlefield will be  and northern Shanxi battlefields will attract the main attention of the Japanese army, and the Suidong and Chaxi battlefields can be fought step by step.

    At that time, using the terrain of northern Shanxi and the support of internal troops, it is completely possible to use northern Shanxi as the main battlefield and ensure that the results obtained previously can be maximized. Overall, the terrain of Suinan and the surrounding enemy situation must be  It is much more advantageous than the current battlefields in Suidong and Chaxi.
