Chapter 295: The Battle of Wuhan is about to break out! (Ask for a subscription!) )

During the period when Yang Jing led the Tiger Regiment to establish an anti-Japanese base in Jinzhai County, the frontal battlefield also underwent earth-shaking changes.

The first was the battle in the direction of the Longhai Railway, because Yang Jing led the Huben Regiment in the Fuyang and Funan areas, and won successive battles, not only dragging the 9th and 6th divisions of the Japanese army, but also inflicting heavy losses on them.

The Japanese army was drawn from the 6th Division, a surprise attack force the size of an infantry wing, and was also attacked by the five major powers in the Xuchang area. The stubborn resistance of the 74th Army, the head of the main force of the army.

The lone Japanese surprise attack force was finally defeated under the city of Xuchang because there was no rear support.

The 74th Army took advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, and in the end, only a very small number of devils were able to escape and ascend to heaven in the chaos.

Under the double blow, the Japanese 9th Division and the 6th Division had no extra troops to support their strategic plan to continue to advance westward along the Longhai Railway and invade the Central Plains.

Of course, the end of the Japanese army's battle in the direction of the Longhai Railway also had the factor of excessive losses in the previous battles of Taierzhuang, the Battle of Nianzhuang, the Battle of Linhuaiguan, and the Battle of Lanfeng.

The combination of various unfavorable factors forced the Japanese army to stop its offensive and temporarily turn to rest.

In the end, the Japanese military found that the root cause of all this is inseparable from one person and one unit.

This person's name is Yang Jing, and the number of this unit is called Tiger Bentuan.

Whether it was the Battle of Taierzhuang, or the Battle of Nianzhuang, and later Linhuai Pass and Lanfeng, it was the final Battle of Fuyang, and almost all of them participated in the Tiger Bun Regiment.

The heavy losses inflicted on the Japanese army by the Tiger Ben Regiment almost shocked the entire government and the opposition of the Japanese Empire and the whole country.

The angry Emperor and the cabinet ministers once again gave the invading Japanese army a death order to eliminate Yang Jing and his Tiger Ben Regiment at all costs.

It is not only for the sake of shame, but also to clear the way for them to level China and conquer the whole of Asia.

For this reason, the base camp of the devils carried out the first strategic mobilization since the outbreak of the war of aggression against China in Japan.

More than 200,000 retired soldiers were conscripted and re-enlisted to replenish the losses of the invading Japanese army and the two major fronts in North and Central China.

After more than a month of rest and replenishment, the two major fronts of the Japanese army recovered their strength.

Several Japanese divisions and regiments that were disabled by the Tiger Regiment also restored their original strength and structure.

It is worth mentioning that nearly two-thirds of these 200,000 troops have been replenished into the Central China Front of the Japanese Army, which suffered relatively heavy losses.

The strategic purpose of the devil's base camp is very clear, to enhance the strength of the Central China Front, so that the Central China Front has the ability to eliminate the Tiger Ben Regiment led by Yang Jing.

Of course, the reason for this arrangement is because through the information provided by Yoshiko Kawashima, the little devil learned that the Tiger Ben Regiment had retreated to Jinzhai County, south of the Huai River and in the hinterland of the Dabie Mountains.

And it was not like the other main forces of the Fifth and First Theaters of Operations, which retreated to the Central Plains.

Nor did they retreat to the Two Lakes area, which was the rear of the Great Rear.

In this way, with the addition of the original troops, the total strength of the Japanese army in Central China has exceeded 300,000.

……

At the end of July 38, the Japanese army in North China mobilized more than 200,000 troops to launch an attack on the Central Plains along the Pinghan Railway Line, from north to south.

Trying to get out of Wusheng Pass and enter Hubei.

The Japanese army in Central China mobilized 200,000 troops to attack westward along both sides of the Yangtze River, and the front of the troops was directed at Wuhan, the national capital at that time.

Another 100,000 troops were assembled from Hefei and prepared to attack the Huben Regiment entrenched in Jinzhai County and the New Fourth Army in the Dabie Mountain area.

Then along the northern foot of Dabie Mountain, cross Dabie Mountain, attack Huangchuan and Xinyang, join forces with the Japanese army in North China, and attack Wuhan from north to south along the Pinghan Railway.

Because of Yang Jing's birth, this battle was more than a month later than in history.

In addition to these more than 500,000 troops, the Japanese army also mobilized more than 500 aircraft and more than 200 ships of various displacements in order to achieve the strategic goal of simultaneously occupying Wuhan and eliminating the Tiger Ben Regiment.

Combined, the navy, land and air force have a total strength of nearly 600,000 people!

Of course, it must be worth mentioning that at that time, the Japanese army did not have an air force, and there were only two types of air-based aviation and road-based aviation, which belonged to the combat sequence of the navy and the army.

In view of the strong combat effectiveness shown by the Tiger Ben Regiment in the previous battles, the Japanese army no longer dared to underestimate the Tiger Ben Regiment.

As a result, the Japanese base camp appointed Okamura Ningji, who was then the commander of the 11th Army, to command 100,000 Japanese troops in Hefei to be responsible for exterminating the Tiger Ben Regiment and the New Fourth Army.

The reason why the New Fourth Army is also included in it is because the Japanese army learned from the investigation that the reason why the Tiger Ben Regiment was able to break through from Fuyang City at that time was inseparable from the cooperation of the New Fourth Army.

After hearing this news, the Japanese base camp was annoyed and angry, and naturally hated the New Fourth Army led by the Communist Party to the core.

Because of the Battle of Fuyang, it was the closest they came to annihilating the Tiger Ben Regiment by the Imperial Japanese Army.

……

After receiving the appointment, Okamura Ninji arrived in Hefei by plane, and at the same time immediately dispatched a large number of reconnaissance troops to conduct military reconnaissance in the area around the northern foot of the Dabie Mountain.

At the same time, Yoshiko Kawashima was ordered not to take risks for the time being and continue to provide intelligence to the imperial army.

In order to ensure that he can accurately grasp every move of the Tiger Regiment, so as to mobilize troops to encircle and suppress, and complete his work in one battle.

Don't give the Tiger Ben any chance to escape and break through!

When the time is ripe, send an elite special agent unit to unite with Yoshiko Kawashima to secretly carry out a fatal blow to the command hub of Yang Jing and the Tiger Ben Regiment.

And just when Okamura Ninji mobilized a large number of troops and prepared to launch a sweep of the Dabie Mountain area.

The underground party intelligence officers lurking in the Hefei area also noticed the abnormality of the Japanese army and reported the news to the party organization.

Although the party organization did not know the specific purpose of the Japanese army, Hefei was not far from the base of the independent regiment of the New Fourth Army, and the Huben regiment also opened up a base in Jinzhai County.

It's definitely not good for the devil to gather so many troops!

While ordering the members of the underground party to continue to closely monitor the movements of the devils, the party organization informed the independent regiment of the situation.

So that they can be prepared and prepared in advance.

The stakes were so high that Yu Zongping, Ye Yun, and Zhou Zichen and other high-level leaders of the Independent Regiment immediately convened an emergency military meeting.

In the end, it was concluded that it was absolutely impossible for the Japanese army to make such a big move to deal with their independent regiment.

Since it is not against the independent regiment, it means that these little devils are coming for the Tiger Regiment.

Only the Tiger Ben Regiment is worthy of such a big effort by the Japanese army!

Considering the role of the Tiger Ben Tuan in the entire Chinese anti-Japanese armed forces, and the fact that the party organization also has the intention of pulling the Hu Ben Tuan into the gang.

As a result, the Independent Regiment immediately shared this information with the Tiger Ben Regiment.

……

The picture pulls to Jinzhai County.

Tiger Regiment Station.

At that time, Yang Jing, Bi Yuntao, Fan Tietou and others were training troops.

The recruits had just joined the army, and in order to encourage their enthusiasm for training, Yang Jing was invited to give a speech to the officers and men of each battalion.

"Brethren, we have just carried out land reform, and now we all have land in our homes!

What land means, I'm sure you all understand. Yang Jing stood on a podium, holding a high-powered tweeter, facing thousands of recruits, and said with a solemn expression: "However, if the devil calls, we will not only lose these lands, but also take away our homes!" Displaced, uprooted and homeless refugees again! ”

After saying this, Yang Jing's tone suddenly rose a few points, and he said suddenly: "You say, what are we going to do?" ”

"Fight with the little devils! Defend our homeland and our land to the death! Defend our parents and families! One of the recruits took the lead in responding.

The rest of the people followed suit: "Fight with the little devil to the end!" Defend our homeland and our land to the death! Defend our parents and families! ”

“……”

Yang Jing waved his hand and said awe-inspiringly: "Yes, what you said is right!"

From now on, you join the army to serve the country, and you will not only protect our country, but also our nation! Our dignity!

It is our own homeland, our own parents, wives and children, and our own land!

Defend the family and the country, that's the truth! ”

After a pause, Yang Jing continued: "However, if you want to resist the aggression of the Japanese devils, you still have to work harder, train hard, and improve your combat effectiveness as soon as possible."

Only then will we be able to fight the Japanese army for a long time when the war comes! Defend our base! Defend our own homeland!

Because the little devil is far more powerful than you think!

The reason why our troops are losing ground on the battlefield and losing thousands of miles is not our China. Soldiers are afraid of death, but because our combat effectiveness, as well as weapons and equipment, are far inferior to little devils!

But ......"

Speaking of this, Yang Jing paused again, and after a moment continued: "But! I believe that there are 40,000,000 people in China, and as long as all of us have the determination to die and dare to fight to the end with the little devils, then the final victory in this war will definitely belong to our great Chinese nation! ”

"Long live China! Long live the Chinese nation! ”

Yang Jing raised his arms and shouted, and the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Regiment in the audience were excited, and roared with red eyes and thick necks: "Long live China!" Long live the Chinese nation! ”

"The Tiger Ben group is invincible, kill! Kill! ——”

"The Tiger Ben Regiment swept through the enemy, kill! Kill! ——”

At this moment, a rapid sound of horses' hooves suddenly came from far and near.

"Drive!"

"Phew! ——”

A communication soldier who came from the city turned over and dismounted, and before he could reach him, he raised the telegram in his hand and shouted to Yang Jing: "Tuanza! Tuanza! Urgent information, urgent information! ”
