Chapter 338: Battle of Northern Guangdong (1)
"Director, this Li Jing is not good!"
It seems that this Li Jing is here to greet and discuss the matter of assisting in defense, but in fact, it is with an obvious sense of demonstration.
"The Central Army, after all, the heart is high, and it is normal to look down on us. However, our troops have just experienced several battles, and we need time to reorganize our troops, and when the troops are integrated, we will not be afraid of this 276th regiment.
It's just an ordinary infantry regiment of the Central Army, I haven't paid attention to it yet, and if I want to fight, I have to fight Anze's Japanese army. ”
For An Ze, who was stuck in the Taiyue Mountains, Li Hai was uncomfortable to look at, which was equivalent to a nail, and it was not pleasing to the eye no matter how you looked at it.
"Director, it is said that there is a Japanese army brigade in Anze, and there is also a regiment of the Imperial Cooperative Army." Mao Hong reminded.
"Afraid of what? Could it be that the Japanese army came out together every time? The next key point is to keep an eye on the situation of Anze's Japanese puppet army, and when the troops here are put in order, I will first find Anze's Japanese army. ”
In fact, Li Hai still wanted to return to Qinshui, because the location of Qinshui was undoubtedly better, with the Changzhi area to the east, Jinnan to the west, and the Zhongtiao Mountain area to the southwest.
"Director, Director Zhang of the 197 Brigade, as well as most of the cadres of the Seventh Regiment and the Ninth Regiment are here, this is not a matter, is it possible to return the soldiers of the Seventh Regiment and the Ninth Regiment to them?" Mao Hong worried.
"How is that possible?" Li Hai said coldly, "Don't worry about this, first set up the shelves according to the establishment of the six battalions, and scatter the soldiers of the 7th and 9th Regiments of the Decisive Death Regiment in each battalion."
How can we vomit out what we eat in our stomachs? ”
Anze was not a large county, the population of the entire county was only 60,000 or 70,000, and it would not be easy for Lehi to expand his army if he returned the soldiers of the two regiments to them.
This is also the reason why Lehi wanted to be able to soak in the water.
The population of Qinshui is not large, only about 100,000, but Yangcheng, Jincheng and Gaoping are all counties with a population of more than 200,000.
Moreover, Anze is not only Li Hai's Eighth Regiment of Decisive Death, but also the Tenth Guerrilla Regiment, a Decisive Death Column, and the Japanese Puppet Army, so it is not so easy to recruit soldiers.
"But will they agree? If they don't get these soldiers back, there will be no one left in these two regiments! ”
"What does that have to do with us? It is a good thing that the political workers of these two regiments are not punished, and if it were not for us, the two regiments would have to become part of the Jin Sui army.
Ignore them, we adapt ours, they won't stay here for long. ”
The reason why Li Hai was so sure was because he knew that with the December Incident, it would not be long before the 386th Brigade and the Special Service Group of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters would enter the Taiyue area.
The historical Taiyue Military Region will also be established in a few months.
As for how Zhang Fengge and the others were handled, Li Hai did not dare to guarantee it, after all, he had been captured and lost the strength of two regiments, which was not a small crime.
Even if Lehi saved them, it couldn't erase their previous mistakes, and someone had to take responsibility for such a big loss.
。。。。。。
"Deputy Division Commander Leng, according to what you mean, wouldn't it be that we can let go of our hands and feet this time?"
On the night of December 29, with several days of all-out transportation, the 54th Army had arrived in Shaoguan, of which the 14th and 40th Divisions, which were the vanguard, had already arrived at Qujiang.
Just rest for one night, and tomorrow you can go into battle.
It was Zhang Qiong, the commander of the 50th Division, who spoke.
"If the analysis is not wrong, it is true, but how to fight is still up to the military seat." Leng Jie naturally didn't strongly ask Chen Lie to do this, he just said his opinion.
"Junza, if it's really as Deputy Division Commander Leng said, we may really be able to fight with open hands and feet!" Que Hanqian was also a little eager to try.
"Bo'an, your suggestion has made this group of people ready to move!" Chen Lie pointed at Leng Jie and said with a smile.
"The military seat, I think that with the strength of our 54th Army, there is no need to fight timidly.
As a rare elite unit of the national army, the 74th Army and the 5th Army dare to go head-to-head with the Japanese army, how can our 54th Army be willing to be left behind?
That would not only lose the face of our 54th Army, but also the military seat and Chief Chen's face would not look good at that time, right? ”
"Gotcha, don't use the agitation method in front of my eyes!" Chen Lie said angrily, "Since you have said everything, let's talk about how to fight."
It's time for you, the kobold strategist, to play your role, don't just provoke our generals, it's not okay if you don't come out with dry goods. ”
"Since the military seat has been ordered, it is better to obey the order than to be respectful!"
In front of these people, Leng Jie naturally doesn't have to be so polite, in the eyes of everyone, Leng Jie is more like the chief of staff of the 54th Army.
"The Japanese army attacking northern Guangdong, with all 30,000 people of the 18th Division as the main force in the middle, attacked Wengyuan along the Conghua Liangkou and Fogang directions;
On the right flank, the Sakurai Brigade and 15,000 people of the Guards Mixed Brigade and the Nemoto, Kato, Horikawa, and Kumanaka Kai divisions were organized into the Japanese Guards Division, and attacked Wengyuan (where the headquarters of the 12th Army was located) along the line of Zengcheng, Longmen, and Xinfeng;
With a brigade of the 104th Division, plus 15,000 people including the Matsuokano Wing and the Nakano Masaki Brigade as the left flank, they attacked Yinzhan Pass and Yuantan along the Guangdong-Hanzhou Railway, and directly attacked Qujiang through Yingde.
This deployment of the Japanese army was obviously intended to break through in the middle and sweep the two flanks to achieve the goal of occupying Qujiang. ”
"We all know this, Deputy Division Commander Leng, you just say how to fight!" Que Hanqian said.
"My suggestion is to hit the left flank of the Japanese army, that is, the 104th Division, and find a way to eat some of it, if it can be completely annihilated, it would be better!" Leng Jie said.
"There are more than 10,000 Japanese troops in this force, are you sure you can eat them?" Que Hanqian said in a deep voice.
"If it were other Japanese troops, it might not be, but the 104th Division was possible, because it was formed as a reserve of the 4th Division.
Maybe you don't know about the 4th Division, although this Japanese army is a permanent division, its combat effectiveness is not good. Because the 4th Division and the 104th Division were formed by soldiers from Osaka, the Japanese army here had a strong commercial atmosphere.
If we were to surround this division, there was a high probability that it would be inflicted heavy damage. Leng Jie suggested.
"Are you saying that the combat effectiveness of this 104th Division is not strong, can I understand it that way. It would have been easy if we had just repelled this Japanese army? Que Hanqian asked.
"That's understandable." Leng Jie was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"If this is the case, I think that one division can be used to storm the left flank of the Japanese army, and then cut off the retreat of the Japanese army in the center, and the front is to attack the Japanese army in the center with the strength of three divisions.
If you can surround the Japanese army in the middle and eat a strand, it will undoubtedly have the best effect.
The Japanese army in Guangzhou has the strongest combat effectiveness of the 18th Division, and if this unit can be disabled, even if the Japanese army wants to reinforce Guinan, its strength will not be too strong. ”
