Chapter 216: Battle Clouds Gather (2)

Jiangshan's battle plan is definitely bold enough. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoIf this battle plan is implemented, the troops of the entire Ninth Theater, including Xue Yue, the commander of the Ninth Theater, are all bait for the Falcon Special Operations Brigade!

This battle plan was opposed by almost everyone except Xue Yue, and Luo Zhuoying, commander-in-chief of the 19th Group Army, almost slapped the table with Jiang Shan. If it weren't for the fact that Jiang Shan had always been fighting at the forefront of the Anti-Japanese War, and there were thousands of Japanese soldiers under his hands, he would have almost thought that this guy was a spy sent by the Japanese. According to the ideas of Luo Zhuoying, Shang Zhen and others, they want to push the Falcon Special Operations Brigade to the front line, at least the firepower of Jiangshan's Duliu Brigade is second to none in the entire national army system, and it should not suffer a big loss if it resists the Japanese head-on.

Yang Sen, commander-in-chief of the 27th Group Army, and Wang Lingji, commander-in-chief of the 30th Group Army, also had a very special idea: the units of the 6th Independent Brigade were deployed around the headquarters of the commander of the theater, and among the three main combat regiments, the 1st and 2nd regiments were firmly in the Jinjing area, in case the Japanese army occupied Jinjing and directly faced Changsha; The Third Regiment is a guard regiment directly under the Theater Command, which is directly under the command of the Theater Command and is responsible for the security work of the Theater Command. The reason for the two is simple, the most elite troops, of course, should be placed in the most important places. Where is the most important thing when the enemy is coming? Theater Command, of course!

Fortunately, Xue Yue is not a fool. How to make good use of the Sixth Independent Brigade, Li Zongren of the Fifth Theater has already set an example for himself. Putting aside the strong offensive ability of the Duliu Brigade, instead let them do the defense they are not good at, if this kind of thing is spread, everyone else's big teeth will laugh off. As for the security work of the headquarters of his theater commander, he subconsciously ignored it. If the Japanese army broke through the outer defense line and hit the entrance of the headquarters, then it would be a big limit. With the impact of the Japanese army, two more independent 6th brigades are not enough.

However, there are still people who raise their hands and feet in favor of Jiangshan's battle plan. These people are the commanders of several regiments of the Falcon Special Operations Brigade. At the beginning, they were really afraid that Jiangshan's head would be hot, and they would pull the troops to the frontal defense line to resist the devils, which was simply to knock an egg on the stone, except for the chicken flying egg, at most it could splash the stone with an egg white and egg yolk, and it would not cause any damage to it at all. It is not easy for the falcon to have today's situation, if it fights such a vicious battle, the lamination of the skin is light, it is very likely to hurt the muscles and bones, and it will collapse. Fortunately, Jiangshan's battle plan was released in time, so that their hearts fell back to their stomachs peacefully.

On September 14, 1939, the 106th Division of the Japanese Army in northern Jiangxi took the lead in launching a diversion offensive. The Chinese defenders in this direction, 3 armies, 7 armies resisted under the command of the former enemy commander-in-chief, Luo Zhuoying.

Luo Zhuoying's deployment in the direction of Gao'an is: the 58th Army of the First Group Army of the Yunnan Army guards the line from Gaoyou City to Xiangfuguan; The 60th Army guarded the auspicious Fuguan to the Guxian line; The 32nd Army of the 19th Group Army (formerly the Jin Army) defended the Jinjiang Estuary to Gaoyou City and the southern shore of the Jinjiang River; The 49th Army of the Northeast Army and the 74th Army of the Central Army controlled the vicinity of Shanggao. There are also 30 armies of the 30th Group Army (Sichuan Army) and the base of Wang Ling.

On the night of September 14, the Japanese first attacked the positions of the 184th Division of the 60th Army stationed at Huibu. The next day, the positions of the 184th Division were broken through. After the Japanese army captured Huibu, the troops of the 106th Division divided into two routes: one to the west of Yinshan Village and Luofang, and the other to the village of Zhacun and Shuikou Gannan. One route was to attack the position of the 32nd Army by Dacheng and Drum Tower to the east of Gao'an. On the 17th, the Japanese army in the south occupied Shuikougan and Zhangshuling successively; The Japanese army that advanced westward occupied Luofang and ruled the city, and then also turned to the south. On the 18th, the Japanese army occupied the village front street, the diagonal bridge and the Xiangfuguan in the north of Gao'an, completed the encirclement of Gao'an from three sides, and formed an encirclement of the 60th Army and the 58th Army with the Japanese troops on the front line of Huibu. When the situation was very critical, the 60th Army rushed out of the unfinished encirclement of the Japanese army from Qianjie and assembled in the direction of Yifeng. The 58th Army fought and retreated, crossed the Jinjiang River on the night of the 18th, and moved west towards the Lingjiang Estuary, forming a new defensive line with the 60th Army assembled at Yifeng from south to north. The 32nd Army abandoned Gao'an. On the 19th, the Japanese army occupied Goan. After Xue Yue learned of the loss of Gao'an, he strictly ordered the 32nd Army to recapture the place, and at the same time sent the 74th Army to reinforce it.

On the 20th, the Japanese 11th Army ordered the 106th Division to cover the left side of the back with one part of the 9th Theater of Operations after eliminating the defenders of the 9th Theater near Gao'an, and the main force entered the vicinity of Xiushui and Sandu to cut off the rear route of the 30th Army and the Hunan-Hubei-Jiangxi border area. Accordingly, the 106th Division of the Japanese Army carried out defensive operations in the southwest area of Fengxin with the Sae Detachment, and drove to Wuning with one brigade, while the main force assembled near Shangfu and prepared to advance westward. The 1st Division of the 32nd Army took the opportunity to cross the Jinjiang River north by night on the 21st, repelled the Japanese army, and recaptured Gao'an on the 22nd.

Looking at the battle reports that came like snowflakes, Jiang Shan, Liang Jianbin and others all looked dignified. Okamura Ninji was determined to completely exterminate the Chinese army in the Ninth Theater this time. 6th Division, 33rd Division, 101st Division, 106th Division...... In addition, there are three brigades, plus part of the navy and air force, totaling about 100,000 people!

According to the comparison of the combat effectiveness of the Chinese and Japanese armies in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, if you want to confront the 100,000 well-equipped, well-trained, and menacing Japanese elites, you need at least 300,000 to 400,000 soldiers of the national army!

"Jiangshan, this time the situation is serious! Okamura Ningji, this old devil, this is trying to swallow the Ninth War Zone in one bite! Looking at the situation map of friend and foe hanging on the wall of the war room, Liang Jianbin said worriedly.

Jiang Shan tilted his head to look at Liang Jianbin with some surprise, and asked with a smile, "What?" Scared? Do you have times when Lao Liang is afraid? ”

To the surprise of the country, Liang Jianbin actually nodded and admitted it!

However, seeing Jiang Shan's surprised eyes, Liang Jianbin still smiled bitterly and whispered: "Do you think I'm afraid of death?" From participating in the revolution in 31 years to the present, the battles I have fought, large and small, are not 1,000 but 800, if it weren't for good luck, my life would have been thrown into the grass during the Long March. What is there to be afraid of crawling out of the pile of dead people? ”

Seeing that Jiang Shan's eyes were becoming more and more confused, he paused, and said worriedly: "What I'm afraid of is this battle, if there is another mistake, then it will be a big trouble!" How important the location of Changsha is, you don't need to say that you also know, if we really lose Changsha, I'm afraid we won't have a chance to turn over. ”

His answer stunned Jiang Shan. Jiang Shan didn't expect that Liang Jianbin would be worried about this problem, but he immediately chuckled, patted Liang Jianbin on the shoulder, and said firmly: "Don't worry!" Changsha will not be lost, with us here, the little devils want to gain a foothold in China, but there is no door! ”

While the two of them were talking, the correspondent Tian Xiaoniu shouted outside the door: "Report!" ”

"Come in!" Jiang Shan straightened his face and shouted towards the door.

"Report to the brigade commander, the latest information from a reconnaissance team!" Tian Xiaoniu handed the report to Jiang Shan and walked out with interest. The brigade commander and the deputy brigade commander must have something to discuss, and staying here by themselves will only make them feel inconvenient to speak.

After Tian Xiaoniu went out, Jiang Shan said to Liang Jianbin with a smile: "A group of these guys, I have already told them that the camera acts and the camera acts, and the battlefield situation changes rapidly, so there is no need to report everything." These boys just don't listen, the reconnaissance team has only been out for a day, what important information can they have? ”

As he spoke, he began to look down at the battle report in his hand. It's just that his voice is getting lower and lower, and his face is getting more and more ugly.

"Traces of Japanese troops were found on the west side of Yuelu Mountain, about the size of a brigade. Because the Japanese guard post was placed relatively far away, and there was no Japanese follow-up behind it, there was no way to reconnoiter for the time being, and a reconnaissance team of a regiment was trying to find a way to get in and get close to investigate. Jiang Shan said in a deep voice.

Liang Jianbin was also taken aback: "A regiment just released the reconnaissance team the day before yesterday, and there is a movement of the Japanese army today?" He walked to the map, looked at it carefully for a while, his face changed, and said, "The reconnaissance team is marching on foot, and it shouldn't be able to go far in two days." According to the calculation of time, they are at most tens of kilometers away from a group! In other words, the first regiment and the Japanese army are very likely to encounter in advance in the area of Yuelu Mountain? ”

Jiang Shan's face became more and more gloomy: "I'm not worried about this!" Yuelu Mountain is only a dozen kilometers away from Changsha and already belongs to the theater defense center. If there are other Japanese troops following them, then there will be big trouble! ”

Jiang Shan's words made Liang Jianbin also gasp, if this Japanese army came in by mistake, the matter would be easy to solve, but if they came to the headquarters of the commander of the Ninth Theater, then the problem would be serious.

Thinking of this, Jiang Shan couldn't sit still for a moment, and hurriedly shouted outside the door: "Tian Xiaoniu, order the signal corps, immediately send a report to the headquarters of the commander of the Ninth Theater!" On the periphery of Changsha, traces of Japanese troops were found on the west side of Yuelu Mountain, reminding them to do a good job in the defense of the commander's headquarters! ”

Immediately afterward, he continued to order: "Order a regiment, send two more reconnaissance teams, no matter what, find a way for me to paste them!" Pay close attention to the movements of this Japanese army and find a way to find out their combat intentions! Pay attention to see if there are any other Japanese troops following behind! ”
