Chapter 295 was criticized

In addition to congratulating the eastward advance detachment on another beautiful battle, Yan'an, the headquarters, and the division headquarters all asked Xiao Siming and Wang Lushui to quickly join up with the brigade headquarters, cadres, and the five detachments and the Jinpu detachment led by Xiao Hua, integrate our army's forces in the Jilu border area, and prepare to deal with the heavy siege of the Japanese Fifth Division.

In the telegram from Yan'an, the headquarters, and the division headquarters, it was said that in the afternoon, the Beiping Japanese pseudo-radio broadcast was overheard, and the North China Front of the Japanese army invading China offered a huge reward, offering a reward of 200 silver dollars for Xiao Siming's head. Anyone who can provide the Japanese army with the accurate whereabouts of Xiao Siming's department and assist the Japanese army in killing Xiao Siming will be rewarded with 100,000 oceans.

In the telegram, the chiefs reminded Xiao Siming to strengthen the security forces and ensure personal safety.

Director Luo of the division headquarters was a meticulous person, and in the reply call, he asked Xiao Siming to report in detail on the situation of the battle of Luokou again, re-evaluate the results of the battle, and find out why the Japanese army was so aggressive and offered a huge reward of 2 million silver dollars!

This is true, why are the Japanese army so crazy? What stimulated General Shouichi Terauchi of the North China Front Army to be so irritable and out of shape? Could it be that the Battle of Luokou completely crippled the 21st Wing?

When Xiao Siming boarded, he felt that the old devil in the temple was slamming the door, and he wanted Lao Tzu's life, and he was reluctant to spend money, and he set a reward of only 2 million silver dollars! Damn, is Lao Tzu's life only worth 2 million silver dollars?

Others think that the reward of 2 million silver dollars is outrageously high, and Xiao Siming, this guy, still thinks that the old devil in the temple slammed the door, and the reward was too small, which is really strange!

Xiao Siming called Zheng Xiuchuan, Zhao Xiuchuan and others, carefully reviewed the situation on the battlefield at that time, and made repeated calculations to find out the real losses of the 21st Wing.

The 21st Wing is the absolute main infantry wing of the Japanese army, the elite of the elite and the main force of the main force, and has always acted as the vanguard on the battlefield of aggression against China. This wing, from officers to soldiers, is an old devil, and the tactical quality of individual soldiers is extremely high. If they were to launch an attack, those little devils would be able to shoot while running with bullets, and the accuracy of their shots would be extremely high, and the proportion of sharpshooters in the troops would be much higher than that of other Japanese troops.

If such a well-equipped and powerful army is really completely disabled, the results will be too great, and it will not be the same as the elimination of ordinary Japanese troops!

As soon as he thought that the 21st Wing of the Japanese Army might be completely disabled, Xiao Siming's blood suddenly gushed upward, and a sense of accomplishment arose!

After carefully deliberating and calculating, Xiao Siming sent a report to the division headquarters, the headquarters, and Yan'an again, reporting in detail on the battlefield situation at that time, including how many explosives were used to blow up the bridge, how many rapid-fire guns were fired when hitting the Japanese search squadron, how many tank guns were fired, how many light and heavy machine guns were used to cover the Japanese troops on the opposite bank, how many infantry guns were used by the infantry artillery battalion to participate in the battle, how many high-explosive shells and poison gas bombs were fired per shell, and how the impact point was calculated. If the judgment is correct, the 21st Wing of the 21st Infantry Brigade of the 5th Division, the elite of the Japanese invasion of China, has been completely disabled under the triple attack of our army's firepower, bombing bridges, and poison gas bombs. In the future, the 21st Wing, which will appear on the battlefield, is no longer the original 21st Wing, which was invincible all the way and invincible, but the 21st Wing reorganized by the Japanese army, and its combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced!

Only when the 21st Wing completely crippled the hearts and minds of the Japanese army, Terauchi Shouichi would be ashamed and offer a reward of 2 million yuan for Xiao Siming's head. That's what makes sense!

Otherwise, Terauchi Shouichi is a commander-in-chief of the Japanese army, this is another war, not a dueling ground to resolve personal grudges, Terauchi Shouichi can't be so out of shape with Xiao Siming, who was originally unknown, to give such a huge reward!

At this time, the leaders of the division headquarters, the headquarters, and the Yan'an headquarters called back one after another, asking Xiao Siming to be more vigilant and strictly guard against the crazy retaliation of the Japanese Fifth Division. The head of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army even said in a telegram that if necessary, in order to ensure that the combat effectiveness of the eastward advance detachment would not suffer heavy losses, Xiao Siming and Wang Lushui were allowed to abandon the Hebei and Lubian areas, and lead the troops to withdraw to the Taihang Mountains or Jinchaji, so as to avoid the frenzied retaliation of the Japanese army, and then return to the plains to carry out the task of advancing eastward into the Luzhong Mountains.

This is the chiefs who love our army, the newly-born main force, and do not want the troops to suffer heavy losses!

Xiao Siming did not think so, the Great Plains was conducive to the movement of the Japanese mechanized troops, and it was also conducive to the operation of the Eighth Route Army, which had 12 tanks, 8 armored vehicles, 100 vehicles, cavalry battalions, and baggage battalions. Xiao Siming is looking forward to the attack of the Fifth Division, and he is also counting on getting some field artillery and mountain artillery from the Fifth Division, and forming a field artillery battalion or mountain artillery battalion for the artillery regiment!

If there is no field artillery and mountain artillery, the artillery regiment is not called an artillery regiment!

Isn't the reason why the little devils are horizontal is because they have planes in the sky, warships in the water, and tanks and artillery on the ground? If the Eighth Route Army also has these things, what else will the little devil do?

From the first shot of the Nanchang uprising, our army had its own artillery. From then on, from the ten-year domestic revolutionary war to the Eighth Route Army's northward march to resist Japan, artillery played a major role.

The eastward advance detachment now has an antiaircraft artillery battalion, an infantry artillery battalion, and a rapid-fire artillery battery, but what it lacks is long-range strike artillery fire.

Xiao Siming led his troops to fight so many beautiful battles, but because they were all ambushes, attacks, and blocking operations, the combat targets were all Japanese infantry squads, squadrons, and brigades. The only two encounters with the Japanese army's wing-level troops were still very successful, but in the Nianzigou Resistance Battle and today's Luokou Battle, Xiao Siming's troops did not have the opportunity to clean up the battlefield, and they did not have the opportunity to capture the Japanese army's mountain artillery and field artillery.

Artillery is the god of war, forming a powerful artillery unit, pulling up an army that can carry out a strategic decisive battle with the little devils, defeating the Japanese army as soon as possible, and ending the war of resistance victoriously, is naturally the greatest wish of Xiao Siming, who has crossed the soul.

Now, the Fifth Division, which has a field artillery wing, is here, Xiao Siming has already cheered in his heart, waiting for the opportunity to find an opportunity to engage the fifth wing of the Japanese field artillery, get some artillery, where is it possible to lead his troops to retreat west!

Xiao Siming immediately sent a telegram to the division headquarters, headquarters, and Yan'an, and reported to the leaders again that the eastward advance detachment was confident and determined not to be surrounded and eaten by the Japanese army, and also had the confidence and determination to adopt flexible and mobile tactics to deal with the Japanese army when it was besieged by heavy troops, mobilize the Japanese army, exhaust the Japanese army, and drag down the Japanese army, so that it finally had to end the heavy force sweep.

After this telegram was issued, the Yan'an General Headquarters sent a telegram back severely criticizing Xiao Siming, once again affirming that the nature of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression was a protracted war, and that it was necessary to take the road of mobilizing the masses and strengthening its strength, and that it was very dangerous not to be hot-headed and complacent when it won a war, to underestimate the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army, and to imagine that with the main force of the eastward advance detachment of only a few thousand people, it would be able to confront the Japanese army's Fifth Division!

The directive telegram from the Yan'an General Headquarters said that the most urgent task of our army in the Jilu border is to quickly organize and mobilize the army and people in the base areas and make good preparations for the heavy sweep of the anti-Japanese army. Do not have the illusion that you can defeat the Japanese Fifth Division, which has aircraft, tanks, and artillery, on the vast plains of the Jilu border region, but should divide into two fronts, inside and outside. The inner line troops mainly contained and delayed the Japanese army, adopted guerrilla tactics to attack and harass the Japanese army, and resolutely could not fall into the encirclement of the Japanese army; From now on, the troops on the outer line must move rapidly and move covertly to near a certain key point that the enemy has to rescue, and when the Fifth Division is slaughtered in the Jilu border area, the troops on the outer line will make a decisive attack and capture the target point, forcing the Fifth Division to rush to the rescue in order to relieve the siege of the Hebei-Lu border base area.

The Yan'an General Headquarters made it very clear in the telegram that Xiao Hua would be responsible for setting up a new military and political committee in the Jilu Border Region to give unified command to the Jilu Border Region in the struggle against the enemy. Xiao Hua was instructed to unify and reorganize the five detachments of the 115th Division, the Jinpu Detachment of the 129th Division, and the eastward advance detachment of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army, the Yanshan Independent Regiment, the Wudi Independent Regiment, and the Deping Independent Regiment in the Hebei-Shandong Border to form the eastward column of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army and hold the Hebei-Shandong border area. The eastward advance detachment led by Wang Lushui and Xiao Siming, with the exception of the Fourth Regiment, carried out combat missions on the outer front, and the operational goal was to lead the Japanese Fifth Division to the Pinghan Railway or the Longhai Railway, so that the Japanese army would not have the opportunity to stay, burn, kill, and loot in our base areas.

After the eastward advance detachment completed its combat mission on the outer front, Yan'an instructed the telegram saying that it would continue to carry out the eastward advance mission and create a consolidated base area in the Yimeng Mountains.

Yan'an's instruction telegram also said that our army in central and southern Hebei and the Sulu-Henan detachment that had advanced into the Huxi region all had the task of assisting our army in the combat mission of the Jilu border, and all of them were aimed at repelling the heavy siege of the Japanese army!

This telegram poured a basin of cold water on Xiao Siming's head, making him calm down instantly.

Yes, the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army is a behemoth with eight wings, with high tactical quality and powerful firepower, if it is stuck by them, the sky is the Japanese plane, and the ground is the rolling iron flow of the Fifth Division, even if Xiao Siming has more whimsy in his head, I am afraid it will be difficult to get out. Haven't you seen the brutality of the Japanese army in dealing with our army in Jizhong in 1942 during the 1942 Jizhong Sweep? At that time, the troops drawn by the Japanese army were all third-rate public security division units, and they were all drawn from various units to put together a patchwork, and there was no comparison with the strong and domineering main force of the Fifth Division.

Think about the Fifth Division's sneak attack on Pingxingguan and triggering the Battle of Taiyuan, and then think about the Battle of Taierzhuang, when a brigade of the Sakamoto Detachment of the Fifth Division attacked Linyi and fought fiercely with Pang Bingxun's Third Army, and later forced the Fifth Theater to twice transfer Zhang Zizhong's 59th Army to aid Linyi, and finally transferred a brigade of Miao Zhengliu's 57th Army and Tang Enbo's cavalry regiment to help. In the end, the commander of the Fifth Division, Itagaki Seishiro, personally went to the front line of Linyi to supervise the battle, personally led two infantry brigades and part of the artillery to fight against Pang Bingxun's department and Zhang Zizhong's troops, and let Sakamoto Shunqin personally lead four infantry brigades and some combat vehicles, armored vehicles, and artillery to pass through the defensive positions of the Chinese army, and rescue the remnants of the Laigu detachment of the 10th Division on the front line of Taierzhuang.

Whoever underestimates the combat effectiveness of the 5th Division of the Japanese Army will be unlucky!

Xiao Siming was shocked, feeling that he was indeed a little carried away by the victory, forgetting that his eastward advance detachment was just a new army, if it was really against the Japanese Fifth Division, and the two sides launched an offensive and defensive force, the outcome of the battle was destined to not be very good.

Of course, this is just the current situation, and Xiao Siming also knows very well in his heart that if his eastward advance detachment is tempered on the battlefield for another year or two, and then faces the Fifth Division, it will be a tough encounter, and the same strength may not necessarily have the upper hand. It's just not right now! (To be continued.) )
