But what was even more shocked was Luo Rhuan, in the plan formulated by the Shandong Branch, the Jiaodong Peninsula was the focus of the attack, after the Japanese army was all transferred to the Taishan defense line, the Jiaodong Peninsula was left with a puppet army, the troops were empty, and the combat effectiveness was low, it was a good time for development, the Shandong Branch Bureau formulated a detailed plan, in addition to the Jiaodong troops commanded by Xu Syou, Chen Y Su Y commanded the first division of the New Fourth Army and part of the Eighth Route Army also to the Jiaodong Peninsula, preparing to launch a large-scale attack on the Jiaodong Peninsula and seize the entire Jiaodong. \\、0m//

But this situation completely disrupted the plan made by the sub-bureau, if these puppet troops flew the Kuomintang flag, then they could no longer attack the areas under their control, and the Kuomintang naturally controlled most of Jiaodong.

Luo Rhuan was still thinking about countermeasures, Wen Qiang had already finished speaking, Zhuang Jihua asked him to sit down, and then asked Xu Zuyi to continue to announce the current battle plan in the theater.

"On the Henan side, Gu Shoufu concentrated four divisions and one mixed brigade in Xinxiang, with a total strength of more than 70,000 people, and assembled two divisions in Jincheng, Shanxi, the purpose of which was to attract our army to attack with Xinxiang troops, and then Jincheng troops were dispatched to attack the flank of our army."

"In order to change the unfavorable situation of the Japanese army in North China, the Japanese army decided to transfer troops from Jiangnan, the Kwantung Army, and Nanyang to reinforce North China, but due to the long distance, only the Jiangnan troops may reach the Shandong battlefield in a short period of time, posing a threat to our army's attack on Shandong."

"In view of the current situation of the Japanese army, the theater command decided to launch an attack on the Japanese army before the arrival of Japanese reinforcements, seize Jinan, and capture the Shandong region south of the Yellow River."

"In order to achieve this goal, the theater decided that the entire Jiangbei theater should form five attack groups, with General Tang Enbo in charge of commanding the troops north of the Yellow River, which is the West Group, under the jurisdiction of the group, the 31st Group Army, the 5th Group Army, and the 102nd Army of the 49th Group Army; In addition, the Tang Huaiyuan Division of the Third Army joined the group, with a total strength of 300,000 troops, 800 tanks, 300 armored vehicles, 36 rocket artillery, and 1,600 artillery pieces of various kinds, which were provided by the Third Air Force Division for air cover. ”

"Tai'an Group, commander-in-chief Du Yuming, under the jurisdiction of the 50th Group Army, the 1st Group Army, and the 36th Group Army, with a total strength of 320,000 troops, 2,000 artillery pieces of various types, and 80 tanks."

"Linyi Group, commander-in-chief Guan Linzheng, under the jurisdiction of the 24th Group Army, the 47th Army, and the new 1st Division; The total strength is 280,000 and 1,800 artillery pieces of various kinds. ”

"Lubei Group, commander-in-chief Song Xilian, under the jurisdiction of the Second Group Army, the First Mechanized Group Army, the 101st Army of the 49th Army, and the 22nd Group Army. The total strength is 350,000 troops, 760 tanks, 330 armored vehicles, 3 rocket artillery battalions, 108 guns, and 3,700 artillery pieces of various kinds, which are provided by the 4th and 5th divisions of the Air Force. ”

"The formation of the Central Group, with Chen G as the commander-in-chief, is composed of the guerrilla corps, the new Eighth Army, and the new 110th Division, crossing the river in Heze, and there are fewer troops on this road, so the commander hopes that the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army can be strengthened to this road."

"The Bengbu Group was formed on the southern front, which was responsible for blocking the possible northward reinforcements of the Japanese army in the south of the Yangtze River, under the general command of General Sun Lianzhong, deputy commander of the theater, under the jurisdiction of the 15th Group Army, the Fourth Group Army, the 92nd Army, and the 46th Army; Deputy Commander Li Pinxian was in charge of commanding the 21st Group Army and the 17th Army, and was responsible for monitoring the Japanese forces around Anqing. ”

"The Qing Third Army, the Qing Fourth Army, the New First Army, and the New Sixth Army were all transferred north to Xuzhou to serve as strategic reserves."

"In this offensive, the Western Group and the Bengbu Group attracted the attention of the Japanese army in a defensive way and did not allow them to divide their forces. The Bengbu group must intercept the Japanese army south of the Huai River. ”

"General Du Yuming, your attack is a feint, and it only needs to attract the attention of the Japanese army to the Taishan defensive line, and it must not be able to draw troops to support the two lines."

"Lubei Group, General Song Xilian, the task of your unit is to destroy the Japanese troops concentrated on the north bank of the Yellow River near Liaocheng, pay attention, the first tank division of the Japanese army transferred from the Soviet Russian battlefield is also here."

"Don't worry, the Japanese tanks are thin-skinned tanks, and the Qiu madman will beat them all over the ground looking for teeth." Song Xilian's demeanor was relaxed, after fighting for so many years, what the Japanese tank was like, everyone knew very well in their hearts, since the bazooka began to fully equip the troops, the Japanese tanks never raised their heads on the battlefield.

"Don't take it lightly, I heard that the first division of this tank is equipped with German tanks, don't underestimate the enemy." Zhuang Jihua's tone was a little stern, and Song Xilian agreed with a smile and didn't take it to heart at all.

"After you defeated the Japanese army in Liaocheng, you immediately marched eastward, cut off the Jinpu line, and then crossed the Qi River and attacked Jinan from the north."

"The focus of the offensive is on the Linyi group, Guan Linzheng, your task is to capture Zhucheng as soon as possible, open the road to the Jiaodong Peninsula, and then attack along the Jiaoji line and attack Jinan from the southwest."

"When Song Xilian and Guan Linzheng attack Jinan from the north and northwest, Matsui Shigen can only draw troops from the Taishan defense line, so that the pressure on General Du Yuming will be reduced, and fighters will appear in Tai'an, General Du, you have to quickly break through the Taishan defense line and approach Jinan from the east."

"After our army began to attack Zhucheng, General Wen Qiang, the puppet army that withdrew to Jiaodong immediately all reversed, commanded by Sun Liangcheng, and besieged Qingdao."

"General Chen G, Pang Bingxun and Sun Dianying's puppet army, which are now stationed in Puyang, have also rebelled for the army, but there are two squadrons of the Japanese army in Puyang, and when you approach Puyang, Pang Bingxun and Sun Dianying will raise troops. After the capture of Puyang, Puyang was garrisoned by the two Pangsun divisions, and you continued to advance north. The Fifth Army will bypass Xinxiang and join you in attacking Anyang and encircling Gu Shoufu in Xinxiang. ”

"According to the order of the base camp, after our army launched an attack, General Wei Lihuang of Zhongtiao Mountain and General Liu Bocheng of the 89th Army of the Eighth Route Army will command the four armies and secretly advance westward to occupy Yuntai Mountain and the Changping line, thinking that they will be intercepted."

After Xu Zuyi finished speaking, Zhuang Jihua continued: "The plan has been read out, this plan has not been discussed with everyone, and any questions will be raised now." ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at Luo Rhuan: "Division Commander Luo, can the 115th Division come from Yimeng Mountain?" ”

This is what he is most worried about, if the GCD is let go of development in Shandong, the 115th Division will not be transferred out of Shandong, and Chen G will have to attack north alone, and more importantly, he reached an agreement with Chen G to hand over southern Hebei to GCD, according to this agreement, the Shandong Eighth Route Army must be transferred out of a part.

"Before receiving the central telegram, the troops had already dispersed, and at the moment only one brigade could be dispatched immediately, and the other two brigades needed four days to assemble." Luo Rhuan said.

Zhuang Jihua was overjoyed, and Luo Rhuan's attitude showed that he was willing to abide by the agreement reached at the beginning, so that the possibility of his plan being realized was greatly increased.

"Okay, very good, Chen G, your troops will attack in the frontal light pavilion and they will start to move a week later, at this stage, the Japanese army does not have the energy to care about you. In addition, in order to enhance the combat effectiveness of your unit, the theater command decided to transfer you 12 105 howitzers, 12 75 mountain guns, and some other supplies. ”

"It's pretty much the same," Chen G said with a smile: "You have to make people eat when you use people, Song Mengguo is a few minutes ahead of me in Jining, and after the war, I want to have your firepower and equipment, and I will already enter the city." ”

Song Xilian shook his head, not polite at all: "Impossible, your tactics are still stuck in the group charge, and there is no difference from the Northern Expedition era, and our current tactics are new tactics, which have been tested in actual combat for six years." As for you, in recent years, you have mainly been expanding your troops, fighting some guerrilla warfare, and the scale of the operation is not large, and the size of one brigade is considered large-scale. You have mastered too little of this tactical action of positional warfare. ”

Song Xilian's tone was a little disdainful, Chen G admitted in his heart that Song Xilian was right, but if he loses, he can't admit it, he sneered and shook his head: "I said Little Brother Song, why are you blind?" If we want to say that we may not have fought hundreds of thousands or millions of large-scale battles, but we have fought a lot of battles on the scale of divisions and above, let's just say that the central Hebei region, the devils have encircled and suppressed it several times, and that time was not a large-scale operation. ”

Chen G's words are a bit strong, after the New Fourth Army went north, the Jizhong army developed to the highest peak, there were about 80,000 people, when the Japanese army encircled and suppressed, but even so, it could not afford to fight positional warfare, not to mention the gap in firepower, the soldiers' tactical skills were several levels inferior to the opponent, the Eighth Route Army only had a few heavy artillery, the shells were scrap iron after the shells were fired, the Eighth Route Army's own arsenal could not make shells, and the Kuomintang's supplies came and went, so those heavy artillery can be said to have and can also be said to have none, like the New Fourth Army after changing its equipment in the third theater, Equipped with 105 howitzers, after several major battles in Jizhong, these heavy artillery turned out to be blown up after the shells.

In the operations of the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army, the most taboo was positional warfare, which was generally guerrilla warfare and less movement warfare; moreover, because they were under the watchful eye of the Japanese army, it was impossible for the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army to assemble on a large scale.

"Chen G, this is the tactical manual I have summarized," Zhuang Jihua immediately extinguished the possible sparks when he saw this, and handed the prepared booklet to Chen G, Guan Linzheng and Du Yuming's faces changed greatly when they saw it.

Who would have thought that Chen G smiled at Zhuang Jihua and did not answer: "Cultural Revolution, you are quite kind, and you still know the feelings of your classmates." To be honest, I have this thing, and I can recite it to you. However, our equipment and logistics can't afford to fight a battle like yours, and your three groups and one team are still a little useful, and we can't use any other firepower coverage, infantry and tank combination, and air-ground combination. ”

Zhuang Jihua glanced at Guan Linzheng and Du Yuming meaningfully, Du Yuming felt a slight heat on his face, but Guan Linzheng was nothing, just kept glaring at Chen G.

"Okay, if you have no opinion, just dismiss the meeting, I will give you three days, the first to start the attack is Guan Linzheng, then Song Xilian, and then Du Yuming, this time we will go the opposite." There was a sneer on the corner of Zhuang Jihua's mouth.

In past battles, Zhuang Jihua was the first to start every battle to lure the enemy's troops, and the real blow was always at the end. But this time, Zhuang Jihua decided to show the main target first, but Du Yuming's troops, who were tasked with luring the enemy, were the last to move.

"I really didn't expect them to say yes." Xu Zuyi looked at the backs of Chen G and Luo Rhuan, a little puzzled and a little excited. The weakest part of this plan is the Chen G group, but the strength is tight, Zhuang Jihua has to use the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army to supplement, but this move will transfer the 115th Division out of Shandong, weakening the strength of the Shandong GCD troops, Xu Zuyi is most worried that the GCD will not agree, and he didn't expect it to be so smooth.

Zhuang Jihua nodded noncommittally, and then asked, "Why are you afraid when they will arrive?" ”

"Evening." Xu Zuyi replied.

Zhuang Jihua nodded, said no more, turned to Song Yunfei and said, "The special forces will not participate in the war this time, let the brothers have a good rest, and the safety of the headquarters will be handed over to you." ”

Song Yunfei frowned slightly, the scale of the special forces battle this time was not large, and the losses were not large, but in the battle of northern Hubei, the losses of the special forces were too great, and they have not recovered so far.

"Commander, there are more than 300 special forces, and the replenishment of the Japanese army is through the Jinpu line, providing supplies from North China to Shandong, and I propose to send a small detachment to operate near Dexian." Song Yunfei was unwilling to do anything in such a large-scale offensive campaign, and the special forces, known as the army within the army, did not do anything in the slightest.

Zhuang Jihua looked at him, thought about it, nodded and agreed: "Okay, you can decide the plan of action, if the Japanese army in Dexian County is well defended, you can continue to the north, as long as the Jinpu line is blown up, I don't care about the rest." After speaking, he turned around to leave, and then added: "Tell them to pay attention to safety, this time, you don't go, you stay to train recruits." ”

After the Battle of Northern Hubei, the special forces were replenished with about 80 recruits, who had only been in the army for two months before entering the battlefield, and were not yet qualified special soldiers.

"Okay, I'll let Shi Shaoxian lead the team."

Shi Shaoxian cracked the case of Ji Feixiang, and after Zhao Hanjie died, he applied to return to the special forces, Zhuang Jihua agreed, and Lian Xiaosen went at the same time.

After almost a month of calming down the battlefield, with the transfer of the squadron, the battlefield began to undergo subtle changes. Each squadron was deployed according to the plan and assembled at the assembly point. On the third day after the meeting, Wen Qiang came to report, and the Qingdao secret service station reported that a wing of the Ninth Division had gone ashore in Qingdao.

According to Zhuang Jihua's estimates, the main fleet of the Japanese army was still in the South Seas, and there were not enough ships to carry the troops south of the Yangtze River, but he did not expect that the Japanese army requisitioned a large number of civilian ships in Shanghai, and even some of them were flat ships for inland shipping, and sent all the personnel and equipment of a wing at one time.

"Miscalculation" Zhuang Jihua miscalculated after receiving the information: "Order Guan Linzheng to act immediately, and the first battle will take Ju County." ”
