After the applause, Commander Lu continued: "Comrades, although the achievements are gratifying, the challenges we face are also extremely strong. We are now the grandson monkey who ran into the belly of the Iron Fan Princess, and if we are not careful, we will be digested by entering the house. In order to send our army to the heart of the enemy's invasion, the commander did not hesitate to send 500,000 or 600,000 troops to set up a stage for us to sing and sing. ”

"Commander, don't worry, now the Japanese army has transferred more than half of the troops in the central part of the northeast to the front line, as long as the commander's side does not relax, there will be no problems on our side, and we are very confident in all of us in this battle." Li Yanlu, the political commissar of Yiye, said confidently.

"It's good to have confidence, Commander Han Yunhua judged that after this period of rapid development, our army will usher in a period of difficulty, and the Japanese army will definitely mobilize a large army to encircle and suppress us after seeing the strength of our army, so it is difficult for us to defend the big cities and counties, because the enemy has aircraft, artillery and tanks, and we only have simple light weapons. Therefore, the commander ordered us to carry out the 'ant move' plan, that is, the whole army immediately withdrew the logistics baggage, field hospitals, and other troops to the deep mountains and dense forests, and set up secret camps in the mountainous areas with difficult terrain. In addition, all the materials and factories in the occupied counties and districts were emptied, those that could not be moved were secretly buried on the spot, all the grain that could be taken away was taken away, and those that could not be taken were given to the local people. All the mines were blown up, the railroads were unplugged, the locomotives were used when they were useful, and they were blown up when they were used up. In a word, we must empty all the counties and cities we occupy now, just like the ants moved, and not even a single screw will be left for Japan to enter. In addition, it is better for the large troops to withdraw from the occupied areas, but we cannot run away without firing a shot, this is not the style of our Inner Mongolia Military Region, the commander instructed us to immediately mobilize the masses to build fortifications from now on, use all the captured ash steel bars and sleepers, and build all the county towns into pillboxes. In the words of the commander, we must transform every county town we occupy into a meat grinder, so that the little devils will have to pay a heavy price for every city they occupy. In the end, the large army had to jump out of the enemy's encirclement, and then enter the secret base area for repair and training, leaving only a part of the small force to continue its activities and wait for the order of the total northeast. Lu Zhengcao faithfully gave Han Yunhua's order.

"Yes!" All the thousands of troops had almost no opinion on Han Yunhua's order, and they all knew the young chief's military command level.

"In addition, the commander has proposed a general tactical policy for us, and as for the specific ones, we have to sum them up. The little devils can't gather many troops in a short period of time, so we should not have much pressure in half a month, but once it exceeds half a month, the pressure will inevitably multiply, so we must complete the transfer of materials and the construction of city defense within half a month. However, there are a lot of thousands of fighters in the original Anti-Japanese Federation, you are familiar with the terrain, there should be no big problem in completing the task, and they all talk about whether there are any difficulties, if there are no difficulties, we will disperse, and time does not wait. ”

"No," the main leaders said in unison.

"Alright, adjourn the meeting!"

The news of the large-scale construction of fortifications by Lu Zhengcao's headquarters could not be concealed from the Japanese army at all, and General Yamada Otozo soon received a report from the intelligence department. In his opinion, tens of thousands of squadrons are not terrible, what is terrible is that these squadrons hide in the mountains and mountains like voles and hide in the countryside and fields, and if you want to completely exterminate such a squadron, you need to dispatch at least ten times the enemy's troops, and even more.

But now the stupid squadron is competing to gather its troops together to fight positional warfare, offensive and defensive warfare and attrition warfare with the Empire, which is exactly what Yamada Otozo wants. In this way, only a similar number of troops would be needed to completely wipe out this Chinese army.

On the one hand, General Yamada praised the bravery of the squadron in the newspapers, and even openly called Lu Zhengcao's unit the only warrior in China, and on the other hand, he stepped up his time to mobilize troops to drive to the positions of Duck Rack and Lishugou.

The battle on the periphery of the northeast is still continuing, but both Han Yunhua and Yamada B know that the battle on the periphery is basically meaningless, and if it continues, it will only increase casualties, and it is impossible for the Inner Mongolia Military Region to take any advantage from the South Manchurian battlefield, and the Inner Mongolia Military Region will not want to move even if Japan enters the Inner Mongolia Military Region, and the reason why the two sides have not withdrawn their troops now is entirely because of the fighting in the hinterland of the northeast.

The Inner Mongolia Military Region did not want General Yamada to mobilize troops from the northeast border area to reinforce the northeast hinterland, but General Yamada was afraid of luring the wolf into the room again, so the two sides were still facing each other in the northeast border area. However, it can be clearly seen that the battle between the two sides has lost its previous passion, although it is still fierce, it is far from tragic, and the withdrawal of troops seems to be not far away.

On May 18, 1942, at the same time that the Soviet Union's flight unit to aid China arrived in Guisui, Lieutenant General Yukio Kasahara, chief of staff of the Japanese Kwantung Army, issued an order to encircle and suppress Lu Zhengcao's headquarters, and the 108th Division and the 144th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade directly drove into the duck frame position 150 kilometers north of Jiaohe.

In order to successfully complete the mission this time and eliminate Lu Zhengcao's headquarters, the Kwantung Army Headquarters specially mobilized almost all the bombers and fighters that could be mobilized to enter the battle together, and even the Zero Aviation Brigade, which had been hidden by them for nearly half a year, was also thrown into battle.

Although Lu Zhengcao's unit had lost almost all air supremacy, and their only 25 antiaircraft machine guns had been completely destroyed by the Japanese bomber groups in less than two hours after they were put into battle, this did not prevent Lu Zhengcao's unit from striking at the enemy's insight.

Lu Zhengcao's department had long been aware of these problems, so it was planned that all the main positions would be composed in the form of reinforced concrete pillboxes and trenches. In addition, a large number of air-raid shelters were built in each position, and although the number of firefights each time they went up was small, they were basically automatic firepower, which caused heavy casualties to the attacking Japanese troops.

However, as far as the situation on the entire battlefield is concerned, the Japanese did take the initiative from the very beginning, and Lu Zhengcao had already ordered more than half of the regular troops and all the logistical recruits to withdraw to Laoyeling, Weihuling, Daqingshan, Nitouling, and Qing'an Forest Farm half a month ago. In the center of the battlefield, only 120,000 of the most elite troops remained, Lu Zhengcao knew the commander's intention to do this, although it is indeed necessary to kill and injure the enemy into the living forces, but more importantly, the commander should let the people of the entire Northeast see hope, our Northeast of China has returned to the Northeast, only in this way can the PLA get the trust and help of the people in the short term.

Whether it was Lu Zhengcao's headquarters or the Japanese attacking troops, the casualties on both sides were very large. However, both sides have a firm reason to fight, so both sides are holding on.

Han Yunhua, who returned to Tongliao, was also paying close attention to the battle of Lu Zhengcao's department, Han Yunhua knew that this was a big adventure, Lu Zhengcao's department not only had to kill and injure a large number of Japanese troops in the battle, but more importantly, when they retreated to a certain place, they must jump out of the enemy's encirclement, otherwise they were likely to be surrounded and annihilated by the Japanese army, which Han Yunhua did not want to see.

The battle in the northeast region should be indistinguishable in a short period of time, with those strong fortifications, it is not something that can be conquered by little devils in a short time, and even the order given by Han Yunhua to Lu Zhengcao is to persist for more than 20 years.

Mesler was completely stunned by the young Chinese general in front of him, and in the eyes of Colonel Mesler, this lieutenant... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ］
