Regarding how to fight this big battle, in fact, Xue Yue already had a plan in his heart. But he still wanted to hear the opinion of Han Yunhua, the [***] victorious general, so he specially sent a telegram to Han Yunhua to ask.

Han Yunhua was also paying close attention to the dynamics of Peng Ze and Hukou during this time, so he also had a little opinion of his own, and even sent a telegram back to Xue Yue: "Brother Boling, the army of Kou is gathered in the area of Wuhan, but Madang, an important place in the east of Wuhan, has fallen into the hands of the enemy, so Hukou and Jiujiang have become the last gateways to Wuhan, and there is no room for loss." After the loss of Madang Fortress, Peng Ze's military value has risen greatly, but it is not a place that must be defended, as long as the army can afford to pay the price, then we can also give Peng Ze to the enemy. It is said that the strategy of the chief Okamura Ningci's troops to break into multiple routes and fully blossom has its merits, and it can mobilize our army to defend it to the greatest extent, but the strategy of all-round flowering also has its fatal loopholes. Flowers are blooming everywhere, but it is said that Kou is also in a state of multiple roads, so it is conducive to our army's various breakthroughs. As long as our army drags down one part of the main force of the Yue army and gathers one of the main forces to annihilate one or two of its divisions, the intention of the Yue army to invade Wuhan will surely be frustrated............

After Xue Yue read the telegram sent by Han Yunhua, he laughed and said, "The future is terrifying!" There are really a lot of talented people in China, and this Han Yunhua's strategic and tactical level is indeed not ordinary, and it is better than those senior officers who have received orthodox military studies. Immediately, Xue Yue also sent a telegram back to Han Yunhua: "Brother Yunhua: The heroes see the same thing, and it is said that the chief Okamura Ning Ci really underestimates my Chinese citizens and my patriotic soldiers. Full bloom is just a joke, blooming in front of my million-strong army will only turn his Eleventh Army into a pile of dead grass. Your ministry is the elite of your party, and this time our army still needs the help of Brother Yunhua! The plan of our army is ........."

After reading Xue Yue's military plan, Han Yunhua had to admire that this world-famous general was indeed extraordinary, although it was only a rough military plan, but some of the tactics mentioned in it still benefited Han Yunhua a lot. After carefully analyzing Xue Yue's plan, Han Yunhua could only say that Xue Yue was making another big gamble, but the chance of winning this gamble was relatively large, even if it could not achieve the expected goal, it would definitely not cause the overall situation to deteriorate, and Han Yunhua finally felt that this military plan was very feasible. Han Yunhua's call back to Xue Yue didn't say much, only eight words: "Brothers are of the same heart, and their benefits are golden!" ”

After Xue Yue saw it, he felt a sense of clarity in his heart.

Next, the army found that the battle on the south bank of the Yangtze River suddenly became strange, although the Botian detachment broke through Penglangji and the watershed, and the second wing of the Taiwanese infantry had also been stationed in Quanshan Town, but then it was difficult to move an inch, and every step had to pay a huge price, and finally stopped near the county seat of Pengze County.

Before the 101st Division entered Hukou County, it was stubbornly blocked by the Nationalist Axe, and the entire division of more than 20,000 people was blocked by the seven divisions of the First Corps on the line of Yunding Mountain, Huiling, and Shenxian Mountain, and could not advance an inch.

However, Lieutenant General Honma's 27th Division and Lieutenant General Matsuura Junrokuro's 106th Division were progressing smoothly, especially the 27th Division, and the firepower of the 2nd Division, which had stubbornly resisted the day before, gradually weakened the next day.

As Lieutenant General Masaharu Honma had predicted, by four o'clock in the afternoon of the 21st, the squadron [***] in the Tongzijian position was completely "defeated", and the Tongzijian position was occupied by the 27th Division. Lieutenant General Masaharu Honma ordered his troops to take advantage of the victory and pursue them in pursuit of the depth of the lake. However, it was blocked by the [***] team on the front line of Huajiashan and Lingshan.

The 106th Division occupied Wanzhen on the 19th, and on the 20th, it defeated the troops of the Nationalist Axe of Yangling and Wufengling, and approached Duchang. Although Duchang County is far away from Jiujiang, as long as the 106th Division occupies Duchang County, then the army will be able to attack the hinterland of Jiujiang from the south of Jiujiang, just like the 106th Division in history.

Although the 106th Division was defeated and retreated, there was no rout and escape that often occurred in the army of the National Axe, but it blocked the 106th Division according to the favorable terrain, causing great casualties to the 106th Division. In just a few hundred kilometers from Wanzhen to Duchang, the 106th Division was now blocked 71 times just halfway through, and although the 106th Division was able to "defeat" the enemy in front of it every time, it would always have large casualties.

The 106th Division was the most famous army division during the Anti-Japanese War, and it was more famous than the 6th Division and the 16th Division and several other beast divisions. The commander of the division, Lieutenant General Junrokuro Matsuura, and the chief of staff, Yoshitaka Akiyama, were Osa. The 106th Division was formed in Kumamoto on May 15, 1938, incorporated into the Central China Dispatch Army on July 20, and incorporated into the 11th Army on August 4. Subordinate: The 111th Infantry Brigade (Brigade Commander Major General Yamachi Heng), and the 111th Infantry Brigade has two infantry wings: the 113th Infantry Wing (Wing Commander Kentensaku Iino) and the 147th Infantry Wing (Wing Commander Yoshio Sonoda). The 136th Infantry Brigade (Brigade Commander Major General Keiichi Aoki) and the 136th Infantry Brigade have two infantry wings: the 123rd Infantry Wing (Wing Commander Kijima Kasuo Osa) and the 145th Infantry Wing (Wing Commander Yozo Ichikawa Nakasa). The 106th Cavalry Brigade (Captain Mubukuro Junnakasa), the 106th Field Artillery Wing (Wing Commander Uga Takenakasa), the 106th Engineer Wing (Wing Commander Hideo Chamura Nakasa), the 106th Light and Heavy Infantry Wing (Wing Commander Yorikawa Sunbei Nakasa), the Signal Team, the Health Team, and the 1st to 4th Field Hospitals. The 106th Division is a complete field division, and its combat effectiveness is stronger than that of the 27th Division, and it is a well-deserved main division of the 11th Army.

However, the commander of the 106th Division, Matsuura Junrokuro, was a commander with a low eye, a great joy, and a proud and arrogant commander, and it was precisely because of his surname that he was defeated by Xue Yue in the Battle of Wanjialing in history, and became the first division-level unit in history to be completely annihilated.

In fact, Han Yunhua knew very well that in history, the national political axe said that the 106th Division was completely annihilated, and there were two criteria for judging that a unit was completely annihilated, the first was that the military commander of this unit was killed or captured, and the second was that the military flag of this unit was captured by the enemy. However, although the Wanjialing Battle in history annihilated most of the main forces of the 106th Division, it was precisely the old devil Matsuura Junrokuro who fled with a few officers and less than 300 devils, so until after the war, the army did not recognize the fact that the 106th Division was completely annihilated.

The result of Xue Yue's consultation with Han Yunhua this time was that Han Yunhua's headquarters was responsible for defending the 106th Division, and would stop this special division of the Yue Army in the area south of De'an at all costs, while Xue Yue's First Corps wanted to completely annihilate the 27th Division before the reinforcements of the Yue Army arrived. On the one hand, he ordered Li Hanxun's 64th Army to drag the Botian detachment in the Pengze area, and on the other hand, he organized seven divisions to block the 101st Division, which was relatively strong in combat, and the 9th Division, which was not far from the 101st Division, in the mountainous area southeast of Hukou County. The 27th Division, which is still a well-known unit in the Yue Army, will advance smoothly to the hinterland of Hukou County, and finally enter the area between Chengshan, Shaoshan, Hualuan, and Fushan, where the First Corps has deployed a total of about 80,000 people in 9 divisions, as long as the 27th Division enters this pocket, then this sleeve will begin to tighten, until Lieutenant General Honma Masaharu and the more than 18,000 people under his command are all strangled to death.

However, this plan still has a great element of risk, and if it succeeds, the danger of the battle of Wuhan will be alleviated, and even the two sides will stop fighting. However, you must know that the army now has eight divisions on the south bank of the Yangtze River, and one is the Potian detachment, which is equivalent to an integrated ad hoc division. In the area around Hukou alone, there were the 9th Division, the 101st Division, the 106th Division, the Potian Detachment, and the 27th Division, with a total strength of about 80,000 troops. At that time, as long as the army makes a breakthrough in any other direction, then Xue Yue's plan will be very useless, and even the headquarters will suffer great losses. And if Xue Yue's pocket formation is not tight and allows the 27th Division to rush out, then it will be difficult for this plan to succeed.

The risk is very great, but the profit is also very attractive, and not everyone can fight such a record by annihilating a field division of the army. Even Han Yunhua's department, which is now in the limelight, has actually not completely annihilated a single division, even if so many Yue troops were annihilated during the Battle of Saibei, none of the integrated divisions and regiments have been annihilated.

Once an integrated army division is annihilated, the consequences are not something that Okamura Ninji can bear, and that kind of disaster is no less small than the annihilation of the main force of the Third Fleet. That's why Han Yunhua decided to play with Xue Yue, but Han Yunhua is not a vegetarian, even if Xue Yue knows that Han Yunhua definitely has more than one brigade, but he doesn't dare to think that the current Reading Force 77 Brigade will have more than 15,000 people (more than 1,000 people lost during this time), and the strength is no less than the two divisions of the Central Army, not counting that Han Yunhua still has a special force in his hand that makes the Yue army frightened, so Han Yunhua doesn't want Xue Yue to be in front of him, isn't it just a division, he Han Yunhua can also fight.
