Is it early in the morning to retreat? Tokunaga took a deep breath, stabilized his mood and asked with some doubts: "The Kwantung Army still has thirty days to arrive, and once it is divided and surrounded, the troops will be in danger." \\。 ”

This is a very practical problem, once the whole battle situation evolves to the point that Pingjin is divided and surrounded, "then it can only be completely passively beaten, although the Chinese army has not yet stormed the heavily guarded city, but with their current combat effectiveness, neither Gu Shoufu nor Yokoyama Isamu dare not say that they are completely sure to hold the city."

In addition to this reason, there is also an important reason that "Pingjin is divided and surrounded, the Chinese army has to fight and leave, and it can do whatever it wants, even if the Kwantung Army enters the pass, it will be difficult to seize the Chinese army and force them to fight a decisive battle, so as to achieve the purpose of inflicting heavy losses on the Chinese army, and then forcing the Chinese army to sue for peace."

Tokunaga's rhetorical question silenced Oshiro and Tatetakanosuke, and Okamura Ninji never said anything, "It seems that the letter of relocation seems to be encouraged" He took a step forward and said loudly: "Your Excellency, the purpose of the Shina Army is to divide and encircle Heijin, and if they are allowed to achieve their strategic goals, the Imperial Army will surely be defeated. Under the relative wry smile of Oshiro and Ligao Zhisuke, there is some truth in the words of the relocation of the political letter, "The purpose of the ** team in the strong attack on Gu'an Langfang is to divide Beiping and Tianjin, and the retreat is undoubtedly to allow the Chinese army to successfully achieve its strategic goal."

"Counselor, what is your strategy?" Okamura didn't look back, still looking at the map.

"It is proposed to mobilize the 5th Division and the 2nd Division, together with the 132nd Division and the 1st Division" and the 3rd Tank Brigade to counterattack in the Gu'an direction. Qian Zhengxin did not flinch and put forward his plan loudly.

Dacheng frowned slightly: "So quick to act, use the reserves?" "Inappropriate" inappropriate. ”

The Fifth Division, the Second Division, the Tenth Division, and the three Chariot Divisions assembled in the Huairou Miyun area are reserved reserves, and it is a taboo for soldiers to use reserves in just two days.

"The reserves were not used, and the 10th Division and the three tank divisions were still not moved." Qian Zhengxin retorted: "In addition, the 19th Division and the 116th Division can be transferred to Huairou to assemble, leaving the 125th Division and the 15th Mixed Brigade to protect the communication line between Zhangjiakou in Beiping." ”

Okamura Ninji turned around, and Qian Zhengxin looked at his face, there was not the slightest expression on his thin face, "I can't tell whether it's for or against." At this time, Tatsunosuke said: "No, no, the three divisions here are mobile troops, in addition to maintaining transportation" Once something happens in Zhangjiakou, they still have the task of supporting Zhangjiakou. The 125th Division and the 15th Mixed Brigade alone will not work. ”

Qian Zhengxin retorted without hesitation: "The battle situation in Zhangjiakou is stable, and General Yoshimu has repelled the attack of the Zhina Army" The strength of the Zhina Army on the northern front is far inferior to that of the southern front, even if Zhangjiakou is attacked, General Jimu will definitely be able to clean up the situation and block the Zhina Army. ”

The Zhangjiakou operation started today, and the momentum of the "Middle" ** team was pressing: "The 86th Army and Fu Zuoyi's 35th Army attacked along the Datong Zhangjiakou Railway on the left and right, and fought fiercely with the 129th Division of the 63rd Division of the Japanese Army on the front line of Chaigoubao, Tianzhen, and Yanggao.

"The Zhangjiakou battle has just begun, and it is too early to make an assertion." Ayutthaya shook his head and said, "At present, the number of troops found by the Zhina Army on the front line is two armies, and the total strength is more than twice that of Jimu, according to intelligence, there are still a large number of troops in the follow-up, and there are as many as two group armies in the Sui Army of Jin, and the battle situation is still not clear at all."

"Okay" No need to fight anymore, you can see ......" Okamura Ningji stopped the relocation of the political letter, picked up the command pole and counted the west bank of Baihegou in the sand: "The Fifth Army of China conquered Nanyao and Baita, the east bank of Baihegou, and the East Bank of Baihegou surrounded Cao's housework, here, a huge gap was formed, and General Zhina would not have seen this gap, according to my understanding, the Fifth Army should have attacked west or continued to attack Diao Wo north" But he didn't, but stopped strangely, what is this? ”

Oshiro Takanosuke Tokunagaki Masato all fell into deep thought, and Tatsutakanosuke frowned slightly and asked tentatively: "Could it be that he will cross the white river ditch and detour from the north to Gu'an?" No, if this is the case, the troops I have gathered in the Peiping area can launch a counteroffensive on his flank. ”

"Yes," Oshiro nodded and said: "If we gather three or four divisions, plus two tank divisions, and counterattack, we can completely defeat the Fifth Army, which is too bold, too bold." ”

Oshiro muttered to himself, "It's a little inconceivable, such a risky move in the hands of the general Shina, who has always been known for his prudence, he does not believe that this will happen."

Tsukenosuke and Tokunaga also did not believe that this action was indeed crazy, completely ignoring the heavy army group assembled by the Japanese army in Beiping, and once the Japanese army launched a counterattack with this, it was very likely to defeat the Fifth Army in one fell swoop.

Qian Zhengxin believed that "General China has always been arrogant" and once this move succeeded, Gu'an would fall into the encirclement of the China army, the entire front would be cut off, and Langfang would be in danger. In this way, the strategic attempt to divide and encircle Beiping and Tianjin was realized.

"Yes", Okamura Ninji nodded approvingly: "But this is just my judgment" Will he do this, for this reason, the 132nd Division and the 1st Division are approaching Wuqing, and the 19th Division will be transported to Beiping overnight, and the order will arrive before dawn tomorrow, and the 2nd Tank Division, the 3rd Tank Division, the 4th Tank Division, and the 5th Division, the 10th Division, will immediately go to Tongzhou, assemble near Tongzhou, and be commanded by the 3rd Deputy Chief of Staff of the Sue Sei, and move the staff officer, you immediately rush to Daxing "The 56th Division Division Headquarters to assist the commander of the Songshan Division in commanding, the 8th Division was assigned to Matsuyama, under the command of the general. ”

Tatetakanosuke's heart shook slightly, Okamura Ningji's courage was big enough, first mobilized two divisions to strengthen the defense of Tianjin, and then transferred two infantry divisions and two tank divisions from the reserves, "one division was transferred from the protection of the Beijing-Zhangjiakou communication line, and two elite divisions were transferred from Beiping City to form an attack group of five infantry divisions, two tank divisions, more than 70,000 troops, and more than 600 tanks.

"Your Excellency, it is difficult to hide such a large-scale transfer." Ayutthaya immediately reminded.

After the Battle of Pingjin began, a large number of guerrillas suddenly appeared in the originally relatively peaceful area, hiding underground like rats, rushing out to bite you when you were not looking, and then retracting. Or instruct the Air Force of China by radio to "bomb the ammunition depots of the imperial army, convoys, troop assembly places." With such a large-scale troop movement, it was impossible to hide from their eyes.

Okamura Uji smiled coldly, "Wave your hand indifferently and let them execute it immediately."

This is a contest of determination between the two commanders.

There is a huge gap in the middle line, Okamura should deploy troops to counterattack, and Zhuang Jihua is also waiting for him to counterattack. But Okamura just doesn't care; So Zhuang Jihua told him, if you don't move, I dare to ignore your heavy army group and go around to Gu'an; Okamura Ninji was also unceremoniously "If you dare to take a detour, I will hit your flank."

Silent dialogue, in an invisible place, through the endless void, ask each other, do you dare!?

This is a contest of the commander's will" is a contest of the commander's courage and the art of the commander's wielding.

At a deeper level, it is the "contest between the commander-in-chief and the soldiers of the Chinese and Japanese armies to see who is more resolute in carrying out orders", whether it is the soldiers raised by the yellow earth or the soldiers baptized by the sea on the island who are more tenacious.

Under the night sky, "the earth was lit up by the light of fire, and the soldiers cowered in their trenches, wrapped tightly in their coats" to ward off the cold winds from the wilderness. The senior generals were busy in the headquarters, staring at the bloodshot eyes for the weaknesses of the other party.

On the highway, the headlights flashed, the long convoy stretched for more than a dozen miles, and in the fields, the Japanese infantry divided into more than a dozen roads, like locusts, crossed the field east of Beiping, and hurried to the south.

"Three gunshots rang out, the entire convoy turned off its lights, all the torches in the wilderness went out, and the whole land became dark." The sound of the engine became louder and louder, and the convoy on the ground cautiously drove forward, "The plane seemed to be about to pass over, and two red flares suddenly rose from the grass on the ground. Then a figure got up and ran desperately into the grove, "In the moonlight, the saber reflected the cold light, and the cavalry quickly caught up.

The sky suddenly became clear, and dozens of flares fluttered in the sky, illuminating the ground brightly. Dive bombers swooped down with a violent whistling. A series of explosions rang out: "One burned on the road.

The anti-aircraft guns marching with the convoy began to fire into the air, and the air defense units formed by the troops temporarily formed by the troops fired into the air, but this only eased a little, and the Chinese air force continued to bomb for half an hour before leaving "seven or eight trucks were burning on the road, and the soldiers scattered in the wilderness regrouped on the road."

"Hurry up, speed up!"

There was a stern urging sound from Cao Chang in his ears, Watanabe Shozaburo was out of breath, the 38 rifle on his shoulders was getting heavier and heavier, the leather boots under his feet were getting heavier and heavier, and his wheezing sound was getting louder and louder.

There was a sudden light on his shoulder, and the gun was taken away, and he turned his head to look, "But it was Cao Changgu who took his rifle to his shoulder," Pay attention to the speed and keep up. Gumoto exclaimed, "Then he shook off and strode forward."

Gu Ben looked down on these recruits very much, these recruits were replenished for only four months, the troops suffered heavy losses in the battle of Liaocheng, and those veterans who had several years of combat experience fell on the bloody road of retreating from Liaocheng, these recruits and those veterans are like a kendo eight-stage master and a trainee who has just begun to practice swords, there is no comparison at all.

The recruits couldn't run, and more and more people were left behind, and finally an order came from the front to rest, "Guben can't rest, he must gather his squad, the troops have lost too many officers, and he, the commander of Cao, also commanded a squad."

Watanabe and many of his soldiers lay in the snow and gasped, and Furumoto ordered them to get up and not to sit down, "After a long march, it is easy to catch a cold if you lie on the snow like this, and he doesn't want the squad to be greatly reduced before the battle has even begun."

Ten minutes later, the order came down again, "The troops continued to advance, and the sky was much quieter" It seems that the Chinese Air Force did not come again, and I don't know if it is really not coming again, or only temporarily. Guben prayed in his heart that he hoped they wouldn't come again! ~！
