Shozo Riverside? Sun Zhen's tone was full of contempt: ...... This guy is just a clown, and I'd love to fight that guy in Nakajima again......

Sun Zhen mentioned Nakajima Kangjian, Song Xilian's expression also became a little dignified, the battle of Liaocheng, the actual commander of the Japanese army was Nakajima Kangjian, in Song Xilian, Sun Zhen's view, the battle of Liaocheng was not a victory but a defeat, 50,000 Japanese troops were surrounded in Liaocheng, not only let them break through, thousands of miles of pursuit, but also let them escape, which made Song Xilian and Sun Zhen very dissatisfied.

"Last time this kid was good luck, this time ,...... Song Xilian thought that the Fifth Division was not in Langfang. couldn't help but feel a little frustrated: "This kid is going to hit Lao Tzu's hand again, hum, let him run away, Lao Tzu's Song character is written upside down......

Since the war, the generals of the Chinese countries have undergone a great change in their mentality and confidence. If it was said that in the past, it was to hide from the Japanese army, but now it is looking for the Japanese army to fight, and the ordinary Japanese army still looks down on it.

The Central Group commanded by Song Xilian included his Second Army, the 22nd Group Army. The 36th Group Army, in addition to the attached 71st Army and 72nd Army. Provisional 19th Army. In addition to the poor equipment of the provisional 19th Army, the rest of the troops were well-equipped, and the 71st and 72nd armies were even more semi-American-style equipment, and in addition to artillery, there was also a tank regiment equipped with forty-two Sherman tanks.

In addition, there was a separate 2nd Tank Division. The 3rd and 4th Separate Tank Brigades, the 36th Army and the 22nd Army each had a tank regiment, with a total of 430 tanks. There are more than 200 Xijia cars. 110 self-propelled guns; Rocket artillery 2nd, 3rd, 6th, 8th regiments. The 3rd Division of the Air Force is responsible for providing them with air support.

Whether it is on the ground or in the sky, Song Xilian has an absolute advantage, "There are only six divisions and one mixed brigade in the hands of Hebian Zhengsan, even if you add three divisions and one mixed brigade in Gu'an, the number of troops that Hebian Zhengsan can use is only 140,000."

According to intelligence, among the nine divisions of the Shozo Group on the riverside. There are five C divisions and four B divisions. There are more than 120,000 people in the C Division. There are 150,000 men in the B division, 5,000 in the independent mixed brigade, and the total strength is only 140,000 with other subordinate units. Song Xilian's strength is more than three times that of him, and the comparison between technical weapons and the air force is even more overwhelming.

It is precisely because of this advantage that Song Xilian and the commanders of the group armies and army divisions below have such confidence.

, "Commander Zhuang asked us to cut off the connection between Gu'an and Langfang if we started a war" Commander Sun. Do you have any questions? ……

The theater held an operational meeting two days ago, and only four commanders-in-chief attended this meeting, Tang Enbo, Song Xilian, and Du Yuming, as well as Wei Lihuang, who was originally fighting west of the Pinghan Line. Centerline. Zhuang Jihua is most concerned about whether he can take Langfang on time, and especially reminds that at the beginning of the attack, he must cut off the connection between Langfang and Gu'an, and then concentrate on taking Langfang.

Song Xilian handed over this task to Sun Zhen, and the 100,000 troops of the 22nd Group Army were "paired with the 19th Army." First of all, the defenders of Gu'an were suppressed with a fierce offensive and cut off the connection between Gu'an and Langfang.

"Don't worry. Forty-fifth Army, reinforced tank regiments of the group army. The breakthrough was chosen in Cao's housework. Sun Zhen was very calm. The deployment of the Japanese army has been fully grasped by the theater of operations. Cao's housework is the combination of the 121st Division in Gu'an and the 41st Division in Langfang.

Song Xilian nodded, he turned his head and asked Feng Shengfa: "Commander Feng, the 71st Army and the 72nd Army are responsible for cutting off the connection between Tianjin and Langfang. Will you be able to complete the task? ”。

"Don't worry, Commander". Feng Shengfa's answer did not hesitate: "We will choose Douzhang for the breakthrough." A village east of the Douzhang Corridor, close to Wuqing. This is the junction of the 27th Division of the Tianjin Defenders and the 6th-4th Divisions of the Langfang Defenders.

The junction is often the weakest place in defense, and most of the attacking sides choose such a location, and any general knows this, and the only way to improve this problem is to rely on the cooperation of generals on both sides of the junction.

Responsible for the frontal offensive were the 36th Army and the 3rd and 4th Separate Tank Brigades. In this offensive, Song Xilian went against the norm and kept the Second Independent Tank Division and the Second Army as reserves, both Feng Shengfa and Sun Zhen felt strange, but Zhuang Jihua approved this plan.

"All the troops were in place in two days, and the offensive was to be on February 20, at five o'clock in the morning." Go back and get ready......

Song Xilian was in a meeting, and Du Yuming, the commander of the Eastern Front, was also holding an operational meeting, and Du Yuming was only under the command of the 50th Group Army, the First Group Army, and the 52nd Group Army. The Third Army, the Fourth Army, the 112th Army, and the New Eighth Army. 108th Army, 6th Brigade of Independent Tanks. The 9th Rocket Artillery Regiment, with a total strength of 550,000, is supported by the 4th Air Force Division.

Du Yuming's mission was to occupy Jinghai. Break through the defense line of the Duliu River of the Japanese army and cut off the connection between Tianjin and Tanggu. If you can attack and occupy Tanggu.

Du Yuming faced the generals, his tone was very calm, and he didn't seem to think about Jinghai: "Commander Lan." Your First Group Army is the right flank of our army, responsible for the east of Tuanbo Town, all the way to the sea" General Gao Shuxun's 108th Army belongs to your department, pay attention to the direction of Tanggu, Tanggu defends the enemy as an independent mixed 16 brigade, with a strength of 5,000 people, the terrain around Tanggu is complex, and there are many swamps, which is not conducive to the operation of large corps, so your main attention should still be focused on Tianjin, and after breaking through the Duliu River, quickly advance north. Occupy the central bridge, the military grain city, and cut off the connection between Tanggu and Tianjin...... Commander Ban, your mission is to move back from the left flank. After breaking through the Japanese defense line, they quickly moved north, attacked Xiqing, and surrounded Tianjin from the west. The 3rd Army of the 6th Independent Tank Brigade is subordinate to your unit, and it is necessary to pay attention to the contact with the friendly forces of the Central Group Army, and at the same time cut off the connection between Beiping and Tianjin. ”。

"The 50th Group Army was responsible for the frontal attack, first conquering Jinghai, and setting up the former enemy's commander-in-chief, General Situ Fei, deputy commander of the group army and commander of the 77th Army. Attached to the Green Fourth Army. The 112th Army and the New Eighth Army were in reserve......

"Do you understand?" ”

"Understood! The generals agreed.

The siege is missing one, the battle plan is decent, and there is no slightest surprise at the beginning. However, the defender of Tianjin, Yokoyama Yong, is an opponent who has never appeared, and Okamura Ninji can choose him to defend Tianjin, and he must have something extraordinary. Tianjin defended six divisions and one mixed brigade, with a total strength of more than 80,000 people, and the city walls were high and thick. The information from the Ministry of Intelligence Isamu Yokoyama's deployment was similarly decent. Three C divisions were outside the city, three B divisions were inside the city, and the 8th Brigade was independently mixed into the north of the city.

Du Yuming's plan is to be undefeated first. Then look at the changes of Yokoyama Yong, the 112th Army and the New Eighth Army are the expeditionary forces that have returned from Burma, and the commander of the New Eighth Army, Dai Anlan, and Li Tianxia, the commander of the 112th Army. After the Battle of Myitkyina, Dai Anlan was promoted to the commander of the 66th Army, Yu Jishi wanted to reorganize the army, Zhuang Jihua took the opportunity to transfer Huang Botao, Yu Chengwan, Chen Mingren and other Zhuang generals to the Fifth War Zone, but he did not expect that due to the transfer of too many officers, the officers of the New Eighth Army and the 112th Army were dissatisfied. It was believed that Yu Jishi had squeezed out the generals promoted by Zhuang Jihua, and among them, the New Eighth Army reacted the strongest, and the officers privately conspired to refuse Shi Zhongcheng to serve as the army commander. After Yu Jishi found out, he immediately made changes and transferred Dai Anlan back from the 66th Army. Shi Zhongcheng took over as commander of the 66th Army. At the same time, Zhuang Jihua also called. Generals at all levels are required to obey orders. It is forbidden to have warlord thoughts, so Li Tianxia successfully took over as the commander of the 112th Army.

These two armies were baptized by the Burma battle and were the main force of the expeditionary force, although Stilwell was dissatisfied with Zhuang Jihua. However, these two armies were very appreciative and designated them as the first batch of training units of the expeditionary force. All the regiments and above sent advisers to replace the equipment of the whole army, and their firepower was stronger than that of the 49th Group Army.

Du Yuming kept these two armies in reserve, obviously keeping his hands, and he didn't want to let Yokoyama find out his hole cards at the beginning of the attack.

"The meeting ended, and the launch of the offensive was set for February 20, at five o'clock in the morning. Go back, everybody! The headquarters doesn't care about food......

The jeeps parked outside the entrance of the village drove away one after another, Ye Sufei was a little stunned, almost all the generals who boarded the car knew each other, and there were more than 400,000 troops in a rough calculation, judging by her eyes, the entire southern front. The Chinese army has amassed more than a million troops, and there are 400,000 in the direction of Tianjin, which can be regarded as the main direction of attack.

, "Leaf ,...... Ye Xufei turned her head to look. But it was Foreman who greeted her, and she smiled reluctantly. Foreman clearly saw that she had something on her mind: "Ye, what are you thinking?" ”。

Ye Sufei sighed deeply, stabilized her mood, and smiled first: "I'm thinking about the generals who left just now, it seems that the Battle of Pingjin is about to start in the next few days......

Foreman nodded approvingly, and the military reporter had been working for a long time. The last time Zhuang Jihua held an operational meeting in Dexian County, the reporters were betting that the attack would be launched within ten days, but they did not expect that the Japanese army would take the initiative to withdraw, and the attack would naturally run aground.

"But I'm very curious, why is General Qiu Qingquan still staying in Rongchengchi District? It is more than 100 miles from the front line...... Ye Sufei frowned and asked.

Qiu Qingquan's 1st Mechanized Army stayed north of Rongcheng and did not approach the front line. Not even expanded. Reporters frequently went to the army to interview, and Qiu Qingquan also accepted interviews with reporters many times: "The photos have all appeared in the "Advance Daily" run by the war zone, not to mention reporters, I am afraid that Okamura Ninji knows that he is helping."

Foreman shrugged. Look up at the field. Over there, there was another front team: "I don't know, I'm not a general, I'm just a reporter......"

"In the Battle of Shandong, General Qiu Qingquan eliminated the 1st Tank Division of the Japanese Army, raided Dexian, and defeated the main force of the Japanese army in one fell swoop. And from the European theater of operations, tanks are the main striking force, how can they be so far away from the battlefield? …… Ye Sufei frowned, as if she was talking to herself.

"Maybe Commander Zhuang has something in mind,...... Foreman thought for a moment, "But it seems to me to be normal. You see, we have been to the Fifth Army, they are in the Gaobeidian area, and the First Mechanized Army is also in the Gaobeidian area, but a little farther away, from here along the Pinghan Road can directly rush to Beiping. ”。

Ye Sufei nodded, but then shook her head again: "Even so, they are too far away from the front, and if anything happens, there is no time for reinforcements......

Foreman sneered, and Ye Sufei looked at it with some astonishment, as if she didn't know what was ridiculous about it. Foreman smiled and waved his hand: "NO, NO, Ye, you are very bad like this, we are just reporters, only reporting facts." The generals command the operation, we report the news. We can't take the salary of a journalist and do the work of a general. It's not fair. ”

Ye Xufei sneered, and Bai Xiude muttered loudly while shaking the mud on his feet: "My boots are fifty pounds!" Oh, my God. I can still walk! ”。
