With the continuous loss of contact between the 20th and 14th Divisions of the Kwantung Army, Commander Sadao Araki, the Kwantung Army Command, was under great pressure. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The circumstances of the demise of the 20th Division could not be concealed, and the Kwantung Army had already reported to the War Department, but the 14th Division was only lost, and there was no evidence that the division had perished.
Therefore, the Kwantung Army has not reported this matter now, hoping to report it when the truth is clear.
This time, the 6th Division marched north to support the 14th Division, and the Kwantung Army Headquarters was much more cautious, liaising with the 6th Division every day for fear of accidents.
Even, the commander of the 6th Division, Lieutenant General Masaemon Sakamoto, was repeatedly admonished that the Kwantung Army would send troops to support him at any time if needed.
In the face of a group of rabble, where will Lieutenant General Masaemon Sakamoto need military support?
Lieutenant General Masaemon Sakamoto, commander of the 6th Division, arrogantly rejected the Kwantung Army's kindness and telegraphed to the Kwantung Army Headquarters that although the 6th Division was resisted, the Imperial Japanese Army was invincible and was violently abusing the resistance.
The commander of the 6th Division, Lieutenant General Masaemon Sakamoto, assured the Kwantung Army command that in more than half a month, the resistance would be eliminated.
Although the commander of the 6th Division, Lieutenant General Masaemon Sakamoto, swore an oath that the commander of the Kwantung Army Headquarters, Sadao Araki, was still not at ease, and he had to contact the 6th Division every day, repeatedly warning him not to be careless and to prevent the other side from engaging in conspiracy and trickery.
In this regard, Lieutenant General Sakamoto Masaemon scoffed, and all conspiracies and tricks will be useless in the face of great strength.
Of course, Lieutenant General Masaemon Sakamoto just thought in his heart that he would not be arrogant enough to contradict the commander of the Kwantung Army Headquarters.
Therefore, the 6th Division of the Kwantung Army did not stop and continued to advance north with difficulty, crushing all resistance forces that blocked their advance.
When the 6th Division of the Japanese Army was entangled with the second-line army of the Northern Anti-Japanese Army, Feng Tian and his comrades-in-arms were in the Tongliao base camp less than 60 kilometers away, which was relatively close to the battlefield, and the main battle force was close to Zhengjiatun.
It was freezing outside, and the Japanese Sixth Division braved the bitter cold to advance northward.
And here, the fire is burning in the house, and the baking room is steaming.
People are more popular than people, and the Northern Anti-Japanese Army is too comfortable.
At this time, Feng Tian was giving lectures to senior officers of the army.
"Weak soldiers and strong armies can be said in terms of quantity, in terms of technology and tactics, and in terms of weapons and equipment between the two sides.
Let's talk about the numbers, for example, a company of our army meets a battalion of the enemy.
The company commander saw that it was right, well, when the two armies meet, the brave wins, and the brothers rush, and the consequences can be imagined.
Courage is brave, but it is extremely stupid.
If any of my subordinates commands a war like this, I will not only remove him from his post, but also give him a beautiful nickname: if he is the company commander, I will call him the pig-headed company commander; If he is the battalion commander, he will be called the pig-headed battalion commander.
You are a commander, you have to use your brain to fight, and any decision you make is related to the life of a soldier.
There are many ways to fight against the enemy in the face of a strong army, but you have chosen the stupidest one.
A soldier's life is valuable, and it cannot be sacrificed so hastily and in vain. ”
Feng Tian had to make some efforts to change the thinking of these former commanders of the Northeast Army, otherwise, he would not be able to adapt to the operational command under the new situation.
Fighting a tough battle is certainly enjoyable, but it comes at the cost of casualties among soldiers.
Feng Tian tried his best to bring these troops together, but he didn't want them to be harmed.
"Some commanders like to fight tough battles, like to fight every inch of land, and even pay a great price in exchange for victory.
All rigid dogma, stubbornness, rigid command is undesirable.
Fighting a tough battle is decided by time, place, and necessity.
For example, a few days ago, Wang Tiehan's brigade stubbornly withstood the enemy's attack and withstood the attack of the Japanese army without retreating.
Because, behind him, there was a train full of important supplies passing by, and the Japanese army must not be allowed to get it.
Because of the need, that's why we fought a tough battle.
And fighting a tough battle is not as simple as fighting for a breath, or just fighting a tough battle for the sake of victory.
Of course, as soldiers, we should be prepared to die at any time.
However, this sacrifice must be made on the premise of accomplishing a certain strategic and tactical goal. Feng Tian drank saliva, moistened his throat, and continued: "For example, in the face of a strong enemy, our army must retreat. However, it will take time for the large forces to retreat, and it is necessary to leave the army to block it.
For another example, the Japanese army is attacking on a large scale, and the people behind our army have not yet evacuated, so the army must firmly block the Japanese army and buy the necessary time for the people to evacuate.
A retreat is not a rout, it is a tactical need, and it must be orderly.
Then, it is necessary to leave a small force to hold off the enemy.
This remaining unit must not allow the enemy to cross the position, even if it is killed in battle, within the specified time.
This sacrifice was worthwhile, he fulfilled the set goal, created the conditions for the destruction of the enemy by the main forces.
This is likely to happen to all of you.
And every soldier should have the spirit of self-sacrifice.
As soldiers, we can all rest assured that we will hand over our backs to our comrades-in-arms, you just rush forward, and your comrades-in-arms will block bullets and bayonets behind you for you. Comradeship is condensed with blood. ”
Feng Tian is not talking about theories, but citing examples of battles to tell the truth to the commanders.
"When we have to face a fierce enemy, what should we do?
It is nothing more than making full use of the time, place, and people, and there are many examples of this ancient time, and the familiar one is the Three Kingdoms.
In the battle of Guandu, Cao Cao was a weak army, and a fire burned Yuan Shaojun's army to a pulp.
Then there is the Battle of Chibi, and the flooding of the Seventh Army and so on.
Too much. Our army's regulations stipulate that before a war, our army must understand and be familiar with the preset battlefield.
A strong enemy is coming, and I will not confront you head-on.
Find a favorable terrain, first hide it, the enemy is clear and I am dark, and if the enemy is unprepared, hit him in an ambush.
A few rows of guns down can always eliminate a part of the enemy, right?
Unless you shoot in the air, there will always be a reward.
Small armies attack strong enemies, and before the enemy can react, they will slip away.
Repeat it a few times, and the enemy will become fewer and fewer, and the small amount will add up.
Of course, you can't let the enemy touch your laws.
The enemy suffers a loss, and the two reactions are either thunderous or cautious.
If you jump like thunder, the enemy will show many flaws, and you will have many opportunities.
Be careful, the enemy will move slowly, and it will also give you more opportunities.
The enemy wants to rest, and you harass him and does not let him rest. As the enemy grows weaker and weaker, you fight him with hatred and even destroy him.
To sum up: the enemy advances and we retreat, the enemy is stationed and disturbs us, the enemy is tired and I fight, and the enemy retreats and we advance.
Another method of warfare is to destroy the enemy while marching and moving, which is called movement warfare, and is suitable for large-scale battles at and above the division level.
For example, one division of our army confronts one or two divisions of the enemy.
Fight head-on, the loss is large, kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800, we don't do the things that suffer.
Our division can arrange a small force to camouflage the main force to attract the enemy, while the main force is transferred to the outer line, waiting for an opportunity to find fighters.
When a large army marches on a long front, many fighters will be created.
For example, the enemy's baggage and artillery units are moving slowly. Once a certain distance is opened from the enemy's main force, the main force of our army can gather and annihilate it with absolute superiority.
But it must be done quickly, and it must not be dragged into the mud. If the enemy's main force is entangled, it will turn a very favorable annihilation battle into a stalemate battle......
It can also constantly create illusions to confuse the enemy army and disperse the enemy troops. Catch a small group of enemy troops, gather and annihilate them. Eventually, the enemy will be weakened until it is destroyed.
To sum up, there are probably the following tactics for a weak army against a strong army: ambush warfare, sparrow warfare, guerrilla warfare, movement warfare, and encirclement and reinforcement.
A qualified commander must learn to use his brain to fight a war and strive to achieve the greatest results at the lowest cost.
As a commander, you only need the result of victory, and as for the process, you can use any conspiracy means, borrowing the weather, geography, and even sabotage.
Hehe, it looks like we've just destroyed a lot of places.
In Mukden, our army buried the 20th Division, and at what cost?
There were almost zero casualties, and our army did not pay any price. Of course, Mukden City is gone, anyway, sooner or later it will fall into the hands of the Japanese, and it doesn't matter to us whether Mukden City is destroyed or not.
Similarly, Zhengjiatun buried the 6th Division of the Japanese Army in one fell swoop, and our army did not suffer any losses.
Although Mukden City is destroyed, even if it is not destroyed, Mukden City will fall into the hands of the Japanese army.
We can't get it, and the Japanese army can't think of it.
War is brutal, and we must throw away any pots and pots and destroy the aggressor at all costs.
Of course, war is not static, and the strength of the enemy is constantly changing, and our army will become stronger.
In the future, if I have time, I will give you some knowledge of modern warfare. For example, ground-air integrated warfare and sea, land and air coordinated operations.
I hope that all commanders will learn from the war and eventually become victorious generals. Thank you. ”
