Soon the army in North China made major adjustments, and with the arrival of the supplementary corps in the country, the situation of the lack of troops in the North China Front was somewhat alleviated, and the first batch of troops that arrived did not have the reinforcements of the six divisions and regiments that the army headquarters had promised to transfer to the North China Front, but they sent 50,000 reinforcements.

As these supplementary troops were successively added to the divisions, the eight incomplete divisions led by Yoshio Shinozuka's 10th Division finally recovered a little vitality, but despite this, Tada Jun did not know the bottom in his heart, the original North China Front Army can also be regarded as strong in the entire Chinese dispatch army, a full 380,000 troops, invincible as pointed by Jianfeng, and the Fifth Division of Itagaki Seishiro during the Battle of Xinkou only used half a division to defeat more than 30 divisions in the second theater of the Chinese National Axe, Later, he occupied Taiyuan, which Yan Xishan had run for most of his life, what a majesty it was.

However, at this time, the North China Front Army was no longer majestic, and the successive defeats made the Chinese [***] team not only defeat the Yue army on the battlefield, but also defeat the Yue army in confidence. Although according to the information sent back by an informant who was lurking in the control area of the North Korean Yunhua Division, the previous period of the Great War also caused huge losses to the Sichuan Yunhua Division, according to the current personal witnesses, it is said that there are several hundred vehicles transporting the wounded, and they have been transported for more than 10 consecutive days.

As an experienced commander, Tada Jun knew very well that after the end of the war, not all the wounded needed to be treated by the headquarters of the transportation association, only those who were seriously injured and had to recuperate for a long time or needed surgery in a short period of time had to be transported back to the headquarters for treatment, and those who were lightly wounded only needed to stay in the active army to recuperate. According to the informant, there should be tens of thousands of seriously wounded in this battle of Han Yunhua's department, even if there are only 20,000 people, according to the ratio of 5:1 of light and serious wounded, Tada Jun was pleased to find that Han Yunhua's department had more than 100,000 soldiers injured some time ago, plus those who died directly on the battlefield, the loss of Han Yunhua's troops should be between 130,000 and 150,000.

But Tada himself knows that this is just his own conjecture, and no one knows what the truth is. However, no matter what the situation is on the other side, the situation at home is indeed very clear, and if the six divisions and regiments promised by the military headquarters cannot be put in place, it will be difficult for the situation in North China to control this decadent trend. At that time, the North China Front Army was surrounded by the [***] team, although these [***] teams were full of internal contradictions, but in the face of the Great Empire, the attitude was the same, and now these [***] teams have seen the weakness of the front army, although Han Yunhua's department in the north has not taken action against the front army in recent times, and according to the analysis of the special high-tech department, it is impossible for the one in the north to have a tendency to target the empire in a short period of time, except for special circumstances, of course.

However, whether it was the Central Army of the Central Army, the descendant of the National Political Axe, or the Jin Sui Army of Yan, the Second Theater of Operations, they were moving frequently during this time, and even Wei Lihuang's headquarters, which had been cowering in Tojo Mountain, began to move, and some troops had already walked out of Tojo Mountain. And the Eighth Route Army in the southeast of Shanxi Province was not far behind, and in recent times, it was as excited as a chicken's blood, and frequently launched attacks on the First Army in Shanxi, all of which made Tada Jun feel a serious threat.

After fighting with the [***] team for nearly three years, Tada Jun knows very well the surname of the [***] team, if it were not for the last resort, the [***] team would not fight to the death with the elite of the empire, let alone take the initiative to launch a large-scale attack, but now the frequent attacks of the [***] team can only show one truth, that is, they have a consensus - the combat effectiveness of the imperial soldiers has declined.

This discovery made Tada Jun very worried, others may not know, but how can Tada Jun, who has been fighting on the front line, not feel the changes in the troops, to say that the 37-year-old emperor [***] team is as invincible as a lion on the African grassland, then the imperial troops at this time are elderly lions, and even local dogs like the Eighth Route Army dare to call the emperor [***] team head-on. Tada Jun obviously felt that the combat effectiveness of the emperor [***] team had declined, and the decline was very large, he also tried to analyze the reasons for the decline in combat effectiveness, the loss of veterans is only one aspect, on the other hand, the progress of the middle [***] team is great, its combat effectiveness and field ability have been significantly enhanced, and it seems that the combat effectiveness of the emperor [***] team has decreased a lot.

In view of the fact that the squadron would not give the front army time to rest and recuperate in a short period of time, Tada ordered the troops in each defense area not to have a large-scale clash with the Shina troops in a short period of time, and to try to control the battle within a certain range. At the same time, in the name of the supreme commander of the North China Front Command, Tada Jun sent six urgent telegrams to the top level of the military department, and the content of the telegrams was only one, that is, the reinforcements must arrive at the port of Tianjin before 20 October, otherwise the situation in North China would inevitably deteriorate further.

Although Tada Jun's continuous actions during this period were not large, they temporarily succeeded in stabilizing the military in North China, although southern Hebei, southeastern Shanxi, northwest Shanxi, and southeastern Shandong were still fighting, but the scale was not large, and even the scale of the brigade level could not be talked about, so the military department was still very satisfied with Tadajun's performance.

Moreover, the General Staff Headquarters of the Military Department also agreed with Tada's analysis, so under the personal instructions of Prince Zaihito Kanin, the actual controller of the Military Department, the six second-class divisions that were to be transferred to the North China Front Army were quickly loaded in Tokyo.

The actions of the North China Front were not deliberately hidden, let alone military top secrets, so soon Han Yunhua's desk appeared with an information on the recent activities of the North China Front, including the information of Tada Jun, the commander of the North China Front.

Han Yunhua was still very concerned about Tada Jun's every move during this period, after all, the Inner Mongolia Military Region would have to deal with this lieutenant general for a long time to come, and it was necessary to understand the opponent. However, after reading the personal information about the former commander of the Third Army collected by Qian Zhuangfei's intelligence department, Han Yunhua's brows couldn't help frowning.

Qian Zhuangfei's intelligence department was indeed established for a short time, and despite Han Yunhua's strong support, it was indeed not deep enough, so it was still very poor to pay attention to things outside North China. Take the last time Han Yunhua could explain to Qian Zhuangfei and let him keep an eye on the movements in Europe, especially Germany. However, it was not until two days after the German raid on Poland that Han Yunhua got the exact news, and the military command department of the Nationalist Political Axe learned the news that night and quickly transmitted it back to China.

This time, Han Yunhua was also a little puzzled after reading the information about Tada Jun collected by the intelligence department, if it was someone else, Han Yunhua might not know, but he was still very clear about the commanders of the North China Front, in addition to the first commander, General Terauchi Shouichi and the most famous and longest-lasting General Okamura Ningji, Han Yunhua knew most about Tada Jun, a lieutenant general of the army who had served in North China for less than a year, but had "brilliant" results. As far as Han Yunhua knows, Tada Jun is a soldier from China who has served as an instructor at the Army University in Yenjing three times. The first time was in 1917, when he was still a captain, and he first came to teach at Yenching Lu University, when the Beiyang warlords were in power. In 1926, he had been promoted to Zhongzuo, and he came to Yanjing Luda again, and at this time, the power of Yanjing political axe was in the hands of Zhang Zuolin. The third time was on the eve of the September 18 Incident, when Chiang Kai-shek's Nationalist Axe had nominally unified the whole country, and Yanjing had been renamed Beiping. After the 77 Incident, he basically had no experience in serving in the Central Committee of the Army, and he was elected by Ishihara to serve as deputy chief of staff, and together with Shibayama Kanshiro, chief of the Army's Military Affairs Section, he supported Ishihara's policy of non-expansion, believing that the war against China could only weaken the war preparedness against the Soviet Union, and after the capture of Nanjing, he always insisted on negotiating peace with Chiang Kai-shek. After the Battle of Taierzhuang in May 38, he did not advocate the use of the Kwantung Army to fight in the pass, but advocated that it was enough to transfer the troops of North China and Central China to the nearest place. When discussing the battle plan for the Hankou Raid, he strongly advocated keeping the main forces of the three divisions on standby in Taiwan, and when the battle was in full swing, he released the winning hand and made a surprise attack on Guangzhou, and for this purpose he organized the 21st Army of Guzhuang Ganlang.

Tadajun's real entry into the Chinese battlefield has to start from 1938, before which Tada Jun had always served in his own country, but after the Battle of Wuhan, Tada Jun and the new army vice minister Hideki Tojo were not on good terms, and there were often conflicts. In December of the same year, Tada Jun was driven out of the central government and transferred to Hunchun in Manchuria as the commander of the 3rd Army. Later, he served as the commander of the North China Front, but after the Nomenkan incident, it was proved that the fears of Tada's faction were correct, and when Nobuyuki Abe formed a cabinet, Tada was called for Tada to serve as land minister, but Emperor Showa first sent Anan Yuki to find the commander of the 11th Army at the time, Okamura Ninji, Okamura said that he would rather stay at the front line, so the emperor appointed his attendant Nagata Shun to serve as the sixth land minister, so that he could not take office. During his tenure in the North China Front, he vigorously pursued a cage policy and carried out intensive division of the opposing base areas, which greatly reduced the room for maneuver of the Eighth Route Army. But because the main forces were placed on the side of the Yellow River to confront Wei Lihuang's Central Army, the Eighth Route Army was left cold and fought a hundred-regiment battle behind him. Deeply feeling that his troops were insufficient, after receiving reinforcements from a division, he fought a battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, which eliminated the power of the Chinese central army in North China, freed up the forces of at least three divisions and regiments, and gave him a great deal of strength and laid the foundation for his successor Okamura Ninji to sweep the anti-Japanese base areas behind enemy lines.

But for the ending of Tada Jun, Han Yunhua also knew that the North China Front Army in the Battle of Tojo Mountain did play a majestic role, but it could not change the fate of Tada Jun himself. The battle of 100 regiments in North China not only stimulated Chiang Kai-shek but also stimulated the high-level of the company, and for Tada Jun, who made Tubalu develop into the "culprit" of hundreds of thousands of troops, the base camp adopted a method of hiding in the snow, and promoted Tada Jun to the army general, and promoted to the military council, which was actually an idle position, and in this way, Tada Jun was beaten into the cold palace.

Although these things are only known to Han Yunhua himself, Qian Zhuangfei and his intelligence department can't find out, but even some of the most basic things have not been figured out, which makes Han Yunhua very dissatisfied, so Han Yunhua criticized Qian Zhuangfei and the entire intelligence department for the first time.

Qian Zhuangfei accepted Han Yunhua's criticism, because during this period of time, the military region's troop reorganization, officer transfer, and so on were a large team, and these had to be reviewed by the intelligence department, and a large number of newly captured soldiers also needed to be screened, and the puppet army needed to search for its officers, etc., so the intelligence department was seriously understaffed, so its ability to collect intelligence from the outside has declined.

Han Yunhua also knew that what Qian Zhuangfei said was the truth, so he did not reprimand Qian Zhuangfei excessively, but just asked him to collect information about the North China Front Army and Tatian Jun as soon as possible. Because Han Yunhua knew that this Tada Jun was not as kind as he appeared on the surface, the "cage policy" that really threatened the battlefield behind the enemy of the Eighth Route Army in history was proposed by this person and "carried forward" by Okamura Ningji, and it was precisely because he was forced too tightly by Tada Jun that Mr. Peng would take the risk of launching the Battle of the Hundred Regiments.

However, soon Han Yunhua paid little attention to Tada Jun, a toothless tiger, and he knew that if there was no half a year of rest, the entire North China Front Army would not be able to recover its combat effectiveness, and even if the military department gave Tada Jun one million reinforcements, it would be in vain. Therefore, Han Yunhua quickly shifted his attention to the interior of the military region, and now the various departments of the Inner Mongolia Military Region perform their duties and are extremely efficient, so there are not many things that need Han Yunhua's instructions.

However, this does not mean that Han Yunhua can be idle, and the facts show that Han Yunhua has never returned home since he picked up Li Yuhan from the rear headquarters two days ago, because he has devoted all his energy to the intensive training of special operations units.

By October 1939, the Inner Mongolia Military Region had a total of 5,312 special combat personnel, of which only 412 were left in the first batch of 716 special combat personnel, and the rest had already died in their country. The number of the second batch of special combat personnel is more than 1,500 people, but because Han Yunhua did not personally train them, their combat effectiveness has not reached Han Yunhua's standard, and in addition, the Inner Mongolia Military Region has always adopted the method of training special combat teams in battle, so there are only 1,023 special combat personnel left in this group by the end of the North China battle, and the third group of special combat personnel are students who have just graduated from the Saibei Military Command College, and have not yet been recognized by Han Yunhua. Therefore, Han Yunhua was ready to take advantage of the favorable time for the troops to rest and recuperate to conduct a three-month intensive training for the whole army, and he himself personally led the team to train the special combat team.

Among the more than 400 members of the special combat team, including the first batch of more than 400 special combat units, Li Dingguo, Wei Peng, Kong Yang, Wang Xiaohu, and others served as instructors, but all the training syllabus was drawn up by Han Yunhua himself. According to the intensive training plan formulated by Han Yunhua, the entire training is divided into three stages, the first stage is physical training, the second stage is skill training, and the third stage is comprehensive ability practice.

The specific training method of the first stage is the same, all technical units get up at 5:30 in the morning, add 20 kilograms of weight to each person and run 5,000 meters. 8:00 Training hook ladder up and down 300 times. 300 trips through 30 meters of barbed wire. 10:00 Field physical training: 5km cross-country carrying logs. 13:30 Anti-sun body training: Hold AK47 flat, hang a brick with a rope on the muzzle, and dry motionless for 2 hours. 16:00 Target shooting training for 1 hour, after which I practiced reverse gong sanda, hard qigong, etc.

At the same time, half an hour after meals every day, continue to run 5,000 meters with a weight of 20 kilograms. Swim training once every 3 days: wear a thick military uniform and liberation shoes to swim 5,000 meters in one go. A Chinese-style triathlon once every 5 days: 2000 meters of weight-bearing running, 2000 meters of swimming, and 2000 meters of cycling. 7 days of 25 km weight 30 kg cross-country marching training.

The first stage of training is mainly for physical training, so Han Yunhua concentrated the troops in the barracks on the outskirts of Guisui for conduct, and also formulated a severe punishment system, yes, it is indeed called the punishment system, there is no reward for doing a good job, but if the training task cannot be completed, then from the soldiers who cannot complete the training to the officers responsible for leading the team will be severely punished, at least to increase the intensity of training and training time, or to kick out of the team directly. Although these special combat personnel are all elites who have been selected and have undergone at least one year of rigorous training, not all of them can complete such perverted training, especially carrying hundreds of pounds of logs for long-distance cross-country, which has brushed many people.

If you can do this, you are only just stepping into the threshold of special forces, and if you want to become a real special forces, you will also have to carry out the second stage of professional training. The second stage of training is much more professional, this stage is divided into different teams according to the division of labor, machine gunners train machine gunners, assassination group training assassination group, and sniper training group is trained by Han Yunhua himself.

Han Yunhua was born in special forces, so he knows all the components of the special combat team very well, it can be said that although the roles in a combat group are different, and their important surnames are also different, Han Yunhua believes that the most important thing should be a sniper. The main role of a sniper is to carry out precision strikes on valuable targets, such as strategic targets such as enemy commanders and various technical arms, as well as targets such as enemy artillery fire observers and communication facilities. And another role of the sniper is to find and annihilate the enemy's snipers, because the best way to deal with snipers is sniper confrontation, although the use of artillery for large-scale bombing can also play a role in dealing with snipers, but the price is still too great, like the sniper confrontation in the scene of the movie "Soldiers in the City" is the best way to deal with snipers.

Inflicting the greatest price on the enemy at the lowest cost is the fundamental purpose of Han Yunhua's unsparing efforts to train snipers. Snipers often carry out orders such as designated sniping, patrol hunting, destruction of non-hard equipment, patrol and vigilance, and fire support. Snipers don't just aim to kill or injure the opposing team, in fact they can often play a tactical role that ordinary infantry can't achieve. For example, a sniper can disable a tank crew, a vehicle's fuel tanks, water tanks, tires, helicopters' main and tail rotors, optoelectronic observers, airborne ammunition, periscopes, and communications equipment. It is possible to delay the combat operations of enemy bases by destroying critical equipment, etc. In addition, weak links such as ammunition depots, fuel depots, and command headquarters are also very easy to become high-value tactical targets for snipers. A sniper attack from the oil depot can be fired through the oil drum with one soft bullet with lead, and then detonated with one incendiary or tracer bullet when the fuel is everywhere, which will definitely cause an uncontrollable mess. Even if the first batch of special combat personnel went through Han Yunhua's two trainings, they could not meet Han Yunhua's requirements for special combat teams, so this time Han Yunhua specially took a lot of time to conduct intensive training for special combat teams, especially snipers, hoping to train a real special forces.
