If the fall of Pingxian did not make Lao Chiang really determined to resist the war. Then, when the Red Army began to reorganize and successively took over the defense of Xi'an, which was handed over by the Northeast Army, the Battle of Songhu began, so that Lao Chiang knew that there was no way out.

For the little devils fighting on two fronts, one south and one north, even those who have illusions about the Japanese army know that no one has a second choice except for fighting to the death. The so-called international intervention is simply not to be counted on.

On the second day of the Battle of Songhu, the Nationalist Government finally issued a 'Declaration of Self-Defense and War of Resistance'. The issuance of this statement also realized that this national war related to the fortunes of China had officially opened and begun.

In order to better organize the front-line anti-Japanese war of the reorganized Eighth Route Army, the Central Revolutionary Military Committee was established in accordance with the resolution of the Central Committee. Mao Taizu, who served as secretary of the Military Commission, also became chairman from Mao in the eyes of many officers and soldiers of the Eighth Route Army.

As the independent division commander of the Eighth Route Army, He Zhengdao's independent division was under the dual jurisdiction of the Central Committee and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters. Even the task of advancing into North China was the main division of the remaining Eighth Route Army, and the independent division was more likely to deal with the Japanese army in the direction of Suiyuan and northern Jin.

The headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, after taking over Xi'an, set Xi'an as the location of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army. That's why. Lao Chiang, who hoped that the Red Army and the Northeast Army would go to the front as soon as possible, could only agree to hand over Xi'an to the Red Army in the end.

In fact. He can't even if he doesn't want to give it. The reason is simple, the main force of a division of the Red Army, which completed the reorganization. It has successfully taken over Tongguan, a military stronghold that has entered Shaanxi. If the Central Army wants to enter Shaanxi, it can only attack.

Now that the Japanese army is beginning to wreak havoc in the back garden of the Central Army, and then confronting the Red Army, which is already in full swing, Lao Chiang knows very well what the consequences will be. It is precisely because of this that Lao Jiang soon transferred the troops deployed in Tongguan to other areas to fight.

The time for going to the front line has not yet been determined, and the reorganized Eighth Route Army has also accelerated the completion of the reorganization of troops. The Eighth Route Army, which took Xi'an, was also busy with this mess.

As for He Zhengdao, who lives in Yulin. Although nominally he had the title of commander of an independent division of the Eighth Route Army of the People's Republic of China, internally he was still the commander of the independent column of the Red Army. Everything seems to be no different from before the reorganization.

In the area where the headquarters was busy reorganizing and choosing to enter the anti-Japanese war, He Zhengdao's reconnaissance brigade was almost all dispatched. The Suixi Military Division has also become more and more busy. Because He Zhengdao is clear, the pace of war is not far from Yulin.

When the Battle of Songhu began, a conference was also being held around the Nankou area. The 35th Army, which was originally stationed in Suiyuan, was also pulled out by Yan Xishan's main force. This also means that Suiyuan's defense is empty.

The Suixi Military Sub-district was formed for more than half a year. Despite the fact that only the Ordos region was controlled. But for the Japanese army, it is undoubtedly one of the objects they need to solve. And tried to advance into Yulin from the direction of Shenmu.

Looking at the report sent back by the scouts in front, He Zhengdao smiled and said, "Okay! It seems that we are independent columns. It's also time to pull out and yo-yo. I'd like to see how many troops the little devils are willing to add here. ”

Wang Tianlin, as the chief of staff, also smiled and said, "Commander." It seems that the little devils still attach great importance to us, what about sending a mixed brigade? It's another car and a cannon. It's also menacing! ”

'Yes! And don't forget, they also have planes to support them! But. Anyway, they all took the initiative to send it to the door, and if they didn't eat this mixed brigade, how embarrassing it would be! Command the troops, get ready for battle.

Telegrams were sent to the central authorities and the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, saying that the independent division was ready to enter the battle and was bound to block the invading enemy outside our defense area. If possible, the Gohara region, which is currently occupied by the Japanese army, will be recovered. ’

With the dispatch of this telegram, the Central Committee and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters quickly replied, telling the independent divisions that were preparing to go out to fight to boost the morale of the Red Army. It is also good that the soldiers and civilians of the War of Resistance who are currently losing and retreating will be a little happy.

At present, the Battle of Songhu has entered a stalemate stage, but the Battle of Zhoukou is not ideal, and the troops of the First and Second War Zones, which are retreating one after another, even if they are very tenacious, are still difficult to resist the soldiers of the little devils, and the flames of war have burned to the territory of Shanxi.

The Eighth Route Army, which has completed the transfer of the defense area, has already left for Shanxi with four main divisions to prepare to participate in the Battle of Xinkou, which is currently being prepared by Yan Xishan. This also means that the Red Army, which was reorganized into the Eighth Route Army, officially entered the anti-Japanese battlefield.

The four main divisions of the Eighth Route Army were the 115th Division reorganized from the Red First Army, the 120th Division reorganized from the Red Second Army Corps, the 129th Division reorganized from the ****** Regiment, and the 127th Division reorganized from the Red Fifth Army Corps, with more than 60,000 people advancing into Shanxi.

Regarding the war in Xinkou, He Zhengdao also felt that this time the Eighth Route Army was strong and strong, and in this battle, it should be able to take on more important tasks! However, He Zhengdao still hoped that the casualties of the four divisions would not be too large.

After all, the main division of the Red Army after reorganization basically maintained a scale of about 15,000 people. Most of the officers and men selected for the main division, except for the backbone of the Red Army who participated in the Long March, were recruits from various regiments who had undergone rigorous training.

Knowing that Suixi fought well here, it would also be helpful to the upcoming Battle of Xinkou, so He Zhengdao decided to show the enemy weakness and lead the enemy to in-depth combat deployment. The main force of the first division was secretly placed near Daqingshan to hide and stand by.

The defense task of the Suixi Army Division was entrusted to the Second Division to be responsible for organization. The cavalry division formed in Suixi was ready to fight as a reserve force. And He Zhengdao himself, leading the reconnaissance brigade and the saber, was also stationed in the headquarters of the Suixi Military Division.

Looking at the well-repaired defensive position, He Zhengdao was also very satisfied and said: "Renyi, you must fight the next battle for me." This time, I want the little devils who come from afar to really understand what it means to ride a tiger.

When defending, it is not necessary to pull the main force of the whole division up at once. This time, the troops we have mobilized, plus the garrison troops of the cavalry division and the Suixi Army Division, are nearly 60,000 people. Can't you solve the invading Japanese army?

Tell our soldiers that once they shoot, they will shoot hard, and the little devil's marksmanship will not be worse than ours. In addition to artillery support, it is believed that when the war is unfavorable, aircraft will be sent to help in the war.

Therefore, I want to bleed the little devil in this place in Dongsheng. Compared with the previous raid on Bailing Temple, this time it was the real elite of the Japanese army. Their artillery strength is much better than ours! ”

'Please rest assured, commander, as long as there is one person in our position, we will never let the little devils break through our army's position. ’

Even if the enemy who knew about this attack, in addition to the 15th Brigade of the little devil's independent mixed division, there were two cavalry infantry units of more than 20,000 people in the pseudo-Mongolian division. But the main force that served as the defense was also dominated by the 2nd Division of the Independent Column.

The rest of the garrison units of the Suixi Army Division will also cooperate with the Second Division for defense. As for the artillery regiment brought by He Zhengdao, as well as the reconnaissance brigade and the saber special operations detachment, they will also cooperate with the Second Division to launch corresponding defensive counterattacks at an appropriate time.

With the steady advance of the Japanese army on the front line and the beginning of entering the defense area of the Suixi Army Division, He Zhengdao issued the order to block the enemy. Even if there is no good terrain in Suixi, you can still find a way to block the little devil uncomfortable.

The reconnaissance brigade commanded by Li Xiangdong was buried in the place where the little devils must pass, and began to carry out a sneak attack in the form of a raid. And this kind of sneak attack, also aware of the independent column and the little devils, there is not much time left.

Looking at the troops that stopped advancing again, Major General Nagumo Genichiro, the brigade commander of the 15th Brigade Regiment, said somewhat angrily: "Yaga, why can't our outpost force drive away these damn sneak attackers?" ”

Since entering the defense area of the Suixi Military Division, Nagumo Kissichiro has found out. The troops he brought with him began to have dead and wounded. What made him even more uneasy was that none of the troops sent out to pursue him seemed to have returned.

'Our cavalry squad, haven't they come back yet?' ’

Thinking of the cavalry squad sent earlier, Nagumo Kissichiro regretted it somewhat. In his opinion, it was right to send the puppet Mongolian cavalry that was ahead of them to pursue them. No matter how much they lose, Nagumo Kissichiro will not feel distressed.

'Report to Your Excellency, General, that no pursuing team has returned yet. Those sneak attack soldiers in China have high-quality war horses to travel. After the shooting, they fled without pausing.

It can be seen that they are also full of fear of our arrival. We have already arrived in the Dongsheng area, and we may be able to start fighting in advance. Let the Imperial Army, which is cooperating with us, test the enemy's firepower. ’

In order to avenge the previous Red Army's sneak attack on Bailing Temple, the 15th Mixed Brigade from Baotou this time also specially dispatched two pseudo-Mongolian cavalry divisions to cooperate in the battle. The total number of troops is nearly 30,000, which can be said to be a bloody investment.

As far as the current situation detected by the Japanese army is concerned, most of the main forces of the Red Army stationed in Suixi are placed in the core area of Dongsheng for defense. In order to take this place, the annihilation of the Red Army stationed here was also the task of the 15 mixed brigades of this trip.

Listening to the suggestion of the brigade chief of staff, Nagumo Kinichiro nodded and said, "Yo!" Ordered the cavalry division of the Imperial Allied Army to increase the vigilance line and drive away from the nearby places where there were war horses. To ensure that the advance of our Imperial Japanese Army will not be attacked again.

Secondly, order the infantry divisions of the Imperial Allied Army to be ready to serve the Imperial Army at any time. If they can take Dongsheng City, after returning to Baotou, I will take credit for them. Spread these commands! ”

'Hey! ’

After the order of the Japanese army was issued, the commanders of the puppet Mongolian cavalry infantry divisions who received the task knew that they had no choice. Since the defeat of the Suiyuan War of Resistance in the previous round, the little devil's control over the puppet army has become more and more strict.

And this time they fought with the 15 mixed brigades, and Nagumo Genichiro was their supreme commander. Even if they know that the next battle will not be good, they must go hard. Who let them, themselves cannon fodder troops!
