Hirata's words brought Tada Jun and others back to the point, yes, it's useless to say so much, the most important thing now is to find a way to solve the current dilemma. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After a long time, Tada Juncai said in a deep voice: "Since you promised to trade with the Shina people, there is no need to go back, but we can't just eat this loss." Kasawara-kun, when will our reinforcements arrive? ”

Yukio Kasawara immediately replied: "The reinforcements promised to us by the base camp have landed in the port of Tianjin, and a large number of weapons and equipment are on the way to North China, and it is expected to arrive in Tianjin in ten days." ”

"Yo Xi, those newly arrived reinforcements should give priority to filling the vacancies of the First Army, and in addition, the Fifth Division will immediately return to Shimen and be stationed, waiting for the order of the Front Army Headquarters at any time!"

"Your Excellency, Commander, do you plan to continue to use troops against Shanxi?" Yukio Kasahara asked in surprise.

Tada Jun said in a deep voice: "Kasahara-kun, now that the Tsuchihachi Road has grown in wings, in terms of the strength of the entire Tsuchihachi Road, they may not be much worse than the front army, so it is not wise to fight with them. But the government forces in China are different, their strength in North China has fallen to the top, and we are fully capable of driving them all out of the North China region. ”

"Your Excellency, Commander, since the government forces are already so weak, what's the point of us striking them?"

"Chief of Staff, there are three meanings of striking at the government army in China, the first is naturally from a military point of view, although the strength of the government army in North China is extremely weak, but it is still not without a threat to the front army. This time, the main force of the China War II Zone besieged Taiyuan, causing great losses to the front army, so it is necessary for us to completely annihilate this China army. ”

"The second is that the front army is demoralized after a series of blows, and we need a hearty victory to boost morale. Finally, the most important point is that fighting a war, like doing anything else, must be easy first and then difficult, in short, pick up soft persimmons and pinch them. As far as these resistance forces in North China are concerned, Chiang's government forces are undoubtedly the soft persimmons. ”

The new commander of the First Army, Lieutenant General Yoshio Shinozuka, immediately spoke: "Your Excellency the Commander is reasonable, and I suggest that this operation should be mainly aimed at dealing with the defense line of Nakajo Mountain in China!" The main combat goal is to defeat the main force of the China War II Zone! ”

"Yo Xi! Shinozuka-kun is exactly what I want, so let's discuss the details of this battle..."

......

At the same time as the conditions were being discussed to deal with the Nationalist Government, Ma Zheng was making temporary arrangements in Guisui. The matter on the side of the Suicha Military Region is basically over, and the rest is only a matter of exchanging prisoners with the North China Front, but this kind of thing is familiar to Yun Jian and others, and there is no need for Ma Zheng to come forward. In addition, there are still many things in Shandong that need to be handled by Ma Zheng urgently, so Ma Zheng decided to return to the Shandong front with Xie Wensheng and others.

Before leaving, Ma Zheng inspected the Baotou Military Sub-district, where he saw a rapidly emerging heavy industrial city, where a large number of steel plants, power plants, arsenals, and explosives factories were being built at an astonishing speed.

In addition, Ma Zheng transported all the industrial equipment worth tens of millions of dollars from Zamyn-Uud to Baotou, and he demanded that the Suixi Military Sub-district should build Baotou, a heavy industrial city, at all costs.

On November 20, after staying in Guisui for nearly half a month, Ma Zheng took Xie Wensheng's department to Shandong.

It was already five days later when they returned to Luxi, but fortunately, the troops had trains on the way from Guisui to Datong, otherwise it would have been impossible to arrive at such a long distance without ten days.

Lu Xi is still the same, when Ma Zheng led his troops to attack Qingdao, he specially left Lu Guoqiang to lead a regiment of troops to fight guerrillas. Originally, the 10th Brigade of the Japanese Army was ready to carry out a comprehensive encirclement and suppression of Lu Guoqiang's headquarters, but unfortunately, just before its action, the headquarters of the 12th Army received the news of the attack on Qingdao and immediately ordered all units to stop all actions.

During this time, with the withdrawal of Ma Zheng's headquarters from Qingdao, the Japanese troops in various places once again relieved themselves. When Ma Zheng and the others returned to Luxi, they happened to encounter the 10th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade to encircle and suppress Lu Guoqiang's headquarters.

Ma Zheng immediately commanded Xie Wensheng's troops to join the battle, and in a very short period of time, the three Japanese brigades that came to encircle and suppress were defeated, and the Japanese army's encirclement and suppression were crushed.

But just as Ma Zheng walked to Tai'an, news suddenly came from behind him, saying that the four divisions of the main force of the Japanese army had actually moved south, lined up on the line from Shimen to Taiyuan, and I didn't know what I wanted.

Hearing this, Ma Zheng was greatly surprised, and he didn't know what the Japanese army was preparing to do in this move, whether the Japanese army was not enjoying enough fighting in the Pingjin area, or whether it was that the Pingjin battle suffered heavy losses, and he felt deeply embarrassed, and was ready to be ashamed.

At that moment, Ma Zheng ordered all units of the Suicha Military Region to immediately prepare for battle, and at the same time ordered all units of Luxi to also prepare for battle and meet the Japanese attack at any time.

But as the news kept coming, Ma Zheng found that the Japanese army did not seem to be coming at him this time, because a large number of Japanese puppet troops did not come to Pingyuan Town and Ningwu Pass, where the Suicha Military Region was stationed, but went south directly after completing the assembly in Taiyuan, and stationed in Yuncheng, Shanxi and Xinxiang, Henan in the shortest possible time.

Speaking of Tojo Mountain, the Japanese are also deeply helpless. After the invading Japanese army launched the Lugou Bridge Incident, it quickly captured the Pingjin area with lightning speed, and then captured Taiyuan, the capital of Shanxi Province, at the end of 1937.

According to the established strategic plan of the Japanese army, after capturing Shanxi, the army should cross the Yellow River east to capture Shaanxi as quickly as possible, and then advance all the way west until the entire Chinese mainland was captured.

In March 1938, the Japanese army, with the 20th Division as the main force and a large number of heavy equipment troops, came to Fenglingdu, Shanxi, preparing to cross the Yellow River east and invade Shaanxi.

At this time, Sun Weiru, who succeeded Yang Hucheng in charge of the Northwest Army, had not yet fully gained a foothold. But he still swore to the Nationalist Government and the people of Shaanxi: "Yu will serve the country with his flesh and blood, sacrifice his life to resist the Japanese invaders, and vow to fight the Japanese invaders to the end!" But when I heard the roar of the Yellow River, I didn't ask for the horse leather shroud to return ......"

Four months later, a team of more than 30,000 Lengwa from Shaanxi Province crossed the Yellow River at night and drove into Zhongtiao Mountain on the north bank of the Yellow River. At the beginning of the war, the Japanese army poured more than 100,000 troops to attack Dongtiao Mountain, but they were all repulsed, and for more than two years, the North China Front Army failed to cross Zhongtiao Mountain one step, which was indeed rare in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War. The most important thing is that it is not the elite Central Army of the Nationalist Government, nor the Jin Sui Army of Yan Laoxi, but the Northwest Army, which is famous for its inferior weapons and equipment and being squeezed out by ******.

From the day Sun Weiru crossed the river to fight, Zhongtiao Mountain, a little-known mountain range in Xi'an, became a place where Xi'an people dreamed overnight. People know that it is the barrier of the Yellow River, that it is the barrier of Shaanxi and even the northwest, and that there is a cruel war going on there. And the outcome of this war will be directly related to the safety of Shaanxi and the safety of ancient Chang'an.

The aggressors of this war were the Japanese devils who exterminated humanity, and the bloody ones who fought with them were more than 30,000 brave and unyielding officers and soldiers in Shaanxi, and more than 30,000 sons and daughters of the Sanqin who were connected with flesh and blood.

This group of Shaanxi soldiers persisted in Zhongtiao Mountain for several years, smashed 11 sweeps of the Japanese army, and prevented the Japanese devils who could not occupy China for three months outside Tongguan, so that their dream of entering Guanzhong and plundering the northwest died in the womb. In recent years, the Japanese army occupied a large area of territory in the eastern, southern, and northern regions, but it has been unable to advance westward, all thanks to the great victory in the Battle of Nakajo Mountain.

In order to break through the defense line of Nakajo Mountain, the Japanese army paid a heavy price, and in one of the battles alone, more than 1,700 urns of officers above the rank of second lieutenant squad leader of the Japanese army were piled up on top of each other. This is one of the theaters in which China has achieved great results in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and it can be said that it is the backbone of China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.
