Chapter 810: The enemy has changed, and I have changed

While the squadron was rapidly adjusting and actively responding, the Japanese army did not stop its aggressive and expanding actions for a moment, and the distribution adjustment of China's 280,000 troops had just been drafted and had not yet been adopted by all of them, and the Japanese army had already learned the details through various means and channels.

In response to the deployment of the squadron, the Japanese army quickly adjusted its troop allocation, and the original plan of dividing the troops into three routes to the south has also become a more flexible and pragmatic northern, central and southern three routes: the southern route attacks the eastern line of the Great Wall to the Lingnan line; The central route is to go east to west, attacking Rehe; The troops on the northern route increased greatly, using Tongliao, which had already been occupied as a springboard, to quickly advance to the Chifeng area, and finally occupied Guisui (Hohhot), and attacked Shanxi with the Japanese army in the middle route.

For the Japanese army's drastic strategic adjustment, the squadron knows nothing, but the Japanese army is clear about the details of the squadron's deployment, originally there is a huge gap between the two sides in terms of weapons and equipment, technical level, army delivery, officer and soldier training, logistics support, etc., and now coupled with the gap in military intelligence, the passive defense of the squadron is in an even more difficult situation.

In fact, as early as mid-December last year, An Yi took the lead in putting forward the operational idea of "active defense," and he himself followed this principle and went all out to do so.

An Yi's line of thought is: In view of the huge gap in the backward equipment of our army and the tactical quality of officers and men, it is far from enough to adopt passive regional coordinated defense, block the pace of the Japanese army's advance through positional warfare that is strictly defended to the death, and strive to connect the entire defense line hundreds of kilometers long into a whole to the greatest extent and consume the Japanese army's vital forces to the greatest extent. In this way, the goal of striking at the enemy's vital forces, disrupting the enemy's troop deployment and offensive plan, and finally achieving the goal of completing the overall defense.

However, few people agreed with An Yi's opinion, and after Chairman Chiang and the Central Military Commission received An Yi's proposal report, they did not respond at anything, and even a few high-ranking and powerful generals scoffed at this, believing that in the face of the well-trained and powerful Japanese army, An Yi's so-called initiative to attack was tantamount to sending sheep into the tiger's mouth, and only by taking strict precautions and consuming the manpower and material resources of the Japanese army to finally achieve the goal of retreating from the enemy was a wise move.

After An Yi achieved one victory after another that shocked the whole country and inspired the people's hearts through the practice of the three divisions, all kinds of discordant voices sounded again: if Lao Tzu's army also had such advanced and powerful equipment as An Jiajun's army, Lao Tzu would also be able to go out of the customs and come back from a few victories...... It is okay to let the headquarters go out of the customs, but it must be distributed with weapons and equipment of the same level as the Anjia Army, and the same military salary must be issued to the Anjia Army, otherwise everything will not be discussed......

It was precisely because of such and such reasons that An Yi, who was anxious but helpless, had no choice but to dispel the idea of persuading the generals of all departments to take the initiative.

After thinking about it, An Yi was unwilling, and in a fit of anger, he slightly deleted and revised the report of more than 5,000 words, and once again sent someone to He Jing under the pseudonym of "Yi'an" and published it in the famous "Oriental Outlook" magazine.

After the publication of the magazine, military attaches and military observers of various countries in China attached great importance to it, and various comments on the military strategic thinking during the Sino-Japanese War came out one after another, and the response was extremely strong. An Yi's article was quickly reprinted in the publications of European and American countries, and when Mr. Weitzel, the head of the advisory group, hurriedly approached Chairman Chiang with the magazine for discussion, Chairman Chiang embarrassedly told him: The author is none other than An Yi, the commander-in-chief of the North China Front, and because the armies are far behind the several divisions commanded by An Yi in terms of equipment and training, and because they have long harbored awe and fear of the Japanese army, almost none of the generals support An Yi's opinion, so the Central Military Commission cannot force the armies to take the initiative to attack like An Yi's subordinates.

Weitzer was a very shrewd and far-sighted military strategist, and he only said one sentence, which left Chairman Chiang speechless and lamented frequently, and finally Weitzel could only look up to the sky and sigh and go away melancholy. Weitzel's words are: From all aspects of analysis, the Red Army is not much better than the squadron relative to the Japanese army, or even worse, because the Central Army has a great advantage in numbers, but the strategy and tactics adopted by the Red Army in the previous anti-encirclement and suppression are very similar to General An's thinking, not to mention that General An has fully proved his correctness with brilliant achievements, why can't everyone treat it rationally?

On the contrary, he was more cautious and more proactive in seeking effective ways to eliminate the effective forces of the Japanese army; while organizing the staff team to repeatedly discuss and carefully summarize, he fully mobilized the enthusiasm of commanders at all levels; on the premise of not violating the pre-war established principles and regulations on the use of troops, An Yi allowed all units to draw up operational plans in accordance with their own ideas and methods, and once the examination and approval was passed, they immediately delegated their powers, and gave commanders at all levels the greatest initiative and logistical support.

This time, their target was not the Japanese army, but the puppet Manchurian ace unit that was given priority by the Japanese army with the same weapons as the Japanese cavalry, and strictly followed the Japanese army's various drills and regulations from training to management-the First Cavalry Regiment of the Fengtian Garrison Army.

The direct leader of this well-equipped cavalry, which had more than 50 Japanese military advisers, was none other than Yu Zhishan, a former general of the Northeast Army and a traitor who became the deputy minister of the puppet Manchurian ** Ministry of Government and the commander of the Fengtian garrison after defecting to the Japanese.

In the Bodhisattva temple under the wind and snow, the lights are bright, the charcoal fire is blazing, this temple is located on the riverside and covers a wide area, and now it has become the headquarters of Gu Changfeng and Yang Jiuxiao, the radio antenna above the flag erected high in front of the temple is condensed with crystal snowflakes, the east and west halls of the main hall have become telecommunications rooms and staff rooms, and the two large square tables used for sacrifice are spread with a newly made topographic map of western Liaoning, Yang Jiuxiao, Tong Zhiqiang, Ni Xianrong, Liang Zhenyu and other generals are around Gu Changfeng, Keep a close eye on the intelligence staff officer's location and surroundings on the map.

The Bodhisattva Temple is located 25 kilometers south-east of Lingyuan, 30 kilometers away from Karaqin in the northeast, and 43 kilometers away from Jianchang occupied by the Japanese army in the south.

"Arriving at Lamagou is twenty minutes later than expected, it seems that these nineteen kilometers are not easy to walk!" Chief of Staff Liang Zhenyu looked at the map and shook his head.

Ni Zhiqiang raised his head in annoyance: "Isn't it?" It is estimated that I ran into Guo Haiqing's shitty cavalry patrol again, otherwise where would I have to walk for more than four hours on this road? Those grandsons who betrayed their ancestors and had no assholes are really fucking black-hearted, working hard for little Japan is more energetic than when they were in our Northeast Army, and the two regiments stationed in the camp of Jianchang Toudao are also as fucking bad, and they have been hanging around us for half a month, if it weren't for the Qi Xiuping brothers who were annoyed and sent his seventeen snipers to lie in the snow and set up an ambush for a day and a night, and finally killed the twenty-four search team of the puppet army cavalry brigade, it is estimated that we would not even have a place to hide. Fortunately, the planes can't go up to the sky in this dog's weather, otherwise the whereabouts of our large army will be exposed, and we will have to be bombed indiscriminately by dozens of planes in Little Japan, fuck his uncle's ......"

Gu Changfeng grinned, he knew the pain and anger in the hearts of Ni Zhiqiang and Yang Jiuxiao and other senior brothers, they had been fighting side by side for many days, and they had formed a deep friendship with each other, and their understanding of each other was increasing day by day, like brothers, coupled with Gu Changfeng's informal character, so he was very accustomed to the foul language of the second senior brother, and occasionally made a few meat jokes, making fun of suffering.

Gu Changfeng understood what Yang Jiuxiao and Ni Zhiqiang and other Duer Senior Brothers were feeling at the moment, after all, it was very uncomfortable to be searched by the original cavalry brothers and today's traitorous puppet army in the ice and snow, and what was even more infuriating and helpless was that this team of cavalrymen who were willing to be the lackeys of the Japanese army was very strong, all of them had superb riding skills, they came and went like the wind, and they could retreat from the encounter with the reconnaissance troops of the headquarters. These cavalrymen dared to follow behind and monitor from afar, and on two of them they actually beat the reconnaissance team of the Second Division to the point that only one or two people were left to flee back, how could they not let Yang Jiuxiao, Ni Zhiqiang, and the brothers of the Second Division, who were all composed of children from the Northeast, grit their teeth?

This time, taking advantage of the fact that Lu Yixuan and Yan Yaohuan led 20,000 brothers to withdraw to Guannei, creating the illusion that the army was leaving, Gu Changfeng, Yang Jiuxiao and others led the four selected regiments and 10,000 elites to quietly go north, day and night, tossing and turning in the ice and snow for four days and four nights, and went through a lot of hardships to successfully touch the Bodhisattva Temple in the remote mountainous area between Lingyuan and Karaqin, in order to clean up this traitor cavalry force and play a deterrent effect of killing one hundred people.

Everyone discussed for a moment, and Gu Changfeng turned his head and asked Lu Yanqing, the brigade commander who led the main force of the Second Division: "Yanqing, are your brothers ready?" ”

"Get ready, all of them are lurking in the house of the Niejiagou villagers five kilometers away from the three-way intersection, just wait for the brothers of the special brigade to return from the attack, let's put on the original messy clothes, put a round of guns and run. It's just that...... The younger brother was worried that the Yamazaki brigade at Peach Blossom Pond, five kilometers to the south, would not pursue. Lu Yanqing frowned slightly and expressed his worries.

Gu Changfeng laughed: "No problem, if the enemy doesn't chase it, forget it, our three main regiments withdraw to Kuancheng, it's not a big deal, the next thing is a battle, anyway, the special brigade is now in Tongdingsi Town in the north, and at least half of Guo Haiqing's regiment can be killed at dawn, and it is enough to take back one hundred and ten horses." But I judge that little Japan will chase it out, let's get into their hinterland and it hard, how can little Japan swallow this bad breath? Now that Jianping and Ling Yuan are under the guns of the Eighth Division of the Japanese Army, the Sixth Division that was beaten by us last time is left in Jianchang and Karaqin, and he can't vent his grievances, let's slap him again, can he not be like thunder? ”

Yang Jiuxiao agreed: "Little Japan will definitely chase after me, but I'm always worried that Brother Qi has cut all the telephone lines, and the Japanese troops in Tongding Temple in the south don't know that they will be attacked by us." ”

"It's okay, the chief of the communications section went with Lao Qi, he knows how to lure the Japanese army out." Liang Zhenyu said with a smile.

When everyone heard this, they no longer had any opinions, Gu Changfeng looked at his watch, and decisively ordered: The remaining two regiments should get up and eat immediately, fill their stomachs and set off to set up an ambush immediately!
