Chapter 580: Doubts (Third Update!! )

[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 580: Doubts (Ask for subscriptions, ask for monthly passes, ask for everything!) )

There are victories and defeats in wars, and there should be rewards and punishments, this is the correct way to manage the army, which Ma Zheng knows better than anyone else. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

However, due to the limited funds of the troops and the relevant regulations of the Eighth Route Army, it was very difficult for Ma Zheng to give some bonuses to the soldiers, and every time the troops gained a little, they were all subsidized to the pensions of the dead and disabled soldiers.

Fortunately, it has finally improved now, this time after Ma Zheng sent the good news to Yan'an, he specially applied for a reward for the meritorious unit with the chairman and others, but he didn't expect Yan'an to pass it quickly, so there will be this cash reward.

Seeing the heartfelt smiles of the officers, Ma Zheng was of course happier in his heart.

"Everyone is quiet first, and the army will form a routine in the future, and there will be rewards and punishments in the post-war summary, and the rewards under the military region are divided into two categories and four levels, two categories refer to collective and individual, and level 4 refers to special merit, first-class merit, second-class merit, and third-class merit. The rewards are divided into material rewards and spiritual rewards according to categories and levels, material rewards are of course money, real money, before the establishment of our own bank, all the subsidy bounties we issued to the soldiers were all issued by the silver dollars that were preserved, and things like fiat currency and military tickets were forgotten. ”

Then Ma Zheng continued: "Spiritual rewards include medals, honorary titles, honorary certificates, etc., but at present, we will only award honorary certificates to officers and soldiers!" ”

"Papapapa" was another round of warm applause.

After signaling everyone to be quiet, Ma Zheng's expression suddenly became serious, and then he said: "The standards and methods of the reward have been approved by the chairman and others, which is the trust of the chief in our Suicha Military Region and a spur to us. Therefore, I still have to say something to you in advance, the weapons and equipment of our Suicha Military Region are the best of all the troops in the country, and the treatment is no worse than that of the Central Army of the Nationalist Government or even the descendants of Lao Chiang, and everyone should know this, so I hope that there will be no such thing as drinking the blood of soldiers in our Suicha Military Region, and the military law is ruthless, so please grasp it yourself. ”

"Commander, rest assured, we are not Kuomintang troops. Our military salaries are not much, and they are all paid directly to each soldier, without going through the hands of the officers at all, and there are also people from the military justice department who are staring, and the one who dares to embezzle the soldiers' money is not fatal. Besides, the troops are in charge of eating and drinking, and that still needs to rob the brothers of their hard-earned money. Huang Sicheng got up and said.

"Hehehe. That's good, you all eat with my Ma Zheng, so naturally you have to treat everyone equally. When you become a commander, you must look like a commander, and you must not be like the Kuomintang, understand? ”

"Understood!" Everyone said in unison.

"It's good to understand, that's all for now! Now let's talk about the achievements and losses of this battle, after the war, the Japanese army left more than 17,000 corpses in the Shanxi battlefield, and was annihilated by our army more than 6,000 people in the Shimen area, and more than 4,000 people in the Jingcheng area, and the Japanese army lost more than 24,000 people in this battle, including 1 Japanese lieutenant general (108th Division commander Xia Yuan Xiongya). In addition, our army captured 53,459 Type 38 rifles, 1,365 crooked machine guns, 322 Type 92 heavy machine guns, 2,345 grenadiers, 258 mortars, 79 mountain artillery, 121 field artillery, 32 combat vehicles, and a number of other weapons and equipment. ”

Then Ma Zheng continued: "In addition, there are more than 20,000 tons of grain, more than 30 carts of cloth, 30,000 sets of winter cotton clothes, 20,000 sets of Japanese military uniforms, and countless gold and silver. ”

"However, there are still many deficiencies in this battle, first of all, there are too many recruits in our army, and the training situation is not very good. Moreover, the troops moved slowly, and the other units behaved very chaotically when cooperating with the assault brigade, and there was no qualitative improvement in combat effectiveness. ”

"Secondly, the casualties of the troops in this battle were somewhat large, the defenders of Zhangjiakou alone suffered more than 6,000 casualties, and the total casualties exceeded more than 18,000, although the vast majority were wounded soldiers, and the actual battle dead were less than 5,000. And most of the casualties were recruits, but this also shows that our training of recruits needs to be strengthened. ”

"Finally, I would like to emphasize one point in particular, that is, our strategic deployment seems to be expected by the Japanese army, and it is definitely not a coincidence that the Fourth Army was ambushed by the Japanese army at Liushuyan, and it is impossible to be so accurate if the Japanese did not get the information in advance, so our intelligence department should pay more attention to it." Ma Zheng said.

"Commander, we've found this problem too! Through the interrogation of the prisoners, we learned that the Japanese army had already figured out our marching route and troop strength before we arrived at Yuanping, otherwise the 120th Division would not have been able to fight so hard at Ningwu Pass. Huang Sicheng said with a frown.

Ma Zheng said: "I already know what you said, but have you ever thought about it, our more than 300,000 troops besieged the first army of the Japanese army, why would Umezu Mijiro still deal with us so calmly?" ”

"Then you don't have to think about it, it's always the old devil's head is hot, he doesn't know how thick the sky is, and he thinks that with his shrimp soldiers and crabs, he can compete with us." Wu Xiuda said with a big grin.

"It's true that the brain is hot, but it's not unknowing."

Saying that, Ma Zheng got up and walked to the map on the wall, and then continued: "You look at the Japanese army's deployment this time, on the line of Ningwuguan and Yuanping, the Japanese army only put the 20th Division and the 109th complete infantry division, and there are also some miscellaneous troops, with a total strength of more than 30,000 people. In the vicinity of Taiyuan, only a few thousand people were put in, which can be described as extremely bold, and only half a division was placed in the direction of Qingxu and Yangquan, and Umezu Mijiro put the main force in the direction of Gujiao, to be precise, he put the main force on the mountain road between Luliang and Gujiao, which was almost all the mobile forces that he could mobilize. ”

"I had a phone call with Chief Yan of the Second War Zone, and he said that the Japanese army originally planned to use the terrain between Luliang and Gujiao to ambush Sun Weiru's department, and then defeat the Chinese troops on the southern front, and finally the main force went north to meet our army."

Huang Sicheng asked suspiciously: "The little devil is so sure that he can defeat the troops in the second war zone, you must know that Yan Laoxi has concentrated 150,000 troops this time, and there are at least 100,000 reserves behind him, Umezu Mijiro believes that he can wipe out such a huge Chinese army with only 20,000 or 30,000 troops?" ”

There are many people who have the same idea as Huang Sicheng, the Japanese army actually wants to defeat the 150,000 squadron in front of them with more than 30,000 people, they really think that the squadron is muddy? Even if the Chinese are carrying burning sticks on their shoulders, there are more than 100,000 people, and there are more than 100,000 reserve troops behind them.

Ma Zheng didn't let the officers in the conference room guess for a long time, he continued to say loudly: "It's not that the Japanese are crazy, but that this battle plan of theirs does have a high success rate. ”

"Ahh A high success rate? Everyone was shocked when they heard this!

"You see, according to the battle plan formulated in advance in the Second World War Zone, the three armies commanded by Sun Weiru were originally going to start from Luliang, and then attack Gujiao through this mountainous area, their marching route was the 15th Army in front, the 47th Army in the center, the headquarters of the group army and the **** palace, and the distance between the three armies was 30 miles. The Japanese army's 25th Brigade, Tank Wing, and Artillery Wing, totaling more than 13,000 people, set up an ambush in the area of Liushuyan. ”

"If they attack the 15th Army, then with the Japanese army's combat strength and terrain advantage, the Japanese army can easily wipe out Liu Enmao's troops. And the 15th Army was ambushed, the 47th Army will definitely be reinforced, the distance of 30 miles, the fastest will take 2 hours, and when they arrive, I am afraid they can only see corpses all over the ground. ”

Ma Zheng continued: "At this time, if the Japanese army attacks the 47th Army, I am afraid that although the 47th Army will not be completely annihilated, there will be no problem in being defeated. Then the Japanese army took the initiative to attack the remnants of Sun Weiru's department, the strength of the two sides was equal, and one side was a rout, and the other side had just achieved a major victory, and the morale was definitely not the same day, plus the Japanese army's firepower far exceeded that of Sun Weiru's department, and the Japanese army had a very high chance of winning this battle.
