Since receiving the report that Jing Yukun led three mobile brigades to return to the east, Tuesday Dog immediately realized the problem of the economic burden of southern Jiangsu: the purpose of sending guerrilla brigades and mobile brigades was to reduce the population pressure of the defense area in southern Jiangsu and the load of the troops on southern Jiangsu.

The staff meeting, this is a treasure for the dog to solve the problem on Tuesday.

On Tuesday, Gou invited Zhao Dahu, Shi Jilun, Zeng Qi, He Laifu, Xiang Qingyun, Ouyang Cheng and others to discuss solving the problem of economic burden.

Problems are in front of you, and you must always find ways to solve them: 1. Import grain from the guerrilla areas; 2. Exchanging grain from the nationalized and Japanese-occupied areas through commerce and trade; 3. Increase industrial production in exchange for more materials. Fourth, export troops, reduce the burden on southern Jiangsu and increase seizures at the same time; V. Relocation of the population and reduction of population density in the base areas......

In the end, Zeng Qi gave everyone a breakthrough opportunity: the original nine-character mantra was based on the low-key strategy of the Wu Mu army that was not strong enough at that time, and now the Wu Mu army is strong and strong, and can let go of the big fight, what "build a high wall, accumulate grain, and slow down the king" policy should be adjusted, the core is to integrate superior troops, launch large-scale offensive operations, capture cities, and expand the theater of operations.

As soon as everyone's eyes lit up, the planning problems behind were much easier.

First of all, integrate the troops, establish a strong field army, conquer the city, and eliminate the living forces of the devils, the second is to follow up the Wumu caravan to expand financial resources, and then expand the factories to improve the economic strength of the newly occupied areas, and at the same time popularize education and improve the quality of the people in the occupied areas.

The General Headquarters of the Wumu Army returned to the pattern of the first division of troops, but the focus was adjusted:

There are also heavy machine gun companies, infantry artillery companies, transport companies, and heavy shotguns, meteor mines, and javelin mines that do not occupy the establishment, and the special service battalion is directly under the jurisdiction of the infantry column headquarters, and each column is equipped with a large number of trucks, carts, and pack horses, and each column has a capacity of 16,000 people.

Guerrilla Army Command, Commander He Laifu, Deputy Commander and Chief of Staff Liu Chenghai

It has six guerrilla columns under its jurisdiction, which are expanded according to the original Su-Anhui Brigade, Jiang-Anhui Brigade, Beishang Brigade, Eastward Expansion Brigade, Jiangsu-Shanghai Brigade, and Suzhou-Shanghai Brigade, with a personnel quota of more than 8,000 personnel and an operational area of more than 3,000 square kilometers, supplemented with light machine guns, heavy machine guns, and mortars according to the number of personnel.

Liu Zhenjiang, commander of the Su-Anhui guerrilla column; Li Jiakui, commander of the Suzhou-Shanghai guerrilla column; Zhao Da'er, commander of the Jiangwan guerrilla column; Wei Wenyang, commander of the Wuhang guerrilla column; Wang Junshan, commander of the eastward guerrilla column; The commander of the northern guerrilla column was Feng Jiuzhong

After the reorganization plan was completed, Jing Yukun and others also arrived in Xishan, so all units began to implement the reorganization plan in full swing.

The joint logistics column was stationed in Liyang, the special forces column was stationed in Yixing, the first infantry column was stationed in Danyang, the second infantry column was stationed in Lishui, and the third infantry column was stationed in Jintan.

Tuesday Dog was not very satisfied with the results of the Shanggao Campaign, although the capture was not too small, but the officers and men of the Wumu Army fought bloodily and suffered heavy casualties, but the Military Commission was so favoritive that Tuesday Dog was angry, so Tuesday Dog asked the Military Commission for credit for the performance of the Shanggao Battle, Jing Yukun, Wan Zixiong, Liu Qinghe and others.

The Military Commission quickly replied: In view of the fact that the First Garrison Command of the Military Administration of Southern Jiangsu in the Third Theater actively cooperated with friendly forces in the Shanggao Campaign and achieved remarkable results, the commanders of the department, Jing Yukun, Liu Qinghe, and Wan Zixiong, were promoted to lieutenant generals.

The reply of the Military Commission made Tuesday Dog secretly grit his teeth, these officials are really bad, and giving an empty rank to commend not only does not cost a penny, but also disrupts the internal management hierarchy order of the Wu Mu Army, and may also cause internal strife in the Wu Mu Army.

So, on Tuesday, the dog decided to hold an enlarged staff meeting.

As soon as the letter of appointment of the Dog Military Committee was read out on Tuesday, it really caused a lot of discussion: Damn, this brother and son will be on an equal footing with Tuesday Dog, Zhao Dahu, and Zeng Qi after the reorganization, and the units will become major generals and lieutenant generals.

Wan Zixiong and Liu Qinghe didn't know the depths, and they were still proud, but Jing Yukun realized that the Military Commission was harboring evil intentions, so he stood up and said that he was only worthy of the rank of major general in the Wumu Army.

After discussion, Wan Zixiong and Liu Qinghe understood the reason and said that they were still worthy of the rank of major general. Zu Jing was secretly chilled by the Military Commission's handling of things. At this time, Zu Jing had been appointed by Dai Li as the head of the major general of the military command station in southern Jiangsu.

The controversy over the awarding of titles did not have a great impact on Wu Mujun, but instead separated from the Military Commission.

The days still have to live, and the battle still has to be fought. What the field army will do after reorganization will depend on its combat achievements. Zhao Dahu decided to try his hand first.

It's time to harvest the early rice again. Wu Mujun and the devil have a bloody battle every year at this time period. Zhao Dahu decided that this time he would take the initiative to go to the door, no longer to defend the grain, but to go to the Japanese-occupied areas to plunder the grain.

Wuxing was the choke point for Wu Mu's army to enter Shanghai in the east and Hangzhou in the south, so the devils deployed a devil infantry wing and another field artillery brigade here. The three infantry brigades of the infantry wing are deployed on the south bank of Taihu Lake, one is deployed in Wuxing City, and one is deployed in the mountains south of the city, and the artillery brigade of the wing is equipped with 12 infantry guns, 6 37mm rapid-fire guns, and each squadron is also equipped with a 20mm automatic gun, with a total of 18 infantry guns, 12 20mm automatic guns, and 6 37mm rapid-fire guns, which is also super firepower at the wing level. What's more, there is also a field artillery brigade with 12 105mm field guns deployed on the south bank of Taihu Lake, which can attack Changxing and Xishan when entering, and can block the sailors of the Wumu Army on Taihu Lake when retreating.

After a typhoon, Zhao Dahu commanded his troops to attack Wuxing.

More than 500 people from a battalion of the special operations brigade crossed the mountains and mountains to launch a sneak attack on the devils in the mountains south of Wuxing. After they arrived at the designated position, each person carried 2 grenades and javelin thunderbolts and 1 javelin thunderbolt to the devil's position, and then launched an attack with automatic weapons such as light machine guns and strange lights, and quickly occupied most of the positions in the south of Wuxing City. The first battalion of the 1st Infantry Brigade of Jing Yukun's department responded at the same time and drove the devils in the south of the city into Wuxing City.

At the same time, the other two battalions of the 1st Infantry Brigade of Jing Yukun's division also launched an attack on the inner and northern parts of Wuxing City.

The 2nd Infantry Battalion first bombarded the Devil's infantry position with the heavy mortars of the mobile battalion, accurately destroyed the Devil's firepower point with 20mm automatic guns and anti-aircraft machine guns, and then the infantry broke through the fortifications on the periphery of the Devil's Battalion and attacked under Wuxing City; Heavy mortars were then used to bombard the fortifications on the walls, and the infantry blasted open the gates with meteor thunderbolts. Xiang Qingyun's Changxing garrison battalion under the cover of Niu Daojia armored brigade, 9 tanks, 4 armored vehicles covered 9 infantry platoons quickly broke into Wuxing City, according to the predetermined line section by section to clean up the devil defenders, without any suspense to take Wuxing City, the devil retreated to the direction of Jiaxing.

The heavy artillery brigade of the special forces column in the north of Wuxing City bombarded the devil artillery along the Taihu Lake, covering the attack of the third battalion of the 1st Infantry Brigade of Jingyukun Division, and the sailor brigade also took advantage of the situation to outflank the Taihu Lake, and the devils had to retreat in the direction of Jiaxing.

Jing Yukun's 3rd Infantry Column quickly bypassed Wuxingcheng and advanced towards Jiaxing.

Jiaxing is located between Shanghai and Hangzhou, under the heavy defense of the devils, it was unthinkable that Wu Mu's army would attack Jiaxing, and it was occupied by Jing Yukun's second infantry brigade almost without resistance. Jing Yukun also did not hesitate to order the 1st Infantry Brigade and the 3rd Infantry Brigade to advance directly to Jinshanwei by the sea, separating Shanghai and Hangzhou.

At this time, Nishio Shouzo had returned to Japan, Shunroku Hata had returned as commander-in-chief of the Chinese Dispatch Army, and the commander of the 13th Army was now Shigeru Sawada.

Sawada Shigeru was relatively calm, seeing that Jing Yukun's troops had cut off the jurisdiction of the 13th Army, and at this time they could attack both Shanghai and Hangzhou, but they didn't know which direction they would develop in the next step, so they ordered the surrounding troops of Jing Yukun's troops to strengthen their vigilance and wait and see what happened.

Zhao Dahu also wanted to see how Sawada Shigeru responded, and the two sides were at a stalemate with each other for a day, and Li Jinglong took the opportunity to transport 40 motorized speedboats to the sea, and happened to encounter the devil warship that came from the sea to reinforce him.

One destroyer and three frigates carrying a wing of the devil landed in Jinshanwei, and more than a dozen gunboats carrying a large group of the devil's infantry had just landed and were building a beachhead.

The 3rd Infantry Brigade of Jing Yukun's Division, which arrived first, immediately formed a formation and entered the battle with the light infantry that arrived first. The first battalion and one company engaged the enemy, first flying dozens of meteors and thunderbolts towards the devil's beachhead, and then strafing the devil with light machine guns and strange light submachine guns on the spot.

The devils on the beachhead immediately used light and heavy machine guns to cover the infantry to launch a charge, fighting for a foothold, and the naval guns at sea also began to cover with fire.

The other two companies of the first battalion also quickly rushed up, and the commander of the first battalion ordered the troops to launch a counter-charge to drive the devils into the sea. For a while, the meteor flying thunder was launched first, followed by the javelin flying thunder, followed by the soldiers of the Wumu Army with light machine guns and Qiguang submachine guns, and the two sides soon fell into a melee.

When the 3rd Infantry Brigade arrived, the second landing force of the Devils also arrived, and they were also pressed on the beach, but the reinforcements of the Devils would continue to follow.

Li Jinglong followed behind the Third Infantry Brigade, and after learning about the battle situation ahead, he immediately arranged for a motorized speedboat to go down to the nearest river, where the river must have flowed to the sea.

As soon as the motorized speedboat left the estuary, they fought separately, braving the dense fire of the rapid-fire guns on the devil's gunboat, and rushed straight to the devil's troop carrier. The whale thunder is not as long as the devil's rapid-fire gun, but the speed of the motorized speedboat is fast, it is not easy to aim, and it quickly rushes to the gunboat, and the meteor thunder begins to rage, bombarding the devil's gunboat, and the later motorized speedboat pounces on the devil's warship with the momentum of moths to the fire.

When the devil's warship saw that a few motorboats, which were not much bigger than sharks, dared to attack a warship of thousands of tons, they couldn't help but laugh at it, and at this time, the ship's guns were too close to be used, so they hurriedly used the grenadiers and light and heavy machine guns of the infantry on board to block the attack.

The devils on the warship soon stopped laughing, and the two frigates were firmly drilled through a dozen holes.

Li Jinglong's motorized speedboat quickly ran out of ammunition and desperately fled back, but as a result, nine motorized speedboats were destroyed, and most of the devil's troop carriers were also destroyed.

At night, Li Jinglong, regardless of the physical and mental exhaustion of the soldiers, personally led the team to launch an attack on the devil's lighthouse, and at the same time used the train signal light to send a guiding signal to the devil's fleet, leading the devil's fleet to the reef area, and a total of 7 warships with the newly arrived reinforcements ran aground and ran aground, and the devil's reinforcements could not reach Jinshanwei in a short time.

Zhao Dahu was unwilling to stalemate any longer, and ordered Wan Zixiong to set out from Danyang and launch an attack on Changzhou. Wan Zixiong was a loser, and the three infantry brigades were divided into three routes and marched towards Changzhou in unison with the heavy firepower of the fire brigade.

The current Wumu Field Army, battalion-level troops are equipped with 9 heavy machine guns and 9 infantry guns, so the vanguard battalions of the three brigades add up to 27 infantry guns and 27 heavy machine guns.

Wan Zixiong won Longwang Shu and continued to attack Wuxi, but the Wuxi devils fled when they heard the wind, leaving an empty city. Wan Zixiong was not happy, knowing that the more he went to the back, the more difficult it would be.

Sure enough, in Suzhou, the devils began to resist without giving an inch. Li Jiakui's troops attacked Kunshan and Taicang from Yangcheng Lake, and they were also met with a strong counterattack.

Wu Mujun's actions proved the intention of attacking Shanghai from both sides of Taihu Lake, so Sawada Shigeru ordered the 15th Division to block the attack of Wu Mu's army on the front line of Taicang, Kunshan, and Wuzhong in Suzhou, and at the same time attacked Wu Mu's army on the front line of Jiaxing with the 116th Division in the direction of Zhejiang, opening up the connection between Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

However, the strength of the Wu Mu army at this time was not the same as that of the victory in southern Jiangsu that year.
