Chapter 327: Polar Bear's Mind

Compared to Okamura Ninji, who pinned all his hopes on himself, located less than 30 kilometers from Chaoyang, the troops under the command of Okamura Ninji began to excavate field fortifications in echelons, destroying roads and bridges, many people did not understand Okamura Ninji's intentions, and Okamura Ninji did not give any explanation. Kenkichi Ueda completely blocked the news of the failure of Hideki Tojo's attack, so both Ryushu and Ryosuke Isoya still had a glimmer of hope that Chief of Staff Tojo would be able to turn the tide of the battle at a critical moment.

In contrast, Yamashita Fengwen seemed much more sensible, and also carried out Ueda Kenkichi's orders, but Yamashita Fengwen's Third Front Army was obviously not too deep into the attack on Zhangjiakou, Yamashita Fengwen's troops were mostly used on the two wings and his own rear, and the attack on the Zhangjiakou fortress was very absent-minded, and an attacking army actually built fortifications behind him? Garrisoned with heavy troops? This is obviously a fear that someone will cut off its back road and attack its back door!

Zhang Xuewu faced the entire strategic deployment of the 10th Theater of Operations, in fact, he was demolishing the east wall to make up for the west wall, for the sake of the Yumen Oilfield, Zhang Xuewu expanded his defense circle at least two times, so that the already overstretched forces were even more insufficient.

Except for the staff officers of all countries in the world during World War II, who had relatively great power, the staff officers of the rest of the countries basically played the role of miscellaneous and scolded, because during the war, they were often the commanders of the military commanders, and the staff officers were also divided into operations, garrison, defense, tactics, strategy, and logistics integration, and so on, which was actually a panacea.

Zhang Xuewu himself has a few catties and a few taels, Zhang Xuewu himself knows best, this time the army is going all out to attack the tenth war zone, it can be said that it is beyond Zhang Xuewu's expectations, because he thinks that his tenth war zone is far stronger than the fifth war zone Li Zongren, so he said that he will not put eggs and gnaw stones, so he formulated a more comfortable battle plan, on the one hand, continue to accumulate strength, and wait for himself to completely fall into the battle in Xuzhou. Block Shanhaiguan and occupy Jinzhou! Swept through the Pingjin area.

However, under the reverse thinking, Zhang Xuewu failed to get the relevant information about the mobilization of the Yue army in time, and he had to admit that the strategic deception of Yue Ben before the campaign was launched was quite in place, so that he always believed that his strategic goal was Xuzhou.

The snowstorm and the heavy cooling made Zhang Xuewu lower his vigilance, and the most unexpected thing for him was that the national political axe was also holding the posture of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight? Li Zongren's friendship with him is not deep or not, but the assistance he gave him is genuine, but Li Zongren also has to listen to Chiang Kai-shek's orders and use troops on his own according to his proposals? Li Zongren did not have such a big breaking force, and it may be possible to be tactically able to accept foreign military orders, but strategically Li Zongren could only repeatedly ask Chiang Kai-shek for war.

Zhang Xuewu stood in front of the huge sand table, looking at the dogs of the enemy and our troops on the sand table, and also felt a very headache, Zhang Xuewu is not an absolute firepower winning faction, that is because he has no conditions to be a firepower winning faction, the troops of the 10th theater are many times stronger than the Yue army in terms of campaign or strategic firepower projection output, which is also the main reason why the Yue army's attacks are frequently frustrated.

What made Zhang Xuewu feel most comfortable was actually the battle of Baotou, which swept away the two divisions sent to the door by Yu himself, so that the 23rd Mechanized Division had a large-scale surrender, and his combat effectiveness was really weakened to such a point? Zhang Xuewu did not think so, this can only be regarded as a special case, the total annihilation of the Kwantung Army's tank division can be said to have shocked the officers and men of the 23rd Division, the overwhelming hail rockets, even the enemy tanks that can't be helpless by human bombs, are completely a kind of hysterical despair.

Coupled with the chaotic command of Tojo, a layman, Hideki Tojo, the chief of staff of the Kwantung Army, who was the actual supreme commander at the critical moment, actually abandoned the troops? The choice of the commander of the 23rd Division, Daichi Yamashita, all constituted the factors and key to the surrender of the army, so at least at this stage, it is almost impossible to think that such a large-scale surrender will occur in person.

In the morning sun, the two armies have fought a bad battle, and the army has taken advantage of the favorable terrain of the hills to hold on, and even the Americans who are armed to the teeth in history have no choice but to send infantry to clean up under the cover of absolute firepower, and the role that the armored forces can play here is minimized, and Zhang Xuewu does not have the absolute firepower output of the American army, and there are not so many shells to repair the earth.

And Zhang Xuewu also has his own plans, even if he has the ability to destroy the withering and decaying in this battle, he must hide and fight, at least he can't expose all his strength, just like the third armored division in Baotou after facing the Kwantung Army chariot division and the 23rd mechanized division of the Kwantung Army, which are still hiding in Baotou, because Zhang Xuewu knows that some people are more worried about the battle situation on his side, in the exchanges between countries, there are no eternal friends, only eternal use, If we don't take advantage of the current aggressive situation of the army to ask for more from Soviet Russia, if the Soviet Union really concludes a secret treaty in the future, I am afraid that the good words of Soviet aid will come to an end.

However, in the counterattack against the first front army of the Yue army attacking Chaoyang, the Zhou Libing troops and the second front army Isoya Ryosuke, both the iron cavalry medium main battle tank and the jackal light tank were limited by the terrain and terrain, and the infantry and tanks were separated by the firepower of the Yue army, and the means of blowing up the tracks and burning the engine were used, and the iron cavalry medium main battle tank also suffered some losses.

However, the troops of the two front armies of the Yue Army are constantly oppressed by the 10th Theater Division, the 1st and 2nd Armored Divisions every day, and the pressure of the Yue Army can be imagined, and the Tiger Ben Division and the 1st Honor Division, which were originally waiting for the opportunity, also began to assemble at a station less than 50 kilometers away from Chaoyang at this moment. It was also frequently attacked by the air force units of the 10th Theater of Operations, and the army suffered considerable losses under the fierce air raids.

According to the latest cipher code of the Japanese army deciphered by the secret telegram department, it was confirmed that the commander of this unit was Okamura Ningji, the historical demon of invading China.

For Okamura Ninji to be able to climb so fast relative to history? Zhang Xuewu was also very surprised; Okamura Ningji was one of the few people in the army who had always kept a cool head; in terms of China policy, Okamura Ningji opposed the establishment of a large-scale formal puppet regime; he believed that this would stimulate the political axe of Yucheng and force it to embark on the road of desperate resistance to the war; he opposed himself serving as officials at all levels in the occupied areas, and advocated using China to control China and give dignity to the Chinese. When Okamura Ningji learned that there had been a case of forcible annihilation in the army, the military judge defended the criminal soldier on the grounds of insufficient evidence and the other party's failure to denounce it, he was furious and severely punished the criminal on the grounds that no vulnerable victim dared to denounce it during the war.

It can be said that the destruction brought to China by demons like Okamura Ninji is far greater than that of a butcher like Gu Shoufu, who can kill thousands of people, but it will eventually make the Chinese people more united and fight to the end, but the road given by Okamura Ninji is very attractive to the Chinese, because the Chinese nation is fundamentally an agrarian nation, and it does not have too much aggressive blood and barbaric will.

To put it simply, if you give the people a way to live and give him enough food, he will not rise up, the Chinese people are the kindest and best managed in the world, only if you don't poison their water and food, don't take away their last clothes, push them to the house, and force their women, they will work hard! There is no doubt that Okamura Ninji has seen through the numbness of most Chinese people, and if Okamura Ninji's proposition can really be thoroughly implemented and implemented in history, I am afraid that China's great cause of the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression will suffer great losses.

In this operation against the Kwantung Army, Zhang Xuewu's previous reserves of materials can be said to have consumed a huge amount, but fortunately, with the support of the Soviets, if the 10th theater is completely defeated and eliminated by Yue himself, the Soviet army will lose the last opponent in the Far East who can contain the Kwantung Army.

At the time of the First World War, it was said that the incident of his sweep across the Far East was vivid for the most vengeful polar bear, so Zhang Xuewu's troops in the 10th Theater must not be defeated, Stalin personally gave instructions, and the military dispatch team left in Moscow in the 10th Theater immediately transmitted the good news back to Chengde, and the Soviet Union no longer had a planned control over the aid of oil and strategic supplies to the 10th Theater.

The Soviet Union made a large number of alloy armor plates, diesel engines, aero engines, and the most urgently needed chemical agents and ammunition in the 10th Theater of Operations for Zhang Xuewu, almost no longer what the Soviet Union provided, but what Zhang Xuewu wanted, the Soviets gave him! But Zhang Xuewu had to admit that the explosive power of the explosives made by the Soviets was indeed inferior to that of the Germans.

It is said that the Kwantung Army is already at the end of its strong crossbow, but he is unwilling to admit it, and Zhang Xuewu is not willing to immediately launch a general attack on the whole army to defeat the army, which is tantamount to cutting off his own financial route.
