Chapter 448 Plotting Henan

Roar!

Roar, roar, roar

In the area of Sanhe Town, there are national * troops, as well as the corpses of Japanese soldiers.

More are the Northwest Army that stepped on the corpses of Japanese soldiers and howled angrily, and the Northeast Army also had tens of thousands of soldiers of Tong Zeguang's 113th Brigade.

Annihilation of the four brigades of the Japanese army! Belonging to the more than 10,000 soldiers with the wounded, as well as thousands of brave soldiers who have sacrificed their lives for the country, at this time, the blood-stained body of Nagai Tokugawa and several other Nakasa and Shaosa were lined up, and under the camera of a war correspondent, this historic moment was recorded forever. Although the Northwest Army had also killed and wounded a larger number of Japanese troops in Langfang, this time it was an encirclement and annihilation that did not remain, and it was completely different from Langfang's hard support.

Tong Zeguang and Li Jiusi, the soldiers who had survived a hundred battles, couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, when the 29th Army surrounded and annihilated an infantry wing of the Japanese army in the area of the Wuding River, it cost more than twice the price of the enemy, and fought around the Japanese army for several days, and finally lost the Mutian Wing with the help of the Northwest Army. At this time, the four infantry brigades of the Japanese army were encircled and annihilated, and the Northwest Army successively mobilized more than 10,000 people, and when it really fought, it only took 37 hours to encircle this army. Although his own casualties were as high as four or five thousand, but the real casualties were only in the early two thousands, this battle can be regarded as a real momentum of the Northwest Army, this is not a tragic victory, but a big victory! When the army retreated and the Japanese front army rolled south, it was still possible to see the stitches and pull out the teeth of the tiger, and defeat nearly one-third of the strength of the 6th Division with an extremely tough attitude, even if it seems to be an extremely incredible thing now.

"I'm not afraid of enemies like tigers, I'm afraid of teammates like pigs. If you don't have the ability, forget it. I also prefer to be reckless. The hand of the five tiger generals is a pig, and it will not be able to fight like this. ”

Liu Zhendong and Li Chunrun joined forces to fight a beautiful battle on the periphery of Baoding, but Liu Zhi's 47th Division, the new 44th Brigade, the 30th Division, and the 31st Division of the 2nd Group Army were successively defeated by the Japanese 10th Division and lost the ability to continue to resist the Japanese army. Except for a few decent battles between Guan Linzheng and the Japanese army, the 2nd Army was almost immediately defeated, which was not far behind the defeat of the Northeast Army at Rehe. With Wen'an, several counties of Dacheng were lost one after another. To the east of Baoding, the gateway to the northeast has been opened to the 10th Division under the 2nd Army, and Li Chunrun, who originally planned to give Gu Shoufu a good look, had to collect his troops and return, and withdrew from the lonely town of Xiongzhou.

The commander of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army, Gu Shoufu, led a large group of men and horses to attack several times before, and more than 3,000 people were killed one after another, but he could not shake his heart, but was beaten by Li Chunrun with a beautiful counterattack, if it were not for Liu Zhi's fiasco. In the end, even if Gu Shoufu can get out with reinforcements, he will have to pay some price again. And compared to the previous heavy losses. The effortless occupation of Xiongzhou Town could not be regarded as an irony for the Japanese army.

"This battle can annihilate more than 8,000 Japanese troops, which is already a rare victory, and it greatly boosts the morale of our Northwest Army. Although there were partial setbacks, Liu Zhi's fiasco also better reflected the role of the mainstay of our Northwest Army. Compared with Jiang Li's anger, Shao Lizi and Tibetan Yi seemed quite calm at this time.

"Yes, it turns out that the goal of destroying 20,000 enemies in the Battle of Shibao has been nearly half completed, and the current exchange ratio is still very cost-effective. At the current rate of attrition of the Japanese army, at least this winter, it will be difficult to reach the north bank of the Yellow River. ”

Tibetan Shiyi experienced the Mukden War that year, and his psychological quality was much stronger than that of ordinary literati, although he was a literati, but he had been in contact with Jiang Li and other high-level military leaders for a long time, and this battle would also be counted. Although the Japanese North China Front Army had nearly 400,000 people, after a few battles, more than 20,000 were killed in battle alone, and the wounded were even worse. Later, Baoding, Shijiazhuang battled, and then annihilated 10,000 or 20,000 Japanese troops. On the North China front, the Japanese army would lose its offensive strength. After all, the losses exceeded a quarter, and at the same time, several battlefields had to be taken into account, and a part of the army had to be sent to the rear, and then only about 200,000 Japanese troops could be used for the offensive in North China. For the people in the northwest, who have been accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves, the 200,000 Japanese troops are still terrifying, but they are not irresistible. Even if the Japanese army can replenish quickly, it is almost impossible for the Japanese army to maintain such a high level of combat when winter comes.

"The Japanese army cannot be determined by a war, as long as they can delay the pace of their attack, they will be followed by water grinding tofu, piecemeal, and sooner or later they will be exhausted." Mr. Zhou smiled and said, as one of the several high-level leaders of the red forces, Mr. Zhou's military talent is not outstanding, but diplomacy and internal affairs are a good hand, at this time, the political situation in the northwest is complicated, relying on Tibetan Yi alone, Shao Lizi is unbearable, Mr. Zhou and several red leaders and Yang Hucheng also quickly entered the decision-making level in the northwest.

"That's the truth, but every time I see these things, I can't help but get angry." Jiang Liqi came and went quickly. quickly turned to smile and said, "But if it weren't for that, I wouldn't be able to take over Henan openly." ”

"The commander is going to take over Henan now, and Nanjing may not agree to this." Shao Lizi was shocked.

"You don't need them to agree, just send troops to Luoyang and Zhengzhou to take over, now Nanjing is too busy to take care of itself, the situation in Songhu is declining, how can there be kung fu to fight with me for Henan, Liu Zhi is incompetent, do you want to continue to hand over Henan to him later? Before, for the sake of face, it was not good for me to directly send troops into Zhengzhou and Luoyang. The fortifications of Zhengzhou have been delayed for a long time, Liu Zhi did not spend much effort in Zhengzhou, while there is still some time, the northwest will take over Zhengzhou, and it will take a few months, more than half a year, to transform Zhengzhou, and the Japanese army wants to take Zhengzhou City, at least they have to pay the price of conquering Fengtian City that year. Jiang Li said coldly, Zhengzhou, as the railway point of Pinghan Road, leans on the Yellow River in the north and the Central Plains in the south. The geographical location is extremely important, and once it is controlled by the Japanese army, it will gain the initiative in the entire Central Plains battlefield. Now, if we don't seize the opportunity to manage the Zhengzhou battlefield well, we will undoubtedly fight extremely hard in the face of the main force of the Japanese front army moving south. Jiang Li has long had the intention to take Zhengzhou, but he has always lacked enough excuses.

"In case Nanjing takes the opportunity to make trouble, how to deal with it, it is good for the Northwest Army to directly take over Henan, but if it is shaken to the situation of unanimous resistance against Japan, it will not be good." Mr. Zhou frowned. (To be continued.) )
