However, Ma Zheng should pay attention to the overall situation, so he only put forward a little suggestion on the battle plan of the eastern Hebei front, and as for how to implement it, it depends on how Liu Fengchi, Tie Xinlan and others arrange it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In fact, a major battle with the Japanese army in eastern Hebei had been put on the agenda before the outbreak of this battle, and due to the arrival of the first division of the Kwantung Army, the Sino-Japanese forces in eastern Hebei changed again.

Originally, after Ma Zheng's headquarters annihilated the main forces of the Japanese army's 1st Division and 4th Division, Ma Zheng's headquarters and the Fourth Column of the Eighth Route Army, which arrived in eastern Hebei as early as 38 years, became the most powerful force in eastern Hebei. It was also taking advantage of the favorable opportunity of that period of time that the reorganized Third Division penetrated its forces into Qianxi, Lulong, and Changli counties.

However, the First Division of the Japanese Army and other units of the Kwantung Army continued to move south, and the activity space of the Eighth Route Army rapidly became smaller, especially under the continuous attacks of the Japanese mechanized troops, the Eighth Route Army in eastern Hebei continued to retreat, which made Liu Fengchi and others very dissatisfied, so they had long wanted to teach the little devils in eastern Hebei a hard lesson.

At the beginning, Liu Fengchi's intention was to stumble between Lulong County and the First Division, taking advantage of the fact that the Japanese army did not know the strength of the reorganized Third Division as an opportunity to build Lulong into a huge and strong fortress, and then use this fortress to attract the First Division to attack, and then consume its elite troops, and then the main force carried out a major counterattack.

But it's a pity that this plan was just halfway through the implementation of the telegram that the main force of the Japanese army was about to enter Fan Jidong in a big way, and then Liu Fengchi and others had to interrupt this plan, after all, Lulong was too close to Qinhuangdao of the Japanese army, and once it was really surrounded by the main force of the Japanese army in Lulong, it was really possible to be eaten by the little devils, so after several discussions, Liu Fengchi decided to implement his plan in Qian'an, not far from Chengde.

According to the battle plan formulated by the former enemy headquarters in eastern Hebei, on the one hand, the large army brought the main force of the Japanese army to Qian'an, and at the same time mobilized the army and civilians to build Qian'an into a giant fortress, and then put on a posture of decisive battle with the main force of the Japanese army.

Now it seems that although the whole plan has been unexpected, it is still relatively successful at present, at this time there are no residents in the entire Qian'an City, and all the residents have been forcibly relocated outside the Qian'an City by the army. The whole city has become the battlefield of the Eighth Route Army, in Liu Fengchi's words, if this battle is won, Qian'an is a glorious battlefield for the reorganization of the Third Division, if he loses, it will become the cemetery of Liu Fengchi, and it will also become the cemetery for the burial of the Third Division.

According to the plan drawn up by the headquarters of the former enemy in eastern Hebei, while the troops were withdrawn from Lulong, Luanxian, and other localities to Qian'an, the principal leaders of the three reorganized divisions should appear in Qian'an City in a timely manner, and they would also frequently inspect the positions on the periphery of Qian'an. It was necessary to make the Japanese army think that the main force of the reorganized Third Division was here, and the Eighth Route Army wanted to fight a decisive battle with the Japanese army here.

Obviously, the plan of Liu Fengchi and others was successful. After the 110th Division joined forces with the main force of the 1st Division, the two armies quickly rushed to Qian'an in the direction of the retreat of the Eighth Route Army.

However, on the way to Qian'an, they were met with stubborn resistance from the Eighth Route Army, which took advantage of all kinds of favorable terrain to build fortifications, and even destroyed all the traffic to Qian'an in order to slow down their march.

What shocked Lieutenant General Mamoru Iinuma and Isamu Yokoyama, commander of the 110th Division, was that this time the will to resist was extremely tenacious, and almost every victory of the Imperial Japanese Army had to be won on the premise that all the Chinese defenders were killed, which was rare in previous battles.

Although judging from the fighting qualities shown by the Chinese people, the quality of these Chinese defenders was not high, and some of them could not even repair fortifications, but the style of fighting to the death and not retreating still caused a lot of pressure on the Japanese army.

More importantly, these dirt roads were fortified along favorable terrain, so as the attacking side, the Japanese suffered considerable losses. In just two days, although they advanced more than 30 kilometers in the direction of Qian'an, they also paid more than 1,700 casualties.

Especially in the West Brain Bao Heights, a series of pillboxes were built on the Tuba Road, and with the cooperation of the minefield, they caused great trouble. A full day and a night had passed since yesterday afternoon, but they still couldn't defeat the defenders of this small plateau, which made Mamoru Iinuma and Isamu Yokoyama extremely depressed.

On January 12, it had been two full days since the Eighth Route Army blocked the east of the West Brain Pack, and in these two days, the Japanese 110th Division and the First Division took turns to fight, but there was still no way to hold a small hill bag, and the whole 50,000 troops were blocked here and could not advance an inch.

In desperation, Lieutenant General Isamu Yokoyama had no choice but to order Chief of Staff Yamashita Seiichi to lead the 49th Wing of the 1st Infantry Brigade to bypass the first line of defense on the periphery of Sinaobao to see if he could find a way to enter the periphery of Qian'an City.

But unfortunately, the Eighth Route Army has turned this area into an iron barrel, how can it leave a flaw for the Japanese army. Yamashita Cheng Dazuo soon encountered the resistance of the Eighth Route Army in a place in Pig Brain Mountain, and the two sides fought another bloody battle in Pig Brain Mountain, and the tragedy was not much worse than that of Xi Brain Bao.

At this point, as the supreme commander of this battle, Lieutenant General Isamu Yokoyama realized that the Dohachi Road was likely to have a decisive battle with the Japanese Empire in Qian'an. According to the intensity of the firepower of the defenders' positions on the opposite side, Lieutenant General Isamu Yokoyama judged that there was at least one division of troops on the opposite side of the Dohachi Road, and coupled with the news from Yamashita Osa, Lieutenant General Yokoyama discovered that there was at least one reinforced infantry division on the Tuba Road on the outskirts of Qian'an.

This is just the periphery of Qian'an, if Qian'an City is what kind of situation at this time, where to sow discord and how many troops will be deployed.

Yokoyama immediately ordered Qinhuangdao's aviation unit to reconnoiter in the Qian'an area, and received information that there was at least one infantry division in Qian'an City. This time, Yokoyama was even more surprised, the strength of the two infantry divisions was already terrifying.

According to the intelligence detected by the "elites" of the special high school, the army of the China Suicha Military Region is indeed quite large, and it should be the largest of the several main forces of the Eighth Route Army, and its strength should be at least more than 100,000 people, or even 150,000. According to the establishment of the Chinese people, the two infantry divisions have at least 20,000 people, or even more, no wonder the Chinese people dare to fight them to the death on the periphery of Qian'an, it seems that there is indeed a decisive battle with the main force.

What Yokoyama didn't know was that when they attacked the periphery of Qian'an, a large number of troops were rushing to Qian'an from Chengde and other places, including the only cavalry unit under Ma Zheng's headquarters and the integrated 5th Division, which had extremely strong combat capability.

The reason why Liu Fengchi dared to risk his life, and even did not hesitate to be a bait himself, was that the Japanese army did not know the true strength of the Eighth Route Army.

In fact, the question of how many troops there are in the Suicha Military Region at present, not to mention that the Japanese are not clear, even Ma Zheng and Yun Jian are not clear. This is not that Ma Zheng deliberately kept his own people secret, but that the number of soldiers in various units of the Suicha Military Region is changing all the time. Unlike the various troops, which have extremely strict control over their establishment, they are afraid that the troops below will expand their strength without permission and eventually become a big deal.

There is no such rule in the Suicha Military Region, as long as you have the ability to support you, even if a regiment recruits 10,000 people, no one will say you. In particular, Ma Zheng often sent small units deep behind enemy lines to allow them to develop independently, and the establishment of these troops was often very excessive. Just like when Tie Xinlan was in Luanping County, Ma Zheng gave them only an infantry battalion, while Tie Xinlan's department had more than 10,000 people.

Therefore, no one knows how many troops there are in the Suicha Military Region, and this is a fact, and whether Ma Zheng admits it or not, the establishment of the military region reported by each unit does not correspond to the actual number of troops.

Ma Zheng is clear about this, Yun Jian is also clear, and Liu Fengchi, as the commander of the Third Division, is naturally also clear. Since even these high-ranking officers can't figure out the problem, it's even more impossible for the little devils to know. Therefore, Liu Fengchi felt that as long as the little devils thought that they had surrounded the main force of Jidong in Qian'an, then they would definitely besiege Qian'an at all costs in the style of the little devils, and the plan they made would be successful at that time.
