[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 198: The Collision of the Soul of the Nation (Ask for Subscription!) )
There was silence in the conference room, and gasps were heard everywhere. Even the two bosses didn't expect that there were so many troops in the Suicha base area, and Ma Zheng's family foundation was so strong.
After a long time, Mr. Peng said with admiration: "The future is terrifying, when we arrived in Jining in early February, he only had three or four regiments, and the total strength was less than 10,000. But it's only been less than half a year, and this kid has made so many troops, 22 regiments, which is equivalent to a group army on Lao Jiang's side, no wonder this kid dares to fight the little devil. ”
Mr. Zhu said: "This time, when Ma Zheng went south, he took more than 7,000 people with him, and there are about 38,000 people left in the base area, and the medical record of the Japanese army is not less than that of the Japanese army, but the kid also said that the Suicha base area is expanding too fast, so many troops are still just a shelf and lack weapons and equipment, so there are about 20,000 troops with real combat effectiveness!" ”
Mr. Peng said: "Although the left-behind troops in the Suicha base area are weaker than the Japanese army in front of them, if Ma Zheng, a military ghost, can command it remotely, I think it should not be a problem for them to repel the siege of the devils, as for Ma Zheng's idea, I think let him watch it himself." If you can, as long as the losses are not too serious, then teach the 16th Division a lesson! ”
Mr. Zhu said: "We can't just let the Suicha base support itself, let the 120th Division and the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region also help, they all owe Ma Zheng a favor, it's time to pay it back!" ”
"Well, I think we can let the 120th Division move to the north of Jin, and if necessary, we can hit Shuoxian and the periphery of Datong, so that the 26th Division stationed in Datong will not dare to act rashly. Or simply send the main force north to Jining. Assist the Suicha base area in carrying out counter-encirclement and suppression. In addition, the defense area of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region is very close to Tianzhen and Yangyuan, and they can also move, but they dare not say that it is no problem to drag one or two wings of the Japanese army! Mr. Peng said.
"I'll do it, that's it!"
After some discussion, most of the leaders of the headquarters felt that Mr. Peng's proposal was good. For a fierce general like Ma Zheng, a certain degree of combat autonomy should be given. Besides, all the leaders also know that Ma Zheng has always been a maverick in wars, and rarely asks the headquarters for instructions, since he can't control it, it's better to ignore it, anyway, those family businesses are earned by himself, and he won't be his own loser in the future.
The instructions from the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army were soon sent to the front line in Wuhan, and after receiving the instructions from his superiors, Ma Zheng immediately arranged for his troops to counterattack the Japanese army.
As analyzed with Huang Sicheng before, the four-way army of devils is coming. Although the Japanese army has an absolute advantage in terms of troops and weapons and equipment, because of the secret weapon, Ma Zheng believes that with Huang Bingyan's command level, the Japanese army will not be beaten to the hinterland of the base area.
For the headquarters of Naoji Sakai and Jiro Suhara from the direction of Zhangjiakou, Ma Zheng decided to let Chen Xudong's 12th Brigade and the newly formed 12th Brigade cooperate with the artillery regiment and engineer regiment directly under the headquarters to deal with them.
Moreover, these two Japanese troops are hard bones, so Ma Zheng does not think that these people under his command can inflict heavy damage or annihilate the enemy, and their task is to drag the two brigades of the 16th Division.
The real killer move was in the west, that is, Ma Desheng's cavalry group. This time, Ma Zheng wants the cavalry to sing the leading role.
Ma Desheng's division had to deal with the 4th Cavalry Brigade of Naito's and the Cavalry Division of the Puppet Mongolian Army, and the 4th Cavalry Brigade of the Japanese Army was indeed very strong in combat. It is one of the few brigade-level cavalry units of the Japanese army on the battlefield in China, and this unit will be expanded into the third tank division of the Japanese army in the future.
A wolf is terrible, but if the wolf brings a pack of pigs to run errands, it is much easier to deal with. This time, it was the first, second, and third cavalry divisions of the puppet Mongolian army that fought with the fourth cavalry brigade, and these numbers are not very familiar, yes, they are the puppet cavalry divisions that were continuously annihilated by Ma Zheng some time ago.
In view of the emptiness of the defense of the generation of Guisui and Baotou. With the support of the Japanese army, Li Shouxin rebuilt these divisions again some time ago. Some of the soldiers came from Japanese prisoners, and the other part was recruited by Li Shouxin from various Mongolian tribes.
Such a mixed recruit force will naturally not be strong there, and Ma Desheng's cavalry group is not only stronger than this enemy in terms of total strength. Moreover, it is also far stronger than the enemy army in terms of weapons and equipment and the quality of soldiers, coupled with the advantages in tactics and terrain, it is impossible to say that it is impossible to talk about the Japanese army without taking this road.
Generally speaking, Ma Zheng's tactics this time are to actively defend two roads, and then concentrate forces to attack the other two, as long as one or two of them are annihilated, the remaining two roads will be lonely, and they will inevitably collapse without a fight.
Jining, the headquarters of the Suicha base area.
Although many meetings have been held between people from all sides, it has not been long since the actual meeting, and the meetings in the Suicha base area are still continuing.
In the face of the menacing Japanese puppet army, the generals and officials in the base area had the same idea, that is, they must fight. After all, the base area is no longer the original base area with only three small hills, and if you can't beat it, you can run!
At present, the Suicha base area covers an area of several thousand square kilometers in eight counties, and there are more than 1.5 million people living in thousands of villages within the jurisdiction, so Yun Jian and the others are well aware of the heavy burden they have on their shoulders, and no one dares to be careless in the face of the 16th Division, which has the "reputation" of "beast soldiers." If such a Japanese army was allowed to enter the hinterland of the base area, the consequences would be an unpredictable disaster.
But there are different opinions on how to fight everyone, Yun Jian believes that for these Japanese troops, they must actively defend, as long as they hold out until Ma Zheng returns to the north and goes north, they will win. However, Wu Xiuda and others thought that this was too cowardly, and the casualties would definitely be extremely heavy, so they thought that they could take the initiative to attack.
Just when everyone was deadlocked, an operational staff officer hurriedly came in and said, "Report, commander, urgent telegram!" ”
Yun Jian hurriedly took the telegram and read it, then got up and said: "From now on, the commander will remotely command this anti-encirclement and suppression campaign on the front line in Wuhan, and the commander's battle plan is to fight two ways to intercept two roads, and order: The 201st Regiment of the Duqi Brigade, cavalry, artillery, and guard battalions will guard Fengzhen, use the mountain road between Datong and Fengzhen to block the Japanese army from moving north, and when the Japanese army advances to Ebaping Village, ten kilometers from Longshengzhuang, the special operations reserve will be allowed to assist the Duqi Brigade in destroying the Japanese armored forces. ”
"Order: The 12th Brigade of the Independence Brigade will make every effort to deal with the Japanese army Jiro Suwara's department, and use the mountain road from Huai'an to Xinghe to block the Japanese army. The only brigade cooperated with the artillery regiment, engineer regiment and cavalry regiment directly under the division headquarters to station in Shangyi County, and used the strong fortifications of Shangyi County to resist the enemy, and if necessary, it could abandon Shangyi County. At the same time, your two divisions strictly carried out the work of clearing the wilderness, evacuated all the civilians along the way, filled all the wells, mobilized the masses to destroy the roads along the way, and deliberately carried out large-scale mine warfare, in short, to stop the enemy's attack at all costs. ”
"Order, all the units under the cavalry group immediately assemble and move to Zhuozi Mountain, your troops will be the first force to launch a counteroffensive, and the commander of the specific tactical arrangements will contact you personally later."
Then Yun Jian said loudly: "Comrades, our Eighth Route Army is the people's arm, and our duty is to protect the safety of the people's lives and property from being violated. At first, the little devils sent a brigade to attack us, and we won. Later, the little devil sent a brigade-level organization to attack us, and we also won, and almost captured the old devil Sakai Hoji alive. This time, the little devils dispatched more than 30,000 people in a vain attempt to destroy us, and we will still win, because we have thousands of China's most simple people behind us to support us. ”
"Comrades, the commander asked me to convey a message to you: It is Japan's most elite army division that is fighting against us this time, and you people are the most elite and most effective troops in China in his eyes, so the commander does not think that this is just an ordinary encirclement and counter-encirclement and suppression, but a direct face-to-face collision of the souls of the two nations, and a face-to-face battle between the Chinese dragon soul and the Yamato demon soul, so we can only win this battle and not lose it."
