Chapter 770: The Japanese at the End of the Road
On April 4, Chongqing was surrendered by the Central China Field Army under the defection of a part of the Guofu Army. Chang Kaishen left by plane on the eve of the city and arrived in Lanzhou. According to the information obtained by CPC, it seems that Chang Kaishen's eldest son got in touch with the Soviet Union because of his experience in the Soviet Union, so that the Soviet Union, which was dissatisfied with New China, was willing to temporarily take Chang Kaishen and his government-in-exile in.
However, the situation in the Soviet Union at this time was also very bad, the German army collected a large area of Soviet land, the Soviet Union lost 100 divisions in half a year, the big granary of Ukraine was lost, and now the Germans are targeting their oil again, and the situation is not optimistic.
Qi Yuan still doesn't understand, at this time the Soviet Union should curry favor with New China, in order to be able to gain the support of the Wheel King, so as to defeat the German army, but Staling did the opposite to find trouble with New China, it seems that this thinking circuit is really different from normal people.
At this time, the CPC of the newly established country wanted to fight steadily militarily, slowly sweep away the various warlords and remnants of the national army in the territory, and completely clean out the Japanese, but the ideal was very skinny and the reality was too full. After Chongqing was destroyed, news of "uprisings" and "surrenders" came almost every day from the Guofu army in various places, just like the Central China Field Army fought more and more during the Jingchu Campaign. Often a division is sent to deal with the enemy, and when the battle is over, not only tens of thousands of square kilometers of land have been captured, but 10,000 people are likely to become 100,000 men later.
In half a year, CPC accepted more than one million rebel surrender troops, and it was also a very troublesome matter to break them up, reorganize, reorganize, and rebuild. In particular, having to send a large number of veterans of the previous revolutionary army to these newly organized regiments to become grassroots officers also made the military scratch their heads.
Qi Yuan, who was a big-headed soldier a year ago, was also like riding a rocket, jumping two levels in a row within half a year, and now he has been promoted to lieutenant colonel, with a regiment under his command, or an armored regiment. Qi Yuan is a cultural person, and he revealed that he knew some things about armored combat, and then his superiors couldn't help but say, and directly stuffed him with a newly formed armored regiment, and asked him to fight while training.
At this time, Qi Yuan realized that he had stuffed too much armor into the PLA. At this time, the People's Liberation Army was not a German army, and it did not have so many armored troops, and even because the cultural process was not enough, and the industrial base was lacking, it was quite difficult to train armored troops who knew how to mechanically. Qi Yuan has provided more than 3,000 Type 59 tanks to CPC from the beginning to the present, although this number is not much compared to the Soviet Union, Germany and the United States, but think about the combat power of the 59 is generally better than the tanks of this era, in fact, the strength of the PLA armored forces is not weak.
However, there are too few soldiers in the command tower who can drive tanks, and the PLA also wants to train its own armored troops, so now more and more combat vehicles are assigned to new armored units, such as Qi Yuan's armored regiment, the combat vehicles are in a state of dissatisfaction, the total number is about 50 units, which is half of the actual full armored regiment. What's even more exaggerated is that now he is basically a car with two car groups, taking turns to get on the car, just like learning to drive.
Qi Yuan had to carry out high-intensity training for his soldiers in a down-to-earth manner, although after more than a month of hard training, he was definitely not a professional armored soldier, but he could still make a breakthrough that was not too difficult and crush the infantry.
Qi Yuan's armored regiment was later assigned to the South China Field Army and participated in the siege of Guangzhou. However, it is said that the People's Liberation Army is invincible on the mainland, Hubei, Sichuan, Xikang, Guizhou and other provinces have been taken one after another, and even Chang Kaishen has flown directly to the Soviet Union to take refuge, and the national government army in the whole country basically has no resistance, and now the PLA is doing more like another thing in the early fifties, a nationwide crackdown on bandits, in order to ensure domestic peace.
In a few cities such as Guangzhou, there were still some Japanese troops entrenched, and there were some literati who did not like red ideas before attacking CPC and Chang Kaishen all the way, and they must first settle down inside the country before clearing the Japanese army, and fought a civil war without clearing the Japanese army. Qi Yuan also understands what these people are planning, nothing more than to use public opinion, and then let CPC focus on the Japanese army and give himself a chance to breathe.
However, in fact, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) is grasping both sides of the security inside and outside, and both hands are hard to grasp, so the people do not care much about this matter. On the contrary, the accelerated collapse of the KMT regime made many people applaud.
The South China Field Army, which has been in existence for more than a month, now has 320,000 troops outside Guangzhou, while the Japanese army in South China has less than 100,000 troops, and the South China Field Army not only has a numerical superiority, but is not inferior in weapons. Not to mention that the armored units of the South China Field Army have 5 or 600 tanks and more than 200 self-propelled guns, and each soldier's light weapons are AK and SKS of the People's Liberation Army standard. The Japanese army's World War II weapons were inferior, and they were trapped here for a long time without local supplies, and the Japanese army's weapons and ammunition were severely depleted.
The Japanese garrison broke the jar at this time and threatened the South China Field Army, if the South China Field Army rashly attacked the city, then the Japanese army would use the civilians of Guangzhou as a meat shield, causing collateral damage to Yan Zòng. Even the Japanese army didn't want to fight a good war, the army lived directly in civilian houses, and they were scattered, and they didn't care about any organization and command, if it was shelling or air raids, then how many devils were killed, more civilians would be killed and wounded.
The South China Field Army Command couldn't help but be furious when they heard the news, but in the face of the scoundrels of the Japanese army, they had no special solution, so they could only ask the Wheel King to see if there was any way for the Wheel King to solve it.
After pondering and meditating, Qi Yuan came up with an optimal plan, he climbed the Wheel King to open the Mind Command Tower, flew to the sky over Guangzhou, and carried out mind control on a part of the Japanese army. He had used this method in Nanjing before, letting the accused Japanese soldiers and the devils who were not accused kill each other, and let the civil strife itself cause the collapse of the Japanese army.
However, even so, the Japanese troops who fought against them in the city still caused certain casualties. At this time, the South China Field Army waved its troops to attack the city again, and Qi Yuan hurried back to his troops and drove into Guangzhou with the armored regiment.
"It seems that there is really no way to recover." Standing in the headquarters in Guangzhou, Shunroku Hata, looking at the influx of Chinese troops, could not help but lament.
picked up a handful of ribs from the table and handed it to his adjutant: "Please help me make a mistake, maybe I should follow in the footsteps of His Majesty the Emperor and leave this world more than half a year ago." ”
The city of Guangzhou was broken, the last Japanese stronghold in the Guannai was captured, and the leader of the Japanese army invading China, Shunroku Hatata, committed suicide by disembowelment.
