Chapter 100 Joint Operations
Since he decided that the Japanese would concentrate on attacking the Cadet Army, Ouyang Yun devoted himself to preparing for war during this time, and did not dare to relax in the slightest. The telegram was sent by Shan Xiong at about one o'clock in the morning, and at this time, Ouyang Yun was talking on the phone with Chu Tiange, talking about launching a major sabotage operation with the guerrillas of other factions in Jiangxi, Hubei and Anhui provinces.
In the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the originator of guerrilla warfare was naturally the armed forces led by the first party, and with the Japanese army moving the front inland, guerrilla warfare has been ubiquitous, and now, in Anhui, Hubei, and Jiangxi, there are about 20 such armed forces, among them, the largest guerrilla troops of the Math Army and the Sichuan Army guerrilla column commanded by Li Zongren.
When he was still defending Nanjing, Ouyang Yun annexed two Sichuan army divisions, thus offending the Sichuan warlord Yang Sen. Later, during the Battle of Madang, Li Zongren made a match, allowing Ouyang Yun to exchange some weapons and equipment for Yang Sen's forgiveness, and developed into an ally. The Scholar Army and the Sichuan Army became allies, which was of great benefit to the development of both sides - the Sichuan Army continuously obtained weapons and equipment from the Scholar Army, and after a lot of sports warfare, it gradually stood out and became a pivotal force in the anti-Japanese armed forces of various factions in China. This not only strengthened Yang Sen's position and made someone in Chongqing dare not want to annex his armed forces at every turn, but at the same time, because of the existence of this ally, the Xuebing Army has gained more political power, and now it can express its own opinions on some strategic decisions, and affect the decision-making of Chongqing.
The guerrilla units of the Xuebing Army went north to Jiangxi, and soon occupied areas where the Japanese army did not have sufficient control, and began to threaten the logistical supply lines of the main Japanese forces participating in the Battle of Changsha, and if it were not for the fact that the Japanese army had already retreated and decided to give up the capture of Changsha, Chu Tiange's guerrilla troops would inevitably exert greater influence, and might even completely cut off the Japanese army's retreat.
Chu Tiange suddenly proposed to Ouyang Yun to organize a large-scale sabotage battle, because the Japanese army was in the process of retreating because of different military orders, and the commander of the 33rd Division, Gan Shigetaro, was greedy for military merits and delayed the retreat for two days, and as a result, he seriously derailed from the large army, was caught up by Xue Yue's main force, and was pinned down in the area of Gao'an, west of Nanchang. Chu Tiange thought that Okamura Ningji would definitely send reinforcements to rescue the 33rd Division, and felt that this was an opportunity to take advantage of it, so he had this suggestion.
Ouyang Yun was very moved. There are many hills in the area of Nanchang in Jiangxi, which is really conducive to small troops to carry out raids and disturbances. And if Okamura Ninji dares to gather troops to encircle and suppress, then the Xuebing Army can completely take off fighters from Guangzhou to carry out a surprise attack, in that case, not only can it kill and injure the enemy on a large scale, but more importantly, it can delay the speed of the Japanese army's build-up and delay the time for it to launch a general attack, which is definitely a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.
Of course, considering that the Japanese army maintained a large military presence in Jiangxi, Hubei and Anhui, it was also important to attack and harass them in Hubei and Anhui in order to prevent them from being heavily entrenched by the Japanese army. And this has to turn to the guerrillas and the guerrilla columns of the Sichuan army that maintain their presence in these two places.
The military-industrial enterprises of the Cadet Army now have a considerable scale. Among them, the No. 1 Ordnance Factory, which specializes in the production of firearms, has already experienced overcapacity. Ouyang Yun has never been a stingy person, and he is also familiar with the trend of history, so he naturally will not make a mistake of principle, and plant evil cause and effect because of a momentary stinginess, laying some bad foreshadowing for his future. Therefore, at the beginning, it was only limited support, but later, as long as Huang Zhen could afford the money, he dared to sell it, and even the kind of anti-materiel sniper rifle that only a base-level sniper was qualified to use, he sold several pieces.
Effort always pays off. Ouyang Yun believes that as long as he is willing to ask *** for help, then the other party will definitely agree to this cooperation.
As for the guerrilla columns of the Sichuan army, there is no problem. In the past, the Sichuan army was the most tragic team in the history of the Anti-Japanese War, the Sichuan army was poorly trained, poorly equipped, and had limited combat effectiveness, so it was always used as cannon fodder. This is also the main reason for the huge sacrifice of the Sichuan army in the eight years of the Anti-Japanese War. And in this time and space, it is different, since Yang Sen took over the Sichuan army, although the Sichuan army once suffered huge losses due to the above historical reasons, but the self-taught army began to support their equipment, and the current battle loss ratio of the Sichuan army has dropped to an acceptable level. The Sichuan people are straightforward and happy, and Ouyang Yun is also confident to persuade Yang Sen to participate in this operation and teach the little devil a painful lesson together.
Reinforcements are not a problem, what Ouyang Yun and Chu Tiange talked about the most was the steps of action, how to do it to ensure the killing and damage while preserving their own strength. Although the weapons and equipment of the guerrilla units of the Cadet Army were inferior to those of the main forces, they were not too much different. For example, the rifles were almost identical, and the guerrillas were more equipped with grenades, mines, grenadiers and grenades than the main forces.
"The life of every student soldier is priceless, let's use more mines, anyway, we don't lack this!" Ouyang Yun said, "Adopt more tactics to lure the enemy into depth, so that the little devil feels that he can annihilate us, but he is always a little worse, and then choose a better terrain to ambush him." In guerrilla warfare, the most important thing is to be mobile and flexible. You have been fighting guerrilla for so many years, and you have more experience than me......" Ouyang Yun was saying this, when Pan Meiren knocked on the door and came in, handing him a telegram from a single male.
"Big brother, Commander Shan's telegram, that is back from Nagasaki!"
"Oh?" Ouyang Yun became interested, and he first said to Chu Tiange: "Tiange, the specific tactics and tactics, you discuss them with the staff officers more, and the front line will be handed over to you." I need air support, and I will solve the matter of friendly forces. Don't dismantle this communication line, we'll use it to communicate. I still have something to do, so let's do it first! ”
"Yes!"
Seiichiro Kuroda would never have thought that the nickname given to him by Shen Gen'er would actually spread to Guangzhou, and even the commander-in-chief of the Cadet Army would know about it. After reading the telegram, Ouyang Yun rubbed his temples and said, "This Nagasaki and his party are still very fruitful!" It's a pity that I couldn't kill that bastard of Koizumi. Jiang Yonggang and they sacrificed very heroically, you go to Minister Ji tomorrow and discuss the matter of compensation with him. All the trainees who participated in this operation were given compensation according to the unified standard, and they still don't know if Lu Dao would have a chance to come back-" Shan Renxiong mentioned in the telegram the attack on the "Kaga" aircraft carrier, especially mentioning that because of Jiang Yonggang's actions, Kuroda and others seem to have suffered a lot. That's why Ouyang Yun specifically mentioned the matter of bereavement.
Previously, the telegram of the Emperor of the Ancients had already mentioned the raid on the "Kaga" aircraft carrier by Jiang Yonggang and others, but because he was vague, Ouyang Yun did not issue an order to issue a bereavement pension. And now, with Kuroda and these devils "testifying", it is time for the compensation.
The blood of heroes cannot be shed in vain!
