Headquarters of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The news of the Japanese army's capture of Shexian, Pingshun, Lucheng, and Licheng counties reached the headquarters of the 129th Division.
The commanders and fighters of the 129th Division were shocked.
But who knew that in less than a few hours, the situation suddenly changed!
The 512 Brigade suddenly returned to Shexian County!
And the prosperity of the soldiers, showing a momentum like a bamboo!
Chopping waves all the way, in just a few hours, the 110th Division of the Japanese army could not find the north, and destroyed several lines of defense deployed by it.
The ferocity of the offensive is simply appalling!
The commanders and fighters in the command post of the division headquarters all exclaimed in surprise.
"It's enjoyable, it's enjoyable!"
"This is a typical strategy to put oneself to death and survive!"
"That's right, give up the four counties of Shexian, Pingshun, Licheng, and Lucheng first, and vaguely release the news of going north to Xingtai to attract the Japanese 110th Division to attack."
"This plan not only cracked the Japanese army's fortress defense plan, but also trapped the Japanese army in the four counties, and maximized the mobility and firepower of the 512 Brigade!"
"Amazing!"
"I said what a lot of courage it takes!"
"Our entire Eighth Route Army, and his ~mother~ 512 Brigade have this strength, dare to fight hard with a division of the Japanese army!"
"Now it can be completely seen that it is necessary for us and the headquarters to retain the complete structure of the 512 Brigade at that time!"
Hearing the exclamatory words of the audience, the division commander Liu Bocheng, the division political commissar Deng Zong, the division chief of staff Li Da and others on the side also kept their heads bowed and smiled.
The 512 Brigade's attack is really eye-catching!
"Bring the map!"
Liu Bocheng shouted, and the staff officer of the division headquarters took all the maps of the western part of Handan and spread them out on the huge conference table one by one.
Shexian County, Pingshun County, Lucheng County, Licheng County and other places are all on paper.
Li Da, the chief of staff of the division, said with a smile: "Obediently, if you want me to say that he ~ Niang ~ Ouyang has a set, you look at the map he gave us, it is better than the military map of the little devil, and it is even accurate to every river, every village, and even the terrain trend of the mountains is all recorded on it!" ”
As soon as these words fell, another commander and fighter couldn't help laughing and said: "In my opinion, just talking about drawing, Ouyang is the top spot in our Eighth Route Army." ”
Drawing Leaderboard TOP.1 ?
This is not a hype from the crowd, but a fact.
With Ouyang's "God of Maps" skill turned on, coupled with field visits, the map drawn was really like a satellite aerial map.
Just this hand, not to mention in the Eighth Route Army, is to look at the whole country and look forward to the whole world, it is also TOP.1.
In a later battle in Europe, to be precise, the Normandy landings in June 1944, British Field Marshal Montgomery exclaimed: "In terms of drawing military maps alone, General Ouyang is the first person in the world!" ”
Marshall, a five-star general of the US Army, also praised many times later: "General Ouyang's drawing ability and the role he played in the war are completely worthy of an army, or even inferior to a group army!" ”

Division Commander Liu Bocheng said in a deep voice: "The key to determining the victory or defeat of the 512th Brigade and the 110th Division of the Japanese Army lies in Mushroom Ridge!" ”
Mushroom Ridge?
As soon as these words came out, all the commanders and fighters of the Eighth Route Army in the audience exclaimed.
"Won't it?"
Li Da, the chief of staff of the division, frowned and said, "Division commander, Mushroom Ridge is just a small hill, how can it become the winner or loser of this battle." ”
As soon as Li Da's words fell, some other people present also expressed their opinions.
"I agree with the words of the Chief of Staff."
"The battle between the 512th Brigade and the Japanese 110th Division, I think the key is still in the battle for Shexian County, Pingshun County and other four counties."
"That's right, according to the strength of the 512 Brigade, they will definitely be able to defeat the Japanese army and recapture the land of the four counties!"
"If you can encircle the Japanese army, then it will not be a problem to destroy more than 4,000 Japanese troops in this battle!"
Hearing what everyone said, the division commander Liu Bocheng laughed.
Mr. Deng, the political commissar of the division, also laughed.
"Huh!"
Mr. Deng shook his head and smiled: "More than 4,000 enemies were annihilated, are you underestimating the strength of the 512 Brigade too much?" Or to be precise, underestimating Liu Tongluo's appetite! ”
Underestimating appetite?
A group of commanders and fighters looked at each other.
"I see!"
Suddenly, Li Da, the chief of staff of the division, exclaimed: "Let's not talk about Liu Tongluo's appetite, let's talk about him Ouyang, this kid is a bold lord."
I think that at the beginning, when there were only more than 2,000 people under his hands, this kid dared to take a Japanese wing of more than 3,000 people;
Later, with the strength of a column, the Ishihara Brigade of the Japanese Army was destroyed.
Now that he has arrived at the 512th Brigade, he is definitely not drinking to catch up with the past.
This kid is thinking about a big battle!
Destroy more than 4,000 enemies?
Where will this satisfy his appetite? ”
Li Da said with a smile: "This time, I guess he Ouyang must have thought that he would be willing to give up after annihilating 8 or 9 thousand people." The goal of destroying the enemy has changed, and this plan of action is completely different. ”
Speaking of which, where is there anything that everyone present does not understand?
They were also frightened by Li Da's words and Ouyang's appetite!
"Hahaha!"
Division Commander Liu Bocheng laughed and said: "The chief of staff and Xiaoping are right, so recapturing the land of Shexian County, Pingshun County and other four counties is definitely not their ultimate goal, they are going with the goal of completely crippling the Japanese army 110 in the sky."
Therefore, holding the Mushroom Ridge and cutting off the back road of the Japanese army is the key to determining the victory or defeat of this battle! ”

Brigade headquarters of the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army.
"Mushroom Ridge, a radius of more than 10 miles, is located between Wu'an County and Shexian County, is the most important traffic zone connecting the two, and its surroundings are also densely covered with large and small mountains, whether our army can control Mushroom Ridge, and several mountains around it, will become the key to our army and the Japanese army, who will become the winner of this battle!"
Ouyang made a gesture on the map.
"That's right!"
Wang Yaqiao nodded and said: "If our army controls Mushroom Ridge, we will completely block the area west of Shexian County and cut off its rear road, so that our army can complete the goal of destroying the enemy to the greatest extent;
On the contrary, the Japanese army will have a strategic buffer margin, which can be defended and attacked in the near future.
Therefore, Mushroom Ridge must be in our hands no matter what! ”
Hearing this, Liu Tongluo and Zhao Gang also nodded frequently.
At that moment, Liu Tongluo immediately issued an order: "Order Long Fei to immediately lead the cavalry battalion directly under the brigade headquarters to quickly seize Mushroom Ridge;
Ordered the Fury Tank Company to go to Mushroom Ridge together;
Ordered Yang Zhihua of the artillery regiment to immediately lead an artillery unit to cover the operation.
Order Ding Wei of the New Second Regiment and all the New Second Regiment to join the battle of Mushroom Ridge, and be sure to take Mushroom Ridge within 3 hours and cut off the rear road of the Japanese army! ”

110th Division of the Japanese Army.
The commander of the division, Yoshio Kimura, roared: "Pass my order, order Igarashi Shaozo, lead his cavalry brigade, and rush to Mushroom Ridge to ensure the strategic position of Mushroom Ridge;
ordered Katsuo Edano to lead an artillery wing to cover the operation;
Ordered Aida Daisa, led the 211th Infantry Wing, and hurried to Mushroom Ridge. ”
For a time, both the 512th Brigade and the 110th Division of the Japanese Army were aware of the important role of Mushroom Ridge and its surrounding mountains in this battle.
Or rather, the decisive role!
Whichever side is in the hands of Mushroom Ridge will be able to occupy the leading position in the battle!
