The 63rd Army of the National ~ Army began at 9:30 on the 21st, from Pingling Town, Heyuan City, and retreated in the southwest direction, while the 5th Division of the Japanese Army was chasing with all its might. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Its powerful offensive dealt an incomparably huge blow to the 63rd Army of the National ~ Army.

By about 8 o'clock in the evening of the 21st, the strength of the 63rd Army of the National ~ Army was less than 10,000 people.

In just 14 hours, the number of casualties has exceeded 5,000.

The 11th and 12th Wings of the 5th Division of the Japanese Army, as well as the logistics wing, heavy artillery wing, and tank wing of the division, stopped at around 8 p.m. in the vicinity of Hetangling and set up camp.

However, the 5th Division of the Japanese Army did not stop the pursuit of the 63rd Army of the National ~ Army, and the Shibasaki Brigade under its jurisdiction led the 21st Wing and the 22nd Wing, and was chasing the National ~ Army all night long!

The offensive never stops!

In the words of division commander Ando Toshiyoshi, that is, to take advantage of the victory to pursue, constantly consume the living strength of the Chinese ~ national army, and fight all the way to the city of Guangzhou.

Hetang Ridge.

Lieutenant General Toshiyoshi Ando, commander of the 5th Division, smiled at a group of Japanese officers: "Gentlemen, my 5th Division has won a lot in today's battle, and the Chinese ~ army has been defeated, all of which is the credit of your concerted efforts!" When we take Guangzhou City in one go, I, Ando Toshikichi, will personally ask Commander Guzhuang Ganlang for credit for you! ”

"Shame!"

At that moment, a group of Japanese officers began to be modest, but their expressions were full of pride and excitement.

Division Commander Toshiyoshi Ando waved his hand and said: "Don't be modest, you all deserve it, you are all heroes of the imperial holy war, this time my 5th Division will quickly take Guangzhou and end this battle with your own hands!" ”

"Victory will only belong to our great 5th Division!"

Hearing this, all the Japanese officers present were full of enthusiasm, and the scene after the victory had already appeared in their minds!

Fresh flowers!

Applause!

Exploit!

Everything will be ours!

All the officers and men of the 5th Division of the Japanese Army believed that they had won this battle, and it would be a great victory, a great victory that would make the 5th Division famous and resound throughout East Asia again!

As everyone knows, they have now embarked on a road of death!

They were greeted not by flowers and applause, but by the onslaught of more than 90,000 people from the Chinese ~ army!

The upcoming war, no matter whether it wins or loses, will be destined to write a strong stroke in the modern history of China!

White Horse Mountain

Brigade headquarters of the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army.

At this moment, all the cadres above the regimental level of the 512 Brigade are gathered in the command post to make the final preparations for the upcoming big battle tomorrow.

512 Brigade Commander Ouyang, Political Commissar Zhao Gang, Chief of General Staff Wang Yaqiao, Deputy Brigade Commander Liu Tongluo;

Zhou Weiguo, head of the 885th Regiment, and Kong Jie, deputy head of the regiment;

Jiang Daya, head of the 886 regiment, Zhang Pujing, political commissar, and Chen Feng, deputy head of the regiment;

Li Yunlong, head of the Independent Regiment;

Long Dagu, the head of the new regiment, Zhang Dabiao, the deputy head of the regiment, and Cheng Mo, the political commissar;

Yang Zhihua, head of the artillery regiment, and Li Da, deputy head of the artillery regiment.

A total of 15 people.

In Ouyang's command post, there was no big long table in the ranks of the national army, and there was only a huge sand table.

At this moment, everyone is around the sand table.

Ouyang said in a deep voice: "Everyone, what does tomorrow's big war mean? I don't need to say it again, everyone knows in their hearts, if this battle is won, Guangzhou can be guaranteed, and Guangdong can be saved; If this battle is lost, our 512th Brigade and all units of the 12th Group Army of the National Army will be driven out of Guangdong by little devils like lost dogs! ”

Hearing this, everyone nodded heavily.

For a while, the atmosphere of the entire command post was extremely dignified and depressing!

Ouyang Yan said: "Let me explain once again the troop configuration of our side and the Japanese army. ”

"In this battle, our participating troops are the 63rd Army, the 66th Army, the 1st Independent Brigade, the 2nd Independent Brigade, the 3rd Independent Brigade of the National ~ Army, and General Cai's Hainan Army, together with the 512th Brigade of our Eighth Route Army, a total of more than 90,000 people."

"On the other hand, the 5th Division of the Japanese Army, which has 4 infantry wings, namely the 11th, 12th, 21st, and 22nd Wings, 1 tank wing, 1 engineer wing, 1 baggage wing, 1 heavy artillery brigade, and the rest of the strong master regiments composed of multiple arms, with a total strength of more than 22,000 people."

"Of course, after several days of fierce fighting, their total strength is less than 20,000, and the 11th Wing under their jurisdiction has been completely disabled, so there is nothing to worry about!"

After finishing speaking, Ouyang paused for a moment and looked at everyone's reactions.

Li Yunlong and the others' faces all showed a dignified look, but what satisfied Ouyang was that he didn't see a trace of fear on their faces.

This time, the opponent was the 5th Division of the Japanese Army, known as the "Steel Army", which was extremely powerful in combat, and although our side had an advantage in numbers, more than 4 times that of the Japanese army, it was only five or five points of victory and defeat!

There is no room for everyone to slack off at all!

The consequences of slackness are unbearable for everyone!

In a word, it is impossible to atone for his sins by death!

Ouyang pointed to the location of "Baishiling" on the sand table with a branch, and said in a deep voice: "This time, the main combat position of my Chinese~ army is this Baishiling, and all the battles are opened around this Baishiling!" ”

After a pause, Ouyang said: "Come and see, within 150 miles of Baishiling, in addition to Baishiling at the center point, there are more than 40 dangerous places of all sizes, such as Qinggang, Jiqishi, Tongguchi, Qushan, Baima Mountain, Damaogang, Centipede Ridge, and Pomegranate camphor. ”

"Any place within a radius of 150 miles with Baishiling as the center has the potential to evolve into our battlefield!"

"The entire encirclement is circular, and our main forces will be concentrated in five points, namely Jiqishi, Yangshiding, Songlingwa, Qushan, and Baima Mountain."

Chicken Cry Stone, located in the east direction of the center point of Baishiling, is garrisoned by the 3rd Independent Brigade of the 12th Group Army, and after the 63rd Army Zhang Ruigui's division retreats to Baishiling, it will defend this place together with the 3rd Brigade of the Independent Regiment;

Yangshiding, located in the northeast of Baishiling, is garrisoned by the 66th Army of the National ~ Army;

Songling Valley, located in the northwest of Baishiling, was garrisoned by the 1st and 2nd Independent Brigades of the 12th Group Army;

Qushan, located in the southwest of Baishiling, was garrisoned by General Cai Yi's Hainan Army;

White Horse Mountain, located directly south of Baishiling, is garrisoned by the 512th Brigade of our Eighth Route Army.

Li Yunlong, the commander of the Independent Regiment, was puzzled: "Brigade commander, in addition to these five major strategic points, within a radius of 150 miles, are there any points that are defended by our people?" ”

At that moment, Ouyang replied: "In addition to the above five points, the rest of the mountains and ravines, large and small, basically all have our people, but the number is different, the most may have a battalion, a regiment, and a few, there may only be a company, or even a platoon or a squad. ”

Suddenly, Zhou Weiguo answered: "Brigade commander, then what do you mean to say that except for the five major strategic points, the rest of the small points are randomly floating, are they used to drive away, encircle, and attract troops?" ”

"That's right!"

Ouyang replied: "That's right, the meaning of the existence of the remaining dozens of points is to prevent the Japanese army from running away by taking advantage of the gap, and the main battle location is still the five points we just said." ”

"These 5 points are very important, and if any point is lost, then our entire encirclement network will also face a collapse, which means that our operation to encircle and kill the 5th Division of the Japanese Army will be declared bankrupt!"

The meeting lasted for two hours before it stopped.

Finally, Ouyang said in a deep voice: "Okay, everyone go down and prepare, tomorrow is the Armageddon!" ”

"Yes, Brigadier General!"

At that moment, everyone responded loudly.

~~~~~~~

Tonight, both for us and for the 5th Division of the Japanese Army, is destined to be a sleepless night!

Ouyang sighed: "The night will pass soon!" ”

The dawn will begin!

The Great War is coming!
