At this time, the battle situation of the entire Sanjin Dynasty presented the following parts:

The first part is inside the Yellow Cliff Cave, where more than 3,000 elites of the 36th Division of the Japanese Army were completely trapped in the Yellow Cliff Cave by the collapsed first-line Sky Canyon passage.

The Japanese army and the Eighth Route Army relied on the topography of the mountains inside Huangya Cave to engage in a confrontation.

Due to the complete isolation of the first-line Sky Canyon passage, the Japanese troops who entered the interior of the Yellow Cliff Cave were isolated, and the devils had to frequently carry out air fire reinforcements from the nearby temporary airfield in Licheng.

At the very least, the Japanese army had nearly one flying squadron, which was almost firmly pinned down in the inner area of Huangya Cave.

Since the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, this has been a rare occurrence for the Japanese army.

The flying units of the Japanese army, which occupied absolute air supremacy, were firmly pinned down by the troops of the Eighth Route Army on the ground, and they did not dare to completely withdraw from the battlefield at all.

This invisibly shared the pressure of the devil's air firepower reinforcement for the battlefields in other regions.

In addition, more than 100 troops of the Airborne Army led by the Japanese army Nakazuo Shimada Shozo also successfully parachuted into the mountains inside the Yellow Cliff Cave, waiting for an opportunity to sabotage and sneak attack.

The second part is in the combat area of the outer line of Huangya Cave, which is isolated by the collapsed first-line Tiangu passage, and the elite of the 36th Division of the Devil on the outer line of Huangya Cave, as well as some of the elites of the 3rd, 9th, and 16th mixed brigades who arrived with subsequent reinforcements, fought with the troops of the Eighth Route Army reinforcing Huangya Cave along the way.

The third part is in the eastern part of Taihang, the base area of the 385th Brigade.

The Japanese Army's 3rd Mixed Brigade was the mainstay, including part of the field troops of the 9th and 16th Mixed Brigades, plus the North China Public Security Army, nearly 20,000 Japanese puppet troops. Continue to break through to the hinterland of the 386th Brigade base area and carry out sweeps.

Brigade Commander Chen, who controls the overall situation, is a fairly senior angler.

Even if the Japanese army went all the way deep, the big fish already had half of its mouth hanging on the hook.

Brigade Commander Chen still waited unhurriedly, and finally the moment when the big fish completely bit the hook and was hung on the hook.

will launch the final decisive battle with the momentum of thunder and burst out with all its strength.

The battlefield in the fourth part is also the last to take place.

It was in the base area of the 386th Brigade and the winter counteroffensive launched by the Iron Triangle in the northwest of Shanxi Province with the help of this winter, and a large number of quasi-security areas that originally belonged to the Japanese army were occupied.

The 26th Division of the Japanese Army stationed in Datong, as well as the cavalry group stationed in Datong, cooperated with the First Army stationed in Shanxi to quickly move south, and went straight to the north of Taihang.

Two Japanese cavalry wings, plus a mechanized combat unit of the 26th Division of the Japanese Army, were the first to approach the outer defense area of the Iron Triangle.

Immediately, with lightning speed, they launched a fierce attack on the area occupied by the three regiments of the Iron Triangle in the winter counteroffensive.

The four parts mentioned above are the four parts of the battlefield that can be easily analyzed on the bright side.

It was also at this moment that the general headquarters of the Eighth Route Army hung on the huge military operation map hanging on the wall, and the staff officers carried out the work on the map, gradually presenting an intricate overall situation.

"At the moment, the battlefield in all four parts is basically stable.

Inside the Yellow Cliff Cave, more than 3,000 Japanese troops are just turtles in the urn, and it is only a matter of time before and after the elimination of this little devil.

In the battle outside Huangya Cave, our army used guerrilla tactics to contain the main force of the Japanese army, and it also fell into a stalemate for the time being.

Don't worry about the 385 Brigade, Lao Chen is still ready to make a fortune!

The 386 Brigade Defense District has also been prepared for a long time.

As for Ding Wei, Li Yunlong, and Kong Jie's defense areas, Ding Wei had already made a report two days ago, and he had already prepared the overall layout.

Now only the direction of the Northwest Military Region remains, and Li Yunlong and Kong Jie finally carried out the plan of surprise attack on the Japanese army in Datong.

Boss, we can now say that we are firmly seated in the Diaoyutai! ”

The commander-in-chief nodded, and there was a smile on his face.

If the operation around the Huangyadong Arsenal is done well, it may be possible to take the opportunity to break the Japanese army's increasingly strong military blockade of the base areas since the Battle of the Hundred Regiments.

In order to alleviate the increasingly difficult predicament in the base areas.

This is like the Zhengtai Battle launched in order to break the vicious cage policy of the little devils.

Only by completely breaking all the methods of the devils can the Eighth Route Army move towards a brighter future.

However, the tide of battle is always so fast-moving.

In many cases, non-human beings can take control.

As the situation continues to evolve.

The four local battlefields that were originally on the surface soon evolved into a dozen or even dozens of battlefields, large and small.

The defense area of the Iron Triangle in the northwest of Shanxi.

Ding Wei, this is a master who is not afraid of heaven and earth, and can cause trouble.

And Li Yunlong, as well as the team brought out by Kong Jie and the generals at all levels of the new Second Regiment, were deeply influenced by the two regiment commanders.

Everyone is afraid that the world will not be chaotic.

When Ding Wei proposed at the temporary joint headquarters: "This little devil of the First Army, this time the devil of the joint army stationed in Mongolia is going south, preparing to attack our Eighth Route Army base on both sides.

We have to do a good job defensively, but we can't lose our spirit either.

A battle that doesn't even go on the offensive can be considered a battle? ”

In this regard, Shen Quan, the commander of the Third Independent Regiment, thought deeply: "The best defense is to attack, in the Battle of Cangyunling that year, several of our regiments directly launched a frontal attack, and the devil was caught off guard, which turned the tide of the war in one fell swoop!" ”

"Lao Shen said it well!"

Ding Wei nodded and continued: "So, I mean that this time we have a division of labor, and divide our defensive forces into two parts, one part is the defensive force, and the other part is the offensive force.

The members of the offensive unit must be veterans with rich combat experience and interspersed combat experience.

In this regard, I have an idea, our defensive force is defined as the bear army, the bear represents the earth, thick and strong, and the defense is the most powerful.

As for the offensive troops, they are defined as wolf troops, and the wolf packs are cunning and ferocious, closely coordinated, united, and most suitable for attacking. ”

Xu Guoan, the chief of staff of the first team, was surprised when he heard this: "Lao Ding, this is very interesting, but how to distinguish between offensive troops and defensive troops?" ”

"I've thought about this for a long time, it's very simple, let's draw some marks on the left side of the soldiers' steel helmets as a distinction.

Just use a white marker, it's simple, just draw an ear, the wolf's ears are pointed, and the bear's ears are round.

Whether it is an offensive force or a defensive force, you can tell at a glance!

When fighting across regions, we can also use this to prove the identity of our troops and avoid misunderstandings with friendly forces. ”

Ding Wei said with a smile.

This was a really good idea, and the cadres nodded their heads one after another, indicating that they would prepare for the return and draw troops suitable for the attack from the ranks.

At this time, Lei Dasheng, the head of the independent regiment, spoke again:

"Comrades, I have another suggestion, I think that our offensive force should not only be a regular interspersed force, but also a mobile combat force with high-speed mobility and suddenness.

We have to let the little devil raised by the son of a son of a dog see what is the mobile defensive operation of our Eighth Route Army.

Our defense can't be immutable, it can't be held in a position, brainlessly bombarded by devils.

Mobilize our mobile combat units, whether they are cavalry troops, bicycle troops, or mechanized combat units, in short, they are all sent out to attack and attack the devils from all directions.

At the same time, reinforcements to local battlefields can be carried out at any time.

At that time, it will not be us who will be in a hurry, but his little devil! ”

Everyone immediately agreed, and everyone brainstormed, but if there is a good method, it can be put into practice.

In this way, each clever plan was implemented one by one after discussion among the cadres.

Immediately afterward, the evolution of the battle situation was unexpected by all parties.

even exceeded the expectations of Ding Wei and his party, who were the initiators......

First of all, the cavalry units and mechanized combat units of the Mongolian army were the first to arrive in the area occupied by the Iron Triangle winter offensive and directly launched a surprise attack.

According to the devil's original plan, with the help of the mobility of the mobile force, he suddenly launched an attack on the outer line of the three Eighth Route Army combat regiments in the Iron Triangle.

It will definitely be able to catch the Eighth Route Army off guard.

As a result, the astuteness shown by the troops of the Eighth Route Army greatly exceeded the expectations of the Japanese army.

In the face of the thunderous offensive of the mobile troops of the little devils stationed in Mongolia, the officers and men of the Eighth Route Army, who originally occupied a large number of strongholds and artillery towers with the help of the winter offensive, reacted very quickly.

After sending corresponding troops along the way to block the attack, a certain amount of time was successfully obtained.

The officers and men of the Eighth Route Army, who were originally defending in strongholds and turrets, evacuated from the forts of various strongholds without any delay.

Avoid being completely trapped and eliminated by the attacking forces of the Japanese army.

In fact, the occurrence of this situation was also greatly unexpected by the Japanese military command department.

Especially the cavalry of the Mongolian army that quickly moved south, as well as the devil soldiers of the mechanized combat unit.

In the past two years, their ears have been filled with how rampant and cunning the troops of the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang base area are.

Especially the Iron Triangle in the northwest of Jin, how strong and difficult it is.

To exaggerate a little, the equipment level of the three regiments in the Iron Triangle in the northwest, especially the Eighth Route Army of the first independent detachment of the anti-Japanese resistance in the northwest of Shanxi.

I heard that it has surpassed the elite combat units of the Empire.

In fact, the officers of the Mongolian army have always been reluctant to believe this.

It's not that they haven't dealt with the Eighth Route Army in northern Jin, and those Tu Eighth Route Army are obviously backward in equipment, ammunition is scarce, and the level of equipment is very different from that of the Imperial Japanese Army.

However, what the officers of the First Army said was serious.

In addition, the First Army was repeatedly defeated in the hands of the troops of the Eighth Route Army in Taihang.

The name of the Iron Triangle even spread among the troops stationed in Mongolia.

Therefore, this time they went south to reinforce the First Army and fought for the first time with the Eighth Route Army in the Iron Triangle, although the devil officers stationed in Mongolia did not believe in evil, they did not think that such a powerful Eighth Route Army existed.

But out of safety, this attack is still more cautious.

After all, the commander of the First Army, His Excellency Yoshio Shinozuka, is not a vegetarian either.

Even His Excellency the Commander has a headache with this iron triangle.

Perhaps the Eighth Route Army here is really different.

The result......

After the cavalry of the Mongolian army and the mechanized combat units launched a surprise attack.

In the eyes of these devils who were originally stationed in the Mongolian army, they should be extremely strong and have a very tough will to fight the Iron Triangle of the Eighth Route Army.

He even directly abandoned all kinds of fortifications, including strongholds, artillery towers, and rural towns.

Escaped?

The little devil of the Mongolian army was stunned, and then laughed mockingly.

What a bullshit Eighth Route Army Iron Triangle, that's just it.

The First Army was frightened by such a dirt road, which was really an insult to the majesty of the Japanese Empire.

Seeing that the offensive was like a bamboo, the mobile troops of the Mongolian army taking advantage of the momentum quickly occupied the strongholds, turrets, towns and villages that the Eighth Route Army of the Iron Triangle had voluntarily abandoned.

At this time, from a general point of view, the Eighth Route Army, which seemed to be an iron triangle, could not stop the offensive of the mobile troops stationed in Mongolia and was forced to withdraw completely.

】

The little devils of the Mongolian army easily captured a large area of the base area laid down by the Eighth Route Army in the Iron Triangle during the winter offensive.

Just after entering the war, such fruitful results were achieved.

The devil officers of the Mongolian army are almost cocking their tails to the sky.

After the news reached the headquarters of the surrounding Japanese-occupied counties.

These devil officers who often dealt with the Eighth Route Army in the Iron Triangle were full of astonishment, but they did not hesitate, and hurriedly sent security forces to assist the troops stationed in Mongolia in the south, and took over the villages, towns, and strongholds abandoned by the Eighth Route Army.

With the gradual arrival of reinforcements from the follow-up garrison in Mongolia.

These stronghold turrets, villages and towns closest to the Iron Triangle base area have become the most convenient transportation hubs and logistics transit stations for the Japanese army.

Of course, the little devil is not stupid, and he also suspects that the Eighth Route Army has so easily abandoned the stronghold of the winter offensive.

Will there be any pitfalls?

Therefore, after reoccupying these strongholds and turrets, the Japanese army also conducted internal security checks, but found no problems.

It seems that it is still the artillery tower they were familiar with in the past, but the fortifications have been specially reinforced by these Eighth Route Army.

On the contrary, it facilitated the defense of the Japanese army.

In addition, the battle situation was tense and the stronghold was reoccupied, and the devils and puppet soldiers in the turret didn't think much about it.

……

Temporary Joint Command of the Iron Triangle in the Northwest of Shanxi Province.

It was learned that the units of the front had taken the initiative to withdraw from the strongholds occupied by the winter offensive in accordance with the battle plan.

The little devils of the Mongolian army have also been fully stationed in those areas.

Ding Wei, who had been waiting for this moment for a long time, ordered with excitement:

"Comrades, the time is ripe, tomorrow we will first put the devil's mobile troops into the base area and lock up all the roadblocks that the mobile troops can pass.

Our attacking troops took the opportunity to make a detour back to the outer line, and first knocked down all the strongholds, turrets, towns, and villages occupied by the devils.

The devil's cavalry and mobile troops will be completely caught in our base area, and I want to see how his little devil escapes.

Wait until you completely defeat the mobile troops of the devil's army stationed in Mongolia.

Let's give the little devils a good defensive annihilation war.

This time the devil just wants to run, hum, it's not that easy! ”
