1267 Start War, Start War, Go to War!

"So far, the time is ripe, the entire North China and even Central China and South China have been completely turned into a pot of porridge, and the dispatched army of this devil includes the Kwantung Army going south, and the main force is all contained in the pass by our army, and it is impossible to gather troops in a short period of time to respond quickly."

"Hit!"

"Take the opportunity to break out of the Mengdong defense line and completely break through the western defense line of puppet Manchuria."

When the joint command was discussing the specific plan for sending troops, Commander Fu took the lead in putting forward his own ideas.

Since the construction of the Mengdong defense line, coupled with the operation around the Mengdong defense line, the Kwantung Army and the Mongolian army stationed in Mongolia have successfully repelled it.

Commander Fu and even the officers and soldiers of the 35th Route Army had long been looking forward to attacking the puppet Manchuria.

Now that the reality is mature, everyone is holding back a lot of energy in their hearts, and they just want to kill the devil happily after entering the puppet Manchuria.

In order to advance safely, the Eighth Route Army secretly assembled the main force on the Mengdong defense line, and the 35th Route Army, the 120th Division, and the 129th Division Headquarters also jointly formed a joint command.

After Commander Fu's words fell, the deputy chief of the general staff said:

"What the old man said is right, the purpose of our construction of the Mengdong defense line was to paralyze the Japanese army's judgment on the bright side to resist the attack of the Mongolian army and the Kwantung army.

Now this line of defense is the best cover for us to send troops to the puppet Manchuria.

No matter how the offensive deployment to the puppet Manchuria is arranged, this breakthrough through the Mengdong defense line to the outer defense line of the Japanese army must be the first step we have to take.

At present, the Guannai has been completely chaotic, and we must seize the time to build and improve the defensive offensive of the original Mengdong defense line in the direction of the fortifications.

The specific attack on puppet Manchuria is generally arranged, and according to the results of our discussions in the past few days, it is divided into four major stages.

The first stage: break through the fortifications built by the devils on the opposite side of the Mengdong defense line, and completely tear the gap in the defense line set up by the Japanese army in the western part of puppet Manchuria.

According to our original plan, with the old 129th Division as the main force, we will seek to take advantage of the emptiness of the Kwantung Army's strength and the fact that it has not been able to recover at all, and completely gain a firm foothold to open up the situation.

At the same time, the troops in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base area launched an offensive against the Mongolian army stationed in Zhangjiakou, containing the Mongolian army, not giving the devils a chance to advance northward, and laying cover for the advance of the 129th Division.

In addition, the troops in the Jireliao base area completely destroyed the Jinzhou-Beiping section of the railway, and it was necessary to cut off the railway artery between the North China Dispatch Army and the Kwantung Army.

In the third stage, after capturing Chifeng, Chengde, Xilin Gol, Hailar and other places, the northern cluster took the opportunity to cross the central cluster of the North Xing'an Mountains and the Central Circle of the Zhongda Xing'an Mountains to break through the central defense line of the Great Xing'an Mountains, capture Qiqihar, make a feint on the ice city, and conquer the Yichun area with a partial division.

The southern cluster advanced to the periphery of Jinzhou and attacked Tongliao.

In the fourth stage, relying on the Great Khing'an Mountains, the northern cluster, the central cluster, and the southern cluster used Tongliao, Qiqihar, and Qingcheng to engage in a tug-of-war with the Kwantung Army in winter.

In order to initially form a confrontation situation with the Kwantung Army in the puppet Manchurian region......

At the meeting that followed, the deputy commander-in-chief and the deputy chief of general staff discussed in detail the specific plan for troop dispatch, the corresponding route selection, logistical preparations, and the unit's coordinated operational planning on the roughly determined four stages of troop deployment.

This is a campaign-level military decision-making conference.

The last to make the decision, of course, was the deputy commander-in-chief.

Kong Jie, on behalf of the Special Experimental Zone, and on behalf of the Iron Triangle Group Army, attended the meeting.

At the meeting, he didn't speak much, and he always listened to the opinions and analyses of the leaders.

Kong Jie has also discussed the specific plan for advancing the troops with the leaders many times.

This time, his task was nothing else, that is, to command the Iron Triangle Group Army to lead the Iron Triangle mechanized combat troops to the northern part of the Great Khing'an Mountains to make a rapid detour assault after the successful conclusion of the first phase of the Mengdong defensive line, take the lead in overcoming the Japanese army's Hailar fortress group, gain a firm foothold in the northern part of puppet Manchuria, and lead it to North Manchuria

The Kwantung Army responded to the operations of the Eighth Route Army on the central and southern fronts.

As for the first phase of the operational offensive launched on the Mengdong defensive line.

After the meeting, Kong Jie returned to the headquarters of the Iron Triangle Army.

The face is slumped.

Li Yunlong saw Kong Jie's face, and immediately exploded: "I said Lao Kong, don't tell me that you didn't even have a main task when you went to the meeting this time, right?"

Kong Jie was silent and didn't speak for the first time, and Li Yunlong's crackling words then smashed down:

"Lao Kong, Lao Kong, what are you asking me to say about you? Since we fought half a year ago, we prepared to advance to the north, our Iron Triangle Army has been hidden, so many big battles, from northern Henan to Jiaodong, and then to Mengdong, we have not caught a single one.

This time, the troops have finally gathered in Mengdong, and the battle to advance northward is about to begin, don't tell me that we still haven't fought.

If it goes on like this, let alone fighting, I'm afraid our old Li's gun will be rusty!

You said that your old Kong is now the No. 1 figure in our Eighth Route Army, why are you so cowardly? Why don't you dare to jump up and fight with the deputy commander-in-chief?

I said that you should bring me with you at this meeting, with our Lao Li here, who dares to compete with Lao Tzu for the main task? It's against him!"

Looking at Li Yunlong, who was quite excited, Kong Jie just glanced at him lightly, and then said calmly: "Lao Li, if I remember correctly, the last time I went to the headquarters for a meeting, we went together, who was it in the end?" The whole world, which is usually loud and shouting, can't wait to hear it, but as a result, I didn't even dare to fart at the meeting.

What's up?

This time I'm going to bring you Lao Li with you, how dare you Lao Li jump up and fight with the old brigade commander and teacher?"

Ahem cough cough –

Li Yunlong choked, in fact, he was bragging and bragging, and when he really came to the old brigade commander, the teacher, and the deputy commander-in-chief, he Li Yunlong was like a mouse surrounded by a group of cats, where did he dare to jump up and down.

"Besides, I didn't say that I didn't have the main mission this time!"

"Huh?" Li Yunlong was stunned, his big face, which originally looked like an old wolf's bared teeth, almost burst into laughter in an instant: "So, we really have the main attack task?"

Ding Wei on the side was so happy: "Haha, Lao Zhao, what you said is good, watching Lao Li's face change is purely watching comedy, and it's so fast that people can't react!"

Look, I was baring my teeth just now, and now I'm waging my tail again."

Everyone laughed.

Li Yunlong said indifferently:

"You just laugh at me, anyway, Lao Tzu has a fight, this heart is happy, and I don't care about you generally. Lao Kong, hurry up and tell me, what is the main attack task that the headquarters has arranged for us this time?"

Kong Jie said: "The order of the headquarters, although we are not allowed to make a full-scale attack by the Iron Triangle Army this time, the task of the vanguard assault force of the main attack force is ours.

We are responsible for forming an elite armored force, cooperating with the main force, as a vanguard, as a sharp knife, taking the lead in tearing the devil's defense line through the gap, and assisting the main force to completely open up the situation."

Hearing this, Li Yunlong was a little depressed: "Damn, the relationship is to be a pioneer, I thought I could start a full-scale fight!"

"What's the hurry, Lao Li, when you reach the north of the Great Xing'an Mountains, there will be a happy battle for you to fight!" Kong Jie said with a smile.

The task assigned by the command to the Iron Triangle Group Army this time is precisely to give full play to the advantages of the Iron Triangle Group Army as an elite mechanized combat unit of the Eighth Route Army.

In particular, the advantages of advanced mechanized armored combat units.

"Use the armored forces as sharp knives to break through first, tear the devil's defense line apart, and the coordinated infantry quickly follow up to further consolidate and expand the breakthrough to meet the advance of the main force."

When talking about specific offensive tactics, Li Yunlong spoke.

"Hehe, this is since the formation of our armored forces, after experiencing many battles of armored troops, our Lao Li summed it up

The best combat plan for the coordination of the infantry and the tank."

"And it is very suitable for the specific defensive fortifications of the Japanese army, the devil's defensive line, the trenches are not dug deeply, and there are no anti-tank fortifications for our large-scale tank attacks.

β€”β€”The little devils outside the Mengdong defense line most likely think that it is impossible for us to take the initiative to attack the puppet Manchuria.

In addition, during this time, the entire North and Central China regions have been disrupted, and a lot of little devils in this area have also been transferred, and the defensive strength is relatively weak.

Our armored forces have suddenly launched a surprise attack, and this devil can react to it."

"Then fight quickly, if you don't fight, it's amazing!"

Kong Jie said categorically: "Don't give the little devil the slightest chance to turn the tables, everyone look at the map, this time in order to cooperate with the advance of the main force, we have transferred nearly two elite armored corps, divided into four offensive directions, regardless of the main and secondary, and advance at the same time."

The specific way of attack is still in accordance with the old rules, since we now have an advantage in equipment, we should make use of our strengths and avoid weaknesses.

After the heavy artillery assault was first used to completely suppress the firepower of the Japanese defense line with smoke bombs, the artillery and infantry tanks were directly launched to coordinate and completely break through the devil's fortifications with lightning speed before the Japanese army's new round of firepower counterattack network was reconstructed.

This offensive, as the sharp knife of our armored forces as the main vanguard force, can also be said to be the first battle of this northward advance battle plan.

It's a good start.

Pull out our Type 43 200mm long-range heavy rocket launcher and make a show, this time we will use a cattle slaughtering knife to kill chickens, what we want is to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, and directly crush the military self-confidence of the Kwantung Army in one battle."

This Type 43 200 mm long-range heavy rocket is a new type of inertial guided rocket produced by the Iron Triangle Defense Group after introducing mechanical gyroscope-related technology from the United States.

The rocket launcher is equipped on the heavy-duty chassis of the Stark all-terrain tractor, using a modular launch box design, with a range of 60 kilometers, relatively high accuracy, good maneuverability, and continuous fire output in a short time with a special loading vehicle.

The Type 43 200 mm heavy rocket launcher, together with the Type 42 122 mm vehicle-mounted rocket launcher, and the Type 43 122 mm tracked rocket launcher form the core mobile rocket unit.

Type 43 120-mm self-propelled mortar, Type 43 130-mm cannon, Type 43 122-mm plus howitzer new support artillery units.

These two campaign-level support firepower is exactly where the strength of the Iron Triangle Army against the Kwantung Army lies.

Li Yunlong's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Haha, Lao Kong, be generous! Your arrangement is too much with our Lao Li's appetite, I don't have to say it, just fight like this!

It just so happened that during this time, I heard a lot of rumors, saying that our Iron Triangle Army is expensive, and we are not allowed to participate in any battles, but the best equipment and resources have been tilted towards us.

There are even those who question our combat effectiveness.

Damn, this time I have to let the troops take a good look, what is called the absolute trump card of our Eighth Route Army, absolutely elite!"

Kong Jie immediately became vigilant, and specially instructed: "Lao Zhao, you have to keep an eye on Lao Li, now is not the time when he was the commander of the regiment, with only one regiment and a submachine gun, he could charge into battle with the soldiers.

The commander has to stay in the post of the commander, and he can't let Lao Li toss around blindly."

"Lao Kong, don't worry, I'll look at him!" Zhao Gang replied.

Li Yunlong: "......"

- Yes, I really wanted to be addicted to driving a tank into battle, but now there is no hope.

In fact, with Li Yunlong's urine, he really dared to do this.

After all, when he was the division commander later, he could lead the commando team to engage in special operations, go straight to Chu Yunfei's headquarters, and engage in a surprise attack by a small force, what else did he Li Yunlong dare not do?

Such a guy seems to be a battle maniac in his bones.

Kong Jie didn't want to go to the hospital to see him Lao Li again.

Moreover, if it is really suitable for conducting special operations,

Decapitation operation, then there is also Duan Peng and his entourage commando!

At present, it has not completely broken through the outer line of defense of the Japanese army and broken into the Japanese camp, which is not suitable for the infiltration and development of the assault force.

The external confrontation between the two sides competed whether the fortifications were strong or not, the level of equipment of the two sides, and the strength of the firepower configuration.

It's going to be a tough battle with no bells and whistles.

It was the first time for Chu Yunfei, who officially participated in the Iron Triangle Army's war against Japan, although he didn't say much at the meeting, he was amazed in his heart.

With Kong Jie's order, the troops' hole card equipment was frequently released.

Only then did Chu Yunfei realize that in the past few years, all parties thought that the Eighth Route Army had developed rapidly, and its equipment level had been greatly improved, and all kinds of artillery, armored vehicles, and even aviation units were available.

But the world still underestimates the exaggeration of the real equipment level of the Eighth Route Army.

This time, the heavy rocket was unveiled.

Chu Yunfei simply shut up and said nothing.

Why?

In the face of such a sharp weapon of war and an absolute difference in firepower, all conspiracies and external factors are just decorations.

What's more, it is such a cohesive and combative force as the Eighth Route Army.

Chu Yunfei almost didn't have to think about it to know that once the elite armored forces of the Iron Triangle completely launched an offensive, there would be no suspense in the battle situation at all.
