Chapter 1162: The bite opened
The Japanese army seems to support Tonghua at any cost, although Tonghua is very important, but it is not so important that the Japanese army must keep Tonghua at any cost.
First a division, then a division, and so far two more divisions have been supported, and it seems that the Japanese army will use all its forces in the northeast to keep Tonghua.
"Send a telegram to Commander-in-Chief Hu informing them of the situation we are encountering now and asking if they have given up the attack on the Japanese army!"
The more Cunqi thought about it, the more wrong it became, if the Japanese army sent more troops, their pressure would be very great, and it was likely that they would have to give up the offensive and turn the entire defense line into a defensive state.
He began to guess what had stimulated the Japanese army, or what had happened in the entire front-line troops, which led to the judgment of the Japanese army, so that the Japanese army did not listen to the deployment of troops to support Tonghua.
"Commander, our two armies have entered the flank of Tonghua and turned into a defensive state, the Japanese army is menacing, and the commander of the front line called to ask us if we are attacking Tonghua now?"
The situation on the battlefield is over in an instant, the little devils did not follow their plan, and they cannot proceed according to the old plan, otherwise they will suffer.
"Tell Lao Xu that the troops can feint and generalize, and we must ensure that the Japanese troops in the city will not suddenly go out of the city to support, and they will call me back if they dare to show their heads!"
The two divisions supported by the Japanese army were not far from them, and if they did not press the Japanese troops in Tonghua City, they were likely to be flanked by the two armies, and as long as one position was lost, it could be the collapse of the entire defensive line.
"Did the Japanese army turn Tonghua into a decoy? Deliberately let us take the bait? "The chief of staff analyzed.
Otherwise, why did the Japanese army put one and a half divisions in Tonghua, and use the strength of four divisions to support Tonghua!
"No, if the Japanese army really uses Tonghua as a bait, the Japanese army should not be this reaction speed, on the contrary, at this time, the Japanese army should be trying their best to cut off our contact with the rear, instead of frantically supporting Tonghua!"
After analyzing it, they did not find out the true intentions of the Japanese army, and it was obvious that the Japanese army was not prepared in advance, but rushed to support.
As for what the real intention is, Cunqi has too little information in their hands! This matter can only be investigated by Hu Guoshan and them.
After Hu Guoshan received the telegram from the Cunqi headquarters, he was also confused, they did not relax the attack of the Japanese army in the slightest, and put pressure on the Japanese army if they could, and there were more and more Japanese troops in front of them, and the two sides were like the relationship between magnets and iron.
"It seems that the Japanese army has not done its best to resist us, we can no longer only concentrate our forces on the front, the distribution of forces on the frontal battlefield has reached a saturated state, unless one unit is disabled, we can have room for another force to intervene!"
The entire battlefield on the front line has been unable to meddle, at most it is to change the guard, let one unit replace one unit! If the troops are forced, it will only increase the density and increase the casualty rate.
"Commander-in-chief, if the Japanese still have enough troops, wouldn't it be very dangerous for them to be commanders?"
"Cunqi they shouldn't be in much danger for the time being, if there is really danger, the Japanese army's reinforcements won't be as simple as two divisions!"
Hu Guoshan said that the Japanese army really wanted to eat them, so they would not only arrange for the troops of two divisions to go to Tonghua.
"But Tonghua is very important to us, after the Japanese army sends more troops, I am afraid that it will be much more difficult for Commander Cun to take Tonghua!"
"Hmm...... The Japanese army has increased its troops, and we can't let Cunqi support it alone! Let Li transfer the strength of the two armies for the people to support the battle against Tonghua! ”
"How should Commander Cun reply?"
"Tell Cunqi to stabilize the defense line first, and then try to attack the city! As for the intentions of the Japanese army, it is impossible to guess for the time being, once the situation occurs, I will inform them as soon as possible! ”
If the intentions of the Japanese army are not clear, they are likely to be led by the nose by the Japanese army, and what they are most afraid of on the battlefield is to lose the initiative.
As the commander-in-chief, Hu Guoshan must stabilize the various situations on the front line, not only the frontal troops that are fighting with the Japanese army, but also the inch qi them, as well as Du Yuming's airborne troops.
He is the big steward of this army, just like Liao Fan said in Taihang Mountain before, as there are more and more troops, as the commander-in-chief, he is less and less like a commander, but more and more like a nanny, and he must ensure that the troops eat, drink, and sleep.
The current Hu Guoshan also deeply understands that he must take into account every unit, on the one hand, if there is a mistake, it may be exchanged for a complete loss.
Although they have the support of the whole country and can make a comeback, the brutal war will not let those innocent lives live again!
"We must shift the strategic point of attack and no longer focus on the battle ahead!"
After Hu Guoshan arranged everything, he looked at the map, they couldn't push it all the way like this, the northeast was very vast, so vast that the five million army in the decisive battle was like a fallen leaf in the autumn wind.
Although they won a lot of battles and recovered a lot of lost territory during this time, they had a big problem, that is, the battlefield that should have been very active did not allow the Japanese army to fight the contrary, there were not many troops that could be mobilized in Hu Guoshan's hands.
"Concentrate the remaining forces and conquer Tonghua first! Let's take Tonghua and talk about it! ”
They had to take Tonghua before the Japanese reinforcements entered Tonghua.
"Command! All the attacking troops on the front line were transferred to a defensive state, and all armored units were transferred back to support Tonghua under the command of the commander of the inch! ”
Hu Guoshan urgently ordered that since he wanted to conquer Tonghua first, plus Li Weimin's two armies, it was enough in terms of infantry, and what they needed was to deal with the two divisions of the Japanese army in the field!
The armored forces that could ensure mass damage to the two divisions of the Japanese army were their armored troops, who made a surprise attack with armored forces and kicked open the door of the Japanese defense, and then the infantry quickly followed up and wiped out the strength of the two divisions of the Japanese army in the field.
At the same time, after the armored forces kicked open the defensive gates of the two divisions of the Japanese army in the field, the other troops had to attack Tonghua City as quickly as possible, and they had to conquer Tonghua before the next Japanese reinforcements arrived.
On the battlefield in the northeast, the most difficult battle began, the cannon fodder salvo on both sides, if this was not a battlefield, it is estimated that some people would admire the spectacular firepower.
However, this is a battlefield, and human life is like an ant, and a single piece with a small fingernail can take a living life.
There were constant screams and shouts of killing in the billowing smoke, and the fire of the machine gun tore a man to shreds! The battle continued, and the Chinese army did not have the slightest intention of stopping, charging like waves, wave after wave, until the enemy in front of them was crushed.
"Kill!"
A company commander was already seriously wounded, and when he was carried down on a stretcher, he still shouted to kill the thief.
"The siege has been frustrated, this is the fifth company commander carried down by the 72nd Regiment!"
"No matter how difficult it is, we have to eat Tonghua, the task of the main attack is handed over to us, we should take the lead, the company commander is gone, the battalion commander is gone, the battalion commander is gone, the regiment commander is gone, and I, the division commander, am on it personally!"
Soldiers have a breath, and they can't lose anything in this breath, and with this breath, they can charge more than once.
This division is destined to make a name for itself in the Northeast Theater, but it also means that there are many soldiers who have sacrificed their most precious lives for this war.
The Japanese army launched a simultaneous attack on the field and inside the city of Tonghua, and this time the Japanese army did not send reinforcements, but the battle in the field progressed faster than the progress of the siege.
The armored forces galloped, and no troops could stop their iron hooves, after all, there were thousands of tanks and armored vehicles, and the Japanese wanted to block them with their flesh and blood, and I am afraid that all that was left was a pile of minced meat.
The Japanese were under a full-scale attack near Tonghua, and the Japanese troops in other directions were given a respite.
"Tonghua can't be lost yet, at least not yet, continue to send troops to reinforce!"
The plan of the Japanese commander had not yet been achieved, he could not abandon Tonghua, and he wanted all the Chinese troops in the northeast to concentrate their forces in Tonghua, only in this way could their plans be ignored.
However, the Japanese commander forgot one thing, that is, there was a pair of eyes in the sky staring at them all the time, and these eyes were from Huang Changsheng's air force.
The Air Force was responsible for various tasks such as bombing, reconnaissance, and raids on the Northeast Battlefield, and although there were various tasks, Huang Changsheng never let their Air Force stop its reconnaissance operations against the main force of the Japanese army.
The commander-in-chief of the little devil has ignored the Chinese Air Force, or he has not yet gotten used to the fact that China has an Air Force, but it is precisely for this reason that all his plans are exposed to the eyes of the Chinese Air Force.
The Japanese army is still sending reinforcements to Tonghua, which was originally a small siege battle, but as the two sides invested more and more troops, it gradually developed into a fierce battle, and they didn't know who was attacking and who was defending.
The two sides don't seem to fight everyone anymore, and they don't look like they're going to give up!
However, the key to this battle is to attack the city, as long as Tonghua City is breached, all problems will be solved! If Tonghua City is in the hands of the Japanese army, the entire Tonghua is a huge magnet, constantly attracting the armies of both sides to come to Tonghua for a decisive battle.
The Japanese army was red-eyed, and the attacking Chinese army was even more red-eyed, and the fierce battle between the two sides lasted for three days, and one of the main attacking divisions successfully controlled the walls of Tonghua City and opened the first step into Tonghua City.
However, this division also lost more than half of it, and the regimental commander lost two of them, not to mention the officers, and when the battle got to this point, the soldiers and officers had already been released.
The Chinese soldiers finally bit open Tonghua City with their teeth, and their front teeth were also broken! However, they still have enough troops to attack Tonghua.
The battle in the field and in the city is inseparable, and tomorrow's battle is the most critical battle, and the battle in the city will determine which army will pay worthwhile and which team will gain nothing.
