Chapter 1259: The River Goes Down

General Secretary Zhu has ordered that all the intelligence work of the Northeast Military Region is already in charge, including the intelligence of the little devils on the Bangzi Peninsula, and Commander-in-Chief Zhu is responsible for it.

According to the plan agreed upon by Hu Guoshan, all the Japanese troops entrenched on the ground must be wiped out before they can enter the Bangzi Peninsula with confidence.

As for the hundreds of thousands of Japanese soldiers hiding in the underground fortifications, although personnel have been arranged to infiltrate them, no complete information has been transmitted so far, and General Secretary Zhu does not know whether these people have been exposed or have been killed by the Japanese army, but General Secretary Zhu still has very big expectations for them.

The Japanese troops on the ground in the northeast still maintained a large number of troops, but they were already grasshoppers after autumn, especially after this winter, most of the Japanese troops were demoralized.

However, Hu Guoshan and they still faced a very big problem, reducing casualties, although they would not land on the Japanese mainland, but they needed to maintain sufficient combat effectiveness to launch an attack on the Japanese army on the Bangzi Peninsula. In other words, Hu Guoshan regarded the Japanese army on the Bangzi Peninsula as a real enemy.

"With our current military strength, we can completely encircle these three cities together, and launch an attack at the same time, ensuring that we can eliminate all the little devils."

For a winter, the strength of the little devil was constantly declining, and Hu Guoshan's troops were replenished in addition to supplies, and the soldiers were also replenished, and all officers and soldiers were fully trained.

The entire Northeast Military Region, from Hu Guoshan to ordinary soldiers, can be said to be full of confidence in this battle, and they have made sufficient preparations for the last moment.

However, Hu Guoshan became more and more cautious, and he couldn't just think about victory in a war, which he learned from Liao Fan, only in this way could they see the shortcomings of their own side.

Especially the current battle is very important, although this battle is lost, it will not hurt the country, and if this battle cannot be fought for another year, the little devil still has no hope of victory.

However, the battle in the Northeast has affected the entire national policy, and at present, in cooperation with the people of the Magnesium Country, the people of the Magnesium Country will not have the patience to wait again and again, and when it comes to the appointed time, they will not care whether you Hu Guoshan has hit the Bangzi Peninsula or not.

On the contrary, at this time, the people of the magnesium country thought that the weaker Hu Guoshan's side was, the better, and even stopped at the current situation, which was more beneficial to the people of the magnesium country.

"Let the army commanders come to the headquarters for a meeting, and General Secretary Zhu will also ask you to tell them about the current confrontation between the Japanese army and us, as well as the current combat effectiveness of the Japanese army, but I need you to exaggerate the facts as much as possible, especially in terms of the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army!"

Hu Guoshan would rather lie to his subordinates than see his subordinates arrogant and arrogant at this time, so that even if they win the battle on the battlefield, it will only cause them to be more arrogant.

Then there will be a time when you will not die in war, but in peace.

"Is that good?" Mr. Zhu* Ling did not understand Hu Guoshan's true thoughts.

"If you want to protect them, this is the only way, they won't care if I tell me or not, they only care about whether they can beat the little devil!"

Military men live for peace and for war, especially those who have achieved something on the battlefield, they can achieve higher only through war, so they all want to catch the last battle.

"Commander-in-Chief Hu's strategy for governing the army is really novel!"

"I'll just take this sentence as a compliment to me!"

Regardless of whether it is praise or loss, victory is won by unscrupulous means on the battlefield.

"I'm not very good at lying."

"Actually, it's not a lie, it's just an exaggeration, and I don't want my soldiers to die on the battlefield because of the arrogance of their commanders."

"Okay, this matter is on me, but there is a question that let's explain first, whether they believe me or not, I can't control it."

"With your prestige in the army, one sentence is more effective than ten words of nonsense."

"You, Commander-in-Chief Hu, don't be presumptuous."

Hu Guoshan is a real general who fought under Liao Fan, and he has never lost a battle since Taihang Mountain led the troops, if such a person has no prestige in the army, a fool will not believe it.

"Lao Zhao, let the communications corps send a telegram to all combat units, and ask them to come to our headquarters on time at nine o'clock tomorrow morning for a meeting."

Now the time is very ripe, and it is a good time to purge the Japanese army in the country.

"Do you want to give Brother Fan a pre-war briefing?"

"There's no need to report it, if this battle is not good, I will go and ask Brother Fan for guilt."

They must win this battle, not only because of the duty of the soldiers, but also because they have assumed the expectations of the people of the whole country, and the final decisive battle is a decisive battle that the people of the whole country are looking forward to.

They may not have a good fight, but this battle must be won.

After the task was issued, Hu Guoshan wanted to give Liao Fan a call and communicate with Liao Fan. In Hu Guoshan's heart, Liao Fan is his truest reliance, and the war gave Hu Guoshan his trust in Liao Fan.

But after picking up the phone, Hu Guoshan still put it down, Liao Fan once said to them, the old officers who came out of Taihang Mountain, that they will all lead the troops independently in the future, don't hesitate to do things on one side, there will be a million troops in their hands, what else is there to be afraid of?

It is impossible for Liao Fan to give Hu Guoshan some guidance all the time, and the purpose of cultivating a general is to let him lead the troops into battle, not to let him report the news to his superiors all the time.

Now that everything is ready in the northeast, and the operational meeting will be held immediately, once the plan is agreed, the combat units will immediately enter a state of mobilization and march to their destinations.

The weather in the northeast is still cold, and the soldiers are patrolling in thick uniforms and against the cold wind.

Although the Japanese army was declining, they did not give up harassing the Chinese army, and at the front line of the confrontation between the two armies, the Japanese army maintained a state of patrol despite the difficult situation, and occasionally their troops crossed the confrontation area and sneaked into the area where the Chinese army was active to harass.

Of course, most of the harassment was not for any military purpose, but simply to loot a little food and warm clothing from the Chinese soldiers.

When the Japanese army was harassing the Chinese army, the Chinese army would certainly not be idle, the two armies came and went, but there was never a single communication, and when they met, the enemy was extremely red-eyed, and the white knife went in and the red knife came out.

The little devils have become a little crazier than before, the purpose of their lives is no longer for the common prosperity of Greater East Asia, they still have the emperor in their hearts, but the emperor can't eat, can't fill his stomach, and has been left behind by them. It's all about preparing for eating.

When everything is struggling for food, it also proves that this unit has no operational goals, the command is chaotic, the subordinates do not respect the superiors, and the superiors treat the subordinates as cannon fodder.

On the contrary, Hu Guoshan did not have any logistical pressure on his side, and everyone only had one common goal, which was to stare at the little devil.

So the comings and goings of the two sides are obviously very unfavorable to the Japanese army, and there is always a pair of eyes staring at the sneaky hands of the little devil.

The frequent sneak attacks of the Japanese army, the probability of success is very small, there are several times the Chinese army even took advantage of this shortcoming of the Japanese army, set up a lot of sets for the little devil, the little devil is also willing to drill in, after causing several losses in the eyes, the little devil thought about it carefully, and felt that life is more important.

Of course, the Japanese army belonged to rats, and they forgot about their hind paws when they put down their front paws. Maybe it's not just that you don't have a long memory, but that the long-term lack of food has to make the little devil take risks.

Even though they knew that the front might be a trap set for them by the Chinese army, the little devil still jumped in.

During the entire winter of the truce, Hu Guoshan's troops caught the little devils like rabbits, laid down the bait, set up the traps, and the little devils obediently took the bait, and then obediently took prisoners.

Before the end of winter, the number of captured Japanese troops was nearly 10,000.

These are all small things for Hu Guoshan, but they are just 10,000 more laborers for the rear. Hu Guoshan doesn't care about the 10,000 laborers, if hundreds of thousands of little devils line up to surrender, Hu Guoshan promises to cheer, but this kind of beautiful thing can only be thought about.

The little devils have been deceived again and again, they are like birds looking for food in winter. The morale of the Japanese army was unprecedentedly low, and they were constantly losing but could not replenish their personnel.

Moreover, there is also a key problem that the puppet army under their command is fleeing and surrendering in formation, and it is often a whole regiment or a whole battalion of puppet troops who leave their positions in the dark. Some are even more excessive, after the little devil wakes up in the night, he finds that there is only * left in the camp of the puppet army, and there is not even a single figure.

The Japanese army did not dare to send people to the camp of the puppet army to monitor, let alone use the puppet army to do things for them, because the little devils were also worried that they would fight back against the water in the battle, and it would be more dangerous to bite back when the time came.

The little devil let the puppet army leave like this, but the little devil can't run, the puppet army runs away, Hu Guoshan Kenneng will give them a way to live, and even give them freedom, but if these little devils run away, there will be only one result.

Although the boat was full of holes and leaks, the little devil couldn't get off the boat anymore. Moreover, there is no unified commander of the Japanese army in several cities, since the chief of the general staff of the Japanese army fled to the underground fortifications, although he still maintains contact with the Japanese army in the outside world, but he has been blinded by the information of the outside world and does not know anything.

There is no source of information, and the chief of the general staff of the Japanese army has repeatedly issued orders to attack the troops on the outside border, and the Japanese commander who is huddled in various places will not listen to him at this time, anyway, you are hiding in the underground fortifications and you don't know what our troops are doing outside.

It's not that the little devils don't want to fight back, but if they are pulled outside to fight a battle like they are now, they are sure that they will die more from exhaustion in a battle than they will die in battle.
