"Smack"

Han Yunhua slapped on the table and scolded: "The little devil of the dog day really fucking thinks that Lao Tzu is afraid of him, okay, isn't your old thing in Gangcun going to fight a decisive battle, Lao Tzu will accompany you"

After scolding, Han Yunhua turned to Luo Ronghuan and said: "Lao Luo, the military region will be handed over to you, the plan of the large military region must be implemented, but the Pingjin area should no longer be handed over to the national government, that is our territory, we can let Shanxi, we can let it in southern Hebei, and we can also let it in central Hebei, but the Beijing-Tianjin region must not be let out now, Lao Luo, you will transfer the newly formed troops to Zhangjiakou, Chengde, Chifeng, and the first line during this time."

Luo Ronghuan also knew the importance of the Beijing-Tianjin area, but considering the negotiation agreement between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, Luo Ronghuan thought that Han Yunhua should still be reminded, so he said: "Yunhua, will this cause dissatisfaction on the part of the Nationalist Government?" After all, the central authorities have just signed an agreement with the Nationalist Government, and if we leave this place, it will easily cause friction between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. ”

Han Yunhua smiled and said: "Joke, even if I give him up now, will Chiang Kai-shek dare to ask for it, and if he asks for it, can those troops in Zhongtiao Mountain be able to hold it?" To be honest, I don't believe in the strength of the Central Army, you must know that Chiang Kai-shek put more than half of the country's elite on the southern front, not to mention the northern troops, and they are all some miscellaneous armies, even handsome talents like Wei Lihuang can only retreat to Zhongtiao Mountain, Lao Luo, do you think they can hold most of North China after leaving Zhongtiao Mountain? ”。

"What you said is also true, I am afraid that if we hand over the front hand, the back hand will be reoccupied by the Japanese, and then the common people in North China will inevitably be another killing and robbery, but we must not destroy the anti-Japanese national united front that has been formed with great difficulty."

"Lao Luo, I know what you are thinking, but I want to tell you that as long as our army continues to move south, Chiang Kai-shek will definitely not make trouble for us, he wishes that our army and the little devils will fight to the death, while they will sit firmly on the Diaoyutai as fishermen. Once we and the little devils have a winner, then the joint declaration that has just been signed will be taken out, and Chiang Kai-shek will play too much of this little trick. But this time I will definitely not let him succeed, since he doesn't want us to fight to the death with the little devil, and Okamura Ningji is not in a hurry to be ashamed, then how can we let these turtle sons down, Lao Luo, tomorrow I will continue to command the battle on the front line, and I will compete with Okamura Ningji in Shandong. But that's not our main battlefield, our main battlefield is still in the north, tell Shen Yuquan, just say it's what I said, toss hard, the entire Horqin grassland is our territory, the little devil and the second devil want to beg from my Han Yunhua's mouth He still lacks a good pair of teeth. In addition, he immediately sent a batch of weapons and ammunition to Shen Yuquan and asked him to organize his own troops to counterattack. The troops transferred the 1st Cavalry Division, the 2nd Cavalry Division, the 3rd Cavalry Division, the 4th Cavalry Division, the 5th Cavalry Division, the 13th Division, and Li Dingguo's headquarters to their military division, and transferred Chen Geng's Independent 77th Division, Bao Sen's 30th Division, and the newly formed 31st, 32nd, 33rd, 34th, 35th, 36th, 37th, and 38th Divisions to the north. But remember to let them not fight with the elite of the Kwantung Army, the main purpose of going to the grassland is two, one is to train troops, the other is to establish power, and occupying territory is secondary. ”

Luo Ronghuan also knew that Han Yunhua had long wanted to include the vast area from Tongliao to Chifeng and then to Shuangliao into the management scope of the military region, but because this area has always been a traditional area of the Mongolian nationality, although the Japanese have set up some strongholds here, they have very few garrisons, and the degree of freedom of farmers and herdsmen here is relatively higher than that of other regions. Moreover, the Mongolian people have a strong temperament, and they may use knives if they disagree, so the Japanese puppet army should be relatively relaxed in their management and dare not force them excessively. Therefore, the anti-Japanese enthusiasm of the people here is not too strong, coupled with the ethnic policy consistently implemented by the Communist Party, so they do not want too much friction between Han Yunhua's department and ethnic minorities, and they have always opposed Han Yunhua's department to go north and east. …,

"What about the central side?"

Han Yunhua's sword eyebrows stood up, and then said, "What to do, now that the little devil has put his bayonet against the neck of our army, what can we do, of course we will fight, of course we will not have a decisive battle with the Kwantung Army." ”

Luo Ronghuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, others don't know what's going on in Suidong, he doesn't know what's going on, the little devil was not ready to fight with the military region in Suidong, and they deliberately reduced the garrison, and the entire Horqin grassland added up to only one infantry wing and one cavalry wing, and there were less than 5,000 people when the battle was full. But our Commander Han is just going to tease the nerves of the little devils.

Since Han Yunhua transferred Shen Yuquan to Xilinhot, the reaction of the little devil has been a lot more intense, and he has continued to increase troops in the Horqin area, and now the cavalry troops of the Japanese puppet army stationed in the Horqin grassland have exceeded 40,000 people, and Shen Yuquan is not a fuel-efficient lamp, he just went to Xilinhot and soon transferred all the cavalry troops of Aolige from eastern Hebei, and also encouraged Aolige to recruit troops on the Xilin Gol grassland, and formed a large number of cavalry troops, which is obviously a needle to the wheat mang. Moreover, the two sides have already called for hands several times, although they are only battles at the battalion and company level, but both sides have already played a fire, and it is only a matter of time before the battle escalates.

Luo Ronghuan knew that he couldn't move Han Yunhua in terms of war, although he didn't know what Han Yunhua wanted to do, but he knew that Han Yunhua was not a reckless person, so he still decided to follow Han Yunhua's instructions. Besides, it was Master Chen Geng and Master Chen who commanded the recruit division this time, so Luo Ronghuan was more relieved. Even if Han Yunhua wants to blind Master Chen, he won't listen to him, and Shen Yuquan is also a talent with excellent political quality, so it is not a big deal to transfer the troops to the northern front, anyway, the troops also need to be trained.

On February 2, Han Yunhua rushed to the front line with his guard regiment and a teaching brigade composed of 800 newly graduated cadets.

On 4 February, Han Yunhua arrived in Beiping and convened an emergency military meeting in Beiping, which was attended by cadres at the level of division commanders and political commissars of various units in the Pingjin area.

Since the war had just ended, all units had not yet received new tasks, so the order to rest and recuperate on the spot was still in effect, and the troops of the Inner Mongolia Military Region stationed in the Beijing-Tianjin area at this time had 11 infantry divisions, and in addition to the reorganized 300th Division, there were also the 6th Field Division, the 7th Field Division, the 15th Division, the 16th Division, the 17th Division, the 21st Division, the 22nd Division, the 23rd Division, the 24th Division, and the 25th Division, with a total strength of more than 300,000 troops. Therefore, Han Yunhua decided to transfer part of the troops attacking Shandong from the Beijing-Tianjin area, and then part of the troops from southern Hebei.

After deliberation, it was decided that Xu Shiyou's 6th Field Division, 15th, 16th, and 17th Divisions were stationed in the Pingjin area, while Han Yunhua led the 7th Field Division, the 21st Division, the 22nd Division, the 23rd Division, the 24th Division, and the 25th Division of the 300th Division to the south of Shandong to reinforce the 1st Field Division. In addition, four infantry divisions were also transferred to Shandong from the 3rd Field Division, the 4th Field Division, the 9th Division, and the 10th Division, which had retreated to Shimen and the front line of Jingcheng Pass, so that Han Yunhua's troops transferred to Shandong had 11 divisions, plus the 1st Field Division, which was originally stationed in Shandong, with a total strength of more than 300,000 troops.

After more than half a month of mobilization, all units of the Inner Mongolia Military Region have completed their mobilization, and Han Yunhua ordered the commanders of all divisions on the front line to hold a pre-war meeting in Hengshui on 17 July.

After receiving Han Yunhua's order, the division commanders did not dare to slack off, and they all rushed to Hengshui as soon as possible, because all the remnants of the enemy in the entire Hebei region had been eliminated, so the actions of all troops had become bold and casual, unlike the previous rush to be as sneaky as a thief.

At 9 o'clock in the morning of the 17th, the auditorium of Hengshui City Hall.

Han Yunhua strode in, and when he saw Han Yunhua walking in, all the cadres present immediately got up, and the unified military salute and uniform dress made Han Yunhua feel like he had returned to the afterlife. …,

"You guys, please take a seat, aren't they? A lot of words," Han Yunhua asked very kindly.

Han Yunqian, who was in charge of the minutes of the meeting, got up and replied: "Report to the chief, inform the twelve division commanders who have all arrived at the meeting, please instruct"

"Very good, now the meeting is held" Han Yunhua paused for a moment and then said: "Comrades, the purpose of this meeting should also be clear, it is that the Japanese army really wants to compete with our army, so it forces our army to make a move, now let Commander Wang tell us about the current situation on the front line." ”

Wang Weizhou, commander of the 1st Field Division, got up and said: "Here's the thing, on January 26, a small unit of our army detected a small unit of the Japanese army acting strangely, so it followed it and found that the destination of this small Japanese army unit was a secret stronghold in Wucheng, Texas, and they seemed to be going to meet an important person. Although our small unit has been trained by the elites of the special combat team, although it is not a real special combat team, it is impeccable in terms of strategic vision, combat experience and combat effectiveness, although their numbers are far less than that of the Japanese army, but they still think that the small unit of the Japanese army has been completely annihilated at a small price, and they have also captured the important person of the great military rank. After interrogation, our soldiers found out that the so-called Dazuo was not a real soldier, but a person in charge of the Japanese Bacteriological Weapons Research Institute, and this time he went to Wucheng to prepare to find a suitable bacteriological weapons drop-off point on the Jilu border, because a large number of bacteriological weapons will soon be transported from Northeast China and Shanghai to Shandong, and will also be used in the next battle. Our soldiers knew that the matter was urgent, so they immediately took this Japanese prisoner back to the regiment headquarters to report the news, but unfortunately the Japanese army was not vegetarian, after receiving the disappearance of their biochemical experts, they actually sent a whole infantry division to look for it everywhere, and our army also sent troops to meet this small army, the two sides met in Luquantun, and fought a vicious battle, because our army was not fully prepared, both the strength and the terrain were at an absolute disadvantage, so our army suffered a little loss in this battle, and was eaten half of the regiment by the Japanese army, The 1st Brigade and 2nd Regiment took the initiative to ask for the queen of the palace in order to cover the retreat of the large army, but after the large army withdrew, they received news that they were surrounded by little devils on a hill south of Luquantun. ”

"What is the situation of the second regiment now, it's almost twenty days?" Han Yunhua continued to ask.

Wang Weizhou continued: "Fortunately, although the casualties of the troops have been more than half, there are less than 1,200 fighters with combat effectiveness, and the weapons and ammunition are almost exhausted, but the little devil obviously wants to use the second regiment as a bait to attract a large force of our army to rescue, and then to carry out the main decisive battle with our army, so although the second regiment has been surrounded for 19 days now, it can still support three to five days."

Yang Chengwu said: "Then what do they eat during this time, it is impossible for you to bring more than ten days of supplies for the first field division, right?" Quite a few words"

Wang Weizhou looked at Han Yunhua, and then hesitated for a while and said: "We only bring three days' supplies for each battle, and the ammunition is generally brought for a week, and each person also has to carry 150 rounds of ammunition as standard, but the second regiment has a cavalry company, and after the second regiment was surrounded, this cavalry company broke through, but the commander of the cavalry company found that half of the ammunition of the army was still in the hands of their cavalry company, so he rushed in while the Japanese encirclement had not yet closed. During this time, they only survived by slaughtering war horses, but now they have eaten up more than a hundred war horses, so if we can't rescue them as soon as possible, I'm afraid they won't last long. ”

It is a big crime to slaughter war horses in the army, no wonder Wang Weizhou was a little hesitant when he spoke again.

Han Yunhua knew what Wang Weizhou was worried about, so he said: "It's nothing to slaughter war horses, no one will blame them in that case, besides, when we crossed the grassland, our Red Army also slaughtered war horses, and if the war horses are gone, we can snatch them from the little devils, if our soldiers are gone, there will really be nothing, so don't take it to heart." Tomorrow I will ask Shangguan Qing to give the Second Regiment a supply ammunition airdrop, his aviation brigade has been training for two months, it's time to play a little role, don't worry, since Okamura Ningji wants to play around the point to send reinforcements, then we will give him a center flowering. ”…,

Then Han Yunhua said: "Okay, now report the situation of your troops, now the establishment of the troops has disrupted you, I don't know how many troops you have, let's just say it."

Wang Weizhou got up and said: "Our first field division now has 3 infantry brigades, each infantry brigade has 4 infantry regiments, 1 cavalry regiment, 1 engineer regiment, 1 machine gun regiment, 1 artillery regiment, 1 guard regiment, the standard quota of the whole brigade is 20,000 people, and the division headquarters directly governs 1 cavalry regiment, 1 engineer regiment, 1 machine gun regiment, 1 artillery regiment, 1 guard regiment, and the total strength of the division is 68,000 people. ”

Wang Weizhou's words shocked all the division commanders attending the meeting, and they all heard that the 300th Division was being reorganized and expanded rapidly, and that the number and strength of the troops were large, and they did not know that the original 1st Field Division, which was abandoned in southern Hebei, was so powerful, that the number of a division was greater than that of a group army.

Han Yunhua was also taken aback, when he left, there were only more than 40,000 tutors in Shandong, and it was expanded to 70,000 in less than 10 months.

As soon as Wang Weizhou's words fell, Yang Chengwu, commander of the 300th Division, got up and said: "Report to the commander, our 300th Division has four infantry brigades, each infantry brigade has 4 infantry regiments, each infantry regiment has 4 infantry battalions, each infantry battalion has 4 infantry companies, and each infantry brigade has a cavalry regiment, an engineer regiment, a fire support regiment, an artillery regiment, a supplementary regiment, a guard regiment, a logistics regiment, and a motorized infantry regiment, the total strength of the division is 85,643 people, and the division is equipped with 57,564 rifles of various kinds. 2,312 light and heavy machine guns, 8,769 pistols, 543 mortars, 154 mountain guns of 75mm or more, 154 field guns, 228 unconscionable guns, 432 automobiles, 213 motorcycles, and war horses"

If Wang Weizhou's words just now are amazing, then Yang Chengwu's words are really shocking, the 1st Field Division is 70,000 small, while the 300th Division is 90,000 smaller, the difference in numbers is only 10,000, but in terms of weapons and ammunition, it is far behind.

Some time ago, they took a large arsenal of the Japanese army and robbed a Japanese arms transport convoy, so the weapons and equipment of the troops have been replaced, and now all the troops are well-armed and complete. Originally, he planned to shock Han Yunhua, so he didn't report on the equipment of the troops just now, but after listening to Yang Chengwu's report, he realized that his 1st Field Division was far from the 300th Division.

Han Yunhua was also greatly shocked, and he had long heard that the 300th Division had built a new anti-aircraft artillery battalion and a combat defense artillery battalion of the anti-aircraft machine gun regiment.

Next, He Guangyu of the 7th Field Division, Cao Lihuai, commander of the newly formed 9th Division, Mo Wenhua, commander of the 10th Division, Su Yu, commander of the 11th Division, Yin Guochi, commander of the 12th Division, Wang Zhaoxiang, commander of the 21st Division, Fu Qiutao, commander of the 22nd Division, Yan Hongyan, commander of the 23rd Division, Tan Zhenlin, commander of the 24th Division, and Zhou Zikun, commander of the 25th Division, all made reports. In particular, Fu Qiutao, commander of the 22nd Division, and Yan Hongyan, commander of the 23rd Division, made a detailed summary of the battles in the previous period, because so far only these two divisions have deserted, and they are still deserters in formation, so their reports are relatively detailed.

Although the remaining divisions have also expanded a lot of troops, they are not as outrageous as the 1st Field Division and the 300th Integrated Division, and the maximum is more than 40,000 people in the 7th Field Division, and the rest are around 30,000. But even so, the total strength of the Shandong front reached a staggering 460,000 ......,
