After chatting a few words, Han Yunhua got to the point, the actions of the Japanese army were really weird, and after reading the information sent by Han Yunhua, Political Commissar Luo and others also analyzed it for a while, but they couldn't figure out what the Japanese army was going to do. But as Han Yunhua said, no matter what the Japanese army wants to do, its target is the Chinese, so the military region must prepare for the worst.

"Yunhua, I look at it this way, let the rotational training troops all be built, they have been training for more than two months, I went to various units a few days ago to take a look, the results of the training are still very good, I think this batch can go to the battlefield. If they didn't have this kind of thing, it wouldn't be a problem to let them train for another month or two, but now that they have a mission, they should still be better off just in case, don't you think? Political Commissar Luo asked.

Han Yunhua knew that the training period of recruits should be at least three months or more, although the vast majority of the soldiers in the various units of the Inner Mongolia Military Region were not recruits, but Han Yunhua still wanted to use three months to carry out a more thorough rebuilding of these soldiers from various forces, and now it was not the time of last resort, so Han Yunhua thought about it and said: "Political commissar, I think it is better not to let the troops of rotation training gather, although the Japanese army may be coming at us this time, However, the training tasks of the various units have not yet been fully completed, and if the training is stopped now, it is very likely that the achievements made in the past will be wasted. Moreover, now that the Japanese operation has just begun, if our reaction is too great, it is likely that the attention of the Japanese army will be directed to our military district. ”

"Commander, even if we don't act, the Japanese army still regards us as a thorn in the side, and will never let our military region develop like this, I think that this time the Japanese army wantonly collected food from the people in the occupied areas completely against our military region, have you forgotten the wave of refugees played by the old devil of Shouichi Terauchi last year? I think Tadajun, the old devil, has this idea. Shen Yuquan said that he was very much in favor of stopping the training now, and all units should be rebuilt immediately in case of emergency.

Shen Yuquan didn't say that Han Yunhua really didn't expect this, last year the Yellow River embankment was blown up, and the flood from the mouth of the garden turned most of Henan and Jiangsu and Zhejiang into hell on earth, and millions of victims had to flee away from their homes. The cunning General Terauchi tried to use these millions of refugees to crush the newly established Inner Mongolia Military Region, and even tried to destroy the prestige of the Communist Party of the Eighth Route Army among the people.

Terauchi Shouyi's conspiracy was finally cracked by Han Yunhua, and also provided sufficient labor for the development of the entire Saibei, but at the same time, it also brought great trouble to the Inner Mongolia Military Region, first of all, the entire Inner Mongolia Military Region fell into a dangerous situation of lack of food, and at the same time, the arrival of a large number of refugees made the security in the Inner Mongolia Military Region defense area extremely bad all of a sudden, and the contradictions between the refugees and the indigenous people also emerged one after another.

If all the peasants who had no food to eat in the entire North China region poured into the Inner Mongolia Military Region, even if the logistics department of the military region had already stored all the military rations that had been stored for three or four years were taken out, it would not be enough for the peasants to eat.

However, Han Yunhua believed that it was impossible for the Japanese army to make such a depraved or even somewhat stupid scheme, which was not to say how righteous the Japanese army was, but to say that the top level of the Japanese army could not be so short-sighted; North China was the connecting channel between Central China and Northeast China, and it was also the center of Japanese rule in China, and if all the Chinese in the entire North China region were driven out, then the Japanese army must move enough Japanese from the country to North China to fill the vacancy, otherwise their future food and military salaries would not be settled. …,

Combined with the losses of the Japanese army in the Battle of North China some time ago, Han Yunhua suddenly found that the Japanese army seemed to be really short of food and money now, if they held the current defense line, the Japanese army's family would not starve, but if they wanted to hit the Chinese army again, then the Japanese army's only remaining family foundation was really not enough to toss, and suddenly Han Yunhua had a feeling of pushing aside the dark clouds and seeing the sun and the moon.

Han Yunhua took a military map of North China that was spread on the desk of Political Commissar Luo and looked at it carefully, and then said to Political Commissar Luo: "What Lao Shen said just now is not unreasonable, but I think that the Japanese army can no longer drive millions of refugees to Saibei like last year, first of all, the Japanese army can't afford to lose this person, the Japanese are a very strange people, stubborn and cute, and they must definitely find face on the frontal battlefield for military failures on the frontal battlefield. Even if they take advantage of the flow of refugees to crush our military region, they will be scolded by their countrymen. Second, even if they drive millions of refugees to our military region, with the current strength of our military region, we can easily deal with it, anyway, there is a shortage of people everywhere in northern Cyprus, large pieces of land are not cultivated, and many factories cannot recruit people, if there are 1.8 million refugees, these problems can be solved, and I can also implement some plans that I have not had the opportunity to implement before as quickly as possible. Therefore, I think that the intention of the Japanese army to levy grain this time is definitely not to bring disaster to the north, and just now I thought of another possibility. ”

"What is possible, what you just analyzed is very reasonable, if there are a few million more people in the military region at this time, then the entire Saibei will really enter a period of rapid development." Zuo Quan hurriedly asked, Chief of Staff Zuo still recognized Han Yunhua's analytical ability, and Han Yunhua's successive almost risky military operations completely conquered the former deputy chief of general staff of the Eighth Route Army.

"When I think about it, there is only one possibility for the Japanese army to collect food and wages from the peasants so ignorantly, that is, the Japanese army may be accumulating strength and preparing to carry out a major counterattack, and it is more than enough to protect itself with the current strength of the Japanese army, but the counterattack is far from enough, and it is even more impossible to completely solve the resistance of our military region or even the entire North China. So this time, the Japanese army is likely to target only one target, and then concentrate on striking with all their might. I think that Saibei and even the entire North China region can make the Japanese army hate it to the bone and want to get rid of it, and then only our military region will be able to do so. Some time ago, the Japanese army was defeated by the blows of our military region, and suffered heavy losses in terms of troops, weapons, ammunition, and even food and medicine, and the Japanese army had no other way but to transfer troops from the mainland and several colonies in Korea and Taiwan, while the Japanese army could transfer weapons and equipment from the northeast region or from the Japanese mainland. However, grain alone must be collected locally from the occupied areas, and the situation of Japan's domestic grain production this year is not optimistic, and the Japanese archipelago, which is large and densely populated, is simply unable to feed nearly 100 million Japanese people. Therefore, at this time, the food required by the entire Chinese army was collected by the DPRK and Taiwan, and all the rest was collected by the troops on the spot. Although according to the intelligence collected by Qian Zhuangfei's intelligence department, the Japanese army still has some military rations in Shimen and Baoding, but the quantity is less than one-third of the amount stored in Tianjin, and it is simply unable to meet the needs of so many Japanese troops. Han Yunhua looked up at Political Commissar Luo and the others, and saw that they were all staring at him with serious faces, and his fingers were sweeping around on the military map, knowing that these senior cadres were listening carefully, so Han Yunhua continued: "According to the estimate of the amount of grain we have captured from the Japanese army, if there is no combat mission, the Japanese army's military rations are barely enough for 300,000 people to eat for about four months, which can barely support the summer harvest next year." If there is a combat mission, according to the Japanese army's wartime food rations, the Japanese army's military rations can only last the Japanese army for more than two months, so the Japanese army's collection of military rations from the people in the occupied areas this time seems to be killing chickens and eggs, but in fact it is likely to be the prelude to the outbreak of the war. ”…,

Han Yunhua's words made Luo Ronghuan and the others fall into deep thought, they thought about it carefully, and found that what Han Yunhua said was very likely, after all, Luo Ronghuan had been the head of the military and government since the Long March, and he had a natural sense of acumen for battle. He stared at the map, and then said: "If you want to know whether the Japanese army really wants to fight with our army, we only need to look at the distribution of the Japanese army's strength at this time. If the Japanese reinforcements have arrived now and formed a combat effectiveness, then the Japanese army is coming at us this time, if their reinforcements have not arrived, then we don't need to worry too much, just rely on the remnants of the North China Front Army to defeat the generals and really have no way to take our military region, we don't want to trouble them, they should burn high incense, and they don't dare to provoke us at all, Lao Shen, you go and check if there are any reinforcements from the Japanese army during this time, mainly to check whether there are any new troops from the Japanese mainland ashore. ”

"There is no need to check, half a month ago, the intelligence department sent a telegram, saying that on December 1, a convoy docked at the port of Tianjin, and this escort fleet was escorting more than a dozen troop carriers, and about 60,000 Japanese troops went ashore that day. I estimate that the Japanese army has at least five C-class divisions to reinforce this time, and there are even some technical units that we don't know, according to the intelligence fed back by our scouts, those Japanese troops who he doesn't know the number are likely to be the Japanese army's bacteriological units and special combat teams. Han Yunhua said that he had always attached great importance to the movements of the Japanese army, so when Political Commissar Luo asked, he said it casually.

"Then we can basically conclude that the Japanese army is preparing to have another main decisive battle with our military region this time, then we must plan early, and don't let the dog's day catch us off guard." Shen Yuquan said with some heart.

Political Commissar Luo also opened his mouth and asked: "Yunhua, if the Japanese army attacks our military region with all its strength this time, we have several chances of winning, I just came to the military region, and I don't know some things, especially for those soldiers who have just been turned from the puppet army and prisoners. ”

Han Yunhua thought for a while and said: "Although our army won the last war, its own casualties were not small, after a period of reorganization, our army now has a total of ten infantry divisions of nearly 280,000 people, and at the same time, during this time, more than 12,000 wounded have recovered their combat effectiveness, these wounded are all elites who have experienced a hundred battles and seen blood, so I am ready to reorganize these wounded into two guard regiments." In this way, the strength that our army can use is almost 300,000, and the Japanese army should be about 300,000 if it is reinforced by troops, and it will not exceed 350,000 when it is full, but the territory controlled by the Japanese army is much larger than ours, and the burden is much heavier than that of our military region. Therefore, if there is another decisive battle with our army, the chance of victory for the Japanese army is less than four layers. Of course, this is just to say that our military region is against the enemy's North China Front, and if the Japanese army orders the Kwantung Army to attack our military region together with the North China Front, then our chances of victory will be less than four layers, or even lower. ”

"The Kwantung Army is mainly used to monitor the Soviet Union and the puppet Manchurians, and it simply does not have the energy to go south to fight our army, so I think it is unlikely that the Kwantung Army and the North China Front will besiege our army." Zuo Quan analyzed.

"I don't think necessarily, the Japanese army at this time has been almost forced into a desperate situation by our army, and it is not bad that the Kwantung Army is mainly dealing with the Soviet Union, but if even we China can't solve it, how dare the Japanese army provoke the behemoth of the Soviet Union, hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Army are only used to deter the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance, which is a waste of resources and a knife to kill chickens. Therefore, the base camp of the Japanese army frequently ordered the Kwantung Army to send small-scale troops south to fight with the North China Front, from a wing at the beginning to a brigade after that, and then to a division now. However, no matter how many Japanese troops come, they are all chickens and dogs in front of our military region, and several successive blows have made the entire Kwantung Army very faceless, and even the main force of the second division and the division commander of the division have been wiped out by our army, so our military region is also very famous in the entire Kwantung Army, and people are eager to eat our flesh and skin us, so I think the possibility of the Kwantung Army going south is not small, so we must not take it lightly. Han Yunhua retorted. …,

Although it is true that the Kwantung Army did not enter the customs on a large scale in history, history has changed so much now, and the most important thing is that the Mongolian army formed by part of the Kwantung Army in history was not only to control the northern part of the country, but also to protect the flank positions of the Kwantung Army. And this is particularly important, according to the post-war Japanese military history records, at the end of 1935 the Japanese army occupied Zhangbei, from 1939 the Japanese army began to camp on the Yehuling line between Zhangbei County and Zhangjiakou, in order to cooperate with the Kwantung Army to defend the Soviet-Mongolian coalition army. According to the record in the "North China Public Security War", the Japanese army demanded that "the Mongolian army should mainly secure the important places in the Yinshan Mountains near Zhangbei to cover the flanks of the Kwantung Army, and began to build part of the field fortifications, which were strengthened year by year." In 1943, with the consent of the base camp, the Japanese dispatch army made the following arrangements in late November: Changing the Yinshan Mountains to the main line of resistance, making the best use of the terrain and planning a protracted battle. "By August 1945, when the Soviet army sent troops, the Japanese army built a permanent fortification of about 300 kilometers long with a point line combined with a ring, more than 200 light and dark pillboxes, and there were open trenches and dark ditches connected between the pillboxes, and a battle trench with a width of 5 meters and a depth of 4 meters was also built on the front of the north side of the position. The trench is equipped with barbed wire, and complex minefields are set up in front and behind the barbed wire. The Japanese army responsible for guarding this important line of defense was an independent mixed 2nd Brigade Group.

But now that the Mongolian Army has been established in history, it has been thrown into the garbage heap of history by Han Yunhua, and even the notorious commander of the Mongolian Army, Lian Zhaopan, has become a pile of loess and white bones outside Guisui City, so the Kwantung Army has completely lost the protection of the flank position, which is also the reason why the Kwantung Army has been attacking frequently recently.

"Political commissar, it is very important for us that the Kwantung Army does not fight in the south, and the improvement of our own strength is even more important, so I think we will try to gain time now, if there is more than a month, even if I am attacked by the Japanese army from the north and south, I am confident and sure to retreat in my whole body, so that the little devil will return in vain."

"Yunhua, it is not impossible to fight for a month, as long as the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army helps to hold back the Japanese army, and then we order the 1st Field Division in Shandong to cooperate with the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army to lead the battle, I believe that it will not be a problem to contain the North China Front for more than a month. Without the cooperation of the North China Front, I think the Kwantung Army would not have directly exchanged fire with our army, after all, the Soviet Union at this time also stationed many troops in the Far East. In the eyes of the Japanese, our Communist Party and the Soviet Union are one, and if we are not fully sure, the Japanese army will not use the Kwantung Army to destroy us at will. But after a month, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army will be able to deal with the Japanese army for a month at most, of course, this is only in the case of ensuring that the casualties are as small as possible, if you fight for the casualties of a division, it will be no problem to contain the Japanese army for half a year. When the North China Front frees up its hands, what will we do then? Luo Ronghuan was very worried that Han Yunhua would dare to argue with the Kwantung Army and the North China Front Army of the Japanese army with the strength of only one military region, but Han Yunhua's previous record was too brilliant, and every battle was so classic, so that he, a veteran who had been in battle for a long time, could not see Han Yunhua's reality clearly.

Han Yunhua knew that Luo Ronghuan was moved, after all, the North China Front had already been severely damaged once, if it happened again, the entire North China Front was likely to collapse, and then the war in the entire North China region might usher in a new climax, and it was even possible to directly expel the Japanese forces from North China. As soon as the war in North China ended, then the war in the entire northern part of China was basically over, and all that remained was to settle the puppet Manchu regime in the northeast. Without the flank support of the North China Front, and at the same time facing the threat of the Kwantung Army of the Soviet-Mongolian coalition army to North China, it is very small, so what Luo Ronghuan needs now is a ...... of confidence and commitment.
