Chapter 643 Stabbing in the Back (Ask for Subscription!) ）

Two days passed in a blink of an eye. However, in these two days, Liu Hua did not rejoice for too long because of the good news of defeating the Japanese army's Hun detachment. Immediately afterwards, a bigger problem began to plague Liu Hua's mind.

The three main divisions that were engaged in a confrontation with their two main divisions did not make any movement as the advance detachment retreated. is still stationed steadily by his side, and the Japanese army spends a lot of military supplies in vain, and has no meaning military confrontation with itself. There is only one ultimate reason, that is, behind this posture, there is a bigger conspiracy against oneself.

However, two days passed, and although he frowned and thought hard about the military map in front of him for two days, he still didn't come up with any results.

Early in the morning, after a simple breakfast in a hurry, Liu Hua once again came to the quiet headquarters and began to think about his day. However, less than ten minutes after Liu Hua sat down, the figure of Commander Zhou Baozhong appeared at the entrance of the headquarters. Immediately after, an impatient and familiar voice reached Liu Hua's ears.

"Commander, how long will this be... Two days had passed, and the Xiǎo devils, who were ten kilometers away, had not made any movement except for sending a large number of reconnaissance troops around us. How long will such a meaningless confrontation last, you say, are these xiǎo devils crazy..."

Zhou Baozhong's impatient words make people sound, + although it is very unpleasant. However, listening to Liu Hua's ears is like a key to open the heart, and all the problems that plague Liu Hua's mind will be solved in an instant. Immediately, Liu Hua, who completely walked out of the countless questions, replied to Zhou Baozhong in front of him.

"It's been two days, and we can't afford to be so passive anymore. In any case, we must grasp the initiative of the entire battle, otherwise, in front of the xiǎo devils who have a large number of advantages, we will only be passively beaten. Who knows, at this moment, what bigger conspiracy is brewing for the xiǎo devils? And when the time comes, we will be greeted by a storm that will be even greater than the previous two days. ”

Hearing Liu Hua's answer in front of him, Zhou Baozhong's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked with a light in his eyes: "Commander, do you have any ideas?" ”

"I don't have the idea yet. However, we must not be so passive anymore, and we must find a way to break this deadlock. Liu Hua shook his head first. Then, with an affirmative look on his face, he ordered.

Seeing Zhou Baozhong in front of him, his words fell. Just after Lu came out of the leaping Yu try the god sè, it disappeared immediately, and Lu came out with a trace of frustration after the god sè. Liu Hua continued to speak.

"Comrade Zhou Baozhong, now I order all the troops hidden around the four main divisions of the Japanese army to attack immediately and destroy all the reconnaissance units sent by the Japanese army. Of course, the two main divisions around us also began to take action to eliminate the eyes and ears of all the xiǎo devils around us. In a word, before it gets dark today, I'm going to make the xiǎo devil who is directly opposite us a blind man, a deaf man..."

"Yes, Commander. You can rest assured, in the past few days, the soldiers have been suffocated, and they promise to clear all the eyes of the devils around them..."Hearing the combat mission, Zhou Baozhong's face immediately turned clear, and he replied with a smile.

"Also, immediately send a telegram to Deputy Commander Yang, ordering the base area intelligence office to take action immediately, and understand the movements of all the Japanese puppet troops around the base area. If there is any situation, report it immediately. I always feel that behind this kind of military confrontation, there is a huge conspiracy against us, so we have to guard against it. Liu Hua continued to order.

Three divisions around the three main divisions of the Japanese army, plus two main divisions around Liu Hua. A total of more than 20,000 commanders and fighters of five divisions entered a combat state at the same time.

In the face of the frenzied encirclement and suppression of more than 20,000 commanders and fighters, the various spies and reconnaissance units sent by the Japanese army can be said to have not escaped the net, and all of them have become ghosts under the guns of the soldiers.

After losing nearly 1,000 scouts, the three main divisions of the Japanese army finally got honest. It only constantly dispatched a large number of reconnaissance planes to carry out uninterrupted patrols and reconnaissance of the main forces of the Eighth Route Army in all directions, so as to prevent the main forces of the Eighth Route Army from withdrawing from the battlefield under their noses. ,

In the headquarters of the Sifang Camel, just when everyone was immersed in the joy of annihilating nearly a thousand Japanese scouts in one day, making the xiǎo devils completely quiet. A rush of footsteps interrupted everyone's joy. Immediately after, an anxious voice reached the ears of several people.

"Report to the chiefs, the director of the base intelligence department Qian urgently telegraphed..."

After receiving the telegram in the hands of the communications staff officer, Zhou Baozhong quickly skimmed through it, and the brow that had just been stretched out immediately wrinkled into a deep 'Sichuan' character. Then, he said to Liu Hua beside him.

"Commander, behind the military confrontation with our army, the Xiǎo devil is indeed hiding a huge conspiracy. According to the reconnaissance of the intelligence department, the Japanese troops in the direction of Shanhaiguan once again gathered and transferred the strength of two divisions and regiments, and are rapidly attacking and advancing towards our base area. In addition, in the northwest area of Méng Mountain, a large number of Japanese garrisons and puppet Manchurian army troops are massing....If nothing else, these troops must also be coming towards our base area. ”

After listening to the contents of the telegram, Commander Liu Hua couldn't help but exclaim.

"Xiǎo devils really look up to us, they have just sent five main divisions and hundreds of thousands of troops. This was followed by at least three more divisions. The whole 150,000 troops, it seems, is another more violent storm, about to rush towards our base area..."

Subsequently, before everyone could react from the shock, Liu Hua asked Zhou Baozhong in front of him: "Old Zhou, in the area of Shanhaiguan, there are only 12 main divisions in the general attack. Before the war, a whole seven main divisions had been chou. Now, once again, two main divisions have been chou. At this moment, there are still more than 60,000 troops left in the three main divisions. Sixty thousand xiǎo devils, in the face of the fierce attack of hundreds of thousands of troops of our field army, can they stop it? Isn't Commander Xiǎo Devil crazy, isn't he worried that we will break through their Shanhaiguan defense line? ”

Regarding Liu Hua's question, Zhou Baozhong shook his head, pointed to the military map in front of him and said: "Commander, I don't say that you know the terrain around the Three Customs. It can be said that it is a one-man affair, and ten thousand people are not open. Although the main force of our field army has hundreds of thousands of Jing Rui troops. However, in front of Shanhaiguan, if he carried out a strong attack, he would not be able to exert his strong force at all. Therefore, sixty thousand xiǎo devils, stick to a Shanhaiguan, in a short period of time, there is absolutely no problem...."

"It seems that the xiǎo devils underestimated our combat effectiveness. In the same way, we underestimate their combat effectiveness. Originally, I thought that the main force of the field army would quickly break through the Japanese Shanhaiguan defense line and exit the customs. Cooperate with us to give the Japanese army a front and rear flank attack, and completely annihilate the remaining four divisions. Now it seems that this wish will not be realized for the time being. The communications staff officer immediately sent a telegram to the commander of the special operations division, Liu Xiǎo Gang. ”

"Order the special operations division, send a strong force, and set off immediately, responsible for slowing down the march of the Japanese reinforcements."

Looking at the communication staff officer who was leaving quickly, Liu Hua ordered Zhou Baozhong in front of him: "Old Zhou, immediately send a telegram to Deputy Commander Yang." Let the high-power radio station of the communications office in the base area immediately contact Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan, who is fighting in the Shanhaiguan area, to inquire about the specific progress of the troops and the current battle situation.

"Yes, Commander..."

Shanhaiguan, which has the title of the first Xiongguan in heaven and earth, embodies the blood of countless toiling people. At this moment, it is undergoing the baptism of countless shells. With the explosion of cannonballs, the strong city walls, under the baptism of countless cannonballs, slowly collapsed, and finally became a ruin.

And just when the heavy artillery division of the Kannai Field Army concentrated artillery fire and shelled this section of the ancient city wall. In Shanhaiguan, the artillery units belonging to the three main divisions of the Japanese army were not far behind and launched a counterattack. On both sides of the enemy, hundreds of artillery pieces of various calibers, on the small Shanhaiguan battlefield, you come and go, and you are happy to fight.

All the commanders and fighters of the heavy artillery division, braving the fierce artillery fire of the Japanese army, continued to pour one shell after another into the ancient city wall that had already caused the infantry to pay huge casualties. The infantry soldiers, who had been fighting hard for a week, were not far behind, and under the cover of a large number of light and heavy machine guns behind them, they braved the dense firepower network of the Japanese army on the city wall, and launched one attack after another, hoping to break through the Shanhaiguan defense line in front of them as soon as possible.

In a regimental-scale attack, under the frantic counterattack of the Japanese army, under the city wall, after dropping the remains of nearly 100 soldiers, he once again retreated to the position. In the face of heavy casualties among the troops, Li Qing, chief of staff of the field army, decisively issued an order to stop the offensive. Then, he quickly rushed into the headquarters and said to Luo Ronghuan, the political commissar in front of him, who was staring at the map and was motionless. ,

"Commissar, you can't fight like this anymore. For each attack, we had to pay at least one company casualties. A week has passed, and the entire field army, five field columns, have taken turns to fight, leaving the remains of more than two thousand soldiers in front of the Xiǎo devil position. As for the seriously wounded during the attack, the number also reached a staggering two thousand. If we continue to fight like this, we will almost run out of a main division..."

In the face of huge casualties among the troops. Luo Ronghuan, the political commissar who is a father and a mother in the field army, is also very unbearable and sad in his heart. However, I thought of the tense military situation outside the customs and the safety of Commander Liu Hua. Luo Ronghuan's face was helpless.

After a long sigh, Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan replied: "Lao Li, I know the situation. However, the fighting outside the gate has been going on for a week, and so far, we are in the dark. You must know that the combatable soldiers around the commander are only 40,000 at full capacity. The Japanese Kwantung Army, on the other hand, was a full five divisions and hundreds of thousands of troops. The disparity between the enemy and our forces is so great, I am really worried about the safety of the commander..."

As soon as the conversation changed, Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan continued: "So, Lao Li, although our casualties are very large. But I can assure you that in the face of the powerful offensive of our army, the casualties of the Japanese army will definitely not be less than ours. Tell the commanders and fighters at all levels below to let everyone hold on, how many troops have finished fighting, and after they have left the customs, I will give you as much as you can add. In a word, we must do our best to break through the Shanhaiguan defense line and join the commander in the shortest possible time..."

"Yes, political commissar...," Li Qing replied with a look of relief.

However, as soon as his words fell, the figure of the communications staff officer of the field army headquarters appeared in front of the two of them. Seeing that Luo Ronghuan and Li Qing were all gathered in the command headquarters, the communications staff officer said breathlessly.

"The political commissar, the chief of staff, and the deputy commander Yang of the Méng Mountain Base Area outside the Guanwai forwarded the telegram of the commander. Ask us about the current progress of the main forces of our field army and the latest battle situation, and ask us to call back immediately...."

"Political commissar, it's the commander..."Hearing the content of the telegram, Li Qing's face immediately showed a moving spirit. said to Luo Ronghuan, the political commissar in front of him.

"Yes, a week has passed, and the voice of the commander is finally heard. Since the commander asked us about the current situation of the war, it means that the current commander is not in any danger. Lao Li, the order just now, don't convey it downwards when you take the time. However, there could be no cessation of the current attack on the Japanese army, and various columns were ordered to attack in turn. However, in the process of attacking, it is necessary to control the casualties of the troops..."Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan, after learning the news that the commander is safe and sound at this moment. couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief and said to Li Qing beside him.

"Yes, political commissar, I'm going to give an order..."Li Qing replied decisively.

Looking at the fast-leaving chief of staff Li Qing, Luo Ronghuan's face also showed a long-lost smile. Immediately, he replied to the communications staff officer in front of him.

"Call back to the commander immediately, because the terrain is unfavorable for our army, the troops will not be able to use it on the battlefield at all. In one week, the main force of our field army has already paid the price of more than 4,000 casualties. However, no substantial progress has been made. At present, our field army is concentrating its forces and continuing to attack the enemy at Shanhaiguan....Please commander... Send the telegram out at once...."

Looking at the communication staff officer who was leaving quickly, political commissar Luo Ronghua couldn't help but muttered to himself: "I hope the commander can come up with a good tactic, so that the main force of the field army can quickly pass through the Shanhaiguan defense line with the most casualties..."

However, Luo Ronghuan, as a political commissar, also knew that in the face of the heavy defense of the Japanese army, coupled with the favorable terrain around Shanhaiguan. It is almost impossible to break through the Shanhaiguan defense line in front of you in a short period of time with the most casualties. Thinking of this, for what he said just now, Luo Ronghuan shook his head with a wry smile and helplessness. Then, he walked to the huge military map and continued to think about possible countermeasures for the current war situation.

Luo Ronghuan, the political commissar of the field army, replied to the original text and forwarded it to the temporary headquarters of the Sifang Camel at the first time. After reading the battle report in front of me, especially after seeing the main force of the field army, which was extremely strong in combat effectiveness, it paid the price of more than 4,000 casualties in less than a week. Liu Hua, the founder of this army, couldn't help but clench his fists, and secretly vowed in his heart that he would make the Japanese Kwantung Army pay for its blood debts. ,

"Lao Zhou, what do you think about this problem. You are more familiar with the situation in this area of Shanhaiguan than me, do you have any good suggestions? You must know that every minute of delay now, the main force of our field army will have countless soldiers sacrificed on the battlefield..."After a short period of anger, Liu Hua immediately put away his anger, and after sorting out the thoughts in his mind, Liu Hua asked Zhou Baozhong beside him.

However, what disappointed him was that Zhou Baozhong, who had read the content of the telegram, just shook his head very helplessly, and then said: "Commander, if such a large-scale force wants to get out of the customs, it can only go through the Shanhaiguan. If you attack from the front, there is only one way, and that is to attack. The Japanese army garrisoned 60,000 troops of three divisions at Shanhaiguan, and if they could not completely defeat their deployment, the troops would not be able to pass through the Shanhaiguan Pass..."

"However, attacking from the front is time-consuming and requires a lot of sacrifice. I don't want to see this, Lao Zhou, think about it carefully, is there any shortcut. For example, sneak attack, night attack..."Liu Hua shook his head and asked Zhou Baozhong in front of him with an expectant expression.

"Commander, there's a shortcut. However, this shortcut, for us at present, can be said to be powerless..."After a short thought, Zhou Baozhong's eyes lit up and he spoke.

"Huh? Let's hear it..."For a while, Liu Hua's eyes immediately showed a hint of sharpness, and he hurriedly asked.

"Yes, the situation is like this, although Shanhaiguan is the first Xiongguan in the world. However, the direction of its defense, because the Kwantung Army operated for a long time, was only directed towards the Kannai. In the long run, there is no defense outside the gate. Therefore, if we can send a surprise soldier to stab the Japanese in the back, they will be stabbed fiercely. I can guarantee that the defenders of Shanhaiguan will definitely not be able to stop our front and rear attacks..."Zhou Baozhong replied with an affirmative face.
