706, the layout of Pingjin
In the composition of the Flying Dragon Expeditionary Force Headquarters announced by Bai Shujie, although there is a general political commissar and a political department, it does not mean that he wants to have a general political commissar now.
Because he didn't know what was going to happen next, or how the road would play out in the future. If you get a general political commissar now, especially a general political commissar like Zhao Yiman, who is ten thousand times harder than steel, once you appear by your side, Bai Shujie feels that it is very likely that many things will not be able to be done.
Going out of the country to fight a war and fighting a war inside are two completely different concepts.
First of all, you're surrounded by enemies. Whatever your purpose, if you send an army to someone else's land, you will face all but a few traitors.
Before you conquer them all, both the army and the common people will be your enemies at first. At this point, you must not have any illusions.
Since it is an enemy, there are not a few people who kill people. It doesn't matter if someone kills you or you kill someone else, you're going to kill someone anyway. This is the law of nature, so Bai Shujie has never had any illusions.
Secondly, when the baggage grain and grass are used up, when there is no help in the back, the large army naturally needs to collect grain and grass on the spot. Moreover, the grain and grass of nearly 100,000 people and tens of thousands of horses would require at least a million people in a town to be able to feed.
If others are still unwilling, it is estimated that you are in a strange country, and there is a chance that you will not be willing to give you food and grass. You see, that's a problem, isn't it? At this time, if the General Political Commissar is around, it will be hungry.
"Before the base area is established, there is no need for a general political commissar!"
Bai Shujie set a principle for himself in his heart, and then began to care about other things. It was the end of December 1936, and there were so many things to do.
First of all, Chen Jie's independent division of Tianhua Mountain, there are not a few things that have been looted in the past two years, and they need to be smuggled out from the frozen Yalu River by means of ants moving.
There was also a special combat team in Beimanna, which successively destroyed the long-haired outpost, and later got a lot of things back from Sunwu Town.
Meng Kaihua and Zhang Jingfu led more than 1,000 people of the "First Detachment of the Rehe Front", and it took half a year to divide them into nine batches and transfer all the materials to Tianhua Mountain.
Zhang Yushu and Chen Dazhu used Ma Yongfu's title of "Xiuyan Garrison Commander" to manage a multi-county county in a legitimate manner, and even if it was a fair deal, they also raised mountains of supplies. Not to mention that they robbed so many places in Yingkou and Dashiqiao.
Now Anton's territory is temporarily "safe and sound", so all the materials have arrived in Xinkailing, just wait for Chen Jie to arrange for people to be armed to smuggle and quietly transfer the materials out.
Secondly, Wei Chong's Rao'an Independent Division, Zhang Ershuang's Fangshan Independent Regiment, and Zhao Sanbao's Zhangfang Independent Regiment cannot be idle now.
"Order: Wei Chong's Rao'an Independent Division: From now on, no less than one company of troops will be sent to Fengtai, Tongcheng, Dagu, and Gegu respectively, and infiltrate them in batches. Then buy a local idle property to settle down, and then find a way to transfer weapons and ammunition into it. ”
"Among them, a company that infiltrated Fengtai must bring in the 48 tankmen who were sent to you. The main goal is to keep an eye on the chariot brigade of the little devils. It is reported that shortly thereafter, the number of tanks of the little devils will increase to 24. Wait for the order to seize the enemy's tanks at any time. This is the equipment of a battalion, and Lao Tzu has another use. ”
"A company that infiltrated Tongcheng was mainly keeping an eye on the movements of the first wing headquarters and the second wing of the infantry brigade of the Tianjin Zhutun Army. As soon as these two groups of enemies move, you will sow chaos behind the enemy's rear. Kill all those left behind and blow up all war supplies. ”
"The two companies that infiltrated Dagu and Gegu kept an eye on the Tangda Gun Bureau and the Dagu Shipyard. In particular, it is necessary to pay close attention to the situation of the Pegasus freighter, and remember the cargo hold where the Maxim heavy machine guns and Czech light machine guns carried to the ship are stored. ”
"Once a battle breaks out in Tianjin, these two companies must occupy the gun bureau and shipbuilding as soon as possible, and disassemble and transport all the equipment inside. To this end, your unit must deploy a sufficient number of receiving troops in these directions. ”
"The heavy artillery positions around the Dagu Fort should be further implemented, and they should be ready to secretly transport the heavy artillery into it at any time to strike at the sea troop carriers of the little devils, or to counterattack the warships close to the coast. Cover the transfer of equipment and weapons and ammunition inside the Guns Bureau, Shipyard, and Pegasus freighter. ”
"Finally, a reconnaissance company was dispatched to conduct tactical reconnaissance of Mazhuang Town, Niutuo Town, and Yongqing Town in the northeast of Xiongxian County, and all waterways, land routes, and tactical points were clearly mapped. At the same time, no less than one regiment of your troops is stationed in Xiongxian County, ready to respond at any time. ”
"Order: Zhang Er's Fangshan Independent Regiment immediately arranged for no less than one platoon of scouts to infiltrate the line outside the east gate of Wanping and demarcate the area that heavy artillery might need to bomb. Don't, this platoon can buy local idle real estate to hide and observe the little devil's every move. ”
"In addition, buy a property in Wangzuo Town, set up a secret headquarters, and prepare to direct the artillery to launch a strike against the little devils. All these actions must be carried out after clearing the surrounding enemy groups. ”
"Order: Zhao Sanbao's Zhangfang Independent Regiment will send at least one battalion of troops to complete the infiltration of Baoding in three months from now. Acquire real estate, dig tunnels, conceal troops and secretly transported weapons and equipment near all strategic points, and wait for orders to proceed. ”
This series of top-secret orders, Xiao Lamei ticked for more than two hours before they were issued.
Zhao Jinxi has been standing next to the combat map, and with Bai Shujie's words, she stretched out her hand to gesture on the map without squeaking, but the expression on her face became more and more solemn.
Bai Shujie knows very well in his heart that because of his appearance, the strength of the little devils on the front line of Pingjin has one more cavalry wing (which has been disabled) and a heavy artillery wing than the original, and the total strength has also changed from more than 5,000 people to more than 9,000 now.
If you can't play your role this time and kill more than 4,000 people with the forces of the little devils, it will be impossible to restore the original history, and it will even lead to the deterioration of the overall situation, and it will be out of control.
Of course, Zhao Jinxi didn't know the course of history, so he had great doubts: "Big brother, according to your deployment, the little devil will occupy Baoding in the blink of an eye, this is incredible, right?" ”
"Song Zheyuan's 29th Army has more than 100,000 people, which is not much worse than our Rehe Front Army. Even if the little devil uses a heap of people, without 20,000 casualties, he shouldn't be able to take down this 29th Army, right? ”
"Also, according to the information Yang Erya and the others have, there are only less than 10,000 little devils on the Pingjin frontline. Song Zheyuan couldn't hold his own defense line with ten times the number of troops, so what else did he need such an army for! ”
Bai Shujie could only drip blood in his heart, but he couldn't say it, so he said with a wry smile: "Don't you know? At the time of the 918 Incident, the Northeast Army also lost the entire three eastern provinces in less than a year with ten times the strength of the troops! ”
"Isn't it weird? Not long ago, the little devils occupied Fengtai, did they kill or die a single person? No! The little devil didn't let go of a single shot, and there was not a single bullet for Lang Fei, Song Zheyuan directly withdrew his own people, and then gave Fengtai to the little devil! ”
"Therefore, on the issue of launching a large-scale offensive against the little devils, you can't just look at the strength of the two sides, but you should analyze Song Zheyuan's psychological activities. Song Zheyuan's only thought was to hope that the little devil wouldn't push people too hard and not squeeze him out of Beiping. ”
Because after leaving Pingjin, Song Zheyuan's 29th Army went to a foothold, and in the end could only accept the dispatch of the southern government. Therefore, as long as he can survive, even if it is only for a day, he will not turn his face with the little devil. Therefore, you are counting on Song Zheyuan and the little devil to start an all-out war, that is a dream! ”
"I see!" Zhao Jinxi suddenly smiled slightly: "After doing it for a long time, you didn't want to help Song Zheyuan fight, but when the little devil made a move, you expanded the war infinitely in an instant, causing irreparable losses to the little devil." Then fish in troubled waters and make yourself a lot of extra money. ”
"My guess is that if the little devil suffers unbearable heavy casualties, he will definitely not accept mediation. You are going to cut off all the illusions of Song Zheyuan and be forced to launch a general decisive battle with the little devil. Avoid Song Zheyuan from running over to negotiate with the little devil again, and then give up another piece of land. ”
Bai Shujie applauded and smiled: "Those who know me are also sisters!" Answer correctly, Lao Tzu will give you a full score this time! ”
After the Lugou Bridge Incident in history, in fact, Song Zheyuan had a great opportunity to eradicate the Tianjin garrison army of the little devil in one fell swoop.
After the outbreak of the "77 Incident", the commander of the garrison army, Tashiro Wanichiro, and the commander of the infantry brigade, Kawabe Shozo, found that the 29th Army did not continue to retreat, but resisted on the spot in Wanping City, which was a big surprise.
After a day of fighting, the little devil found it difficult to occupy the Lugou Bridge for the time being, so he conducted "on-the-spot negotiations", on the one hand, he wanted to use the negotiations to pressure the Chinese side to comply, and on the other hand, he tried to gain time to deploy troops.
On July 9, 11, and 19, 1937, the agreements reached three times between the Japanese North China Garrison and the Jicha authorities were proved to be dead letters by the intermittent sound of artillery at the Lugou Bridge.
By July 25, 1937, more than 60,000 little devils had been assembled in Pingjin, and the operational deployment of the North China garrison army was basically completed. At this point, war was inevitable.
Historical records: On July 28, 1937, the Japanese army attacked Nanyuan and Beiyuan on a large scale. Nanyuan was the focus of the Japanese attack, and about 8,000 troops of the 29th Army stationed in Nanyuan (including more than 1,500 students of the military training regiment trained in Nanyuan) dug trenches to block the attack!
Remember: the Japanese army attacked in a big way, and the "29th Army" only "dug trenches to block the attack"!
The enemy came to the door, and only then did they start digging trenches, and it was a fart battle! This is in your barracks, not an encounter on the road!
Song Zheyuan became a huge sinner in history, that is, in the 20 days after the "Lugou Bridge Incident".
It's just a pity that the two generals, Tong Linge and Zhao Dengyu, are blind to death! It is also an eternal pain in the hearts of the entire Chinese nation!
The "on-the-spot negotiations" were clearly a delaying tactic, which enabled the little devils to gain time to increase their troops in North China, and Zhang Zizhong, the mayor of Tianjin at the time, saw the little devils increase their troops every day in Tianjin.
However, Song Zheyuan was "worried about provoking the Japanese", so he did not make combat deployments, let alone build fortifications! The 29th Army of the later Daozhì was crushed at the first touch, and the defeat was like a mountain!
At this time, Chiang finally discovered a serious problem -- Song Zheyuan actually had an attempt to "continue peace talks, strive for the autonomy of North China, and create a second Manchukuo"!
Jiang made a quick decision and sent someone to "protect" Song Zheyuan to Baoding, cutting off the connection between him and the Japanese, completely breaking Song Zheyuan's dream of supporting the army and standing on his own, and the 29th Army was forced to accept the central grouping!
Bai Shujie is a person who has come over for these things, and of course he can "predict the prophet".
But Zhao Jinxi was able to perceive his good intentions through the transfer of troops, and Bai Shujie couldn't find any other words in his heart except admiration.
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
