Chapter 401: Total Attack

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

It was precisely because the strategy of the Jiaxinzi front line was very important that Yang Zhen always felt that the Japanese army had shifted the focus of its attack to Dongguan at this time, and the attack intensity of the Jiaxinzi front line had dropped greatly. 【. com text] is always hiding some purpose, and the real purpose is likely to be a line of letters. Maybe what they are waiting for is to take the initiative to weaken the defense force on the front line of the clip.

According to the reconnaissance of the scouts sent by Liu Changshun, the Japanese troops on the Jinshagang front line were all of the 12th Wing and one and a half brigades of the 43rd Wing, and the remaining strength of the 43rd Wing had not yet appeared. Although the reconnaissance was sloppy due to time reasons, Liu Changshun was sure that the remaining troops of the 43rd Wing, which had been missing, were definitely not on the front line of Jinshagang.

And it was not just one and a half brigades of the forty-third wing that were missing. According to the intelligence intercepted by the scouts, there were also three squadrons of several squadrons forcibly drawn from the Eighth Border Garrison by Ushijima Manitsu, as well as the Mishan Special Garrison formed by Koreans in Manchuria recruited by the Japanese army.

A second lieutenant of the military police of the Mishan Military Police of the Japanese Army, who was captured by the scouts who went south to reconnoiter from the Qixinghe River, confessed that this Mishan Special Garrison Unit, which was formed by the Koreans, was specially organized by the Japanese army after the Battle of Autumn last year to replace the puppet Manchurian army that had already been formed and began to appear unstable, and to carry out the blockade of the base area.

Although this Mishan special garrison was wearing a puppet Manchu military uniform and was paid by the puppet Manchu military and political department, it was commanded by the Japanese army. All of them were trained in the traditional training methods of the Japanese army, and all the officers were selected from the Japanese army and a small number of Korean graduates of the puppet Manchurian military academy. There was not a single so-called Manchu in the entire army, that is, Chinese from the northeast.

Judging from the confession of the second lieutenant of the military police, the combat effectiveness of this so-called Mishan special garrison is quite strong, far superior to that of the ordinary puppet Manchu army. Moreover, the most important thing is that the amount of its troops is almost the same as that of an integrated brigade of the Japanese army, and the equipment is completely configured in accordance with the standards of the Japanese brigade. Light and heavy machine guns, grenadiers, and infantry guns are all available.

According to this arrangement, although the 43rd Wing left behind one and a half brigades in Jinshagang, after adding the Mishan Special Garrison and the three squadrons drawn from the Eighth National Border Garrison, it is actually one more brigade than the original strength, and its total strength is actually equivalent to a reinforced wing.

Thousands of Japanese troops have not shown up until now, and with the importance of the first line of Jiaxinzi, it is difficult for Yang Zhen to be convinced that the offensive at Dongguan is the Japanese army's true intention. Under the premise that the forty-third wing did not show its tail, Yang Zhen would definitely not use any troops on the front line of the clip. Because judging from the overall deployment of the 11th Division in the north of Baoqing, this 43rd Wing will definitely not be too far from the main battlefield. It should be around the county seat of Baoqing.

However, although Yang Zhen did not interrupt the mobilization of the first line of soldiers before the 43rd Wing revealed clues. But Yang Zhen had already made up his mind that as long as this 43rd Wing appeared on the battlefield of Baoqing, then it would be the time for the main force hidden at the junction of Baoqing and Boli to dispatch at this moment. And the armored brigade on the northern front can launch a full-scale attack on the Hulin line according to the predetermined plan.

Looking at the northern area of Baoqing that had become a pot of porridge on the map, Yang Zhen frowned, and he had some admiration in his heart for the opponent who caused the current situation. If it weren't for the huge losses of the Japanese army before, it would have caused an obvious shortage of troops.

When the 11th Division went north, it was able to send a part of its troops to attack north from Ning'an and Weihe. Cooperate with the 14th Division in the west, the 29th Division in Boli and the 11th Division, I am afraid that I will really be passive. If you don't get it right, you may even be overturned.

Thinking of this, Yang Zhen shook his head in his heart: "This Ushishima is really a general, no wonder in later generations it will be called the most difficult Japanese general in the Pacific theater by the US military." If this siege plan is under his command, I am afraid that it will be much more difficult for me to fight. It is said that Harata Shigeichi is good at attacking, but in terms of strategic and tactical deployment, he is still much worse than this Ushijima Man, who is good at surprise soldiers. ”

"His 11th Division seems to be scattered, but in fact, whether it is the 44th Wing in Baoqing County or the 12th Wing on the front line of Jinshagang, on the whole, it is a situation of mutual coordination, plus the 43rd Wing, which is still missing. Regardless of which direction is passive, the other side will arrive for reinforcements in the shortest possible time. ”

And its overall strategic deployment is almost a ring of this link. The meticulousness and tactical sophistication of its tactical deployment are really rare since its crossing. Almost every move on the entire Baoqing battlefield was in his calculations. Perhaps only he had aviation and an armored brigade on hand that was unexpected for him. ”

It is precisely because Ushijima is too meticulous in the overall layout that Yang Zhen is worried about the 43rd Wing, which is still nowhere to be seen. would rather let Peng Shilu die in Dongguan than move the first line of Xinzi. Because in his opinion, if Dongguan is the support point of Baoqing County, then Jia Xinzi is the support point of the entire Baoqing battlefield.

Yang Zhen, who had been pondering this Ushijima Man, would use this forty-third wing, which had now reached the standard of strengthening the wing, suddenly had a very strange idea. He was eager to meet this guy who had caused him so many troubles. If it weren't for the fact that this guy was guilty of many crimes in the Nanjing Massacre, Yang Zhen really wanted to order to be caught alive. Let this guy stay and be an instructor for himself. Like his colleague who was captured in the campaign last fall.

Just when Yang Zhen was pondering where the 43rd Wing would appear, a staff officer walked in and handed a telegram to Yang Zhen and said, "No. 1, Commander Liu is calling. In the morning, after our air force completed the attack on the Japanese troops on the Qingyuan line, the radio station that monitored the movements of the 11th Division suddenly lost all monitoring signals. Including tactical radios often used by the Japanese army. ”

As early as when Liu Changshun arrived on the north bank of the Qixing River, in accordance with Yang Zhen's order, he cooperated with the personnel of the intelligence department of the military region to set up several high-power radio stations, and kept trying to listen to the telegrams of the 11 th Division. It is not yet possible to decipher the code, but at least it is possible to determine its location.

Just because the opponent is cunning and changeable, the high-power stations used are mostly silent on the radio. Even at the expense of using tactical radios to turn each other, they rarely turn on their phones. Even the occasional boot time is extremely short. Although the high-power radio signal used by the 11th Division was captured, its exact location was never determined because the Japanese army's call time was too short.

Hearing that Liu Changshun's monitoring radio had lost the radio signal of the 11th Division, Yang Zhen was slightly stunned. Immediately took the telegram and looked at it carefully: "Could it be that the Japanese army on the front line of Qingyuan is not only a logistics and baggage base, but also the headquarters of the 11th Division is also in Qingyuan?" The air raid of the aviation on Qingyuan destroyed the headquarters of the 11th Division along with those baggage? Otherwise, when the war situation is heating up right now, no matter how cunning Ushijima is, he will not turn off all the radio stations. Unless he wants to cause chaos on the entire battlefield. ”

Looking at the content on the telegram, Yang Zhen really found it hard to believe that he had such good luck. At the beginning of the Battle of Baoqing, the headquarters of the 11th Division was cut off. It's just that this cunning Ushijima who has caused a lot of trouble to himself will die so easily?

Although Yang Zhen did not believe that this cunning Ushijima Manchu General was killed lightly. But one thing is certain, the interruption of all radio signals of the 11th Division is definitely not a confusing feint by the Japanese army, but must have a problem with the headquarters of the 11th Division itself.

However, judging from the fact that the signal interruption of the regimental headquarters of the 11th Division occurred after the aviation completed the air attack on Qingyuan, Yang Zhen can be sure that the regimental headquarters of the 11th Division is on the front line of Qingyuan. And Yang Zhen, who was still pondering the movements of the 43rd Wing just now, was thinking about what the Japanese army in Baoqing would do next if the headquarters of the 11th Division was destroyed.

Although I do not believe that the Japanese army, which is extremely capable of fighting separately and has a very strong combat capability, will fall into chaos in an all-round way, without the command system, there will definitely be some problems in the overall coordination. At present, it is the best time for himself to launch a general attack on the 11th Division in Baoqing.

Although the strength of the 11th Division has not yet weakened to the goal set by Yang Zhen in his heart, if it continues to delay and the border area between Baoqing and Mishan is not closed in time, it is very likely that the main force of the 11th Division will slip away. If Ushijima Man really died, Yang Zhen would not worry about the 11th Division slipping away.

But this Ushijima is still alive, and it is very likely that there will be a general retreat when the situation is not good. If the entire 11th Division is allowed to withdraw to Mishan, it will bring great passivity to the next battle plan.

After hesitating for a moment, Yang Zhen, who had made up his mind to attack generally, said to the staff officers beside him: "You record it." Du Kaishan was ordered to attack and advance from the current station, Sifang Dingzi Mountain, to the southeast of Mishan. Before 12 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, it is necessary to occupy the county seat of Mishan and close the retreat of the 11th Division. At the same time, with the strength of no less than two regiments, he advanced to the front line of Hulin Yanggangzi. ”

"Order the 1st Column Wang Guangyu, Yi Jianping's 1st Brigade and 5th Brigade of the Command Post to immediately attack and advance from the front line of Lao Bald Zi to the east. Seize the line of Xiaochengzi, Taipinggou, Erdaohezi, and Jianshanzi, and close the retreat of the Japanese army in the north of Baoqing. At the same time, the first brigade seized the Tuanshanzi line to the north and penetrated directly into Qingyuan. ”

"Ordered Tao Jingfei to immediately turn around and go west to the flank of the 29th Division after defeating the 63rd Wing. Report to the chief of staff that all the troops on the front line of the pot helmet river are under his unified command. The 29th Division's movements were clamped down, so that it could not be transferred eastward to reinforce the Baoqing and Mishan battlefields. ”

"Telegraphed Sun San to immediately forcibly move south along the junction of Baoqing and Rao rivers according to the predetermined plan, and forcibly interspersed into the territory of Hulin. Be sure to arrive at the front line of Yanggang before 7 o'clock tomorrow night and cut off the route of the 11th Division's eastward retreat to Hulin. At the same time, he cooperated with Du Kaishan to attack the Eighth Division, which was now resting at the junction of Baoqing and Hulin. Rigidly entangled the 8th Division. Ensure the encirclement and annihilation of the main force of the 11th Division by the main force. ”

The telegram ordered Liu Changshun to attack and advance south from the Jinshagang line with the strength of no less than one regiment, and forcibly interspersed into the depth of the 11th Division, cutting off the connection between the various units of the 11th Division. The aviation regiment of Yuan Bin and Xia Boxun was ordered to conduct a close reconnaissance of the territory of Baoqing, find out the 43rd Wing at any cost, and immediately launch an air attack. ”
