In fact, not only Mu Changfeng could not find the Fifth Brigade, but Wang Guangyu, who was at Daotai Bridge at this time, could not find the whereabouts of the Fifth Brigade, in order to find the two regiments that were responsible for the left flank of the Sixth Division and cut off its direct contact with the 14th Division, Wang Guangyu turned on the radio and walkie-talkie of the column headquarters, but no matter how he called, he could never tie to the Fifth Brigade. 【. netbsp; In this operation, the main operational objectives of the 5th Brigade were to forcibly penetrate along the junction of the 6th and 14th divisions and regiments to the Jiaxin Mountain and the first line of felling greenhouses, and to cooperate with the **4th Brigade, which was reorganized from the former 3rd Division, which had been reorganized from the first line of the 6th Division and the 14th Division to cross the Songhua River from the western line of Tonghe Niuxiang Paotun to Yangdali on the western front, and to seize the front line of Hutieling Mountain, the commanding heights in the eastern part of Fangzheng County, so as to completely cut off the connection between the 6th Division and the 14th Division.
After completing the first step, the Fifth Brigade will continue to penetrate along the Zhangguangcailing Mountains on the border between Yilan and Linkou counties with the strength of no less than one regiment to the line of Bangmaoling, which is deep in depth of the Sixth Division, seize the line of Bangmaoling, and cooperate with the 1st Brigade attacking from the front to complete the encirclement of the 6th Division in the Yilana area.
Although there are only a small number of regular Japanese troops, there are a large number of puppet Manchurian military police, especially those puppet Manchurian forest policemen who are extremely familiar with the terrain and the local land snakes, and the Fifth Brigade has never been able to contact them now, Wang Guangyu is very worried, although the combat effectiveness of those forest policemen is not strong, but they are the head snakes.
Moreover, in order to clear out the anti-Japanese alliance, the forest police force specially set up by the Japanese puppets lives in the mountains and forests all the year round, and they are familiar with the mountains and forests, and they are familiar with the terrain, so I am afraid that they will bring a lot of trouble to the roundabout troops.
Wang Guangyu is now worried that the Fifth Brigade will be ambushed by the Japanese puppet army in a roundabout, and second, he is also worried that the Fifth Brigade will get lost on the way around the way, this area is located at the northern foot of the Zhangguangcai Mountains, the mountains are steep, it is a patch of primeval forest area, except for a small number of hunters and ginseng pickers, as well as the puppet Manchurian lumberjacks, there are almost no people, once the Fifth Brigade gets lost in the mountains, the consequences will be very severe.
Although they were very confident in the ability of the commander of the Fifth Brigade, they almost marched in the mountains and forests along the way, not to mention that they had to face the situation of being flanked by the Japanese puppet army on both sides, and they had never made contact with each other since they broke through the Japanese defense line in the early morning and began to penetrate deep into the enemy's depth.
In order to ensure the success of this roundabout, Wang Guangyu did not even use his old first brigade, but called the fifth brigade, which was changed from Yi Liangpin, the former chief of staff of the first brigade, to the brigade commander, because in his opinion, Yi Liangpin's ability to control the troops in this kind of long-distance attack and large-depth detour was better than Mu Changfeng.
Yi Liangpin was a veteran Red Army cadre transferred from Guannai, who served as the head of the main regiment and a member of the political committee of the Red Fourth Front Army, and when the Red Fourth Front Army was changed to the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army, he successively served as the commander of the 772nd Regiment and a member of the political committee of the four main regiments of the 129th Division.
After graduating from Kang University last year, the 129th Division originally named him to go back to serve as the principal of the camp school that trained backbone and grassroots commanders, but he did not want to be selected by the central government to work in the northeast.
Later, during the autumn campaign, he was transferred to the chief of staff of a brigade, and he was a brave general with both military and political integrity; when the army was expanded last year, Yang Zhen originally wanted to transfer him to the third division as political commissar, but Wang Guangyu refused to let him go, and wanted to transfer Yi Liangpin to a column as chief of staff.
Wang Guangyu bluntly told Yang Zhen that changing Yi Liangpin from a military cadre to a political work cadre was a condescending talent, and that he was a military and political all-rounder, and if he could not be transferred to the main brigade to serve as the brigade commander, then he would be transferred to the first column and then serve as the chief of staff, and it was really not okay to serve as the deputy commander.
In the end, Li Yanping made the final decision and transferred Yi Liangpin to the Fifth Brigade as the brigade commander, which allowed Wang Guangyu, who had never made irresponsible remarks in the selection of cadres, to find Yang Zhen and Li Yanping several times, which also showed that this person was extremely capable from another aspect, but the shape of this roundabout route made Wang Guangyu very worried.
Looking at Wang Guangyu, who was a little anxious, Chen Hanzhang on the side raised his head from the map and said: "Lao Wang, don't worry, they are all marching in a hurry along the way, there may be no time to set up a radio station, maybe the mountains are high and the forests are dense, which affects the radio signal, there is a platoon in the headquarters reconnaissance battalion that is active in that area, there should be no problem with their cooperation!" ”
"Yi Liangpin served as the military and political leader at the regimental level when he was in the Red Army, he is very capable and has rich combat experience, and the two regiment commanders are old bones, plus although that area is the depth of the Japanese army, most of the deployment are puppet Manchurian military police, and the combat effectiveness is much worse than that of the Japanese army, and there is also the ** Fourth Brigade to disperse the strength of the Japanese puppet army, there should not be much difference!"
Wang Guangyu lit the cigarette in his hand and took a deep breath before saying: "The Fifth Brigade can't be contacted, the Sixth Division is now the main force on the First Brigade, the little devils dispatched dozens of tanks at once, the pressure on their side is very great, judging from the battle situation from the early morning to now, this Sixth Division is the toughest opponent we have encountered!" ”
"Since the beginning of the battle, although there is only half a division of troops, but still has been fighting against the first brigade, one morning, the first brigade has suffered casualties of nearly one regiment, in the fight, even if these troops of the sixth division can be eaten, I am afraid that the first brigade will be disabled!"
"The first brigade has more than 9,000 troops, but two-thirds of them have never been on the battlefield, although they have participated in many synthetic exercises, but they lack actual combat experience, not to mention that their devils there have dispatched more than 60 tanks and armored vehicles to fight together, and it is not a thing to fight like this!"
"I'm wondering if the attack should be stopped temporarily, since the afternoon, in fact, the 1st Brigade has been transferred to the defense under the coordinated counter-charge of the Japanese infantry tank, and it is better to wait for the enemy planes to withdraw at night and the artillery to resume their activities, and then turn to continue the attack!"
Before Chen Hanzhang could answer, Yang Zhen's voice sounded behind Wang Guangyu: "No, tell the 1st Brigade that you can't stop, let them continue to fight in depth with the Japanese army, if you stop the attack, let the Japanese army, which originally occupied the commanding heights, take the initiative away, and you will be in trouble in the next battle!" ”
Hearing the voice from behind, Wang Guangyu and Chen Hanzhang hurriedly turned around and stood upright, and when they saw Yang Zhen, Wang Guangyu hurriedly said: "No. 1, why are you here, this is too close to the front line, are you retreating some distance!" ”
Yang Zhen didn't answer him, but walked to the map, pointed to the map and said: "The whole battlefield situation now seems to be very beneficial to us, but in fact, we have put all the living forces at hand into it, and there is a little problem with the mobilization of the production and construction corps, if we want to get enough reserves, we still need to fight for another three to five days to complete!" ”
"And the 11th Division of the Japanese Army in Mishan, the 12th Division on the line from Suiyang to Dongning, and the 29th Division that is now advancing north to Muling to replace the 8th Division can go north to participate in the battle at any time, and we don't even have a regiment reserve now, so we must choose a direction to decide!"
Judging from the current comprehensive battle situation, although the heavy equipment of this sixth division is the worst among the four divisions and regiments of the Japanese army on the first line, its combat effectiveness is the strongest, and it not only undertakes the main operation on the Western Front, but also assumes the role of the intermediate connection of the entire Japanese defense line.
"We often say that the snake fights seven inches, and this sixth division is the seven inches of the entire defense line of the Japanese army, we only eat this part of the sixth division of the Japanese army in the south of Yilan in one breath, and our whole game of chess is really alive, now your brigade is hard, in fact, Tao Jingfei on the eastern front is really fighting very hard!"
"In the afternoon, the Japanese army gave up the original battle plan, and the main force of its eighth division all moved westward to reinforce the tenth division.
"Tao Jingfei has only five regiments there, and there are also poorly equipped divisional troops, to block the five wings of the Japanese army with a large number of aviation, heavy artillery and tanks, more than 20,000 Japanese troops, think about whether they are under great pressure!"
"If it weren't for Du Kaishan forcibly pulling a regiment from his right flank to march eastward, I'm afraid that Tao Jingfei would no longer be able to support it at this time, just this afternoon, in half a day, Tao Jingfei's main regiment suffered two-thirds of the casualties, and it can be said that it has been disabled!"
"How long does Tao Jingfei need to hold on, the key is not in themselves, but here with you and Du Kaishan, the sooner you resolve the battle, the less pressure they will have there, so no matter how difficult it is, you have to grit your teeth and persevere, and the Japanese army is now counterattacking so strongly, it is a rare opportunity for us!"
"The stronger the Japanese counterattack, the more difficult it is for them now, you see, from the map, almost all of the areas between Yilan and Lin ** are primeval mountains and forests, where there are no people, even on the map drawn by the Japanese themselves, there are almost no roads except for one or two roads!"
"Once the unprepared Japanese army retreats there, I'm afraid the result is difficult to predict, since the Fifth Brigade has been out for nearly a day, it is impossible not to encounter the Japanese puppet army, the Japanese army is not a fool, and now they should know that we have sent troops to outflank it.
"For the Sixth Division, once its rear road is cut off by us, judging from the terrain here, unless they move east to join up with their eastern reinforcement forces, or retreat westward regardless of a qiē, they can only enter the deep mountains and old forests!"
"The Japanese generals are not stupid, the Sixth Division has not been transferred from the Guannai battlefield for a long time, even if there is a detailed map, but the Sixth Division has never been stationed in the northeast, and the Qiē here is extremely unfamiliar to them, the terrain and climate are all unfamiliar, not when it is time to rush the eyes, they will not retreat into the mountains and forests!"
"The more aggressively they counterattack now, the more it shows that they are eager to gain room for maneuver, that is, their current thinking is one sentence, stick to treatment, only the greater the room for maneuver, they can broaden the scope of defense as much as possible in the next step of the operation, and they will buy more time for their defense."
