Chapter 6 The posture must be stretched sufficiently

This move of the Kwantung Army can be described as a big deal, and there are really few people who dare to play like this when they change other people. And if it weren't for the fact that they transferred the 5th Division to Xifu Xinhe

Zhangwu's first line, this is somewhat trying to cover up the move, which makes No. 1 sense that something is wrong. Maybe Number One and himself were really confused by what they made.

It's just that Guo Bingxun can't understand why the Kwantung Army didn't attack at that time when Chen Hanzhang was pinned down by the Japanese army in Bayantara. It had to wait until Chen Hanzhang's troops began to force the crossing of the Xiliao River before they began to act. The Kwantung Army, which has always made up its mind and acted resolutely, is it really the department of Du Kaishan who has not appeared because he is so hesitant to act this time?

Or are you stubbornly waiting for the success of the attack on the Songhua River embankment? Did they really put all their hopes on the attack on the Songhua River embankment, and cut off the back road of the entire Jiangnan Anti-Japanese Federation with water instead of soldiers? This kind of approach, which seems to be dead-eyed, is not a normal phenomenon in military affairs.

You must know that the best time for the Kwantung Army to attack on the Tongliao line was when the main force of Chen Hanzhang's department was entangled in the Bayantala line, and Ma Chunshen had not yet shown up. At this time, Ma Chunsheng had not yet attacked, and most of the troops and equipment of Chen Hanzhang's department were invested in the competition for the area fortified by the Japanese army in Bayantara.

The other part was also blocked in the area north of Kailu. On the entire flank of the Shuangliao line, there was only one regiment of troops. In the southern part of the Tongliao battlefield, in the front banner of the left wing of Horqin, the Kulun banner, and the Naiman banner, there was not a single soldier. If the Kwantung Army counterattacked at this opportunity, it could be said that it was the best time to attack.

But at this time, except for sending an 18th division to detour behind Chen Hanzhang's back, the Kwantung Army did not make any other moves on the Tongliao front, and took the best measures in vain. When Chen Hanzhang's troops had already solved the Bayantala fortified area, forcibly crossed the Xiliao River, and had begun to besiege Tongliao County, they remembered to take action, but they had missed the best opportunity.

Of course, when Chen Hanzhang's troops besieged the two major counties of Tongliao and Kailu, the Kwantung Army still had a certain opportunity. If the Fifth Division has already been mobilized to the front line of Zhangwu and Xifuxin, and immediately moves the whole army north, seizes the Naiman Banner and the Kulun Banner, and enters the rear banner of the left flank of Horqin with a part of the troops, it will involve a considerable part of Chen Hanzhang's energy.

At the same time, it can also make it impossible for Chen Hanzhang to invest too many troops in the siege of Tongliao and Kailu. At least Tongliao County will not be lost so quickly. After the loss of the Bayantara line and the breakthrough of the Xiliao River, the county town of Tongliao, which had lost almost all its barriers, needed a large number of reinforcements, not only a few hundred paratroopers.

It is true that Du Kaishan's headquarters has not shown up, which can certainly make the Kwantung Army have some doubts when deploying. But it will never let the Kwantung Army worry so much when it acts. The strength of the two divisions, with the establishment of each division of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, the total strength is not small, but it is not too much. When a large corps fights, the strength of two divisions is nothing.

It is certain that there are certain concerns, but did it really affect the determination of the Kwantung Army? You must know that if they launch a counterattack on the Tongliao front line before Ma Chunsheng's troops arrive, then even if Chen Hanzhang will not be surrounded and annihilated by him, he will be passive for at least a short time.

Flanked from three sides, there was another remnant of the 14th Division in the heart of the army still resisting. Even after the arrival of Ma Chunsheng's department, it was quite difficult to reverse this unfavorable situation. Ma Chunsheng's multi-division force may only help him hold back the 18th Division and avoid a siege on three sides.

However, the Kwantung Army did not dispatch in advance, and when it was time to attack, it was blocked by Ma Chunsheng's department, which suddenly killed him, blocking the most lethal attack channel on the Tongliao battlefield. The most important thing is to buy enough time for Chen Hanzhang to completely take Tongliao and Kailu, the two strategic towns.

While solving the great problem of his henchmen, he also completely took the initiative in the Tongliao battlefield in his own hands. What is it that slows down their actions by half a beat, and that a plan that can almost be said to be perfect ultimately falls through? Chen Hanzhang has always been puzzled by this question.

Although Guo Bingxun has never figured out what the Kwantung Army's true combat intentions are, he knows that the plan he is now drawing up must be formulated in as much detail as possible, and it must be implemented more carefully, so that the Kwantung Army must not be allowed to see his true thoughts and intentions. forced the Kwantung Army to take the initiative to terminate the counterattack and break away from the various departments of the Anti-Japanese Alliance.

Although this is not an easy task, under the planning of Guo Bingxun's racking brains, it has achieved considerable success. Of course, if it were not for the previous series of successful strategic deception and concealment, the Kwantung Army's assessment of the strategic attempts of the confrontation alliance would have been wrong again and again.

We attach great importance to every adjustment on the battlefield of the Anti-Japanese Federation, and only after repeated studies can we come to conclusions that are not necessarily correct, or even go in the opposite direction. As a result, the intelligence department of the Kwantung Army is now quite a bit of a soldier. Guo Bingxun's tricks can achieve the expected results, and he himself does not have much confidence.

After all, under the circumstance of limited troops, no matter how he mobilizes his troops to make feints or take real actions, he will not be able to use too many means. Although the plan may seem complicated, it is not difficult to make an accurate judgment when analyzed carefully. At least for the adjustment of Chen Hanzhang's troops, he can only adopt a series of methods to enhance the strength of Chen Hanzhang's troops as much as possible.

Under the circumstance that the means that can be taken in hand are very limited, it is necessary to do what Yang Zhen said, that is, to do enough play, let the Kwantung Army fall into its own trap, and take the initiative to stop the attack. It is not an easy thing to take advantage of the Kwantung Army's opportunity to take advantage of the loophole, and it is not an easy thing to backhand yourself, which requires extremely careful thinking to really do this.

On the second day after the overall situation of the Tongliao battlefield had been decided, he ordered Ma Chunsheng's headquarters to immediately break away from contact with the Japanese troops in front of him, adopt alternate cover, and withdraw to the west of the Zhengtao Railway in Shuangliao. For Ma Chunsheng, a militant, Guo Bingxun, who was a little worried that he would see a fighter plane to seize and didn't care about anything, issued three orders in a row.

He must withdraw to the west of the Shuangliao-Zhengtao Railway in the shortest possible time, and he is absolutely not allowed to make too many entanglements with the Japanese army in front of him. If the 18th Division retreats through its flank, it is only allowed to adopt the tactics of tailgating and pursuing and intercepting and killing its small forces, and it is absolutely not allowed to intercept it on its head.

And his pursuit line is absolutely not allowed to exceed the highway from Changling Xin'an to Dongwolf Cave. Once the 18th Division had crossed this line, the pursuit must be stopped immediately, and not a single soldier should be allowed to cross this line. If he is caught pursuing over this line, he will be given the most severe punishment.

Chen Hanzhang's subordinates were ordered to withdraw to the west bank of the West Liao River on the Shuangliao line, and use the West Liao River east of Zhengjiatun as a natural barrier to build fortifications. If the Japanese tried to break through the defense line of the West Liao River, they immediately launched a blockade on the spot. Guo Bingxun clearly told Chen Hanzhang that his right flank defense line was on the West Liao River. Neither allowed the Japanese army to break through the defenses of the first line of the West Liao River, nor did they lightly cross the river to counterattack.

Guo Bingxun told Chen Hanzhang that after the arrival of the troops assigned to him by Wang Guangyu's department, he would strengthen this part of his own armored brigade and spread it out in the direction of Zhanyu to the north, and put on an attack posture on the 18th Division behind him. In addition, after Ma Chunsheng's headquarters was withdrawn to the west of the Zhengtao Railway, it was immediately incorporated into his organization.

At the same time, on his southern front, it is necessary to do a good job of defense. No matter how tempting the Fifth Division is, it must never take the initiative to attack. And in the southwest, in the north of the Kulun Banner and the Naiman Banner, it should also be taken lightly. In a word, it is necessary to put on an offensive posture on the bright side, but the real intention is actually based on defense.

If the 18th Division goes south and detours behind him, it will immediately concentrate its forces and cooperate with Wang Xiaoming's troops who are attacking and advancing from east to west, as well as the original 18th Division troops that are following the pursuit, completely divide and surround it, and cleanly destroy this 18th Division.

But the 18th Division only retreated quickly, and put on a posture of attacking its flank. With small groups of tanks and cavalry, carry out harassing attacks and concentrate on sending off passengers. But the main forces should focus their attention on a possible attack by the 5th Division to the south.

In short, on the Tongliao front, his task was to go on the offensive in the north and take a defensive position in the south. Make a posture of cooperating with friendly and neighboring troops to encircle and annihilate the 18th Division first. This posture must be pulled to the feet. But in the absence of a new order, do not lightly launch an operation against the 18th Division. He had to report the situation to the headquarters at any time.

Wang Guangyu was ordered to immediately transfer two tank battalions and the artillery directly under them to rush to the Tongliao battlefield in the shortest possible time. At the same time, Wang Guangyu's subordinate was ordered to immediately deploy along the entire left flank of the Weng Niute Left Banner, which was responding to the fierce battle with the 1st Division of the 13th Division, which was trying to recapture the prince's mansion, as well as most of the cavalry brigade.

As for the Linxi battlefield, if the two divisions of the Japanese army in front of them retreated, one of them could be intercepted. However, it is necessary to control the rhythm of the attack and minimize the battle damage and casualties as much as possible. However, the left banner of Weng Niute must be controlled in the anti-Japanese alliance. At the same time, depending on the development of the situation, cooperate with Chen Hanzhang's department to take all the Naiman banners in order to expand the depth of the entire West Manchurian defense.

Wang Xiaoming was ordered to immediately transfer some troops from the Xinjing battlefield to strengthen the front line of Changling on the right flank, and ensure that the strength of the troops in Changling was not less than two reinforced regiments. At the same time, with the strength of no less than one regiment, as the vanguard force, it attacked and advanced to the location of the headquarters of the 18th Division. Guo Bingxun's order to Wang Xiaoming was that his troop operations on the front line of Changling should be carried out no later than noon tomorrow.

After successively issuing the latest combat orders to the departments of the two major battlefields of Ximan and Xinjing. Guo Bingxun ordered Tao Jingfei's troops, who were fighting in Korea at the moment, to abandon all existing battle plans, immediately alternate cover, and withdraw to the west bank of the Tumen River as quickly as possible.

After joining up with the troops of the Songjiang Military Region, all the defensive positions on the west bank of the Tumen River, as well as the strength of one regiment left, were transferred to the troops of the Songjiang Military Region, and the main force was hidden and waiting in the Changbai Mountains in the territory of Tumen and Wangqing. During the process of concealment and standby, all departments were not allowed to enter the county seat.

The supplies of the headquarters were transferred by the Songjiang Military Region. All personnel are not allowed to enter the county seat. All communications were changed to 15-watt radio stations, which were forwarded by the troops of the Songjiang Military Region that took over the defense. It is necessary to exercise strict control over all personnel of all units.

The villages around the troop stations are subject to military control, and strict lighting control is to be exercised at night. All vehicles and horses should be concealed with the utmost care. In short, it is a sentence that must ensure that the location of the department must not be exposed.

However, his unit is not simply on standby and resting, and while his troops are on standby, they must also be ready to set off at any time and be prepared to reinforce other battlefields in accordance with the requirements of the headquarters. Letting him stand by is only part of the headquarters' entire strategic intent this time, and it doesn't really let them go to Nanshan.
