At the first time when Chen Hanzhang's department forcibly outflanked Jinbei, the boss thought that Yang Zhen's actions this time were too greedy. What the boss is most worried about at the moment is how long Yang Zhen's adventure can last. In the case of lack of stamina, will there be any problems with his deployment of being heavy at both ends and light in the middle.

The total number of troops of the Anti-Japanese Union is very clear to the central authorities. According to the current deployment, the boss is very clear that the strength of the Anti-United Nations has been used to the extreme. Once there is any problem on the three fronts, in fact, on the four fronts, the Anti-United Nations will have no troops to adjust.

In other words, the current Anti-Union has no reserves, which is undoubtedly quite dangerous for such a large-scale battle. Without reserves, if there is a problem on any battlefield, the Anti-Union will not even be able to take countermeasures. This is where the boss is most dissatisfied, such a problem, a battalion commander can see it, he is a commander of resistance, why is it completely inappropriate?

Hearing that the boss's tone was a little angry because of his stubbornness, Yang Zhen smiled and said, "Boss, although the process of this battle is somewhat unexpected to us. In particular, the number and scale of the counterattack forces invested by the Japanese army in the Xinjing battlefield can be said to have greatly exceeded our expectations. But at present, the development of the whole battle situation is still in our expectations. ”

"The casualty figures are indeed large at the moment, but the casualties of the Japanese army are even greater. Don't look at the current counterattack momentum of the Japanese army, but the offensive force has clearly shown a kind of fatigue. Such a large number of casualties is not a kind of pressure on the Kwantung Army. Now what we compare with the Japanese army is to see who can hold out for the last five minutes. ”

"Moreover, our armored forces in the Xinjing battlefield are now freed up and are moving south one after another. As long as our new armored forces are in place, we are ready to adopt a posture of frontal pressure and large depth outflanking on both flanks, forcing the Kwantung Army to abandon Siping Street on its own initiative. ”

"Now the main force of the Second Armored Division has been reassembled between Gongzhuling and Xiaochengzi. Replenishment is currently underway, as well as adjustments to ammunition. Although the losses of the 2nd Armored Division were relatively large before, the vitality and fundamentals were still there. With the current amount of equipment, the division still maintains combat effectiveness. ”

"At least a third of the damaged tanks can now be put back on the battlefield after emergency repairs. Although the infantry of the division has suffered heavy losses, we have drawn the Blue Army Simulation Regiment from the armored training base and strengthened it to this division. Now, except for the equipment damaged in the battle that cannot be replenished for the time being, the division's combat effectiveness has basically been restored. ”

"The offensive on the frontal battlefield has been transferred to two separate tank battalions that have been freed up from the Xinjing battlefield to take over. And now the 2nd Armored Brigade has also been supplemented with M-3 light tanks aided by the United States. In the next step, we are preparing to concentrate the 2nd Armored Brigade to turn north, adopt the tactics of flanking with the main force of the 2nd Armored Division, and use tanks to fight a confrontation with the Japanese army. ”

"As long as the two divisions of the Japanese army west of Siping Street are defeated, the overall situation of the entire northeast battlefield in this battle will be decided. Boss, you're right, we don't have to take Siping Street. In fact, we do not have to bear too much pressure on the Japanese army for the United States and Britain, and if the situation in the Northeast War deteriorates too quickly, it will also limit the Japanese army's investment in the Pacific theater. ”

"We will drag some Japanese soldiers back to the hind legs, but if we are involved too much, we will make trouble for ourselves. The Japanese don't talk about what to do, but I have a standard in mind. I will not let ourselves really break our bones in order to deal with the United States and Britain and relieve the pressure on the United States and Britain. ”

"To put it in private, if the Japanese army is pulled too far back and affects the Japanese army's investment in Southeast Asia and the Pacific, then we can say that we are simply asking for trouble for ourselves. Without pressure, the Americans can calmly expand their military, where do we go to ask for the assistance we need? ”

"Boss, don't worry. When it's time to stop, I know in my heart. The current casualty figures are something we can afford for the time being. I will also grasp the balance between the Northeast Battlefield and the Northern Shanxi Battlefield, and at the same time, I will also do a good job in the deployment of troops on the entire battlefield. ”

"Now the entire east stretches from the Sino-North Korean border to the west to the north of Shanxi and a thousand-kilometer front. In the Rehe battlefield, our army has relied on the front line of Nurul Hushan and transferred to the defense on the whole front. As long as we do not launch an in-depth attack along the Bac Ninh Railway and try to cut off the connection between the Japanese forces inside and outside the Kansai Railway, the Kwantung Army, whose main forces are currently being involved on the northern front, will not devote too many troops to fight for this direction. ”

"Now the units of our army in the direction of Rehe are actually in the position of the general reserve. Although it is not possible to draw too many troops, it is completely possible to draw out a division or two or three brigades in the direction of Chengde. I also know very well that the direction of Rehe is right at the waist of our army, controlling the main passage of our army's westward advance. ”

"The entire Rehe battlefield occupies a very important position in the current situation of our army. Once broken through by the Japanese army, our army will be divided into two sections. For the Kwantung Army, the Rehe battlefield was no less important. Because we can take advantage of the situation, we can directly cut off the Bac Ninh Railway and cut off the land connection between the Kwantung Army and the Japanese army in Kannai. ”

"But boss, the most dangerous thing at the moment is the safest. Why have we already taken Xinjing, and we are still maintaining an offensive in the northeast battlefield. A large part of the reason is to let the Kwantung Army have no time to look westward and ensure the safety of the Rehe battlefield, which is the junction of our army. ”

"What is the weakness of the Japanese army? Their field air defense, as well as anti-tank capabilities, are extremely poor. Except for the Soviet-made T26 tanks, almost none of their main 37 rapid-fire guns can penetrate them. As long as the main armored forces of our army are on the battlefield south of Xinjing for one day, they will not dare to lightly transfer troops from the frontal battlefield to reinforce other directions. ”

"And what are the advantages of our army? That is, the number and performance of tanks are far superior to those of the Japanese army. The Rehe battlefield is mountainous, and the Chanan battlefield is as mountainous, and neither of these two battlefields is suitable for large-scale investment of armored troops. It is possible to attack with a small number of tanks, but with a large number of armored troops, except for the assault, the rest can only consume their own living forces in the mountains little by little. ”

"Although the area around Xinjing is not a plain, it is located at the junction of hills and plains, which is very suitable for the centralized use of a large number of tanks currently equipped by our army. And from Xinjing to Mukden, it is only a few hundred kilometers away. Once the tank units of our army break through the Japanese defense line south of Xinjing, they can reach the city of Mukden in a short time. ”

"Therefore, even if the Japanese army knows that our offensive is bluffing, they can only bite the bullet and continue to invest troops in this direction. The reason why we continue to launch offensives on the battlefield south of Xinjing is precisely this effect. So that the Kwantung Army did not dare to use the main force in any other direction. Not in the Guannai, not in Chanan, not even in the Rehe battlefield in the northeast. ”

"Xinjing and Siping Street are close to Nanman, an important industrial town of the Japanese army. It can be said that Xinjing is a straight-line distance from Mukden, and our army's armored cluster can hit Mukden along the medium-long railway for two days and nights. The military industrial base in Mukden was crucial for the Japanese army to sustain the war. ”

"Because the Japanese army could not afford the consequences of losing the industrial base in South Manchuria. Not to mention that our army took Mukden, even if it hit near Mukden, they couldn't afford the consequences. Without South Manchuria, the Japanese army's munitions production, especially ammunition production, would drop by a third. This was the most fatal blow to the Japanese army. ”

"As long as our army's offensive on the battlefield around Xinjing continues for one day, the Japanese army will not dare to draw even one wing from this battlefield to the west to the Rehe battlefield. Although they knew that the Rehe battlefield was crucial for our army to maintain operations on the Western Front. But compared to South Manchuria, Rehe is even more intolerant of the loss of South Manchuria. ”

"I think that now we are in a defensive posture in Rehe, relying on the line of Nuruer Hushan and Laoha River, and confronting the two Japanese divisions deployed in Fuxin, Chaoyang, Jianping, and Beipiao. As long as our army does not move south, the Japanese army will not take the initiative to attack. Because even if we transfer some of our troops, it will be difficult for the Japanese army to retake Rehe by relying on these two divisions. ”

"Boss, the old foundation laid in the previous battles, although I don't dare to guarantee that the Japanese army will be completely scared. But let them be suspicious and suspicious, knowing that our troops are empty and dare not act, I still have this foundation. Strategically, the Japanese army has suffered too much from us, and now it is either afraid of being beaten or frightened. At least until the end of the battle, the two Japanese divisions did not dare to move. ”

"What's more, our army reserves are depleted. But the reserves of the Japanese army are not sufficient now. Most of the living forces of the Kwantung Army have been thrown into the Xinjing battlefield. In the entire hinterland of South Manchuria, the Japanese army had only one division of troops. Our army transferred the strength of the Rehe battlefield to the defense, and it was relieved that the Japanese army was not our army. ”

"As for the location of the Chanan Advance Army, although it is at the junction of the two major battlefields of our army, and it is close to Pingjin. But one thing is for sure, this is one of the least problematic war zones. The two veterans have rich experience in mountain sports warfare, and the current equipment of the advance army has also been fundamentally improved. ”

"After several months of intensive training, the command ability of cadres at all levels has also been greatly improved. The main thing is the ability of infantry artillery coordination and ground-air coordination, which has been improved in essence. Basically, it has the ability and suzhì required in regular combat. ”

"The number of artillery pieces at all levels of the whole army has been fully equipped, especially the mountain artillery and mortars suitable for mountain operations, and the number of equipment is very large. The number of German-made and Polish-made machine guns with all light weapons, and the number of anti-United Nations and German-made submachine guns suitable for close combat have also been fully equipped, and the amount of ammunition is extremely sufficient. ”

"As long as they don't have any big loopholes in their command, even if the Japanese army invests two more divisions in this mountainous battlefield, it will be difficult to change the current situation of the war. Judging from the experience and ability of the two veterans of the march, the chance of a big enough loophole can be said to be very small. ”

"And as long as Zhangjiakou is taken and the straight-line connection between Chanan and the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region is opened, they will also turn to defense in that direction. Judging from the strength and equipment of the four field columns, 12 brigades, four artillery regiments and two light tank regiments directly under the current advance army in southern Chahar, plus the coordination of the main force of the remaining troops of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, they will not have any big problems in a short period of time if they rely on the mountains of Malaysia to go on the defensive. ”

"As for the battlefield in the north of Jin, our army has launched a mobile defense with an absolute superiority in armored clusters and mobile superiority. It was also difficult for the Japanese offensive to make progress in a short period of time. It is certainly difficult to form a complete line of defense against our army in mountain operations. But it was no less difficult for the Japanese army to form a complete offensive. ”

"As long as they can't fight an offensive that goes hand in hand, I can rely on the superior mobility ability in my hands to adopt the tactics of luring the enemy deep and setting up ambushes to specifically hit the head. We are in the battlefield of northern Jin, not to annihilate too many Japanese troops, I just want to beat them to the core. ”
