"Lingfu, this basin is too small, and the mobility of tanks cannot be used. In this battle, you only need to cover the infantry to break through the Japanese defensive position, and then rush to Chaoyang County. Remember to occupy Chaoyang County town, don’t let the Communists squeeze in!” A funny-looking young lieutenant colonel with small eyes and a big nose sat side by side with Zhang Zhonglin in the back of the armored car, chattering all the way Tell him the key points of this combat mission.

Zhang Zhonglin waved his hands impatiently: "I said Hu Boyu, Chief Staff Officer Hu, I am not a three-year-old child anymore, I will see the order for myself on how to fight this battle, besides, with this broken terrain, you can let me Where is my tank going?"

This young man named Hu Boyu is the famous Hu Lian in history, Boyu is his name, and now he is the combat section chief of the Second Light Armored Division of the National Revolutionary Army.Like this Zhang Lingfu who is also called Zhang Zhonglin, he graduated from the fourth phase of Whampoa University and the third phase of Lu University, and his current military rank is also lieutenant colonel.Although they are not as good as Lin Yurong, a classmate of the fourth period, they are all promising elites of the Kuomintang.

Hu Lian looked at the surrounding mountains and smiled: "That's right, this time you don't have to worry about running around with your tank." Then he took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Zhonglin: "This is an order sent directly to you by the General Staff. It is signed by the assistant commander. After this battle is over, you have to write a detailed report describing the performance of the No. [-] tank on the battlefield."

Zhang Zhonglin glanced at the envelope, then threw it back to Hu Lian: "It's too early to give this to me, I don't plan to come back alive from this battle!"

Hu Lian chuckled: "You Zhang Lingfu always say this time...don't even look at these big iron lumps, they are invulnerable! What will Little Japan use to fight?"

"Information says that the Japanese have 37mm rapid-fire guns. Our tanks are too thin, but they can't defend against them." Zhang Zhonglin raised his binoculars and began to observe the terrain.

"37 guns? There are twelve divisions in a division. I don't know what can be left after being bombarded by cannons for half an hour. After several rounds of bombing by planes?" Hu Lian seemed indifferent when talking about the 37 guns. He is a staff officer, and it is not his turn to go to the front line in a war.He lowered his voice again, and moved closer to Zhang Zhonglin: "I heard that the higher-ups plan to drop the two light-armored divisions to the northeast, and there may be a big battle in the future!"

Zhang Zhonglin didn't say a word after hearing this, put down the binoculars, put his arms around his chest, put his right hand on his chin and pondered for a while, then nodded slowly: "The convoy transporting the wounded from the Communist Party and the Northeast Army has filled the entire road in the past two days. The CCP and the Northeast Army have suffered heavy losses this time! Our principal Jiang's skills are..."

Hu Lian sneered: "That's why we fought big battles! If we don't weaken them, who will take down the Northeast? In my opinion, Principal Luo is also involved in this matter. They have a bad face and a good face."

……

"How many people are left in the Communist Party?"

At this time, Luo Yaoguo was sitting opposite to Chiang Kai-shek, who had just returned from the front line, in the meeting room of the joint command headquarters in Huludao.There was a pile of telegrams spread out in front of Lao Jiang, the worst villain in all of China, with a look of success, counting with his fingers!

"There are still [-] to [-]." Chiang Kai-shek sighed. The battles on the Chaoyang and Beipiao front lines were extremely fierce these two days. With the same slow speed as the first division of the Kuomintang, the first and second divisions of the Jin army, they just climbed to the front line of Chaoyang early this morning, so they did not suffer any losses.

"How many are left on Chaoyang Front?" Luo Yaoguo lowered his head and was staring at the map on the table carefully. The map was densely marked with various numbers and arrow pointers.In the west of Liaoning, it is even more dense to the extreme, and it seems that a decisive battle for the main force is inevitable.And the military force of the Communist Party is necessary to win this war.

"The Communist Party still has 1000, the Northeast Army has 17, the Jin Army's two divisions also have 130, our first division has 72, and there are two tank battalions with more than 48 people. On the Chaoyang front, we still have 360 troops from various factions in China. We have [-] cannons, [-] from the Jin Army, [-] from the Northeast Army, and [-] from the Communist Party, for a total of [-]. The Northeast Army may not have many shells left."

Chiang Kai-shek stayed at the front for a few days, but he had a thorough understanding of the situation of the Northeast Army and the Communist Party, and now he speaks clearly.

Luo Yaoguo took a red and blue pencil and recorded the data reported by Chiang Kai-shek one by one in the blank space on the map, then smiled and said: "It seems that the battle of Chaoyang is still a bit sure, according to the intelligence, the Japanese were the first to fight there." 11. The No.19 and No.300 divisions are equipped with more than 150 cannons, including 36 37mm heavy cannons, and three or six [-]mm rapid-fire guns, which were just shipped from Japan. "

Chiang Kai-shek picked up this well-drawn map, turned it upside down, and laughed, "There is no problem in defeating the Japanese devils. The question is, can we get the west of Liaoning after the fight? How can we appease the Communist Party and the Northeast Army after we get it?" , let them give us time to get our feet on the ground.”

Luo Yaoguo nodded noncommittally, Lao Jiang really did a beautiful bad thing this time, making the Communist Party and the Northeast Army miserable!And there is no handle left... But the Communist Party and the Northeast Army will not let it go. This western Liaoning was originally the territory of the Northeast Army, and the Communist Party regards Western Liaoning as the throat of entering and exiting the Northeast.If all the territory in western Liaoning is controlled by the Kuomintang after the Battle of Western Liaoning, I am afraid that the conflicts among the three parties will be further intensified, and civil war may break out again!

"Can the mountains in western Liaoning be returned to the Communist Party?" Luo Yaoguo probed.

Hearing this question, Chiang Kai-shek couldn't help but sneered: "Brother Fuwen, don't worry about these things, I have already made a comprehensive arrangement, and the safekeeping of the mountains in western Liaoning will eventually belong to us! What you have to consider now is , With this western Liaoning base and the port of Huludao, can we take back the Northeast! Remember to firmly control the Northeast, at least Jilin Province and Liaoning Province!"

Luo Yaoguo looked at Chiang Kai-shek, and said calmly: "Mr. Jie, we can defeat just one Japanese. But the problem is that the Communist Party and the Northeast Army are in the west, and the Japanese are in the east. If they..."

Chiang Kai-shek stood up slowly, and looked at Luo Yaoguo seriously: "No matter what, no matter how much we fight against the Communist Party, everyone is always Chinese! Although we and the Communist Party are using the Japanese to weaken each other, but joining forces with the Japanese It is a taboo. Anyone who does it will stink, and it will be easy to eliminate it. The CCP will not do this kind of thing. Although the Communists are inexperienced, they are not stupid. These people are very difficult to deal with Woolen cloth!"

……

At the same time, on the front line of Chaoyang, in a ruined temple at the foot of Daxibai Mountain.There is also an in-depth discussion about the future and destiny of the Northeast.

"Four routes, 20 people! After fighting for less than three months, there are only less than 13 left! Among them, the eighth and No.17 routes have replenished a few times, and the real essence is lost. It's even worse. It's really a lesson, a lesson!"

Mao Zedong knocked on the dilapidated table, and pointed out solemnly while knocking: "Comrade Shaoqi, how is the development of the party organization in the western Liaoning base area? Is it possible to persist in the struggle when our party's armed forces are temporarily withdrawn?" go down?"

Liu Shaoqi, who had just come out of the mountain, looked a little haggard. Although the fall of the western Liaoning base had little to do with him, seeing so many comrades sacrificed and the cause of the party suffered a major setback, he was always unhappy.Hearing Mao Zedong's question, he nodded: "President, don't worry, our comrades in the western Liaoning base area have already made preparations for long-term guerrilla warfare and the struggle against Japanese imperialism to the end! Even if we fight to the last man able……"

Mao Zedong hurriedly waved his hands: "It's not with the Japanese, it's with the Kuomintang! I'm afraid the Japanese can't grow a rabbit's tail."

"What? The Kuomintang! Can they drive the Japanese out?" Liu Shaoqi looked skeptical.

Mao Zedong nodded, and counted for Liu Shaoqi with his fingers: "During this time, the Japanese were busy fighting with us, but they didn't know that they had given the Kuomintang a firm foothold in Huludao and the development and growth of the Anti-Japanese Alliance in North Manchuria. Now is our chance! The Kuomintang has Huludao Port, and it is not a big problem to support 30 million troops in western Liaoning. It should not be a problem for the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance to rely on the savings of the Northeast Army for many years to support 30 troops. They echo each other from the south to the north. Japan People can't stay in the Northeast."

"Then we..." Liu Shaoqi looked serious.

Mao Zedong shook his head and said with a sneer: "Of course we have to fight to the end...but Western Liaoning may be temporarily occupied by the Kuomintang. You must prepare the Special Committee of Western Liaoning for hard work. Remember that the key to the success or failure of our party's cause is the The second is the mobilization and mobilization of the masses of the people in party building, as long as these two tasks are done well, even if the Kuomintang has millions of troops, it will not be our opponent in the end.”

While discussing, I heard hurried footsteps outside, and then Liu Bocheng, chief of staff of the Eighth Route Army, shouted a report, and then walked in with a pile of documents: "President, Secretary Liu, three generals Zhang Xueliang, Li Jishen and Fu Zuoyi I have drawn up a battle plan, let me bring it over to you two for approval." As he spoke, he gently placed a stack of documents in front of Mao Zedong and Liu Shaoqi.

Mao Zedong stared blankly at the battle plans piled up like a hill: "Who drew up such a large pile?"

Liu Bocheng smiled wryly and said: "The details were drawn up by the staff officers of the First Division of the Kuomintang. These staff officers of the Kuomintang were all taught by the Germans. They also fight in the same way as the Germans. They pay attention to precision. When There are strict regulations on how many shells should be used to strike what target, when to bomb, when tanks charge, and when infantry attack!"

Immediately Mao Zedong waved his hand: "I don't want to read it, Comrade Bo Cheng, just tell me the key points. What tasks did they arrange for our Third Route Army and Fourth Route Army?"

Liu Bocheng took the map from another table, spread it out on the table, took out a red and blue pencil and drew two red lines on the map on the northern edge of the Liaoxi mountainous area: "President, the plan made by the staff officers of the Kuomintang army says The simple point is that the two wings outflank the middle and break through. We and the Northeast Army are responsible for the two wings. The specific arrangement is that the Fifth Route Army of the Northeast Army and our Fourth Route Army will form a single unit from the mountainous area south of Chaoyang County to the back of the Japanese army, threatening the Japanese army to retreat; Our Third Route Army is outflanking from the north flank, threatening the Japanese army to retreat. The Kuomintang army and the Jin army are responsible for attacking the Japanese army in the middle. They will use heavy artillery and planes to blast a bloody road, and then use tanks as the guide to sweep across the entire Chaoyang Basin. Inside, the Japanese army was forced to the mountains. When the Japanese army’s retreat was threatened, they would naturally retreat.”

"Oh, who is going to recover Chaoyang City? Is it going to be recovered by the Kuomintang army?" Mao Zedong asked.

Liu Bocheng took a breath, and nodded with some embarrassment.Right now, the Eighth Route Army and the Seventeenth Route Army of the Chinese Communist Party are besieged by the Japanese army in Beipiao County. If the siege is not released as soon as possible, the final result will be annihilation of the entire army!So now is not the time to care about the gains and losses of Chaoyang County with the Kuomintang.

Mao Zedong smiled wryly at Liu Shaoqi beside him, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a puff: "See? They are busy picking peaches before Chaoyang County is captured! But now we I have to ask them, so I have to pinch my nose to admit it. Comrade Shaoqi, you must arrange our underground work in western Liaoning as soon as possible. We must organize the poor and lower-middle peasants in western Liaoning, establish a peasant association, and fight against the Kuomintang reactionaries In the end, we must try to keep most of the township-level democratic regimes in the mountainous areas of western Liaoning, and not allow the Kuomintang regime to be established in the townships, then they will really gain a firm foothold in western Liaoning.”

……

"Uan, do you know what you're doing?"

After Chiang Kai-shek finished arranging the conspiracy to harm the Communist Party, he found an excuse to fly back to Wuhan, and threw the mess directly to Luo Yaoguo, including this battle plan to counterattack Chaoyang. The National Revolutionary Army led the formulation of this plan. Major General Qiu Qingquan, Chief of Staff of the Army's First Division, is now standing in front of Luo Yaoguo with an impeccable military posture.

"The Japanese army has ten divisions in western Liaoning! In addition to the three Eighth Route Army and the Seventeenth Route Army that were used to besiege Beipiao, there are as many as seven divisions. Now you have to use two divisions of our National Revolutionary Army to fight The seven divisions of the Japanese army launched an attack! Do you think you are crazy?"

Qiu Qingquan replied very seriously: "The students and the staff of the First Division Headquarters have repeatedly demonstrated that this battle plan is completely feasible. Although our army has only one infantry division on the northern front, there are two A tank battalion that can be used as a sharp knife, and as many as 14 friendly troops can cooperate with us. On the southern front, the No.5000 Division is only responsible for diversionary attacks, and we can also call on the 11nd Brigade of Heavy Artillery 48 210mm heavy howitzers. In addition, the [-]st Mountain Brigade has also arrived in Huludao, the [-]st Cavalry Brigade has also arrived one after another, and the [-]st Division of the Youth Army can cooperate in operations. I believe the offensive on the southern front will be firmly contained. The four divisions of the Japanese army."

"Brother Sihua, what do you think?" Luo Yaoguo turned his head and asked An Sihua who was on the side. The part of this battle plan about the diversionary attack on the southern front is now in An Sihua's hands, and he has read it several times. .

"It's okay. There is absolutely no problem in letting me command the southern line. But who will command the northern line? So many troops are divided into three sides, which are not under each other's control. This kind of operation is the most troublesome."

Qiu Qingquan snapped to attention, and gave a respectful military salute to Luo Yaoguo: "The students hope that the teacher can go to the front line to supervise the battle. Now that Principal Jiang has returned to Wuhan, the only one who can command the decisive battle in Chaoyang is you, the teacher."

Luo Yaoguo glared at him, and then said flatly: "Where is the former enemy headquarters? Is it safe? Whose army is in charge of guarding?"

Qiu Qingquan was taken aback when he heard the words, and he said after a while: "The advance headquarters is located on the top of West Dabai Mountain. The guards are the guards sent by the three parties. We sent the first division guard battalion. Continuously."

"Okay then, I'll take a trip and become a bodhisattva for you staff officers!" Although Luo Yaoguo's face was full of anger, he felt very relieved in his heart.The military qualities of these Kuomintang army elites who have passed through Whampoa, the mainland, and have rich troops and actual combat experience are indeed very different from those in their previous lives. Not only the plans they formulated are perfect, but they also have proactive attacks. Spirit, the latter is even more rare!

Chapter 0539 Fierce Army in Western Liaoning ([-]) Only Weapon Theory

The counterattack planned by Qiu Qingquan first started from the Liaoxi Corridor.

The No.11 Division of the National Revolutionary Army is assigned the First Brigade of Independent Heavy Artillery, which will advance eastward from the Tashan defense line east of Huludao, and launch an attack on the four Japanese divisions guarding the front line of Jinzhou!

In the early morning of December [-]th, at the forward headquarters on the top of Baitai Mountain, about two kilometers northeast of Tashan Township.General An Sihua, the former commander-in-chief of the enemy, put on a straight face and looked at the military map hanging on the wall with a sullen face. He didn't speak for a long time, and everyone looked at him intently and breathlessly.The night was dark, the wind was cold outside, and the atmosphere was chilling.

"Where is Division No. 11 now?" An Sihua finally asked.

Yan Wu, his chief of staff, pointed to the blue mark on the map without hesitation: "The 11st and 21nd infantry brigades of the No. 22 Division, under the command of the division commander Luo Zhuoying, have deployed from south to north along the Tashan line. The four regiments formed a front line and all arrived at the designated offensive positions. The infantry regiment was ready for all battles. In addition, the First Brigade of Independent Mountain Soldiers, under the command of the brigade commander Huang Hui, has also controlled the mountain areas of Guanshan and Zizishan. Covering the attacking regiment's flank."

An Sihua didn't say anything about his fluent answer. He had already been familiar with the positions of these troops. At this time, he just wanted to verify it again.This battle is really a bit crazy. A Kuomintang division plus an artillery brigade and a mountain brigade with less than 4 people actually want to attack four Japanese divisions with more than 11 Japanese troops!He continued to ask: "Where is the heavy artillery group? Has it also entered the designated position? And can the air force completely paralyze the Jinzhou Airport of the Japanese invaders before the army's offensive? In this battle, we are relying on few hits, firepower and air superiority." It's the key to winning."
