Chapter 364 Far East Adventure on
It can be said that his previous false shot did successfully deceive Li Zongren, but later, after the Japanese army's strategic attempt to attack Rehe was exposed, Li Zongren immediately asked the Wuhan political axe to contain the Central China Army with part of his troops, broke through the main force of the North China Front with the main force, and reinforced Zhang Xuewu. Battle in the tenth war zone.
However, Li Zongren's plan was not yet completed by Chiang Kai-shek's preparations for war. The time was not yet ripe and he vetoed it. Li Zongren, who found the opportunity of the decisive battle, originally wanted to give Chiang Kai-shek a foreign military order, but he never expected that Chiang Kai-shek first controlled all the supplies in the fifth war zone under the pretext of Xu Wenwei's corruption case. In addition, the elite troops in the fifth war zone of Xuzhou are all Chiang Kai-shek's Huangpu Gaozu, and Li Zongren is also weak, and the miscellaneous troops have suffered a lot of losses in the previous defensive battles. Although many troops have completed the replenishment, due to too many recruits, the combat effectiveness did not rise but decreased.
Li Zongren, who missed a great opportunity, also knew that it would be difficult for him to get a response from Zhang Xuewu's 10th war zone in the battle against the North China Front of the Japanese Army this time. Moreover, the troops of the two fronts of the Japanese Army North China and Central China have moved together, and he also realized that the main force of his North China Front Army retreated. After Manchuria, the only five remaining divisions of the North China Front Army and seven reading mixed brigades were absolutely impossible to block Zhang Xuewu's attack. Therefore, the Japanese army began to prepare to concentrate its forces in a planned secret, giving up most of the area of North China, and only sticking to a few points of the Pinghan Line, and integrating with the main force of the Central China Front Army. They echo each other from afar.
In fact, Li Zongren was also very clear that Zhang Xuewu drove all the main forces of the whole North China Front into the northeast, so the Wuhan National Political Axe was very worried that Zhang Xuewu would take the opportunity to seize North China, so he ordered Li Zongren to immediately launch a large-scale battle to ensure that the [***] main force would sweep the North China Army. Repump North China.
It is easy to sweep the Japanese army, but in fact it is not so easy for Li Zongren. [***] Although the troops are several times more than the Japanese army, there is still a big gap between the weapons and the Japanese army in general, and most of the troops are recruits. The combat effectiveness is very limited, and the command structure of the army is too much. How cumbersome it is, resulting in delays in the ordering and execution of orders. How easy is it to talk about the Japanese army that wants to encircle and anniperate the advantage of ground and air firepower? The fifth war zone is not a well-equipped tenth war zone. On top of Li Zongren, there is also the existence of Chiang Kai-shek, the supreme commander who likes to mobilize troops without saying hello.
Therefore, Li Zongren can only use the Tang Enbo Army and the Hu Zongnan Army belonging to the Fifth Theater as the Mobile Legion, and transfer the Fifth Army, the Eighth Army, the 36th Army, the 74th Army, the Eighty-first Army, the Eighty-threerd Army, the Eighty-eighth Army, the Eighty-eighth Army and the Ninety-eighth Army, and the Hundredth Army form an attack group. The Second Brigade, the Fifth Brigade and the Armored Brigade of the Artillery Corps directly under the Military Commission swept the remnants of the Japanese army in North China.
In Li Zongren's opinion, is there less so-called sweep? If the national political axe can really sympathize with the officers and soldiers of the army, it should take advantage of the previous 10th war zone to attract the main force of the Japanese army and seize the opportunity to destroy the main force of the Japanese army's field forces in North China or China.
In fact, since the Battle of Xuzhou, the performance of the Chinese [***] team has surprised the Japanese army. In particular, the persistence of the Chinese [***] team in every city has brought great trouble to the Japanese army, especially the failure of the Japanese army in two large-scale attacks on the tenth war zone of Rehe. It consumes a large amount of national strength and strategic materials, especially experienced veterans.
Li Zongren's attempt to fight was said to be clear from the moment it was launched. It can be said that the fifth war zone is definitely facing a bloody battle, but Zhang Xuewu, who is preparing for war, does not think that the national political axe can achieve its strategic purpose. The Japanese army is purely based on national strength and comprehensive strength, China It's far from my opponent. Zhang Xuewu's repeated heavy hits on the Japanese army are all with surprisingly winning tactics.
What is a surprising victory? In fact, surprising victory is synonymous with adventure. Zhang Xuewu defended head-on and then strangled the transportation line of the Japanese army with air advantage, and broke through the Japanese army with armored clusters. The consumption of this tactic was not affordable by Zhang Xuewu. The ammunition, especially the large-caliber shells, which had been stored for more than two years, were almost consumed, although However, he won, but Zhang Xuewu also lost the ability to pursue and expand the results.
Zhang Xuewu's strategic purpose is to force me to choose to go north instead of south, because only in this way can China take back its own things from the Soviet-Russian red beast, but how easy is it to force me to go north? It can be said that I am quite stubborn in terms of national strategy. The southward advance is the oil and rubber of Southeast Asia, but the premise is that the Japanese army maintains a certain stability in the battlefield in the Chinese battlefield, and the entry into Southeast Asia is bound to be the enemy of Britain, the United States, France and other countries, and the enemy of the Soviet Union and Russia will not touch the interests of the United Kingdom and the United States, and it is also the United Kingdom. What Mei Le has seen.
The most important thing is that Zhang Xuewu, with the assistance of the Soviets, has become a big problem in Japan. If Zhang Xuewu's headquarters in the tenth war zone is not solved, his main force of the army will not be able to withdraw from the Chinese battlefield, so Zhang Xuewu believes that he must be eager to reach a non-aggression neutrality with Soviet Russia. Yes, and the Soviet Russian side was also watching because of my urgency. The final result was that my surname was completely dragged out.
Zhang Xuewu, who was inspecting in Baotou, suddenly received a secret telegram intercepted by the intelligence department. After deciphering it, Zhang Xuewu was stunned with surprise and said, "Are I really crazy?" Or he really created an illusion for me, that is, to defeat and eliminate the tenth war zone, it is necessary for the Soviets to completely cut off the support to Rehe. Zhang Xuewu analyzed from his secret telegram that he said that he might be in a hurry to jump over the wall. The mad dog bites the fool and watch the bad luck of the fun!
What surprised Zhang Xuewu most was that while building the strongest defense line in the Far East in Jinzhou, he provoked Soviet Russia at the border?
In fact, it seems that I am extremely stupid. In fact, Zhang Xuewu knows that this is a very wise move. You know that my negotiations with the Soviet Union have been fruitless for a long time, so I jumped over the wall and forced the Soviets to make a decision. It is said that the empire has a formation of two million tons of surface ships with an annual output. If the production capacity of 5,000 fighters comes with all its strength, China will never be my opponent, and the Chinese people can only play the role of constantly consuming themselves.
