Bright Sword Military System

Chapter 1236
The problem of the transport aircraft was basically solved in this way. 2 Tachikawa transport aircraft seized from the Puppet Peace and Founding Army before, plus 23 L2D transport aircraft, a total of 25.

They travel between the Iron Works Airport and Datong Airport, which is enough for the ammunition supply of the Independent Regiment.

It's just that there may still be problems with the supply during wartime. After all, the consumption of bullets during wartime is different. At the same time, the transport plane has to face the interception of Devil fighter planes and the threat of enemy ground anti-aircraft artillery, and the pressure from all aspects will increase.

However, this problem does not seem to be a big problem. If it is not possible, let the "Pull 5" fighter jets transport... To a certain extent, the "Pull 5" transports ammunition, although it has a small carrying capacity, it is safer.

Because the maximum flight speed of the L2D transport aircraft is only more than 200 kilometers per hour, the pilots are easily overtaken by the devils "Zero War" on the way, and they must be escorted by "La 5" during transportation.

The "Pull 5" transportation is different, and the threat can be ignored if the speed exceeds the "Zero War".

Therefore, it can be said that both have their own advantages and disadvantages. It depends on whether the devils have the ability to compete with the Eighth Route Army for air supremacy.

Just as Wang Xuexin arranged for the ground crew to fly to the university, Chen Songyong came up to report: "Head, the situation has changed!"

Chen Songyong reported while handing over the telegram: "The devils have stopped attacking on the front line of Luliang Mountain, and the fighting in the direction of Yuncheng has also slowed down!"

This was within Wang Xuexin's expectation.

If Datong is lost, the supply of the Devils on the front line of Luliang Mountain cannot be guaranteed... To be exact, it is not impossible to guarantee, but difficult to guarantee.

Because the supplies could have been transported to the frontline troops of the Devils via the Tongpu Line, a railway line that runs vertically through the entire Shanxi Province. At this time, they can only detour from the direction of Beiping and SJZ, and then transport them back after arriving in Yuncheng. This is not only an increase in distance. problems, as well as the inability to arrange the number of trains and the problem of low transportation efficiency.

Lacking supplies, the devil's plan to attack across the board at Luliang Mountain, especially Yuncheng, will definitely not go smoothly.

It can be said that Wang Xuexin came to make a move, so that the devils had to give up their plan to attack the Eighth Route Army.

Another brilliance of attacking Datong is that it will hardly affect the supply line of the devils fighting in the direction of the recalcitrant army.

The supply line of the devils to the direction of the recalcitrant army mainly passes through Beiping to the south, and Datong has little influence on it.

If there is any impact, it is that the straight-line distance between Datong and Beiping is only about 300 kilometers, which happens to be within the combat radius of "La 5".

In other words, as long as the Eighth Route Army is willing to concentrate the "La 5" at Datong Airport, it can immediately bomb the railway lines around Beiping and cut them off.

But Wang Xuexin would definitely not do such a stupid thing.

Isn't this a fight to lure all the devils to the Eighth Route Army, while the recalcitrant army can sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight?
Regarding this issue, Wang Xuexin thinks this way: this line of communication cannot be completely opened up, nor can it be completely closed.Fight when necessary, such as when the stubborn army is about to be overwhelmed.At other times, it should be let go, such as when the devil's supplies are about to run out.

Only in this way can the devils and the recalcitrant army fight so hard that they can't stop fighting each other. In history, the devils and the recalcitrant army fought for 8 months. Now it is best to fight for a year or even longer...

During this period, Wang Xuexin believed that the devil must have thought about giving up.

Because the Eighth Route Army had already reached Datong, the backyard was on fire, so I had to turn back to help.

However... once the devils give up the frontal battlefield, months of war preparations and the manpower and material resources invested in the battle will all be in vain.

What's more serious is that if you give up the frontal battlefield and give up the communication line between the north and the south of China, what is the talk of occupying the entire territory of China, talking about annihilating the Chinese army, and talking about using China as a base to fight Yingjiang?

This abandonment means that the devil has to go back and face Ying Jiang again!
Therefore, Wang Xuexin believed that the devils would not give up their attack on the recalcitrant army until the last moment, and the devils would hope to mobilize troops to solve the problem of Datong while ensuring a frontal battle.

Wang Xuexin guessed right.

Neiji Okamura once hesitated when the Eighth Route Army occupied Datong.

He didn't just lose confidence after losing a few battles. He thought far ahead: If the Empire can't even deal with the Eighth Route Army, not only can't deal with it, but also allows them to basically control the air supremacy and hit Datong, then how to complete the complete annihilation The plan of the Huaxia army to occupy its entire territory?

If this plan is doomed to fail, what's the point of fighting against the recalcitrant army now?
It should be said that Neiji Okamura sees it quite clearly. This is related to his intelligence work and command operations in China for so many years. He knows China very well, so he is very pessimistic about the goals to be achieved in the "No. [-]" combat plan. It has been that way from the beginning.

However, he knew it was useless, and Tokyo didn't know it.

Thinking about it, Neiji Okamura believes that the most important thing in front of him is to take back Datong, otherwise, it will be stuck in the throat like a fishbone and make the imperial army very uncomfortable.

Neiji Okamura considered for a while, and then ordered: "Order the 110th Division to withdraw from Luliang Mountain and go to Datong immediately!"

Neiji Okamura thought this way. Although the Eighth Route Army's occupation of Datong was a failure for the empire, it was not a bad thing.

In the past, the Eighth Route Army could hide in the defense line and rely on favorable terrain to defend. Even if there were two gaps, the imperial army would often be unable to penetrate because the supply would be cut off.

Now, the Eighth Route Army came out from the defense line and occupied Datong... This made the Eighth Route Army's supply line as long as more than 300 kilometers.

This more than 300 kilometers, the Eighth Route Army can be stationed along the line?
It's best.

So, as long as the imperial army operates from this supply line, can it attack the main force of the Eighth Route Army stationed along the way?
Isn't this much simpler than attacking its defenses?
Yoshio Shinozuka was a little worried after hearing this order. He asked, "Your Excellency, if the 110th Division is transferred to the northern line to attack Datong, then the Luliang Mountain defense line will be very empty. In this way..."

Neiji Okamura's approach is actually tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall.

The west wall has been filled, but what about the vacancy in the east wall?Won't the Eighth Route Army take advantage of it?
However, Neiji Okamura had already planned for this. He said: "Shrink the line of defense, give up some control areas of the assault department, straighten the line of defense, and retreat to the plains to garrison!"

Shinozuka Yoshio was stunned for a moment, then replied "Yes!" and went down to deploy.

Shinozuka Yoshida sighed secretly before delivering the order. This is the first time that the imperial army has abandoned the quasi-security area on a large scale.

This is a kind of helplessness, obviously also a kind of failure.

But now this is the only way to solve the immediate crisis.
