Bright Sword Military System
Chapter 1732
In fact, Umezu Yoshijiro was able to get the front-line information after eight hours, and it was the result of Wang Xuexin's intentional release... Wang Xuexin took back the monk's reconnaissance brigade.
Otherwise, when the main force of the Eighth Route Army attacked the position of the reconnaissance brigade, the helicopters of the reconnaissance brigade could continue to advance layer by layer and continue to block information.
After all, the road to Tonghua and even beyond is the mountainous area of Changbai Mountains. Helicopters have unparalleled advantages in such terrain...Helicopters are very safe to fly over the mountains. It is basically impossible for the devils to deploy anti-aircraft machine guns and Anti-aircraft guns, deploying these equipment and troops at high altitudes, the problem of supply alone cannot be solved.
More importantly, this was once the hinterland of the devils. Changbai Mountain was flanked by sticks on one side and the "Puppet Manchukuo" on the other. There was no need for the devils to deploy anti-aircraft firepower in this area.
In this area, the infantry needs to cross the mountains to reach the important points on the top of the mountain, and it only takes a few minutes for the helicopter to arrive. Therefore, the reconnaissance team can always occupy the important points before the enemy and block the devil's throat to block information.
But Wang Xuexin did not do so.
Not only the reconnaissance brigade, but also other units such as the independent battalion, signal jammers, etc. were all withdrawn in one go.
Chen Songyong also expressed his incomprehension. He anxiously asked Wang Xuexin on the phone: "Regimental Commander, our army is now in sight of victory. It has advanced more than [-] kilometers in just one night. At this speed, we can fight in the sky for another eight hours. The black queen will almost be able to occupy Tonghua! If we withdraw the independent battalion at this time, I am afraid that our success will fall short!"
What Chen Songyong said is correct, this is indeed likely to fall short.
A large part of the reason why the Baizhan Brigade's offensive was so fast was the coordination of the independent battalion: the devils whose information was blocked had no idea what was happening on the front line, so there were no reinforcements and no emergency line of defense. It was only when I saw the tanks of the Hundred Battles Brigade that I exclaimed that the Eighth Route Army had reached this place, and then hurriedly organized defenses.
If the Independent Battalion is withdrawn, it means that there will be no information blockade, no signal interference, and no night-combat ability of night vision goggles.
So the devils realized the danger of Tonghua immediately, and then immediately sent a large number of reinforcements to Tonghua to urgently dispatch the gas bombs.
As expected, Meizu Meijiro turned pale with shock when he learned that the Eighth Route Army had reached Qinggoumen Village.
"Why did you report it now?" Umezu Yoshijiro walked to the map to find the location of Qinggoumen Village, and found that it was only 46 kilometers away from Tonghua. His face couldn't help but change again and again.
At this time, he did not dare to hesitate at all, and immediately ordered: "Order the Tonghua garrison to go out of the city immediately to organize defense! Mobilize troops to reinforce Tonghua immediately!"
Tonghua is the vital gate of the Imperial Kwantung Army, and it is an important node for the connection between hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Army and Bangzi. The occupation of this place by the Eighth Route Army almost means that the empire's supply lines are completely cut off, and Umezu Yoshijiro is of course saved.
However, this is precisely the reason why Wang Xuexin had some scruples and withdrew from the independent camp.
Wang Xuexin didn't answer Chen Songyong's question, he just ordered: "Follow the order and retreat!"
"Yes!" Chen Songyong replied helplessly.
When Chen Songyong was wondering, he received a telegram from Wang Xuexin: "The troops are secretly transferred to Siping!"
So Chen Songyong understood that Wang Xuexin's goal was Siping.
Wang Xuexin's goal has always been Siping.
It's not that Tonghua cannot be fought, it is indeed a strategically important place, and it can indeed surround the Devil's Kwantung Army, which is more conducive to the Eighth Route Army's encirclement and annihilation of the Kwantung Army.
However, Wang Xuexin had to consider the price to pay for such a fight.
First of all, there is the issue of "surrounding the three in one".
Surrounding, especially encircling the enemy's large corps, it is taboo to surround them to death.
The reason is that once the enemy is surrounded to death, it is easy to arouse the enemy's mortal desire, so there will be a "fight of trapped beasts".
The war between Hans and Maoxiong may be an exception... Maoxiong surrendered on a large scale when he was surrounded by Hans, but on the one hand, this was related to Maoxiong’s own cleansing that shook the morale of the army. On the other hand, surrendering in the European battlefield is very normal Well, it has something to do with culture.
Now the Eighth Route Army is surrounded by devils. Asian countries pay attention to "it is better to smash the jade than to be whole." The devils are going to extreme madness under the brainwashing of the so-called "Bushido" spirit. In addition, there are hundreds of thousands of "pioneering regiments" of devils who are besieged to death. Instead of fighting to the death, what price will the Eighth Route Army have to pay?
But that's not the point.
If we really want to fight, Wang Xuexin believes that with the Eighth Route Army's current combat effectiveness and the current situation in Northeast China, the Eighth Route Army can still fight this battle of encirclement and annihilation.
The more important issue is that the battlefield is in the Northeast, and the people in the Northeast are still in the hands of the devils.
If the Eighth Route Army besieged the devils and deprived them of supplies, the people in the Northeast would be the first to suffer.
It's not hard to imagine that the devils will double their search for the common people. Even if they want to starve to death, they will starve the common people to death first, and then it will be the turn of the devils.
What's even more frightening is that if the devils are panicked or they think there is no hope of victory, they will turn their butcher knives on the unarmed civilians, and even push the civilians to the point of guns to charge towards the Eighth Route Army... What will the Eighth Route Army do then?
There is nothing the devils can't do. If they find that they can't survive, they will definitely not let the Chinese people feel better.
Even if the Eighth Route Army can win in the end, how many Chinese people will die under the devil's butcher's knife?
But if an exit is given up, that is, the transportation channel from Tonghua to Bangzi can also be regarded as a gap for escape, and the devils will be more restrained in this respect.
The purpose of Wang Xuexin's fighting and closing in the direction of Tonghua is to let Yoshijiro Umezu transfer all his main forces to the direction of Tonghua to intercept the Baizhan Brigade, and Siping is naturally empty of troops.
As for the devil's poison gas blockade, just let the independent battalion do it again.
But this time, it was no longer the Hundred Battles Brigade that cooperated with the Independent Battalion, but the three mechanized regiments that had reunited.
Judging from the information that came later, Umezu Yoshijiro was indeed in the trap. Most of the troops originally deployed in Siping were urgently transferred to Tonghua, leaving only one division to garrison.
That is to say, when the devils were dispatching troops to Tonghua on a large scale, the Eighth Route Army was dispatching troops to Siping on a large scale.
This can be said to be ironic.
From the beginning, Umezu Yoshijiro doubted whether Wang Xuexin's attack on Tonghua was a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain. Usually, this strategy is difficult to succeed at this time, because he already has preconceived precautions.
But when the battle came to a critical moment and Tonghua was still the place to save, Umezu Yoshijiro still lost his position and made the wrong choice.
Otherwise, when the main force of the Eighth Route Army attacked the position of the reconnaissance brigade, the helicopters of the reconnaissance brigade could continue to advance layer by layer and continue to block information.
After all, the road to Tonghua and even beyond is the mountainous area of Changbai Mountains.
