Chapter 311 Attacking 4 Draws

Thinking of the horror of Jie Chuan mentioned by Chen Nuo, Jing Cheng and others, Zhang Minghui secretly sweated for Jiu'er. Since Jiu'er is still alive, even if Zhang Minghui tried his best to protect Jiu'er's Zhouquan, he couldn't care less He rushed directly to Jiamusi's staff headquarters, scaring everyone he encountered to death on the spot!

Zhang Minghui didn't understand why, but only after Wang Yifei's explanation did he understand that now everyone thinks that Zhang Minghui is dead. Kill him when someone is not paying attention, otherwise Zhang Minghui is not very confident that he can kill this terrible opponent!

Zhang Minghui thought that if Jiu'er really went to Jie Chuan for revenge, he would definitely go to Siping. Wang Yifei immediately ordered his brothers along the way to stop Jiu'er and notify Zhang Minghui immediately!

Zhang Minghui wanted to pick up Jiu'er in person and explain clearly, but there are more important things to do at present, which is to take the opportunity to kill Jie Chuan, and immediately ask Wang Yifei about the changes in the entire national situation and the entire battle situation during the time he was unconscious!

After the Battle of Wuhan, Japan divided the tasks of the Japanese troops stationed in China and ruled by division.The 11th Group Army stationed in Wuhan has actually become the only force that conducts field attacks on China. It has formed a confrontation with the main force of the Chinese government guarding the southwestern rear in Hunan and its surrounding Jiangxi and Guangxi regions, and is constantly looking for opportunities to attack. Attempts to use military strikes to cooperate with the Japanese government's political strategy to force the Chongqing Nationalist Government to surrender.Since then, several large-scale battles have been fought in this area.The Japanese army adopted the policy of taking offense as defense, preemptive strikes, and defeating each one.The Battle of Nanchang bears the brunt.

On February 1939, 2, the Japanese "Central China Dispatch Army" issued the "Essentials for Combat against Nanchang" to the 6th Army, which stated: "The purpose of capturing Nanchang is to cut off the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Railway and cut off the Anhui and Zhejiang provinces in the south of the Yangtze River. "The main contact line"; "The 11th Army should break through the enemy's position with a sudden attack from the current confrontation, capture Nanchang along the Nanxun line in one fell swoop, divide and crush the enemies along the Zhejiang-Jiangxi line. advance in one direction to make it beneficial for the main force to fight”; “after capturing the vicinity of Nanchang, the key line to the south of the place should be ensured immediately.” The "Central China Dispatch Army" also agreed with the "Chinese Fleet" on a coordinated combat plan, and ordered the 11th Division in Hubei and the 16nd Division in Hangzhou to attack Hanshui and Qiantang Rivers before starting the Nanchang operation. Take several actions to divert and confuse the squadron.The Nanchang combat time is set for the first ten days of March, and the attack time will be determined by the 22th Army Command.

On February 2, the 9th Army agreed with the Aviation Corps and the Navy's 11nd Joint Air Force to agree on a coordinated combat plan.In order to ensure the success of the attack, Okamura Ningji sent the combat chief staff several times during the preparation period to observe the terrain, the defense system of the defenders, the status of the fortifications, the deployment of troops, and the location of heavy weapons, etc. points and routes of advance, and the main direction of assault.In order to increase the strength and speed of the attack, Neiji Okamura changed the previous method of dividing the field heavy artillery and tanks into divisions and regiments, and changed them to centralized use and unified command by the army when crossing the Xiushui. The vehicles are distributed in the infantry battle formation to go straight forward, cover and guide the traditional tactics of the infantry attack. The tanks are organized into a tank group, and at a distance of 2 days in front of the frontline troops, with the support of aviation, they will conduct long-distance detours and breakthroughs. Defend the defense line and clear the way for the troops.The artillery was commanded by Sumida Laishiro, commander of the 2th Brigade of Field Heavy Artillery, and had more than 6 artillery pieces of various types.The chariot was commanded by Hiroyoshi Ishii, captain of the 300th Chariot Battalion, with a total of 5 tanks and armored vehicles.

In mid-February, the 2st Division, the 101th Division and the attached artillery began to assemble to the south of De'an, and the tanks assembled in the north of De'an.In the second ten days of the month, the 106th Division began to move towards Ruoxi and Wuning, the Inoue Detachment began to open up the Poyang Lake waterway, and the 6th and 16th Divisions began to feint on the left bank of the Hanshui River in Anlu, Hubei and the northern section of the Yuehan Road.The 9th Army was originally scheduled to launch an attack on March 11, "Army Memorial Day", but it has been raining for more than a month since mid-February. The river flooded and the roads were difficult, which delayed the preparation time.It was not until March 3 that the 10th Army determined that the start of operations would be March 2.

Due to the failure of the Northeast battlefield and the death of Zhang Minghui, Okamura Ningji no longer paid too much attention to the offensive capabilities of the Northeast Maoer Mountains, and has greatly focused on the south!It also led to the outbreak of the Battle of Nanchang!

On the Kuomintang side, nearly 1938 divisions were still deployed around Wuhan after the Chinese Communist Party withdrew from Wuhan in a planned manner in late October 10.To the west and north of Wuhan, there are 90 group armies, 6 armies, 13 infantry divisions, 34 cavalry division, and 1 cavalry brigade in the fifth theater of Li Zongren's command, deployed in the vast areas of western Anhui, southern Henan, southern Hubei, and northwestern Hubei; To the south and east of Wuhan are 1 infantry divisions of 8 group armies, 21 armies, and 52 infantry divisions in the ninth theater of Xue Yue's command, deployed in the key areas of northwest Jiangxi, southern Hubei, and Hunan.In addition, there are several special forces and local guerrilla forces in the two theaters.The above troops formed a siege situation on Wuhan.To the east of the Ninth Theater, there are 4 group armies, 22 infantry divisions and 2 infantry brigades in the Third Theater of Gu Zhutong's headquarters, which can support each other with the Ninth Theater.

The battle was about to break out, and Chiang Kai-shek repeatedly stated verbally that "we will no longer compete with the enemy for one point and one line", "Our army's combat strategy is to consume the enemy instead of being consumed by the enemy, avoiding the real and attacking the weak, and creating the purpose of a protracted war of resistance", etc. However, in the counter-offensive against Nanchang, when the surprise attack was unsuccessful and a positional battle against a strong enemy was formed, regardless of the actual situation on the battlefield, the order was still limited to capture Nanchang before May 5, so that not only Nanchang had not yet It can be conquered according to its subjective wishes, and the troops have suffered a large number of unnecessary casualties.

In addition, when the Japanese army prepared for artillery fire before forcibly crossing Xiushui, they used all the artillery capable of firing gas bombs for a surprise attack. Only in the last 19 minutes from 20:30 to 10:3000, more than 12 gas bombs were fired.Immediately afterwards, the Japanese field gas team released 15000 medium-sized gas canisters on the front of the 101-kilometer offensive (including 5000 on the front of the 106st Division and 10000 on the front of the 2th Division). The depth of [-] kilometers in the center was completely shrouded in poisonous gas, and the defenders suffered heavy casualties!

Although the Battle of Nanchang ended in China's defeat, the Battle of Nanchang also brought profound experience and lessons to future operations.The spirit of Chinese officers and soldiers who are not afraid of sacrifice and fighting to the death reflects the high will to resist Japan.Although the counterattack against Nanchang was unsuccessful, the active counteroffensive revealed a certain aggressiveness in the strategic command of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government.At the same time, it also exposed the disadvantages of the Kuomintang army's strategy and tactics in the war of resistance: blindly fighting regular warfare, simple front defense lacking in-depth positional warfare, and underestimating mobile warfare and guerrilla warfare.

Wang Yifei spent a long time explaining the battle of Nanchang to Zhang Minghui. The purpose was to remind Zhang Minghui that because the little devil was eager to make meritorious service, the battle line had been stretched very long, and the troops were not sufficient. He could only focus on defense and enemy firepower If the place of contact is inside the ruled area, there will definitely not be many troops!

Zhang Minghui also understood what Wang Yifei meant. Leading the special forces to open the way and let the troops enter the hinterland of the little devil would definitely play a big role, but Zhang Minghui politely refused. After the encirclement and suppression of Maoershan, there have been heavy casualties, and the troops need to rest , and Zhang Minghui already has plans to attack Siping. If the Kuomintang does not attack and let Zhang Minghui fight all of them, Zhang Minghui will be the first one to be wiped out by the little devil!

Besides, what Zhang Minghui was most worried about now was Jiu'er. After knowing the news of Jiu'er's death, Zhang Minghui was heartbroken. As long as he gave the order, he would go and explain to Jiu'er himself!
