Chapter 279 Luo Jing meets the chief, Chen Ziyun’s suggestion shocks everyone
The Japanese army has a very strong intelligence agency, and they will set up spy agencies everywhere to obtain relevant information.
Here in the Jinsui Army, the little devils have their own intelligence personnel, and the Jinsui Army cannot hide many things from them.
Chu Yunfei's troops were expanded into the Glory First Division, and the Japanese army already knew about it.
They even knew that the 1st Glory Division was stationed in Pucheng, a position that could directly threaten Pingyang City.
Later, Yan Laoxi specially transferred him to Xiangning City in order to show his goodwill.
At present, the Glory First Division is still kept secret in Xiangning City. The little devil doesn't know about it for the time being. He only knows that they are near Jicheng.
"Before the battle, the 27th Division followed the army headquarters to Pingyang City to assume the defense tasks here and also served as the general reserve team for the battle."
"The main force of the independent mixed third brigade, the special garrison, and the First Division of the Imperial Army are responsible for the defense as far away as Yuanping City."
"The independent mixed ninth brigade, part of the 16th brigade will assist in the defense, and part of the independent mixed eighth brigade will be deployed to assist in the defense."
"The intelligence agency continues to carry out operations and must find the location of the Glory First Division."
Chen Ziyun looked at the markings on the map with a thoughtful expression on his face.
Secretary Xu came over and spoke directly.
But the little devils have already completed combat reconnaissance, and they will quickly attack the command organization and cut off the communication between the defenders.
"Commander, I suggest you abandon Zhongtiao Mountain and retreat to the south bank of the Yellow River with all your strength to consolidate the river defense positions and prevent the Japanese troops from crossing the river south."
In addition to these troops, the 43rd Army of the Jinsui Army was stationed in the Shunwangping area in the east of Zhongtiao Mountain.
However, they can also guess that this is definitely related to the battle at Zhongtiao Mountain.
He Jingzhi returned the greeting and said with a smile.
At the same time, the 41st Division and the independent mixed 9th Brigade were responsible for advancing through the middle, cutting off the connection between the 5th and 14th Group Armies.
Secretary Xu next to Yan Laoxi appeared, and he came to Chen Ziyun with a smile.
The phone call from the division headquarters came directly, and Chu Yunfei asked Chen Ziyun to report to the division headquarters immediately.
When I arrived at the division headquarters, I just met Chu Yunfei and didn't even have time to speak.
This time they gathered an absolutely superior force and adopted the strategy of cutting in the middle, inserting on both sides, double encirclement, and annihilating one by one.
Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun were still accompanied by a small number of guards.
But he couldn't refuse He Jingzhi's order.
At the same time, they also used their free time to continuously conduct combat simulations.
Up to now, Yan Laoxi has put in a lot of effort to form the Glory First Division.
At around eleven o'clock in the evening, Chen Ziyun and Chu Yunfei came to Yan Laoxi's cave dwelling again.
Although Chu Yunfei didn't say anything about it, it was obvious that he was leaving the army after handing over the work.
The system rewarded Chen Ziyun with the right to use the drone five times, which Chen Ziyun cherished very much.
Moreover, they were also deceived. The total strength of the Japanese and puppet troops gathered to participate in the battle was not weaker than the defenders of Zhongtiao Mountain.
"Commander Chu and Commander Chen, you fought during your promotion to high-ranking officials and achieved amazing results."
The two people kept discussing this matter along the way, until the evening of April 12th, when they arrived in Luojing.
He pulled Chu Yunfei and stood up in a hurry, vowing to make a promise.
"The third point is to adopt mobile tactics, change internal operations to external operations, and disintegrate the Japanese attacking troops."
"Ziyun can also go to the artillery headquarters and serve as chief of staff first. Later, he can serve as deputy commander of artillery or even commander of artillery."
Chen Ziyun and Chu Yunfei gave detailed answers and reported very carefully, down to each company.
"After repeated analysis by the commander's combat military order department and the theater commander's department."
"Chu Yunfei was born in Huangpu, and Chen Ziyun was born in the Army Artillery College."
Not long after, Chen Ziyun saw Guo Jiqiao walking over accompanied by an officer wearing three general stars.
The focus of their attack is on the west side, where there are the 36th Division, the 37th Division, and the 16th Brigade.
"The second point is to take the lead in attacking before the Japanese army has completed its assembly to defeat the Japanese offensive."
Immediately afterwards, he handed a telegram directly to Chu Yunfei, while he continued to drink tea.
"Master Chu, Commander Chen, this is Commander He. This time you are here, Commander He personally gave instructions."
Now that He Jingzhi, who was in charge of operations, was in front of him, Chen Ziyun decided to try to avoid a disastrous defeat.
When He Jingzhi asked Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun to leave for Luojing immediately, Yan Laoxi was somewhat reluctant.
Zhongtiao Mountain is hundreds of kilometers long from east to west, the widest from north to south is only fifty kilometers, and the narrowest point is only ten kilometers.
Immediately afterwards, he stretched out his right hand and shook hands with Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun successively.
The importance of Zhongtiao Mountain is self-evident, and how to deal with the next battle has become the focus of their discussion.
For many troops, a company of eighty or ninety people is considered good.
"The first point is that the defenders of Zhongtiao Mountain quickly withdrew southward and abandoned the Zhongtiao Mountain position to consolidate the defense line on the south bank of the Yellow River."
Of course, the 43rd Army was temporarily placed under the command of the First Theater Command after the battle, but they did not obey orders at all.
The little devils fought against Zhongtiao Mountain and learned lessons from their previous defeats.
During combat, the Japs will also use poison gas bombs in order to quickly complete combat deployment.
The Japs attacked several times, all from north to south.
Chen Ziyun was a man of two generations, so he didn't know what Yan Laoxi was thinking.
Chief of Staff Guo Jiqiao pointed to the map and began to introduce the response strategies summarized by the Chief of Staff based on various aspects.
Yan Laoxi looked at Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun carefully, and after thinking for a long time, he nodded.
The attacking troops on the east and west sides will also quickly intersect to seize the Yellow River ferry and cut off the retreat path of the Zhongtiao Mountain defenders.
He was reluctant to use it in the previous battles.
When they arrived in Luojing, they were greeted personally by the theater chief of staff Guo Jiqiao.
Of course, judging from the position of the 24th Army, it is difficult for them to advance to the battlefield for support and can only carry out support operations on the periphery.
Each department's front-line defensive operations would collapse as soon as the Japanese army broke through at one point.
The two people hurriedly expressed their humility and said that they were not qualified.
After arranging these things, Chen Ziyun immediately set off for the division headquarters.
At the same time, they will quickly launch a blockade to prevent the troops on the south bank from crossing the river to support them.
After a while of pleasantries, He Jingzhi pointed to the location of Zhongtiao Mountain on the map and began to introduce the situation.
But now he did not hesitate. He fully used the rights to use drones on both sides of the area south of the Fen River for reconnaissance.
"In the future, you will be able to serve as military commanders and commander-in-chief of group armies."
Chen Ziyun called in the regimental attaché Liang Guoping, battalion commander Zhou Wenbo, and Li Yang to quickly hand over the situation.
Therefore, Chu Yunfei proposed a strategy of using the main force to attack frontally and the elite troops to clamp down on both sides to disrupt the Japanese offensive.
It is now 41 years, counting from 37 years, it is already the fourth year.
After getting in the car, Chen Ziyun closed his eyes and slept again.
To the east of Taihang Mountain, at the junction of Hebei Province and Yu Province, there are also troops of the 24th Group Army (temporarily designated as the Fifth Army, 40th Army).
Yan Laoxi said a lot. He held the tea cup and slowly took a sip of tea.
Different from Yan Laoxi's style, Guo Jiqiao asked Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun to rest first.
This means that the defenders of Zhongtiao Mountain do not have enough defense depth and are completely one-line defense.
"Captain Chen, Commander Yan specially sent me here to personally welcome you and Commander Chu to the commander's headquarters."
To the east here, the 21st Division and the 35th Division will attack from the northern Henan area on the east side of the 14th Group Army.
Chu Yunfei took the message and opened it to check, only to find that it was from the First War Zone Commander's Department.
Yan Laoxi looked at Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun in front of him, his face full of emotion and said.
In early April, Xiangning City, here is the headquarters of the Glory First Division.
Chu Yunfei glanced at Chen Ziyun beside him, and then took the lead in answering.
As for the 43rd Army, this is the Shanxi-Sui Army unit. Yan Laoxi deployed them here for the same purpose as the original 48th Independent Brigade stationed in Lancheng and other areas.
Chu Yunfei contacted Chen Ziyun and Fang Ligong one after another to arrange troops for training.
No matter how you fight, you are destined to lose, it's just that the degree of disastrousness varies.
"Only four Japanese major generals were killed by you, and there were 20,000 to 30,000 troops annihilated by you."
For example, the 21st Division and the 35th Division attacked in the northern Henan area. They also had three divisions of the Royal Association Army with more than 20,000 troops to assist in the operation.
In the following time, the little Japanese troops actively made preparations.
Chen Ziyun was even more busy day and night. He led Zhou Wenbo, Li Yang and other officers from the artillery regiment to continuously go out to conduct investigations.
However, after repeated analysis, the First War Zone Commander directly determined that the Japs were going to take action against Zhongtiao Mountain.
Each company under some troops has only forty or fifty people, which is completely a platoon organization!
Therefore, it can be said that these eight armies have 160,000 people, but in fact they can have 120,000 or 30,000 people, which is considered good.
They are divided into east and west areas for defense, with a total strength of about 160,000.
"If you were in the direct army, the committee would like to make you the army commander and the commander-in-chief of the group army."
The 27th Army is the direct line unit of the Principal of the Capital. It has relatively good overall weapons and equipment, and has more than 20,000 people in the entire army.
In addition, the Japs built strongholds and fortifications on the main route to Zhongtiao Mountain in order to be ready to block their support of Zhongtiao Mountain.
To the north of them, the 33rd Division and the 4th Cavalry Brigade cooperated with the 41st Division and other troops to attack.
"The designation of the Glory First Division was approved by me personally. I hope you can remember at all times that you are the Jinsui Army and the glory of the Three Jins."
This division has more than 10,000 troops, and its combat effectiveness far exceeds that of many military-level troops in the Jinsui Army.
"Even the commissioner keeps praising you, saying that you are his most outstanding students, but it is a pity that you are in the Jinsui Army."
However, He Jingzhi not only asked them to participate together, but also asked them to go to Luojing in advance. This matter was obviously a bit strange.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Guo Jiqiao personally accompanied them to dinner and left directly.
"Hi, Your Excellency, Commander." Huatani immediately agreed.
Of course, the first theater commander's department and the second theater commander's department are at the same level, so they cannot command each other.
Not to mention Chen Ziyun, even Chu Yunfei is not qualified enough.
"My dear fellows, you have done well in a series of battles in Jin Province."
"If there is no need on the front line, Yunfei can completely serve as deputy army commander to gain experience, and then be directly promoted to army commander."
Chen Ziyun was not too surprised. He was familiar with this and got on the bus directly.
Therefore, he has made arrangements that some officers above the military level will be transferred from the Second War Zone to participate in the combat meeting in Luojing on April 18th.
He Jingzhi looked at Chu Yunfei, Chen Ziyun looked over and said directly.
"In this Zhongtiao Mountain battle, we must not let them affect our battle."
Yan Laoxi could ignore Wei Junru's message, but He Jingzhi must give him the face he deserves.
The commander of the First Army, Yoshio Shinozuka, had a serious expression on his face and immediately issued a combat order.
Responsible for the defense on the east side is the 14th Army Group (15th Army, 93rd Army, and 98th Army), and there is also the Ninth Army directly under the theater.
Yan Laoxi warmly greeted them to continue sitting on the goose feather bedding, and asked cordially about the situation of the Glory First Division.
"We called you here this time. We want to listen to your suggestions on how we should respond to this Japanese attack."
"In the future, the Jinsui Army will still have to rely on young people like you."
"Commander, this is Chu Yunfei, commander of the Glory First Division, and Chen Ziyun, commander of the infantry artillery of the Glory First Division."
Not to mention small and medium-scale battles, large-scale battles have been fought more than a dozen times.
The meaning is obvious, it is to draw these two disciples of the Emperor to join the first battle zone camp.
"I have heard of you as early as in the capital."
At six o'clock the next day, there was a vehicle waiting outside.
This is the bridgehead in southeastern Shanxi established by Yan Laoxi. He plans to use the 43rd Army as the basis to gradually expand the influence of the Shanxi-Sui Army in the southeastern Shanxi region.
The current situation in Zhongtiao Mountain has reached a point where even gods cannot save it.
Chen Ziyun and Chu Yunfei stayed in Kenanpo overnight. After dawn, they set off immediately, began to cross the Yellow River, and went directly to the First War Zone Commander's Headquarters.
He examined the terrain in detail and measured relevant data so that he could set up the artillery firing grid!
However, the conditions here in Zhongtiao Mountain are difficult, and it has become acquiescence to pay empty wages.
Judging from the deployment of troops on both sides, if the defenders of Zhongtiao Mountain were to defend themselves comprehensively, they would still have the strength to fight.
As for the Glory First Division, it is naturally managed by Deputy Division Commander Hao Shiwen and Chief of Staff Fang Ligong.
Therefore, the little devils are fully prepared for this battle, and they are sure to win.
Currently here in Zhongtiao Mountain, the Fifth Army (Third Army, 14th Army, 17th Army) is responsible for the defense on the west, and there is also the 80th Army directly under the theater.
During the winter offensive at the end of 1939, his troops achieved certain results, capturing three or four towns at one time and approaching Luzhou City, an important town in southeastern Shanxi!
So up to now, the little devils have gathered a certain number of troops and are the first to attack them, forcing their troops to stay away from Zhongtiao Mountain.
According to He Jingzhi's content, those who attended the meeting were all at military level or above.
At the same time, at the back of the message, Yan Laoxi was asked to dispatch Commander Chu Yunfei of the Glory First Division and Infantry Artillery Commander Chen Ziyun to immediately leave for Luojing.
Not long after the battle started, the 43rd Army quickly withdrew from the battlefield.
His suggestion was obviously to use the second and third strategies to deal with the little devil's attack.
The two sides continued to talk for a full twenty minutes.
After the two people washed up, they took the car directly to the chief's headquarters without even eating breakfast.
As for the content of the message, I asked Yan Laoxi to make arrangements for officers above the Second Theater Army to go to Luojing in western Henan to attend a meeting on the 18th of this month.
A large number of troops began to mobilize and they began to assemble towards the designated area.
The radio and telephone are also busy.
Then he took Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun directly to the map.
Then the 41st Division and the 9th Brigade will assist the 36th Division and other units to carry out a double encirclement of the Fifth Group Army and take the lead in encircling and annihilating it.
Chen Ziyun and Chu Yunfei stood at attention and immediately saluted.
Until now, no one has realized the seriousness of this battle.
"It's just that we need you on the front line. The Glory First Division will definitely not be able to do without you."
After Guo Jiqiao came over, he directly introduced both parties.
This general is short, wearing glasses, and elegant. He is none other than the famous He Jingzhi!
There are people discussing around the map and sand table.
At the same time, he asked Chen Ziyun to take over the work of the artillery regiment!
So he deliberately met with Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun first to see their attitudes.
Of course, these little Japanese troops mentioned above will be assisted by a certain number of puppet troops.
In other words, the main defense forces in Zhongtiao Mountain are only eight armies.
He Jingzhi and Guo Jiqiao nodded after hearing this, and then looked directly at Chen Ziyun.
"Based on the situation between the enemy and ourselves, we have summarized three response strategies."
And there will be a large number of aviation troops to assist in the battle, followed by infiltration troops and airborne troops.
If such troops were pulled away, Yan Laoxi would definitely not be able to accept it.
Although the Japanese army kept making smoke bombs, they said they were gathering heavy troops to attack the Shanxi-Sui Army and the Eighth Route Army.
At the same time, a large number of their elite teams will go deep and quickly seize favorable terrain.
Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun came to the room to rest, and the night passed quickly.
With his status, he can naturally command the second theater.
"Especially you young talents who have received formal education and have new combat concepts."
Then the evacuation will become a sheep herding state, resulting in heavy losses.
But this telegram was only sent in the name of the First War Zone Commander's Department, and it was signed here with Chief of Staff He Jingzhi!
He Jingzhi currently serves not only as the Chief of Staff, but also as the Chief of Staff, Logistics, National Army Administration, etc. He is one of the Four Giants.
The 27th Army is stationed in the Lingchuan City area in the northeastern area of Zhongtiao Mountain.
Until April 10th, in the afternoon, Chen Ziyun was drawing maps at the artillery regiment headquarters.
When he came to the Chief's Department, Chen Ziyun saw a lot of busy staff officers.
Previously, Wei Junru had vigorously trained these two people and constantly provided them with various supplements.
"Then at the appropriate time, we will assemble the first, second theater and other troops, cross the river and gradually control Zhongtiao Mountain and restore the Zhongtiao Mountain position."
Chen Ziyun took a deep breath, looked at He Jingzhi, and said with a serious expression on his face.
After He Jingzhi heard Chen Ziyun's suggestion, he couldn't help showing a surprised expression.
Even Guo Jiqiao and Chu Yunfei on the side stared at Chen Ziyun in disbelief.
