The North and Central Route Army of our country is indeed a newly formed new army.
As early as when our own army in Nanqiu County shifted from offensive to defensive, our country's commander-in-chief proposed to transfer some of the backbones of the Central Route Army and add new recruits to form the Central and North Route Army.
Due to the newly organized irregular forces, there are only three legions under its jurisdiction, with a total of 300,000 troops.
The North Central Route Army was commanded by the famous general Jing Xuan of our country. He had retired for ten years and was entrusted by others to return to the army. This time he personally led the invasion of Nanping County. The ability to sneak attack Jin Man showed that his tactical skills were good.
"Ding Kui's two divisions are going to attack Beiping Prefecture?" He put down the information and stretched out his hand to rub the bridge of his nose, "Is Dai Kui old? Why can't he watch the two enemy divisions?"
He came to a simple sand table, folded his arms and meditated.
"Okay, then I'll do whatever it takes." Jingxuan stretched, but his eyes sparkled.
Late at night on February 9th, in Beiluan County, Dai Gu stood on the north city tower with a livid face as he watched a large number of dejected officers and soldiers walk into the city gate below.
This time it was the Second Northern Army Corps that was defeated again.
"The enemy ambushed an elite force in the city. They suddenly came out during dinner in the evening and opened the west gate. The enemy's 71st Division, which was ambushed outside, took the opportunity to rush into the city. At that time, the enemy's 20th Army Corps appeared in the south of the city again, so the Soviet Army Commander decisively ordered
Leave the city and break out of the siege." A staff officer was describing the battle situation to Dai Gu.
Back to two days ago, Dai Ku decided to contain the Shaodian Army and sent the Second Northern Army Corps to attack and successfully regained Shanxi City. Although there were no Shaodian Army in the city, the army commander Su Long still took the credit for himself.
Before the Second Northern Army had time to identify the people in the city, the Eighth Army arrived at the city gates the next day and immediately attacked the city.
Perhaps because he saw that the Second North Army Corps was garrisoned in the city and the Eighth Army Corps did not divide its troops and concentrated its forces to attack the north gate, Su Long did not relax his vigilance. He still arranged one division each to guard the other three gates, but did not continue to search the city.
You must know that Ding Kui once occupied Shanxi City and might have ambushed troops or destroyed some city defense facilities to facilitate his capture again next time.
Since the main force of the Eighth Army was able to attack, how could Ding Kui not leave any backup, so he left Fan Yuzhen's brigade in Shanxi City.
Now he uses Fan Yuzhen's brigade as a special force, because this brigade is equipped with repeating crossbows and a hundred golden bamboo crossbows. It has very strong individual combat effectiveness, coupled with its already good team combat capabilities, it is completely comparable to the original special forces.
War camp.
He also asked the 74th and 75th Divisions to change the flag of the 20th Army Corps and go around to the south of Shanxi City to ambush. He only waited for the 71st Division to enter the city and then ran out to scare his own troops.
Fan Yuzhen destroyed several parts of the west gate early in the morning, and took advantage of the city gate guards' shift to eat. She first knocked down the city gate to send a signal to the outside, and then stood near the city gate to stop her own troops.
Dong Ba rushed out immediately after seeing the signal, roaring past a distance of several hundred meters in half a minute, and rushed into Shanxi City before Su Long received the news of the ambush.
When Su Long discovered that there was the Eighth Army Corps in front of him and the Twenty Army Corps behind him, and that Shaodian's army broke through the west gate, he immediately lost confidence in holding on to Shanxi City.
Earlier, he had lost more than 20,000 people when he was attacked from both sides by Ding Kui and the 20th Army, which left him with a psychological shadow. This time, he dared not hesitate when faced with three enemies, so he immediately ordered his troops to gather and escape from the east of the city.
The defeated Northern Second Army did not know that the "Twentieth Army" was pretended to be led by Ding Kui, and the real Twenty Army marched into Beiping Prefecture in a mighty manner.
Ding Kui returned to Shanxi City to join Jiang Zhi.
"Master Yi has gone to support Zhongwangzhou on your behalf. We should be able to catch the enemy off guard." Jiang Zhi vented to Ding Kui.
When Ding Kui discovered that his own army was abnormal, he sent Ao Yan, Ruan Xingzhu and himself across the border to investigate the enemy's situation. In one day, he roughly grasped the deployment of his own army.
Because Jiang Zhi and his main force were still on the way, Ding Kui planned an ambush with Yi Sheng first.
After defeating the Second North Army Corps and not being able to capture the First North Army Corps, Jiang Zhi, who was marching at full speed, formulated the next battle plan.
The Second Northern Army encountered Ding Kui, who was best at sneaking around and attacking. They were attacked repeatedly by the 20th Army and the 8th Army. It can be said that they were defeated unjustly.
"I already know that the enemy's 8th Army Corps is attacking your headquarters. Even if the enemy's 20th Army Corps arrives, won't you inform me? Could it be that I and the Northern First Army Corps can't save Shanxi City? What else can you do besides running away? You have tens of thousands
Subordinates, can't you fight the enemy in the street for a day?" Dai Ku pointed at Su Xuan and scolded him.
Su Xuan lowered his head and did not dare to explain.
"I think you're not even as good as Feng Run. He blocked the enemy's Eighth Army for more than half a month, but you couldn't even hold on for half the night!"
Dai Ku was holding back his anger. The report from the General Command made him useless, almost saying that he was not qualified to command the Northern Route Army.
His deputy led most of the Northern Route Army in Nanqiu County and was sacked, leaving behind those who should not have been captured. Now in our country's military, the Northern Route Army has become synonymous with shame.
I'm afraid the higher-ups have the idea of canceling the designation of the North Route Army, so they named the new unit the Central North Route Army. The North Route Army may end up in his hands and become history.
Poof, Su Xuan knelt down on the ground and said with a sobbing voice: "I deserve to die. I am willing to become a suicide soldier and lead the remaining troops to counterattack Shanxi City. I will fight the enemy to the death. If I lose, I will never survive."
"Now that I know that I have to fight to the death, why did I go there earlier? There is no point in going now! The enemy is defending the city, and you can't hurt the enemy even if you kill all your men!"
Dai Ku's saliva sprayed onto Su Xuan's face.
"How many subordinates do you have left? Sixty percent? Fifty percent? Forget it, you don't have to go anywhere, just stay here and defend Beiluan County. I will personally go to restore the face of the Northern Route Army!"
He decided to fight to the death with Shaodian's army and personally led the Northern First Army to attack Shanxi City.
The Shanxi City in front of him was once again an empty city. It was only the morning of February 10th, which meant that the Shaodian Army had occupied this place for less than half a day.
"Running away again? Or ambushing nearby?"
Dai Ku hesitated at the foot of the city. In terms of military strength, the other side was not inferior to his own, and in terms of combat effectiveness, the other side had the upper hand. Normally, Shaodian's army did not have to avoid the battle at all. There was no problem in staying in Shanxi City for half a month.
"Let your subordinates enter the city, please return to the county and command." Xiang Ban, the commander of the Northern First Army Corps, stepped forward to help his old superiors solve their problems.
"Huh, it's not that I don't dare to enter the city, but I must first grasp the enemy's movements and never let the enemy run rampant in our territory."
"Sir, I forgive my subordinates for being discouraged. The enemy is good at mobile warfare. If our army tracks the enemy, we will fall into their trap. Even this empty city is a trap. With the buildings in the city, our army can at least delay it for a while.
, waiting for friendly forces to come for reinforcements.”
To be honest, Xiang Ban didn't dare to pursue the Eighth Army. If he caught up with them, he wouldn't be able to win. He would rather choose to fight in the streets in the city.
When Dai Guzheng was hesitating, the Beiping Prefecture War began.
