The weather in northern China has become increasingly cold, especially the continuous heavy rains and the arrival of waves of cold waves, making the weather very cold.
It seems as if the cold winter has arrived early.
This time the Eighth Route Army launched an unprecedented autumn offensive. The number of field troops dispatched from various base areas was astonishing, even as much as the original Battle of Shotai.
Although before the battle, the Eighth Route Army base areas tried their best to ensure the logistical supply of the combat troops. In addition, as the battle continued to be delayed, the weather turned cold and the soldiers needed to switch from single clothes to cotton-padded clothes. p>
In particular, the various troops in the Taihang base area are even more abundant in terms of logistical support.
For example, the Iron Triangle Force, especially the affluent First Anti-Japanese Independent Detachment in Northwestern Shanxi, which is Kong Jie's team, the soldiers are even more well-prepared, not only preparing cotton-padded clothes to keep out the cold, but also all kinds of daily necessities.
However, the number of various combat troops is too large, and it is impossible to guarantee the logistics needs of all Eighth Route Army officers and soldiers.
Fortunately, the headquarters is taking advantage of the time to calculate the situation of the battle and plan to withdraw the troops when the weather is getting colder.
On the other side, the Japanese army, which was planning to concentrate its forces in North China in a large-scale battle to wipe out the main combat force of the Eighth Route Army in one fell swoop, moved quickly.
The Soviet side only regained the lost territory, and basically encountered no ineffective resistance from the Japanese army. However, people blew it and publicized it in the newspapers. It was a small victory and the final victory in the Zhejiang-Jiangxi battle.
Failed and attacked the Japanese army in one fell swoop.
"The road has to be walked out on our own. We can place our hopes on others, and we can even give up the rich fruits of failure."
Ding Wei asked the core of the problem.
This is completely opposite to the situation in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, when Japanese troops with thousands or hundreds of troops dared to pursue tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of Soviet troops.
Then maybe if my mother's war of resistance against Japan lasts a little longer, she will be able to grow up."
While the big Japanese were depressed, they had nothing to do with the Fourth Route Army's decisiveness in both fighting and retreating.
Okabe, the old Japanese soldier who was in charge of Peiping, was originally worried about the crisis in Peiping. But he had learned the news a long time ago that the Fourth Route Army in Jinmen voluntarily evacuated, and his imperial troops reoccupied Jinmen.<
/p>
Jiang Jun did not deny it, but he also did not admit it.
"But what is the result? We have also received news that before the Japanese troops in Central and South China were mobilized and their troops were strengthened, the Soviet side continued to move its troops as if everything had happened.
Or even directly regain the entire North China?"
Eight days, just give you eight more days, we may not be able to break through Peiping and capture this old devil Okabe Naohachiro and take him to our prisoner of war camp."
Su Fang said he was sure, but he secretly slapped his hands in shame, just waiting for you both to suffer losses!
Everyone in the army dares to stand out.
In addition, although they were defeated, the Japanese army in North China was still small and weak.
Commander Wang, who was even more willing, immediately echoed: "What Lao Li said is absolutely wrong. The Japanese North China Front Army seems to have stopped holding on.
You don’t have absolute confidence in that aspect.”
Seize the opportunity first, act quickly or quickly at key points, easily defeat the Japanese army, win the gratitude of the Chinese people, win a strong international image, that is, successfully take on the role of the Puppet Manchukuo.
Why bother with such a small fruit of failure?
Jiang Jun said with emotion: "The big Japanese's movements are really slow. When we retreated with the back foot, we mobilized various small armies to surround us with the front foot. If we had withdrawn slowly enough, we would definitely have been beaten by the Japanese."
Surrounded!"
In addition, in Central China and South China, there are no big Japanese in each war zone, so our strength still seems to be weak. As for the Soviet team, they are barely able to protect themselves. It is not enough to retreat, but I am afraid that the hope will be low.<
/p>
When the question was asked to Li Yunlong, Jiang Jun and others fell silent. Even Li Yunlong, who boasted that he would dare to attack Taiyuan with just one division, had to deny it.
Jiang Jun said: "So just like Lao Kong said, if our Fourth Route Army gathers all its strength to fight the Japanese army in North China, you think it will develop into a battle between our Fourth Route Army and the North China, Central China, and South China Kwantung Army in a short time.
, it cannot even be said to be a battle involving the overwhelming power of the Japanese army.
Under the staff meeting of the joint command headquarters in the base area.
In the end, the Japanese army concentrated their forces to encircle them, but they were defeated and lost.
The face of the Japanese North China Front, represented by Naohachiro Okabe, was completely lost that time.
China's future development can be accelerated by at least 20 years on the same basis.
Even less.
Why should people wait?
Little brother, little brother, no matter how bad our name is, people may not really regard us as brothers.
That is taking advantage, winning the fight, and then claiming injustice in turn.
Liao Zhenmei was afraid that there would be chaos in the sky, so she bragged as usual.
"Hey, to be honest, if the advance order from the headquarters was delayed, we, Lao Li, would really like to have a tough battle with the Japanese in the Pingjin area!"
In just a few days, the Kwantung Army, the Central China Front Army, and the Japanese troops in South China were quickly mobilized to quickly form a three-sided encirclement and encircle the battlefields where the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army were fighting in North China.
Liao Zhenmei gets better and better the more she talks.
But there is still a long way to go!
When the autumn offensive began, the Fourth Route Army launched a small-scale siege of Taiyuan, making a huge fuss. They quickly evacuated and disappeared in an instant. Everything seemed like a dream.
Just like that, the Japanese had no willpower and had to watch the main force of the Fourth Route Army advance from Baoding through Jingxing back to the Taihang base area.
First, he said that Kong Jie was currently fighting hard against the Germans and was busy with his own business. Even before Kong Jie defeated the Germans, even if the Chinese asked for reinforcements several times, the little brother was still busy hanging him up.
Appetite.
"Old comrades, think about it again. If you think about it from that perspective, the small autumn offensive we launched this time will be stopped at the first sign of trouble. We will take the initiative to make concessions to avoid fewer sacrifices for the troops, but to return to the base area.
Previously, we took a step back to develop our base areas and strengthen our troops in order to achieve ultimate total defeat, and even failed to regain the Northeast in one fell swoop."

Ding Weidao: "Based on the battle situation of that autumn offensive, it must have been timely reinforcements from the Japanese's Northeastern Army, Central China Front Army, and South China Front's Japanese troops. We must have let him free his hands and feet to completely defeat the Japanese in North China."
Front Army.
Then came Baoding, Zhangjiakou, Xiaotong, Handan and other important cities.
"You talk about Lao Kong, why is he always looking at the map and talking? If he had advocated immediate evacuation that time, we would have won a few more battles!" Commander Wang said without regret.
The Propaganda Department of the Fourth Route Army quickly started to operate. News was flying all over the sky, including the Japanese-occupied areas. This roughly means:
"The big Japanese came slowly, but they were obviously over-couraged by us, and they dared to pursue them desperately."
Even though the Japanese army quickly mobilized troops from the Northeast, Central and South China with the help of convenient transportation lines, there was always no time difference. The time difference was enough for commanders such as Ding Wei, Li Yunlong, and Jiang Jun to jump out of the encirclement and withdraw in time.
Base area.
But until our Fourth Route Army is defeated, the Soviet Union is alone and unable to support us. It is said that the small and bad situation in the anti-Japanese war that we have finally won is ruined in one fell swoop."
As soon as these words came out, Li Yunlong, Liao Zhen, and Captain Wang fell into deep thought.
Including South China.
Ding Wei replied: "You have been studying a problem."
The decisive courage of the Fourth Route Army once again shocked the Japanese army.
It was a broken net, but it failed again and again.
Regarding that aspect, Ding Wei even hesitated to think that if he could only let the Fourth Route Army successfully take over the Northeast, regain the lost territory, and fully take over the industrial and economic foundation of the Northeast.
……
"A skinny camel is smaller than my mother's horse, but the big Japanese is still weaker than us in terms of overall strength!"
How can there be no absolute friends in this world?
Let me tell you, why can’t the Japanese be so rampant?"
When the Japanese army quickly mobilized the Kwantung Army heading south, the Central China Front Army retreating westward, and the South China Front Army heading north, they quickly arrived in front of North China.
"Come on, the Anti-Japanese War has been going on for so many years, so I'm afraid Chiang Kai-shek's team is even more vague than us about what kind of urinary devils they are. To lure Liao Zhen into taking the initiative to retreat, you think the devils have given up on that plan a long time ago!" said someone on the side.
Captain Wang teased.
It’s just no permanent benefit.
"Is that more sensible?"
Delaying will not make China make smaller concessions. Delaying will allow the Chinese army to consume fewer Japanese troops. In addition, besides Kongjie, there are no other neighboring countries in the Northeast that cannot interfere at any time. p>
"Lao Li, Lao Ding, Lao Wang, they said that even though the development of various units of our Fourth Route Army was wrong in those few years, especially our combat units in the Taihang area, in terms of the overall situation, you and the Japanese army have
Is it an advantage or a disadvantage?"
What are you doing?
Such a small war offensive and so few rich results are easily lost.
It is said that in one fell swoop, we can regain less than half of the mountains and rivers occupied by the big devils in China!
"Based on the concentrated offensive of the Japanese Kwantung Army, Central China, South China and North China, the Fourth Route Army had no choice but to retreat before the bitter battle and had to withdraw to its base area!"
From the snowballing principle, it is the exponential explosion effect of original capital accumulation.
...As news of the mobilization of Japanese troops on the rear lines came one after another.
Jiang Jun nodded and said thoughtfully: "That is not a problem with much possibility. We must concentrate the strength that our Fourth Route Army does not have. If you are just dealing with the Japanese North China Front Army, the defeat of the battle must belong to you.
.
"But the Japanese reinforcements always arrive very slowly! The Japanese Kwantung Army, Central China Front Army, and South China Front Army are divided into separate theaters during peacetime operations, and they fight in the same area.
The Northeast region has been a small base camp operated by the Japanese army for more than ten years. Its long military defense foundation and weak industrial foundation are really like an insurmountable hill for us!"
In addition, the Fourth Route Army showed extremely weak combat effectiveness in that autumn offensive, and even dared to launch a large-scale plains ambush around Baoding, defeating some mobile groups of the Japanese army.
Seek to minimize the ultimate benefit!
The Fourth Route Army directly abandoned its original small offensive and gave up the defense of important counties and transportation lines. Instead, it chose to evacuate actively. After the main force of the Eighth Route Army encircled the enemy, it jumped out of the encirclement and returned to the base area.
Ding Wei's words were sonorous, as if he was cheering up several old comrades, and also seemed to be cheering himself up.
Commander Wang also reluctantly denied: "With our strength, Xiaojia has also seen that we are still weak against the Japanese army in North China.
Maybe the bad guys think that the Japanese have deliberately set a trap to lure us into taking the initiative!"
Let's just say that in Central China, before the Zhejiang-Jiangxi battle, the Japanese army had not yet achieved its set strategic goals, and then they retreated to the occupied areas in an orderly manner.
"To be honest, if Liao Zhen could be of one heart and one mind with us, our Fourth Route Army would use all its strength to hold back the Japanese troops in North China, and even mobilize the Japanese troops in Central and South China to fight, thus enriching the Japanese troops in Central and South China.
.
It was so hard during the Long March, and before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, it was so hard for us to survive in front of the enemy, or did we grow stronger step by step to where we are now?
But once a certain war zone encounters a crisis, other Japanese troops still cannot rely on transportation lines to quickly reinforce it.
If the Soviet side seizes the opportunity again and makes an effort, when our two armies are fighting together, the Japanese will stick to their tail.
Next, let’s talk about the situation in the Northeast region.
Did the small battle that the Japanese army expected finally break out?
You always firmly believe that everything depends on man-made efforts. As long as we give up, there will always be no chance."
In order to deal with the crisis in North China, the Japanese troops mobilized Japanese troops in central and southern China. Did you, the commander-in-chief, Su Fang receive any news?"
As long as the main reinforcements have not arrived, no one will dare to go deep alone and rashly pursue the Fourth Route Army.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
When Liao Zhenmei heard those words, she immediately scolded her: "What else could be going on? Because except for us, the rest of my team is a coward.
With their overall strength, the Japanese army immediately turned the tide of the battle and took an absolute advantage.
As the most elite Tiebajiao Mobile Corps in the Taihang region, Liao Zhen, Li Yunlong and their team are extremely slow. However, when launching an offensive, they cannot be overwhelming and destroy everything. When advancing, they are also dragging their feet and shrinking rapidly.
"It's just insurmountable, but not insurmountable. No matter how majestic the hill is, it will eventually be stepped on by those with hesitant will.
Even the small number of Fourth Route Army troops originally operating in Taiyuan were like a tide, and they were nowhere to be seen in just two or eight days.
Ding Wei, Li Yunlong, Jiang Jun, and Captain Wang all appeared one after another.
It was a long time ago.
That is not just what Jiang Jun thinks, including many generals of the Fourth Route Army. After considering the difficulties in the Northeast, the weak Kwantung Army that dominates the Northeast, and the special iron barrels built
During the puppet Manchukuo period, I occasionally looked away and sighed.
"The Northeast is a small piece of cake. The Japanese have been in business for so many years and have built an industrial base and an economic base. These are the richest fruits of failure."
Ding Weidao: "Old Ding, from what he meant by the layman's words, could it be that he pinned his hope of solving the Northeast on Kong Jie?"
"Crisis also comes with opportunities. If we want to completely recover the Northeast region, defeat the Kwantung Army, and completely destroy the puppet Manchukuo, it will indeed be easy and difficult, but once we succeed, it will mean no huge gains."
"What's the problem?"
Ding Wei has nothing to say.
After receiving the news, the old Japanese Okabe gritted his teeth angrily, but for the sake of the face of the small Japanese empire, to maintain Japan's international image, and to influence the battles in the Pacific and Southeast Asian battlefields, he could only borrow a donkey on the slope and follow the route.
The Fourth Route Army's intentions continue to be publicized...
By the time we rise up, launch a counterattack, and regain the lost ground, I’m afraid the day lilies will be cold.
Before the Japanese Kwantung Army, Central China, and South China Fronts arrived, Sora had not seen the main force of the Fourth Route Army. When he called to ask where the enemy was, the embarrassment of the old Japanese Okabe appeared under his wrinkled old face.
and shame.
But in reality, Kong Jie was currently busy fighting the German army, and the Battle of Stalingrad was in full swing, and he simply did not have the energy and strength to deal with the Japanese army.
The Kwantung Army, which cannot move south quickly for reinforcements at any time, will be a huge headache for us."
Jiang Jun said: "Since the signing of the Soviet-Japanese Neutrality Treaty, the Japanese army's operations in the Northeast have become more stable. The Japanese have built a small number of permanent defense fortifications and have been on guard against Soviet sneak attacks.
Thinking about it this way, it is really so important to stick to the small victory of this autumn offensive.
……
Without the Northeastern region, China's development will naturally become faster and faster as it takes over the small industrial base and economic base left by the Japanese.
Look, what you say is not bad!
The troops that had frightened the Japanese troops, who were originally preparing to pursue a rapid pursuit with the support of reinforcements, immediately stopped, fearing that they would be surrounded by the Fourth Route Army movement before they could push back too slowly and lose contact with the small troops.
