"Very good, what you said is very good. As the saying goes, the fisherman gets the advantage when the snipe and the clam compete. This time, our *** army will be the fisherman, and we cannot let Yan Xishan in the second theater take the lead...
Jingzhi, I will leave this matter to you, Cixiu will be responsible for assisting, and Yunong will provide intelligence support... The three of you must work together to come up with a plan in the shortest possible time..." Chiang Kai-shek's eyes were filled with emotion.
Brother Lian ordered...
"Yes, Chairman, I promise to complete the mission..." The three men saluted, replied loudly, turned and left the headquarters... And Chiang Kai-shek, who was sitting in his seat, looked at the backs of his three confidants, and then thought of his serious problem,
He will be eliminated by the Japanese army in the near future. At the same time, his National Government can also take this opportunity to regain control of Shanxi Province... Thinking of this, a smile slowly appeared on the corner of Chiang Kai-shek's mouth...
Compared with the happy Chiang Kai-shek, at this moment, the chairman and others who were far away in Yan'an were sitting in the war room of the Military Commission. The entire war room was filled with smoke because of several people smoking continuously... What's more important is that
, the atmosphere in the entire war room was very depressing. There was no trace of happiness on everyone's face, instead there was a frown...
Finally, the chairman, who was sitting in a daze on the stool, felt the pain of burning fingers, and then reacted from the shock: "Enlai, boss. I really didn't expect that our original idea would come true like this. The whole*
Sure enough, under Chiang Kai-shek's vigorous propaganda, the Japanese Army became a thorn in the side of the Japanese army. Four main divisions were mobilized at once, plus puppet troops, a total of 150,000 heavy troops, to attack the Japanese Army.
Encirclement and suppression operations..."
"Yes, Chairman, there are a total of 150,000 troops. In terms of strength, the Japanese Army Division no longer has any advantage... It seems that the Japanese army is bound to win this encirclement and suppression campaign... Our Japanese Army Division,
Otherwise, we will suffer very serious losses... Look, Chairman, are we following the regular fighting style of our Eighth Route Army, avoiding its sharp edges, proactively withdrawing from Taiyuan City, and conducting guerrilla operations with the Japanese army in the huge Shanxi Province...
"Vice Chairman Zhou also frowned and asked...
"I don't think it's appropriate... Now that the Communist Party has been brought to the forefront by Chiang Kai-shek's propaganda, the eyes of the people all over the country are looking at our Communist Party. If we don't put up any resistance, we will give up Taiyuan."
In the provincial capital city, what do the people across the country think of the *** division and our Eighth Route Army? I think that Chiang Kai-shek, who has always been worried about us, will not let go of this opportunity to attack our Eighth Route Army... So, no matter what, we cannot take the initiative
Give up the provincial capital city of Taiyuan..." the boss said with certainty...
"Yes, the boss is right. No matter what, we cannot give up Taiyuan City voluntarily... And this battle, regardless of winning or losing, the army must fight..." The chairman nodded and said affirmatively...
"But, Chairman, the Japanese army exceeds the current size of the *** Division in both strength and firepower. More importantly, the Japanese army also has a large number of air reinforcements. I think, just with the *** Division
The strength of the Japanese army is definitely no match for the Japanese army. Since we cannot retreat voluntarily, should we mobilize some of the main forces of the nearby 129th Division and 120th Division to reinforce the *** Division, and the three divisions should concentrate their forces to repel the Japanese army together?
Encirclement and suppression..." The boss pointed at the map and said...
"Well, I think you can. These two main divisions can mobilize at least 40,000 troops in a week to reinforce the *** Division. As for the ammunition supply of the troops, there is no need to worry about it. The *** Division is in Taiyuan
The arsenal can definitely replenish them with enough weapons and ammunition..." Vice Chairman Zhou agreed...
"Well, this is a good idea. But I think whether we can win this encirclement and annihilation battle mainly depends on the army commanders themselves. Enlai, boss, I think we are now in a hurry. The emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry...
Liu Hua in Shanxi didn't have any intention of being anxious, but the three of us started to be anxious... So, let's listen to Liu Hua's thoughts first, and then make a decision... Maybe, this Liu Hua will do it again
Create an unexpected result for us?" Gradually, the chairman's frown slowly relaxed, and he said with a smile to the two partners in front of him.
"The chairman is right. We first need to seek Liu Hua's opinion... Chairman, I will send a telegram in the form of an encrypted telegram to the commander of the *** Division Liu Hua and the political commissar Luo Ronghuan to tell them about the situation of the Japanese army.
Give them a brief briefing and ask them what they think..." Vice Chairman Zhou stood up from his seat and said with a smile...
Immediately, an encrypted telegram arrived in the hands of Liu Hua and Luo Ronghuan... As the contents of the telegram were translated bit by bit, the entire Japanese army's encirclement and suppression operation plan also emerged in Liu's mind bit by bit.
In Hua's mind, he saw the entire battle plan of the Japanese army. It was exactly as predicted by several of his people at the time. He was preparing to form two attack groups and launch an attack on the base area at the same time. He would conduct the final battle with his own division in the Taiyuan area.
The decisive battle. Liu Hua's mouth slowly revealed a hint of sneer...
"Commander, the little devil has really started to move. The chairman asked about our *** division's response plan, and asked us if we need support from other main divisions..." Looking at the commander who sneered in front of him, the political commissar
Luo Ronghuan asked...
"Political Commissar, call back to Chairman Mao of the Military Commission. Our *** division has the ability to repel this heavy Japanese encirclement and suppression. However, in order to ensure the safety of this battle, we hope that the other three main divisions of the Eighth Route Army can cooperate accordingly.
In the entire North China region, a large-scale raid was launched against the Japanese army. All the little Japanese garrisoned in North China were forced to retreat into the county town and clear the obstacles for the Japanese division to move north...Liu Hua, the commander of the Japanese division...
Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan..." Liu Hua replied...
Of course, this telegram also reached the war room of the Yan'an Military Commission in the shortest possible time...
"Chairman, what does Liu Hua mean by letting three main divisions launch a large-scale counterattack against the Japanese army in North China... You must know that this time, the four main divisions of the Japanese army are all transferred from the south. Even if we arrive
Setting fire to the little devil's backyard is also to let the New Fourth Army carry out some big operations in the southern region... But this Liu Hua wants three main divisions to operate in the northern region of China. It's really unfathomable..." After reading the telegram in his hand,
Vice Chairman Zhou asked with a puzzled look...
"Well, I can't figure out what Liu Hua is thinking... However, I still believe in Liu Hua's command ability. Since his army division does not need reinforcements, then he has the ability.
, relying on the existing forces to solve the Japanese army's encirclement and suppression operation this time..." the commander-in-chief responded affirmatively.
However, while Vice Chairman Zhou and the Commander-in-Chief were discussing Liu Hua's reply, the chairman's eyes were fixed on the telegram in front of him, just like the telegram in his hand.
, as if it contains a huge secret... However, as the chairman thought, there is really a shocking battle plan hidden in this telegram... As long as this battle plan can be fully implemented, it can be said that,
Another victory that shocked both China and the world...
The content of the telegram flashed through the chairman's eyes word by word, and he analyzed each sentence in his mind to see if there was any mystery... Looking at the chairman who was deep in thought, even the person who had just discussed the content of the telegram
Vice Chairman Zhou and the Commander-in-Chief could not help but stop. Their eyes, at the same time, stared motionlessly at the Chairman in front of them, like a statue...
Finally, after a few minutes of silence in the entire war room, the chairman, who had been frowning just now, immediately relaxed. At the same time, there was a hint of sharpness, a hint of excitement or relief in his eyes... because the chairman
After a few minutes of thinking, I have slowly seen through the shocking battle plan hidden in the entire message...
"Chairman, did you discover something?" Seeing the instant change in the chairman's facial expression, the Commander-in-Chief quickly asked...
"Enlai, boss. Take a look at this reply. Although on the surface, Liu Hua asked the other three main divisions to cooperate and launch a large-scale counterattack in the entire North China region. In fact, the content of the entire telegram hides a very large operation.
Plan, take a look at this sentence: 'Let all the little Japs in the North China garrison retreat into the county and clear the way for the Japanese division to go north...'" Seeing that the eyes of the two people were all on him,
The chairman quickly pointed to a sentence in the telegram and said...
"Chairman, what you mean is that this time Liu Hua plans to jump to the outside and hit the little devil hard, so that the little devil has to deploy troops to reinforce the corrupt battlefields in North China..." the commander-in-chief replied thoughtfully...
"Boss, you should think bigger. The content of Liu Hua's telegram clearly stated that they want to go north... Now it's not time to go north to the northeast. Think about it, the vast area north of Shanxi
Apart from the Northeast, what other areas can really sting the nerves of the Japanese army and make them have to send reinforcements for rescue..." the chairman said with a smile.
"Ah, the Pingjin area... The Japanese Army plans to march into the Pingjin area... That is the headquarters of the Japanese garrison in North China. More importantly, the entire Chinese dispatched army and almost all strategic materials are hoarded in the Pingjin area... No matter in military terms
, still in the world, and even in the world, the Pingjin area plays a decisive role... If the Japanese division can really capture the Pingjin area by surprise, the little devils will definitely send troops... and the Pingjin area is closest to the Pingjin area.
The Japanese army is the four main Japanese divisions preparing to besiege Shanxi Province... Liu Hua's plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao is so perfect..." The commander-in-chief stared at the military map in front of him and exclaimed loudly.
…
"Chairman, boss, I really don't want to fight. This Liu Hua has such a long-term strategic vision, staring directly at the Pingjin area hundreds of kilometers away from Shanxi Province. This makes me dare not even think about it... However, I
There is another question that I can't figure out. Since the *** Division has decided to send troops to the Ping-Tianjin area, why should we let our other three main divisions take the opportunity to launch a large-scale counterattack in the entire North China area..." After Vice Chairman Zhou was surprised,
He asked with a puzzled look on his face...
"Enlai, it's actually very simple to say, that is, let our army fight with the little devils in the entire North China region and paralyze the little devils... Haha, let the boss tell you about the mystery behind this, right?"
The chairman, who had figured out the key to the entire problem, said with a smile.
"Enlai, it's like this. There are two main reasons for the chaos in the entire North China region. The first reason is to disrupt the Japanese army's realization and provide cover for the Japanese division to send troops to the Pingjin area. This can play a role
An unexpected effect. Another problem is that under such favorable circumstances, our Eighth Route Army departments can expand their base areas to strengthen themselves and expand the influence of our *** division..." the commander-in-chief explained with a smile.
"Great, this is really a plan that achieves multiple goals with one stone. This Liu Hua is really getting better and better at fighting. But, Chairman, Boss... If the *** division sends troops to the Pingjin area, then there are still enough troops in their base area
Can we use our strength to hold on until the Battle of Peking and Tianjin begins and the main force of the Japanese army is forced to return for reinforcements?" Vice Chairman Zhou nodded in sudden realization. However, another question came to mind...
"Well, you're right. According to the current combat effectiveness of the Japanese Army, if you want to seize the Pingjin area in the shortest possible time without anyone noticing, and transport all the strategic materials that the Japanese army has hoarded in the Pingjin area back to the base area, at least
Thirty thousand troops are needed, and it will take at least a week... By then, there will be only 120,000 regular troops left in the entire base area. Coupled with defense issues in other directions, the *** division can handle the troops
, only the troops in the two military divisions of Shanxi East and North Shanxi are left..." The chairman's brows wrinkled again, and he analyzed thoughtfully...
"Chairman, according to the last report of the Army Division on the establishment of the military region troops, each military division only has about 30,000 regular troops. It is quite difficult for 30,000 people to resist the Japanese and puppet troops of more than 70,000 people..." the commander-in-chief said gloomily.
Face said…
"Boss, Enlai, we don't want to think about this problem anymore. Since Liu Hua is sure to win this battle, the three of us should stop thinking about it and just stay here and wait for Liu Hua to send us the news... I believe,
Liu Hua will not let us down this time either..." The chairman, who couldn't think of any clues, shook his head helplessly and said with a smile to the two of them...
"Yes, the chairman is right. I also believe that in this counter-encirclement and suppression campaign, Liu Hua and the hundreds of thousands of troops of the *** Division will definitely create a miracle for us again..." The commander-in-chief also said
Said with confidence….
"Chairman, boss, if this is the case, then I will call Liu Hua back. *** completely agrees with their combat plan. In the near future, other units of the Eighth Route Army will launch a large-scale counterattack throughout North China to disrupt the Japanese army.
With our vision, we will clear all obstacles for you to head north... What do you think?" Vice Chairman Zhou asked with a smile...
"Well, that's the call back. In addition, I would like to add a sentence, wishing the *** division to achieve greater success and make new contributions to the revolutionary cause in this anti-encirclement and suppression campaign. My boss, and General Enlai
I will be in the War Room of the Military Commission, waiting for the victory report of the *** division..." The chairman also added with a smile.
"Yes, Chairman, I'll call the *** engineer back right away..." After saying that, Vice Chairman Zhou stood up from his seat.
At this moment, Liu Hua, the commander of the *** Division, was standing in the large war room, staring unblinkingly at the actual map hanging on the wall in front of him. But his eyes had no trace of anything at all.
The changes are watched in the Pingjin area hundreds of kilometers away...
"Commander, are you really planning to march into the Pingjin area...According to the information sent back by intelligence personnel, it is confirmed that due to the successive losses of the Japanese garrison in North China, the size of the Japanese garrison in the entire Pingjin area is only one brigade, and there are nearly 10,000 others.
The puppet troops are stationed in various counties..." Watching the commander's eyes fixed on the Pingjin area on the map, the political commissar who learned the commander's entire combat plan said with the intelligence he had just received.
.
"Well, political commissar, the reason why we chose the Pingjin area as our target is because it is so tempting... You see, this is a vast mountainous area, directly connected to the Northeastern region. This time our action can be directly carried out in this mountainous area.
, leaving at least one combat brigade of troops to establish a base here. This will provide a very good starting point for us to march into the Northeast in the future... Another problem is to force the Japs who attacked our base to retreat and return to support Pingjin.
region... However, there is another very important reason, and that is the hundreds of thousands of tons of combat supplies that the Japs have hoarded in the Pingjin area... It would be too tempting to put such a large amount of supplies there..." Commander
Liu Hua pointed at the map and said...
"Well, it's a tactic of killing three birds with one stone... However, I don't know if the Communist Party will agree to our battle plan... The other thing is whether the troops left behind can stop the hundreds of thousands of Japanese and puppet troops before we occupy Pingjin.
An attack?" The political commissar expressed his worries at this moment.
"Political Commissar, don't worry. The two military divisions, with the cooperation of the two squadrons of the special operations brigade, will definitely not have any problems blocking and severely damaging the two Japanese armies. As for ***, I believe Chairman, Vice Chairman Zhou
And the Commander-in-Chief will agree to our combat plan..." Liu Hua didn't take the political commissar's question seriously because, in his mind, he already had a plan to block the Japanese attack...
