After listening to Zhou Weiguo's words, everyone agreed very much. Since you don't come to attack me, then I will attack. After all, I am not afraid of you.
"Now, the Japs are in the west, north and northwest of Tianjin." Zhou Weiguo pointed to the map, "According to the information found, the Japs are building fortifications in the current place. This shows that the Japs intend to block us in Tianjin.
Then what is the purpose of the Japanese blocking us in Tianjin?"
"I want to surround us and annihilate us." Fang Shengli smiled, "Since some soldiers have gone to tell the Japanese about my strength, the Japanese will not be afraid. If we do not restrict our development, the Japanese will be in trouble in North China."
, I really can’t live in peace.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Moreover, once we gain a foothold in this area, there will be no peace in the three eastern provinces." Gan Xinda added.
"Okay, then here comes the problem. The Japanese troops in China will not increase at least in the short term. If the Japanese want to surround our independent division and annihilate it, then they will need a lot of troops. Where are these troops?
Come? In Tianjin, we have more than 100,000 troops. Sun Tzu's Art of War said, if ten are to surround it, if five are to attack it, if twice the number is to divide it. Of course, this is a saying in the era of cold weapons." Zhou Weiguo smiled, "Now
After all, we are in the era of hot weapons, and the advantages of equipment are very important, but when the level of equipment is not much different, strategy is very important. However, no matter what, if the Japanese want to surround us, they may not be able to do it without 300,000 troops.
To 300,000 troops, would he dare to withdraw the troops on the border in Hebei and Anhui? No! So, he only had one source left, the Kwantung Army."
Everyone listened to Zhou Weiguo's explanation and was not surprised. Indeed, the Japanese army could not send troops to other places. Otherwise, they would not have planned to kill the Japanese soldiers in Tianjin in Peiping, Baoding, Tangshan, Chengde, etc.
Then they will capture these places, and finally move westward in an attempt to connect with Shanxi.
"But if the Japanese mobilize the Kwantung Army, won't they be afraid of the Soviet Union?"
"There is a word called distant friendship and close attack. If it is as we guessed, then the Japanese will definitely try to appease the Soviet Union recently and try to form a temporary alliance with the Soviet Union."
"When they free up their hands, they will definitely press the border with their troops, and they will definitely risk everything to wipe us out in Tianjin and eliminate their future troubles. The pressure we have put on the Japanese is already too great. I think the Japanese are now
I must regret that we didn't fight to the death again and again when we were still relatively weak." Zhou Weiguo continued to point at the map and spoke with a smile, then put away his smile and said seriously, "So, in the near future, we will have something going on.
It is a battle of life and death for our independent teachers."
After hearing what Zhou Weiguo said, everyone became serious. Indeed, based on this analysis, I am afraid that the Japanese really thought so and wanted to deal with their big enemy at once.
"Master, if that's the case, then we should take the initiative, right?"
"Yes." Zhou Weiguo nodded, "So, the question now is, should we wait for the main force of the Japanese to arrive and then annihilate the main force of the Japanese, and then recover the surrounding areas, or should we first annihilate the Japanese outside, recover the surrounding areas, and then welcome the Japanese?"
After listening to Zhou Weiguo's words, everyone fell into thinking. Indeed, the choice is a question. Should we take the territory first or fight the Japanese first?
To seize the territory first, you can first connect the independent division with Shanxi. In this way, the independent division will not be alone. However, there is a shortcoming. Soon after taking the territory, the Japanese army may invade the territory. At this time, there may still be many people in their territory.
The reorganization has not been completed, and the risk factor is too high. But if the Japanese are attacked first, and then the territory is invaded, the pressure will not be small. After all, they will only have the support of their independent division. However, the pressure is high, and once they win, the gains will be huge. The Japanese
If we mobilize the Kwantung Army to go south, as long as we win, the three eastern provinces will be empty. Maybe this will be an opportunity to regain the three eastern provinces.
When Zhou Weiguo saw that everyone was silent, he knew that everyone was thinking. However, he himself preferred the latter, because the former was more dangerous and could easily be defeated by the devils individually. Only when the strength is gathered together and used in one place can it be effective.
Power. Because of the trump card of the system, Zhou Weiguo did not think that the independent division would be unable to withstand the pressure of the Japanese.
…
Taiyuan, in a large house.
"Commander, the power of the Eighth Route Army is getting bigger and bigger!" complained a young man wearing a blue Jinsui Army uniform.
"Ha." The middle-aged man just smiled and did not answer. The Shanxi chief looked like an ordinary middle-aged man. There was nothing special about him. However, the sharp light flashing in his eyes meant that
He is not an ordinary middle-aged man.
"Commander, there is a call from Chongqing, asking us to deal with the Japanese appropriately, saying it is for the sake of the country." The young man said again, "I heard that the independent division took over Tianjin, and now people all over the country are talking about it."
The middle-aged man continued to close his eyes and lay on the recliner, listening to the young man's nagging. He was getting older and had difficulty managing some things, but Shanxi was so big that he didn't feel comfortable handing it over to him.
He believes that capitalism and communism are two extreme errors and that mankind should seek a moderate system. Therefore, he is not at ease whether it is handed over to Chiang Kai-shek or the Eighth Route Army. You must know that before the Anti-Japanese War, no matter where Chongqing was,
They are Yan Xishan's enemies on both sides of the Eighth Route Army.
Today, Japan's situation in China has taken a turn for the worse. It seems that the land it captured can no longer be defended, and the defense line is tight. Especially in North China, the Japanese are even more nervous due to the existence of the independent division. Yesterday, Tianjin was taken back by the independent division.
, I have to say, for the Japanese, it is really a slap in the face.
"Commander, the Japanese came to us again yesterday." The young man said again, "But I ignored him. The Japanese have no advantage at all now. They are still there with arrogance. I can't stand their humble position."
"Okay, you, don't pretend to be naive here." Yan Xishan opened his eyes and smiled, "Just now you said that Chongqing wants us to deal with the Japanese appropriately?"
"Yes."
"We don't seem to have any business dealings with independent divisions, right?"
"Yes, but I have always heard that the Independent Division provided artillery to Chongqing. I don't know if it is true or not."
"He Zhou Weiguo has done a lot of good things. I heard that Shandong is also vigorously promoting education and building factories, which can be regarded as saving the country through industry."
"yes."
"Since it's about the independent division, we still have to help. If I don't help, I, Yan Baichuan, will probably be pointed at and scolded. What should I do? Ask the staff and let the staff come up with a plan.
, Hurry, if there is no problem, implement it immediately. This resistance to Japan cannot be delayed for a moment."
"yes!"
Seeing the young man leaving, Yan Xishan also smiled and squinted his eyes. I am afraid that life will be difficult for the Japanese. Then all the territory in Shanxi that they conquered before should be vomited back.
