"Brother Chen, your food is pretty good! You can also get a lot of fat meat, so I have to have a good fight with my brothers today." Lieutenant General Zhao on the side couldn't help but interjected.
Of course he was also keen on Liu Lang's sand table, but Brigadier Chen Da was the first to grab it "without moral integrity". If he, the lieutenant general, wanted to ask for it, it would be too difficult for Liu Lang. He could only settle for the next best thing.
, it’s time to beat the autumn wind of the 386th Brigade.
However, Lieutenant General Zhao is also a smart man. The meaning behind his words is that your 386th Brigade cannot only control me. My brothers will also have to get their hands on meat and fish. From the time it went to the anti-Japanese battlefield to the present, all the officers and soldiers of the 17th Division have been killed.
No matter how it has been touched by meat and fish, this mouth is really bland and bad.
"Hey, Commander Zhao, let me borrow some flowers to offer to Buddha, and cook the two fat pigs sent by Liu Tuanzuo in one pot today. Our 129th Division, 386th Brigade, 22nd Army Independent Regiment, and the 17th Division will have a big pre-war meeting.
Party. But, having said that, Captain Liu, the guns provided by the soldiers of your guard platoon seemed to be very good. Let me try two guns later!" the future general said with a smile.
The only thing Liu Tuanzuo can do now is to roll his eyes. No one else can talk and laugh like this while eating from the bowl and looking at the food in the pot.
Of course, Lieutenant General Zhao is not a "good guy" either. When Deputy Zhang Tuan sent gifts on behalf of the Independence Group last night, there were three big fat pigs purchased in the mountain village. He looked like a brother who hadn't eaten meat in a long time.
But he didn't mention it. However, three fat pigs weighed no more than 400 pounds, and the 17th Division had more than 10,000 people, so one piece per person was probably not bad.
Liu Lang was not wrong this time. The infantrymen each got a piece of the big fat pig sent by the Independent Regiment last night, but everyone in the 17th Division, from the division commander to the platoon leader, from the general officer to the lieutenant officer, got a piece of meat.
I drank more broth.
It doesn't matter if the sandbox is given away. As long as the sandbox data is still there, rebuilding the sandbox is just a matter of overnight. Since Liu Lang brought the sandbox, he naturally didn't want to take it away.
But the semi-automatic rifle is a bit troublesome. There is no supply of bullets, and the semi-automatic rifle is no more than a fire stick in their hands. If you want to support the war and live by confiscating ammunition from the Japanese invaders, it is not as easy as you say.
Son.
"Two sirs, it's okay for me to personally invite the three armies to fight off the little Japs after we drink and eat meat. Let's talk about business first." Liu Lang quickly brought back the straying topic.
Otherwise, looking at the green eyes of these two men, Liu Tuanzuo felt that the shiny semi-automatic rifle he had brought with him might not be safe.
Hearing what Liu Lang said, the two generals quickly turned their eyes to the sand table again, and their faces became extremely solemn. Liu Lang had marked the entire Shijiazhuang, which was dozens of kilometers away from Jingxing County and had not been occupied by the Japanese army, in red.
Represents the Japanese army in an offensive state.
Obviously, Liu Lang had no idea how long Shijiazhuang, which still had four divisions, could hold off the Japanese army. The two generals didn't ask, because there was no need to ask.
The three Japanese troops attacking Shijiazhuang were designated as the 20th Division, the 108th Division, the 109th Division, the 31st Brigade, a Japanese Class A permanent division, and a Semi-A special division, totaling more than 50,000 people.
Not to mention four divisions, even ten divisions would have difficulty blocking the Japanese aircraft and artillery offensive in such a plain area.
What made their faces solemn was not that Shijiazhuang was about to fall, but that, judging from the situation, it wouldn't be long before the ten Chinese divisions stationed in the Niangziguan area would face the more than 50,000 Japanese invaders.
Although Jindong is not a plain and has good geographical advantages, can China's mountains block the sharp artillery fire of the Japanese army? The faces of the two generals were hard to look at. The Japanese army's strength was much greater than they expected.
"Two and a half divisions are coming to attack. The Japanese command is determined to capture Taiyuan, Shanxi Province!" Zhao Shoushan frowned and sighed, "Without him, the troops will just come to stop us."
"Since Chief Zhao fought against the Japanese invaders, have you discovered any common faults among the Japanese commanders?" Liu Lang asked with a slight smile.
Zhao Shoushan pondered for a moment, with a trace of pain and helplessness on his face. He slapped the table and said: "Arrogant, the Japanese commanders at all levels are so arrogant. Often an infantry brigade dares to attack the defensive positions of one of our regiments or one of our regiments."
He dared to fight in the field with a fully-equipped division three times his size. Our 17th Division was already pretty good. Before the war, it was equipped with an artillery battalion of twelve Jin-made 75 mountain guns. However, it was only an infantry regiment with the Japanese army.
The equipment and artillery are roughly the same. But they still have division-level artillery troops, and there are aircraft in the sky to support the battle. Otherwise, how can our army retreat again and again, and I just wish we could not attack their arrogant arrogance."
"Haha, what Commander Zhao said is right." Liu Lang laughed out loud at the wrong time. Ignoring Zhao Shoushan's glare, Liu Lang continued: "Arrogance, yes, it is arrogance. Because of their sharp artillery, the little Japanese fought with the wind.
We are used to fighting, sir, why don't we make a bet and put a company's equipment on it to see how they will attack my Niangziguan defense zone?"
The two generals looked at each other for a moment and did not speak for a while.
The future general shook his head and smiled bitterly: "No bet, no bet. Although I don't know where your kid's information came from, you are famous for never fighting unprepared battles. It took a lot of effort for me to get rid of a rich man like you."
The land has been allocated here, and I want to cheat it back from me, but there is no way."
The future general's premonition was absolutely correct. Liu Tuanzuo never fought an unprepared battle. In the Battle of Hebei, the arrogant Japanese invaders who were invincible were destined not to let their entire army attack Niangzi Pass. Of course, there were also
It has to do with their tactical characteristics.
"In my judgment, the Japanese invaders called the Western Front Army divided into three groups..." Liu Lang picked up two red arrows in the horrified eyes of the two generals and placed them on the south side a hundred miles away from Niangzi Pass.
He picked up two red arrows and placed them in front of Snowflake Mountain and Niangziguan respectively.
What Liu Lang said is exactly what the Japanese army will definitely do in the future.
In the past, their troops were divided into three groups. Two groups, the 108th Division and the 109th Division, went south along the Ping-Han Line to pursue the retreating national army and drew a super large arc to flank Shanxi.
The 20th Division was the main force attacking Niangzi Pass.
In other words, the maximum strength of the Japanese army in the Niangziguan area was only more than 25,000. However, these 25,000 Japanese troops made the 100,000 Chinese troops in time and space suffer a lot, resulting in more than 20,000 casualties.
At the cost, thousands of Japanese invaders were killed and wounded, and eventually Niangzi Pass was lost. In the end, due to roundabout attacks by two other groups of Japanese invaders, Shouyang was lost, and the entire Niangzi Pass battle ended in failure.
"And the Japanese invaders who attack our Niangziguan defense area will definitely divide their troops into two groups. One group will attack the main defense area of Niangziguan, and the other group will attack Snowflake Mountain and Wululing. The total strength of the Japanese army on the Western Front is only more than 50,000. After passing
If we divide our troops, the number that can attack our Niangziguan defense area will never exceed 30,000. In other words, there will be at most one infantry brigade on one battlefield. If we can withstand the Japanese invaders' attack on these two battlefields, the Japanese invaders will defeat the other two
The army can just wait for the four divisions of the 26th Route Army and the 22nd Army to deal with them." Liu Lang talked confidently.
"Our 17th Division will defend Snow Flower Mountain and Fulu Ridge. Commander Liu, where do you want to go?" A trace of determination flashed in Zhao Shoushan's eyes hidden behind his glasses.
"Hehe, this is why I asked Mr. Zhao to come with me to sit here with Mr. Chen today." Liu Lang smiled slightly and said in shock: "I have asked the commander of the second theater, Commander Yan, for an order.
The independent regiment serves as a reserve force and conducts mobile operations in the theater."
The two generals stared wide-eyed. What is going on?
Since ancient times, before a war, only those who were invited to fight as a front-line sharp knife force have never been heard of, but I have never heard of anyone who invited himself to be a reserve force. Is this considered a fear of war?
But if the Battle of the Great Wall had not yet begun, Liu Lang, who had clearly ordered the whole country to electrify the entire army not to take a step back and co-exist with the position under the pressure of a reorganized division, would be afraid of fighting, but they did not believe it.
Liu Lang's next words shocked the two of them.
"Both officers, please don't misunderstand me, Liu Lang, because in my eyes, Niangziguan, Snowflake Mountain and even Fulu Ridge are not the main battlefields." Liu Lang continued.
"Okay, Liu Lang. Well, the 17th Division has to fight a small Japanese infantry brigade. It's not considered the main battlefield. There are two divisions of the 27th Route Army and two divisions of Zeng Wanzhong's army in the main defense area of Niangziguan.
A division, that can't be considered the main battlefield? Then where do you think the main battlefield is?" Lieutenant General Zhao said, holding on to his glasses that were about to fall to the ground.
"Because the main battlefield in my eyes is here." Liu Lang knocked on the table with a smile.
"Where?" The two generals were confused.
Liu Tuanzuo was knocking on the table, but there was no map there.
"This is the place where you and I are going to eat a lot of fat meat. In a few days, we will have another meal of "fat meat", but it was stolen from the little devils." Liu Lang said confidently.
Because this is Qigen Village! The first battle of the 386th Brigade against the Japanese, where Liu Shuai and General Chen shocked all the officers of the Second Theater Command.
"Pfft..." The future general almost spit out his tea before he had time to swallow it. He was still remembering Liu Tuanzuo, who he had once won.
If he hadn't been quick enough to jump behind Lieutenant General Zhao.
