As a result, the battle did not go as smoothly as the old Japanese guard Iinuma had expected. His offensive troops only had a brief contact with the Eighth Route Army, and were suppressed by the Eighth Route Army's defense fortifications and powerful firepower.
The Japanese army and the Eighth Route Army's troops heading south from Baoding started a fierce battle. The two sides went back and forth around multiple positions on the front line, engaging in a tug-of-war. The stalemate lasted for a long time, but the battle was fruitless.
The Japanese army's always unfavorable aerial firepower reinforcements could not turn the tide of the war.
In addition, the Eighth Route Army deliberately dragged the Japanese army to fight. While retaining sufficient depth, the ambush forces along the way were arranged in echelons and deployed layer by layer.
The Japanese army simply could not end the battle in a short time.
Soon after, the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the first division and Lao Wei's new brigade in the fifth division attacked Shimen and entered Xingtai, which was the base camp of the old Japanese soldier Iinuma Shou.
Immediately started playing the tactic of stealing.
This also gave Iinuma Mamoru a step down - if you don't return to your home base, the Eighth Route Army will kill you!
For the Eighth Route Army, it will be difficult to completely wipe out the Japanese advance group to the north after it is launched. Once the main force of the Japanese is close to Shijiazhuang, it will be difficult to cut off the retreat. It is better to force them back.
As expected, Mamoru Iinuma, an old devil, did not live up to his expectations. He saw that the base camp was stolen, and the frontline operations were not going smoothly. The Eighth Route Army's fire was fierce, and there were air fire reinforcements. His troops suffered heavy casualties, but they never made any progress or made any progress.
I no longer have the ambition to make progress.
At that time, the Fourth Army was the first to break the situation, making a breakthrough in the Cangzhou area and approaching Pingjin, a small front. As a result, all the troops and materials that were supposed to be transported to the Baoding battlefield were sent to Peiping.
Including that small-scale battle, before we took those counties and towns, we quickly looted the supplies and equipment your empire had hoarded in the city. Then, just like bandits crossing the border, we quickly withdrew and hid in the base areas of these hills.
Went out.
The catch in the plains of Hebei is too little, just give it up when you see trouble!
The Japanese General Staff Headquarters originally planned to mobilize the main forces of Central China and the Kwantung Army to provide reinforcements to Central China, encircling and annihilating the rampant main force of the Fourth Route Army in one fell swoop!
The speed was so sloppy that the Japanese army had no time to react.
After saying that, Li Yunlong patted Lao Wang on the shoulder with a proud look and said: "Brother, study hard, study less, and gain more knowledge, so that you can go further!"
Just lead the big Japanese by the nose, keeping the Japanese in a passive position.
So a mechanized brigade was quickly transferred to Peiping to assist in the defense.
When Commander Wang heard that, he was very happy: "What a shame, Old Li! He really doesn't have any ink in his belly, but he can quote scriptures!
As soon as Commander Wang heard that, he immediately glared at Li Yunlong and cursed: "You said Lao Li, he is more like Lao Kong Lao.
The Kwantung Army mobile brigade arrived in front. The armored troops and heavy artillery troops took up positions to retreat against the 386th Brigade's position. They had just made no progress. The Kwantung Army troops in front faced the 386th Brigade Armored Force. The Fourth Route Army Air Force
On reinforcements, the counterattack was beaten back.
Before success, each unit left behind dummies and fortifications and evacuated one after another.
Qu Xinde even scolded: "What a son of a bitch, the 14th Division of the Kwantung Army. I will be unlucky for four lifetimes if I encounter us. We are Lao Chiang's team, with hundreds of thousands of people even with a large Japanese division."
Eat all the balls or drop them.
At the same time, before the small battles surrounding the Baoding area began one after another, the various troops also retreated when the situation was bad, and quickly transferred the captured materials and equipment before shrinking their forces again and abandoning some important county towns captured from the Japanese army.
Townships, enter and return to the base area.
We avoid the counties, towns and towns that are the key defense points of your little Japanese empire and just push our hands to these remote mountainous areas and rural areas.
I'll probably ignore you that time too.
We can always compare with me, right?"
That doesn't mean a sticky style of play. If you attack the enemy, you must defend it, and if you attack the enemy, you must fight for it.
Qu Xinde and Captain Wang immediately agreed.
A lonely tree cannot support itself.
Captain Wang immediately became angry when he heard this: "Grandma, Li Yunlong, when was it his turn to teach you a lesson? When I was the commander of the regiment, the eldest son still knew where to pee and pinch you in the mud, Huang
You big boy, do you dare to test whether my sword is sharp? Let’s see!”
As I said that, I patted the Yishi Zhongzhan I was sitting in and said to Li Yunlong beside me: "Even if I drive a car, even if I drive that tank, I can drive to Peking City to see the moat in one afternoon. I'm really happy!"
”
Even Li Yunlong is an example.
It's a pity that the Japanese's wishful thinking was clearly understood by Mr. Liu.
The two sides launched a non-combat battle in the north of Baoding City. At the end, the 27th Division was the main attack, and was unable to retreat by the main force of the 129th Division.
That change of concept is subtle.
Li Yunlong was so frightened that he quickly jumped onto the tank that was already retreating at a fast speed. The armored soldiers who were resting around looked at Commander Wang chasing Li Yunlong and cheered together - Come on, come on, hit me, hit me!
What does the Fourth Route Army think about this?
Kong Jie said: "The wisdom of us Chinese people is to be able to dry up the swamp and fish. The counties, towns and towns occupied by the Japanese are not chickens to us. We have taken the eggs and left when it is time. When the chickens lay the eggs, we can go and get them."
No more.
If we make such a fuss, the Japanese can only shrink their troops and guard the counties, towns and important transportation lines. As for mopping up, we simply don’t have the strength and foundation."
The siege troops also withdrew from the county.
He said that he has recently been reading Chinese history books to learn about the war wisdom of the ancients. Is he probably reading Jin Ping Mei?"
Before Iinuma Mamoru's troops were forced away, the remaining Japanese army, the Nankami Group, was still fighting hard. When the situation reached that point, many Japanese officers in the Minamigami Group believed that they should choose to evacuate in time.
It happened that the base camp was attacked by surprise, which gave him enough excuse to lead his troops back for reinforcements.
After the Japanese launched a general offensive, the teacher gave the order to launch a counterattack against the Japanese retreating group to the north, forcing the Japanese retreating group's attack line to retreat forward.

Kong Jieshen took it seriously and said: "Yes, a small autumn offensive can at least buy 1 to 2 years for the stable development of our Fourth Route Army base area.
Qu Xinde said: "You are Huang Taiji's Qing soldiers now, and the person sitting outside the Forbidden City is also Chongzhen. You have to go slower. When the Japs gather around, I'm afraid they will be surrounded by the Japs' iron wall. Then we will be in trouble." When the Japanese city defense troops in Baoding saw the Fourth Route Army launching a decisive battle, they dared not leave the city.
If we continue to fight, the Japanese Kwantung Army, the Eighteenth Army, and the troops directly under the China Dispatch Army Headquarters will continue to rush to your side for reinforcements. You will have no spare power to retreat and fight with us again.
On the contrary, because they pushed back too slowly, they fell into the traps set by the Fourth Route Army along the way and fell into a bitter battle with constant complaints.
Of course, we have to wait until the troops have rested and recuperated before returning to the Taihang base area. Is there any information on my marching direction?
That being said is the smallest gain we can gain from launching that battle!"
The two found Kong Jie again and asked, "Old Kong, you went back after fighting the last battle in Zhuozhou? Don't you have any other arrangements?"
In a small-scale positional battle, as long as there is no orderly retreat and no orderly advance, it is difficult for both sides to achieve a huge disparity in the battle loss ratio. Only when one side is disorganized, loses order, is pursued by the tail, and is divided and surrounded can it achieve bad results. The Japanese sent Wu to Zhuozhou to stabilize the fortifications and continue the fierce battle with the Fourth Route Army.
But the composition of the Japanese army was so small that there were no two mixed brigades of the Kwantung Army, the 27th Division, the newly formed 63rd Division directly under the front army, the Cangzhou Mobile Regiment, the Zhuozhou Infantry Garrison Brigade, and the small field force was launched
In the past, it almost contained the participating troops of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei and 129th Division.
He is capable of this kind of one-shot deal that kills the goose and lays the eggs!"
In the end, the Japanese Southward Group escaped with a small amount of mechanized equipment. The North China security forces, the Korean puppet troops, and the Northeast Crusade team who cooperated in the fight were in misery, and basically all of them ran away.
Qu Xin, who had been studying the map, replied: "According to the intelligence we received, Xiaojia looked at the map. Outside the few small armies that the Japanese came to reinforce, the ones who dared to pursue in depth were not the Kwantung Army troops, but usually the 17th Division.
, in the Battle of Lanfeng that year, he even dared to run rampant among the hundreds of thousands of small troops of the national army. He was so arrogant that he could never be seen in his life.
This was playing into Kong Jie's hands. The troops were waiting for the first wave of Japanese reinforcements between Zhuozhou and Peiping. Commander Liu had not yet arranged a strategic reserve. The armored troops of the 7th Cavalry Division came straight from the other direction.
Come over here, attack from both sides, and take the chestnuts directly from the fire.
Li Yunlong said: "It's not the end of April yet, and the troops haven't been fighting continuously for a month. If you had been using railway lines to transport armored troops, you would have been dead long ago.
It stands to reason that the Fourth Route Army will have fewer foreigners when they hit it.
If that big army of Japanese soldiers dares to come to our base area, I will come up with all the bones and dregs that we can chew on!"
Fighting, the two sides found it difficult to break through the other side's current positions in the short term, so they were adjusting their deployments, constantly calling for reinforcements and material assistance.
As a Japanese staff officer said at the operational meeting of the North China Front Headquarters: "Those damn little cunning people of the Fourth Army, have you heard that our lowest combat policy is to surround the cities with the countryside and seize the national power first."
/p>
The result is that it is doomed to fail.
However, because Okabe was suffering from a chronic illness and went to the hospital for treatment, he saw that the troops had evacuated to Zhuozhou. Since it was time to retreat and attack, they couldn't defend Zhuozhou, right?
Coupled with the flank containment of the 35th Army troops who joined the battlefield before Zhangjiakou was lost, as well as the troops from the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, the two sides launched a small-scale positional battle.
How about you think of a way to engage me again and charge some interest?
A few people made up their mind to transfer supplies first and follow the main force to the base area, leaving only some guerrilla troops in various places to contain the Japanese army.
Cities including Shijiazhuang, Xiaotong, and Jinmen that were completely conquered by the Fourth Route Army successfully completed their transfer and evacuation under the cover secured by the Fourth Route Army troops in Baoding.
Li Yunlong said happily: "It's like we go to a banquet, and the banquet has been eaten, so there's no point in staying here? When the banquet is finished, we won't go to eat again last time!"
What does that mean? It means that Huang Taiji understands the art of war and understands that this is the best time to capture Peiping.
Li Yunlong immediately shook his head and replied: "Back then, Huang Taiji's two small armies attacked the Ming Dynasty. They took advantage of Mongolia and landed in Shandong. The two small armies were invincible wherever they went. No one could stop them. They continuously attacked the city and captured countless territories. They captured such a small army.
The Ming Dynasty dared to send troops out of the city to fight in the field. With that kind of advantage, I didn't take Peiping directly, but went home to spend the winter with the spoils.
I also know whether there is really no ink outside the belly, or is it just bragging?
Commander Wang felt that he had no regrets. When I was moving to Peiping, I received a telegram from my division commander. Looking at the Japanese soldiers who were waiting in full formation in Peiping, I cursed willingly: "My grandma, we are just a little away."
, just that little distance away. You can push back to the city of Beiping!"
The two had fun for a while and then prepared to evacuate.
This time, several generals formed a temporary joint command before following the troops to join together. Although there was no clear commander-in-chief, we still agreed and wanted to ask Kong Jie less for his opinion.
Or take advantage of the arrival of the first snow in winter and take the materials and equipment you captured back to the base area to sum up your experience and retrain the troops."
However, as the offensive of the Japanese retreating group to the north was slowed down, and even the return of reinforcements to the small front was stopped, the Japanese army, which was originally preparing to retreat from the north to the south to form a pincer offensive, was left with only the troops heading south, mainly the 27th Division.<
/p>
I heard that the Japanese Kwantung Army spent a lot of money to come to you for a decisive battle, but you are confronting us head-on. If we come to your territory, you can choke us to death outside the cesspool one by one."
Ding Wei comprehensively analyzed: "Our Fourth Route Army has no solid base and cannot fight out or withdraw at any time, but the Japanese army can do it. Important counties like Xiaotong and Zhangjiakou are definitely abandoned by the Japanese army. As long as the Japanese army
We still want to withdraw from China.
This is because Chongzhen is capable and Huang Taiji is stupid. If it were you, you would definitely do that!"
Captain Wang is not just saying that he is willing, but he actually has a clear understanding of the situation at hand. It is indeed time to continue to go deep alone and push back to Peiping.
How do those bastards look like soldiers? They are just like a group of bandits fighting and robbing houses."
At this time, the Japanese southbound group could only agree with Okabe's request to launch a weak attack with the northern retreating group at the same time, hoping to reinforce Peiping together before the Fourth Route Army's siege crisis was resolved.
This made it even more difficult for the Japanese army to speak.
In order to support the retreating group from the north, the Japanese group went deep into the Fourth Route Army's defense lines. Naturally, they were baptized by the Fourth Route Army's new tank units and small-scale rocket launchers that were ready to go, as well as the Yan'an and Baotou regional aviation units that had not yet joined.
on the verge of collapse, discarding a small amount of baggage and heavy weapons and advancing towards Zhuozhou.
The Fourth Route Army was still fully mechanized, so it could only divide and destroy some of the Japanese and puppet troops, and then pick up the materials abandoned by the Japanese, the heavy weapons that were taken away, and some damaged tanks that could not be repaired in a short time.
Armored vehicles, not cars yet.
If we want to eat up the Japs’ 14th Division, we probably have to make some preparations, as there won’t be enough bait for the fish to take the bait.”
At the same time, with the advantage of military strength, an ambush was set up in the north direction.
