Chapter 1016 Li Yunlong who doesnt play by common sense!
Japanese country.
Prime Minister's Office.
"Reporting to the Prime Minister, General Neiji Okamura, commander of the North China Front, just sent a telegram that the Eighth Route Army North Road Attack Group has bypassed Zhangjiakou and is approaching Peiping."
"The 27th Division has been dispatched to intercept."
"General Okamura requested the base camp to issue orders to the Kwantung Army and the 11th Army, asking them to speed up and rush to North China."
Major General Sanada Soichiro reported to Tojo Hideji.
Tojo Eiji has been having a hard time recently.
Although the Japanese army made a fortune by attacking Southeast Asia at the end of last year and the beginning of this year, the territory of the Japanese Empire has never been larger, which makes all Japanese, including Tenchu and Tojo, feel bloated.
I feel that it is easy to unify Asia and conquer the United States.
However, as the war situation changed, the successive defeats on the front line were like basins of cold water poured on the heads of Locust and Tojo.
First, in North China, the Japanese 1st Army, 5th Division and other main forces were completely wiped out.
And in the Pacific Theater, the Battle of Midway, the Japanese naval combined fleet suffered heavy losses and lost 4 main aircraft carriers.
Subsequently, the Eighth Route Army's long-range heavy bombers bombed Tokyo and the aircraft carrier Xianghe, dropping countless leaflets.
It made the whole Japanese people panic.
At present, in the North China battlefield, the Eighth Route Army has organized a larger combat offensive, hoping to regain North China in one fell swoop.
In the Pacific battlefield, the United States intensified its submarine warfare, and the losses of Japanese naval ships continued to increase.
The changes in the internal situation of the country that had been depleted by the war also put Tojo on the verge of political bankruptcy.
A series of defeats led to people constantly hoping that Tojo would commit suicide, and there were also people who wanted to assassinate Hideki Tojo.
Vice Admiral Takagi and others wanted to ambush Tojo with machine guns.
The Army was not monolithic. Major Tsunoda, who had just been transferred back to the base camp from China, and Tatsukuma Ushijima, the president of the Tokyo branch of the East Asia Alliance, conspired to throw a bullet at Tojo when Tojo's car slowed down around a corner in the square in front of the Imperial Palace near Suda.
A specially made hydrocyanic acid bomb.
As a result, Tojo now has to be careful whenever he goes out for fear of being assassinated.
“Where did the Eighth Route Army’s assistance come from?”
Tojo Hideji asked in a deep voice.
Thousands of heavy artillery, more than 500 heavy tanks, hundreds of the world's most advanced fighter planes, and long-range strategic bombers that make the entire local defense and control department helpless.
Without these heavy weapons and equipment, how could China's Eighth Route Army have defeated the Locust Army?
It doesn’t matter if the U.S. Navy defeats the Imperial Navy and retreats steadily.
The United States has strong industrial strength, but building warships is like making dumplings.
And the Eighth Route Army's bunch of mud-legged people in the ravines don't even have a decent arsenal, but they can still produce heavy artillery, heavy tanks and advanced fighter jets like dumplings.
Why?
"Currently under investigation."
Major General Sanada Soichiro lowered his head and answered.
"idiot."
Tojo Hideji suddenly became furious and cursed:
"After two years of investigation, I don't even know where the enemy's weapons came from. It's just rubbish."
"Is this how you are loyal to the Locust?"
"It is simply a disgrace to the Japanese Empire's locust army!"
Hearing this, Tojo couldn't help spitting out the fragrance, and felt a tightness in his chest that he couldn't spit out or swallow.
Tojo Hideji is quite frustrated just thinking about it.
Even though he is the first person among the locusts in the sky, he is below one person and above ten thousand people, and his scenery is infinite.
But only he himself knows the pain involved.
The United States defeated the Imperial Navy and retreated steadily.
Those idiots beat the Imperial Army back steadily.
There are still people in the country who always want to assassinate him.
Nishio Hisao, Ishihara Kanji, Dohi Madoka Kenji and their group had long been looking forward to his downfall.
The Eighth Route Army bombed Tokyo, which made Tian Locust furious and extremely dissatisfied with him.
All kinds of unfavorable situations made Tojo furious. He stepped forward and slapped Major General Sanada Soichiro in the face. This slap Tojo used so hard that the black round-framed glasses of Major General Sanada Soichiro were all broken.
Fly away.
Even Major General Soichiro Sanada was knocked to the ground.
"Hi."
Major General Sanada Soichiro had no choice but to stand up, put his head in front of Tojo again, and bowed his head loudly.
The intelligence department and the special higher education department are not doing well. Why are you slapping me, the chief of communications staff of the Army?
"Order the main force of the Kwantung Army and the main force of the 11th Army to speed up and rush to North China."
"Order the intelligence department and the Special High School Section to fully investigate the Eighth Route Army's aid channels."
"Within a month, if the source of the Eighth Route Army's weapons cannot be found."
"The Chief of Intelligence Staff and the Chief of the Special High School Section performed their own disembowelments to thank Tian Locust."
Tojo Hideji gave the order in a cold tone.
If someone wants him to die, then he will let the person who failed to do the job die first.
If Okamura Neji continues to lose the battle, Okamura Neji will also die.
"Hi."
The intelligence staff member suddenly lowered his head and turned to leave.
I was secretly glad that I didn't have to have a caesarean section to apologize.
The source of the weapons of the Eighth Route Army has not been investigated for two years. How can it be found in one month?
…
Peking.
Iron Lion Alley.
North China Front Army Headquarters.
"Your Excellency, General."
"According to intelligence from the front line, the main force of the New Regiment of the Eighth Route Army and the main force of the Eighth Route Army in Jizhong are only three days away from Baoding."
In the operations hall, Suejimi reported to Neji Okamura.
"Nani?" Neji Okamura's expression suddenly changed, "The Eighth Route Army is marching so fast? Didn't you say it takes seven days for the Eighth Route Army to reach Baoding? Only two days have passed."
Currently, the Eighth Route Army is equipped with a large number of trucks and tanks, and some of its main units are motorized.
The straight-line distance between Shimen City and Baoding is 126 kilometers, and the highway distance is about 150 kilometers.
It takes about 3 days for infantry to reach the destination by rapid march, but if the road conditions are good, trucks and tanks can reach it in one day.
The Japanese army not only sent troops to blow up bridges and damage roads.
They also imitated the Eighth Route Army's sparrow tactics and sent some Japanese and puppet troops to harass the main force of the Eighth Route Army.
However, the engineers of the Eighth Route Army were of extremely high quality, and Li Yunlong could also ask Boss Chen to airdrop bridge repair materials.
There are not many bridges in plain terrain, and with the high quality of engineers and the fact that materials can be airdropped, the bridges that were blown up by the Japanese were quickly repaired.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The special forces and scouts of the Eighth Route Army took the lead in clearing the way for the large forces, making the Eighth Route Army advance very quickly.
Much faster than Okamura Neji expected!
This made Okamura Neji somewhat unexpected.
"When will the local reinforcements arrive?"
Okamura Neji asked in a deep voice.
"Arrived at Tianjin Port in about three days."
You Mojing Sanchai said:
"The transport fleet also has to guard against air attacks by the Eighth Route Army, so its speed is relatively slow."
This is a transport ship for transporting troops. One transport ship can transport one thousand to three thousand soldiers.
If it was bombed by the Eighth Route Army, the consequences would be disastrous.
Although the transport ship is protected by the naval fleet, the Eighth Route Army's bombers cannot be underestimated.
Especially the kind of super bomb that looks like it has eyes, which may not even be able to withstand battleships of the Yamato and Musashi levels.
The Japanese naval fleet had to be cautious when traveling on the sea and constantly changed its route to prevent air attacks.
"Ask the three divisions supported by the mainland to immediately go to support Baoding after arriving at Tianjin Port."
"Youmo Jun, please follow me to Baoding tonight to command the Locust Army to fight against the Locust Alliance Army."
Okamura Neji's eyes narrowed and he made a life-changing decision.
In the current situation, the 27th Division may not be able to withstand the attack of the Eighth Route Army's North Attack Group.
At this time, Okamura Neji had three choices.
First, the North China Front Army Headquarters stayed in Peiping and allowed the Eighth Route Army North Attack Group to attack.
The second is to lead the headquarters to flee to Chengde and remotely control the locust army and puppet army in Baoding.
The third is to lead the headquarters to Baoding and personally command the locust army and puppet army to fight against the Eighth Route Army.
Whether to be a coward for the rest of his life or to be a hero for a few days, Okamura Neji chose the latter.
Anyway, if Baoding and Zhangjiakou fall, he will have to commit suicide by caesarean section.
If Baoding and Zhangjiakou are lost, Peking will also be lost.
The biggest problem in Baoding now is the unstable military morale, lack of unified command, and insufficient troops.
Although there are 200,000 Locust Alliance troops assisting in the battle, everyone understands.
They are just a bunch of cannon fodder. Not only do they have no fighting ability, but they also have to worry about these locusts joining forces and defecting to the Communist Party at all times.
If a few people like Sun Liangcheng appear, Baoding will be lost within a few days.
At that time, it would be meaningless for him to stay in Peking and flee to Chengde.
After a pause, Okamura Neiji continued: "Yousue-kun, please come with me to Baoding. I need your help."
"Hi."
Youmo Jingsan's anus suddenly tightened, but on his face was a look of determination to follow him to death, and he paused to express his stance.
"Yamamoto-kun."
Finally, Okamura Neji looked at Yamamoto Kazuki again:
"Yamamoto-kun, you stay at the Beiping headquarters, but I can only leave you one brigade of troops."
"If the North Route Attack Force of the Eighth Route Army attacks Peiping, you will immediately lead the troops and transfer to Chengde with all the documents and equipment of the North China Front Army."
Okamura Neji's expression and tone were as if he was explaining the aftermath.
Yamamoto Kazuki also knew that this time, the General was not prepared to leave a way out for him.
burn one's boats.
Be prepared to accomplish your feats in one battle.
If defeated again, more than 200,000 locust troops would be killed, and Okamura Neji himself would have no shame in continuing to live.
"Hi."
Yamamoto Kazuki really wanted to go to Baoding with Okamura, but he thought that he was also needed as deputy chief of staff in the rear, so he suddenly expressed his stance.
…
New group.
Frontline General Headquarters.
"How to let the North Road Attack Group quickly enter the North China Plain?"
Li Yunlong's eyes dropped, staring at the map on the table, thinking, and talking to himself.
Logically speaking, this is an issue that Ding Wei and Kong Jie should consider.
As the frontline commander, he only needs to give orders to Ding Wei and Kong Jie.
How the specific battle is fought is not his responsibility.
However, the Japanese reinforcements were rushing towards North China in a hurry.
Ding Wei and Kong Jie's troops arrived in Peiping one day early.
The Eighth Route Army's chances of winning were even greater.
"A Japanese second-class division is naturally no match for the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment, but the Japanese have built complete defenses in this area."
"It will take three to seven days to block the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment."
"In addition, it will take time for the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment to reach Peiping."
"Seven days have passed since we attacked Shimen City."
"The Japanese Kwantung Army and the reinforcements of the 11th Army are probably not far from North China."
Chief of Staff Wang Dehou also looked at the map and analyzed.
The Japanese 11th Army was blocked by the main force of the 129th Division, so there was not much of a problem.
However, Li Yunlong wanted to deal with the Japanese in North China first, and then the Kwantung Army.
If the Japs in North China were allowed to join the main force of the Kwantung Army.
That is equivalent to Li Yunlong preparing one table of dishes and two tables of guests coming.
There are two tables of guests, and there is no table of guests to kill.
But the problem is not big. The Eighth Route Army headquarters has prepared sufficient reserves for Li Yunlong.
However, Li Yunlong still wanted to defeat them one by one.
In this way, the casualties and pressure on the troops will be much smaller.
The Japanese have a very strong will to fight.
Although the Eighth Route Army had some experience in dealing with tunnel tactics.
However, the casualties of the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment will also be considerable.
If the Independent Group and the New Second Group stay in Huailai County for too long.
Once the Japanese 1st Division, 26th Division and 71st Division launched an attack from behind the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment.
The consequences could be disastrous.
Now we must find a way to enable the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment to enter the North China Plain as soon as possible.
"Send interleaved troops to bypass Baoding and go straight to the rear of the Japanese 27th Division in Huailai County?"
Deputy leader Xing Zhiguo provided an idea.
Wang Dehou used a scale to calculate the distance from the current location of the main force of the new regiment to Huailai County on the map.
"Our place is more than 250 kilometers away from Huailai County, and this road is an area occupied by Japanese troops. The intersecting troops cannot go there by car."
"If the infantry is not good enough, based on the infantry's rapid march speed of 60 kilometers per day, it will take our intersecting troops at least 6 days to reach Huailai County."
Wang Dehou said.
Obviously, the method of sending intervening troops to support the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment to flank the Japanese 27th Division would not work.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In six days, maybe the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment have broken through the defense line of the Japanese 27th Division.
"Send our infantry battalion, naturally we won't rush there, but don't forget, in addition to infantry, we also have heavenly soldiers and generals!"
Li Yunlong glanced at everyone and felt confident.
At this point, everyone immediately understood.
"Commander, do you mean to send paratroopers to the rear of the 27th Division?"
Zhang Dabiao's eyes lit up.
The main force of the New Regiment will definitely be unable to reach Huailai County in a short time, forming a pincer attack on the Japanese with the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment, but the New Regiment still has paratroopers.
As long as the transport aircraft can reach the place, the new regiment of paratroopers can also reach it.
And it can be reached within a few hours.
They had never commanded paratroopers in combat before, so when thinking about tactics, they were still thinking in the same way as before.
However, at the request of Boss Chen, Li Yunlong had to constantly study new tactics for new and big business.
Of course, this also included Political Commissar Zhao, whose expression remained as usual. He had long guessed that Li Yunlong was going to use the parachute battalion.
"That's right!" Li Yunlong nodded.
The paratrooper battalion of the New First Regiment is the second battalion of the original division of the New First Regiment, and the battalion commander is Zhao Youliang.
The combat effectiveness of this battalion is second only to the main battalion of the New Regiment.
The battalion's famous battle was that it participated in the ambush of the 3rd Infantry Regiment and the 5th Heavy Artillery Regiment of the 1st Division, and achieved the result of annihilating the two Japanese regiments.
Zhang Dabiao suddenly laughed: "Commander, you are not following common sense. A powerful force suddenly appeared behind the Japanese 27th Division, fighting against the 27th Division with the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment.
Forming a pincer attack, I believe that the 27th Division will soon be defeated or even completely annihilated."
