Three hundred and fortieth three chapters sell iron
Since Li Mingfeng dares to carry out the empty city strategy in the rear and dares to poke the hornet's nest of Ye Baishou, Chaoyang, and Beipiao, it shows that in his heart, he does not even want a draw in this battle. For a person who has been patient for a long time and has accumulated enough strength in his heart,
It is said that once it breaks out, the energy will definitely reach the sky.
After issuing several orders in succession, Li Mingfeng focused his main attention on the northeast of Ke Jianping. At this time, with the arrival of reinforcements from both sides, the battlefield had expanded to the east of the Bengbeng River and the north of the Jianping-Chaoyang Highway.
On the battlefield west of Beidawa to Louzishan.
He told Cao Yafan, the commander of the 1st Mountain Division of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, who had rushed to the northeastern battlefield of Jianping to command the operation. As for the Japanese troops on the northeastern battlefield of Jianping, they should first deal with the Japanese reinforcements from the Xinhui battlefield. As for the Japanese troops who had already fallen into chaos,
The original Japanese army first divided and surrounded them. What he meant was to attack the main branches first and then cut off the trunks.
The main force of the Eighth Division, which the Japanese army launched in the entire Western Liaoning battlefield this time, is now on this battlefield. As long as the enemies in the Northeast Jianping battlefield can be eliminated in the shortest time, this battle will be nothing for him.
It is equivalent to firmly grasping the initiative in one's own hands.
But it was not easy for Li Mingfeng to win this battle in a short period of time. This area is where the main mountain range of Nuruerhu Mountain is located, and most of the mountains are around 100 meters above sea level. There are even quite a few
Some of the mountain peaks are around a thousand meters above sea level.
Fighting in this kind of terrain, the entire battlefield cannot be integrated into one. It is destined to be divided into pieces by the direction of the mountains. Regardless of which direction the Japanese army or the Anti-Japanese Alliance chooses to reinforce the Jianping Northeast battlefield, it will actually be
This is a mountain battle. This kind of battle is not easy to resolve in a short time.
The only good thing now is that the two armies are mixed together, and neither one has a big advantage in the terrain. On the battlefield, although the Japanese army controls the commanding heights of this line, Dashuangjianzi Mountain, the follow-up troops are defeated by the Anti-Alliance forces.
The attacking force was divided. And the remaining commanding heights in the surrounding areas were now controlled by the resistance coalition.
On this front, in addition to the original regiment and two battalions of the Advance Army, a regiment of the Anti-Japanese Alliance that originally mainly attacked Jianping was also transferred to this battlefield. A brigade of the Advance Army that took over the Anti-Japanese Alliance's attack on Jianping, except
In addition to leaving a regiment to monitor the Jianping garrison, the main force also adopted a large roundabout and outflanking tactic and joined the northeast battlefield of Jianping.
In addition to the previous two fully-manned infantry brigades, the Japanese army also successively deployed one and a half infantry regiments on the Xinhui battlefield. On the entire Jianping battlefield, the current situation is that one and a half regiments of the Anti-Japanese Alliance and two Japanese troops
The infantry brigade was mixed together. The battalion that arrived later and the advancing brigade inserted themselves into the flank of a regiment and a half that the Japanese army threw behind them.
At the same time, in Jianping County, a regiment of the advancing army strengthened an anti-alliance battalion, and faced off with four Japanese infantry squadrons across the Jianping City Wall. The entire battlefield was one of you among me, and you among me. Such a chaotic situation
, Li Mingfeng believed that it was still beneficial to him. It would be difficult to advance one brigade to defeat one and a half Japanese regiments, but if he strengthened one anti-alliance regiment, there shouldn't be any major problems.
Compared to the confident Li Mingfeng, Cao Yafan, who currently has his headquarters on the front line of the racecourse, feels the pressure has doubled. After the start of the Northeast Jianping battlefield, a regiment under his command quickly handed over the original plan to attack Jianping.
The advancing troops who were originally planning to set up an ambush between Jianping and Yebaishou roads quickly rushed to the northeast battlefield of Jianping with a reinforced regiment.
As soon as his troops seized the line from Daiwang Mountain to Luofugou, the Japanese reinforcements from the Xinhui battlefield had already arrived. The two armies immediately started a fierce battle from Daiwang Mountain to Luofugou. Especially the Luo Fugou line.
Behind the front line of Fugou is the Northeast Jianping Battlefield. Once broken through by the Japanese army, the 32nd Regiment, whose original organization has been disrupted, can immediately join the reinforcements.
On the entire battlefield, the enemy and we were engaged in a fierce battle for every hilltop. Under the cover of fierce artillery fire, the Japanese army launched an extremely rare group attack on the front line of Luofugou, its key assault direction. And on the flanks
They also continued to send small groups of troops to try to outflank Luofugou and cut off the connection between Luofugou and Daiwang Mountain.
However, the two regiments of the advancing army that subsequently withdrew from the Jianping battlefield encountered fierce enemy counterattacks at Luojia Shaoguo, Xiaofangshen, and Weijiapuzi, and their progress was very slow. Although the regiment was attached to the mountain artillery battalion,
, and under the cover of the brigade's organic artillery unit, they fought an offensive battle. However, due to the constraints of the terrain, the battle situation remained in a stalemate.
The two Japanese infantry brigades on the front lines of Luojia Shaoguo, Xiaofangshen and Weijiapu were extremely fierce. They not only defended extremely tenaciously, but also continuously launched tactical counterattacks in squadron formation. The advancing army fought hard for many times and paid a lot of effort.
Despite the price, the deadlock has never been broken.
Faced with the stalemate, Cao Yafan gritted his teeth and put all the troops in his hands. He commanded the reserve team of the last battalion in his hands, and under the cover of five mountain guns, opened the bayonet on the automatic rifle and started from the front line of Daluotuogou.
Launched a swift and violent attack on the Japanese flanks on the entire Jianping East Battlefield.
After a night of fierce fighting, they successively broke through the Japanese positions in Dahelong and Pingfangdian, and defeated the Japanese flank positions in Daiwang Mountain in one fell swoop, cutting off the connection between the Japanese troops in Daiwang Mountain and the front-line Japanese troops in Luofugou. However, when they arrived at Xiaoshiwelwopu
On the front line, it is because its vitality has been basically exhausted and it can no longer attack.
After the battalion was deployed to the front line of Xiaoshiwopu, the Japanese troops on the Luofugou front line quickly drew out two infantry squadrons. Under the cover of a mountain artillery squadron, they continuously launched counterattacks against the positions captured by the battalion, trying to push the battalion back.
The troops were defeated and the contact with the Japanese troops on the front line of Daiwang Mountain was reestablished.
At the same time, behind Luofugou, the Japanese troops on the Jianping East battlefield were also unable to gather together. Based on the current units of each organization, except for leaving some troops to hold back the surrounding anti-alliance forces, the rest of the troops
They are also desperately trying to break through to the east, trying to get closer to the reinforcements.
Faced with the changing situation, Cao Yafan hesitated for a long time and issued a general attack order on the Jianping East Battlefield. On the flanks, the two advancing regiments were also repeatedly fighting with the Japanese troops in front of them, trying to speed up the attack.
, completed the outflanking of the Japanese reinforcements.
The stalemate in Jianping's entire Northeastern battlefield made both Li Mingfeng and Lieutenant General Yokoyama Shizuo unable to sit still. Looking at the stalemate, Li Mingfeng gritted his teeth and released the last two battalions in his hands.
.Launch a forcible attack from the rear and flank of the Japanese army from the Louzishan line to the Gunner Yingzi and Deli Hut line.
After investing the last reserve force in his hand, Li Mingfeng gave Cao Yafan on the front line and the brigade commander of the advancing army the order for the final general attack. At the same time, he transferred all the artillery on hand to the northeast of Jianping to participate in the battle.
To enhance the firepower of frontline troops as much as possible.
At this point in the war, Li Mingfeng could be said to have sold the pot. At this moment, in his deep area, except for two infantry battalions, a cavalry battalion from the Anti-Japanese Alliance, and an infantry battalion from the advancing army, there was almost no soldier left.
.Even the lightly wounded in the hospital, as long as they could hold a gun, were mobilized again and stationed at various key points to perform defense tasks.
Compared to Li Mingfeng, who invested the last reserve force in his hand, Lieutenant General Shizuo Yokoyama did nothing but continuously issue orders to the commander of the 8th Infantry Regiment of the 8th Division who was commanding from the front, ordering him to do all he could to get rid of the surrounding enemies at all costs.
The enemy troops moved south quickly, but they were unable to dispatch even a single soldier for reinforcements.
Compared with the inability to withdraw the main force of the Eighth Division participating in the Northeast Battlefield of Jianping and the delay in completing the task of reinforcing Beipiao. What made Lieutenant General Yokoyama Shizuo even more annoyed was that the defenders retreated from the mountains of Sidaoyingzi
, while fighting hard all night with the enemy's blocking troops on the Guanyingzi and Beidawa lines, they failed to break through the enemy's blocking line.
The enemy troops suddenly rushed out from behind and outflanked them from behind, throwing the entire march into disarray. This force, which wanted to outflank the enemy troops around Beipiao, was instead flanked by the enemy troops from both front and rear.
After fighting for a long time in the green mountains, he was unable to escape the invasion of the surrounding enemy troops. On the contrary, he was in a situation where he could not protect himself.
The Chaoyang garrison was outflanked by the enemy's two wings. Instead of being able to go north for rescue, the Chaoyang garrison was blocked at the door by the enemy. Not to mention reinforcing Beipiao, they just wanted to rush out of the enemy's army outside Chaoyang City.
The defense line has little hope so far.
What worries Yokoyama Shizuo most is not whether Chaoyang City can be saved, but Beipiao, which is currently northeast of Chaoyang. Originally, the defenders there had three infantry brigades, but they were transferred away by Lieutenant General Washizu Jinhei in order to reinforce Ye Baishou.
Part of the troops were reduced. The remaining defenders had to stay in the vast area from Beipiao to Yixian.
The entire Beipiao County and the defenders in various surrounding key points now have only one reinforced infantry brigade. They can only barely defend Beipiao County and are unable to take care of the surrounding key points. The Eighth Division accepted the previous battle with the Anti-Japanese Alliance because
The lesson learned from underestimating the enemy and resulting in failure is that even if the enemy only dispatches one battalion, troops below the level of the brigade must not be dispatched.
To deal with a battalion of the Anti-Resistance Alliance, the general combat budget requires at least one brigade with strengthened artillery and two infantry squadrons. To deal with an enemy regiment, the number of troops dispatched cannot be less than a regiment with at least two additional infantry squadrons.
, otherwise it will be easy to fail to defeat the tiger and suffer the consequences. Although there is only one regiment of the Anti-Japanese League going south to Beipiao, in Shizuo Yokoyama's view, it is already very rare for a strengthened infantry brigade in Beipiao County to hold the county seat.
Although the Kwantung Army has always asked Lieutenant General Washijin Jinhei to ensure the safety of Beipiao and Fuxin. But in Shizuo Yokoyama's view, although Beipiao is very important in the strategic layout of the entire Kwantung Army, this does not mean that he must ensure the safety of Beipiao and Fuxin.
The only reason to defend Beipiao, and the most critical one, is that the military headquarters of Lieutenant General Jiujin Qianping is now in Beipiao City.
Although Lieutenant General Jiujin Zhenhei has urgently mobilized reinforcements from Yi County and Fuxin, only God knows when the reinforcements will arrive and whether they can rush back in time to rescue them on this battlefield. Not to mention the appearance of the enemy troops dispatched now.
It seems that there is only one regiment, but facing an opponent who is both insidious and cunning, who knows, will another force suddenly appear from somewhere?
Jiujin Qianping ignored his own objections and mobilized reinforcements from Chaoyang and Beipiao to reinforce Ye Baishou. Together with Ye Baishou's defenders, they fought with Roubaozi and never returned. Not only did they not succeed in the rescue, they actually weakened Beipiao.
The defense forces in Chaoyang and Chaoyang are not very sufficient.
In the current situation where there is no mobile force, the troops in the Northeast Jianping battlefield are now in a dilemma. The troops transferred back from Sidaoyingzi Mountain were blocked by the enemy at the front line of Daqingshan and could not protect themselves. Facing the
The war situation was rapidly deteriorating, and Lieutenant General Yokoyama Shizuo, who had no troops to control, was almost exhausted.
