Even worried that the Chinese Dispatch Army would make a private decision to withdraw, the base camp assigned the 23rd Army, which was organized by the China Dispatch Army, to the Southern Army, which currently moved its headquarters to Saigon, Vietnam. As a directly affiliated corps of the Southern Army, it was placed under the Southern Army
Command operations. However, in order to compensate for the Chinese Expeditionary Force, the base camp placed the Taiwan Army, which was originally directly under the Central Government, under the Chinese Expeditionary Force.
It's just that under the current situation that the Taiwan Strait has become a strait of death, even if the entire Chinese dispatched army is wiped out, the powerful Taiwan Army will not be able to send a single soldier into mainland China to support the operation. The Japanese army base camp will be used to dispatch troops to China.
Although this pie is big, for the China Expeditionary Force, it is nothing more than a moon in the water.
After going around in circles for a long time, the Chinese dispatched troops actually did not add a single soldier. They even had more than 80,000 troops of the 23rd Army taken away, and only got the 10th Front Army, which looked like a flower in the mirror. Although at this time, the Chinese dispatched troops
On paper, the army still has hundreds of thousands of troops, but from Central China to East China, the number of troops that can be deployed on the front line is quite limited.
However, opponents would not understand the difficulties faced by China in dispatching troops. Faced with a favorable situation, Mr. Lin continued to increase the intensity of the offensive. By May 7, the Eastern Front Cluster had completed the division of Japanese troops between the Jianghuai River and the Huaihe River.
The Western Front Group under the command of Chen Hanzhang, under the full cover of the aviation force, also successively captured the Yangzhou, Taizhou, and Rugao front lines. It joined forces with the Central Jiangsu Military Region troops and the New Fourth Army headquarters to complete the encirclement of the entire Jianghuai area with more than 200,000 Japanese troops.
And just as Mr. Lin completed the entire Jianghuai battlefield, more than 200,000 Japanese troops were divided and encircled. At the same time, the Fourth and Fifth Divisions of the New Fourth Army who were cooperating with Chen Hanzhang's actions on the western front, as well as the Second Division of the New Fourth Army and the Huainan Military Region troops who were originally operating in eastern Anhui,
.Under the unified command of the commander of the Fifth Division, a large-scale offensive was also launched on the western front.
The Fifth Division of the New Fourth Army, in cooperation with the First Division of the Second Division, strengthened the mountain artillery regiment directly under the Shanxi-Hebei-Luyu Military Region, a howitzer battalion, a cannon regiment from the Anti-Japanese Alliance and an independent tank regiment, forming a battle group that quickly moved south from Chuzhou.
With the full cooperation of the revolting Wang puppet regime's guard division, a Japanese regiment was defeated and Pukou was captured.
Pukou was lost so quickly, and the long-range artillery fire from Jiangbei had already fallen on the Japanese positions in Yanziji, Caoxie Gorge, and Shogunate Mountain. The Chinese Expeditionary Forces Headquarters was stunned and could only deploy troops that were not enough to strengthen the defense of Nanjing City.
At the same time, the strength of the Jiangyin Fortress Group was strengthened.
The constant explosion of artillery shells and aerial bombs outside Nanjing City has put the gangsters in Nanjing City who have no way to go to the sky and no way to the ground, and are in a state of panic all day long. None of them expected that twenty gangsters would be gathered in the Jianghuai area.
The Japanese with more than 10,000 troops would collapse so quickly.
In less than a month, more than 100,000 Japanese troops between the Jianghuai River and the Huaihe River were surrounded, and the Communist army was allowed to attack the outside of Nanjing in one breath. Unexpectedly, the Japanese, who were gaining momentum at the beginning, would collapse in just a few years.
These gangsters are like headless flies looking for a way out.
Some gave up their posts and fled to Shanghai, while others were begging for mercy from Chongqing. Some used a large amount of wealth they had plundered to communicate with the intelligence department of the Japanese and Chinese Expeditionary Forces, and some wanted to escape to Nanyang. Some were even under great pressure.
, shoot or commit suicide by swallowing opium.
On May 10th, when the acting chairman of the National Government in Nanjing was about to hold a meeting to study the next step and the so-called plan to move the capital to Shanghai, he was shocked to find that there were only three or two kittens in attendance. It turned out that the big cats were fighting for power all day long.
Most of the members are missing. This is what it means when a tree falls and the hozens scatter.
During this entire battle, Mr. Lin's entire deployment and operation were as smooth as flowing water. The Anti-Japanese Alliance combat troops, who have been trained in actual combat, are becoming more and more mature and sophisticated in the use of large-scale armored assault tactics. Chen Hanzhang's armored group combat command attainments,
It is also getting deeper and deeper.
The armored forces participating in the war on the east and west fronts overcame numerous unfavorable obstacles in the water network and ensured the high efficiency and speed of the breakthrough. The anti-alliance forces, which are responsible for the main combat tasks, have the ability to coordinate operations and rapid assaults of various arms, allowing them to closely monitor the situation.
All parties concerned were stunned.
However, there were also some disharmonious factors in this battle. During the Battle of Jianghuai, the Anti-Japanese Air Force that entered the border to participate in the war had many conflicts with the US Air Force in China and the Chongqing Air Force. Before the war, there were many aviation units.
The U.S. military and certain reconnaissance aircraft were driven down, shot down, and conducted deep reconnaissance in North China.
During the battle, some aircraft did not cause any interference on the ground, but in the air, under the banner of supporting operations, they dispatched aircraft groups many times to greatly interfere with the actions of the Anti-Japanese Alliance aviation forces participating in the war. There were even attacks on the anti-Union aviation forces.
to attack a group of aircraft and shoot down anti-Alliance bombers.
As for the US military and certain groups of bombers and fighter jets, attacks on the ground forces of the Anti-Japanese Alliance have happened from time to time. Although the other side repeatedly claimed afterwards that it was a friendly attack, this knowing and intentional approach makes people feel angry. This is not a misunderstanding, but
It was done deliberately by the relevant parties, otherwise this situation would not happen again and again.
The frequent small moves made by the Americans and certain parties eventually triggered a large-scale air battle on May 9th within the Chinese themselves, as well as between the Chinese and the Americans who were still allies. It was intolerable.
After discovering the U.S. military and Chongqing aircraft groups that were interfering again, the Anti-Alliance Air Force scrambled two squadrons to intercept them.
Immediately, under the stunned gaze of the Japanese troops on the ground, an air battle broke out in the air. In this air battle, the Anti-Japanese Alliance aviation force shot down twenty-seven fighter jets. The U.S. military and the Chongqing plane fleet that ultimately triggered the great air battle,
More than forty P-51 and P-47 fighter jets were all shot down.
Although everyone remained silent about the air battle afterwards, the central government also immediately handed over all the rescued more than 30 American troops and pilots from certain parties to certain parties. However, this air conflict undoubtedly marked the beginning of this air battle.
The battle cast a very bad shadow.
But despite the price paid, the results were immediate. From the end of this air battle until the end of the entire campaign, some aircraft were really hurt. Before they appeared over the battlefield, the American aviation forces in China also focused their attention.
All turned to the battlefield south of the Yangtze River.
Compared with the traitors in Nanjing who were in panic all day long, and in some aspects the Air Force, which had been painstakingly rebuilt, suffered heavy losses this time and was heartbroken. At this time, Yang Zhen, who had already led the Northeast Bureau and the Northeast Military Region Headquarters to move to Shenyang, looked at
My old subordinates were galloping around the Jianghuai area and fought extremely well. While they were pleased, they also felt a little disappointed.
Think about how much painstaking efforts you have made since breaking out of the Japanese germ warfare base to create a military force that is unrivaled in terms of equipment, combat effectiveness, and military literacy, even if you look at the entire Asia.
A majestic army that has fought hundreds of battles. He led this army out of the deep mountains and old forests and fought one battle after another. Today, he has recovered all of Northeast China and swept across North China.
Whether it was the Northeastern battlefield or the North China battlefield, there was almost no one left to fight. But in this battle, he could only sit on the sidelines and watch. This made Yang Zhen feel somewhat comfortable while being happy about the performance of his troops.
.This is like having gone through a lot of hard work to finally raise a son and get married, but in the end, he married his mother-in-law, and he has nothing to do with himself.
However, it was uncomfortable, and Yang Zhen also knew that this step was what he had to take. He clearly remembered that he proposed to transfer the main force of the Anti-Japanese Alliance to the pass and put it under the command of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region. He declined the chairman's request to transfer himself to command this step.
After this battle, some central leaders looked very relaxed.
At this point in the war, it was a matter of course for the main force of the Anti-Japanese Alliance to enter the customs. No one would have been able to put millions of well-equipped and powerful troops into the customs. The Japanese army still controlled a large area in the customs.
Next, I just stayed in the Northeast and rested for a long time with nothing to do.
After the Battle of South Manchuria, it was an inevitable choice for the main force of the Anti-Japanese Alliance to enter the country. He finally chose to stay in the Northeast. Although it was his own choice, it was also in line with the overall strategic arrangement of the central government. Yang Zhen did not think that he would always carry the Anti-Japanese Alliance with him.
, will be in line with the true intention of the central government. Thinking of this, Yang Zhen touched his nose and smiled to himself inwardly. If you are poor, you can benefit yourself, and if you are rich, you can help the world.
Looking at her husband who was a little disappointed, Yuan Zhiruo, who was several months pregnant at the moment, could only smile and reassure her husband about the sense of loss beneath his calm appearance. Although he did not fully understand the reason why his husband made that decision, he could still understand it.
Yuan Zhiruo, who knew something about it, tried her best to give Yang Zhen some comfort.
For Yang Zhen, his wife's comfort cannot completely replace the feeling of loss in his heart. But for the several secret plans that have entered the final preparation stage, Yang Zhen, who has no energy to take into account too many other aspects, feels the feeling of loss in his heart.
It can only be suppressed in the bottom of my heart.
Although the Soviet Union repeatedly requested the Anti-Japanese Alliance to extend the period of service of its personnel in the Soviet Navy. However, the Germans surrendered on May 8, the European battlefield was completely over, and the Soviet Army was about to begin a large-scale decommissioning of its troops. Due to excessive deployment, the Soviet Union
The resulting manpower shortage will be completely reversed by the first half of 2016 at the latest.
The Soviet Navy suffered huge casualties throughout the Soviet-German war, but the casualties in naval battles were not large. However, the casualties of those Soviet naval units organized into ground forces to participate in the war were quite astonishing. They were trained before the war.
The navy soldiers were almost reduced to casualties and embers.
In the words of Li Mingfeng, who has been studying the navy in the Soviet Union, the quality of the Soviet tank troops on the battlefield has indeed improved quite quickly. However, due to the huge casualties, the quality of the infantry is generally not high except for a few Guards infantry. The Soviet army has indeed improved very quickly.
Every attack is a huge waste of life, all of which are heaped up with human lives.
In terms of offensive tactics, the Soviet generals generally fought hard, resulting in extremely huge casualties in every attack. In addition to investing a large number of tanks and overwhelming artillery fire, there was an endless line of infantry skirmishers.
One line of troops has been defeated, and another line is following.
One division was wiped out, and another division was filling in. The German positions were often not defeated, but were overwhelmed by the Soviet army with casualty figures. It was not easy to deal with the Soviet tank group, but it was not easy to deal with the Soviet tank group.
Infantry tactics are not difficult as long as you master their rules.
According to Li Mingfeng's analysis and evaluation, with the firepower and tactics of a simple infantry division of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, the Soviet army's offensive method, as long as there are no major mistakes in the defensive battle, can defeat a Soviet army without tank cover.
Infantry army attacks.
When Li Mingfeng reported to Yang Zhen, he told Yang Zhen that in the late war, in order to make up for the huge casualties, the Soviet army not only recruited a large number of troops in the liberated areas, but also directly added the newly rescued prisoners of war to the army without screening.
In order to ensure the supply of troops on the front line, these new recruits were sent to the battlefield after only cursory training.
