In that time and space, the most successful reason why Xue Yue became the God of Anti-Japanese War was the use of the "Heavenly Furnace Warfare", and the results achieved by this "Heavenly Furnace Warfare" are terrifying even today. , more than 80,000 Japanese soldiers died under Xue Yue's move. It can be said that in the middle of the Anti-Japanese War, it was precisely because of Xue Yue's existence that the Chinese war situation fell into a stalemate, thus completely bankrupting the Japanese army's strategy of quick victory. ,
The "Anti-Japanese Army God" is not just called casually, and the "Tianlu War Method" was definitely not obtained out of thin air. It was the result of Xue Yue's careful consideration and a conclusion he came up with after carefully studying the Japanese army's combat methods. This targeted strategy, the result of the perfect implementation of this strategy, was based on the Japanese army's eagerness to make meritorious deeds and complete the siege of Chongqing as soon as possible. It was precisely this mentality of the Japanese army that Xue Yue captured the Japanese army step by step. Lure into depth, thereby giving full play to the advantage of the national army's strength, and forming small encirclements on points, lines and surfaces, thereby dividing, encircling and even encircling and annihilating the Japanese trapped in the "Heavenly Furnace".
On the battlefields in northeastern Jiangxi and southwestern Zhejiang, so far, except for the performance of the Fourth Xue Army, which suffered a few defeats from the 9th Division, the Xue Bing Army has firmly held the advantage in several other battlefields. Among them, the most proud thing is that Li Hanhun's Second Learned Army and Zhang Da's Third Learned Army worked closely together to surround and completely annihilate the 8th Mixed Independent Brigade, and captured alive its brigade commander, Major General Mizuhara Yishige. , the Xuebing Army has already done this before, and the first unlucky one was Doihara Kenji, who captured Japanese general-level officers alive.
The news that Mizuhara Yishige was captured alive is not yet widely known due to the Xuebing Army's deliberate low-key and the Japanese army's blockade of the media. What Xue Yue knows is that the Xuebing Army severely defeated a Japanese army. Therefore, for the Xuebing Army In the fierce battle with the Japanese army, he suggested that the Japanese army should be attacked in depth, and then rely on the defenders' understanding of the terrain to surround and annihilate them. Xue Yue thought so and naturally placed the Xuebing Army on the weak side. Little did he know that this battle was initiated by the Xuebing Army, and it was done with multiple plans.
Talking about happiness, Xue Yue asked his adjutant to bring the map under the influence of wine: "Brother Ouyang, let's study the map carefully. I think you can achieve greater results in this battle."
The wine was good, and the two people who originally called each other "commander" seemed a little awkward. They immediately called each other brother and became close to each other, as if the incident a few months ago never happened.
The adjutant took the map and spread it on the wine table. Everyone else left wisely. Only some senior generals from both sides or their confidants were left. Xue Yue picked up a chopstick and drew from Shangrao to Yingtan. Said: "Take the Upper Eagle Line as an example. If we lure the Japanese army in, we can take advantage of the mountains in northern Fujian and the water area in Panyang Lake to spread out the troops and push them into the mountainous and water network areas. , Lure the Japanese to divide their forces and turn plain warfare into mountain warfare and water network warfare. As long as they enter these two areas, the Japanese army's mobility advantage will no longer exist. Moreover, these two areas are helpful for setting up ambushes. Our ninth The guerrilla columns in the war zone are active in the Panyang Lake area. As long as they enter here, the Japanese will become blind and deaf. At that time, we had the final say when and how to fight. The mountainous areas in northern Fujian have always been It is famously easy to defend and difficult to attack. Taking advantage of the mountains here, we can launch a large-scale battle according to the situation. If we win, we will fight hard, and if we cannot win, we will run away..."
After Xue Yue finished speaking, one of his confidants immediately praised him: "Commander, this is indeed a combat plan that can maximize the advantages of our army. Once the Japanese dare to enter our preset battlefield, then welcome them Their response will definitely be a head-on attack."
Several people from the Xuebing Army smiled bitterly after hearing this. If it was the Ninth War Zone or other national army units, Xue Yue's arrangement was indeed a good way to leverage one's own strengths and curb the Japanese army's strengths. However, compared with being more mobile, , but it is not suitable for the Xuebing Army, which relies more on good terrain to exert its combat power. The Xuebing Army's army building philosophy is completely inconsistent with the current domestic army building trend. Other domestic armies rely on large numbers of people. However, the Xuebing Army relied on its more flexible mobility and stronger tanks and artillery units than the Japanese army.
The reason why Li Hanhun was able to completely annihilate the 8th Mixed Independent Brigade in Yingtan was because of the Jiguang tank's ability to attack tough targets.
"It seems that Xue Yue still doesn't understand the true situation of our Xuebing Army at all. It's strange why he was so eager to bring back the sixty division and three other former Fujian divisions. No, maybe it was just the highest authority. I mean, it seems that Xue Yue hasn't realized this yet." Ouyang Yun thought like this, not refuting Xue Yue's point of view directly, and said: "When we enter northeastern Jiangxi, we are already fighting across the border, and then we go to the control of your army. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to march in depth."
The implicit meaning of his words was actually to put forward the control of Northeastern Jiangxi in disguise. Xue Yue didn't know whether he didn't understand this meaning, or he had completely given up on Northeastern Jiangxi. He waved his hand, which was very loud. Du Du said: "Brother Ouyang, I don't like to hear what you are saying. What is cross-border warfare? Isn't the Xuebing Army the Chinese army? Everything is to expel the Japanese invaders. You can march into Northeastern Jiangxi. It's too late for me to be happy." Well, if your army can really gain a foothold in northeastern Jiangxi, to be honest, the combat area of our ninth theater will be quite narrow, which is a very good thing for us." At this point, he thought of something and asked: "When your army entered northeastern Jiangxi, it was not just to eliminate the Japanese invaders. If my guess is correct, do you want to draw the war outside and choose a place outside the control area to consume the Japanese army? Brother Ouyang, to be honest Well, what you did was not very kind."
After all, Northeastern Jiangxi is under the jurisdiction of the Ninth War Zone. The reason why Xue Yue took the initiative to abandon Shangrao and Yingtan, whether intentionally or unintentionally, was to ensure that the two places were out of the war. However, this battle launched by the Xuebing Army basically made these two places Although Xue Yue didn't mean to criticize him when he said this, his tone showed that he was unhappy. Perhaps, he thought that Ouyang Yun should at least say hello to him before launching this war.
Ouyang Yun could only smile bitterly when he heard this. He thought about it and felt that the Taiwan combat operation would start in these two days. There was no need to keep this matter secret, so he said: "Brother Xue, you really wronged me. I This is actually a helpless move. The reason why we want to take the initiative to attack this time is actually to cover up the combat operation of landing in Taiwan. Brother Xue, I really treat you as my elder brother. This matter is originally top secret, but for the sake of I couldn’t care less about clearing the suspicion of extending the war. In order to attract the attention of the Japanese army and make them relax in the direction of Taiwan, we must launch an unusually large-scale campaign. As for why we chose Northeastern Jiangxi, there are There are two reasons. One is that compared to southwestern Zhejiang, the Japanese troops here are relatively small and their combat power is not good. The other reason is that once Yingtan is controlled by the Japanese army, it will pose a great threat to Fujian. We do this. It can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone. Please rest assured that since we have taken back Northeastern Jiangxi, we will hand over the jurisdiction to you. Brother Xue, speaking of it, you and I are actually grasshoppers tied to a rope. If your army loses control of the territory, our Xuebing Army will be surrounded by the Japanese on three sides. Once we lose Fujian and Guangdong, your army will also be surrounded by the Japanese on three sides. So the two of us hugged each other, two Only by moving fists in one place can we ensure the safety of both parties. Brother Xue, as you said, we are all anti-Japanese troops and we are determined to fight the Japanese. Therefore, whether it is in northeastern Jiangxi or..."
Before he finished speaking, Xue Yue was already stunned by the confidential information he revealed. Xue Yue interrupted him and asked, "You just said you were sending troops to Taiwan."
"Yes."
Xue Yue looked at him, blinking his eyes with an incredible expression. If Ouyang Yun was not in front of him, he would definitely exclaim: "This kid is simply crazy. Taiwan exists relative to Japan. Xuebingjun How dare you send troops to Taiwan with such a small amount of strength?" He thought about it and had to admit that if the Xuebing Army wanted to firmly defend Fujian and Guangdong, then sending troops to Taiwan would be a clever move. The Japanese army in Taiwan He didn't know the defense situation, nor did he know the size of the troops dispatched by the Xuebing Army. However, think about it, as long as there is even one Xuebing Army on the island of Taiwan, the Japanese will not be able to relax. How can you allow others to snore and sleep? That's what he meant. When he looked at Ouyang Yun again, his eyes changed.
Although this boy is young, he has a very strategic vision. Thinking about the previous victories of Xuebingjun, he mentally believes it more.
From this point of view alone, if we lose it anywhere, it will definitely cause harm to your army.
The most suitable plan for our army to fight." It is not the first time that we have captured a Japanese general alive again. However, due to the Japanese blockade of information, the Xuebing Army's media communications have been blocked by some domestic forces. Therefore, this news is not widely known yet,
He said: "This is a good step. Even if the Taiwan war fails, it can buy time for you to operate your current jurisdiction. Well, you are right. The dependence between our two places is indeed very high. It can be said that the left hand and the The difference between the right hand, Brother Ouyang, I don’t tell secrets, why are you here this time?"
After Xue Yue said this, he glanced at the surrounding subordinates. Upon seeing this, everyone except Zhao Zili immediately retreated. As for the Xuebing Army, Ouyang Yun didn't even say hello, and Chen Shichang led everyone away. left,
Ouyang Yun's trip to Changsha is now getting to the point.
