Just as Liu Yimin deployed a winter offensive and marched into the Northeast, the commander of the Japanese North China Front Army, Okamura Yasuji, the new Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Moribu, and Deputy Chief of Staff Masato Hirata were also directing the launch of a major winter mopping.
At this time, due to the Japanese-Soviet War and the Pacific War, the adjustment range of the Chinese dispatched troops was also relatively large. The Japanese army formed several new divisions and joined the Chinese dispatched troops to replace the troops transferred to the Kwantung Army. The North China Front Army,
Based on a corps left by the 14th Division, it joined the supplementary team and formed the 62nd Division, stationed in the northern Henan area, and replaced the northern Henan defense zone of the 14th Division; it stayed with the 20th Division.
Based on a corps, the 69th Division was formed, stationed in the Linfen area, and replaced the defense of the 20th Division.
The North China Front Army still maintained its strength far beyond Central China, and the Japanese army in South China was in the battle with the Eighth Route Army.
The North China Front Army directly under the 35th, 36th, 58th, 59th, 110th, and the garrisons of Peking, Tianjin, Shimen, Kaifeng and Shangqiu. Among them, the fifteenth division was the fifteenth division.
Stationed in central Hebei, the 110th Division was stationed in Pingjin area, the 36th Division was stationed on the Pinghan Line, the 58th Division was stationed in eastern Henan, and the 59th Division was stationed in southern Hebei and Deshi Road.
The troops under the First Japanese Army stationed in Shanxi were adjusted to the 25th Division, the 109th Division, the 62nd Division, the 69th Division, the ** Mixed Ninth, the 10th Brigade, the Taiyuan Garrison, the Heavy Artillery Brigade, etc.
force.
The troops stationed in Mongolia have not changed much, and they are still troops of the 26th Division, the 2nd Brigade of the ** Mixed Brigade, the First Cavalry Brigade and other units, and the Third Division of the chariots are also assigned to the command of the troops stationed in Mongolia. Among them, the ** Mixed Brigade
The Second Brigade and the First Cavalry Brigade were all troops rebuilt after being annihilated by the Eighth Route Army.
The troops under the 12th Army stationed in Shandong have also changed. The Fifth Division, which was originally used to set up mobile reinforcements in Shandong, was transferred to the Japanese Southern Army. The 40th Division was transferred to the 11th Army stationed in Wuhan.
The 12th Army has a total of seven divisions and a total of seven divisions and ** to become the first, with the 27th, 32th, 37th, 39th, 41st, and 60th.
The two garrisons have extremely large forces, far exceeding the 11th Army in Wuhan.
Among them, the Second Guard Division commanded the ** Mixed Fifth Brigade, the ** Mixed 18th Brigade was stationed in eastern Shandong, and the division headquarters was established in Weicheng. The ** Mixed Fifth Brigade stationed in Gaomi, and ** Mixed
The 18th Brigade is stationed in Jiao? County.
The 32nd Division commanded the 19th Brigade of the Miancheng garrison in Luzhong. The division headquarters was located in Zhangdian, while the 19th Brigade of the Miancheng garrison in Zhangqiu.
The 37th Division commanded the 16th Brigade of the Mixed and North China Pacification Army stationed in Tai'an, Yanzhou and Jining, and the division headquarters were stationed in Yanzhou. The 16th Brigade of the Mixed and Chuang's Mixed and Chuang's Pacification Army stationed in Tai'an.

In this way, the Japanese army still formed an airtight encirclement around central and southern Shandong.
The defense areas of other units of the 12th Army were not much changed. The 60th Division was stationed in Jiaodong, and the 41st Division was stationed in Dexian, commanding the 20th Mixed Encyclopedia. The 21st Brigade guarded the plain area north of the Yellow River and was stationed with the garrison.
The 7th Mixed Brigade in southwest Shandong, the 1st Mixed Brigade stationed in Jinan, the 59th Division stationed in southern Hebei, and the 35th Division stationed in central Hebei echo each other and cooperate with cooperation.
At this time, Okamura Yasuji could use more troops than the North China Front Army could use at this time in history.
Okamura Yasuji is experienced, calm, and does not fight a battle without any confidence. After he took over as commander of the North China Front Army, he took advantage of the victory of the Battle of Nakajoyama to urge the First Army and the Mongolian Army to continue to go to the
The Eighth Route Army Base in Shanxi launched a mobilization, causing smoke to spread everywhere in the Shanxi battlefield. What made Okamura Yanji feel extremely depressed was that his mobilization operation did not work much. The Eighth Route Army not only launched a counter-sweeping operation against the mobilization operation, but also headed towards Nakajoyama.
With regional infiltration, the situation clearly means that it is necessary to establish a base behind enemy lines in the Zhongtiaoshan area abandoned by the Kuomintang troops. If this continues, wouldn’t the Eighth Route Army’s base be larger and larger?
The new chief of staff of the North China Front Army Tiandao Shengwu was originally the commander of the 41st Division of the Japanese Army. Since he arrived in North China, he has been stationed in Cang County and western Shandong. His troops have been attacked by the Eighth Route Army several times, and the soldiers are all fast.
It's been changed a lot.
Seeing Okamura Yasuji sitting upright in front of the map and pondering, Tiandao Moribu said angrily: "Commander, the decision of the base camp is really inexplicable. The Eighth Route Army in North China is so rampant that the base camp does not mobilize the army to concentrate on eliminating the Eighth Route Army and recovering
The security in North China has concentrated its main force on Manchuria and the Far East, which had already ceased to fight, and now the Taiping War has been launched. If this continues, Japan will be attacked from all sides and its situation will become increasingly dangerous, and there will be no force to resolve the incident in China!"
Tiandao Moribu knew that Okamura Yasuji advocated eliminating the Eighth Route Army first, so he dared to criticize the decision of the base camp so much. However, what he said was indeed the truth, and the front-line commander who had experienced after suffering a great loss on the battlefield in North China.
The truth is that Emperor Hirohito is arrogant and is thinking about dividing the world. Where can I hear the truth about these front-line commanders?
Okamura Yanji looked at the map silently, without following the words of Tiandao Shengwu.
Deputy Chief of Staff Masato Hirata turned out to be full of hope that Chief of Staff Yoshisuke would be his turn in the future. As a result, the bamboo basket was useless and his words were even more sharp than the Tiandao Shengwu.
Heida Masato said: "It makes sense for the Chief of Staff to say it. The Great Japanese Empire should first eliminate the Eighth Route Army, especially the security cancer in North China, Liu Yimin's troops, build North China into a paradise of imperial roads, and ensure that North China's resources support the war against China
.It's better now. Liu Yimin attacked and occupied Shanghai, capturing Lieutenant General Shigeru Sawada, commander of the 13th Army, Major General Tang Chuan Atsuo, and destroyed Mei and Eryu. He took over the Japanese capital of Shanghai's Zhengjin Bank, Taiwan Bank and other banks.
The funds and assets of banks and enterprises were all stolen. The base camp did not consider mobilizing the army to completely eliminate Liu Yimin's troops, regaining the plundered assets, avenging Lieutenant General Shigeru Sawada and the soldiers of the Yuzai, but was busy fighting the Americans. It was purely
The big guy doesn’t understand the strategy! I’m working with blind command!”
Tiandao Shengwu added: "If this continues, the Chinese dispatched troops and the Chinese battlefield may become secondary troops and secondary battlefields!"
The statement of Moribu of Tiandao is almost exactly the same as the rumors heard by Anan Weiji, commander of the 11th Army of the Japanese Army, and Chief of Staff Yuki Kinoshita. It can be seen that the senior commanders of the Chinese Expeditionary Force all have this kind of concern, and what they heard is not what they heard.
Rumors, but their inner thoughts.
Chief of Staff and Deputy Chief of Staff would continue to be a strategic decision to attack the base camp. Okamura Yanji finally moved his eyes away from the map. He turned around and sat down at his desk, and asked Hirata Masato in a gentle tone: "
Hirata Jun, hasn’t the intelligence work on the Eighth Route Army Base in Central and Southern Shandong yet to make progress?"
Masato Hirata is the deputy chief of staff, and these tasks are within his responsibilities. Seeing Okamura Yasuji ask, Masato Hirata hurriedly stood at attention and said, "Hayi, the Eighth Route Army of Shandong."
Liu Yimin's troops are different from Chiang Kai-shek's Central Army and Yan Xishan's Jinsui Army. They are also different from other Eighth Route Army units. They are particularly strict in prevention and can deceive the people and pay special attention to attacking our intelligence agencies. Our intelligence personnel and plainclothes search troops entered.
There are no return in central and southern Shandong, and there will be no trace again. Unfortunately, so far, we still know nothing about the Eighth Route Army in central and southern Shandong."
Okamura Yasuji did not slap Hirata Masato in the face when Tsuichi Desunouchi and Takada Jung was the commander, scolding Hirata Masato Haga, and just nodded to indicate that he knew.
This is where Okamura Yasuji has affinity. The generals of the North China Front Army are generally believed that General Gangmura is more approachable than General Tsai and Jun Tada and listen to the opinions of his subordinates. Yes
A commander who takes advantage of his calmness and courage.
Because of Okamura Yasuji's personal charm, he was more comfortable in commanding the North China Front Army, like an arm command.
Okamura Yasuji thought for a while and said to Tiandao Moribu: "Chief of Staff, I have repeatedly considered it. The main reason for the deterioration of the security situation in North China is not how clever ** is, but that our countermeasures are not working. Political mistakes
It is mainly reflected in the fact that the use of China is not implemented. When Lord Shanshanyuan and Lord Tada Jun served as commander of the front army, they had already deployed activities to induce surrender to Yan Xishan's troops and other Kuomintang troops, but the effect has not been obvious so far.
The goal of letting the Chinese fight against the Chinese is to disperse the troops. One is to disperse the troops. In some areas, there are only two imperial soldiers per three square kilometers on average, which is easy to be defeated by the guerrilla armed brothers of the Eighth Route Army; the other is that they lack precise and regular
Correcting the target often becomes a static defense. If the imperial army does not take the initiative to attack, the ** side will not invade. At first glance, they are peaceful, as if they have concluded a non-aggression treaty. However, during the coexistence of both sides, **
But it works secretly among the people and enriches its strength. Once the time is ripe, it can turn to attack in one fell swoop. In central and southern Shandong, the battle of 100 regiments in Shanxi is an example. The economic mistake is that the imperial army has been implementing the plundering policy, in urban industry and commerce
There are many tycoons and miscellaneous taxes, and forced opium to be planted in the countryside, neglecting the production of important strategic materials such as grain and cotton. These mistakes led to successive failures in the battle with the Eighth Route Army, losing people's hearts, and causing more and more people in North China to join the releasing.
Anti-ranking ranks.”
Masato Hirata started talking since Okamura Yasuji, and took out a notebook to record. This guy is a bit weird, and the recording speed is very fast, and he nodded while changing to the recording, thinking it was true.
Okamura Yasuji continued: "I calculated that the Imperial Army now accounts for less than 10% of the total area of North China. This means that the Imperial Army drove away the Kuomintang forces originally in North China, and gave them to the Eighth Route Army.
Created a good opportunity for development and growth. Without the Imperial Army's occupation of North China, the Kuomintang might have fought a civil war in North China, and they might not have been able to occupy such a large area of bases today. From this perspective, since the war in North China began,
The Imperial Army's strategy was a failure. Not only did it fail to eliminate the ** and curb the spread of the ** red tide, but it instead promoted the ** great development in North China."
Tiandao Moribu felt that Okamura Yanji's analysis was too correct, so he kept nodding and saying yes.
Okamura Yasuji still said slowly: "In view of the current situation of deteriorating public security in North China, I divided North China into three areas: public security areas, quasi-security areas, and unsecurity areas. It is planned to take three years to turn the area occupied by the Imperial Army from
10% increased to 70%. To this end, the front army should take planned measures to take the initiative to attack, divide the areas, limit the time to consolidate the security areas, conceal the troops in the security areas, enter the security areas in a planned manner, and use the remaining troops to go to the public.
Advance the security areas and develop into quasi-security areas. The ultimate goal is to bring 100 million people in North China to Japan. Follow these steps. It is neither rush to achieve success nor miss the opportunity. It is necessary to fight targetedly.
Francis. When fighting a war, one must eliminate part of the Eighth Route Army and consolidate a region.”
Speaking of this, Okamura Yasuji gave an example, saying that the Eighth Route Army was like a maggot with bones, and the medicine grew rapidly as soon as it passed. Just like when the Japanese heavy army swept Shandong, the Eighth Route Army fled.
Without a trace. As soon as the large army evacuated, the Eighth Route Army came out of nowhere and attacked the Japanese army wantonly, turning the results of the Japanese heavy army group into vanishing. Therefore, the suppression of the Eighth Route Army must not be relaxed.
Okamura Yasuji also said that the standard for judging whether it is a security zone is very simple. From the eyes of the Chinese girl, you can see the quality of the local security situation. First, you will never see the girl. This is a proof of fear of Japanese soldiers.
, for "bad public security". Second, for our cars and trucks, I looked out from a distance from the window, for "bad public security". Third, under the above circumstances, when I walked out of the doorstep, I looked out of the Chinese girl's expression
Walking calmly on the streets where Japanese soldiers come and go, saying that "the public security is good.
Okamura Yasuji was talking about his understanding and his general idea. Before he could start talking about his specific combat deployment, Tiandao Moribu and Hirata Masato had already cheered!
