War is transforming people's thinking and actions. The army that is used to victory and the army that is used to failure. The generals and soldiers have completely different ideas. The winners always despise the strength of their opponents, and the losers always overestimate the strength of the enemy. It is like this in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad. In the past, a large group of Japanese troops dared to chase the army of an army, and a platoon of the People's Liberation Army dared to attack a regiment of the Kuomintang army. This is the behavior under the guidance of this idea.

It was unimaginable to let Liao Lei take such an ambush a year ago, but a year later he not only did this, but also took the initiative. To put it bluntly, it was actually different ideas brought by victory. In Shou Prefecture, he defeated Fujita Jin and defeated Fujita Jin again in Huainan. The continuous victory gave him the courage to take the initiative to attack. As a result, the unlucky Fujita Jin was defeated by him for the third time.

Li Yannian's Second Army and the Seventh Army, the elite Guangxi Army, whizzed out of the mountains and forests like two female cheetahs that had been hiding for a long time, pounced on Fujitajin's tired body, tearing off pieces of bloody flesh.

In an instant, the silent mountains turned into a battlefield with flesh and blood flying everywhere, with the sound of cannons endlessly, gunfire sounds were weaving, and shouts spread throughout Shuangtou Mountain.

Faced with the rushing out of the Chinese team, Fujita Jin recovered his calmness after the initial panic. He was not afraid of being ambushed. Instead, he thought this was an opportunity to defeat the Chinese team in the southern section of the Jinpu Road.

The Third Division is worthy of being an elite Japanese army. The officers have rich combat experience and quickly stabilized their troops and fought back against the Central Team on both sides of the hills. The Fifth Brigade of the vanguard first withstood the attack of the Second Army. The 29th Brigade, which was guarding the division headquarters, then launched an attack on the hills on both sides. He took down two hills with just one charge, but the Japanese offensive ended here.

The 7th Army entangled the 29th Brigade and fought for two hills with the 170th Division and the 171st Division, and launched a fierce attack on the junction of the 5th Brigade and the 29th Brigade, trying to split the Japanese army.

However, the last baggage unit in the Japanese army was hit hard by the 48th Army and the 92nd Army. The combat effectiveness of the baggage unit was much worse than that of the field troops. Under the fierce offensive of the Zhongzhang Team, the troops struggled to support the light and heavy corps were quickly defeated. The commander of the corps, Okamoto Nakasa, was killed in battle, and the engineering corps Kaniman was seriously injured, and all the heavy artillery was destroyed. Fujita Jin was forced to call back the cavalry unit to reinforce, but the cavalry was greatly reduced in the mountains and fields, and was killed and injured by the firepower of the Zhongzhang Team, with heavy casualties. Fujita Jin was forced to draw a brigade of reinforcements from the 29th Brigade again, and the Japanese army fell into a full passiveness.

The fierce battle lasted for three days, and Fujita Jin could not get rid of the passiveness. The troops were besieged between two peaks within a radius of five miles. The Chinese team firmly grasped the initiative, and the Japanese army persisted in the midst of hunger and cold.

The news of Fujitajin being surrounded reached Nanjing, and Hata Shunruo was shocked and angry. He did not expect that the Central ** team would dare to encircle and annihilate the main Japanese division so close to Nanjing. He could not sit idly by and watch the Third Division be annihilated, nor could he sit idly by and watch the consequences of the Jinpu Road being cut off by the Central ** team. So he did not care about Zhou Yi of the 75th Army and ordered the Third Division to rescue the siege. He was worried that the brigade was insufficient, so he urgently transferred the 11th Division from the front line to go south to completely ensure the transportation safety of the southern section of the Jinpu Road.

"Beautiful job! Liao Yannong did it beautifully! I want to ask him for me!" After receiving the report of Liao Lei surrounding the Third Division and the 11th Division's Southern Transfer, Zhuang Jihua jumped up in surprise and punched the table, shaking the cups on the table.

The situation on the southern line was like a huge rock pressing against his heart. The Japanese army was fierce in offensive, and the troops on the southern line retreated step by step, but he did not dare to easily increase troops to the southern line because the Japanese army's attack on the eastern line also increased.

After Tai'an fell, the 60th army was unable to stand firm in Pingyin. Du Yuming led his troops to retreat to Dongping and established a defensive position on the south bank of the Daqing River.

After crossing the Taishan Mountains, the artillery advantage was fully demonstrated. The Dawen River during the ice period was not as dangerous as expected. The Japanese army's bound hands and feet could finally be launched. Four divisions launched a fierce attack along the Dawen River and the Daqing River. The huge gap in equipment finally gave the Japanese army the advantage. Sun Lianzhong asked Zhuang Jihua for help after struggling for two days.

While the Dawen River defense line was in frequent emergency, although Zhang Zizhong from the middle route received reinforcements from the New 22nd Division, the situation still did not improve. The Japanese offensive was still fierce, and Zhang Zizhong relied on the geographical location to persist.

The Japanese army on the entire southern and eastern fronts were attacking desperately. The purpose of the Japanese army is now very clear, which is to cooperate with the Northern Front to encircle and annihilate the main force of the fifth war zone.

Zhuang Jihua's only reserve team now is Yang Sen's 24th Army, but this army was divided into two parts. Yang Sen led the 20th Army to prepare for war on the front line of Teng County, Zaozhuang. The 47th Army led by Li Jiayu was in Yanzhou, and two of the divisions were still in Jining. He dared not use these two armies easily. This was the last force. Once he was involved and entangled by the Japanese army, he would have no mobile power.

The entire battle situation was a turning point because of Liao Lei's bold attack. After the 11th Division left, the Japanese offensive on the southern front would inevitably slow down, and Zhuang Jihua took a breath.

Seeing that Zhuang Jihua fell silent after being excited, Gong Chu boldly suggested: "Commander, I think we can launch a limited attack on the southern line, first drive the Japanese army across the Seihe River, stabilize the southern line, and attract the 11th Division, so that Liao Lei has more time to encircle and annihilate the Third Division."

Zhuang Jihua frowned slightly when he heard this. Gong Chu showed good tactical skills during this period, but Zhuang Jihua also found that his problem was that his strategy was slightly worse than Xu Zuyi. At least Xu Zuyi would not make such suggestions.

"You are a good combat director, but this time I didn't say it right. South Line? South Line is not the key," Zhuang Jihua shook his head and said: "The key to breaking the Japanese attack is Honma. Only by defeating Masaharu Honma can the entire battle situation be reversed."

Gong Chu was stunned for a moment, then understood, a hint of shame appeared on his face. He understood that he was sick again, just like in the Soviet area, he attached too much importance to immediate interests. The entire battle situation flowed through his head like a movie, admitting that Zhuang Jihua said it well, and Masaharu Honma was the key.

"Director Gong, I want to take a risk." Zhuang Jihua said hesitantly, his eyes flashed, obviously not yet determined. Gong Chu waited quietly. After taking a while, Zhuang Jihua continued: "I want to hand over the two divisions of Jining to Chief Xu."

Gong Chu understood why Zhuang Jihua was hesitant. Jining released the two divisions as two functions. One was to prevent the Japanese army from west to east if Heze was lost; the other function was to reinforce the Eastern Front when the Eastern Front was in critical condition, especially Yanzhou. Leave these two divisions to Xu Zuyi. Once Aosuke Isotani broke through the Dawen River, Yanzhou would become too empty.

"Commander Zhuang, Beizhi believes that the direction of Heze is not insufficient," Gong Chu said hesitantly: "A group of troops has been invested here, and there are two reorganized troops, with a total force of up to 160,000, and the force is three to one."

"Then what do you think is the reason?" Zhuang Jihua asked, and Gong Chu's views made him interested.

"Beizhi believes it is a tactical issue, but there is a specific situation in the battlefield, and I don't know what to evaluate." Gong Chu did not dare to say everything, nor did he dare to offend Xu Zuyi too much. He finally got to this position, and his future finally saw a glimmer of hope. He must not fight in this matter.

Zhuang Jihua smiled lightly and stared at Gong Chu with sharp eyes. Gong Chu's heart trembled, and the secret inside seemed to be seen through.

"Director Gong," Zhuang Jihua withdrew his gaze lightly, returned to his desk and picked up the coffee before saying slowly: "You came from the Communist Party of China,"

A layer of sweat immediately appeared on Gong Chu's forehead. This stain has always been an obstacle to his promotion. Now Zhuang Jihua shook it out again, and he was very nervous.

"Actually, this is nothing. Don't worry about gains and losses. Isn't it just a change of belief? Belief is like saying that he is there, and saying that he is not there, he is not there. Besides, gcd is not as good as their publicity." Zhuang Jihua talked freely, but Gong Chu was a little stunned. It was not the words attacking Gcd, but because of his understanding of faith, which was incredible.

"I trust you and give you the opportunity to give full play to your talents."

Gong Chu understood what Zhuang Jihua meant and gave you a chance. If you can't catch it, you can't blame me. Before he could express his time, Yang Yuchun hurried in.

"Report, Chief Bai urgently called."

Zhuang Jihua's heart suddenly sank, and his whole body was trembling, and a bad feeling suddenly arose: "Think."

"Commander Zhuang of the Five War Zone, our 22nd Army conquered Puyang, annihilated most of the Japanese Mizukawa Regiment, and killed the Japanese Mizukawa Regiment Captain. The Japanese reinforcement 35th Division arrived at the front line yesterday. The 23rd Army was unfavorable to fight, and the Japanese broke through the Gu River defense line. In addition, the vanguard of the Japanese reinforcement 101 Division will arrive in Anyang within two days and order your troops to increase the attack and annihilate Masaharu Honma as soon as possible."

After listening to the telegram, Zhuang Jihua couldn't help but get angry. The 35th Division rushed to the front line yesterday. Such an important situation was sent today. The 21st Army captured Puyang and it was only now. I really don't know what Bai Chongxi was doing.

Zhuang Jihua suppressed his anger: "Call back, obey the order, and prepare to add two new divisions of the 47th Army to the siege and annihilate the home. In addition, the enemy situation in the war zone will be changed in time."

If he had not made up his mind before receiving Bai Chongxi's telegram, he had now decided that no matter what the eastern and southern lines were, Honma, which was heading south to the north, must be annihilated and cleared the roadblocks behind.

Bai Chongxi and Zhuang Jihua both ignored a variable. Zhongdao and Zhuang Jihua believed that there was a brigade in Dingtao, which was enough to defend against the seven or eight thousand people in Zhongdao. Bai Chongxi believed that the 74th Army had been sent to pursue this "small" unit without support and no supplementary support, and their influence on this battle with more than one million people participating would not be too great.

But they were all wrong, and Nakajima didn't act as they thought.

I spent a long time in the hospital today. Alas, it seems that my father must have surgery...
