After making up his mind, Yang Zhen did not directly express what he thought, but quickly completed the homework on the picture according to his own ideas. ": "Piaotian Literature Network" For him, once the knot is opened, the idea will still come very quickly.

Yang Zhen always believed that his large-scale regiment lacked a lot of combat capabilities. After these victories, at least five of them were lucky. So he kept trying his best to learn and find opportunities to enrich himself. This time he defeated Jiamusi, and he collected all the textbooks from the Japanese Army University stored in the Fourth Division.

However, although Yang Zhen thinks of himself so, many people's feelings are obviously not the same as him. After reading Yang Zhen's homework on the picture, Ma Chunsheng, who was almost like a textbook, couldn't help but shout aloud. Ma Chunsheng, who has always been conceited with the homework on the picture, couldn't help but admire him when he saw Yang Zhen's little hand inadvertently.

It was also through Yang Zhen’s standard textbook-like homework that he knew that the previous success of this young and somewhat overly young person in front of him was definitely not accidental, nor was it so-called luck.

After Yang Zhen finished the homework on the picture, he looked at the people standing in front of him with different expressions, but shook his head and smiled bitterly. Among the people in front of him, although his education level was not the lowest, he only learned some culture after joining the army. Various command courses were only exposed to them after the establishment of the army. Liu Changshun, who was memorizing all his hard work, looked a little embarrassed.

Liu Changshun's performance was not beyond Yang Zhen's expectations, which was in line with his background. At this time, whether it was the New Fourth Army or the 18th Army, although the intellectuals joined the army due to the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, a large number of intellectuals were attracted to join the army. However, these intellectuals' troops were still protected like treasures, and the possibility of going to the grassroots level was extremely small.

At this time, most of the grassroots officers were from peasants and almost all of them were workers and peasants. Even if these two troops attached importance to education, in the war environment, most of the education was still for middle and senior officers. At most, grassroots officers could only learn some basic cultural knowledge in the army's literacy classes. Not to mention the platoon leaders who fought and killed and charged on the front line, how many grassroots political workers could read?

After all, it is difficult to provide long-term and effective education without a good learning environment during the whole day of marching and fighting. The reason why many of them later became the ranks of senior officers was more because they rely on years of combat experience and even their natural sense of war.

For Liu Changshun, who didn't know a single word before joining the 18th Army, even after joining the army, he only learned a few words in the army's literacy class. He was still very clever and clever, even if he learned how to read the map, he learned it after following Yang Zhen.

The complicated homework on the map made by Yang Zhen showed such a complicated expression, which means that he did not understand everything. If he could understand it, he would do it, but it would be a bit difficult for him to do such a complex one. Not to mention anything else, the complex marching route on the map almost made him dizzy.

After all, a qualified basic officer cannot be trained in a few months. Although the semesters of the first few batches of students in the Whampoa Military Academy were only a few months, they were based on a relatively good culture. In Yang Zhen's army, it was difficult to find a few literate people at first, and the foundation was there.

You can't let someone who has just learned to read directly to college courses. People can go directly to teaching, while Yang Zhen has to teach these officers under his command to read first. What's more, there is not much time to do tactical training and basic command of these basic officers.

Liu Changshun looked embarrassed, and his chief of staff, who was promoted from the position of deputy battalion commander after one month of training in the staff teaching team, was even more confused and seemed to be ignorant. Only Ma Chunsheng had a solemn expression on his face, and he seemed to be unable to believe Yang Zhen's deployment.

Ma Chunsheng, who had been silent for a long time and carefully looked at the map for a long time, said first: "Sir, according to the work shown in your map, your tactical intention is to be prepared to bypass the Japanese army's retreat and go straight to the southeast of the Japanese army's front line from Wang Shazitun to the southeast of Qunceshan. This plan is very bold, but have you ever thought that once our roundabout tactical attempts are exposed, our flanks will be directly exposed to the eyelids of the Japanese cavalry 3rd Brigade?"

"Your tactical vision is good. After we blow up the Songhua River Bridge, the Japanese army will definitely think that we have avoided the mountainous areas in the southeast of Heli. In order to ensure the safety of the Japanese army's flanks on the front line of Qunce Mountain, if I were Shigeru Sawada, I would definitely transfer the Third Cavalry Brigade to the northeast of Qunce Mountain to launch it."

"You chose to intersperse between Jiamusi and Qunce Mountain. It is a good idea to achieve a tactical surprise. However, on the roundabout route, I suggest you should consider it carefully. After all, this route has to pass through a plain area. I suggest that this attack point be appropriate here."

After saying that, Ma Chunsheng looked at the time on his watch, picked up his pen and remarked a route on the map: "Sir, it is already two o'clock in the morning. Even if we set out now, we will not be able to reach the area you designated before dawn. And according to the speed of the march, we may be exposed to the junction of the shallow mountain plains south of the Alingda River at dawn."

"Our army now has almost no air defense capabilities. Once exposed to plains and under the terrain of shallow mountains for a long time, it is a trivial matter to startle the snake. If it is bitten by a Japanese plane, the loss will be great. Moreover, the terrain of this route is simple and close to Jiamusi. Once the main force of the Japanese Fourth Division who returned to Jiamusi arrived in a short time, and with the third cavalry brigade attacking the flanks of our army's detour troops, our army may be at risk of collapse on the entire line. You must know that the Japanese army is good at flanking detour tactics."

"So my opinion is to detour from the northwest of Qunceshan in the current location. This area is densely vegetated, which can provide our army with a good natural barrier. In addition, this route is also relatively short."

"The most fundamental thing is that this detour route is close to the defense line we envisioned after the Japanese Third Cavalry Brigade was re-adjusted. The detour route you chose was to launch an attack where the Japanese army was most relaxed in defense. But sir, isn't this a bit wishful thinking?"

"The place where the defense is most relaxed on the outside is not necessarily consistent with the inside. Qunce Mountain is backed by Qinghei Mountain and is located in the junction of Jiamusi Plain. With Qinghei Mountain as a cover, the Japanese army may not necessarily reduce the protection power of its southern line. In many cases, the places that seem most dangerous may be the safest. The safest places are very dangerous."

"If the main force of the Fourth Division is still there, the 44th Regiment of the 11th Division naturally doesn't have to worry about the safety of its southern line. The 4th Division and the 4th Division may be worse off in the attack. However, in defensive wars, they are definitely not inferior to the most elite division of the Japanese army. I think this is fully reflected in the battle in Jiamusi."

"I heard Wang Xiaoming talk about the battles you commanded before, and roughly analyzed them. In addition to your bravery in taking dangerous moves, your biggest feature of commanding battles is that you have a very broad vision. Through large-scale detours and interspers, you can fully mobilize the enemy, disperse the enemy's vitality, find the weakest and most fatal point, and strike hard. I can see this point, with the tactical qualities of the Japanese army, you will never turn a blind eye."

"Once the Fourth Division retreats to Jiamusi, it means that the Japanese army on the Qunce Mountain line has been greatly weakened. In this way, its commander will not ignore the safety of his flanks. On the northern line, there is a 4th Cavalry Brigade to warn and cover it, and the southern line deserves his attention. Therefore, although your detour line can serve as a surprise, I still recommend that you not take it as much as possible."

"There are many times, especially after implementing many large-scale roundabout tactics, fighting a battle in a regular manner is also a surprise tactic. Often, among ordinary things, accidents are most likely to occur. And the commander, you have to consider the physical strength of your subordinates."

"It's two o'clock in the morning, and there are more than two hours left before dawn. Although it is not the time when we need to act immediately, at least we should give the troops a short rest."

"The sir conducted a large-scale roundabout battle in the previous stage. Yesterday, he fought in Jiamusi City for another day. Your troops are now in extreme fatigue. In order to restore the best combat state of the troops, I think the troops must be allowed to rest here for a while. Even if they are allowed to sleep until dawn, the troops will be exhausted even if they are tired."

"When you contacted Qunce Mountain for the last time, you only knew that the Japanese army on Qunce Mountain had been mobilized. But how to adjust it specifically? Is it as we imagined that Shigeru Sawada sent the entire 4th Division back to Jiamusi, and all this still needs to be reconnaissed. All the next actions require determination of the Japanese army, especially the specific movements of the main force of the Fourth Division, before you can make up this determination."

While listening to Ma Chunsheng's explanation, Yang Zhen was also observing the map carefully. After a long time, Yang Zhen nodded and made up his mind and said, "Your plan is indeed much simpler and more practical than the one I thought. Just follow your idea, you should come up with a combat plan for me as soon as possible."

After saying that, Yang Zhen turned his head to Liu Changshun's Chief of Staff and said, "I know it's not time to contact the Chief of Staff, but your radio station must always be turned on. Go to the radio station in person, and once there is any notification from the Chief of Staff, you must report it to me immediately."

After explaining to Liu Changshun's chief of staff, Yang Zhen turned his head to Liu Changshun and said, "You go and check the troops, keep the guard farther and arrange more secret sentries. Let the soldiers rest for a while. Before dawn, all the rest of the personnel, except for the necessary guards and confidential personnel, rest on the spot."

Liu Changshun nodded and turned to arrange the situation. After seeing Liu Changshun off, Yang Zhen turned his back to Ma Chunsheng and said to himself, as if he was talking to him: "You just saw the expression on the chief of staff's face. Now you should understand why I even know that you are reluctant, I still have to use Piaotian Silk Network. We are now qualified staff shortages, and those who came out of the crash course still need a certain amount of time to grow."

"An army from scratch to something, and even its final development and growth requires not only experience on the battlefield, but also time. The running-in between the troops, the training of the troops, and especially the maturity, all take time. I believe that although this army still seems young now, one day it will become truly powerful. It makes all his enemies scared when they hear his name."

"I don't know why you have the ability, that is, you are unwilling to come out to join the Anti-Japanese United Army to serve the country, nor are you willing to serve this so-called Manchukuo. You would rather guard the poor and bear the reputation of being a traitor and be a small police chief in Jiamusi. You must know that with your ability, even in a puppet army will be valued."

Speaking of this, Yang Zhen waved his hand to stop Ma Chunsheng from opening his mouth and trying to explain, and said, "If you do this, you must have your own ideas. When I think of these ideas you want to say, you will naturally say them. Now I will not ask you. Now I just want to ask you one thing, do you have the confidence to join hands with us and build our troops into an anti-Japanese iron army that will make all enemies afraid of?"

After hearing Yang Zhen’s words, Ma Chunsheng smiled and said, “Sir Yang is very young, passionate, and more confident. Judging from his performance in the previous stage, I also believe that Chief Yang has this ability. People should have ambitions, especially soldiers should have ambitions. Without ambitions, where will the progress come?”

"However, Chief Yang, don't you think what you asked is a bit redundant? If I really don't want to do it, it will be useless even if Chief Yang detains my family. I believe that although Chief Yang is fierce to the Japanese and those traitors, he will not attack the elderly, weak, women and children. I still believe in Chief Yang's character."

Hearing Ma Chunsheng's disguised promise, Yang Zhen smiled slightly but said nothing more. He knew that the person in front of him was like him, who was a person who easily refused to make promises. But once he made a promise, he would definitely be a person who was consistent in his words and deeds. When a few years later, when Ma Chunsheng, who had become the top commander of Yang Zhen's subordinates, fell on the eve of victory, Yang Zhen remembered the conversation between the two that night and couldn't help but sigh for a long time.

Just as Yang Zhen and Ma Chunsheng were having a night chat, after Shigeru Sawada on the front line of Qunce Mountain and the tank he was riding was damaged halfway through, he walked for more than a day before he ran to Kenji Toehara, who was in a county town. However, on the phone, the fierce quarrel was exposed because of how to return to rescue Jiamusi.

In fact, before Kenji Doihara, who had lost all his communication tools, arrived in Yuyuan County, Shigeru Sawada knew about the attack on Jiamusi. After all, Yang Zhen just rushed to Jiamusi and did not clear the various strongholds on his periphery. The deafening sound of gunfire in Jiamusi could even wake up the dead, let alone these police departments on the periphery?

It was just because there was no radio station, and when these people took a lot of effort, they found Shiro Sawada through the field phone number set up by Shiro Sawada to contact the Japanese and puppet troops in Tangyuan County, Yang Zhen had already taken over almost the entire Jiamusi City.

After receiving the report of dense gunfire sounds from Jiamusi City, Shigeru Sawada immediately realized that this was the opponent taking advantage of Jiamusi's Japanese and puppet troops that almost all concentrated on the Qunce Mountain line, and tried to take down Jiamusi to create a tense situation in the rear. For him, as long as the opponent took down Jiamusi, all supplies of the Fourth Division fighting on the Qunce Mountain would be cut off.

Although he received a report of Jiamusi's attack, Shigeru Sawada did not act rashly, especially did not easily transfer troops to defend. Because although he guessed the general intention of his opponent's move, he was not sure. There was only one thing he could be sure of, that is, this opponent's detour to Jiamusi was definitely not an isolated action.

In Shigeru Sawada's view, in the comparison of the strength between the Kanto Army, Manchuria and this anti-Manchu army, even if they luckily occupy Jiamusi, it would be impossible to defend it. Therefore, they besieged Jiamusi, but they only wanted to attract the main force of the Imperial Army attacking the Qunce Mountain line to help Jiamusi, so as to curb the Imperial Army's attack on the Qunce Mountain line. If this anti-Manchu army wants to take advantage of the full opportunity of the Jiamusi Imperial Army's dispatch, Lieutenant General Shigeru Sawada will not believe it.

Shigeru Sawada seemed extremely calm when facing the attack on Jiamusi. Even if he lost direct contact with Jiamusi, he did not mobilize any soldiers. Although he was prepared, he still did not think that his opponent could capture Jiamusi, who had a brigade of the Fourth Division and a large number of puppet Manchukuo military and police guards, and had built good fortifications.

As the commander of the division, Shigeru Sawada knew what kind of virtue his subordinates were. In his opinion, his subordinates fought in the field and killed them. However, they were still competent by relying on the city to defend themselves. Especially in Jiamusi, a large amount of private goods from various departments of the Fourth Division were reserved. Even for these property, his subordinates would work hard.

Therefore, Shigeru Sawada was as stable as Mount Tai. Not only did he not draw troops back to help immediately, he even strengthened his attack on the front line of Qunce Mountain. In his opinion, as long as he knocked out Qunce Mountain, the opponent's nest and the most important rear, even if the opponent occupied Jiamusi in a short period of time, it would be nothing. Without the army that the rear relied on, he could only be a group of bandits. The opponent's roundabout Jiamusi has proved the importance of the base of Qunce Mountain to them.

However, although Lieutenant General Sawada did not send troops back to the rescue when he received an attack on the front line of Jiamusi, he did not immediately send troops back to the rescue, but he was also ready to return quickly. He gathered all the cars dispatched by the Fourth Division with the army on the temporary road on the Miaolingzishan line. He also used the 44th Regiment of the 11th Division and the puppet Manchukuo Army to gradually withdraw the troops of the Fourth Division one after another.

Shigeru Sawada was calm, but his immediate boss Kenji Doihara could not be as calm as him. After running to Yuyuan County in a mess, he felt safer Kenji Doihara, who was extremely furious when he learned that Shigeru Sawada learned that Kamusi was attacked and did not immediately send troops back to the rescue.

Jiamusi is an important military center occupied by the Japanese army in Northeast China. Not only is the extremely important strategic location, it also reserves a large amount of military supplies, which is an important strategic frontier for the Japanese army to go north. Once Jiamusi is lost, it will have a great impact on the entire Japanese army's strategy on the Soviet Union.

Moreover, excluding military factors, as a major transportation route, the main starting point for Japan's immigration to the Northeast Manchuria region, there are also a large number of Japanese immigrants and various Japanese merchants who have dreams of making money. Once these large number of Japanese immigrants and merchants suffer major casualties, let alone Lieutenant General Kenji Doihara, even General Kenyoshi Ueda, the commander of the Kanto Army, will find it difficult to bear this consequence.

Kenji Doihara's tone was very tough and ordered Shigeru Sawada to immediately draw the main force of the Fourth Division back to the Kamusi. The subsequent attacks on the front line of Qunce Mountain were handed over to the 44th Regiment of the 11th Division and the Manchurian**, and were unifiedly commanded by Major General Yoshikazu Kuroi Iwai. If Lieutenant General Shigeru Sawada cannot recover Kamusi in the shortest time, then he will report directly to the Kwantung Army and Tokyo Base Camp, and remove Lieutenant General Shigeru Sawada from his position as the commander of the Fourth Division.

Before putting down the phone, Kenji Doihara once again emphasized that the Fourth Division must return to the aid, and no soldiers are allowed to stay. Jiamusi must be recovered in a short time and wiped out the anti-Manchu and anti-Japanese armed forces who were brave enough to attack Jiamusi.

After a long struggle to argue, Shiro Sawada had to bow his head after a long time of hard tone and attitude. After putting down the phone in his hand, Lieutenant General Shiro Sawada sighed to Major General Kobayashi Asazaburo, the commander of the 36th Brigade beside him and said, "Lieutenant General Kenji Doihara only stared at Kamusi, but he didn't know that Qunce Mountain was their foundation."

"As long as the Qunce Mountain is destroyed, even if the bandits are fierce and lose the rest and supplies on which they rely on, how long can they last when the teacher and veterans are tired? An army that does not stabilize the rear can only become a bandit. Will Lieutenant General Kenji Doihara really think they can stay in Jiamusi and wait for a decisive battle with our army?"

"Once our entire army rescues Jiamusi, leaving only the Forty-fourth Regiment and Manchuria**, it will be lucky that we can make a comeback without success. Lord Dohihara is indeed a genius in acting as a spy, but when it comes to combat, he has a very short-sighted vision." @ya
