.On May 14, a dense sound of guns and cannons like a storm broke the delicate balance on the battlefield in Qinzhou for a long time. The 21st Army of the Japanese army trapped in Qinzhou suddenly went east and launched a fierce and somewhat crazy local counterattack against the Chinese army surrounding it. In order to achieve tactical suddenness this time, Lieutenant General Ando, ​​who had a cunning and changeable command style, deliberately reversed the Japanese army's habit of launching attacks at dawn, and risked night battles and set the attack time at 3 pm.

At the beginning of the war, the Japanese army had been replenishing for a long time, but by surprise, they occupied all the Japanese army with great force. After quickly defeating a division of the 36th Army, the main force of the Niujima Division advanced eastward, rushed to the Chinese army with heavy troops to guard the Lihekou, Dongdaemen of Qinzhou. At the same time, the Nakamura Brigade, which was striving to the southwest, also broke through the first blockade of the Chinese army. For a moment, the Chinese army caught off guard and became anxious and were in a tight spot. The battlefield situation seemed to be developing step by step towards a trend that was extremely beneficial to the Japanese army. The "big character explosion" of Lieutenant General Ando, ​​who had been honest for a long time, made the small Qinzhou Bay again the area that the Chinese army commander was most concerned about in the shortest time.

The location of the Guilin Camp of the Military Commission, Bagui Hall.

This 500,000 and 600,000 Chinese troops in Guangdong and Guangxi, which was quite angry in the past, became solemn and solemn and passionate by the tense atmosphere of the war. From that endless stream, he was in a hurry to consult and secretary, he could no longer find the staff of the senior command organ who was indifferent. The cynical carelessness he was used to, and he knew how important this war relationship was. Everyone here was so trembling and meticulous.

The heart of the camp, the war room.

This wooden hall with a floor of hundreds of square meters is undoubtedly the most noisy and noisy place in the entire camp. Seven or eight middle-aged generals are directing and judging directly opposite the wall. Perhaps only at this moment, these generals who have been away from the battlefield for many years and have been used to working on paper can regain the feeling of being a storm on the battlefield. To be honest, the high-level leaders are very devoted. It is because they are too devoted that they are not aware of the original discussion of this article.

Unconsciously, they escalated to the point of dispute or even quarrel. The issue caused them to be red in the face. It was the purpose of this offensive battle initiated by the 21st Army of the Japanese army. Some of the high-ranking leaders determined the Japanese army's combat purpose as an attempt to regain Fangcheng, some said that the Japanese army wanted to peek at Hepu and form a two-headed snake formation with the firepower support of the Japanese ships; some said that the Japanese army obtained it both and restored the earlier situation of the three cities and tripods echoing each other. In short, there are many different opinions.

On a chair behind these high-ranking leaders, the sturdy-faced leader seemed to be calm and closed his eyes and resting. Everyone in the war room admired the calm and unyielding general shown by this first-level general who dominated the southern country. Only those who knew very well were aware of this "Guan Zhong" who was very good at erratic skills. Only when they encountered difficulties that the Commission could not overcome would they show such "resilence and leisure".

I am posing in a large depth and multi-level siege. Even if the Japanese have more elite soldiers, they will be able to attack. After all, the troops are limited. With more than 20,000 people, how can I break through and set up three blockade lines in a short period of time? Ando is not an ordinary person, and he will not be able to see that as long as the Japanese attack momentum is blocked, he will inevitably face our army's multiple attacks. Could it be that he is really a dangerous chess with two sides and a break through the center? It should not be! Ando's troops at this time are at most as last time as the last time

The war was at the beginning of the war, and most of them were supplementing the troops for relatively low combat power. Facing my army of more than 300,000, he was sure to win in one fell swoop? These mediocre quarrels would not be arguing. It would be great if Liu Weizhang had not been to be the chief of staff of the Fifth War Zone by Degong. He, a top student at the Japanese Army University, knew his own and his opponent, would definitely be able to help me at this time! Compared with those who were criticized by him as mediocre, the battalion director who was worthy of the outstanding military strategist at that time, thought much deeper and farther.

"Appoint the Fifth Army, who was originally stationed in Shangsi, immediately move south quickly, and forcefully cut off the connection between the Nakamura brigade and the main force of the 21st Army before dawn tomorrow, and then join forces with the 31st Army guarding the city to attack the Japanese Nakamura troops, which have become an isolated Japanese Nakamura troops. Tell Qiu, the two commanders of Wei, that their two troops have a total of 90,000 troops. If they can't defeat the Nakamura brigade, which is only eight or nine thousand at most, don't blame me for treating them for waiting and watching and ineffective combat. As long as Nakamura is surrounded, I will not believe it, and Ando continues to be his shrunk.

Turtle. He ordered Huang Chi, who was stationed in Lingshan, to assist Lihekou with the New 72nd Division of the New 18th Army. He ordered the frontiers of Qinzhou Bay that had not yet confronted the Japanese army head-on, and once they were attacked by the Japanese army, they would fight for combat strength. If there were any people who could not survive with the position, they would be killed without mercy! He told Yulin that he would be prepared to take over Lingshan's defense at any time. "If you can't figure it out, it would be better not to think about it. In order to attack Ando's true intention, the battalion director made a cruel decision. Even the Fifth Army and the New 18th Army were used in advance, the second-line troops that were originally reserved for counterattack.

"Director, the New Twenty Army is not a direct army like the Fifth Army. It's not good to order the orders above the level! At the same time, is it a telegram to the Forty-five "Corporate General" to urge the New Twenty Army to implement it?" A veteran lieutenant general Gao Shen reminded.

In the last battle, the battalion director who was used to giving orders to Cheng Jiaji was just a commander. It was really hard to get his orders directly on him, so he nodded and asked someone to send power according to the advice of the senior officer.

The battalion director dared to quickly defeat a whole brigade of the Japanese army with air superiority in the field, which was unexpected by Lieutenant General Ando, ​​who commanded the troops according to his previous habitual thinking. This time, even if the Chinese army was ten times more determined than intentional, no matter how strong the Japanese army was, I am afraid that this mute would be determined. In fact, the reason why the battalion director dared to give this order that no one dared to think about a few months ago was that it was all because of morale, majesty and confidence in the last battle. In many cases, the two armies fought against each other, and the confidence was the breath in their hearts.

The manager of the camp can calculate and calculate. After all, he is not the omnipotent Buddha, but he can only be considered a little Zhuge. Not to mention anything else, at least he can't see it. After such a lot of effort, Ando Kiri really wanted to find a Japanese Peace Army that was far away from a hundred miles away, and in a military sense, almost negligible. From a normal logic, this cannot be blamed for the manager of the camp. After all, no one would have thought that the Japanese who could save their underwear would suddenly become confused and deliberately fight a battle that was destined to be worth the loss.

After all, war is not an independent act, but a continuation of political struggle. In the final analysis, in a sense, the Japanese battle not only aims to eliminate the vitality of Chinese military forces. It is also a secondary goal to attack the Chinese government psychologically and prestige. The most important thing for "Operation of Heavenly Punishment" is the increasing anti-war and war-weariness in Japan. In a word, it is a very popular saying in a certain era, this is a political battle. It must be settled.

At five o'clock the next morning, in the small reception room of the 21st Army Command of the Japanese Army, Lieutenant General Ando and his chief of staff, Major General Nakabara, were waiting anxiously. Last night, taking advantage of the opportunity of Qinzhou to make a pot of porridge and quietly loading the ship out of the port, the Yamashita Detachment composed of 4,000 elite soldiers.

"Hiss commander, Yamashita Detachment urgently." A minor officer reported.

"The Yamashita Detachment successfully landed at the gate and did not encounter strong resistance. In addition, the naval ships escorted it also controlled the sea surface in the port of Tieshan Port." The Central Plains Major General, who was only in his early thirties and was a general in the Japanese Army who was so handsome that everyone would be jealous of, was so excited that he even forgot to use his honorific words.

In fact, Lieutenant General Ando was ecstatic when he heard this news, and was definitely not inferior to the Major General of the Central Plains. Ando, ​​who was so proud that there were only 4,000 Japanese troops landing at the gate, not 40,000, which posed a comprehensive threat to the main force of the Chinese army. Thinking of this, Ando himself knew that the 21st Army currently does not have the strength to encircle hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops, and could be defeated by opponents one by one. Besides, the Japanese Navy anchored in Qinzhou Port does not have that much transportation capacity. It seems that amphibious operations are the advantage of the "Imperial Army". After the reinforcements of the two divisions of the Kwantung Army arrived, and after the reinforcements of the two divisions of the Kwantung Army arrived, they could still repeat today's story. Lieutenant General Ando, ​​who tasted the sweetness, did not believe that the Chinese army could control every section of the huge Beibu Gulf that could land.

"Your Excellency Commander, Nakamura's brigade urgently sent a large number of Chinese troops behind it, and it is estimated that there are quite a few troops." A Zhongzuo, who was so anxious that he didn't even knock on the door, brought news that he was so bad that he could not be bad. He defeated Lieutenant General Ando, ​​who was still immersed in his fantasy, and the Major General of the Central Plains who were full of joy, directly came to hell from heaven.

Lieutenant General Ando, ​​who realized that he had made a low-level mistake of underestimating the attack spirit of the Chinese army, relied on his inherent calmness and practice, quickly stabilized his mood. After looking at the map for a short while, he said in a slightly tired tone: "Order the troops still in the Fifth Division and the Taiwan Mixed Brigade that were still in the city and must be taken back to the Nakamura Brigade. Order Niujima to ask him to retract appropriately to prevent the Chinese army from tangling them. Send a newspaper to the Tokyo Base Camp and say that the first step of the "Tian Punishment Operation" has been implemented smoothly and the paratroopers can be dispatched."

At this time, a strong mixed with heavy moisture gust blew from the open window, causing the Japanese-style screen in the small reception room to shake. In Ando's eyes, the wind was sending a signal that a storm was coming!

In the early morning, a small army of forty or fifty people, with a strong armed force of forty or fifty people walking through the mountains and ridges. The army was wearing Chinese uniforms and armbands with the number of the New Twenty Army. Even the weapons were five gates and eight gates, made in Hanyang, three gates and large caps, German-made m34, and Czech light machine guns. It can be said that there is no problem from the surface. If someone has the opportunity to observe carefully from a close distance, he can find several places that are not right. First, most of them would rather communicate with gestures than spit out half of them; second, the posture of these people holding guns always makes them feel indescribable awkward. However, these unusual places, those mountaineers who pass by quickly by this team will not notice.

This unit is indeed a problem. They are actually the advance special agent team led by Chi Tanakasa, and Chi Tan's special agent team is to indicate targets and ensure exercises for the paratroopers who are about to airborne and ensure their safety before landing.

"Miyamoto, you can lead this path, right?" Chitanaka Saki, who was tossed by this rugged and tortuous mountain road, was already at ease. He was already wondering whether Miyamoto's minor Jiro, who escaped from the prisoner-of-war camp by bribery, deliberately took him and others in the mountains in circles because he was afraid of death.

"Please use the word "No Speech. There are many hunters who collect herbs here. If you reveal your identity and attract the Chinese army, we will never be able to get to the place you want to go in your entire life. There is still a ten-mile mountain road to reach the small plain in the mountains, Qiliping. After Qiliping, it is not far from the mining area where the prisoner-of-war camp is located." Miyamoto, who came from a merchant family, speaks very smoothly Chinese. He also relies on his own language skills to escape.

"Okay, you can continue to lead the way!" Chi Tian said in Chinese, which was also quite fluent.

A coward who is afraid of death, wait for your value to disappear, let me see how I deal with you! Coincidentally, when Chi Tian was thinking about how to kill a donkey after the matter was done, Miyamoto, who was forced to act as this guide, was also cursing in his heart that this ignorant Chi Tian would be best to be blown into pieces by a mortar.

At this moment, Chita, who was riding a blind horse, didn't know that the two regular rotations of the Peace Army in the mining area provided by Miyamoto, who had been away from here for three or four months, had only more than 500 people, would have been outdated, otherwise he would have cut Miyamoto, who had "told military information" now.

In fact, the forces of the two regiments of Hojo's troops, which were responsible for protecting nearly everyone in the past two months, have reached more than 1,100 due to the enthusiastic participation of Japanese prisoners of war.
