Chapter 331 The Situation of Both Sides
In Panjin City.
"Report, a telegram came from the First Regiment, saying that the 134th Independent Mixed Brigade has been completely wiped out."
A communications soldier came up to Xu Shiyou and said.
"very good."
Xu Shi nodded: "Send a telegram to Commander Luo, the mission is completed, and the troops of the Beiping Front Army can be transported!"
"Yes."
"What should we do with the surrendered Japanese soldier?"
At this time Liu Qiren asked Xu Shiyou.
An hour ago, after realizing that the enemy had bypassed him to chase the main force, Momota Jiro began trying to lead his men to break out, but was blocked by Murai's Marines.
Finally, Murai guessed that the Japanese in the city were in low spirits and might be able to be persuaded to surrender. He tried it and it actually worked!
"Please ask Commander Xiao for instructions!"
Xu Shiyou pondered for a moment and said, "Murai persuaded the man to surrender. Let's ask the navy for advice on how to deal with him!"
"Okay, I'll send a telegram to ask later!"
Fengtian, inside the Japanese Third Area Army Headquarters.
"Report to the commander. Five minutes ago, the commander of the 134th Independent Mixed Brigade, Ichiro Okamoto, sent a farewell telegram!"
A communications soldier came up to Hou Gong Chun timidly with a telegram in his hand and whispered.
"Bang....Baka! A bunch of rubbish!"
Hougong Jun slapped the signalman in the face with such force that the telegram in his hand fell out of his hand.
"I knew it!"
The signalman covered his face with his hands, wanting to cry but without tears. Ever since Hou Gong Chun came back from the meeting in "Xinjing", his temper has been getting worse and worse.
No one in the telecommunications room dared to deliver today's telegram, for fear of being beaten. After being pushed around, it finally landed in the hands of him, a new recruit who had just joined the army not long ago.
Even though he was careful enough, he still got beaten unexpectedly!
"Please calm down, Commander!"
Chief of Staff Otsuka Kazuma picked up the farewell telegram that had fallen on the ground and waved his hand to let the unfortunate signalman leave.
"The Eighth Route Army has laid siege to Jinzhou, and now they are trying to break through Panjin. I suspect they want to attack Panshan County and cut off the retreat of the Jinzhou defenders!"
"The situation is critical, Commander, please put the war first!"
Looking at the sincere Daping Yima, Hou Gongchun took a deep breath and adjusted his mentality: "How is the Eighth Route Army in Liaodong Peninsula?"
"No movement yet, but they are massing troops in Gaizhou City and building an airport in Yingkou."
"I guess they might be waiting for follow-up troops to besiege Fengtian, or they might be waiting for the right time to attack Tonghua!"
Kazuma Ootsubo pointed at the map and introduced it to Jun Haremiya.
Looking at Panshan County and the location of Liaodong Peninsula, Hou Gong Chun frowned.
The positions occupied by the Eighth Route Army are all strategic locations, especially Panshan County. If they succeed, Jinzhou will be in danger.
"Send the 107th Division, the 117th Division, and the 9th Independent Tank Brigade to reinforce the Panshan County defense line."
Hou Gongjun thought for a moment and then continued, "The 63rd Division and the 79th Independent Mixed Brigade will strengthen the Anshan defense line."
"The rest of the troops remain in place!"
"Yes."
............
Xinjing.
"Report, the Eighth Route Army has crossed the Greater Khingan Range and is attacking Qiqihar!"
A signalman ran into the Kwantung Army headquarters with a telegram in his hand: "Qiqihar garrison is in urgent need of help!"
Chief of Staff Yukio Kasahara took the telegram, looked at it, walked to the sand table, and placed several chess pieces representing the Eighth Route Army at the location of Qiqihar.
You can see this realistic Northeast sand table, with the Eighth Route Army's chess pieces placed in Tongliao, Jinzhou, Liaodong Peninsula, and Heilongjiang direction.
"Commander, the army attacking Qiqihar should be the Baotou Front Army."
Yukio Kasahara took the intelligence about the Baotou Front Army and said: "The Baotou Front Army has a small number of people, only about 100,000, but they are highly mechanized, with a large number of tanks and helicopters!"
"Their offensive capabilities are very strong. If we don't reinforce Qiqihar, they will take it in about a week."
"Four armies, each one is difficult to deal with!"
Mei Jin looked at the flag on the sand table and said calmly, "Don't worry about Qiqihar. Tell the local garrison to hold on and wait for help."
"We will lay mines and anti-tank piles along the Daqing-Harbin front line and wait for them to reach Harbin."
"As for the harem Chun."
Meijin touched his chin and thought for a while: "I believe he can stop the enemy!"
"Order Kita Seiichi to transfer the Third Army and the Fifth Army to Changchun. I want to concentrate our forces to defeat the enemy in Tongliao first!"
"But there are still members of the Anti-Japanese United Army in Heilongjiang who have not been wiped out!"
Yukio Kasahara was a little worried: "If the Third Army and the Fifth Army are transferred away, Commander Kita will only have three divisions left at the headquarters!"
"enough!"
Mei Jin said calmly: "The enemy only has a brigade of troops. If he can't handle it with three divisions, then he shouldn't be the commander. He should apologize as soon as possible, so as not to drag us down!"
A week later, Tongliao.
Taihang Type 1 and Type 2 fighters were competing with Japanese fighters for control of the sky over Tongliao.
From time to time, a fighter plane would fall with black smoke, but if you look closely, you will find that as time goes by, the fighter planes of the Eighth Route Army have become more powerful.
They were evenly matched in a one-on-one fight, but now one Taihang fighter can beat two Type 97 fighters.
Among them, the Japanese's main fighter jet was the Type 97 fighter, and there were a small number of Type 1 fighters. From a performance point of view, they were no match for the Type 1 and Type 2 Taihang fighters.
There is another more important reason, which is that the Kwantung Army's flying elites and veteran pilots were transferred to the Pacific and Southeast Asia to fight the foreign devils!
Now the Kwantung Army's Air Force Group is composed of a small number of veterans fighting with a large number of new recruits. It can be said that when they fight against the Eighth Route Army, they are simply evenly matched and the generals are matched with good talents!
Perhaps the only difference is that as the fighting time increases, the Eighth Route Army will be able to better utilize the performance of the Taihang Type 1 fighter and defeat the enemy!
No matter how powerful the Japanese pilots are, they cannot escape the performance gap of their fighter jets!
"Oh, that's a good fight!"
"Hey, look over there, another Type 97 has fallen!"
In a hidden observation post outside Tongliao, Air Force Commander Wang Bi was watching the battle in the sky through a telescope, occasionally bursting into shouts of joy.
He really liked this battle. The current Kwantung Army Air Force Group was the best sparring partner for their Eighth Route Army Air Force.
Although there were still a large number of casualties, the growth rate of pilots was almost visible to the naked eye.
"Commander, the commander-in-chief is looking for you!"
At this time, the guard came in and said in a low voice.
"what's up?"
Wang Bi frowned. He didn't really want to leave here. This was the front line of the air force battle between the two sides. He could adjust the combat deployment at any time according to the situation.
"It seems that our scouts have discovered a large-scale gathering of Japanese soldiers."
"A large-scale gathering?"
Wang Bi put down the telescope and said, "Let's go back and see what's going on!"
