    But because of the differences in combat concepts and equipment.

    Da Qiao Ryosuke also knew that if they could withstand the enemy's attack from the front for three days, it would be considered a huge success.

    So when he was under attack throughout the city, he repeatedly sent telegrams to Okamura Neiji.

    Ask him to send reinforcements no matter what, to support the whole city.

    ¡°But Okamura Neji¡¯s troops are also limited.

    Many counties and cities around Baoding are also besieged by the main force of the Eighth Route Army. It is difficult to protect themselves, let alone deploying troops to support Baoding City.

    It is precisely because of these reasons that Da Qiao Ryosuke's troops have now fallen into a situation of fighting alone.

    They can only rely on the more than 10,000 soldiers in their hands to hold on to their positions and prevent Baoding City from being recaptured by the Fourth Army.

    In Xia Yang's headquarters, several major commanders in the Zhengzhou area have gathered here for a military meeting.

    At this time, their location was less than 10 kilometers away from Zhengzhou City.

    The strength of several divisions of the Japanese army were all reduced to the vicinity of Zhengzhou City.

    Therefore, Xia Yang's troops' attack on Zhengzhou in the past two days did not go smoothly.

    Because the Japanese army did have too many defensive troops, if they attacked forcefully, they would cause many casualties.

    But in the first theater, Commander Tang, more than 100,000 elite troops of the National Army were still waiting for the opportunity and stood still.

    There is no intention to attack Zhengzhou and support the attack of Xia Yang's four armies.

    Xia Yang knew that this person was planning to reap the benefits.

    "The commander of the First Theater Command, Commander Tang, responded via telegram that their troops are ready for combat and can depart within a week."

    Wei Xing put a telegram in front of Xia Yang and said.

    When Xia Yang saw the telegram, he sneered, then turned his head and said, "Even if it takes another week, they probably won't leave.

    They are waiting, waiting for Zhengzhou City to be captured by us, and their troops will come over to seek a share of the credit.

    When Commander Tang reports his military exploits to the summit, he will definitely add that their troops in the first theater fought a bloody battle with the Japanese army.

    Together with Xia Yang¡¯s four armies, they jointly attacked Zhengzhou City. The Japanese army occupied Zhengzhou City for several years.  "

    When Wei Xing heard these words, he was furious.

    He cursed secretly for being shameless, and then said to Xia Yang: "We can't stay like this. Why don't we send a telegram to the chairman of the committee and ask him to urge Chief Tang.

    We can¡¯t let them watch the show all the time. Our army¡¯s offensive in the Zhengzhou area is not going well.

    If the delay is too long, the Japanese army will dispatch troops from other places to support them.

    ¡°Are these brotherly troops just watching us fight alone against the Japanese army?

    Xia Yang shook his head and said: "If it was useful to send a telegram to the Chairman, I would have sent it long ago.

    ¡°In fact, I even think that this is an act tacitly approved by the Chairman.

    He doesn¡¯t want to see that our Fourth Army is too strong.

    That will slowly exceed the scope of his control, which will make him feel uneasy.  This is the so-called great power that shocks the master.  "

    There are several commanders in the headquarters at this time, all of them are division commanders and first-level commanders whom Xia Yang trusts.

    So even if he said these words, it would not matter.

    There is no need to worry that these words of yours will reach the ears of the Chairman.

    Liu Changlong, the commander of the 1st Armored Division, said: "If they still don't support us, our army's attack plan on Zhengzhou may not be able to continue to be implemented.

    Because the Japanese defenses around Zhengzhou were very strong.

    Even the heavily armed troops of our armored division cannot effectively destroy it.  "

    Xia Yang nodded and said: "Of course I know this. The Japanese army is working hard in the Zhengzhou area. A large number of permanent defense fortifications have been built nearby. Many of these fortifications cannot be destroyed even by our army's heavy artillery.  "

    "Then shall we continue to launch an attack on Zhengzhou?"

    Wei Xing next to him asked aloud.

    Xia Yang smiled, then shook his head and said: "Actually, I have no intention of attacking Zhengzhou at all.

    Zhengzhou is just a fishing bait, used to suck Ogawa LilyThe main Japanese divisions he led.

    Our real goal is in Hebei, in the Ping-Tianjin area!  That is the focus area of ??our attack.  "

    At this time, Wei Xing and Liu Changlong were only focusing on the battle in the Zhengzhou area. They didn't know that Mancheng had been attacked two days ago.

    And Baoding City.  At this time, it was also being attacked by the main force of the Fourth Army.

    Not only that, Shanhaiguan was also attacked this evening.

    At this time, the enemies inside and outside the pass have been completely isolated. They can only communicate by sea and air force.

    As for Xia Yang¡¯s next target, it is the Pingjin area and the Hebei area.

    So Xia Yang put his palm on the map, and then kept moving north.

    He said to Wei Xing and Liu Changlong: "Did you see it? This area covers the entire Hebei Province, including the Pingjin area.

    It even extends to Shanhaiguan. This area is what I really want.

    As for Zhengzhou, north of the Yellow River, it is too close to the sphere of influence of the first theater of war. Chief Tang will definitely not be so easy.  Give us this piece of fat to eat.

    "So what if we capture Zhengzhou? In the end, we will still be able to gain some advantage over some small-timers."  We will regain this place sooner or later, but not yet.  "

    ¡°Then what you mean is that we want to recover most of the area north of the Yellow River.

    Rather than targeting Zhengzhou as the ultimate target of this attack?  "

    Liu Changlong asked.

    In fact, this was also the first time he learned of Xia Yang's comprehensive strategic intentions.

    He had always thought that the army was planning to control the northern Henan and Zhengzhou areas.

    Then it cut off the important channels for the Japanese army to connect the north and the south, forcing the Japanese army to contact the Japanese army in the south from the Shandong area.

    But now it seems that he still thought too simply.

    Xia Yang's appetite is greater than he imagined.

    He wants to conquer the Pingjin area, as well as Hebei and northern Henan.

    These places will become the sphere of influence of their four armies.

    Being attacked like this in the Zhengzhou area was always just a bait to attract the Japanese troops in Hebei and Pingjin areas.

    ¡°Now the Japanese army¡¯s position has been disrupted by us.

    And our main force has also entered the Hebei and Pingjin areas.

    So, we are going to start the final step of this plan.  "

    Xia Yang looked at the two of them and said.

    "The last step, what is the last step?"

    The two people asked a little strangely.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
