Although they have established a corresponding industrial system in Shanxi, there is still a big gap compared with the complete industrial country of the Japanese army.
There are many things that Xia Yang needs to purchase and replenish within the system.
And Yamamoto Isoroku seems not to be aware of this problem.
Yamamoto Isoroku and Oda Masazawa still prefer to fight the Fourth Army quickly and decisively in North China.
Because the Fourth Army¡¯s frequent mobile warfare had given them a real headache.
Not only that, the remaining Japanese troops in North China also frequently requested assistance from them.
Especially Okamura Neiji, he personally sent telegrams many times to request Yamamoto Isoroku, hoping that he could mobilize at least one division of troops to go south to attack the Hebei area.
In this way, the offensive pressure on the front of the Japanese North China Expeditionary Force will be greatly reduced.
Their weapons and ammunition were on the verge of being exhausted during the long battle.
If this battle continues for another month or so, these Japanese troops may not be able to do anything except charge.
After wiping out the two Japanese divisions, Xia Yang ordered the Fourth Division and the armored forces to march 50 kilometers south. And many defensive positions were built along the way.
In addition, Xia Yang also asked the cavalry troops to continue their activities in the southern area of ????Pingjin, so as to contain some of the Japanese troops as much as possible.
It¡¯s just that Yamamoto Isoroku and Oda Masawa have realized that Xia Yang¡¯s military activities in the southern region are just distracting their attention.
Therefore, these two men just dispatched a division of troops and deployed them in the southern area of ????Pingjin to confront Xia Yang's cavalry division and the Eighth Route Army.
Two days later, several small-scale exchanges of fire occurred between the advancing troops of both sides.
These small-scale battles are basically encounters between the reconnaissance troops dispatched by China and Japan.
Although the scale is small, after many battles, both sides have gradually formed a vague dividing line.
In order to prepare for this real decisive battle, Yamamoto Isoroku deliberately stopped his troops and built some defensive positions.
They waited until the main force of the other two divisions of the Japanese army arrived before they advanced again.
These two additional Japanese divisions basically made up for the losses of the other two Japanese divisions in the Qinhuangdao area.
¡° Moreover, in addition to the Japanese local divisions, the troops dispatched this time also had a very mysterious unit.
This news was passed to Xia Yang by ANBU¡¯s intelligence agency in Japan.
Some of the intelligence networks Xia Yang deployed in Japan even just got the code name of this unit "301"
But what is the specific mission of this mysterious force? They don't know.
"They didn't even know how many people there were in the army this time and what kind of combat they were engaged in.
Out of caution, Xia Yang, who has always used troops quickly, also asked his troops not to blindly advance southward for the time being.
Instead, they built a position and planned to confront the Japanese army for a period of time.
Using this period of time, he can mobilize more troops.
At the same time, we can also figure out, what is the mission of this mysterious force?
Xia Yang asked his intelligence troops to intercept and decipher as many Japanese telegrams as possible.
However, there is no relevant information about this unit in the intercepted Japanese telegrams.
Members of the ANBU speculated that the enemy's force was likely to use some code words for communication.
??For example, using everyday combat terms to refer to something specific.
"To outsiders, there seems to be nothing unusual about these daily combat operations.
But in the eyes of certain specific units of the Japanese army, these combat terms may have other meanings.
These things cannot be decrypted by computer, and the corresponding codebook must be obtained.
??Or only by capturing Japanese prisoners who understand these code words can we decipher the secrets.
To this end, Xia Yang dispatched a small unit of the guard regiment to sneak into the rear of the Japanese army and conduct relevant investigations.
Whenever you get relevant information, you must report it immediately.
Of course, in the past few days, in addition to getting more of this magicalIn addition to the news about the troops, Xia Yang did not stop replenishing his troops.
He could also feel that the number of Japanese troops on the front was almost twice his.
Although Xia Yang has full confidence in the combat capabilities of his soldiers.
However, facing a Japanese army that was twice their size, Xia Yang felt somewhat worried.
If he is not careful, even if he only loses 10,000 or 20,000 troops, Xia Yang may have to change his offensive strategy and continue to delay this battle.
That is not the result Xia Yang wants to see. He must try his best to concentrate superior forces to end this battle.
After considering this clearly, Xia Yang even began to take a gamble and mobilize a large number of troops from Shanxi's local garrison to supplement and strengthen his troops.
The local security groups originally stationed in many cities in Shanxi, as well as the militia and reserve forces, are also within the scope of his recruitment.
After simple reorganization, the soldiers of these units will take transport planes and fly directly from Shanxi to Qinhuangdao to replenish the front-line combat troops.
Such a large-scale replenishment of troops brought the number of Xia Yang's troops on the front to nearly 100,000.
Although some of them are logistics personnel, only 80,000 to 90,000 troops can actually be used in frontal combat.
However, this also gave Xia Yang more confidence.
The biggest significance of the extra 10,000 or 20,000 people is to give a commander like Xia Yang the opportunity to make mistakes.
As a senior commander, Xia Yang rarely makes mistakes, but it is impossible for a person to never make mistakes.
??If Xia Yang made a mistake in any decision during the decisive battle with the Japanese army, it resulted in the loss of troops.
With these extra 10,000 people, Xia Yang will have at least one more chance to make a mistake.
And this extra chance of trial and error may help Xia Yang find the best way to eliminate this Japanese army.
Yamamoto Isoroku and Oda Masawa also felt that the Fourth Army troops in front of them seemed to be preparing for a decisive battle with them.
Not to mention anything else, there were hundreds of transport planes flying over the heads of the Japanese troops every day.
Each transport plane carries not only various weapons, ammunition and logistical supplies, but also a large number of additional troops.
Xia Yang was busy preparing for the decisive battle, and the Japanese army was not idle either. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
