    Following Li Guoyao's order, more than 5,000 main members of the Shandong Guerrilla Corps went deep into the Xiong'er Mountain area in the northeast of Zaozhuang, intending to establish a new anti-Japanese base here. At the same time, the troops took this opportunity to take a good rest.

    Without the harassment from Li Guoyao¡¯s troops, the little devils in Zaozhuang City can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

    The Shandong Guerrilla Corps is exhausted from the past few days of fighting, and the little devils are also a bit overwhelmed, especially since the independent mixed sixth brigade itself is a newly formed second-line garrison, and the quality and combat effectiveness of its soldiers need to be improved.

    And the battles in the past few days also gave Tsuchiya Bingma a certain understanding of his opponent, and he also realized that he had underestimated the enemy before. Therefore, he learned from the experience and decided to take it seriously.

    ¡°Then Tsuchiya soldiers and horses held two military meetings in Zaozhuang City attended by officers above the captain level. They first summarized the reasons for the defeat in the previous two days, and then formed a written report and submitted it to the 12th Army Headquarters.

    Then Tsuchiya soldiers and horses thought that it was unlikely that they could completely eradicate the Chinese army in southwest Shandong if they independently combined into the 6th Brigade with only a few thousand people, so they asked for help from the 12th Army Headquarters, hoping to help  They brought in more troops.

    After reading the report of Tsuchiya's soldiers and horses, the 12th Army Headquarters also realized that the national army in southwest Shandong was not simple. The frequent appearance of "heavy artillery" proved that this army was not an ordinary small army, but an army.  The real workhorse.

    At the same time, the Japanese military's special high-tech department also discovered an important piece of information, that is, the Nationalist Government had established the so-called Sulu Theater as early as November last year. Not long ago, it also specially appointed Northeastern Army veteran Xuezhong as the Sulu Theater.  The commander-in-chief and deputy commander-in-chief are not just general people. One is the chairman of Shandong Province Shen Honglie, and the other is the chairman of Jiangsu Province Han Delin.

    Now, not only in southwestern Shandong, but also in southeastern Shandong and northern Jiangsu, a large number of Kuomintang troops are gathering, and the number is astonishing.

    In addition, a large number of Tubal Roads have also been discovered in the western Taipei area. The numbers of these Tubal Roads have also been confirmed. They are the 115th Division that severely damaged the 21st Brigade Transport Brigade of the Fifth Division at Pingxingguan in Shanxi in the 12th year of Showa.

    After investigation, it was learned that this Tubal group entered Shandong from Hebei a month ago. It first appeared in the Juancheng and Yuncheng areas on the south bank of the Yellow River in western Shandong, and the first battle was in Fanba Town.

    In that battle, Tubal Road annihilated more than 800 people from a security regiment of the Imperial Association Army, which caused considerable impact.

    However, just when the 12th Army Headquarters was preparing to send troops to encircle and suppress the Tubal Road, the main force of the opponent disappeared. There were only some scattered troops of the Tubal Road in the local area, which could not make a difference.

    So now the 12th Army Headquarters suspects that this mysterious armed force in southwestern Shandong may be a regular army affiliated with the Sulu Theater of the National Government, or it may be the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army.

    Although it is impossible for the Eighth Route Army to have such good weapons and equipment, the 115th Division is considered a strange unit among the Tubal Road. Their former division commander liked positional offensive and defensive warfare very much, but he did not like guerrilla warfare very much.

    And according to the information detected by THT, the 115th Division is the one with the largest number of troops and the most sophisticated weapons and equipment among the three divisions on Tubal Road.

    "At present, the main force of the 115th Division suddenly disappeared, and there was suddenly such a mysterious force in southwestern Shandong Province. This can't help but make people think too much.

    In view of this, the 12th Army Headquarters immediately ordered the troops attacking northern Jiangsu to stop the attack. Except for leaving a small number of troops to stabilize the occupied area, the rest of the troops immediately returned to their respective stations and stepped up alert.

    At the same time, the 12th Army Headquarters also realized that the garrison strength gap in Shandong was too large. There were currently only three divisions and two mixed brigades in such a large province, so it directly reported to the North China Front Army Headquarters, requesting the mobilization of more troops.  to Shandong.

    The North China Front Army's response was also timely, and the newly formed 32nd Division and the independent mixed 10th Brigade from the base camp were urgently transferred to Shandong and placed under the operational order of the 12th Army Headquarters.

    After receiving the news, Otaka Kamezo was overjoyed. Once all these troops arrived, his 12th Army would have as many as four divisions plus three mixed brigades, plus the troops directly under the Legion Headquarters.  The troop strength will exceed about 95,000.

    In addition, there are ten brigades and a total of 26 regiments of the Imperial Association Army in Shandong, with a total strength of more than 30,000.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­

    You must know that at the beginning of the Shanghai Campaign, General Matsui Iwane only had three divisions with 50,000 to 60,000 people in his hands. During the Battle of Xinkou, Seishiro Bengaki only had one and a half divisions with more than 40,000 people.  But there are tenWith tens of thousands of people, it is not easy to completely wipe out the resistance forces in Shandong.

    More importantly, the 32nd Division and the 10th Independent Mixed Brigade have landed in Tanggu, Tianjin, and will take the train south from now on, and are expected to arrive in Shandong in three days.

    As soon as the reinforcements arrive, they will be able to completely clean up all the resistance forces in Shandong. By then, whether it is the Kuomintang troops, the Tubal Road, or those bandits with good character, those who are willing to surrender can spare their lives.  , if you stubbornly resist, they will all die!

    Later, the 12th Army Headquarters sent a report to the frontline units, ordering them not to act rashly for the time being. While strengthening their vigilance, they should immediately conduct a survey of the enemy's situation in the defense area, and wait for reinforcements to arrive to give the opponent a thunderous blow

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? When the little devils of Shandong could frequently mobilize their troops, the atmosphere in the Jiangnan region became turbulent again!

    The city that was targeted by the Japanese army this time was Nanchang City. In fact, as early as when the Japanese army attacked Wuhan, its 11th Army had the task of capturing Nanchang. To this end, Okamura Neiji sent the 106th Division and the 27th Division southward.  As a result, due to the terrain, getting lost, etc., all the attacking troops suffered heavy losses, especially Junroku Matsuura's 106th Division, which was lost in the Wanjialing battle, so this plan was forced to be abandoned.

    Now that the Japanese army has occupied Wuhan for several months, all units have been resting and recuperating, and the lost soldiers, weapons and ammunition have also been replenished, so the 11th Army Headquarters has begun to consider invading Nanchang again.

    The purpose of the Japanese army's attack on Nanchang was to cut off the transportation from Zhejiang, Anhui, and Jiangxi to the rear area via the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Railway, and to defeat the Kuomintang field troops in this area, so as to maintain stability in the area south of Jiujiang.

    At the same time, occupy Qingyunpu Airport in Nanchang area to shorten the distance of air attack to the south of our country.

    Subsequently, the Central China Front Army issued a notice requesting the 11th Army to break through the enemy's positions with a sudden attack from the current confrontation, seize Nanchang along the Nanxun line in one fell swoop, and divide and crush the enemies along the Zhejiang-Jiangxi line.  At the same time, one force must advance from the Poyang Lake side to make it conducive to the main force's operations."

    After capturing the vicinity of Nanchang, the important line to the south of the place should be secured immediately.

    At the same time, the "Central China Dispatch Force" also negotiated a coordinated operational plan with the "Chinese Front Fleet" and ordered the 16th Division in Hubei and the 22nd Division in Hangzhou to conduct operations on the Han River before starting operations in Nanchang.  and Qiantang River took several actions to contain and confuse the Chinese army.

    The Nanchang operation time is set for early March, and the start time of the attack is determined by the 11th Army Headquarters.

    After receiving the order from the Central China Front Army Headquarters, the commander of the 11th Army immediately held a combat meeting and formulated a detailed combat plan.

    Okamura Neiji decided to use the reorganized 106th Division as the main attack in this battle, consisting of one unit each of the 3rd Division, the 116th Division, the 6th Field Heavy Artillery Brigade, the Tank Group, and the 3rd Flying Regiment.  The 3rd Navy Fleet, the 1st Marine Corps, and the 2nd Combined Air Force of the Navy and Air Force cooperated.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
