Regarding the invading four-pronged Japanese army, Li Guoyao was most worried about the battle on the front line of Shanting!
Firstly, it is because Zhang Tengjiao is responsible for the frontline operations at Shanting, and secondly, the terrain conditions on this line are the most favorable to the defenders.
Although the Japanese army has an absolute advantage in terms of military strength and weapons and equipment, especially in terms of military strength, there are more than 5,000 Japanese soldiers and less than 2,000 under Zhang Tengjiao, but Zhang Tengjiao and others are very familiar with the terrain on this line.
"The semi-mechanized troops of the Little Devils really can't play a big role in the mountainous areas. Except for the assistance of vehicles, the mobility of the Infantry of the Little Devils is far inferior to Zhang Tengjiao's troops.
※Also, Zhang Tengjiao*s command has fought against the Shinozuka regiment in front of him many times. He already knows this Japanese regiment very well and has no psychological fear of the Japanese army, so holding back the Japs is not a big problem.
Li Guoyao was also very relieved about the independent mixed sixth brigade coming from the direction of Lanling. Although there was only one brigade of Xie Baojun on the Lanling front line, like Zhang Tengjiao's command, the road from Lanling to Xiong'er Mountain was also crisscrossed with ravines, making it difficult to defend. Difficult to attack.
Li Guoyao was most worried about the invading enemies from Pingyi. Although the strength of the Japanese army on this route was the smallest among the four invading enemies, the garrison on the northern front was not very strong, with less than a thousand soldiers. .
But now Li Guoyao*s headquarters really doesn*t have any extra troops to transfer to the northern front, so they can only let them carry it out first.
" Anyway, there is nothing important on Xiong'er Mountain. Even if it is captured by the Japs, it won't matter. The most important thing now is how much success they can achieve in this counterattack.
Following Li Guoyao's order, the troops quickly took action, including Li Guoyao himself, who also led his troops to the front-line battlefield and personally commanded the enemy in the direction of Zaozhuang.
As for the security of the base area, Li Guoyao handed it over to the Minister of Logistics Huang Shang and the newly formed recruits. Their task was not to fight the enemy, but to try their best to transfer the people in the defense area.
Fortunately, the people were very cooperative this time. After seeing how ferocious the Japs were last time, they knew that once the Japs entered the village, they would definitely massacre the village. Therefore, as soon as Li Guoyao's command was notified of the transfer, the people quickly packed up their things. I followed the troops up the mountain.
After all, no one is invulnerable. We all only have one life. It is natural to fear death!
Hy身taro Kimura is full of confidence in this battle. You must know that this time they have concentrated almost all the mobile forces of the Imperial Japanese Army in southwest Shandong, not only their 32nd Division, but also the 6th Independent Mixed Brigade. The regiment, the 21st Division, and even the Imperial Association Army, which had little combat effectiveness, were dispatched.
Even excluding the troops left behind, he commanded more than 24,600 combat troops, and the number of troops left behind definitely exceeded 30,000!
Thirty thousand people, this is equivalent to a complete Class A division, or even worse.
※I think back when Seishiro Itagaki commanded the Fifth Division to sweep through North China, there were only 28,000 soldiers.
※At the moment, not only do we have more troops than the Fifth Division, but the enemy on the opposite side is far inferior to the nearly 300,000 main force of the Jinsui Army.
This is a standard lion fighting a rabbit. As long as you try your best, it is completely conceivable to destroy the enemy.
Like most officers of the Japanese army, in the eyes of Kimura Hyoutarou, the Chinese army is like balls of prepared sushi, ready to be eaten at any time.
※What can even the famous Li Guoyao*s troops do? Not to mention that there are various signs that this army has been abandoned by the Kuomintang government. What can they do at their peak?
Right now, this army is hiding in the nooks and crannies of the mountainous area like woodchucks. It is not something to be afraid of at all. It is conceivable that it will be defeated thousands of miles in front of the bayonet of the Imperial Japanese Army.
Although Kimura Hy身taro was also surprised by Li Guoyao's achievements, he did not think that this unit could do well in the hands of his 32nd Division.
Therefore, after coming out of Zaozhuang City, Mucun Division dispatched its cavalry regiment to burn, kill and loot the Chinese villages outside Zaozhuang.
Since the outer villages were a bit far away from the Xiong'er Mountain base area and close to Zaozhuang City, there was no time to move, and soon more than a dozen villages were surrounded by the Japs.
"Towards these Chinese people, the little devils had the same attitude. They slaughtered all the old and weak, while the young and middle-aged people tied their hands with ropes and escorted them back to Zaozhuang City.
Because they had to constantly kill and arrest people, the Japanese army marched very slowly. They could only march more than ten kilometers in a whole day.
?Of course, this is related to the large number of densely populated villages outside Zaozhuang. Once entering the mountainous area, the number of villages will be greatly reduced, and the marching speed of the little devils will inevitably speed up.
On the night of June 8, Kimura Hy身taro was stationed in Suizhuang, a dozen miles northeast of Zaozhuang. Under the guidance of the puppet army commander Liang Da, Kimura Hy身taro "visited" the home of Li Fugui, the richest landowner in Suizhuang.
As expected, the Li family experienced a catastrophe that night. A large amount of gold and silver accumulated by generations of ancestors went into Kimura Hy身taro's pocket. Even Li Fugui's unmarried granddaughter was captured by Kimura, an old devil. Ruined.
The only good thing is that Kimura did not embarrass Li Fugui's family, and he did not kill anyone, perhaps because the wealth he grabbed made him very satisfied.
But other people in Suizhuang were not so lucky. After entering Zhuangzi, the little Japanese gathered all the people together. All the old and weak were stabbed to death with bayonets, while the young people were imprisoned together.
That night, the eldest daughter and daughter-in-law of Suizhuang experienced a nightmare
But what Hy身taro Kimura didn't know was that on that night, troops belonging to the Shandong Guerrilla Corps also arrived at this line, and they were still arranged according to the combat plan. A big war was already brewing quickly, and it would only happen when the time came. A complete explosion.
※Perhaps he was addicted to robbing and killing, or maybe money moved people*s hearts, so when he got up the next day, Kimura Hyoutarou stayed in Suizhuang and did not move. Instead, he sent troops to continue raiding the surrounding towns.
In Kimura Hy身taro*s own words, the Imperial Japanese Army suffered heavy losses in the battle some time ago, and it was time to settle accounts with the Chinese.
Of course, the main debtor is Li Guoyao's department, but these ordinary people are also unruly people, and we should collect some interest from them!
Although Hy身taro Kimura came from a military family, his father was only an army major and died early during the Russo-Japanese War, so his family background was average.
The poor family created this old devil*s greedy and lustful character. Before he was promoted to the head of the 32nd Division, Kimura was the director of the Ordnance Bureau. This department was not considered a Qingshui Yamen, but its funds were also very limited, and there were not many opportunities for corruption.
So although this guy is a Japanese general, his life is very tight!
However, since he led his troops to invade China, Kimura Hy身taro has seen that China is really full of wealth. Even a small village has wealthy gentry. Basically, they can make a lot of money every time they raid. Full.
This seemed to suddenly open a window and find a way, a shortcut to the rich.
Because of this, the greedy Kimura would rather the troops march slower than to rob first. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
