Watching the doctor leave, Chairman Jiang felt a little complicated. During this period, he really couldn't eat well or sleep well, and was under great pressure.
The pressure on Chairman Chiang came from two aspects. One was the military pressure from the Japanese army, and the other was the split within the Kuomintang party.
After the Battle of Wuhan, the Japanese army stared covetously at the main force of the Chinese army retreating westward, and made many attempts to annihilate the main force in the Fifth Theater in order to continue its Western invasion.
Two months ago, while the Japanese army was fighting the main force of the National Army's Ninth Theater on the Nanxun Line, the enemy's 11th Army once again sent troops to the Zaoyang area and launched a full-scale attack on the defense area of ??the Fifth Theater.
This time the Japanese army mobilized 3 divisions and a cavalry brigade from Jiangbei. According to the combat order from the 11th Army Headquarters, the 3rd Division, 13th and 16th Divisions need to be ready for war in early June.
During this period, Okamura Neiji also gave special instructions about this battle, requiring all troops to strictly keep secrets in a virtual and real way; the main purpose of the battle was to annihilate the opponent's army, rather than to capture the city; during the attack, the fearless power of the imperial army must be used traditional spirit.
According to the plan, the enemy's 3rd Division, coordinated by the air force, first started a diversionary attack in the east on June 1, attacking in four directions from Mengfandian, Xujiadian, and Xihe north of Xinyang and Yingshan. Xinji and Sixinji in the northeast of Zaoyang make detours to the Zaoyang area.
The attack route from Xihe River advanced along Lishan, Tangxian Town, and Wushan; the attack route from Xujiadian to the north passed through battles with the 89th Division and the 110th Division of the 13th Army of Zhang Zhen of Tang Group Army, and occupied the territory on the 6th. High town.
When heading further north to Hehe, they encountered more fierce resistance from Wang Zhonglian's 85th Army, and did not reach the Xinji area until the 11th.
One and a half battalions of the 34th Infantry Regiment of the 3rd Division in Xinyang, commanded by its commander Colonel Suzuki, headed west from Youhe, Wudian, Xiaolindian, and Yuehe. After several battles, on the 10th, Tongbai County was captured.
After 12 days of fighting, the 3rd Division's four-pronged offensive troops arrived at Hongyi River and Xixinji in Tongbai County, and detoured from the east route to the northeastern region of Zaoyang.
The 16th Division and the 4th Cavalry Brigade were covered by the air force on the 5th and attacked north along the east bank of the Han River from Zhongxiang. After fighting with the 59th Army and the 77th Army of the 33rd Group Army, they captured the position defended by the 180th Division on the 6th. The Changshoudian captured Zhangji and Caiyang on the north bank of Gunhe River on the 7th, and then circled from the west of Zaoyang to Taiping and Huhe, about 20 kilometers north of Zaoyang, and the 3rd Division in the Xixinji area to the east. Forming the first roundabout encirclement of the area north of Zaoyang.
The 4th Cavalry Brigade, following the attack of the 16th Division on June 5, entered the Maji and Chenjiaji areas north of Changshoudian on the 7th, arrived at Zhengjiagang and Fangjiaji on the 8th, and arrived at Caijiaji on the 9th. When Yang and Zhangji crossed the Gun River, they quickly reached the north bank of the Gun River because the water was shallow and the river bottom was sandy. According to the predetermined plan, they quickly moved towards Xinye and Tang Dynasty with 3 cavalry regiments and 1 cavalry brigade. He advanced and carried out a second-level mobile roundabout encirclement of the area far north of Zaoyang.
On the evening of the 9th, the cavalry brigade forded the Tang River with a muddy bottom. On the 10th, they forded the 200-meter-wide Baihe River at dawn, and captured Xinye at noon. Then they gave up and marched eastward, arriving at Xinye on the 11th. Hanzhuang to the east, and then divided into two routes to continue eastward.
On the 12th, they occupied Tanghe after a fierce battle with the 30th Division of the 2nd Group Army's 30th Army. They immediately withdrew and returned south to join the 16th Division that had entered Huhe and Taiping north of Zaoyang.
After the enemy's 13th Division located in Jingshan launched an attack from Huangjiaji and Pingba Town on June 5, it was known that the main attack target of this operation, the 31st Group Army, was fighting in the Gaocheng and Hehe areas north of Yingshan. The 3rd Division fought fiercely, so they quickly attacked Zaoyang and Suiyangdian in the north, preparing to cooperate with the 3rd Division's attack. The enemy occupied Zaoyang on the 7th, passed Lutou Town in the northeast of Zaoyang on the 11th, and arrived in the evening arrived near Qianjiagang, and then met with the 3rd and 16th Divisions and the 4th Cavalry Brigade in the northeastern area of ??Zaoyang.
In this battle of the 5th Theater, in addition to the main force resisting on the front, a considerable number of troops are still persisting behind enemy lines, especially in the Dahongshan area.
When the 31st Group Army put up fierce resistance in the Gaocheng and Hehe areas, it found that the enemy was double encircling Tongbai, Zaoyang, Xinye, and Tanghe. On the 10th, it was decided to remove the 23rd Division, led by Zhang Zhen, commander of the 13th Army, on the 10th. In addition to the independent 1st and 2nd brigades conducting guerrilla operations in Tongbai Mountain area, the main force of the rest of the group army retreated north through Pingshi and Xixinji using alternate covering methods. They arrived at Biyang on the 15th and were subsequently transferred. Stationed in the Zhenping and Neixiang areas west of Nanyang in the 1st theater.
When the enemy's 11th Army launched a frontal attack in early May, the Jiang Defense Forces and the troops in the Dabie Mountains immediately launched an attack to contain the enemy.
The 41st Division recaptured Lujiazhai in the southwest of Jingshan on June 6, and on the 13th it recaptured Wamiao and Yanmenkou. The first part of the 7th Army in the Dabie Mountains invaded the north gate of Macheng on May 30, and on June 4 they surrounded and annihilated the enemy's first part in Dayoujian, north of Hong'an.The 2nd Guerrilla Column completely destroyed the transportation and communications from Xiadian to Huayuan in Dawu County.
On June 12, after the enemy completed the double encirclement north of Zaoyang, they immediately issued a return order to the three attacking divisions and the 4th Cavalry Brigade on the same day, and stipulated that on the way back, they would clear out the remaining troops in the 5th theater in stages. Troops in the rear of the Japanese army, especially in the Changgang area of ????Dahong Mountain District.
On the 13th and 14th, the enemy began to retreat from the Zaoyang area. The 13th Division was blocked by about 4 divisions of the Kuomintang army remaining behind the enemy in the Changgang area. After the 17th, the enemy returned to their original positions, and the 3rd Division occupied Suixian.
In this battle, the casualties in the 5th Theater were approximately 28,000, while the Japanese casualties were approximately 2,450.
Judging from the record, this was definitely a big defeat. The ratio of casualties between the two sides was more than ten times different.
The only good thing is that Japan has adopted the policy of preparing for war with many countries, so it decided to maintain a considerable number of mobile troops on our country's battlefield without using its strength to the limit.
Therefore, on the frontal battlefield, tactical attacks were often carried out, and the combat policy of "attacking without occupying" was adopted with the purpose of annihilating the main force of the anti-Japanese forces; in the areas occupied by North China and Central China, they promoted strengthening public security and Step up support for traitors and puppet troops, and carry out counterfeiting activities to use China to control China, in order to achieve the purpose of long-term occupation.
Therefore, although they achieved considerable results in Zaoyang and other places this time, they did not occupy these newly captured places. Instead, they quickly returned to their respective defense areas after severely damaging the fifth theater, giving the national army a chance to breathe.
But this new type of tactics of the Japanese army put huge pressure on Lao Chiang and the Fifth Theater. Once the Japanese army promoted this kind of rapid attack tactics with the purpose of eliminating the effective strength of the national army, the consequences would be disastrous.
What made Chairman Chiang even more troubled was that as the war situation gradually became tense, the Kuomintang army was ineffective in fighting on the frontal battlefield, which directly led to a split within the Kuomintang. On December 8 last year, Wang Jingwei (Zhao), leader of the pro-Japanese peace faction and vice president of the Kuomintang, Ming), he made an excuse to go to Kunming to give a speech; according to the pre-planned treason and surrender route, he first flew to Kunming under the jurisdiction of "King of Yunnan" Long Yun, and then transferred to Hanoi, Vietnam.
After Wang Jingwei and his wife, Zeng Zhongming, Zhou Fohai and others fled to Hanoi, Vietnam, they immediately issued a "bright message" to reduce the enemy, causing an uproar in public opinion at home and abroad.
According to the latest information collected by the Military Command Bureau, Wang Jingwei and his wife and others were in Japan during this time and were received by high-level Japanese officials. They seemed to be interested in forming a separate government in China.
This is not a good thing for Chairman Chiang. You must know that Wang Ni has always emphasized that he is the orthodox of the Chinese Kuomintang, the legal successor of the pre-war Nanjing government, and the true practitioner of Sun's Three People's Principles.
To this end, they showed a political tendency that was obviously different from other "ordinary" traitors, that is, they fiercely competed with Chongqing for some political symbols that had long been attached to the Kuomintang.
In the process of competition, Wang Ni created unique political ethics and concepts, and responded to the constraints of various external factors to shape a political outlook that it believed was acceptable to all parties under the conditions at the time.
Wang Ni¡¯s behavior of attaching the political symbols of the Kuomintang to himself will inevitably have a complex impact on China¡¯s political ecology.
Although Chongqing had ordered the arrest of Wang Jingwei and others last month, Chairman Chiang knew that as long as Wang Ni did not return to Chongqing, it would be a big trouble. There was no guarantee that a second Nationalist Government would appear in China that day. It was something he didn't want to see anyway, but he was powerless to stop it.
It was in this situation of internal and external difficulties that Chairman Chiang, who had always lived a very self-disciplined life, also suffered from insomnia and nightmares. In addition, he was getting older and his body was not as good as before. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
