    On November 6, the Japanese Army's North China Front "mopped up" Gubeikou and Miyun in the northern area of ??the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei anti-Japanese base area and the Shenze, Anping, and Raoyang areas in central Hebei with the A, B, and C corps respectively.

    And more than 20,000 people from the blockade corps were deployed along the border of Shanxi and Hebei provinces from Shangzhai and Xiaguan in the north, through Gaohongkou, Bolan, Shangshe, and to Niangziguan in the south to implement the blockade.

    Since then, the "iron wall encirclement" and "mopping up" of Beiyue and Pingxi Districts in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei anti-Japanese base areas have begun.

    Based on the movements of the Japanese and puppet troops, the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region issued a combat order on November 7, stating that the main force of the Japanese army would turn to Beiyue District and Heping West District, and required all units to continue to complete anti-"mopping up" preparations, carry out rigorous reconnaissance, and prevent sudden enemy attacks.

    On the 8th, the Japanese North China Front turned the focus of its "mopping up" to the Beiyue and Pingxi areas.

    The 21st Division of the A Corps and the 15th Independent Mixed Brigade, with a total of more than 3,000 people, were divided into three columns from Hongmeichang, Zhuoxian and Laishui to attack the Shidu area of ????Xifangshan.

    More than 8,000 people from the 110th Division of the B Corps were divided into three columns from Dingxing and Fangshun to besiege the Loushan and Shuiquan areas of Beiyue.

    The main force of the 26th Division of the C Corps and the 8th Independent Mixed Brigade, with a total of more than 15,000 people, was divided into three columns from Xinle, Zhengding, and Jingxing, and surrounded and compressed Chenjiayuan, Liumuyuan and Pingshan County from southeast to northwest.  Party, government and military organs of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Border Region in the Chenjiazhuang area of ??Lingshou County.

    The 41st Division of the Blockade Corps and the independent mixed 3rd and 4th Brigades, with a total of more than 5,000 people, were used to cooperate with the C Corps.

    In order to smash the "mopping up" by the Japanese and puppet troops, the Eighth Route Army's Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region decided that the main force would be divided into battalions according to the region, and timely transferred to areas behind the enemy's flanks such as the Pinghan-Hankou and Zhengtai-Taiwan Railways, and actively carry out activities on the blockade lines and strongholds on the outside.

    At the same time, one part of the main force will cooperate with local troops to carry out extensive guerrilla warfare on the interior lines, carry out blockades and flank attacks, in order to delay, exhaust and consume the enemy, and cover the transfer of organs and masses.

    The internal and external troops and the people then acted separately and carried out quick battles in Dongchengzi, Nanchengzhai and the north of Wutaicheng, inflicting heavy damage on the Japanese and puppet troops.

    More than 200 militiamen from Pingshan County alone wiped out more than 60 Japanese and puppet troops in the Mitangya area.

    After the Japanese and puppet troops defeated the encirclement, starting from November 10, heavy troops were mobilized to carry out a large-scale encirclement on both sides of the Shahe River centered on Fuping and the Pingxi area centered on Pengtou and Xiaofengkou.

    In view of this, the leading organization of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, which stayed on the inner line to command operations in the Niangzishen area of ??Tang County, was immediately transferred to Majushi, six kilometers northeast of Fuping.

    ¡°However, with enemies approaching from the southern, eastern and northeastern fronts, we passed from Majushi to Fuping and south to Shahe River, then jumped to the outer line of Malan area, where we met the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Branch and the Beiyue District Party Committee.

    At that time, the Japanese and puppet troops were heavily fortified south of Shahe, and more than 7,000 people from the party, government and military agencies in the border area were transferred to the Leibao area north of Shahe.  As a result, we are still trapped in a narrow circle of about 25 kilometers from east to west and about 30 kilometers from south to south.

    "Moreover, the Japanese army has discovered them. Several planes have taken turns bombing them. The encirclement is getting smaller and smaller, and they are in a very disadvantageous situation.

    At this time, the senior cadres of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region were a little confused. The Japanese army seemed to know their whereabouts very well. Wherever they went, the main force of the Japs would be able to chase them, as if they had eyes.

    Afterwards, Commander Nie immediately held a combat meeting and mobilized everyone to analyze the reasons.

    But what¡¯s terrible is that before their meeting started, intelligence personnel reported an emergency, saying that more than 4,000 enemies from the south had arrived at the stables and Wentang, only 6 kilometers away from the temporary headquarters of the headquarters.

    Immediately afterwards, intelligence officers reported that 3,000 enemies from the north had arrived at Duanjiazhuang, which was only 7.5 kilometers away. There were also more than 5,000 enemies from the east toward Baiya heading toward Leibao, and there were still more enemies from the west toward Anziling.  More than 5,000 enemies are coming here like a tide.

    "Everyone was shocked. The Japs' actions were too abnormal and too fast. Enemy planes came to bomb them at dawn. Wherever they went, the planes followed them.  The Japanese army seemed to know every move they made.

    Therefore, many people wonder if there is a traitor in the headquarters, which makes people panic!

    Speaking of Li Guoyao from Sumushan, when the news that the Japanese army concentrated a small force of 100,000 troops to besiege the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region reached Sumushan, Li Guoyao was also shocked!

    He knew that the Japs might retaliate for their previous actions. After all, he not only killed a major general's brigade leader, but also robbed three million kilograms of grain from the Laiyuan area, which directly caused the Japs to lose the rations for the garrison in the area.  became a big problem.

    ??Whether Okamura Neji is doing it for the domestic base campEither to give an explanation or to boost the sluggish morale below, something must be done.

    And judging from the actions and situation of the national army in this battle, the Japanese obviously did not realize that this matter was not actually done by the Eighth Route Army, and they would inevitably target the Eighth Route Army in northern Shanxi.

    However, Li Guoyao did not expect that the little devil would be so ruthless. He would mobilize an army of 100,000 people, and launch attacks from central Hebei, northern Shanxi, and central Shanxi at the same time. This was completely intended to eat up the Eighth Route Army along the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei line.  .

    If it comes to Tada Shun, Li Guoyao may not care, but Okamura Neiji has to guard against him!

    This person is not just a China expert, he is a real tactician and half a strategist.

    This is not flattery. Okamura Neji has a very impressive resume. He has said before that he graduated from Lu Shi and Lu Shi and served as an instructor at Lu Shi. At that time, Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, Chief Yan, Sun Chuanfang, Tang Enbo, He Yingqin, and Hu Zongnan  They all studied at the school.

    This is nothing, mainly because Okamura is quite talented in combat command. As early as during the Japanese-German War, he commanded the Japanese troops and made great contributions in the battle to capture Qingdao, and his military rank was promoted from major to lieutenant colonel.

    Later, when Okamura Neiji served as the chief of staff of the Japanese Shanghai Expeditionary Force, he planned the "January 28" Incident of invading China, triggering the Songhu War of Resistance.

    During his tenure as the Chief of Staff of the Kwantung Army, he commanded two divisions to defeat the Kuomintang Song Zheyuan's 29th Route Army, forcing Chairman Chiang to compromise and sign the "Tanggu Agreement", allowing Japan to easily occupy the three northeastern provinces.

    Then, Okamura Ningji commanded the troops to invade Luandong and forced the Kuomintang to sign the "Hemei Agreement" by force.

    In May 1938, he served as the commander of the Japanese 11th Army. He fought from Shanghai to Nanjing and Wuhan, conquered cities and territories, and killed many people, thus earning the nickname "Axe General".

    After capturing Wuhan, Okamura Neiji was promoted from lieutenant general to general due to his outstanding military exploits.  At present, all the first-level commanders of Japan's other armies are lieutenant generals, and only Okamura Neji is a general, which shows how powerful this person is.

    It makes me shudder to think about such an awesome war madman commanding an army of 100,000 to sweep through the Eighth Route Army defense zone.

    More importantly, Li Guoyao knew that after Okamura Neiji took office, he continued to raid the North China Front, which eventually caused the Eighth Route Army to encounter unprecedented difficulties since the Anti-Japanese War. The base area was reduced by more than half, and the population was also reduced by less than half.

    Knowing that he could not sit idly by, he immediately ordered the Second and Third Regiments of the Independent Brigade and the 177th Division in Tianbaozhai to pay close attention to the situation on the front line. If the Eighth Route Army needed assistance, they could directly go into battle without asking for instructions.

    At the same time, the troops in the Sumushan area also seized the time to actively prepare for war and were ready to go into battle at any time!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
