Li Guoyao is a resolute man. Now that he has formulated a battle plan and unified the thoughts of his soldiers, he must work hard for the next thing.
He knew very well that it was not easy to seize the entire Northeast and completely eliminate the Kwantung Army.
The reason is that the Northeast is too big, including not only the three northeastern provinces in later generations, but also a large piece of northeastern Hebei, which is now called Rehe, and part of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region in later generations.
The total area of ??all areas is 16.7 million square kilometers, which is two or three times larger than the entire North China combined.
Not only is the territory large, but more importantly, the Kwantung Army is also very powerful right now. During the previous meeting, Li Guoyao said that the Kwantung Army had 800,000 people. That was just a general statement. In fact, the actual strength of the Kwantung Army at the moment The number of troops may not be that large, but the combat effectiveness is definitely beyond imagination.
We must know that while the Japanese army was launching wars in the Pacific and Southeast Asia, in order to closely guard against the Soviet Union, the Kwantung Army's 13 infantry divisions maintained a high degree of alert against the Soviet Union.
Therefore, the Kwantung Army currently has more troops than the 10 divisions of the Southern Army attacking Southeast Asia.
At the beginning of the Southeast Asian War, the Japanese base camp instructed the Kwantung Army to "ensure silence" in its relations with the Soviet Union in order to concentrate its efforts on attacking the British, American, and Dutch armies in the Pacific.
When the Western Pacific and Southeast Asia were successively occupied by the Japanese army, and the war situation was temporarily favorable to Japan, the Japanese base camp had already considered the next strategic direction and decided that in order to establish a long-term undefeated situation, the strategic deployment should be adjusted in a timely manner and addendum New troops and command organizations will strengthen combat readiness against the Soviet Union in the north to ensure strategic initiative.
To achieve this goal, when the war in Southeast Asia came to an end, some artillery, tank, aviation, engineering and other troops originally belonging to the Kwantung Army returned to the Northeast.
During this period, the Kwantung Army was ordered to newly establish infantry divisions, artillery, tank troops, aviation, engineers and front army and corps-level senior command structures, and intensify targeted combat readiness training for the troops to enhance combat readiness against the Soviet Union in an attempt to cooperate with the German army. , launching an attack on the Soviet Union from the Far East.
According to information collected by the intelligence department, the new units established by the Kwantung Army after 42 years include the 1st Front Army Headquarters, the 2nd Front Army Headquarters, the 2nd Army Headquarters, the Mecha Army (Tank) Headquarters and the 1st Tank Army. , 2nd Division, Tank Teaching Brigade.
In addition, the Japanese army also established a water headquarters and reorganized the Hunchun garrison east of Yanji into the 71st Division, headed by Lieutenant General Toyama Noden.
In comparison, the Kwantung Army's new units are more technical units, such as the newly built Mudanjiang Heavy Artillery Regiment, the 23rd Field Heavy Artillery Regiment, the 1st Independent Heavy Mortar Regiment, and the 25th and 26th Anti-aircraft Artillery Regiment. Regiment, 11th, 12th, 13th Independent Heavy Artillery Battalion, 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th Mortar Battalion, 15th, 16th, 24th Tank Regiment, 78th Combat Flying Group, 203rd Combat Flying Training Group, 204th Squadron, 66th Assault Squadron, 55th Independent Flight, 90th Reconnaissance Squadron, etc.
After the expansion, the Kwantung Army's troops have been greatly increased, with each packhorse division having 28,200 men; the vehicle division has 24,440 men.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Anan transferred the former commander of the 11th Army stationed in Wuhan, and Yamashita Fengwen transferred the former commander of the 25th Army stationed in Malaya.
Especially Yamashita Tobumi. In the attacks on Malaya and Singapore, Yamashita commanded his 5th Division, 18th Division, Guards Division, and 56th Division, and defeated the British army in a very short period of time. , forcing Lieutenant General Percival to surrender. From then on, Yamashita became a hero in the minds of the Japanese, so he was known as Yamamoto (56) of the Navy and Yamashita (Hongbun) of the Army.
The vast area, powerful lineup and luxurious command team are all obstacles that stand in the way of Li Guoyao's troops returning to their hometown.
Therefore, it is extremely unwise to advance rashly to the northeast. Therefore, Li Guoyao proposed a three-step strategy. Before the army advances into the northeast, the Chabei Prairie must be captured.
Chabei Grassland refers to the grassland area in the north of Chahar, which includes the entire Xilingol Grassland and parts of Chifeng and Tongliao.
Although the entire Chahar is currently under the occupation of the Japanese army, the real main force of the Japanese army is gathered in Cha'nan, that is, the Zhangjiakou front line, the Bashang area, Xilinhot and other places are still in the hands of King De.
?????????????????????????????????????????? King DeHe happened to go back to Sunit Right Banner with Li Shouxin to worship his ancestors, and he was lucky enough to escape with his life.
Although the troops and industries they left in Guisui were gone, a new Mongolian autonomous government was quickly established in Xilinhot.
Although the cavalry group of the Jiujiu Army had carried out a harassing attack here before, since they did not receive an order to occupy it, Lu Dashan and others just hit and ran, and had no plans to occupy it for a long time.
But this time is different. If Li Guoyao wants to advance into the Northeast, he must first open up a safe passage to the Northeast. Chabei Grassland will bear the brunt.
On January 15, Li Guoyao reviewed the newly formed cavalry group. Except for the two cavalry regiments currently fighting in the Chabei area that did not participate, the remaining seven cavalry regiments and a large number of technical arms all participated in the review.
As a field force implementing the first step of returning to his hometown, Li Guoyao attached great importance to the cavalry group.
This cavalry unit with a total strength of more than 30,000 people will be the sharpest sword in his hand, and will be directly inserted into the chest of the Japanese and puppet troops in the near future.
After the expansion of the cavalry group was completed, they headed for Chabei under the order of Li Guoyao.
According to Li Guoyao's order, the cavalry group was divided into two groups. One group was commanded by Ma Desheng and entered the Bashang area via Huade, the Shangdu capital.
The other route, commanded by Han Huriga and Gu Mingtang, started from Jining and went all the way north, passing through Sunit Right Banner, Sunit Left Banner, and Abaga Banner, and directly attacked Xilinhot.
Li Guoyao¡¯s goal in this battle was very clear, which was to capture the Chabei Prairie as a springboard for the attack on the Northeast.
"However, Li Guoyao was busy mobilizing troops, and the little devil was not idle either.
With the frequent mobilization of troops in the temporary ninth army defense area, the Japanese North China Front Army was also very nervous. For Okamura Neiji, Li Guoyao's troops were like a sharp sword hanging at the throat of the North China Front Army.
After all, the Xinghe and Tianzhen lines are too close to Zhangjiakou and Peiping, especially the threat to Zhangjiakou is unimaginable. They are more than 100 kilometers away from each other, and the cavalry can arrive in just a few hours. It is terrible.
However, what gave Okamura Neiji some peace of mind was that although Li Guoyao's troops mobilized frequently, they were constantly shrinking their forces in areas close to the defense zones of both sides. It seemed that they had no intention of attacking the North China Front.
Seeing that Li Guoyao¡¯s troops had no plans to attack the North China Front, Okamura Neiji actively requested more troops from home, and at the same time convened his senior generals to discuss a new battle plan.
Soon, Peiping worked out how to deal with Li Guoyao's troops.
According to the plan of the North China Front Army, on the one hand, they will implement a more stringent mopping up plan in the occupied areas, including Hebei, Shandong, Shanxi, and part of Henan. They will use large corps to carry out large-scale sieges on the Chinese army in these areas, focusing on Lu South and South Hebei.
At the same time, we must adopt a policy of "cannibalization" and blockade of the anti-Japanese base areas in the defense zone, that is, through barbaric means such as digging ditches, building walls, opening rivers, building roads, building bunkers, and creating no-man's land, in an attempt to cut off the base areas from enemy occupation. The connection between areas, base areas and base areas, base areas and plains.
Okamura has his own theory on "cannibalization" operations. He is a China expert and is very familiar with China's human geography. He believes that in ancient times, Chinese rulers used city walls to surround the people as a protective measure against enemy invasion. It has a positive meaning.
Although the construction of the Great Wall is a waste of time and money, for the current North China Front Army, it is not a waste of money.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡
At this time when the Chinese resistance forces are fighting for the people, surrounding the people under the protection of the Imperial Japanese Army with such a separation line and drawing boundaries for protection will not only ensure the stability of the residents, but also help to encourage the people to move closer to the Japanese army. Effective.
Building appropriate isolation trenches or small forts at the junction of quasi-security areas and un-security areas is also an effective way to prevent the invasion of Chinese troops, so Okamura Ningbo widely adopted this method in Japanese-occupied areas.
