Speaking of the World War II District Chief's Department, Yan Laoxi originally received a telegram from the Jiujiu Army two days ago, but Lao Xi'er has been undecided.
Yan Laoxi was very moved by Li Guoyao's suggestion to attack the Japanese army from the north to the south and recover Taiyuan City. After all, Shanxi was his territory, and Taiyuan, the Splendid Dragon City, was his home base. Being occupied by the Japanese was a last resort. If there was an opportunity to take it back, he wouldn't miss it.
"But Yan Laoxi has never dealt with Li Guoyao, and he doesn't know what he is like, so he doesn't know what he is doing.
He didn¡¯t dare to gamble with Li Guoyao with what little money he had left in his family. In his opinion, Li Guoyao was just barefoot, while he was wearing shoes.
If Li Guoyao loses, he still has a chance to make a comeback, but if he loses, it will be over.
Yan Laoxi is very precious to the Jinsui Army under his command. He will not easily fight his direct troops against the Japanese. In order to maintain independence and integrity, the uniforms of his troops are not the same as those of other troops. Same as the troops.
Anyone who has watched the TV series "Bright Sword" knows that the military uniforms of Shanxi Wang Yan Laoxi's Jinsui Army have always been blue-gray. From beginning to end, the style and color of the Jinsui Army's uniforms are completely different from those of the Eighth Route Army and the Central Army. This also fully reveals the characteristics of warlords who were divided and went their own way during the Republic of China.
As a warlord, Yan Laoxi has almost reached the peak that a warlord can reach.
Since the Taiyuan Uprising was launched in the Revolution of 1911 and he served as the governor of Shanxi at the age of 28, until the dangerous pass, Shanxi King Yan Laoxi's separatist rule of Shanxi lasted for more than thirty years, spanning the entire history of the Republic of China.
The reason why Yan Laoxi was able to create this miracle, in addition to his good management skills, was largely due to his control of the Jinsui Army.
Because, during the period of the Republic of China when having a gun was the most important thing, no matter how good at political struggle you were, no matter how talented you were, if you didn¡¯t have an armed force of your own, you would be in vain. At best, you could only serve as an aide to a warlord. His own fate was simply impossible.
Yan Laoxi went to a military academy and also studied in Japan, so he knew this very well. Therefore, since he became the ruler of Shanxi, Yan Laoxi has attached great importance to the construction of the army, and has always firmly controlled the Shanxi-Sui army.
It can be seen from the map that although Shanxi is surrounded by mountains and rivers and has a dangerous terrain, it is a typical strategic location and is located in North China. It has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times.
After the Revolution of 1911, Yan Laoxi, who served as the governor of Shanxi, was surrounded by powerful warlords. Whether they were the Anhui clique, the Zhili clique or the Fengcian clique, they were all existences that he could not afford to offend but could not defeat.
Therefore, in order to ensure his rule over Shanxi, young Yan Laoxi was cautiously dealing with major warlords and dealing with various Beiyang warlords. At the same time, he also tried his best to move around and seize every opportunity to expand the strength of his army.
Yan Laoxi once took refuge with Duan Qirui of the Anhui clique, and also served as a younger brother under Wu Peifu of the direct clique. After Zhang Zuolin entered the pass, for his own benefit, he did not hesitate to break out the Jin-Feng war with the powerful Feng faction. The purpose of all this is, of course, to protect his power to rule Shanxi.
With the power of the economically underdeveloped Shanxi Province to deal with many warlords, Yan Laoxi deeply realized the importance of the army to the warlords time and time again.
Although this truth has not been clearly summarized, Yan Laoxi may understand better than anyone else what it means to "produce political power from the barrel of a gun."
Therefore, even though he was defeated in the Central Plains War and even though most of Shanxi Province was occupied by the Japanese during the Anti-Japanese War, Yan Laoxi never lost control of the Shanxi-Sui Army. This is why he was able to rise again after defeats.
Therefore, no matter what, he was undecided to make a big gamble with Li Guoyao. After all, compared to the small Taiyuan, the Jinsui Army was his real foundation.
However, following the order from Chongqing, Yan Laoxi was in trouble!
If it were the situation before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Yan Laoxi might not really care about Chongqing's orders. After all, he, the king of Shanxi, was not afraid of Chiang Kai-shek and his Central Army.
Even in order to prevent the Central Army from entering Shanxi, Yan Laoxi once built the railway track into a smaller gauge, so that Shanxi's railway could not be connected to other railways across the country.
But that¡¯s not possible right now. Neither he nor the Jinsui Army are in a very good situation.
First of all, during the Battle of Xinkou in 37 years, his Shanxi-Sui army suffered heavy losses.
That battle was extremely tragic, and the Japanese army continued to attack the Chinese army.Bombs were dumped on the ground. After the bombardment stopped, the Japanese troops charged toward the Chinese army's positions like ants in overwhelming numbers. The two sides launched a fierce hand-to-hand battle, as the two sides strangled together.
During this battle, the Xinkou frontline position changed hands as many as 13 times!
As the battle progressed, the Japanese army not only added more Xuandao detachments, but also launched poison gas bombs frantically at the Chinese army.
Although there are about a hundred regiments and about 150,000 troops assembled on the Xinkou front line, the weapons of the Chinese army are too poor. Taking the 191st Brigade of the 64th Division of the 15th Army as an example, the entire brigade is only equipped with one battalion. New rifles, so-called heavy weapons are just a few mortars and some old-fashioned heavy machine guns. For most soldiers, they think the best weapon is the broadsword in their hands.
They used machetes to fight against the Japanese machine guns and artillery. Although they knew that this was an extremely asymmetrical battle, they still rushed forward without hesitation.
Due to crude weapons, the Chinese army had to pay an extremely heavy price to hold its position, and as a result, it suffered huge casualties of 11 regiments lost in one day!
In the Battle of Xinkou, Yan Laoxi almost spent his money. All the artillery pieces of the Chinese army totaled about two hundred. Although there were many artillery pieces, they had no advantage over the Japanese army. Not only that, the Japanese army occupied Due to air superiority, once the location of Chinese artillery is detected, planes will immediately come over to bomb. Therefore, some artillery may be destroyed by the Japanese before they have time to fire or after just a few rounds.
In this battle, the Chinese army suffered more than 100,000 casualties, and most of the elite Jinsui Army was lost.
After that, after most of Shanxi was occupied by the Japanese invaders, Yan Laoxi, who was very good at planning, once again put his personal interests before the nation. He began to lead the Jinsui Army to passively avoid war. In the next six years, the Jinsui Army hardly launched a large-scale campaign against the Japanese invaders.
Although this was partly due to the fact that Shanxi was occupied and the strength of the Shanxi-Sui army was greatly reduced, it also had a lot to do with Yan Laoxi's passive avoidance of war.
At present, the main defense area of ??the Jinsui Army is no longer in Shanxi, but in eastern Shaanxi, which used to be the territory of the Central Army. In addition, the Jinsui Army now also needs military pay from Chongqing, so he cannot ignore Chongqing like before. A military order was issued.
Yan Laoxi was in a dilemma and his hair was almost gray with worry. If he sent troops this way, he might damage his cautious family foundation. After Fu Yisheng led the 35th Army to break away from the Jinsui Army system, only his direct troops were left. There are tens of thousands of people, but they can't stand the trouble.
"But if they don't send troops, Chongqing will definitely not give up. You must know that the Japanese army is fighting against Chiang Kai-shek's direct troops in central Henan.
"If we don't send troops to the World War II zone, we are refusing to save the direct lineage of Chiang Kai-shek!"
With the character of the Chongqing man who is determined to retaliate, how can he let the Jinsui Army go?
As the son of a businessman and a descendant of Shanxi people who are very good at management, Yan Laoxi fully demonstrated the unique advantages of Shanxi people in being good at management and keeping business. After a little hesitation, he finally decided to follow the good example and immediately sent troops to Linfen, Luliang and other places to attack the entire Shanxi Province. The southwest launched a counterattack.
Soon, 30,000 Jinsui Army troops plus 30,000 Central Army troops completed their assembly and quickly moved towards the scheduled combat area.
At the same time, the Eighth Route Army also received multiple combat orders. First, Chongqing asked the Eighth Route Army to cooperate with the National Army to contain the Japanese troops on the Shanxi battlefield. Then, there was an order from the World War II District Chief, asking the Eighth Route Army to counterattack southeastern Shanxi with the main force.
¡°Also, the headquarters of the Ninth Army also sent a telegram to the Eighth Route Army, hoping that the Eighth Route Army could send troops to the Zhengtai Line to attack the Japanese and puppet military stations and strongholds east of Niangziguan.
Under this circumstance, the Eighth Route Army also responded quickly. The 129th Division and the 120th Division will launch counterattacks in southeastern Shanxi and along the Zhengtai Line, cooperating with other units of the National Army to counterattack Shanxi.
At this point, the Central Army, the Shanxi-Sui Army, the Eighth Route Army and the Ninth Army finally reached a consensus. The counterattack in Shanxi seemed to be a foregone conclusion, and all units took action quickly.
