On March 12, under the command of Kwantung Army Commander Yamada Otsuzo, about three Japanese divisions attacked from Fengtian and headed straight for the Fuxin and area where the South Manchuria Front Army was stationed.
Li Guoyao was naturally not to be outdone, and immediately ordered Xu Hu's troops to launch a counterattack, and the two sides started a fierce battle in the Fuxin area.
However, because the Japanese army was fully prepared, and Fuxin, Chaoyang and other places were newly conquered territories, Li Guoyao's troops had not been occupied for a long time and had not yet fully established a foothold. Therefore, they were passively beaten at the beginning of the battle. situation.
The most important thing is that in order to deal with Xu Hu's command, the Kwantung Army not only dispatched three divisions of infantry, but also concentrated three brigades with a total of more than 500 tanks and armored vehicles, and also concentrated seven artillery regiments. powerful artillery, including as many as two regiments of large-caliber heavy artillery units alone.
Of course, such a war is indispensable for the Japs¡¯ aviation force. Although their Second Air Force was beaten to a pulp by the Yankees¡¯ strategic bombing force, it could still show off its power against Li Guoyao¡¯s command, which had no combat aircraft fleet.
In addition, the Japanese army has also assembled heavy troops from four divisions on the Fengtian front line. There are also a large number of troops in the Xinjing direction. In addition to the two and a half divisions originally guarding the Jinzhou and Shanhaiguan front lines, the Japanese army is used for this line of operations. There are as many as a dozen divisions of troops.
In fact, the idea of ????the Kwantung Army Headquarters is very simple, that is, first make peace at home and then fight against the outside world. If we can't even suppress the resistance forces within the Puppet Manchukuo territory, how can we talk about defending the entire Northeast?
Moreover, Li Guoyao's troops have become a climate. If they are not completely eliminated or driven out of the Puppet Manchukuo territory, once the Soviets attack, these people will definitely attack the Imperial Japanese Army from both inside and outside. By then, they will be Really passive.
More importantly, Yamada Otsuzo also wanted to use Li Guoyao's force, which was relatively weak, to sharpen the rusty sword of the Kwantung Army. To put it bluntly, he just wanted to use Li Guoyao's force to improve his position. The combat capabilities of the Kwantung Army.
Yamada Otsuzo believes that if the Kwantung Army attacks with all its strength, it should not be a problem to deal with Li Guoyao's troops. After all, Li Guoyao's troops are still far behind the Kwantung Army in terms of military strength and firepower, especially in In terms of heavy firepower, it is even worse.
"But compared to the previous Resistance Alliance or Volunteer Army, the combat effectiveness of Li Guoyao's troops is much stronger. Using such troops as a whetstone, these new troops of the Kwantung Army will inevitably grow rapidly.
As long as all the new recruits under its command transform into real elite warriors, the Kwantung Army will be able to be reborn and gain the capital to compete with the Soviet army in the fire.
And Yamada Otozo is also playing with the time difference. According to the agreement between Japan and the Soviet Union, whether to renew or not, a decision must be made and the other party notified after April.
Moreover, Germany has not yet been completely defeated, let alone surrendered unconditionally, so the Soviet Union will definitely not make a rash decision not to renew the contract under such circumstances. Therefore, they still have at least a month to decide on the relationship between the Soviet Union and Japan. of.
??In other words, before this, they did not need to worry about the Soviets suddenly attacking the Kwantung Army, and this was a rare opportunity for Yamada Otsuzo.
The Japanese army's sudden counterattack caught the Chinese army by surprise. The defense lines that had been pushed towards Fengtian and Jinzhou were broken through by the Japanese army one by one. In just two days, they retreated more than 80 kilometers towards Fuxin, while the Japanese army advanced 80 kilometers forward. , its vanguard troops are already within a range of more than 20 kilometers outside Fuxin City.
Fortunately, Xu Hu is also a veteran with rich combat experience. He has fought hundreds of battles with the Japanese army in the past few years, and has very rich combat experience against Japan.
After realizing that the Japanese army planned to devour the more than 100,000 troops of their South Manchurian Front this time, Xu Hu immediately made a decision and voluntarily abandoned Fuxin City, which had seriously damaged fortifications, and withdrew the main force to the mountainous area southwest of Fuxin. And stabilized the front line at Guanshan and Sanlingshan.
But even so, the situation is still very serious.
Because when the three divisions on the northern front with nearly 60,000 troops were attacking the Guanshan and Sanlingshan front lines, the Japanese 107th Division and the 112th Division in the Jinzhou direction also made a move towards Chaoyang. This was another Thirty thousand troops.
More importantly, the firepower of these Japanese troops is too powerful. There are planes in the sky and tanks and armored vehicles on the ground. Moreover, transportation in South Manchuria is developed, and most cities are connected by railways. Whether the Japanese army is mobilizing troops or materials, it is very difficult. Convenient.
And the nearby airports are also relatively close to the battlefield, and they can travel to and from the battlefield more than ten times a day, which greatly increased the Japanese offensive power.
On the other hand, although Xu Hu's command apparently has a strong strength of 6 divisions, in fact, only the reorganized third division originally commanded by Zhou Dafu, including the other two infantry brigades equipped with Soviet-made equipment, has real combat effectiveness. The total number is no more than 50,000.
The rest of the troops were either new recruits or prisoners who had just been recruited. After several months of training, although they looked a bit like elite soldiers, they were just show-offs. They were still a little worse when they actually went to the battlefield to fight face-to-face with the Japanese army.
¡° Moreover, Chow Tai Fook¡¯s headquarters had been at the forefront of the battle with the Japanese army before, so the headquarters suffered great losses, and the replacements were mainly new recruits. Faced with the aggressive posture of the Japanese army, the pressure on the troops was not small.
In view of the critical situation, Xu Hu immediately explained the situation to Fenghuang Mountain and requested that the Rehe Front Army of Lu Dashan be allowed to reinforce South Manchuria.
Li Guoyao did not hesitate and directly ordered Lu Dashan's troops to immediately reinforce South Manchuria. At the same time, he ordered the troops in South Manchuria to gather to block the Japanese army.
Li Guoyao knew very well that the current Japanese army was trembling at last. Looking at the entire Chinese battlefield, whether it was the North China Front Army or the 11th Army in Central China, most of the elite troops had been lost, and only the Kwantung Army still had the strength to fight.
As long as the tiger's claws of the Kwantung Army are knocked out, the Northeast will be taken over easily.
Moreover, it is already mid-March. According to the development trajectory of history, the little devil is already a grasshopper after autumn. As expected, in five months time, their ambitious emperor will make it public. The edict of surrender was read out.
Originally, Li Guoyao was still thinking about whether to take the initiative or to take the initiative during this period. You must know that taking the initiative means attacking towns where the Japanese army is heavily stationed, and the losses must be considerable.
But if you do nothing, it is not good to wait for the Soviets to come in. With the gangster character of the Soviets, they may not care about them. For the sake of their own selfishness and to make up for the losses caused by the Soviet-German war, They will definitely regain blood by robbing Northeast China.
Therefore, Li Guoyao has been hesitating during this period, but he did not expect that the little devil would take the initiative to attack. That is really great.
Although the Japanese army gained the initiative in the war, it was only limited to southern Manchuria. Under such circumstances, they might be able to reoccupy some cities, such as Fuxin, Chaoyang, Lingyuan, Chengde, etc., but in the process again, the Japanese army You have to bear the price that the attacker has to pay.
Think about it: During the War of Liberation, there was a huge disparity in strength between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. The Kuomintang army had a clear advantage in terms of quantity and equipment, and it had the support of US imperialism. As the victorious government, the Kuomintang took over the city and various production and military facilities from the surrendered Japanese invaders. A large number of weapons and equipment left by the Japanese invaders also returned to the national army.
Under the circumstances at that time, if the Yan'an side clung to its territory and fought a war of attrition against the Nationalist troops who came to "suppress the bandits", it would inevitably cause a large number of troop casualties. The result of the confrontation and attrition was that the remaining effective forces of the Communist Army would be rapidly reduced. As a result, both people and land will be lost, and the established foundation will not be able to hold on.
Therefore, the strategy at that time was mainly to preserve the effective forces, go to the countryside, mobilize the masses, stabilize the rear area, and annihilate the enemy's effective forces in mobile warfare.
Under such circumstances, the People's Liberation Army took the initiative to abandon some cities such as Chengde and Zhangjiakou.
But voluntarily giving up does not mean running away directly, but fighting the national army in every battle, but never fighting to the death, and retreating when you take advantage.
Although the People's Liberation Army finally lost almost all the towns, and even their hometown Yan'an to Hu Zongnan, but so what, the Kuomintang army annihilated an average of 7,000 people for every city it occupied. Less than a year after the war began, the Kuomintang army occupied After understanding more than 100 cities in the liberated areas, 700,000 troops were directly lost.
And every time you occupy a place, you must constantly divide your troops to guard it, which is equivalent to carrying more than 100 baggage. In this way, the strength of the Kuomintang army became more and more dispersed, and fewer and fewer troops were available for attack.
Li Guoyao plans to do the same now. There are more than 40 counties and districts from Nanman to Rehe. Based on the current situation of the Japanese army, they want to recover these places one by one. It doesn't matter. Li Guoyao will have a good fight with them.
