However, it is said that when Yamada Otozo learned the news of the defeat of the 123rd and 124th Divisions, he was both shocked and angry.Yamada Otozo never dreamed that the Japanese troops of these two divisions would be defeated so quickly, so thoroughly, according to his estimates, even if the Japanese army took away the strength of the three divisions, the main force of the seventh column of the Eighth Route Army in Qiqihar at this time was not able to launch a counteroffensive at all.However, the result of the matter was really beyond the expectations of this old devil, the Eighth Route Army not only launched a counteroffensive, but also successfully defeated the 50,000 Japanese troops on the north road, and nearly 40,000 Japanese main forces were annihilated."
Your Excellency Commander is angry at the defeat of the 123rd and 124th Divisions, it was purely accidental," Yoshimoto Sadachi hurriedly reassured."
Accidents, where are there so many accidents," Yamada Otozo roared angrily.Yoshimoto Sadaichi originally wanted to comfort Yamada Otozo, maybe he used the wrong method, but it completely angered Yamada Otozo, an old devil.When Yoshimoto saw this, he was so frightened that he quickly closed his mouth obediently, not daring to speak anymore."
Hmph" Yamada Otozo couldn't help but snort coldly, although he was angry in his heart, but at this time Yamada Otozo knew very well that the current situation was very unfavorable to the Japanese army, and a little carelessness could lead to a greater defeat.Frowning and hesitating for a moment, Yamada Otozo said with a serious face: "Immediately order the 10th Division and other units to withdraw to Tailai County to garrison, order the 57th Division and Miyamoto Brigade to retreat to the vicinity of Anda County to garrison, and the 123rd Division and the 124th Division are to hold the Nehe River and are not allowed to take a step back." ”"Hai" Yoshimoto Sadachi replied respectfully, and then asked cautiously: "Your Excellency the commander means that the Qiqihar Imperial Army will temporarily take a defensive position. ”"Hmm" Yamada Otozo frowned and nodded: "In addition, does the imperial army have any other choice, now the main force of the Eighth Route Army is in Liaoning, and the offensive is rapid.The imperial army must solve the main force of the Eighth Route Army entering Liaoning as soon as possible, and only after stabilizing the situation in Liaoning can the imperial army turn around and slowly deal with the seventh column of the Eighth Route Army in Qiqihar. ”Yamada's words were filled with deep helplessness."
Your Excellency Commander Hai is wise."
Yoshimoto replied respectfully.Yamada Otozo couldn't help frowning, Yoshimoto Sada's flattering words, at this time Yamada Otozo heard it, it was like a mockery, but at this time, Yamada Otozo didn't bother to bother with him, and after thinking about it, he said: "Qiqihar, just stabilize the current situation for the time being, closely monitor the movements of the seventh column, and prevent it from becoming bigger further."
At present, the main energy of the imperial army should be concentrated on the front line in Liaoning, and it is necessary to urge all supporting troops to rush to the front line in Liaoning as soon as possible to eliminate the main force of the Eighth Route Army that has entered the Liaoning area. ”"Hai" Yoshimoto replied respectfully.Just after a big victory, Li Guotao had a rare good night's sleep, and the next morning, Li Guotao had just come to the command hall of the headquarters, and Ma Zhenguo greeted him, with a trace of excitement on his face.Ma Zhenguo said with a smile: "Commander, I just received a report from the front.The Japanese 10th Division and other units have retreated from the Jiangqiao front line and retreated to Tailai County, while the Japanese 57th Division and Miyamoto Brigade on the Eastern Front have also retreated to the vicinity of Anda County. ”"Oh" Li Guotao raised his eyebrows, walked quickly to the side of the sand table, glanced at the sand table, and then said with a smile: "It seems that Yamada Otozo, this old devil, is quite familiar with each other, the Japanese army on the North Road was defeated by us, this old devil must be worried, we will go back and deal with other Japanese troops."
And now they are unable to support the Qiqihar front, so they can only order the troops to retreat, trying to temporarily stabilize the current situation. ”"Hmm" Ma Zhenguo nodded and said: "It is estimated that the little devil is also scared, and now the little devil's attention is all focused on the Liaoning battlefield, and he will definitely not be able to take care of us for the time being, which is a good opportunity for us." ”Li Guotao smiled and nodded and said: "But we can't just watch, let's follow the original plan, let the main forces of the Jilin Military Region and the Liaoning Military Region do their best to block the Japanese reinforcements, so as to support the battle of the main force of our Eighth Route Army on the frontal battlefield."
In addition, we must also seize the time to make preparations, and after the troops have regained their combat effectiveness, we should launch a new round of offensive as soon as possible, and take advantage of this rare opportunity to expand the Heilongjiang base area as much as possible and expand the strength of our army. ”"As for the construction of the base area, there is no need for the commander to worry about it, and I, the political committee, are fully responsible."
At this time, Political Commissar Lu walked over with a smile and said with a serious face: "The current situation is very good for our army, judging from the current situation, it is no problem for our army to hold the base area of Qiqihar.Moreover, taking advantage of the opportunity of the main force of the Japanese army, we can further stabilize our base area.Moreover, since our army recovered Qiqihar, the people in the vicinity, as well as some independent anti-Japanese armed forces, have flocked to the vicinity of Qiqihar in large numbers, and we can take advantage of this opportunity to further expand the strength of our troops. ”Li Guotao nodded with satisfaction and said: "With the political commissar personally in charge of this matter, I am naturally a hundred relieved."
In fact, what I am most worried about now is the Liaoning battlefield.Although the main force of our army is constantly heading to Liaoning.However, the little devil has been operating in the three eastern provinces for many years, and the strength of the Japanese Kwantung Army is still very strong, and it may not be so easy for our army to recover the entire Northeast in one fell swoop. ”Ma Zhenguo nodded and said: "Although the current situation is favorable to our army, but in terms of overall strength, the enemy is still strong and I am weak.And Jinzhou City, very important, the little devil can not give up easily, if our army wants to attack Jinzhou, it must face a vicious battle, the outcome is unpredictable" Lv Political Commissar smiled and nodded and said: "What you said makes sense, then in your opinion, how to fight this battle in Jinzhou" Li Guotao frowned and thought about it, and then said with a serious face: "Encircle the point to send reinforcements, attack Jinzhou, the outcome is unpredictable, it is better to encircle the points and send reinforcements, gradually consume the strength of the Japanese army, and then launch a full-scale counteroffensive when the time is ripe, In this way, it is more likely to take the Northeast. ”Ma Zhenguo nodded and said, "I agree with the commander's opinion, I think the idea of encircling the point to send reinforcements is good." ”aa2705221:
