At the end of the plus change, since the hussar has not returned, it will continue to be a daily update for the time being, please forgive me Above, the pot is sent on behalf of the pot Compared with Qi Baiming's second motorized infantry division, Liang Chao's third infantry division defended the south of the city is the real big move, with the help of more than 5,000 volunteer laborers of the mountain infantry brigade, Liang Chao almost demolished the city wall in the south of the city, and all the solid bricks and stones were used by him to strengthen the fortifications.
Unlike Qi Baiming and Liang Chao, Chang Tianfang's First Mechanized Division chose to dig fiercely and arranged a regular ring fortification, Chang Tianfang used the remaining two tank companies in his hands to deploy a semi-arc mobile fire blockade line composed of tanks, while the mechanized cavalry and armored vehicles were deployed in the second line, which could block the trench position on the first line with firepower, and the artillery battalion directly under the division was located in the center of the circular position.
Looking at the soldiers who were camouflage the tanks whose hulls were half exposed to the ground, Chang Tianfang looked around, at this moment, the three divisions and two brigades under the First Mechanized Army were all gathered around this small city, and the division mechanized infantry commander He Jinghua found Chang Tianfang, when He Jinghua expressed his worries, Chang Tianfang looked at He Jinghua and was stunned for a long time "The Japanese dared to move the 1st Mechanized Army, which was on the defensive, and this is the funniest joke I've ever heard this year."
Since He Jinghua is senior, Chang Tianfang swallowed back the words that he almost blurted out.
After hesitating for a moment, Chang Tian Fang saw He Jinghua's serious expression, so he had to say: "The stakes are very high, I'm afraid I can only go to the military seat."
He Jinghua did not blame Chang Tianfang, after all, the current First Mechanized Army can be described as an arrogant and fierce general, and the idea of the Japanese being bold enough to attack the First Mechanized Army in a defensive state is indeed a bit appalling.
As the deputy commander of the First Mechanized Division, He Jinghua, the commander of the mechanized infantry, found Song Yuhang.
He Jinghua directly and calmly worried: "Military seat."
Although the artillery fire of our army was very fierce before, it was far from the point of letting the Japanese army abandon Longling, and the Japanese army retreated from Longling was about 3,000 people, and there was about a wing of chariots, and the Japanese army used the ruins to build a complete defense system in the city, and it was not yet after a fierce battle to give up the vital Longling City so easily, which must have been deceitful."
Song Yuhang was stunned for a moment, He Jinghua's worries were indeed a bit unbelievable in his opinion, the three divisions and two brigades under the First Mechanized Army and the troops directly under the army, the whole army totaled more than 59,000 people.
Moreover, the firepower equipment far exceeded that of the Japanese army, and with the support of the Allied air force, the Japanese army had to move its own ideas at least twice as much, that is to say, the Japanese army had to concentrate at least 120,000 to 150,000 and strengthen the ground forces behind the heavy artillery and chariots before it was possible to encircle and annihilate its first mechanized army, otherwise the Japanese army could only add bricks and tiles to Song Yuhang's war exploits in vain.
He Jinghua saw that Song Yuhang was a little disapproving, so he had to remind: "Military seat, the commander of the Japanese Burma Front, Hebian Zhengsan, is narrow-minded, and belongs to the person who has revenge.
This time, our army is in a very delicate position, it seems that the whole army is gathered together and is very stable, but it is also a taboo for the soldiers, there is no reinforcement outside the city to defend the city, our army is a mechanized and motorized mixed troops, and the weapons are all American-made equipment.
The firepower is very strong, but the consumption is very huge, the stubborn defense of the place makes our army lose the advantage of mobility, passive defense consumption is the next policy, once the war unfolds, our army is pinned down by the Japanese army in Longling, if the reinforcements are delayed, how long can they last only by airdrop supplies According to the character of the riverside Zhengsan, he should not easily let go of such a great opportunity. ” Song Yuhang looked at the combat map. looked at He Jinghua again.
He Jinghua can be said to have said that he got to the point.
Song Yuhang knew that the local reinforcements had always been Hong Kong police officers.
Always the last to come out.
Years ago, the 57th Division fought to the death.
After the elite 1st Army and the 74th Army were broken by the Japanese army.
Reinforcements from all walks of life are not waiting and seeing.
It's just that the momentum is huge and ineffective.
In the end, he desperately advanced lightly and quickly to break through the Japanese defense line of the Yuanjiang River.
It was only after the annihilation of the remaining troops of the 3rd Division of the Japanese Army that the siege of Changde was relieved.
"If the First Mechanized Army is blocked by the Japanese army in Longling.
Whoever will reinforce himself is in a bad situation.
It seems that Longling, which seems to be extremely beneficial to his side, may become the Jedi of the first mechanized army in his own land.
The geography of western Yunnan is very complex.
Tengchong, Longling, and the large and small pine mountains are all blocked by the trending mountain range.
It is really a front-line through-line operation.
It is easy for the Japanese army to use geography to implement terrain blockade.
At this moment, beads of sweat broke out on Song Yuhang's forehead.
He knew it was a game of dead or alive.
In order to annihilate the tactical goal of the 1st Mechanized Army.
It is obviously unlikely that the Japanese army will abandon its strategic objectives in the direction of Imphal.
But if the Japanese army is attracted with one of them.
Wait for the dust to settle in the direction of Imphal in the counterattack.
Persuading Governor Wei Lihuang or the Supreme Military Council to abandon the strategy of holding on to the Longling Land, Song Yuhang estimated that the possibility was almost remote.
It is very likely that the plan of occupying Longling to cut off the retreat of the Japanese Second Division was made by Chairman Chiang.
After all, the Japanese siege of Longling was just a guess.
For the sake of possible speculation, he abandoned the strategic points he had already occupied, causing the Japanese Second Division to jump out of the encirclement that had already been set up, and I was afraid that Chairman Chiang, who had been supporting himself all the time in Chongqing, was the first and would not let himself go.
Through several contacts with Chiang himself.
Song Yuhang knew that although Chiang Kai-shek loved talent very much.
Likes cronyism.
But on key issues, it can be described as a killing decision.
The duel will not be arbitrarily appeased.

If you fight for the general, you will succeed and become benevolent.
Chiang will never spare honor and all places.
If you panic for the generals.
Lost a teacher and humiliated the country.
That Jiang was much happier than Zhuge Liang when he picked up Ma Tan.
The most helpless thing in life is to know that there is no action.
But I want to do it, though.
But Song Yuhang still held on to a glimmer of hope to call Wei Lihuang and Chiang Kai-shek respectively.
Illustratively worried. and let the division of troops to pursue the Japanese army, and the 54th Army's Heavenly Department quickly returned to Longling.
Ensure the safety of Longling and Tengchong.
Soon, the headquarters of the commander of the expeditionary force and the Chongqing side called Song Yuhang back.
Wei Lihuang's tone was quite mild. just persuaded Song Yuhang not to worry too much. and informed him that Song Xilian had urgently transferred the 1st Division of the Eighth Army and the 36th Division.
It was planned to carry out a counteroffensive against the 2nd Division of the Japanese Army.
The First Mechanized Army must hold the Longling Fortress.
Blocking the enemy's reinforcements and cutting off the enemy's retreat.
After the annihilation of the second division of the Japanese army, the merit will be rewarded.
However, Jiang's reply tone was mixed with a lot of dissatisfaction, and the occasional reprimand was also very harsh, asking Song Yuhang to uphold the spirit of Whampoa and the blood and steel intestines of Chinese soldiers.
Not afraid, not frightened, not afraid Chiang Kai-shek, who was in the Huangshan Mansion in Chongqing, had been snorting angrily after replying to Song Yuhang's telegram, pacing back and forth in the study, and muttering to himself: "How can An Yi fight more and more courageously, but he is getting smaller and smaller, where is he stubbornly defending the same ancient times, where is the courage in the bloody battle in Kunming, have you fed the dogs, there is no strong man, hungry for Japanese meat, laughing and talking about the pride of thirsty for drinking the blood of Kou's head, is he Song Yuhang still Song Yuhang?"
Chiang Kai-shek was really furious, and the reason for this was because he hated iron and could not become steel, and the main reason was that Song Yuhang questioned the decision of the Supreme Military Council and violated the supreme principle that soldiers should regard obedience as their duty.
Song Meiling handed over a cup of fragrant coffee in a timely manner, and then said: "An Yi, this child is not necessarily afraid.
The troops he commands are your heart and soul treasures, provided by the US allies, the only heavy mechanized troops in the country and even in Asia, the first mechanized army is the elite of the elite, representing the morale of the Chinese army, can he not be careful?"
Soong Meiling's reassurance and relief soon calmed Chiang Kai-shek's anger.
After careful recollection, Chiang Kai-shek was also a little embarrassed and said: "That's true, An Yi, this kid sacrificed his life for the country to fight on the battlefield, compared to the country and I, Jiang, owe him." ” According to the "Killing Tiger" operation plan formulated by the Operational Staff Headquarters, the Japanese army needed to mobilize considerable forces to carry out tactical blockade against the 1st Mechanized Army held in Longling, block the Chinese reinforcements from the Tengchong direction, and then continue to exert pressure on the Chinese 11th Group Army from the direction of Xiaosongshan.
The bow has been opened.
The arrow was on the string.
However, when faced with the last questioning place of the staff headquarters of the base camp, Kawabe Zhengsanque hesitated.
In order to achieve tactical goals and thus affect the realization of strategic goals, Kawabe's Shozo hesitated, and the most important thing was that Kawabe's Shozo was seriously unconfident in whether he could eat the squadron's 1st Mechanized Army.
Winter of '42.
The bloody battle in Kunming made him feel a sense of fear for the army commanded by Song Yuhang.
Finally, after repeated studies by the Japanese base camp and the staff headquarters, the battle in the Imphal direction has entered a stalemate, and the 54th Division and the 5th Division have made a breakthrough in the direction of Kohima, which can be said to have achieved the goals set at the beginning of the campaign, and the first mechanized army of the squadron has become a big problem for the imperial team, and the defeat of its first mechanized army can not only greatly boost the morale of the imperial team, but also seriously weaken the morale of the squadron, reverse the situation of the Yunnan-Burma war, and rescue the main force of the second division surrounded and blocked by the squadron.
In order to divide and defeat the 20th Group Army and the 11th Group under the Chinese Expedition, if the elite of the Central Army in Chongqing can be annihilated in Yunnan and Burma, it is believed that it will create an opportunity for the final settlement of the Chinese incident.
The Japanese base camp finally made up its mind for Kawabe Shozo and ate the 1st Mechanized Army on the Chongqing side that was holding Longling at all costs and intended to block the retreat of the 2nd Division.
Song Yuhang, who was standing on the ruined wall of Longling and watching around, had already sniffed out the abnormality from the performance of the Japanese army in recent days, and the Japanese Second Division, which had attacked the 11th Group Army, did not stop attacking Song Xilian's troops, and only the 56th Division of the Japanese Army, which cooperated with the Second Division, made an attack posture in the direction of Longling.
"What do the Japanese want to do" Through the information transmitted by the Allies and the Expeditionary Force, Song Yuhang realized that the intention of the Japanese was likely to be to defend Longling.
However, the fact that the Japanese dared to attack the First Mechanized Army and defended the base was not so much that Song Yuhang did not want to believe it, but rather that Song Yuhang had absolute confidence in his own troops, and only his First Mechanized Army had the share of fighting Little Japan, and Little Japan still dared to fight its own troops.
