Chapter 583 Central Plains 1


"This is what I will talk about later.

The commander previously instructed the headquarters to form the Northwest 1st Armored Division, which has now been fully equipped.

At present, after several years of basic warfare, our Northwest Army has gradually grown in size.

It now has more than 2,000 aircraft of various types. , including more than 900 fighter planes, more than 1,100 bombers, nearly 100 ground attack aircraft Huomao 1 and 2, and more than 870 tanks and assault guns of various types.

The field regiment had nearly 1,000 troops last year.

The number of troops in the 5th Group Army in the Suiyuan Theater has been gradually increased to nearly 150,000, which has increased from 800,000 to over 930,000 in the Shanxi Theater and the Xinjiang and Northwest Headquarters.

Currently, the Northwest already has air and land forces.

The main force is about 1.8 million people.

There are nearly 450,000 Japanese troops in the Central Plains Theater, including the remaining Japanese troops in Shanxi, Suiyuan, and North China.

The number of Japanese troops in the northwest has exceeded 760,000. " "Since 1937, the Republic of China has experienced strategic defense and the current strategic stalemate.

As the resources developed in the northwest continue to increase, military strength has steadily expanded.

After the strategic stalemate, the Republic of China is about to enter the stage of strategic counterattack.

This time everyone will It is called together.

While everyone is adhering to the current war situation, each group army headquarters must formulate corresponding counterattack plans.

Although the general staff has some preliminary plans, the combat troops can come up with more reasonable plans through brainstorming.

It’s not impossible.”

Jiang Li sat at the top and looked at the two rows of people at the conference table in front of him and smiled.

"My jars of good wine have been stored in the kiln for several years.

If we really win this national war, a good wine will be indispensable.

It turns out that all of you here are still here, and there are no missing arms or legs.

You guys If I have some spare time, I can write an autobiography myself or ask someone to write it for me.

My grandchildren will have more reference materials when they study history in the future.”

"At the beginning, we had only a few hundred aircraft and less than 200 heavy artillery in total.

The Northwest Army was not yet united.

We have been fighting for several years.

We have retreated from Peiping to the Central Plains, and now we are firmly entrenched in the Zhengzhou defensive circle.

Now our military strength is comparable.

It was more than twice as large as before.

The Central Army had already reached several million soldiers in southern Hunan and Guangxi and Guizhou.

The Central Army has become weaker and weaker as it fights, but our Northwest Army is getting stronger and stronger, and the pace of military expansion has gradually accelerated.

In fact, the pressure of the Japanese army on our Northwest Army has never been lower than that of the Central Army.

This was the case in the past. , now, and even more so in the future."

When saying this, Yang Hucheng looked directly at Jiang Li.

"As long as everyone knows these words, no one can say for sure what will happen in the future.

However, one thing remains unchanged throughout the ages, both at home and abroad.

Strength is the last word.

There is not enough Foreigners still have to make irresponsible remarks.

With strength, they can naturally have the final say.

In this situation, Northwest has not yet reached the point where it can have the final say, so it is still too early to discuss this. " Although Jiang Li's words were ambiguous, the people present had been with Jiang Li for so long and had some understanding of Jiang Li's character.

On the one hand, the decision on the North-South issue also required several big shots in Lanzhou to decide together.

After all, it is not entirely the military that has the final say.

On the other hand, due to the expansion of military power in the northwest, some people present inevitably developed some arrogance.

Wow wow A large group of black crows in the sky made a croaking cry and flapped their wings as they hovered over Yanjin.

The hoarse voice made people feel chilly in their hearts.

Since the Japanese invaded the Republic of China, tens of thousands of corpses have been produced, causing the crow population to expand rapidly with corpses everywhere.

In the tragic battle in the Central Plains, both sides dropped too many corpses in the war zone.

From time to time, the undulating sandy hills are scattered with one or two corpses that both sides have not had time to collect, broken steel guns, rusty bayonets, downed trees after being baptized by shells, and bumpy ground.

After being washed by the rain, and then evaporated by the sun, there was water vapor and a smell of blood all around.

If it weren't for the newly added corpses of the Northwest Army on the ground, no one would have thought that there would be combat soldiers from both sides in such a desolate place.

However, the guy who had been lying on the ground and looked like a corpse, wearing a Japanese military uniform with a straw stuck in his head, now lay on the ground like a turtle and began to move slowly backwards.

However, unlike previous Japanese soldiers, Yasuda's rifle was tied with linen, with only a black muzzle exposed.

Judging from the shape of the gun, it was still the Japanese standard 38 cap.

Except for the linen wrapped around the rifle, the scope on it is obviously different from the rifles of other ordinary Japanese soldiers.

As Yasuda crawled quickly, a few drops of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

He didn't expect to ambush a few northwest troops here.

He didn't expect that a few hours later, he would attract such a difficult opponent.

Yasuda has felt the presence of the enemy for several hours.

As a sniper, sometimes the battle is a battle of patience and perseverance.

As time passed by, both sides were searching for suspicious locations on the battlefield.

It's just that Yasuda has been guarding for several hours and still can't find any trace of the other party, but it is a fact that his companion fell bloody on the battlefield.

At the same time, Yasuda, as a soldier who has lived on the battlefield for many years, also has a certain perception of danger.

He could feel himself getting closer to danger.

A large number of low-level officers and non-commissioned officers in the grassroots units were killed in combat, or soldiers on patrol were ambushed during field reconnaissance, after suffering enough losses from the Northwest Army's snipers.

The Japanese army found that to deal with the snipers of the Northwest Army, if there were too few people to go up, it would mean death.

Having too many people is a complete waste, and the losses incurred are still not worth it.

After learning from the painful experience, the Japanese army also began to train its own snipers.

The original shooting training of Japanese soldiers was very strict, and many soldiers in the combat troops had very good basic skills.

In addition, the Japanese army's requirements for snipers did not emphasize intelligence collection, but placed special emphasis on the sniper's concealment and shooting capabilities on the battlefield.

Among the relatively large combat forces, the Japanese army quickly invested a considerable number of snipers on the battlefield.

And Yasuda is one of them.

"Bang" Amidst the harsh gunshots, Yasuda's body gradually retreated and stopped moving.

A stream of blood flowed from his black hair to his face.

"You damn rookie, you're a little too young to fight with me."

Fu Changsheng made a cold sound.

On the butt of Fu Changsheng's gun, there were already two circles and a small square.

The round sniper is the watershed of elite snipers among Northwest snipers.

Having a round sniper means that one hundred Japanese soldiers have been killed.

The two circles are one of the few aces among the snipers of the Northwest Army.

Compared with the Japanese army's temporary development of snipers.

When the Northwest Army was still a branch of the Northeast Army, Jiang Li began to select people with outstanding marksmanship to form a special unit.

These people played a significant role in the defense of Fengtian.

Later, after settling in the northwest, he immediately started to form a large-scale sniper unit and established a specialized sniper school.

From the Songhu Battle, the Great Wall War of Resistance, and hundreds of thousands of bandit suppression wars of various sizes in the northwest inland, the northwest sniper force can be said to have experienced repeated tempering in the war for nearly ten years.

Both in terms of scale and sniper and counter-sniper tactics honed through countless wars.

The foundation accumulated in the past ten years cannot be caught up by the Japanese army, which has only developed its sniper force for a year or two at this time.

And now Yasuda is the fifth Japanese sniper to fall into Fu Changsheng's hands.

However, in such a battle, Fu Changsheng could also feel that the Japanese snipers were growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At least the ordinary infantrymen of the Northwest Army suffered a lot of casualties under the attack of these ghosts of death.

Five kilometers northwest of Fu Changsheng, on a battlefield with undulating terrain, three machine gunners of the Northwest Army had been killed by Japanese snipers one after another.

He was lying limply beside him.

The Hydra general-purpose machine gun mounted on a stand stood there alone. boom The Japanese army, which almost hated the Viper universal machine gun, immediately brought a combat anti-cannon over after the machine gun fire stopped.

Perhaps it was the hatred for the Fire Snake that made the Japanese gunners act like gods, and blew up the Fire Snake machine gun into countless pieces with one shot.

"Sakazai" After several charging Japanese soldiers saw this abominable machine gun being killed, they cheered for a while and wanted to attack the northwest army on the opposite side.

But he was soon knocked to the ground by several sudden sounds.

Although the Northwest's Fire Snake universal machine gun has surpassed the Czech imitation in terms of output at this time.

And the proportion of machine guns in the army is gradually increasing, but after all, the imitation Czech type in the northwest has been produced for so many years, and the base number in the army is still much higher than that of the Fire Snake.

In this unit, although the Fire Snake was killed, the imitation Czech type with a high amount of equipment was also a life-threatening talisman for the Japanese army.

Tom Tom Two mortar shells landed near the Japanese combat artillery, and the shrapnel from the explosion made a sharp impact when it hit the protective shield of the combat artillery.

The airtight shrapnel did not penetrate the thick protective shield, and the artillery survived, but several Japanese soldiers nearby fell to the ground.

As early as the beginning of the war, the combat artillery of the Northwest Army and the Japanese Army did not have protective shields.

But now, because this kind of combat artillery without shields has to reach the front line, under the firepower of both sides, the artillery Often there were heavy casualties.

In the end, ordinary infantry had to be relied on to operate this kind of battle defense artillery that had lost its master.

Naturally, the hit rate was greatly reduced.

Don't underestimate the two steel plates next to the combat artillery.

Although they were covered with bullet marks, they successfully allowed the Japanese artillery to survive the raging shrapnel.

"Kill all the Chinese troops" The enemy and our troops fighting around this area are almost the same.

Several Japanese soldiers died under machine guns, but nearly two other squadrons of Japanese soldiers went around to the bamboo forest on the hills not far away, hoping to use the cover of the bamboo forest to shoot at the Northwest Army within sight.

But soon they ran into the Northwest Army who also entered the bamboo forest.

"Chi" sounded again, a sound that terrified the Japanese army.

"Lie" was too late, the word "down" hadn't been uttered yet.

The team leader felt with difficulty and pain that his body had been sawed by something, just like the bamboos of varying thicknesses in front of him, which seemed to have been sawed by something, falling down one after another.

The Northwest Army actually has a Fire Snake universal machine gun here.

Even the extremely vigilant Japanese soldiers were knocked over by machine guns more than a dozen times.

The speed of the machine guns was so fast that sometimes people had no time to react.

In fact, the war has started till now.

After a period of extremely arduous fighting, the Northwest Army has made a lot of sacrifices and inflicted a lot of casualties on the Japanese army.

It has abandoned the defense of eastern Henan, a large area of ​​southern Henan, and a part of northern Henan has also fallen to the Japanese army.

In his hands, the Central Plains Field Corps with more than 900,000 troops was responsible for only more than half of Henan Province.

Both the military strength and the concentration of technical arms have reached a certain level.

The soldiers' combat experience has been gained over the past few years.

Even if the Japanese army is well-trained and strict after experiencing a large number of casualties, once they no longer have the fear of the Japanese army in their hearts, it will become more and more difficult for the Japanese army to fight in many cases.

The current situation, in which two battalions of the Northwest Army faced a Japanese brigade and attacked, was rare in the past.

However, even in this situation, the Japanese army still did not gain much. of cheap.

In fact, since the Northwest Army's imitation Czech-type equipment in the army has increased, especially in the service of the Fire Snake general-purpose machine gun, and because the production of the Fire Snake has exceeded the Czech type.

The proportion of equipment in the army is also increasing.

In the absence of heavy fire cover, the Japanese army actually lagged behind the Northwest Army in terms of machine rifle firepower, and there was even a certain gap.

The imitation Czech type of the Northwest Army has better performance than the crooked handle used by the Japanese army as the main force now.

The firepower output of the Feng 918 and the Fire Snake universal machine guns is better than that of the 38-type heavy machine guns equipped by the Japanese army.

The firepower is twice as high, or even more.

Compared with the Japanese army, perhaps the relative weakness of the Northwest Army is that ammunition is consumed too quickly, which puts greater pressure on logistics.

However, as the combat area has shrunk, the Northwest Army has built main lines and branch lines of railways leading to the war zone, as well as a large number of military trucks, and mules and horses have made up for this shortcoming.

In terms of logistics, it is not particularly difficult for the Japanese army to advance into the field corps and threaten the logistics of the Northwest Army.

The Japanese army did not dare to make such a bold move.

The Northwest Army was not the National Central Army.

One or two divisions fell into the encirclement of the field corps.

The Japanese army did not dare to take this risk.

With the development of the war in recent years, it is difficult to believe that the Japanese army fought in large numbers, but they have to accept the cruel fact that once they no longer have the comparative advantage of heavy firepower, the small-scale infantry tactics they were accustomed to before will not be able to deal with the Northwest Army. , it is already difficult to achieve a targeted effect.

Even more and more often, they start to be suppressed by the other party
