Heroes of the War of Resistance

"In this way, there will definitely be problems with the supplies of the little devil's combat troops on the front line! General, do you want to start a counterattack?"

"Don't worry! The Japanese army didn't move, so we must remember not to act rashly. Although the little devils are fierce in attack, they also have corresponding counter-attack measures. If you don't do anything, you must hurt these little devils.

Order the assembled reserve troops to enter the state of readiness for battle, and at the same time order the reconnaissance troops on the front line to pay close attention to the movements of the Japanese army.Once you find that the little devil has withdrawn his troops, report the situation immediately. "

"Yes, General!"

When Ningji Okamura and Xue Yue made corresponding deployments, Hu Biao successively distributed a batch of weapons and equipment seized from the Japanese army to the officers and soldiers of the prisoner-of-war camp who had been temporarily reorganized into multiple companies, so that they could somewhat defend themselves ability.

The materials and weapons seized in the city were also quickly transferred under Hu Biao's order.With the help of many cars that drove into the city earlier, the speed of transferring these spoils into the mountain was naturally not slow at all.

These captured spoils will be stored in the transfer station established earlier.When the next batch of personnel arrives, the left-behind officers and soldiers at the transfer station don't have to worry about lack of supplies.As for the combat troops, Hu Biao also planned to withdraw from Linxiang City collectively before dawn!

Text Chapter 43 This is a conspiracy

It is undoubtedly relatively difficult to transfer a large number of personnel and materials overnight.Fortunately, before attacking Linxiang, Hu Biao had already made corresponding plans in advance, and the evacuation of personnel and materials went smoothly.

In order to buy more transfer time for the main force and confuse the reinforcements of the Japanese army, Hu Biao dispatched a company of scouts from each assault battalion to form several raiding squads to continue to control the main roads entering and leaving Linxiang City.

Even in Linxiang City, which was almost evacuated, Hu Biao also arranged for an assault battalion to be stationed there.In Hu Biao's opinion, it would take at least a day for the little devil to come to Fragrant City.This time difference can be fully utilized.

A large number of prisoners of war rescued were also resettled into the mountain one after another along with the transferred materials.In the mountains outside Linxiang City, Hu Biao also established several temporary resettlement sites.It is naturally no problem to store supplies and house prisoners of war.

Secondly, in order to reduce the pressure facing Linxiang City, Hu Biao also arranged corresponding alert raid forces in several counties near Linxiang City.The counties that suffered heavy losses last night were all targeted by the harassment forces.

Looking at the troops blocking the outside of the city to harass in broad daylight, the Japanese garrison troops stationed in these counties also felt extremely nervous and helpless.While asking for reinforcements, he also defended the city, not daring to go out of the city to fight.

Although the Japanese army sent a reconnaissance plane early in the morning to carry out high-altitude reconnaissance around Linxiang City, they still failed to find the lurking raiding troops.As for the main force led by Hu Biao, it has already begun to transfer in batches according to the scheduled plan.

When the Japanese warplanes flew over Linxiang City, they could vaguely see the troops stationed in the city.What made the Japanese pilots a little speechless was that the troops in charge of defending the city seemed to be very "cowardly", and quickly hid when they saw the plane appearing.

As a result, it is obvious that many Japanese pilots who wanted to find opportunities to demonstrate their flying shooting skills failed to find too many opportunities to shoot.Before flying away from Linxiang City, he could only vent his anger and shoot a few houses.

As for how many troops are stationed in Linxiang City at this moment, the pilot in charge of reconnaissance cannot judge.The reason is that the entire Linxiang City looks very quiet.When the plane first appeared, the people and defenders in the whole city hid.

Unless the little devil's pilot has clairvoyant eyes, it is impossible to judge how many people and troops are hidden in those dense houses.The only thing that is certain is that there are troops stationed in the city.

After receiving the reconnaissance report from Army Aviation, Neiji Okamura, who hadn't rested all night, said with red eyes: "Gah! Our opponent is very cunning and good at using terrain. In Linxiang City, I'm afraid the troops will not many!"

"Your Excellency, Commander, will the Chinese Army abandon Linxiang City?"

"Very likely! Although the location of Linxiang City is very important, the surrounding area is occupied by us. If they can't escape in time, they will fall into our encirclement. No commander would do such a stupid thing.

In the help telegram received earlier, the answer has actually been given.The commander of the Chinese army, taking advantage of the shortage of troops in the surrounding city defenses, sent a small number of troops to besiege, preventing our city defense troops from leaving the city.

This means that the Chinese army can jump out of our encirclement at any time while we are not paying attention.In view of this situation, the Army Aviation continued to send reconnaissance planes to closely monitor the traffic arteries around Linxiang and track the whereabouts of the main force of the Chinese army.

Secondly, order the infantry regiment returning to the reinforcements to speed up and rush to the reinforcements, and must block or bite the Chinese army.I would rather give up some unimportant occupied areas, but I must annihilate this intruding Chinese army! "

"Hi!"

Realizing that such a force with strong strength and secretive combat methods might destabilize the rear, Okamura Ningji really paid attention to it.But he seems to have forgotten, how can his opponent Xue Yue be easy to provoke?

Knowing that the Japanese army dispatched a regiment stationed in Yueyang for reinforcements, Xue Yue ordered decisively: "Deploy the troops of two divisions and move towards Yueyang immediately. Try to launch an attack on Yueyang City before midnight tonight!"

"Yes, General!"

Accompanying

The Japanese army invaded Hunan Province, and Dongting Lake near Yueyang was also controlled by the little devils.The other side of Kehu Lake is still controlled by the troops of the Ninth War Zone.The troops of the two sides basically faced each other across the lake and clashed fiercely from time to time.

The one closest to Linxiang and with a large number of troops stationed there is naturally the one near Yueyang.Deploying an infantry regiment did not seem to weaken the Japanese army much.But for Xue Yue, he saw an opportunity to counteract.

If they could seize the opportunity to recover Yue Yang, they would tear a hole in the Japanese flank, and the Japanese troops at the front line would be attacked by the main force of the Ninth War Zone at any time.Exposure of the flanks is undoubtedly extremely fatal.

When Xue Yue issued a counterattack against Yueyang City, he did not forget to send Hu Biao a confidential telegram.In the secret telegram, Xue Yue hoped that Hu Biao could contain as many little devils as possible in the Linxiang City area.

Facing the telegram sent by Xue Yue, Hu Biao, who was resting in the dense forest, thought for a while and said: "Call General Xue back, our troops are relatively short, and we can hold back the Japanese troops for two to three days at most. Move towards Yue Yang!"

As soon as this remark came out, Xu Sandao said in surprise: "Langtou, moving towards Yue Yang, didn't he just bump into the little devil who came back for help? If the troops from the ninth theater can't catch up, we are afraid that we will be killed by the little devil." The devil is making dumplings!"

As a result, Hu Biao smiled slightly and said: "San Dao, don't forget, there are quite a few troops available for us to command in Linxiang. The defeated army that was previously recruited, plus the prisoners of war rescued last night, there are nearly 3000 people. ?”

"Langtou means that the troops moving in the direction of Yue Yang should let these people go?"

"That's right! Since these people don't want to leave with us, but still want to go back to the ninth war zone, then send an assault battalion to lead these recruited troops to move towards Yue Yang and make a move to break out in the direction of Yue Yang.

Not surprisingly, there should be quite a few offensive troops sent to Yue Yang by the Ninth War Zone.We put on the posture of attacking Yue Yang from both sides, I believe the little devil will not doubt it.When the two armies converged, the assault battalion quickly withdrew to Linxiang and hid.

All the valleys where the prisoners of war and the defeated army had stayed in before were all abandoned, and the supplies and weapons dàn yào stored there were all transferred to the real camp.Wait for the wind to pass, and the assault battalion will continue to stay in the camp and wait for an opportunity! "

"Yes! Wolf head!"

After listening to Hu Biao's arrangement, Xu Sandao quickly understood Hu Biao's combat thinking.Using the rescued prisoners of war and the incorporated defeated soldiers as bait to confuse the Japanese army's sight and create opportunities for the main force to transfer to southern Hubei.

When the Japanese army focused their attention on the Yueyang area, Hu Biao and his elite troops had already entered the territory of southern Hubei.If you can't find a chance to make a move, I believe Hu Biao will lead the troops to continue moving towards northern Jiangxi.

There, the Japanese army also deployed a lot of troops, and the north of Jiangxi was also a combat area where the Japanese army focused on defense.At that time, if we find another opportunity to fight a battle, I believe the Japanese army will be very confused.I don't know why northern Jiangxi will also be targeted.

Hu Biao only temporarily recruited about one battalion of soldiers from the rout and prisoners of war.Compared with the number of people rescued, the proportion is undoubtedly very small.But in fact, there are many officers and soldiers who are willing to go with Hu Biao, but some people Hu Biao doesn't want at all.

In terms of conscription, Hu Biao has always emphasized that it is better to be short than to be indiscriminate.Older veterans are not wanted, nor is Hu Biao, who has only one son left in the family.Unidentified soldiers naturally also fall under the rule of not recruiting.Pick and choose, it's not bad to be able to expand a camp.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to rest during the day, the recruits recruited will be uniformly arranged in the new barracks.Except for a few company deputies, who were recruited officers, the rest of the battalion, company and platoon backbones were all selected from the assault battalion brought in by outstanding backbones.

In this case, even if this is a new barracks, the actual combat effectiveness is not weak.Coupled with the weapon dàn yào that Hu Biao equipped him, even if he encounters little devils on the road, Hu Biao believes that this new barracks will dare to compete with a brigade of little devils.

Xue Yue, who was far away in Star City, was somewhat surprised to receive the telegram from Hu Biao.Judging from the telegram sent back, it seems somewhat contradictory.While emphasizing the shortage of troops, at the same time, it was able to deploy a reinforced regiment for reinforcements.

After thinking for a while, Xue Yue suddenly smiled and said: "

This guy is really cunning!This reinforcement group is probably just a cover-up to confuse the little devils.I'm afraid that the combat troops under his command will sneak away while we are attacking Yue Yang! "

"General, will this affect our offensive plan?"

"No! In fact, I sent him a telegram to hint at our next battle plan. The reinforcement regiment he sent, if I'm not wrong, should be a prisoner of war who was captured by the little devil earlier. our troops.

Having this reinforced regiment to divert attention will also create the illusion of a two-sided attack for the little devils, which is more conducive to our attack.I have to say, this is a conspiracy, even if I know the truth, I still owe him a favor! "

Xue Yue, who said these words, didn't feel that there was anything to be angry about.Even if some subordinates bluntly said that he is the acting commander of the ninth theater and has the authority to command all combat troops in the area.Then Hu Biao's subordinates are also under the jurisdiction.

But Xue Yue also said very directly: "He doesn't even listen to the commissioner's orders, do you think he will listen to me? The troops he recruited didn't get a dime from the government at all. Do you think I'm just a paper order?" , can really mobilize his troops?"

Nominally, Hu Biao is a major general appointed by the Kuomintang government, and the troops under his command are also considered to be the establishment of the Communist Party.But in fact, many people know that Hu Biao is a lone ranger at all, not relying on zhèng fǔ, but relying on combat capture to maintain the development of the army.

Even so, the military command is still unable to investigate how many troops Hu Biao has developed.Some people say that there should be a division of troops, others say that there should be a corps.How many there are, perhaps only Hu Biao himself knows!
