"The original plot was to use the pressure of four of the five gangsters to force the people in the southwest to withdraw their troops.
The battle lasted for several minutes, and only an intellectual named Ma Tiansheng and a clerk named Wang were sacrificed, which could be regarded as helping Li Yunlong deal with a very troublesome hidden danger.
The plot is following what was laid out before. Things in the south will not be described and everything will develop normally. "
Amidst the recriminations, it was mid-February.
Due to Huang He's strong performance and advance layout, coupled with the tacit cooperation of the last man in the Gallic Chicken, it can be said that this time the border area has won.
Not only has understanding and support been gained internationally and domestically, but the troops have also been adjusted to make the command more unified.
All hidden dangers have been eliminated, and the future is promising.
The Japanese also took advantage of this chaos to try to fish in troubled waters and organized a large-scale battle in southern Henan, but the outcome was different from what they imagined.
After eating a rather sumptuous lunch, Huang He and Zhong Lin left the cooking class side by side. After returning to the bureau, they cooperated tacitly. One went to boil water for tea, and the other went to get today's new newspaper.
Generally speaking, one hour after a meal is the rest time for two people.
Developing various new weapons takes a lot of brains, and a combination of work and rest is the long-term solution.
Looking at the southerners shivering from the cold, Huang He first added some coal to the stove, and then put the newspaper in his hand over it. He said with a smirk on his face:
"Old Zhong, your old unit did a pretty good job. It killed more than 9,000 Japs in southern Henan in one go, and was directly defeated by the Central and North China Fronts."
"But in my opinion, your old boss probably failed to intervene in the command, otherwise the fifth theater would never be so organized."
Guo Zuo also expected that the Japanese were trying to fish in troubled waters.
It was just that at first they judged that the enemy would most likely sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers. After all, this was in line with conventional strategic thinking and the Japanese army's consistent military strategy.
But after the book changed its narrator, some changes occurred in terms of strategy.
In Tojo Hideki's view, the North China area north of the Yellow River has always been our occupied area.
Throughout last year, the North China Front Army had been exhausted physically and mentally by the Eighth Route Army. They did not want to see another unit belonging to the border region making waves in North China.
During the days when the two sides were arguing, Tojo was still very happy.
After all, emptiness within the enemy is a good thing, as it will definitely provide the enemy with greater strategic room for maneuver.
But when he thought that his younger brother's country was already deep in the quagmire, the old devil became angry.
After much thought, he decided to take the initiative and seize the opportunity in front of him to break the deadlock. Instead of waiting and watching, taking the opportunity to attack is a better option.
Once the Republic of China's troops can be further weakened, all the troubles will be solved.
In response to the above strategies, the Central China Front Army and the North China Front Army made a direct move.
Trying to take the opportunity to cast a big net to catch a big fish and eat all the hundreds of thousands of elite main force in Guo Preserved Fifth War Zone.
Southern Henan has developed highway transportation and an important strategic position.
In order to make the plan go smoothly, the Japanese dispatched two A-type divisions and one B-type division in one go. They even boarded three precious tank regiments and continued to advance under the cover of Army Aviation.
Although the small days are coming fiercely, it is still essentially the old tactic of encirclement on three sides, and the ending will naturally not be too good.
Ignoring Huang He's daily teasing, Zhong Lin directly took the newspaper. The number of enemies mentioned by the other party aroused his interest. Killing nine thousand enemies in one breath can be considered a great victory.
"It turns out it was De Lin who commanded it. Then it's okay."
"You don't need to pay attention to Bald's airdrop command. You don't know this, right? The way of avoiding the real and attacking the weak is also in line with his fighting style. This battle should be won."
Or it could be said that Zhong Lin is an old comrade who has seen the world. His brief summary hits the point, and in a few words he outlines the general framework of the Southern Henan Campaign.
The fifth theater used a small number of troops to fight head-on, while the main force turned to the wings.
When the three Japanese divisions' offensive forces are dispersed across the entire front, then they can be surrounded and annihilated from both sides and behind.
After talking about Henan, the two talked about the next development direction of the army.
"How is the development of the new 40mm rocket launcher going? In the next stage of battle, frontline soldiers are in great need of an individual anti-armor weapon that is more suitable for the current battlefield."
The penetration depth of the old version 40 fire was too high, which was a bit wasteful when facing the Japanese armored forces.
Considering the range issue, the Border Area Weapons Experimental Research Bureau decided to improve a barrel that is more suitable for the current battlefield.
In fact, Huanghe's requirements for the first subject are somewhat harsh, and the comrades have been struggling for more than a month.
First of all, the propellant must be changed from black powder to double-base powder, and the new version of 40 Fire can be propelled in two stages. After adopting these two technologies, the range of the barrel can exceed 200 meters.
The second step is to develop high-explosive bombs and incendiary bombs, allowing anti-personnel and anti-tank weapons to go hand in hand. Don't show mercy to the Japanese. No matter how cruel you use them, it's not too much.
After hearing Huang He's words, the corners of Zhong Lin's mouth twitched. Although I don’t know where the other party got the advanced information, those things are of great use to the first subject.
According to the conservative estimates of comrades, the border area is no longer inferior to the north in theoretical research on rockets.
"The research and development progress is pretty good, but time is a bit tight."
"I can only guarantee that samples will be available in May this year. As for when the New 40 Fire can be mass-produced, it depends on the production speed of Lao Zeng."
The reason why the Weapons Experimental Research Bureau and the Military Industry Bureau are so anxious is because the border area has recently received several pieces of reliable information.
As we all know, there are many of our agents over there. This results in some news just coming out of the office, and it won't take long for it to be delivered to the boss's desk.
Because of the defeat in January and the resentment towards the first theater for not executing his orders. Baldhead took advantage of Commander Wei's visit to the southwest capital to report on his duties and directly placed him under house arrest.
The person who was replaced was naturally a highly trusted friction expert. Changing generals on the spot gave the First Army an opportunity.
Yoshio Iwamatsu was ready to gather his strength and launch the fourteenth attack before the defenders of Nakajoyama had finished their training, trying to capture the so-called Oriental Maginot in one fell swoop.
According to what this old devil said, the original Maginot Line of Defense is no longer useful, and there is certainly no need to keep the imitation version.
Based on the existing intelligence, the army morale master plans to have a large-scale head-on battle with the First Army of the North China Front in May this year.
It doesn’t matter if others don’t understand the meaning of cold lips and teeth. After all, some people often get sick.
However, the Eighth Route Army cannot lose the Zhongtiao Mountain defense line yet. If the three B divisions facing the Central Army are released, the coming days will be troublesome.
Now the weapons and equipment of the three main forces are getting better and better, all they lack is development time.
More than four months have passed since the Hundred Regiment War, and the comrades have thoroughly digested the experience accumulated previously. If the enemy and we are in equal numbers, their combat effectiveness is no weaker than that of the Japanese.
With the crop seeds provided by the Yellow River, the army will gradually get rid of the plight of food shortage in the future.
At that time, as long as a certain amount of troops are replenished, a large number of infantry and artillery combined with a reasonable amount of air force will be enough to dominate Jin Province.
Basically, if you wait another year, the troops can fly as high as the sky.
In view of the above situation, the Eighth Route Army must take the initiative to help Zhongtiao Mountain relieve the pressure.
After all, you can't expect friction experts to actively cooperate with you. That is definitely something that can only happen when the sun comes out in the west.
"Okay, I'll leave the new 40mm rocket launcher to you. I've been busy recently with the air-to-ground rocket launcher, and I guess the results will be available in May."
After chatting here, it was already time to work. Zhong Lin took the last sip of tea and stood up and walked out the door.
"Let's work. We won the battle with preserved fruits. We can't be worse, lest some people make a big fuss about our Eighth Route Army wandering around but not attacking."
"great, good luck!"
I am now in the pain of overdrafting the plot. Everyone has seen what happened recently, so I guess Zhongtiaoshan can't write too detailed.
This time, almost 100,000 words of plot are missing, which is very annoying.
Eunuchs definitely don’t know how to be eunuchs. I don’t make money by writing books, I just want to write the stories I like.
And for me, after dealing with domestic matters, the international part is more exciting.
I just came back from a business trip a few dozen minutes ago, and I wrote this chapter on the high-speed train.
Let’s start with a small chapter today. Next week I’ll make up for the 6K I owe.
If you don't keep your word, you can abandon the book!
I'm going to save Chapter 20 first, wish me good luck!
