Beacon starts from the departure of a strong man

Chapter 315 The Guangxi family is in trouble, and the Sichuan Army helps out

Because the Pingjin front army attacked very smoothly.

Excellent results have been achieved in Lu Province, and the Japanese base camp has given up the policy of not expanding.

Hata Junliu's telegram requesting reinforcements was quickly approved.

This batch of reinforcements is the supplementary soldiers of the 1st Division, composed of soldiers from the [-]st Division's jurisdiction.

Hata Junliu looked on the map and found that the only way to break the deadlock was to march to the northern Jiangsu area!

He immediately gave all the newly arrived supplementary soldiers to the 101st Division.

The 101st Division is the closest to northern Jiangsu, and it is responsible for guarding Shanghai and Shanghai.

The 101st Division, Division Commander Masaki Ito!

Its soldiers are all supplementary soldiers from the previous 1st Division.

第101师团和第104、第106、第108、第109、第110、第114、第116师团一样。

全部是第4、第6、第8、第9、第10、第14、第16师团的辖区兵员编练成的新师团。

Their designations are also the numbers of 100 added in front of these divisions, and the numbers of the brigades and regiments they belong to are also added with 100 numbers.

The newly organized divisions are all ad hoc divisions;

In terms of strength, the four infantry regiments are the same as the standing divisions.

The only difference between an ad hoc division and a permanent division is cavalry and artillery.

The permanent division is the cavalry wing, while the special division is the cavalry brigade.

The artillery wing of the permanent division has 12 105mm howitzers, while the ad hoc division does not.

Masaki Ito's 101st Division suffered heavy casualties in the Shanghai battle.

When the head of the division Masaki Ito received the order to fight Oba Town, he directly talked back to Matsui Iwane.

If you lose your temper directly, your division can no longer move forward.

Because after the battle of Huanzaobang, the 101st Infantry Regiment under the 101st Division was almost wiped out.

All the commanders from the regiment leader to the squad leader have been changed.

If the fight continues, the alliance flag will be lost!
The rest of the alliances were similar, Masaki Ito chose to talk back to Iwane Matsui.

After Matsui Iwane learned about it, he changed to the 13th Division to fight Dachang Town.

Because the 101st Division suffered heavy casualties, this division did not participate in the pursuit of Jinling.

Instead, he stayed in Shanghai and took on the task of guarding.

Now that the 101st Division has enough troops, Hata Shunroku gave Masaki Ito an order to march to northern Jiangsu.

The army defending the northern Jiangsu area is Han Deqin's 89th Army, which has two divisions, the 33rd Division and the 117th Division.

And the 111th Division of Chang Endo of the Northeast Army!
Due to the terrain in the northern Jiangsu area, it is somewhat unfavorable for the three defending divisions.

The mechanized troops of the Japanese army advanced very fast, under the impact of aircraft and artillery, as well as tanks and armored vehicles.

Han Deqin and Chang Enduo retreated after fierce resistance;

The 101st Division of the Japanese Army captured many counties in northern Jiangsu, but after taking down the counties.

In order to maintain the occupied area, the 101st Division must place a brigade of troops in each county for defense.

The occupied area expanded, and the Japanese troops were scattered.

Han Deqin and Chang Enduo, who retreated, united with several local security groups;

As well as an army of the Guangxi army, they once again counterattacked several important counties.

At one time, it put a lot of pressure on the 101st Division, and the transportation line of the 101st Division was directly cut off by the Republic of China army.

The 101st Division once fell into the predicament of lack of supplies!

The 101st Division, which was in trouble, directly sent a message to Hata Shunroku for help.

The furious Hata Toshiroku had no choice but to contact Hasegawa Kiyoshi and ask the navy to transport food, grass and supplies to the 101st Division.

but!

When the naval forces go ashore, the 101st Division also needs to send troops to support them.

In the process of responding, the Republic of China army seized the opportunity and once again inflicted great trauma on the 101st Division.

Destroyed more than 200 kilometers of highways and railway lines, and took the opportunity to unplug the strongholds above, and took down several counties.

The successive setbacks made Masaki Ito very upset.

The troops were too dispersed and were often attacked by the superior forces of the Republic of China army. For this reason, Ito Masaki decided.

The 101st Division is staying in the southeast of Xuzhou, and is responsible for the security mission, and will not continue to pursue.

Guard the main roads and railways, prevent the troops of the Republic of China from passing through the roads and railways, and mobilize troops in the direction of Xuzhou.

After the plan was reported to the Central China Front Army, it was approved by Hata Shunroku.

At the same time, the 13th Division and the Ninth Division of the Central China Front Army.

The two divisions also received orders from Hata Junliu to intensify their efforts to attack northward and tear open their mouths.

However, the two divisions were also stubbornly blocked by the 51st Army and the 59th Army of the Fifth Theater.

The Guangxi 21st Army, the Seventh Army and the 48th Army below also cooperated with the 31st Army and took the opportunity to outflank the Japanese army's rear.

Several armies cooperated with each other and successfully blocked the attack of the Japanese Central China Front Army!
Moreover, several armies on the southern front of the fifth theater also took the opportunity to counterattack the Japanese army and restore the lost positions north of the Huaihe River.

In the attack on the southern front, the Central China Front Army failed to open their mouths, and the war reached a stalemate.

At this point, the Japanese offensive on the southern front stopped.

The Japanese army on the southern front was only auxiliary in the battle of Xuzhou, and the real main direction of attack was still in the north.

In the direction of the northern line, the 5th Division of the Japanese Army and the 10th Division of Rensuke Isoya.

Sakamoto Detachment and Raigu Detachment, these two detachments are a little different from the original time and space, and their strength has been strengthened.

The two divisions are trying to break through, and there are three divisions following closely behind.

In the north of the fifth war zone, the pressure is very high now.

Pang Bingxun's 3rd Army, Han Fuqu's 3rd Army, and Zhang Zizhong and other troops who went north for reinforcements.

Now it faces the possibility of being broken through by the Japanese army at any time.

Because of Han Fuqu's 3rd Army, they fled all the way and abandoned many cities.

This led to the original combat plan of the fifth theater, and there were still many future plans to be implemented, so it was completely aborted.

The Third Army withdrew, leaving the Jinpu line open to the north.

Right now, Langya and Teng County have become the two most important gateways in the north of Xuzhou.

Now Li Delin had no choice but to ask the 22nd Army of the Sichuan Army to enter Shandong as soon as possible.

The direction of Langya is now reinforced by Pang Bingxun's 3rd Army, but the direction of Teng County is currently short of troops.

In fact, Yu Hua also agreed to the Sichuan Army's entry into Shandong, but there was one requirement.

He suggested to Pan Wenhua and Deng Xihou that if the Sichuan Army is dispersed, they must request the Jinling Command.

The Sichuan Army has independent combat power on the battlefield, and all combat power will be fully responsible for the Second Route Army of the Sichuan Army.

Now the Sichuan Army has organized many security regiments in the rear, all of whom have received training.

Now that Marshal Liu has died of illness, it may become a luxury to concentrate the Sichuan army in one theater.

Even though the Sichuan army is divided into several theaters, there is no shortage of follow-up troops;
Coupled with the current arsenal in Sichuan Province, it can produce a lot of weapons to arm the Sichuan Army.

The troops of the Sichuan army divided into several theaters will exert their maximum combat power once they have the right to operate independently.

Pan Wenhua let out a long breath: "This Teng County!"

"I think our Sichuan army is still going."

"When I was in the Seventh Theater before, my 23rd Army, the Taihu area blocked the Japanese Tenth Army."

"The force is also relatively weak, lacking follow-up troops."

"Li Delin transferred Liao Lei's Seventh Army to the Seventh War Zone without saying a word."

"Now the fifth war zone is facing the Japanese attack, and there is a shortage of soldiers. This is a favor, and our Sichuan army has to help."

　Thanks to the big brother "Acupuncture Heals Fast" for the reward, and thank you for your support; I also thank you all the big brothers who voted, thank you, and kowtow to the big brothers... dong dong dong!
