    During this period, the Japanese Kwantung Army assembled three divisions outside Shanhaiguan.

    On the front of the battlefield with a width of less than 50 kilometers, hundreds of consecutive fierce attacks were launched against Shanhaiguan.

    However, until now, they have not captured many villages and towns north of Shanhaiguan and the defensive positions built by the Fourth Army.

    This made the commander-in-chief of the Japanese Kwantung Army, Yoshijiro Kozu, very angry.

    In order to speed up their attack, Yoshijiro Kozu even transferred two armored divisions of the Kwantung Army from the Soviet border areas.

    They took the train and went directly south, intending to participate in the attack on Shanhaiguan.

    By then, the Japanese army will have assembled at least five divisions in this direction.

    In addition to the forces of these five divisions, there are other independent mixed brigades and various puppet troops participating in this attack.

    Fully 200,000 elite troops of the Japanese Kwantung Army will gather outside Shanhaiguan. This will undoubtedly be a huge test for Luo Xinghe.

    And Xia Yang also knew that Luo Xinghe was facing huge pressure at this time.

    ¡°However, he didn¡¯t have any more troops on hand, so Luo Xinghe could use them away.

    Therefore, Xia Yang¡¯s order to Luo Xinghe was to let him stay at Shanhaiguan for at least a month.

    During this period, the Eighth Route Army troops will provide certain troop support, but the Fourth Army really does not have more troops to mobilize. I hope Luo Xinghe can understand.

    Luo Xinghe also assured Xia Yang, saying that even if he did not receive any reinforcements, he could defeat the 200,000 Japanese Kwantung Army as long as he was given adequate fire support from the air force, artillery fire support, and ammunition.  All of them were blocked outside Shanhaiguan, preventing them from entering the customs and participating in the battle in the Pingjin area.

    At this time, Xia Yang's Fourth Army concentrated in the Pingjin area, with about 100,000 troops.

    And the Japanese attacking troops they had to face totaled 300,000.

    In order to relieve the pressure on Xia Yang¡¯s Fourth Army, the main force of the Eighth Route Army mobilized a full 50,000 people to assist him in the battle.

    These 50,000 people are all elite troops of the Eighth Route Army. They are well-equipped and have relatively high quality soldiers.

    However, even so, Xia Yang still felt that his troops were slightly insufficient, because the width of the coastline he wanted to defend was too long. If more than 100,000 people were thrown over it, there would be no way to form a very stable defense line.

    And Xia Yang was also prepared for a long-term battle with the Japanese army on the ground.

    As for the defensive positions along the coast, they were not able to withstand the fierce Japanese attack for a long time.

    Not to mention anything else, Japanese naval gun bombardments and aircraft bombardments from aircraft carriers can cause huge damage to their coastal defenses.

    "If their soldiers had stayed within the range of the Japanese naval gun fire, they would have suffered huge losses before they even encountered the Japanese army.

    In order to cope with the Japanese army's beach landing operation, Xia Yang convened his main commanders for a military meeting on the eve of the Japanese army's landing operation to arrange military operations for the Japanese army's landing operation.

    The main force dispatched by the Eighth Route Army is the main force of the 120th Division led by General He.

    As one of the main forces of the Eighth Route Army, the 120th Division was already a force with extremely powerful combat capabilities as early as the Red Army period.

    After the baptism of the Long March and the influence of several years of anti-Japanese war, this army has long turned into a powerful force as tough as steel.

    General He, the division commander, was one of the main Eighth Route Army commanders who participated in the early defense of the Jinggangshan Revolutionary Base and later the Long March.

    If I must say it, his qualifications are basically on the same level as the Chairman, Prime Minister, President Peng, President Zhu and others.  He can be regarded as a veteran figure.

    In order to facilitate communication with the Eighth Route Army, Xia Yang specially invited General He and some of his main commanders to participate in the deployment of this meeting.

    General He has big ears and a thick mustache on his lips, which looks like the mark left by a huge brush.

    When he spoke, his voice was very rough, with a sense of charisma and heroism.

    After seeing Xia Yang, General He also became familiar with him.  She shook hands with him very actively, then put her arms around his shoulders and had a cordial conversation. This made the somewhat reserved Xia Yang slowly relax.

      Because in Xia Yang's heart, he has always been facing the attitude of his revolutionary ancestors.

    He is always very humble and respectful. Even though he has a high military rank and even military merit, no one can match him on the entire Chinese battlefield.

    But when facing the older generation of revolutionaries, he still maintained the respectful attitude of a younger generation.

    General He originally thought that these generals of the Kuomintang were not easy to get along with.

    After all, for many years before, he led his soldiers to fight to the death with the national army.

    Many times, he even almost died in the hands of the national army.

    But now that he saw Xia Yang, he eliminated all his bad impressions of the national army from Xia Yang.

    Because in his opinion, Xia Yang was completely different from those national army generals, and flames burned in Xia Yang's eyes.

    That kind of flame is full of hope and passion. It is the unique flame of revolutionaries, no matter what kind of adversity they are under.  This flame will continue to burn until their lives come to an end.

    It is this kind of flame that enabled them to climb over the mountains and ridges, walk the 25,000-mile Long March, and keep the fire of revolution until now.

    "General He is so famous. I've heard about it a long time ago. It's been a long time since I got to see him. I'm really lucky."

    Xia Yang said to General He very respectfully.

    After General He heard this, he patted him heavily on the shoulder, squeezed him tightly with his rough palms, and said loudly: "I don't know, Commander Xia, are you polite or sincere?"

    As he said this, his eyes looked up and down at Xia Yang.

    Xia Yang immediately spoke up and said: "Of course this is true, my admiration for you lasts more than a day or two.

    Not to mention anything else, General Chen mentioned you no less than five times in front of me.  It is said that when you fight, your style is unrestrained and unique.

    The regiment leader under him, Li Yunlong, is quite worthy of your true inheritance.  "

    When Xia Yang said these names, General He felt a little more close to Xia Yang.

    He laughed loudly and said: "Did Lao Chen praise me like this? I thought this guy was behind my back and would say bad things about me every day. I didn't expect that he would actually praise me He Huzhu." (Remember this.  Website address: www.hlnovel.com
