    In the following time, Yu Xuezhong, Li Guoyao and others shifted the topic to the current war situation and discussed how the two departments should act next.

    After more than an hour of discussion, the two departments finally decided to launch a counterattack against the Japanese army in Lunan from now on, and completely defeat the Japanese army's encirclement and suppression.

    According to the plan formulated by the two units, the Sulu Theater dispatched the main force to contain the Japanese and puppet troops outside Yimeng Mountain. In addition, the 51st Army, with the cooperation of Li Guoyao's troops, captured Yinan County in one fell swoop and completely annihilated the Japanese troops in the city.  Lose.

    As a result, the Japanese army on the Lunan border only had the fifth division and the 114th division, which were relatively complete main forces. As for the 21st division and the 32nd division, they could not restore their combat effectiveness for a while.  This is a good opportunity for the Sulu Theater to establish its prestige.

    This plan was proposed by Li Guoyao. His purpose was not only to eliminate the effective forces of the Japanese army in Shandong, but also to connect the two anti-Japanese base areas of Xiong'er Mountain and Yimeng Mountain into one piece.

    Of course, doing so is also very dangerous. After all, the Japanese army is still much stronger than the National Army in Shandong. At least 90% of the towns in Shandong are under the control of the Japanese army. The National Army plus the Eighth Route Army only control  In some small towns and mountainous areas, once the Japanese army becomes serious, the national army will be very passive.

    But Li Guoyao still did it. The reason is very simple, because Li Guoyao was convinced that the Japanese army would transfer the Fifth Division away soon, and the Japanese army did not have the courage to launch a larger-scale offensive at the moment!

    This is not because the Japanese army is afraid of them, but because the little devils are now deeply involved in the battle with the Soviet and Mongolian troops and cannot extricate themselves!

    More importantly, the Japanese army did not seem to be doing well in the Battle of Nomenkan!

    Under the threat of the Soviet-Mongolian coalition, the Kwantung Army felt tremendous pressure from top to bottom. The base camp could only prepare the nearest North China Front Army for reinforcements at this time, and how could it dare to launch a larger-scale attack at this time.

    In fact, if the Kwantung Army Headquarters had not refused the Fifth Division to go north and insisted on using the 23rd Division with a weaker combat effectiveness as the main force in the Nomenkan area, the Fifth Division would have gone north long ago.

    Because he knew this, Li Guoyao decided to take a risk. After all, once this happened, the Japanese army's advantage in Lunan would be completely offset, and the Chinese army's life in Lunan would be easy in the future.

    Therefore, compared with the rewards, this risk is not worth mentioning at all!

    After formulating the battle plan, the troops immediately took action!

    At 11 o'clock at noon, after Li Guoyao's troops rested for several hours in Tongjing Town, the troops continued southward and headed straight for Yinan County.

    At twelve o'clock, the Shandong Guerrilla Corps and the 51st Army, the main force of the Sulu Theater, completed the encirclement of Yinan County. Nearly 4,000 Japanese puppet troops, including Nobu Mizuno, commander of the 10th independent mixed brigade of the Japanese army, were surrounded.  Went to Yinan County.

    A huge-scale offensive is about to begin, and the atmosphere in Lunan is getting more and more tense!

    The Chinese army is fighting in full swing, and the Japanese army is not idle either!

    Since the launch of the attack on Lunan at the end of July, the morale of the Japanese troops has been as strong as a rainbow. Within half a month, they occupied all strategically valuable cities and counties in Lunan. It can be said that they are invincible wherever their troops point.

    However, just when the 12th Army Headquarters was feeling a little excited, bad news came one after another.

    First, various troops stationed in Mongolia were attacked, and their lives and deaths were unknown.  Then the defenders in Mengyin and Yishui were attacked. The defenders were completely wiped out, and a large amount of weapons and equipment they had hoarded, as well as the food and other supplies they had snatched back were lost. The Chinese army launched a comprehensive counterattack, destroying what had been previously achieved.  The great situation seems to have suddenly turned around.

    What worries the 12th Army Headquarters even more is that thousands of imperial troops in Yinan County are currently surrounded. If they are not rescued in time, they may be eaten by the Japanese.

    But what puzzles them even more is where the Japanese troops in Mengyin and other places come from. Not only are they powerful in combat, but they also seem to appear suddenly without warning.

    After some analysis, most officers of the Japanese army believed that the national troops appearing in Mengyin and other places were probably under Li Guoyao's command in the Xiong'er Mountain Area.

    Then the 12th Army Headquarters decided to order the 32nd Division to conduct a test to see if the national troops in the Xiong'er Mountain Area were still there!

    So, just as Li Guoyao's troops launched an attack on Yinan County, the two main infantry brigades of the Japanese 32nd Division launched a tentative attack on Xiong'er Mountain.

    After receiving the telegram from Xu Hu from Xiong'er Mountain, Li Guoyao immediately ordered them to resolutely counterattack. Anyway, they had the advantage of terrain and the troops could not suffer losses.

      Following Li Guoyao's order, Xu Hu and others immediately launched a counterattack. In order to achieve the effect of deterring the Japanese army, Xu Hu mobilized more than 6,000 troops at once and took out all light and heavy weapons.  Good fortifications, resolute counterattack.

    The battle entered a fierce stage at the beginning. The two infantry brigades of the 32nd Division encountered iron hammers as soon as they took action. The two sides fought decisively on three battlefields for a day without a winner, but suffered extremely heavy losses.

    In desperation, Kimura Hy¨­taro could only report the situation to the 12th Army Headquarters and order the troops to retreat.

    There is no way. The 32nd Division itself suffered extremely heavy losses. If two more infantry brigades are lost, what will happen next?

    Besides, Li Guoyao¡¯s troops have been harassing Zaozhuang and other places during this period. Once the opponent takes this opportunity to attack other defense areas of the 32nd Division, the consequences will be disastrous.

    After receiving the telegram from the 32nd Division, the top brass of the Japanese 12th Army were completely confused.

    Since Li Guoyao is the main force of his unit and is still in Xiong'er Mountain, there is only one possibility, that is, they underestimated Yu Xuezhong, who also hid his troops and was an elite with strong combat effectiveness.

    With this understanding, Odaka Kamezo and others immediately realized that they were in big trouble!

    But at this time, Li Guoyao's troops had launched a fierce attack on Yinan County. Although Mizuno Nobu's troops could still hold on for now, facing so many main forces of the national army, Otaka Kamezo really didn't know how long Mizuno Nobu could hold on.  !

    In desperation, Odaka Kamezo had no choice but to report the situation step by step and request reinforcements from General Genda Sugiyama!

    After reading Odaka Kamezo's request for help telegram, General Sugiyama Motoda opened his desk, and the tea cups, documents and handicrafts were shattered on the floor.  At the same time, he cursed the high-tailed turtle for his incompetence!

    To be honest, Sugiyama Yuan wanted to mobilize reinforcements to reinforce them, but he was unable to do so.

    During this period, the Kwantung Army's fight in the Nomenkan area was very unsatisfactory, especially at the end of July when the 23rd Division launched a comprehensive counterattack against the Soviet-Mongolian coalition forces, and was beaten to a complete mess.

    The base camp was very dissatisfied with this and immediately ordered the Kwantung Army to properly resolve the dispute with the Soviet Union. If necessary, it could be resolved through diplomacy. However, this move was rejected by the Kwantung Army, and the two sides were in a deadlock.

    However, the Kwantung Army did not compromise and continued to mobilize the 7th Division of Rebei to go north to reinforce the 23rd Division in the Nomenkan area. At the same time, the 4th Division and the 2nd Division were not assembled and were ready to go into battle at any time.  .

    Seeing that this war is developing towards unlimited scale, the base camp is helpless. They simply cannot restrain the proud Kwantung Army. They can only order the Japanese army in North China to shrink their forces, actively prepare for war, and be ready to reinforce the Kwantung Army at any time.

    Under such circumstances, how could General Sugiyama Genda still be in the mood to take care of Lunan's war situation? Most of his mobile forces had been sent out and they had to return to their bases as soon as possible, otherwise his men would still be there when the battle order from the base camp came down.  Scattered in various places, that is not shooting oneself in the foot.

    In desperation, Sugiyama Yuan could only order the Japanese troops in Shandong to solve the problem on their own. If that didn't work, they would withdraw from southern Shandong!

    And Sugiyama Gen's order was tantamount to a fatal blow to Odaka Kamezo, forcing them to re-examine the battle situation. The battle plan formulated before the war was a complete failure. In this case, there was no need to persist.

    Therefore, Odaka Kamezo immediately issued instructions, ordering the Japanese army to stop the offensive across the board and reduce its troop strength.

    The troops on the northern front want to attack Yinan County at all costs and must rescue the independent 10th Brigade.

    In short, the Japanese army is scared!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
