    On July 2, the Battle of Southern Hebei began!

    Following the order from the Hebei-Cha War Zone Headquarters, a dozen carefully selected infantry regiments acted in accordance with the pre-established combat plan under the cover of night.  At the same time, the troops responsible for destroying the Japanese army's communication lines, with the assistance of a large number of people, also began to attack the communication lines in the Japanese-controlled areas.

    The battle started at one o'clock in the morning, and the unsuspecting Japanese and puppet troops were resting at this time, and they were caught off guard by the national army.

    The various branches of the national army acted extremely quickly, giving the Japanese army no time to react.  What we want is to be as quick as lightning, and what we want is to knock the little devil into confusion and kill him.

    In the early morning of that day, the 39th Group Army, which had received hints from the Japanese army, dispatched its entire force and in less than four hours, all eight strongholds in Feixiang were removed. At the same time, an infantry regiment of the puppet army was surrounded at the Zhaozhuang stronghold.  The Japs in Feixiang County became turtles in the urn.

    On the same day, the main five regiments of Guangping's 40th Army quickly attacked. In less than two hours, five strongholds outside the city were captured.  Unlike Shiyou's Third Division, Pang Bingxun's troops had a bigger appetite. They not only attacked the stronghold outside Guangping City, but also concentrated their forces to surround Guangping County.

    At this time, there were two squadrons of Japanese troops and a small number of puppet troops in Guangping City, with a total strength of more than 500 people. According to past practice, it was easy for 500 people to defend a small county town, but what they did not expect was that the attack would  The one in Quang Binh will be the 40th Army of the National Army.

    This unit has a fine tradition. It has made great achievements whether it is on the Shandong battlefield or the southern Hebei battlefield.  Relying on crude weapons and equipment, they conquered Guangping County in less than three hours. All the Japanese and puppet troops in the city were killed, and no one escaped. A lot of weapons and equipment were seized.

    At the same time, the main forces of the New Fifth Army and the 97th Army launched attacks on Cheng'an and Linzhang Counties. Although the combat effectiveness of these two armies was average, they were better because of their numbers, and both Zhu Huaibing and Sun Dianying were the kind of wall guards.  Damn, seeing that the other troops were progressing smoothly, they all wanted to gain some military glory, so they fought pretty well and destroyed all the Japanese and puppet army strongholds outside the city before dawn.

    Those who attacked Wei County were the Hebei People's Army and the Second Guerrilla Column directly under the jurisdiction of the Hebei-Cha Theater Headquarters. There were seven main regiments in total. The mission of these regiments was not only to attack the Japanese and puppet army strongholds outside Wei County, but also to destroy them.  transportation lines.

    However, just as the troops were attacking the Zhouzhuang stronghold, two Japanese squadrons in the city suddenly came out of the city for reinforcements. As a result, they were ambushed by Sun Liangcheng's troops, and the main force of the Japanese army in Wei County was annihilated.

    After receiving the news from the frontline troops, Lu Zhonglin immediately ordered his troops to attack the county town of Wei County. After two hours of bloody battle, the puppet army in the city collapsed first. The captain of the Japanese garrison in Wei County committed suicide, and Wei County was captured.

    This Warring States Army destroyed a total of more than 800 Japanese and puppet troops. At the same time, they killed 11 Japanese officers below the captain of the Wei County garrison, Yamazaki Major, and seized a large amount of arms hoarded by the Japanese army in Wei County.

    At the same time, Lu Zhanwu's troops launched an attack in Guantao. With the help of heartless artillery, they only used less than a thousand recruits to eliminate all six strongholds outside Guantao City.

    In addition, Lu Zhanwu specially mobilized a large number of ordinary people and asked them to wear the uniforms of national army soldiers and take advantage of the night to walk outside Guantao County.

    This circle really frightened the Japanese garrison captain. Such a large number of "Chinese troops" must be the main force of Li Guoyao's troops. Worried that the troops would be wiped out when they left the city, this guy simply closed the city gate tightly and at the same time asked Liaocheng's third party  The Tenth Division asked for help, but he had no control over the strongholds outside the city.

    Overnight, the national army seemed to appear out of nowhere, and in an instant, it beat five important counties near Handan to pieces. After dawn, the statistics of the results reported by various troops to the Hebei-Cha war zone were surprising.

    From 1 a.m. to 6 a.m., in less than five hours, all 38 planned strongholds were removed, and two county towns were also captured.

    A total of 768 Japanese troops and 4,877 puppet troops were annihilated in this battle. More than 7,000 long and short guns, more than 40 light and heavy machine guns, more than 20 large and small cannons, and several bullets and shells were seized.

    More importantly, within a few hours, the national army mobilized more than 20,000 people, dug up more than 2,000 kilometers of roads, blew up 67 bridges, and pulled out more than 50 kilometers of railway tracks. Traffic in the five counties in southern Hebei was completely disrupted.  Paralyzed.

    After the Hebei-Cha War Zone Headquarters received the performance reports from the troops below, everyone felt incredible!

    Although Li Guoyao said it very easily before the war, everyone is still very worried. After all, the Japanese army has been attacking for a long time, and they have been passively defending. The news they often receive is that that place has been captured, so?The place was lost, or the army was wiped out.

    ¡°I never thought that one day they would be able to counterattack and win as heartily as they did now.

    "However, happiness comes so suddenly. Those arrogant little devils and devils are like being squeezed out of clay. More than 5,000 people were wiped out in a few hours. This battle was really easy.

    After being pleasantly surprised, Lu Zhonglin immediately ordered someone to send the situation to Li Guoyao and asked if he could enter the second phase of the operation.

    When he received the telegram from the headquarters of the Hebei-Cha War Zone, Li Guoyao had already arrived at the outskirts of Daming County, preparing to attack this county where the Japanese army was heavily stationed.

    I was a little surprised to learn that the national army had completed the first phase of the combat plan.

    Although he was fooled at the battle meeting in the Hebei-Cha War Zone, he felt that this battle should not be a big problem, but he did not expect it to be so easy.

    In just a few hours, the troops had annihilated more than 5,000 Japanese and puppet troops, including 800 small Japanese troops. This is indeed a bit unbelievable.

    Although the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army is not as good as that of a few years ago, it is still very powerful. Among other things, the level of training of the Japanese army is not comparable to that of the general national army.  You must know that each Japanese soldier is required to fire 50 live rounds every day. What is the concept of this!

    Put it this way, during the Long March, and even after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the basic ammunition for each soldier of the Eighth Route Army was five rounds of ammunition, and the ammunition used by the little devils for training alone every day was ten times the standard ammunition of the Eighth Route Army.

    Although the National Army is stronger than the Eighth Route Army, the amount of live-fire training a person undergoes from being a soldier to going to the battlefield is only about two hundred rounds, which is equivalent to four days of training for a little devil.

    And the weapons and equipment of the Japanese army are also obvious to all. The soldiers cooperate well with the weapons and equipment and have strong willpower.  Therefore, one Japanese soldier at the beginning of the war can be worth 3-5 Chinese soldiers.

    The current decline in the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army is due to the fact that a large number of veterans have been killed and the scale has expanded by no less than 10 times, so that a large number of people without systematic training and even the old, weak, sick and disabled have gone to the battlefield, and the average strength has naturally declined.

    But even so, the national army is still far inferior to the little devils in terms of individual combat capabilities. Therefore, Li Guoyao was not completely sure when he deceived those in the Hebei-Cha war zone.

    ??And his idea at the time was that the first phase of the battle would take at least 24 hours, that is, one day and one night, but he never thought that these motley crews were so powerful and completed the work in less than five hours.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
