    How the troops will develop after they go north is not only a concern of Li Guoyao, but also the focus of all officers.

    If there is no strategic goal, then they will be bandits, and they will eventually be annihilated. Therefore, when they heard Li Guoyao speak, everyone pricked their ears and listened carefully.

    Li Guoyao ordered someone to unfold a map of North China, lay it flat on the conference table, and then pointed to a point on it and said: "Look, everyone, this is Sumu Mountain. This place is not on the map, and you can't see it. It can only be roughly  I guess it¡¯s at this location.¡±

    "Although Sumu Mountain is vast and sparsely populated, it was once the place where the Zhao State garrisoned troops during the Warring States Period. The famous "Battle of Zhao and Hun" took place in the Sumu Mountain area. The famous general Li Mu "defeated more than 100,000 Xiongnu cavalry" in the Sumu Mountain area.  And when we go north from south Hebei, our strategic goal is naturally not for this mountainous area, but for the five provinces of Shanxi, Suizhou, Chahar, Hebei and Re!"

    Then Li Guoyao drew a circle on the map and continued: "Please see, with Xinghe as the center, there are six counties and districts distributed almost equidistantly, namely Xinghe, Fengzhen, Yanggao, Tianzhen, Huai'an  As well as the Chahar Right Front Banner. These counties belong to Suiyuan, Chahar, Shanxi and Hebei respectively, so if we occupy this place, we can attack Suiyuan in the west, Shanxi in the south, threaten Hebei in the southeast, and threaten Hebei in the northeast.  Then we can develop towards Chahar.¡±

    "The most important thing is that the strength of the Japanese and puppet troops on this front is far inferior to that of southern Hebei, Shandong and other places. According to surveys, the Japanese have only one presence in the entire Mongolian Xinjiang region, including Chahar, Suiyuan and northern Shanxi.  The garrison, designated as the Mongolian Garrison, is a legion-level combat unit reorganized from the Chahar Dispatch Corps of the Kwantung Army."

    "Although it is a legion-level force, the number of all its combat units is very limited. It only consists of one field division, one mixed brigade, and an independent cavalry unit. Excluding the puppet army, this unit has  The total strength is only about 28,000 people, which is equivalent to a Class A division in the pass"

    Before the words fell, everyone was a little excited!

    Although most people have never been to this place, they are all officers who lead troops to fight, and they are all very familiar with the map.

    The places Li Guoyao mentioned just now are not small. There are at least 20 counties in the northern Shanxi region including Datong, and there are at least 20 or 30 counties in the Suiyuan region. Chahar and northern Hebei and other places combined have less than 20 counties.  It is said that there are twenty or thirty counties. In such a large area, there are only more than 20,000 and less than 30,000 garrison troops. On average, each county is probably only two to three hundred people.

    And it is obviously impossible for little devils to treat important cities like Datong and Zhangjiakou and small counties like Xinghe as the same. Therefore, it is completely conceivable that the garrison of most counties in this place may be surprisingly small.

    "The sudden appearance of such a large force with astonishing combat effectiveness is equivalent to putting the crocodiles in a small pond, and suddenly there are no natural enemies, so they can eat whatever they want!"

    "General, isn't there a powerful puppet army in the Saibei area?" Lu Dashan asked.

    "Well, this is what I am going to talk about next. In addition to the less than 30,000 Japanese devils, there is also a puppet army in this area, designated as the Mongolian Army. The specific situation of this army can be told by Chief of Staff Gu and Wu Yun  Commander Qiqige, tell me, after all, they were part of this army before!" Li Guoyao said.

    Hearing Li Guoyao's roll call, Gu Mingtang immediately stood up and said: "General, colleagues, I do know a lot about the situation of the Puppet Mongolian Army. This army was planned and established by Demuchuk Dompulu in the 25th year of the Republic of China, and was organized by Japan.  The puppet army was funded, planned and hijacked by others, and I personally participated in almost the entire process of forming the entire army."

    "Shortly after the September 18th Incident, the Kwantung Army organized the "Mongolian Autonomous Army" in order to take advantage of the power of eastern Mongolia. However, when the Puppet Manchukuo was established, the Mongolian alliance flags in the occupied areas were included in the Puppet Manchukuo, and the Xing'an Mountains were used as the mountain range.  Instead of being named after ethnic groups, it was divided into four provinces: east, west, north and south. The "Mongolian Autonomous Army" was also renamed the "Xing'an Army". After King Deok raised the banner of Inner Mongolia's autonomy, the Japanese secret service, which was planning to expand into Inner Mongolia, regarded King Deok as the  The point of win-over.¡±

    ¡°In the winter of 1935, the Kwantung Army sent a telegram inviting King De to go to Xinjing, the capital of the puppet Manchukuo, to discuss important matters. King De, accompanied by officials from the Japanese secret service, went there on a special Japanese plane. After finding out the Kwantung Army¡¯s backstage, King De  Discussed with the Japanese secret service and King Yun how to create an independent situation. So the Chahar League Office was later established."

    "After the establishment of this office, although King De's territory expanded, it was still a local government. He could only command the banners and counties under it, and could not order other alliances to assist in the expansion of the army. Therefore, he stillWork quickly to prepare for the establishment of a general headquarters.  In order to expand his strength, King De took a fancy to the "Chadong Garrison" commanded by Li Shouxin.  The "Chadong Garrison" was also a puppet army supported by the Kwantung Army. Through the planning of the Japanese, Li Shouxin, despite his reluctance, finally led his troops to surrender to King De.  With this ready-made army, King De established the Mongolian Army Headquarters in King De's Mansion in Sunit Right Banner.  "

    Then Gu Mingtang continued: "After Japan launched a full-scale war of aggression against China, King De and others openly surrendered to the enemy and organized a puppet regime in the Japanese-occupied areas in eastern Inner Mongolia. The puppet "Mongolian Army" also became a force directly commanded by the Japanese invaders.  A mixed puppet force of Mongols and traitors. At present, the Puppet Mongolian Army Headquarters has a commander-in-chief and a deputy commander-in-chief, with two ministries of military affairs, government affairs and a secretariat. King De is appointed as the commander-in-chief and minister of government affairs, and Deputy General Li Shouxin  Commander and Minister of Military Affairs. There is also a Japanese advisory department. When I was there, Hikojiro Muratani served as the advisor."

    "As for the organization and numbers, the Puppet Mongolian Army currently has 9 divisions, all of which are cavalry divisions. Each division has three regiments, and each regiment has 4 companies. There are no battalion-level combat units. Each regiment has  The troop strength ranges from approximately 500 to 600 men, and the total strength of a division is between 1,500 and 2,000 men.¡±

    As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Lu Dashan say in surprise: "Are 1,500 people called a division? It's not as large as our infantry regiment?"

    At this time, Li Guoyao said: "That's different. You must know that all the troops of the Puppet Mongolian Army are cavalry, and the cavalry's establishment itself is smaller than that of infantry. Moreover, they are puppet troops, so their establishment is often large and their actual troops are small.  It¡¯s relatively normal for a division to have between 1,500 and 2,000 people!¡±

    Gu Mingtang also said: "Actually, there are quite a few. You must know that the little devil's cavalry brigade has less than 3,000 people. This is related to the cavalry's combat method. The cavalry cannot be measured by the personnel standards of infantry at all!"

    Li Guoyao nodded and said, "Well, that's the truth! Commander Wuyun, do you have anything to add?"

    Wu Yunqiqige immediately stood up and said: "Chief of Staff Gu just talked about the basic situation of the Puppet Mongolian Army. It's nothing on the whole, but there are some things that I feel it is necessary to talk about!"

    "Please tell me!" Li Guoyao said.

    Wu Yunqiqige immediately said: "In fact, the Puppet Mongolian Army is not united within the army. It exists between the Han Army and the Mongolian Army. After the Puppet Mongolian Army Headquarters was established at that time, a total of two armies were established. Li Shouxin first army  Commander, King De was appointed as the commander of the Second Army. The First Army was adapted from Li Shouxin's "Chadong Garrison Army", which originated from the old "Yi Army" stationed in Rehe, the militia of Weichang County and the Chaoyang area  Hu bandits, as well as horse thieves from the Tumut Left Banner and the Horqin Tribe. In addition to Li Shouxin, who is a Mongolian, there are about 10% Mongolians among the officers and soldiers, basically based on Han people."

    "But because King De's Second Army couldn't stand up, they asked the Kwantung Army for additional troops from the Mongolian banner ruled by the puppet Manchukuo. However, the Japanese were afraid that the Mongols would unite and they were difficult to control, and they intended to let  Li Shouxin had a conflict with King De, so instead of uniting the Mongolian army, they specially transferred more than 6,000 troops from Li Shouxin's hometown Zhuosotu League and Zhaowuda League, which had been stationed for a long time, and incorporated them into King De's command!"

    "Most of these 6,000 people are Mongolians from the two banners of Tumut and Han from Chaoyang and Fuxin counties. The number of Mongolians is more than twice that of Hans, and most of the officers are Mongolians. However, this group of people is divided into four,  The Fifth and Sixth Divisions were later incorporated into the First Army, and were collectively referred to as the "Mongolian divisions" of the "Mongolian Army". Originally, the Japanese wanted to use these Mongolian divisions and the Han army to provoke a conflict between Li Shouxin and King De, but they failed  Since most of the commanders of these Mongolian divisions were related to Li Shouxin, the three newly formed divisions were eventually annexed by Li Shouxin."
