    On January 25th, Datong City was wrapped in silver!

    This is a relatively cold time of the year. The north wind is howling outside, and large tracts of snowflakes are falling from the sky, dressing up the entire Datong City into a world of snow.

    The former Japanese garrison headquarters in Datong City has now become the headquarters of the Ninth Army.

    At this time, in the huge command hall, all the senior officers gathered together and stood in front of the sand table, waiting for something.

    At this moment, a major staff officer took a telegram and said: "Report to the headquarters, the 1st Cavalry Division has an urgent telegram. They have arrived at the attack position!"

    "Report to the headquarters, the Second Cavalry Division is calling urgently. They have arrived at the attack position!"

    "Report to the headquarters, the Third Cavalry Division has arrived at the attack position!"

    "Report to the headquarters, the cavalry group headquarters has arrived in Kangbao!"

    After listening to the report of the combat staff, Li Guoyao said immediately: "Everyone, since all the troops have arrived at the predetermined attack position, let's start!"

    Li Guoyao then continued: "Order the divisions of the cavalry group to take immediate action according to the original plan."

    "yes!"

    After the order was issued, Li Guoyao said again: "Those who fight in the front, let's discuss ours! Everyone must know the situation of this battle. The main force of the three divisions of our cavalry group went north in two ways to seize the Chabei grassland.  "

    "The Japanese army has a total of 5 garrison brigades stationed on the Chabei grassland, with a total strength of about 4,000 people. They are mainly stationed in Xilinhot and Sunit Right Banner. The rest are the four cavalry divisions of the puppet Mongolian army.  The total strength is 12,000, and the total strength is about 16,000. Everyone feels that our chances of winning this battle are high."

    As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Chief of Staff Ma Desheng loudly say: "From the perspective of military strength, we have an absolute advantage, with 30,000 people against 16,000, the ratio of the enemy's and ours' forces is 1:2. In addition, our troops  Most of the troops dispatched in the battle are elites, and their weapons and equipment are not inferior to those of the Japanese soldiers. On the surface, our army's chance of winning is about 80%."

    "But we must not forget that the Japs' troops on the front line in Zhangjiakou now number as many as two divisions and a mixed brigade, with a total strength of more than 50,000. Once the Chabei area is raided by our army, the Japanese army will  There will definitely be reinforcements for Chabei, so the cavalry group is likely to be attacked from the front and back by the Japanese and puppet troops. In that case, the chance of winning is not very high!"

    "I don't think the Japs will reinforce Chabei!" It was Zhang Tengjiao, commander of the 177th Division, who spoke.

    "What great ideas does Lao Zhang have? Tell me about it?" Ma Desheng said immediately.

    "Zhangjiakou is the most important barrier in Peiping. At present, our army has captured Xinghe to the east of Zhangjiakou and Shangyi to the northwest. Zhangbei in the northeast and Huai'an in the southeast are also within the threat range of our army. As long as our army is willing  , the main force can be concentrated to surround Zhangjiakou at any time, and it is even possible for troops to arrive at the city quietly. The reason why Okamura Neji concentrated heavy troops in Zhangjiakou is to defend this important town."

    Then Zhang Tengjiao continued: "Compared to Zhangjiakou, although Chabei Grassland has more than ten counties and districts, as well as the grassland city of Xilinhot, its strategic position is not very important. After all, the total population of the entire grassland is not very important.  There are less than a million people, not as large as the population near Datong. There is absolutely no need to put Zhangjiakou City in danger for the Chabei Grassland."

    Gao Hu also said: "I agree with the teacher's opinion. The distance between Zhangjiakou and Chabei grassland is more than three hundred kilometers. The Japanese cavalry has been completely lost. If they want to quickly reinforce Chabei, the only way  The solution is to use large-scale vehicle transport troops."

    "But there are no Japanese strongholds along this road, and the roads are very difficult to walk. Cars can easily break down. Once the troops are surrounded by our troops in Chabei, the consequences will be even more serious. With Neji Okamura's  Being cautious may not lead to reinforcements.¡±

    At this time, Xu Hu also spoke and said: "I don't think the little devils in Zhangjiakou can do anything. Regardless of whether they reinforce the army or not, Chabei Grassland will be conquered by our army. There is no doubt about it!"

    "It seems that our Commander-in-Chief Xu is very confident, hahaha!" Li Guoyao said with a smile.

    Xu Hu also smiled and said: "I am not confident in myself, but in the commander-in-chief. Since the commander-in-chief directly ordered the cavalry group to go north, there must be a 100% certainty. As for the issue of reinforcements from the little devils, the commander-in-chief  How could I not have thought that the 177th Division and the independent brigade units were all ready for the Japanese troops in Zhangjiakou."

    "If my prediction is correct, once the little Japs in Zhangjiakou dare to reinforce Chabei, the commander-in-chief will definitely order the troops to attack with all their strength, and then take this Zhangjiakou attackPlant a heavy city, and then threaten Beiping.  "

    "Hahaha! Lao Xu still understands me!"

    After laughing, Li Guoyao pointed to the terrain sand table and said: "My judgment is that the Japanese army will not reinforce Chabei. The reason is very simple. After Guisui, Baotou and other places were captured, the Japanese and puppet troops in Chabei grassland have become a lone army.  , Okamura Neiji has known this for a long time, and the main reason why he has not withdrawn the troops from this place is because he is gambling!"

    "What are you betting on?"

    "I bet our army doesn't care about this place. After all, Chabei Grassland doesn't have what we need. After we capture it, we have to find a way to defend it. Normally we won't pay attention here."

    Then Li Guoyao continued: "But it is a pity that he lost the bet. Although the Chabei grassland does not have the weapons, equipment and soldiers we want, it is the only way to the Northeast. In order to win the Northeast, we have great strength in this place."  You will definitely get it."

    Xu Hu also nodded and said: "This is what I am worried about now. Once we take the Chabei Grassland, we will have a head-on confrontation with the Kwantung Army to the east. At that time, we will be fighting against the North China Front Army and the Kwantung Army at the same time.  I¡¯m worried we won¡¯t be able to hold on!¡±

    Then Xu Hu said again: "When it comes to the military groups of the Japanese invaders, the Kwantung Army is the strongest. This is not only because the Kwantung Army has the largest number of soldiers, but also because of its transcendent status in the Japanese army.  It is not comparable to the North China Front Army or the South China Army. During the September 18th Incident, the Kwantung Army, with more than 10,000 men, captured the entire Northeast region in less than a year, and the gained territory was equivalent to 33% of Japan's mainland.  There is more than twice as much.¡±

    "In addition, the Japanese divisions under the Kwantung Army are among the top twenty permanent divisions of the Japanese army, that is, Class A divisions. Their combat effectiveness is very strong, and the quality of their soldiers is no better than that of the first batch of invaders after the Marco Polo Bridge Incident in 1937.  The Japanese army is far behind, so the Kwantung Army has always been like a sharp sword hanging over the head of the national army in Guan. Not only the national army, but also the Eighth Route Army and other local forces are worried about the Kwantung Army's large-scale invasion of Guan!"

    Everyone agrees with this statement, and many people even think that if Japan had not pointed its guns at the Soviet Union before and instead concentrated its forces to attack China, with the strength of the Kwantung Army and the Chinese Expeditionary Force, even if it had conquered the entire China  It's also possible.

    You must know that the reason why the Mongolian Army was unable to invade Shaanxi, Ningxia and other places from Suixi was entirely because the Eighth Theater withstood the Mongolian Army's attack.

    The main force of the Eighth Theater is Fu Yisheng's 35th Army. Although this unit has strong combat effectiveness, it may not be able to withstand a Japanese A-type division.

    If the Kwantung Army could send one or two divisions to the west in the past two years, I am afraid that the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Theater would only be to escape. By then, the Mongolian Army would directly capture northern Shaanxi or Ningxia, strategically completing the attack on the people.  If the government encircles us, then the outcome of the war of resistance may be different.

    Fortunately, the ambitions of the Japanese are far greater than everyone imagined. They not only want to get the millions of square kilometers of land in China, they also want to get all the territory east of Siberia in the Soviet Union, so they have never planned to enter the customs.

    But now Li Guoyao's troops are taking the initiative to attack the Kwantung Army. No matter how good-tempered the Kwantung Army is, I am afraid they will not let them continue to advance eastward. By then, the tendency of the Ninth Army to challenge the Kwantung Army and the North China Front alone will definitely  It must be avoided.
