    Li Guoyao's purpose in the Western Front Campaign was very clear, which was to eat up the main force of the Kwantung Army's Japanese army on the front line of Chifeng and Tongliao.

    According to reports from the Western Front during this period, the Japs stationed a total of about 70,000 troops on the Western Front, including 50,000 Japanese troops and 20,000 puppet troops.

    And these 50,000 Japanese troops are all Japanese field divisions with powerful combat capabilities, including the 7th Division, the 14th Division and the 29th Division.

    Although there are no large-scale tank troops and field artillery units, they are still very impressive in terms of combat effectiveness.

    To be honest, judging from the combat effectiveness of the tens of thousands of national troops on the Western Front, they really do not have the ability to completely annihilate this heavy group of Japanese and puppet troops.

    However, the main force of the four columns that have completed the change of equipment has quietly arrived in the northwest of Chifeng. Together with the more than 60,000 people of the three columns that were originally active on the front line of Chifeng and Tongliao, the total strength of the advancing army on the western front has now exceeded  120,000 people.

    120,000 elites fought against 70,000 Japanese and puppet troops. They had an absolute advantage in terms of military strength and also had a huge advantage in firepower. The only difference was that they had no air superiority.

    But the current situation is that the enemy is overt and we are covert, so Li Guoyao feels that if the tactics are used properly, it is possible to severely damage or even completely annihilate the Japanese heavy group on the Western Front.

    Although the Japanese army currently has more than one million troops in the Northeast, the actual main force is only more than a dozen divisions, and the rest are all war scum.

    Before the Japanese army could face up to their force, Li Guoyao hoped to severely damage its main force. This was the case with the annihilation of the Ninth Division, and it was the same this time.

    On February 2, Chen Jianzhong arrived at Bahrain Left Banner, where he held a combat meeting attended by column-level military officers and read out Li Guoyao's decision and combat plan on the Western Front Campaign.

    According to the plan, the troops on the front line of Chifeng and Tongliao will launch a comprehensive attack on the Japanese and puppet army strongholds in multiple areas of Tongliao and Chifeng in the next three days. While attacking the Japanese and puppet troops, they will force the other side to counterattack.

    Once the Japanese and puppet troops started to counterattack, the troops immediately evacuated with the opponent in hand, trying to lure these idiots to the hilly areas of Linxi area.

    At the same time, the four columns going south from Chabei are already waiting for the Japanese army in the Linxi area. Once the dogs enter the mountainous area, the hundreds of thousands of troops under their command will close the door and beat the dogs, swarming up and killing all the Japanese troops.

    In Li Guoyao's words, this battle can be divided into two steps. The first is to lure the enemy deep into the enemy's territory, and the second is to close the door and beat the dog.

    As the combat order was issued, the troops in Tongliao area were the first to take action.

    Late at night on March 3, the Japanese and puppet army strongholds in Tongliao, Naiman and Kailu were attacked by the main force of the national army at the same time, and the Japanese and puppet troops were hit in the waist as soon as they were launched.

    In the eyes of the Japanese, this army seemed to have been transformed. The army that was like mice a few days ago actually took the initiative to launch an attack, and destroyed more than 20 strongholds and blew up the  They captured 13 bridges, and also captured the county towns of Naiman and Kailu. It looked like they were in high spirits.

    Because there was no preparation in advance, the defenders on the front line of Tongliao were caught off guard. Basically, they were defeated by Zhou Dafu's troops without organizing a few effective attacks.

    However, the Japanese 14th Division stationed in this generation was not a good one. After receiving the report from the troops on the front line, the division commander Lieutenant General Iseki Takashi did not dare to neglect and ordered the troops to report the situation to the Kwantung Army Headquarters.  Organize troops to fight back.

    Subsequently, the two sides launched a bloody battle on the Kailu front line. After eight hours of bloody battle, the main force of the national army withdrew from Kailu. Lieutenant General Jingguan Longchang immediately ordered the troops to conduct a full pursuit.

    ??Then more than 15,000 puppet troops divided into two groups and chased them towards Chifeng.

    But just when Jingguan Longchang sent a report to the main force of the 7th Division in Chifeng, requesting the 7th Division to cooperate with them to encircle and annihilate Zhou Dafu's troops, he learned that a few hours ago the defenders of several towns on the southern line of Chifeng had also been attacked.  To the attack of the Chinese army.

    The opponent raided the Keshiketeng Banner, Bahrain Left Banner, Bahrain Right Banner, and Linxi County with no less than 20,000 troops. In less than five hours, the opponent defeated all the areas in the four northwest counties.  Line of defense.

    During this attack, the entire northwest defense line of the Japanese and puppet troops in Chifeng collapsed. More than 8,000 Japanese and puppet troops were killed and captured by the national army. However, no complete organization above the brigade was annihilated. The only one who was completely annihilated was one puppet.  Army infantry brigade.

    There was a storm on the Western Front overnight and more than 13,000 people were lost. This made the Kwantung Army headquarters furious and immediately ordered the troops on the Western Front to launch a counterattack.Take advantage of the opportunity when the Chinese army takes the initiative to attack, entangle the opponent and annihilate them all.

    In order to win this battle, Yamada Otsuzo not only ordered all the troops on the Jehol frontline to move north, but also mobilized more than 200 fighter planes from southern Manchuria to transfer to Tongliao to cooperate with the infantry.

    More than 14,000 Japanese puppet troops on the Tongliao front line pursued all the way to the northwest and arrived at Wengniute Banner on the afternoon of March 6. At the same time, more than 15,000 people pursuing from the direction of Chifeng also arrived at Wengniu Te Banner.  Within the special flag.

    ?Then the two Japanese armies quickly converged, and after joining forces, they continued to pursue and attack in the northwest direction.

    On March 7, the main force of the Japanese 14th Division arrived at Bahrain Right Banner, where they fought bloody battles with the main force of the Chinese army for a day and night. After paying an extremely heavy price, they finally captured this important town.

    At the same time, part of the 7th Division attacked Linxi County.

    In Linxi, the Japanese army encountered a tenacious resistance from the Chinese army, and the two sides launched a life-or-death contest in this small grassland county.

    The battle became intense from the beginning. The two sides engaged in a large-scale artillery battle shortly after the war began, and the fighting was evenly matched.

    After a bloody day of fighting, both sides suffered heavy casualties, but their positions did not change much. The Chinese army did not retreat, and the Japanese army did not capture Linxi County.

    The next day, the main force of the 14th Division arrived in Linxi with two brigades of puppet remnants and joined the battle group.

    The battle lasted until five o'clock in the afternoon. The more than 10,000 defenders could not bear the huge pressure and finally evacuated Linxi and fled to the hilly areas in the west.

    Perhaps because they retreated too hastily, these Chinese troops actually left a large amount of supplies in Linxi. There were even many mountain artillery pieces left on the artillery positions, but they only took away the most critical parts.

    Seeing this situation, Lieutenant General Jingguan Takanchang and Lieutenant General Li Dengxingyi, commander of the 7th Division, agreed that the Chinese army had completely collapsed and it was a good time to completely annihilate the opponent.

    At that moment, Jingguan Longchang decided to let Li Dengxingyi lead two regiments to stay in Linxi and Bahrain Right Banner, and launch an attack on Keshiketeng and Bahrain Left Banner, while he took the remaining 30,000 troops  People chased the Chinese army.

    However, Jingguan Longchang, Li Dengxing and others did not know that in the hilly area not far away, hundreds of thousands of elite national troops had loaded their artillery, set up traps, and were waiting for them to come and die.
