Base System of Bashu Heroes

Thanks to Bocan book friend for the tip, thank you.

"It's so insidious. Why did the committee member do this?" Liu Tianchu looked at Liu Xiang in confusion.

Liu Xiang smiled bitterly: "It's very simple. The committee has never believed in me or the Sichuan Army. How could he see you further strengthening, forcibly crossing the Huaihe River and bombarding Longwang Mountain in Nanjing? The whole army was shocked, and everyone knew it." Liu Xiang suddenly looked at Liu Tianchu suspiciously. ."Where did you get those cannons?"

"We have our own arsenal, what's so strange about that?" Liu Tianchu still didn't understand what his uncle meant. He was going to die just because he had too many guns?

Liu Xiang thought thoughtfully. "No wonder!" After a moment, Liu Xiang shook his head repeatedly: "You are so confused! If you set up an arsenal, it will be even more difficult for you and me to tolerate the appointment."

Liu Tianchu sneered: "What else should we do? The government does not issue food and wages, and it does not even replenish guns and ammunition. How can the Sichuan army survive?"

Liu Xiang sighed again: "I don't know what you're talking about? You make weapons without authorization, how can the committee accommodate you? Your wife, your niece, and others have been sent by the military commander on the grounds of taking care of my health. Zhengzhou, we are on the road at this time. In the name of taking care of my body, the real intention is to put me under house arrest and coerce you. No matter whether we win or lose in the Lanfeng battle, you will be in trouble."

It's despicable enough. Now Liu Tianchu is in trouble. The purpose of the government is to control the Sichuan Army. But as long as Liu Xiang is here, it is difficult for outsiders to interfere. Deng Xihou, Sun Zhen, Tang Shizun, and Pan Wenhua are all powerful figures in the Sichuan Army. Deng Xihou He and Sun Zhen were affiliated with the 22nd Army. Deng Xihou had grievances with Liu Xiang for many years and was at odds with himself. However, his weapons were inferior and he was completely dependent on government supplies. He was troubled by the insufficiency of the surnamed Jiang. The ministries under the 23rd Army were Liu Xiang's cronies. If he takes control of Liu Xiang's troops in the 23rd Army, Chiang Kai-shek will definitely use his usual trick - internal breakthrough, and the most likely internal rebel is Tang Shizun.

These things are nothing for Liu Tianchu to worry about. What he is worried about now is that his wife has also come to Zhengzhou with Liu Tianchu's four wives. This puts him in a dilemma. He has never seen these people and doesn't know them. How to deal with them.

When Liu Tianchu in Zhengzhou was gloomy, the headquarters of the 14th Lanfeng Division was equally gloomy. The Sakai detachment moved east of Yuncheng, but was blocked by Feng Huaizhu of the 137th Division of the Sichuan Army. It sluggishly moved forward. Doihara Kenji personally led the main force. The attack on Kaifeng was also blocked at the city walls, but Liu Tianchu's 133rd and 134th Divisions arrived at Guide City three days after passing Mengcheng, a full two days earlier than Kenji Doihara expected.

The famous division commander Doihara Kenji, 55 years old, was born in a military family in Okayama Prefecture, Japan in 1883. At the age of 14, he entered the Sendai Army Infantry School and later transferred to the Tokyo Army Central Infantry School. Tokyo Army Central Infantry School After graduation, he went to work in the 15th Infantry Regiment of the 14th Division. On the 21st, he graduated from the Japanese Army University and later worked at the General Staff Headquarters. In July of the same year, he was sent to work at the Banxi Mansion in Peiping (the Japanese Army's secret service agency in Peiping, headed by Banxi Lieutenant General Rihachiro presided over). In June 1918, Doihara was transferred back to the General Staff Headquarters and later served as advisor to the Heilongjiang Governor. In 1920, he was appointed captain of the 25th Infantry Regiment. In May 1921, he went to Europe to inspect military affairs. He returned to Europe in December of the following year. Returning to the Banxi Mansion, Zhang Zuolin served as Zhang's advisor when he was in charge of Northeast China, and later participated in planning the Huanggutun incident that killed Zhang Zuolin. From March 1931, he successively served as the chief of the Tianjin Secret Service and the chief of the Fengtian Secret Service. He was the planner of the September 18th Incident. One of them. In June 1935, Doihara was sent to North China to plan North China's autonomy. In March 1936, Doihara was promoted to lieutenant general, and was transferred back to Tokyo to serve as the commander of the remaining 1st Division. March 1937 In May, he was transferred to the position of commander of the 14th Division. Because he had lived in China for a long time, he was familiar with China's customs and customs, and could speak fluent Chinese and several dialects.

In the battle of Lanfeng, he severely manipulated Xue Yue, the commander-in-chief of the third war zone, and used the advantage of mechanization to shuttle back and forth. Dofeihara used the right column to contain Lanfeng from the front. The main force moved from the southeast of Lanfeng first to the west, then to the northwest, and finally

To the north, an arc was drawn around Lan Feng, forming a semi-encirclement situation for the Lan Feng defense line. The 46, 36, 61, and 106 divisions defending the area were rushed to pieces, and then quickly attacked Neihuangji and Nei in Minquan County.

Huang Station encountered almost no resistance, and then attacked Neihuang, Mazhuangzhai, Renheji and other places. The Japanese army first started bombarding under the guidance of balloons, and then the Army Air Force also began bombing. Under the strong air and ground firepower, only one attack

Waves, easily captured Lanfeng...

The Battle of Lanfeng went so smoothly. Kenji Doihara, who had been doing intelligence work for a long time and had experience in leading troops, was dazzled by the victory. He ignored the orders from the base camp and continued to attack Kaifeng. The Kaifeng defenders resisted tenaciously, allowing him to cut off the Ping-Han Line.

The plan came to an end. Liu Tianchu's Sichuan army marched 500 miles in three days and arrived at Lanfeng City, which surprised the sober-minded Kenji Doihara. He had already had a premonition that this was a strong opponent.

In the headquarters, Kenji Doihara looked at the map and kept thinking, trying to find out the main direction of the Sichuan army's attack and besieging Lanfeng. The intention of the China Military Commission was to protect the Pinghan Line and prevent him from moving westward, but Liu Tianchu's Sichuan army was unable to do so.

Heavy troops were deployed on the eastern front, firmly guarding the Yucheng, Guide, and Dangshan-Longhai railway lines, which echoed Jining and Yuncheng. Could it be that he had his own intention to cover Ma Liangjun's attack on the flanks of Tai'an and Xuzhou? As he expected,

So is Lan Feng defensive or offensive? Doihara Kenji is confused.

After pondering for a moment, Doihara Kenji decisively ordered to stop attacking Yucheng, Guide, and Dangshan lines, and transfer his troops to the Jining line to contain Liu Tianchu, and then the main force attacked Kaifeng with all his strength. As long as Kaifeng city is broken, Zhengzhou will lose its gateway and cut off Pinghan.

line, the China Army lost supplies, and its strategic goal was achieved.

At the same time that Kenji Doihara adjusted the strategy, Xue Yue and Li Zongren severely criticized Liu Xiang at the Zhengzhou Military Conference. The government's purpose was to prevent the Japanese army from advancing westward and defend the Pinghan-Han line, but the Sichuan army deployed its troops on the Jining line and abandoned Kaifeng and Zhengzhou.

Ignore and do not cooperate with friendly forces.

Of course, the King of Sichuan, Liu Xiang, was not a vegetarian. He argued hard that Xuzhou, Lianyungang, and the entire Longhai line were stationed by Sichuan troops. Xuzhou was facing pressure from two Japanese divisions, the Fifth and Tenth Divisions. Should friendly forces be cooperating with him?

The military meeting broke up unhappily. Liu Tianchu was secretly pleased with Liu Xiang's domineering attitude. His purpose was to contain Dofeihara from going east to reinforce Tai'an. Since Lan Feng had no success in winning or losing, he simply started practicing Tai Chi. In one word, Tuo! Take advantage of this.

Given the opportunity, the Sichuan army could fully rest and recuperate. As long as Ma Liangjun captured Tai'an and marched to Jinan City, his goal would have been achieved.

The war in Kaifeng was in full swing, and the Sichuan army rarely had a rest on the eastern front. From Songhu to Nanjing and then to eastern Henan, they fought all the way and fought in all directions. Liu Tianchu finally had time to wash off his scalp and wash away the gunpowder smoke all over his body.

Sanyi Village, where Liu Tianchu's troops are stationed, is a small town in Lanfeng. The sunshine in early spring is not warm at all. The setting sun shines on the land of eastern Henan, and the surrounding fields are vast. The small town is very small. Outside Sanyi Village, there is an endless white wilderness.

, everything dies in winter, except for the vast expanse of snow and a lonely tree in the distance, there is no life at all.

Just as Liu Tianchu got a breather, bad news came one after another. The Japanese Sixteenth Division from Nanjing moved north, and the national troops from Xuzhou and Zhengzhou gathered in Wuhan to prepare for the Wuhan battle. Commander-in-chief Liu Xiang had to adjust his deployment again. Deng Xihou, Sun Zhen, and Li Jiayu

The Ministry had no choice but to shrink again and make every effort to guard the Longhai Road line.

Ma Liangjun's attack was also blocked in Tai'an. Isotani Rensuke's 10th Division and Sakagaki Seishiro's 5th Division bypassed Ma Liangjun and Feng Huaizhu and approached Linyi, Jining, and Xuzhou respectively. The Japanese Navy's Fourth Fleet also arrived in Lianyungang.

Launching a rapid and violent offensive, Tang Shizun's troops defended their coastal positions and fought extremely fiercely. The Japanese troops in Qingdao also aggressively increased their troops to Weifang and Zibo via sea routes. Pan Wenhua's troops were in danger of being surrounded, and the situation in eastern Henan and Shandong was precarious.

The only good news is that the scholar did not break his promise and produced 24 tanks in less than half a month. When he learned that the tanks were already on their way to Jining and Lanfeng, Liu Tianchu excitedly shouted to the scholar: "Hey, it doesn't mean that we can only produce ten tanks."

? Why are there 14 more cars?"

"Aren't you happy that there are fourteen more cars?" The scholar rarely joked back.

Liu Tianchu knew from the scholar's words that the scholar must be very satisfied with his product to be so happy. "The tank must have been tested? That's why you are so happy?"
