Rebirth of the Military Industry Power of the Anti-Japanese War
Chapter 71: The Red Army's Eastern Expedition
But Mr. Lin was not a vegetarian. He quickly gathered the main force of an army to launch a counterattack. At this time, the 35th Army, which had won the first battle, also made the mistake of underestimating the enemy. As a result, a main force of the forward group accidentally got into the forest.
The general set up an ambush circle and the entire army was annihilated. After the two battles, the two sides were evenly matched. However, because the regiment of the 35th Army was eliminated as an organic whole, most of the wounded soldiers of the Red Army could be demobilized and returned to the army, plus the transformation of prisoners
With a magic weapon, the Red Army actually took advantage of it, but after the war, Mr. Lin still received serious criticism from the great man...
It turns out that although the First Army Corps did not suffer in terms of soldier losses, perhaps because the 35th Army had more veterans and were very skilled in various life-saving skills on the battlefield, it was difficult to eliminate them. This greatly extended the fighting time. As a result, the Red First Army Corps had two soldiers.
The battle consumed more than 200,000 rounds of ammunition, but only captured less than 50,000 rounds. This was undoubtedly a huge loss according to the tradition of the Red Army. After this battle, on average, the Red Army had less than eight people left per person.
Fire bullets. If Fu Zuoyi launches a large-scale attack at this time, it will be difficult for the first legion to defeat him. Taizu, who was worried about Mr. Lin's mistake, quickly ordered Mr. Peng's third red legion to go for reinforcements. He also personally led his troops to meet with him in northeastern Shanxi.
Therefore, the eastern part of Xu Hai, which suddenly became isolated and helpless, had no choice but to retreat northward into the newly opened northern Shanxi base area in order to protect the results of the Eastern Expedition and the retreat of the main force.
Fu Zuoyi can be said to be the best-known general in the country in this era. However, due to the limited strength of his troops, he really could not afford to suffer too much losses. After learning the true strength of the Red Army, he did not dare to fight again. He just occupied the favorable terrain and stood firm. This way
Even if Taizu personally commanded the Red Army, they would not be able to capture it for a while. In addition, Fu Zuoyi's firm anti-Japanese stance and not-so-strong anti-Red political tendencies made it worthy for the Red Party to fight for it. Instead of fighting to the death in politics,
There was not much benefit. In view of this, Taizu quickly made the right decision. He left more than 10,000 elite troops to guard the 35th Army, and dispersed other troops and personnel at the junction of the three provinces of Shanxi, Chahar and Hebei.
The vast number of mountain villages actively promoted anti-Japanese and national salvation and spread the Red Army's popularity on the spot, which rapidly expanded the ranks and influence of the Red Army. As a result, the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base area appeared on the stage of history more than two years in advance.
Seeing that the Red Army was getting stronger and stronger, and that the reward promised by Yan Xishan had been received, and news came from Suiyuan that the Japanese and puppet troops were about to move, Fu Zuoyi was no longer willing to continue the confrontation with the Red Army, and issued an appeal to the domestic
After the major forces put aside their personal grudges and jointly defended against foreign aggression, they led the remaining troops southward to return to Suiyuan. Yan Xishan was naturally furious when he learned about it, but Fu Zuoyi at least bought him an extra month, compared to Song Zheyuan who refused to send troops for reinforcements.
It would be much more interesting to meet Han Fuqu. The old subordinates are old subordinates after all, but Yan Xishan has always been narrow-minded, which makes him hate Fu Zuoyi, the "traitor"...
Compared with the two warlords in North China, Chiang Kai-shek agreed to send troops for reinforcements early on. Firstly, he was worried that the Zhu Mao Red Army, which he was most afraid of, would regain strength. Secondly, this gave Chiang Kai-shek a legitimate reason to send troops into the north on a large scale.
How could he let go of the opportunity? As for the remnants of the Red Army in the south of the Yangtze River, Chiang Kai-shek felt that they were no longer viable and that leaving 100,000 people behind would be enough to annihilate them. However, he never thought that once Xue Yue and the large army left, Fujian, which had already been greatly reduced, would be destroyed.
The remnants of the Red Army in the Jiangxi-Zhejiang-Guangdong-Anhui border areas soon became active again...
The road to Henan is blocked by the Dabie Mountains, and it will take more than a month or two to capture it. Therefore, Chiang Kai-shek has only two ways to rescue Yan Xishan. One is from southern Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia and other places.
They sent troops to attack the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia border area to "encircle Wei and rescue Zhao", but the result was extremely disappointing to Chiang Kai-shek. Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng ignored his orders, even though the Ma's army in the northwest, which had always been on Chiang's side, was attacking Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia.
After the border areas suffered consecutive defeats (Note 1), they were no longer as active as they were at the beginning. After all, for warlords, preserving strength is always the first priority. Although Chiang Kai-shek also sent the Central Army to southern Shaanxi, Henan
We can't walk this way, so we can only take a detour through the rugged mountainous areas in the northern parts of Sichuan and Hubei provinces. We won't be able to reach it within a month or two. By then, Yan Xishan will probably be finished...
Therefore, after much deliberation, Chiang Kai-shek decided to let Xue Yue, who had the most outstanding record in "suppressing bandits", lead an army of 200,000 people into Shanxi via the "Northern Jiangsu-Shandong" route. By the way, he could also kill Han Fuqu, who had always been at odds with him.
, Xue Yue has always been good at this kind of thing anyway...
But with the example of Guizhou Wang Jialie first, how could Han Fuqu be willing to make the same mistake again? As a result, Xue Yue's original plan had to turn into robbery. Fortunately, the old Chiang Kai-shek's strategy of sealing officials and stuffing money worked wonders again.
The most elite pistol brigade commander of the Korean army, Wu Huawen, was bribed by someone sent by Chiang Kai-shek. When Xue Yue was attacking Jinan City, he suddenly defected, causing Han Fuqu's troops to collapse instantly. Xue Yue took over the entire Shandong without much effort and took over
There are tens of thousands of Shandong local troops and 100,000 militiamen, but the banditry that has become rampant again due to the change of regime has made him a little worried.
But even so, Xue Yue sent a total of 150,000 "reinforcements" to Shanxi, which was in a corrupt situation, as quickly as possible. But what he didn't expect was that because Fu Zuoyi had lured away the main force of the Eastern Expedition Red Army, Yan Xishan was under great pressure.
Minus, Xue Yue's method of getting rid of Han Fuqu made him fearful. Yan Xishan suddenly changed his mind and sternly refused the entry of the Central Army, which made Xue Yue and the old Chiang Kai-shek in Nanjing very angry.
With his strong foundation and influence in the country, Chiang Kai-shek did not dare to take action without sufficient reasons, so he had to order Xue Yue to temporarily return to Shandong. However, Xue Yue had just returned to Jinan when he heard a piece of news that almost made him vomit blood on the spot.
Taiyuan, the base camp of Xishan, suddenly fell...
Note 1: The Ma Jia Army is actually not as powerful as some people say. Even in history, the strength of the Ma Jia Army is ten times that of the West Route Army (the regular army alone is several times that of the West Route Army), and when the opponent made many mistakes, the Ma Jia Army fought
However, the number of dead was still more than that of the Red Army. It can be seen that in terms of combat effectiveness alone, the Ma Jiajun was obviously weaker than the main force of the Red Army (the weapons and tactics of the Ma Jiajun were very backward, and bravery alone was not enough.). What's more, the cavalry was not conducive to
In attacking fortresses, the Ma Jiajun, who lacks heavy firepower in offensive operations, is even less to be afraid of. In history, the Ma Jiajun has invaded the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region many times and has basically not taken any advantage. What about the fact that the Red Army is now more powerful? Of course.
If it is a field battle, the Ma family army, especially the Qingma cavalry, cannot be underestimated.
