Brilliant Sword: Fighting against the Xixi System One Hundred Thousand Japanese Army

It is indeed a wise choice for the devils to choose not to fight in the Central Plains.

Because the devils think that relying on their own naval superiority, they can block the Yangtze River.

Except for Yamamoto 56 who is a staunch supporter of naval aviation, Yamaguchi Tamon, Kusaka Ryunosuke, and Onishi Takijiro, including Nagumo Chuichi, are all cannon giant ship advocates.

It is believed that aircraft cannot cause large damage to large surface ships at all.

Therefore, it is considered to be a very effective way to block the Yangtze River.

It can only be said that the devil's tactics are still in the period of World War I.

In addition, although the devils have exchanged many military issues with the Germans, the Germans' naval power is not as good as that of the devils.

Soon the latest telegram from the Central Military Commission came down. Lufeng's Mengjiang Field Army was in charge of attacking Jinan Prefecture, and the East China Field Army was in charge of blocking the devils who came for reinforcements from Xuzhou.

It also prevented the devils in Jinan from suddenly fleeing south and returning to Xuzhou.

The Central Plains Field Army and the North China Field Army went straight to Kaifeng.

Subsequently, the four field armies, with a total of 150 million people, formed a huge pincer offensive, directly hitting Hefei and approaching Nanjing.

Everything north of the Yangtze River was recovered by the Eighth Route Army.

There are two strongholds on the south bank of the Yellow River, one is Jinan Mansion and the other is Kaifeng Mansion.

The Devil's 12th Army in Jinan couldn't run away.

However, the 36th and 37th Divisions stationed in Kaifeng Mansion and Luoyang City heard that the Eighth Route Army was coming.

Don't even turn around and run away with your luggage.

At this time, Lu Feng realized that the father-son relationship between Bangzi and Guizi was real, and each of them ran faster than the other.

The Central Plains Field Army, which was able to advance thousands of miles into the Dabie Mountains, failed to surround these little devils and let them run away.

This is not the first time that the 36th and 37th Divisions have escaped.

When Lu Feng launched the Taiyuan Battle last time, he finally escaped from Lu Feng's encirclement.

It was almost surrounded by Lufeng.

The 37th Division and the 36th Division, which had already fought against the Eighth Route Army, measured their combat effectiveness with the Eighth Route Army.

It doesn't even count as a mantis arm blocking a car, let's run.

Therefore, the Central Plains Field Army and the North China Field Army had no trouble, and after crossing the river, they occupied the two important towns of Kaifeng Mansion and Luoyang City.

Then started heading south.

Lufeng's Mengjiang field army gathered in Dezhou, of course, made Lufeng a little disappointed, how come there is not even a single seller of grilled chicken on this street.

However, this is not important, can you still go to Zibo to eat skewers after taking down Jinan?

Lufeng began to deploy the attack group.

Lu Feng personally led the First Corps to form the Western Front Attack Corps.

Taking the lead in attacking Qihe, Changqing cut off the contact between the 12th Army of the Devils on the west bank of the Yellow River, the 5th Independent Mixed Brigade stationed in Liaocheng and Jinan Prefecture.

Take the lead in annihilating the 5th Independent Mixed Brigade stationed in Liaocheng.

Then capture the airport and launch an assault into the city.

The Second Corps led by Ding Wei formed the Eastern Front Attack Corps. After crossing the river from Binzhou, they went straight to Zhangqiu and Zouping to cut off the route of the 6th Zibo Independent Mixed Brigade and return to the city.

The last one is a special army led by Kong Jie who is not in Dezhou at this time, but in Handan.

Kong Jie's troops set out from Handan, passed through Dong'e and Pingyin, and went straight to Tai'an, annihilating the independent and mixed 10th Brigade stationed in Tai'an.

It surrounds Jinan Prefecture on three sides.

As for the north of Jinan Prefecture, that is the Yellow River.

Unless the little devil has the ability to airdrop the bridge car, there is no hope of breaking through.

Even if the little devil has the ability, there is no difference between breaking through to North China and dying. Now the entire North China region has been recovered by the Eighth Route Army.

Breaking through to North China is a walking military medal.

In Jinan Mansion, the commander of the 12th Army, Tuqiao, once put down the phone in his hand, his eyes were blank, as if his soul had been taken away by someone.

Major General Etsujiro Kono, the chief of staff at the side, asked, "Your Excellency, are you ready for reinforcements?"

One time, the commander of Dohashi seemed to be "sit up in shock from a dying illness", and slapped the table angrily: "Damn it, Shunroku Hata and Shigeru Sawada actually told me that there were no reinforcements and asked me to ask for help." How blessed!"

"Baga! Don't these two idiots know that to guard the Central Plains, you must guard Xuzhou, and to guard Xuzhou, you must guard Jinan?"

"If Jinan is lost, then the entire Central Plains will no longer belong to my country!"

"Now you actually say that there is no reinforcements, isn't that just surrendering the entire Central Plains?"

In fact, there was no intention of occupying the Central Plains in the devil's plan.

The most developed of the little devils is the navy, relying on the Yangtze River waterway, whether it is transporting troops, transporting food, or mobilizing supplies.

The water network in the south of the Yangtze River can provide convenience for the devils.

But entering the Central Plains area is not so convenient.

Waterway and land transportation costs are completely different.

In addition, the Eighth Route Army can destroy the railway, but the Eighth Road and Earth Road cannot be destroyed.

Therefore, the little devil originally hoped to win the Jiangnan region, then open up Guangdong, Guangxi and Yunnan, and then enter Southeast Asia, occupying India along the way.

For the devils, the Central Plains is not a place they cannot afford to lose. Even the devils are thinking about whether to draw rivers and rule with the Eighth Route Army.

It is impossible to reinforce the 12th Army. The southeast half and Southeast Asia are the places that the little devil wants, because there are a lot of natural resources and strategic materials here, which are too important.

Tuqiao, an old devil once, actually thought of this level.

The old devil in Tuqiao once said angrily: "Baga! This group of stupid pigs in the base camp have already given up the Central Plains, but they didn't withdraw us early, let us die here!"

"The only role we have left now is to consume more Tubalu!"

"Ba Ge Ya Lu, they are murdering, murdering us!"

Chief of Staff Kono Etsujiro said with some disbelief: "What? Why did you give up on us, why did you give up on this battle."

"The Central Plains is not important to us, but to Tuba Road, it is indeed a very important place."

"If the Tuba Road occupies the Central Plains, the population will increase by another [-] million in an instant, reaching [-] million."

"How many people can they arm with a population of [-] million!"

"At that time, brother country really wants to guard the Yangtze River, can it hold it?"

"Jinan just can't hold it, and it can't fall into Tubalu's hands so easily!"

Although the two old devils, Commander Dohashi Ichi and Chief of Staff Kono Etsujiro, think that it is a kind of strategic short-sightedness to give the Central Plains to the Eighth Route Army so easily, and it is completely irresponsible to the younger country.

However, this is already the best solution for the devil among countless choices at this time.
