In order to prevent the Japanese army from continuing to go south, the 20rd Division under the 133th Army set up defenses in Kuzhuling, Nanlouling, and Gedoushan Mountains. However, due to its weak strength, it was forced to withdraw under the Japanese attack.

But at random, the 140th Division made a comeback, and a regiment under its command came to reinforce it. After a fierce attack, it counterattacked the Japanese army and regained the two highlands of Nanlouling and Gedoushan.

After this incident, the 33rd Division of the Japanese Army was blocked between Dabailong, Jilongshan, Panshi, Jianjian, and Maishi, and could not advance.

In response to this situation, Amakasu Shigetaro had no choice but to re-formulate the battle plan and change the target. After discussing with other troops, they believed that the hope of marching from Maishi was slim, so they had to attack the Kuzhuling area, and then entered the Tao of Xiushui County. Shugang, head towards Changshou Street.

However, they had just turned around, and before they reached Kuzhuling, they were ambushed by the 20rd and 133th Divisions of the 134th Army in the area of ​​Baishaling. The 79th Division launched a flanking attack on the right side of the enemy. After a deadly battle, the Japanese army temporarily repelled the blocking defenders and marched all the way to Taoshugang, but was flanked by the 82th Division again, causing heavy casualties.

The 33rd Division of the Japanese Army, on this journey, was forced to divert several times, and was blocked several times. Not only was the progress slow, but the damage was also very large. The fight was very aggrieved, and the division commander Amakasu Shigetaro felt angry in his heart.

But at the same time as angry, there is also some distress and helplessness.

What is distressing is that the casualties of the soldiers under him are too tragic, but what is helpless is that in the face of such a situation, he has nothing to do at all!

The opponent's soldiers are more than them, and they are setting up ambushes everywhere, just to fight with them. The defenders can get rest and replenishment, but their 33rd Division can't get the slightest supplement, even the most basic supplies. It is very difficult to deliver the supplement of military supplies.

It can be said that this battle was very sad.

But there is no way around this. In this battle, Your Excellency the Commander made it clear that he was going to put all his eggs in one basket. If their troops didn't want to be wiped out or disobey orders on the battlefield, they could only obey orders!

But to obey orders is to fight the enemy desperately first!

This is their helplessness, they are completely involuntary!

Looking at the battle reports and losses sent by the various units under his command, Shigetaro Amakasu couldn't help but sigh in the 33rd Division, which was taking a break in Peach Tree Harbor.

"This is the big picture... It's beyond the control of me, the head of a division!"

……

Just when the war in southern Hubei and northern Hunan was in full swing, and when the commanders of Xue Yue and Okamura Ningji were paying close attention to the trend of the battle and giving orders at any time, at the same time, with People who are not directly related to this battle are also paying close attention to it and affecting this battle.

Text Chapter 809 Original plan

In this battle of Changsha, since northern Jiangxi has stabilized, the battle situation has all been transferred to the southern Hubei and northern Hunan regions, and as both sides have begun to exert all their strength, the battle situation has been very fierce.

However, despite the fierce battle, the Japanese army had lost all of their vigor due to the stalemate for a long time, while the defenders were fully prepared, so in the overall situation, they suppressed the Japanese army.

However, although the Japanese army was at a disadvantage, after all, there were still some vitality, and there were still the main force of the three divisions. Therefore, it would take a while to completely take it down.

Judging from the current situation, it may take ten and a half months to completely capture or defeat the Japanese army.

Now is not the time to launch a general offensive!

Therefore, under such circumstances, the two sides have fallen into a stalemate.

In the stalemate, in order to compete for a certain position or high ground, the troops of China and Japan will often form a tug-of-war, constantly robbing and snatching, so every battle is extremely difficult and fierce.

And often in order to win a position, one has to pay a very high price.

The little devil's front line is too long, and it is not easy to transport supplies, so the fight is very difficult. As for the defenders, although the situation is slightly better, it is not really easy.

Especially in the fierce battle of the 30 troops, the materials needed every day are calculated in huge quantities. Once the stalemate with the Japanese army is reached, the loss will continue. Therefore, on the surface, the defenders are still abundant, but in fact they are already a little stretched !

However, General Xue Yue was calm and not worried!

In his view, our army is already stretched, and the Japanese army thinks it is even more difficult. In this situation, they only need to fight steadily. The Japanese army will definitely not be able to hold on, so what we are fighting now is to see who can hold gas!

If anyone can hold his breath, he can avoid negligence and wait for the opportunity, but if he can't hold his breath, once he is eager for quick success, it is easy for the other party to find a gap.

Therefore, General Xue Yue is very calm, sitting in the general headquarters, commanding well, without any chaos.

General Command of the Changsha Battle of the Ninth Theater, Command Post of General Xue Yue.

General Xue Yue was discussing strategies with a group of staff in the headquarters. Their faces were not tense, but they were calm and relaxed, appearing to be quite at ease.

"Commander, act according to the plan we made before, and advance steadily and slowly. The Japanese army probably won't be able to last long. At that time, the Japanese army will definitely fight hard. Once they do this, there will be a great chance of mistakes. , when it arrives, it will be our chance to win and lose in one fell swoop!"

A staff officer looked at the sand table with a smile on his face and said loudly.

"Not bad!" Hearing this, General Xue Yue chuckled and said, "In this way, we can win this battle smoothly, and even if the Japanese army does not plan well, we may be able to inflict heavy losses on them. Even if there are one or two divisions remaining, it is uncertain!"

"However, before that, before the final result appears, there will still be great variables, so you must not be negligent, so as not to be taken advantage of by the Japanese army!" General Xue Yue warned.

"Commander, please don't worry. During this period of time, I have been waiting with all my heart and attention. I will never let the Japanese army take advantage of the loopholes!" All the staff officers said repeatedly.

"This way is good!" Having said this, Xue Yue couldn't help showing a smile, and said with a little emotion: "There are still ten and a half months at most to see the outcome, and when the dust settles, it will be a great victory in the battle of Changsha." At that time, many plans, countless plans were all for this day!"

General Xue Yue was deeply moved.

From the start of the Battle of Changsha to the present, for this result, he has made countless calculations, and he has worked hard every day without daring to relax in the slightest, in order to win this battle. Now there is finally great hope, he is naturally Heartfelt emotion.

"Yes! These days, the commander-in-chief has put in a lot of effort, and now he can finally breathe a sigh of relief!" Hearing Xue Yue's words, the surrounding staff officers also said with emotion.

These days, they are the staff officers of the general headquarters, but they have seen with their own eyes that their commander-in-chief doesn't even take a break every day for the sake of the battle situation. It can be said that a great effort has been put into building a camp bed.

Every time I think of this place, I can't help but feel a little admiration in my heart.

With such a commander-in-chief, if this battle is invincible, it will be unreasonable.

Hearing this, Xue Yue laughed: "Although the general trend has been achieved, we still cannot slack off, what's more, if we want to completely surround the Japanese army, we still need to make some changes, otherwise, with the current Japanese army position, if you see that they can't hold on, you can get away at any time, in that case, even if you win here, the result will be much smaller, but this is not what I want to see!"

General Xue Yue has great ambitions. He commanded an army of 30 in the Changsha battle. He not only wanted to repel the Japanese army, but also wanted to keep all the Japanese army. To inflict heavy damage on the Japanese army, at least the Japanese army cannot be allowed to retreat safely like this!

Although a 106th division had been annihilated before, in General Xue Yue's opinion, the results of the battle were still not enough!

If one or two divisions can be left behind, then it will be a worthwhile trip!

Thinking of this, General Xue Yue pondered for a while, and then said: "Now the situation is clear, our army's general trend has been established, and we can act according to the plan we made before! Pass it on from your side, and let all the ministries cooperate to lure the Japanese army in." , don’t let them run away!”

Hearing this, the staff officers present all looked at each other, and then said together: "Yes!"

After the promise was made, these staff officers were refreshed, and even their eyes brightened up.

One must know that the plan that General Xue Yue mentioned was extraordinary, and it was a decision that had been made before the start of the battle.

This plan was proposed by General Xue Yue at the military meeting held in Changsha before the previous battle started, and it was implemented with the consent of all the generals present.

It was originally planned to be implemented, but because of the Northern Jiangxi Campaign, it went very smoothly and wiped out the 106th Division as desired, so this plan has not yet been launched.

But now, what General Xue Yue wants to do is to severely injure the Japanese army, and even keep them all in Changsha. This plan can naturally be arranged.

Now they already have the upper hand, and using the previous results, their advantage has grown like a snowball.

It can be said that as long as they don't make mistakes in the next battle, they can basically be regarded as invincible!
