Because of Cui Geng's existence, Hu Yizhou could learn about the war ahead through telegrams, and knew that just when Jiuzhai was developing quietly, the Japanese finally launched a fierce offensive against Xuzhou.

After adjustments in April, in early May, the Japanese were entangled in nearly ten divisions in North China and transferred two Kwantung military regiments from the Northeast to launch an attack on the Chinese army in Xuzhou.

The Japanese attacked from the three directions of northeast, northwest and south, forming a huge encirclement outside Xuzhou, surrounding the Chinese army that had been immersed in the Taierzhuang victory.

If this encirclement is formed, then the Chinese army waiting for this encirclement will be a defeat. Just like during the Battle of Shanghai, hundreds of thousands of troops were surrounded by the Japanese and panic. Then, they escaped and ran away...

In terms of being besieged, whether it is the Central Army of the principal's family, the Gui Army, the Sichuan Army, the Yunnan Army, the Guangdong Army, the Northwest Army, and the Northeast Army, they are not as tenacious as our military rabbits!

Juntu: "We are born to be surrounded!"

Regarding the Battle of Xuzhou, there are many strategies and tactics that have been studied in the original time and space, such as turning defeat into victory or maintaining unbeaten strategies and tactics! Even now, there are many correct opinions to choose from.

However, the big guys who were blinded by victory chose the wrong method, and ultimately led the Japanese to achieve their initial strategic goals.

What is the strategic goal of the Japanese? Occupy the Longhai Railway, occupy the surrounding areas of Xuzhou, and encircle and annihilate the Chinese army here! The key is to encircle and annihilate the army here!

So when the bosses discovered that the previous strategy of offense and attack failed, they immediately turned into oily slipping away.

Perhaps the big guys have had the experience of escaping, but they actually left a way out for escaping when formulating an offensive strategy!

So, when the Japanese encirclement was about to take shape, all the Chinese troops in Xuzhou area withdrew from this area, leaving tens of millions of people to the Japanese!

How miserable the people were after being occupied by the Japanese, there were countless bloody cases! After the Japanese devils occupied Xuzhou, especially after the Huayuankou broke the dike, they issued an order to the people east of the Yellow River.

What order? A few or dozens of women from a village will come out to the Japanese military camp! That’s right, it’s women! Let’s not talk about what the consequences of these women will end up at the Japanese? The river crab beast is watching!

As a result, there were many women who could not bear the humiliation.

What's this? A general is incompetent and exhausted thousands of troops. The army is not good at fighting, but the people are in trouble in the end! This is exactly the opposite of what we do!

How many excellent commanders and soldiers did I have fallen on the way to cover the people's evacuation? There are countless!

Of course, we can’t say that the person withdraws wrongly. Anyway, he can’t beat the Japanese even if he stays there. It’s better to preserve his strength and wait for future generations! Well, it’s called strategic transfer!

The faster you can transfer such things, the better, and it is better to have a blocking battle! So, two very beautiful blocking battles started at this time, one was large in scale and the other was small in scale, but they were both very important!

The small battle was the Mengcheng blocking battle! Hu Yizhou learned how to dig a pit in the trenches of the Japanese in Baoshan City Trench to Tibetans from here!

In the Mengcheng blocking battle, General Zhou Yuan, deputy commander of the Gui Military Advisor, led many officers and soldiers to withstand the attack of more than 6,000 Japanese devils! He fought for three days and three nights, causing more than 1,000 injuries to the devils!

In this battle, General Zhou, who was already injured, died for his country. Only more than 100 people in the regiment broke through, and the wounded people who had evacuated before, only a few hundred survived. The rest were all killed in the small county town on the edge of the Wohe River!

The strategic significance of this battle is to win time for the strategic transfer (escape) of the large army.

Another blocking battle took place from April 22 to May 18. The 60th Army of the Yunnan Army was the one who participated in the battle, blocking more than 50,000 Japanese devils without further progress! And they also paid more than 20,000 casualties! This performance is much stronger than the Central Army!

Actually, during the entire War of Resistance Against Japan, the Yunnan Army was considered the best equipped unit! Well, the boss is rich! It is all French equipment, much older than the Japanese!

Not only are they well equipped, but they are also of high quality of soldiers. Most grassroots officers graduated from martial arts schools or military academies, and have high military qualities! The soldiers' marksmanship is also accurate!

Although most soldiers are ethnic minorities who love to sing, they love this country and dare to die for this country! They have been singing songs all the way to the battlefield!

It is said that when the Dian Army first contacted the Japanese, the Japanese didn’t know this group of people, and they looked different in military uniforms, all of which were French equipment. The Japanese were not vague, they all face to face, and they used bayonets to kill Jiji!

Well, the soldiers of the Yunnan Army looked at the fool and watched a group of small dwarfs rushing towards them. They naturally raised the guns in their hands and made a roulette of guns. The people were close, and they were more accurate than usual shooting targets...

(If you don’t say that the Gaul rooster is not good, the same equipment is different in our hands!)

The above is the battlefield situation here in Xuzhou in May. In Lanfeng, west of Xuzhou, the 14th Division, the Japanese who were rich in soil, went deep into the army alone and was surrounded by 12 divisions of the Central Army and beaten up.

Where is Lanfeng? Now I can’t find it, there is only one Lankao County there.

This is not the point. The point is that 12 divisions beat each other around a division but never beat others. They even made people overturn the market. They even chased the 12 divisions all the way back, and finally exploded the entrance of the garden by themselves...

The explosion at the entrance of the garden caused 890,000 ordinary people to be buried at the bottom of the water, and more than 10 million people were affected... It is really the biggest man-made disaster in the history of the Chinese nation!

The ancients said that killing enemies with a thousand will damage yourself by 800. Huayuankou suddenly killed enemies with a thousand will damage yourself by 890,000! At that time, the Japanese had not killed so many Chinese people! Just this way of playing, so what was the purpose of the War of Resistance?

Therefore, the people’s eyes are bright. Whoever is good for the people will make their own choices!

Why do people think of the first military rabbits in my flower planting family when encountering disasters in later generations? The saying "Serve the people" is not just a slogan, but a real thing to do!

It is May 1938, and the dam breaks on the Gardenkou dam on June 9. This is a man-made tragedy and a man-made disaster!

After one thousand months, a huge flood occurred in the Yangtze River. This is a natural disaster, and who is standing in front of the people in the face of natural disasters? Apple fans can check the information themselves!
