As the place where the Chinese soul and Yamato soul collided fiercely, as many as 7,000 people died on both sides within two kilometers of the front line near the entire breakthrough. Because when the Japanese army broke through in the last vertical direction, Dai Peng organized all the police, military police, militia, and young and middle-aged people in Chaoyang, and more than 4,700 people were all involved in the counterattack of the breakthrough. The huge casualties only made the control of the position last for only a few hours.

After the body was cleaned up, Dai Peng felt it was necessary to report to the commander-in-chief of the war zone to expose this steel cemetery as a landscape, so that future generations could remember this bloody battle and the heroic souls of the martyrs! Dai Peng's suggestion was quickly approved by Zhang Xuewu. The steel cemetery would become a landmark park in Chaoyang City forever. The tanks destroyed by our army and the enemy were not pulled away and fixed on the spot with cement foundations after being treated with anti-corrosion. As a landmark attraction

And patriotic education base. It is also stipulated that students and soldiers will come here to visit and pay tribute every year. Travelers passing by Chaoyang and various personnel coming to Chaoyang are willing to come here to see the tragic battle at that time. However, the experimental iron cavalry medium-sized main battle tank that participated in the battle was completely sealed by a sealed facility of ** for a full five years. It was not until the Iron Cavalry medium-sized main battle tank galloped across the Far East and put it on the battlefield on a large scale that people realized that the initial battle of the Iron Cavalry medium-sized main battle tank was in Chaoyang.

As the main battlefield of the war, Zhang Xuewu inspected Chaoyang after the war. Zhang Xuewu stood on the ruins of Chaoyang Fortress. The full-scale attack of the Kwantung Army made Chaoyang the center of the battle. This was a battle that determined the fate of the Tenth War Zone. It can be said that Zhang Xuewu fought an unprepared large-scale defensive counterattack. The losses in the Tenth War Zone were huge, so that Zhang Xuewu's previous plan to occupy Jinzhou and threaten Shenyang was all lost. After more than 50 consecutive days of combat, the tenth War Zone was also in short supply.

Especially in terms of logistics support, the ammunition reserved by various ammunition depots on the front line, especially shells, were basically exhausted, and the situation in oil materials was not optimistic, because there is a huge gap between the actual oil materials consumed and the theoretical ones. After all, the transportation and use of oil materials are all consumption processes. These are also things that Zhang Xuewu did not consider before.

In addition, the jackal light tanks of the First Armored Division, the Second Armored Division, and the Third Armored Division are urgently needed to maintain and repair the necessary maintenance and maintenance. The armored second division, which has the most serious losses, has only about 40% of the normal state. It can be said that combat vehicles that require overhaul due to mechanical failures and improper operation accidents are actually several times higher than combat losses, and Zhang Xuewu is helpless with such serious non-combat losses.

If, without mastering air supremacy and lacking railway transportation, armored clusters will require very reliable logistics support to invest in large-scale operations. The theory and organization of armored troops in the Tenth War Zone are imitating Germany. However, in fact, the support team of armored troops in the Tenth War Zone cannot compete with the German logistics support team in the United States. If the German armored troops abandon the railway transportation and only rely on their own motor power for long-distance raids. Under the standard plain road surface, the implementation of all-terrain marching attack conversion can be continuously 700 kilometers without overhaul.

For the current armored forces in the 10th War Zone, the maximum limit for marching combat conversion is 400 kilometers. If it is a single-point marching state, the highest record is only 700 kilometers. However, after this 700 kilometers, an armored division full of people can only maintain no more than 40% of its combat effectiveness. Logistics support is a problem that Zhang Xuewu has to pay great attention to.

Without reliable logistics support, the combat effectiveness of the armored forces will not be fully utilized. For the logistics machinery maintenance, oil and ammunition supply of armored forces, Zhang Xuewu felt that it was necessary to set up a special logistics school and the equipment department and logistics department to give it the right to participate in the meeting of the General Staff Headquarters to formulate strategic plans.

The entire Japanese 6th Division was found. Only the body of the suspected leader of the division was found. It was said that his head was carried by the adjutant and left the battlefield early. The Japanese army seemed to have used the trick of suicide to inspire their subordinates to fight to the death. Therefore, Zhang Xuewu was not surprised. The 16th Division of the Japanese army was completely defeated at night and did not achieve the so-called goal of encirclement and annihilation. In order to chase and annihilate the remnants of the Japanese army, the First Regiment of the First Armored Division even chased near Beipiao, 60 kilometers away from Jinzhou.

Naturally, the corps flag was not able to be seized. The Japanese learned their lessons and burned themselves before the war started to show their determination to fight to the death. The Japanese's desperate resistance also brought great trouble to the troops pursuing in the 10th War Zone. As the saying goes, one man is desperate and ten thousand men are invincible. The Japanese's suicide counterattack once caused a considerable loss to the pursuers. Moreover, the pursuing troops were constantly divided into troops to encircle and block the troops. The division commander, regiment commander and even battalion commander could not control the troops. This was a very dangerous thing in combat command. Moreover, Zhang Xuewu was also facing huge logistical supply pressure. Only when this batch of Soviet aid and OEM weapons, ammunition and oil arrived could he plan a new offensive!

The Chinese are the most particular about coming and not being rude. This is equivalent to being attacked by someone and being beaten up. Zhang Xuewu was looking for directions and preparing to fight back, but the other party actually ran away? For the evildoers and shameless guys, they could only beat him hard and let him remember you firmly and dare not try his edge and power easily. Zhang Xuewu has been secretly accumulating strength, always afraid that the Japanese will know all their trump cards. As a result, the Japanese regard him as a soft persimmon with a huge threat. It doesn’t matter if they pinch it, and they pinched a commander-in-chief of the Kanto Army, the whereabouts of a chief of staff were unknown, and the three division commanders were bleeding on the battlefield. This is undoubtedly another major Kansai earthquake in Japan!

Moreover, Zhang Xuewu learned through the intelligence department that the commander of the Kanto Army trusted by the Japanese army was Mijiro Umezu, who had always been famous for his good defense and prudence, was one of the few calm people among the senior Japanese generals. It was not easy to find out his flaws. Mijiro Umezu was a serious person, and strategic and tactical deception was not very effective. Moreover, the Japanese army would definitely station troops in Jinzhou to resist stubbornly. Moreover, the six Japanese divisions and two mixed brigades of Okamura Nishi's troops also retreated into Jinzhou. It was obviously unwise to attack.

Zhang Xuewu really wanted to chase the enemy with the remaining bravery, but the cruel reality made his combat plan unable to be implemented, and the troops also needed rest and supplementary. Therefore, Zhang Xuewu made every effort to prepare for the war. The losses of the Japanese army were huge, so the Japanese Kwantung Army would definitely not be able to launch a decent offensive in the next six months. Moreover, the main force of the Japanese North China Front Army followed Okamura Yasuji to retreat to Jinzhou. Zhang Xuewu decided to take advantage of this rare opportunity to sweep the Japanese army in North China.

Having stuck Shanhaiguan and beating the Japanese army in North China! Zhang Xuewu began to prepare for his new combat plan. He put the Japanese army retreating to Jinzhou. Zhang Xuewu naturally would not let the Japanese be idle. The Air Force Fighter Group in the Tenth War Zone had long regarded the Japanese Kwantung Army Flight Division as the target of training, but the Japanese are now deliberately avoiding war.

The Air Force in the Tenth War Zone asked the Japanese to practice several air defense drills every day. Even when this oil was extremely tight, the aviation oil supported by the Soviets was barely enough. Most of the oil used for the aircraft group to take off were imported from the Soviet Union and the United States with real money and silver, and transported to Dingyuan Camp through the Far East Railway. A good and experienced pilot needs to accumulate flight time. Zhang Xuewu would rather spend more fuel and equip more advanced aircraft types, and he would never want to see his fighter jets being beaten to a "turkey" in the sky.

Meijiro Umezu, who was in charge of Jinzhou, also seemed very uneasy in the face of the 10th War Zone army in Chenbingshanhaiguan. The troops of the 13th division were crowded on such a narrow battlefield? Meijiro Umezuzu was not a pig's head, which was equivalent to giving the enemy a rare opportunity to encircle and annihilate, especially in this situation where the enemy lost air supremacy and the enemy had a large number of fighting chariots, the morale of the imperial army was sluggish.

Meijiro Umezu thought of many ways to inspire the morale of the officers and soldiers, but it was not very effective. The officers and soldiers who went to the comfort station often fought in the downtown area, and even two officers fired guns, resulting in the death of several people. This was probably unimaginable before. The powerful Kanto Army, the flower of the Imperial Army, was beaten to the full morale. It seemed that the imperial officers and soldiers of the Great Japanese Empire only used their strength to vent on women, and had the courage to fight.

However, the staff of the Japanese Army General Staff did not think much. Ishihara Kanir and others, who were restored, believed that the reason why the empire failed in the key battle in the attack of the 10th War Zone was that during the battle, the Soviets continued to support Zhang Xuewu's troops with continuous supplies and weapons and ammunition. If Zhang Xuewu's Su aid was not cut off, attacking Xuzhou would also be a huge problem for the Imperial ** team.

Ishihara Kanr submitted an imperial strategy to the wartime base camp, among which the countries that could be used as an imperial friendly country and countries that threaten the imperial living space. Germany and Italy were both on the list of allies, and the British rule that controlled the Indochina oil fields in the Strait of Malacca was regarded as the enemy.

Strategically, Ishihara Kanr advocates going north rather than south, because the Caucasus Plain and Siberia have a large amount of oil resources. If they can form an alliance with Germany and jointly deal with the Soviet Union, then the Soviet Union will have to fight on two fronts. In international politics, due to the political system, the Soviet Union was isolated by the United States, Britain, France and other countries, and will not touch the interests of the United States, Britain, France and other countries in Southeast Asia.
