Chapter 570: Clear Code
In the previous battle, Shao Fei was also taken aback. The battlefield adaptability of those Taiwanese soldiers is comparable to that of other Japanese troops. What kind of combat force is the Botian detachment, Shao Fei put a question mark in his heart.
Battalion Commander Li asked, "What are your plans next?"
Shao Fei looked at the southwest direction and said, "Go to the south of Anqing and stick a knife in their backs." What about you? ”
"Heh" Battalion Commander Li chuckled lightly and said to Shao Fei: "Your promise has not been fulfilled, at least give me a company of Japanese equipment."
"But they ......"
Shao Fei looked at the soldiers behind Battalion Commander Li, and the complaints about himself just now were not small.
Battalion Commander Li said: "You don't know my soldiers. If you win before, forget it; But the troops sacrificed so much, and as a result, they didn't get anything, they must not be reconciled. We are poor and do not want to trade at a loss. ”
Shao Fei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I hope you go back with honor."
Subsequently, Battalion Commander Li arranged for manpower to escort the wounded back to the garrison first, and he continued to follow Shao Fei with the rest of the troops. At this time, Battalion Commander Li had completely trusted Shao Fei, and there must be greater gains with him.
Previously, Shao Feifa's clear code was quickly accepted by other radio stations, and immediately spread, and finally reached Li Zongren's hands.
Li Zongren asked, "Who sent it?"
The communications soldier replied: "There are two words written below the letter: Falcon."
"Falcon?" Li Zongren muttered softly, his expression a little strange. Falcon is the code name of Shao Fei's special combat team, and he used this code name to contact himself during the battle in Xuzhou. Now that they have appeared again, could it be them?
Xu Zuyi on the side also thought about it and said, "I remember that this is the code name of Shao Fei's special combat team, isn't he dead?" How to ......"
"Shao Fei is dead, but his special combat team is intact." Li Zongren thought of Shao Fei, sighed, and said, "Such an excellent talent, just like that......"
"He didn't want to be a prisoner, and he didn't want the Japanese army to make a big fuss. But the love of children is long, for a woman, it's not worth it. ”
Xu Zuyi pretended to be sorry, and then asked, "Then what now?" I think it's very credible, and this has always been a common trick of the Japanese army. On the Dawangmiao defensive line, the 146th Division inflicted heavy losses on the Potian detachment, and the Japanese army is likely to repeat its old tricks. ”
He trusts Shao Fei and Li Zongren, and naturally trusts his special combat team. So he ordered Yang Sen to ask the 21st Army to adjust its deployment overnight to prevent the Japanese army from attacking Anqing from the south.
Also getting the news were the Japanese army. The Bourbon detachment had just landed on the south bank 20 kilometers from Anqing at 3 o'clock on the 12th, but its meticulous plan was already known to the world.
Hatada Shigeichi is a cool-headed person and a lot of decisions. He was not confused by the failure of his deeds, and he sent a telegram in clear code, which read: The Botian detachment landed at 3 o'clock and launched an offensive against Anqing at 6 o'clock. The inscription is a falcon.
Shigeichi Harata made his true battle plan public, using it to disrupt the judgment of the enemy commander. The slightest hesitation on the part of Janssen would lose valuable deployment time.
"Report!"
The pillar ran over and said, "Found a clear message."
Zhuzi gave the message to Shao Fei, and Shao Fei had a worried expression on his face after reading it.
Battalion Commander Li asked on the side, "What's wrong?"
Shao Fei gave the telegram to Battalion Commander Li, and after Battalion Commander Li read it, he smiled and said, "It's a good thing, this can better prove the credibility of our previous information."
Shao Fei smiled bitterly and said, "It's the opposite. I'm curious about how your battalion commander became the commander, it's obvious that this was sent by a devil to confuse the commander of Anqing. ”
Battalion Commander Li was still not confused, and said, "I don't understand very well."
Shao Fei explained: "Does it make sense to send the same information twice? The second one actually has a specific landing time and attack time, can it be reconnoitred so clearly? This has a direct impact on the credibility of the first message. Now that the day is almost dawn, as long as the commander has the slightest hesitation, there is no time to deploy troops. ”
The pillar asked, "Do you want me to send another copy and attack the second copy of the clear-code message?"
Shao Fei said helplessly: "It's useless, it's only self-defeating."
At this time, the radio rang again, and it was another clear code. The content is: This is the Japanese army's diversion from the mountain, and it must not be tricked. It's still a falcon.
"Damn, it's over, isn't it?"
Shao Fei was a little annoyed, and the Japanese army began to play the psychological warfare that they were good at. Once they succeeded in making Yang Sen hesitate for a moment, wouldn't the three battalions die in vain before.
Shao Fei pointed to the pillar and ordered loudly: "Send it to me!" The Japanese army has landed on the south bank of Anqing and will attack Anqing at any time! Signed: **** of the emperor. ”
"Yes!"
The pillar smiled and immediately sent it out in clear code.
Shao Fei's simple and crude method did have a decisive effect. Li Zongren was initially a little hesitant, but when he received the fourth message, he was convinced. No matter how shameless the Japanese army is, they will not joke about their god-like emperor.
However, this approach is very similar to Shao Fei's style, isn't he dead?
Li Zongren immediately made a decision and ordered: "Telegraph Yang Sen, quickly deploy the southern line, it is urgent!"
Xu Zuyi, the chief of staff on the side, and Li Zongren felt the same way, and said with a smile: "Isn't Shao Fei dead?"
Li Zongren breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I hope."
The 21st Army carried out a troop movement overnight to defend the southern front with all its might.
"Baga Ya Road! This is the most shameless, scoundrel, and despicable act. ”
Shigeichi Harata couldn't laugh or cry, and shrunk the message into a ball and threw it out.
The staff adjutant of the command said indignantly: "General, the people of China are too despicable! They have insulted our Emperor in a blatant manner, which is unbearable! We've got to catch this guy codenamed Falcon and have him torn to pieces! ”
"Yaga ~ Falcon is not a person, it is a special combat team, a 12-person squad that has made many imperial generals have nightmares."
Ha Tian knew about the falcon, and when he was in Nanjing, Shao Fei used this code name to attack the 6th Division. But Shao Fei is dead, and the combat power of this special combat team should be much worse than before.
As for Anqing, Shigeichi Harata is determined to win. No matter how the 21st Army of the National Army deployed, the result was only in vain.
Po Tian ordered: "Order, the troops of the Great King Temple will attack at 4 o'clock; ordered, the 3rd Wing attacked the enemy south of Anqing, and requested fire support from naval gunboats; The 1st and 2nd Wings made a detour back to the west of Anqing, the 1st Wing attacked Anqing, and the 2nd Wing attacked the main force of the 21st Army from the flank. After the repulsion, it directly attacked the south gate of Anqing. ”
Even though the national army knew its battle plan, there were still two loopholes. First, the defense of the Dawang Temple this time is weak and it is easy to be captured; Second, even if the south side was replenished, there was a rush of time, and there was no time to build fortifications. A bombardment of heavy naval artillery will inevitably lead to heavy casualties.
