Seya Kai was much more cautious than Isoya Ryosuke, and the troops he commanded had more than 20,000 people, which were divided into three teams, the first was the 10th Wing of Chishiba Yaezo, which was currently mainly stationed on the Zaozhuang line, and then the 63rd Wing of Furong Zhenpei, which was attacking Taierzhuang, and his brigade headquarters, about 5,000 people.

When he went south, he was sniped to varying degrees in Zaozhuang and Yicheng, and after fighting, it was found that this was most likely the mysterious "Tang" army.

This unit is the elite of the Chinese army in the Xuzhou area, commanded by their generals of the ZY army, and its combat effectiveness is quite not weak.

At first, he was influenced by the search force of Furong's troops, thinking that it was the "Tang" army that ambushed them, and the "Tang army" was very likely to retreat in the direction of Taierzhuang.

But after contacting the defenders of Taierzhuang, he found that his previous judgment was wrong.

The Taierzhuang garrison was another Chinese army, a unit that dealt a major blow to the Japanese army in the Huainan battlefield, and the North China Front did not have much intelligence support for the situation of this force.

This unit is the best-equipped, strongest-willed, and most capable unit that Seya Kai has seen since he entered China.

This unit first set up an ambush in Beiluo and ate his search team in one bite, which showed the strength of its combat effectiveness, and he had never seen such an active attack and such a murderous Chinese army.

Then, on the night of the next day, he advanced his artillery position to the front and bombarded the artillery position of the Furong Wing in the woods east of Liujiahu in one fell swoop.

And the battle for Taierzhuang made him shudder even more!

The troops guarding Taierzhuang were by no means as simple as ordinary elites, and in such a harsh battle, they did not mean to panic, and their morale was always maintained at a fairly high level.

Under the fierce battle, the soldiers of the Great Japanese Empire did not take much advantage!

Although it is said to occupy part of the northeast corner of Taierzhuang, the brutal street fighting made Seya Kai realize that it is not easy to capture Taierzhuang easily.

At this time, a telegram arrived at Kei Seya's command desk.

Ryosuke Isoya actually asked Kei Seya to send a force to help the Fifth Division that was blocked in Linyi, and this order was not from Ryosuke Isoya's original intention, but an order from the headquarters of the Second Army.

Kei Seya didn't know the purpose behind this order, but with what he knew about Ryosuke Isoya, he would never give such an order at this time.

But the order was indeed signed by Ryosuke Isoya again.

This shows that Ryosuke Isoya must have been under pressure from the top.

It is true that the Sakamoto detachment encountered a stubborn resistance from the Chinese army in Linyi, and the losses were not small, but it was not yet at a critical juncture that could not be controlled.

At this time, he asked him to send troops to aid Sakamoto, obviously for other purposes.

In any case, Kei Seya had to obey this military order, so he adjusted his deployment and pulled out part of the 10th Wing of Chishiba Yaezo to form the Yizhou Detachment, which advanced in the direction of Linyi to support the Sakamoto detachment.

Zhang and Pang taught the arrogant Itagaki Division a hard lesson in Linyi, which is worth rejoicing, but the losses of the two armies in the battle were also very large.

The casualties were very heavy, and Zhang and Pang decided not to take the initiative to attack the Japanese army, maintain the existing demarcation line, and maintain a high degree of vigilance against the Japanese army.

Li Delin believes that the Linyi side is based on defense to ensure the safety of Taierzhuang, and the risk factor of taking the initiative to attack is very large, and this is even what the Japanese army wants.

He very much agrees with Zhang and Pang's pragmatic approach, and is more confident that they can keep Linyi.

Lao Jiang didn't expect that Zhang and Pang would cooperate so well in Linyi, and they won the battle, although it was a little sour, but this is also a good thing, and he has no reason not to express it.

The General Order commended the Fifty-ninth Army and the Third Army Corps.

After receiving the news of the victory in the air battle of Taierzhuang, Lao Jiang excitedly turned back and forth in his study several times, the victory on the battlefield of Xuzhou can not only inspire the fighting spirit of the national military and civilian anti-Japanese war, but also greatly enhance his personal prestige.

Even if we have to negotiate with the Japanese in the future, we will have more initiative.

At night, Luojia Mountain is quiet and charming, and the old Jiang, who is more than half a hundred years old, takes his wife and walks on the pebble path by the lake after dinner, and the attendants and guards follow from a distance, not daring to come forward to disturb.

"Brother Jie!"

"Madame is here, today's victory, Madame is indispensable!"

"They are all soldiers on the front line who sacrifice their lives and forget their deaths, what credit can I have?" Madame Chiang is the secretary general of the Aviation Committee, and she has single-handedly supported the construction of the Air Force, and is known as the "mother of the Air Force."

It is not an exaggeration to say that the victory of the Air Force was a victory under her leadership, and Madame Chiang did make great contributions to the Chinese Air Force, and even in order to be qualified for the position of the Aviation Committee, she was still studying aviation theory and related industrial knowledge.

"I intend to award medals to the officers and men who participated in this air battle to encourage our air athletes to achieve new achievements!"

"These things, you just decide." Madame Jiang smiled slightly.

"Madam, at present, the mood of the domestic war of resistance is high, and we have won several partial victories in a row, I think we may be able to hold Wuhan without going to the mountain city." Lao Jiang's mind was a little lively.

The changes in the battle situation in Xuzhou made Lao Jiang feel that the battle situation might not be so bad, the Japanese army was blocked in Xuzhou, as long as he hit him harder, he might not be able to attack Wuhan, even if he couldn't hurt them, he could ensure that Wuhan was not in danger for a period of time.

As long as sufficient time is given, there is still much to be done to defend Greater Wuhan.

"Brother Jie, I don't understand military affairs, but Japan's war potential is not comparable to mine, if Japan really wants to start a full-scale war with me, what are the chances of victory?"

"Madam, Japan's biggest enemy at the moment is Soviet Russia, not us."

"Can't a tiger conspire with a lion?"

Lao Jiang was slightly stunned, he is not a stupid person, how can there be any friendship between countries, the more sanctimonious the country on the surface, the more male thieves and female prostitutes on the inside, China has had enough of it all these years, and there are fewer things that promise you on the front foot, and regret it on the back foot?

"After all, can we really live in peace with *** like this?"

When it came to Lao Jiang's heart, of course he couldn't tolerate it, but now the situation forced him to join forces with his opponent to fight against a stronger enemy.

"Sir, sir......" Lin Wei came quickly, obviously in a hurry, otherwise he would not have come over at this time to disturb the rare time of their husband and wife together.

"What's the matter?" Lao Jiang is a little displeased, as a leader, he naturally has a temper, and the people under him are always so rough, how to do things?

"Dai Yunong is here, I have an urgent matter to see you!"

"Invite him to the study, I'll be there in a moment!" Lao Jiang commanded, he was reluctant to talk about things outside, especially when he was walking with his wife.

"Yes."

"Yunong, what made you so anxious to see me?" Back in the study, Lao Jiang asked kindly.

"The news just came back from Tokyo that Japan held a secret military meeting as early as April 4 and made a decision to expand its armaments, and the army will expand at least 20 divisions on the current basis, and in addition, the Japanese government has specially set aside a war fund to settle the Sino-Japanese war, with a figure of up to 4 billion yen!"

"What?" Old Jiang was shocked by the shaking of his hand, this news is too shocking, if it is true, it means that the Japanese are planning to start a full-scale war with China.

Any peace talks are all deliberately unleashed ghost tricks, which are deliberately paralyzing them.

"Also, Lu Xiang Sugiyama Yuan has been kicked out of the core of power, this time he was not allowed to participate in the secret meeting, and the Japanese side strictly sealed the news." Dai Yunong said nervously.

"Yunong, how did you know that the Japanese were so tightly sealed?" Lin Wei asked strangely.

"There is no impermeable wall under the sky, not to mention such a big action, it is impossible not to show the wind at all, the recruitment of soldiers, the production and reserve of weapons and ammunition, as long as it moves, it is not difficult to know, but the Japanese are not known to the outside world so quickly, especially us." Dai Yunong avoided the heavy and said lightly.

Lao Jiang didn't care about Dai Yunong's intelligence sources, he cared about the accuracy of the intelligence, if it was true, then China would be in danger next.

Once Japan is determined to invade China by force, and China is now under the conditions of national strength, there is no hope of winning this war.

Lao Chiang knew in his heart that Japan had never really regarded China as an adversary, and as long as Japan did not pour the whole country's strength to come, there was still hope for China.

"Sir, Japan's military expansion is not necessarily aimed at China, don't forget, they have a feud with the Russians." Lin Wei reminded in a low voice.

This sentence woke up Lao Jiang, Lin Wei was right, Japan did not have a complete strategy for invading China, and they probably did not have the confidence to eat China.

Of course, the long-term goal is definitely to annex China, but whether we have the determination and ability to do so now may not be.

He also had to deal with the threat from Russia in the north.

Lin Wei was reminding Lao Jiang to reveal the news to the Russians, and when the Russians heard the news, they would definitely not be able to sit still.

Russians know this better than anyone else.

"Yu Nong, can you be sure of the accuracy of the information?" Lao Jiang asked.

"It should be possible, this news leaked from within them, and there are some people in Japan who don't want a war with China." Dai Yunong said vaguely.

"We must make sure that the accuracy of the intelligence is accurate, otherwise we will not be able to report it to the Russian side, and there will be jokes if we don't get it right." Old Jiang Dao.

"I don't think it's necessary, the Russians should have known about this earlier than we did!" Dai Yunong smiled bitterly.

Hearing this, Lao Jiang still didn't understand that eighty percent of this information was passed on from there, and people may have known it for a long time, but they didn't tell you, but maybe they didn't determine the authenticity of the information, and they didn't dare to report it rashly.

However, people have also reminded you through other channels that as for the accuracy of the information, it can be verified through other channels, which is actually not difficult.
