"The base camp called, ordering the 16th Division to withdraw to the mainland to rest and replenish ......"

"After the 16th Division withdraws to the mainland, who will serve as the garrison in the Nanjing area?"

"The base camp has newly formed a three-unit division, the 15th Division, codenamed 'Smoke Troops', which will set off from the mainland in a few days and come to Nanjing to take over the garrison of the 16th Division in the Nanjing area!" The communications staff officer reported with a blank face.

"Yes, go down!"

"Hay!"

Shunroku Hata called the chief of staff of the 16th Division, Mitsuo Nakazawa, and announced the order of the base camp to him.

What can Nakazawa Sanfu say, when he came, he was full of nearly 30,000 people, and when he went back, only one-tenth was left, if it weren't for the remaining troops in the country, the 16th Division would have become a second-rate or even third-rate division from now on.

"Nakazawa-kun, go back and prepare well, your new division commander, Lieutenant General Keisuke Fujie, he is waiting for you at the headquarters in Kyoto."

"Hay!"

"Take Nakajima-kun's ashes back, the fallen leaves return to the roots, if he knows under the spring, he will definitely bless us to kill Leng Feng of the Shina Army with our own hands and avenge him!" A fierce power surged out of Shunroku Hata's shriveled and thin body through his gaze.

Nakazawa Mitsuo's eyes were red, as the chief of staff of the 16th Division, he was not able to die on the battlefield, but went back as a loser, and he felt that he deserved the most severe punishment.

He didn't complain even if he was ordered to cut himself, but he was surprised that there was no severe punishment in the base camp, and now he had to bring back the remnants of the defeated army. And the ashes of those imperial warriors who died.

Shunroku Hata watched Mio Nakazawa leave with Nakajima's urn in his hands. There was a hint of madness in his eyes.

"General. General Ogizhou Libing telegraphed that he ordered the 7th Infantry Wing to return to Quanjiao from the Bengbu area, and it was expected that it would reach the Quanjiao area within two days and reoccupy the county seat of Quanjiao. ”

"Got it, order the 7th Wing of the 13th Division to reoccupy Quanjiao as quickly as possible and recapture the materials that belong to us." Shunroku Hata ordered.

Without supplies, the situation of the 13th Division would have become extremely difficult. Damn Leng Feng, Pukou, a material transfer station, was occupied by the Chinese Army, which almost cut off more than 80% of the material supply channels of the 13th Division of the Japanese Army.

"Hay!"

There are loopholes in the "strangulation" plan, which must be plugged.

"When will the Sixth Division cross the river and go north?"

"The commander of the Inaba Division reported that he should be given at least a day or two to prepare, his troops had just occupied Xuancheng, the railway was destroyed by the Chinese army, and it was difficult to transport......"

"Yaga, order Shiro Inaba, I'll only give him one day. Early the day after tomorrow, I must cross the river and go north. ”

Pukou, Honorary 1st Division Headquarters. Early in the morning, Qiu Qingquan took people to inspect the river defense fortifications, and the Japanese army did not know that they would land from there along the long river shoreline, so they could not be careless.

Although it is relatively unlikely that the Japanese army will land directly from Pukou, after all, the large and small ships at the Xiaguan Wharf in Nanjing opposite have been dragged to Jiangbei by the 1st Division of Honor.

The 1st Division of Honor also formed a water force, Liu Xinyu's water detachment, although there were only six gunboats and one minesweeper, plus seven or eight armed boats converted from small steamers.

Such a small force is to be majestic in the inland river, but if the Japanese army does not have a warship to escort it, and wants to land at Pukou, I am afraid it will still be a little difficult.

In order to prevent the Japanese army from landing at Pukou, Li Xinyu also laid mines at some suitable landing sites.

This snow, the temperature plummeted, the visibility on the river surface was lower, the Japanese army really wanted to sneak attack, and choosing this time was really looking for death.

"Brother!"

"You girl, why are your hands so cold?" Leng Feng broke a pair of small hands that were frozen like carrots, and said distressedly.

"I knew that brother, you were the most distressed to me." Leng Yue kissed Leng Feng on the cheek very affectionately, smiled and put her hand on the charcoal brazier and baked it.

"Have you eaten?" Leng Feng didn't feel anything unusual, he had already adapted to his brother-sister relationship with Leng Yue.

"No, I came over with Sister Jing early in the morning, and today there is a batch of medicines to be shipped to Jiangpu, so I will stop by to see you." Leng Yue said.

"Then I have to thank you." Leng Feng smiled.

"Of course, brother, Sister Jing will also come in a while, check the wound for that Wu Xiaoyun, and you have to prepare breakfast for two people." Leng Yue pulled Leng Feng's shoulder and said coquettishly.

"Okay, no problem." Leng Feng shook his head and smiled, this girl is a big girl, and she is still so clingy, I don't know how to marry in the future.

However, there is actually no harm in having one more relative, at least there are still people who always think about you and care about you.

"Leng Touer, General Shunroku Hata, commander of the Japanese Central China Dispatch Army, issued a public statement in Nanjing, saying that the people who fled Nanjing are welcome to return to their homes, and the Japanese army will help them repair their houses, rebuild their homes, distribute necessary daily necessities and food, and promise not to harm them."

"Well, this statement of the Japanese is indeed demagogic to a certain extent, and I think the Japanese will set up some examples in the future, and then make some deceptive propaganda, and we must be vigilant in this regard and not lag behind." Leng Feng solemnly reminded, "Old Shen, the Japanese will definitely find a way to let the refugees in Jiangbei know about this statement, so it is impossible to stop it, and the mouth of the people is more important than the defense of Sichuan. ”

"Coldhead, I know what to do." Shen Zhiming nodded, propaganda work, this is his housekeeping skill, how can he let Little Japan be compared?

What's more, those bloody lessons have not been long in coming, as long as the true face of the Japanese is revealed, the people have their own scales in their hearts, and if there is really a person who makes Zhi Ling, there is no way to do it.

Qiu Qingquan and his party came in from outside, shook off the falling snow on their bodies, and removed the cold air from their bodies. This snow falls. It hasn't stopped until now. It's just not as big as the night.

But looking at the trend, it should stop at noon, and the wind is getting tighter and tighter.

"How's the river fortifications?"

"Basically, the requirements are met, the Japanese are thinking of coming over today, and the visibility on the river is only about 100 meters." Qiu Qingquan handed the coat to his orderly soldiers.

"Come on, come and get warm."

"Sister Xiaoyue is here?"

"Hello Master Qiu!"

"It's called Brother Qiu, don't call it the division commander, you are not a soldier under me." Qiu Qingquan laughed. He loves the cold moon very much.

"Brother Qiu!" Leng Yue screamed sweetly.

"That's right." Qiu Qingquan smiled, "Xiaoyue, have you eaten?" ”

"Not yet!"

"Leng Feng, you said that you are an elder brother, and your sister is here, don't you ask?" Qiu Qingquan counted the cold fronts.

"Master's seat, it's been arranged."

"Oh, that's it......"

"Brother, Brother Qiu, where is Cong Hu?" Leng Yue asked.

"Cong Hu. I've sent him on a mission, do you have something to do with him? Leng Feng asked strangely.

"It's fine. I just saw that he had been following you and didn't see him today, so I asked. Leng Yue's face couldn't help but blush.

"Xiaoyue, I have something to talk about with Shizuo, do you want to go to your sister Jing first?"

Leng Yue nodded and went out.

"Leng Feng, your sister is lively and cute, what a good girl."

"My father wants her to marry early, and then marry and teach her children, and live an ordinary life, she is following me so much now, I don't know how to explain it to my father." Leng Feng shook his head and sighed.

"You, don't worry, Leng Yue is a big girl, she has her own ideas, and the road is her own choice." Qiu Qingquan meant something, but Leng Feng didn't seem to be right.

"Well, don't talk about this, the geographical location of Quanjiao is very important, now that we have recovered Quanjiao, the Japanese army will definitely make some moves, I made a bold inference, the Japanese army will directly give up attacking the north bank of the Huai River next, and even the area that has occupied the north bank will also give up, and instead stick to the south bank, build a defense line along the south bank of the Huai River, the focus of the Japanese army's defense of these cities, Bengbu, Fengyang, Linhuaiguan. Minguang, Dingyuan, Chihe and Chuxian, the focus is on several nodes on the south line of Jinpu Road to ensure the safety of this railway line. Leng Feng analyzed at the sand table.

"Give up the attack, this sign has appeared, the Japanese army in Linhuai Pass has stopped crossing the river, and the 114th Division of our 51st Army is facing across the river, the Japanese army in Bengbu about 500 people forced to cross the Huai River, and was repelled by the 113th Division, this change is mainly due to our retreat from Nanjing to the north, the Japanese army was attacked by the enemy, and had to suspend the attack, and turned the spearhead at us."

"In a hurry, it is difficult for the Japanese army to turn around all at once, not to mention, the Japanese army was originally attacking like a rainbow, and suddenly stopped, I am afraid that there are also voices of opposition within them." Leng Feng said.

"Report!"

"The weasel squad has infiltrated Liuhe County, the Japanese army has strengthened the vigilance of Liuhe County, there is probably a squadron of Japanese troops in Liuhe County, although the strength is not much, but the city is strong and well defended, if it is a strong attack, I am afraid it will pay a lot of casualties."

"Got it, let the weasel stay safe, and if it's not necessary, stay silent for the time being." Leng Feng commanded.

"Understood."

"Shizuo, Wei Quan told me just now that we have a number now, and the various departments and organs of the division headquarters can't be like before, after all, we are paid by the national government."

"Well, but we're understaffed right now......"

"Didn't we rescue so many captured officers and soldiers, and some of them are still recuperating from their wounds and have not been incorporated into us?" Leng Feng smiled.

"Digging people?"

"That's right, as long as you keep it voluntarily, what can others say?" Leng Feng said, "Our division is now short of experienced veterans and officers. ”

"Well, it makes sense, let's finalize the personnel list and positions first, as for when we will take office, we will talk about it later, anyway, it won't be a while and a half."

"Shizao and I are in the same place."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and everything was silent.

The plan to dig people is not achieved overnight, you have to take it slowly, you have to go through the long flow, you didn't have to choose before, but now you have to pick, you can't stuff everyone to the honor of the first division.
