"There is an order from the master's seat, and it will be secretly pulled out tonight. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Dai Deputy Brigade Seat, where are we going?"

"Long-winded, you'll know when you get there." Dai Xu's heart was agitated, he was still a little reluctant when he was transferred to the first division of honor, but now he knows how good his opportunity is, if he continues to stay in the Tang Army, although he also has the opportunity to make contributions.

But this opportunity is definitely not as much as in the First Division of Honor, and there are not so many things in the First Division of Honor, and the soldiers are much happier than before.

Now Shangfeng wants to transfer him away, and he doesn't want to leave, although the old chief in the past treats him well, but there is something missing.

Leng Feng, on the other hand, intersected with him as an equal, and also gave him full trust, and he could learn a lot of things that he had never seen before.

Even if he is a deputy brigade commander, it is happier than being a brigade commander before, not to mention, he, the deputy brigade commander, is actually doing the work of a brigade commander.

Shi Tongran is very grateful to Leng Feng, at least, this boss will cherish the lives of his subordinates, and will not let them rush to the most dangerous front line because he is not a descendant.

Although the casualties of the 22nd Division were not small, they were still replenished with soldiers, food and ammunition, and now they still have the opportunity to return to the rear for a temporary rest.

If they are replaced, at this time, they will never be replaced, and this is also a good opportunity for the central army to consume the local army, and the 22nd division will naturally be withdrawn, which is a logical thing.

In this situation, the arms can be too big. legs?

The 22nd Division withdrew overnight, and the position was quiet, and the Japanese troops on the opposite side did not know that more than half of the troops of the Chinese Army that were fighting against them at this moment had withdrawn more than half of their troops.

However, Leng Feng then transferred the three regiments of the new 36th Brigade to temporarily fill the vacancy in the position where the 22nd Division had withdrawn.

The reason why Leng Feng did not wait for the new 40th Brigade to come over and then withdraw the 22nd Division was because Jining could not be without troops for a long time.

Even if the Sichuan Army is in front, once the Japanese army seizes the gap and makes a surprise attack, it will be a joke, the Japanese army's ability to attack in an all-out way may not be enough, but if it focuses on assault, it can still be done.

At the same time, Leng Feng is making troop adjustments, such as the 29th Division and the 74th Division, these two troops, Leng Feng has also been transferred to Luxi, and the original defense areas of these troops are coordinated with the troops of the Fifth Theater to be handed over to the Fifth Theater.

The second is to expand Wu Shaozhou's independent brigade into the 4th Division, which can be regarded as his outstanding contribution to the defense of Jining this time.

Sun Yinting was very grateful to Leng Feng, at least Leng Feng did not deliberately want to weaken the strength of the Third Army, and to some extent took considerable care of the Third Army.

In return for the favor, Sun Yinting's decisions and orders to Leng Feng were all followed.

The relationship between the Honorable 1st Division and the Third Group Army was very harmonious, which was something that many central and local armies could not see.

Leng Feng is an alternative to the Central Army, but he is one of the elites of the Central Army now.

In this crisis that the building is about to collapse, it is necessary to have such a powerful force to turn the tide, so many people endure it silently and endure it very hard.

Luojia Mountain, Jiang Mansion.

"Yan Baichuan sold Leng Feng a batch of ammunition, the amount is amazing, and it can at least maintain the combat yield of an army fighting continuously for a month." Lin Wei whispered.

"I know, Yan Baichuan can't fight, but it's quite good to do business." Old Jiang snorted coldly, obviously very dissatisfied.

"Sir, Yan Baichuan must have hoarded a batch of ammunition and weapons in his hands, why not ......"

"You can pull something out of his hand, and I, the president, will let you do it."

"The first division of honor fights for the country, but needs to be responsible for the supply of ammunition by itself, and this is spreading, I am afraid that it will be detrimental to the reputation of the national government, and it will also cause a lot of conjectures......"

"What do you want to say?"

"Can this batch of ammunition be said to have been replenished by the government for Leng Guoguang?"

"Do you think it's possible for people to spend money and have to leave you a good name?" Old Jiang Du felt that this was a bit whimsical.

"How do you know if you can't do it if you don't try?"

"What Wei Wen said is reasonable, at this time, we should focus on the overall situation of the country and the nation, rather than caring about personal interests, besides, this is no loss for Leng Guoguang?"

"No loss?" Lao Jiang snorted coldly, this loss is big, once it is a fact, it will not be possible to change his words in the future, and at that time, everyone will think that Leng Feng is an ungrateful and shameless person.

And the government stole this credit, and then threatened its own deployment in turn, although politics is dirty, but if it is really to do this, then someone needs to bear the loss.

"That ......"

"Try it and see how he reacts." Lao Jiang finally decided.

"What does Chairman Chiang mean by this, how did the ammunition supplies we paid for become their government, although they still allocated it to us in the end, but what will other troops think, he is trying to isolate us?"

"yes, what kind of intention is this?"

"This is not a telegraphic order from the chairman, it was sent from the second chamber of the chamber, you see, here is the words of the second chamber secretary."

"That represents Chen Bulei, it should be Lao Jiang's approval, and it should be a test of my reaction." Leng Feng had a gloomy face, and Lao Jiang was becoming more and more shameless.

said a basket of good words, said a sword, dug pits for him everywhere, and did everything.

"Then we're going to be willing to suffer this dumb loss?"

"Since he wants fame, then give it to him, anyway, we haven't paid the balance yet, let Yan Baichuan find him to go." Leng Feng said, "Call Yan Baichuan back, just say that I will definitely give him the final payment, but I have to delay some time, let him ask Mr. Jiang for it first, and send the original text of this telegram to Yan Baichuan word for word." ”

"The master is smart!"

"Gao Ming, if I had a way, I wouldn't have made this decision, it depends on whether Yan Baichuan dares to sing against Lao Jiang." Leng Feng said, "If he doesn't help, in the future, we won't have to take care of his business, but for now, we still have to endure it." ”

It's tiring enough to fight with the little devils, and you have to beware of these old things calculating, Leng Feng really feels a little tired, none of the big people in the Republic of China are good at stubble.

Pottery frontier.

"Master, today the little devils seem to have eaten spring collectively. Medicine, the fight was particularly fierce, and several charges were launched, and even the tanks that ran out of fuel were driven out of the city, and the fire was so fierce that we couldn't even raise our heads......"

On the phone, Zhu Yaming, deputy commander of the First Brigade, made an urgent report.

"Zhu Yaming, you stabilize it for me, it doesn't matter if the position is lost, we can take it back, we must figure out the enemy's purpose, understand?"

"Understood, Master!"

"Division, the 20th Division of the Third Army is in an emergency, early this morning, the Japanese army in Xicheng rushed out under the cover of two tanks, the 20th Division was caught off guard, and was broken open by the Japanese army, the Japanese army is frantically expanding the occupied area, and launching a fierce assault on our position, our department suffered heavy casualties, and is turning in the direction of Jiaozhuang."

"Please ask Deputy Division Commander He to immediately deploy defenses on the front line of Jiaozhuang, block the Japanese army, and be sure to intercept the Japanese army in Jiaozhuang!"

"Yes!"

"The Japanese army in Dingtao City must have changed its commander, otherwise it would not have come to such a 180-degree turn." Qin Yankun said silently smoking a cigarette.

"Well, the contrast between the front and back is too great, either the commander has changed, or Kenji Dohihara has changed his temperament, there are only two possibilities." Luo Yufeng gritted his teeth and said.

"Could it be that there has been a change in the top level of the Japanese army, and Kenji Dohihara has been unwilling to go south, and now this formation seems to be going south?" Qin Yankun analyzed.

"It's possible, such a style of play really wants to give us a huge surprise."

"Report the situation to Kunimitsu, at this time, only he can analyze what the Japanese army wants to do." Luo Yufeng let out a long breath and said.

Leng Feng was also surprised when he received Luo Yufeng's telegram, with his understanding of Kenji Dohihara, he endured it until this time, either endure it, or burst out all at once.

But what does it mean to come out like this?

Is it deliberately thrown to attract firepower?

This is possible, Leng Feng frowned deeply, Luo Yufeng's judgment was that the Japanese army in Dingtao had changed its commander, otherwise there would not have been such an extreme change.

But it could also be that Kenji Dohihara gave a different order.

In Leng Feng's view, the latter is very likely, no matter how powerful the intelligence work is, it is impossible to reach the heart of the Japanese army, and there is still a difference between the Japanese and the Chinese.

"Shizuo, the witch office is urgent, Kazuki Kiyoji has been removed from his post and transferred back to Tokyo for questioning, and the new commander of the First Army is Lieutenant General Umezu Mijiro."

"Umezu Mijiro, the same Umezu Mijiro who signed the Ho-Mei Agreement?" Leng Feng's eyes widened in surprise and asked, Umezu succeeded Kazuki This has long existed in history, but now due to his appearance, the trajectory of many people's fates has changed.

"Where's Kenji Tsuchihara?"

"Didn't say, there should be no change."

"Kazuki Kiyoji and Terauchi Shou disagreed early on, and it was a matter of time before he was transferred, this time he just found a reasonable excuse, and Umezu Mijiro was one of the driving forces behind the September 18 incident, and he knew China very well, and he was also a difficult person to deal with." Leng Feng said.

"Report, the heavy artillery regiment is in place!"

"The armored brigade is in place!"

"Very good, inform Zhang Zhongling, start early tomorrow morning." Leng Feng excitedly snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, and finally waited, no matter what kind of moth Kenji Dohihara had, he didn't need to scruple anymore.

Now, the time is ripe.

"Yes!"

At about the same time, Caozhou, the headquarters of the 14th Division, Kenji Dohihara made a strong spirit and summoned his cronies and subordinates together to hold a secret military meeting.

Chief of Staff Tadashi Sano gave a rough introduction to the situation of the 14th Division, in addition to the rolling Yellow River on his side, the 14th Division was already densely surrounded by Chinese troops, numbering as many as tens of thousands.

"To the south, south to the Longhai line, we have no chance of winning, to the east, the elite of the Chinese army's Honor 1st Division and the new 38th Division, in that case, we will fall into a bitter battle, and the final result is only the second Taierzhuang, so these two roads are the most dangerous for our army."

"Division commander, go south to the Longhai line, we are completely capable!"

"We have the ability, but we may not be able to hold it, may I ask, even if we occupy Guide, what's the point, can we hold these hundreds of kilometers of defense line?"

"This ......"

"What's the use of cutting off the Longhai line, it can't stop the retreat of the Chinese army at all." Kenji Dohihara solemnly explained, "And the information we have received is that the Chinese army in the Xuzhou area has already begun to withdraw in an orderly manner, and they are already planning to abandon Xuzhou, and we cut off the Longhai line, so they have the opportunity to evacuate by water, and at that time, not only will we not get any supplies, but we will also be encircled." ”

"We still have friendly ......"

"Friendly forces, they have the ability to fight and say, in my opinion, if they want to break through the defense line of the Chinese army, it will take some time, although the Chinese army retreating from Xuzhou is a tired division, but it is also a victorious division." The road of the earth and the land is heavy.

Li Delin categorically gave up Xuzhou this time, and the impact of the cold front was not small, and Li Delin did not blindly give up in the process of retreating, and also formulated a strike plan for the Japanese army attacking from the Huainan area.

The retreating troops did not blindly run away, but in the process of retreating, they blocked and attacked the Central China Front attacking the Xuzhou area.

In the past two days, troops withdrawn from the Xuzhou area have joined the southern battlefield of Xuzhou, and the offensive of the Japanese army in Central China has been contained, and even counterattacks have recaptured some lost territory.

In this way, the life passage of the Longhai railway line is also relatively safer.

With the decisive and orderly abandonment of the Xuzhou area by the Chinese side, although the Japanese army was pressing forward in the Xuzhou area, it was inferior in other battlefields.

The offensive of several Japanese troops on the southern line of the Jinpu Road was bent, and the nearest Yongcheng, the Ushijima Manchu detachment of the Japanese Sixth Division fought fiercely with our defenders for more than ten days, but still failed to overcome.

The Japanese suffered at least 2,000 casualties at Yongseong, and under the harassment and attacks of the guerrillas, the Japanese army had difficulty supplying ammunition.

The wounds inflicted on the Japanese army by the 1st Division of Honor in Nanjing were too great, not only causing the Japanese army to lose tens of thousands of its most elite soldiers and horses, but also seriously demolishing their spirit.

The newly replenished soldiers are significantly inferior to the previous veterans in terms of combat effectiveness and will to fight.

There was a marked decline in the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army in Central China.

Under the situation of eliminating the advantages of the other, it is very difficult for the Japanese army to make a breakthrough in the short term, and Kenji Dohihara is a very shrewd person, so he will not believe Takahashi Hiroshi's words.

If he really believed in Takahashi Hiroshi, he would be a spearman for Shunroku Hata, and if he went south, it would be equivalent to helping the Japanese army in Central China contain most of the elite of the Chinese army withdrawn from Xuzhou.

This naturally relieved the frontal pressure of the Japanese army in Central China, and they were able to find an opportunity to break through, so as to occupy Xuzhou first.

In the Battle of Xuzhou, even if the empire finally occupied Xuzhou and won the victory on the surface, it was actually defeated in its bones.

Now that the defeat is decided, Kenji Dohihara certainly doesn't want to go on this trip to the troubled waters, he still wants to try to save some of the defeats, but he fails.

Now, he had to find another way, and he had to think about the next battle.
