The "moving chariot" poured too much effort into Takahashi, at least he himself thought so. However, what a perfect idea it seemed, which once left the defenders helpless, was now broken by a few stones. He didn't know that the stones were thrown by catapults, and he thought they were thrown by the defenders. This is too light, but it shows how stupid his mind is to "move the chariot". Once the "mobile chariot" is broken, the ghost soldiers following behind will become a live target. The defenders' light and heavy machine guns and assault rifles fired a salvo, the devil soldiers fell like straws after the autumn, and a large group of devil soldiers only withdrew less than half of the people after the last, witnessing this scene, Takahashi was so angry that he opened his mouth and shouted, spewed out a mouthful of blood, and then fainted.

The battle report was sent to Yamada, who saw the battle damage numbers on it, and heard that the military card baffle did not work at all, so he was stunned at the time, and only after a long time did he gasp heavily, and ordered: "Tell Captain Takahashi to give up the attack, from now on, they just need to hold the foot of the mountain." Then he pondered the wording and sent a telegram to Okamura Ninji. The telegram briefly explained the battle situation of today's day, and finally asked to abandon the strategy of Xiaogushan and directly attack Penglangji.

Looking at the river, Okamura Ninji received this telegram, and then looked at the secret telegram sent by a staff officer of the 106th Division, the whole person was like a frosted eggplant in the seat, and he didn't move for a long time. After a long time, when a communications staff officer sent a message again, he stood up and walked to the window, looked at the thick night outside the house, and sighed: "Is Ouyang Yun really invincible? ”

In Nanjing, Shunroku Hata is talking on the phone with Mijiro Umezu. Umezu Mijiro told Shunroku Hata on the phone that because the Japanese army had not made any progress in the Battle of Wuhan so far, but had instead buried many troops, His Majesty the Emperor was very angry, and at the instigation of some people in the base camp, he wanted to change the top level of the dispatch army, so he asked him to pay attention. At the end of the call, he specifically mentioned that even in order not to give the base camp an excuse, the imperial army in Anqing should be preserved.

When Shunroku Hata first talked to Umezu Mijiro about the Japanese army in Ankei, he wanted to give up the responsibility of letting Okamura Ninji take on this responsibility. And thinking about it in hindsight, after all, he didn't dare to let the 4,000 Japanese troops go free, so he still made adjustments, and transferred the 109th Division and the 5th Division from several divisions that were being repaired in Nanjing to move westward, hoping to rescue the Japanese troops in this unit. Now that he received the call from Mijiro Umezu, he couldn't help but congratulate himself on his previous decision. After hanging up the phone with Umezu Mijiro, he immediately called the 5th Division, the 109th Division, and the 108th Division under the 2nd Army, asking them to speed up the process and arrive at Anqing within two days.

When Ouyang Yun decided to use troops against Anqing, on the one hand, it was to completely destroy the Second Air Corps of the Japanese Army, and on the other hand, he wanted to bait in a pool of clear water in the north of the river to completely muddy the water. Now, it seems, his strategy is paying off.

The troops of the Cadet Corps in Jiangbei, except for the chariot troops, had three divisions of infantry alone. The infantry of the three divisions plus all the chariot units are a decisive force even if they are placed in the entire cadet army system. Not to mention that it accounts for almost two-thirds of the troops of the Northern Army, it can be said that once this force is in a situation, even if it is only pinned down by the Japanese army, it will affect the final direction of the Madang Campaign. Ouyang Yun's move was certainly able to completely muddy the water in Jiangbei, but at the same time, it also added variables to the Madang defensive battle of the northbound legion. In order to ensure the safety of this main force and let them be a useful fish that can float in troubled waters, as early as the beginning of his journey north, he ordered Changne to let all the fox pupil agents in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River change careers to act as temporary scouts and reconnoiter the enemy situation for the front-line troops. And now, it is the existence of this part-time scout that the activities of the Japanese army in Anhui, Jiangsu, and Hubei are all controlled by the student army. It was precisely because he had mastered the whereabouts of various units of the Japanese army that Ouyang Yun dared to rest assured and boldly let Deng Changyou call for wind and rain and fight in Jiangbei.

Tonight was definitely a sleepless night for the Chinese and Japanese generals surrounding Madang. Not to mention the Japanese army, Okamura Ninji, Yamada Joji, Nakajima Kemura and Yamamuro Sotake, because the battle on the front line is not going well, they must be bothered, wanting to see through the intentions of the student army, so as to seek fighters. On the side of the Xuebing Army, Deng Changyou and the others are also okay, after all, now in Anqing, their troops have an absolute advantage. There are also Madang, Ouyang Yun, Ye Zhao, He Zhengzhen and others in Hukou, but they can't sleep peacefully no matter what.

Madang Fortress, in the general headquarters of the Northbound Legion, Ouyang Yun was holding a cigarette in his hand and was looking down at a telegram. The telegram was sent by Deng Changyou, commander of the Sixth Division, asking for instructions on the next course of action. Unlike the Jiangnan Scholar Army, which was purely defensive, the Jiangbei Scholar Army was mainly attacking during this time, but it was greatly majestic. Not to mention the battle of Dawangmiao, the Xuebing Army had a chariot unit as the vanguard, and the natural enemies of the chariot unit were destroyed by Xiao Yi and them, so the two thousand devils didn't even have the strength to resist, so they were knocked out of the fortifications by the tank guns to accommodate themselves, and then the whole army was wiped out in the shouting and killing of the vast Xuebing.

Immediately afterward, under the unified command of Deng Changyou, the three divisions of Jiangbei marched in unison, with the chariot unit as the forerunner, and successfully surrounded the Japanese army near Anqing Airport. The two sides immediately fought around Anqing Airport, and the Cadet Army fought with the Japanese army for several rounds because of the tank troops used to attack the fortifications, and achieved good results. The living space of the Japanese army was compressed by one-third, and more than one brigade was lost in terms of troops, while the Cadet Army only sacrificed two tanks and one company, which gave Deng Changyou the confidence to completely annihilate the Japanese army in this unit. However, just as he was about to launch a general attack and wipe out the Japanese army in one fell swoop, an agent of the fox pupil sent information that the Japanese reinforcements had arrived.

Shunroku Hata still couldn't sit still, he transferred two divisions from Nanjing, and the 108th division from the 2nd Army, and made a posture of defending the northern part of the Jiangbei team. Now, the 5th Division of the Japanese Army appeared in Lujiang, and at the same time, the 109th Division arrived in Huoshan. On the side of the 2nd Army, the 108th Division withdrew from the Wuhan Strategic Circle and began to move towards Taihu Lake. The emergence of these three new forces of the Japanese army, if Deng Changyou still insists on encircling and annihilating the Japanese army in Anqing, then it is very likely that he will be bitten by the main force of the Japanese army and will not be able to get out. The more than 3,000 devils in Anqing, because they have strong fortifications to rely on and sufficient ammunition and materials, will take a certain amount of time if they want to be completely annihilated. And the length of this time is beyond Deng Changyou's control. Whether or not to take a certain risk to annihilate this Japanese army has become a tangled question, and he didn't dare to make his own decisions, so he handed over the decision to Ouyang Yun.

Today's artillery battle on the Yangtze River and the battle on Cotton Boat Island did not take advantage of the Japanese army. In the artillery battle on the Yangtze River, although the 240-mm shore defense guns of Madang Fort were not put into battle, because the fortifications of the forts were very strong, the Japanese Yangtze River Fleet was unable to obtain substantial results although it had a firepower advantage. The artillery battle between the two sides lasted for more than three hours, and the number of return artillery from the Madang battery remained unabated, but in the end he still did not dare to invest in the main fleet, and he was unable to go further. On the battlefield of Zhousheng, the Japanese army behaved aggressively at first, and Yamamuro Munetake used all the artillery to prepare for artillery fire for a long time, although the frontline position of Shengzhou Village was almost blown into a depression, but it failed to eliminate the vitality of the Xuebing Army. After that, he launched several tentative attacks in succession, but without exception he was repulsed before he could complete the crossing of the river, and in the end he could only suspend the attack, hoping that the Yangtze River Fleet would open the gap first, so that he could use the landing craft of the Yangtze River Fleet to carry out a large-scale landing battle.

Now, Ouyang Yun is actually most concerned about the war in Hukou. Whether Ye Zhao can recover Jiujiang in the shortest possible time and whether he can drive the 106th Division across the river not only involves the safety of Madang's flank, but also involves the next action strategy of the Jiangbei troops. He sent the main force to raid Anqing, not just hoping to muddy the waters in Jiangbei, but expecting the Japanese army to expose a big flaw, so as to turn the Madang defensive battle into a sabotage battle. If we can annihilate a division of the Japanese army like the 74th Army, no, even a brigade, then the final trend of the Hankou Battle will be fundamentally changed.

Taking a deep puff of cigarette, he spit it out, handed the telegram to Chen Shichang, and asked, "Is the torpedo combat group ready?" ”

Chen Shichang shifted his gaze from the telegram, nodded and said, "The young men are high-spirited, just waiting for the commander-in-chief's combat order." ”

"Call back Deng Changyou, Anqing will fight a little and try to meet the 5th Division or the 109th Division. Tell the ruler that they will go to war on these two days. ”

Shi Zhengguo is the leader of the torpedo combat group, drawn from the wolf's teeth.

Chen Shichang nodded, and then went to Huang Hua next to him and informed him about the power generation. Turning back, he looked at Ouyang Yun and said, "Commander-in-chief, it's already more than ten o'clock, do you want to rest first?" ”

"No, I'll wait for Ye Zhao's news!" After Ouyang Yun said this, he leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes, but he only closed his eyes for a few seconds, he remembered something, opened his eyes and looked at Chen Shichang and asked, "Is there any news from Brigade Commander Bai?" ”

Bai Tassel's Seventh Brigade is responsible for the defense of Cotton Boat Island, originally, Ouyang Yun wanted the Eighth Brigade to defend that area, but Bai Tassel insisted. Since the relationship between Ouyang Yun and Chen Jiayao became clear, Bai Tassel has ignored him, but he has become more concerned about Bai Tassel, and it seems that it is difficult to feel at ease if he doesn't ask a few times a day.

This is the commander-in-chief's family affairs, although Chen Shichang looked anxious on the side, it was not easy to say anything, when he asked, he answered honestly: "The battle of Cotton Boat Island is thrilling and dangerous, the Seventh Brigade firmly holds Shengzhou and Zhoutou, and the Japanese army has not been able to successfully cross the river so far." ”

"Okay, let me know as soon as there's anything going on. Okay, you go and rest, tomorrow, we'll be busier! ”
