After the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Nanjing, a large area of China fell into the hands of the enemy, but the Japanese army, which had been driving straight in, also encountered their biggest problem at this time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

That is, China's territory is too large, when its limited forces gathered into an iron fist to defeat the Chinese army in front, but faced with the territory of too large a serious problem of military deployment, and the constantly thriving communist guerrillas used the gap in the battle line to constantly intersperse, constantly breaking the enemy's roads, so that the Japanese invaders did not dare to rashly attack the exhausted Chinese army, with the continuous change of the war situation, the situation of the war turned to Xuzhou!

In 1938, the first Battle of Xuzhou broke out, the commander of the theater Li Zongren took advantage of the arrogant mentality of the Japanese army to resist layer by layer to lure the enemy into depth, and then divided and surrounded the enemy's most elite divisions, the Itagaki Division and the Isogu Division, and surrounded it with superior forces, the Chinese side participated in the battle 290,000 people, and the casualties reached 50,000 people with light and serious injuries, and the two divisions of the Japanese army also lost more than 20,000 people, this battle was the first frontal battlefield victory since the outbreak of the War of Resistance against Japan, which greatly encouraged the people of the whole country.

At this time, the 60th Army, as a special army, had never participated in the Battle of Xuzhou, and Lu Han's repeated requests for combat missions were rejected by Jiang, and they had only one task, that is, to defend Wuhan!

The high-ranking officers of the 60th Army were still carrying out the so-called training of Jiang, and the soldiers were still in the training of German advisers, but they all came from one of the most complete military schools in China at that time, and what the German advisers taught was no different from what they taught in the school, especially after the victory in Taierzhuang, the Yunnan army's desire to fight became stronger and stronger.

Thinking about it, the 60th Army set out from Kunming and walked for more than 40 days to come to the anti-Japanese battlefield, they should go to the battlefield, they should go to fulfill their oath, but there is no slave killing here, only almost the same tactical training day after day, only a long and anxious wait. What made them even more indignant was that Shangfeng's order transferred 150 of their middle and lower-level officers to the Central Army.

You must know that 150 middle and lower-level officers can form a regular army, which is tantamount to a bloodletting for the 60th Army, but this order was caused by Xue Yue's personal request for Long Yun, who will disobey Long Yun's personal order, sure enough, Zhang Songnian and Wang Kuishan, who are the squad leaders, including several old company commanders, were transferred out of the 60th Army.

The 60th Army, which has lost a large number of skeletons, is still stationed in Wuhan, waiting for the opportunity to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and serve the country.

Just three days after the backbone was transferred, Qiao Miao's 60th Army Field Service Regiment also came to the service group after several rounds, and on this day, the 60th Army held a grand welcome ceremony to welcome this rescue angel who also came on foot.

The bored Chen Liang and Lu Hai gathered together, looking at the faces on the stage that were blushing but full of feelings of serving the country, and kept applauding and applauding, and their straight hands hurt until a woman behind the crowd quietly revealed her true face, and Lu Hai's palms couldn't move!

"Why is she here? This can't be"? Lu Hai muttered to himself.

"Who? What can't be"? Chen Liang wondered.

"Qiao Miao, Qiao Miao is also in the service group, just behind the team, you look carefully." Lu Hai stared at Qiao Miao, who had only one side face, and said.

Chen Liang stared at it for a long time before he was shocked: "Oh my God, it's really her, why did I say that this eldest lady is not at home to enjoy happiness, why is she here?" Is she crazy"? Chen Liang was shocked.

It wasn't until the dissolution of this welcome ceremony that Lu Hai and Chen Liang, who had been waiting for a long time, went straight to the camp of the women's service group.

At this time, there were also a few more guards in the women's service group, and when they saw the two of them, they said: "This is the women's service group, what are you doing?"

"Let's find an old friend, could you please inform us"? Lu Haidao.

"Old friends? What old friends? This is a women's service group, and no one can enter without an order!" The guard said sternly.

"If we don't go in, please call us and we'll leave after a few words"! Chen Liang said with a smile.

"Don't worry, we have no bad intentions, you can just report it." Lu Hai said.

"What is it called"?

"Her name is Qiao Miao"! Lu Hai said.

"You guys are waiting here, you look at the two of them"! The guards replied while explaining that the guards around them were afraid that the two would take the opportunity to break into it.

When the guard entered the camp, he went directly to the office of the head of the women's service group, and after a brief speech, the head of the women's group said: "Qiao Miao, we don't have someone named Qiao Miao here!"

"Ah, that means the two people out there are lying, I'm going to go out and blow them away"! The guard spoke.

"No, there is a person named Qiao Miao in our group, I'm going to ask and say, maybe someone used a fake name." The head of the regiment frowned.

After finishing speaking, the head of the regiment went straight to the dormitory of the service group, and Qiao Miao was sitting at the table with a notebook and didn't know what he was writing.

"Qiao Miao, I have something to tell you when you come out"! The head of the regiment spoke.

"Yes"! Qiao Miao got up and said.

Out of the house, Qiao Miao asked, "Commander, what are you looking for me?"

"The guards just said that two soldiers came to find an old friend named Qiao Miao, there is no one in our regiment named Qiao Miao, but you call Qiao Miao, I will confirm whether they recognize the wrong person!" The head of the regiment said.

"They recognized the wrong person, my name is Qiao Miao, and I don't have any friends in the army!" Qiao Miao's face did not change color.

"Why don't you go out and meet them, if it's really your friend?" The head of the regiment spoke.

"No, I really don't know them, if there's nothing to do, I'll go back and get busy." Qiao Miao said.

"In that case, I won't force you, I'll tell the guards that they're far away." The head of the regiment laughed.

"Yes, boom far away"! Qiao Miao puffed up.

A moment later, outside the camp, the guard came out and said, "You don't have Qiao Miao in here, go back."

"How is it possible, the two of us obviously saw it with our own eyes"! Chen Liang was shocked.

"If you say no, you don't have it, this is the women's service group, I'm not welcome if you don't leave"! The guards said to him.

"You...

"Forget it, since she doesn't want to forget it, please tell him and tell her that this is a war zone, pay attention to safety"! After Lu Hai finished speaking, he pulled Chen Liang away.

After the victory in Taierzhuang, the Japanese army, which has always regarded this battle as a great shame, is also frantically drawing troops to take Taierzhuang at all costs, and Jiang, who was inspired by this great victory, is also determined to start a decisive battle with the Japanese army in Xuzhou and win a great victory in Taierzhuang. As a result, both sides were frantically increasing their troops, and the Japanese army transferred 200,000 troops from various regions in central and southern China, and the peak of the troops was directed at Taierzhuang.

Jiang was not far behind, and transferred all the troops that could be mobilized, putting on a posture of wanting a decisive battle with the Japanese army, and the troops not only had the elite Central Army, but also the Sichuan Army, the Gui Army, the Hunan Army and other people, with an army of 700,000!

Each army has its own combat mission, but the 60th Army still has no order, they are still stationed in Wuhan, the officers and soldiers want to fight more and more strongly, but every time they are rejected by Jiang, all the soldiers can only be stationed in Wuhan City, where high-ranking officials and nobles and high-level military and political leaders gather.

In April 1938, the Second Battle of Xuzhou began, and in the face of the elite of the Japanese invaders, our forward troops suffered heavy casualties and urgently needed support, but at this time, the deployment of troops was already stretched, and Li Zongren, the commander of the Fifth Theater, had no troops to send.

Xuzhou, the headquarters of the commander of the theater of operations, the sound of Didi telegram has never been cut off for a moment, outside the headquarters, the rumbling cannon is constantly reminding everyone that the melting pot of this war is still melting fresh lives, Li Zongren is anxious and constantly walking in the command headquarters, Bai Chongxi on the side is also frowning and thinking, the two who originally thought that they were fighting a big victory in Xuzhou are already anxious at the moment.

In just a few days, the front-line troops have suffered heavy casualties in the face of the fierce offensive of the Japanese invaders, Yu Xuezhong and Zhang Zizhong's troops have suffered heavy casualties, if they do not carry out support, they are afraid that they will retreat, if they are broken through by the enemy head-on, then their roundabout troops will not be able to divide and encircle the Japanese invaders who rashly break through, then this large-scale battle will become the Japanese army forcibly break through the layers of defense lines in Xuzhou, and then it will be a thousand miles of rout, and it will be defeated.

"Jiansheng, if we continue like this, the two of us will become sinners of the nation, we have no troops to send, if there is no reinforcement, I am afraid that the whole battle situation will collapse"! Li Zongren said.

"Delin, I have an idea, but you must personally mediate with the chairman of the committee on this matter!" Bai Chongxi said.

"What thoughts"?

"Have you forgotten the origin of our Black Bean Festival"? Bai Chongxi reminded.

"You mean the Sixty Army"? Li Zongren frowned.

"They are Long Yun's old foundation, they sent troops to attack Nanning twice, and their combat effectiveness is the best in the country, if we transfer the 60th Army to reinforce Tang Enbo and Yu Xuezhong's defense line, it should be able to alleviate the crisis!" Bai Chongxi sneered.

"However, the 60th Army is now subordinate to Chen Cheng's Wuhan garrison, and it is not under my disposal, and the chairman of the committee has saved the 60th Army to death, how can we call it?" Li Zongren said.

"Now that the war situation is critical, we no longer have strong reinforcements in our hands, isn't the 60th Army known as a strong force, if it is a mule or a horse, let them pull it out and slip away, you personally call to state the situation of the war, I believe that the chairman of the committee who wants to fight another big victory here will definitely agree"!

Li Zongren frowned, thought about it, and finally picked up the phone on the side, shook it a few times, and said, "Give me the Supreme Command"!
