General Takeda, commander of the 108th Brigade of the 71st Division, was organizing his troops to accelerate the attack on the outer line of the Western Route Army holding on to Yongji, but he could not effectively advance forward, and the troops were blocked on the flank of the first line of defense and the second line of defense of the Yongji West Route Army.

Chief of Staff Ono saw that the commander of the Takeda Brigade was very worried about the current battle situation, and not only said: "Takeda-kun, if you want to break through the defense line of the West Route Army on the west line of the Nakajo Mountain as soon as possible, you can only ask the Yuncheng Army Aviation Flight Brigade to bomb the frontline troops in China again. ”

"I also really want to do this, but the 36th Army Aviation Flying Group is currently carrying out frequent bombing missions in the air, and the Imperial Army is attacking the eastern and central lines of Zhongtiao, and needs air support from the Army Aviation Group, and we can't take care of the Western Front at any time, so our army can only rely on its own ground forces to strengthen the offensive and wait for the rapid reinforcement of the 20th Division.

Our army has fought many positions with the West Route Army of China on the western line of Zhongtiao Mountain, and now there is a shortage of weapons and equipment, food, medicine, and important military supplies, and Qinshui, which is an important material transportation base in the rear, is surrounded by the 54th Regiment of the West Route Army and is in danger. ”

The commander of the Takeda Brigade suddenly asked, "Ono-kun, how is the current battle situation of the Oshima squadron reinforcing the Qinshui that Sakamoto is holding?" ”

"Report, Qinshui calls." At this moment, Lieutenant Tanaka, an operations staff officer, walked into the front command headquarters with a telegram to report.

Chief of Staff Ono took the telegram and read it quickly, handed the telegram to the commander of the Takeda Brigade with both hands with excitement on his face, and said: "Takeda-kun, the Oshima squadron and the Sakamoto squadron that is holding on to Qinshui have been caught between the firepower inside and outside the mining area, and the enemy attacking Qinshui has been eliminated. ”

"Roar, Qinshui can be safe and sound, the two squadrons of Oshima and Samoto have made great contributions, and ordered the captains of Oshima and Sakamoto squadrons to immediately send weapons and equipment, food, medicine, and important military supplies to the front line, and there must be no mistake."

Su Xiaoyan received a reply from the commander of the 71st Brigade Takeda Bing Yi Brigade, and immediately quickly deciphered it with Han Nina, and handed over the deciphered message to Lei Yunfeng.

When Lei Yunfeng saw the reply from the commander of the Takeda Brigade, he not only said excitedly: "Commander Wei of the Western Route Army and the 108th Division of the Japanese Army have been fighting fiercely in Yongji for several days, and weapons, ammunition, food, medicine, and important military supplies have not been replenished in time. ”

"Boss, you received a deciphered telegram from the commander of the Takeda Brigade to Oshima and Sakumoto, why did you think of the Western Route Army, do you want to make a fuss based on the content of the telegram? Tell me, what are you going to do next? ”

"Miss Han, the commander of the front-line troops must not only command the battle with tact and bravery, but also attach great importance to the information collected and obtained, especially the intelligence blockade of the next step, and it is not yet time to say it, so you should hold it back first."

"Y-How can you do this to me? Don't you believe in my loyalty to you? ”

"Keeping secrets not only requires consideration of whether a person is loyal, but in order to prevent secrets from being leaked to attract the attention of the enemy, the information on the implementation of the top-secret plan must not be leaked in advance before it is implemented, and this is a major taboo in intelligence work."

Lei Yunfeng said that he immediately drafted a top-secret message, which was sent by Su Xiaoyan himself, and the draft message was destroyed immediately after use.

At this time, Commander Wei, who was standing in front of the combat sand table of the headquarters of the Western Route Army, frowned tightly and kept staging troops on the sand table, when suddenly Chief of Staff Xu Liming rushed in in a rage, and shouted before he entered the door.

"Commander, the 208th Regiment of the 46th Brigade on the flank of the first line of defense of Yongji is holding the Dongyuan position and urgently needs reinforcements, if it can't get reinforcements in time, it will soon be broken through by a Japanese squadron. As soon as the flank positions of the first line of defense are broken through by the enemy, the Japanese army will drive straight into the second line of defense, what do you think? ”

"Dawn, now the battle on the front line of our army is tight, the troops in each position have suffered heavy casualties, and there is no reserve that can send reinforcements." fate

"Commander, now more than a dozen artillery pieces of the enemy are almost simultaneously attacking our Dongyuan position outside Yongji City, carrying out the most fierce artillery strike, and sending nine bombers from Yuncheng to carry out bombing, and now our army's defense line of more than ten kilometers from Yaowen in Zhongtiao Mountain to Yonglezhuang on the bank of the Yellow River is under artillery fire for more than ten kilometers, and the smoke of gunpowder is filled, if we can't ...... it in time."

At this time, the location of the general headquarters of the Western Route Army was set up in Liuguan Village, halfway up the westernmost part of Zhongtiao Mountain, and the terrain was dangerous, so that it could be high and 'the drums and horns under the mountain could be heard', and more importantly, it could overlook the battle situation of the entire Yongji front.

Commanding the battle on the Dongyuan front was the 46th Independent Brigade of the Western Route Army, and since Brigade Commander Kong led his troops across the river to Yongji, he has been sticking to the Dongyuan front line to block the attacking enemy.

At this time, the Dongyuan defense line was fully tightened, and the Japanese army dispatched armored troops to launch the most fierce attack with heavy weapons such as artillery.

Dozens of bombers in the air roared and bombed indiscriminately, tanks roared to open the way in front, followed by Japanese ground troops under the cover of powerful firepower, launched a frantic attack on the front-line positions in Dongyuan.

Chief of Staff Xu Liming said this, how could Commander Wei not know? He didn't wait for Chief of Staff Xu to continue, turned around and said in a tough tone: "Liming, order Deputy Commander Yang of the 102nd Regiment of the 17th Division to report to the 46th Brigade Headquarters immediately." ”

Chief of Staff Xu looked at Commander Wei and shouted: "Commander, you are doing this to put the old bottom of our Western Route Army on the line, the 102nd Regiment is the most capable supplementary regiment of our Western Route Army, and you are actually going to ...... it now." ”

"Liming, now the situation on the Dongyuan front held by the 46th Brigade is precarious, if you don't send the 102nd Regiment up, where do you ask me to draw reinforcements from?"

"Big brother, are you confused, we still have a 54th regiment taken away by this bastard of Lei Yunfeng and tossed around on the outside line, why don't you immediately call the 54th regiment for reinforcements?"

"Why do you still look at Lei Yunfeng like this, don't you know that Lei Yunfeng led the 54th Regiment in order to contain the Japanese 71st Brigade attacking the front line of Dongyuan, and at this time it has surrounded Qinshui, resulting in the military supplies of the Japanese front-line troops not being replenished in time.

In particular, the Oshima squadron that attacked Dongyuan was suddenly transferred to reinforce Qinshui, which not only removed the pressure of a main offensive squadron on our position, but also restrained the Japanese commander from worrying about Qinshui at any time.

If it weren't for Lei Yunfeng's courage to lead the disabled 54th Regiment to contain the enemy on the outside line, our situation might have been even worse, don't you think so? ”

"Commander, do you believe that the message sent by Lei Yunfeng is authentic? Sticking to Qinshui is a squadron of the Japanese army and a fully organized Huang Xiejun security regiment, as well as a variety of pseudo-self-defense forces, with a total strength of seven or eight hundred, with only more than 300 troops of the disabled 54th Regiment, can Qinshui be surrounded without being counterattacked? ”

"Liming, it's true, I don't want to argue with you about Lei Yunfeng, because your prejudice against Lei Yunfeng is too deep, just because he is the supervision captain sent by the Military Command Department of the Accompanying Capital, and his identity is a special agent of the military command, so you have always looked down on him, I hope you don't always look at the problem like this."

"Commander, we are now short of troops, we must immediately transfer back the 54th Regiment taken away by Lei Yunfeng, if this bastard tosses around, then the 54th Regiment is afraid that the final strength will be lost, and even the number will be revoked, that is the Guanzhong Lengwa brother we brought out."

At this moment, Su Peng, director of the Telecommunications Department, walked in quickly and reported: "Report to the commander, chief of staff, and Lei Yunfeng, commander of the 54th Regiment, sent an encrypted emergency telegram. ”

Chief of Staff Xu Liming snatched the telegram, read it and slapped the telegram, shook his head and shouted helplessly: "Commander, look at it, Lei Yunfeng is tossing around blindly on the outside line with the 54th Regiment, this kind of nonsense can be sent even after a telegram, and the ghost believes it." ”
