The next day, Ross Field brought good news.

His family had fully agreed to Yang Jing's request and had already begun recruiting skilled workers and engineers for Yang Jing in the country.

Then, Yang Jing made a list of the materials that the Tiger Ben Regiment needed now.

Ross Field only glanced at it, then directly agreed, and left happily.

In the afternoon, this foreign devil came to the door again in a hurry, and said to Yang Jing with an excited face: "Head Yang, the family has passed the review, and the cargo ship will soon set sail from the mainland of the United States and sail to the Indian Ocean according to your requirements."

It is expected to be available in two months!

In the next two months, you will be able to deliver people, equipment, and supplies to your base!

In the meantime, though, I think you should have to set up a base as soon as possible! ”

"Hmmm! It's nature! ”

Yang Jing nodded with great satisfaction, and at the same time did not forget to instruct: "Please pay attention to confidentiality in your family, and don't let more people know the specific content of our transaction, especially the national government!" ”

Although Yang Jing thinks that the old man and the high-level bigwigs of the national government should not dare to offend the rice country guys at this time.

But I am not afraid of 10,000 in everything, but I am afraid of what happens.

I'm afraid that they won't dare to do it openly, and they will come to the shade behind their backs.

Especially Boss Dai and his military commanders are experts in this industry.

Therefore, the safest thing is not to let them know about this matter, so as to ensure that the equipment and materials and technicians can successfully arrive at the base of the Tiger Bentuan.

Ross Field naturally responded to Yang Jing's request for everything, and immediately agreed.

…………

Two more days have passed.

Rose Field and Elena left Xuzhou City in the grand farewell ceremony held for them by Li Delin, Bai Jiansheng and others.

The Tiger Ben Regiment is in full swing of training again.

Five days later, Yang Jing received a telegram from the headquarters of the war zone and hurried to the city by car.

Preparation Room of the Theater Commander's Department.

A communications staff officer was reporting various battle reports from the front line to Li Delin and Bai Jiansheng, who were solemn and worried, as well as to a group of senior operational staff officers.

"Report!"

At this moment, a loud voice at the door interrupted the communications staff officer's report.

Everyone subconsciously turned their heads and found that it was Yang Jing.

Bai Jiansheng hurriedly spoke: "Advisor Yang, you came just in time, come in quickly." ”

Yang Jing strode into the preparation room, saluted Li Delin and Bai Jiansheng, and asked, "I don't know if you commanders have asked the lowly post to come, what kind of dispatch do you have?" ”

Bai Jiansheng said: "Here's the thing, the situation is really as you expected, Advisor Yang, the Japanese army in Central China is moving north, and now it has launched a fierce attack on our Huai River defense line!"

Especially Bengbu and Linhuai Pass, they were attacked by the elite main force of the Japanese army! ”

Bai Jiansheng spoke as quickly as he could, giving a general account of the current situation and the battle situation on the front line.

Among them, the Bengbu area is guarded by the 21st Army and the 1st Army, which are temporarily worry-free, while Linhuai Pass is only guarded by the 31st Army.

They were facing the Japanese 3rd Division, so the situation was extremely unoptimistic. ”

Li Delin followed up and said: "The most important thing now is not that the 31st Army cannot resist the attack of the Japanese 3rd Division, but that the rest of the army is very tight, so that we have no troops to send.

The strategic position of Linhuai Pass, Consultant Yang, you know, has been a strategic place for soldiers to fight for since ancient times.

Once Linhuai Pass is captured, the entire Huaihe defense line will be completely defeated!

At that time, the north-south advance of the Japanese army in Central China and the Japanese army in North China will be completed, and hundreds of thousands of officers and men in our entire Fifth Theater will probably be encircled by the Japanese army. ”

How could Yang Jing not understand the meaning of Bai Jiansheng and Li Delin's words, and his feelings were that he wanted his Tiger Ben Regiment to act as a firefighting team and go to Linhuai Pass to help the 31st Army.

However, the recruits of the Tiger Ben Regiment have been training for almost half a month, and it is time to pull them out for actual combat exercises.

In addition, with the assistance of the 31st Army, there was only a Japanese 3rd Division, and he really didn't pay too much attention to it.

Especially at this time, the Tiger Regiment has not only been strengthened in terms of strength, but also expanded a lot in the direction of weapons and equipment.

The Krupp 105mm caliber field gun that broke out earlier was also equipped with the artillery battalion.

At that moment, Yang Jing took the initiative to ask: "Chiefs, if you can trust your humble position, you are willing to lead the Tiger Ben Regiment to help Linhuai Pass!" ”

Li Delin was overjoyed and said: "This is really good! With Advisor Yang personally leading the Tiger Ben Regiment to help, it will be possible to ensure that everything is safe in the Linhuai Pass defense line!

I am here to represent the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Fifth War Zone, thank you! ”

As he spoke, Li Delin actually bowed to Yang Jing.

In fact, he has no choice, otherwise, unless he has to do so, how can he play the trump card of the Tiger Bentuan.

Yang Jing was flattered, and said busily: "Sir, as a soldier, you should fight for the country and the people, these are all things that are within the scope of your duties!"

Therefore, the gratitude of the chief, I am really ashamed to be humble! ”

Then, Bai Jiansheng said: "Advisor Yang, I don't know what you think about the next battle situation, you might as well talk about it." ”

Yang Jing held a baton, pointed to the combat map, and said: "For the time being, the threat of the northern section of the Jinpu railway line is not to worry about for the time being.

What we need to guard against is that the Japanese army will increase its troops from Lianyungang and cooperate with the 114th Division to continue to advance westward along the Longhai railway line and raid Xuzhou. ”

Bai Jiansheng nodded approvingly.

Yang Jing said: "In addition, we also need to be especially vigilant against the Japanese army in North China to draw troops, cross the Yellow River south from the Puyang area, attack Lanfeng, and then threaten the safety of our fifth theater from the flank!" ”

Yang Jing's concern is not unreasonable, because historically, it was the 14th Division of Kenji Tu Feiyuan who crossed the Yellow River south in the Puyang area, which broke out the Battle of Lanfeng.

In the end, more than 100,000 troops were defeated by more than 20,000 Japanese troops, which led to the rout of the entire Xuzhou battle.

After the Japanese invaders captured Xuzhou, they continued to advance westward along the Longhai Line.

So much so that Zhengzhou is in danger and Wuhan is shaking!

In order to prevent the Japanese army from advancing westward, the Nationalist Government decided to replace the army with water and ordered the opening of the ferry port on the south bank of the Yellow River, Huayuankou, located 34 miles away from the northern suburbs of Zhengzhou City, Henan Province.

As a result, the Yellow River burst its banks and diverted its course, forming a large area of the Yellow River, which indirectly triggered the tragic 1942 Henan Famine.

Although, with Yang Jing's crossing, the Japanese 14th Division has been almost completely annihilated in the Taierzhuang area, but it is difficult to guarantee that the Japanese army will not send other troops to attack Puyang.

Bai Jiansheng said: "Advisor Yang, regarding your concerns, Chief Li has already reported to the Wuhan side.

And it has attracted great attention from the high command.

The General Headquarters has mobilized heavy troops and strengthened its precautions against the Puyang and Lanfeng areas. ”

Yang Jing nodded: "In this way, we only need to go all out to deal with the enemy on the southern front!" ”

…………

After returning to the station, Yang Jing immediately notified the officers at and above the battalion level to hold an emergency military meeting at the regimental headquarters.

Inform them that they are about to rush to Linhuaiguan and get them ready.

The next morning, before the start of the promotion, Yang Jing held a swearing-in meeting for the whole regiment.

More than 10,000 officers and men of the Huben Regiment were fully armed and stood on the huge training grounds, lined up in a neat phalanx with battalions and companies as units.

Yang Jing's expression was cold and handsome, standing on the high platform like a javelin, he was holding a high-power loudspeaker in his hand, and after scanning the circle with sharp eyes, he said loudly: "Brothers, the little devil wolf is ambitious, and the heart of China will not die."

Although the crisis in the north has been resolved, the Japanese army in Central China has marched northward in a vain attempt to form a north-south offensive with the Japanese army in North China and annihilate our Fifth Theater in one fell swoop!

Today's Huaihe defense line, Linhuai Pass is in an emergency, I have received an order from the Theater Commander's Department, and I will lead you south to help Linhuai Pass today!

In order to ensure the integrity of our Huai River defense line and the safety of hundreds of thousands of our brother troops in the Fifth War Zone! ”

The officers and soldiers present lined up in a strict line, listening carefully to Yang Jing's words, and their faces were solemn one by one, revealing a majestic momentum from top to bottom.

Especially those veterans who have survived bloody battles, they unconsciously exude a solemn atmosphere.

"Since the establishment of our world's No. 1 Tiger Regiment, more than 10,000 soldiers have been sacrificed.

This time, the battlefield is cruel, and the bullets don't have long eyes, so casualties are inevitable! You, including me, could die at any time and bury your bones elsewhere!

My sons and daughters of the Tiger Regiment, are you afraid? ”

"Tiger Bentuan, sword mountain and sea of fire, fearless! Kill, kill, kill! ——”

"The Tiger Ben Regiment is invincible and invincible! Kill, kill, kill! ——”

"Tiger group, wipe out the enemy, and restore my mountains and rivers! Kill, kill, kill! ——”

Tens of thousands of soldiers had the same slogan, their morale was high, and their momentum shook the sky like a group of tigers and wolves ready to fight.

The current Tiger Ben Regiment has long been a world-famous heroic army, an elite division, and more than 40% of the veterans as the backbone.

So, there is no need to talk too much nonsense to boost morale.

"Excellent! Sure enough, it is worthy of me Yang Jing and my soldiers of the Tiger Regiment! ”

"Now, all of them are there, the troops are out, rush to Linhuai Pass, kill the dog-day Fujita Jin, and annihilate the 3rd Division of the Japanese Army!"

Yang Jing waved his big hand vigorously and shouted loudly.

Hearing the order to set off, tens of thousands of soldiers of the Tiger Regiment boarded the military trucks one after another in a company and platoon, with the fastest speed and vigorous posture.

There were also soldiers who lined up behind the convoy.

Wait for a certain distance to be traveled, and then exchange with the crew in the car.

After all, the national strength of the national government is limited, and although the Tiger Ben Regiment is highly used and appreciated by the old man, it is only equipped with nearly 100 military trucks.

Coupled with the seizures of the Tiger Ben Regiment and the explosion of Yang Jing's killing of devils, there are only less than 200 vehicles in total.

If it is an ordinary regiment-level unit, 200 military trucks are naturally enough, but the Tiger Ben Regiment is nominally a regiment, and its total strength has exceeded 10,000 people, which is almost a division-level unit.

What's more, in addition to personnel, there are also a large number of baggage materials to pull.

Therefore, these 200 or so military vehicles are actually far from enough.

……

After the soldiers were ready to go, Yang Jing also strode off the high platform, came to the side of a military truck, forcefully opened the door of the military truck, and boarded the passenger seat.

"Boom!"

"Boom, boom—"

The engine of the vehicle was started, and the roar of the vehicle continued in the station of the Tiger Regiment.

Cavalry and reconnaissance companies acted as vanguard troops, driving horses to clear the way in front of the ranks.

Nearly 200 military trucks were loaded with soldiers of the Tiger Regiment, and various artillery pieces were towed behind the vehicles, all of which were covered with camouflage nets.

Soon, the long line of cars drove out of the Tiger Ben Regiment station.

Smoke and dust were rolled up on the road, like a yellow dragon.

……

In order to break through the Huai River defense line as soon as possible, the Japanese 3rd Division led by Fujita Jin, relying on ground artillery and air firepower superiority, repeatedly launched a strong attack on the 31st Army on the north bank of the Huai River.

It is worth mentioning that under the 3rd Division of the Japanese Army, in addition to the 3rd Field Artillery Wing, it is also equipped with a field heavy artillery brigade.

In addition, there are the 1st Flying Wing, the 2nd Flying Wing, and the 7th Flying Wing, all of which belong to the battle sequence of the 3rd Division.

Therefore, the 3rd Division at that time was almost one of the divisions with the strongest combat effectiveness of the Japanese Army.

Although it was defeated by Yao Ziqing's 3rd battalion in the Battle of Baoshan, its combat effectiveness is still unquestionable!

Under the strong offensive of the 3rd Division, under the 31st Army, the 135th, 173rd, and 174th Divisions suffered heavy casualties.

In just a few days, the casualty rate of all units exceeded half.

However, the soldiers of the Gui Army, known as the Wolf Army, did not retreat one by one, showing the will to fight contained in the world.

Especially when they learned that the elite of the Tiger Ben Regiment was invincible and was already on their way to support, their morale was greatly boosted.

On the bank of the Huai River, he fought bloody battles with the 3rd Division of the Japanese Army again and again.

However, despite the best efforts of the officers and men of the 31st Army, in the face of the absolute difference in strength, the 3rd Division of the Japanese Army finally successfully tore through the defense line of the 31st Army and successfully landed on the north bank of the Huai River under the cover of ground artillery and aviation flight troops.

The Huai River is an important line of defense for the defenders of the Fifth War Zone, and once this line of defense is broken through by the Japanese army, the little devils can drive straight into it and directly threaten the important place in Xuzhou!

Therefore, while the 31st Army was guarding the rest of the defensive line, it also organized a large number of troops to launch a counteroffensive in an attempt to recapture the Yaowan defensive line that had been captured by the 68th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army.

That's right, it was the 68th Infantry Wing that was raided by Yang Jing outside Baoshan City, and even the Wing Flag was captured.

Originally, the wing flag was taken away, and the number of the 68th Infantry Wing had been canceled by the Japanese base camp.

However, as the situation of the battle developed, the Japanese base camp took into account the fact that more and more wing flags were captured by the Tiger Bun Regiment, and even included a detachment flag.

In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the divisions and regiments, they had to temporarily restore the numbers of these infantry wings, and warned all units that they could only permanently restore their numbers after the Tiger Regiments had been killed.

……

After two days of non-stop travel, the Tiger Ben group finally successfully arrived at Linhuai Pass.

Yao Bay.

After learning the news that the Tiger Regiment had arrived, the officers and men of the 135th Division of the 31st Army were greatly boosted, and under the personal leadership of the division commander General Su Fufu, they once again launched a fierce attack on the 68th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army, which had a stable foundation.
