After thinking carefully for a while, Okamura Ninji couldn't figure out the tactics of the security group.

However, Li Hong is a cunning opponent and can't figure out what tactics to play.

Okamura Ninji retracted his thoughts and said to Miura Kaitaro: "Commander of the Miura Division, your division has suffered many setbacks and casualties, and the fighting spirit of the imperial soldiers has also been affected, so it is not suitable to fight again, you immediately notify all departments to evacuate the station and withdraw your troops to rest!" ”

"But, Commander......"

"Yaga, carry out the order!"

"Hayi!" Miura Kaitaro replied unwillingly.

After receiving the order to retreat, the entire army of the 106th Division of the Devil began to withdraw from the station.

……

Two days later, follow-up reinforcements from the Security Corps arrived.

Chen Xiuping returned to the headquarters to meet with President Jiang, and he told him everything about the battle situation on the front line, and asked for credit for Li Hong and the officers and soldiers of the security regiment in person.

Chen Xiuping chatted with President Jiang for more than two hours about guarding the Madang Fortress and the defense of the Nanshan position, and finally, he suggested to President Jiang that Li Hong's security regiment should guard it.

The fortress has been lost once, and the 9th Theater of the National Army is very passive, so Principal Jiang considered the importance of the fortress and agreed to the security regiment to guard the Madang Fortress.

On the day of receiving the order, the Nationalist troops guarding the Madang Fortress withdrew from their positions, and they handed over the fortified positions to the Security Corps.

After taking over Madang Fortress, Li Hong summoned the commanders of each battalion to redeploy the defensive deployment.

Nanshan is the front station of Madang Fortress, and the position is also very important, if the Nanshan position is not guaranteed, the enemy's firepower can directly threaten the Daomadang defense line.

Thinking of this, Li Hong arranged for the second and third battalions to defend the Nanshan position, and also added an 88-mm anti-aircraft artillery company, as well as heavy artillery units.

The second and third battalions are super reinforced battalions, with more than 3,000 combat troops, strong fortifications and sufficient firepower, the Nanshan position can be described as impregnable.

Li Hong also sent two battalions to defend the Madang defensive line, a cavalry battalion and an independent battalion to guard.

Needless to say, the fortification of the position of Madang Fortress is so strong that even the devil's naval guns and aerial bombs are difficult to destroy the permanent fortifications.

The Madang defense line is the most important offensive target of the Japanese 11th Army, however, with the security regiment blocking the front of the devils, I am afraid that the 11th Army of the devils will not be able to overcome the defense line in a short time.

Jiangbei Town, Headquarters of the Security Corps.

Since the withdrawal of the 106th Division of the Devils, the Japanese army has not launched an offensive.

Although there has been no fighting in the past two days, Li Hong and the old devil of Gangcun have not been idle.

Both sides will send several reconnaissance planes during the day to reconnoiter and grasp each other's movements.

The strangest thing is that the devil's air force unit comes to reconnoiter several times a day in batches, but there is no target for attack.

"Buzz ......"

There was a roar of airplane engines in the air.

Several reconnaissance planes sprayed with the Japanese national logo broke free from the clouds and hovered over the headquarters of the security regiment.

Li Hong held a telescope and observed the Japanese planes in the sky.

"Brother-in-law, this little devil's plane comes out to reconnoiter several times a day, but he doesn't see the enemy attacking, what does this enemy want to do?" Chen Lin asked Li Hong next to him in confusion.

"You ask me, who do I ask?" Li Hong put down the binoculars and glanced at Chen Lin: "My little brother-in-law, why don't you go and ask the old devil in Okamura what tricks he plays for his brother-in-law?" ”

"......" Chen Lin scratched his head speechlessly.

Li Hong observed the enemy planes in the air, thought about it for a while, and then returned to the command headquarters in confusion.

The most incomprehensible thing is that there has been no military operation in the entire 11th Army of the devil in the past two days.

Based on Li Hong's understanding of Okamura Ningji, this old fox is a militant, and the 106th Division of the Japanese Army has suffered a big loss, and it is impossible for the old devil of Okamura not to retaliate.

Moreover, since the Japanese 11th Army captured Anqing, the devil's troops have been unable to advance in successive defeats, and the Central China Dispatch Army Headquarters will definitely put pressure on the old devils in Okamura.

Therefore, according to common sense, even if the Japanese 11th Army would not attack Madang Fortress so quickly, it would have frequently mobilized troops.

The enemy has not shown signs of attacking for a long time, what tricks does this old devil in Gangcun play?

After Li Hong returned to the command headquarters, Okamura, an old devil, was still not at ease, and then he personally made a phone call to the flight team and ordered the flight unit to send a number of reconnaissance planes to pay close attention to the movements of the 11th Army of the devil.

Li Hong was idle, so he had to stay in the headquarters and carry out sand table map operations alone.

Half an hour later, the defenders outside the garrison called.

After listening to the phone call, the communications soldier reported to Li Hong: "There are a few reporters accompanying the army outside the station. ”

Li Hong asked strangely, "What are they doing here?" ”

The signal corpsman replied: "Tuanzao, they have come to make a documentary on the officers and men of our regiment on the order of the war zone, and some reporters have asked for an interview to meet you......

Li Hong knocked his head and said to Zhou Wenxun, the commander of the fifth battalion: "Old Zhou, if the reporters want to make a documentary, you will cooperate with them to shoot it, but what is forbidden to shoot is resolutely not allowed to be filmed." ”

"Yes, Tuanza, I understand my humble duties!" Zhou Wenxun gave a military salute and left the headquarters.

At this time, the communications soldier reminded Li Hong again: "Tuanzao, is there a reporter outside who wants to meet?" ”

"The reporters disappeared, and they said that I had gone to the front line to inspect and asked them to interview other commanders."

In accordance with Li Hong's instructions, the signal soldier picked up the phone and re-called the defenders outside the station.

Li Hong stared at the map, smoking a cigarette irritably.

About another twenty minutes later, a soldier from outside the command ran in.

"Report to the group, there are two reporters outside the headquarters who want to see you."

Li Hong frowned, and said angrily: "Without Lao Tzu's order, who led the reporter to the headquarters?" Didn't Lao Tzu say it, just say that Lao Tzu is busy......"

Before Li Hong's words were finished, two uninvited female reporters walked straight to the door of the headquarters.

Of the two female reporters who came, one was Ouyang Jinglan, and the other was a blonde and blue-eyed foreign girl.

"Yo, Grand Master Li has been valued by the chairman, and his temper has also become bigger, and old friends have come to see you, and you have avoided it?" Ouyang Jinglan said jokingly to Li Hong.

When Li Hong heard Ouyang Jinglan's voice, he immediately turned around and looked at the two people in front of him with a surprised expression.

Foreign female reporter Anna counted Li Hong: "Captain Li, we are friends, you turn us away like this, this is not your Chinese hospitality!" ”

Li Hong saw that it was them, a little smile appeared on his face, and he said curtly: "Miss Anna, Miss Ouyang is really sorry, I really don't know if it's the two of you, it's slack, it's ...... slack."

Li Hong said apologetically, shook hands with the two of them amicably, and then invited them into his headquarters.
