Outside Nanguan County, forty-five kilometers, the headquarters of the 3rd Division.

At this time, the devil's command exploded, and telegrams of battlefield defeat came one after another.

A devil Nakasa, holding a telegram, reported solemnly: "Report to the general, the 5th Brigade was besieged by the Security Regiment and the Sichuan Army, and the reinforcements of our 3rd Division were blocked, and in the end, the brigade commander Kazuo Kimura and all the officers of each department were killed, and the rest of the soldiers were all broken ......"

Fujita Taro, the commander of the Devil Division, was shocked and angry, he couldn't listen to the reports of his subordinates anymore, and he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

"Bagaya Road, don't talk about it, my 5th Brigade, how can it be like this......"

Taro Fujita sat on a stool, his body trembling slightly, he tried to control his anger.

The 5th Brigade is an elite unit, and a brigade can defeat tens of thousands of people in the Central Army.

However, in just a few days, a brigade was completely wiped out by the security regiment, which was simply a great shame for the whole division.

Fujita Taro slammed the table a few times, and said indignantly: "Yaga, the 5th Brigade is so elite, and there is a heavy artillery and armored brigade, it will be defeated so badly, this security regiment is really a devil's army......"

The devil Zhongzuo lowered his head, and then reported: "Report to the general, the security regiment is well-armed, and the offensive weapons are also very advanced, they are equipped with a large number of advanced combat vehicles, as well as the air fire support of fighters. ”

"Baga, where did the security regiment get so many tanks and so many fighters?" Taro Fujita's strength in the security team is really unpredictable.

Chief of Staff of the Devil Osa, walked up to Taro Fujita and said: "Your Excellency, the combat capability of the security regiment is far beyond our imagination, and the combat effectiveness of Li Hong's regiment is even stronger than that of an integrated German division of the Central Army. ”

Fujita Taro stood up and paced a few laps worriedly, thinking about how to deal with the security group and break into Nanguan County.

The security regiment was supported by aircraft in the air, a large number of combat vehicles on the ground, anti-aircraft weapons, and countless artillery pieces of various calibers.

Although there are only a few thousand fighters in the security regiment, the officers and men of the security regiment have extremely high combat qualities and are equipped with such good weapons and equipment.

Now that the 3rd Division has one less brigade, it is equivalent to one less right-hand man, and it will be even more difficult to annihilate the security regiment.

"Itagaki-kun is right, it's easy to shake the mountain, it's really hard to shake the security team!"

Fujita Taro sighed angrily, hating the security team in his heart.

The 3rd Division suffered such a big loss, and Fujita Taro naturally would not give up, on the contrary, he would retaliate fiercely against the security regiment.

As long as Nanguan County is captured, Fujita Taro, an old devil, will definitely wave a butcher's knife and order the slaughter of the city to vent his hatred.

Subsequently, the devil officers of the 3rd Division held a military meeting to study how to attack Nanguan County.

……

Two days later, Nanguan County.

Li Hong's security regiment annihilated the 5th Brigade of the Devils, and such a big military intelligence report spread throughout the entire 5th War Zone.

Knowing that the security regiment had won such a big victory, Li Zongyao, the commander of the theater, was quite pleased, and he was really glad to listen to Xiao Zhuge Bai Wenqing's words and use Li Hong to guard Nanguan County.

The troops of the Security Regiment fought fiercely with the Japanese invaders in Nanguan County for many days, annihilating countless enemies and inflicting heavy losses on the enemy, and also stopping the Japanese army and pinning down a large number of enemies.

The little devils can't break through the barrier of Nanguan County, and the commanders of the Fifth War Zone have more time to deploy and deploy troops in the Xuzhou area.

It can be said that the gains and losses of Nanguan County are completely related to the success or failure of the entire Xuzhou battle.

Li Hong and the 53rd Army of the Sichuan Army received an order to hold on for another five or two days, and as long as the holding time was completed, the Security Regiment and the Sichuan Army could withdraw on their own.

Two days passed quickly, and the garrison of the 3rd Division of the Devils moved forward twenty kilometers, but the enemy did not take any attack.

The Chinese officers and soldiers defending the city and the 3rd Division confronted each other, and the two sides seemed to have reached some kind of consensus and tacit understanding, and the two armies did not commit any offense in the autumn, and neither attacked or invaded the other.

In the past two days, the little devil has not moved, and the enemy seems to be scared by the security group, as if he is like a grandson.

The enemy did not attack, Li Hongke did not secretly rejoice, on the contrary, the enemy would not be willing to defeat like this.

Li Hong understands the combat style of the little devils, the enemy must be engaged in some huge conspiracy, and if the devil's troops do not move, once they attack, it will be a violent storm.

After the reinforcements of the security regiment arrived, Li Hong replenished the more than 1,000 fresh troops to the various battalions.

Since the security regiment arrived in the 5th Theater, it has experienced more than a dozen battles, bloody battles, hard battles, and hard battles, and various battles, accumulating many casualties among officers and men.

Now that the reinforcements of the security regiment have arrived, the number of combat attrition of each battalion and company has just been filled, and with the injection of this batch of new troops, the various departments of the security regiment have resumed their previous complete personnel structure.

With half an armored battalion and a flying squadron, the security regiment can completely stand up to the 3rd Devil Division.

Li Hong replenished the troops of the battalions, and there was no free time for the past two days.

He personally inspected the fortifications inside and outside the city, and personally led the officers and soldiers to strengthen various field fortifications, as well as build air defense fortifications.

In just two days, Li Hong led the officers and soldiers to dig nearly 100 trenches and bunkers inside and outside the city.

In addition to the fortifications, the security regiment arranged several hundred machine-gun fire points, and more than a dozen anti-aircraft fire points, as well as various artillery positions.

In order to guard against the surprise attack of the little devils, Li Hong ordered the flying squadron to be on standby 24 hours a day.

It can be said that under Li Hong's arrangement, the security regiment made all the combat preparations before the battle in advance.

At the same time, the 3rd Brigade of the Devils was also mobilizing troops everywhere to carry out the offensive deployment of Nanguan County.

The enemy did not attack in the past two days because there were not enough planes to attack, so Fujita Taro asked the commander of the Central China Dispatch Army to mobilize a flying team from other battlefields to support.

Don't underestimate a flying team, there are more than 30 aircraft of various types in a flying team of the Japanese army.

It can be said that the combat effectiveness and role played by such air power on the battlefield are very huge.

Soon, it was early morning of the third day.

In order to capture Nanguan County in one fell swoop, this time, the commander of the 3rd Division, Taro Fujita, came to command and supervise the battle.

Taro Fujita stood on the highest point of a high ground, holding a telescope in his hand, looking out at Nanguan Prefecture in the distance.

The telescope's line of sight was filled with morning mist, and the situation in Nanguan County was not very clear.

At this time, a devil Osa hurriedly ran to Taro Fujita to report.

"Your Excellency General, the heavy artillery units have all been put in place, and the attacking troops have all been assembled, ready to attack Nanguan County at any time!"
