Li Hong put forward such a tactical suggestion, and he dared to make such a decision after careful consideration.

The security regiment was guarding Madang Fortress, and Okamura Ninji had already changed the direction of the strategic attack, and it was unlikely that the enemy would choose Madang's offensive route.

Besides, Okamura Ningji is not a roundworm in Li Hong's stomach, as long as the intelligence news is not leaked, how can Okamura Ningji, an old devil, know that Li Hong has transferred troops from Madang Fortress?

Even if the little devil knows that Madang Fortress is empty, it will take time for the devil to specify the battle plan, and it will take a lot of time to deploy troops.

If the army of devils really comes to attack the Madang defense line, the remaining defenders of Madang Fortress can also deal with the little devils for a while.

Wu Yuejin and Xue Boling discussed with each other, and finally weighed the pros and cons and agreed to Li Hong's suggestion.

Immediately, Li Hong borrowed the radio station of the headquarters and personally sent a telegram to the security regiment troops guarding the Madang defense line.

After receiving Li Hong's order, the Madang garrison immediately assembled their troops and marched under the stars.

Li Hong didn't mobilize many men and horses, so he transferred a cavalry battalion.

The cavalry battalion carried some heavy weapons and equipment, and then divided into two routes to attack the 101st Division and the 9th Division that harassed the Japanese army.

……

The gunfire in the Wanjialing area never stopped, from night to dawn.

The sky gradually brightened, and the fighting in the Wanjialing Mountains stopped.

Soldiers on both sides fought all night and were tired of each other.

The soldiers fought bloodily on the front line, and as commanders, they were not idle all night, and the commanders of the Japanese army and the national army were mobilizing troops.

As soon as it was daylight, the Japanese troops dispatched their flying units.

"Buzz ......"

The roar of the engines of airplanes resounded in the sky.

Forty or fifty devil planes quickly sailed into the air in the Wanjialing Mountains.

The Devil's aviation unit dispatched bombers, fighters, and transport planes.

The Japanese aircraft formation performed a different mission, one Devil formation reinforced the besieged Devil 106th Division, and another flying formation supported the Japanese 27th Division at Kirin Peak.

The besieged devils of the 106th Division heard the sound of aircraft engines, and looked up at the group of planes flying in the air, and all the devil soldiers showed a sense of excitement.

"Look, our flying unit is coming!!"

"This is our plane, we have saved, onboard, onboard!!"

The Japanese soldiers raised their weapons and shouted at the planes in succession.

Soon, the pilot of the devil's transport plane saw the devil soldiers on the ground, and the crew of the plane began to airdrop various supplies and ammunition to the ground.

While the Devil transport plane was making an airdrop, the enemy's bombers began to bomb the positions of the national army on the outskirts of Wanjialing.

"Buzz ......"

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The sound of the engines of the planes was accompanied by the explosion of aerial bombs.

The battle only stopped for a while, and the two sides fell into a tense battle again.

Explosions and flames spread across the positions, and gunfire rang out one after another.

The Japanese 106th Division, under the cover of aircraft artillery, quickly organized its forces to break through.

Although the Japanese planes and artillery fire were very fierce, it was not so easy for the Japanese troops to break through.

Because, last night Xue Boling adopted Li Hong's suggestion, and he had already sent additional interception troops to the weak point of the national army's encirclement.

The little devils who broke through were still in the dark, and they didn't expect that the weak point of the original national army's defense would become a monolith overnight.

"The infantry charged forward, routed the Shina army in front, and broke out of the siege!!"

The devil commander raised his command knife and loudly ordered the soldiers to charge.

Japanese bombers circled back and forth in the air, and enemy planes dropped a large number of aerial bombs on the positions of the Nationalist troops on the ground.

The devil's plane is indeed very terrifying, but the soldiers of the national army have already built strong fortifications overnight.

Despite the Japanese aircraft and artillery attacks, they were still unable to break the defenders of the blockade line.

The blockade line was reinforced with troops, and the Japanese troops naturally suffered a big loss because of the unknown situation.

The Japanese army organized a breakout force of five or six hundred men, and as soon as they rushed to the vicinity of the blockade line, they were met with a head-on attack by the soldiers of the national army.

Not only did the Japanese army not break through, but they paid a lot of casualties.

Seeing that the Japanese breakout troops could not break out of the blockade line, they immediately retreated.

The national army and the little devil soldiers fought dozens of kilometers around Wanjialing, and Changling, Beixi Street, Zhanggushan, Lion Rock and other places were fighting in an exchange of fire.

With the help of aircraft and artillery, the Japanese troops organized several breakouts, as a result of which the enemy was all repulsed, and the devil soldiers suffered five or six hundred casualties.

After all, the little devils were outnumbered and outnumbered, and fierce battles lasted from early morning until noon.

Several breakthroughs failed, and Miura, the commander of the Devil Division, ordered the troops to temporarily abandon the breakthrough, and he temporarily changed the battle plan.

Miura, an old devil, knew that the national army had changed its troop deployment, so he saw that the casualties of the troops were not small, so he could only avoid its edge to preserve its strength and wait for an opportunity to break through again.

All the devil soldiers retreated to their positions, and the enemy fought with the soldiers of the national army according to the favorable terrain of the positions.

The little devil turned from offense to defense and resisted the attack of the soldiers of the national army.

"Baga, the damned branch soldiers rushed up again, hold their positions!!"

"The soldiers of China rushed up and destroyed them!!"

The little devil soldiers hid in their positions, and they attacked the national soldiers with artillery and machine guns.

The battle was extremely tragic, the soldiers of the national army attacking in front fell, and the soldiers behind stepped on the soldiers of their comrades and continued to rush forward.

"Hurry up and transfer a few machine guns over, there are too many soldiers rushing up!!"

The devil soldiers shouted loudly, and the loaders kept reloading.

"Dada, dada!!"

"Tutu Tu Tu !! Tu

The gunfire was dense without a gap. ，

Bullets flew everywhere, shells exploded everywhere.

Because the little devils occupied the favorable terrain, the national army soon suffered two regiments of casualties.

Xue Boling saw that the front-line offensive troops were frustrated, and in order to achieve a quick victory, he mobilized the 74th Army, the ace unit directly under the Corps.

The 74th Army, known as one of the five ace main forces in the national army, was formed on September 1, 1937 in the Songhu battlefield, composed of the 51st, 57th and 58th divisions, with more than 32,000 people.

All units of the 74th Army are fully staffed, and weapons and equipment and materials have always been given priority to supply, and each division is very well equipped with weapons and equipment.

The reason why the 74 th Army is called a trump card unit is that not only is the quality of officers and men relatively high, but also that each division has 54 heavy machine guns, 274 light machine guns, 243 grenadiers, 16 mountain artillery, field artillery, and howitzers, and 30 mortars and anti-aircraft guns.
