When Ouyang Jinglan heard that Li Hong did not accept the appointment, not only did she not feel sorry for Li Hong, but she agreed with Li Hong's decision.

"Head Li, do you know how many people want to get close to the principal and have no chance to climb up, you actually turned down such a good opportunity, I have to say, you are really an alternative."

Ouyang Jinglan raised the corners of her mouth, smiled faintly, and continued: "It seems that Captain Li is indeed a person with great ambitions, in fact, Captain Li, you are doing the right thing, if you accept the appointment, your security regiment will be controlled by others, and the people above will not sit idly by and watch the development of the security regiment too rapidly......

Li Hong said with a sneer: "Miss Ouyang, you are not a senior agent of the military command, and I can't hide anything from you." ”

Suddenly, Ouyang Jinglan's expression changed: "It seems that Head Li already knows my true identity, so please ask Head Li to keep it a secret." ”

"Don't worry, Miss Ouyang, there are some things that you and I just need to know, besides, you and I are also for the country, and I will keep it a secret."

"Head Li, let's talk about something else." Ouyang Jinglan diverted the topic, gossip asked Li Hong curiously: "Head Li, how are you and that Miss Chen?" Tell me about the romance between you. ”

Whether it's a highly trained female agent or an ordinary woman, as long as it's a woman, she likes to know some gossip news.

"Miss Ouyang, now that the whole country is fighting the war, as a soldier, where do you have the time to talk about your children's personal affairs."

Li Hong smiled bitterly and continued: "Since we were transferred to the Fifth War Zone, we haven't met yet, but occasionally there will be some telegram and letter exchanges......

The two chatted speculatively in the room, chatting about gossip news, and talking about the current military situation of the Taierzhuang Campaign.

……

A few days later.

The theater command developed the photo materials brought back by Ouyang Jinglan.

As soon as the photos were developed, the theater exposed the true face of the massacre and use of poison gas bombs by the Japanese army through major news media.

In the past, after the Japanese army carried out a massacre, they would destroy the corpses and destroy the traces to cover it up, and without evidence, the devil would not admit that there had been a massacre.

However, now that there is a picture and the truth, it is difficult for the Japanese army who committed heinous crimes to deny it, and the Japanese army has been pushed to the forefront and has become a brutal force that has been criticized by the international community.

In addition to exposing the cruelty of the Japanese army, the rescued press corps also jointly issued a statement of protest, demanding that the international organization severely punish the Japanese commanders who ordered the massacre.

After all, paper could not contain the fire, and after the Japanese army's massacre was exposed, this incident alarmed the Japanese base camp.

In order to avoid the expansion of the matter, the Japanese army base camp could only abandon the car to protect the commander, and finally decided to remove some Japanese generals related to the massacre, and in the short term, the Japanese army also relented.

The photographs brought back by Ouyang Jinglan were very important, and through the materials, the Theater Command learned about the next offensive movement of the Central China Dispatch Army.

Originally, the Central China Dispatch Army of the Japanese Army planned to send troops to attack Taierzhuang and even Xuzhou, but on the surface of the current information, the Central China Dispatch Army changed the direction of offensive operations.

Knowing that the Japanese army dispatched troops to Central China and would not increase troops to approach Xuzhou in a short time, the theater commanders Li Zongyao and Bai Wenqing could be said to have taken a reassuring pill.

Previously, the commanders of the theater had always been worried that if the troops of the national army and the three divisions on the periphery of Taierzhuang fought, if the Japanese army from Central China took the opportunity to come, then the 5th theater would inevitably be defeated.

If the three divisions of the Japanese army attacking Taierzhuang have no backup troops, then the commanders of the theater can let go of their hands to fight this encirclement and annihilation battle......

The battle was in full swing, the front line of Taierzhuang.

The 183rd Regiment and the 187th Regiment of the National Army fought fiercely with the vanguard of the 10th Division of the Japanese Army for several days.

The vanguard of the Japanese army was the 10th Wing of the 39th Division, and the wing commander was Kikuta Shigejiro.

The Jutian Wing had been disabled by the security regiment in Nanguan County before, but the devil soldiers had been replenished, and it was difficult for the Taierzhuang defenders to deal with this elite wing.

Originally, the defenders of the 183rd and 187th regiments had no problem holding the Taierzhuang position, but Kikuta Mao Erlang poured a wing of troops to organize many fierce attacks, and in the end the Taierzhuang defenders suffered heavy losses.

The 183rd Regiment and the 187th Regiment are subordinate to the newly formed 17th Brigade of the 5th Theater of the National Army, and these two combat regiments are reinforced regiments after the reorganization, with about 1,500-1,800 people in each regiment.

The new 17th Brigade is just a miscellaneous unit, and its staffing is actually incomplete, so even if it is a reinforced regiment, its number is not comparable with the number of combat regiments of the Central Army.

The Kikuta Wing is a first-class wing with more than 3,500 combat personnel, and the new 17th Brigade has only more than 3,000 people.

Whether it is the number of people on both sides or the comparison of weapons and equipment, it is the little devil who has the advantage.

After a period of repairs in the security regiment, Li Hong took the initiative to ask for war in the war zone and obtained the permission of the commander of the war zone.

Li Hong was very aware of the situation in Taierzhuang, and after receiving the battle order that night, Li Hong immediately set off with the vanguard to help the defenders of Taierzhuang.

The vanguard of the security regiment had only one armored infantry battalion, and the rest of the troops followed closely behind to assemble in the Taierzhuang movement.

Nanfeng Town, where the security regiment is stationed, is not too far from Taierzhuang, and the only unit with the strongest combat effectiveness around Taierzhuang is the security regiment, and if you want to relieve the siege of Taierzhuang, there is only the security regiment.

The armored infantry battalion of the security regiment, acting as the vanguard force, rushed all the way from Nanfeng Town to Taierzhuang......

At eleven o'clock in the evening, three kilometers south of Taierzhuang.

At this time, the Japanese army's Kikuta Wing and the defenders of Taierzhuang were engaged in a fierce battle at night.

At present, the main street position of Taierzhuang has completely fallen into the hands of devils, and the officers and soldiers of the newly formed 17th Brigade are holding their positions, not giving up an inch of land, and the little devils will pay casualties if they want to seize a position.

The two sides have been fighting fiercely from eight o'clock in the evening until now, and the soldiers on both sides are fighting desperately together.

The two regiments of the new 17th Brigade fought hard with the Japanese army for many days, and less than 800 of the 3,000-strong troops remained.

Of course, the little devils took the position and also paid huge casualties, and the remaining combat troops of the Kikuta Wing were only more than 2,000 people.

"Tutu Tu Tu Tu—"

"Da Da Da-"

The sound of gunfire resounded in Taierzhuang, and sometimes there were cannon shots and explosions.

Brilliant and bright tracer bullets weave through the streets and alleys of the city, and these tracer bullets are very conspicuous at night.

Tracer bullets can be used in many ways, in addition to correcting the trajectory of the shot, but also to guide the grenadiers and artillery behind the target.

"The infantry charged forward, occupied the positions of the soldiers in front of China, and gave the !! to the ducks and chickens"

The Devil Soldier bent over and slowly moved forward through cover.

With the help of tracer bullets, the enemy frequently carried out precision strikes against the defenders of the Nationalist troops in the city.
