Chapter 299: Yang Chen's Choice

On the Xinkou side, he had just received a telegram from Yang Chen from Datong, and Yan Laoxi, commander-in-chief of the Third War Zone, was also happy.

It's a pity that the joy took less than three seconds, and then the expression on his face froze.

Half an hour later.

3rd Theater Command.

Yan Laoxi sat in the first position, and all the commanders were also present, and when Yan Laoxi told the situation, the air in the entire headquarters froze at once.

The atmosphere was a little depressing.

"On the Xinkou side, how long will it take to win and annihilate the fifth division of the Japanese army?"

Yan Laoxi's sharp and deep gaze swept around, and then fixed on Wei Lihuang, the former commander-in-chief of the enemy and commander-in-chief of the 14th Group Army, and asked with a frown.

"General, you should know the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army, although our army currently occupies a little initiative, it is still not easy to win, or even completely annihilate the fifth division of the Japanese army."

Wei Lihuang straightened up and responded rather panickedly.

"Just tell me bluntly, how long will it take to completely annihilate the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army, give me a specific time!"

Yan Laoxi was obviously a little dissatisfied with Wei Lihuang's official-like answer, and there was a trace of anger in his tone.

"Least ...... At least half a month. ”

Wei Lihuang hesitated for a moment and responded.

"Nope! Half a month is too long, and the 358th Regiment can't hold out for that long in Datong.

According to reliable sources, the 14th Division of the Japanese Army has arrived in Zhangjiakou and will be able to reach Heihu Gorge in five days at most.

With the strength of the 358th Regiment, even if the whole army is exhausted, it can only delay the 14th Division of the Japanese Army for a day at most. Fastest update on PC:/

In addition, it takes two or three days from Heihu Gorge to Xinkou, that is to say, the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army can arrive at Xinkou in eight days at the earliest, and it will take less than ten days at the latest.

So now, I will give you seven days, and within seven days, I must be given to defeat and completely annihilate the 5th Division of the Japanese Army! ”

Yan Laoxi looked directly at Wei Lihuang and said slowly in an irrefutable tone.

"Commander, in seven days, with the strong strength of the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army, it is impossible for our army to annihilate it."

Wei Lihuang forced a face, revealing an expression that was more ugly than eating: "If you want to completely defeat the Japanese Fifth Division, it will take at least ten days, and if you want to completely annihilate the Japanese Fifth Division, it will take at least twelve days." ”

"Twelve days?"

Yan Laoxi was furious: "Don't say twelve days, even ten days won't work!" As long as the 14th Division of the Japanese Army can arrive at Xinkou and join the 5th Division, let alone defeat the 5th Division of the Japanese Army, even Xinkou, even this Taiyuan City will be difficult to keep.

Therefore, you must completely annihilate the Japanese 5th Division within seven days, at all costs!

Even if it costs three times or even five times as much as the Japanese Fifth Division, it must be killed!

Only in this way can we have the possibility of holding Shanxi! ”

Seeing that Wei Lihuang seemed to be hesitating, Yan Laoxi pondered for a moment and then shouted: "If you can't do it, then replace it!" ”

"Report to the general seat, I will do whatever it takes to annihilate the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army within seven days!"

Wei Lihuang tidied up his clothes and stood up directly from his seat.

"It's not a fight, it's a must!"

"Yes!"

With Yan Laoxi's paper order, Xinkou immediately intensified its attack.

Under the attack at any cost, the strength of the Japanese Fifth Division was insufficient, and the problem of logistics and supply could not keep up was suddenly highlighted.

This can make the commander of the 5th Division of the Japanese Army, Seishiro Itagaki very anxious.

It has always been his great Japanese imperial army that has taken the initiative to attack, when has he been passively defended by the majestic army?

However, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and under the shortage of ammunition, Seishiro Itagaki had to shrink the defensive line and hide in the mountains to resist the attack of the second war zone.

This is a great shame for Seishiro Itagaki, who has always been arrogant and conceited, and it is even more uncomfortable than killing him. Starting

Of course, that's an afterthought, so let's not talk about it for now.

Just talk about Yang Chen.

After sending the telegram to the regimental headquarters in Heihu Gorge and the Second Theater Command, Yang Chen quickly convened the high-level leaders of the various departments of the coalition army and held a military meeting.

When Yang Chen explained the situation, Li Yunlong and Huo Zhengyun did not immediately express their position, because they were not as free as Yang Chen, and they had to ask their superiors for instructions on all actions.

Yang Chen knew this, so he didn't urge them to express his position, but left the two of them a little time.

The meeting was hurried and ended quickly.

Huo Zhengyun hurriedly said goodbye to Yang Chen, Yang Chen knew what he was going to do, so he didn't ask too much.

"Brother Yang, why did you leave me behind?"

After Huo Zhengyun and his officers left, Li Yunlong couldn't wait to ask Yang Chen why he stayed.

The reason why he didn't leave immediately after the meeting was like Huo Zhengyun was because Yang Chen had given him a look before.

"Dude! You don't have to report to Brigade Commander Chen, because of Wutai County, I don't plan to take you there. ”

"Brother Yang, what do you mean by this?"

Li Yunlong looked stunned, not only him, but Zhang Dabiao and several other battalion commanders of the new regiment also looked at Yang Chen with a puzzled face at this moment.

"This time I went to Wutai County, there was more than one bad luck, and this time, Kenji Tu Fei Yuan and the 14th Division came to attack in a big way, and our army will be defeated.

With the hatred of the Japanese army for me, after the capture of Xinkou and Taiyuan, they will inevitably gather heavy troops in Wutai County to exterminate our guard battalion. "Update the fastest mobile terminal: ://

"What do you mean? In this battle, our army will be defeated? ”

Li Yunlong frowned.

"Hmm."

Yang Chen nodded, and then said: "I believe that you can also see it, brother, if it weren't for me, our army would have been defeated a long time ago; However, I was alone, and even if I tried my best, I could only delay the defeat and cause more casualties to the Japanese army.

It's still too difficult to turn things around.

If only I had a little more time to develop......"

Speaking of this, Yang Chen couldn't help but show a stunned expression.

"Brother Yang, we are doomed to defeat, and there is no possibility of defeating the Japanese army?"

Li Yunlong looked unwilling.

"Hmm."

Yang Chen nodded again: "But the defeat is only temporary, the final victory will definitely belong to us!" So we have to hold on! Persist until the end, and you will surely be able to achieve the ultimate victory! ”

"In this case, then I went to Wutai County with you to defend against the strong enemy, how could I survive and leave independently at this time.

Brother Yang, you are trying to trap me in unkindness! ”

Li Yunlong gritted his teeth and showed a resolute expression.
