The headquarters of the 10th Division is stationed.

Hearing that the cavalry squadron was being shelled by the Shina army, the commander of the Isoya Division couldn't help but turn pale.

After slapping Captain Hirata several times in succession, the commander of the Isoya Division shouted, "Nani? The Chinese army actually ambushed our cavalry in Taierzhuang? What do you do as a cavalry squadron leader?"

With his head drooping, Captain Hirata shouted again and again, "Hay! The Chinese army was too cunning, and they actually used trickery to lure my cavalry into pursuit, so we fell into their ambush under Taierzhuang! ”

With a glare in his eyes, the commander of the Isoya Division shouted, "Hirata-kun, you have also brought the commander of the soldiers for several years, why are you still so careless?"

Squadron Leader Hirata shouted, "Haihai! I'm sorry, I did underestimate the enemy, and I am willing to accept the punishment of His Excellency the Wing Captain! ”

The commander of the Isoya Division shouted: "Punishment? Hum! This account, when I win Taierzhuang, I will calculate it with you! Now get out of here! ”

With a sigh of relief, Squadron Leader Hirata withdrew from the field tent of the division commander.

At this time, the chief of staff on the side shouted: "Your Excellency the division commander, it seems that the Taierzhuang of the Zhina Army has laid out heavy troops!"

The commander of the Isogu Division shouted: "Our intelligence is really not wrong, the Chinese army has really taken Taierzhuang as the key point of Xuzhou's defense!"

The chief of staff shouted: "The division commander means to attack Taierzhuang with all his might?"

The commander of the Isogu Division shouted: "Yes, as long as we take Taierzhuang, then Xuzhou will be just around the corner, and the Jinpu line will naturally be opened!"

With a slight bow, the chief of staff shouted again: "However, the Chinese army sent cavalry to lure our cavalry squadron deep into Taierzhuang, which is obviously to attract our main force!"

With an eyebrow raised, the commander of the Isogu Division shouted: "You mean that the Zhina Army has arranged a pocket in Taierzhuang and is waiting for my 10th Wing to jump in?"

The chief of staff shouted: "If I am not mistaken, in fact, it is so, you see that the Tang Enbo regiment did not stop my 10th Division in front of Taierzhuang, but got out of the way and hid in the mountains!" The Chinese army deliberately let us attack Taierzhuang! ”

The commander of the Isoya Division shouted: "What you said has some truth, but Tang Enbo's army hid in the mountains because it was afraid of the military might of my 10th Division, I think that in the Battle of Nankou back then, our imperial army beat Tang Enbo's troops all over the ground!"

Shaking his head slightly, the chief of staff shouted: "Your Excellency the division commander, haven't you understood it yet?" The commander of the Xuzhou China Army has put a pocket array for me? As long as the main force of our 10th Division is entangled by the defenders of Taierzhuang, and then Tang Enbo's corps kills us from the mountains, it will be dangerous! ”

After a little hesitation, the commander of the Isoya Division shouted: "The chief of staff is too worried! How is this possible, Tang Enbo has been beaten out of the shadow in our hearts, and Tang Enbo can't have this kind of courage at all! ”

The chief of staff shouted: "Then at least we have to wait for the Itagaki Division in Linyi!" After all, it is a taboo for soldiers to go deep alone! ”

waved his hand to the chief of staff, and the commander of the Isogu division shouted: "Chief of staff, you are still too cautious, the Zhina army is vulnerable, I heard that the Zhina Army guarding Taierzhuang is the Northwest Army, and its combat effectiveness is no different from the 29th Army in Beiping, as long as our heavy artillery bombards, the planes in the sky are bombed, and the chariots on the ground are crushed, how can a small Taierzhuang block the imperial soldiers!"

The chief of staff continued to insist: "Your Excellency, division commander, think twice! ……”

The commander of the Isogu Division shouted: "Don't say it, early tomorrow morning, immediately besiege Taierzhuang with heavy troops, and strive to open the door of Xuzhou within three days!"

After a pause, the commander of the Isoya Division shouted again: "Signal soldiers!"

A communications soldier shouted, "Hai! Your Excellency, Division Commander, what is the order? ”

The commander of the Isogu Division shouted in a deep voice: "Has the heavy artillery brigade arrived at Liujiahu?"

The signal soldier raised his voice and responded: "Your Excellency the commander of the reporting division! The heavy artillery brigade has arrived at Liujiahu and is ready to attack at any time! ”

With a smile on his face, the commander of the Isoya Division shouted, "Yo Xi! The most important weapon to attack Taierzhuang is heavy artillery! As long as the heavy artillery is in place, then the strong Taierzhuang will not be a problem! Pass my orders! The heavy artillery brigade will officially shell Taierzhuang at 8:18 a.m. tomorrow! ”

Suddenly, the communications soldier shouted, "Haiyi!"

……

Taierzhuang 122nd Division Command Post.

Liang Shanhao once again convened a meeting of officers at and above the regimental level to make further arrangements for the defensive operations in Taierzhuang.

Glancing at the officers, Liang Shanhao groaned and shouted: "Everyone, today we beat the cavalry of the little devil under Taierzhuang City, this will make the old boy of Isoya Ryosuke definitely angered by us!" Next, what do you think the little devil will do to us?"

The commander of the 181st Regiment shouted: "This is not clear, the little devils of the 10th Division will definitely take revenge and storm the Taierzhuang position!" ”

Liang Shanhao shouted: "Yes, then what do you think is the most threatening thing about the devil's attack to our defense?"

After thinking about it, the commander of the 182nd regiment shouted: "Do you need to talk about this?" The infantry is a little better to deal with, it must be their tanks and planes! We are most afraid of these two things when we fight with little devils! ”

Liang Shanhao shouted: "That's right, we are indeed most afraid of these two weapons, the reason is that we are really dealing with these two weapons!" However, the biggest threat to us is not planes and tanks! ”

Several regiment commanders were discussing.

The commander of the 183rd Regiment shouted: "You say so, that little devil will not be the biggest threat to us is heavy artillery, right?"

Smiling slightly, Liang Shanhao shouted: "Well, it's indeed a heavy artillery!" There are many fortifications in Taierzhuang, and heavy artillery is the most deadly! ”

The chief of staff on the side shouted: "Tuanza! You mean, strike first and knock out the devil's heavy artillery?"

Liang Shanhao shouted: "What the chief of staff said is that the little devils of the 10th Division have just arrived in Taierzhuang, and their heavy artillery must have also arrived, at this time, let's strike first and kill the devil's heavy artillery, then this battle will be much easier!"

Frowning slightly, the chief of staff shouted: "Division, your idea is good, but we haven't figured out where the devil's heavy artillery is yet?"

Striding to a map of Taierzhuang, Liang Shanhao shouted: "Chief of Staff, you look carefully at the map, if you are the commander of the devil, where will you put the artillery?"

also walked to the front of the military map and looked at it, and the chief of staff's eyes lit up: "Liu Jiahu!"

Liang Shanhao smiled: "Why?"

The chief of staff shouted: "The terrain near Liujiahu is flat, and there are many pine trees nearby, which is especially suitable for the concealment of artillery positions, but at the same time, the distance from Taierzhuang is just right!"

Liang Shanhao shouted: "Chief of Staff, you have a good analysis!" Except for Liujiahu, there is no place suitable for the devil artillery to arrange their positions! ”
