In the expectant eyes of everyone, He Shuya got up and said: "Of these seventeen tanks, four of them were captured in the street battle in Pucheng and then repaired by sappers, but the remaining thirteen were captured by fire, or rather, by smoking. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

At that moment, He Shuya told the ambush that day from the beginning.

After listening to He Shuya's narration, the commanders of more than a dozen battalions attending the meeting became excited.

He Guangming's eyes widened and said, "Nerd, how do you have this brain?" Why is it so good? How did you come up with the idea of using smoked devils? But seriously, it must be unpleasant to be smoked, I used to smoke hares when I was a child, and it didn't take long to smoke them, and a litter of hares rushed out regardless of everything. ”

Wan Chongshan has always been cautious, saying: "The key is to find a suitable place, or you can't trap the devil tank, burn more wheat straw, and create more poisonous smoke, it will be in vain." ”

Huang Shouxin said: "This is easy, we don't have to trap the devil tank for a long time, as long as we trap it for a while, at most two or three minutes, the little devil hiding in the tank will not be able to stand it and run out, so the anti-tank trench can be competent." ”

Wan Chongshan said: "The Eighth Wing of the Independent Combat Vehicle not only has Type 95 light tanks, but also Type 97 medium tanks. ”

Huang Shouxin said: "Then dig the anti-trench deeper and wider, although the trench width and vertical obstacle crossing height of the Devil's Type 97 medium tank are stronger than those of the Type 95 light tank, they are also limited. ”

Wan Chongshan said: "There is another question, what should I do if the devil tank does not come out?" ”

"You think too much about this old man." Xu Rui said, "As long as Toshio Miyake and Yamamoto Etsuji are not idiots, they will definitely think that staying here can only lead to a dead end, so they will definitely break through." ”

The battalion commanders attending the meeting nodded one after another, indeed, it would only be a dead end for the little devil to stay under Qingniu Ridge.

Because the situation is clear, the devil's sweep continues to this day, it is already the end of the crossbow, and the aviation regiment of the Central China Dispatch Army has even been unable to dispatch a transport group to airdrop supplies to the surrounded Osaka Division, so if it holds on to the Qingniu Ridge, the situation will only get worse.

Right now, all the devil lacks is ammunition.

In two days, the devil will even run out of food.

When the time comes, it's time for the little devil to break through hungry.

Therefore, the Osaka Division must not only break through, but also break through as soon as possible.

After a pause, Xu Rui said again: "After the failure of the sixth breakthrough, the devils have not moved for more than four hours now, if I guess correctly, they must be holding back their big moves." ”

"Donkey's Day." He Guangming stood up and shouted, "Let them come, although let them let the horses come." ”

Xu Rui waved his hand to signal He Guangming to sit back on the chair, and then asked: "Everyone, let's talk about it, which direction will the Osaka Division break through from this time?" ”

He Guangming said: "Then it goes without saying, it must still be east." ”

Wan Chongshan said: "I also think that the devils will break through to the east, because Pucheng is still in the hands of our army, which will become the biggest obstacle for the Osaka Division to return to Pukou in the south, but there is no big obstacle to breaking through to the east, and it can reach Yangzhou directly, and the newly rebuilt Himeji Division is training in Yangzhou and can go forward to support." ”

Gao Chu also said: "The devil has gone east six times before, and this time will be no exception. ”

The rest of the battalion commanders such as Zhu Chen, Yao Lei, and Ji Cheng also mostly supported the opinions of the three.

Xu Rui asked He Shuya: "Nerd, where do you think the Osaka Division will break through?" ”

He Shuya said: "My opinion is just the opposite of that of Commander He, I think the Osaka Division will break through to the south!" ”

"Break out to the south?" He Guangming retorted, "How is this possible? Let's not talk about the existence of Pucheng in the south, even if there is no Pucheng as a roadblock, if the devil really plans to break through to the south, then the previous six breakthroughs, he should go south, first, to reconnoiter our troop deployment and firepower allocation, and second, to exhaust us. ”

"What Captain He said is precisely the crux of the matter." He Shuya said, "As Commander He said, if the previous six breakouts were just throwing stones to ask for directions, then the Osaka Division should not only break through in one direction, but should launch a tentative breakthrough in the other three directions to see which direction has the weakest defense." ”

Speaking of this, he paused, and after everyone thought for a while, He Shuya continued: "But the Osaka Division did not do this, but resolutely broke through to the east six times in a row, the reason why Toshio Miyake wanted to do this is to give us the impression that the Osaka Division is going to break through to the east and go to Yangzhou to join the Himeji Division!" ”

Huang Shouxin also said: "This is what Sun Tzu said in the Art of War, no, it is the sound of the east and the south!" ”

"But that's not right either." Wan Chongshan frowned and said, "If the previous six breakthroughs, the little devil was just trying to confuse us, if the Osaka Division is really ready to break through to the south, he should at least reconnoitre, right?" didn't even find out the enemy's situation, so he rashly broke through to the south, Toshio Miyake wouldn't be so brainless, right? ”

"Captain Wan ignored a fact." He Shuya stretched out his hand and pointed to the top of his head and said, "The devil's reconnaissance plane." ”

Wan Chongshan suddenly said: "Commander Xiao He, are you saying that the devil's reconnaissance plane has already carried out battlefield reconnaissance?" ”

"Yes." He Shuya nodded, then turned his head and asked He Guangming, "Commander He, yesterday afternoon, did you often have devil reconnaissance planes on your position?" ”

It was He Guangming's regiment responsible for encircling the southern front.

"Not really." He Guangming nodded and said, "Two devil reconnaissance planes hovered over our position for a long time, and before leaving, they also carried out two rounds of dive strafing at our heavy machine gun position. ”

He Shuya said: "This is already very obvious, the devil is going to break through to the south!" ”

After He Shuya finished speaking, Xu Ruicai said to He Guangming, Wan Chongshan and other more than a dozen battalion commanders: "How is it?" Don't have anything to say, do you? Don't look at the nerd man as young, but his battlefield insight is really stronger than you, he is a cadet from the academy, and he is worthy of being a student of my Xu someone! ”

After boasting a few words, Xu Rui said again: "Now I order!" ”

The commanders of more than a dozen battalions present at the meeting stood up one after another, standing tall and solemn.

(Dividing Line)

At the same time, Toshio Miyake was also holding a military meeting overnight.

As Hoshoya speculated, Toshio Miyake had decided from the beginning to break through to the south, and the six breakthroughs yesterday afternoon and night were just to create an illusion and confuse the enemy.

Toshio Miyake's decision was strongly supported by Chief of Staff Kataoka Kamiao and Wing Commander Yamamoto Etsuji of the Eighth Wing of the Independent Combat Vehicle, but it was not without its opponents.

The commanders of both infantry brigades of the Osaka Division opposed a breakthrough to the south.

The brigade commander of the 107th Infantry Brigade, Matsumoto Key, frowned and said: "Division commander, I think that we should continue to break through to the east and go to Yangzhou!" ”

The commander of the 132nd Infantry Brigade, Goto Juro, also said: "Division commander, I also agree with Matsumoto-san's opinion, yesterday afternoon and night, our 104th Division has launched six consecutive breakthroughs to the east, and the Shina Army holding the eastern front must be exhausted, and maybe one more all-out attack will cause the defense line to collapse." ”

"That's just wishful thinking." Toshio Miyake frowned and said.

Matsumoto Ken'er said: "But the Chinese army holding the southern front has not been attacked, and the Chinese army in this direction has been recuperating for such a long time, and its physical strength is definitely stronger than that of the Chinese army on the eastern front!" ”

"But the Chinese army on the southern front never imagined that we would break through to the south." Kataoka retorted, "Therefore, their mental slackness will occur, and mental slackness is sometimes more terrible than physical exhaustion, and this is the only reason why the division commander insisted on breaking through to the east six times." ”

Yamamoto Etsuji also said: "This is what Sun Tzu said in the Art of War." ”

"Striking the West?" Goto Juro frowned and said, "I'm afraid that painting a tiger will not become an anti-dog." ”

Goto Juro's words hit a bit big, and he also ridiculed Toshio Miyake, because this strategy of attacking the east and west was decided by him.

At that moment, Toshio Miyake got up and said: "Matsumoto-san, Goto-san, you have opinions that can be reserved, but the decision to break through to the south is irreversible, and I also hope that in the next breakthrough battle, the two of you can work together with the division and regimental headquarters, only in this way can we break through the encirclement!" ”

"Haiyi, the lowly rank will definitely go all out and resolutely carry out the orders of the division and regiment headquarters."

Toshio Miyake has already said so, and Kenji Matsumoto and Juro Goto can only obey.

Toshio Miyake raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and said: "Now the time is 4:05 in the morning, I will give you fifteen minutes to prepare, at 4:20 in the morning, the 108th Infantry Wing will take the lead in attacking the Eastern Front to attract the attention of the Shina Army, in order to confuse the enemy as much as possible, the 8th Wing of the Independent Tank also needs to send a squadron to fight together." ”

"Hello!"

"Hello!"

The wing commander of the 108th Infantry Wing, Jiro Miyamoto, and the wing commander of the 8th Wing of the Independent Combat Vehicle, Yamamoto Eshiji, stood up at the same time and paused.

Toshio Miyake immediately continued: "After the attention of the Shina Army was attracted to the Eastern Front, the main force of the division began to break through to the southern front, with the 1st Infantry Wing as the vanguard, and the Cavalry Wing responsible for protecting the right flank of the division and preventing the Shina Army on the Western Front from coming to reinforce it. ”

"Hello!"

"Hello!"

The wing commander of the 137th Infantry Wing, Kawasaki Shiro, and the wing commander of the 104th Cavalry Wing, Takahashi Yasukazu, stood up at the same time and paused again.

After thinking about it, Toshio Miyake specially told Kawasaki Shirou: "Kawasaki-san, be sure to tell the warriors of the 137th Infantry Wing that this breakthrough is not only related to the survival of the 104th Division, but also to their lives, if they want to return to the country to gather with their relatives, they must show enough courage!" ”

"Hello!" Kawazaki Shiro paused and said, "I understand! (To be continued.) )
