Chapter 131: Yan'an's helplessness
As soon as Dai Li said, everyone immediately stared at him, Dai Li walked directly to the map, pointed to the map and explained: "Intelligence shows that Sugiyama Yuan commanded the troops of four divisions to encircle and suppress Li Ping's troops, and it is currently progressing smoothly, and Li Ping's troops are constantly being compressed. ”
"If Sugiyama suddenly orders the front-line troops to retreat, we can order Li Ping to entangle the devil for ten days, which is enough for us to lay the battle situation in Wuhan."
After Dai Li finished speaking, the generals' hearts tightened, now Li Ping couldn't parry, if he wanted to sabotage Sugiyama Yuan's transfer of troops, I was afraid that there was a danger of destruction.
The chairman's eyes were always on Shandong, and after a while, he spoke: "Send a telegram to Yan'an and his Li Ping, as long as he can hold back the devil, I will make up for him as much as he loses in this battle." ”
"One more thing, this battle is related to the fortune of the country, please General Li Ping must fight to the death."
After the chairman finished speaking, everyone's eyes began to turn red, they were all Chinese soldiers, but the dead were all Chinese.
After Yan'an received the telegram, the chairman was solemn, and the boss said: "Wuhan can't afford to lose!" If Wuhan is lost, the supplies he bought from abroad will be blocked in the Yangtze River by the warships of the devils, which will be unfavorable to the overall situation of the war, and we must deal with them. ”
After the boss finished speaking, a chief smiled bitterly: "Now the situation in Li Ping is precarious, we can only watch, and now we want to order them to be sent to death, I ......."
The cave was suddenly quiet, they were always concerned about the situation in Shandong, and they also knew that Li Ping was constantly compressed by Sugiyama Yuan.
Now Chongqing's request is directly to force Li Ping's 77th Division to a dead end, and they could still avoid the devil's edge before, but now they want to entangle the devil, isn't it a desperate charge?
But the overall situation required Li Ping to do this, and after the chairman put out the cigarette, he said: "Send a telegram to Li Ping, be sure to entangle the Shandong devils for more than ten days." ”
"If the situation changes, I will allow the 77th Division command to break away from the battle and return to Shanxi."
After speaking, the chairman closed his eyes painfully, and he knew in his heart that this telegram was equivalent to Li Ping's amulet.
After struggling slightly, the chairman opened his eyes and said to the boss: "Send a secret message to Political Commissar Zeng, if the situation deteriorates, please be sure to protect Li Ping so that he can return to Shanxi safely." ”
The boss nodded suddenly, although he only had one contact with Li Ping, but he knew that the little guy was a guy who was very proud in his heart, how could he escape from the army alone, if the 77th Division encountered an accident, he would also die in Shandong.
With the chairman's secret telegram, if the situation changes, Political Commissar Zeng can carry out special measures at that time.
The telegrams from Chongqing and Yan'an came one after another, and Li Ping gasped after receiving the telegram.
After reading the telegram, combined with his analysis of the intelligence, Li Ping suddenly became nervous, the second battle of Wuhan in his previous life was a failure, and after the devil took Wuhan, he entered Hunan, and the two sides turned the surrounding area of Changsha into hell.
Now that there is a chance to change, Li Ping is not ready to let go of this opportunity, if Gangcun Ningji fails, it will not only be a blow to the morale of the Japanese army, but also many benefits.
If the devils are going to prepare to attack Chongqing, then Wuhan must be taken, cut off the Yangtze River, and weaken the combat potential of the southern troops, and the materials brought by the chairman from abroad will not reach the troops in the future.
As a result, the Chinese forces are getting weaker and weaker, just like in previous lives, and the two sides have been in a stalemate for several years.
Now that there is an opportunity to change, then turn the situation around, so what can you do?
Li Ping kept thinking on the way, and the political commissar personally translated the chairman's telegram in the telegraph room of the headquarters, and after reading it, his face changed greatly, and then put the telegram into the pocket of the internal test, and walked out with determination.
When the commissar came to the headquarters, the staff officers were comparing on the map, looking at everyone's backs, the commissar patted his chest, not only the chairman's secret message, the young division commander who often stood here was like his child, and he had to make sure that he was alive.
On the other hand, Li Ping opened the map and muttered to himself: "If we want to entangle the devils for ten days, we can't give them a chance to retreat, otherwise there will be devils blocking us, so that the other devils can retreat in peace, and we will not be able to catch up at that time." ”
After speaking, he nodded slightly, if Chongqing's prediction was true, Sugiyama Yuan would definitely order the transfer of troops to retreat, but the current situation did not allow the troops to block the devil.
Li Ping was also thinking about how to make the devil not retreat easily, and after a little analysis, until the report of the signal corps interrupted him.
"Report to the division commander, telegram from the front, the Japanese army's sweeping troops from all directions suddenly accelerated the pace of sweeping, and there is a tendency to compress us to the positions around Juye, and the decisive battle may be advanced."
"What?" , Li Pingna almost choked, Sugiyama Yuan acted like this, could it be that Chongqing made a mistake and would not draw reinforcements from here.
The devil's abnormal behavior made Li Ping unclear about the purpose, could it be that Sugiyama Yuan was preparing to attack and then retreat.
couldn't figure it out, Li Ping raised his head and said: "Order the front-line troops, drag the devils, and slow down the devil's pace on the premise of controlling casualties." ”
"Yes, Commander."
Since you can't guess it, let's fight according to the original plan, and then respond to it immediately.
Now it is not Li Ping who is in a hurry, but Sugiyama Yuan of Jinan, the front-line troops are stubbornly resisted by the Eighth Route Army, is three days enough to advance by themselves? Sugiyama became suspicious.
"Your Excellency, Ningci of Gangcun in Wuhan sent a telegram again, asking us to inform us of the reinforcements, and he can make arrangements."
The words of the chief of staff of the devil made Sugiyama Moto's head split, and while the advance was not smooth, he was urging him to choose which side.
"Baga, order the troops to continue to advance, and if we can't compress the Eighth Route Army to Juye in three days, we will retreat."
Sugiyama Yuan still chooses the overall situation, otherwise if the Wuhan battle fails, he is afraid that he will also have to bear part of the black cauldron.
The devil's crazy actions made Li Ping more and more incomprehensible, and there was a voice in his heart that told him that Sugiyama Yuan must be planning something now?
But there is too little information, and Chongqing is not sure, and Li Ping is helpless now.
A day and a night later, Li Ping looked at the crazy devil who was depressed, this is really chicken blood!
"Division commander, the front line blocked the troops telegraph, the troop losses are beginning to increase, should we retreat."
The advice of the staff officers around him made Li Ping's heart move, the position here in Juye is ready, it is better than fighting an offensive and defensive battle with devils in the field!
Li Ping, who was hesitant, was interrupted by the signal soldier: "Report to the division commander, the intelligence of the underground party comrades, the devil has prepared a lot of supplies in Zaozhuang. ”
Li Ping frowned when he heard this, took the telegram and looked at it, wasn't the Sugiyama Yuan material placed in Jinan? What are you doing in Zaozhuang? This doesn't seem to have anything to do with encircling and suppressing himself, could it be that he wants to go south, Li Ping suddenly flashed.
