Kleist waved his hand and said: "General Ishihara thinks too much, the national army aviation is currently hard wounded, plus our butterfly bombs are enough for them to be afraid of, continue to advance they are looking for death, if my estimate is good, they should retreat tonight." ”

Ishihara nodded slightly, and seemed to feel that there was some truth, but he couldn't make the decision on this matter, so he could only look at Okamura Ninji with an inquiring gaze.

Okamura Ningji took a breath and said: "The commander of this battle is obviously Jiang Haoran, Bai Chongxi can't make such a big move, and Jiang Haoran is a person who is difficult to fill, I'm afraid he won't be satisfied with the current gain, and this person is also the best at surprise attacks, and it is not impossible to advance to Cangzhou overnight." ”

Kleist showed a contemptuous smile on his face, and said: "General Okamura, I think you are scared by him, you have deified him too much, he has just suffered a new defeat in Guangxi, it is normal for people to be cautious for a while, and it is not easy to capture Cangzhou, even if he has this intention, his troops are also mechanized fast troops, and even he can completely defeat our frontal troops tonight, but don't forget, we still have two armies on the left and right, and he dares to go deep alone, Tomorrow, under the cover of the air force, our two armies will be able to cut off their rear routes, and this tactic is also what you know Jiang Haoran can use? ”

Okamura Ningji and Ishihara Waner glanced at each other, their expressions were very complicated, and they seemed to be a little moved but it was difficult to make this decision, at this time, a senior staff officer hurriedly came in to report that Jining and Fengzhen were lost one after another, and the Eighth Army of the National Army still did not intend to stop, and the troops advanced in the direction of Xinghe and Yanggao overnight, and the entire rear of Datong had been beaten by them.

Moreover, the Ninth Group Army in front of Datong also took advantage of the situation to advance to the Datong defense line, and it had the momentum of raising troops to attack.

"Eight Tooth Road!" Okamura Ninji gritted his teeth and roared, this time he was actually bullied home by this group of dirt eight roads, in his opinion, this is a great shame.

After calming his anger slightly, Okamura Ninji decisively ordered a telegram to Eitaro Yamauchi, ordering his Twelfth Army to annihilate the invading forces in the rear at all costs and stabilize the Daito defensive line.

The three divisions of the Twelfth Army of the Island Army and the Second Guards Division were the only surviving units that escaped from the Xuzhou battlefield, and Okamura Ninji added two more divisions and three Soviet puppet divisions to the original establishment of his three divisions, including a tank division.

Because the direction of Datong belongs to the hilly and mountainous area, it is not suitable for large-scale recruitment of tank troops, so the troops are mainly infantry, originally thought that it was enough to deal with the Tuba Road, and it would not take long to advance to the city of Taiyuan.

"Okamura-kun, the current situation forces us to attack, and I think we should accept General Kleist's suggestion and continue to attack in the direction of Texas." Ishihara Waner Masaki Road.

"Nani, keep attacking? Even the troops attacking Shanxi have been forced back, and we continue to attack? ”

'That's why we need to keep attacking. The loss of Jining, Datong's Golden Triangle defense line is no longer stable, which will stimulate the illusion that the Zhina army will open a breakthrough to attack Beiping, and they will inevitably increase their troops in this area in the next step. The frontal battlefield in North China is a vast plain area, and it is also a place where our heavy troops are hoarded, and tanks, artillery fire, and planes will become the biggest threat to their offensive path, and it is too difficult to tear our Pingjin defense line from the front, so it is entirely possible for them to choose to attack from the rear. But as long as we take advantage of the planes and tanks in our hands and attack from the front, they will have to be on the defensive, and they will not be able to draw troops to the rear, so that not only can we solve the crisis in Datong, but also realize the strategic concept of occupying Shanxi, after all, it is impossible for Jiang Haoran to use a tactic like tonight for a second time, and we will never give him this opportunity. ”

As soon as Ishihara's voice fell, Kleist immediately applauded and agreed, and Okamura Ninji gritted his teeth and agreed after thinking about it repeatedly.

In the following time, they began to readjust their tactics and deploy troops.

According to the plan, the central army quickly retreated to lure the enemy into depth, and at the same time tried to gather the scattered troops and assemble at the designated place. The left and right armies immediately moved closer to the middle road, and in cooperation with the central army to suppress the offensive posture of the national army, five more Soviet puppet divisions were urgently dispatched from Beiping and Tianjin to reinforce them, including two tank divisions.

As soon as dawn came, all the air forces took to the air to launch a retaliatory bombing campaign against the Nationalist troops on the front line and even on the entire front line of Texas.

The plan is bold and spicy, with a bit of a bit of a desperate decision, but it's still a good idea.

It's a pity that the magic is one foot high and one foot high, from the beginning they didn't guess Jiang Haoran's intentions, and what awaits them next is to fall into a desperate situation, yes, a desperate situation!

At three o'clock in the morning, a senior staff officer stumbled in with a pale face and sent an urgent telegram to Okamura Ninji that Cangzhou had sent an urgent telegram, and a large number of paratroopers suddenly appeared parachuted in ten miles behind Cangzhou, and the garrison asked for urgent reinforcements.

The sudden news stunned and stupefied everyone in the command.

It is undoubtedly Jiang Haoran's airborne division that came, and at this time, the airborne landing in the rear of Cangzhou can only show one result, Jiang Haoran wants to cut off the retreat of their forward troops, and his purpose is not to simply vent his anger, but to annihilate several front-line armies and even open the door to Pingjin.

At this time, the left and right flanks and the two armies had begun to assemble in the middle road, and the rear reinforcements had not yet left Pingjin, so it was too late to transfer reinforcements from anywhere.

The airborne troops chose the airborne site is also very tricky, ten miles away from the rear of Cangzhou, basically avoiding all anti-aircraft fire and ground troops, the locust army can not pose any threat to their airborne at all, maybe it will not take half an hour, they will launch a full-scale attack on Cangzhou, where is the chance of a garrison brigade of locusts in the face of the wolf-like force of the airborne division?

Before a few people came to their senses, the telegram from the Central Army arrived, and the Nationalist Tank Division suddenly launched another fierce attack, and the Third Tank Division of the Nationalist Army, dominated by the Battle Leopard Tank, had successfully broken through their defensive line and headed straight for Cangzhou.

At this moment, Okamura Ningji immediately felt that his eyes were black, and he couldn't even stand on his feet, if it weren't for the quick hand of Ishihara Wan'er next to him, I am afraid that he would have to fall to the ground on the spot.

Things are quite clear, Jiang Haoran's purpose is Cangzhou, although there are still many unreasonable things that cannot be explained, but as Jiang Haoran's old opponent, Okamura Ningji knows that he will never fight a battle that he is not sure of, and he must have a very thorough plan to do so.
