Jiang Haoran nodded, was silent for a while, and asked, "How long has the Snow Wolf Special Combat Team been gone?" ”

Bai Chongxi said: "It's only twenty minutes, if there are no big problems on the road, they should be able to rush to Southeast County before six o'clock." ”

The moment the island army aviation appeared, Jiang Haoran ordered Su Canwen to lead the team to set off, and the island army dared to parachute a unit into such a dangerous place so arrogantly, naturally this army must also have something extraordinary.

The strength of Texas has been empty, and only the women's division is left to defend the safety of Texas, and the only support that Jiang Haoran can give is the Snow Wolf Special Combat Team.

It is more than 100 miles from Dezhou to Southeast County, and if you choose a helicopter as a means of transport, half an hour is enough, but the target of the helicopter is too large, and the island military aviation must also be paying close attention to this road, and at the same time, the logistics channel is blocked, and a lot of transport vehicles and materials are stranded on the road, and Jiang Haoran does not dare to set himself on fire.

Therefore, the Snow Wolf special combat team can only choose to travel by car, and two guided missile armored vehicles escort them, even if they encounter the enemy's air force, they can also ensure their safety, under normal circumstances, it may be about an hour, but the road congestion and the "care" of the island army air force can be regarded as fast for them to arrive within two hours.

Jiang Haoran nodded again, his eyes were a little dazed, and he seemed to mutter, "I hope it's still too late." ”

"Ah...... What's in time? Bai Chongxi exclaimed.

"Oh......" Jiang Haoran smiled and said: "There are two worries, one is that the airborne troops of the island army break through Tong Fulin's defense line and blow up the material warehouse, and the entire Nanshan Army will fall into passivity, and the enemies on both sides of Southeast County will be like a shot in the arm, and the attack will be more fierce and crazy, and they will not be afraid to fight with us at night, without ammunition reserves and logistics supplies, we are like toothless tigers, and the island army will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to destroy us." Second, if the island army's northern offensive is not effective, and it does not break through the defense line of the Black Tiger and Yin Tonglai before the night comes, then the island army's airborne troops will immediately flee from the wind, and special forces like this will always be a big threat to us, keep them, you can't figure out when they will come out, just like this time, the cold will bring us great casualties. ”

As soon as Jiang Haoran said this, Bai Chongxi became nervous and said hurriedly: "Why don't you send a division from Sun Lianzhong's department to support?" Can Southeast County not afford to lose? ”

"No, it's too late to send troops to help, and it's impossible for any of the troops to arrive before the evening."

"If Black Tiger and Yin Tonglai don't stop the enemy's attack, or if their supplies are destroyed by the enemy, won't they immediately fall into danger, and we won't even have time to rescue?"

Jiang Haoran waved his hand and said: "It's not bad like this, I still have some confidence in the Black Tiger and Yin Tong, even if the material warehouse is destroyed by the enemy, it doesn't matter, at least they can drag it out until night, as long as it is night, the sky is ours, it's a big deal I'll give them an airdrop." ”

Bai Chongxi was obviously relieved, he didn't think as far as Jiang Haoran thought, in his opinion, as long as it had little impact on the battle situation, a small army of the enemy would flee, and there would be no next time if he escaped this time.

The two were silent for a while, and Jiang Haoran seemed to suddenly remember, and said, "There is no problem with Han Jihe's defense, right?" ”

Hanji River is a tributary of the Sujin River, located between Dezhou and Southeast County, separated by more than 40 miles from Southeast County, and more than 60 miles away from Dezhou.

The Sujin River is one of the nine rivers of Yuzhi in that year, and it is rumored that Xu Fu took a boat from this river into the sea to cross Fusang. In the Tang and Song dynasties, the Yellow River seized the ancient river of Jinjin into the sea, once became the border of Song Liao and Song Jin, and then the Yellow River moved south and seized the Huai into the sea, and the river gradually disappeared and became a waste Yellow River, which became a temporary trouble.

During the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, the Ministry of Industry suggested that the river should be excavated and the water should be discharged to calm the trouble, so there was this artificially dug Hanji River.

After the airborne troops of the island army appeared in the west of Dongnan County, all the transport troops behind them withdrew to the west bank of the Hanji River, and cooperated with the bridge guards to build a defensive line.

Bai Chongxi said: "There should be no problem, half an hour ago, Division Commander Leng transferred another regiment to strengthen the defense, and now it is almost here, what, are you worried about the enemy's idea of hitting Hanji Bridge?" ”

Jiang Haoran hesitated for a few seconds and said: "I don't think the airborne force of the Island Army is like an ordinary airborne force, and it is also a specially trained special operations unit, similar to our special operations division or even the Snow Wolf special combat team." ”

"It's not so mysterious, isn't it, there is no precedent for special operations in the island army?"

"No, they have, during the defense of Nanchang, they had a special forces to take my command headquarters, fortunately I was not in the headquarters, they killed more than 100 of my people, of course, in the end, they were all wiped out by me."

"And this?"

During the defense of Nanchang, it was the time when the chairman of the committee wanted Jiang Haoran to die, so many details about that battle were ignored, and there were not many records in the archives of the party-state, so it was not surprising that Bai Chongxi did not know about this.

"Even if they are special forces, there are only more than 2,000 people in total, and they can still attack two places at the same time?" Bai Chongxi said again.

Jiang Haoran shook his head with a wry smile, and didn't say anything more, saying that special operations to a person who doesn't understand special operations is tantamount to playing the piano to a cow.

Bai Chongxi also seemed to see something from Jiang Haoran's expression, and in order to hide his embarrassment, he immediately changed the topic and said: "By the way, Yin Tonglai arrested a young staff officer of the enemy's 52nd Army, and learned from interrogation that the island army had emptied all the troops in Baoding and Hejian for this attack, I think we should take the opportunity to seize the two places?" ”

Jiang Haoran immediately smiled and said, "You think so too, I was still thinking about this when you came in?" ”

"Ah, really, then we'll have to do a good job of totaling it."

……

At about five o'clock in the afternoon, Hanji River.

The water surface of the Hanji River is not wide, about 50 meters, but it runs through the north and south and directly enters the Yellow River, which is the only way from Dezhou to Southeast County.

At this time, on the bridge deck, on both sides of the bridge, and in an area of hundreds of meters near the bridge, machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns were erected, and sand barricades were rampant.

In order to ensure the safety of the bridge and not to be destroyed by enemy aircraft, an anti-aircraft battalion was fully deployed here.

The Nanshan Army was a fully mechanized force, plus several tank divisions in front, and thousands of vehicles provided them with material transportation, and since the appearance of the Island Army's airborne troops, these cars were forced to retreat to the west bank of the Hanji River, so it has also become a temporary staging place for supplies.

A few hundred meters away from the north bank of the Hanji River, the Nationalist army built a fortification, a company of soldiers was on standby, a circular machine-gun sand barrier was built on each side of the road, and a thick tree was erected in the middle to form a temporary outpost.
