At this moment, the communications staff officer rushed in, also holding a telegram in his hand.

"Chief, the new emergency telegram of the Taiyue Military Region is an encrypted message, and only you can translate it!" After saying that, the communications staff officer handed the chief of staff a telegram full of numbers.

At this time, a secret telegram came, something must have happened, and the brows of the boss and the chief of staff instantly furrowed.

The chief of staff took the telegram, took out the codebook he had with him, and began to translate.

After translating the message, the smile on the chief of staff's face was gone, but replaced by a touch of solemnity.

"Boss, Wang Ping reminded us of one thing in the message!"

"They took Linfen, and the more than 7,000 devils who were sweeping them lost their lair. They are worried that these more than 7,000 devils are likely to turn around and go north directly and enter the Taiyue Military Region! ”

The boss quickly shifted his gaze to the map next to him, frowned and thought for a minute before vetoing: "You must not let them enter Taiyue!" ”

"More than 7,000 devils have entered Taiyue, and the little devils who already have no advantage in Taiyue will definitely regain a large number of advantages, causing huge pressure on Commander Chen and them. If the little devil can seize the opportunity, he may even inflict a devastating blow on Commander Chen! ”

"Chief of Staff, immediately give Wang Ping an order to stop these little devils from going to Taiyue at all costs!"

"Comrade Wang Ping has realized this!" The chief of staff replied, and then handed the translated message to the boss.

continued: "He has already begun to mobilize troops, ready to stop these devils at all costs, even if he can't kill them, he will find a way to severely damage them. However, just in case, he wants us to remind Commander Chen to be prepared to kill the devils! ”

"However, he also said that if the devil killed 5,000 people in Taiyue, he will bring 5,000 troops from Linfen to reinforce Taiyue!"

The boss's tense nerves suddenly relaxed a lot, and he said: "Since he has already thought about it, then do as he says, I believe in his ability!" ”

Fujino, who had been anxiously waiting for two hours at the temporary station of the Japanese army, finally waited for a call back from Okamura Ninji, the front army.

There is no doubt that Okamura Ninji agreed to his proposal.

Since Linfen couldn't defeat the new group, it became the breakthrough of the whole sweep. Then set the breakthrough in Taiyue, fight a few beautiful annihilation battles in Taiyue, and severely damage the Eighth Route Army in the Taiyue area!

"Chief of Staff, it's two o'clock in the afternoon, the troops have rested for nearly six hours, rest for another two hours, then have dinner, and leave on time at six o'clock in the afternoon!"

"It's 120 kilometers from here to the Taiyue area, and it's the closest road to take it, but it also takes nearly 30 hours. We will set off tonight, rest for eight hours during the day tomorrow, and strive to reach our destination at noon the day after tomorrow! ”

What Fujino did not expect was that more than 20 kilometers away from him, Songling Village, a small village hidden in a large area of hills and mountains, surrounded by thousands of local garrisons, guerrillas, and ordinary people, were desperately digging trenches and building fortifications.

More than ten kilometers away from the village, Rong Jun and Yan Song, with the troops under their command who could still fight, a total of about 3,000 people, scattered and marched towards Songling Village in a company and platoon. They didn't have anything with them except weapons, ammunition and a day's worth of dry food!

"Lao Yan, do you think the devil will really take this road!" Rong Jun, who was running beside Yan Song, asked with a worried expression.

"It's hanging!" Yan Song replied.

"It's been so long since the devils entered our base, and we haven't figured out their truth for so long. Now suddenly an order says that the devils are going north, and let us march to Songling Village to block them. Until now, I have not figured out why the commissar would suddenly give such an order! ”

"Yes! This order came too suddenly, and the soldiers were still resting, and they were directly woken up, followed by a long march of twenty kilometers! The Invalids replied in agreement.

"After wasting such a lot of effort, in the end, if the little devil doesn't take this road, it will be a big loss!"

Yan Song shook his head and replied: "No matter, let's execute the order first!" ”

"With such a big operation and the mobilization of so many troops, the regiment commander must know that since the regiment commander has no objection, then there is hope for this battle, I believe in the regiment commander's vision!"

At the headquarters of the new first regiment, political commissar Huang Yuanqiang was very serious.

Stand in front of the huge combat sand table, motionless.

An operational staff officer next to him was pointing to the sand table to report the situation to him: "Political commissar, the final information of the reconnaissance company: the little devil stationed here has not moved!" ”

"Things are going very well here in Songling Village, because it is located in the mountains, and the little devils don't pay attention to it. Several times the little devil plane passed by here in a flash! ”

"More than 4,000 people built positions together, and now three trenches plus various individual bunkers and machine-gun positions have been completed by a third. There were still many ordinary people in the vicinity who were mobilized by local cadres to reinforce the past, and by 12 o'clock in the evening, the local troops, guerrillas, and ordinary people who had built positions there for us must have added up to more than 10,000 people! ”

Huang Yuanqiang's brows furrowed suddenly, and he shook his head and replied, "The speed is still too slow!" ”

"Contact the troops and local cadres there, and before ten o'clock in the evening, the construction and reinforcement of three trenches plus all individual bunkers and machine-gun positions must be completed!"

"Before dawn, build five more of the same defense!"

"After dawn, all the common people retreated, and the local troops and guerrillas stayed, continued to repair the blocking fortifications, and strive to repair three more fortifications!"

"It's okay to be short, but it must be deep and strong enough to withstand the shelling of devil mortars without collapsing!"

"Okay, I'll contact them now, complete at least eight of the same blocking positions before dawn, and if you can't do it, continue to increase the number of people!" The combat staff officer replied immediately.

Huang Yuanqiang added: "Tell them that this is a death order given to them by the military division, and it must be completed!" ”

As soon as this staff officer left, Huang Yuanqiang shifted his gaze to another operational staff officer.

"Is the armored assault battalion ready and when will it go!"

"Also, I asked Zhou Ze to choose the battlefield on this section of the highway by himself, where is the raid battlefield he finally determined, and is there a specific raid plan!"

"Camp Commander Zhou just sent it over!" The combat staff officer replied immediately.

Pointing to a dot on the map, he replied, "Here!" ”

"The terrain here is flat, which is very suitable for armored vehicle raids!"

"Their battle plan is that after the devils arrive here, they will shell first and disrupt the devils. Under the cover of artillery sound, the armored vehicle quickly approached the battlefield, and then took advantage of the chaos of the devils to suddenly attack! ”

"But Battalion Commander Zhou had a request: they only had one mountain artillery company with six mountain guns, and the number was too small to be used to harass the enemy. I hope that the regimental headquarters will seconded all the mountain artillery companies of the third and fourth battalions and the mountain artillery companies of the guard battalion to him to form an artillery group! ”

"As long as the shelling lasts for two minutes, the armored assault battalion will be able to kill the devil by surprise, and then quickly retreat!"

"Yes, you can contact now, and then give the order!"

"In addition, tell Zhou Ze that if the raid is successful, find a way to leave all the thousands of mules and horses carried by the devil's baggage brigade for me, whether they are dead or alive!"

"Those mules and horses carry the ammunition supply of the devils, so that even if they reach Taiyue, they are a group of tired soldiers who have run out of ammunition and food!"
