Chapter 1173: Two Birds with One Stone

Jiang Haoran looked calm, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, with a hint of imperceptible smile, he understood too well the meaning of the existence of this observation group, once the jet fighter was launched, it was no less than a super storm for the aviation field, who can still sit still in an industrial power like Mi Yingsu, and it is natural to rush to it, and the real purpose of this observation group is of course to come to the jet fighter.

Of course, before Jiang Haoran sacrificed the jet fighter, he had already expected this day, and had already planned, in this period, of course, interests are paramount, as long as the price is right, there is no technology that cannot be shared.

In the next three days, the national army air force carried out carpet bombing on the front line of the little devils, first selectively destroying napalm, and as the island army changed its strategy and built the defense line in densely populated villages and towns, the national army air force also changed its strategy, bombing with heavy aerial bombs, and then using fighter planes to strafe back and forth, in short, not giving the island army a chance to organize an effective attack, so that the soldiers who were caught in the encirclement could have a chance to breathe, and at the same time also accepted the airdrop of materials from the air force to prepare for the next step of breaking through the encirclement.

Although they have full control of air supremacy, the front line in northern Anhui is facing the four armies of the island army, plus the strength of the puppet army has reached one million, especially the two armies in the middle zone, they are biting the national army in the encirclement, forming a situation of dogs and teeth, relying entirely on bombing cannot solve the fundamental problem at all, if we cannot quickly tear open the frontal defense line of the island army and open an exit for the troops in the encirclement, the situation is still tense.

However, the 21st Group Army and the Third Group Army of the Nationalist Army on the front of northern Anhui, under the cover of aircraft and heavy artillery, failed to achieve anything in their attacks for three consecutive days.

The First Army of the Island Army used the 14th Division, the 20th Division, the 108th Division, two Division A and one Division B to carry out frontal defense, and withstood the frantic attack of the two group armies of the National Army.

The 109th Division, the 203rd Division, and the 204th Division were then used to implement a plan to encircle and annihilate the encircled national army.

In particular, Jiang Haoran's three divisions fell into the last place, not to mention, and they had to face an entire army of the island army alone, the situation was even more unoptimistic, if they did not break the first layer of encirclement, there would be no way to talk about rescue at all, which meant that their future was even more dangerous, and they would need to hold on for a longer time.

"All of them are waste, the two group armies, the tanks, heavy artillery, the weapons are sophisticated, and there are planes to provide fire support at any time, but they can't tear through the defense line arranged by the three divisions of the little devil, and Sun Lian doesn't know how to fight this battle?" The front could not be attacked for a long time, and Jiang Haoran was so angry that he scolded in the command headquarters.

Sun Lianzhong is the deputy commander-in-chief of the Fifth Theater of Operations, and is the supreme commander of the front line in northern Anhui at this time, and it is said that his tactical level is not bad, and he has performed well in the Northern Expedition War and the Central Plains War, especially in the Battle of Taierzhuang, and he became famous in the first battle.

Although the current commander-in-chief of the Fifth Theater is still Li Zongjian, the actual control of the troops is already Sun Lianzhong, Sun Lianzhong can also be regarded as an important minister in the Gui family, Jiang Haoran scolded him, Li Zongjian and Bai Chongxi's faces are not good-looking, but his performance in front of him is indeed unsatisfactory, no wonder Jiang Haoran is angry.

"Ahem!" Bai Chongxi coughed dryly twice, and said embarrassedly: "Brother Ziqian, this can't be completely blamed for imitating Brother Lu (Sun Lianzhongzi), the island army is pressed on the front line, there are two permanent divisions of the 14th and 20th, and the combat effectiveness is indeed good, among our two group armies, the only one that can fight the most is the Seventh Army, but the Seventh Army suffered heavy casualties after the First Battle of Xinyang, and less than thirty percent of the veterans are there, so it is understandable, but I believe that as long as they are given time, they will definitely be able to tear apart the enemy's defense line." ”

"Give them time? I'm fine, but can the little devil agree? Can two armies and three other divisions in the encirclement afford to wait? ”

"This ......", Bai Chongxi made a red-faced Guan Gong, and he didn't know how to answer, according to the combat effectiveness in the early stage of the Anti-Japanese War, a permanent division of the island army could easily deal with a group army of the national army, but in the hands of Jiang Haoran, he could easily defeat a division of the island army by pulling out a division under his hand, and the most elite special operations division annihilated two permanent divisions of the island army at one time, so it was undoubtedly embarrassing to say that the island army was powerful in front of him.

Li Zongjian hurriedly said: "Ziqian, the special operations division and the new third division are almost here, I think this important task can only be handed over to them to complete?" ”

Jiang Haoran glanced at Li Zongjian and did not refute, and then turned his eyes to Liu He on the side, Liu He hurriedly replied: "After receiving your order three days ago, they set off immediately, and got on the train of the Pinghan Railway in the afternoon, and had already gotten off the train from Zhumadian Station the morning before yesterday, and after two days and one night of rapid marching, they will definitely be able to reach the front of Fuyang early tomorrow morning." ”

Jiang Haoran nodded, then looked back at Bai Chongxi and said, "Chief Bai, I was in a hurry just now, so I was a little offended in my words, please don't be surprised?" ”

Bai Chongxi waved his hand and smiled: "What's the blame, I know your Jiang Haoran's temper best, the battle is like this, it's understandable to be in a hurry, besides, I, Bai Chongxi, am not the kind of person with chicken intestines and small belly." ”

"Hehe, then I'll be relieved." Jiang Haoran was cheeky and laughed, and then changed the conversation and said: "By the way, more than 100 tanks aided by the Soviet Union are now equipped for the Seventh Army, right?" ”

"Yes, it will be organized into a tank division, which currently belongs to the Seventh Army." Bai Chongxi replied, of course, this kind of benefit can only be given to his own descendants, and others can't think of it.

"Okay, order the tank division to immediately concentrate on the front line of Fuyang, and hand it over to the command of the special operations division tomorrow, and at the same time, prepare sufficient fuel and ammunition."

"Okay, I'll give them orders right away!" Seeing Jiang Haoran's posture, he was ready to hand over this important task to the special operations division, Bai Chongxi was naturally too late to be happy, so he agreed very happily, and immediately ordered a staff officer next to him to immediately implement this matter.

After doing this, Bai Chongxi said again: "Ziqian, I think that even if the special operations division and the new third division go up, it will probably take a day or two to tear apart the defense line of the island army at the earliest, and after rescuing the two group armies in front, it will take at least two or three days to advance back, but I'm afraid the three divisions behind will not be able to survive for so long, don't you still have an airborne force in your hand?" I think it's time to put them in handy, first, to solve the crisis of the first three divisions in front, and second, to form a counter-encirclement of the First Army of the Island Army, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone. ”
