Shen Shaofan stood alone in the command center of the division headquarters and looked at the battle map, the cigarette in his hand had slowly burned out, Shaofan had been worried about the results of the battle in Shanjiagang, he stared at the map and thought about the development of this battle. ―――. {}{}{}{}].

Sun Zhiyu walked in quickly, said with a smile on his face: "Shao Shen Shaofan, when he heard this, he couldn't hide the joy on his face, he turned around and took the telegram in Zhiyu's hand, read it, patted his thigh, and said excitedly: "It's really good." He looked up at the map and pointed to the shangjiagang and said: "Liu Yufeng's regiment plus the cavalry battalion; There are nearly 10,000 people in the Broadsword Battalion, and that's not something that a single wing of devils can eat. ”

Sun Zhiyu said: "We haven't received any news about the specific situation, and we have to wait for Zhang Wenshan's communication soldiers to report." ”

"That's not a problem." Shen Shaofan pointed to the map and said, "Who our opponent is, this is the key. ”

Sun Zhiyu was a little puzzled and asked, "Does it matter?" ”

Shen Shaofan said: "Yes! If it was Kitama Yong's army, then Takeda Toshiharu would not use his army as the main force to attack the shanjiagang. Sun Zhiyu was a little puzzled and asked, "Why?" Shen Shaofan looked at the map, smiled slightly, walked to the table with another cigarette, and said, "Because the combat effectiveness of Beichangyong's army is not valued by Takeda Dongchen Hatofu. ”

Sun Zhiyu thought for a while and said, "It's like that for you to do this. If Bei Changyong's division was not used, then what division would Takeda use? ”

Shen Shaofan smiled and picked up a teapot and said: "Takeda Tochen Hatoo has a total of five divisions to form the Takeda Army, the first is Kawagishi Bunzaburo's Kawagishi Division, according to intelligence, Kawagishi Bunzaburo is a student of Takeda Tochen Hatoo, and the chief of staff of the Kawagishi Division is Takagi Yoshito and Takeda's student, this army is one of the armies that Kawagishi Bunzaburo believes in, but the Kawagishi Division is in the East Pass Takeda It is impossible for his division to turn over. The second is that most of the Beichang Yong Division, which has now crossed Tianyu, is a soldier forcibly recruited by North Korea and Taiwan, and its combat effectiveness is relatively weak, except for the first and second wings of the Beichang Yong Division, which are strong in combat, the combat effectiveness of other wings is nothing more than that. The third is Takeda's nephew Tochen Sasaki's army Tochen Division, this division has never been engaged in combat in the country, as for the analysis of combat effectiveness, it is not clear, but since it can survive from Yunnan and Burma, it should not be very weak in battle. The fourth is the Uesugi Pillar Division stationed at the wind beach of the Han River, this division is an army brought out by Takeda from Yunnan and Burma, and is based in Yunnan and Burma, and is known for its fierceness and fear of death. Fifth, that is, the Takeda Division led by Takeda Totatsu Hatoo himself, this division has infantry; Tank; The combat effectiveness of the mechanized division with a mixture of armored vehicles can be imagined, but this division Takeda will not be thrown into the battle of Shanjiagang. In my opinion, there are only two divisions that may enter the battle of Pengjiagang, that is, the Dongchen Division and the Uesugi Division, the Dongchen Division is located far from the Han River, and the Uesugi Division at Fengtan is the closest unit to Tianyu, if this is the case, Takeda may send Uesugi Zhu's division to replace Bei Changyong's division. Shaofan pinched the cigarette butt into the ashtray and said: "If it is the Uesugi Division, I think the strength of one regiment and two battalions is absolutely insufficient." Sun Zhiyu said: "You promised Zhang Wenshan to send the 4th Regiment Zheng Hu to support Shanjiagang." ”

Shen Shaofan said: "Zheng Hu's troops are already marching to the shangjiagang, and it stands to reason that they can go to the shanjiagang in one day." ”

Sun Zhiyu asked, "Then what are you still worried about?" ”

Shen Shaofan looked at the map and said, "I don't know for the time being." What would you do if the four takefields were occupied in Shanjiagang and could not be captured for a long time? ”

Sun Zhiyu looked at the map and then at the sand table and said, "If that's the case, I will move to the North Pass." ”

Shen Shaofan said: "Not bad! Although the North Pass is far away from the Pengjiagang, it is the only way to attack the North Pass if it cannot be attacked for a long time. If the North Pass is breached, then our left flank will be torn apart, and the defense line of Chuling in that county will be in danger. ”

"Yes," Sun Zhiyu said: "Although attacking the North Pass without capturing the Pengjiagang cannot completely destroy our army's defense line in the county Chuling, it is equivalent to sticking a knife in our back." ”

Shen Shaofan said: "Call Blocking the Sky and let him go, I want him to go to the North Pass immediately and sit in the North Pass." ”

Sun Zhiyu answered and turned to leave.

Shen Shaofan looked at the sand table and was still thinking about something, he looked at the place where the division headquarters silently put on another cigarette.

Tianyu Japanese Army Command.

Uesugi Zhu slowly walked into the command headquarters and saw Takeda Tochen Doze Dozing off in a chair, so he stood on the sand table and looked at the sand table carefully for more than a while, Takeda suddenly woke up and saw Uesugi Zhu looking at the sand table and said in surprise: "Oh! How long have you been here? Uesugi Pillar stood up and said, "One hour." Takeda said, "Why didn't you wake me up?" Uesugi smiled, "I didn't bother you when I saw that Your Excellency slept soundly." ”

Takeda smiled: "Old friend, you! Then he came to the sand table and said, "It seems that you should know the current situation very well, right?" ”

Uesugi said, "I see." I immediately prepared to go to the shangjiagang in person. ”

Takeda smiled and said, "Good! ”

Shanjiagang Forward Command.

The artillery fire was still violently smashing towards the No. 1 position of the pengjiagang, the whole sky seemed to have been covered by gunsmoke, and bullets were constantly hitting the position in the scorched air, Liu Yufeng looked at the battle situation at the front in the bunker and said: "Chief of staff!" The devil's offensive seems to be much weaker! ”

Zhang Wenshan looked at the map and said without raising his head: "It's been a day and a night, and I think that Muichiro's army is estimated to be almost consumed." ”

Liu Yufeng raised his steel helmet on the side and said: "This Mu Yilang can also be regarded as a member of Beichang Yong, and he has not weakened even more than a dozen offensives, and he is still organizing attacks. ”

It was mentioned above that the Pengjiagang is the back door key to enter the county Chuling, and it plays a very important role in the current battle, but although the Pengjiagang is not a natural danger, it is not easy to open the door of the Pengjiagang, and the strength of the National Youth Division of the Pengjiagang is not weaker than Muichiro's wing, so it is indeed very difficult for Muichiro to come to this capture mission. Mu Yilang has organized a measured number of troops to launch no less than fifteen attacks on the Pengjiagang, but all of them ended in heavy casualties, he never expected that the firepower of the National Youth Division was strong, and the number of personnel was incalculable to them, when he knew the number of troops on the Pengjiagang position, he already knew that with the strength of one of his wings, he could no longer compete with the National Youth Division on the Pengjiagang position, don't capture the Pengjiagang, he was already in the embarrassing situation of being wiped out by the National Youth Division at any time and anywhere.

Zhang Wenshan was not very worried that Mu Yilang on the opposite side would be able to eat them at this time, but he was worried about whether the devils would reinforce, how many people would be there if they were reinforced, and when Zheng Hu's troops would arrive at Shanjiagang. In the face of a wing, the regiment can still hold on, but when he faces more and more powerful enemies, will the shed still be in their hands?

The battle has now entered a relatively stable tug-of-war, and in Zhang Wenshan's words, the attack of the devils is negligible, because they have fired two shots and charged halfway up the mountain, leaving a few corpses behind. But Zhang Wenshan will not attack easily, because their task is to defend the shantytown post instead of exterminating the devils in front of him.

Muichiro didn't have any way now, he was anxiously pacing back and forth in his headquarters, as if waiting for a call, suddenly the phone in front of him rang, and he was also stunned, and when he took the phone, he heard a curse from Bei Changyong, and then he hung up the phone with a "hi" sound.

A second lieutenant officer asked, "Your Excellency, General What's wrong with him?" Muichiro said very frustratedly: "General Sugizu will come here later." General Kitamasashi asked us to hand over the battle mission to General Uesugi Tsuru. ”

The second lieutenant's eyes widened when he heard this, and he said, "Nani! We're almost ready to lay down the shed. ”

Muichiro looked at the shanty hill in the distance, it was in front of him but could never be touched, like the fruit of a tree that could be easily obtained but could not climb the tree himself.

The second lieutenant officer said on the side: "Why don't I organize an attack and take the shantypost in one go?" ”

Muichiro knew in his heart that one attack would not be effective at all, and even a few more attempts would be in vain. He looked at the shank and said, "Forget it! Wait for the arrival of Uesugi Pillar! ”

The second lieutenant officer could only look helplessly and said, "Okay then! ”

Jiuhupo National Youth Division.

A correspondent was eating steamed buns in a big gulp and said while chewing: "Division commander! That's the case. ”

Sun Zhiyu said on the side: "Shaofan, it seems that your guess is right. Kitama Yong's Muichiro wing was unable to eat the regiment and the 105th and 106th battalions. (The 105th Battalion is the Cavalry Battalion.) The 106th battalion is the broadsword battalion)

Shen Shaofan said after a while: "It seems that the Uesugi Division will completely take over Muichiro's position. After thinking about it, he asked, "When will the 4th regiment arrive at Shanjiagang?" ”

Sun Zhiyu looked at the time and said, "It is estimated that it will take 7 hours." ”

"Seven hours!" Shaofan took a sharp puff of cigarette and said, "I think Liu Yufeng can hold it." Connect me to Zhang Wenshan. ”

The headquarters of the forward position regiment of Shanjiagang.

Zhang Wenshan was dozing off in a chair when he was suddenly woken up by the guard battalion, he suddenly looked up, and thought that the devil had attacked again, and it turned out to be the guard: "The telegram from the chief of staff." ”

Zhang Wenshan stood up, took the telegram, glanced at it, and said, "What about Head Liu?" ”

"The regiment is inspecting the fortifications on the position!" The guard said.

Zhang Wenshan raised his feet and walked a few corners towards the position, and saw Liu Yufeng teaching people to dig bunkers, so he stepped forward and said, "The telegram from the division." He handed the telegram to the wind.

Liu Yufeng looked at the telegram report: "It seems that the division seat is not wrongly calculated. The devil on the other side suddenly came down, and I guess he was waiting for the arrival of the Uesugi Division. ”

Zhang Wenshan said: "The onslaught of a division and regiment for 7 times is enough to choke!" ”

Yu Feng smiled and said, "I've thought about it too." Walk to the command again. ”

When they came to the headquarters, they had already heard Wang Tiecheng's loud voice at the headquarters, and several recruits in the regimental headquarters were stunned when he talked about the Lugou Bridge. As soon as he saw Yu Feng and Zhang Wenshan coming in, he put away his big voice and saluted: "Chief of Staff, Commander Liu, are you looking for me?" ”

Yu Feng said: "We have a task to give you the Great Sword Battalion. ”

"What's the matter?" Wang Tiecheng asked.

Yu Feng said: "Come and see. Pointing to the map, he said: "This is Gulin Road, and here is the shanty post we are sticking to." The devils are coming to support the shangjiagang, and the nearest and fastest route is to cross the ancient forest road. ”
