Soon, a group of soldiers of the 31st Division swarmed out and rushed quickly towards the position of the army.

Seeing the 38 rifles and crooked light machine guns everywhere, a second lieutenant platoon commander of the 31st Division couldn't help but scold angrily, "Damn, this group of losers in the Tiger Army, such good equipment doesn't even look at it." ”

After speaking, he pointed to the soldiers under his command and said loudly: "Take it, give it to Lao Tzu as much as he can, they are defeated by the Tiger Army, our 31st Division cannot be defeated, and all the valuable things on the corpses of the devil soldiers will be taken away by Lao Tzu." ”

"Yes!" The soldiers responded with a bang, and immediately began to quickly clean up the battlefield.

At the same time, the 1st Regiment of the 1st Division successfully captured the positions of the army in the area of Liujiahu, and the 2nd Regiment advanced to the northwest along Weishan Lake and began to attack Yinping Town and other places, and the front of the troops was directed at Zaozhuang.

The 2nd Division and the 2nd Regiment were led by Chu Jingming to the East Road to cooperate with the 59th Army to block the 5th Division of the Yue Army, and the 1st Regiment under the leadership of the division commander Cao Er attacked and advanced to Daizhuang and Xinglou in the southeast direction of Taierzhuang, and the main force of the 3rd Division and the 1st Regiment were responsible for sweeping away the Yue Army outside the Taierzhuang Walled City with the cooperation of an armored company.

The 3rd Regiment of the 1st Division, the 2nd Regiment and the 3rd Regiment of the 3rd Division, as well as most of the Guard Regiment and the Armored Brigade of the Military Headquarters, were retained by Qiao Anbang as a reserve for the whole army.

After the attack lasted for an hour, the good news of the regiments was frequent, and all the Yue troops within five kilometers of the entire outer area of Taierzhuang were swept away by the Huben army, and all the peripheral important places such as Liujiahu and Xinglou were recovered.

The four main regiments of the Huben Army re-formed a defensive line on the periphery of Taierzhuang, among which the 1st Division and 2nd Regiment, which were responsible for attacking along Weishan Lake, began to move in the direction of Zaozhuang with the strength of five companies to make preliminary preparations for the counterattack on Zaozhuang.

……&……………… South of Taierzhuang, in a village near Bear's Ears Mountain, Sun Lianzhong deliberately moved his headquarters here in order to avoid the bombing of the Japanese army's planes.

In the headquarters of the Second Group Army, a communications staff officer was reporting to Sun Lianzhong on the battle situation outside Taierzhuang: "According to the report of the 31st Division on the front, the Huben Army has cleared the enemy on the periphery of Taierzhuang, especially the Yue Army entrenched in the direction of Liujiahu and Xinglou in the northwest was defeated by the Tiger Ben Army head-on, and most of the defenders of the Yue Army were annihilated, and a few of them fled.

"What?" Sun Lianzhong was taken aback when he heard this, and suddenly got up and said, "What did you say?" Within an hour, the Tiger Ben Army wiped out all the troops within five kilometers of the periphery of Taierzhuang? Also recovered Liujiahu and Xinglou? ”：

"Yes, Chief." The communications staff nodded in reply.

Sun Lianzhong paced back and forth in the headquarters with his hands behind his back thoughtfully, and said in shock: "This Qiao Anbang really has a different reaction, and as soon as he makes a move, it is enough to shock both the enemy and us!" ”

Sun Lianzhong's performance had already impressed Sun Lianzhong, and he immediately said: "Order the 27th Division to immediately advance forward, and if necessary, assist the Tiger Ben Army to resist the counterattack of the Yue Army!" Sun Lianzhong knew that the devil would definitely not give up, and would definitely counterattack on a large scale, so he was afraid that the Tiger Ben Army would not be able to support it alone, so he arranged it like this.

"Yes!" The communications staff officer suddenly stepped forward in response, and immediately turned around and walked away quickly.

Guo Zhuang, which is less than seven or eight miles away from Sun Lianzhong's headquarters, in order to facilitate the command of the troops, Qiao Anbang also moved his headquarters here.

The headquarters is located in a small forest outside Guozhuang Village, and the guard regiment has guarded the entire area around Guozhuang, so there is no need to worry about the safety of the headquarters.

In the simple headquarters, Qiao Anbang was frowning at the map and pondering, Wang Gensheng, the commander of the guard regiment, Li Yifeng, the commander of the first division, and Li Jupeng, the commander of the third division, were all standing quietly behind him, they all knew that Qiao Anbang was thinking about tactics, and they did not dare to disturb him.

Qiao Anbang was indeed thinking about tactics, and he was giving birth to a very bold battle plan in his mind, that is, to surround the Seya detachment that was alone in the depths, and then attract the 10th and 14th divisions of the Yue Army to come to their aid, as long as the 10th and 14th divisions were hooked, then Tang Enbo's corps would take the opportunity to cut off the retreat of the two master regiments of the Yue Army, and attack the Tiger Ben Army and the Second Army inside and outside, even if they could not completely annihilate the two master regiments of the Yue Army, they could still inflict heavy losses.

Tang Enbo's corps was the most well-equipped and most powerful group army in the Battle of Xuzhou, except for the Tiger Ben Army, and they were fully capable of cutting off the weak rear of the Yue army, but the key was that Tang Enboken refused to cooperate.

This old boy could save himself in the Battle of Xuzhou in the original history, and if it weren't for Li Zongren's bitter advice to Chairman Chiang, it is estimated that there would not be a great victory in Taierzhuang, which is famous at home and abroad.

If Qiao Anbang proposed his battle plan to Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi, it is estimated that Li Bai and Bai would also find it difficult to accept it, because they lacked the confidence to encircle and annihilate the two master regiments of the Yue Army.

Since this is the case, it is only necessary to create the fact of the battlefield, so as to drag the [***] of the entire Xuzhou area into it, and it is very simple to attract the 14th Division and the 10th Division to help, as long as the Tiger Army surrounds the Seya detachment, it is not afraid that the devils will not send troops to reinforce.

At that time, tens of thousands of troops will penetrate deep into the hinterland of Taierzhuang, and both Li Bai and Chairman Jiang will have to face a choice, either to give up Xuzhou completely, or to be forced to cooperate with the Huben army to fight a large-scale encirclement and reinforcement campaign.

Qiao Anbang was still considering, and suddenly a communication soldier rushed in and saluted Qiao Anbang: "Headquarters, the scouts report that a large number of devils have come from the direction of Zaozhuang and Yicheng, and the strength of the devils in both directions is less than a wing, and the devils from the direction of Zaozhuang are equipped with a tank and armored unit. ”

"Huh? The devil is coming so fast! Hearing this, Qiao Anbang paced back and forth in the headquarters with one hand on his back and pondered for a while, and immediately decided: "Immediately change the battle plan, order the third division and one regiment, and the second division and one regiment to immediately send small units to resist the Yue army coming from the direction of Yicheng, remember to feign retreat, lure the enemy deep, and then cut off the devil's retreat and surround it."

The five companies sent by the Second Regiment of the 1st Division should also withdraw while fighting, so as to induce the Yue army to penetrate deep into the area of Battalion Commander Zhou. The armored brigade was immediately divided into two, the 1st Tank Regiment assisted the 3rd and 2nd Divisions to encircle the Yicheng Direction of the Army, and the 2nd Tank Regiment and the 3rd Regiment of the 1st Division immediately made a detour to the area of Weishan Lake, preparing to cooperate with the 2nd Regiment to encircle the enemy in the direction of Zaozhuang! ”

Qiao Anbang paused, and then continued: "After the above troops surround the enemy in front of them, they should be given a certain amount of damage, but they should not be destroyed, so as to induce the main force of the army to come for reinforcements. ”

"Junza, is this time still a siege to send reinforcements?" Li Yifeng, the commander of the First Division, still remembered the battle of Huainan not long ago, and asked in surprise.

"Yes, it's a siege to help. However, this time the situation is completely different from Huainan. As long as the devil is fooled, we can immediately destroy the enemy in the encirclement, and then flank the reinforcements inside and outside the friendly forces on the periphery, and we will definitely be able to achieve a big victory! Qiao Anbang nodded.

After speaking, Qiao Anbang said to several subordinates: "Okay, time is pressing, let's carry out the order." ”

"Yes!" Li Yifeng and the others responded in unison, and immediately turned around and left.

…………………… On the highway from Zaozhuang to Taierzhuang, Seya Qi sat on an armored command vehicle, and personally led the 10th Wing and a chariot brigade along the road.

Suddenly, the driving armored car suddenly stopped, and the chief of staff next to him hurriedly opened the door, only to see a communications junior in the parking space hurriedly retract his feet and salute and report to Seya Kai: "General, it's not good, our army's position on the front line of Taierzhuang has been attacked by a new branch of the army, and the eighth and seventh brigades have suffered heavy losses, and the main positions such as Liujiahu have now all been lost. ”

"What? A new Chinese army? Kei Seya was shocked to hear that his two infantry brigades had been defeated at the same time.

"Yes, according to the surviving soldiers of the Eighth Brigade, this branch of the Chinese Army is well-equipped, not only has an incredible number of automatic weapons, but also is equipped with a large number of heavy artillery groups and tank armored units, and it is obviously not the troops of the 31st Division of the Chinese Army that is firmly holding Taierzhuang." Communication Shaozo hurriedly bowed his head and replied.

"An incredible number of automatic weapons? Large-scale heavy artillery groups and tank armored units? Seya Kai's heart was suddenly shocked, and he immediately lost his voice: "Baga, there is only one unit in the Chinese army that has such equipment!" ”

"The general is talking about the Qiao Anbang Department of the Chinese Army?" A staff officer next to him said with a shocked face.

"Yes!" Seya Kai's heart was awe-inspiring at this time, Qiao Anbang's salvation [***], now in the eyes of the entire invasion of China, it is notorious for being fierce, and he can annihilate the 100,000 imperial troops of the ninth, 13th, and 114th divisions with his own strength, Seya Kai knows that this is definitely not something that his detachment can defeat, although Seya Kai is very arrogant, but it does not mean that he is stupid.

After pondering for a while, Seya Kei immediately raised his head and said to the communication Shaosa, "Immediately order the troops to stop advancing, and inform Fu Rongjun's 63rd Infantry Wing to also temporarily stop advancing." ”

"Hay!" Communication Shaozuo suddenly bowed his head in response, and then turned around and left.

…………………… Guo Zhuang, the headquarters of the Tiger Ben Army.

Qiao Anbang was anxiously pacing back and forth in the headquarters, waiting for news from ahead, when suddenly, a rush of footsteps sounded behind him, and Qiao Anbang immediately turned around.

I saw Wang Gensheng rushing in, saluting Qiao Anbang and reporting: "General seat, the first division and the third division have called, and the devils who drove from Yicheng and Zaozhuang suddenly stopped advancing and did not leave. ”

"What? Not leaving? Qiao Anbang was shocked when he heard this, could it be that the devil had seen through his battle plan? If you think about it carefully, it's obviously impossible, the two sides haven't fought yet, no matter how smart Seya Kai is, it's impossible to know that the Tiger Ben Army will fight and retreat, right?
