Pheasant and set, tiger Ben army Longshan military camp.

Qiao Anbang was inspecting the training of the new Fifth Division accompanied by Liang Jiahan, and while he was walking, Yali suddenly trotted all the way from the direction of the headquarters, Qiao Anbang stopped and turned around, and when Yali came to him, he was the first to ask, "What's wrong?" What's so in a hurry? ”

"Report to the military seat, the third flight team of our flight regiment reports that the army in Central China has made a big move." Yali hurriedly snapped up and stood up in salute, her towering breasts rising and falling because of panting, panting.

"What's the big move?" Qiao Anbang said in his heart.

"The army in the south of the Yangtze River is assembling on a large scale, its vanguard has begun to cross the Yangtze River to the north, and there is a wing of its Sixth Division stationed in Hefei that has already left Hefei City and is heading north." Yali replied breathlessly.

"Huh? It seems that the devil is going to attack, so fast! Qiao Anbang pondered for a moment and said, "Immediately order the flying regiment to send a reconnaissance plane to the north of Xuzhou to reconnoiter the situation there!" ”

"Yes!" Yali hurriedly stepped forward and just wanted to turn around and leave.

But Qiao Anbang waved his hand and shouted: "In addition, order the first to fourth divisions to immediately enter the first level of combat readiness and be ready to fight at any time!" ”

"Yes!" Yali saluted again, and quickly turned and walked away quickly.

Seeing Yali leave, Qiao Anbang didn't have the heart to continue the inspection, and immediately returned to the headquarters with Liang Jiahan.

………………………………………………………………………………………

On the highway from Hefei to Dingyuan, the 13th Infantry Wing, the main force of the Sixth Division of the Chinese Army, under the leadership of Wing Commander Hidemitsu Nakano, was rapidly advancing towards Dingyuan.

Since the Nanjing Massacre did not take place, Gu Shoufu was not transferred to the mainland at this time, but still served as the lieutenant general and division commander of the Sixth Division.

The Sixth Division has not suffered any heavy losses since the beginning of the 77 Incident, and the whole division is full of veterans, well-equipped, and strong in combat, and it is a first-class main division of the Central China Army, which is also the reason why the Sixth Division of the Sixth Division in Jiangbei is enough to deter Li Pinxian's subordinates who tried to take advantage of the defeat of the army in Huainan and go south to counterattack.

The strength of the sixth division's combat effectiveness, from Gu Shoufu dared to send only one wing to attack Dingyuan, you can get a glimpse of one or two, if there is no strength, Gu Shoufu will not dare to be so big, a wing will dare to attack Dingyuan, you must know that there are still several divisions of Li Pinxian's department stationed behind Dingyuan, there are tens of thousands of people!

The 13th Division did not have any intention of concealing its whereabouts, but marched towards Dingyuan along the road, and its trail naturally could not hide from the scouts of the 11th Army.

Fengyang City, headquarters of the 11th Army.

Since the change of defense with the Huben army, Li Pinxian set up his headquarters in Fengyang, and in those days when Qiao Anbang led his troops north to Xuzhou, several of his divisions took advantage of the initiative of the army to shrink their forces, and successively recovered the lost territories in Huainan such as Dingyuan, Mingguang, Shou County, and Changfeng County.

Since recovering most of Huainan, Li Pinxian can be said to be proud, not only did Chairman Jiang from Wuhan send a commendation telegram, but he also expanded the army by another division with the batch of weapons left for them by the Tiger Ben Army before it went north.

In the headquarters, Li Pinxian was humming a small song with half a cigarette in his mouth and closing his eyes to recuperate, and suddenly, a rush of footsteps sounded from outside the headquarters, Li Pinxian opened his eyes and saw his chief of staff hurriedly walking in.

Without waiting for Li Pinxian to ask, the chief of staff said anxiously: "Commander, it's not good, I said that I have called." ”

"What? Said army? How many people? Got there? Li Pinxian suddenly got up when he heard this, and half of the cigarette in his mouth fell out of nervousness.

"According to the report of the scouts, the strength of the army is about one wing, and it is currently advancing rapidly towards Dingyuan, and it is expected that it will be able to kill Dingyuan soon." The chief of staff replied urgently.

"A wing?" Li Pinxian pondered for a moment when he heard this, and then said: "Fuck it, Lao Tzu now has six divisions, and he is still afraid that he will have a wing of little devils?" Ordered the troops to assemble immediately, galloped to aid Dingyuan, and told Li Erbao to give Dingyuan to Lao Tzu to defend, otherwise Lao Tzu would kill him! ”

"Yes!" The chief of staff hurriedly stepped forward and immediately turned to leave, the chief was determined to fight, as the chief of staff, he was naturally not good at saying anything, he couldn't be scared by a wing of devils and tens of thousands of troops fled north in a hurry, right? In that case, even if the Fifth War Zone does not pursue them, Chairman Chiang will not let them go.

…………………………

In Dingyuan County, all the officers and soldiers of the 45th Division of the 48th Army of the 11th Group Army stationed in the county town have entered the positions inside and outside the city, and the division commander Li Erbao is patrolling the city with several combat staff officers and guards. When you win this battle, Lao Tzu will give each of you a reward! ”

The officers and men of the 45th Division knew that the commander of the division was a person, and it was impossible to honor the reward he said, but the officers and men did not dare to say it, and most of the officers and men still silently began to make preparations before the war.

It didn't take long for nearly 200 people from the forward squadron of the 13th Wing of the Japanese Army to swagger to the outside of Dingyuan County, and what is unbelievable is that this devil forward squadron did not stop to build a position, but after a short stop, it launched an attack on the field position of the 45th Division.

Seeing this, Li Erbao, the division commander at the head of the city, was immediately furious, pointed to the outside of the city and scolded angrily: "Damn, the little devil is really arrogant, even this person dares to attack Lao Tzu's division?" Order the 46th Regiment to attack immediately and defeat these little devils for Lao Tzu! ”

But before Li Erbao's order was conveyed, [***] guarding outside the city exchanged fire with the devils, and what just made Li Erbao incredible was that the 46th Regiment was defeated as soon as the battle began, and the devil squadron took advantage of the situation to rush into the defensive position of the 46th Regiment and began to pursue the 46th Regiment along the communication trench.

It wasn't until the officers and soldiers of the 46th Regiment retreated to the city that Li Erbao could react, and immediately scolded angrily: "Stop, stop for Lao Tzu, who made you retreat?" Rush back to Lao Tzu! ”

However, the officers and soldiers of the 46th Regiment, who had already become frightened birds, did not pay attention to Li Erbao's shouting at all, and everyone poured into the city from the open city gate, and the devils followed in an instant, and the defenders on the city tower did not dare to shoot for fear of injuring their own people by mistake.

Taking advantage of this gap, the devil rushed into Dingyuan County with the 46th regiment, and several combat staff officers at the head of the city hurriedly persuaded: "Division, the general trend has gone, hurry up and escape, otherwise it will be too late when the main force of the devil arrives." ”

Li Erbao usually deducted the salaries of the officers and men of the 45th Division, and never knew how to sympathize with his subordinates, and the officers and men of the 45th Division did not want to work for him at all, so as soon as the devils attacked, they collapsed at the touch of a button, turned around and fled.

Seeing that the devil had rushed into the city, Li Erbao was already in a state of confusion, and as soon as the staff officer's words fell, he nodded in agreement, and immediately took a few personal soldiers to quickly go down the city wall, and fled in a hurry in the direction of Fengyang.

In less than half an hour, an infantry squadron of the 13th Infantry Wing of the Yue Army easily captured the county town of Dingyuan, which was defended by a full division, and almost created a miracle in the history of modern warfare, and this miracle was a shame for the Chinese people.

It is even more humiliating than the 128th cavalry of the army to easily capture Chengde, the 45th Division has a strength of **1,000 people, most of them are said to be equipment, and the ammunition is relatively sufficient, if Li Pinxian can replace Li Erbao, the commander of the straw bag division, as soon as possible, and replace it with a truly talented soldier to command, I dare not say that with one division to annihilate the 13th Wing of the Yue Army, it should not be a problem to block them for at least ten days and half a month, right?

……………………

Fengyang, headquarters of the 11th Army.

The chief of staff hurriedly ran into the headquarters again and reported to Li Pinxian: "General seat, it's not good, Dingyuan has been lost." ”

"What? What did you say? It's only been less than an hour, and Dingyuan has been lost? Li Pinxian obviously didn't believe it.

"Back to the general seat, this is the case, the 45th Division fled in fear, and a squadron of the army captured Dingyuan County in less than half an hour, the defenders were completely defeated, and Dingyuan County was lost!" The chief of staff replied with a heavy nod.

"This dog's Li Erbao, Lao Tzu also killed him! Lao Tzu asked him to hold on for five hours, and he didn't even hold on for half an hour, this waste! When Li Pinxian heard this, he suddenly burst into a rage and roared.

"Commander, now is not the time to be held responsible, Dingyuan has been lost, and the army is coming straight to Fengyang. Anyway, the pontoon bridge built by the Tiger Ben Army last time is still there, and we can cross the river quickly! The chief of staff cautiously suggested.

"The devil has only one wing, do we have to flee without a fight?" Li Pinxian suddenly fell into hesitation, he was a group army, and he was driven back to the north bank of the Huai River by a wing of the little devils, and when the news spread about this matter, he Li Pinxian could be killed by a head.

"Commander, don't you know, the devil is not the only wing, according to reliable intelligence, the main force of the Central China Front is crossing the river on a large scale, and we believe that we should withdraw to the north bank of the Huai River as soon as possible, and then rely on the Huai River to block the army, otherwise once the main force of the army is attacked, we may not even be able to hold the Huai River danger!" The chief of staff patiently persuaded.

Li Pinxian pondered for a moment, and finally sighed and said: "Okay, order the troops to cross the river immediately, and after crossing the Huai River, blow up all the pontoon bridges!" The pontoon bridge must not be left to the person himself! ”

"Yes!" The chief of staff breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stepped forward to respond, and immediately left. He knew that there was only a dead end to stay in Huainan, and only to retreat to the north bank, even if he could not resist the attack of the Yue army, he could retreat to the north, and if he fought against the water in the south of the Huai River, there would really be only one dead end, after all, the 11th Group Army was not a tiger army, and it had the determination and strength to break the cauldron and fight against the water.

ps: There are more than two hours, and there are still three chapters left, I'm afraid it won't be finished before twelve o'clock, but there must be six more, and it will be like this before one o'clock at the latest, and I will do what I say, even if it is a little late, please forgive me. (Hey, this month's attendance bonus is gone...... ）
