"Degong, you seem to have a lot of respect for this cold front?" Bai Jiansheng asked, although he admitted that Leng Feng's achievements were rarely comparable to those among the **** generals, but he would not let his old partner be so respected, could it be that these old guys have lived to dogs all these years?

Bai Jiansheng is still quite conceited, which is almost a common problem of capable people.

"If Leng Guoguang had been born twenty years earlier, I am afraid that there would be no business for you and me in today's China." Li Delin said very seriously.

"Ahh

Bai Jiansheng was not only surprised, he was simply shocked, but these words came out of Li Delin's mouth, who was Li Delin, and who had served him?

"Jiansheng, if you and I were twenty years younger, would we be able to do what he did in a war situation like Nanjing?" Li Delin knew that Bai Jiansheng was an arrogant person, if he couldn't convince him, how could he let him do his best to help him persuade Lao Jiang?

Before the age of twenty-five, he was already a major general, and he was obtained by relying on his military exploits, and he had tens of thousands of male soldiers under his command, although they rose a little fast, and their foundation was not very stable.

But in time, as long as it does not fall too early, it will definitely become a hero.

"Degong, there are a lot of uncertainties in the 'April Fool's Day' plan, this is a very risky operation, are you sure you want to support this cold front?"

"In fact, the 'April Fools' plan has eliminated a large part of the adventure, the first part is similar to the Lunan battle plan we formulated, and this is only the second stage of implementation in the future." Li Delin explained.

"Phased implementation again?"

"Isn't there no way, if you follow the plan at the beginning, then there is no need for this, we have considered a variety of situations and factors in detail, and then set this slightly conservative plan." Li Delin said.

"Or is it too risky to ensure that the Japanese army will not find out about this plan?".

"No, as long as the command agrees, we are sure to do it." Li Delin said solemnly, "This plan has already begun. ”

"Started?"

"Yes, the first division of the first division has already begun to compete with the command headquarters from the fifth theater." Li Delin said, "The first step of the plan is to convince the Japanese that the Honor 1st Division will be transferred out of the Fifth Theater, so as to induce the Japanese army in Central China to advance northward. ”

Bai Jiansheng nodded, the Japanese army in Central China was scared by the Honor First Division, and as soon as the Honor First Division left, they naturally would not let go of this opportunity and quickly went north.

"As long as the Japanese army in Central China moves, then the Japanese army in North China will inevitably move immediately, and the credit for occupying Xuzhou is the first thing that both Japanese armies want to get."

"Induce the Isoya Division to venture south?" Bai Jiansheng knew very well that the Japanese army in North China had been moving south, and if it hadn't been for the repeated obstructions of the Japanese base camp, I am afraid that a fight would have started by now.

However, without the cooperation of the Japanese army in Central China, the Japanese army in North China did not dare to easily launch a campaign to attack Xuzhou.

"Sakagaki and Isoya are both competitive personalities, and this is an opportunity for us, and the core of the 'April Fool's Day' plan is to take advantage of the weakness of the Japanese army to compete for merit and conceit to lure the Japanese army to the grave." Li Delin said.

"The Japanese Isoya Division plus Sakagaki's Fifth Division, the final strength may add up to more than 80,000 people, and even 100,000 people are hard to say." Bai Jiansheng said, "And they also have air superiority, and we can concentrate at least thirty divisions to compete with them." ”

"That's right, at least thirty divisions." Li Delin agreed with Bai Jiansheng's judgment very much.

"So how many do you have now?"

"There are less than twenty on the north line of Jinpu Road."

"The gap is one-third, even if the first division of honor can defeat three with one, then there are at least seven shortages, this is just a match, if you want to achieve your plan, you need at least ten divisions or more!" Bai Jiansheng said.

"No, when the quantity changes, a qualitative change will be formed, and when the power reaches a balance, a little bit of strength can pry the whole battle situation." Li Delin shook his head and said.

"Having said that, how can you do it?" Bai Jiansheng asked with a headache.

"There are not many soldiers, but the elite is valuable, although there are many troops in the Fifth Theater, there are not many elites, except for us, there is only one central army in the Fifth Theater now, and that is not sent by Mr. Jiang himself." When Li Delin talked about this, he was angry in his heart, even if your old Jiang was in Songhu and suffered heavy casualties in the Central Army in Nanjing, you should not be like this, even if you send a central army, you will have to do the work of those local overlords.

"Duke De, you don't have to worry about this, if you really fight, Mr. Jiang will give you more troops." Bai Jiansheng said, if Lao Jiang really doesn't give Li Delin support, then he will lose the military and popular support of the whole country, which is more important, he still knows which is more important.

Li Delin also knew that Lao Jiang did not dare to risk the world's disapproval, so he took over as the commander of the Fifth Theater of Operations.

"I don't want miscellaneous troops, and I ask them not to come, they will be in a mess, and the logistics and supplies will consume my fifth war zone to death!" Li Delin very much agrees with Leng Feng's view on this point.

It is not a good thing to have more troops, and if you command it, if you don't take care of it a little, you will poke a big basket, and besides, the number of troops is equal to an increase in strength.

The Japanese wish that you would transfer all your troops to the Xuzhou battlefield, so that they could come and eat your well-trained troops one by one, and when the time comes, you will continue to fight with nothing.

In fact, the Japanese army launched the Jinpu Road operation with this goal.

The Japanese base camp believes that Xuzhou is a military town, the geographical location is very important, Jinpu Road and Longhai Railway intersect in the territory, once Xuzhou is occupied, Longhai Road is in danger of being cut off, so it is judged that the squadron will definitely defend Xuzhou, and the squadron will continue to increase the number of troops in Xuzhou, which is an opportunity to eat up China's elite troops.

Eat the Chinese troops with the strongest combat effectiveness, then China can only surrender obediently.

The Japanese have been dreaming of this for a long time, but unfortunately, it is just a dream.

Bai Jiansheng closed his eyes, he had to think about this problem, and he couldn't make a decision easily.

"Leng Feng was accepted as a disciple by Yang Gengguang, do you know?".

"What?" Bai Jiansheng opened his eyes, revealing a look of surprise.

"My feeling is that this time Yang Gengguang is here for Leng Feng." Li Delin said, "He also very much agrees with the 'April Fool's Day' plan, if you can say that Liu Weizhang moves, let's say that the chances of moving Mr. Jiang are even greater." ”

"Liu Weizhang has always been steady, I'm afraid he won't listen to you and me." Bai Jiansheng smiled bitterly.

"Whether it succeeds or not, you have to give it a try, how long does Mr. Jiang plan to stay in Xuzhou?"

"It is estimated that I will leave tomorrow, and the GMD Extraordinary National Congress will be held on the 29th, which was set a year ago, and we must rush back." Bai Jiansheng said.

"I'll meet Mr. Jiang in person tonight." Li Delin decided.

"I'll be with you." Bai Jiansheng said.

Leng Feng was not interested in the red tape that ushered in the send-off, and drove directly back to Xiaolou, he was a small official, and Lao Jiang would not summon him for a while.

As soon as Yang Jie arrived at Xiaolou, he was called away by a phone call.

At this time, Lao Chiang had already arrived at the headquarters of the commander of the Fifth Theater, and after a short rest, he convened a meeting of the principal military and political chiefs of the Fifth Theater to report on the deployment of defenses in the theater.

In the large war room, the stars will shine together.

"The area north of Xuzhou is suitable for defensive operations, especially the Taierzhuang area east of Jinpu Road, close to the Lunan Mountains and the Grand Canal, the terrain is complex, the Japanese army is not familiar with the terrain here, our army can lure the enemy into here, concentrate several times the force, and fight it a war of annihilation." Liu Weizhang pointed on the map.

Syllable. Syllable. Syllable......

"Okay, this is the Lunan battle plan jointly formulated by the Military Command Department and the Fifth War Zone, I think it's okay, what do you think?" Lao Jiang asked.

"This plan is very good, if we can concentrate our efforts on destroying the Japanese army, we will definitely be able to buy a certain amount of time for the transfer of our rear."

"Yes, if you play it well, this game of chess will be alive."

"What about the south of Jinpu Road?"

"The Japanese army in Central China was heavily damaged by me, and there is no plan to go north for the time being, the Fifth Theater has deployed four armies south of the Huai River, with nearly 100,000 troops, even if the Japanese army has an attempt to go north, it can be completely blocked, in addition, there is also a section of XSJ that will cooperate with the guerrilla attack on the southern line of Jinpu Road to contain the Japanese army, and the 18th Army in North China will also send troops to contain and harass the Japanese army moving south."

"Does the High Command have a judgment on the next move of the Japanese army?"

"According to the information currently available, the Japanese army continues to increase its troops, and it is very likely that it will launch an attack on our southern Lunan and Xuzhou areas in the early or middle of next month, and the key target is Xuzhou, and the Japanese army in Shanxi is resting, but it is also possible to respond to the attack of the Japanese army in Shandong." Liu Weizhang said.

"Director Liu, why is there no mention of the Honorary First Division in this plan?"

"This ......"

"The Honorable 1st Division fought hard in the Nanjing and Chuzhou areas for several months, suffered heavy casualties, and the officers and men were exhausted, so the high command decided to transfer it to the rear to rest and recuperate and fight again." Lin Wei stood up and said.

"I want to transfer the first division of honor to ......"

"How can this battle be fought, and the best ones are gone?"

"Now there is no central army in the fifth theater, this is too deceitful......

“……”

The generals have discussed one by one, and some have already publicly expressed their dissatisfaction, the Fifth War Zone is not raised by the stepmother, Lao Jiang cherishes his feathers so much, and he is not keeping them to deal with himself later.

"Silence, silence!" Li Delin stood up and said greatly.

"The achievements of the Honorable First Division are obvious to all, and it is normal for people to turn back to the rear to rest, however, please also ask Mr. Jiang to consider the actual situation of the Fifth Theater, once the Honorable Division is transferred, the Japanese army in the Jiangnan area is bound to move north rapidly, and at that time, the Fifth Theater will fight on two fronts, and the Lunan battle plan will come to naught." Li Delin said.

"Degong, if you transfer the first division of honor, it is not that you will not send troops to the Fifth War Zone, you don't have to worry about this, Mr. Jiang has ordered Li Yannian's Corps in Fujian, Lu Xiong's Corps in Yunnan, and the newly formed 200 divisions to be ready to join the Fifth War Zone at any time." Lin Wei hurriedly explained.

"These are beyond the reach of the whip, if there is a fight tomorrow, how many days will they be able to go to the battlefield?"

Lin Wei was dumbfounded all of a sudden, he didn't expect Li Delin's emotions to be so excited.
