On May 10, this was the seventh day that the Japanese Seya detachment was trapped in the Zaozhuang and Taierzhuang areas. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was decided to open an opening from Lanling Town and let the Sakamoto detachment join the trapped Seya detachment, this plan was obviously very risky, and even if the anti-encirclement deployment was made, no one was sure whether it would be able to achieve victory in the end.

The wishes are wonderful.

But whether it can be done or not, Li Delin actually has no bottom in his heart, and the waiting for the result is very tormenting, even if he is a veteran of the battlefield, he can't help but show a trace of irritability and uneasiness at this moment.

After so many years of fighting, this time he feels that the time span is the longest and the most difficult decision, winning or losing is not only related to the future and destiny of the individual, but also related to the future of this country and this nation.

Tang Keqin had already drawn out a brigade from the 52nd Army and a cavalry regiment directly under him, and quietly moved to the vicinity of Xiangcheng, just waiting for the Sakamoto detachment to join the Seya detachment, he cut off the communication between the Sakamoto detachment and the 5th Division, and surrounded the Sakamoto detachment from the periphery.

In addition, Zhang Xinchen's 59th Army, which cooperated with this plan, also sent troops to build positions on the south bank of the Yi River to block the reinforcements that the Japanese Fifth Division might send.

Zhang Xinchen and General Pang Lao's Third Army Corps had actually exhausted its strength, and Linyi City was already in danger under the siege of the Kunisaki Detachment of the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army.

Fan Songpu's 46th Army also had to take care of the security of Tancheng, and could only squeeze out a small part of its forces to support them.

The Fifth Theater made this decision, and the pressure on Linyi was greatly reduced, at least, Zhang and Pang did not have to worry about the Sakamoto detachment sneaking up on Linyi from behind, and they did not need to fight on two fronts, just concentrate on dealing with the Kunisaki detachment.

Tang Keqin's plan was supported by many generals in the five theaters, and it was not unreasonable, once Linyi was lost, then GJ in the Xuzhou area would have to fight on two fronts, and in that case, the outcome of the Battle of Taierzhuang would also be unpredictable.

This is also a realistic consideration.

Li Delin must also admit that if he does not increase the number of troops in Linyi, Zhang and Pang will have less than 20,000 horses under their command, and they will not be able to stop the menacing Guoqi detachment.

What's more, Seishiro Sakagaki is already in Linyi, and the division headquarters is located in Tangtou Town.

Therefore, Leng Feng also knows that there are some things that really can't be stopped, if no one takes the lead, then it's okay to say, now that someone has taken the lead and has the support of so many generals.

Then he can only compromise, even if he is right, it will provoke public anger, but it will not do him any good, Li Delin knows this very well.

If it was pressure from Lao Jiang's side, Lao Li might not be afraid of him, and he didn't fight to the death back then, who was afraid of whom?

At about 10 o'clock in the morning, Li Delin received news from the front that the Japanese Sakamoto detachment had crossed the original position of the defenders of Lanling Town and marched towards the Liujiahu area.

But before that, the Japanese army also suffered a big loss in Lanling Town, with at least one squadron killed and wounded.

This is not a small victory, and now it has not eaten up any strength of the Japanese army, which will be helpful for the next war of annihilation.

The question is, who is fighting this battle?

Could it be the 52nd Army?

It's not like it, the 52nd Army has long received an order to let the Japanese army in, and then to eat a squadron of the Japanese army in such a short period of time, and retreat from the province, the commander who commands this battle is definitely not simple.

Li Delin naturally thought of the possibility of the new 38th Brigade, guarding Lanling Town these days, a reinforced battalion of the new 38th Brigade is the absolute main force, and this counterattack must have been fought by them.

This is unwilling, Lao Li understands it in his heart.

When I called the headquarters of the new 38th Brigade, I asked, and sure enough, it was the reconnaissance battalion of the new 38th Brigade, but the battle lasted only half an hour from the beginning to the end, and the reconnaissance battalion had already withdrawn.

However, the Japanese army actually spent more than three hours in Lanling Town before they crossed Lanling Town, which made the staff officers of the Fifth War Zone Commander's Department puzzled.

It stands to reason that now it is like fighting a fire, and the Japanese army should not be so procrastinating, is it because they see the conspiracy?

Do you still need to see this?

It's all obvious, unless the Japanese commander is a fool.

Deliberately and directly withdraw the roadblock in front of the Japanese army, that is, to tell him that there is a huge trap ahead, and it depends on whether you can jump or not.

If you don't jump, you just stay here, I will continue to besiege the Seya detachment, and if you jump in, then I will surround and eat you too.

It's all on the table.

Japanese reinforcements from other places can't come, only the nearest Fifth Division has this ability, and the hundreds of thousands of GJ teams around are just looking at you with fierce eyes, whether you come in or not, it's all the same!

Come in, let's clean up together, if you don't come in, then stay aside and watch the show, look at me The Seya detachment is done cleaning up, and then I will free up my hands to clean you up.

Not to mention, Tang Keqin's plan is really poisonous, and this Sakamoto detachment is completely in a dilemma.

Of course, he didn't have a choice, Seishiro Sakagaki had already given him an order, go in and follow Kai Seya, be a difficult brother and a brother, there is only one task, the two of them hold together, and the longer they hold on, the better, the purpose is to drag the middle GJ team that surrounds them in the Xuzhou area, and the more the better.

Kei Seya, who was in the encirclement, heard that the Sakamoto detachment had broken through the resistance of the GJ team and was moving closer to him, which was also a boost of energy, okay, finally someone can come over and share the pressure, at least when the responsibility is held accountable in the future, there is still someone to help him resist a resistance.

Seya ****, who was in a difficult situation, desperately put together a reserve team, and began to move closer to the position of the Sakamoto detachment.

In order to give confidence to the trapped Seya, the newly appointed commander of the Second Army, Lieutenant General Prince Minoru Higashikure, personally coordinated a batch of supplies and ordered the air force to airdrop the Seya detachment.

The intensification of the Japanese army's airdrop was undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the Seya detachment in distress, at least, in the eyes of the Japanese officers and soldiers, the above did not give up on them.

The Japanese troops who were replenished were more fierce in combat and more fearless of death, and the surviving Japanese soldiers were all veterans, and they were also deeply influenced by the spirit of bushido, with strong willpower and well-trained, and were even able to expand the originally narrowed encirclement in some local battles.

On the morning of that day, the number of casualties received by the headquarters of the commander of the Fifth Theater was actually 30 percent higher than that of the previous days.

"The Japanese army is beginning to fight in a trapped, this is their last struggle, as long as we stabilize the front, the final victory will definitely belong to us!" At the regular meeting of military situation analysis, Bai Jiansheng was full of confidence and high morale.

"In the early stage, in Taierzhuang, and our week-long siege, the Japanese army paid the price of at least tens of thousands of casualties in the Taierzhuang area, which can be regarded as the largest loss of the Japanese army in a single battle since the Anti-Japanese War. Liu Weizhang said.

"Yes, even if the Sakamoto detachment joins in, the Japanese army we are surrounding now is not as strong as the original Seya detachment."

"Beware of the Japanese troops in the Lincheng area, although they are unable to support the Seya detachment due to the containment of the Sichuan Army, if they are desperate, they can also cause us trouble." Xu Yanmou, chief of staff of the theater of operations, reminded.

"Didn't Zhang Zhen's 110th Division pass?"

"In order to completely solve the two elite detachments of the Japanese Seya Detachment and the Sakamoto Detachment, it is necessary to increase the number of troops in the five theaters, and at least five to ten divisions are needed!"

"100,000 people, too many, there are no longer so many ready-made troops in our rear."

"Yes, more troops!"

"I also agree that I can send a telegram to the Wuhan Military Commission and ask the chairman to order the transfer of troops, and if we can win a huge victory in the five theaters, it will also be beneficial to the national war situation."

"What do you think, Sir Li?"

Li Delin was silent, facing the advice of his staff officers and front-line generals, it was very dangerous for the Xuzhou Fifth War Zone to increase troops.

But if there are not enough troops, it will be difficult to eat the Japanese troops in the encirclement in a short time.

Just encircling the Seya detachment and the Sakamoto detachment would require nearly 200,000 troops, and it would be necessary to deal with the attack of the Japanese army on the southern front, at least not less than that.

There are already nearly 200,000 troops in the Xuzhou area, and counting the Luxi Corps, there are as many as 2,780,000 troops.

If the troops are transferred again, the scale of the Battle of Xuzhou will be almost the same as the Battle of Songhu!

The Battle of Songhu, GJ lost hundreds of thousands of well-trained elites, that battle was a big injury, if Xuzhou came again, this China was saved, what else to resist the invasion of the Japanese invaders?

"It's okay to transfer troops, but isn't it a little too late?" Zhang Shouling, a senior staff officer of the lieutenant general of the Fifth Theater who had an opinion on Leng Feng before, stood up and said, "We obviously have a powerful mobile force, why don't we use it, and also, the honorary first division of the Luxi Corps, why don't they go south along the Jinpu Railway, aren't they claimed to be comparable to a division of the Japanese army?" ”

"The Lucy Corps has its own battle plan."

"Doesn't the Luxi Corps belong to the Fifth War Zone?"

"Now, Lu Xi is almost under the control of our army, and the main force of the 1st Division of Honor can completely move south along the Jinpu Railway and deal a fatal blow to the 10th Division of the Japanese Army, which is very beneficial for us to surround the Seya Detachment and the Sakamoto Detachment in front!"

"The Second Army of the Japanese Army in Jinan has withdrawn two mixed brigades from the northeast and moved south, and the first task of the Honor First Division is to block these two mixed brigades!"

"The blocking mission can also be taken over by the Third Army, I think this Leng Guoguang just wants to pay attention to his personal heroes, he wants to attack Jinan!"

Lieutenant General Zhang Shouling's assertion immediately aroused a lot of discussion.

"There is no indication that Leng Guoguang has the idea of attacking Jinan, right?" Xu Yanmou stood up and said a fair word.

"Yes, what is Leng Guoguang doing in Jinan?" Liu Weizhang also asked.

"There is no doubt that I am so happy and want to be in the limelight!"

"Ridiculous, this kind of irresponsible speculation is groundless, although Leng Guoguang I don't have a deep relationship with him, but he is by no means an arrogant person, on the contrary, he is a very modest and low-key young man, you are speculating here and slandering a young junior, it's just shameless!" Sun Zhenyi, deputy commander-in-chief of the theater, slapped the table and shouted angrily.

"Brother Decao, dissipate your anger, if you have something to say, don't get angry!" Deputy Chief of Staff Wang Hongshao hurriedly stood up, comforted Sun Zhen, and pulled him to sit down.

This is the first time that a good war situation analysis meeting has finally turned into a trial meeting for the individual of "Leng Guoguang".

These people don't have other skills, so they will only fight in the nest, and they will be jealous of their abilities.

also rely on the old and sell the old one by one, these high-level staff members, when it comes to the critical moment, they can't stand up one by one, and their mouths are quite neat, Li Delin really wants them to roll up and roll out.

What Leng Feng wants to do, Li Delin can guess some, he also has this temptation, although he is in the game, his mind is very clear.

Regarding the use of the First Division of Honor, Li Delin insisted on not moving, which made Zhang Shouling and others feel dissatisfied, thinking that he was too partial, but there was no way to make Li Delin the commander of the theater, and Bai Jiansheng and others did not support them.

However, as for the increase of troops, Mr. Jiang in Wuhan thought of going ahead, and he seemed to be aware of the problem of insufficient troops in the Fifth Theater, and had ordered the transfer of Zhou Zhe's 75th Army, Li Xianzhou's 92nd Army, Dong Zhao's 28th Division in Shaanxi, and Feng Zhi'an's 77th Army to advance from the garrison and gallop to the aid of the Fifth Theater under the starry night.
