"It seems that Chief Li's determination is very difficult." In the Pukou headquarters, Leng Feng and Qiu Qingquan waited for two hours, but there was still no movement from Xuzhou.

"Involving the transfer of more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, life and death, if you are in the position of Chief Li, I am afraid it will be difficult to make up your mind." Qiu Qingquan said.

"The fighter plane is fleeting, he is procrastinating, and we can't but can't wait for him to make a decision." Leng Feng said.

"You mean, let's move first?" Qiu Qingquan groaned slightly.

"What do you think?"

"Such a big action, do you want to ask the peak first?"

"Aren't we under the control of the Fifth War Zone now, isn't this peak Chief Li?" Leng Feng smiled, that means, we even hide the direct boss of Chief Li, why bother to embarrass those people above?

"Do you want to cut first and then play again, and you have forgotten all the lessons you learned in Guanghuamen?" Qiu Qingquan jumped up and said.

"I haven't forgotten, it's just that Chief Gui is too hypocritical, and if you have to get rid of my regimental leader, I can't help it."

"Too pretentious?" Qiu Qingquan smiled bitterly, if Gui Yongqing heard this, he would still vomit three taels of blood in anger?

"There is a way, the general is outside, and the king's order is not subject to it, is it possible that those of us who lead the troops will only ask for instructions and report before fighting?" Leng Feng asked rhetorically.

"Having said that, we ...... such a big move"

"Are our actions big, mobilizing troops, arranging defenses, all of which are within our purview, and it seems that we have not exceeded them, right?"

"But, ...... are you" Qiu Qingquan suddenly found that his words were untenable. Cold front mobilization. Change of Forces. Everything is within the scope of his authority, and before that attack intention, who can say that he acted on his own?

What's more, this is just a troop movement, a change of guard, and no combat mission has been issued, so it is not a foul at all.

He simply moved his troops to the corresponding positions, and as soon as the order was given, he could quickly attack. And save the trouble of intermediate transfer and preparation.

Even if the final plan is stranded, it will only be regarded as if there is no such thing as existing, and what has not been done can't be said to be cut first and then played, right?

"You, you, you're too cunning, no wonder, you just calculate the Japanese, even Shangfeng, do I want to stay away from you. One day, I will be counted by you. Qiu Qingquan helplessly pointed at Leng Feng and smiled bitterly.

"Rest assured. For you, Brother Qiu, I have always been straightforward and will not play tricks. Leng Feng said solemnly.

"Leng Feng, I didn't misunderstand you, you, the future is above me!" Qiu Qingquan felt a trace of emotion in his heart, it is not terrible for a person to be bold and reckless, but a bold person is as careful as a hair and as cunning as a fox, so it is difficult to deal with.

Leng Feng is undoubtedly such a person, bold, but thoughtful, familiar with human feelings, how old is he, how did he cultivate?

Could it be that this amnesia can make a complete change in people?

"It's all Brother Qiu."

"Without me, I think you can get ahead quickly, Shangfeng gave us a 105 number this time, you haven't thought about why?"

"Brother Qiu tested me?" Leng Feng smiled slightly.

"Tell me what you think?"

"Shangfeng just wants to split up the National Salvation Division, but the time has not yet come." Leng Feng smiled, I can't see this, this is not in vain to blind the evolution of thousands of years of civilization.

"Then why don't you just give the numbers to the two divisions?"

"Do you really want me to say it?" Leng Feng stared slightly, glanced at Qiu Qingquan, and asked slowly.

"Looks like you already know." Qiu Qingquan sighed, he was a little unaccustomed to the above actions, but in them, some things could not be avoided.

Suspicion, infighting, when is this coming, and there is still the mind to engage in these.

"Report!"

"I just received a telegram that the 46th Brigade of the 138th Division has arrived in Shangqiu, and it is expected to arrive in Xuzhou early tomorrow morning, and then go south to Suxian."

"Lao Zhou is here?"

"It seems that Lao Zhou can't avoid this battle." Leng Feng smiled, "The brigade commander of the 138th Brigade is the commander of the third brigade of our teaching corps, Ma Weilong, right?" ”

"Yes, most of the officers and soldiers of the 138th Brigade are also composed of officers and soldiers of the general team that I broke through."

"That's just right, it's a pity that Bengbu was occupied by the Japanese, and the military can't come over, so they may have to go another way." Leng Feng smiled.

"With so many refugees, if we take the road or the rural road, there is not enough transportation, and it is too time-consuming to transfer, and the fastest and most effective way is to take the railway." Leng Feng said.

Qiu Qingquan nodded, didn't he know that now the southern line of Jinpu Road from Bengbu to Chuxian was occupied by the Japanese, and if we wanted to use railway transportation, we must control this railway in our own hands.

Of course, in addition to the south line of Jinpu Road, you can also take the Huainan Railway, which is relatively still in the control area of ****, but it will be relatively troublesome to transfer and more expensive.

"Long Yingqin!"

"Here!"

"Order Liao Sen to withdraw the 37th Brigade from Dongge and Xige Town, and pull the troops to Hezhuang and Wenshanji to rest!" Leng Feng ordered categorically.

"Yes!"

"Guo Weiquan!"

"Here!"

"Call Wang Bin and Yao Heizi!"

"Boss, are you looking for us?" Wang Bin and Yao Heizi walked into the headquarters together.

"Wang Bin, you take a team to infiltrate Liuhe County with makeup, and give me a clear defense of the devils in Liuhe County, Yao Heizi, you take a team, carry a radio station, go to Taipingji, pay attention to hiding your identity, once the Japanese army comes from the road, report immediately, don't have a head-on exchange of fire with the Japanese army, your mission this time is reconnaissance, understand?"

"Boss, are we going to fight Liuhe County?" Wang Bin asked excitedly.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, you two get ready, and set off immediately!" Leng Feng ordered.

"Yes!" The two gave a military salute and quickly left.

"There is only one squadron of the Liuhe Japanese garrison, plus some puppet military police. But want to take it down. It's not an easy thing to do. Qiu Qingquan said.

"There's no time to lose. The new defeat of the 10th Brigade of the Japanese Army is a good time for us to pursue the victory, once we miss it, the Japanese reinforcements arrive, and it will be much more difficult to take Liuhe. Leng Feng said.

"Well, it's a good opportunity, if we can win Liuhe, our situation will be very different." Qiu Qingquan nodded.

Shunroku Hata also held a military council in the city of Nanjing. To study how to restore Nanjing's municipal and urban population in the face of the current situation, especially after the reoccupation of Nanjing.

The Japanese Empire occupied China in order to obtain the resources of this land, including human resources, in order to strengthen itself and achieve the goal of dominating the world.

Although the 13th Division was on the offensive, its north and south sides had already been occupied by Chinese troops, and if it were not for this, Shunroku Hata would not have ordered the 13th Division to abandon its original strategic plan. And turned offense to defense.

The 3rd Division and the 3rd Division were badly damaged by the defeat in Nanjing, although they could draw part of their forces to cross the river and go north. However, the officers and men were tired and needed to rest for at least two or three days.

There are also boats, food, ammunition, etc., which are needed to cross the river, heavy weapons and cars, and the man and light weapons can be transported in small boats, but heavy artillery is not.

There are also armored vehicles, barges that do not have enough load-bearing, and crane equipment, which cannot be done at all.

And these equipment, before leaving, were either disassembled and transported away, or they were blown up, and they could not be transferred from the country for a while.

Without heavy equipment, the Japanese army would not be able to carry out landing operations, not to mention that they also knew that the opponent had a heavy artillery regiment in his hands and there was no shortage of shells.

This hasty crossing of the river and fighting is tantamount to sending oneself to death.

Therefore, it would be irrational to land directly from Pukou, and you can only choose another place to cross the river.

The meeting decided that the 6th Division would draw out an infantry wing as the mainstay, form a detachment, land at Yuxikou, and go north along the Huainan Railway, and then the 3rd and 9th Divisions would each draw out a complete infantry wing, equipped with a cavalry wing, a mountain artillery brigade, a heavy machine gun brigade, a baggage wing, a field hospital, and so on, to form a mixed brigade, with Major General Nobushi Iide, commander of the 18th Brigade, as the commander, and three days later, cross the river from Zhenjiang to the north.

In addition, a wing of Japanese troops drawn from the 101st Division had already landed in Yangzhou, and as a forward force, they quickly moved closer to the direction of Yizheng and Liuhe.

"I call this plan 'strangulation', and I hope that all the gentlemen will cooperate with their hearts and be sure to wipe out Leng Feng and his Yaksha troops in the Pukou area!" Shunroku Hata slammed the table angrily, and there was a cold light in his eyes.

"Hay!"

"Let's go and prepare, Muto Daisake."

"Hay!" Deputy Chief of the General Staff Akira Muto was left behind.

"Muto-kun, you leave for Yangzhou immediately......"

At two o'clock in the afternoon of the 5th, the Kondo Brigade organized an attack again, and this time the Kondo Brigade invested two squadrons of troops, still under the command of Ichiro Ozawa, to launch a fierce attack on the position of the National Salvation Division in Yuquan Town.

Although this was only a small-scale, small-intensity battle, its tragedy was no less than that of a big battle, and the first battalion of the special service regiment was the old foundation of the lone army battalion, and its military quality was no less than that of the Japanese army.

The weapons of the two sides are equal, and the combat power is equal, which is a close match.

couldn't attack for a long time, Ozawa Ichiro's eyes were red, and he personally waved his sword to charge, and was almost lifted by a shot, but he was still defeated.

Realizing that after changing opponents, the Chinese army on the opposite side is no longer the same rabble.

Goto didn't expect a small Tangquan town to be so difficult to fight, remembering that at the beginning, a small team dared to chase after hundreds of Chinese troops, and could occupy a city without firing a shot, but now it actually flew for half a day, with more than 100 casualties, and actually failed to capture a small town?

Goto felt that his face was gloomy, and he felt that it was a shame.

"Tell Ozawa that if he can't take Tangquan Town before dark, he will cut himself." Goto has lost patience, no matter what, he must take Tangquan Town today, so as to prove to the division commander that these garrison brigades are also capable of fighting and can also establish martial arts for the empire.

"Hay!"

"The Japanese are in a hurry, look at this offensive, they want to capture Tangquan Town before dark, Guangsheng, fight steadily, don't be afraid of little devils, just consume with little devils." Shangguan Zhibiao personally inspected the position and instructed Sun Guangsheng, the commander of the first company guarding the position.

"You can rest assured, deputy of the regiment, I will be crucified here, and I will never let the little devil pass by me!" Sun Guangsheng stroked his shiny head and said loudly.

"Okay, beware of the Japanese army's sneak attack!" Shangguan Zhibiao reminded before leaving.

"Understood."
