Chapter 416: Ambition is Bound to Achieve

No reinforcements!

At least not for a short time!

Ryokaku Yesaku Dazuo received a telegram from the headquarters of the 13th Division, clearly telling him the news that his wing could only fight alone now.

He now has two choices, one is to wait for help, the other is to break through, and he has to break through immediately, as a veteran, Liangjiao Ye Zuo smelled a trace of danger.

He was anxious for a meeting of officers above the squadron leader to discuss a way out.

Most of the officers insisted on holding on to the rescue, believing that the Imperial Japanese Army was invincible, and that it was only a temporary predicament, and that as long as they persisted, victory would still belong to them.

But there are also those who are in favor of breaking through, after all, the 65th Wing is now surrounded on all sides, and the reinforcements are far away, even if the existence of the 'strangulation' plan allows them to be used as bait to firmly absorb the 1st Division of Honor, but what about the troops outflanked from the periphery of the 1st Division of Honor?

"Dazuo, the 'strangulation' plan has just begun, and our combat strength is still there, although we have tried to break through today, but it is just to test the weakness of the defense of the Zhina." The deputy of the 65th Wing, Koizumi Shaoza's fierce opposition immediately broke through.

"Koizumi-kun is right, my troops can hold out for at least three to five days." A Japanese captain waved his hand very conceitedly.

"I'll be able to hold out for another three days!"

"My troops have suffered heavy losses and can only last a day at most."

"There are less than five bases of artillery ammunition, and according to today's way of playing, my artillery is estimated to only last two days, and if there are still some breakthroughs left, there will be even less time."

……

"Silence!"

"There is little hope for ground support, our only possibility is that there is still air support, tomorrow, the front command will give us a batch of ammunition and supplies, so that we can support it for a longer time!"

"Dazuo, what are the orders of the Front Command?"

"The Front Command ordered us to hold on and wait for reinforcements, and the Ushijima detachment is launching a fierce attack on Pukou. Pukou is less than thirty kilometers away from us, and the Iizuka detachment is also moving westward with all its might, and it is expected to be able to join our army in two to three days. The two corners said slowly.

"That's holding on to help!"

"Yes. Never break through, that's a coward's behavior! ”

"Fight the people of China to the end!"

"It is a soldier's duty to obey orders!"

"Die on the battlefield and be loyal to the emperor!"

Long live the Emperor! The Great Japanese Empire will win!

Liangjiao Yezuo frowned slightly, of course he knew the orders of the front army headquarters, but his direct superior. The commander of the 13th Division, Di Libing, gave him an ambiguous order.

As for the "strangulation" plan, the two-cornered operation only learned later, and before, he did not receive any information about this plan.

It was only when he led the 65th Wing to attack Pukou that the staff of the Central China Front Command began to formulate this plan, and when he and the 1st Division of Honor had already fought, this plan was only a string of words on paper.

It was only three days before he really came into contact with this plan, and before his back road was cut off, he received a top-secret telegram from Nanjing, which contained the "strangulation" plan.

The "strangle" plan was to use his 65th wing as bait. Firmly attract the 1st Honor Division of the China Army around him, like a solid magnet, and then the Japanese army will surround the 1st Honor Division from the outside, and when the time is ripe, it will attack inside and outside and annihilate the 1st Honor Division.

The plan was very good, it can be said to be a genius idea, but the only fatal thing was that the front army in Nanjing simply did not have time to complete the deployment and deployment of troops.

In the Battle of Nanjing, the Honorable 1st Division had already crippled two divisions of the Japanese army. In a hurry, where do they move troops from, besides, it takes time to transfer troops.

And just when Liangjiaoye was preparing to withdraw to Chuxian. The Honorary First Division took the lead and occupied Wuyi Town, cutting off his back road.

Then, the 6th Division sent troops to force its way across the Yangtze River in an attempt to occupy Yuxikou and attack the 1st Division of Honor from the west. The Iizuka detachment that landed in Yangzhou, the main force of the Ninth Division, and so on.

Of course, part of the main force of the 13th Division was planned to go south.

This seemingly genius perfect idea tore the opponent apart in an instant, and the front command did not have any alternatives to this plan at all, or did not take into account some circumstances at all.

Tearing down the east wall and repairing the west wall is completely chasing the opponent, and in such a situation, the two corners of the industry do not see the possibility of success of this plan at all.

But some people do not give up, thinking that even if the expected goal cannot be achieved, at least they can inflict heavy damage on the opponent, and continue to invest troops and resources for this plan.

"Feng, this is a deciphered top-secret telegram from the Japanese army, and part of the content of the 'strangulation' plan is in it." In order to decipher the secret telegram of the Japanese army, Wu Xiaoyun has not rested for more than ten hours.

When she personally brought these messages to Leng Feng, her face was very ugly, which really scared Leng Feng.

"Why is your face so ugly?"

"I'm fine, I'm a little tired, just take a break." Wu Xiaoyun squeezed out a smile, in fact, her brain was already groggy, and she just tried to prevent herself from fainting.

"Come, sit down, drink some water first......"

"Wu Xiaoyun ......" Wu Xiaoyun walked over, and just about to sit down, he felt his brain dizzy, and he fell straight down, but fortunately, Leng Feng's eyes were quick and he helped people up at once.

"Someone, call the medics!"

Leng Feng helped Wu Xiaoyun to his room, put him on the marching bed and lay down, sighed, and touched his forehead again, there was no fever.

The medic came in with a kit on his back.

After checking it, he said, "How long has it been since Director Wu rested?" ”

"I've slept for less than two hours since yesterday." Xue Ping rushed over when he heard the news.

"Then from now on, you have to let her rest, otherwise her body will collapse, she has suffered such a serious injury, and if she doesn't heal well, it's really dead......" The medical soldier didn't know Wu Xiaoyun's origin, and he looked a little old, so he spoke very straight.

"Then she's not in danger of life, is she?" Leng Feng asked with concern.

"No, it's okay to get some rest."

Leng Feng can actually judge, but sometimes he can heal himself or not, and when he encounters someone close to him, it will inevitably be a little messy, Leng Feng is also a human being here, and he is not yet at the point of transcendence.

What's more, Wu Xiaoyun already had a place in his heart, and the moment he fainted just now, he really felt his heart thump.

Maybe I really like Wu Xiaoyun, right?

This toss, it was already five o'clock in the morning, and Leng Feng originally wanted to squint for a while before the general attack, but it seemed unlikely.

"Boss, let's move Director Wu to her house, can you rest for a while?" Guo Weiquan said kindly.

"No need, let her rest here, just give me another camp bed outside." Leng Feng waved his hand.

"Yes!"

About three kilometers east of the Xianhe River, heavy artillery positions.

Twenty-four heavy cannons and twelve mountain cannons removed their camouflage from the outside, revealing the barrels, which stabbed obliquely into the sky like Optimus Prime, emitting an awe-inspiring cold light.

The Japanese had been trying to find the hiding place of the Heavy Artillery Regiment of the 1st Division of Honor, but they had never been able to do so, and now it had finally shown its hideous face.

The river-crossing assault squad was also assembled, and behind them was the new 37th Brigade Engineer Battalion, a young engineer corps, who had collected boats and planks from nearby, and today was the first time they had erected a pontoon bridge in actual combat, which was a great test for them.

No one has done it, not even the battalion commander himself, who has only received a little training in this area, and has never done it in actual combat.

But this did not affect their desire for success and victory, and they were sure to build a pontoon bridge over the river, for which they had been preparing for several days.

Just wait for an order.

All the troops participating in the encirclement and annihilation of the 65th Wing were all making preparations, but there was no sound at all on the positions where the two armies met, and the silence was a little terrifying.

The wind seemed to have stopped, the sky was gray, and there was a feeling that a storm was coming.

Leng Feng also lay down for a while, then got up, went in to take a look at Wu Xiaoyun, and found that her breathing was stable, her face was much better than just now, and she was still asleep.

The content of the "strangulation" plan in the message she deciphered was guessed by him. Nine is not far from ten, Shunroku Hata really used the 65th Wing as a bait to lure himself to eat this army, and then he surrounded himself from the periphery and ate himself.

This is a good calculation, if he really does it, it will be a disaster for the first division of honor.

However, Shunroku Hata didn't expect his movements to be so fast, and he didn't give him a chance to arrange at all, and successively seized important cities such as Quanjiao, **, Yuxikou and Mingguang.

The broken fishing net of the "strangulation" plan suddenly became fragmented.

Once the battle falls into the rhythm of the opponent, then the opponent can fight as much as he wants, and if the opponent's rhythm is affected by you, then you occupy the initiative on the battlefield.

No matter how you plan to get through, once you follow the path set by others, failure is inevitable.

Shunroku Hata is like this, the sneak attack on Pukou, this is just a move for him to take without a move, the failure of Yuxikou, the occupation of Mingguang, the 'strangulation' plan has failed, and the goal of encircling the 1st Division of Honor from the periphery cannot be completed, this is a failed plan.

Leng Feng chose to let the 65th Wing have a way out at most, but the Honor 1st Division can calmly withdraw from the battlefield, and its own strength will not suffer too much.

It's just that Leng Feng doesn't want to let go of the 65th Wing, once this Japanese army is let go, the battle below will be very difficult to fight, in the face of the heavy pressure of the Japanese army group in Yangzhou, as well as the Japanese army that landed in Pukou, the strategic depth of the Honor 1st Division itself is not large.

Unless he gives up everything he has now and retreats westward, it will have immeasurable serious consequences for the Fifth War Zone and even the Battle of Xuzhou, which is not what he wants.

So, eating the 65th Wing is a must-win.
