"Sir, General Xue Boling, commander-in-chief of the 19th Army, has arrived!"

"Xue Boling has arrived, I will personally greet him!" When Lao Jiang heard this, Huo Ran stood up and commanded with some excitement. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Xue Yue is in his early forties, in the prime of life, with black and thick eyebrows, wearing a general's uniform, with a Zhongzheng sword hanging from his waist, and his two eyes are very different, and he is heroic!

"Brother Boling!"

"Hello, Chairman!" Xue Boling Shuang. With his legs together, he saluted a solemn military salute, he was a soldier, and he was a very serious soldier.

Those who know him know this.

"Brother Boling has worked hard all the way, please take a seat!" Lao Jiang smiled all over his face and greeted him very warmly.

Xue Boling nodded, walked over, and sat down on the sofa.

The guards served tea, and gave Lao Jiang a cup of boiled water.

"How were you doing along the way?"

"It's going well."

"It's good that it goes well, I called you Brother Boling in such a hurry, I have something important to entrust to you." At this time, there is no need to detour, not to mention that Lao Jiang also knows Xue Boling, he is a straight-hearted soldier.

"Please show me the chairman!"

"Sit, sit, don't be so serious." Old Jiang smiled, "Brother Boling has also paid attention to the battle situation in Xuzhou, although our army has won a great victory in Taierzhuang, but the enemy and our forces have always been in a state of disparity, and the Japanese army now has a plan to encircle and annihilate the 500,000 elites of our Xuzhou Fifth Theater, so the Military Commission has decided to abandon Xuzhou when necessary." ”

Xue Boling didn't speak, although he was urgently transferred back to listen to Xuan, his understanding of the battle situation in Xuzhou was not very clear, and it was not easy to speak casually.

"But it's not so simple to give up, the Japanese army is forming an encirclement, Weiwen, you can simply introduce the battle situation in Xuzhou to Brother Boling!"

"Chief Xue, please take a step!" Lin Wei nodded.

Xue Boling stood up and walked towards a map of the fifth theater on the wall, the red and blue markings on it were already very obvious, although the Xuzhou area and some areas in Lunan were still in the hands of GJ, but from the periphery there were already seven or eight red arrows representing the Japanese attack to encircle the blue area in the middle.

South of Xuzhou, there is still room to move in northern Jiangsu, although there is an area in the southern Lunan area that has not been occupied by the Japanese army, but that is because of the battle of Taierzhuang, the main force of the Japanese 10th Division, the Seya detachment was almost eaten, and there was a vacuum.

The Japanese army is hurrying to transfer troops from China into North China, at least three divisions have already boarded the ship, and the Japanese army in Central China is also constantly increasing its troops.

The Japanese army's intentions were already obvious on the map.

If the fifth GJ of Xuzhou wants to withdraw his troops, he can only take the two roads of northern Anhui and Luxi.

The Japanese army is attacking northern Anhui with all its might, and the first Japanese army has advanced to the city of Yongcheng, and on the western side of Luxi, 30,000 or 40,000 people of the Japanese Tufeiyuan Division crossed the Yellow River and dispatched from the nest.

The purpose of the Japanese army is to cut off the retreat of the GJ, and if the Japanese army's conspiracy succeeds, then the 500,000 GJ in Xuzhou is really dangerous.

"Chairman, the progress of the Tufeiyuan Division is not fast, isn't he a mechanized corps, this piece is all about the impact plain, although there are many rivers, but this can't stop their way, the Japanese army has a professional boat and bridge troops."

"Commander Xue can see at a glance that the Tufeiyuan Division's smuggling of the Yellow River was discovered by the Honorary Division Commander Leng Guoguang of the First Division, and when he was smuggling, he was caught in the footsteps of a brigade under the command of Commander Leng Division, and then, in Juancheng, without heavy equipment, it was enough to drag the Tufeiyuan Division for three days." Lin Wei explained with a slight smile.

"How many people are in a brigade?"

"There are almost 7,000 people, and there is also a regiment of the third group stationed in Juancheng, which is estimated to add up to about 8,000 people." Lin Weidao.

"Chairman, is this brigade very capable of fighting, and who is the commander?"

"Major General Xie Chengrui, it turned out to be the commander of the teaching corps, he returned to the rear to recuperate after being wounded in the Battle of Nanjing, and he only went to the honorary first division two months ago, and he is still the old regiment commander of Leng Guoguang." Lao Jiang smiled slightly and explained.

"Leng Guoguang, I have heard of this person in Tunxi, he is very young, he has won a lot of battles, and I really want to meet this young man for a while." Xue Boling's eyes lit up.

A person like Xue Boling is arrogant, but he is by no means narrow-minded, and when he encounters a powerful soldier, he does not have to be an opponent, but at least he must see it, at least compete in secret.

"This time, Brother Boling's chance has come."

"How?"

"The Military Commission has decided to appoint you as the commander-in-chief of the First Corps in Eastern Henan, and your task is to encircle and annihilate the Tufeiyuan Division in eastern Henan and prevent it from cutting off the Longhai Line and crossing the Pinghan Line to the west!" Lao Jiang pointed to the two intersecting railway lines on the map.

"The First Corps of Eastern Henan?" Xue Boling was a little surprised, although he also guessed that Lao Jiang urgently summoned him to Wuhan must have something to do with the current war situation, but he didn't expect him to be the commander-in-chief of the First Corps in Eastern Henan.

He didn't prepare anything, Lao Jiang's telegram didn't say anything, he just sent a plane to pick him up directly.

"Yes, the troops of Yudong and Luxi are under your control."

Xue Boling frowned slightly, this was a bit of an imminent order, but he went alone, how to command these troops, his troops were not clear.

Also, where is the headquarters of his 1st Corps?

"Chairman, when the national crisis is at hand, it stands to reason that there should be no conditions under the post, but I am alone and I don't know the situation in eastern Henan, so if you send me, I won't be afraid that my post will stab you?" Xue Boling Road.

Lao Jiang knew Xue Boling's stinky temper, and he was anxious, scolding his mother was light, that was the six relatives did not recognize, was the nickname of "Tiger Boy" for nothing?

"Your command organ, the First Theater Commander's Department, will give you all the most powerful, and they must be the most effective, you don't have to worry about this, I want to hear your opinion on the selection of the chief of staff."

"Is this for me to choose, Chairman?" Xue Boling asked.

Lao Jiang nodded, since he wants to use Xue Boling, he must give people power, and the first step in giving power is to let people choose their own chief of staff.

"Wu Xiqi, now serving as a senior staff member in the 12th Group Army, is a classmate in Baoding." Xue Boling thought for a while, and said slowly, since you let yourself choose, then choose someone who is compatible with you, can help you, and can persuade you at a critical moment.

"Okay, don't avoid revenge when you move outside, don't avoid relatives when you move inside, Wei Wen, immediately send a telegram to Commander-in-Chief Yu of the 12th Group Army, asking him to send a plane to send Chief of Staff Wu Xiqi directly to Kaifeng!" Old Jiang commanded.

"Yes, sir!"

"Chairman, are you really going to give up?" Xue Boling asked with some uneasiness.

"What's the matter, Brother Boling is also scared sometimes?"

"No, it's not that the subordinates are afraid, it's just that some people are used to it, can you let the subordinates bring some people over."

"There is no problem with this, you draw up a list and hand it to Qian Muyi, let him send you a plane to send people directly to Kaifeng, you have a good rest in Wuhan for a night, and fly to Zhengzhou early tomorrow morning." Old Jiang commanded.

"Okay, Chairman, what other instructions do you have!"

"After you arrive in Zhengzhou, first go to visit Song Gong, your corps is now under the first war zone, and most of the troops belong to the first war zone, if you need anything, you can go directly to Liu Jingfu, he is the chairman of the provincial government, in charge of logistics, your time is very short, get familiar with the situation as soon as possible."

"Your subordinates understand, take your leave!" Xue Boling stood up, gave a military salute and left.

Although Xue Boling is arrogant, he is not stupid, he knows that he has received a hot potato, but as a soldier, he has no reason to refuse.

Serving the country during the War of Resistance was originally one of his beliefs.

This time I went back to Yudong, it was an order to be in danger, and it was also an opportunity, Lao Jiang was in trouble this time, otherwise he would not have thought of using him.

This time, he was actually fully responsible, but it was not his own descendants who commanded the troops, and the battle was not easy to fight, and there was merit in the fight, and if the fight was not good, the crime would have to be fought by himself.

This time he came in a hurry, and he didn't bring anyone with him, so he brought an adjutant, and he didn't even bring a change of clothes, who knew that there would be such a thing.

The military order is like a mountain, and Xue Boling also knows that he has no room for bargaining, he can push it away, but then he will look down on himself.

Xue Yue arrived in Wuhan on the evening of the 16th, and then went to Luojia Mountain to meet Lao Jiang, and the news was quickly grasped by Wu Xiaoyun, and an encrypted telegram was sent to Luxi.

Leng Feng received a telegram and knew that the matter had come to this point, there was no way to change it, and next, his direct boss would become Xue Boling, nicknamed "Tiger Boy", although he has not yet won the title of "God of War", but the "Heavenly Furnace" tactics, Leng Feng is very clear, the three battles of Changsha, the general from the Guangdong Army became one of the most dazzling people on the battlefield of resistance against Japan.

Leng Feng knew that if he wanted to compete with Xue Boling, I was afraid that for now, his qualifications and prestige would be too far worse than him, and besides, Xue Boling was not incompetent, even if he didn't get along, he wouldn't stay under him for long.

Xue Boling is still his own person in the final analysis, and on the issue of resisting Japan, he is still unambiguous, and he has no interests in each other, so just be careful.

"It is a foregone conclusion that Xue Boling will come to eastern Henan, with such a strong general in the army, at least he can calm the morale of the army, and some of this battle has been fought." Xie Chengrui didn't think as much as Leng Feng thought, Xue Boling's name is not small, and his origin is not small.

"It's much better than that Liu Jingfu."

"If you let Chairman Liu hear this, I'm going to trouble you again." Xie Chengrui smiled and said, he knew that Leng Feng and Liu Jingfu had a holiday, although Leng Feng didn't give him face, but this Liu Jingfu also made a little fuss, and his mind was too narrow-minded.

"It's okay, Xue Boling is here, and I will become a little person."

"Yingqin, where is the 36th Brigade?"

"The 361st regiment has already gotten off in Guide, resting for a night tonight, and will march to Cao County early tomorrow morning." Long Yingqin said, "The rest of the troops will arrive one after another tonight. ”

"Got it."

"Old leader, somehow, I always have a hint of foreboding." Leng Feng frowned slightly.

"What's the matter, isn't the Tu Feiyuan Division in our line of sight?" Xie Chengrui threw a puzzled glance at Leng Feng with some surprise.

"Where is the Japanese army that broke through our Caozhou defense line in a roundabout way?" Leng Feng asked.

"Here, Jiao Zhuang!"

"Lonely army deep, which one is this playing?" Leng Feng stared at the location of Jiao Zhuang on the map, his brows were tightly locked, he had already entered the territory of Chengwu, they guarded against Dingtao and did not fight, chased and intercepted the encirclement, and if they could fight, they would fight, and if they couldn't beat it, they would go around, and after they went around, they went straight forward without stopping at all.

This Japanese army was all mechanized marching, and the movement was too fast, even if he sent troops to chase after him, he could only follow behind and eat ashes, and he also reported this situation to the headquarters of the commander of the Fifth Theater.

Li Delin's judgment is that the Japanese army is coming towards the Longhai line, but at this moment, the Longhai line is full of heavy troops, even if this Japanese army is armed to the teeth, but their strength is always limited, and they want to cut off the Longhai line, unless the north and south are attacked!

However, the Japanese troops closest to the Longhai Line on the southern front were blocked under Yongcheng City, the Eighth Army had already arrived at Guide to set up defenses, and the 27th Army also went to Dangshan.

Coupled with Liu Ziliang's 68th Army and Li Yannian's 2nd Army, the entire Longhai line and the left and right depths are covered with GJ, which can be said to be a long snake formation.

On the Kaifeng side, the 71st Army had already arrived at Lanfeng to set up defenses, the 74th Army and the 64th Army were also on the way to come, and Hu Shoushan's 17th Army Corps was in reserve.

Leng Feng blocked in Juancheng and won a lot of valuable time.
