"Sir, further on is the boundary of Yuncheng, the road over there is worse, but there is definitely no problem with walking, if it rains, it will be difficult to walk......

The guide's chattering words also made Leng Feng somewhat understand the situation about Yuncheng!

Didn't Song Heizi in "Water Margin" be such a petty official in Yuncheng, and was finally forced to rebel in Liangshan? This time it's coming. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Eight hundred miles of water and Liangshan are next to this Yuncheng, as for whether there are the legendary eight hundred miles, it is difficult to say.

According to the description in the novel, this should be a place where the people are angry, but in fact, the people here are simple and simple, and the people are not so difficult to deal with.

If the people were not forced to do that, who would want to rebel with their heads tied to their belts?

"Division, Commander-in-Chief Sun has called, he has arrived in Caozhou with the headquarters of the Third Army." Leng Feng pondered, and Xue Ping said coldly in his ear.

"Long Yingqin."

"Yes, Master, you call me?"

"How many troops do we have on the Yellow River in Luxi?"

"This ......"

"It's okay, you say, I just want to hear it!" Leng Feng commanded calmly.

"Yuncheng is stationed in the 22nd Division of the Third Group Army of our Luxi Corps, and now there are about 6,000 soldiers and horses, Caozhou is the 81st Division of the Zhanshutang Division, about 4,000 people, and Caoxian, Dingtao, Chengwu and other places are the 20th Division of the Third Group Army, with a total strength of about 8,000 people."

"So the combined troops are less than 20,000?"

"Yes, there are only more than 10,000 guns for 20,000 people, not a single artillery gun of more than 100 mm, the three divisions combined have less than ten guns, the number of mortars is also very small, and light and heavy machine guns are ......"

"Okay, don't say it, I know." Leng Feng interrupted, hearing this, he panicked in his heart, the heavy mechanized corps of Kenji Dohihara had at least thirty or forty thousand people.

Once they crossed the Yellow River, with these guns, how could they resist the steel torrent of the Japanese army, even if he knew the shortcomings and weaknesses of the Japanese army, it would be in vain if he was unable to deal with it.

This battle cannot be forced, it can only be fought skillfully.

But how to fight, on this flat ground, no matter how powerful the two legs are, they can't run on four wheels, eastern Henan is a plain, and the Japanese army's mechanized corps is like a fish in water, and it is very easy to deploy.

At this time, he somewhat understood why Lao Jiang chose to blow up the Yellow River embankment, which was also a last resort, the Yellow River burst and the flood crossed.

Can the mechanized corps of the Japanese army still gallop in the water?

It's just that the price is too great, too big, so many people's homes have been destroyed, and so many lives have disappeared like this.

Leng Feng's heart really hurts, maybe when you look at it from the height of history, this is just a historical event, and those deaths are just pictures or a string of numbers.

But when you live in this era and feel everything here, you will understand that this is not a photo, not a number, but a living life.

They may be uneducated, and even a little ignorant, but this is not what they want, this is the shackles of an era, the society has not developed to that extent, they are all self-reliant ordinary people, and they are also deeply bullied by the powerful.

And the aggressors are more shameless and terrible than the might, they are plundering, they are killing. kill, and even ask you to kneel before them and give everything you have.

"What's the news from Chief Li?"

"Not yet."

"Division, Deputy Brigade Xie called, the artillery on the west bank of the Japanese army launched a fierce artillery bombardment on the east bank, and he has ordered the troops to retreat five kilometers to build a defensive position."

"What about the casualties of the 37th Brigade?"

"The casualties are not big, before this they recaptured the old city, Wuji and other places occupied by the Japanese army, but the Japanese bombardment, we did not have any anti-artillery fortifications, and staying there can only be sent to death, so now these places are lost again!" Staff Officer Hu said with a gloomy face.

"It doesn't matter if you lose it, there are always winners and losers in wars, our strength is indeed inferior to others now, but we are looking at the future, we will not always be inferior to the Japanese, I firmly believe in this." Leng Feng said heavily.

"Shizuo, it seems that the Japanese army is determined to cross the river from Dongkou, and Juancheng must be the target they occupy, otherwise where would they come from?"

"Well, you're right, Kenji Dohihara's goal is not us, it's just that we hinder him from occupying Juancheng as a fulcrum, and then going south to the strategic goal of the Longhai Line." Leng Feng nodded.

"Then what are we going to do, do we defend Juancheng?"

"How sure do you feel if we stick to Juancheng?" Leng Feng asked Long Yingqin rhetorically.

"It's hard to say about this subordinate, but I think three or five days shouldn't be a problem." Long Yingqin thought for a moment and said slowly.

"Defending Juancheng is of little significance to Kenji Dohihara, as long as his mechanized corps crosses the river, it can rush down, Juancheng is just a fulcrum, but he can completely establish a second fulcrum, and, with the strength in my hands, as long as he divides a force, he can contain me, which does not affect his strategic goals."

"You mean, he's going to divide his troops?"

"What would you do if you had such a powerful mechanized corps in your hands?"

"Of course the troops are divided, I don't need to argue with you. Entangle, as long as you cut off Longhai Road, then you can go back and clean you up......" Long Yingqin realized that he had said the wrong thing, "I'm sorry, Shizuo, I didn't mean you, look at my mouth......"

"You're right, Tu Feiyuan just wants to cross the river now, he didn't think of anything else, if he really wants to find my revenge in Nanjing, then I really have to thank him." Leng Feng smiled bitterly, this game in front of him is not easy to crack.

If he didn't have to come, he wouldn't have to bear the pressure, but since he knew that the Japanese would take this step and was capable of doing something, he couldn't get over it in his heart.

"Is there anything that can be done to paralyze his mechanized corps?"

"Xue Ping, what did you say?"

"Division, I mean, is there any way to paralyze the Japanese mechanized corps?" Xue Ping smiled.

"Xue Ping, you really reminded me, this tank, truck and armored car are not people, as long as people are given food and drink, he can walk and run, but tanks and cars have no diesel and gasoline, then he will be completely lying on his stomach, why didn't I think of it!" Leng Feng stroked his palms and laughed.

Leng Feng didn't expect it, he actually knew the weakness of the Japanese mechanized corps for a long time, and this weakness would be infinitely magnified in China.

Because China is an agricultural country and is very poor and weak, if the Japanese army wants to feed the war with war, it can only be a little stronger grain to ensure that it will not go hungry, but all kinds of strategic materials needed for this war are produced in factories.

The vast majority of these places in China do not have, or are unable to produce their own, and this logistics alone can drag the little devils to death.

In particular, the 14th Division, a mechanized division equipped with heavy equipment, relies more heavily on logistics, while ordinary infantry divisions and regiments are better.

The mechanized corps is very strong, but its weaknesses are also obvious, especially in a poor and backward agricultural country like China.

As long as the 14th Division moves, it will definitely need huge logistical support, and once the tanks and cars run out of gas, it will be no different from scrap metal.

And those heavy artillery, relying on manpower, must not be able to move, can only tow trucks, but what does the towing truck need to move?

Doesn't that have to be oil?

The 14th Division of Kenji Dohihara is a unit that drinks oil, and when there is oil, and if the terrain is favorable to him, it can exert exponential combat effectiveness, if there is no oil, with these iron lumps that can't move to drag, I'm afraid it will be enough to hang!

Cavalry!

A cold light flashed in Leng Feng's eyes, just getting rid of the Japanese army's oil supply was not over, and he was given a hard blow, he needed a huge cavalry, at least one division!

Fighting on the plains, as long as the tanks and cars of the little devils lie down, the cavalry is the sharpest weapon.

But where did the cavalry come from?

A division needs at least five or six thousand people, and he has a cavalry regiment in his hand, but there are only eight hundred people, and it can't form a scale at all.

"Long Yingqin, you draft an order, I want to gather all the cavalry of the Luxi Corps, and at the same time order Hu Bagui's cavalry regiment to report to me quickly!" Leng Feng ordered.

"Yes!"

"You help me calculate, if I go out to use the necessary communications, how many cavalry can my Luxi Corps concentrate?"

"Each brigade of our Honor Division has a cavalry battalion, and if we remove communications and other purposes, we can draw out at least two companies, so that we can get seven or eight hundred."

"This is a cavalry regiment!"

Leng Feng nodded, if he could make up two cavalry regiments, he could form a temporary cavalry brigade, plus the cavalry of the Third Army and the Luxi People's Army, he should be able to meet his needs.

It's not that he didn't want to ask others for help, but it's not a good thing to ask for help, and it's easy to leak the news, since the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese don't know all the actions of GJ, and sometimes, if the enemy doesn't make his own mistakes, the outcome may be very different.

It's just that there are only a limited number of people he can ask for, maybe only Li Delin can be trusted, but he is also tight on his side, and he is counting on him to help him delay a little longer!

Li Delin really needs Leng Feng to delay a little longer, so that he can have a chance to annihilate the Seya detachment and the Sakamoto detachment, so that he can complete all the plans for the Battle of Taierzhuang, and then calmly withdraw the troops of the five theaters to the west!

Before Li Delin's order arrived, Lao Jiang sent him a telegram from Zhengzhou, the first half of which was a commendation, and Lao Jiang was reluctant to give him praise for Leng Feng's insight into the Japanese army's opportunities, so he almost said that he was "his good student" and the label was pasted on his face.

Good things to say, it's time to make a request, the Tufeiyuan Division must be blocked, he must not be allowed to go south to the Longhai line, and the safety of the lifeline of the Fifth War Zone must be guaranteed.

He didn't have to take care of the Japanese army on the southern front, but he had to take care of the Tuhihara Division.

Leng Feng is also not polite, you old Jiang wants me to take care of it, I have so little money in my hands, and I have to deal with the powerful Japanese mixed corps that went south from Tai'an and Jinan to rescue the Japanese Isogu Division, and I have to block Tufeiyuan, yours give me soldiers!

Of course, you can't just give soldiers, you have to give me the right, I can't command any of the soldiers you give, and I can't fight this battle.

Lao Jiang also expected that a division would be withdrawn from Shang Qiyu's 32nd Army, and then the 46th Division that was resting in Luoyang would also be transferred to Luxi, plus the previous Dong Zhao's 28th Division, plus three divisions of the 12th Army of the Third Army and part of the Luxi People's Army that could be mobilized, and then the new 37th Brigade of the 1st Division and other supporting units on the plane.

If you make up this way, there are actually 70,000 or 80,000 people.

Leng Feng knew that just because these 70,000 or 80,000 people were not the opponents of the Tufeiyuan Division, at this moment, if he didn't open his mouth and ask for the conditions, I was afraid that after this village, there would be no such shop.

He asked for the establishment of a cavalry brigade, of course, under the command of the Honorary First Division, and also asked the Honorary First Division, which was resting in Wuhan, to supplement the corps, select a part of it, and set up a new 36th Brigade to quickly go to Luxi!

Lao Jiang received a telegram from Leng Feng in Zhengzhou, he dropped the quilt and scolded "Niang Xipi", originally he planned to urgently recruit Xue Boling to come to eastern Henan, and planned to form a corps in eastern Henan.

This soldier has no two masters, even if a Yudong Corps is established, this battle can only listen to one person, can this Xue Boling listen to a junior willingly?

Lao Jiang didn't plan to take this risk, if Leng Feng was to accept Xue Boling's command, it would not be impossible, but when the two of them got together, there was already a Li Delin in front, and the climate of this cold front had already become.

It's better to let Leng Guoguang deal with Kenji Dohihara alone, win, appear to be generous, know people and make good use of them, and if he loses, he just finds an excuse to treat him ruthlessly.

In order to ensure the safety of the Longhai Line and eastern Henan, Lao Jiang still made some instructions and deployments in Zhengzhou, which were basically the same, and there was not much difference.
