Chapter 876: Xue Boling asks for help
"Military seat, this place has been occupied by the Japanese army, and here, here, the Japanese army's forward troops have arrived at this position......" The baton in Long Yingqin's hand kept pointing on the sand table, introducing Leng Feng to the latest battle situation. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Junza, according to the latest intelligence, the Japanese army came to reinforce Anyang is an advance detachment of the 4th Division of the Japanese Army, numbering about 2,000 people, and it is not far from Anyang at present."
"Fourth Division, are you sure?" Leng Feng raised his head, straightened up, and asked with a slightly strange expression.
"I'm sure!" Xue Ping said solemnly.
"Okay, okay, where is the new 39th Brigade going?" Leng Feng smiled and asked.
"Arrived in Neihuang this morning, and the striker is in Chuwang."
"Among the 18 standing divisions in Japan, the 4th Division is the worst in combat effectiveness, it can be said that it is a joke in the Japanese army circles, known as the 'first wrecked division in the Imperial Army', this division was founded in 1888, the soldiers are mainly composed of vegetable vendors and traders in Osaka, it is one of the oldest divisions in the Japanese army, and the equipment is also the most sophisticated, which can be called elite, however, it has just been established not long ago, it has the nickname of 'wreckage', and its core wing, the eighth wing has been repeatedly defeated in the Russo-Japanese War and won the ' The nickname of the Eighth Wing' ......"
For the 4th Division, Leng Feng is naturally like a treasure, the Japanese division is too famous in Japanese military circles, when it comes to fighting, it is full of wounded, and other troops are fighting and not dying, but here in the 4th Division, it is important to save their lives.
What's even more strange is that this division is also very fond of business, and they do it wherever they go, with themselves and with their enemies, as long as there is enough profit, they can sell their souls to the devil.
This is a wonderful army.
When Leng Feng heard the news, he was very happy, if he wanted to change to another unit, it would be really difficult, but with the 4th Division, it would be really good.
This advance detachment of the 4th Division was simply sent equipment to the New First Army.
"Xiao Xia, call Fang Xiaoyang over."
"Yes!"
"Throne, you're looking for me."
"Xiaoyang, there is a particularly important task that only you can complete." Leng Feng called Fang Xiaoyang to his office and said seriously.
"Junza, you said, Xiaoyang promises to complete the task."
"That's ......"
"You use tobacco to do business with Japanese devils......" Fang Xiaoyang couldn't help but be a little shocked when he heard it, this was simply too sensational, not at all like Leng Feng he knew.
"I know it's wrong, the tobacco we collected should be destroyed on the spot, these things are used to poison the Chinese, so that we have been burdened with the hat of the sick man of East Asia for many years, but if you can exchange these things from the Japanese for the weapons and ammunition we need, will you do it?"
"Junza, are you sure, you don't have that, how can the Japanese be willing to sell us weapons and ammunition, or exchange them for tobacco and soil?" Fang Xiaoyang stammered and asked.
"Stinky boy, I don't have a fever, if I meet other Japanese soldiers, I wouldn't dare to do it if I gave them the guts, but if this 4th Division is a regiment, you will find that they are actually very cute, and you will know when you get in touch with them, or you can go back and ask Akagi them, and you will know what I am talking about." Leng Feng explained.
"However, if you trade these harmful things with the Japanese, then they will definitely sell them to the Chinese, and in the end it will be the Chinese themselves?"
"How do you know that they will use these scourges to harm the Chinese, don't the Japanese need this?" Leng Feng explained, "In addition, what can we come up with to trade with the Japanese, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, or gold and silver property, these cannot be given to the Japanese, once the precious heritage left by our ancestors must not be given to the Japanese, gold and silver property is given to them, they can directly exchange more steel, oil and rubber from the hands of the Americans, British, and Germans, and although the tobacco is valuable, it cannot be directly exchanged for these, do you understand?" ”
"Commander, it's too risky to do this, if you leak the news, it will have a big impact on your reputation!"
"I don't care so much, as long as I can exchange weapons and ammunition, why not carry a little infamy on my back, at least I can't be a traitor, let alone defect to the Japanese, right?"
"That is, the Japanese now hate you to the core, and they want to cut you with a thousand knives."
"Only you can do this, you know Japanese, and you know how to be flexible, if you do a good job, we can maintain this line, maybe it will be useful in the future."
"Junza, this matter is too big, I can't hold it down alone, and now the two armies are still fighting, how can I talk about a deal?" Fang Xiaoyang said.
"It's up to you to be capable, I believe in you."
"Commander, you've dug a pit for me to jump into."
"It's a pit, do you jump or not?" Leng Feng looked at Fang Xiaoyang with a smile and said.
"Junzuo, aren't you forcing me......" Fang Xiaoyang cried with a sad face, this thing was done, it was definitely quite fulfilling, but this was also wearing asbestos Xie walking on the burning wire rope, and if he didn't get it right, he would burn himself.
"Xiaoyang, I believe you have a way, I'm optimistic about you."
Fang Xiaoyang had no choice but to take over this task, to be honest, this task is really only he can do, others, it's not that they are incapable, but they can understand Japanese, Japanese customs all night, and can be trusted by Leng Feng, and there is also a group of Japanese who are anti-war allies under him.
No one is better suited to the task.
After receiving the task, Fang Xiaoyang disappeared again, everyone in the command headquarters was already surprised by Fang Xiaoyang's disappearance, anyway, every few days, Fang Xiaoyang would disappear for a period of time to carry out a confidential mission.
As for what kind of confidential mission it is, it is anyone who can ask, Fang Xiaoyang is already one of the most trusted people around Leng Junzao.
"Fang Xiaoyang has only been back for a few days, why is he missing again, Guoguang, did you send him to do something secret again?" Others don't dare to ask, but Xie Jiyuan, as the chief of staff, has no problem asking.
"I sent him to be a staff officer for Zhang Zhongling, and he lacked a staff officer there, so he would be on for a period of time."
"Didn't you let Fang Xiaoyang be your secretary, why did you get someone to be a staff officer?"
"I'll come back when I'm done fighting Anyang."
"That's right." Xie Jiyuan's expression was thoughtful.
On June 17th, the siege of Guide had been going on for four days, and the 450,000 generals and troops of the Guider Siege had been unable to pass through, and the battle had been advanced to the bottom of the city!
Although Guide is an important town in eastern Henan, the county seat is not large, but the city walls and fortifications were built, and the Japanese army relied on the city walls and fortifications to block the attack of the national army.
In the four-day attack, the Nationalist army suffered more than 10,000 casualties, and the Japanese army was reduced from nearly 10,000 to less than 5,000.
Such a high-intensity battle tested the willpower of the Chinese and Japanese armies.
The longer the time dragged on, the more unfavorable the battle situation became for the Nationalist Army, and the Tang Army, which was blocking the 106th Division of the Japanese Army, was almost broken through by the Japanese army a day earlier, but fortunately, Xue Bailing sent the reserve 87th Division in time to join the ranks of blocking the Japanese army, and only then did he block the Japanese attack.
Xue Bailing only slept for two or three hours a day, and the rest of the time was either staring at the sand table or staring at the combat map, and both eyes were red.
"Chief Xue, the 51st Division has suffered heavy casualties, and Division Commander Wang Yaowu requests to withdraw and fight again after resting!"
"No, this battle must be fought in one go, if he withdraws, who will take his place?" Xue Boling directly refused.
"The 88th Division is also ......"
"It's been four days and four nights, if we don't break into the city tomorrow and continue to fight, I'm afraid we won't be able to take Guide, and our soldiers will be exhausted."
"Chief Xue, the casualties are too great, our casualties have already passed half, and if we continue to fight, it will be difficult to continue!"
"Chief Xue, it's not that we don't want to fight, but the casualties of the officers under my command are too great, such a blind charge, it is to fill it with human lives......"
"Chief Xue......"
Xue Boling suddenly had a terrible sound in his head, these were the voices of the generals under his command one by one, which made him feel a little trance.
Suddenly, his mind was empty, and Xue Boling was about to fall, so he suddenly grabbed the edge of the sand table, barely supported his body, and didn't let himself fall.
He knew that if he fell, even if it was fine, the impact on morale would be huge, so he would definitely not be able to fall.
"Old Wu!"
"Chief Xue?" Wu Xiqi was talking to a staff officer, and when he turned around, he saw that Xue Bailing's face was wrong, and waved his hand to let the staff officer go down first, and walked over quickly.
"Hold me a little." Xue Bailing is a person who never shows cowardice in front of outsiders, but at this moment, he exposed his most vulnerable part to Wu Xiqi.
Fortunately, this person is Wu Xiqi, and the two have a life-and-death relationship.
"Chief Xue, what's wrong with you?" Wu Xiqi saw that Xue Bailing's face was very bad, his finger bones were grasping the edge of the wood, very hard, and he was still trembling slightly. Trembling, fingernails are also a little gray.
"It's okay, I'm overusing my brain, just rest for a while." Xue Boling shook his head slightly, and with Wu Xiqi's support, he walked to the chair and sat down, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm sick, I'll get a military doctor right away?" Wu Xiqi was startled, he was sick at this time, it was fatal.
"No, I'm really fine, I'm really thinking too much." Xue Boling grabbed Wu Xiqi's hand and shook his head at him, at this time, he must not have anything wrong.
A trace of deep worry flashed in Wu Xiqi's eyes, if the battle came to this point, if something happened to the main general, it would be an earth-shattering thing.
"Chief Xue, I'll ask someone to get you something to eat, you have to supplement your nutrition."
"Okay."
Wu Xiqi summoned a staff officer, gave a few instructions, and let the staff officer go.
"Send a telegram to Brother Qiyu and ask him to send me a division."
"Okay."
"Wait a minute." Xue Boling suddenly stopped Wu Xiqi.
"Chief Xue, what else do you have to order?"
"Send a telegram to Leng Guoguang, I want to secondment his new 38th Division!" Xue Boling said heavily.
"Chief Xue, the new 38th Division has just recovered Caozhou, I'm afraid it's ......"
"The only one who can help us now is Leng Guoguang's new 38th Division, you immediately send a telegram to Leng Guoguang, be fast, the new 38th Division will rush over from Caozhou, and it will take at least half a day!" Xue Boling Road.
"Yes!" Wu Xiqi nodded.
The troops in the Fifth Theater have been withdrawn, but they are all tired divisions, their combat effectiveness is limited, and they urgently need to rest and replenish, and the troops in the First Theater are also a huge number of new recruits, and they are only used as cannon fodder.
It seems that the Nationalist Government still has more than one million troops, but in fact, the soldiers who can fight have already been consumed, and if it were not for the immediate decision to retreat from the Fifth War Zone, I am afraid that the current situation would be even more dangerous.
