Marshall took the telegram, read it, and said in surprise, "The Japanese army has been defeated again?" ”

Hull followed and said, "The 115th Division of the Eighteenth Group Army of the Chinese National Army has repelled the pursuit of the Japanese army and is advancing towards Jinan. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Roosevelt nodded and said, "This is the main force in the Red Party armed forces in northern China, I think we need to send people to contact them, and we must understand the specific situation in China, so as not to make our judgment wrong." ”

Hull put away the telegram and said, "I'll arrange it." ”

The telegram that Roosevelt got was actually forwarded from Chongqing, and the news of Chongqing was actually much slower, after Lin Sanhu surrounded the point to send reinforcements to repel the pursuit of the Japanese army, he stopped going north and turned south, and went straight to Binzhou, the Japanese army trembled and determined that there was no new ambush and then chased forward, the weather suddenly changed, and it snowed heavily, and the Eighth Route Army had cotton clothes and cotton pants provided by Jiang Cheng, and there was no big problem, but this heavy snow covered up the traces of the Eighth Route Army, and the Japanese army felt more difficult to pursue, due to the three-light policy some time ago, Many places have become no man's land, and the logistics supply of the Japanese army is slowly unable to keep up, and by the time the 115th Division arrived in Qingzhou, the main force of the Japanese army has begun to be a little overfed.

What made Okamura Ningji feel even worse was that the offensive of the Eighth Route Army and the Jin Sui Army in Shanxi and Suiyuan was getting stronger and stronger, and the two soldiers and horses who were originally just feints saw that the Japanese counterattack seemed to be much smaller than expected, and simply began to attack the city, and Okamura Ningji was forced to transfer back part of his troops to Hebei and other places, and the time that Lin Sanhu wanted was gradually ripe.

"Wow, it's cold." Jiang Cheng rubbed his hands and walked into the mountain temple, which was the temporary headquarters of the 115th Division.

"Oh, it's 203, you're just here, the devils are almost in Qingzhou, and it's hard for them to go down thousands of miles." Luo Ronghuan saw Jiang Cheng and greeted him with a smile.

Jiang Cheng said while roasting the fire, "Then do we still want to continue to transfer?" ”

Lin Sanhu stood outside the window and looked at the snowy outside, and asked, "Can our tank be used at this time?" ”

At this time, the temperature in Shandong reached minus 112 degrees, such weather is a challenge for locomotives, diesel engines can generally persist to about minus 20 degrees, while gasoline engines can only last to minus 10 degrees, of course, it is not that this temperature will be broken, but it is difficult to catch fire, and the loss of the machine is large, so Lin Sanhu has this question.

"Don't worry, we have antifreeze in our fuel, even if it is minus 30 degrees, our tanks can run." Jiang Cheng explained.

"That's good, the intelligence shows that the devils can't hold on a little anymore, as long as we can give them another hate, their sweep this time will be a complete failure." Lin Sanhu walked quickly to the map and said, "I'm going to lay a big pocket array for them here, and our tank force is the lid of my pocket array!" ”

Speaking, Lin Sanhu patted the map, Jiang Cheng and others surrounded it, Lin Sanhu said, "The terrain here is very special, on the left is the Jiulongyu Mountains, stretching for nearly 100 miles, on the right there are Yao Mountain, Ling Mountain, Cangshan and other mountain ranges, the plain area is suddenly tight here, and there are Niu Mountain, Turtle Mountain and other places behind, making this a natural pocket, now the snow is falling, the Japanese reconnaissance plane can not take off, as long as we set up an ambush here, we will definitely be able to win a battle!" ”

Everyone looked at the map and couldn't help but admire Lin Sanhu's military vision, this place is Linqu County under Qingzhou, this pocket array is not small, it can hold one or two hundred thousand people.

Lin Sanhu looked at everyone and asked, "Do you think there is any problem?" ”

Luo Ronghuan shook his head and said, "I support it." ”

Nie Rongzhen also nodded and said, "I also agree." ”

As soon as Lin Sanhu saw that it had passed, he immediately said, "Then immediately order the troops to ambush in the surrounding mountains, and everyone will ban lights and fires, and if the Japanese army discovers the abnormality, the military law will do it!" ”

The snow is still falling, and a large army is moving forward cautiously, this is the Xiduocheng who has been chasing Lin Sanhu for almost a month, he took the telescope and looked at the Linqu county town that has become a white world and said, "Is there any trace of the Eighth Route Army found ahead?" ”

"Report to the division commander, we have found no trace of the Eighth Route Army, our intelligence officers told us that the Eighth Route Army has been passing through here for three days, and has also let all the people go to the countryside to hide from our army." The staff officer next to him, Nakagawa Prefecture, said.

Kita Cheng snorted and said, "Eight ~ ~ Ga ~ ~, Lin Sanhu's 115th Division is extremely cunning, first let a brigade enter the county town to search, most of them are repaired outside the city, and then enter after confirming that there is no problem." ”

In fact, at this time, the Japanese army no longer had much confidence and expectation in catching up with the 115th Division and eliminating the 115th Division, but it was just chasing by inertia, after all, the more bad weather that snowed like this, the more conducive to the transfer of the 115th Division, not to mention the back and forth of the 115th Division in the past month, coupled with the counterattacks of the guerrillas in various places, had already made Okamura Ningji's iron wall into a broken house with wind leaking on all sides, but no one dared to be the first to say the word of giving up.

Okamura Ninji himself didn't have much hope, his biggest wish now was to rely on such a pursuit to drive the 115th Division out of Shandong, as for annihilation... I'll talk about that later.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, it has been confirmed that there are still some families in the county town, and we have found some squires who are close to the empire, and they have reported to us that the Eighth Route Army has indeed left and continued to the south." Nakagawa came over and said again.

Kita Seiichi looked at the south and said, "Nakagawa-kun, do you know where this south is?" ”

The quality of the officers of the Japanese army was still good, and he immediately replied, "Hi! It's the direction of Linyi. ”

Kita Makoto nodded and said, "If the 115th Division arrives in Linyi, they can use the terrain and fortifications there to keep us out of the mountain, and our pursuit this month will be declared a failure." ”

Zhongchuan Prefecture Nan did not see it this way, he said, "Your Excellency the division commander, I think the reason for the large number of the Eighth Route Army is that they are rooted in the countryside, if we can drive them to the south of Linyi, then most of Shandong will be completely quiet, and this should be the victory of the empire." ”

When Kita Makoto heard this, he laughed and said, "Very good! Go into the city to rest and continue your journey early tomorrow morning! ”

Hearing that they could enter the city for repair, everyone was very happy, tens of thousands of Japanese troops entered the county one after another, smashed open the surrounding houses, entered the looting and rest, of course, there was also an indispensable ** captivity, Kita Seiichi didn't care about this, since the people here obeyed the orders of the Eighth Route Army to avoid the imperial army, then it was the object of the three-light policy, and now it is already an extrajudicial grace not to burn down here, where do you need to endure anything.

――

"Bastard! The little devil is doing evil again in the county!" Luo Ronghuan, who got the news, walked into the headquarters angrily and said to Lin Sanhu: "The little devil has entered the city, it seems that he is going to rest for a day, and our scouts reported that they burned and looted in the city, and they really did all the bad things." ”

Lin Sanhu said with a wave on his face, "The Japanese army has been chasing us day and night, and now our place is very close to Linyi, and the Japanese army must have psychologically given up the expectation of annihilating our army, so the front-line commander began to slow down, only seeking safety, not victory." ”

Although Luo Ronghuan was a little dissatisfied with Lin Sanhu's lack of mention of the atrocities of the Japanese army, he still went on to say: "The Japanese army is now a triangular formation, and hundreds of thousands of troops from Linqu to Guangrao are constantly concentrating on us. ”

"Our table is big enough, so we're not afraid of too many people!" Nie Rongzhen said: "I think we set a table that is twenty or thirty thousand people, and it can be eaten. ”

Lin Sanhu ate soybeans and said, "One hundred tanks, sixty-two rocket artillery, 50,000 main forces, eating him 20,000 or 30,000 is not a problem, the key is to completely disrupt the Japanese army at the beginning, as long as the Japanese army is disrupted by us, they don't know how many of us are, the last time our ambush annihilated a wing of him, they already have some fear of us, now we have another ambush, as long as it is victorious, the Japanese army will no longer dare to chase after us." Order all troops to prepare, today is the best time to attack. ”

Because of the materials provided by Jiang Cheng, the Eighth Route Army at this time was much better than history in terms of nutrition, there was basically no night blindness, and everyone could fight at night, which made the Red Party generals in this time and space more fond of night raids and night marches, the winter wind was still blowing, and the snowflakes were falling, all the Eighth Route Army wore white cloaks, in order to intimidate the enemy army, they also painted their faces like ghosts and gods at Jiang Cheng's suggestion, and quickly arrived at their designated positions, if the Japanese army saw these white shadows flying around, Eighty percent would think that they had seen ghosts in the mountains and forests.

Because of the three days, Jiang Cheng transported the tank and a large amount of ammunition to the hands of the 115th Division in time, Xu Guangda, who had eaten white rice for a month in the 115th Division, entered the tank excitedly, smelling the familiar smell of engine oil, and felt extremely satisfied, as if this was not engine oil, but some peerless delicacy.

"Commander Xu, you remember, your only task is to keep charging, and you must completely crush the Japanese army! Only in this way can our losses be minimized. Thinking of Lin Sanhu's repeated admonitions, Xu Guangda patted his face, let his spirit reach the best, picked up the microphone and said, "Comrades! Tonight is the time for our Eighth Route Army to avenge the fathers and villagers of Shandong! Comrades must play at the level of one hundred and twenty points and take revenge!! ”

"Revenge! Settle an old score! Settle an old score!! ”

There were bursts of low cheers from the earphones, although they were not from Shandong, but the tank regiment had followed the 115th Division to fight in the south and north in the past month, and had seen too many villages that had been harmed by the Japanese army, and their hearts were already full of anger.

In fact, at this time, the Japanese army was still entering Linqu, and some Japanese soldiers who should not have come also rushed here overnight, hoping to find a sheltered place to resist the heavy snow, if the Japanese army was in good health, but in such a cold weather, there were still many people who were sick, and they also urgently needed a place to rest, which is why some Japanese troops left the county town and were stationed outside, one is to prevent sneak attacks, and the other is to free up some rooms for these sick Japanese soldiers to live.

"Ah~~~" A Japanese soldier yawned while standing guard, although he knew that the Eighth Route Army that could contain and block them could appear near here at any time, but he couldn't lift his spirits at all, he was too tired, cold and tired, people couldn't wait to find a leeward place to smoke a cigarette and rest, as for going to sleep, he didn't dare, if the weather wasn't in the quilt, he wouldn't be able to wake up from a bad night.

Just do it when you think of it, looking at the still snowy sky and the camp that is no longer empty, this Japanese soldier quietly came to the corner of the camp, even if it is discovered, it can also be used as an excuse for the trumpet, besides, who will come to check the post in such weather?

Finally lit a cigarette, this Japanese soldier took a puff beautifully, he looked at the sky, thought about his family in Japan, and muttered, "Three leaves.... Are you okay with Meimei? I don't know when I'll be able to go home. ”

After that, he touched the hard object in his arms, this is his harvest for more than a month, a gold ring, he has been thinking about returning to Japan with this thing, and giving it to his wife, such a beautiful ring for Sanye to wear, it must be very beautiful.

"Giggles"

A slight sound caught his attention, he stood up and listened carefully, the winter wind brought the sound into his ears, gurgling, all the same, it seemed to be something stepping on the snow, but how could it be so loud, could it be some kind of monster?

He took a flashlight and looked out, but only saw the wind and snow, is there really a monster? The Japanese soldier shook his head and continued to watch, when he suddenly saw a white shadow... No, it was a white shadow rushing out of the snowy night.

"What is this?" Before his question could be answered, he heard a shout from the camp, and when he turned around, he saw a sentry in the distance pointing to the sky, and he looked up and saw countless meteors shining in the snowy night...

"Enemy attack!" "Bang" "Dadada"

Finally, the Japanese army found out what those meteors were, they were shells, the meteors quickly smashed into the camp, and the fireballs blown up by the meteors made the snowflakes turn red, the Japanese looked back at the white shadow, and found that the white shadow was only less than ten meters away from him, and he also saw clearly what it was - it was a tank with a cannon barrel.

"Wow" The Japanese soldier fell to the ground, desperately crawling backwards and retreating, the tank pressed past him mercilessly, his body and the earth, snow and gold ring turned into a white, red and black mixed thing, indescribable. (To be continued.) )
