Chapter 389: Offensive and Defensive Special Service Group (4)
"What, the 65th Wing is surrounded"
Lieutenant General Di Libing's first reaction, how is this possible, no matter how powerful the Chinese army is, it is not capable of surround the elite wing of the empire.
Is the two corners of the industry a pig's head, and it was only when it was surrounded that it was discovered
This is a fake news, what are the intelligence services doing
However, this is true, because the news was sent by the 65th Wing Wing Commander Ryoka Yasaku Daisaku on the radio.
In the headquarters, many Japanese generals of the 3rd Division looked at each other, and an elite army wing was actually surrounded by the weak China Army.
This is something that the Japanese army has never done when it stepped into the Chinese battlefield.
If a formed wing were wiped out by the squadron, the joke would be big, and the 3rd Division would become a disgrace to the Japanese military circles.
"General, we must immediately send a force to pick up the 65th Wing and the Two Corners."
"Which of you goes"
"I'll go," said Mototoshi Tashiro, the commander of the 04th Wing.
"Tashiro-kun, your troops suffered a lot of losses when attacking Bengbu, isn't the strength a little thin," said the chief of staff, Yusaburo Tsukusa.
"General, although my troops have suffered a lot of losses, after a few days of repair, they are fully capable of rescuing the two horned kings this time." Tashiro Mototoshi said loudly, apparently full of confidence in this rescue operation.
"Ryōxi, Tashiro-kun is used to take responsibility, such courage is worth learning from, which is very good." For Tashiro Mototoshi to take the initiative to undertake this task, Ogi Libing was very satisfied.
In his opinion, this task is not too difficult, although the 65th Wing is besieged, it is still safe for the time being, after all, the 65th Wing has 4,000 men and horses, and if the Chinese army wants to eat it in one bite, it is impossible.
What's more, there are two or two Japanese units from the 65th Wing, which is very close, and it has always been the Iizuka Detachment with the 0th Wing as the main force. There was also the main force of the 23rd Wing of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army, which landed from Wujiang Town.
Both of these Japanese troops launched a fierce attack on the Honor 1st Division, which can be said to be a three-front operation, committing a taboo in the army.
The 65th Wing had no problems for a short time.
Even this could be seen as an opportunity, and the 1st Division of Honor surrounded the 65th Wing. The Japanese army surrounded the 1st Division of Honor from the outside, and finally came to the inside and the outside, which could not only destroy the 1st Division of Honor and Yaksha, the great enemies of the Imperial Army, but also relieve the siege of the 65th Wing.
Such a good opportunity actually allowed Tashiro Mototoshi to take the lead. When the other wing captains understood, they all regretted it.
Nanjing, the headquarters of the Central China Front of the Japanese Army, Shunroku Hata received a report from the 3rd Division that the 65th Wing was trapped, not only did not panic, but laughed.
"The people of Zhi Na actually want to eat my 65th Wing at this time, it's just wishful thinking, so it's okay, there is the 65th Wing as a bait. The people of China will not give up this opportunity easily."
"Such a stupid move, it seems that the honorary first division of the Shina Army is nothing more than that" Chief of Staff Shozaburo Kawabe smiled disdainfully,
"It's time to teach these stupid Shina people a lesson"
"Your Excellency General, I'm worried about the new 3rd Brigade at Yuxikou, they are very likely to rush to the aid of the Honor 1st Division, and our troops landing in Wujiang Town will be in danger." Ushijima reminded me.
"It's okay, I've already sent troops to reinforce me, as long as they hold out in Wujiang Town for another three days, and when you lead your troops to raid Pukou, victory will be ours." Shunroku Hata smiled confidently.
"It turns out that His Excellency the General has already thought about it. The subordinates are too worried. Ushijima said with admiration.
"Order Okamoto Daisa, you don't have to take the initiative to contact the Chinese army, just stick to the existing position." Shunroku Hata ordered, "As long as the nail of Wujiang Town is there." It will be difficult for the new 3rd Brigade to withdraw to support the 1st Division of Honor, which is quite beneficial to us. ”
"Your Excellency the General is clever," there was a sound of sycophancy around him.
Hearing these compliments, General Shunliu Hata's heart couldn't help but feel a little fluttery, but he never smiled, so there was still no expression on his face.
Qiaolin Town, Mojia Cave. The headquarters of the special mission regiment was set up here, and the Japanese army occupied Qiaolin Town, and the headquarters was also moved to Qiaolin Town, which was only a dozen kilometers away from Jiangpu Town.
The car can arrive in half an hour, and there is no way back.
Where are the hundreds of thousands of refugees resettled in Jiangpu Town and its vicinity?
Originally, the task of the supplementary brigade was mainly responsible for the defense of the river, but now at this time, Leng Feng had to withdraw troops from the supplementary brigade to strengthen the defense of the special service regiment.
Although the strength of the river defense has weakened, at least there is no sign that the Japanese army has directly crossed the river to the north, and it is enough to leave a guard force on the bank of the river.
Leng Feng is also very worried, although the Honorary First Division has a staff office, there are not many people who can really give him ideas, and they are not around, Guo Weiquan and Long Yingqin can only remind him in small matters, Lao Shen is in charge of his own logistics support, and he can't take care of it at all, Wu Xiaoyun can help in intelligence analysis, but he can only help.
He needs a qualified chief of staff, and Liao Sen can, but he is not around, and he has to lead the troops.
There is a shortage of qualified staff officers and qualified commanders, especially senior commanders who can fight wars, and this is the biggest shortcoming of the Honor 1st Division.
In a short period of time, it is obviously impossible to cultivate by yourself, and when you finish this battle, you should be able to rest for a while, and you will have to do something that offends people.
Some of the prisoners of war that Leng Feng exchanged for from the Japanese army, as well as the prisoners of war who were rescued from the Japanese prisoner of war camp in Nanjing, have joined the 1st Division of Honor.
The Honor 1st Division was expanded to more than 20,000 people in a short period of time, and it could not have been done without these ready-made officers.
But there are still a large number of people who have not joined, firstly, they have not thought of staying in the honorary first division, and secondly, they are all wounded.
Reports
"Chief, Wu Xinhua, Liang Dong telegraphed, the 04th Wing of the Japanese Army will soon go south to rescue the trapped 65th Wing, and the military column will arrive in Mingguang tomorrow evening."
"Oh, this is an opportunity, Wu Xinhua, are they sure" Leng Feng was not surprised, the 65th Wing was trapped, and the Japanese army would definitely make a move.
In addition to ordering the Iizuka detachment to move closer to the 65th Wing, it will definitely withdraw troops from the rescue, this is a formed wing, if it is eaten, then the Japanese army's face will not be able to hang.
"Boss. This Japanese army made a train, and it was bumpy all the way, and it is estimated that there is no combat effectiveness when it reaches Mingguang," Guo Weiquan said.
"Wu Xinhua, do they have any ideas?"
"The Japanese don't know yet that we have control over Meiguang."
"Can you make sure that the news hasn't leaked at all" Leng Feng was a little surprised, this is very difficult. However, now that the weather is freezing and there is a war, it is not difficult to block the news, especially since the new 40th Brigade has not moved much to occupy Mingguang.
"The captain of the Japanese army's baggage troops stationed in Mingguang, and the captain of the Wing Captain Niimura Rishi Shaozo was taken down by Fang Xiaoyang, with his cooperation. The Japanese probably didn't notice that the communication was normal. ”
"Be careful, telegraph Fang Xiaoyang, you can't easily trust the Japanese, if you do something to leak Mingguang's news to the Japanese, then we will suffer a big loss." Leng Feng admonished.
"Yes"
Mingguang, the headquarters of the new 40 brigade.
"If we can take this Japanese army without bloodshed, it will be very beneficial to the next stage of the battle plan."
"It's too risky, although the division agrees that we will solve this Japanese army in Mingguang, but in this way, we will be completely exposed." Wu Xinhua said.
"Exposure is sooner or later." Liang Dong took a puff of the flue.
"Xiaoyang. Did you report your plan to the division?"
"Not yet, I just have this idea." Fang Xiaoyang shook his head and said, for such a big matter, he didn't report to Wu Xinhua and Liang Dong for instructions, he was discussing it, and then reported it.
"How sure are you?"
"If we can get the Japanese army into the city to conceal the news of Mingguang, then we still have a great certainty, at least everything is normal now, and we have done everything that the Japanese army needs supplies and other requirements. The message that the train came back was also normal. Fang Xiaoyang said.
"Make sure that the news is not leaked at all"
Fang Xiaoyang didn't dare to play this package of tickets, and said slowly: "At least I didn't find anything abnormal here." ”
"We can equip ourselves with both hands, on the one hand, we can arrange it according to Fang Xiaoyang's plan, if the news leaks. The only way to do this is to use force. Liang Dong said.
"It's okay, go through the plan again and report to the master." Wu Xinhua thought about it for a long time, and then made up his mind.
"After tomorrow, you can strip off this layer of dog skin, and wear it on your body for the next few days. It's really uncomfortable. Liang Dong said.
"Bear with me a little longer."
The sky gradually darkened, and at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, a drizzle fell from the sky, and Leng Feng stood in the corridor in the courtyard, his face a little solemn.
The weather is very unfavorable for movement at night, if it rains a little harder.
In such a situation, Leng Feng has no better way, if it doesn't work, he can only cancel the operation, but it is too early to talk about cancellation, and the preparations before the operation are still progressing in an orderly manner.
Liao Sen handed over the troops to the command of Chief of Staff Han Xianyuan, and he rode back to the division headquarters.
Before the time of the general attack, Liao Sen's two regiments were just bluffing on the east bank of the Qingliu River, exerting psychological pressure on the Japanese army, and protecting the heavy artillery regiment.
The heavy artillery regiment was the key to the encirclement and annihilation of the 65th Wing this time.
The Japanese tried several times to find the heavy artillery regiment and destroy it, but they did not find a specific target.
This is also one of the few big killing weapons in Leng Feng's hands, and it must not be exposed in advance.
"Master's seat."
"Lao Liao is back, and he has worked hard all the way."
"It's not hard, it's not hard at all to follow the division to fight the little devils." There was a hint of excitement on Liao Sen's swarthy face.
"Call you back, I don't have anyone around me to talk to, you, the deputy chief of staff, have to help me figure it out." Leng Feng knows the truth that one person is short and two people are long, Liao Sen has more experience in leading troops in China than him, and he is good at planning.
The combination of these two is the only way to defeat the enemy.
"The situation is like this," Leng Feng roughly told Liao Sen about the situation in Wujiang Town.
"The meaning of the division seat is to eat this Japanese army that came ashore first" Liao Sen has been with Leng Feng for a long time, he knows his character better, and he will never leave the water when he does things, and once he makes up his mind to do something, it must be done.
The most taboo of leading troops is indecisiveness, he admires Leng Feng's decisiveness and adventurous spirit, a military commander is always stable, that is not a big climate.
Of course, you have to have a strategic vision, and Leng Feng's strategic vision can't be seen yet, but the use of tactics and the spirit of extreme adventure are very worthy of appreciation.
Taking risks is not the same as being unrealistic, on the contrary, every adventure of the cold front is based on the situation that the objective conditions allow, which many people do not have.
Of course, there are other qualities, which make Liao Sen, a senior, very admirable, and he is willing to work under this junior brother.
It's not easy to have a boss who dares to take responsibility, at least you don't have to worry about those messy things, and you can concentrate on leading troops to fight, which is very comfortable.
"Yes, in order to better complete the first phase of the battle plan, this enemy must be dealt with first." Leng Feng said solemnly.
"Since this Japanese army has gained a firm foothold in Wujiang Town, it may be difficult to destroy it in a short period of time, unless we can draw more than three times the strength of our troops and deliver a devastating blow."
"It's not so much, it's enough to have the armored squadron of the special service regiment and a main regiment of Luo Yufeng"
"The new 3rd Brigade has moved eastward"
"Well, at noon today, it has been moved to He County, and the current location is in Wangzhuang, east of He County." Leng Feng nodded and explained.
"How many troops"
Leng Feng raised two fingers and said.
"Two thousand"
"If you count the additional regiment stationed in He County, there should be more than 3,000 people." Leng Feng said, "With the addition of the special service regiment, the two battalions of the Yaksha battalion and the supplementary brigade, as well as the armored squadron, we still have a slight advantage in strength. ”
"Well, in this way, it's not that this battle can't be fought"
"Come and see, I ordered the secret service group to give up such a piece, and the Japanese army took the opportunity to occupy this place"
"This piece of terrain is relatively flat, and there are not many obstacles," Liao Sen said, a gleam flashing in his eyes, "Armored cluster tactics"
"That's right, even though we only have one armored squadron, we can test this tactic on a small scale." Leng Feng smiled, Liao Sen deserved to have drunk foreign ink, and he reacted so quickly.
"I think so." Liao Sen thought for a moment and nodded.
"Okay, I know that you will definitely agree, in this way, I have discussed this tactic with you, and you know very well, you run it yourself, and this battle will be commanded by you." Leng Feng said.
"I" Liao Sen was a little surprised.
"Yes, that's why I'm in a hurry to call you back, although it's raining outside, but according to the weather conditions, this rain should stop soon, you take the car, do my car." Leng Feng commanded.
"Yes, Shizao" Liao Sen knew that this was Leng Feng giving him a chance, an opportunity for him to practice some of his ideas.
"Go, I'll wait for news of your victory." Leng Feng smiled slightly.
To be continued.
