All along, it was you who was fighting, and others were watching, but now it's the other way around, and it's someone else who is fighting, and you are watching from the sidelines.

Although it is not that he himself wants to be idle, however, this feeling is somewhat uncomfortable for a soldier who naturally likes to fight.

Of course, Leng Feng is not a battle maniac, only when he is on the battlefield!

There are not many people in the Fifth Theater who know the secrets of the 1st Division of Honor lurking in Weishan Lake, only a few people such as Li Delin, and these people are all experienced military commanders, and they will never use the 1st Division of Honor unless absolutely necessary.

The goal of the 1st Division of Honor was not in the initial period of the war.

Whether it is Li Delin and Lao Jiang in Wuhan, they are all a little ambitious.

It is said that Lao Chiang's mind is not above the anti-Japanese resistance, which is admittedly a little true, but the anti-Japanese resistance of Lao Chiang is based on his own interests.

If it is beneficial for him to resist Japan, he will naturally resist Japan, and if he supports it, he will go all out, but if it is not good for him, or the cost is too great, he will retreat, this is an opportunist!

Therefore, it seems that Lao Chiang is vacillating on the issue of resisting Japan, and even has some thoughts of "yearning for peace talks", but in fact, his inner selfish interests are making trouble.

The 1st Honorable Division now has two sources of battlefield intelligence: on the one hand, it is its own intelligence network, mainly the information sent back by the reconnaissance detachment sent out and the latent intelligence team, and the second is the headquarters of the commander of the 5th Theater, where there is a special liaison group, which is responsible for all communication with the Honorable 1st Division and the transmission of the battle situation.

Relatively speaking, most of the channels of the Honor First Division are some battlefield live information, and they are all fragmented information, which needs to be analyzed and captured to find useful information.

Therefore, it is more comprehensive to obtain information from the headquarters of the commander of the fifth theater.

On the battlefield north of Jinpu Road, the Honor 1st Division still needs to rely on the intelligence department of the Fifth Theater, and the southern section of Jinpu Road needs to rely on itself to some extent.

The main battlefield is in the Lunan region north of Xuzhou, but the southern front cannot be ignored.

Although the Japanese army in Central China was beaten by the Honorary First Division before, their combat effectiveness is still much stronger than that of the **** general troops, and they still hold a hateful heart.

As soon as the first division of honor is withdrawn, they will definitely sprinkle their anger of revenge on the 31st Army, which has changed its defense.

Obviously, the Japanese army was already on the move, dispatching the 9th Division and the Iizuka Detachment of the 101st Division from Yangzhou, with a total of more than 20,000 people attacking from the east.

On the front of Nanjing, the 1st Division of the 3rd Division, the 111th Brigade of the 106th Division, and the main forces of the 18th Division transferred from Huzhou launched a new round of landing operations against Pukou under the command of Lieutenant General Sadao Ushijima, commander of the 18th Division.

This Japanese army of nearly 30,000 people, as well as Japanese troops transferred from the mainland one after another, will be stationed in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions to fill the gap left by the main field division of the Japanese army.

The Jiangfang Brigade, which had been changed from the Anhui Security Brigade, collapsed almost at the touch of a button, and within half a day it lost its Jiangfang positions and was defeated on all fronts.

After determining that the new 38th Brigade was no longer the hard one, the Japanese army attacked all the way like a bamboo, and captured Chuxian, Quanjiao and other places in less than two days.

The 31st Army retreated to Chihe, Mingguang and other places, relying on the fortifications built by the 1st Honor Division, barely blocking the Japanese army's front.

Liao Lei, chairman of the Anhui Provincial Government and commander of the southern line of Jinpu Road, sent the 7th Army and the 51st Army to rush to help.

Upstream Yuxikou, the Japanese Sixth Division entangled heavy troops to attack the north again, or Niu Daoman, this time it only took him a day and a half, he set foot on the land of Yuxikou, Huainan Railway is in an emergency!

The situation on the southern front looked even more critical than it looked on the northern front.

Once the Japanese army breaks through the Huai River in the north and cuts off the Longhai Road, the 200,000 **** in Xuzhou will become a turtle in the urn.

There is also the 5th Division of the Japanese Army in the direction of Linyi.

The Fifth Theater was facing tremendous pressure from the three-front operation, and the success or failure of the Battle of Xuzhou was related to the overall situation of the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression in the future, and the situation suddenly took a sharp turn for the worse.

The victory of the Japanese army on the southern front also stimulated the Japanese army on the northern front, and a mere Teng county actually blocked the powerful Japanese 10th Division for four whole days.

And it only took so much time for Central China to send troops to attack Nanjing, the capital of China, could it be that this small city of Teng County can be stronger than the capital of a country?

On the Linyi side, the Third Army retreated from Juxian and joined forces with Zhang Xinchen's 59th Army, with a total strength of more than 30,000 people.

The Japanese army wants to break through Linyi and go south to Taierzhuang, I am afraid it is still a little difficult, which also makes Li Delin, the commander of the Fifth Theater, feel a little gratified, and it was right to choose these two troops to defend Linyi.

Defending Taierzhuang is the new 38 brigade, this unit is probably the most well-equipped **** in the fifth theater now, although there are more than 10,000 people, but when Li Delin saw the military appearance of the new 38 brigade, he was shocked!

This unit was almost completely comparable to the Japanese army, except for a slightly weaker air defense.

Leng Feng allocated the Honor 1st Division Tank Brigade to the new 38 Brigade to make up for the shortcomings of the new 38 Brigade in attacking fortifications.

In order to conceal the plan, only a part of the attacking force belonging to the Honorary First Division can be sacrificed.

After the new 38 Brigade was stationed in Taierzhuang, Li Delin personally went over to inspect it, and he was full of praise for the military quality of the new 38 Brigade, saying that the new 38 Brigade was guarding Taierzhuang and that Xuzhou would sit back and relax.

Everyone knows that Tengxian can't hold it, but it can't be defended, and the defense is just to delay the enemy and buy time for their own troops to move.

Leng Feng has been familiar with the battle situation all morning, and now he can't just look at one domain, he has to consider the overall situation of the entire battlefield, and even think about the situation of the whole country.

This is the reason for seeking government in his position.

"Report!"

"Come in!"

"Guo Xing, what, it's not noon yet, your plan is ready!" Leng Feng asked in surprise.

"Yes, Sir Leng, this is a plan we have drawn up, please take a look!" Guo Xing walked over and handed over a folder.

"Okay, I'll see!" Leng Feng flipped through the folder, and there was indeed a plan inside, which not only contained detailed text explanations, but also an interspersed road map that they had drawn up, which obviously referred to the intelligence of the Japanese army.

Leng Feng looked at Guo Xing's plan and was a little surprised, not only their speed, but also that this Guo Xing actually guessed his intentions, the goal of the team was Teng County.

"Guo Xing, let me ask you, why do you think in the plan that the goal of the squad is Teng County, and not the communication line or other targets of the Japanese army behind enemy lines?" Leng Feng closed the folder and asked.

"Chief Leng's troops are not just as simple as attacking or attacking the supply lines of the Japanese army, Tengxian is just a chess piece, its real purpose is to delay the Japanese army, give us time to mobilize troops, and wait for the Japanese army to drive straight in, and encircle and annihilate it, at this time, the most important thing for the Honor First Division to do is to do nothing and wait for the opportunity, but Commander Leng wants to make such a plan from his humble position, obviously going to the defenders of Tengxian County." Guo Xing said, "You can't bear to let this bloody army be wiped out by the Japanese army like this, so you plan to send someone to rescue them." ”

"Okay, well said, Guo Xing, you really impress me!" Leng Feng applauded.

"Thank you, Chief Leng, for getting along with your subordinates for many days, listening to a lot of stories about you, sir, and admiring you very much!" Guo Xing owes himself.

"Those are all in the past, then tell me, what is the hope of success if I really send such a force to meet the defenders of Tengxian County to break through?"

"It's hard to say this humble position, in terms of the equipment and equipment of the squad, it is not difficult to tear a hole in it, but the difficult thing is how to evacuate and where to evacuate." Guo Xingdao.

"What do you suggest?"

"Improvise, I have a suggestion, but I don't know if to talk about it?"

"It's okay for you to say it!"

"If the team can safely meet the evacuation of the defenders of Teng County, it is recommended that they move in the direction of Zaozhuang and finally withdraw to Taierzhuang." Guo Xingdao.

Leng Feng just looked at Guo Xing for ten seconds, without blinking his eyes.

"Chief Leng......" Guo Xing was a little hairy when Leng Feng looked at him.

"Do you know that if you take this path, even if you stand out, how many of them will survive in the end?" Leng Feng said.

"I know it, but I must not let the Japanese suspect that the troops who received the defenders of Fuji County came to Weishan Lake!" Guo Xing explained.

"I think, I think!" Leng Feng nodded, emotionally speaking, this is difficult to accept, but from a military point of view, Guo Xing is right, and he doesn't know it.

"Master, the plan has been made!" Bai Pengfei was one step later than Guo Xing, but he did it in advance within the specified time.

Bai Pengfei's plan is also good, and the operability is also very strong, however, he does not think about the problem as Guo Xing in the long run, and Bai Pengfei knows that Leng Feng is ready to send troops to meet the Tengxian defenders to break through, and the plan is very targeted.

Compared with Guo Xing's own analysis and speculation, it is naturally inferior.

"The two of you will synthesize the plan, and the route of retreat will be arranged according to the line to Zaozhuang and Taierzhuang, and give you half an hour!"

Guo Xing and Bai Pengfei glanced at each other and saluted together: "Yes!" ”

The team's plan to break through with the defenders of Teng County was quickly placed in front of Leng Feng, and he took a look at it, which basically met his own ideas.

"Guo Xing, you take this plan to report to Liang Dong, the chief of staff of the new 40th Brigade, and he will arrange your next work."

"Sir Leng, this ......"

"Being a good staff officer not only has the ability to work on the map, but also has actual combat experience, I give you this opportunity, don't you want to go?"

"Willing to do it!" Guo Xing thought about it, this plan was formulated by him, just like his own child, if he couldn't participate in person, it would be a pity, not to mention, he also wanted to make contributions on the battlefield.

At this point, the command team of this squad has been set up.

Around four o'clock in the afternoon.

"Division, the 4th Division of the 85th Army exchanged fire with the Japanese in the area of Guanqiao in the south of Tengxian County, the 4th Division was defeated and retreated, and Chifengcheng of the 31st Division of the Second Army led the team to the top, which stabilized the front."

"Tang Xiaoying reported that the Japanese army captured Nanguan in Tengxian County, he led a small detachment to support Dongguan, repelled three attacks by the Japanese army, the squad killed two people, wounded three people, the defenders are currently engaged in street battles with the Japanese army, at present, Beicheng and Xicheng and Xiguan Station are still in our hands, there are less than 3,000 Sichuan troops in the city, 2,000 young and strong, and thousands of wounded, and the seriously wounded continue to die......"

"Will you be able to hold out until tomorrow night?"

"Commander Wang Zhizhong, they plan to concentrate on a counterattack after nightfall to drive out the Japanese troops who broke into the city, with the street fighting skills we taught, it should be possible." Guo Weiquan said.

"In addition, the arrival of the 85th Army and the Second Army also dispersed the Japanese army, and the intensity of the artillery bombardment and bombardment in the afternoon was much less!"

"Telegraph Tang Xiaoying, ask him to tell Commander Wang Zhizhong, and ask him to hold out until dark tomorrow, when there will be a force to meet them and break through!" Leng Feng ordered.

"Do you want to tell Commander Wang Zhizhong the truth?"

"Don't, just say it's a secret message from the Fifth Theater Commander's Department, and it needs to be relayed through their radio station because of secrecy." Leng Feng shook his head.

"Will Commander Wang believe it?"

"Don't say it now, when to say it, let Tang Xiaoying decide for herself."
