Shandong Ye County, known as Laizhou in ancient times, after the Xinhai Revolution, the Republic of China government abolished the government to stay in the county, the land of the two states and five counties is unified as the land of Ye County under the direct jurisdiction of the provincial government, the first independent brigade of the Shandong Army received an order from Wei County to move here, the order is very hasty, the requirements are also extremely harsh, the independent brigade must complete the deployment in Ye County within one day, and form a combat effectiveness that can confront the Japanese army head-on with at least one division and regiment.

There is no railway between Weixian and Yexian, so the soldiers can only rely on their legs, and the marching ranks stretch for several kilometers.

In addition to the infantry extending north along the road, the automobile team roared by in groups of three or five, kicking up smoke and dust, which did not disperse for a long time, and the brigade headquarters of the brigade commander Zhang Zhonglin maintained a certain degree, and in the middle of the marching team that stretched for several kilometers, since the Battle of Songhu, he completely gained a foothold in the Shandong army, and Wu Xiaoliang seemed to attach great importance to him, and in just a few months, he took the opportunity of expanding the army to promote him to brigade commander.

The independent brigade of the Shandong Army is different from the brigade in the previous establishment of the Nationalist Government, and the strength under its jurisdiction is actually equivalent to a division, and it attaches great importance to the storage of artillery in terms of firepower, so a heavy artillery regiment is arranged in the combat establishment of the independent brigade alone, of course, this is also a factor in considering its independent combat mission, in any case, among the three independent brigades expanded by the Shandong Army, Zhang Zhonglin controlled the strongest one among them.

Seeing that the formation of the team had been completely disrupted because of the rapid march, Zhang Zhonglin was very anxious in his heart, for fear that something unexpected would happen in the process, but he had no second choice, if he arrived at Ye County on time according to the orders of the headquarters and successfully completed the deployment before the specified time, he had to gamble on it.

"Brigade, the automobile and material transport team that set off in advance has arrived in Ye County."

The communications soldier reported to Zhang Zhonglin in real time the progress of each department, and he raised his left wrist to look at the time, and his voice was anxious.

"It's still too slow, it's going to speed up."

After that, he looked at the sun that was already setting to the west, "The headquarters must arrive at the destination before the sun completely sets, and give the order to go down, all troops can advance lightly, and the heavy weapons combat units can temporarily separate from the combat units and return to the army after they arrive in Ye County." ”

For the sake of marching, Zhang Zhonglin once again gave the order to march in batches and strip off the heavy weapons units.

This is also a last resort, the content of yesterday's telegram is still vivid, Zhang Zhonglin smelled a trace of unusual smell from the tone of the headquarters, although he did not say the reason, but he had already faintly realized something, the pressure suddenly appeared, in addition to the bottom of his heart there was a trace of excitement, as a general with troops, he was eager to kill the enemy more than most of his colleagues.

There was a sudden chaos in front of the marching procession, and the slender procession, which had been dragged on, gathered a large group of soldiers like a river being swept across a dam, and it was chaotic.

Zhang Zhonglin and his entourage had to stop and call the adjutant.

"Go ahead and check what's going on."

Before the adjutant could leave, the messenger came from the side of the rebels.

"The report shows that the supply truck of the car transport team has overturned, the whole cart of ammunition has been depleted, and the road has been blocked."

Zhang Zhonglin's brows were twisted into Sichuan characters, what are you afraid of, is God making trouble for him again, the car transporting ammunition overturned, if it weren't for Yan zhòng's question, the road would not be blocked, and the actual situation would definitely be much better than the Yan zhòng reported by the signal soldiers, but time waits for no one.

"Give up the ammunition and leave all the stranded teams on a detour."

"Yes."

The adjutant went to give the order, and the signal soldier also wanted to follow, but was stopped by Zhang Zhonglin, who had to know the closest thing to the truth.

In Jinan, as soon as the air raid siren was lifted, Wu Xiaoliang and a cadre of military and political dignitaries discussed the situation in front of them in the temporary headquarters in the air-raid shelter; after the beginning of March, the Japanese army's reconnaissance planes appeared more and more frequently, and the targets of the bombing also spread from barracks and fortifications to indiscriminate bombing.

Naturally, the military and political chief's office of the Shandong Army has also become the top priority of the bombing target, and as early as when Wu Xiaoliang first took charge of Shandong, he attached great importance to dealing with the gaps, and built four air-raid shelters in the urban area that could accommodate more than 100,000 people.

And it was these bomb shelters that became the best places for citizens to avoid the bombing of the Japanese Air Force, and civilians could not help it, and even the offices of various military and political departments were all moved into the bomb shelters.

"Brother Zhongwu, there is still a lot of material needed in Ye County, we must do our best to replenish the qi, the supply to Henan can be slowed down, and the east must not relax."

"Yes."

The Shandong money bag of the chief of the Yantai Jize is the least amount of silver in the treasury that he has left since he followed Wu Xiaoliang, and there is no one, and now he has a feeling that it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, Japan began to carry out a naval blockade of northern China as early as half a year ago, and because China does not have a navy, it is almost equivalent to giving up the entire sea control power, so the sea aid materials of the Shandong army have almost been cut off, and Pingjin has fallen, and Liangda hastened to withdraw from the base camp in China, which has caused certain losses.

On the other hand, due to the expansion of China's war and the comprehensive strict zhòng affected the normal operation of industry and commerce, the investment of the Liangda consortium in China has shrunk one after another, and at the same time, after the fall of Pingjin, a large number of Liangda assets in the Pingjin area have fallen into the mouth of the Japanese army.

At the same time, the Shandong Army had to divide the elite troops into two parts, one of the most combatant main forces was deployed to the most capable Deng6 location, and the other was to continue to stay in Gaomi as a mobile force, so that once there was a change in the coast, they could reinforce as soon as possible, without waiting for the transfer authorization of the headquarters.

In particular, the telegram from Peiping, which was sent by an emergency radio station, Wu Xiaoliang could not bear the authenticity of the contents of the telegram, but then another telegram followed, explaining and supplementing the problems in the first telegram.

The content of the second telegram is too appalling, if what is said is true, then it is a guarantee of the victory of the Shandong army, and at the same time, Wu Xiaoliang is also worried about the delivery of this telegram, such a dense telegram will definitely attract the attention of the Japanese intelligence department, and I hope that he will not use the emergency radio again in a short time.

Wu Xiaoliang drew a heavy circle in pencil on two locations on the military map.
