"Master, since we know it's bait, why do we still eat it?" The staff officers of the General Staff Office, including Chief of Staff Long Yingqin, were a little incomprehensible to Leng Feng's decision. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Tufeiyuan is not like going south now, the 14th Division is his old bottom, if he fights out, he has no chance to turn over, if we don't eat his bait, he can only go south, and at that time, the Longhai line will be dangerous!" Leng Feng explained, "At this time, the Longhai line cannot afford to be lost. ”

"Then if we eat the bait, what will happen to the soil and fertilizer?"

"Since he doesn't want to go south, he will use our counterattack to make a fuss, and then force the Japanese top brass to accept his plan and consolidate the area now occupied by the 14th Division, waiting for the opportunity!"

"The 14th Division is a heavy mechanized corps, and running and movement are its strengths.

"No, he can see it, we already have signs of taking the initiative to give up Xuzhou, if we have to stop it at this time, even if he has more than 20,000 people in his hands and so much heavy equipment, he can't stop it, not to mention, he is very jealous of me, once he finds a chance for us, he will definitely give him a fatal blow." Leng Feng explained.

"Shizuo doesn't move Puyang now, he just doesn't want to force the soil fat dog to jump off the wall in a hurry, right?" Hu Yanan's eyes lit up and said.

"Smart, if I occupy Puyang now, it will be equivalent to abolishing the lifeline of Tufeiyuan, at this time, he has no choice, and he may be able to fight for a way to survive in the south."

"There are General Huang Jie's Eighth Army in Guide, and General Li Bohao's 64th Army, and the two armies together have more than 40,000 people, and there should be no problem in defending one Guide, not to mention that there are friendly troops of mine nearby, which can be reinforced at any time."

"Don't forget, the nearest Japanese army in Central China has been fighting with our army in Yongcheng for many days."

"Yes, Li Bohao's 64th Army needs to guard against a sneak attack from the Japanese army coming from northern Anhui, and Huang Jie's Eighth Army, to be honest, only the 40th Division has a little combat effectiveness."

"Isn't the division optimistic about the Eighth Army?"

"To be honest, although I don't know much about it, if the Eighth Army is really allowed to deal with the 14th Division in Shangtu Feiyuan, I am afraid it will be more than lucky." Leng Feng said.

"The 8th Army is also the main force of the Central Army, and its 40th Division has been reorganized from the Tax Police Corps, so its combat effectiveness should not be bad." Xie Jiyuan also felt that Leng Feng's assertion was too arbitrary.

Leng Feng didn't speak, if it was Gui Yongqing's 27th Army, he was not sure, after all, this army had been strengthened by his hands, and the 46th Division could be said to be strong and strong, not a little stronger than the army in history, and now Qiu Qingquan was the commander of the troops, and the situation was very different.

And Huang Jie's 8th Army is exactly the same as in history, if this guy makes the same choice, then Tufeiyuan will go south to Germany, and he will not be sure, and the defeat will be on him.

What will happen in the future, no one can say, but he wants to avoid it, and the consequences are very serious.

"We just don't put the soil in the field Kenji. If he is in a hurry, then he will still have illusions. Leng Feng explained, "Then next, it will be helpful for the retreat of our National Army in the Five Theaters." ”

Even if Huang Jie was not so willing, he had to obey Xue Boling's dispatch and withdraw a brigade from the 40th Division to go north to cooperate with the operation.

Song Yinguo was in Lanfeng, but he waited for the arrival of the 36th Division of his descendant, and he was a lot more confident.

Yu Liangzhen's division of the 74th Army, with the 51st Division as the forward, directed the troops to Dongming, assisting the remnants of the 23rd Division and Dong Zhao's 28th Division stationed there.

The First Corps of Eastern Henan and the Luxi Corps drew a big encirclement of the Tufeiyuan Division with Caozhou as the center.

Xue Boling and Leng Guoguang have teamed up!

This surprised many people, these two people's personalities are so proud, and they both have special personalities, I do my own thing, Xue Boling is more and more arrogant the older he gets, and he is also proud in his bones, Lao Jiang cherishes talents, and he is polite to him.

If these two people collide at this point, it is far more likely to compete with each other than to coexist peacefully and cooperate closely.

But now, these two people seem to have a very tacit understanding, no matter what action there is, the other one will follow immediately, just like brothers.

"A lot of people have dropped their glasses all over the place now?"

"Yes, Chief Xue, I'm afraid no one will believe that you will cooperate with Leng Guoguang so much, they still think that you will not obey anyone, and you will fight to the death in secret."

"That's because they don't understand me Xue Boling, I won't do this kind of thing that hurts relatives and enemies are happy." Xue Boling snorted coldly, there are too many corrupt and incompetent villains in the party.

"Then what if Leng Guoguang has to get along with you?"

"If he is such a person, there is no need to stay in the Fifth War Zone at the beginning, he can take the troops and rest comfortably in the rear, some people have their own evil intentions and think so dirty about others." Xue Boling Road.

"That's right, it seems that Chief Xue has found a soulmate?"

"Bosom friend, I can't talk about it yet, but this Leng Guoguang is a temper to me, I like it." The corners of Xue Boling's mouth twitched slightly, and he smiled softly.

"This can be described as a hero cherishing a hero, rare." Wu Xiqi said with a smile.

"Tell Song Yinguo that our goal is to knock on Tu Feiyuan, not to fight him, and the time is not yet ripe." Xue Boling ordered.

"And where is the 8th Army?"

"No need for me. Worry, Huang Jie estimated that he would deal with it, and sent a brigade over, how to fight the Third Army depended on others. ”

"Yes, understood."

"Hurry up and prepare for war, reserve ammunition, supervise the repair of fortifications, sooner or later we will have to fight with Tufeiyuan."

After meeting Kenji Dohihara, Umezu Mijiro returned to the headquarters of the First Army, and immediately afterwards held a staff meeting.

The content of the meeting was, of course, about the issue of the 14th Division continuing to move south to the Longhai line.

Umezu Mijiro could not only listen to the support of Kenji Dohihara, Miharu Tomokin, and others, but he also listened to the opinions of others, especially the chief of staff Shoji Iida.

Iida Shoji is a little contradictory, if you think about it from the perspective of the First Army, Kenji Dohihara is right, but if you look at the war situation of the entire empire in China, it seems that Terauchi Shouichi is right.

It was not an easy task to choose between the two, especially since he did not dare to take a position casually until he was not clear about the attitude of the new commander.

Of course, Iida Shoji did not express his position directly, and something could be seen in the eyes of Umezu Mijiro, at least Iida Shoji was not a die-hard supporter of Terauchi Shouichi, otherwise, he would not have failed to give an attitude.

Most of the staff officers of the First Army were also inclined to the interests of the First Army, and Kenji Dohihara undoubtedly represented the interests of the First Army.

This is not in the interests of the First Army, which has already suffered considerable losses in Shanxi, and if it loses again, it will inevitably weaken the overall strength of the First Army.

The fate of the 14th Division, Umezu Mijiro's attitude was very crucial, he was the commander of the First Army, and he was the direct boss of Kenji Dohihara.

If he supports Dohihara's plan, Dohihara naturally has room to return, and if he agrees with Terauchi Shouichi's opinion, then Kenji Dohihara can only lead the team south.

But the problem is, Kenji Dohihara is sick now, even if he left the army without permission, how can a sick person command the troops?

Therefore, if the will of His Excellency General Shouichi Terauchi is carried out and the 14th Division moves south to the Longhai Line, the division commander of the 14th Division will also have to find someone to replace him temporarily.

No matter what decision is made, the handle is grasped in the hands of others, and if the order to go south is carried out, if it fails, it will naturally be held responsible, and if it is not carried out the order, it will also be held responsible, and maybe it will have to carry a big black cauldron.

Umezu Mijiro regretted it a little, why did he come to pick up such a hot potato, if he was like General Sugiyama Moto, he would be hospitalized and separated from the cecum, maybe he wouldn't use it.

He was kicked out, and if he didn't come, I'm afraid he would have to be transferred to the reserves, the reality is so cruel.

Kenji Dohihara is also very anxious, one more day of waiting, the opponent will be able to prepare for one more day, from the information he currently has, the Honor 1st Division has freed up most of the main force to deal with him, and the elite new 38th Division drawn from the Xuzhou battlefield, these two troops were originally one family, these two troops can be said to be the strongest in the Chinese army now, and they are the strong opponents of the 14th Division.

Except for these two troops, the rest of the Chinese army Kenji Tohihara did not take it to heart.

The strength of the 14th Division is now damaged, but in his opinion, it is still capable of fighting the Honor 1st Division and the new 38th Division, and even defeating the opponent is no problem.

The problem is that he does not have independent command, and what he wants to do is seriously interfered with from above, while his opponent is the opposite, although Chairman Chiang's favorite thing is to interfere with the military command below, but this time, he has changed his past style and rarely personally intervenes in command.

In the past, as long as Mr. Jiang intervened in the command, the opportunity of the empire came, and it could always defeat the opponent, but in Taierzhuang, Xuzhou, although that Mr. Jiang also intervened, it was originally an opportunity, but due to the stupidity of some people, he failed to seize it, and an elite division was buried.

And in Luxi, Mr. Jiang's ability to interfere is almost invisible, and they are very passive, and now there is a powerful figure sitting in eastern Henan.

This Xue Boling is also an opponent to be reckoned with.

What Kenji Dohihara was most afraid of was that Leng Feng and Xue Boling would join forces, in that case, the situation of the 14th Division would be even more difficult, fortunately, when he was fighting Leng Feng, Xue Boling did not make any moves, but chose to wait and see.

He hoped that Xue Boling would continue to wait and see like this forever, but the wish was good, the reality was cruel, and the adjutant soon brought him the movements of the First Corps under Xue Boling.

His decoy was discovered at the same time, and the 14th Division was surrounded.
