The chief of staff knew Hu Lian's temper, and it was useless to say more, so he did not dissuade him.

The 16th Division finally fought a good battle, and I don't know how comfortable it was. I hope to continue to advance and take Wang Zhuang, preferably to defeat the opponent's military headquarters.

After Yu Chengwan learned that Xiqiao had missed, he also made a big jump, immediately contracted the defensive line, gave up Yaoguantun, and retreated to Dahezhuang.

Concentrating their forces to attack the Chinese troops defending in front, they were already isolated, and sure enough, they held out until twelve o'clock in the evening, and chose to retreat. However, the Chinese troops did not retreat blindly, but resisted step by step, which made Itagaki Seishiro feel very uncomfortable. "Shameless! It's so shameless. "When Tang Enbo heard that the Japanese had won the victory at the front with Chinese hostages, he had fallen into a state of madness, which in his opinion was a disgrace for the soldiers.

"Captain Tang, now is not the time for us to fall into anger, when we are angry, the devil will be satisfied." At this time, Liu Yuan's face was blue, and he was also very sad in his heart, but there were so many Chinese, it was impossible to fight there, they all took the people away, and relocated to the land, where can he move them.

"Wait, don't let Lao Tzu find an opportunity, if Lao Tzu has a chance to defeat Tokyo in the future, Lao Tzu will kill their emperor." Tang Enbo said angrily.

Liu Yuan was much calmer than Tang Enbo, and after thinking for a while, he said to Li An, "Telegraph to Yu Chengwan and Hu Lian, the area north of Linyi will be defended by them, remember that you must work together to achieve victory." ”

Tang Enbo knew very well that he heard Liu Yuan's dissatisfaction with him, and he saw that Yu Chengwan was close to Liu Yuan, so he deliberately looked for Yu Chengwan and asked him to pay attention to his identity, which seemed to have worked well, but the price was also very heavy.

Before Tang Enbo could say anything, Liu Yuan continued, "Order Sun Liren and Xu Guangda to speed up the march, and the 1st Mechanized Brigade must arrive before dawn. ”

"Telegraphed to Wang Zhonglian that the feint attack on Daiwang Mountain was changed to a forcible attack, and ordered the 79th Brigade of the 24th Division to forcibly cross the river, and give the rear of Itagaki for a while, if he didn't educate him well, he must have forgotten what chrysanthemum tactics were." Liu Yuan slapped it on the table fiercely.

After Hu Lian and Yu Chengwan received Liu Yuan's telegram, they understood Liu Yuan's worry and anger in the telegram.

Although they exchanged messages, they wanted to respond to each other, and they didn't even think about it. Hu Lian, as a junior junior, is already a military commander, and Yu Chengwan, as the eldest brother of the first phase, is still a division commander, so both of them are very embarrassed.

Yu Chengwan was afraid that he would be underestimated by Hu Lian, and Hu Lian was afraid that Yu Chengwan would rely on his identity as a senior to give himself a blind command. Fortunately, Yu Chengwan has some understanding of Hu Lian's ability, otherwise according to Huangpu's habits, he would have ordered Hu Lian a long time ago.

Liu Yuan's telegram was very clear, Yu Chengwan's division had more than 11,000 people, and more than 10,000 people in a brigade in Itagaki were blocked.

It was about to arrive in Linyi, the moonlight was very bright, there was the sound of cars rumbling everywhere, the soldiers were holding their guns, sleeping in the truck in a daze, their eyes were red, and they almost turned into the ditch several times.

Sun Liren personally drove the command car, and Xu Guangda looked at the truck outside the window, his face full of melancholy.

"Bang!" With a loud bang, the truck hit a tree, the soldiers on the car jumped out of the car in a hula, and the officers instantly completed the organization of the defensive formation of the troops.

Sun Liren and Xu Guangda nodded with great satisfaction, this is the most essential part of the mechanized army, starting from the Lushan training regiment, they have been working on the formation of the mechanized talk unit, but all kinds of resources have been taken away by Chiang Kai-shek under various pretexts.

Up to now, the mechanized division has not been fully organized and trained, and it is not easy to have such a fully mechanized brigade. However, the 1st Mechanized Brigade is a reinforced brigade, and the whole brigade has 15,000 people, which is more than a small division.

Moreover, the commander Liu Yuan is an extremely generous person, Liu Yuan equipped him with all kinds of heavy firepower, 100 mm howitzers, all kinds of rocket launchers, and 60 mortars, which is definitely a more powerful existence than the Central Army.

However, as a training unit in Lushan, Sun Liren's existence has always been an embarrassment, he came back from the United States, he received preferential treatment from Liu Yuan, and all kinds of treatment were given to him, but he has not come up with a suitable record, so that many people are secretly sarcastic about themselves, saying that they are the prince's own soldiers, and they will never have the opportunity to go to the battlefield.

"Report." The communication soldier broke the thinking of the two generals, Xu Guangda turned his head and glanced at the communication soldier, "What's the matter?" ”

"Director of the Xuzhou camp, Admiral Liu Yuan sent a telegram that the intensity of the Japanese attack in the north of Linyi was too high, and asked our army to arrive in the Linyi area before dawn at the latest."

"Call back, tell the commander that our mechanized troops will never slap him in the face, and we will definitely arrive before dawn." Sun Liren said with great confidence.

Sun Liren looked up at the moon in the sky, there was still some distance before dawn, and he should be able to reach it. It was at this time that he saw a row of trucks pulling howitzers and cannons that actually ran in front of him.

"Who the fuck knows what's going on." Sun Liren asked with a frown.

Xu Guangda didn't react either, what the hell happened, they were summoned and ran to the front to drive the command car, according to the usual practice, the brigade headquarters was in the middle of the troops.

The staff officer hurried to the front and stopped the truck, and the entire artillery convoy had to stop, causing the mighty hundreds of trucks to stop.

"Brigade, I brought the people."

Sun Liren glanced at it, and it turned out that the commander of the artillery regiment went up to give him a boring education, "Are you crazy?" How did you run to the front of the troops, and what if you encountered a small army of devils. ”

"Brigadier Commander!" This regiment commander turned out to be an officer student of the Wuhan Branch, when he was in the Lushan Training Regiment, he served as an artillery instructor, and later was assigned to Sun Liren as the commander of the artillery regiment, "Brigade seat, this Linyi is still in our hands, we don't have to worry, we are going to the front line to set up artillery positions in advance." ”

"Commander, how come you are a foolish student, what if we encounter a squad of devils." Sun Liren scolded this regiment commander fiercely in his heart, and he had to admire his commander, he was really a protégé all over the world, no matter where he went, there were his students, and he heard that he was in trouble on the front line, and there was no one who would not give way.

Two days ago, many troops were in the logistics department, their trucks ran out of gas, the quartermaster was like his father, no one knew where Lu Dao went, as soon as his convoy appeared, he immediately saw the quartermaster with a smile like a chrysanthemum, and he would make up for what he needed.

The artillery regiment Zhang Man's mind is full of Liu Yuan, there are other thoughts there, Xu Guangda saw that Sun Liren was uncomfortable, but it may not be a good thing to have such a powerful Shangguan. But if the little devil's plane takes off in the middle of the night, it will definitely not be a good thing.

"Third battalion commander, come with them." Xu Guangda immediately thought of a solution.

The commander of the third battalion, who had no choice but to jump off the motorcycle with his soldiers and run to the truck.

"Pass my order, the troops march at full speed, useless things, things that get in the way, all thrown away." After Sun Liren finished speaking, he continued to drive his command car forward.

Compared with the 1st Mechanized Brigade, Liao Yaoxiang's newly formed 41st Division is also advancing rapidly, Liao Yaoxiang has the same treatment as Sun Liren, riding a war horse, but other soldiers do not have this treatment. I can only run on the ground with a hiss.

Plop. A soldier fell to the ground.

"I can't do it, I really can't do it. I can't run. ”

"I'll come." A veteran soldier with a tiger's back put the fallen soldier on his shoulder and shouted to the soldiers beside him, "Everyone hurry forward, the commander is in big trouble on the front line, waiting for us to come to the rescue!" ”

Liao Yaoxiang saw that his soldiers were so competitive, and he was unhappy in his heart, it was impossible. Put the soldier on the horse, regardless of the tears of the soldier's emotion, he also tied the gun to the horse and shouted to the soldier, "Brothers, hurry up, Sun Liren and their mechanical troops are in front, if you go late, you won't be able to catch devils." ”

"Division commander, don't worry, the commander said that my sister-in-law is all laps, and if she can't run fast, we will definitely be able to catch up." The soldier shouted confidently.

"As long as you fucking know, take two quick steps, hurry up, maybe I can catch a Japanese girl for you!" Liao Yaoxiang shouted loudly: "Catch the Japanese girls." The soldiers laughed together.

At this time, Itagaki also knew the news that Liu Yuan had transferred reinforcements, and it was very rare to launch a night battle.
