Chapter 789: Leng Feng has made a move
"The commander of the division, the military department called, the chief of staff of Major General Naosaburo Okambi has arrived in Taiyuan, and last night Commander Umezu personally hosted a banquet to receive the wind, and Minister Hashimoto also attended the dinner......
"Got it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
"Takahashi Hao called, this morning, there was indeed an arms train arrived in Caozhuang, accompanied by the Jin Sui army, judging from the amount of arms and ammunition transported, at least thousands of tons."
"Thousands of tons?" Kenji Dohihara suddenly opened his eyes, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
"Division commander, now that we are sending ground troops over, it is obviously impossible to do it, can we contact General Tokugawa of the First Flying Regiment, if we can bomb this small station in Caozhuang, the first division of honor will not be able to get ammunition supplies, and the threat to our army will inevitably be much smaller, so that our pressure will not be so great." Tadayoshi Sano suggested excitedly.
"This is indeed a good way, send a telegram to Takahashi Hiroshi, ask him to confirm the location coordinates of Caozhuang station and the munitions train, I expect that after unloading the ammunition, they will not transport it immediately, only at night, with the cover of the night, they can avoid our aerial reconnaissance." Kenji Dohihara said, "Unless they are short of ammunition, is there anything unusual on Toshima-kun's side?" ā
"General Toshima's offensive was very fierce, and the Chinese defense line was almost immediately defeated, but they fought very stubbornly, especially the unit under the 1st Division of the Honor Division of the Shina Army, and if it were not for the drag of Sun Yinting's 20th Division and 81st Division, Toshima-kun would not have been able to break through the outer positions of Dingtao."
"As soon as Toshima-kun made a move, it was really extraordinary." Kenji Dohihara smiled slightly, "Sano-kun, personally go and send a batch of supplies to Toshima-kun......"
"Understood, division commander." After listening to Kenji Dohihara's instructions, Tadayoshi Sano nodded seriously.
Leng Feng had already transferred the command of the 1st Division of Honor to Juye, which was located in the middle of Caozhou and Yuncheng, and was about far away from the two cities, so it was convenient to command from the center.
After the new 40th Brigade took over the 22nd Division, the Yuncheng side no longer had any pressure on the Sakai detachment, and the special service regiment and the new 37th Brigade were also withdrawn to Juye for rest.
Two regiments of the new 36th Brigade were also transferred to Yuncheng.
In this way, the Yuncheng side almost concentrated five infantry regiments, as well as the troops directly under the brigade headquarters of the 40th Brigade, adding up to 12,000 people.
Almost three times as large as the Sakai detachment.
There is also a heavy artillery regiment, and the heavy artillery regiment when Xie Zao also arrived in Yuncheng.
As soon as he arrived in Juye, the headquarters was set up in the Juye County Office, and before he had settled down, Leng Feng received a telegram from Zhang Zhongling that the new 39th Brigade had begun to move.
The target was Puyang, which was occupied by the Japanese army.
In addition to the new 39th Brigade, the 1st Division of the Luxi People's Army and the cavalry regiment led by Liang Dong also cooperated to join this operation.
The three troops, together with the nearby anti-Japanese guerrillas, had a total strength of nearly 20,000 troops.
20,000 people suddenly slaughtered Puyang.
North of the Yellow River, the Japanese troops in the Japanese-occupied area suddenly jumped up in shock.
Distress telegrams poured like snowflakes towards Kenji Dohihara's headquarters.
Kenji Dohihara's face was very bad, and he thought that Leng Feng was going to do something to him soon, but he thought that Leng Feng would take Juancheng first.
Those Juancheng, controlling the Dongkou ferry and cutting off his supply channel, will definitely give him a fatal blow.
Therefore, he ordered Takashi Sakai to suspend the attack on Yuncheng, focusing on the defense of the Dongkou ferry, especially the pontoon bridge, which could not be lost.
This is the lifeline of the 14th Division.
He never expected that Leng Feng did not directly attack Juancheng, but burned the fire directly to his backyard.
Puyang!
"Poof!"
Kenji Tsuchihara couldn't bear such a blow, and a mouthful of blood that was holding back his heart spurted on the map at once.
"Division Commander!"
"Order Takashi Sakai, at all costs, you must hold Puyang, order the independent Fourth Brigade to enter the crossing, and send reinforcements to Puyang, be quick!" Kenji Dohihara pushed the adjutant away and shouted an order at Tadashi Sano.
"Hay!"
"Leng Guoguang, you are so ruthless!" Kenji Dohihara's eyes widened in anger and howled like a badly injured wolf!
He still miscalculated, this Leng Guoguang didn't take Sakai Takashi to heart at all, he was going to completely cut off his logistical supplies and not give him any way out.
Ordinary people think that as long as Juancheng is occupied, the logistics channel of the 14th Division will be cut off, but this is not absolute, because the truncated channel can still be opened.
As long as the main force of the 14th Division returned to help, Kenji Dohihara would be sure to reoccupy Juancheng and restore the logistics channel.
But Leng Feng wants to destroy his logistics supply base directly from the follow-up, and if he destroys the pontoon bridge, it will be equivalent to completely cutting off his logistics channel.
How long can an army without logistical supplies last?
This is to completely leave his 14th Division behind.
This is really a wrong step, a wrong step, Kenji Dohihara regretted it, or he decided to retreat immediately, so that the 14th Division could naturally be saved, but his personal future would definitely be over.
Either carry out the order of Shouichi in the temple, make a desperate bet, and go south, that is also a life of nine deaths.
And now, he had no other choice.
"Order, leave a part of the ammunition for the Sakai detachment, and the rest of the ammunition and food will be transported to Caozhou." Kenji Dohihara's eyes flashed with a fierce light, "Order Takashi Sakai to be ready to abandon Juancheng at any time." ā
"Give up Juancheng, division commander, we haven't reached that point yet, have we?"
"You don't understand, since this Leng Feng has done it, then the back hand must be one move after another, so that you have no time to react, we can't be led by his nose, otherwise, we can't solve the dilemma in front of us at all."
"But if we give up Juancheng, then the only way back is gone?"
"Lan Feng, as long as the Fourth Independent Brigade erects a pontoon bridge on the opposite bank of Chenliukou, ours will be able to go back alive." Kenji Tohihara said a little bit in a certain position northwest of Lanfeng.
"Division, according to reconnaissance, Takashi Sakai has given up the attack on our army's position, and its main force is constantly retreating......"
"Order Dai Xu, press it on me, bite the main force of Takashi Sakai to death, at this time the Japanese army is retreating, it must be the old devil Kenji Dohihara who has reacted, I want to dig his roots!" Leng Feng took a sip of water and gave an order decisively.
"Yes!"
"Order the new 36th Brigade to make a detour along the Jinsong River and prepare to intercept the Sakai detachment!"
"Isn't the interception of the Sakai detachment supposed to block the Japanese reinforcements in Caozhou?" All the staff officers in the command were a little puzzled.
"This bureau I set up is close to no solution, north of the Yellow River, the Japanese army does not have a strong force, even if Taiyuan can send reinforcements, it is difficult to rush to help in a short time, now the Japanese army is in Henan, north of the Yellow River, and it is an independent mixed 4th brigade, unless Kenji Dohihara now pulls the 14th Division back to the north of the Yellow River, otherwise, the Japanese troops in Henan north of the Yellow River can only hold along the railway line, so they have no strength to deal with us, so, Kenji Dohihara has two options, Sakai commands to return to the north bank, Or go south to meet Kenji Dohihara, both of these options have a premise, that is, to give up Juancheng! ā
"Will Tu Feiyuan give up Juancheng?"
"Probably not, at least not yet, but he will order the Sakai detachment to divide forces to support Puyang, so I want a force to intersperse raids and occupy the Dongkou ferry."
"Master, it seems that this mission is none other than the secret service group!"
"We can do it with the Yaksha camp too!"
"The number of your Yaksha battalion is too small, and a squadron of elite Japanese infantry is stationed in Dongkou, once it is attacked, the Japanese army in Juancheng can return to help within half an hour."
"The Japanese army, which is only a squadron, is completely our opponent."
"Okay, Commander Yang, Battalion Commander Jiang, you two don't have to fight, look at the meaning of the master's seat." Xie Jiyuan stood up and said.
"The Yaksha camp stays, and this time the mission is handed over to the special service group." Leng Feng weighed it, it was appropriate to hand it over to the special service group, after all, the Yaksha battalion was insufficient, and it also had to undertake the security work of the division headquarters.
"Commander Yang, the Japanese army is closer than us, so your speed must be fast, whether you can get ahead of the Japanese army, it doesn't matter, the key is whether you can take Dongkou and hold Dongkou, understand?"
"Understand, please rest assured, Yang Rui will definitely live up to his trust!"
"Go ahead, before dark, and hope to hear good news from you."
Kaifeng, the headquarters of the First Corps in eastern Henan.
"Chief Xue, Leng Guoguang has made a move, you can see, he didn't move Juancheng first, but now there are huge waves on the north bank of the Yellow River."
"Oh, it looks like he wants to cut off the soil and fertilizer once and for all."
"Tu Fei Yuan wanted to take advantage of his Luxi emptiness to come ruthlessly, but the result was a failure, this Leng Guoguang is really holding a grudge, the Japanese army is also very empty in northern Henan, come to such a sudden, I'm afraid not only Tu Fei Yuan Kenji is uncomfortable, but the Japanese army in North China will be in pain." Wu Xiqi laughed.
"Hmm." Xue Boling showed a smile on his face, he didn't think about it, but in order to implement such a strategy, an elite force must go straight behind enemy lines.
Who can take on such a heavy responsibility is the key.
"Zhang Zhongling, it turned out to be him, Leng Guoguang is really vicious in employing people!" When he heard that the commander of this elite unit was Zhang Zhongling, Xue Boling couldn't help but sigh.
"Chief Xue, shouldn't we move?"
"Don't worry, tell the two generals, Song Yinguo and Yu Liangzhen, to strictly prevent the Japanese army from raiding." Xue Boling Road.
"Okay."
Neihuang, Qingfeng, Junxian......
Originally, there were not many Japanese garrisons in these counties, and most of them had a reinforced squadron of three or four hundred people, and most of them were just an ordinary infantry garrison squadron.
These garrison troops are equipped with this combat effectiveness is already inferior to that of field troops, and they are the opponents of the elite cavalry regiment of the 1st Honor Division?
Before the Honor 1st Division attacked the city, the command center of the Japanese army had been pulled out by the Yaksha group led by Wang Bin, and the Japanese army collapsed as soon as it rushed, and these county towns soon fell into the hands of GJ.
The white horse Xiao will suddenly appear on the north bank of the Yellow River, pass five levels and kill six generals, kill the little devil crying and shouting for his father, the corpse is scattered in the field, less than a day of effort, he recovered the four county towns in northern Henan, and the soldiers are under the city of Puyang.
