Leng Feng still underestimated Kenji Tuhihara, this old devil actually played a game under Xue Boling's eyes and nose, and even an experienced commander like Xue Boling was deceived by him. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

While storming Lanfeng, the 14th Division of the Japanese Army quietly withdrew a mechanized assault team, bypassed the troops of Li Bohao of the 64th Army defending Pheasant Gang, and made a detour to the east, rushing for 150 miles, to join the Japanese army in Central China that occupied Guide.

At this time, the armored commando team led by Li Ye had just arrived at the edge of the battlefield and almost passed by this commando team.

The strength of the Japanese army increased greatly, and Kenji Dohihara opened a retreat road to Guide.

When Xue Boling heard the news, he angrily smashed the cup, which was the biggest fire he had ever sent when he came to eastern Henan as the commander of the First Corps.

The 8th Army's Huang Jie's loss of Guide had already caused a partial change in the situation of the war, and now it had also allowed Kenji Dohihara to get in touch with the Japanese army in Central China that occupied Guide.

The strength of the Japanese army in Germany increased greatly, and the plan to recapture it became difficult.

This monkey got into the belly of the Bull Demon King, didn't he turn him upside down?

"Li Bo is incompetent, he has an army, and the provisional 35th division attached to him, a total of three divisions, more than 20,000 people, can't stop a partial division of the Japanese army, what is he eating?"

Xue Boling was angry, in the final analysis, he commanded a patchwork of troops, although most of them were familiar generals, but he also learned about the situation of the troops below, and did not have time to understand it in depth.

The combat effectiveness of these troops is simply a scum!

How can such a force be expected to encircle and annihilate the Tufeiyuan Division?

This made him envious of Leng Feng, Leng Feng used all the troops of his own lineage, and when he used it, it was naturally handy, far easier than himself.

"Pass my order, change the use of the 20th Army Corps, and encircle the main force of Guide!" Xue Boling ordered, "Be sure to regain Germany within three days!" ”

"Yes!"

"Send a telegram to Huang Jie, give him a chance to make meritorious contributions, immediately organize the troops for me, fight back to Germany, if he can regain the return to Germany, his capital crime can be avoided!"

"Yes!"

"Do you find out what route the Japanese army took to return to Germany by raiding it?"

"The intelligence office of the 8th Army reported that they found traces left by the transit of Japanese tanks and cars in the eastern suburbs of Bozhou, and they had questioned the local people, and they all heard that it was raining heavily that night, and there was the sound of thunder, but they did not see lightning......"

"Whose defense area is Bozhou?"

"It is the defense area of the 48th Division of the 173rd Army."

"Katsura's troops?" Xue Boling was stunned, this is a little strange, the Gui Department undertook the task of blocking and covering the southern front in the Battle of Xuzhou this time, although it was not very brilliant, but it was very tragic, a station in Mengcheng, a deputy division commander was killed, and almost all of the main force regiment was killed.

At the same time, it inflicted heavy losses on the Japanese army, and after the Japanese occupied the city of Mongolia, it was almost no longer capable of launching a larger-scale offensive campaign.

It was also the battle on the southern front, the Japanese army in Central China was blocked to the death, and there was no ability to support the Japanese army in North China.

"What's going on with the 173rd Division, Chief Li must give me an explanation for this matter." Xue Boling gritted his teeth and said.

"Let's report this situation to Chief Li first." Wu Xiqi reminded.

"Hmm."

The problem has arisen, and now we can only find a way to solve it, and it is unrealistic to blame and complain about each other.

When Li Delin received Xue Boling's telegram, he was also very annoyed, and Guide was a good gateway to eastern Henan, but it was also a channel for the troops of the Fifth Theater to withdraw westward.

This is occupied by devils, this road is blocked, and the troops of the Fifth War Zone will have to detour from Luxi, how much time will this delay?

Liao Lei, the commander of the 48th Army, was scolded by him on the phone, how did he command, the Japanese army passed through their defense area, and he actually acted like no one?

Liao Lei couldn't wait to swallow the commander of the 173rd Division, but the 173rd Division suffered heavy losses in the Battle of Mengcheng, and also lost a senior general like a deputy division commander, and the morale of the army was severely defeated.

But if something like this happens, someone is responsible for it, so you can only be wronged.

"Judging from all the signs of the Japanese army, this raid on Guide was not a temporary idea, but a careful plan, and the meticulous action and rapid action were by no means possible for ordinary generals to do."

"Up to now, we haven't even figured out the number of the Japanese army, and it seems that this time the 8th Army was not unjustly defeated." Guo Weiquan quickly entered the role, he was just in a hurry for the past two days, and the news lagged behind, in fact, he read the battle report every day and was very familiar with the situation.

"The Eighth Army has nearly 20,000 people, in addition to a brigade to support Cao County, there are at least 15,000 people, and the 45th Division is still the elite of the teaching regiment, according to reason, even if it encounters a surprise attack, it can hold out for a while, and it will not be defeated so quickly, right?"

"The 45th Division held out until dawn before retreating, and they received an order from Commander Huang Jie to retreat to the Tuocheng defensive line."

"Why did Huang Jie order a retreat, is there any explanation?" Xie Jiyuan asked, it stands to reason that it has been a day since the incident, and there should be an explanation.

"According to the news from the military commanders, Huang Jie's military headquarters was raided, all the equipment for external communication was destroyed, and Commander Huang himself was slightly injured."

"Huang Jie's military headquarters was attacked?"

"Is the information reliable?"

"It hasn't been confirmed yet, but if Huang Jie's military headquarters were attacked by surprise, in this case, it was possible that he would misjudge and issue wrong orders."

"Wait for the specific news of Yao Heizi's investigation, it's useless for us to guess here." Leng Feng waved his hand, "That's all for today's morning meeting, after breakfast, let's get ready to go." ”

"Yes!"

"Military seat, Chief Xue is in a hurry."

"What's the matter?"

"Kenji Dohihara sent a mechanized commando team to make a detour from Xiaohuangzhuang in the north of Minquan and arrived in Guide in the early hours of this morning to join up with the Japanese army in Central China that occupied Guide."

"What's going on, aren't the civil rights defenders noticing at all?"

"I don't know, the specific situation is still under investigation!"

"Damn!"

"Commander Luo's telegram."

"Our armored assault team almost arrived there last night, less than ten miles from the Zhuangzi where the Japanese army crossed." Xue Ping took a telegram and walked over.

"What a Kenji Dohihara, this has made you get into a loophole!" Leng Feng hated him, if he let go of this old devil this time, he would probably be difficult to catch him next time.

"Commander Xue has ordered Tang Keqin's 52nd Army and 110th Division to change the direction of their march and go straight to Guide, in addition, he also gave the 8th Army a chance to make meritorious contributions, and two armies and five divisions were packed to return to Germany."

"What about Lan Feng?"

"The 1st Army has reached Lanfeng, 71, 74, 64 and 32 and the 1st Army has a total of five corps, plus 195 and 106 divisions, a total of twelve divisions, plus the Fourth Cavalry Army, and one of the 200 divisions, surround the main force of the 14th Division of Kenji Tuhihara, and the time is initially ripe for the battle of Lanfeng."

"Well, the situation is still favorable to me, as long as there are no major problems on the southern front, even if the Japanese army occupies Guide, it will not be able to change the current situation of the war." Leng Feng nodded, "It's just that he caused us some trouble." ”

Indeed, the time was ripe for the Battle of Lanfeng, and the planned troops had basically arrived at the battlefield, and although the Japanese army had performed amazingly, they had not yet jumped out of the encirclement.

Now it is nothing more than a big pile of enemies, divided into two lumps, which should be regarded as three, and there is one more lump.

A small village near Yifeng, whose name is unverifiable, was located where Kenji Dohihara's headquarters was located, and after sending a commando to join forces with the Japanese army in Guide, Kenji Dohihara held a military meeting here.

After a brief briefing on the situation of the war, it was clear that the situation had changed dramatically, that the westward advance was not going well, and that there were more and more Chinese troops around.

Aerial reconnaissance, as well as intelligence from the rear, showed that the 14th Division was under siege.

After northern Henan fell to Leng Feng and his devilish troops, the rear road of the 14th Division was completely cut off, which was a devastating blow to Kenji Dohihara.

When the news of the capture of Xinxiang came, Kenji Dohihara almost felt that he was lifeless this time, who would have thought that the Japanese army in Central China would come to such a surprise attack and successfully occupy Guide, which was completely desperate.

"Advancing westward, even if we occupy Lanfeng and erect a pontoon bridge at the crossing of the Yellow River, we don't have any chance, northern Henan has been occupied by Leng Feng and his troops, even if we are lucky enough to be able to cross the Yellow River, it will be difficult to resist the strangulation of Leng Feng's troops."

"General, don't we have reinforcements?"

"There are reinforcements, but far water can't quench the thirst of the near, we now only have one way, to get closer to Guide and the Central China troops, so that we may be able to save and survive." Kenji Dochihara.

"But we fought for a long time and gave up like this, are we still considered imperial soldiers?"

"The most important thing for the Imperial soldiers is that everything is in the interests of the Empire, even if we are exhausted now, what benefit can we do to the Empire?"

"Hirata-kun, what do you think?"

The commander of the 2nd Brigade of the Field Heavy Artillery Brigade, Hirata Kenyoshi, said with a grim face: "I think the opinion of the commander of the Tuhihara Division is right, the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army is not very good, but their number is more than ours, and their resistance is unprecedentedly tenacious, in the past five days, according to my observation, the casualty ratio of the enemy and our soldiers is as high as 10:1, but their total strength is ten times that of ours, and there is a steady increase in soldiers, we continue to fight, and soon the ammunition will be gone, if my artillery has no ammunition, It is not possible to exert combat effectiveness at all. ”

"Quartermaster, how many days will our battle last if we maintain the current strength?"

"About three to four days."

"Three or four days, so little?"

"Division commander, we consume about 400 tons of combat materials (including food and fuel) every day, but we carry a total of less than 3,000 tons of combat materials, which were originally planned to be used for ten days, but now it is conservatively estimated to be about eight days." The quartermaster's forehead was covered with sweat.

"Yaga!"

"If we can get supplies quickly, we should be able to last longer."

"I ask that the rear give us airdrops of supplies, ammunition and medicines of at least five hundred tons."

"We have at least 5,000 tons of various strategic materials in our reserve warehouse in Xinxiang, if we can recapture them......" The staff officer who said this was glared at by Kenji Dohihara, and that gaze wanted to tear out his heart, which pot is really not opened.

"I order, after the units return, be ready to leave the battle at any time, the troops move closer in the direction of Guide, and the cavalry wing will send reconnaissance troops to determine a safe route."

"Hay!"

"Send a telegram to the commander of the Toshima Brigade, ordering him to look for an opportunity to break through, and I will send troops to meet him and join the main force and move closer to Guide."
