When Hu Hao was in a meeting, he said that he would lead a team to Shanhaiguan to repair fortifications, and he would hand it over to a few of them to do it.

"Second stunned, I'll go to Shanhaiguan, you can rest for two days first!" Deputy Commander Xu said to Hu Hao.

"Yes, second stunned, you still have to rest for two days, and when the devil wants to attack, you will go again!" Political Commissar Wang also persuaded Hu Hao,

They all know that Hu Hao loves to sleep, and they also want to take care of him, if Zhang Debiao was there before, he would find a place to sleep, but this time, the two stunned people all the way over and fought two tough battles, so they wanted Hu Hao to take a break.

"No need, the defense of Shanhaiguan is related to whether we can lock the devil in the northeast, which is very critical to our future development in Yan'an, so I'll go!" Hu Hao smiled and said to them.

"Yes, that's fine! Then don't worry about handing over a few of us here, Lao Wang, you and the second stunned son go over there, I'll be here with Lao Liu and Lao Niu! Deputy Commander Xu said to Hu Hao and Political Commissar Wang.

"Good!" Commissar Wang nodded.

"Report, Shandong Telegraph!" A communications soldier shouted as he arrived in the conference room.

"Bring it!" Hu Hao said to the soldier, and the soldier immediately gave the telegram to Hu Hao, and Hu Hao opened it and began to read it.

"Hmph, here we are!" Hu Hao sneered after reading it.

"What's wrong?" Political Commissar Wang looked at Hu Hao and asked.

"The devil has just started to launch an attack on our Shandong, with a total of 150,000 troops!" Hu Hao gave the telegram to Political Commissar Wang, and the few of them immediately read it.

"Second stunned, do you think 150,000 can break through our Shandong?" Deputy Commander Xu looked at it and asked.

"Break through the fart, Lao Tzu is not worried about their attack on land, I am worried about the sea!" As he spoke, Hu Hao picked up the cigarette on the table, lit it for himself, and then threw the cigarette on the table. A deep puff of smoke.

"At sea, you say that the devils may launch an attack on our coast?" Deputy Commander Xu frowned and immediately asked.

"Very likely, you said that if you were Okamura Ningci, we would have taken down Hebei and closed Shanhaiguan, did you say that you were stupid enough to let your soldiers go to Shandong? There must be a rear hand, and this rear hand cannot be the Kwantung Army, the Kwantung Army is on the surface, and it cannot play the role of a surprise attack, only along the coast. And the devil's ability in this area is also very strong! Hu Hao smoked a cigarette and said,

"Then according to what you mean, the devil will definitely come?" Deputy Chief of Staff Liu squinted his eyes and asked Hu Hao.

"Well, I don't dare to say 100% sure, but there are still eighty or ninety!" Hu Hao nodded.

"Then does Lao Zhang have any arrangements?" Deputy Commander Xu asked.

"Yes! There are about 70,000 people in 2 divisions hidden behind Qingdao and Yantai each, if the devil really comes, their 4 divisions will definitely be able to block it for a while, as long as it is blocked, it will be easy to fight! Hu Hao nodded and said.

"Yes. It's good to have it, since it's calculated, it's going to be arranged, and it's not another thing to say. But if you come, if you don't arrange it well, you will suffer a big loss! Deputy Commander Xu nodded and said.

"Alright, there's nothing else to do. Lao Wang, let's go, there are still many things to deal with over there. Today, the Kwantung Army in the Far East has 6 more divisions to be loaded and sent to Jinzhou, damn it, strive to finish the battle as soon as possible, and celebrate the New Year after the battle! Hu Hao stood up and scolded.

"Haha, okay, try to finish the fight early, and have a good year after the fight!" Deputy Commander Xu also stood up with a smile.

Although the devil is very powerful now, since he is here, it is one word, fight. There is no other choice, fight to the end!

Hu Hao also smiled, and then began to get in the car with Political Commissar Wang and go to Shanhaiguan.

In Shandong, the devils bombarded the permanent positions built by the independent army, not only the artillery units on the ground, but also the air force bombarded the positions on this side in turn. Zhang Debiao, Political Commissar Luo, and Chief of Staff Ye were in the underground headquarters watching the devils bombarding their defensive positions.

"Damn, don't want money, it's fried like this!" When Zhang Debiao saw that the bombing had not stopped for half an hour, he immediately scolded.

"Haha, you don't care if he blows it up or not, anyway, our people are underground, and if they want to waste ammunition, you can let him waste it. Here's one! Chief of Staff Ye threw the cigarette to Zhang Debiao's side, Zhang Debiao caught it, took the lighter and lit it.

"Damn, wait, if Lao Tzu doesn't clean them all up, I'm sorry for them bombing so much!" Zhang Debiao said after lighting a cigarette, and then continued to look outside.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, the bombardment of the devils stopped, and the devils in front of the position also began to attack, and the soldiers of the independent corps also got out of the underground fortifications and began to enter the ground position.

"Hit me hard, damn, you have ammunition, when Lao Tzu doesn't!" A regimental commander gave an order to his soldiers.

"Da Da Da! Bang bang bang, bang! Immediately afterwards, the entire position of the Independent Corps was filled with all kinds of gunshots, and the devils were also pushing the straggler line to the position of the Independent Corps while counterattacking.

"Baga, mortar ready, blast out those heavy firepower for me!" When the captain of a devil's wing saw that his attack on the white bull was suppressed by the fire of the independent army, he immediately greeted him. Immediately a lot of devils began to assume mortars and shoot at the Independence Army.

"Do you have artillery to do, Lao Tzu is more advanced than yours, come on, let me use a single rocket head to bombard those rocket artillery, and then bomb the place where those devils are gathered!" A brigade commander saw that the devils were bombing their positions with mortars and immediately shouted.

"Boom" "Boom! Then a lot of rockets flew out of the position of the independent corps, flying directly to the mortar position of the devils.

"Haha, dumbfounded, you fucking have to aim at it, Lao Tzu can hit it if he carries it!" A soldier carrying a bazooka smiled and scolded the devil proudly.

"Don't be complacent, don't you want to pretend!" The soldier in the back with the shell shouted at the soldier.

"Nonsense, just fired a shot, can you not pretend?" The soldier immediately grabbed the bazooka and began to load the shells.

"Yaga, heavy machine gun, heavy machine gun, let me suppress it, are all those heavy machine gunners dead?" When a division commander was watching the attack from behind,

Finding that his offensive line was suppressed, he lay down, and the heavy machine guns on his side did not have the firepower to suppress them at all, and the angry division commander scolded loudly. The devil's heavy machine gunners have special people to deal with them, and the main character of those sharpshooters is to ensure that the devil's heavy machine guns can't be fired.

On the battlefield in Shandong, the independent corps and the devils are fighting fiercely, and there are casualties on both sides, and the casualties on the devil's side can only be cleaned up after the battle.

On the side of the Independence Army, the field medics were shuttling back and forth in the trenches, bandaging the lightly wounded, and the seriously injured immediately beckoned the recruits to come and carry them away and carry them to the underground fortifications, and then there were doctors operating on them below.

Now the independent corps still has a lot of medicines, so as long as it doesn't hit the vital point, it can basically be saved.

The battle lasted from morning to night, and after the battle was over, Zhang Debiao and the others also rushed to various positions to check as soon as possible, and then went to visit the wounded.

I was busy until about 10 o'clock in the evening, and then I arrived at the headquarters to have a hot meal.

"The combat effectiveness of the devil still can't be underestimated, our casualties today are more than 30,000, although the sacrifice is not much, but it can be seen that the combat effectiveness of the devil, we are defending today, and there is an advantage in firepower, it is estimated that less than 30,000 devils have been killed!" Chief of Staff Ye took the battle damage that had just been counted and handed it to Zhang Debiao, Zhang Debiao put down his chopsticks and took them to look at them.

"Damn, more than 30,000!" Zhang Debiao scolded after reading it. Chief of Staff Ye was eating noodles and nodded.

"I went to the hospital to have a look, and most of the injured were recruits, and there were very few veterans! Recruits have little combat experience, and it is normal for this casualty to occur! Political Commissar Luo also said while eating noodles.

When Zhang Debiao heard what they said, he nodded. And then thinking about things,

"What do you think, think about it later, eat it quickly, it's going to be cold later, I'm going to freeze to death this day!" Political Commissar Luo saw that he was thinking about the problem, and immediately shouted.

"Well, Lao Luo, Lao Ye, discuss a matter with you!" When Zhang Debiao heard them, he picked up the bowl and took a bite of noodles and said.

"Tell me about it!" Political Commissar Luo said while eating.

"You see, now we have 500,000 recruits behind us who have completed basic training, and they are short of tactical training, I want to transfer some of them here, not to let them fight as the main force, but also to help as a supplementary force, let them see what the battlefield is, so that it will be good for a while of training, and in addition, if those recruits see blood on the battlefield, they are veterans and know how to fight!" Zhang Debiao spoke.

"I think it's okay, anyway, this line of defense, the devil will definitely not be able to break through for a while, we can train while fighting!" Chief of Staff Ye nodded and said.

"Well, you have to arrange a veteran to be responsible for bringing a new soldier, if you don't arrange it well, something will happen!" Political Commissar Luo said immediately.

"Well, okay, then arrange for the veteran to take it!" Zhang Debiao thought about it, and yes, the recruits are not very good at judging the form of the battlefield, and once there is panic, it will be troublesome.

"Then let's transfer it, transfer 10 divisions first!" Chief of Staff Ye also agreed.

On Hu Hao's side, Hu Hao has just come back from the fortifications in various sections, and he has commanded the soldiers to repair those fortifications all the way, and the Kwantung Army will be here in three or four days at most, and it is a point to repair it! (To be continued......)
