"Report, the commander of the 14th Brigade has been eliminated, and the 71st Army and the 4th Independent Division are returning to defense!" Staff Report. When the commander of the 88th Division heard the news, he was very happy and hurriedly sent a message to personally meet Chen Mingren, commander of the 71st Army. In addition to congratulations, there was an important situation report on the Japanese army in Longling. Liu Hai was also very happy at this time, and finally breathed a sigh of relief to the 87th Division, which was heavily damaged by the Japanese army last time. Chen Mingren did not stop, and arrived at the periphery of Longling with the 71st Army and Liu Hai's independent 4th Division at the fastest speed, and met the commander of the 88th Division!

"Junzuo, the redeployment of the Japanese army in Longling has changed, due to the increase in the strength of the fourth brigade, the outer defense line of Longling has deepened a lot, and the firepower has also changed, although we are a feint, but also touched the enemy's firepower by the way, the enemy's firepower is now in addition to the fixed firepower points, many mobile firepower points have been added, these mobile firepower points are very threatening, it is impossible to destroy them in advance with artillery fire, only to send troops to attack, we tried to attack several positions of the Japanese army, but the result is little progress, The casualties were not small. In addition, the defense range of Longling is obviously larger, and our existing forces are afraid that it is not enough to attack it! "The commander of the 88th Division finished his words in one breath." If this is really the case, then we are afraid that our existing strength is not enough, so we can only ask for reinforcements! Chen Mingren said. Will the chairman agree? Bangs asked. Yes, without US aid, the veteran will not have a good day, and he can't wait to get rid of the nail of Longling! Chen Mingren said with confidence.

"Headmaster!" Chen Cheng stood next to Chiang Kai-shek and said, "Longling is a little tight, we lost a lot of people last time, and now Chen Mingren and Liu Hai still have the 88th Division, with a total of less than 30,000 combat personnel, I'm afraid it will affect the war!" They asked for reinforcements in one to three divisions! "I know this, what I want to know is, if one or three divisions are added, can we capture Longling?" Lao Jiang asked. "Well, I personally don't think it's a big problem, after all, Chen Mingren is a talent, and he does have two hits!" Chen Cheng said. "Since it is estimated that there is no big problem, then let him have no problem! Ordered all the Second Army, the 36th Division of the Fifth Army, and the Rong 1st Division of the Eighth Army to reinforce Longling, appointed Chen Mingren as the commander-in-chief, and deployed the forces of all armies to take Longling in one go, ending the counteroffensive campaign in western Yunnan and northern Burma! Also ask the allies for fire support! Chiang Kai-shek said. Be! Headmaster! ”

With the issuance of Lao Chiang's order, 26,000 men of the Second Army of the National Revolutionary Army, 5,000 men of the 36th Division of the Fifth Army, and 4,000 men of the 1st Division of the Eighth Army all rushed to reinforce Longling, which made the combat strength of the Longling Battle reach more than 50,000 people, not including the American Air Force and the reinforced artillery regiment. With such a large number of reinforcements, Chen Mingren was surprised and surprised, and began to formulate strategies and tactics overnight! After the failure of the last attack on Longling, the Japanese garrison was joined by the 4th Brigade, and the garrison force was greatly strengthened, and all the defenses were not only strengthened, but also the defense circle was increased a lot! After the last experience, the Japanese army did not continue to build strong fortifications, but built a large number of communication trenches on the basis of the original fortifications, and the defensive tactics also changed from mainly fortifications to mobile strikes. When the commander of the 88th Division made a feint, he found that the Japanese army could use these communication trenches to deploy the forces in the anti-artillery fortifications on the key points of each communication trench within a few minutes.

"Reporter! All units of the reinforcements have arrived at the designated place, Chen Junzuo is going to hold a combat meeting, please go quickly! Sima Hong said to Liu Hai. You have to be more accurate this time, the purpose of the Japanese maneuver tactics is to scrap our support artillery fire, and we can only cover after the attack, so accuracy has become the key! Do you understand? Liu Hai explained to his two artillery commanders. We understand, you go to the meeting, we know how to arrange it! Ghost Cannon said. Yes! Then you're looking into it, I'll go to the meeting first! Bangs said. What do you think? Have the commanders of all armies arrived? Liu Hai asked Sima Hong as he walked. They all arrived, but these troops were all the Central Army, especially Yu Shao, the commander of the 36th Division of the Fifth Army, and Wang Bo, the commander of the Honorary First Division, were very dissatisfied with Chen Mingren's appointment as commander-in-chief, and asked Huang Jie, commander of the Second Army, to serve as the commander-in-chief, and the atmosphere was not very friendly! Sima Hong said. That's good to say, call our Song battalion commander to press the platform! Bangs said, "Turn the corner, go to the communications battalion!" ”

"As far as I know, Commander Chen was a division commander a few months ago, and now he rashly commands so many people, I'm afraid he can't do it!" Yu Shao said. "That's it, I just commanded so many people when I became the commander, what if it doesn't work, we are all the elite of the national army, okay!" Wang Bo also said beside him. "I, Chen Mingren, am confident enough to lead everyone to conquer Longling, please rest assured!" Chen Mingren said, At this time, Liu Hai quietly brought Sima Hong and Song Ruyu in and found a place to sit down. "Why can't they get along with Commander Chen?" Liu Hai looked at the two division commanders and said one sentence at a time, and couldn't help but ask Song Ruyu. "They are all Chen Cheng's subordinates, Chen Cheng and Chen Mingren have a lot of trouble, Chen Mingren even said that if Chen Cheng does not die, the party and the state will die, so there is a reason why these two division commanders and Chen Junchang can't get along!" Song Ruyu said. "No wonder, it's been a while, and you're still talking about it here!" Bangs said. "Confidence? If your faith is not reliable, it will be your life! "Yu Shao continues to make trouble!" Yes, is it not good to let the brothers die because of your faith! Wang Bo also chimed in. How did these two men become teachers? Bangs asked. These two people are also considered to be fierce generals, and they are both beaten, but the factional relationship is serious! Sima Hong introduced. Hum! Ruyu, do you dare to falsely preach the holy decree? Bangs asked. False Decrees? What do you mean? Song Ruyu was a little puzzled. That's what you say! Liu Hai said to Song Ruyu.

"Smack!" Song Ruyu stood up and walked to the big table and slapped the table hard! "Generals, when have you been arguing here, the chairman's order is to appoint Commander Chen Mingren and Commander Chen as the commander-in-chief, you question Commander Chen, do you doubt the leader's decision?" Song Ruyu glared angrily! "Fuck! The monk plays with an umbrella, and there is lawlessness! What are you shouting here, your little battalion commander, whose subordinates are you, get out! Wang Bo was startled by the slapping of the table, but when he opened his eyes, he saw a small battalion commander where he slapped the table and stared at him, and stood up suddenly! Song Ruyu did smile, walked up to Wang Bo, and slapped Wang Bo in the face. "I'm Wang Bo didn't expect that this battalion commander would dare to hit himself, so he pulled out his pistol in anger! "Master Wang, no!" Liu Hai rushed up at this time and snatched Wang Bo's pistol. "This is the niece of the First Lady, supervising the army here!" Bangs said hurriedly. "Huh?" Wang Bo was taken aback. "Humph! Warrant! Song Ruyu took out a piece of paper from his pocket and looked at the generals around him! The Battle of Longling is an important battle in our counteroffensive in northern Burma and western Yunnan, and it is related to the safety of international transportation lines. No toleration! I hope that the generals of all departments will work together and unite sincerely to exterminate the Japanese invaders! Jiang Zhongzheng! "Song Ruyu is worthy of being the leader's family, and as soon as he said it, a decisive temperament leaked out, leaving everyone present stunned!" If anyone dares to defy the law, Miss Ben can execute it on her behalf! ”

"Since the leader is so determined, we will do what we are told!" Huang Jie, the commander of the Second Army, who had not spoken, stood up and said, "From now on, all military orders are from Commander Chen!" "Yes!" A group of generals hurriedly said. "Good!" Chen Mingren stood up and said, "Since the leader trusts him so much, then I, Chen Mingren, will never live up to the trust of the commission!" I now announce my battle plan: Commander Huang Jie of the Second Army! "Yes!" Huang Jie stood up and said. "Your troops will attack from the east and west, with the east conquering the Shochang, the dam, and the Wenbi Slope within a limited time, and the Guanglin Slope, the Old East Slope, the Wind Blowing Slope, and the Sanguan Slope in the west. The 36th Division and the 1st Division of Honor are responsible for the blocking operation in the south, the Japanese are attacked, and the rest are likely to flee to the south. Do you understand? "Chen Mingren looked at Yu Shao and Wang Bo!" Please rest assured that Commander Chen, since we have said that we will obey the orders of the commission, we will definitely not let go of a Japanese soldier, and the old men will come to see you! Wang Bo said with a fierce expression! "Good!" Chen Mingren nodded, he had heard of this Wang Bo and Yu Shao before, these two people were fierce men who rushed up with knives as soon as they fought, once they obeyed, they would never say anything! "In addition, for the smooth progress of the Battle of Longling, in addition to the support of fighter planes, the allies also sent two artillery regiments to join our attack ranks, Colonel Daoming's artillery regiment is attached to the Second Army, Colonel Slas's artillery regiment is assigned to the 36th Division and the Honor 1st Division, and the Fourth Independent Division is under the direct jurisdiction of Chen Mingren, the commander of the 71st Army, and the three armies will work together to capture Longling in one fell swoop and eliminate the 56th Division!" "Yes!" A group of generals shouted!

"Thank you Miss Song for the warrant, otherwise you wouldn't be able to settle this group today!" Chen Mingren said. "Commander Chen is polite, he is loyal to the party and the state, this warrant, in fact, there is no warrant, it was made up by our master!" Song Ruyu looked at the bangs and said. "Huh?" Chen Mingren suddenly screamed, and almost sat on the ground! Fake the warrant of the commission, and these two have the guts! "Anyway, thank you Miss Song!" Chen Mingren wiped his sweat! "Junza, you haven't said where our mission is?" Bangs asked. "Our mission is Mengling Slope and Yunlong Temple!" Chen Mingren said
