Chapter 755
General Takeda, the commander of the 71st Brigade of the 108th Division, was organizing troops to accelerate the attack and block the troops on the outside of the Western Route Army defending Yongji, but he could not advance effectively. The troops were blocked on the flanks of the first line of defense and the second line of defense of the Western Route Army in Yongji.
Chief of Staff Ono was very worried about the current situation of the battle, and not only said: "Tada Jun, if you want to break through the defense line of the West Route Army of the Zhongzhao Shanxi Line as soon as possible, you can only ask the Yuncheng Land Aviation Flight Brigade to bomb the Chinese front-line troops again."
"I also really want to do this, but the 36th Flight Brigade of the Army Aviation is currently performing bombing missions frequently in the air. The Imperial Army is in a tight battle on the attack on the Shandong and the Middle Fronts of Zhongtiao, and needs air support from the Army Aviation Brigade. We cannot take care of the Western Front at any time. Our army can only rely on its own ground troops to strengthen the offensive and wait for the 20th Division to quickly reinforce.
Our army fought many positions with the Chinese Western Route Army on the Zhongtiao Shanxi Line. Now there is a shortage of weapons, equipment, food, medicine and important military supplies. Qinshui, which is an important material delivery base in the rear, is surrounded by the 54th Regiment of the Western Route Army. "
The commander of Takeda Brigade said and suddenly asked, "Ono-kun, the Oshima Squadron reinforces Qinshui, which Gaomoto defends, what is the current situation?"
"Report, Qinshui calls." At this moment, Lieutenant Tanaka, the combat staff member, walked into the front line command center with a telegram to report.
Chief of Staff Ono took the message and read it quickly. He handed the message to the commander of Takeda Brigade with both excited faces and said, "Tada Jun, Oshima Squadron and Gao Ben Squadron, who was guarding Qinshui, attacked the firepower inside and outside the area of the Gaoben Squadron, which was defending Qinshui, have eliminated the enemy attacking Qinshui."
"Yao, Qinshui is safe and sound. The two squadrons of Oshima and Gaoben have made great contributions. They ordered the squadron leader of Oshima and Gaoben to immediately transport weapons, equipment, food, medicine and important military supplies to the front line, and there must be no mistakes."
Su Xiaoman received a reply from the commander of the brigade of Takeda Bingyiji, the 71st Brigade, and immediately quickly deciphered with Han Nina and handed the deciphered message to Lei Yunfeng.
When Lei Yunfeng saw the re-energy of the commander of the Takeda Brigade, he not only said excitedly: "Commander Wei of the Western Route Army and the 108th Japanese Division fought fiercely in Yongji for several days. Weapons, ammunition, food, medicine and important military supplies were never replenished in time. Now it's time."
"Boss, you received a telegram from the deciphered commander of Takeda Brigade to Oshima and Gaomoto. Why do you think of the Western Route Army? Do you have to make an article based on the content of the telegram? Tell me quickly, what are you going to do next?"
"Ms. Han, the commander of the front-line troops must not only be smart and brave to command operations, but also attach great importance to the intelligence collected and obtained, especially the intelligence blockade of the next operation. It is not yet time to say it out, so you can hold it in first."
"How can you, how can you treat me like this? Don't you believe in my loyalty to you?"
"Conserving confidentiality not only requires consideration of whether a person is loyal, but also to attract the attention of the enemy in order not to leak the secrets. Before it is implemented, the intelligence that implements the top secret plan must not be leaked in advance. This is a taboo in intelligence work."
Lei Yunfeng said and immediately drafted a top-secret telegram, which Su Xiaoman sent out in person, and destroyed it immediately after using the draft telegram.
At this time, Commander Wei, who was standing in front of the combat sand table of the Western Route Army Command, frowned and kept striking troops on the sand table. Suddenly, Chief of Staff Xu Liming rushed in and shouted before he even entered the door.
"Commander, the 208th Regiment of the 46th Brigade on the Flank of the First Line of Defense of Yongji, urgently needed reinforcements. If reinforcements cannot be obtained in time, a Japanese squadron will soon be broken through to the position. Once the flank of the first line of defense is broken through by the enemy, the Japanese army will drive straight into and pounce directly on the second line of defense. What do you think?"
"Dawn, our army is now in a tight battle on the front line, and the troops at various positions are suffering a lot. There are no reserves that can send reinforcements now."
"Commander, now more than a dozen enemy cannons are carrying out the most violent artillery fire strikes at the Dongyuan position outside Yongji City almost at the same time, and sent nine bombers from Yuncheng to bomb. Now, our army's defense line from Yaowen, Zhongtiao Shanxi to Yonglezhuang on the bank of the Yellow River is full of artillery fire, and gunpowder is filled with smoke. If it cannot be done in time..."
At this time, the General Command of the West Route Army was located in Liuguan Village, halfway up the mountain at the westernmost end of Zhongtiao Mountain. The terrain was dangerously high. "The drums and horns at the foot of the mountain" and more importantly, it could overlook the entire Yongji front.
The command of the 46th Independent Brigade of the Western Route Army was commanded on the Dongyuan Front. Since he led his troops to cross the river to Yongji, Brigade Commander Kong has been standing on the Dongyuan front to block the attacking enemy.
At this time, the East Yuan defense line was tight, and the Japanese dispatched armored troops and launched the most fierce attack using heavy weapons such as cannons.
Dozens of bombers in the air roared and bombarded indiscriminately, tanks roared and opened the road in front, followed by Japanese ground forces launching a crazy attack on the Dongyuan front-line position under the cover of powerful firepower.
How could Commander Wei not know what Chief Xu Liming said? Without waiting for Chief Xu to continue speaking, he turned around and said in a tough voice: "Liming, order Deputy Commander Yang of the 102nd Regiment of the 17th Division to report to the 46th Brigade Department immediately."
Chief Xu looked at Commander Wei and shouted loudly: "Commander, you do this to make our Western Route Army lose all the old foundation. The 102nd Regiment is the most capable supplementary regiment for our Western Route Army. You are actually going to..."
"Dawn, the situation on the Dongyuan front that the 46th Brigade is now in danger. If the 102nd Regiment is not sent up, where do you ask me to draw reinforcements?"
"Brother, are you confused? We have another 54th regiment taken away by this bastard Lei Yunfeng and was tortured on the outside. Why don't we call the 54th regiment to reinforce immediately?"
"Why do you still think of Leiyun Peak like this? You don't know that Leiyun Peak led the 54th Regiment to restrain the 71st Brigade of the Japanese army that attacked the Dongyuan line, and at this time it had surrounded Qinshui, resulting in the military supplies of the Japanese front-line troops not being replenished in time.
Especially the Dadao Squadron attacking Dongyuan was suddenly transferred to reinforce Qinshui. This not only transferred the pressure from a main offensive squadron to our position, but also restrained the Japanese commander from caring about Qinshui at any time. This is Leiyun Peak's besiege of Wei to save Zhao.
If Lei Yunfeng did not dare to take the responsibility to lead the 54th regiment that was crippled and restrained the enemy from the outside, our situation might be worse. Don’t you think so?"
"Commander, do you believe that the telegram sent by Lei Yunfeng is authentic? The guards of Qinshui are a squadron and a fully-organized Huang Jiejun security regiment, as well as a pseudo-self-defense force with a total force of 700 to 800. With only more than 300 troops of the 54th Regiment that was crippled, can they surround Qinshui without being attacked?"
"Liming, this is true. I don't want to argue with you about the issue of Leiyun Peak, because you have too much prejudice against Leiyun Peak, just because he is the captain of the supervisory team sent by the military command of the capital and is a spy in the military bureau, so you have always disliked him. I hope you don't always look at the problem like this."
"Commander, we are in short supply now, and we must immediately transfer the 54th Regiment, which Lei Yunfeng took away, back. If this bastard is tortured, the 54th Regiment may eventually lose its troops and loses its company. Then we will be the Lengwa Brother, the Lengwa Brother, we brought out."
At this moment, Su Peng, director of the Telecommunications Department, walked in quickly to report: "Report to the commander, chief of staff, and Lei Yunfeng, the commander of the 54th Regiment, sent an encrypted emergency telegram."
