Just as the Japanese stopped all the way, the divisions in the Fifth War Zone were able to breathe.

Li Zhongren ordered all departments to repair the fortifications while the Japanese stopped attacking. He also discussed with the command's officers why the Japanese suddenly stopped attacking.

Some believed that under the wise leadership of Li Zhong, the front-line combatants severely damaged the Japanese vanguard, while others believed that Li Zhongren's command was properly, which made the Japanese invincible, so the Japanese stopped attacking.

Although Li Zhongren was not repulsive of these flattery words, he knew very well that 80% of this matter had nothing to do with his command, but because of the Dragon Boat Festival.

After entering the enemy's hinterland, the Dragon Boat Festival broke into three cities in a row and directly damaged the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army.

News from the Military Commission said that the Fifth Division had been destroyed and the total strength of the entire division was less than 3,000.

That was a whole division, and it only took ten days to become the tragic phenomenon now.

When Li Zhongren received the information, he had the urge to cry with joy.

However, he speculated that the Supervisory Corps might have suffered a lot of losses.

Otherwise, why would the Supervisory Corps retreat quickly and enter Mount Tai?

Judging from the combat intensity of the Supervisory Corps, Li Zhongren felt that the Supervisory Corps was probably short of ammunition.

Of course, Li Zhongren's guess was right. It was already a great thing that the Supervisory Corps had been in the enemy's hinterland for so long and fought so many feet.

It’s just a pity that although the Japanese suffered heavy damage, their combat effectiveness still caused heavy losses to the front line.

Otherwise, Li Zhongren really wanted to organize a big counterattack.

Of course, Li Zhongren was just thinking about it, how easy is it to organize a large counterattack?

What's more, even if a large counterattack is organized, can we still fight to the foot of Mount Tai?

Now, it is at least more than 200 kilometers to reach the foot of Mount Tai from his front-line troops' defense zone. With his current military personnel, he cannot do this at all, and the loss of troops is too great, so even Xuzhou will not be able to save it.

But he couldn't ignore the Dragon Boat Festival, after all, the Dragon Boat Festival's identity was there.

So he sent a telegram to the chairman explaining what he knows now. He also speculated that the Dragon Boat Festival was because it lacked weapons and ammunition supplies, so he retreated to Mount Tai. However, the specific location was unknown.

The Chairman was not surprised to see Li Zhongren's telegram. Because he had known this news for a long time.

What he is worried about now is that the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army also entered Mount Tai. However, they should be in the eastern part of Mount Tai.

Therefore, the Chairman was a little worried that the Dragon Boat Festival might be redundant.

Thinking of this, the chairman ordered the guards and said: "Go and tell Secretary-General Yang and ask him to send a telegram to Dragon Boat Festival to find out what his current troops are doing, and see if there is any possibility of going south to break through?"

"yes!"

The guards took the order and immediately went to Secretary-General Yang's office.

Secretary-General Yang is sorting out reports from various war zones. He wants to sort out all these reports and then choose the most important one to report to the Chairman.

He also reported to the Chairman that the Dragon Boat Festival entered Mount Tai and the 115th Division also entered Mount Tai.

At this moment, the guards conveyed the Chairman's order to confirm the current situation of the Dragon Boat Festival Supervision Corps.

Secretary-General Yang knew what the Chairman was worried about, so he hurriedly sent a report to the Supervisory Corps.

At this time of Dragon Boat Festival, soldiers were organizing to repair houses in multiple villages, covering the surrounding six villages with Jiazhuang as the center, and everyone was stationed in the village.

The supervision corps needs rest, at least those injured need rest.

Moreover, some injured people are seriously injured and need surgical treatment urgently.

The Drug Supervision Corps also seized a lot of medicines in the battle with the Japanese before.

So there is no need to worry about medicines on Dragon Boat Festival. What he is worried about is that the Japanese will come sooner or later.

He was going to prepare for an ambush in Mount Tai. Entering Mount Tai would be his Dragon Boat Festival. At least in Mount Tai, the Dragon Boat Festival would not be afraid of the Japanese surrounding him.

What's more, Ma Ping'an just found him and told him good news, that is, the 115th Division is on Mount Tai. However, they are on the east side of the Mount Tai Mountain Range, at least more than 300 kilometers away from them.

However, this is still good news for Dragon Boat Festival. Because at least the Japanese could not surround him from the east.

So this Mount Tai is so good, it is the place where Dragon Boat Festival dreams of fighting guerrilla warfare.

However, at this moment, Secretary-General Yang's telegram sent to inquire about the casualties of the Dragon Boat Festival troops and the weapons and ammunition.

Of course, Dragon Boat Festival was so poor that it was a big casualty in the army, with weapons and ammunition scarce, and even transport vehicles were bombed. Moreover, the number of wounded people increased sharply, and the necessary medicines were lacking. I hope the Party and the country can help themselves.

“·············"

Secretary-General Yang, who received the call back, was speechless because he always thought that the Dragon Boat Festival was so familiar? It seemed that he could hear it often.

Of course, this is not important. What is important is that the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army is also in Mount Tai. This is the thing that the Chairman is most worried about, and it is also the thing that Old Yang is most worried about. Because there was a suspected pro-underground party in the Dragon Boat Festival before. At this time, he entered the same base behind enemy lines as the Eighth Route Army.

So Secretary-General Yang sent another telegram, hinting that the Dragon Boat Festival should not get too close to the underground party. This is Chairman Ni Lin. Even if it is your Dragon Boat Festival, if you are suspected of being a pro-underground party, you may be imprisoned in prison.

It is obvious that killing Dragon Boat Festival is impossible, but locking him up is certain.

And Secretary-General Yang instructed that if possible, he could ask the Chairman to order Li Zhong to launch a sudden attack on the Japanese army and create a gap in the Japanese defense line, and the Dragon Boat Festival supervision team could go south to meet with Li Zhongren.

Dragon Boat Festival was speechless when I looked at the telegram, because when has it been, are you still having internal conflicts?

Dragon Boat Festival ignored this and just called back that the Supervision Corps was resting, and there were insufficient weapons and ammunition, too many wounded people, and they could not break through, so they needed to wait for the opportunity.

And he tactfully warned Secretary-General Yang not to make unnecessary sacrifices, and if possible, the Supervisory Corps will break through on its own.

Of course, these are all delaying strategies. Grandma's, the Supervisory Corps is now less powerful than before. They broke through more than 200 kilometers and returned to the national unified area. What a joke?

If the Supervisory Corps wins completely, there is no need to even think about Dragon Boat Festival. He doesn't even take the Japanese Fifth Division seriously. Who else can stop the Japanese army on the northern front?

But at this time, his automatic weapons were almost completely stopped in succession of battles. Although they were equipped with more than half of the Japanese machine guns, their firepower was still not comparable to before.
Chapter completed!
