Chapter 21 The Change of the Battle Situation (Part 2)
The command of the enemy in Taierzhuang was set up in a temple. This temple was very famous in later generations, the Guandi Temple that appeared in the movie "The Great Victory of Taierzhuang".
This was originally the command center of the 31st Division. Since the establishment of the Taierzhuang Front Enemy Command, Commander Chi of the 31st Division has given up the most complete building in the entire Taierzhuang, so this place became the location of the Taierzhuang Front Enemy Command.
Originally, Xie Hong wanted to be humble, but after seeing the scene, he said nothing and accepted it with a smile. The reason was that this ancient temple was not only strong and wide (compared with the remaining buildings in Taierzhuang at this time.) The most important thing is that it is the safest place in the territory occupied by the Chinese army in Taierzhuang. (This Guandi Temple was built at a corner of the wall of Taierzhuang, a blind spot for the Japanese firepower.)
At this time, in the main hall in Guandi Temple where the statue of Mr. Guan was enshrined in the statue of Mr. Guan, Xie Hong, commander-in-chief of the Taierzhuang Front Command, and Cheng Jiaji, chief of staff, were sitting opposite the statue of a small Eight Immortals table.
Cheng Jiaji, who was sitting on the left, was repeatedly looking at the telegram from the Fifth War Zone that was sent to the Taierzhuang Front Command more than ten minutes ago.
"...The military police of the original battalion of the former enemy command of Taierzhuang and the first battalion of the Independent Regiment of the Xuzhou Security Command were classified as the Independent One Hundred Brigades..." Cheng Jiaji could still understand the intention of the War Zone Chief Office. Before the troops of the 16th Army and the 60th Army arrived, the situation in Taierzhuang still had to be maintained by the Independent One Hundred Brigades. The War Zone Commander Chief Office naturally had to supplement the Independent One Hundred Brigades. If the Independent One Hundred Brigades really lost their combat effectiveness, then the Japanese reinforcements came in the past few days, and Taierzhuang would not be able to lose them.
If Cheng Jiaji could still give a little bit of the intention of the war zone in this message, then the next paragraph would make Cheng Jiaji fall into the clouds and mist.
"...After the vanguard of the 16th Army arrived at Taierzhuang, the brigade temporarily returned to Cheng Jiaji's command camera to seek fighter jets..." Of course, there is another prerequisite for this order, that is, after the main force of the Sixty Army took over the position of Taierzhuang, the above order will take effect.
The other content of this telegram is nothing more than commendation of Cheng Jiaji's army's behavior of fighting last night and reprimanding his troops for the unauthorized attacks for the troops outside the village in the early morning of this official article, except for the superior department issuing another 10,000 oceans to inspire the morale of the troops, there is nothing interesting to Cheng Jiaji.
As for the good news of the 10th Cavalry Regiment, the war zone is reporting it. It is estimated that it will be after lunch if the war zone needs to respond to this war report.
After reading this telegram, Cheng Jiaji asked Xie Hong, who was sitting opposite him: "Mr. Xie, what does this camera mean? What is the boss of the War Zone Chief Command playing?"
Xie Hong replied leisurely: "Your brother will take care of this yourself. But in my opinion, it's just that you can let your camera penetrate the Japanese side and back. Anyway, didn't your brother have this plan already!"
Cheng Jiaji could accept this explanation, but now the Japanese army has added a brigade to the Taierzhuang direction. If the division of the puppet Manchukuo division is added, the Japanese base camp's combat force in the Taierzhuang direction will have an additional 16,700 troops. The risk of attacking at this time is not comparable to that earlier. Even if you add another brigade of troops to yourself, it would be very dangerous. It is not an exaggeration to say that there is a lot of danger.
Perhaps the War Zone Chief Office also knew that this was a very dangerous combat mission, so he did not give Cheng Jiaji a dead order, but just asked him to move the camera at that time. The knowledge of the four words "moving the camera" would be great.
Cheng Jiaji can never implement the large-scale deep interlude in the original plan, but just hit the target with a few short-distance attacks based on the powerful terrain of Taierzhuang. That would be impossible to say anything about Cheng Jiaji.
The question is whether Cheng Jiaji, who is full of spirit, will be a turtle head-hunting turtle? This question is not answered by others. Cheng Jiaji himself can be sure that he will lead the team to attack. Otherwise, Cheng Jiaji will not be Cheng Jiaji. If he wants to kill the Japanese to serve the country, Cheng Jiaji's family background can be completely unavailable for the Japanese army to reach Nan'an County for at least six years. If he is his happy yamen, why should he go to the bloody battlefield of Taierzhuang to survive and die? Moreover, the current situation in Taierzhuang is not very optimistic, otherwise it would be difficult to open up the situation. If the Japanese army is allowed to arrange it calmly, it is hard to say the outcome of this battle. If there is something unexpected about this battle, this is something Cheng Jiaji would never want to see, and he would have to fight for it even for Cheng Jiaji.
After figuring this out, it is self-evident what the people in the War Zone Chief's Office made. Cheng Jiaji thought that his attacking column was regarded as a pawn to test how much strength the Japanese army in front of Taierzhuang still had. As long as he could reach the depths of the Japanese defense line, the War Zone Chief's Office would make up his mind to dispatch the final reserve teams of the Sixty and the Twenty Sixteenth Army to counterattack the Taierzhuang head-on. On the contrary, if he was defeated, the next focus of the battle of the War Zone Chief's plot was not to ask whether he would stick to Taierzhuang to wait for any breakthrough progress in the Twenty Legion.
"Brother Junchen, you don't have to go around any circles between you and me. I also bother you to go to the commander-in-chief of the Combat War Zone and Xu Shen. This is a job of disrupting the Japanese army's position in depth. I, Cheng Jiaji, took over. But I have several conditions to ask the superiors to accept it."
Since he has decided to take on this very dangerous job, Cheng Jiaji feels that he has no need to circle with the top peaks anymore, so it is better to go straight. Of course, he is doing a life-long task. This benefit must not be missed no matter what, and the conditions must be improved.
"Brother Haoran, what can I do? Brother can make the decision for you. If I, the Sesame Official, cannot make the decision, I will ask Xu Chan immediately." Seeing that Cheng Jiaji made the words clear, Xie Hong was overjoyed and was busy taking over the burden, for fear that Cheng Jiaji would change his mind. He had one more thought than Cheng Jiaji. Originally, the chief officer of the war zone could directly order Cheng Jiaji to carry out this task, but since the independent 100 brigades had more than 60% of the casualties had been killed or killed. If Cheng's headquarters forced to fight this charge, it would seem that the chief officer of the war zone was a bit unkind. This is second, the most important thing is that the 16th army will be launched soon. If Xia Weimin had any ideas and affected the next step of the battle, it would be more than worth the loss. So when Cheng Jiaji took the initiative to invite Ying, how could Xie Hong not be overjoyed?
"Brother Junchen, I have three conditions. First, our army fought with the Japanese army in succession yesterday morning and suffered too many casualties. I asked the war zone to transfer another full battalion to our headquarters." Cheng Jiaji could have asked for one or two more battalions, but he was afraid that there would be too many foreign troops. At that time, his command would not work, which would be a big deal. Only another battalion would be released.
"It's okay, I can agree." Xie Hong agreed readily.
"Second, our department has insufficient ammunition and its weapons are not satisfactory, especially if there is no heavy weapon. Can the chief department transfer a batch of weapons and ammunition?"
"This is not a big problem, Xu Shenzuo said, "Everything in the armory in the war zone is there, Brother Haoran, just keep it apart."
Call." Xie Hong's words were not as good as the previous sentence. He called one by one. After using it, the war zone would not say a word. He did not mean to be serious about Xie Hong. He had already made up his mind to borrow Jingzhou, and he would show his magical powers by then.
"Third Article: Our army is tired after a long battle and the system is in chaos. I want to go on a rest for a day or two, so I ask the district chief to arrange it." Cheng Jiaji knew that these three conditions were the most excessive. What is the situation in Taierzhuang at the moment? The casualties of the Second Army were much greater than those of the Independent One Hundred Brigade, and they did not get the opportunity to rest. But Cheng Jiaji had no choice but to do so. Without one or two days, he could not finish the troops of the Independent One Hundred Brigade, so there was no guarantee of this battle.
"Brother Haoran, I'll ask for instructions on this Brother Rong." After Xie Hong said this, he hurried to the next room to call and ask for instructions.
