The 1st Guards Division headquarters is next to Wanzhou Airport.
At this time, most of the 1st Guards Division had already set off for the battlefield.
The bunker-like building of the division headquarters became the battle supervising headquarters of the Prince of Montenegro.
In the conference room, there is a large map hanging.
There is also a real-scale scaled-down sand table, mountains, rivers, plains and hills of the whole province of Haixi, giving a clear view of the overall landforms.
The busy people in the conference room were the military staff officers of the Military Committee under the Privy Council of Prince Montenegro.
Lu Ming paced in front of the sand table.
The Montenegrin Army launched attacks on the Hercynian and Japanese people from three directions.
In the direction of North Montenegro, the Second Infantry Division of the Montenegro Corps (the North Montenegro Infantry Division has 15,000 troops), three militia columns (5,000 troops) temporarily reorganized by militia organizations, and the Third Longbei Front Army (30,000 troops), are heading towards Xinri
He led the Japanese 12th Division (27,000 troops) to launch an attack.
In addition, there is the Black Sparrow unit that has been separated from the Secrecy Bureau and is now the second regiment of the Imperial Air Service Regiment, with about 2,000 special operations forces to cooperate.
On the battlefield of the New Sun Territory where we are located, our own troops have an advantage.
Because except for the Japanese 12th Division, the other puppet troops in the New Sun Territory have just formed an army, and their combat effectiveness should not be high.
But similarly, the Second Infantry Division of the Black Mountain Corps was established not long ago. It mainly incorporated the old Anshan troops. In addition, the militia and the Longbei Army, which also had not very good combat effectiveness, may not have an overwhelming advantage.
The second offensive direction of the Principality of Montenegro was from Shengjing. The First Mechanic Division of the Montenegro Corps, with the cooperation of the First Longbei Front Army, broke through the southwest Haixi defense line from Shengjing.
It was absolutely devastating. The battle report had already arrived. The Minjiang Garrison Brigade of Haixi Minjiang Road Brigade Commander Liu Kui, who was close to Shengjing, suffered a devastating blow.
Liu Kui has also been captured.
Lu Ming became angry when he thought of him. The Special Work Department of the Secrecy Bureau once gave him 100,000 yuan, but he had not yet benefited from him.
A representative figure of the old bureaucracy who eats people without spitting out their bones and refuses to get things done.
It's good that this guy is not dead, otherwise it will make people even more angry.
The third direction of attack of the Principality of Montenegro is to attack the southern border of Haixi from Wanzhou Road.
This is the main direction of attack of the Principality of Montenegro.
The 1st Guards Division, the 1st Infantry Division, the 3rd Infantry Division (Zhenjiang Infantry Division) and the Black Mountain Fort Mountain Brigade, with a total strength of approximately 55,000, were all in force for the Principality of Montenegro.
On the Haixi side, the population of 50 to 60 million people supports more than 300,000 troops.
Of course, the main force of Liu Bangchang's direct lineage was only a few hundred thousand, and the rest were miscellaneous troops and local armed forces.
In addition to the Japanese 15th Division, which is the Oyuedao Division.
What Lu Ming is most concerned about is the war on the northern front, or in the eyes of Liu Bangchang's Haixi Group, the war on the southern front.
On the sand table, several red flags from south to north are facing the area marked "Jianzhou" in a closed posture.
The Jianzhou area has railways passing through it from east to west, north and south, and is surrounded by high mountains. It is obvious that it is the hub of the southwestern Hainan area.
The small blue flags representing Liu Bangchang's regiment and the green flags representing the Japanese 15th Division were also piled up densely in the Jianzhou area.
Obviously, the Japanese and Liu Bangchang believed that their side had strong military strength and were prepared to engage in a decisive battle with their own side in Jianzhou.
In fact, not only Longbei Province declared war on Haixi Province one hour after the Principality of Montenegro declared war on Haixi Province.
Just a few days ago, the Northern Xinjiang Province also officially declared war on the Haixi Province.
But soon news came that the Ma Quanyou tribe in the grassland was in rebellion, and the Northern Xinjiang Province had to send its main force northward to prepare to put down the Ma Quanyou tribe first.
After all, Ma Quanyou's troops are too powerful to be defeated. Without the main force, not to mention suppressing the rebellion, the grassland overlord may invade the hinterland of northern Xinjiang from the south in a minute.
"Master!" A secret secretary in green military uniform with fair skin, beautiful appearance and long legs hurriedly came to Lu Ming's side. It was Qing'e Thirteen, and she sent a secret message.
Lu Ming frowned slightly as he looked at it.
It was top-secret information from the Military Intelligence Section. It said that Wang Qiande, Chief Envoy of Jiangnan Province, Hu Dingjin, Financial Secretary, and Wang Taishan, Commander of the Border Guard Division, had reached a secret agreement with the Japanese secret envoy. They were preparing to take advantage of the fact that the main force of the Black Mountain Corps was fighting in Jiangbei.
, attack Black Mountain Fort.
Being able to reach such an agreement with the Japanese secret envoy was obviously because Wang Qiande and other Jiangnan dignitaries believed that the Montenegro Principality would inevitably fail in this battle.
After all, there are still 300,000 elite and invincible Kansai troops in Japan.
No matter how you look at it, the Principality of Montenegro and the Kingdom of Japan are not on the same level. As long as the main force of the Kansai Army is committed to the northern battlefield, it will be easy to defeat the Principality of Montenegro and its coalition forces.
Japan is already recruiting a large number of ships.
Looking at the telegram, Lu Ming's eyes flashed with coldness.
Wang Qiande was very kind to himself at first, but of course, he was just using himself to fight against the Hu family, and in the end what he wanted to gain must be the political benefits that were most beneficial to him.
"In my name, send a message to the local border security forces to prepare for the battle, carry forward the spirit of fearlessness, prevent the enemy bandits from entering our territory, and resolutely beat back the enemy's arrogance!" He added: "The air service regiment dispatched a rapid combat team to support our weak points.
, tell Zheng Yibiao and Heitou to deal more with the enemy and try to hold on until the Japanese reinforcements and supplies are shipped across the sea in large quantities. This is beneficial to us. If we can't hold on until that time, our secret weapon can only be used in advance!"
"Yes!" Qing'e Shisan agreed crisply, turned around and hurried away.
…
When Lu Ming opened his eyes again, he was already at the former enemy headquarters in Sanming County, Northern Black Mountain.
When we came to the military situation room, the staff officers were also busy.
The same thing is that there is a huge sand table in the military intelligence room, which is a scaled-down sand table of New Sun Ling.
Although the war in the New Japan Territory paralyzed Japan's military command system from the beginning, artillery fire and infantry raids caused huge damage to the 1st Regiment of the 12th Division of Japan, and even captured the 1st Regiment's flag.
But the Japanese reacted quickly and organized a strong counterattack.
There are even airships to bombard your own positions.
Now we can only endure it.
The combat effectiveness of the Longbei Army was really worrying. The two main brigades, with nearly 10,000 people, were gnawing at the opponent's regiment of 3,000 people. Not only were they unable to capture the position with heavy losses, they were also defeated by the opponent's counterattack and retreated hundreds of miles.
Even the puppet army's defense line led by the New Sun fought back and forth with the Longbei Army.
I simply couldn't see it.
Therefore, the first phase of the raid did not achieve the real strategic purpose at all.
Moreover, in Xinri Territory, it was not just the Black Mountain Infantry Division and the Longbei Army that fought against the Japanese.
Even the Miao Baifeng regime, which was still lingering in the Anshan City area, joined in the fun and declared war on the New Sun Territory and Haixi Province, and even sent an expeditionary division, but the Anshan Division only had a strength of five to six thousand people.
But they were obviously here to stir up trouble. Before the expeditionary force reached the front line, scandals of internal strife spread.
Lu Ming walked around and looked at the various flags in the sand table, his mind was spinning, and various thoughts came out, pondering.
"Commander-in-Chief, you should take a nap, you should be fine now!" a general next to him reminded cautiously.
As soon as the war started, "Governor Zhang" was awarded the status of commander-in-chief of the Northern Montenegro Front Headquarters.
Lu Mingqi asked: "Do I look tired?"
From before the war started to now for more than a month, Lu Ming stayed awake twenty-four hours a day.
When you open your eyes, you will be the one who is taking an overview of the overall situation. When you open your eyes again, you will be Commander Zhang directing the war in Northern Montenegro.
Lu Ming didn't feel tired, but after a long time, he probably wouldn't be able to.
"No! Of course not!" The general on the side laughed and said: "You have always been in good spirits, but you have been eating and lodging at the headquarters. You must not have a good rest. Everyone is worried that you are exhausted."
Lu Ming nodded and said with a smile: "It's okay." His eyes were focused on the huge sand table again.
