For Zhang Tianhai, he did not require the spy company to be as fierce as those special forces in later generations. He just wanted to train this company stronger and then put the spy company into battle at critical moments.

Due to the effective combat effectiveness of the Sichuan Army's 22nd Army on the front, the main force of the Japanese army's Jinpu Road was temporarily stopped in Zou County, Shandong, and the smoke of war did not yet cover the sky above Xuzhou.

Although the war has not yet arrived in Xuzhou, Li Zongren, the commander-in-chief of the Fifth War Zone, was not so optimistic. The Sichuan Army can hold on at present, but the pressure is definitely not small. Once the Sichuan Army troops are suffering heavy casualties and are unable to fight again, it will be troublesome.

In the Operations Hall of the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth War Zone.

"Chief of Staff Xu, how is Zhang Tianhai's regiment now?" Li Zongren, who was busy studying the combat plan, suddenly raised his head and asked Xu Zuyi.

"I went to inspect once before. They were conducting a training session for the entire regiment, which seemed to be very exciting and organized some main battalion confrontation training," Qi Zuyi said truthfully.

Li Zongren smiled and said, "This Zhang Yulin is such a lord who can't rest. I think this is better, so I transfer them to Lanling County. It is located in the northeast of Taierzhuang and very close to Linyi. Now, Deng Xihou's troops in the 22nd Army of the Sichuan Army are still standing in front of Zou County, and Deng Xihou's troops are here to support it. Pang Bingxun's Third Corps is also attacking Mengyin, which is very close to the front line."

"But, is it too close to this place? Zhang Yulin's regiment is the essence of our army. Position warfare and defense warfare are enough to hand over to the Sichuan Army and the Northwest Army. Moreover, they are just a small reinforcement regiment. There are only more than 3,200 soldiers in the entire regiment. For such a few people, as long as the Japanese army launches a fierce attack, they are afraid that they can't last for a day?" Xu Zuyi did not agree with this opinion very much.

Xu Zuyi was not only the chief of staff of the Fifth War Zone, but also served as the school director of the Wuhan Branch of the Central Military Academy. So he also knew how difficult it is to train these qualified officers, especially for units directly under the First Regiment of the Third War Zone. Deputy Battalion Commander and above are all students who graduated from the Central Military Academy. It is not easy to be able to achieve this level of troops.

If the deputy battalion commander in Zhiyi regiment is placed in the Northwest Army and the Sichuan Army, he must at least be a deputy regiment commander.

It is precisely because after the beginning of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the gap between various grassroots officers expanded, and a large number of qualified grassroots officers died on the battlefield, which has led to the phenomenon of the gap between officers of various elite troops increasing.

Therefore, Xu Zuyi did not agree with Li Zongren's approach. Such elite troops must fight battles at critical moments. If they were placed on the front line to fight positional wars now, wouldn't this be a waste?

Li Zongren shook his head and said, "Chief Xu, please listen to my analysis. Now that the Japanese army is not progressing well, we will definitely increase troops across the board in the future. The Japanese army in the southern part of the Jinpu Line (i.e., the Central and Central Japanese Army) have already headed north to Bengbu. There is no doubt that their strategic intention is to open up the Jinpu Line and occupy Xuzhou."

Before Xu Zuyi could speak, Li Zongren continued: "The next step in North China, the Japanese army will inevitably increase troops to Mengyin, Zouxian and Linyi areas. The location of Lanling is not a dangerous place. The only advantage is to get close to the front line. Once a fighter plane appears on the front line, it can be put into battle."

"Forget it, it's good to arrange this. After all, once the war is urgent on the front line, it's a good thing to have such a regiment, but my suggestion is still time to mobilize a unit with more troops and strong combat effectiveness to the vicinity of Linyi. Just their small strengthening regiment is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket." Xu Zuyi sighed.

Li Zongren nodded and said, "Well, but there is no hurry yet. Let's see how the situation is. The war in the southern section of the Jinpu Line is quite urgent now, so we should have some reserve teams in our hands. In addition, Zhang Zizhong came to me last time and wanted us to transfer his troops to the battle sequence of the Fifth War Zone. This time the southern section of the Jinpu Line is in a hurry. I am wondering if I should take the opportunity to bring their troops to our Fifth War Zone."

"You can try it. It's more difficult to get the Central Army now, but it should be OK to get the Northwest Army troops, not to mention that the southern section of the Jinpu Line is in urgent need. I believe the central government will not refuse." Xu Zuyi said.

"Well... Then let's make a decision like this for the time being!" Li Zongren nodded and said.

...

After two trips to the shop, this is an inconspicuous village, but it has become a repeated battle point between China and Japan. Look at the battle situation, which is as good as the Luodian battlefield in the Songhu battlefield.

Of course, it just looks like this, but it does not mean that its intensity is comparable to that of the Luodian battlefield.

The Luodian battlefield was carried out under the coverage of the joint artillery fire of the Japanese navy, army and air force, and the opponent was the old standing divisions of Fujita Jin's Third Division. These standing divisions were equipped with artillery gangs, and the Japanese naval aviation bomber formations were mainly visited, so their effects were naturally extraordinary.

The Sichuan Army of the 22nd Army was not as good as the Central Army's Adjusted Division on the Songhu battlefield, and the 106th Division of the Japanese Army was also not as good as the Third Division with Air Force bombers and artillery corps reinforced.

You should know that the 106th Division belongs to the B-class division, and is even newer than the 13th Division, which was established in Ogisu. After all, the 13th Division still had a team before the reconstruction. For example, the 106th Division, even the division commander candidates were temporarily arrested, which would definitely not be comparable.

In terms of artillery, the 106th Division only needs one artillery brigade to strengthen, and the cavalry brigade has not been fully formed. There is only one cavalry squadron, which will not be able to withstand much trouble...

So, a phenomenon occurred. During the day, the Japanese army fought to the death to attack Shixiadian. At night, brothers from Sichuan, holding rifles and carrying steel knives, recovered the village of Shixiadian and nearby positions. The battle situation was not very fierce.

"Oh my god, this turtle son really carries it. He takes that shell on his father's head every day. It's really unworthy of descendants. These stupid bags are really bad. Isn't it good to save some money for his wife and children? It's like your wife cuckolding you when you carry it." Yin Wei scolded with a strong Chengdu accent. Although his fingers were already red from the cold, this did not affect his interest in "greetings" the Japanese family opposite him.

The officers and soldiers stationed in this position were officers and soldiers of the 746th Regiment of the 32nd Brigade, the 125th Division of the 45th Army of the 22nd Group, and the order was personally issued by Brigade Commander Lu Jiqing.

Since the attack on the Japanese army's two-dian on the 16th, Yin Wei has been fighting until now. He is the commander of the 3rd battalion of the 746th Regiment. Because he failed to lead his troops to attack on the evening of the 16th, Yin Wei has been remembered for a serious mistake.

The climate on the position was cold and snow danced. In the vast white snow, there was also a whistle made of Japanese artillery shells.

"Swish~~Boom~!!!"

"Swish~~Boom~!!!"

One round of shells hit the frozen soil hard, and the fragments of the shells were picked up in all directions with the thrown frozen soil. If you are not careful, you will die. You can't help but treat it accidentally.
