"Come here!" the Japanese major general said calmly.
"Hi!"
"Send a report to the Kwantung Army headquarters. Our department intends to use the remaining soldiers as bait to lure some soldiers of the China Independent Division. At the same time, please send two regiments from the direction of Xuzhou to surround the Chinese people! And annihilate them!"
"Hi!"
So, Yoshimoto Teiichi, who was in the Kwantung Army, received such a telegram, a telegram wanting revenge.
He curled his lips, thinking it was still very interesting, but as long as the layout is good, it is indeed feasible.
"Come here, please pass on the order to find out how many troops the China Independent Division has near Suqian, and ask Mr. Yamada to hold his troops temporarily."
"Hi!"
Afterwards, Yoshimoto Teiichi once again approached Umezu Yoshijiro.
"Your Excellency, Commander, we have information."
"Oh?" Umezu Yoshijiro raised his head, "Yoshimoto-kun, what information?"
"The troops that fell into the trap of the Independent Division have successfully broken through and reached Suining." Yoshimoto Teiichi said, "At the same time, the temporary leader of these two troops, Yamada Fuki Kazuhiro, submitted a request to use their group of remnants as bait.
, eating up the Chinese troops in Suqian."
"Oh?" Umezu Yoshijiro narrowed his eyes, it was very interesting, "Knowing shame and then being brave, they are worthy of being soldiers of our Empire of Japan. What are their plans?"
"Hey, I am now ordering people to find out how many troops the Independent Division has dispatched and how many people there are in the Independent Division who want to annihilate their remnants. We will make a decision after the report comes back." Yoshimoto Sadashi smiled.
"Yoshi, it is indeed a safe approach." Umezu Yoshijiro nodded, "However, after this remnant army, Xuzhou's military strength should be running out, right?"
"Hey! However, the two wings can still come together."
"Two regiments? That's too few." Umezu Yoshijiro closed his eyes and thought about the troop strength on the defense map, "Are there any other places where we can deploy troops?"
"In other words, there are still about 20,000 people in this remnant army. They are not considered lightly or seriously injured. It's just that they lost a lot of heavy weapons and equipment when they retreated."
"Then use the lightly wounded as bait and the completely uninjured warriors as soldiers, and set up a defense line from Suining to Suqian, and surround the north with two regiments from the Xuzhou direction! Surround the south from the Suining direction, and join forces from the Huaibei and Suzhou directions.
Assemble two regiments and surround the west." Umezu Meijiro opened his eyes, "Can you do it?"
"Probably, it should be possible, but should we wait until the troop reconnaissance report comes back?" Yoshimoto Teiichi still planned to be a little more cautious. If the independent division has too many troops, they may not be able to absorb them.
"Well, wait a moment. I think the independent division can only dispatch 20,000 people at most. After all, we have 20,000 remaining soldiers. Now he has to go to Lianyungang and guard Suqian." Umezu Yoshijiro sighed slightly,
"Indeed, I fell into the independent division's plan. Otherwise, Lianyungang would not be lost."
"Hi!"
…
Lei Dingtian naturally didn't know that the Japanese were plotting against their trip.
"Traveler, the Japanese haven't come yet!"
"Wait a little longer!" Lei Dingtian said dullly. He had been waiting for almost an afternoon. Don't the Japanese plan to leave today? Then when will they have to wait? "Send people to explore again! As soon as the Japanese take action, we will immediately
Come and report!"
"yes!"
…
"The Japanese have captured the hotel, and the common people have been appeased." In Lianyungang, a soldier spoke to Tangshan.
Tangshan nodded, "Okay, let's count the battle losses and prepare to report to the headquarters."
"yes!"
"By the way, let me tell Brigadier Leng that we have captured Lianyungang!"
"yes!"
…
Zhou Weiguo, who received the news, smiled and said, "Let Tangshan leave one regiment in Lianyungang, and the rest will continue to listen to Leng Yan's orders."
"Okay." Liu Yuan nodded, "Is one group enough?"
"That's almost it. Lianyungang is close to the sea, and we still have a navy! The Japs should be fine. You know, in the coastal areas, the Japs don't have many troops, because they also have a navy." Zhou Weiguo explained, "It's Xuzhou.
, it’s not easy to get. Let’s see how Leng Yan handles it.”
"That's fine."
…
"Brigade, I have prepared three brigades to capture Lianyungang!" Lei Dingtian heard the voices of his men again, why are they still waiting here?
"Then you go prepare the third brigade!" Lei Dingtian was angry. Could he not be anxious? He was also anxious! But what's the use of being anxious? They still have to wait for the Japanese to enter the circle! "Send people to investigate again!
"
"yes!"
They have been waiting here for almost a day!
…
"Your Excellency, Commander, we have heard clearly that the troops who want to eat up the remaining soldiers are the Second Reserve Brigade of the China Independent Division. They were originally responsible for encircling the west position of Suqian, but most of them were escaped by the warriors!"
He looked at the telegram in his hand, spoke, and handed the telegram to Umezu Yoshijiro.
"Hey, one brigade of the Independent Division has about the same strength as one of our divisions! However, this is a reserve brigade, which is somewhat different from the standing brigade of the Independent Division. The strength of one brigade is enough if we can absorb it.
The independent division has been feeling distressed for a while." Umezu Meijiro nodded and narrowed his eyes, "According to the plan during the day, there are about 40,000 warriors who can start this plan?"
"Hi!"
"Yoshi, give the order, march all night, and be sure to arrive at the designated location before dawn tomorrow." Umezu Yoshijiro put down the telegram, "At the same time, all weapons and equipment are well prepared for me! I must succeed in this battle!"
"Hi!" Yoshimoto Jung nodded.
…
"Prince, the Japs won't come today, right?"
Lei Dingtian was irritable. It was already dark, so of course the Japs would not come. "The Japs should come tomorrow! They fled to Suining and it is normal for them to rest for a day! Don't worry, brothers!"
"yes!"
"Sergeant, I see, don't be anxious. No matter what, the Japanese can't escape. It's just a matter of time." This is what the head of the regiment of the Second Preparatory Brigade advised. Lei Dingtian, as his boss,
He is also very familiar with his boss, and sometimes he has a bad temper.
Lei Dingtian took a deep breath, then nodded, "Indeed, what you said makes sense, but we just have to wait for one more day! Let brothers have a good rest tonight!"
"yes!"
Looking at the starry night sky, Lei Dingtian also calmed down. He wanted to avenge himself, so he anxiously wanted to eat these devils. However, no matter how anxious he was, he was not a devil, and there was no way for the devils to attack now.
.So, he could only wait.
Just wait for the Japanese to break in, it's that simple.
…
Hai Duong, naval base.
"Recently, our navy has not made any big moves. Apart from causing trouble for the Japanese freighters, we have never encountered the Japanese navy!" Liu Zhihui played with the gun in his hand and said to Zhang Qian, "Old Zhang, what do you think?
