But soon, the Wolf Fang Brigade's search for loot was forced to stop.
Because just now, Leng Tiefeng asked Shi Xiaoqian to turn on the radio and prepare to report to the headquarters that they had returned safely. However, just as the radio was turned on, an emergency order was received from the headquarters, ordering their Langya Brigade to rush to Luodian.
Prepare to participate in a comprehensive siege against the remnants of the Japanese 20th Division.
It turned out that the encirclement and annihilation battle between the main force of the Songhu Army Division and the 79th Infantry Regiment did not go smoothly.
As mentioned before, there is not only the 79th Infantry Regiment stationed in Luodian, but also three other directly affiliated regiments of the 20th Division, as well as field hospitals and other institutions.
Therefore, although there are only more than 3,000 real infantry, there are more than 10,000 non-combatants. The non-combatants of the Japs are not non-combatants in the usual sense. These little Japs have also received formal training.
Yes, picking up the 38-year-old Gai is not necessarily much worse than the little devil in the infantry regiment.
Therefore, the siege of Luodian Town by the main force of the Songhu Military Division did not go smoothly.
That's why Xu Rui rushed to mobilize Leng Tiefeng's wolf fangs, striving to eliminate the enemy in the shortest possible time!
Because Xu Rui's battlefield sense is very keen and his battlefield insight is far better than ordinary people, he can see deeper and further than others.
In the eyes of Wang Husheng, Yang Rui and the battalion commanders, and even in the eyes of Leng Tiefeng, the current situation in the Songhu Military Division can be said to be very good. Although the 79th Japanese Infantry Regiment has not yet been wiped out, it has been
Being besieged by the main force of their Songhu Military Division in Luodian Town, it was only a matter of time before they were annihilated!
Once the 79th Infantry Regiment is annihilated, it means that the 20th Division has been completely annihilated!
At this time, it does not make much sense to transfer the 7th Division. This means that their Songhu Military Division has achieved a comprehensive victory in the second Songhu Battle. If the little devil is unwilling to accept defeat,
As a result, we could only urgently mobilize more troops from within the country to launch the Third Battle of Songhu.
Wang Husheng, Yang Rui and several battalion commanders all thought so, so the army was filled with joy.
Especially those battalion commanders who came from the National Army, the pride on their faces almost overflowed with pride!
Two years ago, the National Army deployed more than a hundred elite divisions, but they failed to win the first Battle of Songhu. But now, a mere regiment of their troops actually won the Second Battle of Songhu.
The bad breath that has lasted for almost two years has finally been vented to the fullest today. How can I describe the feeling as "refreshing"?
But Xu Rui saw hidden worries in the good situation. On the surface, it was indeed the time when the Songhu Military Division was at its peak. They had just wiped out three infantry regiments of the 20th Division in Jiangwan.
Langya had just destroyed the division headquarters of the 20th Division and the headquarters of the 12th Army, and Lieutenant General Guang had killed two of them!
Then, the main force of the Songhu Military Division surrounded Luodian with the power of victory, surrounded the remnants of the 20th Division, and launched a fierce siege. Although the progress was not very smooth, everyone
They were all confident in annihilating the remnants of the 20th Division, and no one was shaken.
However, this is only a superficial phenomenon!
Only Xu Rui knows that this is actually the time when the Songhu Military Division is most vulnerable!
This may seem difficult to understand at first, but if you analyze it carefully, you can find out the clues!
The biggest problem of the Songhu Military Division is the lack of troops!
Although Xu Rui tried every means to carry out various mobilizations, the number of National Army veterans who have returned so far is less than half of Xu Rui's original estimate, only more than 15,000!
In the previous battle with the 11th Regiment, about 5,000 casualties were suffered. Even if the lightly wounded among them returned to the team quickly, by the time the 20th Division landed at Lion Forest, the Songhu Military Division had only 10,000 taels of troops.
There are more than a thousand people. In terms of troop strength, it is not even half of the 20th Division!
Then, the fierce battles with the 20th Division during the day and night yesterday resulted in at least 3,000 casualties!
Moreover, it is impossible for these wounded soldiers to recover from their injuries so quickly. This means that the total strength of the Songhu Military Division is now more than 9,000! Except for the troops who must stay behind, Xu Rui has already mobilized all the troops
They all mobilized, and then they managed to surround Luodian, and then they managed to trap the remnants of the 20th Division.
However, this is actually not what Xu Rui is most worried about.
What Xu Rui is most worried about is that the troops in the Songhu Military Division have been fighting continuously and have not had any rest for a long time.
The nine thousand officers and soldiers who are fighting in Luodian at this moment have almost reached their limit in terms of energy and physical strength. At this time, because of the great victory, all the officers and soldiers are in an extremely excited state, so they don't feel anything yet. But if the battle goes wrong,
When the situation reaches a stalemate, fatigue will sweep over you like a tide. At that time, it will be dangerous!
If it really comes to that time and the remnants of the 20th Division take the opportunity to break out, that would still be a good thing!
What Xu Rui is even more worried about is that if Hideki Tojo is bold enough and the powerful generals issue orders to mobilize the 104th Division that has already moved to Suzhou and Kunshan, then their Songhu Army will really be killed.
The fate of the division! No matter how weak the combat effectiveness of the 104th Division is, it is still a division, a whole division!
Moreover, the Osaka Division cannot fight against the wind, but it is very good at fighting against the wind! Once the Osaka merchants of the 104th Division catch the opportunity and find an opportunity to take advantage of it, these Osaka merchants will definitely make full use of it.
Bitterness, and the spirit of not being afraid of tiredness and just doing the best in business drove them to a dead end!
Xu Rui has been running rampant for so long, and it would be funny if he was finally dealt with by the Osaka Division.
So, does Hideki Tojo have the courage? Xu Rui believes that Tojo still dares!
Tojo Hideki, an old devil with mediocre military abilities, can be called a waste, but he can still be regarded as a courageous waste!
Therefore, Xu Rui must not give the old Japanese Hideki Tojo a chance, so he must seize Luodian with lightning speed and annihilate the remnants of the 20th Division before all the officers and soldiers in the Songhu Military Division feel slack.
!So, Xu Rui thought of Leng Tiefeng’s wolf fangs. Only wolf fangs can bear the heavy responsibility of this sharp knife!
Although Xu Rui is very reluctant to let Langya participate in this kind of battle, because Langya is a strategic-level special force. It is really the biggest waste to participate in such a tactical scale of encirclement and annihilation. However, Xu Rui can't care about it at the moment.
So many. If this battle doesn't go well, the Songhu Military Division may cease to exist. What's the point of keeping the wolf teeth?
Therefore, Xu Rui sent a telegram to summon Lang Ya.
(Dividing line)
Meanwhile, in Tokyo.
Hideki Tojo came to the War Department's combat class early in the morning. Hideki Tojo was not in a good mood today. The Kwantung Army performed well in the Far East battlefield, but when he thought about it, he was under the command of his mortal enemy Kanji Ishihara.
After seeing the results achieved under this, his happiness was immediately reduced.
However, what gives Hideki Tojo some comfort is that the progress of the Songhu battlefield is relatively smooth.
Although the scale of the Songhu Battlefield is incomparable to that of the Far East Battle, its influence is not at all inferior to that of the Far East Battle. Especially in the eyes of His Majesty the Emperor, the weight of the Songhu Battlefield may be even greater than that of the Far East Battlefield. The reason is not the same.
It's not complicated, because the Chinese commander on the Songhu battlefield, Xu Rui, has become a demon in the eyes of His Majesty the Emperor.
But this is not surprising, because Xu Rui is really evil. Since the Sino-Japanese War broke out, a long list of Japanese generals have been lost to Xu Rui. With such a record,
It is indeed shocking to others, and it is not an exaggeration at all for His Majesty the Emperor to regard him as the mortal enemy of the empire.
Therefore, if the 20th Division can achieve an overwhelming victory on the Songhu battlefield, and even kill Xu Rui, it will definitely be able to show its face in front of His Majesty the Emperor! And judging from the current situation, the progress on the Songhu battlefield is relatively smooth.
, because as of last night, Xu Rui's main force had been besieged in Jiangwan.
Now that one night has passed, Tojo Hideki has reason to believe that there should be some progress in Jiangwan. Even if the three main regiments of the 20th Division cannot capture Jiangwan in one fell swoop, they can at least capture most of Jiangwan Town.
In this way, by today, under the bombardment of the large-caliber naval guns of the Navy's Fourth Fleet, Xu Rui's troops should have collapsed.
Therefore, when Tojo Hideki walked into the combat class, he was not in a good mood, but he was not in a bad mood either.
However, after walking into the combat class, Tojo found that the atmosphere in the combat class was a bit strange. The dozen or so combat staff in the classroom were all looking at him with strange eyes. Tojo's brows
He frowned slightly, then subconsciously looked down at his clothes, only to find that there was nothing wrong with them.
There is nothing wrong with the clothes, but there is a problem with the appearance? Tojo Hideki subconsciously reached out and touched his face, but he did not find any rice grains left on his face, so it is not a problem with the appearance! It seems that the problem does not lie with him.
On the next step, Tojo Hideki's expression immediately changed because he had already reacted.
"Did something happen on the Jiangwan battlefield?" Hideki Tojo grabbed a staff officer by the collar and asked sharply.
"Hai!" The staff officer had some difficulty in nodding because he was grabbed by his clothes, so he could only pause slightly, "Your Excellency, Deputy Chief, just five minutes ago, General Nakamura, the head of the Nakamura Agency, just arrived from Jiading County.
The urgent telegram was sent, the telegram said, the telegram said, the telegram said..."
The combat officer was hesitant and did not dare to say anything further.
"Baga!" Tojo Hideki immediately became angry, slapped the combat staff officer in the face, and shouted sternly, "What did Nakamura Jun's telegram say? Tell me quickly, tell me quickly!"
