"So, Chief of Staff, what is your opinion on what Sun Chuanfang said?"
"I think this matter does not seem to depend on what General Sun Chuanfang thinks or hopes, but on whether Lu Yongxiang will defend Hangzhou. In terms of the situation, Lu Yongxiang still has two choices. The first is to defend Hangzhou, and the second is,
We can transfer to Shanghai. After all, in the eyes of Lu Yongxiang and He Fenglin, Shanghai's situation is very good. Shanghai has Jiading and Wusong in the north, and Jiaxing in the south to defend. It is a good place for stubborn resistance. Lu Yongxiang may not be tempted to come here."
"Yes, if Sun Chuanfang's troops attack more eagerly, Lu Yongxiang might transfer to Shanghai." Gao Hongyi said.
"It's not maybe, it's definitely! Lu Yongxiang will definitely go to Shanghai!" Han Baihang said firmly.
"Oh? Why are you so sure, Commander?" Han Baihang's confidence surprised Gao Hongyi and Shen Qing.
"Because someone from Han wants him to go to Shanghai!" Han Baihang stood up and walked to the map and said: "Zhejiang Province is all over the country. If Lu Yongxiang stays in Zhejiang, once he is defeated, he can move around. How can he be completely wiped out in a moment?
Defeated. In this situation, the top priority is to go north to support, and Jiangnan cannot delay it any longer!"
Compared with the war situation in Jiangnan, Zhang Zuolin in the Northeast worried Han Baihang day and night, and he didn't know what the situation was like in Shanhaiguan...
Qingpu, He Fenglin Residency
"What's wrong?" He Fenglin's brows furrowed more and more. Six hours had passed since he arrived in Qingpu. It was getting late, and an ominous premonition gradually grew in his heart.
"Coming back to the commander, there is nothing. There is no trace of Han Baihang on that road." The subordinate reported back.
"No? Shouldn't they have set off a long time ago? Why didn't they even see a shadow of them?" The chief of staff spoke and looked at He Fenglin.
"The Sixth Division..." He Fenglin seemed to have thought of the key, and he suddenly said: "Has the Sixth Division already taken over Anting's defense?"
"This..." the chief of staff thought for a while and said: "There is no news from the direction of Anting so far."
"No news!" He Fenglin's face turned pale as he said, "Didn't the Third Brigade receive a report from the Second Regiment?"
The chief of staff did not speak, but shook his head.
The uneasiness in his heart continued to grow like a shadow, making He Fenglin tremble with fear, and a bad thought lingered in him.
"Have you fallen into Han Baihang's plan again?" Han Baihang can be a strong general on the battlefield, fighting in battles, but he can also be a cloud-like figure who is unpredictable.
"Withdraw, withdraw troops quickly and return to Anting!" He Fenglin made the following judgment instantly based on his intuition gained from many years of experience on the battlefield.
"The Sixth Division has not reported any news so far, which proves that it is no longer trustworthy! If even the Sixth Division is no longer trustworthy...I am afraid that the news that Han Baihang was defeated today is false. Anting is in danger..." He Fenglin murmured
He said to himself, he could only say this to himself, but not to his subordinates, otherwise the morale of the army would be shaken, which would not be fun. Now we can only hope that Han Baihang can gain a favorable foothold in this war as much as possible.
At the general's order, the three armies set off. The Eighth Mixed Brigade of the Shanghai Army was the first to set off and return. The long team marched quickly, and many people in SD began to complain. What kind of order was given, what kind of battle was fought, and such a display was carried out.
A large battle formation was drawn all the way from Anting to Qingpu. After taking a shot, they were about to pull back again. Rumors began to spread among the officers and even among the rank-and-file soldiers at some point.
He Fenglin sat in the car and swayed from side to side on the bumpy road, his mind filled with all kinds of chaotic thoughts. Now, he only regretted that he was so obsessed with it when he was in Shanghai that he believed Han Baihang's lies and let him act so arrogantly.
He left under his own nose. If he had gotten rid of this guy in Shanghai, why would he be here today?
Now this battle situation is mysterious and unpredictable. When these tens of thousands of horses are in the hands of Han Baihang, they suddenly become terrifying. It seems that they have been fighting for half a life, and even the opponent does not know where they have gone. It is really
The first time I met. He Fenglin was thinking wildly in his mind.
He Fenglin turned his head to look at the sound of a cannon. The window glass of his car buzzed and vibrated. After stopping the car, He Fenglin opened the car door. After getting out of the car, he turned around and looked. He saw smoke and rumbling cannons in the northwest.
The roar was endless. "You are finally here!" At this time, He Fenglin wished he could fight Han Baihang immediately.
"Report, the flanks of the 19th Division were fiercely attacked by the enemy. There were about two brigades of enemy troops with light and heavy firepower. They occupied the high and low areas in advance, covered them with artillery fire, and continued to advance towards our army. They were obviously prepared. The commander of the 19th Division reported
, the third brigade is facing the enemy, and has already moved the first brigade and the first regiment of the second brigade to the left flank to block the enemy's rear route, striving to encircle them and annihilate them in one fell swoop."
He Fenglin nodded. The commander of the 19th Division's response and grasp of the current situation were very accurate and timely.
"Only two brigades?" He Fenglin sneered. Han Baihang had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, but now he only put two brigades into the battlefield. It was so shabby, and this feint attack was really clumsy.
"Electrify all the ministries and be on guard. The Soviet army may be able to launch a surprise attack from anywhere." He Fenglin had fought against Han Baihang several times. He was very familiar with Han Baihang's unconstrained command ability, but he had to guard against it.
"Bang!" The same violent sound of artillery fire sounded in the northeast. Looking at the land and vegetation that were blown away several feet, anyone with a little common sense knows that if you want to have such powerful artillery fire, you must have a caliber of 75MM or above.
Only the mountain artillery could do this. The firepower in the direction of the Eighth Division was so fierce that Han Baihang must have pressed his main force on that side.
"Han Baihang, Han Baihang, you are finally here!" After He Fenglin said this coldly, he immediately ordered: "Immediately order the second division to send a brigade to increase the number of eight divisions! This time, Han Baihang must stay in Qingpu!"
The sound was so loud that He Fenglin's orders were almost shouted.
"The firepower from the commander's place is too intense. I think we should take a quick evasion." The commander of the Second Division rushed over at some unknown time.
When He Fenglin saw that it was him, he flew into a rage and said, "You are no longer in command of the army, why are you here with me?"
Seeing that He Fenglin was really anxious, the commander of the Second Division quickly explained: "Commander, the Second Division shoulders the heavy responsibility of protecting the commander, how can it be transferred so easily!"
"There's no point in defending me!" He Fenglin shouted: "If Han Baihang escapes this time, I'll see if I don't pick off your head. Second Division Commander, listen to me! I want you to personally lead two brigades to support the Eighth Route Army.
Division, if you can't defeat Han Baihang's troops, you don't have to come back."
"Yes!" The second division commander took the military order bravely and turned to leave.
