Chapter 131: Take advantage of the situation!

"Will the enemy prepare? General!"

Hearing this, Kenjiro Ikeda thought for a while and hesitated.

"After breakfast tomorrow morning, we sent troops north, and the army was in a mighty way, and Xu Rui could easily detect our actions."

Taro Miyamoto said: "It is better to invite the enemy to fight at the Huting stronghold, which can also allow the enemy to relax the troops stationed in Wanjia Town and other places in the rear."

"At that time, our Imperial Army will concentrate the Type 96 land attack aircraft to raid and bomb Laolang Valley and other places, and cut off the enemy's way into the mountains, and will also achieve miraculous effects."

Kenjiro Ikeda thought about it and it might be effective.

However, the effect will not be very big.

However, Kenjiro Ikeda certainly would not deny Taro Miyamoto's idea, after all, this matter is nothing to us.

"Mr. General, I agree."

Kenjiro Ikeda nodded and said.

"Um!"

Seeing this, Taro Miyamoto said, "Let's just use a special Mingcode telegram to invite the battle tomorrow morning!"

"Yes, Your Excellency General."

Kenjiro Ikeda nodded, indicating that he remembered it.

Subsequently, Taro Miyamoto and Kenjiro Ikeda continued to discuss specific details of the action tomorrow morning.

Heyuan County, within the city, the 303rd Regiment of the Jinsui Army.

"There are some troops here, here, and here," he said.

Xu Rui pointed to the military map placed on the table in the command room of the regiment headquarters, and kept giving instructions to Chief of Staff Luo Youdu.

"Okay, I'll send someone to deploy some troops to garrison later."

Chief of Staff Luo Youdu responded.

"Reporting to the regiment, Chief of Staff, we intercepted the radios between the First Army Command and the Fourth Brigade. Because the Japanese replaced the new secret code, it took more than ten minutes to successfully decipher according to the regiment method. This is the deciphered telegram, the regiment, and the chief of staff."

Gu Jiaping, a communications staff officer who walked out of the communication room of the regiment headquarters, walked to Xu Rui and Luo Youdu with a deciphered telegram, stood attentively and saluted.

"Um!"

Xu Rui nodded, then took the telegram from Gu Jiaping, and then started reading.

“Huh?”

Seeing the contents on the deciphered telegram, Xu Rui was surprised, and the Chief of Staff Luo Youdu, who was standing beside him, suddenly felt strange.

"What's the situation? Group seat."

Luo Youdu asked.

"Chief of Staff, look."

Xu Rui handed the deciphered telegram to Chief of Staff Luo Youdu, and said in a narrow voice: "Taro Miyamoto asked Yoshinomiya Shinozuka to send fighter planes to support him."

"The Type 96 land attack aircraft is here, this fighter seems to be the Japanese shore-based bomber, right?"

Luo Youdu was not very familiar with the Japanese Type 96 land attack aircraft, so he paused for two seconds and asked Xu Rui.

"Yes, it's the Japanese shore-based bomber."

Xu Rui was a retired special forces soldier before traveling through time and was familiar with the bombers and fighters of the Japanese at this time, so he explained to Luo Youdu: "The Type 96 land attack aircraft, a shore-based bomber of the Japanese."

"The rise limit is 7500M, the range is 4000KM, the maximum speed is 350KM/H, and it can carry an 800kg aviation bomb."

"Of course, it can be replaced with two 400 kilogram aviation bombs. There are three 7.7mm spinning machine guns, and the weapons are not weak!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Youdu suddenly became serious and said in a voice: "According to the intercepted information, Yoshinomi Shinozuka mobilized the ten Type 96 land attack aircraft to cooperate with Taro Miyamoto's ground attack operation."

"And the main goal is not only to bomb the Huting stronghold, but also to bomb and strafuse my retreat team while moving into the mountain when we were unable to defend the Huting stronghold and Heyuan County."

After a pause, Luo Youdu said, "Miyamoto Taro really killed my group and quickly. He transferred the bomber, and Shinozuka Yoshinan was willing to send the bomber to deal with us."

"After all, we have killed an infantry corps of the Fourth Brigade and added an infantry brigade. Shinozuka Yoshinan doesn't want to support Taro Miyamoto's counterattack, so it's impossible."

Xu Rui thought this was not too strange, after all, he would have done this.

Luo Youdu thought about it, and that's true.

"Team, how do we deal with it?"

Luo Youdu asked in a deep voice.

"Send to Chen Zhenping and Liu Shuoming, the air-raid shelters and artillery holes excavated in the fortifications of Huting strongholds, Hanjia Town and Xujia Town should be enough to withstand the bombing of the Japanese 800 kilograms of heavy aviation bombs."

Xu Rui said: "According to the intercepted enemy information, Taro Miyamoto's counterattack time will go north after breakfast at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."

"There is still one day and one night to allow Chen Zhenping and Liu Shuoming to speed up the construction of air raid shelters and anti-aircraft shelters to resist 800 kilograms of aviation bombs."

Luo Youdu nodded with a serious look and said to the communications officer Gu Jiaping standing beside him: "Immediately send an order to the first battalion commander and the second battalion commander."

"This is an important matter for brothers to avoid the heavy Japanese aviation bombing."

Gu Jiaping also stood up seriously and said with a serious expression: "Yes, Chief of Staff."

He immediately turned around and returned to the communication room, and sent a message to the first battalion commander Chen Zhenping and the second battalion commander Liu Shuoming and others to convey Xu Rui's instructions.

"The storm is coming, and the war is coming."

After Xu Rui and Gu Jiaping walked away, he said to Chief of Staff Luo Youdu: "If we want to solve the counterattack of more than 7,000 Japanese troops commanded by the commander of the 4th Brigade Taro Miyamoto, an old Japanese devil, we cannot be passively beaten."

"So, I want to order Zhu Ming's new 15th Cavalry Battalion to immediately detour around the long road and kill to the near the Xiushui River Bridge. With the wolf-fanged special forces that set out four or five days ago, lurking in the dense forest near the north bank of the Xiushui River Bridge, raiding and capturing the Xiushui River Bridge, completely cutting off the retreat of the Japanese counterattack army under Taro Miyamoto."

When Luo Youdu heard this, he worried, "There is only one battalion and the Wolf-fang Special Forces. Is there no 100% sure whether the Xiushui River Bridge can be captured, the regiment seat."

"It's not OK to be sure. If we want to eat the Japanese counterattack army commanded by Taro Miyamoto in the next battle, the capture of the Xiushui River Bridge is far more important than sending surprise troops to capture the first-line sky at that time. Moreover, the first-line sky is too dangerous. The Japanese have deployed troops to defend the mountain passes on both sides of the first-line sky, so we cannot send troops to capture it."

Xu Rui shook his head and said, "That's why I decided to send the cavalry battalion to set off immediately, take a long way, walk the path, and touch the near the Xiushui River Bridge. He would not only take down the Japanese 105 howitzer position, but also seize the Xiushui River Bridge."

"This bridge is the key on the Xiushui River."

Seeing this, Luo Youdu knew that Xu Rui had made a decision.

What's more, once the Xiushui River Bridge is successfully captured, the Japanese counterattack army commanded by Taro Miyamoto, who was fighting with his main force north of the first line of the sky, will be cut off and become a turtle in a jar.

"Then do it like this, the group."

Luo Youdu agreed.

"good!!"

Xu Rui nodded, and then said to Chief of Staff Luo Youdu: "Immediately send Zhu Ming to command the cavalry battalion to hide out of the city, and then go to Sanlipu to move to Hutou Mountain, so that the possible Japanese in the city think that the cavalry battalion is returning to Heiyun Village."

"Then, let Zhu Ming take a long way from the other side of Hutou Mountain, take a small mountain path, and detour to the north bank of the Xiushui River Bridge. Send a message to Xu Dahu in a crypto way, asking him to lead the Wolf-fang special forces and pay attention to the cavalry battalion."

Luo Youdu nodded and said, "Okay, I will give you a special order next."

"Um!"

Xu Rui nodded, and then stared at the map.

Everything is ready, and the war will begin tomorrow.

With the 303rd Regiment of the Jinsui Army and Taro Miyamoto waiting for the final arrival of the 40th Infantry Regiment, both sides were ready to go to war tomorrow.

Time passed by little by little with the tense atmosphere before the war.

At 8 o'clock the next morning, Miyamoto Taro, who had finished breakfast, commanded more than 7,000 Japanese soldiers from the 40th Infantry Regiment and other units, leaving only more than 600 Japanese soldiers and some Imperial Army troops to continue to defend Jinghai County.

The remaining seven thousand Japanese soldiers marched northwards in a mighty manner.

At 11:07 in the morning, Taro Miyamoto commanded more than 7,000 Japanese soldiers and rushed to a place about 500 meters south of the Huting stronghold.

"Swish swish swish swish!!!"

The Japanese counterattack army had just arrived at the Huting stronghold less than a minute after the Japanese counterattack army, and four 105mm howitzers were roaring from the sky behind the Japanese counterattack army.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!"

The four 105 howitzers shells were like a defensive attack on the first battalion of the 303rd Regiment of the Jinsui Army in Huting stronghold. After landing, they rumbling and exploded, exploding in dazzling sparks.

"Is Taro Miyamoto a warning to us?"

Xu Rui, who was standing in front of a very hidden reinforced concrete bunker observation port at the Huting Base, couldn't help but complain when he saw this.
