Chapter 15 Leng Xin's Turnaround

At 7:23 am, the Japanese plane appeared over Wunan. The sharp roar during the dive bombing woke up the eldest son Chen, who had not rested until four in the morning. At this time, he had advanced to the Houyu line with Qiuying, only three kilometers away from the main force of the Gaoqiao Brigade Group.

After the first round of bombing, a reconnaissance plane was still hovering in the air.

As soon as Master Chen put on his coat and walked out of the thatched hut where the command center was located, he saw the reconnaissance plane making several intimidating dives over the sky, which attracted the guard platoon leader Chen Changshou to curse, "If you have eggs, lay them, if you don't have eggs, go away, show off your damn majesty!"

Three kilometers, not far or near to the sniper battlefield in the 2nd Guerrilla Zone of the Third War Zone of the ** Third War Zone. The rumbling sound of cannons can be heard clearly, but the gunshots cannot be heard at all. The northwest direction is filled with cold wind, and there is no smell of smoke.

"I'm getting up, why don't I sleep for a while?"

Xie Xiulan's pretty face was red from cold, and she was still carrying the pole of "touching her heart and liver", and she stepped on a pair of leather boots covered with mud and snow. She knew she had just returned from outside the village. Master Chen took the rifle and walked on his shoulders, covered her hands to his mouth, and complained with smirk: "If you don't stay in the house, why are you going out to run around early in the morning?"

The deep love was beyond words, Xie Xiulan felt sweet in her heart, and she stroked his unshaven chin, and said as if nothing had happened: "Abiao took advantage of the snow to send a group of guys, all hidden in the haystack behind the village, not far from the road, and I was not relieved that people came and went, so I went over and took a look."

There is no doubt that Liang Weihua was worried that his equipment would not be good, so he could not stop Takahashi's main force from returning to the support. Master Chen nodded slightly and pulled her into the thatched hut while whispering: "How many are there? What guys are they?"

"Six mortars, five hundred shells and nine major car grenades, only half of the grenades were left, and the other half was sent to Wenbin before the military police set up the checkpoint."

Since the "sweeping", there have been checkpoints on the road. Even Tang Zhuoran and Tang Binghui's police station and self-supported regiment have been dispatched. It is definitely not easy to send so many arms from their noses. Master Chen sighed inwardly and turned around and asked, "Changshou, is there any news over the Telecommunications Office?"

Chen Changshou and other Nanyang brothers were extremely agreeable to the two people in front of him. Looking at the embarrassed look of "Grandma Xie" who is not domineering in normal times, she couldn't help but grimace, and then replied in a low voice: "Director Xie is receiving the telegram. It should be nothing big, otherwise I would have woken you up."

"There are more than ten hours left, and it depends on whether the Leng surname can withstand it."

"It should be no problem," Xie Xiulan took over the conversation, "At least, there are nearly 10,000 people. Takahashi only has more than 2,000 people in total, so it's not that easy to defeat them in one fell swoop."

"I'm not worried about this, but about Pingyuan Brigade."

How Leng Xin deployed, he would not report to Master Chen, but Chen Cheng and Liang Yu, who were far away in Chongqing, would inform him truthfully. Thinking of Leng Xin's determination to burn her boats, Xie Xiulan couldn't help but blurt out: "Then you don't have to worry. The 63rd Division, the 67th Division and the Security Column have a total force of more than 18,000. Isn't it a piece of cake to deal with the Thousand-Level Japanese?"

"Changshou, what do you think?"

What Master Chen lacks most is not soldiers or weapons and equipment, but experienced officers. Looking at the entire brigade, Liang Weihua and Zhang Xiaoguo have experienced many battles, and even himself, most officers at all levels, are almost all laymen who have become monks halfway. Because of this, he deliberately cultivates and trains new people whenever he has the opportunity.

Chen Changshou pondered for a moment and suddenly said, "I think I understand what the brigade means. The key is not whether they can encircle and annihilate the Pingyuan Brigade, but time. If they can end the battle before 5 pm this afternoon and return to defense quickly, then Gaoqiao will become a cooked duck and cannot fly even if they want to; if it becomes a stalemate and is nailed to the front line of the village bridge by Pingyuan Brigade, then let alone whether Gaoqiao can encircle and annihilate the main force in the second guerrilla zone is in danger of being wiped out."

There are countless examples of a division being chased by a Japanese brigade, not to mention that the division-level units in the 2nd Guerrilla Zone are far from comparable to regular divisions in the rear.

Master Chen looked at the direction of Huihu and looked worried, "Pingyuan Brigade is a field brigade of the permanent division. Its combat effectiveness is much higher than that of the Murakami Brigade, and it also has air support. Leng Xin's miscellaneous army is OK to fight with the wind. Now that he has encountered a real hard bone, it is not impossible to be defeated in one fell swoop."

"Don't worry, we have several plans. Anyway, the main force of the Japanese is in the south. Even if they can't stand it, we can still retreat west or north."

"Although that's the case, if you really get to that point, you won't hate us, especially Chief Gu of the Third War Zone."

Xie Xiulan snorted coldly and said angrily: "That can only be blamed on their own lack of strength. What does it have to do with us?"

While speaking, Director Xie Wenshan Village, Director of Telecommunications, jumped out of the truck parked at the entrance of the village. Master Chen immediately came forward and asked anxiously: "Director Xie, is there any news on the Eagle?"

“Not yet.”

Xie Wenshan nodded slightly at Xie Xiulan's "elder" and continued to report: "The third uncle called. In order to ensure that the Cold Ministry will execute the orders without fail, the Military Commission's Military Discipline Inspection Team will be headed to the Third War Zone, led by Chairman General Jin Handing himself."

Chen Changshou was stunned and couldn't help asking: "Supervisor team?"

Xie Xiulan agreed and said, "I will cram for a while, and the daylily will be cold when they arrive in the third war zone."

"You can't say that," Xie Wenshan opened the telegram below and explained with a smile: "The Military Discipline Inspection Team is dedicated to investigating and prosecuting officers. Unless they are traitors, they can run away from monks and cannot run away from temples, and they should be deterred."

Master Chen was happy, "It seems that Principal Jiang doesn't have much confidence in him as a student?"

Xie Wenshan seemed to remember something and suddenly smiled: "Host, after you and me broke the window paper, I really paid attention to this person. As you said, the person in Chongqing is really not very good to him."

“How to say it?”

"In the 21st year of the Republic of China, the Chongqing 'Inspiration Society' in Nanjing convened all the people who were approved by him to attend the 'Fuxing Society' to hold a founding meeting. There were about 40 people including Kang Ze, He Zhonghan, Hu Zongnan, Luo Derong, Zhang Yuanliang, Ren Juewu, etc. When the meeting was about to begin, Leng Xin heard the news from somewhere and ran to attend. As soon as she entered the door, she was seen by the Chongqing person, so she ran down the rostrum, grabbed him, and pushed him and said, "This place has no, this place has no you," and just turned him away."

There is something else! Master Chen looked at the battlefield where cannons rumbling, murmured to himself: "Students have different fates, so he should fight this turnaround battle even more."

"I think so too," Xie Wenshan smiled and continued: "Staff General Wei called and all the guests arrived at the airport. In order to ensure that they are foolproof, they are temporarily detained in the confinement room. Six other aircraft are taking off and landing at the airport one after another. The Second Company of Linying was temporarily recruited by Ishikawa to transport fuel and ammunition to the flight squadron from the train station to the airport."

Before Master Chen could speak, Xie Xiulan asked in confusion: "Isn't it five? Why did it become six?"

"One reconnaissance aircraft, four light bombers, and one transport aircraft, specially sent to the ground crew."

"Steal the plane, they can think of it!"

Young Master Chen weighed the pros and said expressionlessly: "Call back to Officer Wei and ask him to act on the camera. Don't pick up sesame seeds and lose watermelons. It's more important to do your own business."

At the same time, the battle outside Huangli Town is in full swing.

Leng Xin's strategy was to resist step by step, and did not put all the capital in it. While the 47th Division and the 9th Security Brigade remnants were snatching the last line of defense in Dong'an, they broke the 52nd Division, which had suffered heavy casualties, and fought and retreated on the front line of Huangli in a company, and delayed the advance speed of Gaoqiao's main force as much as possible.

Under the leadership of the platoon leader, a platoon soldier began to lure the enemy to fight tenaciously and resolutely. After more than an hour after trying to attack a squadron on the flank, the platoon leader ordered the troops to retreat while fighting, and gradually led the Japanese to the minefield that had been buried last night.

The Japanese had strong firepower and strong combat quality, but they underestimated the Chinese team in front of them. They rushed forward and charged towards the village with a "wow" scream. The mines were stomped, and bodies bloomed in the air with constant explosions. As the black smoke spread around, more internal organs, arms and thighs.

Chief of Staff Lu Bochuan clearly saw an injured Japanese army in the telescope, pulling the plate machine with the remaining hands to his head. The platoon that was removed was also very casualties. The platoon leader died. After nearly two hours of fierce fighting, less than 30 people came back alive.

There was no time to make Lu Bochuan sad. Although the Japanese suffered heavy casualties, they had crossed the minefield and their fighting spirit had to be admired. The remaining Japanese troops still rushed forward in combat formations, and brothers began to continue to descend on the left wing positions.

"Captain Zhang, send a company to the side and cut off their retreat."

The Chief of Staff was determined, and the last company was left with the last company, Commander Zhang gritted his teeth, shouted "Brothers, follow me", and then jumped out of the trench full of snow and blood, and rushed over without hesitation.

The battle was going on very fiercely. One side wanted to bite and wait for reinforcements to arrive, and the other side wanted to hold the enemy back as soon as possible to buy time, and then find a suitable opportunity to withdraw from the battlefield.

After judging the situation, the Japanese army began to reduce the impact and its strength shrank into a group. Lu Bochuan realized that they were waiting for artillery support, and after a burst of artillery fire, it was a more violent charge, and there was no more troops under his command. Lu Bochuan was anxious and immediately ordered the troops to strengthen their firepower and let the subordinate mortars continue to shell the Japanese army, trying to disrupt the Japanese.
