Chapter 274 A Town of Landmines!
"Invite the battle clearly, Xu Rui, the head of the 303rd Regiment of the enemy's Jinsui Army, may agree."

Takeshita Taro didn't think too much, but then said: "However, it is impossible for Xu Rui to have a decisive battle with our army in Mingjia Town.".

"Master, I'm just talking about it."

Major General Tada Hideki, chief of staff, smiled and said, "It would be fine if Xu Rui was a fool."

"Unfortunately, this person is not so dizzy."

Shaking his head, Takeshita Taro smiled and said.

"Yes, division commander."

Tada Hideki nodded, and then said: "Right now, all the troops of my 41st Division have been concentrated in Zhenting City, and the two Imperial Army units of the 2nd Brigade and the 16th Brigade have successfully joined forces.".

"More than 6000 imperial troops, this time using steamroller tactics, all the way from Mingjia Town to the north to attack the 303rd Regiment of the Jinsui Army, the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army and the New First Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. Division commander, our task a lot!"

Takeshita Taro said in a condensed voice: "These three enemy troops will use up to [-] troops at most.".

"However, according to the enemy situation briefing given to us by the headquarters, these three enemy forces must stay behind to guard the rear. Therefore, the maximum counter-attack defense force these three enemy forces can use is about 7000 to [-] people. In terms of military strength, we still have the advantage."

Tada Hideki said in a concentrated voice, "However, the defensive counterattacks of these three enemy troops should not be underestimated."

"Soga!"

Takeshita Taro nodded, and said with a serious expression: "After all, the previous alliance of the three enemy armies has eaten up more than 36 elite imperial soldiers from the elite 41th Division and [-]st Infantry Regiment of the Imperial Army!" .

"Division Commander, if that's the case, we'll wait until the morning of the fourth day when the army goes north to launch an attack. Can Xu Rui withstand our counterattack with so many troops this time!"

Tada Hideki condensed his voice.

"Um!!!"

Takeshita Taro nodded, it doesn't make sense to say more now.

After the war started, the two sides saw the truth.

At this time, in Jinghai County, in the city, in the regiment headquarters of the 303rd regiment of the Jinsui Army.

"Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat!!!"

Gu Jiaping, the communications staff officer of the 303 regiment, came out of the communications room of the regiment headquarters, walked up to Xu Rui, who was talking to chief of staff Luo Youdu, and then stood at attention to salute, and reported: "Regiment seat, intercepted the radio broadcast from the devil radio station in Zhenting City. Electric waves."

"After a preliminary judgment, it is the encrypted radio sent by the devil's new code. We can't decipher it quickly with the deciphering technology handed over by Tuan Zuo. This time, we need to trouble Tuan Zuo to do it again in person."

Hearing this, Xu Rui smiled at Chief of Staff Luo Youdu: "Chief of Staff, you come as soon as you wait for me to go.".

"Row!!!"

Luo Youdu smiled, the devil's encrypted radio that Xu Rui can personally decipher, once deciphered, it must be important enemy information.

Sure enough, Luo Youdu waited for about 35 minutes for Xu Rui to decipher it himself before seeing Xu Rui come out with a telegram.

By this time, it was already after nine o'clock in the evening.

"Tuanza, it took you a long time to decipher this time!"

Luo Youdu joked.

Seeing this, Xu Rui smiled and said: "It's really long, but the devils may know that we have mastered the situation of deciphering their encrypted radios before.".

"So this time we intercepted the devil's encrypted radio signal sent from Zhenting City. It was a radio wave signal sent with the latest code. Therefore, even I spent a lot of time in deciphering it."

After speaking, Xu Rui handed the deciphered telegram to Chief of Staff Luo Youdu, and then continued: "Chief of Staff, take a look!".

"Takeshita Taro will have to rest for three days. On the morning of the fourth day, he will send troops to the north to reach Mingjia Town and launch an attack!"

After reading the deciphered telegram, Luo Youdu said with a solemn expression: "Furthermore, in accordance with Yoshino Shinozuka's instructions, they used steamroller tactics to concentrate their forces and attack northward from Mingjia Town regardless.".

"It doesn't divide the troops and turn around! This is not the attack routine of the little devil!"

Seeing Luo Youdu read the deciphered telegram, Xu Rui smiled and said, "I guess I saw what happened to the 36th Division and the 41st Infantry Regiment!".

"Yoshinan Shinozuka, this is Taro Takeshita's fight!"

Luo Youdu condensed his voice and said: "But, this is not good for us!".

"Yes!"

Xu Rui also put away his smile, and then said with a serious expression: "There are more than 6000 devils, regardless of division and detour, then our 303 regiment will confront so many of them head-on on the line from Mingjia Town to Jinghai County. Devil."

"As for Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment, which guarded the front line of Jiangjunling strictly, they did not receive much pressure."

Luo Youdu said in a concentrated voice, "Then, we need the support from the Eighth Route Army on the right side."

"The Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army and the 28th Regiment have joined the battle. Only we know about this. It seems that after the start of the war, the independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army and the 28th Regiment will quickly launch a surprise attack on Datongcheng, an important town in northern Shanxi."

Xu Rui nodded and said, "At that time, the Great Tongcheng may need to be captured quickly by the friendly Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment and the 28th Regiment."

"Once it is captured, the Jinbei railway hub is captured by our friendly forces. Shinozuka Yoshinan will definitely order Takeshita Taro to divide his troops back to aid Datongcheng. Otherwise, we will wait for the two regiments of the friendly army who raided Datongcheng to go south along the railway line , The attack and the situation appeared.”

Seeing this, Luo Youdu said: "I think, let's pass the secret message of the enemy's information we have obtained to Commander Li Yunlong!".

"Regimental Commander Li Yunlong, please report this situation to the two military chiefs of the Independent Regiment and the 28th Regiment by secret telegram."

Xu Rui nodded, and then said to Gu Jiaping, the communication staff officer standing beside him: "According to the chief of staff's wishes, send a report to Li Yunlong, the new regiment commander of the friendly army.".

"Yes, group seat."

Gu Jiaping nodded and stood upright, then turned and returned to the communication room.

When Gong came in and walked away, Xu Rui said to Luo Youdu: "Chief of Staff, pass on my order, from now on, prepare for battle.".

"Three days later, the war will start! Order Chen Zhenping not to continue to build the fortifications in Mingjia Town, and let him bury all the modified mines in Mingjia Town."

Luo Youdu understood Xu Rui's meaning, and said with a smile: "Tuan Zuo, the people in Mingjia Town are actually running out when the devils occupy Mingjia Town.".

"There are only a few ordinary people in Mingjia Town, and we have already evacuated them to the north of the Nanliu River. In Mingjia Town, every room and every street has buried a large number of seized The devil shells modified the mines in the city."

After a pause, Luo Youdu continued to say to Xu Rui, "I just didn't expect you, Tuan Zuo, to plant modified landmines all over the town in Mingjia Town."

"The landmines under the ground of a town are detonated at the same time. When the time comes, the devils who enter Mingjia Town will be blown up to the sky!"

Xu Rui laughed loudly and said: "Now that I know that the old devil Takeshita Taro wants to follow Shinozuka Yoshinan's instructions and use steamroller tactics to attack us in a detour without dividing troops.".

"Then, Mingjia Town, this is the place they must pass through. Therefore, facing the more than 6000 devil soldiers coming to the south of Mingjia Town, even if the First Battalion builds a lot of fortifications in Mingjia Town, it will not be able to block them." I can't stand the attack of so many devils. Why don't you abandon Mingjia Town and deploy a large number of modified artillery shells and mines in Mingjia Town? An effective way to kill the enemy!"

Luo Youdu nodded, and said: "The group seat is really a good way."

"However, when the time comes, let Chen Zhenping command the first battalion and retreat after fighting for half an hour in Mingjia Town."

"Otherwise, if you easily abandon Mingjia Town and go north, Takeshita Taro will know that he is luring the enemy deep."

Xu Rui thought for a while and said, "You are right, Chief of Staff."
