Bourne: Command and Conquer

Chapter 1496, anticlimactic

Jinling.

In fact, Shunroku Hata was also very happy.

But I dare not show it. To avoid being picked up by the base camp.

Zhang Yong is really slapped in the face at the speed of light!

With several consecutive slaps, Doihara, Nishio Juzo, and Teuchi Juichi were slapped.

Hata Shunroku looked solemn on the surface, but in fact, he was already happy inside. After expelling Chief of Staff Akira Muto, he began to study calligraphy.

In fact, his calligraphy is very average. Not as good as Yoshio Shinozuka. Not as good as Koyuki Kiyoshi.

Even, objectively speaking, Juichi Terauchi's calligraphy is better than his.

However, he is in a good mood today!

The Fourteenth Division is finished.

Almost all the heavy weapons were destroyed.

The key is that the heavy artillery wing is gone.

Without the cover of heavy artillery, how can we attack? Going up on the chariot is also a way to die!

Zhang Yong has heavy artillery in his hands!

The Sixth Division had suffered from heavy artillery before.

Because of the disastrous defeat of the Sixth Division, the base camp had been preparing to reprimand him.

Well now, the Fourteenth Division also suffered heavy losses. Do you want to reprimand Earl Juichi in the temple too?

He wouldn't even dare to give Sugiyama Yuan a hundred water tanks.

Unless Prince Hanyuan Palace Zairen comes forward. But the old prince was very naughty.

Zai Ren would not do anything to offend these big bosses. Emperor Hirohito would not allow members of the royal family to charge forward.

"Ring ring ring..."

"Ring ring ring..."

Suddenly the phone rang. It's an internal call.

Shunroku Hata slowly put down his brush. Pick up the phone.

The voice of King Jiuyan of Asaka Palace came from the other end of the phone. He came to say goodbye to Shunroku Hata.

The last time Jinling was bombed, King Jiuyan of Chaoxiang Palace was internally injured by the shock. He was sent to Shanghai for treatment. But the effect is not ideal. Prepare to return home.

"Your Highness..."

"I'm leaving. We'll see you in Nara."

"Your Highness..."

Shunroku Hata immediately felt the crisis.

Nara?

Return to China?

goodbye?

Very bad feeling.

If you want to continue asking, King Jiuyan of Asaka Palace has ended the call.

Shunroku Hata frowned.

A little unconvinced.

Baga!

It must be a secret operation by Juichi Terauchi.

When he suffered a failure, he shirked the responsibility and asked him, Shunroku Hata, to take responsibility.

I just followed normal operations and arranged for several divisions to take turns to rest. Is this also my responsibility?

Baga!

no.

I can't sit still and wait for death.

sit down.

meditation.

He must save himself.

We cannot wait foolishly for orders from the base camp.

The question is, who to turn to for help?

There seems to be only one candidate. That is Prince Yoshihito of Chichibu Palace.

That's right. That's him. He is Juichi Terauchi's potential biggest rival. He was also the one who was hurt the most by Juichi Temple.

The person responsible for suppressing the previous February 26th Mutiny was Juichi Terauchi.

Shunroku Hata also knows some of the secrets of high-level officials.

If you want to protect yourself, you have to do this.

At the moment, only Juichi Terauchi's rival can help him, Shunroku Hata.

"Somebody come!"

"Your Mightiness."

"Invite Fukushima-kun."

"yes."

…

Beiping.

"time!"

"We need time!"

"Let's pretend to be negotiating with someone from Jiang! Implement a delaying strategy!"

Terauchi Shouichi roared angrily.

…

Jining.

Zhang Yong took a nap under the apple tree.

Very rare leisure time. The troops and horses are ruthless. Steal half a day's leisure.

There was no fighting on the northern front for the time being.

The Japanese invaders, who suffered heavy losses, did not continue the attack.

Jining, Yanzhou, and Zoucheng are all very quiet. But the fighting on the southern front was very fierce.

Lao Jiang arrived in Xuzhou. Take personal command. Xiao Zhuge arrived at the front line of Taierzhuang.

Tang Enbo, Guan Linzheng, Pang Bingxun, Zhang Zizhong, Sun Zhen, Li Tianxia...

The national army concentrated 200,000 people to besiege the two divisions of the Japanese invaders.

From Teng County to Taierzhuang, fighting continued.

At the same time, in the south of Xuzhou, the national army also concentrated more than 200,000 people to deal with the Japanese invaders moving north.

The map of the Air Force Command shows that heavy troops are gathered around Xuzhou.

Including the national troops in Jining, Yanzhou, and Zoucheng, there are indeed 600,000 to 700,000 people.

"Commissioner."

"Commander-in-Chief."

Zhang Yong did not stand up. Continue to lie down.

His mission has been basically completed. All that's left is to enjoy peace.

There are so many troops concentrated in the south. If the Japanese invaders cannot defeat the two divisions in a row, Xiao Zhuge may not be able to lose face.

Zhang Yong still has a sense of boundaries.

It's your own territory and you have full control over it.

But don't interfere in other people's affairs.

Unless you receive orders from Chiang Kai-shek.

"The war in the south is not going well..." Yu Xuezhong hesitated.

"You want to go south to join the war again?" Zhang Yong smiled after hearing Ge's elegance, "As long as the headquarters agrees, I have no objection."

"Alas." Yu Xuezhong moved a small bench himself and sat next to Zhang Yong.

He did want to go south and join the war. Take part in the siege.

At least we can get some fighting done.

It’s not like sitting on the sidelines in Jining now. It feels boring.

The Japanese invaders in the north were all defeated by Zhang Yong alone. They didn't dare to continue the attack at all. Calm and calm.

It is estimated that within a week, or even ten days, Japanese reinforcements will not arrive. Therefore, there is no danger in the short term on the Yanzhou front line.

If the offensive from the south is effective, one week will be enough to wipe out two Japanese divisions.

In other words, there are not many shops after passing through this village.

If you don’t go now, I’m afraid you won’t have the chance in the future.

The day passed quietly.

night. Still quiet.

the next day.

Yu Xuezhong is here again.

Also arriving at the same time was Modhong.

Zhang Yong smiled and said, "Commander Mo, do you also want to go south?"

"Yes." Mo Dehong answered straightforwardly.

"You have to pass through the defense zone of the 22nd Army. Commander-in-Chief Sun will not agree."

"I know."

Mo Dehong sighed helplessly.

Now, the two divisions of the Japanese invaders have become the favorites of the national army.

All troops, all factions, want a piece. Everyone knows that this is an unprecedented achievement.

To the south of Yanzhou is the 22nd Army commanded by Sun Zhen.

They were responsible for attacking from north to south and compressing the living space of the two divisions of the Japanese invaders.

Among the formation of the 22nd Army, there is the 41st Army commanded by Wang Mingzhang. Its subordinate 122nd Division was the main force leading the attack.

Whether it was Yu Xuezhong or Mo Dehong, who wanted to go south to join the war, they had to ask Sun Zhen to give up part of the battlefield.

Of course Sun Zhen was not happy. This is obviously to **** the fruits of victory!

Zhang Yong would not come forward for such a thing.

He never steals the fruits of victory from others. He can create it himself.

silence.

a long time.

Mo Dehong suddenly looked around, and then whispered: "Commissioner, have you heard anything?"

"No." Zhang Yong shook his head, "Just say what you want."

"It is said that the Japanese sued for peace."

"Seek peace?"

Zhang Yong was indifferent.

Yu Xuezhong was also expressionless.

They won't believe it.

War is not like children playing house.

Are you the one who says you want to fight, and the one who says you don’t want to fight, then you don’t want to fight? joke…

Sure enough, Mo Dehong continued: "The commissioner refused."

Zhang Yong and Yu Xuezhong still didn't respond.

Didn't pay attention to it at all.

The third day…

Day four…

The fifth day…

Things are gradually going wrong.

The map of the Air Force shows that the Japanese invaders are still stubbornly resisting.

Judging from the statistics of the results released by the headquarters, the national army had already wiped out more than 80,000 Japanese invaders.

However, the Japanese fifth and tenth divisions continued to fight north of Taierzhuang. The national troops participating in the war were unable to completely annihilate them.

Zhang Yong didn't know the specific situation. Is it because the national army's attack is not very effective?

Maybe so. The battle was not resolved for a long time.

The danger comes from the direction of Bengbu.

The Air Force map showed that a large number of Japanese invaders were attacking northwest.

They did not attack Xuzhou head-on. Instead, they detoured through Shouchun, Yingshang, and Fuyang and attacked in the direction of Taihe and Zhoukou.

He frowned secretly.

This move of the Japanese invaders was a roundabout move, a bit vicious!

You know, the main force of the national army is currently concentrated near Xuzhou. The troops at Zhoukou are empty.

"Report!"

A staff officer hurried over.

Hand Zhang Yong an urgent telegram.

Zhang Yong finished reading. Hurry to the Third Army Headquarters.

The atmosphere here has become tense.

"A large Japanese aggressor force was discovered in Fuyang." Yu Xuezhong looked serious. "They got entangled with the 48th Army. The battle between the two sides was very fierce."

"The target of the Japanese invaders may be Kaifeng." Zhang Yong had a very bad premonition.

In the past few days, the situation has obviously changed dramatically. The Japanese invaders began to adopt a more radical attack plan. Perhaps it was because Chiang Kai-shek rejected the Japanese invaders' request for peace and was determined to eat up the two Japanese invaders' divisions. Therefore, the Japanese invaders became angry and directly attacked Kaifeng. Trying to cut off the Longhai Railway from the west and at the same time surround all the national troops near Xuzhou.

I have to say that the Japanese invaders' plan was really arrogant.

He actually wanted to surround hundreds of thousands of national troops.

The telegram Zhang Yong received was about the 48th Army.

The 48th Army reported that it encountered a large Japanese aggressor force in Fuyang and started a fierce battle.

Soon, the 48th Army was convinced that what they encountered was the main force of the Japanese Third Division. There are numerous 75mm mountain guns for cover.

The air command map shows that the Japanese 105mm howitzer has also arrived in Shouchun.

"Report!"

Another staff officer sent a telegram.

After Zhang Yong read it, his expression became even grimmer.

Japanese invaders were discovered near Bozhou. It's a light force.

There is no mistake in every song, one post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look!

There is no love war.

Get around quickly.

Continue north.

"Not good!" Yu Xuezhong blurted out after reading, "Shangqiu is in danger! Longhai Railway is in danger!"

He is also a veteran of the battlefield. Very familiar with the Central Plains region.

Bozhou is not far from Shangqiu.

Since the Japanese invaders could attack Bozhou by surprise, they could certainly attack Shangqiu by surprise.

In fact, Yu Xuezhong strongly suspected that the Japanese invaders' sneak attack troops should be aimed at the Longhai Railway.

As long as the Longhai Railway is blown up, the national army in the Xuzhou area will be passive.

And blowing up the railway is very simple. Just blow up a small railroad bridge. There's simply no way to fix it anytime soon.

Even, blow up hundreds of meters of railway. It is also very troublesome to rebuild it.

As it happens, there are several railway bridges near Shangqiu. The shortest one is probably only about a hundred meters. It can be broken easily.

Are there any national army troops near Shangqiu? have.

But they couldn't have noticed that many railroad bridges.

In fact, even if you notice it, you can't keep it all.

The Japanese invaders randomly attacked a certain railway bridge, and no one could defend it. Unless it's Zhang Yong. Ability to detect Japanese aggressor movements in advance.

Zhang Yong was silent.

No words were spoken.

At this time, I can't say too much.

It may make everyone more nervous.

The headquarters should have also reacted. Chiang Kai-shek was not stupid.

The main force of Japanese invaders appeared in Fuyang. Japanese light-armed troops appeared in Bozhou. The Japanese invaders' intentions were already obvious.

What remains is how the headquarters responds.

Run away immediately?

Keep fighting?

In fact, both options are possible.

Retreat immediately. Run away. It is naturally easiest to retreat before the Japanese aggressors encircle them.

However, in that case, Xuzhou will fall. All previous preparations will be in vain.

Is Lao Jiang willing to give up?

Probably reluctant to give up.

There is another very important factor. It was Han Fuju who had just been shot. The crime was to flee without a fight and abandon Jinan.

If Chiang Kai-shek also flees without a fight, he will abandon Xuzhou. He will definitely be reviled by everyone in the world. Chiang Kai-shek couldn't bear it.

The second way is to continue fighting.

Seize the time, kill Seishiro Sakagaki and Rensuke Isotani, and then break out.

At that time, there may be more battles. Xuzhou will also be lost. Troop losses may also be relatively large.

In fact, from the moment the Longhai Railway was cut off, Xuzhou was finished.

The comprehensive national strength of the Japanese invaders is still much stronger than that of China. There are many strategies and tactics that can be adopted.

You can attack Kaifeng along the Yellow River.

You can also go north along Fuyang and Zhoukou to attack Kaifeng.

It can even continue to the west and threaten the Ping-Han Railway.

The Pinghan-Hankou Railway is also very important to the national army. Once cut off, the consequences will be extremely serious.

In the Central Plains region, roads extend in all directions. Conducive to Japanese invaders' actions.

The population is dense. Materials are abundant. Conducive to Japanese raids.

There is no doubt that the Japanese raiding troops must have looted everywhere along the way and replenished food on the spot.

"Commissioner!"

"Commissioner!"

Sun Tongxuan came in a hurry with injuries.

Obviously, he also knew the information about the Japanese invaders' presence in Fuyang and Bozhou. Feeling very uneasy.

"Commander Sun, please sit down." Zhang Yong said slowly.

"Commissioner, the Japanese invaders are planning something big!" Sun Tongxuan was really anxious.

because!

They are in the northeasternmost part of the battlefield!

Once the Japanese encirclement is formed, it will be the most difficult for them to break out!

They need to take the farthest route! You may encounter a lot of Japanese invaders on the road! The losses may be very heavy!

The Japanese invaders were encircled in Shouchun, Fuyang, Zhoukou and Kaifeng!

It is a full five to six hundred miles away from Yanzhou!

Even if you have to march fifty miles every day, it will take ten days!

What's more, with the intermittent fighting along the way and having to face the Japanese invaders at any time, ten days would definitely not be enough.

"Commander Sun! Calm down!" Yu Xuezhong had to raise his tone.

Although he was also nervous. But as the commander-in-chief of the group army, he had to stabilize the morale of the army.

If you were a military commander, you would be so anxious. What about the troops below? Could it be that the morale of the army is fluctuating and it could collapse at any time?

Sun Tongxuan stopped talking.

It's not that he's afraid of death. The situation is really critical.

He is a military commander. Need to be responsible for the entire army. He couldn't let the loss of his troops go to waste.

final…

Both of them stared at Zhang Yong.

"No matter what happens, I will personally cut off the queen!"

Zhang Yong said calmly.

Sun Tongxuan:…

Yu Xuezhong:…

Look at each other. They all regained their composure.

On the Songhu battlefield, Zhang Yong was responsible for cutting off the rear. On the battlefield of Jinling, Zhang Yong was also responsible for cutting off the rear.

Under his cover, the other troops retreated safely.

This time, if Zhang Yong personally cuts off the queen, he should...

"Ring ring ring..."

"Ring ring ring..."

Suddenly, the phone rang.

A staff officer looked serious after answering the phone.

"Report! Xuzhou phone number!"

"Mr. Commissioner, please come and answer the phone in person."

"good."

Zhang Yong walked over. Pick up the phone.

The strange yet familiar voice of Lin Qianjun came from the other end of the phone.

"Commissioner."

"Is it you?"

Zhang Yong did not expect that Lin Qianjun would also come to Xuzhou.

Did Lao Jiang ask him to come?

Or did he find his own way to follow Chiang Kai-shek?

It couldn't have come at a better time...

"Commissioner, the commissioner wants to have a phone call with you. Please avoid others."

"OK."

Zhang Yong waved his hand behind him.

Yu Xuezhong and Sun Tongxuan immediately understood that it was the commission calling.

The two people hurriedly asked everyone else to leave.

Zhang Yong was very calm.

Just get used to it.

A moment later, my voice came to my advantage, "A large number of Japanese troops were discovered in the direction of Fuyang..."

"Commissioned. I already knew it just now." Zhang Yong replied, "No matter what the headquarters arranges, I will be responsible for the rearguard action."

"We must continue to fight." The advantage is that my voice is a bit high-pitched, "We can't just settle the matter hastily. Xuzhou is a battleground for military strategists and a strategic key point in the Central Plains. We absolutely cannot escape without fighting..."

Zhang Yong listened quietly.

It was judged that there were some differences between Lao Jiang and others.

Maybe other people noticed something was wrong and suggested a quick retreat. To preserve strength.

But Chiang Kai-shek was unwilling.

It took a lot of effort to gather so many troops. How could the decisive battle with the Japanese invaders end in a tailspin?

What's more, there are so many foreign observers. So many people are watching.

At this moment, what Lao Jiang needs is an audience.

An "excellent" listener who listens completely to him without any objections.

As the best loser, Zhang Yong is of course the chosen one to confide in.

really…

The advantage talked about it in my endless.

Zhang Yong has been silent.

a long time…

"What do you have?"

"I fully follow the instructions of the seat. How can I execute how to arrange the seat."

Focusing on a obedience.

In fact, Zhang Yong didn't want to turn around and ran.

Now, things have not been in danger. There is still time.

The 48th Army should block the main force of the Japanese invaders in Fuyang. Wait until other national army's main force came to reinforce.

It is impossible to want to occupy Kaifeng in the north.

On the occasion of the situation, the main force of the national army of the 74th and 71st Army will reinforce in the direction of Fuyang.

The roundabout tactics of Japanese invaders should be curbed.

In this way, the final decisive battle is still near Xuzhou.

Since there is still time, of course, it is to clean up Sakagaki Misako Shiro and Izukuyosuke.

These two divisions should be at the end of the crossbow.

Continue to fight, these two divisions are absolutely finished.

Even if you ca n’t kill Sakagaki Misako Shiro and Izumi, these two divisions are unlikely to enter the battlefield in the short term.

Backbone are all eliminated. The system does not exist. Can they still fly?

The current problem is that the attack of the national army lacks strength. Can't solve the battle. As a result, a large number of military forces of the National Army were restrained.

If the two divisions of the Japanese invaders are cleaned up, the 200,000 national army will free up.

Hey, it is not known who is dead in the end.

"You are fine."

The advantage is that I am very happy.

Finally, someone faithfully obeyed his order.

Moreover, this person has a strong persuasion.

Other Hu Zongnan, Tang Enbo, or something, did not have Zhang Yong's ability to influence.

"Then continue to fight."

"yes."

"You immediately go to the 20th Army to supervise the war. End the siege war as soon as possible."

"yes."

"If there is a resistance, cut off! No matter who it is!"

"yes!"

【Unhappy to be continued】
