"Sir Xue, don't you think so?"

"You have a good analysis. Kenji Doihara is indeed creating opportunities for us. He wants to lure us to take the initiative, but this is definitely not just a heavy blow to us. He is making room for his future." Xue Boling said heavily.

"Make up space for your future?"

"Kenji Doihara is in a very bad situation now. He did not go south quickly to cut off my Longhai line as ordered by the Japanese base camp, which has already caused his immediate superior, Kazuki Kiyoshi, to lose Guan'er. The old devil of Sakaichi Seizumi, is famously stubborn and will not let anyone who disobeys his orders easily. Therefore, if Kenji Doihara wants to continue to stay in the 14th Division, he must find a sufficient reason for himself."

“A good reason?”

"Yes, a reason why he had to go south, so that he could convince some people to help him change his mind."

"This is unlikely?" Wu Xiqi said, "You have said that the general Tochiko is famous for taking stubbornness. How could he easily listen to Kenji Doihara?"

"He may not listen to Kenji Doihara, but he has to listen to some people's words." Xue Boling explained, "The 14th Division is in a very delicate situation now. Sora Nakano is not good at using his mind, but it does not mean that all the Japanese generals will ignore it. That is more than 20,000 elite Japanese troops. If this is swallowed by us, it will be fun. Even if Sora Nakano realizes the strategic idea of ​​connecting our North China and Central China, such a huge loss may be enough for him to directly retire in Tokyo."

"The analysis of Chief Xue makes sense, but how can Ken Doihara and others be in Caozhou? I will persuade those people to help him speak?"

"I don't know this, maybe he will have a solution."

"Well if we don't move, wouldn't that ruin his plan?"

"No, he needs our help."

"Sir Xue, I heard it right, are we going to help him?" Wu Xiqi's eyes fell out in shock.

"Appoint the Eighth Army of Huang Jie, who was stationed in Guide, to send at least one brigade troops to advance towards Caozhou in the name of assisting the Western Shandong Corps. He told Huang Jie that after the troops arrived in Cao County, they would be commanded by General Sun Yinting, the commander of the Western Shandong Corps."

"What should I do with Guide's defense?"

"Order Li Bohao's 64th Army to enter Yucheng and ensure the safety of Guide's right wing and Xiayi."

"Order the 74th Army to move towards Kaocheng."

"Sir Xue, are we going to surround the Doihira Division?"

"No, we just make a sound and spy on Kenji Doihara's reaction. The specific stimulating work will be done by Leng Guoguang." Xue Boling stared at the map and said slowly.

"What will Leng Guoguang do?" Wu Xiqi asked.

"I don't know, but it won't take long before we will know."

"I'll draft a combat order, but the chairman won't report it?" Wu Xiqi asked.

"Not busy, we will report after Leng Guoguang's actions."

"Sir Xue, I'm afraid that someone will report to Shangfeng earlier, so that we will be passive?" Wu Xiqi reminded that the one above was always in control of the battle situation.

"Never mind, such transfers are within my authority. I will send the order first, and when will I report it, and wait for my order." Xue Boling said heavily.

"Okay." Wu Xiqi nodded helplessly. He knew Xue Boling. If he really made a decision, the nine-headed cow would not be able to pull him back.

Yuncheng, honors the First Division.

"Recently, the Japanese army launched the Purple-3 password code. They should have obtained the new type of password machine from Germany. We don't have this type of password machine in our hands, so it is too difficult to decipher."

"Did the Japanese army realize that their secret codes were deciphered by us?"

"It shouldn't be known, but due to the huge gap in technical strength, they shouldn't have thought that we had deciphered their passwords before. This upgrade should be the subsequent impact of the capture of Ryosuke Iotani." Xue Ping explained.

"Well." Leng Feng nodded. There are gains and losses. Isotani Ryosuke and most of the senior officers of his division were captured. The secret codes naturally have the possibility of leaking. The Japanese would not foolishly use the original password. That doesn't mean that they open their minds to their opponents. Is there no secret?

"I will find a way to write password machines, but there are certain rules for Japanese password writing, and they cannot replace all passwords at once, so we still have the opportunity to find news that is beneficial to us from clues."

"clear."

"Mr. Liang Dong called, and thirty-six trucks of fuel have been transported back. They are on the water route. They can reach Yuncheng in as early as three days."

"Okay, call Liang Dong back. His current mission is to find out the Japanese army's garrison in northern Henan, especially to keep an eye on the independent 4th Brigade."

"yes."

“Are their supplies adequate?”

"There is no problem for people, but the horse's forage is a bit insufficient, they said it can be solved."

"Well, Kenji Doihara is very cunning. He must have guessed that I sent someone into his backyard and would do everything possible to find them, so that he could be more careful no matter when," Leng Feng ordered.

"Captain Xue called and the First Corps moved forward. The closest distance to the 14th Division was less than twenty kilometers." Long Yingqin handed Leng Feng a telegram.

Leng Feng took a look and handed it to Xie Jiyuan.

"Guoguang, what does this Chief Xue mean? I plan to deal with the Tukaiyuan Division in western Shandong?" Xie Jiyuan looked at the telegram and asked in surprise.

"No, he saw that Kenji Doihara gave us bait, but we must eat this bait, otherwise the battle below will not be easy to fight." Leng Feng said.

"Is this to ensure the safety of the Longhai Line?" Xie Jiyuan said.

"Yes, this is a lifeline. At least for us, there is no need to lose money. Even if it is cut off by the Japanese army for one day, the losses caused are immeasurable." Leng Feng nodded.

"I understand, you've already thought about it?"

"The battlefield that Xue Boling and I chose for Kenji Doihara is here!" Leng Feng said gently at Lanfeng's location on the map.

"Lanfeng?"

"Yes, a floating bridge can be directly built from Chenliu Ferry to lead to the other side. When I cut off the supply line from Dongkou to Puyang, Kenji Doihara will find a second lifeline that allows him to obtain supplies, which is here."

"Will Kenji Doihara definitely go?"

"I will definitely go!" Leng Feng said with great confidence.

In addition to the ferry to obtain supplies, he also wanted to occupy Kaifeng and even Zhengzhou. If he took Zhengzhou, he would be able to forgive all the mistakes made by Tuohiro before.

Because in this way, the Japanese army had an attacking stronghold on the south bank of the Yellow River on the Pinghan Line, so that the Japanese army on the north bank of the Yellow River could go south to Wuhan along the Pinghan Line, and could also attack northern Shaanxi to the west, and go south to the country of Tianfu. In that way, Sichuan would not be the Great West of the War of Resistance.

This is how the Mongolian Yuan and the Qing dynasties entered the Central Plains.

If Leng Feng and the First Division of Honor had not appeared, Kenji Doihara would have already launched a battle against Lanfeng, so he would have had such a dilemma today. After Luxi's sneak attack plan was blocked, he would have to get out of the predicament.

If you go south to cut off the Longhai Line, the danger coefficient is too high. If you don’t get stuck in it, you will be in danger of defeat. It would be fine if the Isogu Division fought well in Taierzhuang.

But now the Isogai Division has almost been destroyed, and the Chinese army in Xuzhou has been vacant and half of it has been brought to him and Doihara alone to bear it. This is not a good result.

Even if someone helps him share the burden, the blocking force he encountered was unprecedentedly powerful. Kenji Doihara was not three heads and six arms, and could eat hundreds of thousands of Chinese soldiers in one breath.

Only one honorary division, he bite two bites, and felt that it was too hard and even lost two big front teeth.

"I'll ask, has Madman Luo rested enough?"

"yes!"

A very simple telegram was transmitted to the command center of the New 38th Division. The New 38th Division command center has transferred from Yutai to Jinxiang, and the troops have advanced westward, reaching Wanfeng in Juye in the north, reaching the Tomb Shangji bordering Dingtao to the west, and to the south is Zhanglou near Chengwu and Dangji area, and contacting the 138th Brigade of the 46th Division in Shan County.

"Stand Master, Chief Leng Telegram, ask Luo Crazy Man if he had enough rest?" Li Dong, Chief of Staff, walked into Luo Yufeng's room and saw Luo Yufeng lying on the kang humming a little song and reported loudly.

"Where is the telegram?" Luo Yufeng got up from the bed and stretched out his hand.

Li Dong handed over the message.

"Greet Chief Qin and go to the command center for a meeting in ten minutes." Luo Yufeng swept the content of the telegram and ordered seriously.

"yes!"

Ten minutes later, the new 38 is the command center conference room.

"General Leng has come to order. We are going to fight against this old Japanese devil Tukaiyuan." Luo Yufeng said in the first sentence of the meeting, "This is an old enemy. Can we still win another Taierzhuang victory?"

"able!"

"Just be confident, I will announce the combat order below!"

"Ding Yiming!"

"have!"

"The brigade and the other regiment set out from Zhanglou and attack from Chengwu East Gate. Be sure to take down Chengwu East Gate before noon tomorrow!"

"yes!"

"The first brigade and the second regiment attacked from the Dangji to the north gate..."

"All troops will launch an attack at 6 a.m. tomorrow!" Luo Yufeng said seriously, "Zhu Yaming, deputy brigade commander and second regiment commander of the First Brigade, commanding the battle with all his power, and be sure to win Chengwu within one day!"

"yes!"

"Master, where is our Second Brigade?" Wu Youyuan, who had just been promoted to the commander of the Second Brigade, stood up and asked.

"The Second Brigade is responsible for fighting aid, and the Japanese army in Dingtao will be handed over to you. Fight whatever you want." Luo Yufeng waved his hand.

"No, the attack on Cheng Wucai used two regiments, was it a little less?"

"The friendly troops in Cao County and Shan County will also send a regiment to participate in the war. You don't have to worry about this. Four regiments are enough to win the war."

"Is this over?"

"What else do you want? The general attack of Chengwu County is less than a brigade of Japanese troops. Our two main groups have only 3,000 people. In addition, two friendly troops, there are at least 5,000 people, which is seven or eight times the enemy. It is more than enough to fight Chengwu." Qin Yankun smiled.
