The paradox of war is that your ideas are consistent with the enemy. ◎

Leng Feng didn't know what Toshiro Hata was thinking, and he was also worried. What would happen to him once Chiang Kai-shek be determined to transfer the Honor Division to Wuhan?

This is not in Nanjing, he can ignore Chiang Kai-shek's orders at all.

At 5:14 pm, Chief Lieutenant Colonel Wei Zhiming, the staff member of Chief Lieutenant Colonel, pushed open the door of the conference room and came in with a confidential folder in the bend of his arms.

"Chief Li, Chairman's Telegram."

Li Delin stood up, took the telegram from Wei Zhiming, opened it and looked at it, showing a slight look of surprise, but soon calmed down.

"Call back and say I know." Li Delin closed the folder and gave a faint command.

"yes!"

"Dong De, what's the matter?" asked Chief of Staff Xu Yanmou.

"Mr. Jiang is coming to Xuzhou to personally supervise the battle deployment." Li Deling took a deep breath and said.

"When will Chairman Jiang come to Xuzhou?"

"I didn't say it, it probably took one or two days later. This should be a temporary decision." Li Delin guessed in his heart that Chiang Kai-shek suddenly decided to come to Xuzhou, 80% of the first division of Leng Feng's honor.

Otherwise, what's worth flying to Xuzhou now?

"How should I arrange a pick-up?"

"I'll talk about this when I receive the specific notice. Let's do this today. Let's go back." Li Delin greeted.

"It's gone, it's gone..."

When Chiang inspected the war zone, this was not a rare thing. Everyone got used to it and didn't think anything was wrong. Didn't he just like to do it himself?

"Brother Geng Guang, Commander Leng, please stay." Leng Feng heard the meeting and walked out. When Lao Jiang was about to come, he was obviously coming for him. If Lao Jiang didn't want to transfer him to Wuhan, he would never come here in person.

This time, the trouble is a bit big.

"What's wrong? Degong still wants to invite him to dinner?" Leng Feng turned his head and asked.

Huang Xuecun was stunned when he shouted. No one had ever teased his chief like this. Even those veterans did not dare to be too presumptuous in front of Li Delin.

"Brother Geng Guang, Guo Guang, De Neighbors prepare a little wine to ensure that the landlords are suitable for you. Please be sure to enjoy the glory."

Huang Xuecun's eyes were glaring out. Could Chief Li really want to invite them to dinner? Could it be that he said so casually?

"Brother Delin is so polite!" Yang Jie said, "Guoguang, Brother Delin is kind, so we should not let others down."

"I'll listen to the teacher." Leng Feng smiled. It was impossible not to stop eating this meal.

"Brother Geng Guang, please!" Li Delin laughed and took the lead, leading Yang Jie and Leng Feng to the flower hall.

The three of them sat down. Li Delin ordered the adjutant to get the wine from Guilin, Guangxi and pour it for Yang Jie and Leng Feng himself. Leng Feng stood up quickly and was flattered.

If Yang Jie hadn't been present today, he probably wouldn't have received such courtesy, so he would have benefited from the teacher today.

"Brother Geng Guang, it is an honor for all the soldiers of the fifth war zone to come to the fifth war zone."

"Brother Delin, I am ashamed, don't say that. I have not made any achievements, how dare I do this?" Yang Jie hurriedly smiled.

"Brother Geng Guang, Mr. Jiang's purpose is clearly known to you and I know the fifth war zone now lacks young talents like Commander Guoguang, so he cannot leave." Li Delin said his intention directly.

"Brother Delin wants me to make sense in front of Mr. Jiang and strive to keep Guoguang and the Honorary First Division?" How could Yang Jie not understand Li Delin's thoughts?

"Brother Geng Guang, let me tell you, although the Fifth War Zone seems to have many soldiers and a wide range of generals, there are too few troops that can compete with the Japanese army."

"Brother Delin's subordinates are also elite troops."

"There is still a big gap compared to the Japanese army." Li Delin shook his head and said.

"Brother Delin, I can tell Mr. Jiang about this, but I can't guarantee that he will listen to me. You know this person, stubborn and conceited. If you can hear other people's good words, why is the situation like this?" Yang Jie did have many dissatisfaction with Lao Jiang, but that was also out of public intention. He didn't have much personal hatred for Lao Jiang.

"I know, but Brother Geng Guang still has the weight of his words. Besides, Guoguang is your disciple, and Mr. Jiang will still consider your words." Li Delin said.

"I think Mr. Jiang will definitely summon Guoguang, Guoguang, what do you say?" Yang Jie asked.

"I naturally want to stay and fight against the Japanese invaders with Degong, but I'm a little bit of a word, and I'm afraid my arms won't be too big at that time. If the chairman really wants to transfer the first honorary division, Degong might as well try the 'Aprils' Day' plan." Leng Feng said.

He didn't want to say it at first, but after all, Chiang Kai-shek did not directly order the first division of honors. He should still have concerns. If the "Aprils' Day" plan could make him change his mind, it would be unknown.

Of course, Chiang Kai-shek hoped to win a battle in Xuzhou, so that his prestige would be even higher. Leng Feng represented the Central Army and his direct troops.

Leng Feng won the battle, and he was the one who was most proud of him. Even though this battle was commanded by Li Delin, the greatest contribution was also achieved by the Central Army.

For Lao Jiang, there is absolutely no way to refuse the fact that he gained fame and fortune.

"Guoguang, how sure are you about the April Fools' Day plan?" Li Delin asked solemnly. He also thought about it. If he really couldn't let Chiang change his mind, he could only sacrifice the "Folks' Day" plan.

If this plan is successful, it will have a huge impact on the battle situation and will have huge benefits.

Leng Feng also wanted to push Li Delin to complete this plan, because once this plan is successful, it is likely to change the current situation and may change some man-made tragedies that should not have happened.

"Thirty percent!" Leng Feng said slowly.

This is a value he came up with after careful consideration.

If you do something else, the probability of 30% is too small, which can almost be said to be extremely high. However, for a battle, the probability of 30% is actually very high.

If there is 10% hope in a battle, you can take a risk, not to mention that there is 30% chance now.

Li Delin didn't know where Leng Feng's 30% chance of success came from, but he knew this truth. His psychological estimate was between 10% and 20%.

Leng Feng himself estimated that it was 30%, which was higher than him, but considering that he was the proposer of this plan, it is understandable that he had higher expectations.

If Leng Feng predicts 60 to 70% of the chance of winning, then Li Delin has just wanted to consider this plan. This is too unpredictable and completely unrealistic.

Leng Feng's confidence is due to his understanding of the general direction of history. The Xuzhou Battle is the worst and will not be worse than the historical situation. It seems that the deployment of the Fifth War Zone has not changed much, but the situation has undergone some changes. For the Fifth War Zone, the current situation is much better than the historical situation.

The worst thing is that Li Delin still has soldiers available.

In fact, Yang Jie also made an estimate of the April Fools' Day plan in his heart. His estimate was lower than Li Delin's expectations, with less than 10% of the hope.

But I was a little surprised that the "30%" of my student suddenly appeared, but I didn't show it. Maybe he was too cautious.

If you neutralize it, you will have a 150% to 20% sure, which is worth taking risks.

War is a risky thing. If the victory or defeat of every war in the world is not to end, no one dares to say the victory or defeat easily.

"Brother Geng Guang, Guo Guang, let's deduce it, how about it?" Li Delin suggested.

Yang Jie nodded. For such a big thing, you can't make up your mind without doing a war chess deduction. Leng Feng has actually retreated many times in his mind, but he has never done real war chess deduction. First, there is no conditions, and second, there is no suitable opponent.

Originally, Yang Jie could do it, but he hadn't found a suitable excuse to propose it. Now that Li Delin has taken the initiative to propose a war game deduction, he naturally wants it.

Of course, Leng Feng cannot miss such a good learning opportunity for vain. Both his teachers, Yang Jie and Li Delin are experienced military commanders.

Because of thinking about military chess deduction, the three of them had a meal in a hurry.

Leng Feng was not polite at all. He packed two-thirds of the dishes alone. Li Delin also knew that Leng Feng was eating yesterday and was so excited that he got the nickname of "cold rice bucket". He couldn't help but tease him a few words.

Leng Feng could only smile bitterly. Eating and sleeping was the top priority in life. Why are these people not interesting at all? They like to label people and nickname them.

If you know who is behind the scenes, you must find a good talk.

Wargame deduction is a very physical and mental effort. Think about it, focusing a battle that takes several days, nights, or even ten days, months of battles to complete it on the board within a few hours is equivalent to doing the work of several days, months in one go. How much would it cost?

Strong tea, coffee...

The three of them closed the door and boiled boiling water in the war room, prepared tea and cold water...

Once they decided to do it, the three of them could not wait tomorrow and started doing it directly. Li Delin even called Xu Yanmou out of his home.

Three steps turned into four fights.

Leng Feng and Yang Jie play the role of the master and apprentice, while Li Delin and Xu Yanmou play the role of the Japanese army.

On the small sand table, the two troops began a fierce battle.

For an hour, everyone felt that the temperature in the combat room had risen a little, took off their hats, and unbuttoned the Fengji buckle.

Two hours later, a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on Li Delin's forehead, and his coat was taken off. He had already drunk three cups of strong tea, and was full of energy. His eyes were staring at the sand table, as if he was copper bells.

After three hours, Leng Feng couldn't help but wash his face with cold water, drank a cup of coffee, and came back to continue fighting.

After another half an hour, Li Delin opened the door and asked the adjutant to prepare for the midnight snack. The physical energy was too exhausted, and everyone was hungry and had to eat something to rest. The two armies fought fiercely on the sand table. The Japanese army had been introduced into the ground, and the battle in Taierzhuang was about to break out.

Leng Feng ate thirty dumplings made by the commander-in-chief's headquarters in one go, which confirmed the name of "cold rice bucket". Li Delin also ate fifteen for the first time, and Yang Jie and Xu Yanmou ate more than a dozen.

After filling your stomach, continue to fight at night.
