"Military captain, Chief Xue called and asked us to pay attention to the Japanese army in Caozhou City."

"Well, what's going on with Guide?"

"I don't know much at the moment. Now I only know it is a fast mechanized Japanese army. The number of people is no more than 3,000, equipped with a large number of motorcycles, cars and armored vehicles. They move very quickly and disguised themselves as our troops along the way. They are very concealed. The 8th Army is not unfairly defeated."

"The route did this Japanese army walk?"

"It's not clear yet. Chief Xue has sent someone to Tuocheng. I guess after seeing Commander Huang Jie, everything will be understood." Long Yingqin said.

"Call back to Xue Boling and say thank you for your reminder, and say something to help, just say something."

"Military throne, we don't have enough troops..."

"You think the military throne is not clearer than you. What is lighter and what is heavier? The military throne is clearly divided. You cannot let Kenji Doihara join the Central China Front Army, otherwise there will be endless troubles." Xie Jiyuan walked over and said.

"Old Xie is right. Kenji Doihara is a person who is good at seizing opportunities. This successful raid by the Japanese army in Central China was a desperate situation for him. He will definitely contact the Japanese army in Guide as soon as possible, and even send an elite force to go there immediately. Don't forget that his troops are very mechanized." Leng Feng analyzed.

"I don't know if Chief Xue reacted and made an accurate judgment on the next move of the Doihara Division."

"Why didn't the military clerk remind Chief Xue?"

"Reminder, how do I remind you? What I am talking about now is my guess and I made advance predictions. This is just a guess and does not combine with the actual situation on the battlefield. What if my predictions are wrong?"

"The prediction was wrong?"

"Long Yingqin, don't think too much. Chief Xue can think of the Japanese army in Caozhou for me. Do you think he would not think of it?" Leng Feng smiled slightly, "General Xue is an experienced veteran, so there is no need to worry about him."

Kaifeng, the command center of the 1st Corps in East Henan.

After the Japanese army captured Neihuangji, Xue Boling immediately ordered Song Yinguo to organize troops to prepare to regain his position, and also transferred Zhong Song's 61st Division to launch a fierce attack on Neihuangji Japanese army.

Never let the Japanese army cross the Longhai Railway Line!

Once you cross the line, the next battle will be difficult to fight.

The commander-in-chief of the First War Zone also pulled out troops from the rear to support the battle of the First Corps. The 142nd Cavalry Division strengthened the double towers, and cooperated with Li Bohao's 64th Army to launch a blocking attack on the Japanese army that broke through the Longhai Line at any time.

The Japanese army defended Neihuangji to the death. After fighting for a whole day, GJ was unable to recover Neihuangji.

The difference in combat power is too great.

"Captain Xue, according to the current situation, the Japanese army continues to attack Lanfeng, which is of little significance, but why does Kenji Doihara still insist on fighting with us?" In the command center, including Chief of Staff Wu Xiqi, did not quite understand why the Japanese army had to hit the south wall.

Even if they captured Lanfeng, they would not get the supplies on the other side of the Yellow River. Kenji Doihara could not have known that Xinxiang had already recovered and all supplies were in the hands of the new army.

Such a meaningless attack will only consume their own strength.

Xue Boling remained silent. He knew what choice Doihara Kenji faced, and continued to fight against him, Xue Boling, or to lead his troops south to join the Central and Japanese troops who were raiding Guide, and gain a glimmer of hope for himself.

But if he wants to do this, he must pass the hurdle in his heart. If he admits his failure now, not only will he lose himself, but the entire North China Front Army will lose.

Also, he has to pay the price for his will. If he occupy Lanfeng and then conquers Kaifeng, the capital of Henan Province, he might be able to give himself a little glory to the 1st Army.

But now, he is not shining at all. If it weren't for someone else's rescue, he might have been surrounded and was a situation where he could not be called "Dao Tiantian" and "Dao Tiantian should not be called "Dao Tiandi".

Xue Boling had never fought with Dohihara. He didn't know whether Dohihara Kenji had given up his obsession. The Japanese army defended Neihuangji to the death, which may not be a single purpose.

Kenji Doihara must not carry a single person.

"Send the order, and I will be careful to guard against Japanese troops tonight!" Xue Boling thought carefully for a while, then raised his head and ordered.

"yes!"

"Sir Xue, you seem to have something to worry about?" Wu Xiqi asked. He has been classmates and colleagues for more than ten years and he still knows old classmates and bosses.

"When did you say Doihiro go to Guide?"

"Dohihara goes to Guide, is this impossible?"

"He will go, it's just a matter of time. If he doesn't find a breakthrough here, he can only go to Guide, unless we can get Guide back in a short time." Xue Boling said.

Wu Xiqi was stunned for a moment. It was probably not so realistic to recover Guide in a short period of time. There were three troops near Guide, Gui Yongqing's 27th Army, Li Bohao's 64th Army, Liu Ziliang's 68th Army, and some other scattered troops. It is possible to encircle Guide, but if you want to recover Guide, you may not have the power to recover Guide.

Too passive!

Huang Jie's run made the whole plan passive. Xue Boling wanted to shoot this guy who was greedy and afraid of death now, but this guy was Lao Jiang's favorite disciple. How easy was it to kill him?

If Old Jiang wanted to protect him, he would be unable to do anything, but no matter what, he would never let this guy escape at the last minute, and he would not do anything.

His army, with nearly 20,000 people, actually allowed the 3,000 Japanese troops to easily occupy the gateway to eastern Henan and the important military city of Guide. This Lanfeng Battle brought about the risk and difficulties of encirclement and annihilation of the Tufeiyuan Division, and even failed.

"I'll ask you to remind Leng Guoguang that the telegram was sent?"

"I sent it, he called back, saying thank you for the reminder of Chief Xue, and said, "If you want to help, just say something." Wu Xiqi smiled embarrassedly. The calls and communications between the two of them have always been foggy. It would be nice to understand half of the literal meaning, and the rest is all due to guessing.

Xue Boling smiled rare and asked, "How is the situation there?"

"It's much better than us. Xinxiang has completely fallen into control. In addition, Tangyin, Qixian, Huaxian and Junxian have all been recovered by the New First Army. Anyang is left in the north, Fengqiu, Yanjin in the south, and Jiaozuo in the west are still in the hands of the Japanese army. However, except for the surrounded Mixed Independent 4th Brigade, the rest are not enough to filter. I believe that Chief Leng is only a matter of time to restore northern Henan."

"This Leng Guoguang has found a good place for himself to recuperate." Xue Boling said.

"Captain Xue, if the Doihara Division turns to Guide, then the Japanese army in Caozhou City will inevitably break through, and even Kenji Doihara will kill one and shoot back?"

"Old Wu, you are so conscious. However, it is very likely that Kenji Doihara's hatred for Leng Guoguang, but he has always planned and then acted, and he will not do anything that he was unsure of. It was not yet time to defeat the death." Xue Boling shook his hand and said.

"Isn't it time to be defeated?"

"Touhara Kenji was not sure of defeating Luo Yufeng's new 38th Division, so he did not dare to act rashly. Although most of the main forces of the New First Army have entered northern Henan, there is still another unit that stayed in Juancheng to rest. This unit is the unit that has suffered a lot from the Doihara Division. If it joins forces with the New 38th Division, and Leng Guoguang also left his armored brigade and heavy artillery regiment in Luxi, do you think that Kenji Doihara would be so stupid and would he fight with the New 38 head-on?"

"That's right, but with such powerful force, one division of the new 38th Division is worth our two armies. Why..." Wu Xiqi asked strangely.

"The new 38th Division has been fighting continuously for more than a month, and the soldiers have been exhausted. Although they can still fight, it is difficult to say how long it can last. Leng Guoguang has really calculated everything." Xue Boling sighed.

"Sir Xue, I don't really understand the humble position?"

"Leng Guoguang calculated that Kenji Doihara did not dare to fight with the New 38th Division and die together," Xue Boling explained.

"Why?"

"Tihirahara Kenjiu is regarded as a great enemy in his life, but Luo Yufeng is not."

"Is this the difference?"

"Human nature, Lao Wu, this battlefield is also a battle between the wisdom of the generals of the enemy and us. This wisdom contains human nature. Do you understand?" Xue Boling said patiently.

Wu Xiqi chewed Xue Boling's words carefully, and his eyes gradually became brighter.

From the perspective of Kenji Doihara, a new 38th Division and a Luo Yufeng are not worth his efforts. If it were Leng Feng and the New First Army, perhaps he would have died together for dignity and shame.

Leng Feng didn't think so much, but this analysis afterwards made some sense, and some people were idle and had no choice but to have no choice.

In short, the situation became increasingly strange and unpredictable. Xue Boling guessed the next move of Kenji Doihara, Leng Feng was also analyzing and judging. After all, the safety of the western Shandong passage must be considered.

"Martial!"

"Wei Quan, you're finally here. Thank you for your hard work along the way." His adjutant Guo Weiquan finally returned.

"What's wrong, why is a big man jealous?"

"Martial throne, you've lost weight."

"Stop being pretentious. I am a big man, don't do this." Leng Feng really missed Guo Weiquan very much. A subordinate was easy to use. That was really indispensable. When he couldn't help but call someone, he realized that the person was not there.

"Hehe, I haven't seen the military throne for a long time and I'm a little excited. By the way, where is the tiger?" Guo Weiquan asked. He was not here, and Cong Hu, the deputy director of the adjutant office, should be with Leng Feng.

"He has gone to Xinxiang, and we will also go to Xinxiang early tomorrow morning."

"Xinxiang?"

"You don't know yet. We have recovered Xinxiang. Soon this northern Henan will fall into our hands." Leng Feng smiled, "The superior gave you a position as director of the Northern Henan Administrative Office. The secretariat lacks a director. How about you serving as a part-time job?"

"Military captain, no, I will do whatever the director asked me to do."

"You kid, don't talk anymore. Go to have a meal first, then learn about the situation with Long Yingqin and the others, and then come to me again. I have a task to hand over to you." Leng Feng ordered.

"Yes!" Guo Weiquan saluted a military salute and walked out quickly.
