Chapter eight hundred and ninety-eight: the new 38 division, time to work
At this moment, the commander-in-chief of the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Henan First Corps and the staff of the New First Army Operations Department were busy arguing which route the Japanese remnants from the front of the 8th Army's position would take.
In the dark night, although the Japanese army was a defeated general, they had mechanized marching tools, which were much faster than their legs. As long as there was enough oil, they could run forward non-stop.
This night, you can run out at least one or two hundred kilometers.
The National Army marched about eighty miles in a day and marching for 120 miles in a hurry. Even if it was marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for marching for
This is impossible to chase, so I can only hope that the Japanese army will get lost, and there may be a chance.
The one who broke through the front must be the most elite Japanese troops in the besieged Guide City. According to the visual observation of the 40th Division on the position, there were thousands of people.
Although most of the Japanese army were annihilated, these thousand people were a crucial part, and they should be some officers and the most elite veterans.
These people will not take long to pull out another army when they go back. If this army is completely held down, hundreds of middle and grassroots officers ordered by the Japanese army will not be so easy to replenish.
This will invisibly weaken the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army.
Xue Boling was unwilling to accept that one night, he kept calling Huang Jie, a bastard. Didn’t he remind him to be alert? Why didn’t he listen?
He also took the reserve team to intercept the Japanese army that broke through, and also captured "Kenji Dohirahara" alive. If Kenji Dohirahara was so easy to capture, would it be your turn?
It’s really not enough to succeed, but more than enough to fail!
Xue Boling was about to remove Huang Jie's army commander on the spot, but although Huang Jie was under his control, he had not removed his post yet, so Chiang nodded.
Besides, he had already sued Huang Jie in front of Chiang Kai-shek before, and even seriously said that he would chop Huang Jie's head. Although he was angry at the time and did not understand the situation, the loss of Guide would definitely affect the situation and almost made the situation out of control. Chiang Kai-shek did not dare to force himself to protect him.
It was only when the situation that night surfaced little by little that Chiang Kai-shek spoke, asking Huang Jie to make meritorious contributions. After all, the order to retreat was not given by him in person.
This is also undeniable.
Xue Boling did not refuse to let go. He also hoped that Huang Jie would be brave before he could be brave. In the next few days, Huang Jie was indeed very brave in command of the 8th Army, leading the way and sacrificed a lot.
But now there is such a big loophole, which means that you do not obey military orders, act without authorization, and hide it from reporting, and let the enemy go. This mistake is a big mistake.
No matter how wrong this mistake was, Xue Boling didn't say anything, and reported the truth directly to Chairman Jiang's servant room in Luojiashan. I won't complain. You can break it as much as you should.
In the middle of the night, Jiang Jiang received a telegram like this from Xue Boling and sat on the bed, and suddenly became worried. How should we deal with this matter?
It's very troublesome. According to military law, it is necessary to punish both crimes. If it is really a serious sentence, it would not be too much to behead him. But Chiang did not want to kill Huang Jie. At least Huang Jie was not afraid of war, he was just eager to make contributions and made a big mistake.
But such things cannot be repeated. If such generals are not punished, no one can act at will without respecting the orders of the top of the peak. What military discipline can be discussed?
It was really hard for Lao Jiang to make a decision. He sat on the bed for a long time and was stunned. Guide City was recovered. This was a good thing. At least the Longhai Line was temporarily safe, internal hidden dangers were cleared, and the Japanese army's road to Henan Zhong was blocked, so the Pinghan Railway Line was safe.
This incident really made Lao Jiang breathe a sigh of relief and could have a stable sleep, but except for such a thing, Lao Jiang was so angry that he cursed.
Shouldn’t you be cautious at this time?
Is there anyone who is so uneasy about Huang Jie, a student who makes the principal feel so worried?
However, the commendation of the First Corps of East Henan should be commended, and the rewards should be rewarded. After delaying for half an hour, a commendation telegram of "I feel so comforted".
Xue Boling received the telegram and smiled bitterly. Chiang still wanted to protect his son, which was too obvious.
At this point, Xue Boling didn't know what to say, and the rewards and punishments were unknown. This was the biggest taboo as the commander of the first army. Of course, Huang Jie is now leading troops to chase the Japanese army, and the punishment is not appropriate at this time.
"Military, according to our analysis, if Kenji Doihara was in this breakthrough force, he might finally choose these three-day routes. The first one is to go south and enter the mountainous area of northern Anhui, where the jungle is full of mountains, it is easy to hide its tracks and is not easy to find. Moreover, it is rainy season and marching is not easy, but the Japanese army carries mechanized equipment. If they want to get rid of the pursuers, they must abandon the mechanized marching equipment. This road is the most difficult. Enter Anhui, he If we want to go out safely, it is absolutely no less than fighting another Battle of Guide. The second road, heading southeast, passes from Bozhou and Xiayi, and goes directly to Yongcheng. This is the closest road, but this road must pass through our blockade line. Now Bozhou is under my control. This road must be extremely dangerous. Even if it can pass through, there is probably not much left. The third road, travels between Tuocheng and Bozhou, detours through Luyi, head to Woyang, and joins the Japanese army there..."
Looking at Long Yingqin's bloody red eyes, Leng Feng nodded. It could be seen that within less than an hour, the combat staff of the Staff Office were all holding their energy, analyzing, summarizing, and summing up all possible thoughts, and summing up the direction and purpose of the Japanese army's march after breaking through.
Although Leng Feng affirmed their hard-working analysis, he did not agree with their judgment.
What a normal person can think of, then his opponent can naturally think of it. If Kenji Doihara considers the problem with a normal person's thinking, then he will be an ordinary general. Kenji Doihara is an intelligence-related person who is good at guessing people's hearts and has a very clever grasp of human nature and hearts.
Ordinary generals of the National Army may not be able to plot against him.
"Guoguang, do you have any other opinion?" Xie Jiyuan saw that Leng Feng did not agree with Long Yingqin and the others' analysis and judgment.
"Old Xie, if you were Kenji Doihara, would you choose one of these three paths?" Leng Feng stood in front of the sand table and slowly looked up at Xie Jiyuan and asked.
"I, I will choose the third route. This route is the safest, at least it can rush out of the controlled area of our country's army as quickly as possible. If the Woyang side sends Japanese troops to support it, this Japanese army will easily escape." Xie Jiyuan thought for a moment.
Leng Feng nodded. This choice is very common.
"I am the only local security regiment in Tuocheng, and the 8th Army's logistics and logistics units. If you pass through Tuocheng Defense Zone, it will be relatively easier." Long Yingqin also echoed.
"Do you all think that the Japanese army will choose this route?"
"Martial Commander, it is more likely that we are just inclined toward this route, but we are not sure which route this Japanese army will take. After all, we are not the Japanese army." Long Yingqin explained.
"Does anyone know how much gasoline and grain bombs this Japanese army was carrying to break through the siege?" Leng Feng suddenly asked.
"this……"
"According to the Japanese customs, they usually marching and fighting, and they will bring enough rations for a week and each soldier will be given two hundred bullets..."
"Three days, no more than three days at most, and each soldier's bullet will not exceed fifty rounds, even less than what we predicted. I want information about the Japanese airdrop of Guide in the past two days!" Leng Feng ordered.
"Military throne, the materials and materials of the Japanese army airdropped by Guide!"
"The Japanese army that broke through the siege, except for the necessary marching tools, had all the heavy firepower equipment abandoned. The airdropped materials in these two days were about 30 tons. Apart from the consumption, judging by the intensity of the battle, the Japanese army should not have much ammunition left, and some were consumed when breaking through. What would you do if you were Kenji Doihara after breaking through?" Leng Feng calmly swept across everyone's faces and asked.
"Looking for supplements is at least food supplements!"
"But didn't they carry dry food for three days?"
"No, they don't have time to prepare, so I judge that they can carry dry food for at most about a day, and the weather is so hot, and it is easy to get broken if they carry too much dry food. Once the food is broken, people will lose their stomachs when they eat it. In that case, it will not only drag down the marches, but also not guarantee combat effectiveness. Therefore, Kenji Doihara will look for supplies as soon as possible." Leng Feng said.
"The military captain means that Kenji Doihara may rob along the way?"
"How much material can you get from robbing the people? Kenji Doihara will not do this. If he wants to do it, he will definitely make a big vote, which is in line with his personality." Leng Feng said, "Taocheng, Kenji Doihara must have a formality with Huang Jie."
After saying that, Leng Feng picked up a small sun flag on the table and inserted it into Tuocheng's position.
"Where is the New 38th Division?"
"The Duji area in Yucheng is in secluded and rested." Intelligence counselor Hu Yanan replied immediately.
"Order Luo Yufeng to set off immediately and lead his troops to Takushima. It depends on whether he can catch Kenji Doihara." Leng Feng waved his hand and ordered.
"Do you want to know Chief Xue?"
"Well, that's right." Leng Feng thought for a moment and nodded. He could not learn from Huang Jie. Although the New 38th Division had the power to act alone, no matter how it was taken, he should notify the master Xue Boling before the action. This is a kind of respect.
It was almost zero, and the commander-in-chief of the commander-in-chief of the East Henan First Corps was still brightly lit and crowded, and there was a tense and busy atmosphere.
Although the Japanese army in Guide finally broke through, they finally recovered Guide, eliminated the vast majority of the Japanese army, and successfully stopped the cruel conspiracy of Japanese troops to burn Guide.
This was a rare victory, and this was undeniable, so the front finger of the Corps Commander was full of joy, and it was more happy than depressed.
"Captain Xue, based on the information we had before, he analyzed the whereabouts of the Japanese army breaking through the 8th Army's position, as well as wargame deduction and judgment. The General Staff believes..."
"Chief of Staff, urgent electricity."
"What's the matter?" Wu Xiqi was very unhappy. His dislike was that his subordinates interrupted him, especially when he reported to Xue Boling.
"It was sent by Chief Leng of the New First Army." The confidential staff member quickly added.
Wu Xiqi's anger immediately dissipated. Leng Feng's telegram must be reported as soon as possible. No matter what the situation is, great things can be interrupted.
"What did Leng Guoguang say?" Xue Boling turned his head and asked. He obviously heard the conversation between confidential staff officer and Wu Xiqi.
Wu Xiqi took the telegram and glanced at it, and suddenly felt shocked: "Sir Xue, Leng Guoguang's telegram said that Kenji Doihara knows the truth that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. He must be among the Japanese army breaking through the front, and according to his analysis and judgment, Kenji Doihara, the breakthrough unit, did not carry much food supplies, and he is very likely to attack Takucheng!"
“Does Tuocheng have our material supply warehouse?”
"No, but the 8th Army had retreated to Tuocheng before, and now there is only one local security regiment that defends Tuocheng, and there is also a small number of baggage units of the 8th Army!" Wu Xiqi said.
"Contact Huang Jie immediately and call Tuocheng!"
"Sir Xue, the phone is out of touch!"
"The radio station of the commander Huang Jie cannot be contacted..."
"Damn it!" Xue Boling punched hard on the sand table, and a sense of anger surged in his heart. He should have thought of how could Kenji Doihara break through, so why wouldn't he make complete preparations?
"Sir Xue, Leng Guoguang's judgment may not be correct..."
"My Chief of Staff, haven't you noticed that the information sent to us by Yasha did not mention the situation of the Japanese army making dry food?" Xue Boling angrily rebuked.
"this……"
"They did not carry enough dry food. In order to break through, they must have a lightweight formation. Therefore, they must obtain food supplies, otherwise they would have starved to death before they could get out of our encirclement."
Wu Xiqi slapped his forehead and suddenly realized.
