Tie Meng's recruitment of the 22nd Brigade of the Northeast Army was very smooth. At this time, the blood of the Northeast Army was not cold yet. They were wearing a "non-resistance" hat. They themselves felt very depressed, their families did not understand, and their friends looked despised!

As the saying goes, a snake cannot do without a head. The Northeast Army is second to none in terms of equipment and training.

However, what's the use of having excellent weapons and excellent soldiers? Being an official is concerned about getting promoted and making money, and he has no intention of fighting against the enemy at all!

Rehe was originally the forefront of the war against Japan. As an army commander, he should be determined to prepare for war, but Tang Yulin, the highest military and political chief of Rehe, can grow opium, sell drugs, and even get skinned!

Even if such a person makes a few remarks on the War of Resistance, Lu Shan looks down on him or even despises him!

If he had to follow his temperament, this old guy would have been shot in his hands!

"Mengzi did a good job. His inclusion plan is very good. It not only ensures the combat effectiveness of the 22nd Brigade and can command flexibly. It is just that time is a little hurry, otherwise the effect will be better!" Lu Shan praised after receiving Tie Meng's telegram.

"It seems that Tie Meng is very capable? If we hadn't given him such a chance, we would have really underestimated him!" Ying Ruoyu was also amazed. When Tie Meng was the commander of the Rehe Column, he was still a little worried. Now it seems that Tie Meng is not only a powerful general, but also a bit fine and detailed, and he has a good set of rules for managing and fighting the army!

"Yes, pressure makes people progress. Sometimes people are forced out. Maybe without this war, many people will live a simple life, give birth to children, and pass on the family line!"

"I originally wanted to be a teacher, but who knew that fate was tricked by fate. I accidentally joined the army and became the chief of staff. A few years ago, I didn't dare to think about it..."

"By the way. How is the situation with Wang Rong?"

"Report to General Lu, Commander Wang's attack was frustrated, and the Taoliao Army was very strong. The 183rd Division has currently captured some peripheral positions, but when it advances to Taonan City, it encounters tenacious resistance and the battle situation is in a tug-of-war!" Lu Zheng reported.

"How could this happen? The Taoliao Army is not strong in combat. How did the 183rd Division fight?" Lu Shan asked in surprise.

"Information shows that the pseudo Taoliao commander Zhang Haipeng has returned to Taonan City. And based on front-line observations, the Japanese army's supervisor team was discovered!"

"The Japanese army. How can the Japanese army with only one squadron in Taonan City stop the attack of thousands of my army?"

"Chief of Staff, the Japanese army did not participate in the war directly, but supervised the war behind the puppet army!" Lu Zhengdao.

"So that's the case. No wonder the Taoliao puppet army showed such great combat power. It turned out that there were ghosts behind the scenes!" Ying Ruoyu nodded.

"If Zhang Haipeng had no approval, the Japanese would not have the courage to do this. It seems that Zhang Haipeng is really in Taonan City!" Lu Shan said.

"Why is there no information on Zhang Haipeng's return to Taonan?"

"The Intelligence Bureau is not omnipotent. If Zhang Haipeng is willing and the Japanese helps to cover it, it will not be difficult for Zhang Haipeng to return to Taonan quietly!" Lu Shan said, "At the same time, this also shows that Zhang Haipeng had a conspiracy to return to Taonan in secret!"

"The Battle of Rehe?"

"I think only this can be explained. If the Japanese army occupied Rehe, they could not take the blame for the world and directly establish a zf led by the Japanese. They must support one person to come forward. This person is likely to be Zhang Haipeng!" Lu Shan analyzed.

"It's very possible. No wonder Zhang Haipeng quietly returned to Taonan. It's probably to cooperate with the Japanese attack on Rehe!"

"No matter what purpose it is, he is trapped in Taonan City by us now, so take him down!" Lu Shan said firmly.

"Will the Japanese army send reinforcements?"

"Zhang Haipeng is a chess piece controlled by the Japanese. If the Japanese have spare chess pieces, then he is not important to the Japanese. However, the Taonan location is not ordinary, and the Japanese will never easily abandon Taonan and send troops to rescue. This is certain, but I don't know how many people will be sent!" Lu Shan analyzed.

"How is the situation in Jiutai?"

"Early this morning, the Japanese army in Changchun reinforced Taiwan Nine and fought fiercely with our army for several hours. Our army took the initiative to retreat and confronted the Japanese army of Jiutai!"

It was expected that the Japanese army of Jiutai were stationed in an elite wing, and there were heavy weapons such as artillery and armored vehicles. The Japanese army also built solid fortifications on the periphery of Jiutai. If you want to easily capture Jiutai, it is possible to equip Zhai Lequan with an elite artillery brigade!

The reason why Lu Shanzi asked Zhai Lequan to join hands with Shulan's garrison brigade and the cavalry brigade to attack Jiutai was to restrain the Japanese army's forces!

As long as Changchun is in a threat, the first thing the Japanese army must be concerned about is the security of the puppet Manchukuo capital. In this way, even if the Japanese army is willing to reinforce Taonan, they will not have much strength!

Most of the Japanese troops were concentrated in South Manchuria, and railway transportation was also mostly needed to ensure the Rehe combat plan. At this time, even if you wanted to transfer reinforcements to the north, you would be a little unsuccessful. Kenji Doihara, who was in Changchun, received a telegram for help from Zhang Haipeng, and he felt it was quite difficult!

Although some offensive actions of Dongkang were taken by some of the Dongkang, Kenji Doihara still couldn't figure out what the purpose of Dongkang was!

To put it bluntly, Dong Kang wanted to surround Wei and save Zhao. By attacking Changchun, the capital of the puppet Manchukuo, forced the Kwantung Army to abandon the Rehe battle.

But the attack on the Nine Taiwan Strait seemed fierce, but after the reinforcements he sent arrived, he took the initiative to retreat after a brief contact!

This made Kenji Doihara wonder what Tokang wanted to do?

Could it be that it was just to attack Taonan and restrain Changchun?

If this is the case, then the Eastern Anti-Japanese side has achieved this goal. At this time, Kenji Doihara would never dare to order the Japanese troops from Jiutai to take the initiative to attack!

Because everything now revolves around the Battle of Rekawa. Once Doihara fights in Beiman City, unpredictable consequences will result, Commander Muto will take him out of the box before he is beaten!

Do Hitohara Kenji dare to take this risk?

He didn't dare. Although he was very brave, he was basically on the intelligence front before. There were not many front-line combat commands!

Moreover, the risk factor in his personality is not very big. If an intelligence person always likes to take risks, then he would have long since been killed by the enemy!

Carefulness is the first element of intelligence work!

If Seishiro Itagaki sits in his position, it's hard to say. This guy is definitely a bold adventurer!

Ishihara Kanir is the same, but he is a rational adventurer. Ishihara Kanir will consider the gains and losses, evaluate the risks and then decide whether to take risks. As for Itagaki, he felt a little excited and he carried the knife!

Kenji Doihara was confused that if Taonan fell, then Dongkang could continue to move south, which would inevitably cause huge trouble to the battle in Rehe!

So Taonan must be rescued, but who should I send to save it?

Ken Doihara was in a dilemma, and in the end he sent a telegram to Showaki Koi and Nobuyoshi Muto respectively, explaining the situation in detail!

The content of the reply from Showaki Muto Nobuyi's call was similar. One core point is that the East Anti-Japanese must not be allowed to capture Taonan and open up the southward passage!

This is a death order. Both of the immediate bosses saw that the battle in Taonan may be related to the success or failure of the entire Rehe Battle!

Once the Dong Kang moves south with the trend and join the Rehe battlefield, it will be a disaster for the Kwantung Army, especially the Dong Kang has occupied two very important strongholds in Rehe!

The Kwantung Army Command has a headache. How to remove these two strongholds? If they further increase their troops, it will inevitably add endless variables to the combat targets that occupy Rehe!

If Rehe cannot be completely occupied, then the entire Rehe combat plan will be a failure and will inevitably drag the Kwantung Army into the quagmire of war!

In that case, even if Rehe is occupied, the Kwantung Army will consume a lot of energy in the confrontation against the East!

The country is already quite dissatisfied with his rash launch of the Rehe combat plan. If he can achieve the expected goals, it will be fine. If he fails to achieve the expected goals, then the voices of support from the country will become less and less!

The importance of Taonan was suddenly raised to a higher level!

No one expected that the key to the Rehe War was not the occupied military towns like Chengde and Chifeng, but Taonan, a city that had nothing to do with Rehe!

"Retrieve the order to capture Taonan for 48 hours and change it to fight a major annihilation battle south of the Taoer River!" Lu Shan ordered in a deep voice.

"Mr. Lu wants to surround the site and attack support?" Ying Ruoyu asked.

"Yes, to be precise, we want to make our intentions come out!" Lu Shan nodded, "I am going to come over to the 1st Brigade of the Kwantung Army. Let's play a big game!"

"Old Lu, don't be joking. The 1st Brigade of the Teaching Brigade is guarding Harbin!" Ying Ruoyu exclaimed, "What should I do if the Harbin defense is transferred to the 1st Brigade?"

"Isn't there still the 10th Brigade and the Xing Zhanqing Brigade of Bin County? The Japanese army will not take the initiative to attack. Fighting on both sides is a taboo of military strategists!" Lu Shan said, "Besides, the 1st Brigade is our fist unit. People who practice martial arts know a path. If you don't practice boxing for a long time, the boxing technique will be unfamiliar. If you want to make progress, you have to fight with masters and keep fighting. The same is true for a unit. To maintain a high combat effectiveness, you must continue to fight and tap potential in the battle, otherwise it will transform and rust, and it will really become a face-saving force!"

"Okay, what you said makes sense!" Ying Ruoyu nodded. He had to admit that the temptation to go south was very great.

"Feng Yun, draft the order!" Lu Shan had made up his mind, so he would naturally not hesitate anymore. As a military commander, hesitation is the most undecisive when commanding.

"Yes!" Feng Yun was a little excited. Although the war was cruel, it also had a passionate feeling.

The 1st brigade of the 1st brigade was definitely a big deal. If you want to be silent, it would be almost impossible. Zhang Yihu, who received the order, immediately ordered all personnel outside to return to build within two hours!

Those who visit relatives and those who go out can get back within two hours, throw everything away immediately and return to the base at full speed!

"General Lu ordered all the commanders and soldiers of the 1st Brigade to board the car immediately and target Baicheng. This order was 8:36 am on November 3, 21, the Republic of China!"

The 1st brigade of the 1st brigade is no longer the original brigade. In addition to the three main regiments, it is also equipped with a supplementary regiment, a heavy machine gun battalion, a mountain artillery battalion, an engineer battalion, a baggage battalion, a car company, a communications company, a direct reconnaissance company, a health team, etc.

If the staff is full, the number of full personnel of the 1st Brigade of the 1st Brigade can be less than that of the 7th Brigade supported by the Northeast Army Imperial Guard!

Moreover, the equipment and combat effectiveness are even better than the Seventh Brigade!

The brigades of the Northeast Army were all reformed from the original division. One brigade had a thousand troops, and it was now in the first-level division of the domestic army!

Of course, the 1st brigade of the 1st brigade is not full, with only two-thirds of its personnel. This is also Lu Shan’s strict requirement. The officers and soldiers of the 1st brigade are better than nothing!

Even such a unit that is not fully organized has nearly 6,000 troops, and its combat effectiveness is definitely one of the first fronts in the East Anti-Japanese War!

Even the detained Kazumura Neji had to admit that if this team was fully equipped and full of staff, it would probably be able to compete with an elite Japanese brigade, and it would be far more than that!

Kawanumura Yanji knew that he would never be able to get freedom in his life. Maybe there was only one way, that was to end his life, and that would be eternal freedom!

Lu Shan kept him, not because he didn't want to kill him, but because he killed him now was not good for Dong Kang. Keep him and let him witness the defeat of Japan with his own eyes.

The most elite troops of the Eastern Anti-Japanese War suddenly set off, which caused the Japanese spies hiding in Harbin to panic. At this time, the Eastern Anti-Japanese suddenly had such a big move, with only one goal, targeting the Kanto Army of the Great Japanese Empire!

"Old Master Dohihara, Scorpion risked his life to pass on the intelligence. The 1st Brigade of the Chinese Army's most elite anti-Japanese unit, suddenly received an order to depart, and his whereabouts were unknown!" The staff officer in charge of intelligence contact reported to Kenji Dohihara, "And, in recent times, Scorpion can no longer provide us with intelligence for at least three months!"

"I understand!" Kenji Doihara's face turned pale. These two news was simply broken and could not be broken any more!

One is that the Eastern Anti-Japanese War may have taken a major action, but it is still unclear where to target it. The second is that it temporarily loses ears and eyes. This may be a bigger blow to the Kwantung Army!

Of course, it was a day after Doihara Kenji got this news, and the message transmission was still a bit lagging behind after all!

Wang Rong's attack was not going well, so he slowed down the attack rhythm. Now he attacked, Zhang Haipeng defended, and the initiative is still in his hands!

Besides, although the Taoliao Army resisted tenaciously, the casualties caused not much for the 183rd Division. On the contrary, the Taoliao Army itself suffered quite a lot of casualties!

Overall, the attack was not achieved, but the effect was still there.

"If there were no Japanese to supervise the war, maybe we had already broken through here!" Wang Rong sighed while observing.

"Zhang Haipeng also has certain factors. This is his nest, so it is impossible for us to easily attack!" Li Yuan said.

"The headquarters lifted the order to take Taonan for 48 hours, saying that it would fight a major annihilation battle in Taonan. Chief of Staff, what do you think?"

"I think the headquarters' idea is to use Taonan to attract Japanese and puppet reinforcements, and then consume the Japanese and puppet's vitality, right?" Li Yuan thought for a moment.

"The headquarters wants to relieve the pressure on the battlefield in front of Rehe and attract some Japanese troops to come. This way, Rehe will be more difficult. Mr. Lu is really good at it. I just don't know if the generals who are in the corpse will be grateful?" Wang Rong said.
