"Mr. Lu, the old fox is calling!"

"What's the matter?" Lu Shan frowned slightly. At this time, the old fox came to join in the fun, could it be some important information?

"About the League of Nations!" Xiao Xuedao.

"What's wrong with the League of Nations? Is there something wrong with the investigation team?" Lu Shan asked in surprise..

"No, the five countries of the United States, Britain, France, Germany and Italy requested the League of Nations to send an observation team to conduct on-site observation of the Japanese army's summer bandit suppression operation!" Xiao Xuedao.

Lu Shan was stunned. This was something that had never been seen in history. I am afraid there was no such precedent in the international community!

"Who came up with this idea?" Lu Shan didn't care whether the observation group could be established. He was concerned about the person who came up with this idea.

"It is Dr. Gu Weijun, the Chinese coordinator of the League of Nations Investigation Team!" Xiao Xue said.

"He is very creative, I'm afraid the Japanese won't agree!" Lu Shan smiled. Although his creativity is good, it may not be feasible. Japanese people do things that are inhumane and resentful. Can they let you see it and then make it clear to the world?

That's what a fool does!

"The Japanese representative to the League of Nations rejected the proposal on the spot and threatened to withdraw from the League of Nations."

"Hehe, Japan was also one of the organizers of the League of Nations back then, but now it is going to withdraw from the League of Nations, and it is slapping itself!" Lu Shan sneered. In fact, Japan is about to withdraw from the League of Nations. Once the report of the League of Nations investigation team came out, it would be meaningless for them to stay in the League of Nations.

"Lao Lu, I guess the National League Investigation Team is about to leave. The Japanese will not tolerate them staying in Manchuria again!" Ying Ruoyu said.

"This is inevitable. Since the Japanese are unwilling to stay guests, we can send an invitation!" Lu Shan suddenly said with an idea.

"We?" Ying Ruoyu was stunned.

"The Japanese rejected the National Military Observatory Group. At this time, we invited the investigation team, which helped to establish our image internationally. If we were as the Japanese promoted, how could we invite the five-country investigation team?" Lu Shan explained.

"I understand, this is a propaganda war!" Ying Ruoyu said, "The National League Investigation Team cannot come at this time. Even if they are willing, the Japanese will not agree. Our attitude is enough to defeat the Japanese slandering us."

"Yes, this is the effect I want!" Lu Shan said, "Although we are mainly fighting against the Japanese now, we cannot forget to promote our own image. Letting the Japanese slander us internationally will form an inertial understanding, which is very unfavorable to our future. [w.w.cm

"Okay, tomorrow we will send a telephone to send an invitation to the National League investigation team!" Ying Ruoyu said.

"Don't use the name of the Dongzong, but the name of the border government!" Lu Shan thought for a while.

"Yeah, OK!"

"How is Bao Jinghua and the others?" Lu Shan asked.

"The Japanese army has attacked the east coast and launched a fierce attack on the 202nd Regiment of the Third Brigade. Brigade Commander Bao ordered a resistance to withdraw from Baijiagou!" Xiao Xuedao.

"When retreating, you must stabilize the troops and not be in chaos!" Lu Shan said in a deep voice, "How about the casualties?"

"The 202nd Regiment has no casualties. The Japanese army is very strong in combat, but they have no casualties. Until now, a large group of Japanese troops has lost their combat effectiveness, and almost one regiment of the puppet army has been dispersed!"

"Where is the 212 regiment?"

"More than half of the casualties, nearly four hundred people were sacrificed!"

"There are no casualties. It's only less than a day. Bao Jinghua must pay attention to the treatment of the wounded. Transfer the wounded to the rear hospital as soon as possible." Lu Shan ordered.

"yes!"

"Old Lu, with such a large casualty from the Japanese army, it is probably difficult for Lao Bao to fight next!" Ying Ruoyu said worriedly.

"Tano Ichiro Tamayo is a Chinese expert. He knows China's national conditions very well. Therefore, if we performed too weak at the beginning, he might feel that there is a fraud in it, and instead he will advance cautiously. This will not achieve the effect of luring the enemy!" Lu Shan explained.

"But Mr. Lu, wouldn't it be better if the Japanese army felt that we were just like this?" Ying Ruoyu asked in confusion.

"We performed so well a while ago, and it has severely damaged the Kwantung Army. Although the Ninth Division does not belong to the Kwantung Army sequence, it is impossible for them to not understand us before the war begins. If they know our record, they will not easily draw conclusions about our strength!" Lu Shan said, "If our performance is too unbearable, it will cause the Japanese army to doubt it. Even if Tashi Yoichiro did not experience it personally and did not feel anything, the Kwantung Army Command behind him would not have even a sober person, right?"

"What's more, our strategic depth is not very wide, and the Meihekou is only three or four hundred kilometers away from Tonghua!" Lu Shan said, "So we must withstand the momentum of the Japanese attack and at the same time lure the enemy into depth. This sounds like a paradox, but in fact we are ready to abandon Tonghua. Just now, it is the moment when we fight the Ninth Division!"

"Mr. Lu, are we going to eat the Ninth Division?" Ying Ruoyu said.

"This is not good now. Our current military strength is not much greater than that of the Ninth Division and the puppet army. It is very difficult to eat it. Once we have the intention to eat the Ninth Division, the Japanese army will definitely send more reinforcements, and then we will face greater pressure!" Lu Shan said, "Our goal is to eliminate a part of the Ninth Division, destroy it, and defeat it, but we don't have to eat it!"

"This seems to be very difficult!" Ying Ruoyu said.

"The difficulties are certain, but as long as we take them seriously and the commander performs well, it is still possible to do it." Lu Shan was also a little worried that once the Japanese standing division was eliminated, it would be a very terrible thing for the Japanese army. Either the Japanese would truce the war or they would crazily increase their troops in Manchuria!

With Lu Shan’s understanding of the Japanese character, if the Ninth Division is severely damaged, it is likely to cause a series of political and military consequences!

But this battle must be fought. Either you die or I die. Lu Shan did not have the intention to eat the Ninth Division. If the opportunity allowed, he would give the order to eat the Ninth Division without hesitation.

But now it doesn't work. The battle has just begun, and he is not sure to praise Haikou and eat the Ninth Division.

"Report, telegram from the Third Brigade, the Japanese army has completely occupied the east bank of Lianhe River to acquire land. The 202nd Regiment retreated to Baijiagou and built a new defensive front with the 203rd Regiment!" The communications consultant hurried in and opened the folder to report.

"Oh?" Lu Shan and Ying Ruoyu looked up together and were surprised.

"It's 3:23 pm now. The 3rd Brigade stays in Baijiagou until dark, right?" Ying Ruoyu said.

"It probably won't be a big problem. Bao Jinghua reported several times that the Japanese artillery fire was fierce. It seems that they are eager to take down Meihekou, a transportation hub!" Lu Shan threw the pencil in his hand on the map, picked up a pack of cigarettes beside the table, smoked one and handed it to Ying Ruoyu, took one by himself, lit it and took a sip.

"There are more than three left before dark. If the Japanese army really wants to take Meihekou, the next battle will inevitably be extremely tragic!" Ying Ruoyu said.

"We originally planned to give up Meihekou, but in order to give the rear more time to arrange the time, we tried our best to let the 3rd Brigade stay as much as possible. In order to avoid excessive casualties, after dark, the 3rd Brigade retreated to Wujianfang East of Huifa River and the Hesheng area." Lu Shan thought for a while and said.

"In this way, wouldn't we be giving Meihekou to the Japanese army?" Ying Ruoyu said.

"Meihekou is already an empty city, and it's nothing to give it to the Japanese. What we want to know most now is whether to divide the troops or not!" Lu Shan said.

"Deputy General Lei called, a wing of the 28th Brigade of the 14th Division of the Japanese Army launched a fierce attack on Pingdingshan today, mobilized dozens of artillery to take turns to attack, and also cooperated with more than ten Japanese bombers and fighter jets to attack wildly. The 2nd Brigade of our sect was not injured or killed, and the largest number of casualties in the past few days was set, reaching more than 600 people..."

"More than 600, isn't that one-sixth of the combat power suddenly removed?" Ying Ruoyu said, "Add to the previous losses, wouldn't the casualties of the 2nd Brigade exceed half?"

Lu Shan had a heavy expression. Although the Second Training Brigade of the Second Training Brigade was not the unit he started with, the 219th Yan Yi Regiment was originally the original East Column. In order to increase the combat effectiveness of the Second Training Brigade, he transferred the Yi Regiment of the Yan Yi.

"How many casualties are there?"

"There are almost thousands of people!"

"Where are the casualties of the Japanese army?" Ying Ruoyu asked in a deep voice.

"The number of casualties in the Japanese army is less than half of ours!" The report from the communications officer made Lu Shan and Ying Ruoyu's eyes quickly gloomy.

"General Lei, he has added some veterans from the guerrillas. Then there are puppet troops captured from Liaoyang City. They have also been added in for the time being, but their combat effectiveness cannot be recovered for a while. Commander Yan was also injured and was shot on his left shoulder. However, it is not a big deal and can still command the battle, but he cannot rush to the front line!" said Zhou Yubin, an intelligence staff officer.

"Lao Lu, Lao Lei's troops are a bit weak, with tens of thousands of troops in the 14th Division, as well as garrisons and puppet troops!" Ying Ruoyu said, "You can consider transferring Deng Tiemei's 7th Brigade to the Nantianmen and Lianshan Pass to enhance Lao Lei's defense!"

"Give up Xiuyan?" Lu Shan said.

"Although Xiuyan has a good position, at present, this is just a piece of land hanging outside. Although it can threaten the Japanese army in Kanto Prefecture and also have a role in tying the Japanese army in Dandong, the actual effect is not great!" Ying Ruoyu said.

"Well, according to Lao Ying, you will transfer Deng Tiemei back to Fengcheng. A regiment will be left in Fengcheng. The remaining two regiments and a newly formed regiment will all be transferred to Benxi to strengthen the power in Lei Dong's hands!" Lu Shan nodded.

At this time, the southern line can only be based on blocking the enemy, shrinking its strength, and blocking the enemy from heading north. The battle on the northern line is crucial.

"In this way, Huang Xinghan will be under great pressure."

"I have almost given Xinghan the order to retreat to Kuandian. Lin Zhenqing's regiment has gone south to pick them up." Lu Shan said.

"That's the Japanese army from the North Korean side?"

"The Japanese army in the North Korean side will only harass and restrain us at most. If we attack across the border, we will not have too many troops. We have placed two brigades in the east, which is enough to deal with it, let alone Brother Tang is in charge of Ji'an!" Lu Shan said.
