"Yes, I will immediately send electricity to the war zone to urge food and armaments."

"Remember, let's make our situation a bit more difficult. I brought tens of thousands of officers and soldiers south to support the battle in Wuhan, and the ninth war zone should also shed some blood."

Liang Xiao said.

"Yes."

Chen Hua smiled lightly.

dawn the next day.

Liang Xiao personally led the 26th Army into the Wanjialing position, and the special warfare division was temporarily stationed 30 miles away from Wanjialing.

On the battlefield, there was smoke everywhere.

Scorched earth everywhere.

There are broken limbs everywhere.

and the bodies of soldiers killed in battle.

The morning wind was blowing coldly.

Wearing a coat and wearing leather boots, Liang Xiao walked around the battlefield accompanied by his subordinate officers.

"Report to the general, Commander Wang Yaowu of the 74th Army and Commander Wu of the Fourth Army want to see you."

The guard came running to report.

A smile flickered across the corner of Liang Xiao's mouth, and said: "Let them come over, I also happen to have something to ask them."

"Yes."

The guards rushed to invite Wang Yaowu and Wu Qiwei.

These two are the commanders who stick to the Wanjialing position, and above their heads is Xue Yue, the deputy commander of the ninth war zone.

Xue Yue deployed the battle plan at the Wuhan headquarters, and the frontline command was in the hands of Wang Yaowu and Wu Qiwei.

Wang Yaowu and Wu Qiwei fought with the 107th Division of the Japanese Army for a period of time, and they were very familiar with the combat methods and styles of the Japanese Army. When they came into contact with them, they could also know the combat style of the 107th Division.

After a while.

Two middle-aged men in general clothes came over.

Both Wang Yaowu and Wu Qiwei were wearing lieutenant general uniforms. In terms of military rank, they were almost the same. In terms of seniority, Liang Xiao was far behind.

Wang Yaowu is from the first three phases of Whampoa, and Wu Qiwei is a member of Baoding.

The two of them have been in the national army for many years, and they are incomparable to Liang Xiao.

"General Liang, after a farewell to Nanjing, the style is still the same, which makes my old Wang very envious."

Wang Yaowu resolved the embarrassment of the meeting with one word. After all, Liang Xiao was on the same rank as them, and it was inappropriate for anyone to salute the other. Rather than... embarrassment, it's better to just laugh it off.

"Commander Wang is still so forthright."

Liang Xiao smiled slightly, and immediately turned his gaze to Wu Qiwei.

What I saw was a middle-aged man in the uniform of a lieutenant general, probably in his 40s.

When Liang Xiao was looking at Wu Qiwei, Wu Qiwei was also looking at Liang Xiao.

It is said that Liang Xiao is a mighty general in the national army.

He thought that the other party had three heads and six arms, five big and three thick, but he didn't expect that the other party had beautiful features, red lips and white teeth, and a trace of extraordinary in his heroism.

"General Liang, I have long admired your name."

Wu Qiwei laughed.

"Commander Wu, Liang has also admired your name for a long time."

Liang Xiao nodded slightly and smiled.

"My Fourth Army and the No.70 Fourth Army received an order from the theater to withdraw to Wuhan to rest and hand over the position to General Liang. To be honest, we are a little unwilling. We have fought the Wanjialing Battle for so long. Handing over to you like this, neither Commander Wang nor I know how to explain to our brothers."

Wu Qiwei smiled wryly.

"Mr. Wu doesn't have to worry about it. The 107th Division on Wanjialing is well-equipped, and its combat effectiveness is not comparable to that of ordinary Japanese regular troops. If you withdraw at this time, you can also reduce unnecessary casualties. Otherwise, if you continue to fight, whoever wins will lose." It’s hard to say.”

Liang Xiao smiled faintly.

"General Liang's words are justified. With the strength of our 74th Army and the 107th Army, it is only a tie with the [-]th Division. It is embarrassing to say it. It is not that our soldiers are not working hard, nor is our equipment inferior. The Japanese army, but the Japanese army's fighting will is too strong, their charge and attack is almost desperate, but we can only carry out passive defense, and even have to guard against the Japanese aircraft attack, this battle is really useless."

Wang Yao Wu Dao.

"I heard that the 26th Army is General Liang's fortune-telling force. We are waiting for the success of the 26th Army in the battle of Wanjialing."

Wu Qiwei said sourly.

"The 26th Army belongs to the battle order of the national army, and is controlled by appointments. Commander Wu can't be said to be Liang's fortune-telling army. If others listen to it, they will think that Liang is supporting himself."

Liang Xiao said.

As soon as this word comes out.

Wu Qiwei and Wang Yaowu rolled their eyes one after another.

Whether Liang Xiao is self-respecting or not, you can tell by his behavior.

In this battle of Wanjialing, the war zone urgently ordered him to rush to help, but he just... delays and delays.

In desperation, the war zone could only agree to his request, withdraw other troops, and hand over Wanjialing to the 26th Army.

Chapter 135 Good idea

"General Liang, you got a big deal this time."

Wang Yaowu was busy playing haha.

"Commander Wang, the 107th Division on the opposite side is not a big deal, it's a tough nut to crack."

Liang Xiao curled his lips, if the 107th Division is a big advantage, then how come the two Central German Armored Armies of the national army have not been able to gain the upper hand for such a long time, and they are still being suppressed by the opponent.

"No matter how hard a bone is to chew, it will become soft in your hands."

There was a hint of flattery in Wang Yaowu's words.

"Commander Wang is too much, and Liang is just an ordinary person, not that capable."

Liang Xiao said lightly.

"General Liang's words are modest. From the Shanghai War to the Nanjing War, and the Shanghai offensive a few days ago, the Japanese army was like tofu in the hands of General Liang. It shattered when squeezed, which greatly boosted the morale of the national army. He is a role model for my generation.”

Wang Yao Wu Dao.

"Commander Wang is not bad either. From the Songhu War of Resistance to the present, the 74th Army has grown from obscurity to an iron-blooded ace army. Commander Wang has contributed a lot."

Liang Xiao rarely praised Wang Yaowu.

"General Liang praises you, Wang deserves it. Compared with your illustrious military achievements, Wang's meager military achievements are really nothing."

Wang Yaowu laughed.

Wu Qiwei, who was standing on the side, couldn't stand it any longer. These two people were too thick-skinned, and they flattered each other regardless of the occasion and location.

"Cough......General Liang, since the 26th Army has taken over the position, it has nothing to do with us, and we will not bother you."

Wu Qiwei said.

"Mr. Wu, wait a moment. Mr. Liang still has some questions that he would like to ask the two of you."

Liang Xiao said.

"General Liang, please speak frankly."

Wu Qiwei said.

"I would like to ask you two, the number of casualties of the 10th Division after these days of tragic battles, whether their shells are sufficient, what are the offensive characteristics of the 10th Division, and whether they have the habit of fighting at night"

Liang Xiao asked in one breath.

Wu Qiwei frowned.

王耀武抢先答道:“经过这些日子的战斗,74军和第四军伤亡约8000多人,伤病员约4000多人,10师团的伤亡比我们小,伤亡人数约有4000多人,伤病员应该有1000多人,目前战斗人员应该有一万8000人左右,10师团是华北战场上的日军劲旅,他们的炮弹十分充足,就我们交手的这些天,10师团的炮火从未间断过,而且,他们拥有一个联队的炮兵,从迫击炮到山炮和榴弹炮,几乎囊括了所有火炮种类.”

"The division was originally a part of the Kwantung Army, but was later transferred back to China to participate in the war of aggression against India. In the Japanese-Indian War, the 10th division swept the ten 10th reorganized divisions of the Indian side and became famous in the first battle. Since then, the 10th division has become even more famous. Arrogant, since returning to the North China battlefield, it has been used as an elite division by the North China Front Army Command of the Japanese Army. During the Taierzhuang battle, the 10th Division advanced [-] kilometers overnight, defeating the first division of the West and the two reorganizations of the Jinsui Army Master, you have a fierce reputation."

"In this battle in Wuhan, the 10th Division was regarded as an elite again. The Japanese side entrusted the important task of attacking Wanjialing to the 107th Division. The 10th Division also lived up to expectations. Pushed the battle line to the foot of Wanjialing, if we hadn't relied on the ten thousand terrain to hold on, I'm afraid that with the strength of our two armies, we wouldn't be able to defend here."

"The offensive specialties of the division, when they launch an attack, they are definitely the kind of life and death. They would rather die under the guns of our army than take a step back."

"The division is one of the few elite divisions of the Japanese army that is good at night combat. The officers and soldiers of the division are especially good at sneak attacks. At the beginning, our troops thought that the Japanese army was not good at night combat, so we almost fell into their trap."

When Wang Yaowu spoke, there was a lingering fear on his square and square face, it can be seen that the shock left by the 107th Division was still quite large.

Liang Xiao smiled slightly after listening to Wang Yaowu's words, the 107th Division is... a good opponent, let the 26th Army and the 107th Division fight a hard-to-fight war , can also test the true strength of the 26th Army.

"Thank you, Commander Wang, for letting me know."

"It's nothing, we can even give you the position, so it's nothing."

Wang Yaowu smiled honestly.

"Anyway, thank you Commander Wang. If Liang is lucky enough to defeat the 107th Division, the 74th Army and part of the Fourth Army will be credited."

Liang Xiao rarely sold a favor to them.

When Wang Yaowu and Wu Qiwei heard this, they immediately showed a little admiration for Liang Xiao. He was not greedy for merit, and he was not afraid of fighting. He was worthy of being a famous general in the War of Resistance.

"General Liang, the two of us still have to command the troops to evacuate, so there is no delay. Moreover, according to the time calculation, the attack of the 10th Division is about to start. General Liang has no time to chat with us if he wants to command the battle. Don't bother."

Wang Yao Wu Dao.

"Two walk slowly."

Liang Xiao nodded slightly.

Watching Wang Yaowu and the others leave.

He hastily summoned officers above the major general level of the 26th Army to discuss the war.

According to Wang Yaowu, the 10th Division has sufficient artillery and a high will to fight: to defeat such an elite Japanese division, relying on positional warfare is totally inadvisable.

headquarters.

Officers above the major generals of the 26th Army gathered in the simple conference room.

Liang Xiao looked at the military map and said: "The terrain of Wanjialing is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Wang Yaowu and Wu Qiwei were able to persist for so many days because of the terrain here."

"However, even if they occupy all the favorable terrain, they can't do anything to the 107th Division at the foot of the mountain. Instead, the 107th Division has repeatedly broken through the first-line positions."

"So, the 107th Division cannot be defeated by relying on passive defense. We should find a way to catch the 107th Division by surprise, let them be dazed for a few days, and then look for opportunities to annihilate them."

"General, from the humble opinion, we can send a small group of troops to infiltrate the rear of the 107th Division, blow up their material warehouses, increase their food, and leave them without guns and food. As the saying goes, people are iron , Rice is steel, if you don’t eat a meal, you will be hungry, and the little devil is also a human being, there is no bullets, gunfire, or food, so what else do they use to fight us.”

Zhou Shiji laughed.

"The idea is good, but it is very difficult to act."

Liang Xiao frowned slightly.

Chapter 136

early morning.

The sound of guns and artillery was heard from the Wanjialing position.

Under the cover of chariots, soldiers from the 107th Division of the Japanese Army launched an attack on the Wanjialing position in various positions at the foot of the mountain.

Today is different from the past. In the past, when the national army saw the Japanese attacking, they immediately shot back and even used artillery to intercept it.

But today's National Army troops are uncharacteristically, when the Japanese attacking troops attacked the position to 500 meters, there was still no movement of the National Army.

This surprised the Japanese troops. They thought that the national army had given up, so they became more and more arrogant. The vanguard soldiers rushed in front of the chariot, bared their teeth and rushed towards the position.

300 meter.

200 meter.

100 meter.

Boom boom boom.
