"Takahashi, I think you should think carefully. You are the emperor who I value very much. I don't want you to take risks in this matter. Chinese·Novels." Doihara still admires Hiroshi Takahashi very much. He saw his youthful self, impulsive, passionate, and that kind of motivation.

"It is not a quality that an emperor should have when he is afraid of difficulties."

"You have to think clearly that there will be no chance like that last time. I don't want you to just die like this." Kenji Doihara said.

"You just don't have confidence in me?"

"It's not that you don't have confidence, but that you have a single-handed life and the chance of success is very small, and his command must be under strict protection." Kenji Doihara said, "If you can come in easily as my command?"

"General, although your command center is tightly defended, it is not difficult for Takahashi to come in." Takahashi said confidently.

"Is that true?" Kenji Doihara browed.

"If the general doesn't believe it, can we give it a try?"

"It's not possible today. I'm going to go to Taiyuan temporarily. Will I wait for me to come back?" Kenji Doihara nodded. He did not have an intuitive consideration of Hiro Takahashi's ability. This time it might be an opportunity.

"How many days will the general go?" Takahashi Hiroshi was surprised. At this time, Kenji Doihara actually secretly returned to Taiyuan. Is he going to leave the front line and ignore the war?

"Two days at most."

"Then we wait for the general to come back." Hiroshi Takahashi said solemnly.

"Takahashi, in these two days, I hope you don't leave Caozhou, and your people should try to do as little as possible. I will collect the information you need. In Luxi, I will do more work than you." Kenji Doihara said solemnly.

"Okay, general!" Hiroshi Takahashi nodded and agreed.

"Nothing is wrong, I'll leave first. Everything here is the same as before. I'm still in Caozhou. Do you understand?" Kenji Doihara instructed.

"Takahashi understands that he will not disclose the general's whereabouts to anyone."

"Then I'll thank you Takahashi." Kenji Doihara nodded slightly.

Yuncheng.

"Guoguang, will this personnel change in the top Japanese military leaders have any impact on our plans?"

"I hope that the top Japanese troops will not transfer Kenji Doihara, as for us, a familiar opponent will be much easier to deal with than an unfamiliar opponent."

"What if a fool comes?"

"If I were Shiichi Tetsuichi, what he needed was an obedient subordinate. Obviously, neither Kazuki Kiyoshi nor Kenji Dohihara. Kazuki Kiyoshi has been in the position of commander of the Second Army for the past year and has not been good. He is like an overhaul puppet. Shiichi Tetsuichi is too powerful and he can't compete with him. But Dohihara, the old bachelor, knew that Shiichi Tetsuichi couldn't go to the front line to command the troops himself, so what he wanted to do? Shiichi Tetsuichi wanted to interfere, and it was beyond the reach of it."

"Isn't it good to strictly follow the orders formulated by the Japanese base camp?"

"I'm not worried about this." Leng Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head. In history, the Battle of Lanfeng could have eaten most of the main forces of the Doihara Division, but in the end he was fighting like that. In the end, there was no way to use the method of breaking the dam at the Gardenkou to block the Japanese army east of the Pinghan Line.

The price is heavy.

The collapse of the Gardenkou dam was a man-made disaster. In addition to causing the 800-mile yellow area and the displacement of millions of people, it was not without realistic positive significance.

However, this is a way of playing both sides, and Leng Feng hopes not to use this step.

Leng Feng was really worried about Huang Jie and Gui Yongqing. One gave up Guide and the other abandoned Lanfeng. These two were the leaders who led to the failure of the Lanfeng Battle.

Now these two men are stationed in the two most critical places on the Longhai Line, Guide and Dangshan.

He was a little relieved about Dangshan. Qiu Qingquan was there, and the situation of the 46th Division was much better than in history. It was not easy for the Japanese army to break through from Dangshan.

If it was Guide, if Kenji Doihara was really determined to go south and put it to death, he was worried that Huang Jie might not be able to defend it.

However, judging from Kenji Doihara's current actions, he did not seem to have any plans to go south immediately.

The ideological chaos and personnel turmoil within the Japanese army were very beneficial to GJ, but the old Japanese devil, Hata Shunji, was very good at seizing the opportunity.

Leng Feng had an ominous premonition that the Chinese and Japanese troops in China might make a breakthrough on the southern front.

Leng Feng's premonition was soon realized. The Japanese Marine Corps landed in Lianyun and then captured the East China Sea. The two divisions of Fan Songpu's 46th Army who were resting in Yizhou launched an attack on the Japanese army that captured the East China Sea.

After the bloody battle between Fan Songpu's two divisions in Tancheng and Linyi, the losses were very serious, with less than 8,000 troops in the entire army. The Japanese army not only had 3,000 Marines, but also an elite night war wing of the Japanese Army transferred from the local area.

In less than half a day, he was defeated by the Japanese army.

The Japanese army then launched a fierce attack on Yizhou, and the commander-in-chief of the Fifth War Zone urgently transferred the Li Yao-level troops of the 3rd Division of the 2nd Army to rush to Yizhou.

In Linyi, the Japanese army transferred heavy artillery and tanks from Qingcheng to launch a fierce attack on Linyi. Linyi City was already overwhelmed. Although the Yunnan army fought bravely, it still failed to block the powerful artillery fire of Itagaki Seishiro.

In the evening of the day, news of the fall of Linyi came.

The Yunnan Army suffered heavy losses and was forced to move towards Taierzhuang to build a defensive position on the west bank of the Yi River.

The commander-in-chief of the Fifth War Zone immediately mobilized the 20th Corps to reinforce the Yunnan Army and stabilize the front line. At this time, the voices of opposing the evacuation from Xuzhou suddenly decreased.

The war in Xuzhou area started to burn again. This time, although the Japanese army was not as aggressive as the last time the 10th and 5th masters were in full swing, it was even more dangerous.

The troops in Xuzhou area were all tired divisions who had been in war for more than half a month, especially although the battle of Taierzhuang was won, the losses in GJ were not small, and the troops urgently needed rest. At this moment, the Japanese army mobilized elite new forces from the local area, with excellent weapons and sufficient food and ammunition.

This made the subsequent battle full of unpredictability. In fact, the Wuhan Commander and the Fifth War Zone Commander-in-Chief have made predictions and war games for the next move of the Japanese army.

The results are similar. If the Kuomintang army continues to stay in Xuzhou, not only will it not be able to defend Xuzhou, but it will also face a devastating blow.

Strategic retreat is the only option!

But unexpectedly, the Japanese army was moving very quickly, and the Japanese Navy joined in and joined in the fun, sending warships to escort the army's landing ships to land from Lianyun, and the Marine Corps also directly occupied the East China Sea.

Immediately afterwards, the offensive force in the Linyi direction was increased.

The Central China Front Army continued to increase its troops on the southern line of the Jinpu Road, and the number of troops increased. From the 6th, 9th, 11th, 101th divisions, 106th, 1116th guard divisions, as well as the puppet Manchukuo and T troops were discovered one after another.

Although these divisions are incomplete, according to the number of these scattered troops, the Japanese army on the southern front has reached 80,000, and it is still increasing.

"It is initially confirmed that the landing ship of the Japanese Army's landing transport ship Kaguawa Maru and the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet..."

"The situation is quite unfavorable to us. In Yizhou, although we recruited the 3rd Division of the Li Yao rank of the Second Army, the Japanese army was equipped with tanks and cannons, as well as aircraft support at any time and anywhere. Our equipment was not enough to resist the powerful Japanese Navy and Air Force. Therefore, the loss of Yizhou would only take three days to reach the limit..."

"Will the 9th Division be deployed in Xin'an Town?"

"Yes, Chief Li."

"Yizhou must stick to it for more than three days. We need time. We have so many troops, more than 100,000 people, and supplies and equipment, and there are too many."

"I have discussed with Leng Guoguang. His water detachment has thousands of merchant ships. We can also temporarily recruit some outgoing news. First, we will withdraw equipment and supplies to the west of Weishan Lake. He will build a temporary material reserve warehouse in Yutai on the other side." Li Delin said solemnly.

"This method is good. If you go through the water, it is safe and efficient, and it is inevitable that the Japanese bombing will be bombed."

"During the day we transfer supplies from the land terminal and at night we transfer them to Yutai, so that we can avoid bombing of Japanese planes."

"Well, this is a good method!"

"According to our calculations, it will take at least one week for the transfer of supplies and wounded people. We must hold on for a week before the Japanese army approaches. This is not an easy task."

"We can build a large number of civil fortifications in the Zaozhuang line in Taierzhuang, blocking and resisting step by step. Now there are a lot of rumors behind us that we plan to give up Xuzhou and give it to the Japanese, which is related to the morale of the people. We must fight this battle, even if we lose, we must fight." Bai Jiansheng said solemnly.

"But we fight, not to defend our lives, but to retreat and preserve our living forces. Therefore, I do not agree to fight hard. But if that army retreats without authorization, don't blame our military law for being unruly. Within the prescribed time, I must defend the position. If the person dies, I must nail it to the position!" Li Delin reminded his subordinates fiercely.

If you can't turn strategic retreat into a big defeat, it will become a big stain.

Kaifeng, the headquarters of the First Corps of East Henan.

"Sir Xue, Leng Guoguang called. He hoped that we would cooperate and put some pressure on Doihara Ken." Wu Xiqi walked into Xue Boling's office with a telegram.

"How does he want us to cooperate with them?"

"I didn't say it in the telegram." Wu Xiqi smiled bitterly. He was convinced by these two people. The telegram was full of hidden heads and tails. If he didn't explain it clearly, he insisted on the other party to guess.

These two men seemed to be competing, and they both wanted to suppress each other. However, Wu Xiqi understood that these two men were extremely smart people, and they were having fun together.

"It seems that Leng Guoguang still doesn't want Kenji Doihara to go to Guide." Xue Boling put down the book in his hand and sighed a long time.

"Why, this arm can be too big. Can't my legs be done?" Wu Xiqi asked in surprise.

"You, I didn't understand the bad water in Leng Guoguang's belly. He hoped Kenji Doihara to come to us from the beginning." Xue Boling shook his head and smiled.

"For us, what are we going to do when Kenji Doihara to us?"

"What if Leng Guoguang broke the supply line of Doihiro?"

"This is unlikely. The supply line is important. Kenji Doihara doesn't know that he will send heavy troops to garrison." Wu Xiqi said in surprise.

"Otherwise, why did Tu Feiyuan refuse to go south in Caozhou?" Xue Boling gave Wu Xiqi a blank look.

"But where did Leng Guoguang get the power to cut off the supply line of Doiheahara?"

"Not before, but now it's different. Even if the troops in his hands are fighting against Doihara, it's okay, let alone just cut off a supply line?" Xue Boling said with a smile.
