    "What's the mess? I understand luring the enemy deep, but are you planning to lure that enemy?" Zhang Hao asked in confusion.

    Zhang Tengjiao laughed loudly and said: "Of course it is the 35th Division of the Japs. We have fought against this Japs unit before when we were in southern Hebei. The division commander Harada Xiongji is a hot-tempered guy. Once that bastard  When we get to the front line, we will definitely find ways to take the initiative to attack. When the time comes, we will use a flaw to lure the GouRi to the front line of Gaomiaozi. What do you think we have the probability of annihilating all the GouRi."

    "Will you be fooled?" Zhang Hao asked.

    ¡°If it¡¯s an ordinary person, maybe not, but if it¡¯s Harada Kumayoshi, the probability is still very high!¡±

    "If the opponent really goes deep alone, the probability of annihilating the Japanese army is much higher. Once the opponent is lured to Gaomiaozi Township, the distance between you and Zhangjiakou City will be more than one hundred kilometers. One hundred kilometers.  Even if we rush on a forced march, it will take more than ten hours to arrive. We can definitely eat the 35th Division before the Japanese reinforcements arrive."

    "Then how can we ensure that the Japs will take the initiative to attack us and follow us to pursue the Gaomiaozi area?"

    "Haha, then we need to cooperate with Gou Ri to put on a show!"

    "Acting?"

    "Yes, the Japanese and puppet troops have deployed multiple blockades along the line from Wanquan to Zhangjiakou. Dozens of bridges and passes, large and small, have been turned into military bunkers by the little devils. I don't think Ganpa Jutaro's head was  If the donkey kicks, it will occupy all the commanding heights. If we calculate carefully, our attempt to conquer Zhangjiakou is no less than Monkey King's Journey to the West."

    "Then Zhang Tengjiao continued: "The little devil has set up nine or eighty-one difficulties for us, and the purpose is to consume our vitality. If we don't follow others' wishes, then we won't be able to live up to their arrangements."

    Everyone present was a smart person, and they immediately understood what Zhang Tengjiao meant!

    "Master, you mean that we take the initiative to attack the Japanese defense line, causing the illusion of heavy casualties, and then lure the Japanese army to counterattack, and then withdraw?" Zhang Hao said in a deep voice.

    "Hahaha, how about I tell you, Lao Zhang, that you suit my taste and I will understand it as soon as I explain it to you?"

    Zhang Hao thought about it carefully and said, "I think it's okay, but it's not easy for the troops to perform the show well!"

    "It's easy, just order the troops on the front line to work hard!" Zhang Tengjiao said.

    "If we really fight, it will be difficult to control the casualties of the troops!"

    "There will be immortals in the war. Compared with attacking Zhangjiakou, if we destroy the 35th Division first, the remaining Japanese and puppet troops may not need our attack. Do you think which one is more cost-effective?"

    Hearing Zhang Tengjiao's words, Gao Hu and Zhang Hao both nodded, and then said: "Master, give the order!"

    "Well, order the first brigade to be the main offensive force in the direction of Wanquan, and strictly order them to capture the Japanese and puppet army positions to the west of Wanquan County within one day, and Wanquan County within three days!"

    "yes!"

    "Move all the artillery and air defense troops to the front line and cooperate with them to fight. We have to bring out our wealth in this battle. This is called being reluctant to let go of the child without trapping the wolf!" Zhang Tengjiao said.

    "yes!"

    Dividing line

    Wanquan. The Japanese army formed an independent eighth brigade headquarters.

    The entire Wanquan County has been put under martial law by the Japanese army. All the people in Kongjiazhuang Town, where the county is located, have been issued a death order not to go out. If they disobey, they will be punished as collaborators.

    The tense atmosphere not only put great pressure on the people in the city, but also made the Japanese army feel uneasy, including Major General Yoshida Minetaro, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army in Wanquan County.

    Yoshida is the commander of the 8th Independent Mixed Brigade of the Japanese Army. They were originally stationed near Peiping. However, after receiving news of tense situations in Zhangjiakou, they were transferred to Zhangjiakou by Neji Okamura.

    After receiving the order, Yoshida's troops marched overnight and took a train to reach Zhangjiakou in one night.

    As soon as the troops got off the bus, they were dispatched by Ganpa Jutaro to Wanquan, the forefront of the battle, and Yoshida Minetaro was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the front, responsible for commanding the 8th Brigade and the more than 2,000 Japanese puppet troops near Wanquan.

    The original Wanquan Garrison Headquarters was brightly lit at this time, and the huge combat headquarters was crowded with people, and all the people coming in and out were officers.

    Next to the terrain sand table, Yoshida Minetaro, who looked slightly tired, rubbed his sore eyes and asked in a deep voice: "Kameda-kun, what happened to that unit?"

    Head of the Secret Service of the Military Garrison in MongoliaThe person in charge, Colonel Jiro Kameda, knew His Excellency Yoshida's temper and said hurriedly: "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, that unit has been infinitely close to the first line of defense of the Imperial Army. Today, news came from our search team that they have seen it.  The army¡¯s camp.¡±

    "In that case, you should also have a clear idea of ??the situation of the enemy on the opposite side!"

    "Hai!"

    Then Jiro Kameda said again: "According to our investigation, the army/that army on the opposite side is affiliated to the 177th Division, one of the three main forces of the Jiuji Army. This division was originally affiliated with the combat sequence of the Shaanxi Army in Showa 16  It was placed under Li Guoyao's command in 2011. So far, it is one of the three Class A divisions under Li Guoyao's command and has very strong combat effectiveness."

    "The division's top commander is named Zhang Tengjiao. According to the information we collected, this person was just a small infantry platoon leader before the war broke out in Showa 12, with limited cultural quality and no systematic military education.  All commanding abilities come from practice, and overall their level is average. The situation of Deputy Division Commander Gao Hu and Chief of Staff Zhang Hao is similar. Te Gaoke's evaluation of this unit is that it has a strong will to fight, but lacks flexibility, and the overall threat is not very great.  ."

    "What is the strength of this unit? Does it have any organic technical arms, such as artillery?" Yoshida Minetaro asked again.

    "Reporting to the brigade commander, the 177th Division is one of the three main forces under Li Guoyao's command. According to the regulations of the Chinese government army for Category A divisions, the entire division has three brigades under its jurisdiction, and each brigade has three regiments under its jurisdiction. The total strength  Between 10,000 and 13,000 people. As for the technical arms, there must be at least a cavalry battalion, an artillery battalion and an engineer battalion, plus the guard troops, their strength cannot be underestimated." Kameda Jiro replied.

    "Yo Xi, so our opponent is not weak!"

    "Hai!"

    At this time, Minetaro Yoshida took a sip of cold tea, turned to the Chief of Staff Lieutenant Colonel Mano and asked: "Mano-kun, are our troops ready? Li Guoyao's army is not an ordinary one.  We must not take it lightly!¡±

    "Please rest assured, brigade commander, we are ready!" Lieutenant Colonel Mano said hurriedly.

    "Relax? Haha, I can't rest assured. Do you know that the number of imperial generals who have been lost to Li Guoyao's troops in just a few years has exceeded double digits? I don't want my name to appear in the list.  Do you understand what is in the opponent's war record?" Yoshida Minetaro said in a deep voice.

    "Hai! Please rest assured, brigade commander, although the distance between Huai'an and Wanquan County is only 30 kilometers, it is an insurmountable chasm for the enemy. Our troops have deployed five brigades on this line.  The main force of the army, and two infantry regiments of the Imperial Association Army were also deployed. Not counting the two thousand elites in the county, there are more than 7,000 people stationed on this line."

    Then Lieutenant Colonel Mano said again: "In addition, this line has a total of 7 bridges, 11 hills and a defense line composed of two trenches and bunkers. If that person wants to attack by force, the price they will pay is unimaginable."

    "How long can we hold on if we support that person's attack?" Yoshida Minetaro asked again.

    "You can't say for sure. It depends on the strength of the troops and the status of the weapons and equipment. If the opponent does not have established artillery and the vitality to suppress the bunkers, even investing 100,000 people will be useless."

    "Baga, we have been fighting with Li Guoyao's troops for such a long time. Don't you still know whether the other party has organized artillery?" Yoshida Minetaro said angrily.

    "Hai, if the enemy uses organic artillery, then with 10,000 troops, the imperial army can hold on for at least a week. If the opponent invests more than 30,000 troops, and there are many troops  If we attack on the road, our unit can only hold out for three days at most!" Lieutenant Commander Mano said hurriedly.

    "Yoshi, you must remember that when dealing with Li Guoyao's troops, you must not be too ambitious, you must be down-to-earth. Once you drift, you are not far from death!" Yoshida Minetaro said in a deep voice.

    "Hai!"

    "Although the current situation is still very favorable for the Imperial Army, we must not be careless. The force we are facing is the elite of the first detachment of the Imperial Japanese Army to launch the main counterattack. To fight with such a force, we must  They are placed at the same height as ours!"

    "Hai!"

    "But you don't need to worry. This battle is both a challenge and an opportunity for us. As long as we can perform well in this offensive and defensive battle, the base camp will upgrade our unit to a C-class division as appropriate. By then  The benefits are huge!" Yoshida Minetaro said.

    "Hai!"
