Chapter 507: Fight, Fight Again
Ye Feng remembered the 40th and 52nd Divisions of the mountain city very well. They were engraved in his heart.
In the history of his previous life, the "Southern Anhui Incident" that shocked the whole country was initiated by these two divisions. They carried out a bloody encirclement and suppression of the Fourth Front Army, which also belonged to the Anti-Japanese United Front, resulting in the deaths of a large number of underground party fighters.
"Xiaolu, send a telegram to Shanghai and have Zhou Dashan's troops, who have already moved westward, move immediately towards the 40th and 52nd Divisions in Shancheng. Cooperate with Commander Ye to quickly eliminate these two divisions, and then send troops to support Hefei."
"Inform Zhou Qingshan's troops to wait for an opportunity on the flank. As soon as the enemy forces press forward, they should rush out immediately to form a pincer attack. Tell Comrade Zhou Qingshan that the Japanese have a super genius commander named Kokuno Saburo, who is very cunning and flexible in tactics. Don't engage in close combat. We must make full use of our grenade advantage. Let him formulate a battle plan for the specifics."
"In addition, send an urgent military message to Comrade Song Yu in Nanjing, Jiangsu, and ask him to lead his troops to retreat, not to engage in a fierce battle with the Japanese troops in Nanjing, and to wait for the development of the battle in Anhui."
"Send a telegram to Captain Zheng Hua of Shou County and Captain Li Aiguo of Huainan, asking them to hold the two cities and only engage in defensive battles. They must not attack to meet the enemy. This is a death order and must be carried out unconditionally."
This is the current situation in the three provinces of Shanghai, Jiangsu and Anhui.
In Shanghai.
Brigade Commander Zhou Dashan has been recruiting a large number of new soldiers and conducting emergency training in Shanghai and its surrounding areas over the past month. He has assembled a team of 9000 people, consisting of three regiments, which set out from Shanghai and headed west to support the Anhui battlefield.
In Jiangsu.
The team led by Regiment Commander Song Yu blocked the outside of Nanjing City, facing the Japanese army from a distance. The two sides have not yet engaged in major fighting.
However, because Ye Feng had led his team to continuously capture cities and strongholds in Jiangsu and recovered countless towns and counties, most of Jiangsu is now under the control of the underground party's anti-Japanese armed forces.
Finally, Anhui.
Ye Feng and his men currently control Shou County, Huainan, and Hefei, which is equivalent to recovering one-sixth of Anhui.
The Japanese army did not sit idly by and wait for death. They assembled tens of thousands of troops and launched a counterattack. The war was about to break out.
The troops in the mountain city also took the opportunity to get involved and try to seize territory.
It can be said.
The situation in Anhui is now the most chaotic. Whoever can win this battle will be able to quickly control the entire Anhui territory like a thunderbolt.
According to Ye Feng's plan, he would completely recover Anhui, then march northward to capture Nanjing in one fell swoop and recover the entire Jiangsu.
Thus.
It will form a "Shanghai-Jiangsu-Anhui Base Area" controlled by the underground party's anti-Japanese armed forces, which will echo the "Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Base Area" in the northwest.
As combat orders were issued one after another, the entire Hefei area became tense and a major war was about to begin.
Two days later.
The team led by Ye Feng fought a head-on offensive and defensive battle with the Japanese army outside the city of Hefei.
The anti-Japanese armed forces retreated, leaving behind hundreds of corpses.
The Japanese also lost nearly an infantry regiment of 2000 people in this battle, a casualty rate of nearly 1:5.
Then, ten kilometers away from Hefei City, a fierce battle broke out between the two sides again.
The Japanese went crazy in this battle, using all kinds of terrifying weapons and firepower to rush towards Ye Feng and his men's positions without regard for their lives.
In addition, the Japanese also used a flanking tactic, with two surprise attacks from both sides, almost wiping out Ye Feng and his men.
A team of more than 3000 people were almost wiped out in this battle. Even if Ye Feng was a god descending to earth and started a killing mode, he could not stop the crazy attack of the Japanese. Hefei was in danger.
crucial moment.
Zhou Qingshan's 1-man force was deployed to the battlefield, attacked from the flank, and almost wiped out the Japanese rear command post in one wave of attack, forcing the enemy's main force to turn around and fight back.
Ye Feng also led the remaining thousand or so soldiers and launched a tenacious counterattack.
Ye Feng, in particular, once again gave his all. After half a day of fierce fighting, he turned into a tireless killing god of death, rushing around, covered in blood, trampling on the corpses and blood of the enemies, and defeated a Japanese regiment. The number of enemies he killed himself was more than a thousand.
On the Japanese side.
After the chaos, they immediately launched an offensive and defensive operation, attacking and defending at the same time with an attitude of fighting to the death.
The two sides were outside the city of Hefei.
The most chaotic and fierce fighting took place in an area of hundreds of miles in radius. Nearly 40,000 people from both sides were killed, and corpses were scattered all over the ground. The mountains and rivers changed color, and large areas of land were dyed red with blood.
Ye Feng and the Japanese soldier Saburo Kou also used the tactics of war to the extreme, and the two sides were in a tit-for-tat situation.
The Japanese relied on group discipline, advancing in waves, attacking in waves, keeping strict records, and fighting without fear of life or death.
Ye Feng adopted the concept of avoiding the strong and attacking the weak to annihilate the enemy in mobile warfare. He also gave full play to his combat effectiveness as a super agent, breaking through the surface with a single point, and led the troops to victory with his own number of kills.
of course.
Because of the low individual combat quality, while destroying the enemy, they also suffered heavy losses.
Another night falls.
Amid a pile of rocks with a strong smell of blood, commanders from various units were reporting information on casualties.
"Damn it! These little Japanese soldiers are really tough. More than 60% of them have been killed, but they haven't collapsed yet."
Brigade Commander Zhou Qingshan complained, "Now both sides have run out of artillery shells and grenades. The battlefield is filled with gunfire. The Japanese no longer have the firepower advantage. Next, we must destroy them all."
Zhou Qingshan's appearance in Hefei was the result of discussions with Commander Ye at that time. They joined together and fought several battles with the Japanese army in Wuhu. Due to supply problems and the enemy's encirclement, the situation became increasingly unfavorable, so they decided to split their forces to break out. One part moved to Shanghai to join forces with the new recruits in Shanghai; the other part moved closer to Ye Feng to guard against the Japanese counterattack.
Ye Feng looked at everyone and asked, "Do you think the Japanese army will have other reinforcements?"
The head of the regiment, Xiao Jiguang, said, "It's unlikely. In Anhui, we are not the only ones fighting here. There are Japanese troops attacking Shou County and Huainan. There are more than 2 devils in the two battlefields. Where do they get the extra troops?"
Ye Feng pointed at the map, "Where is this place?"
His hand was placed in the Guangdong and Guangxi regions. Then Ye Feng continued, "The devil like Xiaoquan Saburo has a high opinion of himself and is very calculating. Without absolute certainty, he will not easily launch a counterattack against Hefei. He must have a backup plan."
According to Ye Feng's estimation.
The Japanese army could probably gather about 1 troops and enter Anhui from the south.
Zhou Qingshan said, "If our support troops in Shanghai and General Ye's troops can quickly deal with the 40th and 52nd Divisions in Shancheng, we can quickly support the Hefei battlefield."
Ye Feng looked aside and asked, "General Ye's Department, has there been no intelligence recently?"
Xiaolu, who was in charge of the radio, replied, "Division Commander, two days ago, General Ye sent a telegram saying that the two divisions of the Shancheng Army were taking a tough stance and were unwilling to give in. They had decided to go to war directly."
One division of the Shancheng troops has about 1 people, and two divisions have 1 people.
The Fourth Front Army led by Commander Ye, plus 1 troops supported by Shanghai, had a total strength of 2.
The military strength of both sides is similar.
But the commander is different. Ye Feng can be sure that Commander Ye has more than 90% chance of winning.
Ye Feng was certain that the Southern Anhui Incident that shocked the whole country in his previous life would never happen again.
"Commander, the Japs are coming again." The messenger ran over and shouted.
"beat!"
"Drive the Japanese out of Anhui."
Ye Feng picked up his gun and continued to fight with the soldiers who were covered in mud and blood.
