    Looking at the stars in the sky.  [.Com text] This was the first time since time travel that Yang Zhen encountered such a difficult problem. He shook his head secretly, wondering what he should do to minimize the benefits and harms.  The sound of gunfire from the southwest of Baoqing County seemed to be urging him to make up his mind.  Yang Zhen, who had always been decisive in killing, hesitated at this time.

    Just when Yang Zhen was still hesitant about what to do next, his thoughts were interrupted by the sudden burst of gunfire from Beiguan and Dongguan.  Yang Zhen was not surprised when he heard the gunfire from Beiguan and Dongguan.  The main force of the 44th Regiment has all arrived, and they will not attack from only one direction.

    Dongguan and Beiguan are the main defensive positions of Baoqing County in the northeast. The Japanese army could break through there and directly reach the foot of the city wall.  As long as the 44th Regiment has sufficient troops, it will not give up choosing these two places as breakthrough points.  The gunfire over there should be that the 44th Regiment was looking for another breakthrough.

    Yang Zhen¡¯s guess was correct, just when he was about to turn around and call to inquire.  A combat staff officer who accompanied Yang Zhen to report hurried over and saluted immediately when he saw Yang Zhen: "On the 1st, when Director Peng was inspecting the defense in Dongguan, he encountered the Japanese army. Now he is fighting fiercely with the Japanese army on the front line of Dongguan.  In addition, Director Peng reported that Beiguan has been lost and he is gathering troops to retake Beiguan. "

    Beiguan is lost?  So fast?  Yang Zhen was slightly startled after hearing the staff report.  A major support point with fortifications to rely on was lost as soon as the battle began?  There is definitely a reason for this.  Otherwise, although it is alone outside, it is further away from the county seat than Dongguan.  But how could Beiguan, which had the Naoli River as a natural barrier, be lost so quickly?

    Yang Zhen walked to the phone in a few steps, picked up the phone and called Peng Shilu directly: "Immediately find out for me how Beiguan was lost. The enemy's situation is still unknown, so don't fight back yet. You should shrink your troops immediately.  , hold on to Dongguan with all your strength, and use firepower to block the Japanese attack route from Beiguan to the county town. The most important thing is that you must immediately find out for me which part of the Japanese army is attacking you. "

    Peng Shilu said over there: "No. 1, there is no need to check. The company commander who was stationed at Beiguan was careless and neglected to be vigilant. He simply did not set up a warning position as required, and was unable to prepare himself for a surprise attack by the Japanese army. The position was destroyed  After the Japanese army was defeated, they panicked and took the lead in escaping. I have already detained this man and am preparing to ask you for instructions on how to deal with it."

    Yang Zhen didn't even think about Peng Shilu's request for instructions: "What are you asking for? According to the provisions of military law, the company commander who took the lead in the retreat was shot on the spot and the instructor was dismissed. The company was demobilized and the remaining personnel were organized and dispersed on the spot.  Join the two companies responsible for the defense of Dongguan."

    "You must be mentally prepared. If the barrier of Beiguan is lost, the Japanese army will attack Dongguan with all its strength in the next step. Dongguan is the right-wing guarantee for Jiaxinzi and the backing line. Once Dongguan is lost, Jiaxinzi's frontline will be attacked from both sides.  Danger. Remember, if Dongguan is lost, the entire Baoqing peripheral position will be shaken."

    "Dongguan is different from Beiguan. He, Jia Xinzi and Guoshan are an integral defense. It is extremely important for Jia Xinzi and Guoshan to be able to persevere. Before getting the order to retreat, Dongguan must not be lost. You don't want it first  Return to the headquarters and sit down in Dongguan to ensure the safety of Dongguan.¡±

    After hearing Yang Zhen's order, Peng Shilu said without hesitation: "No. 1, please rest assured. Before receiving the order from the headquarters to retreat, I will stick to Dongguan in accordance with the order and do my best to ensure the safety of the flanks of Jia Xinzi and the backing line.  . Even if it means fighting to the last soldier."

    Putting down the phone in his hand, Yang Zhen turned his attention to the city wall.  Beiguan was lost so quickly that it was beyond his expectation.  But Dongguan, which is more important than Beiguan, is still in hand, which makes him feel more at ease.  As long as Dongguan is defended, the most important support point of the entire Baoqing periphery is in hand.

    For the Japanese army, no matter which direction the Japanese army attacked Beiguan and Dongguan came from, as long as they wanted to seize Baoqing County, the next step must be to attack Dongguan with all their strength.  Only by taking Dongguan can they completely defeat the peripheral resistance.

    Yang Zhen¡¯s prediction was correct, and since the sound of gunfire from the direction of Dongguan, there has been almost no pause, and the increasingly dense gunfire has even proved this.  Listening to the dense sound of artillery in the direction of Dongguan, which could hardly be heard as explosive points, and there was also the sound of 75mm field guns, Yang Zhen frowned slightly.

    Judging from the sound of artillery, the Japanese artillery in the Dongguan direction was at least two artillery squadrons.  Although there are no large-caliber heavy artillery, there are complete mountain and field artillery.  From the 92nd infantry artillery and 37th rapid-fire artillery of the brigade to the 75mm mountain artillery of the regiment and the 75mm field artillery of the division.  Among them are no less than a squadron of 150mm Japanese heavy mortars.

      Judging from the sound of artillery and the explosion points of artillery shells, the shelling intensity and firepower intensity of the Japanese army in Dongguan were much stronger than those of the obviously strengthened Jiaxinzi.  Judging from the battle situation reported by Jiaxinzi on the front line, after the Japanese reinforcements arrived, the Japanese army there only added two mountain cannons and four Type 92 infantry cannons.  The density and intensity of its firepower are simply incomparable to the Japanese troops in Dongguan.  Could it be that the Japanese army attacking Dongguan was the main force of the 11th Japanese Division?

    With his eyes closed, he was silent for a long while, listening to the sound of artillery coming from the front lines of Dongguan and Jiaxinzi.  Yang Zhen still picked up the phone and called Peng Shilu, who was commanding in Dongguan, and asked: "How is the situation over there? Have you found out the organization of these Japanese troops?"

    Peng Shilu¡¯s answer on the other side of the phone was difficult to hear clearly amid the interference of dense gunfire.  It took a lot of effort for Yang Zhen to hear the answer clearly: "No. 1, the Japanese army launched attacks in squadrons as soon as they came up. Their artillery only has three squadrons of mountain and field artillery, of which the field artillery is in at least one squadron."

    "Judging from the Japanese offensive and the intensity of the artillery fire, they are very determined to capture Baoqing County in a short period of time. In just half an hour, the Japanese army has fired seven to eight hundred artillery shells at our position. Our front line  Most of the fortifications were destroyed by Japanese artillery fire. The soldiers could only rely on the ruins to resist and suffered heavy casualties. However, Dongguan was still in our hands, and the Japanese army had not yet been able to break through our frontline defenses."

    "Judging from the items and information on the body of a Japanese second lieutenant officer who died on the front line of our army, the identity of this Japanese army has been identified. It is the main first brigade of the 44th Regiment. However, judging from the scale of the Japanese offensive  , this first brigade has been strengthened by at least one squadron. I am now organizing the troops to capture the Japanese wounded as soon as possible in order to determine the true identity of the Japanese army."

    After hearing Peng Shilu's report, Yang Zhen was silent for a moment and said: "You must pay attention to artillery defense, and you must not shrink your troops together. Try to fight in close combat with the Japanese army to weaken the Japanese army's artillery advantage. And you must pay attention to your  On the flank, if the Japanese army fails in the frontal assault, it will definitely turn to your flank."

    After the 44th Regiment of the Japanese Army launched an offensive against Baoqing, the battle situation in Baoqing, which was almost the center of the entire battlefield, changed in an almost ever-changing manner.  The transformation was so fast that even Yang Zhen, who had always reacted very quickly on the battlefield, felt somewhat caught off guard.

    Just when Yang Zhen ended the call with Peng Shilu, and before he could put down the phone, a communications staff officer ran over and handed a telegram to Yang Zhen and said: "No. 1, Commander Liu called. They are in the southeast of Jinsha Gang.  A large number of Japanese troops were found in the direction of Jubao to Qingyuan and along the southwest coast of Sanhuanpao. Their strength was at least one regiment, and they carried a large number of artillery and cavalry."

    "This Japanese army that appeared north of Baoqing County not only cut off their land connection with Baoqing County with one force. It also concentrated a large group of troops at 11 o'clock just now to cover the artillery.  Then, a tentative attack was launched on the Jinsha Gang front line.¡±

    Hearing the staff officer¡¯s report, Yang Zhen walked a few steps to the map and looked at the Japanese military situation sent by Liu Changshun, which had been marked by the combat staff officer.  After looking carefully for a long time, Yang Zhen turned his head and said to a staff officer beside him: "Immediately go find Chief of Staff Xia Boxun, and send a report to the Chief of Staff, asking him to urge Ma Qichang to speed up the march. Order Ma Qichang to arrive at Qixing before noon tomorrow  "The North Bank of the River."

    When Xia Boxun, who was hurriedly summoned by the staff, arrived, Yang Zhen didn't waste any time and said straight to the point: "Immediately send a telegram to Yuan Bin to ask the aviation force to prepare for the Japanese troops from Qingyuan to Jinshagang early tomorrow morning."  Comprehensive bombing. Let him focus on it, don't bomb indiscriminately. Our troops have not been trained in ground and air cooperation, so you must be more careful when operating."

    When Xia Boxun heard the mission assigned by Yang Zhen, he felt a little excited that he had finally won the combat mission. He quickly said: "No. 1, please don't worry. I stayed with Commander Liu before arriving in Baoqing County.  With two air liaison officers and a high-power radio, we will definitely drop all the bombs on the Japanese troops and never let our own soldiers fall under our own bombs."

    Yang Zhen looked at Xia Boxun, who looked confident, waved his hand and said: "Don't rush to promise now, let's see your performance. This is the first time your aviation force has officially participated in the war. Whether you can show the style of our own aviation force will  Let¡¯s look at your performance this time. Your mission is very simple, which is to weaken the Japanese army¡¯s combat capabilities from the air to the greatest extent, especially the offensive capabilities. The location of the Sanjiang Plain is perfect for maximizing the power of your aviation forces.¡±

    "However, we must be careful not to cause excessive fatigue to the pilots. Those of you who are commanders must grasp the rhythm of the battle and do not let the pilots get too tired because of urgency."performance, resulting in unnecessary non-combat casualties.  The growth of the aviation force relies on daily accumulation bit by bit, and cannot be achieved overnight.  "

    After that, Yang Zhen pointed at the map and said: "This is the general situation and distribution of the main force of the 11th Division that Liu Changshun just sent. You go back immediately to draft a combat plan and start taking action tomorrow morning. At the same time, you must be prepared.  Be prepared to adjust your deployment at any time. Because the Japanese army does not stand still, they will adjust their deployment at any time according to changes in the situation."

    After Xia Boxun left, Yang Zhen turned his head and looked at the main position of the 11th Division on the map, but felt slightly relieved in his heart.  It seemed that Mitsuru Ushijima still couldn't get rid of the usual vanity of Japanese generals, so he still set the target of the 11th Division in Jiamusi.
