"The humble office will tell our special forces to deploy a careful arrest operation."

Chen Hua nodded slightly, and went down to make arrangements.

4 Chapter Ninety: Internal strife in our army?Okamura suspicious

That night, with the assistance of the confidential monitoring radio station, the Special Operations Brigade successfully captured three spies. After interrogation, they learned that there was a latent team of spies in Los Angeles, which was responsible for investigating the military intelligence of the national army in the city. .

This spy team does not belong to the military intelligence department, but directly belongs to the North China Front Army Command. Their information is first sent to the North China Front Army Command by radio, and then forwarded by the Front Army Command to the front-line combat troops, that is, Ning Okamura. There was no direct telegram exchange between the First Army, the spy team and Neiji Okamura.

Liang Xiao immediately ordered the Special Operations Brigade to arrest all the spies, and then forged a telegram for the spies to send to the North China Front Army Command in the same way.

The content of this forged telegram is as follows: the enemy’s 26th Army is suspected of internal strife, the factions in the first theater are strife, the merchant group army refuses to accept Liang Xiao’s jurisdiction, and the relationship with Liang Xiao has deteriorated. Hope that the headquarters will send people to instigate rebellion against the Shang and Tang departments.

In this way, the North China Front Army will inevitably send a telegram to the front-line commander Neiji Okamura. With Neiji Okamura's cunning, he will definitely not believe the telegram completely, and he will send troops to attack and test it. If he disagrees with Liang Xiao, there will definitely be a reaction.

Liang Xiao never puts all eggs in one basket.

On the side of the 1st Division Tang Yongliang, he did not hold much hope. Success is gratifying, but failure is also reasonable. After all, the devil commander opposite is not an ordinary person. He is the most cunning commander of the North China Front Army, Neiji Okamura. As a general, Liang Xiao would prefer to fight against a general like Ushijima Misō from the [-]th Division. Of course, there are not many generals as stupid as Ushijima in the Japanese army.

...It was as expected by Liang Xiao.

After Okamura Neiji received the telegram from the front army, he immediately dispatched two infantry regiments to attack the outer positions of the Shang and Tang armies.

Outside Los Angeles, there was already a swamp, and Japanese soldiers attacked step by step in the heavy rain.

The Shang and Tang tribes fought independently and did not support each other.

Tang Enbo's artillery fire only hit the enemy in front of him, but ignored the enemy in front of Shang Zhen's position.

As a result, the doubts in Ningji Okamura's heart gradually faded away. It seemed that the Central Army and the local army in Los Angeles were full of contradictions, as reported by the Front Army Command. Moreover, Tang Enbo's Central Army and Commander Liang Xiao's Central Army Seemingly at odds:, moreover, Liang Xiao's trump card 26th Army has internal strife, which is a good time to win Los Angeles in one fell swoop.

It's just that his two divisions are about to run out of food this afternoon. The troops who went to the nearby villages to grab food found nothing, but the troops...brought back a lot of corn stick.

The corn cobs in this season are not yet fully ripe, but they can be boiled and eaten, or the corn kernels can be picked off the cobs and cooked into polenta, plus the potatoes and sweet potatoes that the troops picked from the land of the surrounding villages , temporarily can make do with a day or two.

It is estimated that it will take two or three days to transport the heavy troops.

Neji Okamura hesitated again and again, and finally decided not to withdraw his troops, but to continue the siege. He believed that the heavy rain would pass soon, and his heavy equipment troops would catch up by then, and it was time for the general attack on Los Angeles.

Moreover, Tang Yongliang, who has already instigated the 141st division, is the capable person he sent, but the conditions put forward by Tang Yongliang made him very embarrassed. If Tang Yong is turned against him and cooperates with the outside, the enemy's outer positions will be vulnerable. He only needs to concentrate the main force to destroy Tang Enbo's troops first, and then attack the city to encircle and wipe out Liang Xiao's 26th Army.

In the city.

Liang Xiao watched the dark clouds gradually dissipate in the southeast direction, with a heavy expression on his face.

If he guessed correctly, the heavy rain in the Central Plains will soon pass.

After the heavy rain, there must be sunshine after the rain.

At that time, there will be a fierce battle in Los Angeles. With Neiji Okamura's temperament, he will not miss such a good opportunity for nothing, and why would he miss this good opportunity to severely injure the Japanese army.

The recruits from the Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou area have already arrived in Los Angeles, and have been incorporated into the 26th Army, and the cavalry regiment has also been formed.

"Boss, good news."

Chen Hua came over with a light smile, and said: "The Northern Bureau sent a telegram that the action team in Jindi successfully rescued the parents of Mr. Tang Yongliang of the 141st Division at the cost of the lives of three members. At present, the Northern Bureau has Send Mr. Tang's family members to the Kuomintang-controlled area."

"It's a good thing."

Liang Xiao said with a smile: "Send a telegram to Dai Yunong for me. He did a pretty good job. Tang Yongliang was on the front line for the party and the country. His family was captured by the Japanese army. Naturally, we can't just ignore it."

"The Northern Bureau is still there: the telegram said that they have figured out a way to hide it from the Japanese army for two or three days. If the general has any arrangements, please make arrangements within these two or three days. Once the time passes, the Japanese army will find out what Master Tang is doing." The family was rescued."

Chen Huadao.

"The Northern Bureau is very thoughtful."

Liang Xiao said slowly: "Tang Yongliang is pretending to be a snake with the devil spies. Now it seems that there is no need to continue playing hide-and-seek with the devil spies. It's time to have a showdown with the devils."

"General, do you need to invite Mr. Tang here?"

Chen Huadao.

"No need, the ghost spies are in his division headquarters. It's a little eye-catching for him to come to me as a division commander of the Jin army. You go and invite Shang Zhen, the commander of the [-]th Army, and his cooperation is needed for this matter."

Liang Xiao said.

"Yes."

Chen Hua turned and left.

after an hour.

Shang Zhen was dressed in the uniform of a lieutenant general and came to the headquarters in an officer's overcoat.

He didn't have much respect for Liang Xiao, he reluctantly gave a military salute as soon as he entered the door, and said: "Commander Liang, what do you want from Shang?"

"Commander-in-Chief, please sit down."

Liang Xiao asked him to sit down with a smile, and ordered the guards to pour a cup of tea for Shang Zhen, and said with a smile, "I invite you to come here today, because I want to talk to you about the strategy of defeating the enemy."

Shang Zhen looked at Liang Xiao suspiciously, the so-called abnormality must have a demon, it was the first time he received Liang Xiao's courtesy, he couldn't believe it in his heart.

After all, Liang Xiao gave him a too strong impression in the past, let alone a cup of tea, even... a glass of water, he has never drank it.

"Isn't the strategy of defeating the enemy determined a long time ago? Why does the commander in chief need to discuss with me? You can just order anything."

Shang Zhen became vigilant in his heart, for fear that Liang Xiao would sell his [-]th Army Group. After all, he was fighting with the Central Army, so he had to be vigilant. In previous battles, he had suffered from the Central Army. .

Chapter 491 Before the Great War, Talk Separately

"It's like this. The family of Tang Yongliang, the commander of the 14th division, was arrested by the devils in Jindi and has been rescued by the action team of the Northern Bureau of the Military Command. Neji Okamura doesn't know about this news. He is sending people to actively instigate Tang Yongliang. I let Tang Yongliang temporarily The people sent by Okamura Ningji pretended to be snakes, and now the time has come. Tang Yongliang pretended to surrender to the enemy and induced Okamura Ningji to send troops to attack our army's position. Then Tang Yongliang turned his back and formed a full-scale attack with our army. In this way, Neiji Okamura will definitely lose."

Liang Xiao said.

After he finished speaking.

Shang looked at him in shock and fear.

Unexpectedly, without his knowledge, Liang Xiao hooked up with the generals under him. This is not a good thing for him as the commander in chief of the group army.

"Commander Liang, how did you know that Tang Yongliang's family was captured by devils?"

Shang Zhen asked.

"Liang is the director of the Southern Bureau of the Military Command, and this information can still be obtained."

Naturally Liang Xiao would not tell him the truth, after all it was related to Tang Yongliang's future in the Jin army.

"Tang Yongliang actually hid such a big matter from me. Does he still take me, the commander of the group army, seriously?"

Shang Zhen was furious that Tang Yongliang was so close to Liang Xiao. You must know that Tang Yongliang was a member of the Jinsui Army, and he had close contacts with the generals of the Central Army. Even he was kept in the dark.

"Commander-in-Chief Shang, don't be angry. I told Master Tang not to mention this matter to anyone. After all, this matter is the key to our army's victory over the Japanese army. If you speak out rashly, it may cause unnecessary trouble."

Liang Xiao laughed and said, "If Commander-in-Chief Shang is not relieved, why not get angry at me?"

Shang Zhen snorted coldly, Liang Xiao's words were better than his singing, did he dare to attack the enemy commander if he was angry?

"Commander Liang, I don't want this kind of thing to happen again in the future. Even if it's to beat devils, at least you shouldn't avoid me, the commander of the group army."

Shang Zhen said.

"You don't have to worry about this, it's only this one time, and the next time will not be an example."

Liang Xiao laughed.

"For Commander Liang's sake, I will spare him this time."

Shang Zhen asked: "Commander Liang asked Tang Yongliang to pretend to join the enemy, do you want me to support him?"

"Commander-in-Chief Shang meant exactly this. When Tang Yongliang's troops pretended to surrender to the enemy, the Japanese army would definitely send some troops to attack your and Tang Enbo's positions, so that you would have no time to worry about Tang Yongliang's defection. At the same time, the Japanese army would send some troops If you want to send a unit to Tang Yongliang's position, your left wing will be completely exposed to the guns of the Japanese army, and will be attacked by the Japanese army from the front and the left wing, and your outer positions will not last long."

"You mobilize part of your troops to ambush on the outskirts of Tang Yongliang's position. Once the devils enter Tang Yongliang's position, I will order the engineers to detonate the ambushed mines and explosives, and let the devils who enter Tang Yongliang's position drink a pot. After that, all of you will attack quickly. Under the cover of tanks and armored vehicles, annihilate the Japanese army that entered Tang Yongliang's position first."

"After Tang Yongliang turns his back on the water, he will turn his guns inside and charge towards the devil troops attacking in front of you. You must control the troops well. Once Tang Yongliang attacks the devils, the rest of the troops in the front position must attack head-on and charge towards the devils. , I will order the Tang Legion to outflank the devil's flanks and rear, come on, the Japanese army attacking the outer positions of Los Angeles will be the turtle in the jar."

Liang Xiao confided his battle plan in its entirety.

After Shang Zhen heard this, he nodded again and again. The plan was really good. First, he would attract some devils to Tang Yongliang's position, then detonate landmines and explosives, blowing Tang Yongliang's position into a sea of ​​flames, and then send troops to attack from the rear of the position. , this army of devils has no chance of surviving.

Tang Yongliang's counter attack after withdrawing from the position will inevitably lead to chaos in the devil troops attacking our frontal position. At that time, all the national troops defending the outer positions will press on the whole line and surround the devil from three sides with the advantage of force. , the devil will return in defeat.

"Commander-in-chief Liang arranged very carefully. I have a feeling that our army will be able to flee in embarrassment in this battle. This battle is also a battle for our Jinsui Army to wash away its shame. Shang will fight with our Jinsui Army Soldiers are going to the battlefield together, Commander-in-Chief Liang please wait for the good news.”

Shang Zhen said.

"Liang hopes that Commander-in-Chief Shang can display the prestige of the Jinsui Army outside Luo City, and don't disappoint Commander-in-Chief Yan who is in Jindi."

Liang Xiao said.

"The old commander is indeed disappointed with our performance on the battlefield, but this will soon change."

Shang Zhen said confidently.

...later.

Liang Xiao sent someone to invite Tang Enbo over.

Although Tang Enbo's character is not very good, and the military discipline of his subordinates is lax, but this battle still requires his troops to support him from the side.

Tang Enbo, wearing the uniform of a lieutenant general, came to the headquarters of the [-]th Army Group.

"Hello, Commander-in-Chief Liang."

Tang Enbo salutes when they meet each other. According to his words, the salute cannot be discarded. After all, Liang Xiao is a three-star general. Even if he is a general with a military rank, he is also his superior.

"Commander Tang is here, please sit down."

Liang Xiao smiled and asked him to sit down:.

"Don't dare to be in a humble position. There is no place for a humble position in front of the commander-in-chief. If you have something to do, just order it."

Tang Enbo was very respectful on the surface, but he was very disdainful in his heart. In his opinion, Liang Xiao's qualifications were... a big flaw. Even though his military rank was not as high as his, after all, he was half as good as him when he was in the Whampoa Military Academy. an instructor.

"Commander Tang doesn't need to be restrained, just sit down and talk."

Liang Xiao asked someone to make a cup of tea for Tang Enbo.

"Thank you Commander-in-Chief for your seat."

Tang Enbo took off his military cap and sat up straight.

"Commander Tang Jun, we were a little unhappy before, but it was all for fighting devils, I hope you can understand."

Liang Xiao said with a sneer.

"The commander-in-chief was joking, there is no disagreement between us. You are a superior, and the humble one is a subordinate. If you have any orders, the humble one will just listen..."

Tomb said.

"Well, let me just say it straight. I put a smoke bomb on Neiji Okamura. It is estimated that Neiji Okamura will attack the outer positions on a large scale in the past two days. I hope that Commander Tang can hold his position. Once the situation changes If there is a change, immediately break out from the city defense position and cut off the retreat of Okamura Neiji's troops."

Liang Xiao said.

"Tang is stupid, and he still doesn't understand what the commander-in-chief said. What kind of smoke bomb did you put on Neji Okamura, and why did he attack on a large scale? You know, his heavy equipment has only arrived outside the city in the past few days. Isn't it better to fight when the equipment arrives?"

Tang Enbo asked.

Chapter 492 Shut Up Tang Enbo's Mouth

"Ningji Okamura can't wait any longer. He is a veteran in the battlefield and knows the truth of fleeting fighters."

Liang Xiao said.

Tang Enbo was suspicious in his heart, seeing that Liang Xiao was unwilling to say more, he couldn't continue to ask, after all, he was the commander.

"Commander, don't worry, as long as the devil's situation is not good, I will send troops according to the battlefield situation."

Tang Enbo played word games with Liang Xiao. He said that he would send troops according to the situation on the battlefield. This sentence was equivalent to finding a way out for himself in advance. When something went wrong, he could also shift the responsibility to other things. Anyway ...He has already mastered this kind of Tai Chi technique.

"Commander Tang, when the devils attack, I will lead the former enemy headquarters to your headquarters and direct the city defense battle. Do you have any objections?"

Liang Xiao's expression suddenly turned cold. Tang Enbo, a bastard, still wanted to get credit for his subordinates, but he had no way of doing it. The troops fighting under him were not divided into relatives, and there was no central army or local army.

"Commander Liang, isn't this bad?"

Tang Enbo was 1 unhappy, but he had nothing to do with Liang Xiao. After all, he was the deputy commander of the war zone and the former commander-in-chief of the enemy. His words were equivalent to military orders.

"It's nothing bad. When the battle starts, what's the matter with me, the former commander-in-chief of the enemy, staying in the city?"

Liang Xiao waved his hands.
