Beiyang 1917

Chapter 890 The Ambition of the Chief of Staff

() Although Liu Yifei, the 26-year-old battalion commander, didn't even have time to get the graduation certificate of the Baoding Army Military Academy, but this guy's complicated experience and personal connections are quite good, not to mention, as a child of Liaoning Tieling, this guy He was supported and recommended by Zhang Zuolin, and he also had a good relationship with Guo Songling, who had already become the Deputy Military Affairs Office of the 5th Province and the commander of the participating army. He was able to become the battalion commander of the 2nd Armored Battalion in the participating army like a fish in water. Not too much at all...

Of course, in the 1st Armored Regiment, Lu Huanyan is in charge, and everyone else has to be a dragon or a tiger. Battalion Commander Tao Dayong and Battalion Commander Li Shang of the 2rd Battalion are Lu Huanyan's loyal loyalists, but Tao Dayong and Li Shang do not deal with each other very much. Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Expecting everyone to be kind and friendly, hello, and me is a delusion at all... ..

Uniting under the banner of the warring army created by the king of China, defending the home and defending the country is the highest pursuit of every new Chinese soldier, but such things as houses, money, women, money, and seals have never come from everyone's own goals. So much less...

"According to the feedback from the reconnaissance aircraft of the coalition air force, the German reinforcements along the railway line are at least 2 main infantry regiments, and there are also 3 105mm howitzer battalions... The combat effectiveness must not be underestimated. The opponent also has one on the railway line. The strength and firepower of the two iron-clad trains of the Iron-Armored Detachment..." The head of the regiment, Lu Huanyan, spoke with a dignified tone...

"It's really hard to handle... But the regiment commander, the task given to us by the headquarters is to eat up the remaining three Ukrainian infantry divisions in the forest, not to ask us to forcefully attack the main force of the German army. I analyze that the two infantry regiments coming up from the other side are very likely It is the main force of the 2th Reserve Infantry Division under the command of Major General von Neuhaus, and the opponent is coming out in full force this time to catch us by surprise... I only hope that Major General Muto can withstand the opponent after shrinking the main force!" Chief of Staff Ren Dao’s tone was not easy either. ..

"Regimental Commander, Chief of Staff, if you want me to say it's not a big deal, just stay overnight, and the coalition air force will attack again after dawn tomorrow, and it is guaranteed to turn the opponent's bombers on their backs!" Tao Dayong, the commander of the [-]st Armored Battalion, picked up his spoon. He dug a spoonful of beef and put it into his mouth, chewing fiercely while saying carelessly but inarticulately.

"It's not that simple, old Tao... Haven't you heard that the Luftwaffe will make a comeback and compete with us for air supremacy over Kharkov in one or two days? In my opinion, it's a bit precarious to rely on the air force to escort us in the next battle. The Germans suffered a loss in the sky last time. If they really kill their carbine this time, they will not rush forward like last time... In terms of air combat experience and flying skills, those German ace pilots will definitely be trained in our Nanyuan. Above those rookies!" Liu Yifei, the commander of the 2nd Armored Battalion, poured cold water unhurriedly.

As the commander of the 2nd Battalion, Liu Yifei has the closest relationship with the Chief of Staff of the Regiment Ren Dao. He has a better relationship with Tao Dayong, the commander of the [-]st Battalion, than with Li Shang, the commander of the [-]rd Battalion. Dayong speaks relatively straightforwardly, while Li Shang, a rich young master, is much softer, and his tricks and small calculations are much more complicated...

Now that Li Shang is not present, Liu Yifei will naturally not easily agree with Tao Dayong's opinion. Speaking of which, Tao Dayong's first battalion was very popular in the north of the Kharkov Forest yesterday, and Yilian actually ate up the opponent's cavalry battalion, and even suppressed it. The opponent's regiment did not dare to show their heads to fight back... This made Liu Yifei, who had spent a day marching with the Sugimoto Regiment of the Kikuchi Brigade, but failed to win a battle, was quite jealous. Liu Yifei's 2nd Battalion was originally out of the city with an infantry regiment of the German army to fight back last night. Sometimes you can use the opportunity to show your skills, but the indecision of Kikuchi Shinnosuke ruined the chance to eat the opponent's group...

Even if you can't eat an infantry regiment, it's a glorious thing to eat a well-organized battalion of the German army. Is it better than Tao Dayong and Li Shang bullying the Ukrainian puppet army in the forest?

"Major Liu, what did you say? The Luftwaffe will come back tomorrow?" Major Maeda, who was exhausted after a day of fighting on the Kharkov Bridge, almost went limp...

"It's just a guess. The reconnaissance planes of the coalition air force have not found signs of a large number of Luftwaffe fighter squadrons gathering in the direction of Odessa and Kiev. However, the heavy combat casualties of our air force for four consecutive days are second. The mental and physical strength of the troops All aspects have reached their limits. It is not impossible for the Germans to come back at this time. Otherwise, I think the German major general will not easily transfer the main force of his 4th Division of Reserve Infantry so quickly... unless he wants to use the same trick Repeat..." Lu Huanyan frowned while rubbing the stubble on his chin.

"I think what Yi Fei said is very possible. The German commander is a bold and cautious leader. He is not very sure that he will not bring up the main force so quickly... The Yonezawa Cavalry Regiment cannot stand up to the German armored train detachment. The main force of Muto's brigade is only three infantry brigades plus our 3rd Armored Battalion. Wu Keren's artillery battalion has few guns and shells... Although the opponent only sent two infantry regiments up, the artillery firepower is strong. Maybe they are planning to eat Major General Muto's main force in one go!"

The chief of staff of the regiment, Ren Daoist, picked up a tea mug and drank a few mouthfuls of hot soup, looking at his regiment leader without blinking.

"Come here, whoever is afraid of whom, let's hurry up and eat the two Ukrainian devils in the forest, and then turn around and deal with the main force of the German army. Didn't the other party come up with three 3mm light howitzer battalions? Let's capture them all , Our regiment is not forming an artillery battalion, but we can directly upgrade to form an artillery regiment... Is it the regiment leader?" Tao Dayong knew that his regiment leader was a student of artillery in Baoding Military Academy, so he said this with a smile.

"Don't underestimate the enemy, and don't underestimate yourself. We suffer from limited terrain. This forest and water network area is full of swamps and big rivers. The space for our armored forces to display is really limited. Now the south is handed over to the Muto brigade and Yonezawa cavalry United, we just need to concentrate on fighting our own battle. Of course, the east gate of Kharkov is a hidden danger. Major Maeda...you only have two and a half infantry squadrons left, not to mention the Germans, and the Ukrainians in the middle of the night. If a regiment of troops rushes, it will be difficult for you to hold on!"

Lu Huanyan turned his attention to the Major Commander of the 7th Infantry Regiment of Mizuno Taisuke's Infantry, Maeda Toshimi, the Marquis of Japan and his superiors were obviously in the Muto Brigade, who were the ones who charged and gnawed the bones, Lu Huanyan But I don't plan to be killed by the German-Ukrainian coalition forces from the east gate when I attack east...
