Age of Rebirth

The rising sun, the dawn of July in the Liaodong Peninsula once again shrouded the land. Several small transport planes took off from the airstrip of the Bayuquan Field Airfield and flew to the northwest. Afterwards, two squadrons of fighter jets rushed to Then it took off, and the bright sun reflected the fuselage in a golden light.

Sitting in the cabin, Tang Qiuli watched with great interest the lush land of the Liaodong Peninsula shrouded in sunlight. Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe was not in such a leisurely mood. He had been watching. Early this morning, the commander of the Marine Corps A telegram from Guan Hantie.

"Master, Commander Hantie sent a telegram in the early hours of this morning, reporting the adjustment of the combat deployment of the northern combat group on the Liaodong Peninsula. Now, the battle to chase and wipe out the new Kwantung Army's second corps on the battlefield north of Andong is approaching. At the end, but in the direction of Gaizhou, the blocking battle was very fierce. The remnants of the retreating Japanese army all used Gaizhou as the only way to retreat to Fengtian. Information about the occupation?" Zhao Yuhe couldn't hold back anymore, and expressed his doubts.

Tang Qiuli withdrew his gaze from the window and said, "There can only be one explanation. The remnants of the Japanese army who fled from the Liaodong Peninsula became the abandoned sons of Umezu Yoshijiro. Soldiers, to meet the retreating Japanese army, and Umezu Yoshijiro also knows that the Liaodong Peninsula battlefield has become a huge trap, how many troops does he have to fill it in?"

"As for the new Second Corps of the Kwantung Army, it is the last bargaining chip, but the same. It is also an abandoned child. As the saying goes, if you succeed, you will gain. If you lose, you will not hesitate. I can conclude that Gaizhou will fall into our hands. According to the news, Umezu Yoshijiro has blocked the remnants of the Japanese army in the Liaodong Peninsula area. If they don’t know, all the more than [-] Japanese soldiers will be concentrated in the direction of Gaizhou. If you really open the Gaizhou passage, even if you run out halfway , for him, it was a surprise!"

"The Liaodong Peninsula battlefield is a dead end for Umezu Yoshijiro. He has already chosen to give up. Instead, he has turned his attention to the northeast, west and northwest. That is what he cares most about now!" Pause, Tang Qiuli smiled and said: "That's good too. Being able to wipe out the remnants of the Japanese army on the front line in Gaizhou saved Han Tie a lot of effort, and solved the Japanese army in the Liaodong Peninsula. The sixteen brigades commanded by Han Tie. But The deadliest knife!" Under the sunlight through the porthole, his smile was very bright.

After more than two hours.Nearly ten o'clock in the morning, Tang Qiuli's plane landed at the field airport outside Kailu City, Mengdong. Major General Yuan Jinghao, the commander of the North China Field Corps of the Independent Division, who came to the airport to greet him, most of them came up to him. After standing at attention and saluting, he was excited. He said: "Master, that guy Han Tie is fighting in full swing in the Liaodong Peninsula, but it makes me greedy. Are you going to make a big move when you return to Kailu this time?"

Tang Qiuli smiled, and did not answer Yuan Jinghao's words, but said: "Go back to your headquarters, I said Yuan Jinghao, you don't think about anything other than fighting? I flew over from the Liaodong Peninsula early in the morning. Didn't you think about preparing something for me to eat?"

Yuan Jinghao followed Tang Qiuli, quickly got into the military jeep, and replied with a smile: "How can I forget, Director Mei has already prepared breakfast for you, but I asked the headquarters to prepare everything for you." The cooking class sent it over, it must meet your taste!"

Shanhu, who was sitting in the front row, interrupted abruptly, "I said Commander Yuan, when did you learn to ask for credit and flatter you? If Director Mei didn't think the teacher would come back today, you, the careless one, could run the train , who can think of preparing breakfast for us, who would believe that!"

Including Zhao Yuhe, several people in the car burst into laughter, and Yuan Jinghao was not embarrassed, and replied: "Captain Huang, the Liaodong Peninsula and his party have become sharp-tongued when they come back. I admit, it is Director Mei. I have been thinking about the teacher coming back today, but the things are always given by me. It is not for other reasons, but I just want to ask the teacher for permission. When the teacher returns to Kailu, does it mean that the little devils will start a full-scale fight? At that time, we will fight in the North China field Corps, but to take the lead!"

Tang Qiuli smiled slightly, and looked at Zhao Yuhe, Zhao Yuhe said, "Commander Yuan, why did you come to this judgment?"

Yuan Jinghao saw that Tang Qiuli did not show any displeasure, so he said, "Obviously, the commander's return from the Liaodong Peninsula battlefield means that the battle over there is over, and he, Han Tie, has sixteen brigades in his hands. 30 troops, what are you doing? You can’t stay in the Liaodong Peninsula all the time. There are two directions. One is to take Fengtian directly and destroy the old nest of the Kwantung Army. Back way!"

"The division commander used three main corps to contain all the main forces of the Kwantung Army. It has been more than a month. The Liaodong Peninsula has been under heavy fire, and the little devil's mobile force has been eaten up. If Han Tie's troops don't copy the small The devil's back road, what did the commander ask Yuan Jinghao's hundreds of thousands of soldiers to stay on the front line from Kailu to Tongliao in eastern Mengdong? So, the end of the war on the Liaodong Peninsula is the time for the full-scale battle to regain the Northeast!"

Tang Qiuli still smiled and did not say yes or no, but Zhao Yuhe was turbulent in his heart. During the long conversation with the division commander last night, he believed in the judgment of the division commander. The main force of the Kwantung Army in several directions has shrunk to the hinterland of the Northeast, but there is still a trace of doubt in my heart. After all, the Kwantung Army still has more than 160 million troops.

The Kwantung Army has worked hard in the Northeast for many years, and has been fighting the Soviet Army. Regardless of the combat experience and equipment level of the soldiers, they are the leading heavy-armed group in the Japanese Army. How can they be willing to hand over the Northeast and the West? , After several major battles, the depletion of troops is not enough to support the defense capabilities in the northeastern and western regions before considering shrinking troops and turning to strategic defense.

However, Yuan Jinghao, who is far away from the battlefield of the Liaodong Peninsula, can see the two directions of action of the Hantie troops. How can the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army Umezu Yoshijiro not see the imminent danger? In terms of psychological analysis and judgment, I am still far behind!

"Master, will the staff office issue a notice immediately to start a military meeting attended by the commanders and chiefs of staff of each corps?" Zhao Yuhe couldn't sit still any longer, and suggested to Tang Qiuli.

Tang Qiuli shook his head slowly, and said simply, "Let's talk when we go back!"

The convoy entered Kailu County unobtrusively and unobtrusively, because the North China Field Corps of the Independent Division had hundreds of thousands of troops, plus hundreds of thousands of troops directly under the Corps, with dozens of designations, all stationed in Kailu with a radius of hundreds of miles. Within the area, military affairs are busy, troops are frequently mobilized, and there are a lot of military vehicles coming and going. In the small Kailu County, more than half of them are soldiers in military uniforms. There are more than a dozen cars on the street, and no one notices at all.

Tang Qiuli wanted to kill this effect. The corps directly under the designation of the North China Field Corps has been stationed around Kailu for more than a month. Except for the high-level members of the independent division, no one knows that this independent division is the most well-equipped. , Where and where is the mechanized corps with the strongest combat effectiveness?

After entering the headquarters of the North China Field Corps, Yuan Jinghao, Zhao Yuhe, and Shan Hu went to Yuan Jinghao's office. Tang Qiuli went straight back to the yard where he was working. As soon as he opened the door, he smelled There was a burst of fragrance, and on a kang table, there were exquisite side dishes, of course, Tang Qiuli's favorite bacon, a pot of yellow and orange millet porridge, exuding a tempting fragrance, Mei Ting was smiling sweetly Standing on the open space in the house, she watched her husband walk in.

Both Mei Xue and Liu Xinlan boarded the plane on an empty stomach, and they were already hungry, "Sister, I love your millet porridge the most. I'm in a hurry in the morning, and Xinlan and I haven't eaten yet, just in time! " Said, Mei Xue pulled Liu Xinlan's hand, and was about to sit in front of the table.

Mei Ting slapped her sister with a smile, and said to her husband, "I knew that when I flew back early in the morning, I definitely didn't have breakfast. I prepared it for you in advance, so hurry up and eat. There are many things waiting for you!"

Tang Qiuli's saliva couldn't help coming out long ago, and he sighed and said, "Sister Ting still has the heart!" After finishing speaking, he crossed his legs into the pit, and began to eat unceremoniously.

Mei Ting put a piece of cured meat into Tang Qiuli's bowl, and said to Mei Xue and Liu Xinlan as if she was blaming: "You two too, knowing that you are going back to Kailu today, you don't know how to get up early to get something to eat I came back hungry, really!" Mei Xue and Liu Xinlan both stuck out their tongues in embarrassment, looked at each other, and then buried their heads in drinking porridge.

In fact, last night, Mei Xue and Liu Xinlan packed their things late, and originally wanted to get up early, but for some reason, they overslept, and when Tang Qiuli opened his eyes, the two of them were already standing. In front of the bed, he looked at the sleeping cat-like woman with great interest. Under the gaze of the man's lustful eyes, he quickly got dressed. Of course, he was taken advantage of by a pair of salty pig hands. People find it funny.

Before the rice bowl was put down, the teacher pointed to Colonel Ge Zhenzhuang, the chief of staff, and came over in a hurry. When he saw the teacher and the three wives eating, he hesitated, hesitating whether to go in. Tang Qiuli had seen him a long time ago, and greeted him. Said: "Director Ge, come in!"

Ge Zhenzhuang nodded apologetically at Mei Ting, took out a telegram from the folder, and said: "Master, I just received a telegram from the commander of the Marine Corps Hantie. Fifty kilometers away, in the Fengcheng area of ​​the Liaodong Peninsula, encircled and wiped out all the new Kwantung Army Second Corps, Commander Han asked the division for instructions, what is the next move for the troops?"
