The secret war is silent

Chapter 403 Unexpected visit from the Chief of Staff

News that the position has been lost must be reported to the theater commander as soon as possible, and the combat command room will receive the news as soon as possible.

If anyone gets the information faster than this theater headquarters, it will be a slap in the face, and this is battlefield information obtained directly from the Japanese army.

Wu Xuexin suddenly felt that Xue Boling might have to admit his mistake this time.

Naturally, when he wanted to see Xue Boling, there was no one to stop him, and he went directly into the battle command room of the Great Hall, except for Xue Boling and a group of senior staff officers.

There is another person named Bai Jiansheng.

He was the old man who assisted Xue Boling in commanding the battle, or supervised the battle, but this little Zhuge was still quite sensible.

Only provide suggestions and do not interfere with command.

This made Xue Boling feel a lot more relaxed. If Bai Jiansheng insisted on interfering with the command, it would be in trouble. It should be noted that Bai Jiansheng rejected the A case and instead chose the B plan of the Military Command Department. Based on this, I added my own ideas to form the current operational guidance plan for the Hunan-Jiangxi Campaign.

With so many people present, especially Bai Jiansheng still present, Wu Xuexin naturally could not report on the situation of the X group. He quietly stepped forward and handed over a telegram: Commander Song of the 32nd Army called, and our department has decided to start the meeting at dawn tomorrow. Launch a counterattack and strive to regain Gao'an in one fell swoop.

What did Commander Luo say?

Based on the current situation, while the Japanese army's occupation of Gao'an City is unstable, we can safely drive out the Japanese army in Gao'an City and recover it in one fell swoop, Wu Xuexin said.

The Japanese army's purpose is obviously to attract the main force of our army to Gao'an and Jinjiang. They want to eat the two armies in one go. They have a big appetite! Bai Jiansheng stood in front of the sand table and said with a smile.

Brother Jiansheng is absolutely right. However, we cannot retreat. Once we retreat, the entire northern Jiangxi will completely fall into the hands of the Japanese army. There will be a huge gap in the right-wing defense of Xiangcheng. If the Japanese army marches straight in, then our previous arrangements will be It turned into a sieve and allowed the enemy to come in! Xue Boling nodded and responded with a solemn expression.

He had already considered the fierceness of the Japanese offensive, but the information on the battlefield was ever-changing. It did not mean that a good plan would lead to victory. This required the commander to make keen judgments and improvise on the spot.

This is the true test of a commander's ability.

Otherwise, it would be so simple on paper.

Tell Commander Luo that you must retake Gao'an for me and drag the Japanese troops here at all costs. Xue Boling pointed to the position of Gao'an on the sand table and ordered the combat staff.

Yes, Commander Xue.

Sir Xue, the Bijiashan position was captured by the Japanese army. A reinforced battalion of the 195th Division, under the battalion commander Shi Enhua, almost all 500 people died for their country! During the break to drink water, Wu Xuexin quietly walked to Xue Boling and reported.

Xue Boling's face changed slightly: Why didn't you say it just now?

Isn't Vice President Bai here? There are some situations that are inconvenient to tell. Please take a look at these two messages. Wu Xuexin quietly handed over the two messages.

Xue Boling was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Wu Xuexin wanted to say, but he still reached out to take the two telegrams and glanced at them. The contents were similar, but the format of the report was different. After a closer look, he found something different. The report of the 52nd Army was very normal. It basically followed the same pattern, but the specifications of the other telegram were different. The syntax looked up and seemed to be the style of the Japanese military telegram report...

This is a communication telegram intercepted and deciphered by the 'X' team, and it was a quarter of an hour faster than what we reported ourselves. Wu Xuexin explained.

What, they can really intercept and decipher the Japanese military's secret communications? Xue Boling was shocked. As the commander of the theater, he had received relevant notifications long ago, but he did not believe how difficult it was to decipher the Japanese military's secret communications. There were rumors before, but It has all been proven that the people below were fooled and lied about the results, or that a blind cat encountered a dead mouse.

As a commander, he certainly hopes that his side can grasp the enemy's movements, and grasping the enemy's secret communications is the most direct method.

The Confidential Office reported that since this morning, they have successively received Japanese military communications secret messages from the 'X' team regarding the decipherment. I have ordered people to check them. They are basically accurate, except for differences in time and statistics. . Wu Xuexin said.

Xue Boling nodded: Where is this 'X' group now?

You have forgotten that they have come to Xiangcheng under the cover of the land occupation service group, in order to detect and decipher the Japanese army's secret communications at a nearby location.

Their confidentiality work is really meticulous. They actually come to Hunan with such an identity?

The mountain city has just uncovered a Japanese espionage organization lurking within us. If the Japanese army knows that we have the ability to decipher their secret communications, then this advantage will be gone. It should be based on this consideration that they are so covert. Come to Hunan. Wu Xuexin analyzed.

If they have the ability to decipher the Japanese army's secret communications, then we can at least increase our chances of winning this battle by 10%! Xue Boling said excitedly. He is not the kind of person who is completely stubborn. As a military commander, everything With the goal of winning the war, any personal emotions must give way.

Mr. Xue, I think so, so we must pay attention. They come to Hunan covertly to keep it secret. Otherwise, if the Japanese spies know that we have the ability to decipher their confidential communications, then our advantage will be gone. So, I suggest They deciphered the secret messages and established a direct reporting channel. Important information can be reported directly as soon as possible, and less important information can be sent to be submitted later. Wu Xuexin suggested.

Okay, I'll leave this matter to you. Since the war started these days, this is good news that will give me an extra bowl of rice. Xue Boling said with a hearty smile.

Hahaha... Wu Xuexin also laughed. This is indeed good news. If we can grasp the movements of the Japanese army in time and know their troop deployment, we can make corresponding deployments at any time. Then we can win a few local victories, let alone win a few local victories. In addition, boosting morale is also useful.

How long has it been since Commander Xue smiled?

Since the war started, I have never seen Commander Xue smile. Is this a victory on the front line?

I don't know, I haven't heard of it...

Anyway, Chief Xue smiled, which is a good thing. Didn't Acting Chief of Staff Wu also smile?

Returning to the staff headquarters, Wu Xuexin ordered that the telegrams sent by the X team be delivered as soon as possible, and that no internal conversations were allowed about the contents of the telegrams, which were kept strictly confidential.

Help me prepare the car, I want to go down the mountain. Then Wu Xuexin called his secretary to him and gave instructions.

Where are you going? Do you want to inform the reception and arrangements? the secretary asked.

No, it's a simple trip, don't bring too many guards. Wu Xuexin ordered that he had to go to Rongyuan in person to meet Qin Ming. There were some things that he couldn't explain clearly on the phone.

Of course, he could also call Qin Ming over to report, but in the end he felt it was better to go there himself, which would appear more sincere and respectful of talents.

Yes. The secretary didn't dare to ask any more questions and went down to prepare.

No. 4, Rongyuan.

At dinner time, Luo Yao called together several leaders of the team to create a small room and did not eat with the others.

It's not that their food standards are higher than others, but they all have the same food standards. Just to improve work efficiency, he puts the time for daily meetings during meals.

Talking while eating in this way can save a lot of time. After all, this is not behind a mountain city, and there is no tense atmosphere like a deep battlefield.

It's your first time working today. Let's talk about it. How do you feel?

The reception here is much better than in the mountain city, and the signal is also very clear. It should be because it is closer to the battlefield and there is less interference. Chen Zerong (Sun Qian) was the first to speak.

We haven't fully grasped the unit number and contact call sign of the Japanese attack this time, but today we discovered something again... Xu Jihong (Hu Yanran) said.

Although we have mastered the rules of encryption of Japanese military secret messages, it is still difficult to decipher the secret messages of communications at the division level, and there is not much progress so far. If we divide the encryption of communications between the various levels of the Japanese army into different levels, the brigade and the alliance will be different. The communication between the teams is Level 3 secret code, while the communication between the wing and the wing, the wing and the detachment or the brigade is Level 2 code. We have some of these parts, but some of them are not, and the brigade We still don’t have a clue about the secret communications between the regiments, the brigade, the division and the Japanese military headquarters, but we can basically intercept their communications, and it will still be quite difficult to decipher them. Huo Tian (Wu Yan) took a sip of pumpkin soup, He took a bite of the steamed bun and said.

The statistical work here is very tedious. I thought I had enough manpower, but I underestimated the workload and needed more manpower... Lin Banggu said with a sneer.

As for the manpower issue, we can consider asking the family to select more people. We will do customer service for this now. Luo Yao said.

The transformer has been purchased, and someone will come to install it tomorrow. Li Fu (Cheng Song) reported, I told people that we bought this transformer because...

When Li Fu said this, someone knocked on the small room.

The person who came in was Yang Fan.

After Yang Fan came in, he walked straight behind Luo Yao, bent down, and whispered twice. Luo Yao immediately put down his chopsticks, stood up and said, A guest is here. You eat first. Old Wu, follow me out to greet him. .”

Huo Tian (Wu Yan) didn't know why, but seeing Luo Yao's solemn words, he naturally stood up and stuffed the leftover steamed bun in his hand into his mouth.

Who is here? Huo Tian followed Luo Yao out and asked after catching up.

Wu Xuexin.

Lieutenant General Wu Xuexin, acting chief of staff of the theater? Huo Tian was surprised, Why did you come here suddenly without notifying me in advance?

Who knows, maybe this is what people want.

Do you think the Japanese military secrets we deciphered today will work? Huo Tian asked, always thinking on the bright side.

I hope so. Luo Yao expressed cautious optimism.
