Chapter 407
"What's the situation with our troops in the northeast?"
"We have withdrawn all the main forces in that area, and only deployed a local independent regiment disguised as the main force."
Wang Bingnan also said with some doubts.
"Is it possible!
Did the Japanese army discover our plan?"
Xia Wenkai looked at the current situation and said seriously.
Wu Lin thought about it.
"Send a telegram to the military district headquarters immediately, reporting the situation in southern Hebei. Have the division commander and his men investigate what's happening around Xingtai."
Jincheng.
At this time, everyone in the Eighth Route Army Headquarters was busy.
The deputy commander-in-chief looked at the map and saw that the Japanese troops were constantly moving around in various parts of North China. Even several Japanese divisions attacking in the Zhongtiao Mountain area had stopped their attacks.
He threw his pencil onto the map in frustration.
"This is really strange. I've fought in wars all my life, but I've never encountered anything this strange."
After a while, the Deputy Chief of General Staff walked in quickly from outside the door.
"Deputy Commander, there's new information."
When the Deputy Chief of General Staff walked into the room and saw the Deputy Commander-in-Chief, he immediately said.
"The Telecommunications Department monitored Japanese military radio stations in North China and discovered that the radio stations of various Japanese military units in North China have been very active in recent hours.
At the same time, the two Japanese divisions in Shijiazhuang and Xingtai in western Hebei have also quickly assembled and marched south."
After hearing what the deputy chief of general staff said, the deputy commander-in-chief couldn't help but ask.
"Could it be that Zeng Jiwen is planning some big move?"
Hearing this, the Deputy Chief of General Staff shook his head.
"They don't know either, they just sent a telegram.
They said that maybe the headquarters had some secret mission and asked them to cooperate with the troops in southern Hebei, and that we were the ones who mobilized them."
Hearing this, the deputy commander was even more puzzled.
After thinking about it, the deputy commander said.
"Send a message to Zeng Jiwen, and have them quickly investigate what's happening in Ji'nan."
In Changzhi, Zeng Jiwen, Zhou Shi and others were in the military district headquarters, looking at the urgent intelligence coming from western Hebei, and they were also confused.
At the same time, there was an inquiry telegram from headquarters asking whether the 389th Division had any major operations.
"Wu Lin and the others don't know either?"
After saying that, Zeng Jiwen looked at Wang Zhuo.
Wang Zhuo shook his head.
“They didn’t know either, so they sent us a message to inquire.
According to the current situation, there must be something important in southern Hebei that is attracting the Japanese troops in North China.
Even the Baoding air force was dispatched."
Hearing this, Zeng Jiwen suddenly felt a headache.
In the original time and space, I had never heard of any important figures in Ji'nan at that time.
Zeng Jiwen took the telegram sent from southern Hebei again.
Looked at it carefully.
According to the telegram, Wu Lin and his men did not do anything. They just set up a pocket and waited for a brigade of the 14th Division to sneak in.
At the same time, the Japanese army's marching direction was wrong, and they were not heading towards Wuan.
For a moment, Zeng Jiwen was a little confused. What were these Japanese devils up to this time?
Zeng Jiwen thought for a moment and said to Wang Zhuo and others.
"If you can't think of it, forget it. Since the Japanese army is gathering here, let the Seventh, Sixth, and Fifth Divisions block the two Japanese divisions heading south.
Wherever Wu Lin and the others are, stop the 27th Brigade! I want to see what tricks the Japs are up to this time."
When Wang Zhuo heard Zeng Jiwen's words, he also expressed his agreement.
Therefore, under Zeng Jiwen's order, the troops in the western Hebei area began to block the Japanese divisions moving south.
In Peking, when Tada Shun received the news of the attack from the troops below, he immediately realized that the 4th Division might have really captured Zeng Jiwen.
Otherwise, the Eighth Route Army in western Hebei would not have been able to stop the Locust Army's support forces so quickly.
So he quickly gave orders, ordering all support troops to rush to Zhaodian as soon as possible.
For a time, the fighting between the two sides in western Hebei became more intense.
In Zhaodian, when Terauchi Isamu received a telegram from Yamashita Tomoyuki asking him to treat the Eighth Route Army's marching hotpot well.
At the same time, let them defend Zhaodian and make sure that the marching pots are not damaged in any way.
The division commander is coming with his troops.
When Terauchi Isamu received the news, he was immediately confused. He thought, "The division commander must be crazy."
Isn't this just a camping pot? Is there any need to get so excited?
Terauchi Isamu looked at the camp pot under his feet, and looked at it carefully, but found nothing different about it.
But he must obey the orders of the division commander.
So they found an ancestral hall, and the entire regiment firmly protected the area around the hall.
I was waiting for the arrival of the division commander in the ancestral hall.
