The estimates of Okamura Neji and Usami Takashi were actually wrong.
Strictly speaking, the number of troops used by the national army to invest in the Yiwu battlefield to encircle and annihilate the Guards Division was 13 divisions, which was not as many as 15 divisions.
Why are there only 13 divisions?
Because Qiu Qingquan¡¯s attack group only came with 5 divisions.
The remaining division is used to block the attack.
The person responsible for blocking the attack was Cao Ziying¡¯s 203rd Division.
Although they set off at the same time, Cao Ziyi's 203rd Division stopped and stopped moving forward after advancing to Luxi Township at the junction of Shengxian County and Dongyang, and began to build defenses on the spot.
The task Qiu Qingquan gave to the 203rd Division was to block the Japanese troops coming from the direction of Shengzhou for at least one day and night!
Because according to Zhong Yi¡¯s deployment, one day and night is enough for the 13 divisions of the 41st Group Army and the 10th Group Army to pull out the fangs of the Japanese Guards Division!
On the top of Jilongjian Mountain in Green River Township, Cao Ziying was taking Zhang Yuanfan to inspect the artillery position.
The 203rd Division now has an artillery regiment, and the position of this artillery regiment was chosen on the reverse slope of the chicken coop.
This reverse slope does not have any impact on the shooting of the 81mm caliber mortars equipped by the artillery regiment, but it can effectively avoid the Japanese counterattack.
"Well, not bad, very good." Cao Ziying praised continuously as she walked away.
This time the 10th Army was reorganized, and a large number of officers were added to the three detachments originally belonging to the Coastal Defense Corps.
The current artillery regiment commander graduated from the Sixth Artillery Department of the Central Military Academy. He is a real artilleryman. The positions built by professional artillery are different.
Zhang Yuanfan is no longer the young student he was back then.
Pointing to the artillery position in front of him, Zhang Yuanfan was like a general and said to Cao Ziying: "Master, look, the artillery position firing from here can completely block the road at the foot of Jilongjian Mountain! Unless the Japanese destroy our artillery position, Otherwise, with their personnel, equipment and supplies, they wouldn¡¯t even be able to get under the top of the chicken coop!¡±
"Yeah." Cao Ziying nodded lightly, and when he was about to say a few words, there was suddenly a burst of gunfire from the front.
"Hey, where are you shooting? Where are you shooting?" Cao Ziying took out the Browning pistol from her waist.
Zhang Yuanfan did not draw his gun, but raised his telescope and looked for a while, and then said: "It seems to be coming from the direction of the mountains to the north. There is a small road there. The Japanese may want to take a detour from there."
"The Japs are really stubborn. If they encounter obstacles from the front, they will take detours from the side." Cao Ziying said suddenly, "However, if they encounter our 203rd Division this time, they can only be considered unlucky."
The Japs¡¯ heavy equipment couldn¡¯t enter the mountain, so Cao Ziying didn¡¯t worry about the Japs¡¯ detour at all.
Why? Because Cao Ziying had deployed his three main regiments across the entire line and occupied more than a dozen nearby hills, no matter which direction the Japanese took a detour, they would be hit head-on by their division.
In a word, unless the Japanese don¡¯t intend to cross this highway, we can only fight hard with them.
The next scene also verified Cao Ziying¡¯s idea, with gunshots ringing out from the valleys on both sides.
But soon, Cao Ziying discovered that something was wrong, because there was still no large group of Japanese troops on the road, but in the valleys on both sides, the gunfire became more and more intensive, and the gunfire continued to spread farther away.
Is it possible that the Japanese are planning to make a detour from a further distance? But, is this the only road nearby?
Just when Cao Ziying was in shock and doubt, a signal soldier suddenly ran over and reported: "Master, it's not good, the Japanese have passed from the direction of Lion Rock!"
Before he finished speaking, another signal soldier hurried over.
"Master, the Japs passed directly from the direction of Jinsiling."
Immediately afterwards, the third signal soldier hurried over.
"Master's seat, Master's seat, the Japanese have passed from the direction of Qishuwan."
Cao Ziying was a little confused, what do you mean? The Japanese have divided their forces? Detoured in multiple directions?
But is it useful for your infantry to take a detour? Where is your heavy equipment? If you can't get through the heavy equipment, what's the point of just relying on thousands or tens of thousands of your Japanese infantry to get through?
A single bombardment will blow you to ashes!
At that moment, Cao Ziying asked in surprise: "Did the Japs come here in a roundabout way, or did they leave directly?"
"Let's go, they walked directly towards Yiwu!" Several signal soldiers said in unison.
"I?! "Cao Ziying finally realized at this time that the little devil was desperate and would rather abandon all the heavy equipment to reinforce the Guards Division.
"Damn it, let me chase you!" Cao Ziying said angrily, "Catch them and entangle them! Hurry!"
After finishing speaking, Cao Ziying said to Zhang Yuanfan: "Yuanfan, hurry up and send a telegram, saying that the Japanese 15th Division has detoured through Luxi Township in multiple ways, and our 203rd Division can stop it!"
"Yes!" Zhang Yuanfan hurried back to the communications class to send a telegram.

Quzhou Lake Town, Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone Chief's Department.
At this time, Zhong Yi still didn¡¯t know that Okamura Neji had changed his tactics!
After daybreak, as battle reports from the front line came in one after another, the situation gradually became clearer.
After the five divisions of Qiu Qingquan's attack group entered the battle, the situation of the Guards Division deteriorated sharply. Up to now, the entire defense area has been compressed to less than 30 kilometers from east to west, and less than 15 kilometers from north to south.
Dongyang County and Pujiang County, which flanked the Guards Division, were also liberated by the National Army. Although some Japs in the county still resisted and started street battles with the National Army, it was impossible to cause any more disturbances.
Yu Liangzhen said excitedly: "Zi Ren, judging from the current situation, the battle will be almost over in a dozen hours, right? The Guards Division seems to be unable to escape!"
Xuan Tiewu also said: "By tonight's evening, the battle will almost be over."
Hu Jianzhong, the editor-in-chief of the Southeast Daily next to him, couldn't help but ask: "Sir Yu, can I start writing reports on the Yiwu Victory now?"
"The battle has not been over yet, how can we post a good news article?" Zhong Yi said coldly, "The final victory has not yet come, we cannot let down our guard for a moment. As the saying goes, never be too happy to be sad."
Hu Jianzhong showed an embarrassed look on his face and thought to himself, can you speak?
"You can write articles, but you can't publish them." Yu Liangzhen smoothed things over and said, "Go ahead."
Watching Hu Jianzhong go away, Yu Liangzhen said to Zhong Yi: "Zi Ren, Editor-in-chief Hu also has good intentions. He just wants to help our Zhejiang and Fujian war zone to promote it. Don't mind."
"I don't mind." Zhong Yi shook his head and said, "I just think it's a bit premature to say that we will definitely win now, and the battle may be repeated!" (Remember this site's website address: www.hlnovel.com
