    Another sleepless night passed like this, and Zhang Xian didn¡¯t even know when it was dawn.

    Xiong Kaiping returned to the headquarters of the 32nd Regiment with a tired look on his face and reported to Zhang Xian on the interrogation of the prisoners.  It turned out that those who attacked Suqian City were, as Zhang Xian had guessed, local troops of the Communist Army, but they were affiliated with the Ninth Column of the Central China Field Army. They were a security group with thousands of people.  The mission of this unit was only to be used by the New Fourth Army to contain the Suqian defenders, and the New Fourth Army had no plans to capture Suqian City. The reason why this regiment launched an attack on Suqian was because it saw that the defense of the 32nd Regiment was somewhat relaxed.  , so I wanted to take advantage of others' danger, hoping to get an unexpected result, but ultimately failed.

    After listening to Xiong Kaiping's narration, Zhang Xian finally felt at ease. It seemed that Suqian City would not be in danger for the time being.

    However, the sound of guns and artillery in the north has stopped, and the entire 69th Division has obviously been annihilated.

    Sure enough, at noon, the two battalions of the 32nd Regiment stationed in Jingertou picked up more than 300 remnants of the 69th Division. This was the entire 69th Division that was surrounded in Miaozhuang.  After they broke out, there was a group of New Fourth Army chasing them. Bai Jingsheng led the second battalion to resolutely fight back the chasing troops in the pre-made fortifications. The chasing troops of the New Fourth Army did not expect for a moment.  There will be national army response troops here, and as soon as they receive fire, they will retreat one after another.

    Those who escaped confirmed Zhang Xian¡¯s guess. Except for these 300 people, the entire 69th Division had been wiped out. That was more than 28,000 people!  After holding on for five days and five nights, Commander Dai chose to commit suicide instead of being captured when the 69th Division was finally broken through by the New Fourth Army!  If a hero is not judged by success or failure, he can be regarded as an upright man.

    Zhang Xian felt that his heart was beating really hard. At this time, he was only worried about the reorganized 11th Division in the direction of Caojiaji to the east.

    Under the leadership of Hu Congjun, the reorganized 11th Division carefully retreated westward. It was not until its leading troops joined the 32nd Regiment in Jingertou Village that everyone began to let go of their high spirits.  Strangely, the newly victorious and vigorous New Fourth Army did not encircle them. Instead, they swept the battlefield, counted their trophies, escorted a large number of prisoners, and retreated quietly. Only a few troops were sent to attack the entire 11th Division.  Be on surveillance and alert.

    Hu Congjun finally returned to Suqian with the entire 11th Division. When they saw Zhang Xian, everyone felt as if they had been separated for a lifetime.

    "Zhang Xian, I thought we would never come back!" Brigadier Yang Tao told him half jokingly, half seriously. It seemed that he had already prepared for the worst.

    "Yes!" Hu Congjun also sighed and said leisurely: "It wasn't until your 32nd regiment captured Jingertou Village that my heart settled down. This battle was too dangerous!" There was also something in his words.  Full of unexpected joy.

    Zhang Xian's mood suddenly relaxed, but there was another kind of uneasiness. His brows were still furrowed, and he couldn't tell why.  Although the entire 11th Division retreated with only one engineer battalion lost, the result was very disappointing. The annihilation of the 69th Division, at this time, has become something that will never be erased in everyone's mind.  memory.

    "Zhang Xian, are you still unhappy? Seeing that we all came back alive, why didn't you say a word of comfort and became embarrassed?" Wang Yuanling, the commander of the 118th Brigade, joked like this.

    Zhang Xian smiled awkwardly and said to everyone: "How can I? Although I didn't go on the adventure with you this time, the suffering is no worse than yours!"

    Hu Congjun nodded. During the battle, he and Zhang Xian had several phone calls. Of course, he knew the difficulties of the 32nd Regiment, which was supporting the rear. However, Zhang Xian did a very good job. He defended Suqian City and captured it.  In fact, he was the most successful unit in the Chinese military in this military operation. However, due to the failure of this military operation, his victory at this point became eclipsed.

    "Did you think of something else?" Hu Congjun asked Zhang Xian.

    Zhang Xian nodded and said to him: "I'm just curious, why did the New Fourth Army let go of our entire 11th Division under such a good situation? They could have taken advantage of the victory to encircle us, even if they couldn't defeat us  Annihilation can also cause us to lose troops and generals, but why do we retreat completely? It is really hard to figure out!"

    Yang Tao said: "Zhang Xian, I think you may be worrying too much! The Communist army has eaten the entire 69th Division, and he himself has been injured a lot, so how can he still have the strength to deal with us!"

    Zhang ??I don¡¯t know what to do now that I¡¯m no longer a soldier!  "

    ¡°The world is so big, where can¡¯t we settle down and make a living?¡± Hu Congjun advised again.

    "Yes!" Wu Qidao said, feeling a little helpless at the same time. He said to him and Zhang Xian: "You are right. Being able to leave the military at this time is actually a blessing. Chaos is far away, and this is my old life.  It can still be saved, hey! You still have a long way to go!"

    Hearing what he said, Zhang Xian and Hu Congjun looked at each other. It was exactly as he said. Seeing that the war was getting bigger and bigger, and the communist bandits were suppressing more and more, they put aside the issue of their future. Really speaking  Maybe one day, he might die on the battlefield like Commander Dai of the 69th Division.

    Seeing that the two people stopped answering, Wu Qi felt that he had said too much, so he cupped his hands and turned around to leave.

    "By the way, Jun Zuo, I have something to ask!" Zhang Xian couldn't help but shout.

    Wu Qi turned back, looked at him and asked, "Oh, just ask. As long as I know something, I will definitely tell you."

    Zhang Xian hesitated for a moment, then asked: "Before our battle this time, we originally planned to march carefully, but I don't know who Jun Zuo got the military intelligence from, saying that the main force of the Communist Army is not here, so  Everyone just let go of their hands and feet, which led to the current fiasco?"

    In fact, this question has always been what Zhang Xian wanted to ask, and it was also what Hu Congjun wanted to ask. Today, I saw Commander Wu leaving in such a dejected state. If I don't ask, I may not have a chance to know in the future.

    Wu Qi was startled for a moment and remembered the original mobilization meeting. If it weren't for this information, everyone wouldn't have been defeated so completely.

    Hu Congjun also said: "Yes, Jun Zuo, you said that this information was informed by the reconnaissance of the Air Force and people from the Ministry of National Defense. Now it seems that the Communist Army chose to march at night. Of course, the Air Force will not be able to detect it, but the Ministry of National Defense  Who in the country can know the movements of the Communist army? And you also said that if this news is false, then there must be Communist spies in our Ministry of National Defense!"

    Wu Qi nodded, still very sure: "Now it seems that this news is indeed false. There is indeed a Communist spy in our Ministry of National Defense, but I dare not say who this spy is!"

    "Then how did you come to such a conclusion?" Zhang Xian asked closely.

    Wu Qidao: "This news should have been obtained by people from the Secrecy Bureau first, but the intelligence from the Secrecy Bureau still needs to be analyzed before it is compiled into the Intelligence Department of the Ministry of National Defense. It may not be true. I don't know who analyzed and determined this information.  Yes, it was sent to Xuzhou in an urgent situation. Maybe it was a little anxious, but it was not signed or signed. I also doubted the authenticity of this information. After studying it with Director Xue for a long time, I got through again.  I received a call from Director Liu of the Military Command Department who was responsible for this combat plan."

    "Oh? What did Director Liu say?"

    "Director Liu told us with great certainty that this information should be true, because the Communist army cannot know our combat plan. They do not know where we are going to attack along the way, and Lianshui and Yan in the south are  The Fu area is an area that both sides have fought for many times, and the Communist army should not give up easily. In addition, Shandong is approaching their capital Linyi all the way, so it will be difficult for them to spare their troops and go south. Unless they already know about our operations.  Plan, otherwise it would be impossible to take the risk and rush to the battlefield in Suqian!"

    "When he said this, both Zhang Xian and Hu Congjun understood. It seemed that someone in the Ministry of National Defense really leaked military secrets to the Communist Army, so that the Communist Army could respond so calmly and quietly assemble near Suqian.  Otherwise, they wouldn't have thought of coming here.

    After listening to Wu Qi's explanation, Zhang Xian and Hu Congjun couldn't help but get goosebumps all over their bodies. If there were really communist spies in the Ministry of National Defense, then this battle would not be able to be fought at all. The result is conceivable.  Known.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
