    On November 20, the 12th Corps broke through the Beifeihe defense line guarded by the Xianghe Column and continued to advance north. At this time, Huang Wei had to use the 18th Army as the vanguard again. In front, the 12th Corps  The headquarters followed the 14th Army, followed closely behind the 18th Army, and advanced toward Suxian in the northeast. That night, they camped at Zhaojiaji in the middle of the Mengsu Highway.

    The Tenth Army, as the left column of the Twelfth Army, also advanced in parallel from the direction of Xiaojianji. Following Huang Wei's war command policy, the Eighteenth Army and the Fourteenth Army served as the main force to form the right column of the Twelfth Army. They marched from Mongolia along the Mengsu Highway.  Starting from the city, passing through Banqiao, Zhaojiaji, and Nanpingji, and driving directly to the south of Suxian County; while the Tenth Army set out from Xiyang Ji and Xiaojian Ji in the upper reaches of the Wohe River, and as the left column of the regiment, passed through Zhangjiaji  , Sun Tuan, reached the west of Suxian County, and the two columns formed a pincer attack on Suxian County.  At the same time, the 85th Army coming from behind, under the leadership of Deputy Commander Wu Zhou, will resupply in Mengcheng and then follow the routes of the 18th Army and the 14th Army to meet up with the main force in Nanping.

    Commander Huang Wei¡¯s idea is very simple. In his opinion, a hundred thousand elite troops attacking Suxian from the north will definitely be invincible. How can there be a possibility that they cannot be captured?

    However, Banqiao Ji's battle to break through the Beifei River had already shaken Commander-in-Chief Huang's ambitions that were still high at the beginning. It was a Xianghe column under Liu Bocheng. Such local troops could defeat his 12th Corps.  We were blocked by the Bei Fei River for a day and a night. If we continue to fight like this, there is an even more difficult Hui River ahead. I don¡¯t know how many more days and nights the fight will last!

    While camping in Zhaoji, Commander Xiong of the 14th Army also became a little uneasy. With many years of battlefield fighting, he obviously smelled some bad information, so he brought a guard to the temporary military headquarters of the 18th Army.  , came to discuss the situation of this battle with Commander Yang Tao.

    In fact, speaking of the Fourteenth Army, Zhang Xian, Yang Tao and others are all familiar with it. When the Eighteenth Army was reorganizing the Eleventh Division, the Fourteenth Army was the reorganized Tenth Division, side by side with the reorganized Eleventh Division.  We had fought together many times, and Commander Xiong was also a civil engineering general promoted by Chen Cheng. He was already familiar with Hu Congjun, Yang Tao, Zhang Xian and others during the Anti-Japanese War.

    When Commander Xiong arrived, Yang Tao was discussing with Zhang Xian and Wang Yuanling the next move of the 18th Army. Commander Yang had sent out the 18th Army search team early. However, by this time, although some personnel had returned, the search team had not yet returned.  Captain Joe has not yet appeared.

    As soon as Commander Xiong saw Yang Tao, he talked about the purpose of the trip straight to the point, and said to Yang Tao: "Commander Yang, I am very worried!"

    "What are you worried about?" Yang Tao asked him.

    Commander Xiong said: "Don't Commander Yang feel it yet? Our opponents this time are different from the past. In the past, Liu Bocheng's troops avoided us, followed us in circles, and fought guerrillas. But this time, they  It will not retreat even to the death, and it has powerful firepower, so I think there must be something fishy in this!"

    Yang Tao looked at each other with Zhang Xian and Wang Yuanling. During the meeting in Mengcheng, Commander Xiong was still on the road with the 14th Army. Now he also sees something wrong, which explains the problem.

    Yang Tao nodded and told him: "We have already mentioned this to Commander Huang, but he thinks that the enemy is afraid that we will raise troops to rescue Huang Botao's regiment, so he will set up obstacles at all levels. The purpose is to  I want to eat Huang Botao!"

    Commander Xiong nodded, then shook his head, and couldn't help but said: "Old Yang, Huang Botao has been surrounded for several days. Xuzhou has mobilized Qiu Yuqing's Second Corps, Li Mi's Thirteenth Corps and Sun Yuanliang's Tenth Corps.  The Sixth Corps combined the strength of three corps to rescue Huang Botao. Those three corps were so close to Huang Botao that they could not save him. We, the 12th Corps, had worked hard all the way from Henan. Could it be that we were so powerful that we could break through Liu Bocheng's heavy attack?  Blockade, will we reach Xuzhou? I¡¯m afraid that even if we reach Xuzhou, Huang Botao won¡¯t be able to support it at that time.¡±

    Yang Tao was stunned. He had never considered this issue before, but he asked knowingly: "Commander Xiong, according to your words, we don't need to rescue Xuzhou and just go back home!"

    Commander Xiong smiled, but nodded, and said at the same time: "Old Yang, I am worried that once the 7th Corps is wiped out, will our 12th Corps be like Huang Botao in the last battle of Suiqi?  What if the communist army turns back and surrounds us again?"

    Yang Tao had also discussed this issue with Zhang Xian and others. At this time, hearing it from Commander Xiong's mouth made him even more doubtful. He nodded and asked him: "According to your opinion, how do you do this?"  What to do?"

    Commander Xiong let out a long sigh and said to Yang Tao: "I have heard of Chief of Staff Xiao's three Mengcheng battle plans. They are all very good.Move to Mengcheng and follow Chief of Staff Xiao's first deployment!  "

    "Yes! Junzuo, it's still too late to turn back now!" Yang Tao also echoed.

    Huang Wei's face showed a look of embarrassment at this time. He was no longer as determined as when he just came out of Mengcheng. However, he pondered for a long time without saying a word. He raised his head and saw Yang Tao standing next to him.  Zhang Xian was standing beside him. When his eyes met, he couldn't help but remember something and said to Zhang Xian: "Master Zhang, before Deputy Commander Hu left, he once mentioned that you were the little Zhuge of the 18th Army.  Resourceful, how do you think about this?"

    Yang Tao and Commander Xiong also cast their eyes on Zhang Xian. Zhang Xian thought for a moment, walked to the map, looked at it again, then raised his head, but said to Commander Huang very seriously: "Jun seat,  Indeed, as the two commanders said, our Twelve Corps is already in some danger!"

    "Oh?" Huang Wei couldn't help but ask: "Why do you judge like this?"

    Zhang Xian looked at the map, pointed at the area from Mengcheng to Suxian, and then said: "This area is crisscrossed by rivers, which is not conducive to the advancement of our mobile troops, but it is very conducive to the enemy's layer-by-layer blocking. Now we  The main force of the 12th Corps is all out to the north of the Wuhe River, right between the Wuhe and Hui rivers. It is like an eagle fighting its wings or a tiger fighting its claws. Its combat power will be greatly reduced. If the enemy has an army to kill from behind,  We will come over here, seize Mengcheng, and cut off the retreat of our Twelve Corps, then we will become a lone army, with a hundred thousand soldiers but no place to stand!"

    As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned. Deputy Chief of Staff Wen was the first to doubt: "How is it possible? How can the enemy capture Mengcheng?"

    Zhang Xian's sword-like gaze was directed at Chief of Staff Wen's face, but he said strictly: "If we are not fully prepared, anything can happen!" He said, facing Commander Huang Wei  , pointing to Cao Market and Bough Furnace Town to the west of Xiaojianji: "The Tenth Army discovered that a large force of the Communist Army was moving. This must attract our attention. I think we should pay close attention to the whereabouts of this enemy.  It is very likely that they will take a detour upstream of the Guohe River, return to Mengcheng, and seize Mengcheng when our troops are exhausted to cut off our retreat!"

    Everyone couldn¡¯t help but take a breath of cold air. Yang Tao asked anxiously: "Jun Zuo, is the 85th Army still in Mengcheng now?"

    Huang Wei was stunned for a moment, but he shook his head and told them: "I'm afraid that the 85th Army will be too late, so I want them to rush all night after supplies. At this time, they are camping at the Nainai Temple!"

    "Ah!" Everyone couldn't help being shocked.

    Deputy Chief of Staff Wen Xiu smiled and said to everyone: "Don't worry, everyone, Commander Huang still asked Deputy Commander Wu to leave a division to guard Mengcheng. Haha, our staff still knows about this.  !¡±

    Huang Wei also nodded.

    Hearing what Deputy Chief of Staff Wen said, everyone felt relieved.

    "I wonder which division Deputy Commander Wu left behind?" Zhang Xian couldn't help but ask.

    ¡°Division 110!¡± Huang Wei told everyone.

    Zhang Xian was stunned for a moment. Division 110 was the division where his former alumnus from Mainland China, Shen Fengqi, was the division commander.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
