"Reporting to Guild Leader! Intercepted enemy telegrams."
Ten minutes later, a cracking expert walked up to Zhang Qian with a document in his hand.
"So fast?"
Zhang Qian didn't expect that he would be able to obtain information about the Japanese so quickly.
Looking at the densely packed telegrams, Zhang Qian compared them to the map on the wall and began to think about how he should mobilize the army.
After half an hour, Zhang Qian gradually had an idea of the Japanese's military deployment. He then realized that the cracking expert was still there.
"Oh, I actually forgot about you. You guys did well this time. Keep up the good work. You can leave first. After the battle, we will reward you according to your merits.”
The cracking expert saluted and said,""Yes, thank you, Guild Leader."
························
After the expert left, Zhang Qian looked at the map again.
According to the information, Zhang Qian knew that the Japanese army that attacked the West Mountain had a total of 180,000 people.
There were six divisions.
One of the targets of the 3rd division was their Zhang Clan Fort.
The other 5 Regiments quickly took a detour and attacked the southern part of West Mountain.
Judging from the Japanese's strategic intentions, their goal was to quickly occupy the entire Xishan Province.
Therefore, a small Zhang Clan Fort would not be besieged by their army of over 100,000 soldiers.
One 3rd division was enough.
The entire 30th Regiment had 30,000 men, which was more than the strength of the entire Self-Defense Regiment.
It could be seen that no matter what, this battle would be a tough one for Zhang Qian.
"Guards, inform the 3rd Battalion to bury all the mines in our inventory on the plains beyond the horizon. In addition, a small number of mines were buried in the interior of the One-Line-Sky. They also sent a company of soldiers to block the Japanese troops on the horizon. He wanted them to remember that once the Japanese started to counterattack, they had to retreat from One-Line-Sky immediately.”
"Yes, sir! Guild Leader."
"Wait! Also, inform the Artillery Battalion to cooperate with the 3rd Battalion. Once you receive my order, don't be afraid of wasting ammunition and immediately bombard the area with all your might!”
"Yes, sir!"
"Alright, go ahead."
···························
At the same time, the viewers in the live streaming room also realized the changes in the situation and began to do their best to help Zhang Qian tide over the difficulties.
All kinds of useful resources, equipment, and soldiers began to be rewarded.
All kinds of notifications kept ringing in the live broadcast room.
At first, Zhang Qian paid attention to it, but later on, he devoted himself to this battle.
Facing the 30,000-strong Japanese 3rd Division, the Self-Defense Forces had no advantage at all.
If one had to talk about an advantage, it would be that Zhang Qian had already learned of their actions in advance and made arrangements in advance.
Other than the 3rd Battalion that was sent to One-Line-Sky, the 1st Battalion and the Scout Battalion were all gathered in Liu An County City by Zhang Qian, waiting for his orders.
As for the 2nd Battalion, they were ordered by Zhang Qian to guard Zhang Clan Fort and Liu An County.
As for the other areas in the northern part of Xishan Province, Zhang Qian could no longer manage them.
He could only protect Zhang Clan Fort and Liu An County City for now.
After all, they couldn't possibly gather an entire division and attack like idiots.
The subordinate regiments would follow the orders of their major generals and attack from other directions.
Therefore, he still needed to have the necessary defensive strength.
After receiving the order, Chu Yunfei, the commander of the 3rd Battalion, quickly led his men to the direction of the One-Line-Sky and set up a simple communication command post.
"Captain, the commander of the 3rd Battalion, Chu Yunfei, has sent a telegram. The 3rd Battalion has been stationed outside the One-Line-Sky according to the order.”
Zhang Qian nodded.
"However, Battalion Commander Chu Yunfei asked if it would be more appropriate for us to station ourselves in One-Line-Sky and ambush them.”
"Tell Chu Yunfei to follow the order." Zhang Qian frowned. If he dares to disobey orders in battle, I'll come back and cut off his head!”
This was the first time the guard saw Zhang Qian lose his temper. He immediately said,""Yes, sir! Guild Leader."
It wasn't that Zhang Qian wanted to get angry, but the situation was tense. If something went wrong at this critical moment, their self-defense regiment would be in danger.
Therefore, it was necessary to give Chu Yunfei a warning at this time.
"Bring me the commanders of the 1st Battalion and Recon Battalion!”
"Yes, sir!"
The guards immediately rushed to the station.
Ten minutes later, the two battalion commanders arrived at Zhang Qian's office.
Zhang Qian looked at the two of them and was silent for a moment before asking,""This battle mission is very important. If I let you guys wipe out the entire team, are you willing?”
Their expressions changed. After a moment of silence, they said,"Don't worry, Regiment Commander. We are soldiers of the Self-Defense Regiment. We will do whatever Regiment Commander asks us to do.”
"Good job!" Zhang Qian said with a solemn expression.”
Zhang Qian came to their side and patted their shoulders.""Come here."
Arriving at the battle map in the office, Zhang Qian pointed in the direction of Frontline Sky and said,"The 3rd Battalion has already rushed to One-Line-Sky to stop the Japanese's attack. And your mission is to march quickly on a large scale to the rear of the Japanese. When the time came, they would eliminate the Japanese in Frontline Sky as quickly as possible. After the battle ended, he quickly rushed back to Liu An County.”
As the only way to enter Xishan Province from the northeast, Frontline Sky was in a very dangerous position.
Previously, they had relied on this to successfully annihilate the Japanese's Yoshikawa United.
Now that they heard Zhang Qian's mission, they instantly understood his intentions.
"This subordinate understands!"
"Your mission this time is very important." Zhang Qian nodded and said again. On your way to the north of Frontline Sky, you might encounter other Japanese troops. You have to make a decision on the spot. If they could fight, they would fight. If they could not fight, they would retreat quickly. Don't let the Japanese hold you back. Once they were delayed, the 3rd Battalion in the south of One-Line-Sky would be in danger.”
"Yes, Guild Leader, we understand.”
"Okay, then you can go now. The Japanese were less than an hour away from One-Line-Sky. Remember, you must wait until the cannon fire stops before attacking.”
"Yes, sir!"
After the battalion commanders of the 1st Battalion and the recon battalion left, Zhang Qian sat down on a chair in his office.
He began to repeat his plan in his mind to prevent any mistakes.
At the same time, Ma Shan Zhan, who was in the northern part of Xishan Province, had a grave expression on his face after receiving the telegram from Zhang Qian.
Although the number of Japanese invaders in Xishan Province was not as many as that in Xishan Province, there were still 100,000 of them.
This made Ma Shan Zhan unable to feel happy no matter what.
Apart from that, he was also very surprised that his son-in-law could obtain such information.
Since when did his submissive son-in-law have such ability?
If it wasn't for the promise he made to his father, not only would his daughter not like him, even he, Ma Shan Zhan, wouldn't like him.
Could it be that there were times when he was wrong???
