As Beizha County was recaptured by the Chinese army, the island army quickly mobilized its troops in an attempt to re-occupate Beizha County.

More than a thousand island troops gathered from several directions such as Jincheng County, Qizhuang County and other directions to launch a tentative attack on Beizha County, but were all repelled by the 690th Regiment, which was waiting for battle.

It was not a particularly large-scale battle. Apart from the rampant bomb drops of enemy planes flying over Beizha County, causing certain casualties among the military and civilians in Beizha County, the battle was not fierce.

But this undercurrent under the superficial "calm" indicates that the war is coming...

On the 27th, the 26th Infantry Brigade of the Island Army of Tokushige, the 26th Infantry Brigade of the Island Kingdom, and the 61st Independent Mixed Brigade was responsible for cutting off the Chinese army's reinforcements to Beizha County.

On the 28th, Zheng Yong, commander-in-chief of the Third War Zone of China, Xue Yue, deputy commander-in-chief, and chief of staff Jiang Baili appeared together at the command center of the Sixth War Zone of the Third War Zone. The combat staff member Fang Yuxi, who had newly joined the General Command, also appeared.

"What's the situation?" As soon as he entered the command center of the Sixth Division War Zone, Zheng Yong asked straight to the point without any greetings.

"I heard that the 689th Regiment, which had reinforced, encountered obstacles in advance? And there were some casualties?"

"Yes." Situ Tianrui said bluntly.

"The Island Army suddenly strengthened its attack on Beizha County, with the 26th Infantry Brigade preparing to launch an attack, and the 61st Independent Mixed Brigade was responsible for intercepting our reinforcements. The 689th Regiment rushed several times. With the cooperation of aircraft and cannons, the enemy repelled the 689th Regiment's charge several times. Now our headquarters is thinking of a way. I will pull another regiment up when necessary."

"Is it a war of attrition again?" Zheng Yong touched his chin and said to himself.

Now both China and Japan are somewhat taboo about the war of attrition. In the years of battles, a large number of soldiers fell on the battlefield, and the degree of losses has gradually approached the psychological bottom line of both sides. In this case, everyone seemed to have a tacit understanding and tried to avoid the early progress of the battle.

Especially for Zheng Yong, everything is not yet complete, and the island army has absolute advantage in sea, land and air. Once a major battle breaks out early, the damage to the Chinese army will inevitably reach an astonishing level. In previous battles, the casualties between both sides have always been an astonishing number.

But now the actual situation is that Beizha County has cut off the transportation line of the island army, and the 690th Regiment in Beizha County has also been cut off from the outside world at the same time.

According to previous estimates, the problem of the 690th Regiment's persistence in Beizha County for seven to ten days is still not great, and then it can launch a series of attacks one after another, restoring more than ten nearby counties centered on Beizha County, completely cutting off the deployment of the island military, and gaining the maximum time for the final decisive war. However, in the current situation, it seems that this combat goal is no longer realistic.

The island army reacted very quickly this time, and the mobilization of love troops was very different from before.

First, a small force was used to conduct a tentative attack, and then suddenly dispatched the main force to fight in both ends. The intention was very obvious. In addition to regaining Beizha County and opening up the traffic line, the 690th Regiment had to be eaten in one bite.

"I think the island army not only wants to kill our 690th Regiment, but also very likely to take this opportunity to carry out large-scale operations." Fang Yuxi, who had been silent on the side, suddenly said.

Zheng Yong glanced at him: "Speak."

"The rainy season in the Jiangnan region is over. After October, it is very suitable for large-scale attacks in terms of climate, but I judge that the island army has always been undecided to put the main battlefield there, and this time it just gave them such an opportunity."

Fang Yuxi calmed down, glanced at the general in the room, and said.

"Before, we had already given the enemy a heavy blow to the Eastern Front, and the main forces of the island army were placed on the Western Front. Therefore, it would be a big deal to dispatch troops to the Eastern Front to fight again, and unexpected problems may even occur, causing chaos in the troops.

Please see, this line of island troops was originally well deployed and echoed each other, but the loss of Beizha County caused a gap, and the island troops would inevitably retake it. At the same time, taking advantage of this opportunity, we can also confuse us and quietly mobilize our troops. Once Beizha County is in their hands again, it will be time for the Japanese invaders to launch a large-scale attack again..."

He talked and looked very calm.

Zheng Yong looked at the location he pointed to on the map for a while and asked.

"If you were the commander-in-chief of the Third War Zone, how would you deal with this?"

"Yes!" Fang Yuxi was not at all stage frightened: "Since the end of the Eastern Front, the 111th Division was transferred to the Western Front, and the other main divisions were being repaired on the Eastern Front. Before, in order to confuse the enemy, our army also mobilized a large number of troops. I think we can fight against the island army on the Western Front, looking for opportunities to defeat the enemy's offensive!

The western front is mostly water grid terrain, which is completely unsuitable for the mechanized forces of the island nation army. However, before, our navy was wiped out. The island nation army could take off directly from the river surface and bombard me with air superiority. I looked at the information and could even fly directly to the front line within a few minutes to bomb. I think this is also the purpose of the island nation army's choice of the decisive battle on the western front.

According to my ideas, in this upcoming decisive battle, our army does not have to concentrate all its forces together to fight a tragic offensive and defensive battle with the island army. This is exactly what the island army headquarters welcomes. I think the power should be dispersed, and the war zones should be divided again in detail, and the war zones should be fought independently by each sub-war zone, using the complex terrain here to wait for an opportunity to attack the enemy..."

"Distribute the forces and fight independently in each section of the war zone?"

Zheng Yong kept repeating these sentences, looked at Fang Yuxi, and found that the young man's eyes were very confident. He glanced at Jiang Baili next to him and saw that the Chief of Staff nodded to him.

"You can consider it. Situ Tianrui, order your division to continue to maintain an offensive against the island army. I will transfer two divisions to you and you will be in charge of the unified command. At the same time, I will send Lu Yuzhang to try to defend Beizha County to the specified time, but when necessary, you can give up the county town and find a favorable opportunity to break through. Order the 689th Regiment to keep in touch with the 690th Regiment at any time to facilitate the response."

"yes!"

Situ Tianrui responded loudly. The order that should have been issued by himself was directly spoken from the commander-in-chief, but the 111th Division is the commander-in-chief, so it is nothing to take care of it. Especially for the 690th Regiment, several regiment commanders have always been known for being able to fight tough battles and fierce battles. If any problem really occurs, it will definitely be a heavy blow to the morale of the entire division.

"Okay, we will make preparations separately. The Chief of Staff and the Deputy Commander-in-Chief continue to formulate specific combat plans. By the way, Fang Yuxi, you can stay here, and see if there is anything that can help."

Zheng Yong said as he walked out: "I'll go and see the situation of the troops. I haven't seen it for a long time when I've seen it..."

He went directly to the 689th Regiment, which was the closest position to the island army and the most dangerous place. A shell came over. If it were a coincidence, the commander-in-chief of the Third War Zone would have been afraid that he would die for his country at that time.

However, Zheng Yong didn't think there was anything to worry about. He came over the rain of bullets. He didn't die in the Northeast, the Great Wall, and Shanghai. Similarly, he wouldn't die here either.

No matter how I have to live to the day when the Japanese pirates surrender...

The 689th Regiment had obviously just launched an attack, and the new regiment commander Yang Mieri was redeploying the battle with his unique voice.

"Yang Miri!"

The sound from behind made Yang Miori very unhappy and wanted to lose his temper. When he saw that it was the old boss who came, he hurriedly ran up and saluted, his body straightened.

"Commander-in-Chief, why are you here? The plane of the Island Army is about to come and bomb. Please leave immediately!"

"Damn it, when I was bombed by an island-born plane in Shenyang, you were still being beaten by those profiteers." Zheng Yong cursed, accompanied Yang Mieri, who was smiling, came down to the position and looked for a while and said.

"What's going on across the street now?"

"The island people have strong artillery fire and very combat experience. They are placed in the front wing and have a good defense. Not to mention that I only have one regiment, even if there is another regiment, I don't think I can attack..."

Yang Mieri, who had always fought bravely, rarely said such disheartening words.

"In order to avoid losses, I have ordered my subordinates to temporarily stop the frontal attack and look for opportunities from the flanks. However, even if we can make some breakthroughs, if we lack necessary support, we will still be defeated by the Japanese, and even be surrounded by most of the Japanese. Commander-in-chief, I think there is no way to attack for the moment."

Zheng Yong nodded. He admired the openness of this subordinate. It was a bit of a dream to use a regiment to break through the defense of a brigade of the island army.

He took the telescope and looked at the opposite island army's position for a while. As Yang Mieri said, the island army had very strict defenses and could hardly find any place to break through from the front.

If you want to break through this place, you must pull all the 111th Division up.

"Is there anything wrong with Beizha County?" Zheng Yong frowned and asked, frowned.

"The plane exploded very hard, and a batch was dispatched almost every hour. I guess Lu Yuzhang was so bad." Yang Miri hesitated for a moment.

"I received a telegram in the morning that the island army launched several attacks on Beizha County. Although they were all repelled, the 690th Regiment suffered heavy casualties. If we continue to fight like this, Lu Yuzhang's regiment must be left there."

"I have ordered him to retreat when necessary." Zheng Yong's face was grim: "But according to Lu Yuzhang's order, if he did not give a death order, he would definitely not withdraw. This kid has a bad temper and likes to compete with himself..."

That's what he said, but I hoped that Lu Yuzhang could persevere.

If you persist for one more day, the island army will not be able to calmly mobilize troops. On the contrary, you can use this period of time to deploy troops to complete strategic mobilization and launch a final decisive battle with the island army.

"I hope the guitarist will have its own celestial phenomena." Yang Mieri said quietly.
