Fifth War Zone Command, War Room.

After dinner, the Operations Director and Deputy Chief of Staff continued to pay attention to the war situation in Nanchang.

Guo Xuejia, director of the confidential office, brought three telegrams at once and said: "Report to the attendance, the 57th Division, the 58th Division and the 112th Division, according to your instructions, sent a statistics on the casualties. Please check it out."

The deputy chief of staff received the telegram. After reading it, he frowned and said, "The Japanese army surrounded in the Sanhezhuang area is very tenacious. Our army launched many attacks, but they were all repelled, with a lot of casualties. The three divisions combined have more than a thousand casualties. I didn't expect this group of Japanese troops to be so difficult to fight."

The Operations Director said: "Yes, these surrounded Japanese troops are just the special division units of the 106th Division of the Japanese army, which are so tenacious in the Japanese army. Mr. Gao and others are facing the first-class Japanese combat troops like the 3rd Division of the Japanese permanent division. They only have one supplementary regiment. At best, less than 1,500 people are now. Can they resist the Japanese attack? What I worry most is their place."

The deputy chief of staff said: "Didn't Director Feng of the MIIS send a liaison officer to the supplementary regiment? Why hasn't the news come here yet?"

The Operations Director immediately said to a combat staff officer: "Go and invite Director Feng."

Director Feng was confident in Gao Jiu. The current battle situation in Nanchang was very beneficial to the guo army. The guo army surrounded the Japanese army in the Sanhezhuang area with heavy troops. As long as Gao Jiu could block the Japanese reinforcements, thousands of Japanese troops would be wiped out sooner or later under the siege of tens of thousands of guo troops.

As for Qin Feng's news, he was even less worried. He felt that unless there was a special situation, Qin Feng would send a telegram to ask for help or instructions.

At this moment, Director Feng was sitting on the sofa in the office, tasting tea and leisurely enjoying his leisure time after the meal.

The combat staff sent by the Operations Director came over and asked Director Feng to go to the combat room. Director Feng guessed that he was probably going to ask Gao Jiu about the news, because their Military Intelligence Department was responsible for intelligence and there was no need to go to the combat room to be on duty. At present, there was probably nothing to ask Director Feng for his work except this matter.

Director Feng has not received the telegram now, and he feels it’s not interesting to go there, so he is a little reluctant to go there. He asked, “Did your Director ask me to go there? What’s the matter?”

The combat staff was worried that Director Feng would not be able to go there, so he couldn't submit a job when he went back, so he said in the name of Deputy Chief of Staff: "I don't know very well, it was the Deputy Chief of Staff who invited you to come."

The deputy chief of staff is Director Feng's immediate superior, and Director Feng must go. Director Feng was helpless. He said to the combat staff: "You go first, I will come back."

Director Feng left the office and came to the telecommunications room of the confidential department. After seeing Lin Yanni, he said, "Secretary Lin, I'm going to the headquarters war room now. If there is any news about Mr. Gao and the others, you can go directly to the war room to find me."

Lin Yanni asked, "Saturday, do you want me to send a telegram to ask?"

Director Feng shook his head and said, "No need. If Mr. Gao and his friends didn't have a telegram, it means there is nothing wrong with them, so there is no need to add pressure to them."

Lin Yanni was slightly disappointed when she heard this because she was worried about Gao Jiu and always wanted to understand the situation there. She said this just now, a bit of a false public service for personal gain. In addition to inquiries about the situation, she also wanted to communicate with Gao Jiu.

She said helplessly: "Yes, I know."

Director Feng came to the war room. As soon as the Director of Operations saw him, he hurriedly asked: "Director Feng, is there any news about Mr. Gao and the others? Where did the Japanese reinforcements go?"

Director Feng shook his head and said, "There is no news. Since Qin Feng reported last time that the Japanese army had crossed the big and small Chenzhuang, no telegram has been sent."

The Operations Director said with some complaint: "Mr. Gao and the others are really there. Why don't you inform us of the information in time?"

Director Feng said easily: "I think this is a good thing, which means that there is no difficulty for Mr. Gao and the others. Otherwise, they would definitely inform the news."

The deputy chief of staff now has confidence in Gao Jiu. He felt that Director Feng’s words made sense, nodded and said, “I also think this should be the case.”

The Operations Director insisted: "No matter what, it is related to the overall situation. Mr. Gao and the others should inform the Japanese reinforcements at any time. Director Feng, why don't you send a telegram to ask?"

Director Feng disagreed with his opinion and said, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate. Mr. Gao is not from our fifth war zone. He has already promised to block the reinforcements of the Japanese. Let's ask again, isn't it obvious that he doesn't trust others?"

The Operations Director said dissatisfiedly: "These are two things. Ask about the situation so that the theater command can understand what is wrong with this? Aren't there any liaison officers in your department there? Isn't you just send them the telegram and ask them to report the situation, right?"

During the war, people will inevitably be worried about gains and losses. After being told by the Director of Operations, the Deputy Chief of Staff felt a little uneasy. He said to Director Feng: "I also feel it is necessary to send a telegram to ask if you are prepared."

The deputy chief of staff spoke, but Director Feng was not willing to refuse him. He said, "Okay. I'll go back now and send a telegram to inquire about the situation."

Director Feng returned to the MIIS and asked Lin Yanni to send a telegram to Qin Feng. Lin Yanni was very happy and immediately sent the telegram in person. However, she did not send the telegram to Qin Feng, but sent the telegram directly to Gao Jiu.

At this time, it was when the Japanese army launched an attack on the supplementary regiment, and the result of the battle was not seen for a while. Therefore, Gao Jiu did not reply to Lin Yanni.

Lin Yanni waited for half an hour and couldn't help but worry. She sent another telegram to Qin Feng, but Qin Feng also did not reply.

Now, Lin Yanni was a little anxious, so she came to Director Feng's office and said uneasy: "Saturday, the telegram has been sent, but neither Mr. Gao nor Section Chief Qin have called back."

Now, Director Feng couldn't sit still anymore, and he said, "Continue to contact them."

After saying that, Director Feng came to the headquarters war room again.

After listening to Director Feng's report, the Deputy Chief of Staff frowned. He was a little confused and didn't know what to say.

The combat director said directly: "Things are not good. Will there be any problems? The Japanese reinforcements have defeated the supplementary regiment and are heading towards Nanchang?

Mr. Gao is really. Even if he can't stop the Japanese army, he still has to reply. He has to report to the War Zone Command whether he is dead or alive, so that he can have time to prepare for the situation.

Alas, Mr. Gao is born in a rash family, and his military knowledge is still a little worse. Director Feng, you are really, Mr. Gao is not a professional soldier and does not understand the rules. Why don’t the liaison officers you sent to send a telegram to the War Zone Command?”

The Operations Director is also a well-educated person and would not say such offending people in normal times. However, he had always been unfavorable to the battle in Nanchang and suggested that the battle be cancelled. He always believed that it was too hasty to base this battle on whether Gao Jiu could block the reinforcements of the Japanese.

If the Nanchang battle is not going well, or it is completely failed, it will have a significant impact on the defense situation in the southeast of the Fifth War Zone. It will be even worse for the already bad situation in the Wuhan battle. As the director of the combat, he will inevitably be a little anxious and his emotions are affected, so he will behave in a bit improper.

Director Feng didn't like to listen to this, and he wanted to refute the Director of Operations, but without Gao Jiu's news, he didn't know where to start. He looked at the Director of Operations dissatisfaction and turned his face to the side.

At this time, the Chief of Staff came over.

The Operations Director hurried forward and reported: "Mr. Gao can't contact you anymore. Now the Japanese reinforcements have arrived. Once the Japanese reinforcements arrive at Sanhezhuang, the Guo army troops there will be in danger."

The deputy chief of staff also said: "I am the one who is the battle situation in Nanchang. What I worry most about is the Japanese reinforcements, which are the troops of the Japanese Third Division. Although Mr. Gao is brave and good at fighting, the troops he leads are all supplementary regiments of new recruits. How can he stop the Japanese reinforcements?

If it was so easy to stop, I think Wu Tianming from the 62nd Division would not give up on the big or small village. Do you think you should adjust the battle deployment and prepare for the troops in Sanhezhuang to retreat?"

After hearing this, the chief of staff looked a little unfair. This time he was originally going to discuss the new combat plan proposed by Gao Jiu and him, and the combat plan proposed by Gao Jiu was based on being able to block the Japanese reinforcements and annihilate the besieged Japanese troops in Sanhezhuang. If the Japanese reinforcements broke through the defense line set by Gao Jiu, there was no way to talk about it.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Director Feng, please send another telegram to contact Mr. Gao."

The Operations Director said: "I suggest that the 57th Division, which is guarding southeast of Sanhezhuang, send people to the direction of Nanfeng Mountain to reconnaise the movements of the Japanese army, and at the same time, prepare for defense in the direction of Nanfeng Mountain."

The Chief of Staff nodded and said, "It's good to be prepared for any trouble. OK! You can arrange these things."

The Chief of Staff's emotions were affected a little, and he felt a little weak when he spoke.

Director Feng was helpless and had to walk towards the Military Information Department again. He walked a few steps away and saw Lin Yanni walking into the war room. Director Feng first checked Lin Yanni's face and wanted to know if it was good news.

As expected, Lin Yanni had a small face full of spring breeze, looking so beautiful. His heart immediately calmed down, stopped, and waited for Lin Yanni to come.

Lin Yanni handed the telegram to Director Feng and was about to turn around and leave, the Chief of Staff greeted: "Lin Yanni, come on."

Director Feng and Lin Yanni came to the front of the Chief of Staff and others.

Director Feng had already glanced at the content of the telegram in a hurry. He looked excited and did not make a verbal report. He directly handed the telegram to the Chief of Staff.

After reading the telegram, the chief of staff smiled and handed it to the deputy chief of staff. The deputy chief of staff took it and said, "Jun Jian, the chief of the Fifth War Zone, is a reinforcement corps of the reinforcements of the Japanese Third Division, after crossing the Big and Xiao Chenzhuang, he attacks and advances towards Nanfeng Mountain.

Our army harassed the Japanese army with small troops along the way, delaying the Japanese army's advance speed, annihilated more than a hundred enemies on the way, delaying the Japanese army until dusk before reaching the Nanfeng Mountains.

Our army used the training headquarters supplementary regiment to build 1,300 people, the 58th Division Guard Battalion and the 62nd Division, and a total of 1,500 troops to destroy the roads at the foot of the mountain and build a defensive position on Nanfeng Mountain. Among them, the supplementary regiment was used as the main force, and the rest of the troops were used as the reserve team.

At 6:20 pm, the Japanese army dispatched four squadrons to attack our army. After more than an hour of fierce fighting, the officers and soldiers of the Supplementary Regiment fought bloody battles, repelled the Japanese attack, annihilated hundreds of enemies, and then launched harassment against the enemy. The enemy was forced to temporarily withdraw from the Nanfeng Mountain area. The Supplementary Regiment suffered 132 casualties, and the main combat strength was not affected.

Please rest assured that our army is confident that we will stay in the Nanfeng Mountains for ten days.

Qin Feng, head of the Operations Section of the 9th War Zone, will be here today.”

After reading the telegram, the deputy chief of staff fell silent for a while, and everyone was shocked.

Finally, the deputy chief of staff broke the silence. He said excitedly: "I never thought that the supplementary regiment, which was defeated by less than 200 Japanese troops on the Xinfeng River Bridge not long ago, was able to turn defeat into victory, defeated a Japanese infantry brigade, annihilated more than 500 enemies. Now it can actually block the attack of a strengthening regiment of the Japanese Third Division. With such a big change in such a short time, it has been incredible that the combat effectiveness has been improved to this level."

The Chief of Staff also said with emotion: "The supplementary regiment is still the same supplementary regiment, but it was just a commander. Mr. Gao is indeed well-deserved."

Director Feng was very proud and looked at Director Feng with a slight sarcastic sarcastic meaning: Mr. Gao is the one I recommend, you have been slapped in the face this time.

The Operations Director was really convinced now. He didn't care about Director Feng's gaze and said, "Mr. Gao is indeed an excellent commander. I will take back what I said just now. Mr. Gao is not only a professional soldier, but also far better than most professional soldiers."

The Chief of Staff now has no doubt about Gao Jiu’s suggestion. He said cordially to Lin Yanni: "Yanni, if you send a telegram to Mr. Gao, you say that I agree with his opinion and start implementing that plan now. Also, from now on, don’t worry about anything else, and only be responsible for contacting Mr. Gao."

"Yes, I'll take a seat." Lin Yanni said.

The Chief of Staff said: "You ask Mr. Gao if you need weapons and ammunition? If necessary, the War Zone Command can help him solve the problem."

Lin Yanni smiled and said, "Reporting to the seat, the problem of weapons and ammunition has been solved by Mr. Gao himself, so you don't have to worry about it."

The Chief of Staff felt a little confused. He looked at Lin Yanni and suddenly understood that it must be this little girl who helped Gao Jiu solve the problem of weapons and ammunition through his father. He smiled and said, "You are a good child, go and do your business."

Lin Yanni stood attentively and said, "Yes."

After saying that, she was in a happy mood and left with brisk steps.

The Chief of Staff had made up his mind to implement the plan he discussed with Gao Jiu. He said, "Everyone, I have something important to discuss with you. Come with me to the small conference room."

The Deputy Chief of Staff, Director of Operations and Director Feng were very clear about the current changes in the battle situation. Everyone didn't know what the Chief of Staff was going to say, but they all guessed that what they were going to say seemed to have something to do with Gao Jiu. Everyone followed the Chief of Staff into the small conference room next to the war room with a suspicious look.

Before entering the conference room, the Chief of Staff said to a major staff officer: "You are guarding this door, and no one is allowed to come in without my orders."

Everyone was nervous when they saw the Chief of Staff solemnly that something important was about to happen.

After entering the conference room, Director Feng, who was walking behind, closed the door and everyone sat down around the table.
