After half an hour, suddenly, the frontline headquarters of Madang Fortress called.
"Tuan Zuo, Commander Chen of the 9th War Zone is on the phone!"
When Li Hong heard Chen Xiuping's call, he immediately put down the pen in his hand and stopped working on the map.
He took the call from the communication soldier, and said respectfully: "Mr. Chen, I am Li Hong, please give me instructions!"
"Li Hong, your security regiment fought beautifully in the Battle of Nanshan! Not only did your regiment regain the ground, but it also severely weakened the spirit of the Japanese army, navy, air force and army. It really gave us Chinese soldiers a face!"
Chen Xiuping praised Li Hong for a few words, and then continued with a smile: "I just received a secret report that the Japanese army was beaten by your regiment. The enemy was defeated, and they didn't even know that the opponent was you, Li Hong. , Neiji Okamura is yelling at the headquarters."
The little devils guarding the Nanshan position were wiped out, and the Japanese fleet cruising in the river was completely defeated, and even the devils suffered considerable losses in the air.
The Japanese army was hit so hard, but the enemy didn't even know that the opponent who hit them hard was the security regiment. The commanders of the Japanese army, army, army and air force were all investigating each other and asking about the number of the opponent's troops.
It's not that the little devil is not well informed, the key is that the Japanese army suffered a crushing defeat, and there was no one alive on the ground, which hindered the Japanese army's intelligence.
"Mr. Chen, our security team was able to take the position so smoothly, thanks to the cooperation of your troops." Li Hong didn't mean to put a high hat on Chen Xiuping, he was telling the truth.
Although Chen Xiuping's troops did not directly participate in the battle at the Nanshan position, Chen Xiuping ordered his troops to surround the Japanese army at the Madang Fortress, which made it impossible for the Botian detachment to reinforce the Nanshan position.
If Chen Xiuping's troops hadn't been on the periphery of the position to deter the Japanese troops trying to reinforce them, the security regiment would not have been able to take the position so smoothly.
Chen Xiuping said on the phone in a calm tone: "Li Hong, I have something to inform you in advance. Tonight my troops will launch a full-scale attack on the Madang Fortress. I hope your troops can cooperate with our counterattack in time!"
Li Hong responded solemnly to the other party: "Mr. Chen, don't worry, my troops have established a three-dimensional defense line in the Nanshan position. I can assure you with my head that as long as the members of our security team are still alive, the reinforcements of the Japanese army will absolutely Can’t reach Madang Fortress!”
"Okay, Li Hong, I feel relieved with your words, and I will give you credit for taking down the horse fortress!"
After speaking, Chen Xiuping hung up the phone.
The just-concluded Battle of Nanshan and the Battle of Counterattack at Madang required the close cooperation of both sides. If one side refused to contribute or avoided the battle, the counterattack against Madang Fortress would be a failure!
Chapter 758 Cooperate with friendly forces to recapture Madang ([-])
During the Battle of Nanshan, Chen Xiuping's troops did not play vainly only to preserve their strength, and Li Hong would naturally cooperate with the friendly forces in the 9th theater with all his strength.
In order to cooperate with the friendly army's counterattack at night, Li Hong sent a special force team of 20 people to support the friendly army.
The counterattack against Madang was a large-scale battle. Don't underestimate the 20-member special forces team. The special forces team can give great help to friendly forces at critical moments.
The cliffs with a height of tens of meters are difficult for ordinary soldiers to climb up to the sky, but climbing the cliffs of the high mountains is a piece of cake for the special forces of the security regiment.
Li Hong walked outside the fortification and looked at the fully armed special forces soldiers in front of him. Immediately, he packed each soldier's luggage.
"Brothers, war is cruel, and bloodshed is inevitable. Listen to me, twenty of you present today. I give you an order. All of you must come back safely!"
"Yes, Tuan Zuo, we promise to complete the task!!!"
"Okay, brothers, when you come back, I will invite all of you to drink!" Li Hong patted his subordinates on the shoulder and looked at the soldiers with concern.
"Thank you for the seat!!!"
"Everyone, go!"
The soldiers of the Special Forces took their weapons and equipment, quickly left the position, and went to the front line of the Madang Fortress.
After the soldiers of the Special Forces left, Li Hong looked at the time on his watch, and then led the guards to inspect the position.
Now it has just entered dusk, the time is only a few minutes past seven, and the sky has not yet completely darkened.
There was still about an hour before the 9th theater counterattacked the Madang Fortress. Although the security team had stabilized their foothold in the Nanshan position, Li Hong still did not dare to take it lightly.
The soldiers of the security regiment stood firm on their respective positions, gathering together in twos and threes to eat dry food.
Li Hong looked around on the ground, carefully inspecting every corner.
The Nanshan position is only five kilometers away from the Yangtze River. To the west of Nanshan is the tidal flat by the river, and the tidal flat by the river is a large densely growing reed marsh.
The reeds are nearly two meters high, and the visibility is poor at night. If there are hundreds of people hiding in the reeds, they will not be found at all.
There are such dense reeds on the periphery of the position, which quickly attracted Li Hong's attention.
The devil commander is not a fool, such a good attack on the natural barrier, it is impossible for the enemy not to know how to use the environment.
If the devil's reinforcements really got into the reeds, they could suddenly attack the Nanshan position, or avoid the sight of the defenders, and quietly bypass the Nanshan blockade to reinforce the Japanese army in the Madang Fortress.
"Communication soldier!"
"Here, regiment seat!" The communications soldier walked up to Li Hong.
"Immediately give an order to the engineering company of the first battalion, let the engineers bring mines, and arrange some mines along the reeds on the tidal flats by the river!"
"Yes, group seat!"
In order to ensure a complete position, Li Hong not only arranged for engineers to lay mines, but also dispatched a company of soldiers to deploy defenses near the river's tidal flats.
……
As night fell, the banks of the Yangtze River were plunged into darkness.
On the north bank of the Yangtze River, the headquarters of the 106th Division of the Japanese Army.
The 106th Division of the Japanese Army is the Type A Division of the Japanese Army, under the jurisdiction of the 111th Infantry Brigade and the 117th Brigade, and the number of the entire division is nearly 3.
Originally, the Devil's 106th Division took over the Nanshan position and the Madang Fortress position, but the Japanese army came a step too late, and the position fell into the hands of the security regiment.
A group of Japanese military officers sat on both sides of the conference table at the division headquarters with serious faces, and the Japanese officers of the 106th Division were having a military meeting.
Matsuura Ichitaro, head of the Japanese division, was very annoyed when he heard that the Nanshan position was lost. At this time, his face was very ugly.
"Baga Road, the defenders of the Nanshan position are really a bunch of trash. They occupy a favorable terrain and the fortifications are so strong. It is a shame for the Imperial Army to lose their position within a few hours..."
Not only the old devil Matsuura didn't expect the position to fall so quickly, but the rest of the devil officers and generals also didn't expect that their defenders were so vulnerable.
The Nanshan position is the outpost of the Madang Fortress, an important strategic place, and it is also a battleground between China and Japan.
The loss of the Nanshan position directly led to the isolation of the Botian detachment, and the battle situation became more and more unfavorable to the Japanese army.
In order to recapture Bengbu Town, the Sagawa Alliance has been recruiting and dispatching boats to cross the river during the day, making preparations for crossing the river in advance.
Matsuura Ichitaro stood at the conference table with an angry face, and asked a devil intelligence officer with lingering anger.
"Which part of the Chinese army is occupying the Nanshan position? Why are they so powerful?"
The Japanese military intelligence officer shook his head, and replied: "Reporting to your Excellency, the commander of the division, I have not found any information about the defenders of Nanshan China for the time being..."
"Baga Road!!!"
