"Report to the brigade and received a telegram from the 243rd Brigade for help. Now the 10th Japanese Division is attacking Dezhou City. The current situation is at strife and the two sides are in a stalemate. Please instruct!"

As soon as the morning was dawn, Huang Hong found Yang Fan with a telegram!

"Order the troops to rush to De County immediately according to the plan they planned last night!"

Yang Fan issued an order without any hesitation. After arriving in Ling County last night, Yang Fan held a military meeting to discuss and arrange the strategic deployment to support the Dezhou front line in detail!

Yang Fan faced the opponent this time was the 10th Japanese Division, also known as Himeji Division, and the marshalling location: Himeji.

The 10th Division is a Class A Division of the Japanese Army. It was one of the 17 standing divisions of the Japanese army before the outbreak of World War II. It was well-equipped and was used as a model for the modern division by the Japanese army.

The Japanese division was originally completely imitated the German division's organization, with about 18,000 people. The division was the basic unit and it had multiple organizational structures.

However, as the war changed, many changes were made to divide it into four levels: A, B, C and D.

As a Class A Division, the 10th Division has a total of 8 corpses, including 4 infantry corpses, artillery corpses, cavalry corpses, engineer corpses, baggage corpses, etc. Together with the First Division headquarters and the two brigade units, a total of 28,200 non-combatants.

The division is equipped with 12 Type 41 mountain cannons, 36 Type 38 field cannons, 12 37mm rapid-fire anti-tank cannons, and 18 light armored vehicles.

Due to the change of division commanders, they were once called Isotani Division and Shinozuka Division. The division often violated the international law of war in combat and used poison gas warfare. It can be said that their hands were covered with blood and sin.

It has to be said that the 10th Division is a very powerful opponent, with the combat troops alone reaching 22,000. In history, a brigade once defeated Wang Mingzhang's troops in Teng County, the 63rd Regiment defeated 40,000 Yunnan troops in Yuwangshan, and in the battle of Wuhan, it broke through the Luoshan defense line guarded by Hu Zongnan and went straight to Xinyang, etc., a series of impressive results of winning with fewer and more!

Soon, Yang Fan led more than 4,000 people including the special forces, the 3rd Infantry Regiment, artillery, medical care, and supplies directly to the south of De County!

The remaining 8,000 troops were responsible for stationing Ling County, preventing the Japanese army from detouring to the south of De County to conduct an encirclement, and providing flanking protection for the Dezhou defense war!

At present, the Chinese army near Texas, including the independent brigade, only about 20,000 people, and its troops do not have an advantage!

I know the warlord nature of the boss Han, and I am very worried that after several bloody battles with the Japanese army, I will go on the old road and hang the war-free sign and take the initiative to give up the vast area north of the Yellow River. In that case, the independent brigade will be full of iron and it will be difficult for the Japanese army to escape unscathed!

Therefore, Yang Fan had to adopt a prudent strategy to leave a way out for himself!

Didn’t the great man say that he must “despise the enemy strategically and pay attention to it tactically”!

In less than two hours, the convoy arrived near the south gate of Dexian County. The extremely fierce gunfire sound could be heard from afar. It was obvious that the Dexian defenders and the Japanese army were fighting fiercely!

The majestic and ancient Texas brick city was built during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. It witnessed the vicissitudes of Texas for more than 600 years, and has endured many war baptisms, and has never bowed his head to show weakness!

Now, under the continuous attack of Japanese invading cannons, some of the city walls collapsed and turned into slope gaps!

At this time, the De County defenders' positions were severely damaged and the troops suffered heavy casualties.

The Japanese army thought that they would win the siege, so they concentrated their superior forces to cover the fire and swarmed the city at the collapse of the city wall with cannons!

However, the Japanese army far underestimated the resistance of the officers and soldiers of the 243rd Brigade and was subjected to desperate resistance from the Chinese defenders.

Starting from the early morning of this year, the Japanese army has launched offensives many times using the collapse of the city as a breakthrough point, but they were all repelled by the Chinese defenders. They paid the price of serious casualties but were unable to break through the city gate.

Yang Fan immediately jumped out of the carriage and ordered all troops to get out of the car and assemble quickly. The vacant convoy returned to Ling County, leaving only 20 trucks of baggage!

"Not good, the Japanese devils have detoured to the South Gate. Report to the brigade!"

"Oh my god, this group of Japanese devils is simply armed to the teeth. Could it be their ace force?"

"Brothers, fuck you guys, you must not let the Japanese rush into the city from our position!"

"People are in the city, people are in the city!"

Yang Fan and others made the appearance gorgeously. This instantly made the defenders in the south of De County feel like they were facing a great enemy. They firmly believed that only the Japanese would have so many trucks and troop transporters, and they were extremely well-equipped!

A full set of new combat uniforms, novel AK47 assault rifles, powerful Bazuka bazooka, shiny carbon steel helmets,... All the equipment is so luxurious that it is outrageous!

For the first time I saw such an exquisitely equipped army, the defenders of the 243rd Brigade decided that this must be the Japanese's ace force, and they had to take advantage of the stalemate of the West Gate and the North Gate to sneak attack the South Gate!

Although the enemy armed to the teeth was extremely powerful, the officers and soldiers of the 243rd Brigade were not afraid at all. They pulled the bolts and pointed the muzzle at the independent brigade not far away. As long as they dared to rush forward, they would definitely fight them to the end!

"What? The Japanese army was heading to the south of our city? Immediately ordered the 3rd Battalion of the 485th Regiment to support and support quickly! What happened to the Gaomi Independent Brigade? I arrived in Ling County yesterday. I had said that I had sent reinforcements, but there were no people yet?"

The commander of the 243rd Brigade, Major General Yun Qichang, had a deep brow. Now the west direction of the north and west of the city is being subjected to fierce artillery attacks and crazy attacks. Although the troops have carried out heroic and tenacious resistance, there are really many casualties!

Now, the Japanese devils have gone to the South Gate to open a new battlefield, which is a little worse. If they continue to consume at high intensity like this, the troops will be completely wiped out in less than two days!

The independent brigade of the Third Group Army, which had always had high hopes, not only came late, but also stayed in Ling County to set up camp and set up a camp without coming to De County to assist in the defense as soon as possible!

If Yang Fan had not made such a big name and created a series of war miracles, Yun Qichang would have suspected that the Independent Brigade was mobilizing the United States to preserve its strength!

"Dear brothers from the 243rd Brigade, don't get me wrong! We are the Gaomi Independent Brigade and come to support the War of Resistance under the order of Chairman Han. Please open the city gate quickly!"

Seeing this posture, Yang Fan and others really couldn't smile bitterly. They rushed to support the fight against the Japanese, but were misunderstood by their own people!

"Hey, are you the legendary independent brigade?"

"No way? Why do you look similar to the Japanese?"

"Oh my God, I'm really my own!"

"Haha, a false alarm! Gaomi Independent Brigade is Niu Pi, this is so scary!"

"Hurry, don't be standing there! Why don't you open the door and let your friendly brothers come in quickly, our reinforcements have finally arrived!"

With the patient explanation from Yang Fan and others, Colonel Chen Yannian, the leader of the 485th Regiment, personally climbed the city wall to verify, and the misunderstanding was eliminated!

The tense atmosphere that was originally fried at a glance instantly turned into joy. With such a tiger and wolf who can fight against the Japanese like chopping melons and vegetables, it is still unstable in Dexian?

"Architecture troops, immediately choose a suitable place in the city to build artillery positions! The special operations brigade follows me to support the West Gate, and the 3rd regiment supports the North Gate, let's fight the Japanese back first!"

After entering the city, Yang Fan directly ordered the troops to enter the state of combat without Moji, and the troops divided into two groups to head towards the two battlefields where the battle was fierce!
Chapter completed!
