The war has reached this point. We dare not mobilize the reserve troops easily. They are the most precious steel that will be used on the blade!
It must not be mobilized unless it is a critical moment.
However, isn't this the most critical moment? The Japanese army's move seems a bit risky, but in fact, there is an absolute guarantee of winning by surprise. This also shows that the Japanese army has weighed the pros and cons and made up their minds to take this gamble after careful consideration.
Moreover, it is our side that knows this top-secret information. If we didn’t know it, can you imagine the consequences?
Once the gap in Hongxing Town is opened, the Japanese army can take advantage of the situation to advance westward and penetrate into the central area where its military strength is the weakest, and the consequences will be disastrous.
Gao Tianshui knew that Dai Sheng's intelligence was absolutely trustworthy, so he made a prompt decision and decided to transfer two heavy reserve brigades to the rear of the Red Star Town garrison under the cover of night. In addition, in order to achieve a quick victory, he also transferred two regiments from nearby positions to join the team that ambushed the Japanese airdrop division.
With this decision in mind, Gao Tianshui once again asked the head of the Ministry of National Defense's confidential telecommunications group to issue the order directly to the person in charge using an encrypted code to prevent the leakage of secrets.
Thus, an invisible and secret battle quietly began in the dark night.
The battle of ambush and counter-ambush was advancing rapidly without anyone noticing.
Time is ticking and spinning non-stop, as if it is racing with someone.
At eleven o'clock, the phone on Gao Tianshui's desk suddenly rang.
"Jingle Bell!"
Several deputy ministers and a dozen combat staff officers all looked back, as if they had a premonition that something big was about to happen.
"Hey!"
Gao Tianshui picked up the phone and asked with fear.
"Report to the Minister! The 23rd Regiment stationed in Xizhang Village suddenly disappeared. What should we do?"
An extremely frightened voice came from the phone.
Gao Tianshui's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. Damn it! It was really not that easy to keep a secret, so he immediately ordered loudly:
"Shut up! Don't tell anyone about this. Anyone who knows about this must sign a confidentiality agreement immediately. I'm not allowed to leave your side. Also, be on high alert. If you encounter a violent attack, you must personally go into battle and hold your position. Otherwise, I'll hand you over to a military court."
"Ah? Yes! Please rest assured, Minister Gao Gao! I will absolutely keep the secret and firmly defend my position."
There was a sound of shock on the phone, a voice that was a little bewildered, as if some important secret had been violated, and then he suddenly realized and answered.
Gao Tianshui then put down the phone with a heavy face.
Upon hearing this, several deputy ministers realized that Minister Gao had secretly issued an order, so they turned around and began to study the topographic map on the sand table again.
Everyone secretly turned their eyes to Red Star Town.
At 11:10, there was chaos in the Hongxing Town position. More than a dozen large aircraft roared over the heads of the Nationalist troops stationed in Hongxing Town, and all the soldiers were frightened and hid everywhere.
Some even raised their machine guns, ready to fire into the air.
However, the plane merely flew overhead, circled in the sky about 50 kilometers away from the position for a while, and then flashed its signal lights on and off and returned the same way.
This made Cao Xinyu, the highest commander of the Red Star Garrison, puzzled. He picked up the phone and immediately reported to Gao Tianshui of the Ministry of National Defense.
"I order you not to move. No matter what happens behind you, you must not care. Your mission is to resolutely repel every crazy attack of the Japanese army, firmly defend your position, and not retreat a single step."
After hearing this, the escort Gao Tianshui was overjoyed, as it meant that Dai Sheng's intelligence was accurate and they were sure to win the anti-ambush battle again.
"Yes!"
After hearing Gao Tianshui's order, Cao Xinyu responded and hung up the phone.
He immediately went to the front line to stabilize the morale of the troops and raise their vigilance.
Just when Cao Xinyu inspected the position and ordered all troops to enter the first level of combat readiness so that they could strike back at the fierce attack of the Japanese army at any time, gunfire suddenly broke out 50 kilometers to the rear.
The sound of machine guns and the continuous and violent explosions of grenades came one after another, forming a continuous sound.
“Da da da… boom boom boom… bang bang bang…”
Hearing such a high density of gunfire, Cao Xinyu was stunned!
"Commander! What's going on?" Someone nearby looked at Cao Xinyu and asked anxiously.
"Who is fighting fiercely? Should we go to support them?"
Someone else asked anxiously.
Cao Xinyu said nothing, thinking back to Gao Tianshui's words, and finally gave a decisive order:
"Listen to my orders! No matter what happens next, it has nothing to do with us. Our mission is to resolutely repel the crazy attack that the Japanese army may launch at any time. Do you understand?"
"I understand!"
All the soldiers responded in unison and turned to enter the battlefield.
The highest commander of the Japanese Red Star Garrison, Colonel Aono, issued combat orders to all officers after seeing the successful airdrop:
"I have good news for you all. The dozen or so planes that just landed have completed the task of airdropping a division behind the Red Star Garrison. All troops must immediately prepare for battle. As soon as twelve o'clock arrives, they will launch a fierce attack on the Chinese Red Star Garrison. Together with our airdrop division, they will attack from both sides and completely wipe out the Chinese Red Star Garrison."
"Hayi!"
All the high-ranking Japanese officers responded in unison and returned to their respective positions with fiery eyes.
However, just as they left, fierce gunfire suddenly rang out from the direction of the Japanese Airborne Division.
"How is this going?"
Hisuichi Rikuto had not yet returned to the defense line he was responsible for. When he heard the gunshots, he immediately returned to the command center and asked Colonel Aono.
Colonel Aono was also confused. How could the fight have started when the agreed time had not yet arrived? Was there an ambush?
When Colonel Aono thought of this, his heart skipped a beat. If there was an ambush, it would be bad, and the airborne division would probably be caught in the trap.
He looked at the time. It was less than fifteen minutes before twelve o'clock. He could not wait any longer. He had to launch a fierce attack immediately, tear open a gap, and rescue the airborne division.
Thinking of this, Colonel Aono immediately gave a loud order:
"All troops, listen up! Launch a fierce attack on the Chinese army. Break through a gap and join the airborne division to wipe out all the Chinese troops! Attack!"
Following Colonel Aono's order, the entire Red Star Town position was suddenly filled with gunfire and explosions.
“Da da da da da… boom boom boom boom… bang bang bang bang bang…”
"Hit them hard!" Kuiichi Rikuto returned to the position, pulled out his pistol, and shouted orders to the military police and Agent No. 76.
