"Have the 1st, 2nd, and 5th Regiments advance in secret and await orders at Beidingyuan. Have Sun Desheng come find me."

Lin Tianchen looked extremely serious, and the messenger beside him quickly went to the tank armored regiment's standby point.

This battle will determine the direction of the situation in the three northeastern provinces, and they don't have much time left.

According to the information provided by Feng Jianhai, combined with the marching speed of the Japanese, it is estimated that they are only a hundred kilometers away from Chuncheng and have not yet entered the field of view of the visual map. However, at the marching speed of the mechanized troops, it will take at most one day.

Beidingyuan, more than 40 kilometers northeast of Chuncheng, has been a place where battles of all sizes have rarely occurred around Chuncheng and Bingcheng since ancient times.

When the Japanese invaders entered the northern border, they captured Chuncheng, Bingcheng, Jiangcheng and other places from Beidingyuan overnight. The entire plain stretched for hundreds of miles, with no mountains or rivers in it, and it could be said to be flat.

The Beidingyuan Plain is equivalent to the gateway between Spring City and Ice City. After the support from Ice City arrived here, the mechanized troops they faced were like entering an empty land.

It is also fertile black soil.

Lin Tianchen chose Beidingyuan for a long time and finally chose this place.

It is unwise to fight the Japanese on the plains because you will be exposed to the public and become a sitting duck.

But if you can hold on, and vice versa, you can ambush in the most unlikely place and make it look like you're planning something without any intention.

This time, Lin Tianchen needs absolute control over both the tank armored regiment and the heavy artillery regiment. Otherwise, if the Japanese tank troops are not stopped, the entire Northern Expedition team will inevitably suffer heavy losses.

Lin Tianchen followed the large group and advanced quickly while the weather was still dark. Not long after, Sun Desheng's figure appeared in the distance, running all the way and quickly heading towards Lin Tianchen.

Lin Tianchen looked at Sun Desheng who was walking quickly towards him, his mind a little distracted.

He now knew Sun Desheng very well. He was a stubborn man who dared to rush forward with a knife even when facing enemies that outnumbered him by dozens of times.

Sun Desheng never lacked the courage to persevere through fatigue. As the saying goes, a general forges the soul of his soldiers, and the entire tank regiment more or less reflects Sun Desheng. The fact that he could win this battle was actually one of the sources of his inner confidence.

"Commander." The moment Sun Desheng saw Lin Tianchen, his eyes were full of respect.

"This time the Japs are not making a small effort. You may have to face about two hundred tanks. This time the heavy artillery will carry out covering strikes around your front. We have only one goal, to help me delay the mechanized troops on Beiding Plain and buy me time to cripple the Japs' large forces..." Lin Tianchen's tone was full of seriousness. Everyone knew that on this plain, tanks could play the greatest role.

He chose to ambush in a place that was advantageous for a large-scale armored group, taking advantage of this mentality.

The Japanese would never think that they would choose to ambush here, because the large cluster armor advantage is too great. Choosing to ambush here is simply placing a large force on the route where the Japanese are most likely to charge.

If it weren't for Zhuzi's heavy artillery, the popularity of anti-tank weapons, and the establishment of the tank regiment led by Sun Desheng, Lin Tianchen would never have chosen Beidingyuan.

This is truly a choice with no way out. The determination to break into the enemy's formation is to die. However, if the strategy can be achieved, it will truly break a leg and an arm of the Japanese Kwantung Army.

The Japanese will definitely launch an attack around the more than 200 tanks, and his goal is to destroy the Japanese army's large force without any cover on the plain, which is undoubtedly the easiest way to destroy the Japanese army's manpower.

In this battle, risks and benefits coexist.

"Commander, don't worry, we can definitely hold them off." Sun Desheng nodded vigorously, his voice unusually calm.

Being a cavalryman, he knew the plains very well. The boundless plains were the private preserve for the cavalrymen to gallop on horseback.

The wind blows on his body, and running wildly is a dream engraved in his bones.

However, the 221 tanks of the Japanese army put a lot of pressure on him. But in war, sometimes you can avoid the enemy's attack, and sometimes you must raise the sword hanging at your waist and chop the enemy.

"Just have confidence and bring as many soldiers as possible alive!"

Lin Tianchen finally turned thousands of words into one sentence, because in this battle, Sun Desheng was facing enemies that were ten times his number.

But isn't it the same for other troops?

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!!"

Sun Desheng's tone was unusually decisive, and his eyes revealed a strong murderous intent.

When two brave men meet on a narrow road, the braver one wins. On the plains, what matters is courage and control.

They are all made of iron and flesh, and are on the verge of life and death. They are no worse than the Japanese, and may even be stronger than them.

Live without fear, die without fear.

Wherever the blade points, the charge will never stop.

They are cavalry, the iron cavalry since ancient times, with pride in their bones.

"Okay, let's go back to the army." Lin Tianchen said nothing more.

"Yes!!"

Sun Desheng shook hands, saluted, and quickly turned and left.

I was covered in dust along the way.

After just a few steps, Sun Desheng paused slightly and suddenly saw a familiar figure. He pondered for a moment and quickly walked over.

"Captain..." Sun Desheng looked at the old commander who was obviously waiting for him and greeted him naturally.

"Come back alive to see me." Li Yunlong opened his arms, his eyes deep as he looked at Sun Desheng's expression. He swallowed back many words that came to his lips.

How could Li Yunlong not know about the transfer of elite regiments such as the 1st and 2nd Regiments? It was obvious that the Tank Regiment had taken on a big task.

"Of course, take care of yourselves too." Sun Desheng spoke solemnly after the hug.

Then he turned around and left without hesitation, running quickly towards the tank regiment's base.

Staring at the back, Li Yunlong's expression was very serious.

The 1st, 2nd, and 5th Regiments, as well as the heavy artillery and tank armored regiments, were all mobilized to the northeast at this time, at a moment when these troops were not participating in the Spring City Offensive.

Both the 37th Division and the people in the base were very clear about the enemies these troops were facing.

It was a large elite force of the Kwantung Army coming down from the north.

There were bursts of roaring sounds and black smoke rising.

The wind is still strong, but the north wind is getting less and the south wind is getting more.

Under the gloomy sky, there is no snow falling, only the melting snow reminds everyone.

Winter passes and spring comes.

"Stop looking and go back to the position." Li Yunlong said loudly to Zhang Dabiao and others beside him, and took the first step to head towards the south of the city.

Dark clouds covered the city, and the wind roared like drums.
