Chapter 157: The Battle of Langfang, Part 1(2/2)

On May 4, the Japanese army launched a full-scale attack on the 18th Division station in Langfang. The 18th Division, under the command of the division commander Cai Tingguang, temporarily lacked air support, and broke out with the attacking Japanese 16th Division.

Fierce fighting.

On the evening of May 6, Chen Jun and Dai Anlan arrived in Peiping on a special plane with the chief of staff of the Third Division Gao Feng (a graduate of the Chinese Military Academy, who served as deputy commander of the second regiment of the second brigade of the Aboriginal Regiment and deputy commander of the eighth garrison division).

Nanyuan Airport was greeted by Chen Cheng.

"Welcome to you. Commander Chen, Chief of Staff Gao, and Commander Dai are all famous names that Ci Xiu has admired for a long time. Your army is able to lead troops north to help. Gao Yi is comparable to the ancients."

At Nanyuan Airport, senior officers of the 18th Route Army headed by Chen Cheng arrived to greet Dai Anlan, commander of the 3rd Regiment of the 19th Route Army. Chen Cheng did not seem to be aware of the political differences between the two sides at all. Instead, he and Dai Anlan

The group leader who was a few levels below him became enthusiastic.

"Commander Chen, you are so polite. I am just a pawn in the army. How can I trouble Commander Chen? Now that the situation of the war of resistance is urgent, we should go to the war meeting first." In view of the tight war situation, Chen Cheng also came to the airport to greet him and Chen Jun.

Instead of feeling honored, he felt a little uncomfortable. He also knew that this was not Chen Cheng's fault, because this kind of thing was the style of the Kuomintang army.

"Okay, of course, of course. Your army will arrive in two days, so it's better to settle some things first."

That night, a joint operational meeting between the 18th Route Army and the 19th Route Army was held in Peiping. It was as if the sound of Langfang artillery was close at hand, and the occasional Japanese air raids made Chen Jun, Gao Feng, Dai Anlan and others

I felt the atmosphere before the war.

There has been a huge panic in the entire Peiping. Even with the soldiers of the Security Command maintaining order, there is still a possibility of falling into even greater panic.

The Japanese air raids also gradually crossed Langfang and attacked the ancient city of Peiping.

Chen Cheng walked to the huge battle map and introduced the newly arrived Chen Jun and Dai Anlan with a solemn look: "The current situation is very serious. Facing the Japanese army's standing 16th Division and 19th Division,

Although the battle was hard, the appearance of defeat has been revealed. The number of the Japanese 14th Division has also appeared on the firing line. It is expected that they will join this second division to participate in the Langfang battle soon.

.

The movement of their third division is unknown. According to predictions, it is very likely that the 19th Division will be surrounded and annihilated. Therefore, even if your 19th Route Army cannot catch up, we will support Langfang tomorrow."

"Three Japanese divisions, the 19th Division is in big trouble."

Chen Jun frowned tightly. If by any chance the 19th Division was eaten by the Japanese army first, Peiping would probably be eaten by the Japanese army.

Regarding the Kuomintang's 19th Division, he was still clear about it. It was not objective to say that they could not fight and that they were afraid of the enemy before the war. The most objective problem should be that the Japanese division's offensive momentum was too fierce.

"One day, only one day, my third regiment will be able to join the battle the morning after tomorrow." Dai Anlan suddenly stood up and said angrily: "The Japanese army is too rampant, this time we must give them a hard blow."
