After saying the request, Cao Min looked at Zhang Ping'an expectantly and nervously!
no way!
After all, Zhang Ping'an is the combat staff officer of the 386th Brigade. He is only stationed in their county brigade and will naturally go back when the mission is over.
Under normal circumstances, their county brigade rarely obtains cadres from the main force. People go to higher places and water flows to lower places.
The only thing the county brigade can offer is administrative treatment. After all, it is a battalion-level unit, but apart from these, there is nothing else. As for weapons and equipment? The main force can get logistical support, but their county brigade is responsible for its own profits and losses.
There is no need to turn over the captured items, but their superiors will not provide them with support in terms of ammunition and weapons and equipment.
In addition to weapons and equipment, there are soldiers. Most of the young and middle-aged people and good soldiers are willing to join the main force. The county brigade is composed of the old, weak, sick and disabled.
At the same time, in this temporary headquarters, not only the instructor Cao Min looked expectant and nervous, but so did everyone else!
When Zhang Pingan nodded in agreement, no one reacted, but soon, everyone looked at Zhang Pingan in disbelief.
"Consultant Zhang, are you sure?"
No, the instructor Cao Min, who was also in disbelief, couldn't help but ask. Because he was so excited that his wounds were touched at once, he couldn't help but grinned but did not cry out, but stared at Zhang Ping'an.
"Um!"
Zhang Ping'an looked at Cao Min's disbelieving expression. He was a little sad, so he nodded solemnly and repeated again: "Instructor Cao, you can rest assured to leave it to me in the county brigade. With me, there will be no problem." !”
After hearing Zhang Pingan's solemn answer, Cao Min finally believed it.
His lips trembled. He wanted to say a lot, but his weak body made him choose to keep the story short, and said: "Counselor Zhang, no, Captain Zhang, the county brigade is leaving it to you!"
Accepting instructor Cao Min's instructions, Zhang Pingan took office and became the new temporary county captain of Quanyang County. Instructor Cao Min was also carried and pulled down by two soldiers.
Baijiawa, in the temporary headquarters of the Quanyang County Brigade.
Zhang Pingan was surrounded by three people. They were the three district team captains.
Similarly, they were also newly promoted squad leaders. Previously, a large number of cadres had died because of the brutal battle conditions.
"Comrades!"
As the newly appointed temporary captain, Zhang Pingan quickly stepped into the role. His rich company-level command experience allowed him to have a general understanding of the current situation after asking a few questions and scanning the battlefield.
Speak the truth!
The current war situation is very corrupt, and they are already on the verge of collapse, especially the morale problem. If they don't solve it quickly, they may collapse without the little devil taking action.
Therefore, the first problem before Zhang Pingan was not to complete the tasks assigned by his superiors, but to win a small victory to re-energize everyone's morale.
After thinking clearly about what he should do, Zhang Pingan glanced at the three district team captains and said: "The situation is not optimistic. Our county team has been fighting in Baijiawa for three hours."
"According to the orders of our superiors, we have to hold on for at least six hours to buy time for the fellow villagers in the rear to move, which means we have to hold on for another three hours."
"But after three hours of fierce fighting, our county brigade suffered heavy casualties. From the 451 people before the battle started, the number has dropped sharply to less than 220 people now, which is half the battle. In addition to casualties, , and there is another problem, that is, our few weapons and equipment are now damaged a lot. Now half of the soldiers have no weapons. They can only have two grenades per person, and there are less than three bullets per person. The light machine gun only It’s straightened out.”
"The most important thing is that the Japs on the opposite side suffered less than a hundred casualties, and their combat effectiveness has not been lost much. If this continues, even if we are all exhausted, we may not be able to complete the tasks assigned to us by our superiors!"
Having said this, Zhang Pingan paused slightly, looked past the three of them, and said slightly worriedly: "Because the troops were expanded too quickly, there were heavy casualties this time. The morale and fighting will of many of our soldiers have begun to waver. We want If we continue to fight, we must address the morale problem."
There is a saying that a layman can see the excitement, but an expert can see the door. Although I don’t know what the level of Staff Zhang is, I can find the core reason for the problems faced by the county team at a glance. The three district team leaders know that Zhang Pingan is definitely a capable person. A person with high level of ability.
So their original distrust disappeared and was replaced by unconditional support.
After Zhang Ping'an finished speaking, the three district team captains looked at each other and expressed their opinions: "Captain, just give the order, we all listen to you!"
"hehe!"
Hearing the statements of the three district team captains, Zhang Ping'an showed a look of satisfaction. This was what he was waiting for.
The situation is urgent now. If Zhang Pingan is not united, no matter how powerful Zhang Pingan is, it will not help.
No nonsense!
Zhang Ping'an directly pulled the three district team captains and began to introduce his ideas. He pointed at the current position and said: "This position we are in is a small commanding height in Baijiawa. Once this position is lost, Then it’s completely lost.”
"But with a small number of us, we may not be able to hold on in the face of the strong firepower of the Japs. My idea is to leave one squad of soldiers to continue resisting on the position, and the other twenty or thirty soldiers to retreat behind." Location to hide.”
"On the one hand, we can avoid the artillery fire when the Japs attack for a while. On the other hand, we can retreat in order to advance and bury the explosive packs and mines in our hands on our own positions."
"Once the little devils rush into the position and show their heads, we will pull the fuse to detonate the explosive package, and then launch a countercharge. We will seize the opportunity when the little devils have just rushed up and are unsteady on their feet, and are still stunned by our explosion, and kill them with a single shot. .”
"At that time, we will not only be able to regain the position, but also seize a batch of weapons and ammunition left by the little devils. The morale problem will also be solved with this small victory and the captured weapons and equipment." Speaking of this, Zhang Ping'an's face A confident smile appeared on his face.
Maybe, taking office temporarily this time, he will encounter a narrow escape from death, but Zhang Ping'an does not accept his fate, nor does he believe in it! The most important thing is that he doesn't believe in this evil!
Can a living person be choked to death by peeing? Aren’t they just little devils! Everyone carries one head on two shoulders. As long as the tactics and strategies are in place, they will die for me!
The three district team captains on the side listened to Zhang Ping'an's combat arrangements.
There was a hint of surprise and excitement in the eyes of the three of them!
Although they have just served as district team captains, they are not stupid. It sounds like Zhang Ping'an's plan is risky, but there are also risks in not making any changes.
In this case, it is better to implement Zhang Pingan's battle plan. If it goes well, not only will morale be restored, but weapons and ammunition can be replenished, then there will be absolutely no problem in persisting like this for another three hours.
Therefore, the three of them did not hesitate. Out of their trust in Zhang Pingan, the three of them shouted directly: "Captain, we will resolutely execute the order!"*3!
