Yang Yuanshan led his people to march all the way, and it took nearly two days to arrive at Huaishugou.
The soldiers of He Yunfu's second brigade had arrived half a day earlier and were working hard to dig trenches on the northern hillside.
"Batalion Commander, are you here?"
He Yunfu received the notice from the sentry and quickly came to greet him.
"Well, how's it going?
Is Zhao Li’s new engineer shovel easy to use? "
"There are no unexpected incidents so far. The soil on the hillside here is relatively soft, and the engineer shovel is very useful.
It is estimated that in five hours at most, our trenches will be almost dug. "
"Okay. The requirements for anti-blast holes are the same as before. It is best to use wood to support them to prevent collapse.
The little Japanese reinforcements are expected to have at least two Type 92 infantry cannons, and possibly even mountain cannons. "
"Well, don't worry, battalion commander, I understand."
After fighting the Qingniu Mountain ambush battle and experiencing the bombardment of 150mm heavy artillery and bomber aerial bombs, He Yunfu felt that the little Japanese's mountain artillery and infantry artillery were simply child's play, and they were not even qualified to make him frown.
But since Yang Yuanshan solemnly explained the matter, he still agreed cooperatively.
“Battal Commander, are you going to leave the southern slope alone?
How about we simply cut down those locust trees, clear the firing range, and then also ambush a company over there to form a crossfire with this side? "
He Yunfu asked, pointing to the lush locust trees on the opposite hillside.
Yang Yuanshan rolled his eyes at him and retorted:
"If you cut down the tree, will the little devil still know that there is an ambush here?"
"But what if the little Jaap escapes from the hillside over there? Our machine guns may not be able to stop him."
He Yunfu frowned.
"Don't worry, didn't I ask Zhao Li to prepare sulfur, kerosene, etc. for me?
If the little devils dare to escape from the woods by then, they will have great fun. With our fire, we can make them regret why they were not killed by your guns. "
Yang Yuanshan chuckled.
He Yunfu nodded, and quickly arranged for the soldiers to take these things to the opposite hillside and hide them in the woods.
…
After checking the situation at the Huaishugou position, Yang Yuanshan left half of the health team members with them, and then took the rest to Baishiling.
When they arrived at Baishi Ridge, Han Yang was also making preparations with his people.
Yang Yuanshan gave them the two machine guns, inspected the trenches and anti-gun holes they had dug, and then found a sheltered col halfway up a nearby peak and established his own temporary headquarters.
Seeing this, Han Yang couldn't help but smile bitterly, stepped forward and asked:
"Battal Commander, why don't you go to Huaishugou to set up a headquarters?"
After hearing what he said, could Yang Yuanshan understand that this kid didn't want to tell him what to do?
Couldn't help but curse:
"Hey Han Yang, are you drifting off?"
"Hey, battalion commander, didn't you always say that we should learn to use our own brains to fight wars? You always direct the battle yourself, how can we use our brains?"
"Okay, okay, then I'll just watch this time and don't say anything, okay?"
Yang Yuanshan thought that there was nothing wrong with his words.
If I always point fingers, then these generals under my command will never be able to surpass Li Yunlong and Ding Wei.
Then I will never live a good life as a brigade commander!
In this case, it would be better to watch the show first this time.
Look at Han Yang's commanding ability!
Han Yang didn't expect Yang Yuanshan to be so easy to talk to. He was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly patted his chest and promised:
"Battal Commander, just watch it! I promise I won't let you down!"
…
Han Yang continued to command the soldiers to prepare, and Yang Yuanshan arranged for a correspondent to ride a bicycle to Shouxian County to report the situation to Kong Jie.
…
In Zhangjiazhuang Village, ten miles outside the east gate of Shouxian County, the entire Kong Jiexin Second Regiment has gathered here.
Kong Jie established a temporary headquarters in the village and is making combat deployments with the cadres of the regiment.
“The first battalion first captured the gun tower and two bunkers outside the east gate, and the second battalion feinted from the south gate to disperse the Japs’ forces.
Therefore, when you attack, you must make a big fanfare, reveal our numbers and numbers, and let the little devils misjudge.
Our initial goal is just to ask the little devils to call for help, and the people from the secret service camp will help us call for help.
After the secret service battalion notified us that the Japanese reinforcements were dispatched, we launched an all-out attack, broke down the city gates, and rushed into the city to clear away the remnants. "
"yes!"
Kong Jie's three battalion commanders quickly agreed in unison.
But everyone's face was tense.
They have never attacked the county town before. Can they really win it successfully this time?
Everyone has no confidence in their hearts.
How did a strong army come about?
It was fought in bloody battles.
Now the New Second Regiment is obviously far from being a strong army, at least none of them, the battalion commanders, are confident of victory.
Kong Jie saw their performance and immediately understood their mental state, and couldn't help but feel a little angry.
He quickly encouraged them:
"Didn't you fucking eat? Are you so weak?
Isn’t our intelligence very clear?
In Shouxian County, there are only one squadron of young Japanese and two companies of second Japanese left. The troops are so empty. What are you afraid of?
Now we have 7 artillery pieces and plenty of artillery shells. We will first use artillery to knock down the Japs’ turrets, bunkers and firepower points. Then when the time comes, we will use artillery fire to cover the death squads and use explosive packs to blow open the city gates. Then we will be able to Rushed into the city.
If there are more people than there are fewer people, you will definitely win! "
After hearing what he said, the battalion commander quickly cheered:
"Yes! The new second group will win!"
With him taking the lead, the other two battalion commanders also quickly cooperated:
"Must win!"
Seeing these guys like this, Kong Jie couldn't help but envy the battalion commanders Zhang Dabiao, Yang Yuanshan, Shen Quan, and Wang Huaibao of the Independent Regiment.
Comparing people with others will lead to death, and comparing goods with goods will lead to throwing away!
At this time, political commissar Dou Guangjie asked:
"Lao Kong, there has been no news from Battalion Commander Yang. They won't make any mistakes, right?"
"Definitely not, that boy Yang Yuanshan's strength is quite extraordinary.
The agreed time to launch the attack is 8 o'clock tomorrow night. Let's just prepare for the attack first. "
Kong Jie knew that Yang Yuanshan had more than 3,800 people and dozens of cannons!
This strength simply made him drool.
Just as he was talking, the sentry outside came to report:
"Captain, the correspondent from the independent regiment's special agent battalion is here."
Upon hearing this, Kong Jie immediately said to Dou Guangjie:
"Old Dou, look, they must be ready and waiting for us to start."
As he said that, he led Dou Guangjie and others out of the regiment headquarters and walked outside.
After a while, they saw a soldier holding a bicycle waiting outside.
The soldier knew Kong Jie, who had been the deputy commander of the independent regiment, and quickly stepped forward to salute and report:
"Report to Commander Kong, our battalion commander has arranged for me to inform you that our secret service battalion is fully prepared."
Kong Jie nodded and then asked curiously:
"Okay! Comrade, what are you riding?"
As soon as he said this, Dou Guangjie beside him quickly introduced him in a low voice:
"Lao Kong, this is a bicycle. I heard that General Feng Huanzhang once had a bicycle special agent company in his team. They moved as fast as the wind and were very maneuverable."
At this time, the soldier also replied:
"Report to Commander Kong that these are bicycles. Our battalion picked up 110 bicycles in Qixia Town before."
"What?
Picked it up?
Can you pick up this good thing? "
Dou Guangjie's eyes widened with disbelief on his face, feeling that his intelligence had been insulted.
…
Kong Jie sent the correspondent away and asked him to report back to Yang Yuanshan. Everything went as planned, and then he and Dou Guangjie returned to the house.
Dou Guangjie sighed in disbelief:
"Why is this secret service camp so lucky to be able to pick up 110 bicycles?
If our New Second Regiment can also set up a bicycle reconnaissance company, it will definitely play a big role. "
Kong Jie heard this and sneered:
"Hmph, Old Dou, what is this bicycle?
That kid Yang Yuanshan also picked up a dozen anti-aircraft guns!
I'm just so jealous.
If it weren't for the fact that each anti-aircraft gun weighed more than 7,000 kilograms, I would definitely be able to get two of them back! "
"What? There is such an outrageous thing?
Can an anti-aircraft gun weighing more than 7,000 kilograms be picked up casually? this……"
Dou Guangjie was numb and felt a little doubtful about life.
