"Both brothers, now the enemy has reached the forward position of Tangtou. What do you think?" Pang Bingxun put his hands on the table and looked at Zhang Liyuan on the left and Zhang Tianhai on the right.
"My suggestion is to follow Brother Pang's command and stand firm." Inspector Zhang Liyuan said.
Like most middle-aged officers during the Republic of China, Zhang Liyuan also wore a slicked back hair and looked domineering.
Yes, it's a bit similar to the type of Jiang Tianyang played by Wan Ziliang in "Young and Dangerous".
In contrast, Zhang Tianhai's crew cut looks very capable.
Zhang Tianhai thought for a while, took a deep breath, and said: "I think we can attack appropriately. Use a small group of elite troops to launch a fierce attack on the Japanese army's flanks in order to kill the enemy and force the enemy to divide their forces. To achieve the purpose of mitigating the frontal battlefield."
"However, the strength of the enemy forces in front of us is not clear yet. They should be at least one regiment or more. Will a hasty attack have the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort?" Zhang Liyuan questioned.
At this time, Zhang Tianhai smiled and said: "You have to give it a try to find out. What if the main forward force of the Japanese army is mobilized?"
Pang Bingxun thought for a moment, looked at Zhang Tianhai and said, "I think Brother Yulin's words are reasonable. We can try this combat idea. Can Brother Yulin propose a specific combat plan?"
Zhang Tianhai looked at the map carefully and said: "Brother Pang and Commissioner Zhang, please look at the location of Tangtou. Tangtou Town is backed by the Yi River. It is less than one kilometer away from the Yi River. It is not said that the location is not dangerous. , our army’s forward troops are now located in Tangshan Au, five kilometers away from Tangtou Town. If Pang’s troops in Tangshan Au can withstand the Japanese onslaught for two days, I have a very bold proposal.”
"Commander Zhang, let me just say that those who are studying operations here are all military officers on the frontline battlefield. Only when you speak out can you know whether it can be done." Zhang Liyuan waved his hand and spoke very directly.
Pang Bingxun also nodded and said, "Brother Li Yuan is right, just say what you have to say."
Zhang Tianhai drew a large circle near Tangshan Au and said: "This is now the main battlefield where our army fights with the enemy. I think we can send an elite force while Tangshan Au is still in our army's hands. Send an elite force to cross the Yi River now and lay an ambush in the Tangshan Col area. When necessary, we can move out of Tangshan and attack the enemy's flank!"
After Pang Bingxun heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly. It was obvious that this plan was very tempting to him. If this force was used properly, winning the battle would not be a problem.
It just depends on whether this battle is a small victory or a big victory.
"It's just this army. Which army is suitable to be in charge?" Pang Bingxun looked at the four people in front of him and said.
These four people are Zhang Tianhai, leader of the first regiment directly under the third theater, Zhang Liyuan, leader of the Linyi Security Regiment, Li Zhenqing, leader of the 40th Army Supplementary Regiment, and Liu Fusheng, leader of the 231st Regiment of the 116th Brigade.
"Military, I believe that among the regiment commanders here, the only one whose troops can be considered elite is Zhang Tianhai and Commander Zhang's regiment." The speaker was Liu Fusheng, the commander of the 231st Regiment.
Liu Fusheng seems to be the kind of honest and honest person. There is a saying that love comes from the heart. Perhaps it is for this reason that he is straightforward and cheerful.
All the regiment leaders present here know that no matter which regiment they are, if the troops are dragged out to fight with real swords and guns, no regiment alone can be the opponent of Zhang Tianhai's regiment.
Just kidding, with the configuration of the First Regiment, even a brigade with an adjustment division like the 39th Division may not be able to defeat the First Regiment, let alone other units.
Seeing everyone's eyes looking at him, Zhang Tianhai also knew that this time it would be most appropriate to go straight to the group.
"Yes, but everyone, our regiment is lurking behind enemy lines this time. It must be dangerous. If we are not careful, our regiment will be surrounded by the main force of the Japanese army in Tangshan, and the entire army will be annihilated. Therefore, our regiment will never fight unless it is critical. Can you all agree?" Zhang Tianhai looked at the people in front of him.
"This is understandable, but I would like to boldly ask Commander Zhang. When will it be a critical moment?" Li Zhenqing, leader of the 40th Army Field Supplementary Regiment, asked.
"When the fighter planes appear," Zhang Tianhai said.
"Then I would like to ask Commander Zhang on behalf of our friendly army commanders, when will the fighter planes appear?" Li Zhenqing was somewhat reluctant to give up. After all, they fought against the Central Army's troops during the Central Plains War. It was too fierce, so they didn't trust the Central Army.
"Commander Li's words are a bit contemptuous, right? Zhang came here from Xuzhou with his troops for the sake of the anti-Japanese war. Otherwise, Commander Li will lead your field supplementary regiment to Tangshan to station in a hidden place?" Zhang Tianhai said in a somewhat unkind tone. After all, he was not a kind person who could be manipulated.
Seeing Zhang Tianhai's words, Li Zhenqing couldn't say too much. After all, they all gathered together for the overall goal of resisting Japan, not to make enemies.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit stiff, Pang Bingxun quickly said: "Then let Brother Zhang's troops cross the Yi River and station in Tangshan!"
"Yes! Sir!" Zhang Tianhai stood at attention and saluted, accepting the mission.
"Brother Zhang, if you need my help now, just ask. As long as I can satisfy you, I will never refuse." Pang Bingxun is not a stingy person to begin with, so this time Zhang Tianhai gave him face like this, which is already very good. , so he also has to be generous.
Zhang Tianhai thought for a while and said: "Yes, my regiment needs food for two weeks, preferably dry food. Given the ferocity of the Japanese attack, I am afraid that the 232nd Regiment stationed in Tangtou will not be able to hold on. It’s been too long. This time we go into the mountains, we need to be fully prepared, especially food.”
Pang Bingxun said without hesitation: "No problem. I will do my best to satisfy this request. In addition, I will order Peng Shouyu, the leader of the 232nd Regiment, to try his best to hold Tangshan Col for two days to buy time for Brother Yulin's Zhiyi Regiment to station in Tangshan!"
Zhang Tianhai nodded and said: "Thank you, brother. In addition, I also need two or three locals from Tangtou Town to lead our group into the mountain. After entering the mountain, our group will not send you telegrams about the location. . So as not to expose his whereabouts and lead to catastrophe."
"Okay." Pang Bingxun agreed very simply, and then turned to the other three people and said: "This operation of the Zhiyi Regiment is a top-secret operation. If the information leaks out from us, don't blame me, Pang Bingxun, for not recognizing the bullet. People only kill their own people."
"Yes!" Li Zhenqing, Liu Fusheng, and Zhang Liyuan stood at attention and saluted at the same time, but their hearts were awe-inspiring. The legion commander's words were definitely not a joke.
Seeing this scene in front of him, Zhang Tianhai finally let go of his anxious heart: He is not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but he is afraid of teammates who are like pigs. He didn't want to imitate Zhang Lingfu who later became the leader of Meng Lianggu...
