After Wang Liang took the military map over, he laid it directly on the table in front of Zhang Tianhai and Zhang Chenggong.

Afterwards, Zhang Chenggong began to write and draw on the map with a pencil.

Zhang Tianhai did not block this scene. There was no reason why Zhang Chenggong, the county magistrate, could not understand these most basic maps. Since he could become the county magistrate, he must have a certain cultural foundation.

After a while, Zhang Chenggong completed filling in the drawing.

After filling out the form, Zhang Chenggong picked up the map and sat next to Zhang Tianhai.

"Captain Zhang, look here is Neihuang Ji. Opposite Neihuang Ji there is a village and a market town. The village is called Renhe Village, and the market town is Shuangta Ji." Zhang Chenggong pointed at the map with his finger. The Longhai Railway separates the two market towns and the village of Renhe.

"About ten miles along the Longhai Railway, there is a village called Yegang. Between Yegang and Neihuangzhao there is a place called Chaiyogou. This place is not marked on the map because it is a small town. A place so small that it’s not worth recording on the map!” Zhang Chenggong marked a point on the map with the three traditional Chinese characters for Chaiyegou written on it.

"Is there anything special about Chaiyogou?" Zhang Tianhai frowned and asked. This result was definitely not an ideal result for him.

Once the Battle of Lanfeng begins, Chaiye Valley will inevitably be occupied by the main force of the Japanese invaders. It is really difficult to penetrate.

"Chaiyegou, this place is where the Longhai Railway passes, and the terrain of this place is relatively complicated. At that time, the government spent a lot of thought on Chaiyegou in order to repair this railway. You have specifically sent people to explore it. That's it. Once this place explodes, repairing it won't take a day or two, it will take a week." Zhang Chenggong said confidently.

"Okay, I will send troops to explore this place later. What about the railway between Lanfeng, Qixian and Kaifeng? Is there any good place to start here?" Zhang Tianhai frowned and asked, he couldn't Don't make any preparations for Lan Feng's fall.

Whether he can save the defeat of the Battle of Lanfeng is still a matter of opinion. He must be fully prepared - taking one step at a time and looking at five, six or even eight steps are Zhang Tianhai's normal operations now.

Zhang Tianhai is a time traveler, and he has already made preparations for everything he can see, but it depends on people to make things happen, and the few variables that remain, it depends on God.

Anyway, as much as he can prepare, everything is already done.

After hearing this sentence, Zhang Chenggong hesitated a little. He didn't know whether he should say this sentence.

Seeing Zhang Chenggong's hesitation, could Zhang Tianhai not understand what was going on?

So, Zhang Tianhai smiled and said, "You don't have to worry, County Magistrate Zhang, we will never give up on Lan Feng. However, we have to anticipate everything that may happen. For example, if Lan Feng has It may be temporarily lost under the Japanese army's front. But in order to prepare for our army's counterattack later, it is impossible for us to let the Japanese armored train increase troops from this road to attack Kaifeng. Therefore, if Lanfeng is lost, , this section of railway must have a point that needs to be blown up directly.”

Zhang Tianhai's words were naturally half-truth and half-false. He also knew Zhang Chenggong's concerns: What if the national army really wants to abandon Lanfeng?

Whether the national army can recapture Lanfeng in the later counterattack is another matter. However, if the Japanese army directly marches westward after occupying Lanfeng, it is still quite dangerous. Therefore, if he cannot change history, This section of railway must be blown up by any means! Must not stay!

"Seriously, what Commander Zhang said? The national army really won't give up on our Lanfeng County, right?" Zhang Chenggong said hesitantly.

"Is it true that you have no food to eat? Besides, if the Japanese army really marches westward and even Kaifeng is lost, then Lanfeng will really not be recaptured." Zhang Tianhai smiled and said, There was no hint of deception in his face.

Zhang Chenggong thought about it and felt that what Zhang Tianhai said did make sense. The fighting was still lively in Xuzhou. Hundreds of thousands of national troops were still crowded there to fight against the Japanese army. What Commander Zhang said was true. There is no reason to lie to him.

So, Zhang Chenggong nodded, adjusted his glasses and said: "Actually, there is a more suitable detonation point about ten miles west of Lanfeng. We are on a plain here. If we don't find a suitable place for blasting, , it must be quite difficult. This place is called Sanyi Village. To the south of Sanyi Village, there is a place called Gegoupo. There is also a small bridge in this place. If blasting is done from here, it can also cause certain damage to the Japanese army. trouble."

After listening to this, Zhang Tianhai felt very satisfied. After all, Zhang Chenggong's words were indeed true. On such a large plain, it was not impossible to blow up a section of the railway, but the Japanese army could quickly repair it. If Zhang Tianhai's side was bombed. After the Japanese army came, it didn't take a day to repair it. So what's the use of bombing it?

For example, Chaiyegou is the place with the most military value. Think about it. After the Japanese army came, Chaiyegou would take a week to repair after the bombing. This precious time was enough for the national army to do a lot of things. Things are coming.

Listening to Zhang Chenggong's words, Zhang Tianhai probably had the general direction of the defense area planning of each battalion in his mind.

"By the way, what are the highlands in Lanfeng?" Zhang Tianhai asked.

"To be honest, the area around Lanfeng is a plain. How can there be any high ground?" Zhang Chenggong said with a wry smile.

After hearing Zhang Chenggong's words, Zhang Tianhai was certain that he had roughly grasped the general situation of Lanfeng County.

So, Zhang Tianhai said: "County Magistrate Zhang, I can't thank you enough for taking the trouble to come and provide us with so much information this time. Well, we still have a series of military meetings to be held here. If you have any questions, I’ll go to your government station to find you!”

Zhang Chenggong also knew that Zhang Tianhai was indeed very busy right now, so he readily gave Zhang Tianhai a fist in a martial arts style and said cheerfully: "Then, Commander Zhang, I will resign first. If anything happens, just send someone over."

"Okay, I'll bother County Magistrate Zhang, we'll talk later!" Zhang Tianhai also returned a fist salute, showing some sense of loyalty.

After Zhang Chenggong left, Zhang Tianhai went directly to the staff headquarters. He was going to issue a garrison order directly. The staff headquarters just had to cooperate with his order and prepare a more detailed document for issuance. Go to all battalions and all agencies directly under the regiment headquarters!

And this garrison plan is also very simple and clear——

The cavalry battalion directly stationed in Kaocheng and distributed radio stations. Once any situation occurred, it directly telegraphed the regiment headquarters for instructions;

The special agent company and engineering company directly under the regiment headquarters form a survey force, which is directly under Zhang Tianhai's personal command;

As for the main infantry battalion, the first battalion, together with the agencies directly under the regiment, is stationed in Lanfeng County, responsible for the defense of the county and Sanyi Village; the second battalion is stationed in Yifeng, responsible for the defense of Hongmiao, Yifeng, and Maogu Village; the third battalion is stationed in Lanfeng County. Neihuangji is responsible for the defense of Shuangtaji and Renhe Village; the fourth battalion is stationed in Yangguji and is responsible for the defense of Yangguji and Maji, and has the important task of supporting the direction of Shuangtaji at any time;

In addition, in this battle, each battalion has been assigned a combat radio to facilitate fighting at any time!

This defense zone plan covers almost the entire territory of Lanfeng, but the consequences are also serious, such as the shortage of troops.



PS: I finally caught up with the second update. It’s not easy. Good night, everyone!
