What Chief of Staff Liao said makes sense, so be it! After we completed the battle to regain Jiujiang, we immediately formulated an emergency plan. We cannot just watch our friendly forces being beaten. Huang Qisan said in a deep voice.
In fact, when it comes to relationships, the Guangdong Army has never had a very good relationship with the Central Army, and they are by no means familiar with Zhang Tianhai personally. As for why he works so hard, it is just because he feels that Zhang Tianhai is a responsible person. A revolutionary soldier who made a difference, nothing more.
Huang Qisan is not a fool. The person who can become a regiment leader during the war is definitely not a simple person.
"Yes! Captain!" Liao Penghui responded.
…
While Huang Qisan and Liao Penghui were making arrangements for possible changes in the future, Zhang Tianhai was not idle either.
The camera turns to Lijiazhuang.
Lijiazhuang is very busy at this time, because the combat headquarters here is about to move to the front line.
Lijiazhuang is busy, but Zhang Tianhai, who is at the center of the storm, is not panicked at all - he is very aware of the responsibilities on his shoulders and the consequences he will face if he fails.
Therefore, Zhang Tianhai cannot panic.
Now the large forces of the 1st Police Regiment have begun to assemble, and the number of combatable soldiers has exceeded 4,500. If we add the 48th Brigade that is fighting against the enemies of Jiujiang County, he, Zhang Tianhai, is now commanding A battle involving nearly ten thousand people!
If it were Zhang Tianhai from before, that would be unthinkable.
After all, with so many soldiers, that is an entire division!
"Regiment leader, our police regiment is doing well this time. Two entire brigades are fighting. If this battle goes well, the Japanese troops will be severely damaged!" Wang Liang, who was watching Zhang Tianhai smoking from the side, said.
"Wang Liang, you don't understand me... It seems to be great now, but if you make a wrong move, it will be huge. The combat effectiveness of our regiment ranks among the best in the entire Second Corps. But I don't know how many there are. His eyes are staring at us..." Zhang Tianhai took a puff of cigarette lightly, his expression infinitely lonely.
There are indeed many troops in a division, especially for Zhang Tianhai, who was a company commander a year ago.
Commanding a division of troops as a regiment commander was unthinkable, but the reality was so strange that it happened, and it happened to Zhang Tianhai in a very bloody way.
"Regiment leader, I understand your situation, but what I don't understand is that when you commanded our regiment to go deep behind enemy lines to sneak attack on the enemy's main force, we have never seen such hesitation." Wang Liang hesitated. He said it anyway, this was the truest thought in his heart.
I saw Zhang Tianhai let out a long sigh and said: "Hey, you don't understand. Previously on the front line, at least there were two generals Zhang Zizhong and Pang Bingxun supporting us from behind, and we also had the support of Chief Li Zongren at the theater level. Once we are in danger, we can We escaped unscathed, but things are different now. There seem to be more troops, but the pressure we face is definitely much greater."
Before Wang Liang could speak, Zhang Tianhai continued: "You didn't understand the meaning above, and I don't blame you. But you are my adjutant, Zhang Yulin, and there are some things you must understand."
"What do you mean by the leader, is this battle ordered by us from above?" Wang Liang's mind was finally not too stupid, and he immediately thought of the key point.
"You're not too stupid, and you finally figured it out. The superiors want us to fight this battle in Jiujiang, but we can't just retreat after capturing Jiujiang. This will not achieve the effect Commander-in-Chief Zhang wants at all. Not that our entire group has used it to achieve the desired results." Zhang Tianhai began to analyze and spoke eloquently.
"Tuan Zuo, can you explain it more clearly? You also know that I am not a very alert person." Wang Liang said very modestly. After all, if he can learn something from Tuan Zuo , these things can last him a lifetime.
"Come, come with me and take a look at the map." Zhang Tianhai stood up and walked to the map, with Wang Liang following closely behind.
For Zhang Tianhai, the adjutant Wang Liang is a young man with knowledge and culture. The key is that this young man obeys his orders and is very good at getting things done. This is a person worthy of training.
"Look at the general trend first. When the Japanese army captured Jiujiang, it took a lot of effort. So many troops rushed forward. Not only did they cover the landing under the heavy artillery of our army, but they also destroyed the 128th Army of the 70th Army. The division was defeated. Now the 106th Division, the main force of the Japanese army that captured Jiujiang, has disappeared. Can you understand?" Zhang Tianhai looked at Wang Liang and asked.
Wang Liang's brows furrowed, and then he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and then said: "I understand. Leader, does Commander Zhang want us to have a fight near Jiujiang, so as to scare the enemy away and force the Japanese army to attack the enemy?" The 106th Division shows up?"
Zhang Tianhai shook his head and said: "You are only half right. The Japanese 106th Division is most likely heading towards De'an, Nanchang, but the people above are not sure yet, so we have to mark it here." One battle, forcing the little devils to reveal their combat intentions. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Wang Liang responded. In a flash, he asked again: "So, do we need to fight with the reinforcements from Little Japan now?"
"Not only do we need to fight, but the bigger the better. We must muddy the waters, and it is best to severely damage the Japanese reinforcements." Zhang Tianhai said in a deep voice.
"I understand, I understand. No wonder the regiment has set up the battlefield near Gutang Town. This is because they want to fight a second Jiujiang defense battle!" Wang Liang was also shocked by Zhang Tianhai's leaping thinking - there has never been a national war. No regiment in the army has such courage to use a regiment, oh no, a brigade to attack Japanese reinforcements from unknown sources! And it’s a serious injury!
"You can say that, but our goal is not to defend Jiujiang County, but to compete with these Japanese reinforcements to see if the existing combat strength of our first police regiment can annihilate their vanguard troops!" Zhang Tianhai He said in a deep voice, his tone was very domineering.
"But, can the four to five thousand people of our police group alone be able to stop the Japanese army?" Believe it or not, Wang Liang was not reassured after all. After all, the Japanese army's combat power was definitely not weak.
"Who said we only have four or five thousand people? Don't we still have the 48th Brigade? The two brigades combined can always kill some of their forward troops, right?" Zhang Tianhai chuckled softly, but his smile was extremely bright. of confidence.
"Aren't the 48th Brigade attacking Jiujiang?" Wang Liang's mind twitched, and he didn't know why he said such a sentence.
"It's not a problem to attack Jiujiang, and it's definitely not a problem for the 48th Brigade. How long can the little Japan in Jiujiang County survive? Let's see! It won't take long for Jiujiang County to be recovered. By then, we can It’s just our division that will fight against the enemy’s troops.” Zhang Tianhai said with arrogance.
Listening to Zhang Tianhai's words, Wang Liang finally understood where Tuanzuo's confidence came from - war has always been an art!
