After saying that, Zhang Tianhai fixed his gaze on the main military commanders of the Second Guard Regiment and the Third Guard Regiment. After all, he was the largest commander of the First Guard Regiment, and his orders were everything.
I saw Zhou Fangjie and Li Yinglun getting acquainted, and they saluted Zhang Tianhai: "No objection, I promise to obey the commander's command!"
As soon as these two people expressed their opinions, all the officers on the field stood up and saluted Zhang Tianhai: "Promise to obey the command of the commander!"
Looking at the statements of all the officers on the field, Zhang Tianhai nodded slightly. He also knew that from this moment on, more than half of his plan had been completed. At the same time, this was also the true formation of the Ninth Theater Zone Guard Force!
At this time, the security forces of the Ninth War Zone are a whole. The fists of this unit are already clenched, waiting for a punch!
"Okay, that being the case, our preliminary organization is complete. As for the command system, which regiment is subordinate to which commander, which troops will be commanded. That's it for the time being! Let's dismiss the meeting! Drink!" Zhang Tianhai waved his hand ten points hearty.
…
This night was a rare occasion for drinking in the army, and it was Zhang Tianhai, the former enemy commander-in-chief, who took the lead in violating the rules.
Tonight's drink, in the words of Commander-in-Chief Zhang Tianhai, is "This is a drink to celebrate the formation of our theater guard force in the true sense. We are now supported by the 15th Group Army on the front line. You can drink it with confidence, and you have to believe in the commanding skills of Commander Guan Linzheng. After all, our senior senior’s commanding ability is not that great, and the 52nd Army is quite elite..."
It was precisely because of Zhang Tianhai's persuasion and joy that all the leaders of the theater security forces drank to their heart's content.
And late that night, intelligence came from the spy company that they had discovered the 23rd Regiment, the main force of the Japanese army, in Matang Town...
…
The next morning, after waking up, Zhang Tianhai began to describe the next battle plan with great interest, and in the plan he wrote this time, there were two words "Boatman" written in it.
Zhang Tianhai handed over the task of finding the boatman to Li Yinglun. At the end, he said: "You must believe in the power of the people. The power of the people must be endless."
Li Yinglun nodded and went to perform the task with a vague understanding.
…
Twenty-eight days later, this is the last preparatory meeting before the mobilization of the Ninth Theater District Guard Force. The next time will be the mobilization meeting.
The host of the meeting was still Zhang Tianhai, the former enemy commander-in-chief of the theater guard force, and those sitting in the audience were still the main military officers of the theater guard force.
"Everyone, the battle is about to begin. The day after tomorrow, we will launch a lightning general attack on the 45th Regiment of the Japanese Sixth Division hiding on the north bank, because behind our enemy, there are four entire regiments. The main force, including their cavalry regiment, if they want reinforcements, they must do it very quickly, so we must resolve the battle within one day, preferably before the Japanese army reacts. ." Zhang Tianhai said slowly, his voice was very loud.
"This time, our battle involves wading across the river. Therefore, we must cross the river quickly. It is best to complete the crossing in one night. At the same time, we must have some troops responsible for reinforcements. These troops will eventually We will face huge casualties. But fortunately, the area where the Japanese army is located is very small. We still have a certain chance of winning this battle. Especially with the help of flying thunder cannons, we will have many enemies when attacking the Japanese army's bunker groups and towers. Advantage. In order to ensure that the battle can be resolved quickly, it is planned to form ten thunder cannon detachments, each equipped with thirty thunder cannons. Each offensive detachment will first carry a thunder cannon detachment to ensure that the Japanese army can be Our army's saturation strike!" Zhang Tianhai was already full of confidence at this moment.
At this time, Zhou Fangjie stood up and said: "Report to the commander-in-chief, I believe that we do not need reinforcements. As long as our army can understand the situation around Juankou Town, we can launch a quick attack on them. As long as our troops target Accurately, it won’t take long for us to attack the surrounding area of Jiankou Town. This time can even be controlled within two hours, provided that we must be fully prepared!”
After listening to Zhou Fangjie's words, Zhang Tianhai nodded and said: "Okay, what the deputy commander-in-chief said is reasonable. Two days ago, I ordered the reconnaissance troops to find out the enemy's camp situation on the north bank and record it on the map. That's all. We can be well prepared.”
The reconnaissance force Zhang Tianhai mentioned was naturally the secret service company of the First Guard Regiment. They had been surviving on the north coast for more than a month. The secret service company was not in trouble, but rather felt somewhat at home among them.
Regarding all this, Su Jinzhi, as a witness, cannot be said to be admired, but completely conquered.
When this special agent company first landed on the north bank, it had plenty of food and grass, so it did not alert the officers and soldiers of the 45th Regiment of the Japanese Army. However, things were different once Liu Houming arrived near Xitang Town. He first sneaked into the Japanese Army In one of the warehouses, all the cans and other contents were taken out, leaving only a mess. They even got in with a knife without even firing a shot.
Before leaving, Liu Houming did not forget to disguise the outside of the warehouse as if nothing had happened, and placed many booby traps inside, in order to give the Japanese who came here to collect supplies a "big meal."
The next day, Liu Houming, who was not satisfied with the status quo, frantically ambushed a Japanese transport convoy in the suburbs. In addition to seizing some food, he also seized a batch of melon grenades and ammunition for various Japanese active weapons.
This is not particularly surprising. The key is that when Liu Houming was "committing crimes" crazily near Xitang Town, he also found out the details of the Japanese army. He even knew where the hospital for wounded soldiers was.
Of course, due to the limited space in Yueyang County, the Japanese army placed the hospital for wounded soldiers in Xitang Town. The Japanese army was confident that they had placed two teams here. Even if a small group of guerrillas infiltrated, they could still be guerrillas. The rescue call was completed before the large force was assembled.
That night, Liu Houming commanded his troops to launch a raid on the Wounded Soldiers Hospital outside Xitang Town. A fire ignited the Wounded Soldiers Hospital, resulting in nearly 400 casualties.
In this way, the special agent company's "doing whatever they want" in Xitang Town completely angered Inaba Shiro, because Inaba Shiro really couldn't bear that such an elite and powerful first-class division could be fooled by a small Chinese guerrilla group. Gotta go round and round.
So, just when the Japanese army dispatched two regiments to conduct a blanket search near Xitang Town, Liu Houming led his troops and swung to Matang Town...
Make false claims in the east and attack in the west, conceal the truth from the outside world, escape from the golden cicada's shell, and take advantage of the situation...
All kinds of military techniques were used to perfection by Liu Houming. This is why Su Jinzhi admires Liu Houming.
It's just that Liu Houming didn't know what Su Jinzhi was thinking, otherwise he would have said: "How can it be so difficult? Isn't that just 'the enemy advances and we retreat, the enemy garrisons and we harass, the enemy is tired and we attack, and the enemy retreats and we pursue'? Simple Single, how nice.”
