Chapter 49: The First Trouble

The encirclement and suppression troops in the provincial capital were coming from the northeast of Pingyang, and Xu Guoren and the security regiment were moving to the northwest, so if nothing else, the two sides would basically not meet, and Xu Guoren's troops could easily get rid of the two Jin Sui armies.

However, as soon as the troops had walked about forty or fifty miles of mountain roads, the reconnaissance company that had been assigned to the front came back with bad news: ten miles ahead, a large number of the Northwest Army had arrived, and the uniforms of the Jin Sui Army and the Northwest Army were of different colors, so it was easy to distinguish them.

Xu Guoren was rewarded and immediately ordered the troops to stop advancing.

Walking in front was Guo Hu's second battalion, Xu Guoren's first battalion and the guard company walked in the middle, and behind was Guo Danian's third battalion, which was mainly responsible for the queen of the palace and escorting the grain and gold and silver treasures transferred this time.

After receiving the order, the two military commanders all trotted all the way towards Xu Guoren's Chinese army.

"Commander, what's wrong?" Guo Hu was the first to ask.

Xu Guoren took a copy of the entire provincial capital from Niu Dagen's hand, and spread it out on a rock next to him, and said to the two: "Our whereabouts have been exposed, and there is the Northwest Army in front to intercept us. ”

"What? Why is it exposed? Guo Hu was taken aback.

"Could it be that there is a mole among us?" Guo Danian was also very surprised and guessed.

Xu Guoren glared at him and said, "Don't guess, where are there any traitors, probably we have met a real expert." ”

"Connoisseur?" Guo Hu and the two looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Yes, connoisseur, although the previous Jin Sui army is vulnerable, it does not mean that all the generals of the North China warlords are incompetent, in fact, even the Jin Sui army has a lot of capable people, and there are many battlefield veterans in the Northwest Army, and the army is a fierce general, they have been on the battlefield for a long time, and their combat experience commands that they can deduce the route we may escape from the map, and it is not impossible to come in advance to intercept it."

Xu Guoren's speculation is not untargeted, but well-founded, although the vitality of the Northwest Army was greatly damaged after the Central Plains War, and Zhang Shaoshuai, who supported the troops and entered the customs, was incorporated one by one on behalf of the Nationalist Government, but its essence still exists.

Tong Linge, Zhang Zizhong, Pang Bingxun, Zhao Dengyu, Sun Lianzhong, Chi Fengcheng, etc. were all famous anti-Japanese generals who later made great achievements on the battlefield of resistance against Japan, and as for the officers under their command, there was no shortage of people of insight.

It is reasonable to be able to deduce the next move of Xu Guoren's security regiment and send troops to intercept it.

"Brother, what should we do then?" In a hurry, Guo Hu even changed his title: "When the Jin Suijun finds out that we are not in Pingyang, they will definitely catch up. ”

Xu Guoren fell into deep thought, thinking about countermeasures.

Guo Danian also scratched his head and said, "Could it be that they didn't go to Pingyang at all, and came here directly to encircle us, this will be around here?" ”

Xu Guoren shook his head resolutely and said: "No, because we will abandon Pingyang, they can't be 100% sure, so Pingyang still has to go, as long as they block our way forward, and wait for the Jin Sui army to follow and pursue from Pingyang, they can also surround us." ”

"Aren't we going to be able to escape?" Guo Danian said worriedly.

Xu Guoren said: "There is no absolute foolproof in this world, any tactics and encirclement have their weaknesses or fatal flaws, it depends on whether we can find them." ”

"Oh? Did you find it? Guo Danian was upright and asked casually.

Xu Guoren suddenly slapped him on the back of the head angrily: "Aren't I thinking about it!" ”

Guo Danian was slapped in the face, and immediately realized his mistake, smiled innocently, and said no more.

At this time, Guo Shiyin and Chen Zhiyuan rushed to hear the news one after another, and asked about the situation.

Chen Zhiyuan frowned and pondered for a while, and said to Xu Guoren: "Commander Xu, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not. ”

"What advice does Elder Chen have, even if he says it clearly!" Xu Guoren understood that this Chen Zhiyuan was by no means as simple as a medical craftsman, so he hurriedly said.

"After the end of the Central Plains War, the Northwest Army suffered particularly heavy losses, and its entire army was full of resentment towards the Jin Sui Army. It was only under pressure from the Northeast Army and the Nationalist Government that they had to temporarily shake hands and make peace and keep peace. If Head Xu wants to get out of trouble, Lao Yu thinks that he can ponder more in this regard.

Of course, the old man doesn't know much about military affairs, this is just a self-opinion based on current affairs, if there is something wrong, please do a lot of Haihan. ”

Xu Guoren was awakened by these words, and slapped his thigh and said, "Chen Lao is really my Zhuge ah!" These words are like an enlightenment, the Central Plains War ended with the defeat of the Jin Sui Army and the Northwest Army, and there will be a gap between the two armies, this is their weak point!

The commander of the Northwest Army that encircled and suppressed us was a smart man, but it seemed unlikely that he wanted to command two regiments of the Jin Sui Army with one regiment.

Therefore, knowing that the strategy of the Northwest Army is right, the Jin Sui Army may not necessarily implement it. This is our chance! ”

Guo Hu's brain turned fast and he already understood a little, but Guo Danian's reaction was half a beat slower, and he couldn't help asking: "Brother Guoren, what should we do?" ”

Xu Guoren didn't answer him in a hurry, but asked Guo Xiaoliu: "What is the situation you have detected?" Has the Northwest Army built a blockade ten miles away, or is it heading for us? ”

Guo Xiaoliu hurriedly replied: "They did not stop to build a blockade line, but along this road, they are heading towards us." ”

Xu Guoren muttered: "It seems that this Northwest Army doesn't take us seriously at all, generally speaking, they are blocking our way forward, we should look for dangerous places to set up ambushes, and at the worst of all, we have to build a defense line on the spot to block our way."

Wait for the other encirclement troops to come, so that we will not be able to escape.

However, they actually drove directly along the mountain road northwest of Pingyang in the direction of Pingyang, with the obvious intention of fighting an encounter with us, rather than waiting for a rabbit somewhere, and it was obvious that this Northwest Army thought that we were vulnerable, and even without the cooperation of friendly forces, they could defeat us in the field battle with their own strength and win the battle alone. ”

Xu Guoren's analysis was the Tao, and everyone nodded in unison.

Although Xu Guoren had never fought before the crossing, he had a flexible mind, and in the past six months, he had already experienced a lot of things, and he had experienced several battles large and small, and of course he would grow.

Especially in the face of adversity, people will burst out with the ability to learn and progress that is usually unattainable.

In addition, Xu Guoren has been a human being in two lives, and he has more insights into the analysis and understanding of human nature, so at this time, he has changed a lot compared to the young man who just wanted to masturbate.

"There's a way!" Xu Guoren suddenly slapped his thigh and said: "The arrogant army will be defeated, let's first set up an ambush, not to annihilate completely, but to retreat from the enemy with a small victory, so that this northwest army will retreat in difficulty, and then turn around to deal with the Jin Sui army behind." ”

"Ambush? Will it work? Guo Shiyin was a little worried: "According to the intelligence, the Northwest Army that came to encircle and suppress us is a regiment under Chifeng City!" Its number is the 208th Regiment of the 31st Division of the 26th Army of the National Revolutionary Army, and the regiment commander Zhou Shibin is the favorite general of Chifeng City, the leader of the Young Zhuang faction of the Northwest Army, and has made great achievements in the Central Plains War. ”

"The more bullish the person, the higher the vision and heart, as the saying goes, the arrogant army will be defeated, he put 100% blockade tactics do not use, take the initiative to attack to find us, has committed a military taboo, light the enemy paralyzed, this time just let him have a long memory!" Xu Guoren said this, but he was also a little worried.

He asked Guo Xiaoliu again: "Sixth son, when your reconnaissance company was conducting reconnaissance, you didn't let the other party find you, right?" ”

Guo Xiaoliu waved his chest and promised: "Absolutely not, this guy in the northwest hill belongs to an outsider, and he is not familiar with the terrain of our Pingyang at all." And our reconnaissance company has already touched the hundreds of miles around Pingyang, and the most important thing is that our reconnaissance company has horses to ride and has strong mobility ability, so its whereabouts have not been discovered by the other party! ”

"That's good." Xu Guoren put his mind at ease, and immediately found the most suitable ambush location on the map, a canyon called a line of heaven, where the security group passed by just now, Xu Guoren was startled, because the terrain there is very treacherous, once ambushed, it will be disastrous for the passing troops.

After determining the ambush site, Xu Guoren waved his hand and led the rear team of the troops to quickly retreat, while the reconnaissance company was cut off from reconnaissance and was responsible for cleaning up the traces left by the troops.
