After Ren Laifeng rewarded Wang Sanmeng, he immediately gathered the generals of the Flying Tiger Camp together to arrange tasks. Since Yang Xiaowan went to report to the Japanese, the devil would definitely send a large army to sweep it up next. The Flying Tiger Battalion must prepare for it in advance.

"Let's dig traps in the village and set up an ambush, the devil is coming, so he will lose his troops and there will be no return!" Gu Dafeng, the commander of the first company, came up with the first idea.

"We can't be in the village, we should go outside the village to fight the devils. The village is the home of the common people, and now it is also the headquarters of our Flying Tiger Battalion. Once a war breaks out, the whole village may be destroyed, what will happen to the furniture of the people's houses? What to do with the chickens and pigs that people raise? "It is Zhou Lin who can think of the interests of the people when considering the problem.

For Zhou Lin's point, Ren Laifeng is the most in favor. Aren't soldiers fighting wars for the common people? Driving the devils out of China is also so that our people will not be bullied by the devils and will not be harmed by the devils. If the battle we designed ourselves destroys the houses and livestock of the common people, then what is the point of this battle? As soon as Zhou Lin's opinion came out, Gu Dafeng's suggestion was rejected at that time.

Fu Erchong was still in that quick temper, as soon as he saw Ren Laifeng looking at him, he opened his mouth and came: "I think we can fight halfway, why do we have to wait for the devil to come to the village before starting a war?" ”

"That's right! Company Commander Fu is right! Li Lishan, the captain of the independent brigade, gave a thumbs up and praised Fu Erchong for the first time.

This guy isn't patting a two-stroke horse, is he? Ren Laifeng's eyes when he looked at Li Lishan again had an extra layer of meaning. Captain Li didn't care what others thought of him at all, and still explained to everyone with an excited expression why he supported Fu Erchong, "According to Company Commander Fu's meaning, let's find a suitable place on the way and fight devils in an ambush!" ”

Terrain? Is there any terrain that can be ambushed between Zaozhuang and Yangzhuang? Of course. At that time, there was no road connecting the villages, and only the village-level dirt roads were connected from Zaozhuang to Yangzhuang. In addition to the hills and coal mines, there are trees of all sizes all over the mountain. It can be said that in addition to the farmland is hills and woods, it is not difficult to find a terrain where ambushes can be arranged.

The only uncertainty now is where is the best place to place the ambush? Yang Xiaowan has been walking for almost two hours, and it is estimated that the kid has already seen the devil commander who stayed in Zaozhuang. Now I just don't know when the devil will be dispatched, even if Ren Laifeng wants to go to Zaozhuang in person to choose a terrain, he doesn't dare to move the place, what if he hasn't chosen the terrain yet, the devil has already been dispatched?

There is a saying: find an expert if you have a problem. Of course, if you have any questions about the terrain, you should consult someone who is familiar with the terrain. Isn't the Wang Sanmeng who was rewarded by Ren Laifeng a suitable person?

Wang Sanmeng was soon called, and when he understood the intention of the battalion commander Ren to come over, his excited mouth was almost grinning at the back of his head.

Wang Sanmeng is a native of the country, and he doesn't know how many times he has walked from Yangzhuang to Zaozhuang, and he knows where there are stones and ditches with his eyes closed. Ren Laifeng asked him about the terrain, and this was really the right expert.

For fear that the chiefs would not understand, he simply proposed that everyone go to the courtyard, and he quickly found a place where the soil was soft, and took a branch and drew a picture directly underground. Where are the mountains, where there are ditches, where there are slopes, where there are pits, draw them to the ground and then mark them with symbols to explain, and everyone present can see them clearly.

Oh, oh, that's what happened! Ren Laifeng looked at the simple map underground, and suddenly remembered a practical tactical tool, the sand table. This thing was born during the Anti-Japanese War, and he didn't have the Flying Tiger Battalion yet, so it is estimated that Sun Tongxuan's group army should be equipped with it, right?

The sand table production process is not complicated, as long as you know the specific terrain and use sand to pile it up to keep it similar to the real thing. That thing looks direct, and the deployment of troops is more clear. When there are conditions in the future, you must do a set! Ren Laifeng secretly made a decision in his heart.

It's easy to do with a map, which company is deployed where, and which company is deployed. The Flying Tiger Battalion has three main companies plus an independent brigade, one main attack, two secondary attacks, and one backup. As for the small artillery platoon, machine gun platoon, etc., find a place that is safe and can hit the target and hide it. When to receive an order and when to fire, these troops have been hiding without an order.

The flawless ambush tactics have been arranged, and Ren Laifeng ordered all the Flying Tiger Battalion to assemble! Bring weapons and dry food and set off immediately, and go to the place first if you are thirsty or hungry.

The main attack task was still handed over to the second company, and the first company and the independent brigade participated in the flanking attack from the left and right, and Ren Laifeng took the third company as a reserve ready to support at any time.

The troops arrived at the selected address and just laid an ambush, and there was a cloud of dust in the distance, and the devil was coming! Ren Laifeng stood on the hillside and watched with a telescope in his hand, and saw a team coming with the dust at the place where the battle flag was flying!

In front of it was a group of puppet soldiers to open the way, and behind it was a long group of devils trailing. There were several horsemen in the team, presumably the commanders of the Japanese puppet army. Isn't the 10th Division participating in the Battle of Taierzhuang known as a modern division and a mechanized division, Ren Laifeng thought that the devil would come by driving a car and a tank, but he didn't expect it to be walking on two legs!

The idea of seizing a few cars fell through, which made Ren Laifeng feel extremely unhappy. Could it be that the devil drove all the tanks and cars to Taierzhuang? Didn't they leave a few cars in Zaozhuang? Zaozhuang? Ren Laifeng's heart moved, the devil sent so many people to Yangzhuang, is Zaozhuang empty? If he leads the people to appear in Zaozhuang now, wouldn't he copy the back path of the devil?

The more Ren Laifeng thought about it, the more he felt that it was a good idea to go to Zaozhuang. It has always been his habit to do it when he thinks of it, and Ren Laifeng came down from the hillside and immediately ordered the third company to assemble! At the same time, three heralds were sent to inform the first and second companies and the independent brigade, telling them that they were going to Zaozhuang and asking these three troops to complete the task of blocking the enemy by themselves. The temporary front-line commander is concurrently served by Fu Erchong, the commander of the second company.

The heralds were sent out, and Ren Laifeng led the third company to set off immediately. The soldier is very fast, he wants to take Zaozhuang before the devil returns to the division!

The devil comes along the road, and the wind takes another road. Anyway, there is no asphalt road with particularly good road conditions between Yangzhuang and Zaozhuang, and it is the same for all country dirt roads. There is really no road, and people can walk on the dirt slopes and in the fields. The map drawn by Wang Sanmeng, Ren Laifeng still had a general impression in his mind, and he couldn't get lost with this impression.

Let the wind be careful when he leaves, he doesn't want to make a mess like a devil. He deliberately put a little more care on his side, and the dust didn't shake up, and the devils a few hundred meters away really didn't notice it at all.
