In fact, Guo Zhuocheng's direct column did not need such a long time to prepare, and there was no need to build too many and too strong fortifications. Because his troops were attacking, the main purpose was to attack rather than defend, and it was simply not necessary to build too many fortifications, only a few artillery positions were needed.

However, in order to keep Hu Zongnan's troops farther away from Chong-Qing, and to prevent Hu Zongnan from rushing back when he found out that Xue Yue's troops were wiped out, Guo Zhuocheng could only wait, and could only let a small number of troops repair fortifications while other troops conducted tactical training.

In order to outwit Chong-Qing, Guo Zhuocheng had to grieve himself and had to delay the time to launch the attack. Because he knew that Chong-Qing was not Heng-Yang, and it didn't matter whether Heng-Yang was broken or not, because he wasn't going to occupy it for a long time, just loot something that could be exchanged with that time and space in 1992 and leave. However, Chongqing is a big city that he intends to use as the supreme headquarters of the Red Army, and is ready to be stationed for a long time, and the Red Army will always stay here, and like the entire Sichuan, it will never be snatched away by any other force, and of course it cannot be destroyed. If necessary, he can even give up Guizhou, and he will not let Sichuan lose.

Besides, Chongqing is a mountain city, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if Hu Zongnan's central army is allowed to defend the city, they can use various terrain to snipe the attacking side (the Red Army), which will greatly increase the difficulty of the Red Army's attack, although it will eventually be captured, but the Red Army's losses will not be small.

The future attack on Chong-Qing is also different from the previous attack on Gan-Zhou City, and when attacking Gan-Zhou City, Song Xilian was not prepared at all. He thought that it would be impossible for the Red Army to break the fortifications of the city in a short time. The defenders didn't need to engage in street fighting right away. Therefore, when Guo Shucheng's troops rushed in, he did not have time to arrange for the troops to disperse, and he did not have time to order the troops to use the houses to conduct street battles, so that many officers and soldiers did not participate in the battle, and they obediently became prisoners before they even left the barracks.

And Hu Zongnan will definitely not make this kind of mistake, once he knows that Xue Yue's army has failed, he will definitely arrange for the troops to fight in the street as soon as possible, and he will definitely plan for the worst. I will definitely wait until the arrival of the tax police corps.

Of course, Guo Zhuocheng was sure that he would be able to clean up Hu Zongnan's troops before the arrival of the Tax Police Corps, but he added a lot of difficulties out of thin air, didn't he?

Therefore, Guo Zhuocheng began to pretend to make pre-war preparations and waited for Hu Zongnan to leave Chongqing.

The subordinate column not only built more than a dozen artillery positions, 10 mortar positions, but also more than a dozen anti-aircraft machine gun positions. The main purpose is to prevent the planes of the Central Army from conducting low-altitude reconnaissance, strafing, and bombing.

At present, the planes are technologically backward and fly slowly, fly low, have no bomb throwing and aiming equipment, and basically rely on eyes and telescopes for reconnaissance; in a mountainous place like Guizhou, when the Spring Festival is foggy, the planes are of little use, and can only be dispatched for a few hours at noon on a sunny day.

The pilots knew that the Red Army had weapons to shoot them down, and they were already terrified. Plus it is not known the performance of anti-aircraft machine guns, it is not known what their effective firing height is. Because they only dare to fly around at an altitude of more than 3,000 meters.

In this way, the reconnaissance role of these planes is basically only a little famous, and the high-flying pilots cannot detect any intelligence at all, and as for the bombing, it is even more fake, and the houses are smaller than ants at an altitude of several thousand meters, and the river is a curve, and the human figure cannot be seen at all, so how can it be bombed? At most, they used aviation machine guns to strafe their frustration.

It can be said that Xue Yue did not know anything about the situation of the Red Army.

Fortunately, he was on the defensive, and with his own strong troops, he didn't care too much about the incomplete information, and just worked hard to strengthen his defenses and try to repair more fortifications.

This time, he treated Guo Zhuocheng's troops as the biggest enemy, and almost all of the troops were used by him, either the main defense force or the reserve, in order to prevent being broken by the other side, he also asked his six divisions to be on guard, and the divisions were separated by less than five kilometers, so that they could cover each other and support each other, no matter which division Guo Zhuocheng's troops attacked, he could quickly mobilize at least one division of troops for reinforcement.

His corps headquarters was in the middle of three divisions, with two main defense units in front and a division as a reserve in the back, in addition to a guard regiment directly under him, and a gendarmerie battalion. These well-equipped units could be used to protect the headquarters and to support the gaps that had been broken by the Red Army.

Guo Shucheng, Mao Zetan, Chen Peng, Wang Guangdao, and others spent most of their time analyzing the intelligence of Xue Yue's corps and formulating corresponding plans based on the intelligence.

Completely different from Xue Yue, Guo Zhuocheng knew the deployment of Xue Yue's corps well.

Under the personal leadership of Sun Xingguo and Song Jun, the special forces detachment continued to go deep into the enemy's position to conduct reconnaissance of the enemy's situation. The special forces led by them crossed the river and entered the opponent's position as if they were in a no-man's land, and the other party did not notice them at all.

Thinking about it, Sun Xingguo and Song Jun were able to get each other's information smoothly in that time and space in 1992, let alone in this era. Although the small detachments they led had not been joining the special forces for a long time, they were all elites in a thousand, shrewd and flexible, and had rich combat experience. In addition, there are a few prisoners who have been transformed from the Central Army, and they are very familiar with the characteristics of the Central Army, and some even have acquaintances in the Xue Yue Corps, ...... they naturally collect intelligence.

It can be said that the outcome of this battle was decided at the very beginning, and the situation before the war was one-way transparent, Guo Zhuocheng and others had a clear understanding of the situation on Xue Yue's side, and they knew all the artillery positions, machine gun positions, important fortifications, troop assembly areas, ammunition depots, and so on. The artillery on the side of the Red Army was strong, especially the M-2 howitzer, which not only had a caliber of 105 mm, but also had a standard firing range of 12 kilometers, which almost enveloped most of the troops of Xue Yue's corps.

The entire strength of the Xue Yue Corps is lined up along the Wuyang River, with a length of more than 20 kilometers, but the depth is not large, and some of them build fortifications along the river, although there are several lines of defense, but its depth is only six or seven kilometers, not only within the range of the M-2 howitzer, but also within the range of the 92 infantry guns and 100 mm caliber mortars.

The staff officers of the artillery regiment marked in detail the enemy's targets and importance levels on the military map, calculated the relevant elements and coordinates, and also compiled the order of strikes in detail.

According to Guo Zhuocheng's request, the artillery gave priority to attacking the enemy's headquarters, artillery positions, ammunition storage sites, and fortifications, and tried to hit as many materials as possible and less people, because he needed a large number of prisoners of war, not only to expand the number of soldiers, but more importantly, to build and develop a large labor force in Sichuan.

Of course, he will not use these compatriots as slaves, but will take advantage of their fear when they are captured, force them to learn relevant construction knowledge, master construction skills, and train them to become knowledgeable and literate construction personnel in the future. I believe that in the future, not only will they not regret it, they will not hate, but they will be more happy, happy that they can find a good job and earn more money than other people who have no knowledge......

Although they are cannon fodder for Jiang Jiaoshi, they are first and foremost Chinese, a strong labor force.

Waiting for the conditions to be basically ripe in all aspects, Guo Zhuocheng did not let the special forces continue to collect intelligence, but ordered them to quickly sneak to Guiyang, to sneak attack the airfield there, and seize Jiang Jieshi's planes as much as possible, especially the pilots. No matter what era it is, pilots are the most valuable talents, and the more the better.

At present, most of the attention of the Central Army is focused on the front line of the Wuyang River, and some of them are continuing to look for the main Red Army, which has suddenly disappeared.

On the afternoon of 5 April, Guo Zhuocheng, Mao Runtan, and others took their staff officers to inspect the positions one by one.

Looking at the bright artillery with the muzzle raised, Mao Runtan and other red-officers and soldiers really had mixed feelings, although they were very suspicious of how these artillery pieces came from, but at this time their more thoughts were replaced by surprise.

Naturally, Guo Zhuocheng brought these from that time and space in 1992, and when the troops reached Huangping County, he took the special combat team to blockade some places, and then took out artillery, mortars, antiaircraft machine guns, ammunition, fuel, food, and so on, and lied to the outside world that he had discovered the secret arsenal of the Central Army. Of course, this is a lie, at least it can't deceive Mao Runtan and the others, because they know that these weapons don't even have the Central Army, and if they do, they would have been used a long time ago.

But they couldn't imagine that Guo Zhuocheng was a great cheater, and he was able to transport weapons from that time and space in 1992.

Guo Zhuocheng not only brought weapons, but also brought equipment for erecting pontoon bridges, such as inflatable bridge boxes, rubber rafts, bridge piles with propeller drive, portable alloy bridge decks, automatic loading and unloading bridge erection vehicles, ......, these are all from the 1992 time and space boat and bridge troops of the obsolete products, but in this time and space is advanced, at present only the United States, Germany have these equipment.

Under the leadership of Liu Xiangyang, the officers and men of the engineer regiment were overjoyed and overjoyed, and they quickly began to train the troops and began to study day and night in accordance with the operation manual.

In addition to the fact that it was a bit difficult to drive a vehicle, in fact, the technical content of using these equipment to erect a pontoon bridge was not very high, and under the leadership of Liu Xiangyang, the officers and men quickly mastered the relevant skills, and they finally erected it in a decent manner after several days of continuous practice in the rivers and lakes around the county seat of Huangping County.

For a column without tanks or armored vehicles, this pontoon bridge was strong enough for the troops to cross the river. If you want to use guò tanks and armored vehicles, you will need further training, but Guo Zhuocheng still decided to let them participate in actual combat, and accumulated actual combat experience, so that in the future, they will be able to erect pontoon bridges and open up roads faster and better.
