The brigade commander said: "There is no time, the rest of the food is burned!" ”

"Burned?" Zhao Gang was stunned, "Brigade commander, you will definitely be able to transport it away before evening." ”

The brigade commander said: "As I said just now, there is no time, and the new second regiment is almost unbearable." ”

Zhao Gang said: "Brigade commander, in this case, I have a suggestion, in fact, there is no need to burn the grain." ”

"Suggestions?" The brigade commander was surprised, "What do you suggest?" ”

Zhao Gang said: "From the current situation, the Independent Regiment, the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment have all been entangled with the devils, and it is impossible to get out of the way. ”

"It's not surprising." The brigade commander said, "From the very beginning, we didn't think about retreating, but prepared to fight a real decisive battle with the Japanese army in Taiyuan!" ”

Zhao Gang nodded and said: "As the saying goes, under the nest, there are eggs, after the war starts, the entire Taiyuan may be beaten into ruins, and it will be the people in the city who will suffer at that time." ”

The brigade commander frowned and said, "There is no way to do this. ”

Zhao Gang said: "Although I said that, the people of Taiyuan will definitely complain about us in their hearts." ”

"So?" The brigade commander's heart moved and said, "Zhao Gang, do you have any good solutions?" ”

"Yes, there is a solution." Zhao Gang nodded, and said, "We can distribute the remaining more than 30,000 tons of grain to the people of Taiyuan, on the condition that we move out of Taiyuan City." ”

"Take food in exchange for them to evacuate Taiyuan City?" The brigade commander was stunned and said, "Is 30,000 tons of grain enough?" ”

"Just 30,000 tons of grain is definitely not enough." Zhao Gang shook his head and said, "There are 300,000 people in Taiyuan City, and 30,000 tons of grain sounds like a lot, but in fact, each person is only 200 catties." ”

"Just 200 catties of grain will make the people of Taiyuan give up their homes, which is indeed a bit unkind."

"Therefore, I think we should also come up with 10 million lackey tickets, so that everyone can get almost 30 yuan, and a family of three can get 100 yuan lackey tickets."

"It's almost enough for them to rebuild their homes."

"Hmm......" the brigade commander fell into deep thought.

Zhao Gang's move, to put it bluntly, is to win the hearts and minds of the people.

This is very beneficial to erecting the image of the Eighth Route Army in the hearts of the people of Taiyuan and raising the mass base of the Eighth Route Army, and it may not be effective in a short period of time.

But there are many changes that happen imperceptibly.

At that moment, the brigade commander nodded and said, "Yes, you hurry up and do it!" ”

"Yes!" Zhao Gang saluted, turned around and left in a hurry.

The brigade commander turned his head to Yuan Qinglin and said, "Order the independent regiment, the new first regiment, and the new second regiment to alternately cover and withdraw from the battle one by one!" ”

"Yes!"

……

In Gujiao County, the cavalry battalion is in trouble.

"Battalion commander, battalion commander......" A scout cavalry galloped from the north.

Sun Desheng stepped forward and asked, "What's the situation?" Did the devil puppet army in Gujiao County dispatch? ”

Sun Desheng did not pay attention to the devil puppet army in Gujiao County, because according to reliable intelligence, there is only one team of devils left in Gujiao County, and there is only one company of the puppet army.

Such a little devil puppet army is not enough to even give them a cavalry battalion.

Therefore, Sun Desheng even hoped that the devil puppet army in Gujiao County would be dispatched.

In this case, their cavalry battalion may be able to easily capture a county seat.

"It's not." The scout cavalry shook his head and said, "It's not the devil puppet army in Gujiao County. ”

After a pause, the scout cavalry said again: "There is a large group of devil cavalry coming from the direction of Goudi Village in the north, at least more than a thousand horsemen!" ”

"What?" Sun Desheng's pupils suddenly contracted sharply, "More than a thousand rides? A wing? ”

"Yes." The scout cavalry gasped, "We can see clearly from the millstone ditch. ”

"Millstone ditch?" Sun Desheng's face sank, and he said sharply, "Guard, map, hurry up!" ”

The guards who followed behind Sun Desheng hurriedly took out the map from his satchel and spread it out in front of Sun Desheng.

Sun Desheng first found Moshigou from the map, then moved north from Moshigou, and then found Goudi Village, and then compared Goudi Village to their location, less than five kilometers!

Sun Desheng's face collapsed in an instant, less than five kilometers!

At this distance, the cavalry march would take less than half an hour!

Looking back at the people's transport team that was marching mightily on the highway, Sun Desheng's face was even more embarrassed.

If this cavalry wing of the devil appears here, then it will have to be? That's really a tiger into the group! How can the casualties of the people be tens of thousands!

No, the devil cavalry must be blocked!

The task assigned to them by the brigade commander for the cavalry battalion was to protect the Minfu convoy!

At that moment, Sun Desheng shouted loudly: "Pass my order, the cavalry battalion urgently assembles!" ”

After receiving Sun Desheng's order, the cavalry scattered in many places rushed over to gather.

However, before the cavalry battalion could complete its assembly, another reconnaissance cavalry rushed in.

This time, it was the scout cavalry from the south who came, and said loudly: "Battalion commander, a brigade of devil cavalry has been found in the direction of Goudongliang!" At least five hundred riders! ”

"What? Another 500 devil cavalry from the direction of the east beam of the ditch? ”

Five hundred horsemen, it is estimated that this is another cavalry wing of devils!

Suddenly, Sun Desheng's face turned black to the bottom of the pot, and he was in big trouble.

Sun Desheng looked at the map again and found that the distance between the east beams of the ditch was only ten kilometers.

In other words, if nothing else, in about half an hour, the Devil Cavalry Wing from the north will be the first to encounter them.

In another half an hour, the Devil Cavalry Wing from the south will also arrive.

At that time, their cavalry battalion would fall under siege by the two cavalry wings of the devils.

And in fact, not to mention two wings, even just one cavalry wing is enough for them to drink a pot.

Although the cavalry battalion has strengthened two cavalry companies, it is only 600 cavalry when it is fully armed, and it is very difficult to deal with one of them.

If he was Sun Desheng in the past, he would definitely choose to fight hard with the devil cavalry without thinking.

First fight the devil cavalry with a small number in the south, and then fight the devil with a large number in the north, as for how many devil cavalry can be fought in the end, only God knows.

But now, Sun Desheng has changed his thinking.

There is a saying that those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black.

has been with Wang Yanwei for a long time, and he has suffered a lot, and Sun Desheng has unconsciously begun to use his brain.

Sun Desheng almost subconsciously thought, if Wang Yan was in his position, what choice would he make?

Needless to say, Wang Yan will definitely try his best to win more with less, he not only wants to win, but also to win beautifully, 600 cavalry against 1500 cavalry, there may not be no chance of winning.
