Chapter 64: Do You Dare to Bet Bigger?

Liu Lang didn't speak, and stood straight waiting for Lieutenant General Liu to make his decision.

But unlike the major general who was silently calculating beside him, he knew and believed that the middle-aged man in front of him would send troops.

Because, in the past time and space, it was this middle-aged man in front of him who was like a teacher, at the most critical time of the Battle of Luowenyu, the Japanese army invested a full five or six thousand artillery to participate in the battle, and more than 20 bombers bombed, he personally carried a pistol and broadsword to stand on the front line of the Luowenyu Pass that had been bombarded by artillery to pieces, and led his troops to fight the enemy at close range with long and short guns and bayonets for several hours to repel the incoming enemy.

On the night of the defeat of the Japanese army's fierce attack, he sent an infantry battalion over five or six mountains, infiltrated the enemy camp, and fought with the enemy with shell guns, submachine guns, broadswords, and other weapons throughout the night, killing more than 500 enemies, and only 70 of the more than 600 people in the infantry battalion survived. The commander of the infantry battalion and two of the three company commanders were all killed, which can be called one of the most tragic counterattacks fought by the 29th Army in the Great Wall War of Resistance.

He was, and now, naturally, too.

"Okay, I'll grant you your request for support, but you'll have to tell me your battle plan before I can make a final decision." The lieutenant general finally made his own decision after much deliberation.

The face of the army major general on the side tightened slightly, and under the signal of the lieutenant general, he walked out of the headquarters and expanded the cordon to a range of 30 meters.

If the conversation here is listened to by someone with a heart and then leaked out, then I am afraid it is not only a matter of the lives of the 220 elites of the 37th Division, but also the lives of the 2nd Division.

Liu Lang's face was happy, he reached out and picked up the pencil on the table and drew it on the map, pointing out his location and even circled the position where the main force of the Japanese infantry was about to be stationed with a pencil.

"I request that the 2nd Provisional Division send an infantry battalion, carrying enough guns and ammunition, to cross our defense line on the Great Wall before midnight, and reach the right side of Banbi Mountain, and when our guns and cannons sound, we will enter the position and block for us from the front line of Luowenyu Pass to aid the Japanese army." Liu Lang said categorically.

"It's not that hard." The brigade commander of the major general nodded. "The hard thing is, how do we know how long we have to hold out there?"

Remember the URL mom

"I'm sorry, Brigadier Commander Li," I don't know how long it will take, and naturally I can't tell the brothers of the 2nd Division how much time they need to hold off the Japanese invaders, but I think that either I can shoot a signal flare that can retreat, or if there is no sound from the Japanese artillery position, then the brothers of the 2nd Division can retreat. Liu Lang shook his head and said.

The tone was very indifferent, but a trace of awe flashed in the eyes of the two generals, and they had a little more respect for the fat man in front of him.

What he said was nothing more than two scenarios, one was that they succeeded, attacked the Japanese artillery positions, and killed all the Japanese artillery;

The other is naturally a failure, an artillery brigade of the Japanese army is nearly 700 people, if two is 1400 people, plus two defensive infantry squadrons, the total strength of the force is 1800, although the Japanese artillery is not good at using guns, but 1400 artillery is 1400 pigs, it is not so easy to kill!

The two infantry squadrons should not be neglected, and in a field environment, a full infantry battalion is a little suspenseful to deal with them, not to mention that Liu Lang's 220 people are still going to charge. The chances of failure are not small.

And Liu Lang can say this, naturally he also has a budget for failure, but in what he said, failure is death, and he and his subordinates are ready to leave the battlefield alive.

Let's not talk about whether his tactics are excellent or not, this resoluteness alone is worthy of the admiration of the two generals.

They don't doubt that Liu Lang is just a mouth cannon, don't look at the ruffian just now, but this one has a record of killing 20 Japanese criminals alone in the first two days.

Such a person naturally would not boast in front of the two of them.

"Good! Since you, Captain Liu, have the heart to kill yourself and be loyal to the country, if I, Liu Ruming, protect my life, I am too sorry. The lieutenant general's gaze at Liu Lang softened a lot, and he also nodded firmly at the position circled by Liu Lang. Then I'll take out an infantry battalion to accompany you, Captain Liu, and the brothers of the "death squad" to fight against the Japanese. According to what you said, if either of the two possibilities arises, the infantry battalion will retreat, otherwise, as long as your death squad does not leave, my brothers from the 2nd Division will be crucified to the position and not let a single Japanese devil come back. ”

After a pause, his eyes became a little gloomy:

"But if there are really Japanese troops entering the battlefield, I hope you, Captain Liu, don't blame me, and don't blame those brothers, I believe they have done their best."

The meaning of this, as long as you are a soldier, understands.

"Thank you, sir!" Liu Lang gave a standard military salute to the lieutenant general.

This salute is for the two soldiers in front of him, and also for the soldiers who once stood on the majestic Great Wall and fired bullets in the face of the thousands of artillery fire of the Japanese invaders.

"Okay, okay, Lao Tzu paid an infantry battalion to go out, and your baby will give me a military salute and it's over?" Liu Ruming returned a military salute. "Your baby has memorized it for me, after this battle, you have to invite me and Brigade Commander Li to have a good drink."

"By the way, I have another question for you, how do you determine that the Japanese artillery will definitely be stationed there?" Only then did the lieutenant general remember the most crucial point in Liu Lang's tactical plan.

If the Japanese artillery units were not there, then everything was empty talk. With the current location of the "death squad", except for the valley where they could attack best and had a certain possibility of success, the rest of the place was almost no different from being sent to death in vain.

Fat butterflies naturally can't say: old-timers! I dare to guarantee 100% where the Japanese artillery will be, because I have read the military history! Where are they going to be, are those military historians who rely on studying all kinds of war reports and records every day to eat?

"Can I say it's intuition?" Lang chubby winked.

"Can't!" The brigade commander of the major general threw a murderous look over.

As a senior officer who has stepped into the ranks of generals, he rarely can't understand a person, but he really can't understand the person in front of him, switching back and forth between righteousness and shamelessness, and he walks freely, so that people don't know which is the real him.

"Alright! I'll admit, I'm gambling! Liu Lang drew three more locations on the map. This is one of the three areas where Japanese artillery is likely to be stationed, and where I am now is one of them, which is already a one-third possibility. ”

"But I have studied the combat characteristics of the Japanese infantry, and they especially like to win by surprise, and they like to play tricks the most, such as their infantry tactics, often attracting the main force of the opponent on the main battlefield, and sending small forces to bypass the opponent's position, attacking from both flanks or even the rear." Liu Lang continued. "And here, it is most in line with their characteristics, it is close enough to Luo Wenyu, and once the tactics change, it can cover the two flanks of the Luo Wenyu battlefield."

"Although there is no guarantee of 100% certainty, but before the two chiefs, before the fight, who in this world can guarantee a 100% victory rate? There is a more than 50 percent chance that we have to gamble. Liu Lang's voice was low. What's more, at this time, not to mention 50 percent, that is, 10 percent, we must also gamble, even if we win or lose the bet, we have to bet on our own lives first. ”

The two smiled bitterly, but they were speechless to refute, they just wanted to say to this talkative fat guy: What your special mother said is right.

Indeed, the Japanese have cornered China, and in order to hold the defensive line, even if they lose their lives, they have to gamble with the Japanese.

"By the way, speaking of gambling, are the two chiefs interested in playing with Liu Lang a little bigger?" Liu Lang suddenly said again.
