Li Hao's eyes were full of admiration when he looked at Chief of Staff Zhou.

This is the old revolution.

There is no selfishness on the battlefield, he is dedicated to the public, and the friendly troops are in trouble, and they have to be reinforced even if they fight for their lives.

Hong Linfeng's reaction was even more exaggerated, and his face instantly turned red.

Before, he was worried that others would steal the credit of the garrison regiment after the command was handed over, but now he is not worried.

Chief of Staff Zhou's answer was like a resounding slap in the face, making him snap.

Li Hao didn't want to embarrass the chief of staff too much, so he hurriedly replied: "Rest assured, the strength of the four main regiments is enough. ”

"The reason why I am in a hurry to let you come to the front line, chief, is that I want you to urge the four main regiments to rush to the battlefield as soon as possible, replace the garrison troops in the north and west of the city, and let them return to the base area tonight."

Chief of Staff Zhou should come down on the spot: "So that's the case?" No problem? ”

"Before the troops set off, our Commander Chen repeatedly explained that when they arrive at the battlefield, they must obey your command, just give them orders directly, and they don't need to go through my hands."

"Thank you, Chief, for your trust." Li Hao no longer hesitated, pointed to the map and began to introduce his thoughts.

"The four main regiments of the reinforcement battlefield in the northwest of Jin were divided into two, taking over from the Datong Independent Battalion and the Guangling Independent Battalion, and launched a feint attack from the north and west of the city."

"After the siege began, the four regiments had to undertake the siege task independently, and I was not familiar with them, so I called the chief."

"After the siege troops enter Datong, the garrison will gradually withdraw from the battle, and I will personally command them to march back to the base area."

"The rest of the battle will be handed over to you to command, chief, gather troops and quickly intersperse in the city, solve the remnants of the enemy, and occupy Datong City."

Chief of Staff Zhou figured it out, going around in such a big circle, it turned out that Li Hao had called himself over to take over the command.

The first instinctive reaction is to refuse.

Halfway through the battle, outsiders who come to take over the command, and outsiders who don't understand the reason will definitely think of themselves as those who came to pick peaches and steal the results of the battle.

As soon as the words reached his mouth, Chief of Staff Zhou swallowed it back.

After thinking about it seriously, I suddenly found that the fighting style proposed by Li Hao was very powerful: every soldier and every second on the battlefield was used on the blade, and there was no waste.

Not only can it ensure that the troops succeed in taking Datong, but they can also keep the base area and achieve the greatest results at the lowest cost.

Chief of Staff Zhou decided that he should come down.

As for others saying that they picked peaches and stole the results of the garrison......

They like to think and think, as long as they have a clear conscience, as long as they can win this battle, some of their reputation will be gone.

looked at Li Hao and replied solemnly: "Okay, just do as you say!" You command the troops before they enter the city, and I will command them after the city is broken, and you take the troops back to the base area, and strive to knock the Japanese army with a stick, so that they will not return. ”

Li Hao was very happy and quickly replied: "Thank you for your support." ”

After finishing speaking, he pulled the topic back, pointed to the map and asked, "Then when will the four regiments you brought be in place?" ”

"Intelligence shows that there are still nearly 4,000 Japanese puppet troops and more than 1,000 armed expatriates temporarily formed by the Japanese in Datong City. Minus the guards needed for reserves and important facilities, with a maximum of a thousand people in each direction. ”

"The four main regiments attacked from the north and west of the city, without any artillery support."

"After the siege began, the Japanese puppet army in these two directions was held back at all costs, and they were not given the opportunity to reinforce other city gates."

"The east of the city is our main direction of attack, and I am confident that I can blow up the city wall with heavy artillery within three hours and cover the troops to kill in."

"One of the four walls has been breached, and the Japanese puppet army on the other three walls will be attacked on their backs."

"Unless they want to be wiped out on the city, they can only abandon the fortifications and retreat to the city."

"The siege troops took advantage of the situation to enter Datong City, use the advantage of troops to fight street battles with the enemy in guerrilla warfare, which we are good at, eliminate the remnants of the enemy, and completely occupy Datong City!"

"The rest of the battle will be under your command, Chief."

"After the city is breached, the main force of the garrison regiment will hand over the position to friendly troops within an hour, and then march back to the base area in a hurry."

Since Chief of Staff Zhou has already accepted Li Hao's request, he must do a good job.

looked at Li Hao's analysis: "After the retreat of the Chengpo garrison regiment, there are only the four main regiments I brought here, the Huaiyuan Independent Regiment, and the two thousand people of the Laishui Independent Regiment. Datong City is very large, and we must not only control the occupied area, but also eliminate the remnants of the Japanese puppet army, and the number of troops is too small. ”

"I'll send a telegram to the commander now, and gather another main regiment and two thousand local troops to march to reinforce the battlefield."

"Local troops control the occupied areas and maintain law and order, and the main forces attack the remnants of the enemy, so that the front-line combat units can ensure that they always have absolute superiority in strength."

Seeing that Chief of Staff Zhou had already entered the state, Li Hao continued: "Chief, if you have no opinion, then we will decide this matter?" ”

"Don't rush yet!" Chief of Staff Zhou shook his head and interrupted.

"There are still two small issues that need to be solved before this plan can be finalized."

"One problem is that we have two main regiments, and they will not be in place until the early hours of the morning at the earliest."

"One problem is that they have very few heavy weapons, each regiment has only one fire company, armed with three to six heavy machine guns and three mortars."

"There is a lot of pressure to hold off the city defense garrison only by attacking."

Li Hao didn't worry too much, and made a decision after thinking about it for a while.

"The first problem is easy to solve, we will change the attack time to 1 o'clock in the morning."

"The Japanese puppet army outside the city was almost killed by us, as long as there is no accident in the base area, it doesn't matter if you attack early or late."

"It is not difficult to solve the second problem: to eliminate the Japanese puppet army outside the city, we have captured a lot of heavy machine guns and mortars."

"I will give an order now: When the Datong Independent Battalion and the Guangling Independent Battalion retreat, each will leave five mortars, five heavy machine guns, and ten light machine guns."

"Ten more mortars, ten heavy machine guns, twenty light machine guns on my side.

"Add them, heavy weapons are enough!"

"The devil will definitely not dare to go out of the city now, the two regiments you brought first, chief, will now take over the offensive positions of the Datong Independent Battalion and the Guangling Independent Battalion."

"As soon as the next two regiments are in place, we will attack."

Chief of Staff Zhou was very clear: An hour earlier the reinforcements returned, the chance of danger in the base area would be a few points less.

He immediately replied: "Then I will go to the north and west of the city now, and replace your two independent battalions as soon as possible." ”

Li Hao turned his head and ordered: "Chief of Staff, immediately prepare ten mortars, ten heavy machine guns, and twenty light machine guns for the chief to bring over together." ”

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the commander of the 12th Regiment in the northwest of Shanxi rushed to the north of Datong City at noon.

In the next hour, troops gathered one after another.

A guard suddenly rushed into the temporary regimental headquarters and reported nervously and excitedly.

"Regiment commander, the chief of staff is here!"

The regiment commander looked puzzled, the staff officer was obviously by his side, why did there be another chief of staff, and subconsciously asked: "Which chief of staff!" ”

"It's me......" Before the guard could speak, Chief of Staff Zhou had already strode in.

The head of the regiment was taken aback by the visitor, and he also began to get nervous, and hurried to report.

"Hello Chief!"

"I'm fine!" Chief of Staff Zhou directly said what he meant: "Commander Wang, how many people have arrived in your twelfth regiment?" ”

The regiment commander replied with a puzzled face: "The first battalion lacks a company, the second battalion lacks a company, the third battalion has reached a company, the firepower company is still on the way, and it will definitely be all in place before six o'clock." ”

"It's too slow!" Chief of Staff Zhou was very dissatisfied with the order: "Don't wait for them?" Bring the troops that are already in place, and now take over the offensive position of the garrison regiment in the north of the city. ”

"From now on, your 12th regiment and the 6th regiment that came over in the early morning will guard the north of the city for me, and if there are devils who come out, they will be resolutely eliminated. At one o'clock in the morning, an attack on the north of the city was launched on time, and the Japanese army was not allowed to transfer a single soldier from the north of the city! ”
