Chapter 231: Planning and deployment on the eve of the duel

The county seat of Lin'an County. Fang's compound. North Courtyard East House South House Restaurant.

The table was filled with delicacies and elixirs, and the joyful feast was carried out in a relaxed and happy atmosphere. Guo Shuting couldn't help but be overjoyed, Yan Bo and Chunlan were surprised when they looked at the delicious dishes and exquisite cups and plates on the table, not to mention that they had eaten or used it before, they had never even seen it, and Fang Lusheng had not eaten such a good meal for many years.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Fang Jiren received an urgent report of the military situation from the flying pigeons of the lurking squad of the special column outside the county. After reading it, he first felt a sense of relief and peace, but when he read the words "three-way eating" again, he suddenly felt that a boulder suddenly fell and smashed heavily on his heart, and what made him even more puzzled was: three-way? Why Threeway? Which three? What is the situation like? How's the battle going? Many questions and doubts sprung up in Fong's mind, and more were deeply uneasy and predicting the imminent crisis. Fang Jiren got up and left his seat, hurriedly walked out of the dining room, returned to his bedroom on the second floor of the Moon Tower, sat at the desk, picked up a pen and wrote a line of words on a note two fingers wide and three inches long, and then rolled it into a thin paper roll and left the Moon Tower, strode out of the north courtyard to the pigeon room in the northwest corner of the west courtyard, gently grabbed a carrier pigeon, tied the paper roll to the pigeon's leg and walked out of the pigeon room to fly. After circling twice over the courtyard, the carrier pigeon flapped its wings towards the glorious southwest sky of the sunset.

The west of the county seat of Lin'an County, western Hebei region. Shuihe Village, Hebei Border Region. The east entrance of the village.

The sun sets in the west and the jade rabbit rises in the east. The heat slowly dissipates and the breeze blows lightly.

After dinner, Yu Genshan and Han Dagang left the regiment headquarters and walked out of the east entrance of the village and strolled on the loess avenue in the middle of the endless and dense cornfields.

"Commander, what's the matter with you? Do you have to pull me out and say it? Don't you know that I have a lot to do? ”

"Nonsense! No matter how much you have to do, can you do more than the head of my group? There are no confidential matters of importance, what am I pulling you out for? Did I eat too much for dinner? ”

"If you have it, the official will crush people to death. Commander, if there is anything confidential and important, you can tell me quickly. After a while, I had to go back to the regiment headquarters to give a tactical lesson to the squad and platoon commanders. ”

"Okay, then I'll make a long story short and don't delay your lecture. Dagang, why did you say that the Japanese army in Lin'an Town sent three squads to attack Shuihe Village at the same time in three ways this afternoon? Why didn't the Japanese army in the county seat of Lin'an County move? What military action will the Japanese army take next? What should we do next? ”

"Huh? Commander, your question is just four questions. Okay, then I'll tell you one by one. I've been pondering this since the battle this afternoon, and I haven't had any concrete results yet, but I have some personal thoughts. Regiment commander, the Japanese army in Lin'an Town dispatched three squads to attack Shuihe Village at the same time in three ways does not have much tactical value and significance, but from the analysis of the overall strategic situation, there is a lot of article in this. A few days ago, the Japanese army only sent a squadron of troops to attack and attack the village of Shushuihe on a rotational basis of seven days, looking for an opportunity to encircle and annihilate our supplementary regiment, but the Japanese army did not achieve much success. The devil's three-pronged offensive this afternoon should be a strategic test to test the operational response of our troops in these three directions and the ability of our troops in positional defensive warfare, as well as the contact and coordination between our troops in these three places. Regiment commander, let's put it simply, the devil just wants to find out the details of our army and prepare for greater strategic military operations in the future. ”

"Well, that makes sense. Dagang, do you think that the Japanese army's military action this time is different from the past, is it a tactical adjustment or a strategic change? ”

"Well—I'm thinking about it, the little devil is not only an adjustment in tactics, but also a change in the overall situation and strategy related to the military situation in the Hebei border region."

"Well, that's how it should be. Otherwise, the devil wouldn't do it. You go on to say. ”

"Yes. The Japanese army in the county seat of Lin'an County did not move, and did not send a single soldier, which was different from usual and somewhat strange. A few days ago, the devils attacked and harassed Shuihe Village, and our supplementary regiment was mainly based on the Japanese troops in the county seat of Lin'an County, and the Japanese troops stationed in a brigade in Lin'an Town only sent a small force to cooperate with the flank cover, but this time it fell around. Commander, there must be an article in this change. ”

"yes, I'm thinking about that, too. Dagang, tell me about your analysis and judgment. ”

"Hey. What kind of logic is it that the Japanese army was dispatched to attack our army in Lin'an Town, but the Japanese army in the county seat of Lin'an County did not move and sat idly by? Isn't this a gift for nothing? ”

"Huh? You want to be beautiful. Deputy Head Han, will Eiichi Nakagawa give us a gift for nothing? Don't even think about it. Yu Genshan took out a cigarette and handed it to Han Dagang.

Han Dagang took the cigarette and lit it, took a sharp puff, highlighted the smoke, and continued:

"Hey! Captain, your puff of smoke really works, I'm here for inspiration, why didn't you give it to me earlier? ”

"Less nonsense, I'll give you this one. Let's get down to business. ”

"Of course Eiichi Nakagawa won't give us gifts for nothing, here's the problem. Although it was a failure, it was able to get a sense of the current preparedness and combat effectiveness of our army, and this was the real purpose of Nakagawa Eiichi in launching this military operation at the expense of failure. ”

"Humph! The arrogant Eiichi Nakagawa will not be willing to fail. I estimate that later he may have a larger military operation. ”

"That's right. Commander, not possibly, but definitely. Nakagawa Eiichi will send more than double or double the number of troops, and the main force of the Japanese army from the county seat of Lin'an County will come to attack Shuihe Village again, once again test and confirm the strength of our army, so as to finally complete his strategic deployment. ”

"Well, that's a possibility. Deputy Head Han, then how should we prevent and deal with it and completely defeat the little devils who attack again? ”

"Commander, give Gen'er another cigarette, and I can figure out how to deal with it."

"Hey? Are you really too greedy to make inches and inches? Dagang, this is the last one, don't ask for it again, don't be so useless. Say it. ”

"Hey. Commander, you don't want to give it to me again, I don't believe you can try. Han Dagang said while smoking: "Regiment commander, first, strengthen the defensive strength of our army's main position. Second, send out the 6th Company of the 2nd Battalion, which has the strongest combat effectiveness in the whole regiment, to scatter flowers and sparrows to forage for food......"

"Wait, wait. Deputy Head Han, tell me clearly, what's going on with the girls scattering flowers and sparrows foraging for food this day? ”

Han Dagang explained in detail to Yu Genshan the tactical tactics of the Heavenly Maiden scattering flowers, sparrow foraging, and positional warfare that closely and skillfully cooperate with each other, and that we must not stubbornly defend our positions, but should change from passive to active, and combine positional warfare with movement warfare, guerrilla warfare, and sparrow warfare to create favorable fighters and destroy the Japanese army to the greatest extent. Yu Genshan listened to it and agreed very much.

"Dagang, let's go! Immediately return to the regiment headquarters for a meeting and deployment. Yu Genshan urged.

Yu Genshan and Han Dagang turned around and walked briskly towards the regimental headquarters of Shuihe Village.

The restaurant was full of laughter and joy. Francis walked into the restaurant with a sad face and a heavy heart. As soon as he sat down, he stood up again, walked quickly out of the dining room and into the Moon Tower, went up to the second floor and returned to his bedroom, sat down at the desk and wrote another note.

The county seat of Lin'an County. Ding's compound, the headquarters of the Japanese army. Front yard east room war room.

Eiichi Nakagawa stood in front of the map, pointing and pointing out the detailed and specific deployment of the battle plan, and the conference table was lined with Japanese officers. Nakagawa once again emphasized the role and significance of this military operation and its great impact on the future war situation, especially on the overall strategic revision of the Greater East Asian Holy War. The atmosphere in the war room was unusually solemn and grim.

Hirochi Takagi walked quickly into the war room, walked to Eiichi Nakagawa's side, stood up and saluted, and handed Eiichi Nakagawa a letter with both hands.

"Where's the letter?" Eiichi Nakagawa asked, looking at Hirochi Takagi.

"I don't know. The sender only said that it was urgent information, and that it must be handed over to the Wing Commander immediately. And then it was gone. Hirotomo Takagi, who already knew the details of the information, replied.

Nakagawa Eiichi took out the letter and read it carefully and smiled with satisfaction, he held up the letter and shook it to his subordinate officers, and said smugly and confidently:

"Well, that's good. It was this letter that I was waiting for, and the last bit of doubt and scruple was gone. I would like to leave it to you for this military operation. Nakagawa Eiichi bowed his head and bowed.

"Hey!" All the officers stood at the same time and replied in unison, bowing their heads.
