Strictly speaking, this kind of terrain is not suitable for an offensive battlefield, the area is too narrow for the troops to deploy, the water surface is relatively wide, although the flow of water will be slower, but it will undoubtedly prolong the time of crossing the river, and the time for the troops crossing the river to be exposed to the enemy's guns will also be extended.

The enemy's line of defense was surrounded by high mountains on both sides, which made it easy for the enemy to set up artillery positions, and it was not easy to strike.

In addition, the terrain on the opposite bank is higher than on this side, the power of supporting fire is greatly reduced, and even if the troops cross the river, the attack is in a state of upward attack, which invisibly increases the difficulty, which means that a small number of troops should not try to tear through the enemy's defense.

"Deputy Commander-in-Chief Chu, is there no other place to cross the river if it is so difficult?" Su Canwu said.

Chu Xiqiu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Brother Su, don't you know, although Anze is not big, it is located at the southeast foot of Taiyue Mountain, the mountains in the territory are undulating, the ravines are vertical and horizontal, the terrain is complex, the Qin River runs through the whole territory, the riverbed is bent around the mountains, and the flood deposits on both sides are thick, creating a shelter forest belt that stretches for hundreds of miles, and there are many mountains and valleys, except for this Guanlingdu, I can't find a more suitable place." ”

Su Canwu frowned, he began to understand why Chu Xiqiu's two divisions were blocked by a wing of the Island Army (ignored by the puppet army) on the opposite bank.

"You're saying it turned out to be a ferry?"

"Yes, don't you see that there are still many houses of civilians on the enemy's rear line? This place was very prosperous and lively before, and there used to be many houses and commercial ports on the current position of the little devils, but now they have all been picked up. ”

Su Canwu sighed lightly, it is related to the property and personal safety of the people, napalm cannot be used, it seems that there is really no other way than to attack.

Su Canwu set up the telescope, looked at it carefully, raised his hand and said, "Let's go, go to the front line and have a look." ”

The group went down the mountain along the rugged mountain road, and after ten minutes entered the fortifications, a serpentine trench was like a natural formation, all communication trenches, trenches, anti-artillery holes, and individual bunkers were readily available, and the combination of firepower points was staggered and impeccable.

The group entered the former enemy command post, and Su Canwu stepped onto the observation post and looked out.

I saw that forty or fifty meters ahead was a river about 300 meters wide, and the river beach was full of the corpses of the soldiers of the Jin Sui army, and almost all of them were fragmented, and at first glance they were caused by the enemy's machine gun fire, which showed that the enemy's firepower was very fierce, and the Jin Sui army did pay the price for it.

The water on the beach has been stained red with blood, and there are stranded boats and bamboo rafts everywhere, but without exception, they are all full of holes and almost scattered.

The situation on the other side of the bank is similar, the corpses are all over the river beach of dozens of meters, and from the military uniform, it is almost impossible to see the earthy yellow color belonging to the little devils, even if the soldiers of the Jin Sui army stubbornly and heroically crossed the Qin River, it is difficult to avoid the torrent of bullets to cross the open land of dozens of meters.

Further on, the terrain went all the way up, and with the help of telescopes, you could clearly see the enemy's narrow fortifications, and the muzzles of the guns were faintly visible, except for the curling smoke of gunpowder, there were almost no human figures.

Jumping down from the observation post, Su Canwu said, "Deputy Commander-in-Chief Chu, how is the enemy's support firepower?" ”

Chu Xiqiu said: "There is an artillery brigade, about 20 75 mountain guns, there may be more than a dozen 80mm mortars, the number of 92 infantry guns is relatively large, and it is distributed all over the front, the firepower is obviously strengthened, even light and heavy machine guns are out of the normal equipment of a wing of the island army plus a puppet army division." ”

After Chu Xiqiu finished speaking, he ordered the staff officer to take out two drawings, the first is the enemy's firepower configuration, the mountain-shaped landform jumps on the paper, the distance and height have detailed data, and the firepower points and troop arrangements are also recorded in detail.

The other is the firepower configuration map of the Jin Sui army, which is very targeted, but it can be seen at a glance that although they have an absolute advantage in strength, their firepower is far inferior to that of the little devils.

After collecting the information about the terrain, the width of the Qin River, the depth of the water, the enemy's troop and firepower configuration, etc., Su Canwu already had a rough outline in his heart about how to fight the next battle.

After calling Lei Zhan and Xiaodao to the observation post, and after some pointing and pointing and drawing, Su Canwu said to Chu Xiqiu: "Deputy Commander-in-Chief Chu, can you please select more than 100 soldiers from the army who have good water ability and good individual soldier quality, I want the two of them to lead the team to form two commandos, and open a gap first." ”

Chu Xiqiu frowned and said, "Brother Su, I have already used this method, it is not easy to use, at least half of the team members died in the water, and the remaining half almost all died on the river beach, and the open land of nearly fifty meters on the opposite bank is not so easy to rush over." ”

Su Canwu smiled: "Don't worry, I'm sure I can do it." ”

Chu Xiqiu looked at Su Canwu for a long time and didn't speak, his face was not very good-looking, and he said for a long time: "Actually, you can give orders directly, because you are the commander of this battle." ”

Su Canwu was stunned for a moment, and he could hear that there was obviously emotion in his words, in fact, it was no wonder that changing generals on the battlefield was tantamount to a slap in the face, especially if he was an outsider, he would feel uncomfortable in anyone's heart, and it was not easy for Chu Xiqiu to endure until this time before revealing it slightly.

"Huh!" Su Canwu sneered, stepped forward and whispered: "Brother Chu, although Commander Yan ordered me to command this battle, don't forget, I also have an identity, the former deputy commander-in-chief of the enemy, and you are still the commander-in-chief of the former enemy, so, of course, the commander is still you, I am only responsible for making suggestions, but you can rest assured, if the battle fails, the responsibility lies with me and not with you." ”

Su Canwu is self-aware, with his status and qualifications, I am afraid that he will not be able to command the Jin Sui army, even if the soldiers dare not disobey the order in person, but it is difficult to avoid the disobedience of yin and yang, and it will be too late to hold anyone accountable for the defeat of the battle, so it is more appropriate for Chu Xiqiu to command, firstly, to preserve his face in front of the soldiers, and secondly, to ensure that morale will not be affected.

Chu Xiqiu's face turned red, and he threw a grateful look at Su Canwu, but he didn't say anything, turned around and ordered the adjutant to do what Su Canwu wanted.

Lei Zhan and Xiaodao also followed the adjutant out of the command post, and these more than 100 people still had to undergo some intensive training, and they were not happy to sharpen their guns in battle.

Su Canwu ordered Liu Yuerong to send a telegram directly to Ye Zhaofeng, asking him to send a bomber group to carry out a carpet bombing of the enemy's front line in an hour, and at the same time carry enough smoke bombs, and then arrange for several transport planes to drop a certain number of grenades, grenades and a batch of flamethrowers.
