"Report!" He Wenbin came in and said. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Well, the battle plan is out?" Chen Fei said.

"Yes, division commander, I carefully studied the Sato Brigade, the main force of the devil between Xinyang and Wuhan in the southern section of the Pinghan Line, this Sato is a master of tactics・・・・・・"

As soon as He Wenbin said half of it, he was blocked by Chen Fei with his hand.

"We have fought against this Sato, and in Matsuki Village, it is indeed good tactical literacy." Chen Fei said.

"However, at that time, Taro Sato's troops rushed to support, so they lacked heavy equipment and were surrounded by us, but they still let him escape, and now if you want to attack, you have to use your brains more." Chen Fei said.

"Yes!" He Wenbin spread out a map as he spoke.

"This is Xinghe Town, here is the headquarters of the Sato Brigade, next to it are three wings, these three wings are not stationed in villages and towns but open up their own garrisons, and the brigade is in a diamond shape, which can support each other, and there are two armored squadrons in the middle, a cavalry brigade, with a total strength of about 11,000, I am going to attack the headquarters first, let the three wings come to support, and our heavy artillery can destroy them one by one." He Wenbin said.

"Oh, you have the idea of hitting heavy artillery, but the problem is that it is too difficult for the heavy artillery to move forward." Chen Fei said.

"But with heavy artillery support, it is crucial to take out the Sato brigade." He Wenbin said.

"Heavy artillery can be dispatched, after all, there is heavy artillery to guarantee victory, but air defense is very important, so many vehicles must be coordinated and concealed." Chen Fei said.

"As long as we keep learning in actual combat, we can make the heavy artillery regiment more flexible and stronger." He Wenbin said.

"Damn, it's better to say than to sing, one less car, see if I don't peel you alive." Chen Fei scolded with a smile.

He Wenbin stuck out his tongue, patted his chest and said, "Teacher, don't worry!" ”

Chen Fei looked at the map and said, "Your trick is okay to encircle the point and send reinforcements, but you still need to improve many details." “

He Wenbin took out another chart of the attack time and location of each regiment, Chen Fei took it and looked at it, "How did you think of letting Tong Kai block the armored squadron?" “

"Because Tong Kai has studied armored vehicles in the six regiments." He Wenbin said.

"Well, but this time must not be set by you, this is a unified action of the entire theater of operations, it is estimated that General Li Zongren will hold a pre-war meeting for us before the operation to designate the target again." Chen Fei said.

"Yes, understood!" He Wenbin said.

"This winter attack will definitely cause some casualties to the devils and surprise the devils, but on the contrary, the devils' attack on Yichang may be carried out faster, and you must also be prepared." Chen Fei said.

He Wenbin thought about Chen Fei's words carefully and immediately understood.

"Your gaze is indeed farther than ordinary people, and you even think of next year's war, and I have nothing to say to admire." He Wenbin said.

"Don't pat yourself on the back, put down the information, I'll take a look, you go." Chen Fei said.

He Wenbin put down the information, saluted Chen Fei and left.

Chen Fei can still find problems from the report, he used a red pen to draw circles to annotate, after all, more than 10,000 people are fighting, and the target is more than 10,000 people, it is understandable that there are problems in the plan, and more problems will occur in the battle.

Two days later, November 30.

"Report!" Wang Fang came in and said.

"Something?" Chen Fei said.

"A telegram came from the telecommunications office, saying that tomorrow Commander Li, General Zhang Zizhong, commander of the Jiang Defense Army, chief of staff and others of the 5th Theater will come to our fortification area for a pre-war meeting and ask our division to do a good job of guarding the work." Wang Fang said.

"Well, notify the Chief of Staff and Brigade Commander Tang, as well as the old steamed buns of the Intelligence Department and notify the division's first-level combat readiness." Chen Fei said.

"Yes!" Wang Fang replied and immediately went to inform him.

The independent division began to be fully combat-ready.

On the second day, the Xishan fortifications were three steps and one post, and four steps and one sentry, and there were no vehicles driving into the fortification area in the evening.

Chen Fei opened a meeting place in the basement and arranged for the commanders to be seated, and dozens of female medical staff in the medical center were temporarily arranged as waiters to serve tea and water for everyone.

"Welcome, Chief Lee." Chen Fei saw Chief Li Zongren and said.

"Chen Fei, I'm sorry for you this time." Chief Li said.

"You're welcome, Chief Li, this is what we should do." Chen Fei said.

Chief Li nodded, and entered the venue accompanied by Chen Fei.

"Stand up!" A Chief Li guard shouted.

The crowd stood up.

"Sit down!" Chief Li said.

The people sat down and listened to the commander's lecture.

Commander Li briefly talked about the recent battles and the upcoming winter offensive, and arranged a good direction for the targets of the various troops to attack.

"Guys, what else would you like to add?" Chief Li said.

The commander of the unit immediately began to ask Commander Li for food and ammunition. Chen Fei is funny and helpless when he thinks about it, this is very realistic. However, Chief Li still has some resources in his hands, and he is also ready to send a shot to all troops when he comes to the meeting.

"Senior Chen, didn't you ask for it? What is your hardest goal? Chief Li said.

Chen Fei stood up and said, "No, sir, I will definitely do my best to complete the task." “

Chief Li nodded and said, "But I have to arrange some sources of troops for you, two thousand of our soldiers in Guangxi, who were scattered during the battle of Zaoyi, they are a local division, and there are more than 2,000 people left in one and a half brigades to block the devils, I hope that Division Commander Chen will arrange it, and I can rest assured that you are an independent division." ”

"Thank you, sir, but I may break them up and rearrange them~~~" Chen Fei said.

Chief Li smiled: "I still say the same thing, I am relieved to be here." ”

Chen Fei didn't understand why Li Zongren would give him so many soldiers, the Guangxi soldiers were the best soldiers in China, since the Ming Dynasty, it was said that the Guangxi wolf soldiers were invincible in the world, not to mention the veterans who had fought against the devils.

"Then thank you, sir." Chen Fei said again.

Although the commanders from all walks of life were very envious of Chen Fei, Chen Fei undertook the heaviest attack mission, and everyone had nothing to say.

The battle meeting ended before ten o'clock, and when Chen Fei sent Commander Li away, Commander Li said to Chen Fei meaningfully: "If the war is tight, I hope Chen Fei's heavy artillery can support it." ”

Chen Fei agreed in one bite, this should be the price of two thousand veterans.

The next day, 2,000 Guangxi veterans lined up in a neat line to the Xishan fortifications. Chen Fei came out and was taken aback, these soldiers were in rags, their faces were yellow and thin, and most of them didn't even have straw sandals.

"Chief of Staff He, let these Guangxi soldiers wash up, let Lao Zhangtou prepare some food, let them eat first, and tell Lao Zhangtou that everyone must have clothes, cloth shoes, damn, it's really difficult for these Guangxi soldiers on such a cold day." Chen Fei said.

"Yes, I'll arrange it right away." Chief of Staff He replied and hurried to the quartermaster's office.

Chen Fei shook his head, this kind of thing is not arranged by the adjutant, and he has to go in person, which is too much for the chief of staff.

"Wang Liang, inform the Guangxi soldiers assigned to each regiment to give them a little more care, these veterans need a process of adaptation to an unfamiliar environment." Chen Fei said to Wang Liang.

"Yes! I'll go and inform right away. Wang Liang replied.

In an independent division, the relationship between soldiers and between soldiers and officers is very harmonious, after all, on the battlefield, the only people who can be trusted are the comrades-in-arms around them.

At the beginning of December, the independent division began to move to Xinghe Town, and the intelligence office and teaching team of Lao Mantou remained in the Xishan fortifications.

By the 7th, Tang Bing's 2nd Brigade had reached the outskirts of Xinghe Town, while the 1st Brigade and directly subordinate troops led by Chen Fei went out day and night, arriving one day later than Tang Bing.

By the 9th, the units had completed the state of attack on Sato's brigade.

On the 7th, Taro Sato learned that the Chongqing army was approaching him in concealment, and he immediately reacted by sending scout troops to disperse and reconnoitre, and by the 9th, even Okamura Ninji knew that the 5th Theater was going to attack him.

The changes on the battlefield were very fast, and Sato immediately ordered all troops to move closer to Xinghe Town to prevent them from being broken by the Chongqing army.

The battle started at three o'clock in the morning on the 10th, Chen Fei's regiments found that the devils began to move closer to Xinghe Town, and they all reported the movements to Chen Fei, Chen Fei immediately reported the battle situation to Chief Li, and asked to act in advance, Chief Li weighed and did not agree with Chen Fei's early action, Chen Fei received an order that he could not act in advance, and immediately issued an order to each regiment to let the devils enter Xinghe Town, preparing to fight a tough battle with the devils in Xinghe Town.

Chen Fei took the telescope and looked at Xinghe Town in front of him, it was pitch black, and he couldn't see clearly.

"Report to the Divisional Commander! The three wings of the devils, two armored squadrons and a cavalry brigade all entered Xinghe Town. Chief of Staff He ran over.

Chen Fei nodded and said, "How many residents are there in this town?" ”

"About 20,000 people, and it's a big town." He Chief of Staff hits.

"Well, how many tanks does that devil's armored squadron have?" Chen Fei said.

"According to the commander of the Second Regiment, Liu Meng, what he saw were thirty-five Type 97 tanks and nearly 50 trucks." Chief of Staff He said.

"With so many tanks, I really can't attack Xinghe Town without heavy artillery." Chen Fei said.

"Division commander, all units have formed an encirclement of Xinghe Town, but we don't know anything about the terrain inside Xinghe Town." Chief of Staff He said.

"Yes, the devil has been here for a while, it's impossible not to arrange it, this battle is not easy to fight, you have to command the artillery battalion well, the old gun there four 92 infantry guns should be able to play a role." Chen Fei said.

Chen Fei looked at his watch as he spoke: "It's time for the general attack soon, tell Tang Bing to be careful, don't attack too fiercely, control the rhythm, advance and retreat in an orderly manner, by the way, did the reconnaissance battalion send out?" ”

"Sent out, the ten miles near the reconnaissance camp are clearly felt, and if there is a devil's support, you can't escape the eyes of the watermelon." He Wenbin said.

Chen Fei nodded and said, "Okay, you go to Tang Bing, bring the artillery battalion with you, and support at any time." ”

"Yes!" He Wenbin replied and left.

Chen Fei didn't expect the Tang Soldiers Brigade to capture the outskirts of Xinghe Town in one fell swoop, but he just wanted to find some devils' weaknesses from them to facilitate the next action, and the other was to hope that the people in the town could hide well and not be killed or injured by stray bullets or artillery strikes.

Chen Fei took out a cigarette, Wang Liang came over to help him light it, Chen Fei looked at Lieutenant Wang with his spare eyes, only to see that her face was flushed and excited, Chen Fei took a puff of cigarette and smiled: "Lieutenant Wang, you are very excited?" ”

"Ah~oh! Division commander, the general offensive is about to begin, right? Wang Fang said.

"Relax! Don't be so nervous! Chen Fei said.

"Okay, okay, Commander." Wang Fang said.

"Division commander, the lieutenant is on the battlefield for the first time, and he will get used to it a few more times in the future." Next to the Sanmao Road.

"Yes, yes." Wang Fang said embarrassedly.

Several guards laughed.

Chen Fei looked at his watch at three o'clock.

"Wang Liang, notify the Second Brigade to start." Chen Fei said.

"Yes!" Wang Liang picked up the phone and connected to the Second Brigade and immediately said, "Start attacking!" ”

There was no earth-shattering cannonade, no fierce gunfire, the three regiments of the Tang Brigade ran towards Xinghe Town from three directions, and the reason why there were no attacking troops behind Xinghe Town was because there was a river, and there were no city walls on the periphery of Xinghe Town, only a few trenches built by devils.

Chen Fei looked at the distance, the black pressure was overwhelming, and the soldiers ran forward. Five hundred meters, four hundred meters, three hundred meters, two hundred meters, "Bang! A gunshot broke the night.

"Da Da Da Da~" The devil found the attacking troops and began to organize fire strikes, Taro Sato woke up from his sleep and heard the fierce gunshots, he immediately got dressed and walked out of the bedroom, the fierce gunshots made him a lot easier, otherwise where is such a large number of Chongqing troops, what is the purpose, it is a headache for him.

"Sir, you are here, the Chongqing army is attacking me from three directions, and the strength of one regiment is estimated in each direction." When Kojima saw Taro Sato, the chief of staff immediately reported.

"Well, the momentum of the enemy's attack is very strong, three regiments ~~~" Sato Michi.

"Sir, do you want to carry out an artillery bombardment?" Kojima Road.

"Wait, it's too dark, and the shelling won't be effective, but will expose the number of artillery." Sato Road.

"Hey!" Kojima's chief of staff replied.

"Tell the regiments to disperse and attack slowly, we have time." Tang Bing said to the little fox beside him.

"Yes!" The little fox replied and immediately arranged for the correspondent to report to the group.

Tang Bing wanted to maintain this offensive until dawn, and then asked the artillery battalion to help pull out the heavy firepower of the devils one by one.

"How's it going? I brought the artillery battalion. Chief of Staff He ran over and said.

"Oh, it's attacking now, the devil is also a veteran, and many of the firepower points are unknown, wait, wait until dawn." Tang Bing said.

"Good!" Chief of Staff He picked up the binoculars as he spoke, looking at the battle ahead, and after a while, Chief of Staff He said: "Brigade Commander Tang, the periphery of Xinghe Town is not very large, will these three regiments go up, will there be too many?" “

Tang Bing smiled and said: "I withdrew as soon as it dawned, and now it's dark, and the devils can't figure out the situation, and the devils' shelling will come as soon as the morning dawns." ”

Chief of Staff He nodded.

"After a while, I will give you the target positions of the devils and heavy firepower that each regiment wants to clear, and clear them one by one." Tang Bing said.

"Okay." Chief of Staff He said.

A correspondent from Chen Fei's temporary headquarters handed over a telegram to Wang Fang.

"Divisional commander, telegram!" Wang Fang said.

"Read!" Chen Fei said.

"Did your attack go well? 5 Theater Commander's Department. Wang Fang said.

Chen Fei thought for a while and said, "Call back: Attacking!" ”

"Yes!" Wang Fang replied and immediately went to arrange a call back.

Chen Fei looked at the red ballistics flying in the sky in the distance, and thought to himself, although there was no need to sweep the entire nearby Pinghan Line devils, as long as he eliminated the Sato Brigade, this Star River Town was not so easy to deal with.
