Hu Zhen asked Chen Zichao, who sent the information: "How many men and horses are there in this Dutch army that is attacking?" What is the composition of the staff? How is the armament? And what about the course of action? ”

Chen Zichao came to report as soon as he received the information, and it was too late to sort out the written information, but Chen Zichao is a very meticulous and meticulous person, and everything that has been dealt with by him can be said to be leakless, hearing Hu Zhen's inquiry, he replied after sorting out his thoughts a little: "Mr. Report, according to the information we have learned, this Dutch colonial army is just a mixed team of Dutch white officers and natives as soldiers, and its heavy weapons are four 47mm field guns and four Gatling 11mm ten-barreled heavy machine guns. The rest of the infantry weapons were infantry single-shot rifles. Their course of action was from Pontianak to the east, to the heart of Borneo. ”

"Just like that, people are going to beat us? Is this still the vanguard of the Dutch? There is a steady stream of bigger and more people coming in the back? Hu Zhen felt a little strange.

"Sir, according to the information intercepted by our sleepers, so far, the Dutch Governor's Office has only sent this group of men, and there is no other information!"

Su Wenzhen, who had been listening quietly from the side, quickly made his judgment: "Sir, this may be because the Dutch Governor's Office of the East Indies Colony does not know our strength, thinking that we are all armed with some primitive tribes, and we can directly defeat us by relying on the troops of this one regiment!" ”

"Oh, it makes sense, but we can't be careless, Chen Zichao, let our lurking personnel keep an eye on it, and if there is any change in the situation, report to the headquarters immediately!"

"Yes, I'll arrange it right away!"

Chen Zichao responded, then saluted and went out to arrange the action. Now, thanks to Chen Zichao's efforts, he has secretly established an intelligence network in the South China Sea and the western Pacific of East Asia with the wireless telegraph network as the contact method; although it cannot be said that every move in all quarters is under control, any major movement in all quarters can be reported to the headquarters of the Huaxia Army as soon as possible.

"Su Wenzhen, you are the chief of the General Staff, tell me, what can we do?"

"Sir, you have often said to us, if people do not offend me, I will not offend people, if people offend me, I will offend people, since the Dutch are coming to fight us, then we will look for fighters on his way to destroy this army!"

"Now that they've come to the door, the Dutchman is dead this time. In fact, if the Dutch don't come, we will have to trouble them sooner or later, otherwise how can we control the whole South Seas, but they will send them to the door first, and we don't have to waste our strength to find them! You told the commanders of each detachment to come to the headquarters for a meeting two hours after receiving the notice to make arrangements for the operation. ”

Just two hours later, when the detachments appeared in the conference room of the headquarters, Hu Zhen had already formulated a detailed battle plan with Su Wenzhen and a group of staff officers.

After listening to the information reported by Su Wenzhen, Liang Kunri's nostrils twitched, and he was the first to shout: "Cut, there are only 2,600 people, and they are all cannons and single-shot rifles that use solid shells, and you don't need the whole army to go up, that is, half of the men and horses of my second detachment will press up, and they will eat him in an hour!" ”

"That's it, such a small person with a few tattered antique weapons dares to come to compete with us, I really want to die! Our detachment went up and killed them with an ambush! Cui Jinfeng responded, he had only been in command of any team for ten days, and he was in a hurry to grab a credit and go back to show the soldiers of the team.

"One of our regiments can also destroy this regiment of Dutch natives!" Jiang Yunfeng and Chen Qishan next to him were also eager to try, intending to snatch the first battle mission of the Huaxia Army against the Dutch for the detachment to perform.

Hu Zhen listened, but was a little unhappy: "Before the war started, you have such an attitude, this is unacceptable, we must not have the idea of underestimating the enemy, this is dangerous for a soldier at any time!" No matter what kind of army the opponent is, we must be cautious in the first battle, and if we win the first battle, we will have a psychological advantage in the following combat operations; But if we lose the first battle, then it will be a big problem, and we will even have a problem of whether we can gain a foothold in Borneo! We can strategically despise the enemy, but we must pay attention to the enemy tactically, we must be cautious in the first battle, we must be cautious in the first battle, remember, we must be cautious in the first battle! ”

"Yes......" Hearing Hu Zhen say three times to "be cautious in the first battle", Liang Kunri and Cui Jinfeng looked at each other, and suddenly didn't dare to follow anymore.

Hu Zhen waved his hand and said: "It's good that everyone understands this point ideologically, and we must remember it at any time in the future, and implement it in all our military combat operations, okay, let's not talk about this issue now." Now, please ask the Chief of Staff of the Soviet Union to announce the battle plan! ”

"The goal of this operation plan is to completely annihilate a regiment of the invading Dutch colonial army, and the planned forces are three, four, five, and special combat teams......

"What? And what about our team......"

"What are we going to do with the second detachment......?"

Hearing that the names of the first and second teams were not mentioned in the battle plan announced by Su Wenzhen, Liang Kunri and Cui Jinfeng shouted in unison, but the voice of a sentence was first high and then low, and when they saw Hu Zhen staring at them at a glance, it turned into a mosquito-like voice.

There was silence.

Su Wenzhen was about to say something, but was blocked by Hu Zhen waving his hand, Hu Zhen said slowly: "In this battle plan, the tasks of the first and second detachments are stipulated as strategic reserves, half of the personnel continue to train, and half of the personnel maintain combat readiness and alertness, guarding the industrial base of Lag Town, monitoring other directions, and watching those natives not let them suddenly make trouble behind our backs!" ”

"But our troops ......"

Liang Kunri and Cui Jinfeng stood up sharply, wanting to argue that the combat effectiveness of their troops was fully qualified for the main force of this battle plan, but they couldn't say it anymore as soon as they opened their mouths.

Hu Zhen waved his hand: "According to our strategic plan, you will have to fight big and small battles in the future, as long as you train the troops well, are you afraid that you will have nothing to do and no credit?" Well, don't fight over the length of the day! Sit down, the meeting will continue. ”

"Yes!" Liang Kunri and Cui Jinfeng had no choice but to sit down.

Looking at the two cadres who were about to rush to the battlefield, Hu Zhen smiled softly: "Next, please ask the Chief of Staff of the Soviet Union to continue to preside over the meeting!" ”

Su Wenzhen asked the two staff officers to open a huge map, pointed to several locations with a whip and said: "According to the battle plan, the specific strategy of this operation is to lure the enemy deep and encircle and annihilate the enemy, and the order of the distribution of troops of our detachments is ......."
