Chapter 147: Blocked
"Lao Gou and Tong Kai assisted the Tang soldiers in guarding the fortifications. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Chen Fei said.
"Understood, understood." The two said at the same time.
After a while, the chief of staff and Commander Huang came in.
"Brigade commander, the route of the march is basically determined, but the road conditions on the way are unknown, and there are sneak attacks by devil planes, and you have to decide in the end." The chief of staff said.
Chen Fei nodded and said, "How many shells does Commander Huang prepare?" How many vehicles? ”
"Five thousand rounds, as for the car, you need 38." Huang Tuan said.
"Can the rest of the cars fit a regiment?" Chen Fei said.
"It's okay to squeeze." Huang Tuan said.
Chen Fei thought about it, and he couldn't afford to send so many cars this time, and there was no place to replenish the burden, and after he saw so many trucks being targeted by devils during the Battle of Songhu, he bombed a whole 270 large trucks in one round, and they were scrapped in an instant.
"Regiment Commander, you won't use all the trucks, this speed is up, and this oil is a little less." Head Huang said worriedly.
"Damn, this heavy artillery regiment is good, but the logistics are too troublesome." Zhao Liudao.
"Although Commander Zhao has troublesome logistics, as soon as the heavy artillery fires, you will know that it is worth the money." The chief of staff was a little excited, after all, the worship of firepower came out of West Point.
"How many kilometers are we from here to Changsha? How much time does it take? Chen Fei said.
"It's about 500 kilometers, and it takes four days and four nights for everything to go well." The chief of staff said.
"Isn't that much faster than we could walk?" Zhao Liudao.
"There are a lot of roads that I don't know if they can withstand the pressure of trucks and heavy artillery, plus there are many bridges that need to be reinforced, and it depends on luck that the speed will come up." The chief of staff said.
"Report!" Liu Xiaomei came in and said.
"What's the matter?" Chen Fei said.
"Chief Xue of the Ninth War Zone, should I answer it?" Liu Xiaomei said.
"Damn, I'm here so soon, take it!" Chen Fei said.
Liu Xiaomei picked up the phone and told the other party that she could talk to Brigade Commander Chen, so she handed the microphone to Chen Fei.
"Hey, Chief Xue?" Chen Fei said loudly.
"Yes, Brigadier Chen." Xue Yue replied.
"Is there something wrong with the sir?" Chen Fei said deliberately.
"Did Brigade Commander Chen receive an order from the Military Commission to bring a heavy artillery battalion to support our Ninth Theater?" Xue Yue said.
"Yes, sir, we are arranging the marching route, after all, these guys are too big and heavy, and there are many shells, we have no air superiority, and it is easy to be targeted." Chen Fei explained.
"Oh, I know Brigade Commander Chen's difficulties, but we are also in a hurry here, I hope my brother can help my brother, I am grateful." Xue Yue said.
Chen Fei was stunned, even the elder brother and brother came out, this war should be very urgent.
"Chief Xue rest assured, Chen will go all out and guarantee to rush to Changsha City within five days." Chen Fei gritted his teeth and reassured.
When Xue Yue heard this, he was immediately overjoyed and said, "Okay, wait for the arrival of the elder brother." After that, he hung up.
Chen Fei also put down the phone and said with a smile: "Artillery battalion? Huang Tuanchang Changsha doesn't know how many doors to run, right? ”
"I shouldn't know that the Military Commission's order was to say that the heavy artillery battalion would support, but not how many artillery pieces there were." Huang Tuan said.
"Okay, then support eight heavy guns, 5,000 shells, and 38 trucks as planned." Chen Fei said.
"Yes, yes!" The chief of staff and Commander Huang replied.
"Zhao Liu, you set off tomorrow morning to fight the front line for the heavy artillery, and after Liu Meng's pad, the engineer battalion and the heavy artillery will act together." Chen Fei said.
Yes, yes!" Zhao Liu and Liu Meng said.
"Oh, by the way, Commander Huang, your guard battalion will stay first, and replace Zhao Liu's first battalion." Chen Fei said.
Commander Huang was shocked and said, "The brigade commander doesn't believe in the guard battalion. ”
"It's not that I don't believe it, or I don't know the roots, I don't know how much combat power they have, and if something goes wrong at that time, it's not you and I who are not responsible." Chen Fei explained.
"Yes, since you have arrived at the Independent Brigade, everything will listen to the brigade commander." Huang Tuan said.
Chen Fei nodded and said to Tang Bing: "Train the guard battalion well, this is the guardian of the heavy artillery regiment." ”
As soon as Tang Bing heard this, he immediately understood that Chen Fei was going to break up and reorganize, and immediately said, "Yes!" ”
Chen Fei looked at his watch, it was almost 12 o'clock, and said, "It's all gone!" I'm going to act tomorrow, so take a break tonight. ”
"Yes," the crowd replied loudly.
The next morning, the chief of staff and Zhao Liu led the troops to set off first. Along the way, they kept leaving marks for the convoy that had to move at night to point in the direction.
As soon as it was dark, the heavy artillery convoy set off, with one cannon and eight soldiers. That's all treasures, Chen Fei told the soldiers of the first battalion that they must protect the artillery brothers, that is a technical soldier, and it is not easy for the country to train an artilleryman. The commander of the first battalion immediately promised that he would never let the artillery brothers suffer any grievances, and as for the artillery, if it wasn't for the devil using planes to blow up, he really didn't want to destroy it. And Chen Fei took Liu Mengtuan to follow.
In fact, the roads in China are truck-friendly, but they are all dirt, but there are a few small bridges that need to be rebuilt by the engineer battalion.
The march route arranged by the chief of staff and Commander Huang was Yichang, Yidu, Songzi, Jinmen, Changde, Yiyang and then Changsha, and if it went well, it would be enough to reach Changsha in four days.
Chen Fei also carefully studied the marching route, and also thought that this was the best, but when entering Changde City, Hunan, the soldiers were still required to be on high alert, although Changde City is the throat of Sichuan and Guizhou, the gateway of Yunnan and Guizhou, and is heavily guarded, but this is also a tributary of Dongting Lake, in case the devil arranges a small force to sneak attack, it will really be caught off guard.
After two days of rapid marching, the troops finally arrived in Changde, and the two divisions of Sichuan and Guizhou defending Changde were all local troops, and some of them did not even have uniform uniforms.
The murderous Chen Fei Brigade made the garrison retreat one after another, and Chen Fei's Brigade did not enter Changde, and hurriedly marched towards Changsha.
"Report!" A communications soldier came over to Chen Fei and said.
"Say!" Chen Fei said.
"Brigade commander, you can't get through the front, yesterday the devils carried out a large-scale bombing of Changde and dropped bacteriological bombs, and the front was blocked." Signal Soldier Road.
"Well, let Captain Huang find cover and hide." Chen Fei said.
"Yes!" The communication reply was immediately back to report.
Damn, what can I do about this, Chen Fei looked at his watch while thinking, it will be dawn in another hour.
"Liu Meng, let's go up and set up a defensive line around the artillery regiment, and wait for the chief of staff to find the way." Chen Fei said.
Chen Fei led Liu Meng's regiment to join the artillery regiment, and the chief of staff and Zhao Liu came over.
"What's up ahead?" Chen Fei said.
"I can't get through the front, the devil has thrown bacteria in the front, and a division in Longyun, Yunnan Province is setting fire to sterilize it with high temperature." The chief of staff said.
"Damn, devils don't need poison everywhere, what should I do? Let's take a detour. Chen Fei said.
The chief of staff scratched his scalp and said: "There is no way to look at the map, but I am looking for a way from the locals." ”
"I have to wait." Chen Fei said.
The heavy artillery regiment and 38 trucks drove into the woods, Liu Meng commanded the 2nd regiment to start arranging, and an hour later several scouts of the 6th Zhao Regiment brought back eight locals, two of whom were drivers who specialized in transporting goods to Changsha.
"We're going to support Changsha, now the road ahead is closed, you also see that we are a big truck, you see, is there any other way to go?" Zhao Liudao.
Several people scratched their scalps and looked at the big truck.
"Sir, how can such a big car find a second way to go, there is no road, only the road ahead." A common man.
"Think about it again, the Changsha front line is still waiting for us to support, this is a major matter of the family and the country." Chen Fei said.
"If you don't use big trucks, the troops will cross, then there will be many roads." A mountain road.
"No, fellow, the trucks are all ammunition, otherwise what else would we support~" Chen Fei said.
"That's all there is to it, no way." A coachman said.
Chen Fei and the others looked at each other.
"Just thank you." Chen Fei said.
Zhao Liuyi waved his hand, and a company commander came over and prepared to send the eight people away.
At this time, an Orion said: "Sir, there is a road, not far in front of the Xiuxiang River, you can bypass the disaster area in front." ”
"Really?" Chen Fei said happily.
"But to cross the Xiuxiang River, you have to build a bridge to cross the river." Orion Road.
"Engineer battalion commander, engineer battalion commander." Chen Fei said.
The engineer battalion commander, who was listening to the side, immediately replied: "Brigade commander, here!" ”
"You take him to see it right away, and Zhao Liu will send scouts to scout together." Chen Fei said.
"Yes! Be! The two of them replied and immediately went to arrange for departure.
"Report!" The correspondent of the Independent Regiment came over and said.
"Speak!" Chen Fei said.
"Brigade Commander, Commander Xue of the Ninth War Zone sent an urgent telegram asking where we were?" The correspondent said.
"Call back, we arrived in Changde, but the road ahead was blocked due to the devil throwing bacteriological bombs, and we are looking for another road." Chen Fei said.
"Yes!" The correspondent replied that he would arrange it immediately.
Mechanization, damn, mechanization in China I don't know if it will be until the Year of the Monkey, at least this road can make mechanized machinery not work, Chen Fei scolded secretly.
Two hours later, the commander of the engineer battalion ran over and said: "Brigade commander, the Xiuxiang River in front of you can't be crossed at all, it is all made of bamboo, if we build it ourselves, it will take at least 5 days for the engineer battalion alone." ”
"5 days, this~this~ How is this possible, Changsha will be breached in another 5 days, damn!" Chen Fei said.
"Brigade commander, we don't have so many tools to cut wood, it will take two or three days to cut down trees alone." The commander of the engineer battalion said.
"!" Chen Fei couldn't think of a good way for a while, so he could only swear.
"Sir!" Orion came over.
"Fellow, thank you, Zhao Liu gave him a piece of ocean." Chen Fei said.
"No, no, no, sir, I'm not here to ask for money, I mean we all have machetes in Changde, and if the whole city is dispatched, it won't take a day to put the wood for you by the river." Orion Road.
"Ah, yes!" Chen Fei patted his head and said.
"Brigade commander, I'll go to the city and discuss it with the garrison and the mayor." The chief of staff came over and said.
"Okay, go and come back quickly!" Chen Fei said.
At this time, the four pathfinder scouts also came quickly.
"Brigade commander, after crossing the Xiuxiang River, you can go straight to Yiyang, I estimate that it won't take one night to rush to Changsha City." Scout said.
"Okay, that's the good news I'm waiting for." Chen Fei said happily again.
Chen Fei thought to himself that it would be up to the chief of staff now.
"Report!" The correspondent ran over again.
"Speak!" Chen Fei said.
"Brigade commander, Chief Xue of the Ninth War Zone sent an urgent telegram, asking us to do everything possible to support Changsha, all fronts are shrinking, and we are preparing for a decisive battle outside Changsha." The correspondent said.
"Well, call back, understand?" Chen Fei said.
"Yes!" The correspondent replied that he would immediately go to send the report.
Chen Fei was also anxious, how important this heavy artillery was to the Chinese army, and how many soldiers could be sacrificed.
"Buzz~"
"Enemy planes! Take cover! Zhao Liuda shouted.
I saw eight devil planes rushing towards Changde City, and after a while, a huge explosion sounded, and for a while, smoke rose from the sky in Changde City.
"Damn, this bomb doesn't make people live." Liu Meng gritted his teeth and said.
The devil plane swaggered and threw bombs over Changde, as if it were an exercise.
"Hey, I really can't fight back at all." Zhao Liudao.
"One day I'll double it back to them." Chen Fei gritted his teeth and said.
I don't know what happened to the chief of staff.
