Chapter 428: The road is narrow

Pyongyang City, where the winter is obviously much colder than Lushun, last night of heavy snow, covered the streets and alleys of Pyongyang City with a thick layer of white winter clothes.

From time to time on the streets, a group of soldiers in gray uniforms and steel helmets trotted through the city with brand-new Mauser rifles in their hands.

Judging from their armbands, it is still written on the 1st Corps.

Not far from the eastern part of Pyongyang, there is a blue-red three-story building, and the people around Pyongyang know that this is the headquarters of the Liaodong Army stationed in the DPRK's First Corps.

From a distance, you can see two soldiers with rifles in their hands standing motionless in front of the gate, and although the cold and wind are biting, they are still motionless.

There was a sound of horses' hooves, and the surrounding people suddenly flashed to the side, they hated clearly, in Pyongyang City, to be able to dispatch so many horses' hooves at once, it was either the troops or the Liaodong Army.

Sure enough, when they flashed to the side, the people of Pyongyang saw that an officer in his sixties was wearing a green cloak with three gold stars shining on his collar, and he was escorted by a group of soldiers, and he was speeding towards the headquarters of the First Corps.

Commander Ding, the people of Pyongyang know that there is only one person who can have three gold stars in Pyongyang, Ding Ruchang.

"yes, where did the Commander go?" A North Korean man wearing a straw hat poked a vendor in his thirties who was setting up a stall next to him.

"You don't know, these days, the Japanese have increased their forces in the front, and the commander just went to inspect and came back last night."

"Phew, Japanese, with our Commander Ding here, what kind of waves can the Japanese make."

"Yes, yes, yes, with Liu Dashuai and Commander Ding, we in Pyongyang and North Korea are safe." The people on one side also chimed in.

In the headquarters of the First Corps, the charcoal fire in the war room had already baked the room very warm, and with a creak, Ding Ruchang, who was wearing a general's uniform and a steel helmet on his head, took off his cloak and handed it to the guards next to him, and then turned around and picked up a pen from the table next to him and walked to the map to sketch.

Ding Ruchang was followed by officers who were good at fighting, and they soon saw from the map that the strength of about one wing of the Japanese army had advanced five kilometers, which was one kilometer away from their forward positions.

Okay, the Japanese are becoming more and more presumptuous, Qin Liang next to him clenched his fists and stared fiercely at the map that Ding Ruchang was drawing now.

Smack, seeing Ding Ruchang put down the pen in his hand, Qin Liang immediately stepped forward: "Commander, the Japanese are too bullies, they are so close to us, let's fight, anyway, they have already declared war with Japan." Qin Liang felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, since he declared war on Japan, he had never received any orders.

Hey, sighing helplessly, Ding Ruchang returned to his position, and looked up at Qin Liang, who was quite dissatisfied, how could he not want to kill this wing, but now the marshal does not have any orders at all, so how can he give orders.

"Commander" Qin Liang stepped forward again.

"Don't say it, I can't give orders without the order of the commander." Ding Ruchang waved his hand, he was really worried that he couldn't stand Qin Liang's emotional influence.

"Report, Liaodong Emergency." An intelligence department quickly ran over and handed over the telegram in his hand.

As soon as he heard the telegram from Liaodong, Ding Ruchang immediately took the telegram from the Ministry of Intelligence.

After taking a closer look, Ding Ruchang's sad old face suddenly laughed.

This laughter made Qin Liang on the side touch his head like a monk, he didn't understand, at this time, Ding Ruchang could still laugh.

"Good, good. Liaodong has a letter. Ding Ruchang patted his thigh. Suddenly he got up from his chair.

"Let Zhou Ruihua come to see me immediately." Ding Ruchang's voice shook the entire war department at once.

Zhou Ruihua, the commander of the first division of the First Corps, turned out to be a deputy general of the Sheng Army, after the Sheng Army surrendered to Liu Jun, Zhou Ruihua was named to enter the Lushun Military Academy in Liaodong for two years because of the fierce battle in Liaoyang, and was assigned to the First Corps.

"Commander, is it a big handsome" Looking at Ding Ruchang's expression, Qin Liang estimated that Liaodong had given an order.

"Yes." With a sigh of gratitude, Ding Ruchang nodded: "Dashuai let us act cheaply." ”

Okay, act cheaply, that is, to fight or not, it's all up to you.

"Commander, how about killing this wing?" Qin Liang took a step forward, he hoped that this task could be given to his North Korean Corps.

Nonsense, Ding Ruchang glanced at Qin Liang. If it weren't for the hateful Japanese Wing, how could he have mobilized the First Division and let Zhou Ruihua come over.

Yangshan forward position. In the headquarters of the first regiment of the first division, Zhou Ruihua, who is one meter eight tall, is holding up his hand at this time and looking at the Japanese position one kilometer away in a quiet daze.

At noon today, as soon as I arrived at the corps headquarters, I received an order, that is, to pull out this Japanese wing that was close to my forward position.

In the telescope, the military flag in the distance still reads the Third Wing of the Second Army of the Japanese Army.

This wing can be regarded as the old opponent of the Liaodong Army, Dalian back then. Golden State. Even in the later Dandong Pyongyang Campaign, this third wing fought against the Liaodong Army.

"The road is narrow." Zhou Ruihua put down the binoculars in his hand, returned to the bunker in a few steps, and spread the map onto the ammunition box.

Judging from the map, the terrain occupied by Japan is not very good, and it is also temporarily advanced, you know, you are here, that is deeply rooted, how to say, your first division is here, and it has been stationed for so many years, every grass and tree here, I even the first division knows it clearly, and even where there is a bird's nest, I can know it.

After taking a closer look at the map, Zhou Ruihua had a plan in his heart.

"Command." With a loud shout, the subordinates around him suddenly straightened their waists.

"Order, the artillery regiment must transfer all artillery to the No. 3 position on the opposite side within three hours, the first regiment and the second regiment immediately enter the position, and after the artillery strikes the enemy, it must launch an attack on the enemy within five minutes."

"Understood."

On the Japanese position, An Chunzheng, the current commander of the Third Wing, stood quietly in front of the temporary headquarters, and now he had a bad premonition in his heart.

From two hours ago. He got a piece of information, that is, you have not made any movement these days, and the first Liaodong Army on the other side suddenly began to enter the transfer. Moreover, it has only been two hours, and the artillery that was originally held in the No. 4 position of the Liaodong Army has already been transferred to the No. 3 position.

Looking at it this way, this Liaodong Army is going to attack.

After receiving the order, he asked the intelligence soldiers to rush back to Seoul as quickly as possible, and asked His Excellency the Commander to report the matter here.

"Your Excellency, Wing Commander. Now the Liaodong Army has entered a state of alert, you look at us"

Waving his hand slightly, An Chun knew what his chief of staff was going to say, that is, to put his troops on alert. However, the order he received was to build a position after arriving here, and there could be no friction with the Liaodong Army, if he mobilized troops at this time, it would inevitably anger the Liaodong Army, and once the Liaodong Army was allowed to fire, then he could not afford this responsibility.

"No, we're just waiting to see." After An Chun finished speaking, he walked to the bunker again, raised the telescope in his hand, and carefully observed the situation on the side of the Liaodong Army.
