As usual, when he heard the rooster crow, he opened his eyes, and then continued to lie on the marching bed, until the rooster crowed, and then he turned over and sat up.

The room was still so dark that there was no one in sight, and when he heard the sound, Bu Runxian knew that the chief of staff who lived in the same room with him was still asleep, so he put on his pants, and touched his cloth shoes under the bed, and kicked them on his feet, and then got out of bed, picked up his military jacket and the pair of tank boots, and tiptoed to the back of the door, lifted the lantern behind the door, lifted the door curtain, and walked out of the house.

After lighting the lantern outside the door, Gao Runjiao put on the general's shirt, then lifted the lantern and tank boots, and walked towards the brigade headquarters, but there was no figure on the road, and it was not until he approached the brigade headquarters that he heard the sentry's command.

"Password!"

"Iron Armor!"

The department ran back the password, and then walked straight into the brigade headquarters, the first thing I saw was the staff officers who were still on duty, there was nothing to do now, and after staying up all night, those staff officers were a little groggy, sitting at the desk and dozing off, until they saw the lights flashing at the door, they were refreshed.

"Stand upright! Salute".

A staff officer shouted, and the staff officers on duty stood up and saluted Gao Run.

Bu Runshang returned the salute, put the lantern behind a desk behind the door, and said, "You all go down and rest, I'll take over here."

"Yes!"

The staff officers easily extinguished the lanterns on their desks and left the brigade headquarters.

Bu Runxian took out a toothbrush and tooth powder from the drawer of his desk, put them in the basin, and then picked up the tooth jar, walked out of the brigade headquarters with a horse lamp, and fetched a bucket of cold water by the well not far from the door, and completed his personal washing work in less than five minutes.

Walking back to the brigade headquarters, just in time for the change of guard of the sentry, as usual, the soldiers who were laid off did not immediately return to the barracks, but first went to the gang room to order a bowl of noodles for the department, and then brought it into the brigade headquarters and put it on the commander's desk, which was considered to have completed the task.

The ministry Runxian was "panting and snoring" while sucking the noodles, while checking the duty records of the staff officers on the lantern, it seemed to be very calm last night, the former enemy command did not come to order, the army staff did not come to order, only some internal communication records, and it was not a matter of importance, the staff officers had already dealt with it.

After flipping through the duty records, Gao Runxian took a copy of "The Principle of Diesel Engine" from the table and continued to study, and when he finished eating the bowl of noodles, a bright light had appeared in the sky outside the window.

Just sat alone in the brigade headquarters and read a book, until the seven o'clock wake-up horn sounded, Gao Runxian closed the book "Diesel Engine Principle", stood up, straightened his military uniform, tied up his armed belt, changed into the pair of tank boots, and then walked out of the brigade headquarters calmly, stood in front of the brigade department with his hands behind his back, and looked at the school field in the distance.

Soon, the originally quiet barracks quickly became lively, and the soldiers and officers who had completed the internal affairs quickly gathered on the school ground, and at this time, the staff officer who took over also rushed to the brigade headquarters, and after a few words of explanation, he rushed to the school field.

By the time Gao Runxian arrived at the school ground, the morning drills of the officers and soldiers had already begun, and following the orders of the officer on duty, thousands of armored soldiers were neatly doing sensational gymnastics, and everyone was dressed neatly like Gao Runxian, and they all wore the boat-shaped soft hat like Gao Runxian.

The boat-shaped soft hat represents the elite troops, and this armored unit is the elite unit, and Gao Runjiao is the supreme commander of the elite unit of the Wehrmacht.

Looking back on the year, starting from a low-level officer of the Hubei New Army, and finally becoming the supreme commander of the armored corps, Zou Runyuan has always felt a little like in a dream, perhaps from the very beginning, he has formed an indissoluble bond with this new military technology, from the beginning of the telegraph officer to the later director of the electric mine division, and then to the colonel of the armored train battalion, until now, the supreme commander of the armored force, Gao Runjiao's every step is so smooth, this is of course the result of his hard work, But without the president's strong support, he wouldn't have gotten where he is now.

For the cultivation of the president, Gao Runxian is very grateful, as a professional soldier, he has no other means of repayment, he can only win victory for the president on the battlefield, and winning victory is inseparable from the training of the troops, since taking over the armored troops, Gao Runxian has been very close to the practice, every morning exercise, he always has to personally rush to the school to supervise, if the mood is good, he will even shout in person.

But now, Gao Runxian's mood is not very good, the reason is very simple, because the former enemy command has not issued an order for a general attack on Gaiping for a long time, although yesterday the former enemy command has bombarded the Japanese army in Gaiping with train guns for most of the day, but it has never issued an order for a general attack, and if the order is not reached, the armored troops of the Ministry of Runjiao will not be able to attack, which makes him feel very bad.

After so many years in the army, the Ministry of Prison has learned to be emotionally restrained, and the former enemy command does not give the order to attack, and he does not either, just six to ask for battle, because he understands that if the level thinks that the time to attack is coming. If the superior thinks that the time to attack is not right, then even if he writes a blood letter to ask for battle, it will be in vain, but it will increase the disgust of the superior, so he never takes the initiative to ask his superiors for battle, but this mood is also a little depressed.

Although the armored troops did engage in some small-scale battles with the enemy in this war on the Liaodong Peninsula, especially the unit commanded by Bai Lang, which made great contributions to the recovery of Xiuyan, as a brand-new branch of the armed forces, China's armored troops still lacked sufficient actual combat experience.

Although it is an important reason that the Tsarist Russian army entrenched in the North Manchurian region cannot be solved as soon as possible, then the Tsarist Russian army entrenched in the North Manchurian region cannot be solved as soon as possible, then the Tsarist Russian army entrenched in the north is always a potential threat, although Russia does not seem to have the intention of directly getting involved in the Sino-Japanese war in Liaodong at present, and the situation in Europe has also limited Russia's attention, but it is an undeniable fact that Once China expelled Japan's forces in South Manchuria, it would definitely cause Russia to worry, so after dealing with the Japanese forces entrenched in South Manchuria, Gao Runxian wanted to lead the armored troops north to deter the Russian army.

Therefore, in the view of the department, the sooner the Sino-Japanese war is fought, the better, which is exactly the same as the center's view, but as a front-line commander, Zou Runyuan does not know what the combat intention of the General Staff is, and he cannot understand why the former enemy command is reluctant to issue a general offensive order.

Yesterday, Wu Luzhen, the former commander-in-chief of the enemy, ordered the artillery bombardment of the Japanese defense line in Gaiping, and the train shelled for most of the day, and the Japanese army's front-line positions and logistics bases had been bombarded to a pulp. Yesterday's shelling was nothing more than a bluff on the part of the former enemy's command, and as for what the former enemy's commander-in-chief, Wu Luzhen, was planning to do, the Ministry of Prison could not guess.

He only knows that as long as the troops are trained and the time is in battle, the infantry will open their eyes, and they will be compared to Bai Lang no matter what, so that he Gao Runjiao is Bai Lang's master and boss, no matter how he says, he can't be left behind, Bai Lang can cooperate with the East Road Column to annihilate more than 10,000 Japanese soldiers, then the goal of the Ministry of Prison is to cooperate with the West Road Column to annihilate at least 30,000 Japanese troops.

Standing on the edge of the school field, watching the officers and soldiers drill, Gao Runjiao's mind was how to outflank the flank and rear road of the Japanese army, eat it in one bite, and rush to the south along the South Manchurian Railway to the Jinzhou Isthmus in one go, turning the Japanese Kwantung Army trapped in Lushun into a turtle in an urn.

Soon, the morning drill of the armored corps ended, followed by a long-distance run, in the past, the department usually ran a few laps with the soldiers, but today he was not in the mood, and before the running lap was over, he returned to the brigade headquarters, sat for a few minutes, and rushed to the field kitchen to see how the officers and soldiers had prepared their breakfast.

When the net reached the kitchen camp, a staff officer hurried from the telegraph room and handed Gao Runjiao an urgent telegram.

"I hereby order your department to quickly form a fast column and transfer from the direction of Gaiping to the Xiuyan area to stand by."

The content of this telegram was too simple, and Gao Runjiao was a little confused, and he did not know why the General Staff wanted to go over the Army General Staff Headquarters and directly take this order for him, and when he was about to reply to the telegram to ask for clarification, another telegram was forward, which was also sent by the General Staff, and it was obviously a supplement to the content of the previous telegram.

After reading this second telegram, Gao Runjiao finally understood why the General Staff asked him to divide his troops to reinforce Xiuyan.

Just yesterday afternoon, the Navy's submarine reconnaissance unit returned information that the Japanese Combined Fleet had escorted an army landing convoy sailing to the waters of West Korea Bay; according to analysis, the fleet's destination was likely to be the eastern coast of the Liaodong Peninsula, and the armored units of the General Staff Headquarters had been reinforced, just to cooperate with the East Route Column in launching an anti-landing operation.

"Great! It is simply too wise for the center to give this task to the armored soldiers! ”

The ministry frowned and hurriedly ordered the staff officers to convene a military meeting. The use of armored forces to launch an anti-landing operation is probably one of the greatest attempts in the history of human warfare, and Gao Runjiao will never let go of this opportunity.
