Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Way to Break the Enemy

Liu Changfeng frowned and said to Lu Shaohui; "Lao Lu, we are not far from the Japanese ambush position, let the troops stop. ‘’

Lu Shaohui nodded, and immediately ordered the troops to stop advancing, and ordered Squad Leader Zhou to be on guard, and the others rested on the spot. Then he crouched down with his main officer and counseled in a low voice. The current situation is grim and the fate of the troops is at stake.

''Brother Liu, it seems that the little devil really has a conspiracy, and the commander of the Japanese devil is not simple. Lu Shaohui said in a low voice.

Liu Changfeng also squatted down, nodded and said; ''Yes, the little devils first struck us into the ambush circle they had set up, and if I am not mistaken, they should have spotted the traces of our camp by now, and they would soon find us if they followed our footprints.'' ‘’

Zhang Song kept nodding and said; ''Brother Liu's analysis is good, it seems that the little devil is determined to win, and we are now in a desperate situation. ‘’

Li Jie and Du Yimin glanced at each other with solemn faces, shook their heads, and Li Jie said angrily; ''In that case, battalion commander, let's fight with them.'' ‘’

Lu Shaohui raised his eyebrows and said awe-inspiringly; Since the little devil opened his pockets and surrounded us, we will concentrate our forces and attack it a little bit less than the rest, even if the little devil's defense line is an iron wall, Lao Tzu will bite it open a gap, and the brothers will charge again, rushing over with lightning speed, Brother Liu, what do you think?''

Everyone looked at Liu Changfeng, as long as Liu Changfeng nodded, the matter was settled.

Liu Changfeng looked at everyone, and finally his eyes stayed on Lu Shaohui's face, he was silent for a while, and said in a low voice; "Lao Lu, brothers, Lao Lu's proposal is good, but in this way, our casualties will be heavy, and we will launch a strong attack on the enemy in front of us, who has been planning for a long time, waiting for work, and the fire points are criss-crossed, and they are condescending, even if we can defeat the enemy and flee by taking the road, how many people will be able to rush out in the end?" I'm afraid half of the people here will ......''

Liu Changfeng didn't continue, but everyone understood what he meant, and what Liu Changfeng said made sense, and everyone was silent. In the end, it was Lu Shaohui who broke the silence and said; ''Brother Liu, do you have a better way?''

Liu Changfeng thought for a while, he already had a plan in his heart, glanced at everyone, and said slowly; "Ladies and gentlemen, the Japanese have opened a wide net on the periphery, set up an ambush in front, and when they find us, they will pounce fiercely, but this is just wishful thinking on the part of the Japanese, we just don't fall for him, we can take the initiative to attack, disrupt their established deployment, mobilize the enemy, they will inevitably pounce in this direction, we will quickly withdraw from the battle, take advantage of the continuous mountains here to maneuver with the Japanese, kill and wound the enemy in the movement, and if there is a chance, we can also hit them in an ambush, But the prerequisite was that they could quickly withdraw from the battle and not be entangled by the Japanese. ‘’

Everyone glanced at each other, hesitating in their hearts, although Liu Changfeng's plan was good, it was also very dangerous, especially in this process, there were too many variables, unexpected changes would occur at any time, and if they were not careful, they would fall into a siege, and the result might be the annihilation of the whole army.

"Well, Brother Liu, let's take a long-term view and see if there's a better way." Lu Shaohui said squeaked.

Liu Changfeng knew that Lu Shaohui didn't dare to take risks, so he sighed in his heart and said with a wry smile; ''Lao Lu, the Japanese don't have much time left for us, the pursuers behind us are getting closer and closer, and the space for us to maneuver is getting smaller and smaller, and if they complete the encirclement, we will be more passive. ‘’

Lu Shaohui frowned, his face was sullen, as the commander of the army, he knew the truth of hesitating to kill the three armies, but he had to take into account all aspects, how to minimize the loss, it was a living life.

''I agree with Brother Liu's plan. Surprisingly, Zhang Song, who has been sparing no effort to support Lu Shaohui, openly supports Liu Changfeng, Zhang Song looked at Lu Shaohui and said; "Battalion commander, I thought about it carefully, although Brother Liu's plan is very risky, but the chance of success is also very high, if it is handled well, most of our brothers can get out alive." ‘’

Although Zhang Song's attitude surprised Lu Shaohui, it also made him put down the last bit of worry in his heart, Staff Officer Zhang's words were good, danger and opportunity coexisted, and he immediately slapped his thigh and said decisively; "Okay, let's do it, Brother Liu, the idea is yours, it's up to you to deploy the battle plan." ‘’

Liu Changfeng knew that this was not the time to be humble, so he glanced at everyone, saw everyone nodding, and immediately said solemnly; ''Well, my plan is, the first step, to frighten the enemy, the second step, to trap the enemy, and the third step, to get out of trouble. Let's talk about the first step, we choose a favorable position, we must attack and retreat, and then take the initiative to attack the enemy, lure out the enemy's ambush troops, and also mobilize the enemy's peripheral forces, so as to completely disrupt the enemy's established deployment. The second step is to be improvised, depending on the situation. ‘’

Everyone nodded in agreement, tactics can be fixed, but the situation on the battlefield can change rapidly, and the commander can determine the next plan of action according to the specific situation. Liu Changfeng and others were arranging combat missions, and Situ Ming and Mo Haitao came back one after another, and they also reported that they had found Japanese ambushes in front.

Everyone smiled bitterly, the Japanese are really a big hand, the front and back add up, at least there is a wing of several thousand troops, it seems that the Japanese are determined to win, and they will not give up if they do not annihilate themselves.

Liu Changfeng decided to let the troops advance quietly, depending on the terrain to determine the location of the attack and the route of retreat. Everyone cautiously advanced in battle formation, and stopped at a mountain pass, everyone was clinging to the hillside, Qin Xiaobao leaned out, pointed to a hill in front of him, and said softly; ''Brother Liu, even the hill in front, as well as on the slopes on the left and right, there are little devils in ambush. ‘’

Liu Changfeng nodded, raised the telescope, moved slowly, the breeze was gentle, the branches and weeds fluttered slightly, the hillside in front was quiet, and the Japanese were not seen, it seemed that they were well hidden.

''Head. Suddenly, Zhuo Wei's voice came from above everyone's heads. Everyone was taken aback, and Zhuo Wei and Qin Sihai slid down the hillside on everyone's left silently. Zhuo Wei walked to Liu Changfeng's side lightly and said calmly; ''That, that, that, and there, there are little devils in ambush. ‘’

Liu Changfeng nodded quietly, according to visual observation, this place is about more than four hundred meters away from the ambush point of the little devil, and within the range of the Type 92 heavy machine gun and the crooked handle, he can launch a tentative attack here. So he quietly ordered Zhuo Wei, Situ Ming and Mo Haitao to take Li Rong and Qin Zhuang's children and most of Lu Shaohui's troops to an ambush on a hillside five hundred meters away from his right rear, ready to meet him, he only left fifty people for a tentative attack, ten crooked handles and a Type 92 heavy machine gun, the Type 92 heavy machine gun was too cumbersome and inconvenient to retreat, but in order to confuse the Japanese, Liu Changfeng still decided to leave a heavy machine gun.

Liu Changfeng and Lu Shaohui took more than 50 people to quietly touch the mountain beam next to them, quickly set up the machine gun, looked back, and saw that the others had already walked to the destination and slowly disappeared from their field of vision.

The wind on the mountain beam was obviously much stronger, Liu Changfeng patted Lu Shaohui's shoulder and said with a smile; "Lao Lu, let's start, we've come to fight the grass and scare the snake to see what the little devil does." ‘’

Lu Shaohui grinned; ''Brother Liu, you're wrong, we're obviously scared of ghosts.'' ‘’
