237: Forced march

"Commander, I received a strange telegram, forwarded from the 39th Division!" The telegraph soldier took the strange telegram and woke Wu Yang, the commander of the Third Army, from his sleep. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, Wu Yang was still in Shouyang County, and he dealt with large and small official affairs during the day, which also made Wu Yang feel for the first time that dealing with official business was not more worry-free than fighting, but there was a feeling of exhaustion.

Unexpectedly, not long after falling asleep, Wu Yang was shouted by his soldiers.

According to the plan, early tomorrow morning, Wu Yang will leave Shouyang and continue to attack Taiyuan with the large army, until after taking Taiyuan, Wu Yang will be able to have time to rest.

He sat up from the stiff floor, looked at the sheet that he had humiliated a thousand times, and was more or less speechless.

The troops are equipped with marching beds for high-ranking officers, and I heard that they will be equipped step by step in the future.

Although the marching bed makes people less tired when they sleep at night, the response of the marching bed in the army is not good.

For no other reason, marching with a marching bed, if you exchange him for ammunition, you can at least bring three or four more boxes of ammunition.

The mountain road is difficult to walk, so this time the Third Army did not carry a marching bed, and most soldiers could only find some thatch to spread on the ground at night, and then spread the sheets on it and simply sleep.

I rubbed my eyes and tried to make myself as awake as possible.

After receiving the telegram, Wu Yang was stunned, because this was a half-finished telegram, except for the military headquarters of the Third Army at the beginning, and the 39th Division forwarded these two sentences that were translated, the rest were all the original code.

"Commander, we translated according to the code, but the result of the translation was very messy, and even the sentences did not make sense, so even this source code was taken together." The telegraph operator said.

Wu Yang looked at it in turn, and found that it had indeed been translated, but the sentence was indeed very unsmooth, what I am the sea, my home is in the sky, and I don't know what to do with the warships I eat.

"Where is the Thirty-ninth Division now?" Wu Yang was stunned for a moment, and then asked.

"Pingtou Town, at the current speed, we will be able to reach Taiyuan before dark tomorrow at the latest." The telegraph operator said.

Pingtou Town is only more than 20 kilometers away from Taiyuan in a straight line, and in order to facilitate communication, according to the regulations, when the troops camp at night, they need to find a high ground to place telegraph machines there.

Otherwise, in a place like Shanxi, the mountains would block the radio signal, and the radio stations equipped by the Han army, even if they were high-power radios equipped by the military headquarters of the Third Army, could only send the signal to a distance of about 50 kilometers at best.

The radio station at the division level is not too much, although the distance is not too far, but it is enough for now.

But when it comes to brigade-level radios, their power is somewhat small, and at most they can only transmit to a distance of thirty kilometers, and they are still unhindered.

The 39th Division, the head of the telegram platoon directly named the military headquarters of the Third Army to collect it, is it a shadow?

Wu Yang remembered the telegram that Wang Sirui handed him before the expedition, and reminded that if he received an untranslatable telegram on the way, he would use this code to translate.

"I see, you guys go outside first." Wu Yang nodded, he knew the importance of the telegram book on his body, and he didn't dare to take it out in front of too many people.

He hurriedly drove the telegraph soldier out, and after checking left and right to find out that there was no one, he took out the telegram book from his bosom.

Five minutes later, looking at the content of this telegram, Wu Yang's face was even more shocked and couldn't believe it.

There are not many words in this telegram, only a few sentences, but every word reveals its importance, and even, this telegram can make or break the outcome of the war.

'Taiyuan will fall, the officials are imprisoned at the West Gate, and their families carry heavy money in Jiaocheng. Fox! ’

Wu Yang knew that there were their shadows in Taiyuan City, but he didn't expect that the shadows could play such a big role, and even he solved a battle by himself and took Taiyuan bloodlessly.

However, Wu Yang also knew very well that now was not the time for him to be shocked.

The fox sent this telegram out, not just to tell them about the current situation in Taiyuan City.

"Someone!" Wu Yang shouted outside.

"Commander!" The telegraph operator walked in.

"The telegram ordered the 39th Division to immediately send a regiment of troops to secretly occupy Jiaocheng and control everyone there, especially the families of those officials in Taiyuan City. In addition, a regiment of troops was secretly sent to hide outside the west gate of Taiyuan, and the 22nd Division was ordered to reach the north of Taiyuan before dawn the day after tomorrow. At eight o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow, a general attack on Taiyuan will be launched! "Wu Yang issued a series of orders.

Now that the fox has taken control of Taiyuan, Wuyang's side must speed up the march to avoid long nights and dreams.

But because of the distance between the troops and Taiyuan, even if they let go, it would be almost dark when they arrived in Taiyuan, and there was no way to attack the city immediately.

Although the city will surrender at that time, what is the identity of the fox over there? Can you make the defenders of the city surrender? This dangerous sheep did not dare to take the risk, so he could only wait for the morning after tomorrow, and launch a general attack after all the troops arrived.

If Taiyuan City surrenders, it will naturally be better, but if they don't surrender, then they can only attack. And at that time, the troops had already arrived, and they were not afraid that the people in the city would escape.

"Yes, Commander!" The telegraph operator answered, and immediately ran out.

That night, the troops of the three divisions of the entire Third Army were very busy, and the telegraph soldiers kept sending telegrams one after another.

One soldier was woken up from his sleep and had to march at night against sleepiness.

The 39th Division is better here, after all, they are not far from Taiyuan, and the only thing that suffers is the troops of the two regiments, one of them needs to go to Jiaocheng as soon as possible, and the other needs to secretly go to the west gate of Taiyuan.

The rest of the troops will be able to sleep soundly and continue their march when it is dawn tomorrow.

The 22nd Division was not so lucky.

They traveled the farthest distance, and they were the first to start the march, and they were even hurrying along the way, marching three or four hours more than the other troops every day.

In order to be able to reach the predetermined place within the specified time, the 22nd Division basically started marching in the morning after it could see the road, and did not stop until the evening when the road was completely out of sight.

Not to mention the soldiers along the way, even the tents of the division headquarters of the 22nd Division were not used, and the soldiers were even more tired like dogs, and they hated to sleep directly without eating every night.

But even so, the 22nd Division had just arrived in Xie, and there was still a distance of nearly 50 kilometers in diameter from Qinglong Town, plus a detour or something, at least about 80 kilometers away.

The day after tomorrow morning, we will rush to Taiyuan, which is undoubtedly a huge challenge for the 22nd Division.

……

"Master, the brothers are as tired as a dog, and now they can't even get up quickly, the military department is not difficult for strong people, they don't take into account our difficulties at all." After receiving the telegram, Ren Shui gathered the top leaders of his command to discuss countermeasures together, and the deputy division commander vented his dissatisfaction to Ren Shui.

However, Ren Shui did not listen to the deputy division commander's venting.

Ren Shui is a group of soldiers with Wu Yang, both of whom started from the earliest with Wang Sirui, and the promotion speed of the two is also the same.

If you want to blame, the only thing that can be blamed is that Ren Shui's previous position was a little low, if he was a platoon commander or company commander back then, I am afraid that he can at least be a deputy army commander now.

Of course, Ren Shui's ability to get to where he is today is not all due to luck and the aura of the protagonist's loyal ministers.

Ren Shui knew very well what Wu Yang was like, if it weren't for what had happened in Taiyuan, Wu Yang would never have given this kind of order.

And the previous order that Wu Yang gave to Ren Shui should have arrived in Qinglong before dark, and Ren Shui was also marching at this speed.

"Don't talk nonsense, I understand the military commander, he is not a person who does not consider his subordinates, there must be a new change in Taiyuan, and the military department has to temporarily change the plan." Ren Shui reprimanded with a straight face.

The deputy division commander snorted, yes, you are the boss, you have the final say, who called me to join the Northeast Army in the middle of the road?

"Master, we have to listen to the orders of the military headquarters, but we also have to consider the situation of the brothers. I propose to immediately send the 223rd Regiment lightly armed and force the march to the north of Taiyuan before dark tomorrow.

At the same time, we should also explain our situation to the military headquarters, the general attack the morning after tomorrow, the 223rd Regiment is only responsible for feints, just hold back the enemy, and our large army will also speed up the next day, as far as possible to reach the north of Taiyuan before noon the day after tomorrow. Yu Zhi, chief of staff of the 22nd Division, said.

The 223rd Regiment is the old foundation unit of the 22nd Division, and it is currently the regiment with the most complete training and the strongest combat effectiveness of the 22nd Division.

Although it is also a little difficult for the 223rd Regiment to march lightly, after all, it is an old unit, and its will to fight is also stronger than that of other troops, and there has been forced march training before, and the only thing that the 22nd Division can do at present is probably only the 223rd Regiment.

As the chief of staff of the 22nd Division, Yu Zhi needs to do a lot of things, and if he doesn't understand the situation of the troops, then there is no way for him to carry out his work, so he thought of this method at the first time.

"Yes, arrange for someone to replace all the sentries of the 223rd Regiment, give them an hour and a half of rest, and call Zhang Luo to me after an hour." Ren Shui nodded, now there is only one way.
