"Sir, there are not many shells, but don't worry, we can promise not to let the devils cross the river!" The artillery battalion commander replied.

Han Fei was very dissatisfied, and thought to himself: Isn't this nonsense? There are not many shells, can you guarantee that you will not let the devils break through? Bragging, how can you guarantee it? With your mouth?

"Tell me what you think? How can you block that river without shells? Han Fei asked the artillery battalion commander.

"Lay mines on the riverbank, dig traps and traps to delay devils to get ashore, and then block them with artillery fire!" The commander of the artillery battalion replied.

"Okay, you can do this, and ask the sappers to speak." Han Fei nodded, feeling that this artillery battalion commander could use his brains and was a manufacturable material, unlike other officers, who were rigid in battle and lifeless step by step.

"Report to the chief, our regiment has an engineer company, so don't bother your department." The commander of the artillery battalion is still serious.

"Okay, if only you could handle it." Han Fei thought to himself, good guy, it's all this time, you guys are still divided into special service companies and Sichuan army troops? Interesting? But after thinking about it, after all, they are a reinforced regiment, and it is enough to listen to the command of me, the major of the spy company, so what else can I do?

The engineer company under Commander Huang immediately dispatched, and under the cover of artillery fire from behind, rushed to the barren grassland on the other side of the river, and began to dig pits and lay mines.

Okamoto devil saw that the first onslaught was slapped in the face, not only did he not cross the river, but he was killed and wounded many of his soldiers, and even those who cut down trees and set up wooden rows in the city could not rush over, and all of them were blown up on the river.

The devil stopped attacking, desperately digging pits and building fortifications and trenches on the other side of the river, all this was seen by Han Fei, he pondered, he felt that the devil was going to play tricks, he didn't cross the river to attack, and wanted to trick us into crossing the river?

When Commander Huang saw that the devil didn't come up, he thought that the opportunity had come, so he hurriedly ran over and said to Han Fei: "Major Han, the devil has withdrawn, let's just rush across the river, catch up and beat them!" ”

Captain Huang's expression was very excited, beads of sweat appeared on his head, obviously very excited, but Han Fei shook his head: "Captain Huang, don't be in a hurry at this time, the devil is already digging a pit on the other side and waiting for us to jump in?" We rushed up and fell into their trap. ”

"Ah, what then? Could it be that we are here to fight with them? ”

"There's no need to see, as long as your troops run in the direction of Wuwei Town, they will immediately catch up, just now it is estimated that we fought too hard, and the little devil was beaten with a stick, and he was pondering?" Han Fei is confident, he has been dealing with these devils on the opposite side for a long time, and he can roughly estimate what the thoughts of these devil officers are, the little devil is also the master who bullies the soft and fears the hard, if you resist desperately, more ruthlessly than him, he will be honest, otherwise as long as you have a trace of weakness, the little devil will pounce on you like a hungry wolf and bite your throat!

"You want me to run? Why? Isn't that a good fight? I don't want to run, or I'll be scolded to death by the teacher. As soon as Commander Huang heard that Han Fei asked him to run back, he immediately became anxious, but he didn't know that this was Han Fei's strategy to lure the devil wing across the river, Han Fei understood that only by deceiving this devil wing could he be sure to defeat the devil on his side, because there were two divisions of the Sichuan army in Wuwei Town behind it as a backing, no matter how awesome the devil wing was, they couldn't bear it with a six-to-one force comparison, not to mention that there was no nearby flank to pick up this devil wing, Their combat power is only half of the normal one.

The book of the art of war says that in order to win the battle, you must have at least 60 percent certainty, and Han Fei only needs to deceive the presumptuous devil wing to cross the river and immediately cut off the retreat route, and the victory of this battle is at least 80 percent or more, although the casualties of the troops will be very large, but as long as this devil wing can be completely annihilated, it will definitely be an improvement on the current general defeat pessimism on the Songhu battlefield, and can arouse the determination of the anti-Japanese army and people to resist.

"It's not for you to really run, it's to lure the devil across the river, you don't have to worry about the rest, just do what I say, what's the matter, you Master Wang didn't give you an explanation?" Han Fei asked.

That Huang Tuanchang is a martial artist with five big and three rough, his culture is not high, and he doesn't like to beat around the bush, after hearing Han Fei's words, he finally understood, and hurriedly nodded again and again: "Understood, okay, I'll do it right away." ”

After a while, the devil who was digging a pit on the other side of the river suddenly found that the squadron on the opposite side began to retreat in the direction of Wuwei Town, when Okamoto Devil learned the news of the retreat of the squadron on the opposite side, he didn't believe it, ran to a high slope, and looked at it with a telescope, and sure enough, a large number of squadrons on the opposite bank were retreating in the direction of Wuwei Town, the smoke was billowing and the team was very messy.

The devil Okamoto was overjoyed, and felt that his opportunity to attack the river had come, and several devil staff officers next to him advised him: "Your Excellency, the enemy suddenly retreated, and there was no warning in advance, is there a deception?" ”

"What can there be? The impact of the Zhina army just now is already the end of the crossbow, can't you all see it? Now is a good time for us to assault, but you are still here chirping crookedly demagoguery, if you let the front batch of Zhina troops run away and let them occupy the military town - Wuwei Town, can you afford the responsibility of delaying the fighters? "Okamoto is very dissatisfied, why is there always someone pouring cold water on him when he has to make an important decision?

As soon as those devil staff officers heard that Okamoto had pressed down the big hat that delayed the fighter, they didn't dare to speak anymore, thinking that you Okamoto was the main responsibility for the military commander of this wing, and we were just providing advice when we were staff officers, so we were not in a hurry to be in a hurry with you, right, you said you could pursue, then listen to you, catch up.

Originally, Okamoto still had a chance to escape this catastrophe, at least to keep the main force of his wing, but his consistent arrogance and contempt for the squadron made him make a wrong decision: cross the river and pursue the fleeing Shina Army troops!
