Zhang Zhongling set up his headquarters in Xinglong Town, which is less than ten kilometers away from the county seat of Yanzhou (Ziyang County), and it can be said that it has reached the nose of the Japanese army. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

With lightning speed, he took down all the Japanese puppet forces and personnel in the town, of course, someone had already sneaked back to Xinglongzhuang Town in the early stage, and was responsible for inquiring and responding.

Although Zhang Zhongling doubted the identity of the person responsible for providing the source of the intelligence information, he was reluctant to delve into it under such circumstances.

At this time, all his energy was focused on capturing Yanzhou, and as long as the information was reliable, he didn't mind cooperating with the civilian anti-Japanese armed forces whose identity was not very clear.

What's more, attacking Yanzhou will not work without the help of the locals.

The division headquarters has obviously been doing this work for a long time, and it is much easier to start a battle, and Zhang Zhongling unconsciously admires Leng Feng for this hand.

It is said that the rise of Leng Feng is a fluke, but it is just luck to win a few battles, but people who win the battle are by no means lucky, but really do their work.

A heavy rain disrupted Zhang Zhongling's original attack plan, and he could only push back the time of the attack, but this bad thing could also turn into a good thing.

With such a heavy rain, the Japanese puppet army was naturally reluctant to come out and move around, and the heavy rain could still cover up all traces and sounds, so Zhang Zhongling decided to take advantage of the natural cover of the rain to quietly arrange the troops to the position of the cause.

This was definitely a considerable test for the new 39th Brigade, marching in the rain, the roads were slippery, and it was at night, which required superior organizational and adaptation.

If there is a small mistake or mistake in that link, the impact will be huge.

In the second half of the night, the rain became heavier and heavier, looking at the posture, as if he didn't know when it was a head, Zhang Zhongling was naturally very anxious in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface.

At this time, he, the commander, must be stable, otherwise the officers and soldiers below should be unstable.

Before dawn.

"Deputy Brigade Zhang, this rain has been raining non-stop, what should we do?" Chief of Staff Lei Zheng was a little breathless, he was an old man in the teaching corps, and he had some ability, but as the chief of staff, he still lacked some heat, but at that time, the honorary first division lacked officers, and he was promoted to the position of chief of staff because of the actual situation at that time.

He was also conscientious in this position, did not make any mistakes, and in addition, he also recognized his own shortcomings and studied carefully, so the position of chief of staff has not moved.

"I'm worried that this rain will slow down our movements, and if we don't stop tomorrow after dawn, we'll be in trouble." Zhang Zhongling said.

"Yes, if it doesn't rain after dawn, our whereabouts will be easily exposed!"

"Although the information we have now shows that the Japanese army in Yanzhou has not fully realized that they are in a dangerous situation, the time has dragged on for a long time, and the Japanese army is not stupid."

"Report, division telegram!"

"Read!"

"At three o'clock in the morning on May 4, the new 37th Brigade of our division regained Jining and annihilated more than 800 Japanese troops in Jining.

"Got it."

"Deputy Brigade Seat, it seems that the Division Seat has been with us for one more day, which is a good thing for us."

"If the time drags on, it will not reach the suddenness of the attack, and if it starts, it will inevitably take time, and the loss will be greater, the original intention of the division is to take Yanzhou at the lowest cost, and to ensure the integrity of Yanzhou City, don't you understand?" Zhang Zhongling said.

"Well, that makes sense!"

"Come on, go and invite that Cheng Bochuan over, I have something to ask him to discuss." Zhang Zhongling commanded.

"Yes!"

"Deputy Brigade Commander Zhang, are you looking for me?"

"Captain Cheng, this time we attacked Yanzhou, thanks to your anti-Japanese guerrillas as the guide, early warning and intelligence gathering work, we have been so smooth on this journey, and we have also avoided the spies of the Japanese puppet army."

"Deputy Brigade Commander Zhang, don't say that, everyone is Chinese, you are a regular army, we are guerrillas, this attack on the county town, we are not capable, but we can run errands and inquire about news, then we people are much stronger than you, at least one mouth, it will not make people suspicious, right?" Cheng Bochuan smiled.

"Speaking of which, what the anti-Japanese emphasis is on is military-civilian cooperation, you have your advantages, we have our capabilities, and together we can drive away the Japanese devils."

"It's good to have Deputy Brigade Commander Zhang's words!"

"Polite words, let's not talk about it, I came to Captain Cheng just to learn more about the situation of the Japanese army in Yanzhou City."

"Don't get me wrong, I've already read all the information you provided, but I just want to know more about it." Zhang Zhongling saw that Cheng Bochuan had doubts on his face, and hurriedly added.

"Well, what do you want to know, I know, I'll tell you."

"How much do you know about the construction of a military airfield by the Japanese army in Yanzhou in the east of the city?" Zhang Zhongling said.

"In terms of the airport, the Japanese army is very well guarded, in addition to the beginning of the land leveling and forcibly requisitioning the people, the later construction of the aircraft nest, as well as various facilities, did not look for our Yanzhou locals, the specific situation inside is controlled by the Japanese, however, since the completion of this airport, we also know that many efforts to spy on the intelligence in the airport, it can be regarded as some ......achievements."

"I need information about the airport right now, how much can you provide?"

"What, Deputy Brigade Commander Zhang plans to move the Japanese airfield first?" Cheng Bochuan asked in surprise.

"Captain Cheng's sense of touch is so keen!"

"I'm just guessing, which made Deputy Brigade Zhang laugh."

"No, no, Captain Cheng has such a keen sense of touch, it's a pity to be a guerrilla leader." Zhang Zhongling smiled and couldn't help but love talent.

"My little dealer's style is really not worth mentioning, you better stop kidding."

"Okay, let's talk about this later, now let's talk about the Japanese military airfield, this weather, the Japanese planes must be lying in the cabin, if we can ......"

"Does Deputy Brigade Zhang really want to do this?"

"Of course, but I don't know when this rain will ......stop," Zhang Zhongling lamented, the troops were all in place, but the rain was too big, this battle was not easy to fight, once it became a tug-of-war, the loss would be great.

"According to my experience, after dawn, the rain will become lighter and even stop, and we are like this in this season here, there is more rain in the summer, but this kind of rainstorm is rare tonight, and it will happen a few times once in a while, and each time it will not exceed a day and night." Cheng Bochuan said.

"Are you sure?"

"The Japanese have a meteorological observatory in Yanzhou, although they will not be kind enough to predict the weather for us, but they will notify them internally, yesterday, the pseudo county government called the towns to inform them, there may be heavy rain at night, but the duration is not too long, it is estimated that it will be empty tomorrow."

"Isn't there a meteorological observatory at the airport, if there is no meteorological observation and warning for the plane to take off and land, in case of a thunderstorm, it will destroy the plane and kill people." Lei Zheng explained.

"It's only two hours until dawn, Xiao Tang, take a look at the rain outside?"

"Yes!"

"Report to the deputy brigade seat, the rain is a little lighter than just now, but it's still very heavy."

"With such heavy rain, the water level of the Sihe River will definitely skyrocket, how did Qiao Guoliang get there?" Leng Feng is also worried about this problem, and night crossings are very dangerous, especially in the case of heavy rain.

"I heard that it was over before the rainstorm fell?"

"Where's the equipment for crossing the river?"

"With the help of the villagers, the engineer battalion took local materials and found a relatively narrow place to erect a pontoon bridge, and the heavy equipment could only be disassembled to cross the river, and the car could not pass, so it was necessary to take the Sihe railway bridge on the Jinpu Railway!"

"It looks like they're moving faster than I thought." Leng Feng nodded.

"Report, Deputy Brigade Commander Zhang called, their intention is to hit the Japanese airfield and barracks first!" Guo Weiquan pushed the door in from the outside and reported.

"Oh, changed your mind?" Leng Feng was surprised, the original plan was to attack Yanzhou City first, and then concentrate on attacking the military camp and airfield.

Although Yanzhou City is strong, there are few garrisons in the city, as long as a gap is opened, it is easy to overcome, and with the heavy artillery they carry, it is relatively much easier.

If you can take Yanzhou City, besiege Dongdaying in turn, and solve the airport, the relative pressure will be easier, and it will definitely take longer to fight Dongdaying.

Leng Feng has also seen the situation in Yanzhou Dongdaying, it is indeed not easy to overcome, I am afraid that it will be much more difficult to fight than Yanzhou County, and it is not unreasonable to consider taking Yanzhou County first and then besieging Dongdaying.

Of course, Leng Feng didn't agree with this plan in his heart, but Zhang Zhongling had his own considerations, and no matter which one was fought first, he had to talk about the complete elimination of the Japanese army in the Yanzhou area.

This battle was not directly commanded by him, and he also had the intention of testing Zhang Zhongling, so he did not directly oppose it.

Now that Zhang Zhongling's thoughts have suddenly changed, he is really a little curious about what happened during this period.

"Yes, this is their new battle plan, can you take a look?"

"I'll see." Leng Feng took the telegram, and after reading it, he directly handed it to Chief of Staff Xie Jiyuan.

"Airfield?"

"It seems that Zhang Zhongling has realized that the Japanese military airfield in Yanzhou is the main force supporting the front line of Taierzhuang, if we seize this airport, then according to the current weather conditions, the planes must be lying in the cabin, a little interesting, hehe......" Leng Feng laughed playfully.

"You mean, let's take down the airfield and fly the Japanese planes to bomb them?"

"Why not?"

"It's too unlikely, right, where did we get the pilot?" Xie Jiyuan said incredulously.

"If we don't have a pilot, we can borrow it!" Leng Feng said.

"Borrow, whoever borrows, who can lend us the pilot at this time, besides, it's too late?" Xie Jiyuan felt that Leng Feng was a little whimsical.

"Isn't the Fourth Air Force Brigade temporarily stationed at Guide Airport, and we will ask them to borrow people, and once Zhang Zhongling's side takes the Japanese airfield, we can send transport planes to fly the pilots over, and then we will have pilots?"

"It's not enough to have pilots, but we don't have ground crew?"

"Who says we don't have ground crew?" Leng Feng laughed.

"Really ground crew?"
