It is undeniable that Sun Zhongren has many shortcomings, and he sometimes speaks very directly, which is very hurtful, typical of the American thinking pattern. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

There is nothing that people can't talk about, and soldiers are not politicians.

Leng Feng appreciates this frank and direct style, what is not hidden, of course, over the years, his edges and corners have also been worn out, and he has also conformed to the way of doing things in some Chinese.

This kind of collision of Eastern and Western cultures is particularly obvious in people who have stayed abroad, especially Sun Zhongren's confident and flying expression, Mr. Song, who is also from the United States, naturally does not have any diaphragm in the same mode of thinking, but will appreciate it very much, but in China, this self-confidence has become arrogant and domineering......

It depends on how you understand it, this is the difference between Eastern and Western cultures, of course Leng Feng knows it, and he can understand it, and some people also know it, but it's hard to say whether he can understand it.

There is something called something that is integrated into the blood, called genes.

Leng Feng looks at the problem from the height of a later person, which is already a lot higher, there are many cattle people in this era, but can they be cattle over a person who knows the future of history?

Obviously, he can't, so Leng Feng has a kind of down-looking mentality, looking at people is relatively objective, and some things, as long as they are not principled, he can tolerate them.

Therefore, he and Sun Zhongren can chat together, and can also accept some of Sun Zhongren's views, Mr. Song admires him, but he doesn't understand military affairs, and he can't talk professionally, Leng Feng is different, Sun Zhongren naturally thinks that he has met a bosom friend.

And Leng Feng was originally more knowledgeable than him, and a little mention made him feel infinitely useful, and slowly he didn't regard Leng Feng as a "junior", and even spontaneously produced a feeling of worship in his heart.

Of course, this emotion will not be too strong, and it will slowly grow, grow, and eventually grow into a towering tree.

"The military seat, the division seat, the meals are ready, shall we eat first?" When these two people started talking, they didn't have a head, and it was half an hour when they talked about it, and they were just the kind of people who hated to see each other late.

"Yes, eat first, Brother Zhongren, I really don't think it's time to chat with you at all, but it's a pity that the time is too short, otherwise, we can talk to him for three days and three nights." Leng Feng was very happy, he and Sun Zhongren had a lot of coincidence.

This American military academy has a much broader vision than the generals at home.

"It's the same with Zhongren, it's been a long time since I've said it so happily."

Leng Feng's lunch at the New 36th Brigade consisted of three dishes and one soup, which was the highest standard of the New First Army's wartime food.

Officers and soldiers eat together, Leng Feng has always practiced what he does, and he has never been specialized, but he must be separated, and he is a military commander, no matter from the consideration of safety or confidentiality, he cannot live with ordinary soldiers.

Moreover, Leng Feng's schedule can't be so standardized, the soldier sleeps when he arrives, he can't, if he wants to do this, this job can't be done.

"Brother Zhongren, Brother Zhongren......"

While eating, he heard someone outside shouting Sun Zhongren's name, Leng Feng looked up in surprise, this was clearly the voice of Zhang Zhongling.

"Throne, shall I take a look?"

Leng Feng nodded with a smile: "Our white horse Xiao is coming, let's go, I'll go out and have a look together." ”

Sun Zhongren nodded.

Seeing Leng Feng and Sun Zhongren appear together, Zhang Zhongling, who had just come off the horse and strode over, was startled, but he was also a person who had seen the wind and waves, and he quickly calmed down.

"Zhang Zhongling has seen the military seat, Senior Commander Sun!"

Zhang Zhongling is the brigade commander of the new 39th Brigade, and he is not a direct subordinate of Sun Zhongren, the commander of the 201st Division, so he does not need to call Sun Zhongren "division seat", but honorifically addresses him as "division commander".

Of course, if Leng Feng is not there, he can be casual and call "Zhongren" brother directly, which is normal in the army, and it is normal to be a good friend.

Isn't Chairman Jiang often called a brother and a brother?

Even if it is his students, who are a little heavier, sometimes they will call "brother" like that, which is very common.

"Zhong Ling is here."

"Junza, I didn't expect you to be here."

"I'm passing by, Brother Zhongren has a meal, no, you came before the meal was finished, shouldn't you also come to eat?" Leng Feng said with a smile.

"If you want to, don't you dare to ask for it?" Zhang Zhongling smiled.

"Let's be together, then." Leng Feng greeted and decided for Sun Zhongren, the master.

"Chief of Staff Qi, let the cooking squad stir-fry two more dishes."

"Master Sun, don't be so troublesome, just bring it up if you have leftovers." Zhang Zhongling hurriedly said.

Leng Feng didn't speak, but nodded casually, it stands to reason that there is nothing wrong with this, and it doesn't violate the rules, you can't let Zhang Zhongling eat the rest of their dishes, and it should be done to cook two more.

There is no need to re-burn, and the rest of the dishes are heated up and served, which also saves time.

The New 39th Brigade had been fighting with the Independent Mixed Fourth Brigade for nearly five days, and the New 36th Brigade had been outflanking from behind, and it had been fighting for a day and a half.

With nearly 15,000 men in two brigades, it should not be difficult to fight an independent mixed brigade of about 4,000 Japanese troops, with four times the strength of the troops.

The Japanese army is not a rabble, the combat effectiveness is very strong, and after a few days, the casualty figure of the new 39th Brigade is even higher than that of the Japanese army, although the new 36th Brigade has been fighting for a shorter time, but the situation is basically the same.

This still illustrates a problem, the new First Army is still not comparable to the Japanese army in terms of individual soldiers and overall strength, even if it is an independent mixed unit of the Fourth Brigade and other local garrison troops.

There is still a certain gap with the Japanese Army's Class A divisions.

If Kawamura Dong sticks to it, in the absence of a major breakthrough, if he wants to eat this Japanese army, yes, the time will inevitably be extended.

If you want to break through the Japanese defense line, you must concentrate on breaking through the Japanese defensive position, but in terms of offensive strength, the new 39th and new 36th brigades are slightly insufficient.

After the 7th Independent Artillery Regiment helped the new 39th Brigade fight the Battle of Yanzhou, it naturally couldn't stay anymore, otherwise it would really be disobeying the order and transferred to the Eastern Henan Battlefield, and the 4th Artillery Regiment was assigned to the 20th Army of the 52nd Army.

And the new 36 Brigade is a newly formed unit, and the light weapons and equipment of the troops are not bad, and they have weapons that the restored German armament divisions do not have, and they are not bad.

But the heavy weapons are obviously insufficient, just a field artillery battalion, the new 39th Brigade is slightly better, there is also a mountain artillery battalion, plus a heavy mortar battalion, and both brigades have a heavy machine gun battalion.

In terms of weapons and equipment, the two brigades are not inferior to the elite divisions of the National Army, and even some armies cannot compare.

The 1st Honor Division originally also had two artillery regiments, a heavy howitzer regiment and an ordinary field artillery regiment, the heavy howitzer regiment was temporarily attached to the new 38th Division, and the field artillery regiment was temporarily attached to the new 37th Brigade, all of which remained in Luxi.

The powerful heavy firepower of the new First Army remained in Luxi, and the three main brigades that entered northern Henan did not have a single artillery with a caliber of more than 100 millimeters.

On the other hand, the Fourth Brigade of the Japanese Army's Independent Mixed Brigade was actually equipped with two infantry artillery squadrons and two mountain artillery squadrons, adding up to 16 artillery pieces, and the overall strength was four more than the new 36th and New 39th Brigades combined (the mountain artillery battalion and field artillery battalion of the New First Army were six, while the Japanese mountain artillery and field artillery squadrons were both four, and they were generally 75 mm).

In addition, the Japanese army also had a squadron of heavy mortars and a squadron of heavy machine guns, as well as two 105 mm heavy cannons, which had a long range and great power.

Although the troops are desperately suppressing the opponent, the firepower is dispersed and used, and the heavy firepower is suppressed, which makes people feel aggrieved in the fight.

"It is a good way to concentrate the artillery of the two brigades and use it, open a hole, tear through the Japanese defenses, and then go to the tactics of cutting through the Japanese army, dividing and surrounding the Japanese army, dividing the battlefield into two, two into four, and then annihilating them one by one."

"Brigade Commander Zhang, once we concentrate our artillery, the range of the Japanese army's 105 heavy cannons is far away from ours, and our artillery positions may be in danger of being bombed." Chief of Staff Qi Xueqi asked.

"Therefore, we must solve this problem, as long as we solve these two heavy artillery pieces of the Japanese army, which pose a huge threat to us, then the next battle will be easy to fight."

"How to solve it, the Japanese army is very protective of these two guns, even if we know where they are, it is difficult to get close." Chief of Staff Li Qingyuan frowned and asked.

"We should know that we can figure out the approximate location of the Japanese army's deployment of these two heavy guns, right?"

"It's not hard to be sure, it's definitely an area that is difficult to cover at the range of our artillery." Qi Xue Qidao.

"The 105 heavy howitzer, that's a big guy, it's not easy to move, and every time it moves, it's extremely time-consuming, as long as it's not within the range of our artillery, then there's no need for the Japanese army to move, because in its position, it can hit us, we can't hit him, right?"

"Yes." Everyone nodded, this truth is too simple, everyone can understand, this is on the plain, even if you keep moving back and forth, as long as you fire the cannon, the position will definitely be exposed, there is no doubt about it.

"Determine the location of the Japanese 105 heavy cannon, we can choose the nearest road, and then concentrate all our artillery, blast open a road, send an elite force, directly rush to their artillery position, and seize his artillery position as quickly as possible, even if the Japanese drama can transfer the artillery, as long as we can cut the Japanese encirclement into two, in that case, will our artillery also be able to arrive?"

"That's right." Qi Xueqi took a big shot. legs, exclaimed, why didn't he think of it.

"Zhong Ling's method is practical, the tone is a little bit to shrink the encirclement, it is better to tear a gap, divide the Japanese army into two, and fight more flexibly." Sun Zhongren nodded, this is indeed a good way.

"If you can, the artillery can be used in a centralized manner, but it does not need to be concentrated in one place, as long as the target is delineated and the command is unified, so that even if it is discovered, some of it will be saved."

"It's pessimistic, we can choose to strike before dawn or after dusk......"

"It's better to be sure before dawn, and if we fight at night, we are also not very familiar with the terrain here, and in comparison, we are a little inferior to the Japanese army."

"Good before dawn!"

"What do you mean?"

"I have no opinion, I have already handed over this battle to Brother Zhongren to command, how to fight is your business, I only ask the result." Leng Feng said with a smile.

Zhang Zhongling's idea of this method is really good, if you blindly fight a positional battle with the Japanese army, you can also win, but the time is long, and the casualties will be not small, this is not what Leng Feng wants, and the time is prolonged, and the variables are also large.

"That's it, the staff office will make a plan, let's discuss it again, take into account all the issues that can be considered, the attack time is tentatively scheduled for tomorrow morning, Brigade Commander Zhongling, what do you think?"

"I listen to Junzuo and Master Sun." Zhang Zhongling said.

"I'm leaving, you have a specific plan, report to the military department, I'll take a look, if there is no problem, I will do it according to what you discussed." Leng Feng nodded.

"It would be nice if we could call in our air force for support." Chief of Staff Li Qingyuan suddenly said this.

Everyone was stunned.

This is the best and most direct way, no matter how powerful the ground artillery is, can it compare to the aerial bombardment? Now even a bomber can take out the devil's artillery position.

The question is, is there one?

Now the national government's air force can't protect itself, let alone compete with the Japanese army, and Leng Feng has just received the news that the national air force has suffered a big defeat, and the 17 II-15 destroyers of the 17th Air Force were surrounded by 24 fighters of the Japanese Second Flying Group in the sky near Lanfeng, and the two sides launched a fierce air battle, almost all of which were annihilated.

If it weren't for the extremely important Battle of Lanfeng, the Air Force might not have been dispatched, that is, when it was in Taierzhuang, the new 38th Division called for air force support.

In any other battle, it seems that calling for air support has not been considered, and no one has this concept in their minds, not to mention that the army and the air force are not the same arms, and the generals of the army cannot command the air force at all.

Air support, this is a luxury, you give it to you, you only have it, if you don't give it to you, you don't have to count on it.

"You make this plan first, and then I'll talk about it when I get to Xinxiang." Leng Feng suddenly commanded, isn't there three Japanese fighters at Tiexi Jinjiaying Airport in Xinxiang, one of which is a bomber, if it can be repaired, it should be usable.

The Japanese army should not be prepared for their own planes, and it is entirely possible that there will be a surprise attack when the time comes.

But there are several issues that must be addressed: first, whether the plane can be repaired in a short time; Second, there are no aerial bombs in the airport stockpile, if there are no them, there are alternative bombs, and third, whoever will drive it will not let him come, and he would like to do it again when he flies the plane, but the people below may not agree.

These will have to wait until he arrives in Xinxiang to be sure.
