As soon as Yang Xiaolin finished speaking, Feng Delin's brows were twisted together: "Xiaolin, the combat effectiveness of the Third Division is very strong, and the Japanese on the left and right can provide them with support, if we choose the Third Division, it is likely that we will have to face the entire Japanese Second Army." Isn't that a bit too risky? ”

As soon as he said this, the people around him agreed. Commander Yang's combat strategy has always been to avoid reality and make up for fiction, but judging from the current situation, the Third Division is a hard walnut, and it really hurts to smash him.

Including Cai Ye felt that this was a little inappropriate: "Commander, the combat effectiveness of the Japanese reserve eighth division is relatively weak, and the strength is also the least of the three routes, I think it is most appropriate to fight him, we can kill it before the arrival of Japanese reinforcements, and easily complete the combat goal of annihilating a Japanese division." Also, after taking out the 8th Division, we can successfully cut off the front of the Japanese Second Army and the Third Army. ”

Yang Xiaolin smiled and waved his hand: "No!" Just hit the 3rd Division! ”

Cai Ye seemed to want to say something, but Yang Xiaolin threw a look at him, signaling Cai Ye to stop talking, he had made up his mind.

In the army, Commander Yang is a dictator, and after Cai Yi understood it, he no longer wanted him to change his opinion, and stood up: "If we want to fight the third division, then the Japanese troops on the left and right must consider that they need to send a strong blocking force." ”

Yang Xiaolin nodded, and his eyes fell on Li Debiao, who was sitting on the side. Biaozi's expression immediately changed: "Commander, don't look at me!" You know the combat effectiveness of our troops, and I am fit to charge! I think Qian Yao is the most suitable for this blocking task, and their division is the best at positional warfare! ”

Qian Yao on the side threw the cup on the table and was about to scold Li Debiao, Yang Xiaolin waved his hand to make Qian Yao not excited, and smiled slightly: "Biaozi, this time you go, no one else can!" ”

Li Debiao's expression suddenly became annoyed, but he didn't say anything more.

Yang Xiaolin said: "I let you go for a reason. You go and block the Japanese on the left. Your mission is not only to stop the Japanese 4th and 6th divisions, but also to keep them out of the battlefield! After we take out the 3rd Division, the next target is them! ”

Cai Yi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his eyes were full of surprise when he looked at Yang Xiaolin! Yang Xiaolin said before the war that he would fight the Japanese Second Army, and Cai Yi thought that he would do it step by step. But I didn't expect Commander Yang to finish his work in one battle!

He kind of understood that Commander Yang had to hit the Japanese army in the middle.

Storm the opponent's strongest mid lane, and then lose contact with the Japanese troops on the left and right! The sixth, fourth, and second divisions will be in an isolated situation, and no one will be able to save them!

Even if the Japanese troops killed from Korea forcibly intervene in the battle, the distance can open up space. As many miles as they go, the Volunteers have as many opportunities to ambush them.

The stakes are high, but so are the profits!

The key is the third division of the Japanese army, successfully kill him, the fourth and sixth divisions can't run, and the small Japanese second army is also finished. If it can't be killed, the 3rd Division will hold out until reinforcements come, and the Volunteers will be heavily surrounded by the enemy.

"There are 40,000 people on the left side of the Japanese army, and you only have one division. When we surround the 3rd Division, you have to make sure that they don't get over there alone! When we get our hands on it. You also have to make sure that you can bite them to the death and don't let them run away! Li Debiao, can you do it? ”

Li Debiao also understood how big Commander Yang's dish was fried at this time, and he immediately stood up: "Yes!" Rest assured, Commander. I'm definitely not going to let them run! ”

Yang Xiaolin nodded: "Okay!" Get ready for battle now! Tomorrow, we will try in Xiuyan how hard this walnut of the Japanese Third Army is! ”

The emotions of the brothers were also a little excited, and they suddenly set their eyes on the three Japanese divisions, and it was the first time that such a battle was fought by the volunteers.

Yang Xiaolin looked at them. The corners of his mouth smiled slightly: "How is it?" A little nervous and a little excited, isn't it? I tell you I am too! This battle is like a gamble, and our capital is far less than that of the Eight-Nation Alliance. Troops, materiel. I can't compare with others! Slowly consume us, we are no opponents. ”

His hand clenched into a fist and slammed it the table: "So I have to fight!" Lao Tzu wants to punch this Matsumura to death! Have you had the confidence? ”

"Yes!"

The brothers replied very loudly, and the smile on Commander Yang's face slowly bloomed, and he nodded and slowed down his tone: "Very good!" The Japanese army is 100,000 and we are 90,000, not counting the later period if the Japanese army in Korea intervenes in the battle. This is like a poor ghost who takes the money from the sale of the house to the gambling table and bets with the dealer, although he has a lot of money in his heart, there is no reason to get the money back! ”

Yang Xiaolin's analogy is very vivid and appropriate. He pressed all his gambling money in the first battle, that is, sold his house. If you lose, the consequences are unimaginable. But he believes that he can't lose, because he believes in his brother! He believed that his brothers in the Volunteers understood that they were fighting in Weishenme!

"After the battle was launched, I asked every division commander, brigade commander, and even battalion commander and company commander to have the ability to adapt to changes! Spot the fighter plane to act immediately and decisively! Don't be afraid to make mistakes, don't be afraid of enemy traps! And don't wait for our instructions in return, when our general policy conflicts with your own ideas, I want you to speak out to us, understand? ”

"Got it!"

After Commander Yang finished speaking, his eyes looked at Kong on the ground, and his voice suddenly became softer: "Staff Officer Kong, give the soldiers of the army some more food at night." After all, it's a small year today. ”

Kong Landing's ass got up when he heard that he was going to add food, thinking about crying, but sat down again. He really didn't notice that today was actually a small year in the lunar calendar, thinking that the soldiers were going to start a hard battle tomorrow, Kong landed and pouted a few times, and finally said: "Okay, send out some meat, dumplings, and stewed cabbage tonight." ”

In the Chinese concept, the Chinese New Year is a very important event, which means the reunion of the whole family. Many people who drift in foreign lands, even if they are not satisfied, at this time, even if they borrow money, they have to buy a new clothes to go home.

The people of the Northeast have not been stable this year, and the soldiers will not be able to return home. Take care of it a little. It's really not too much to let the fighters eat dumplings.

Kong landed just as he agreed, and Tai Wangu brought in a document from outside: "Commander, Nyerere, please take a look." ”

After Yang Xiaolin received the telegram, there was a slight smile on his face, two good news, the first is that Shanghai bought a batch of Western medicine for the volunteers, and Du Yuesheng is trying to find a way to send it. Second, Wang Yaqiao has arrived in Kulun, and everything is going well.

After reading it, he put the document down: "All units are ready for battle!" Don't think about what to hide anymore, put on a jiashi. The troops in charge of interspersing must boldly plunge into the enemy's depth! In two days, isolate his mid-lane! ”

The Third Division was the old main force of the Japanese army, and its soldiers were composed of poor Japanese poor children, and their combat courage could be compared with that of the original Guards Division of the First Army. Division Commander Rong Ben Shengjia is 47 years old this year, and he is in the prime of a commander's life. From the speed of the advance of the third division, you can see how strong this guy's desire to fight is.

At just five o'clock in the morning, Eimoto Shengjia ordered the troops to get up immediately and continue the march, and by the time the sky was overcast, the vanguard of the Japanese army in the middle had already reached Suzigou.

Standing on top of a low mountain beam. Looking at the troops marching below, Rong Ben Shengjia was in a very comfortable mood. The Japanese staff officer ran up at this time: "Report to the division commander, the distance between our troops and friendly and neighboring troops has exceeded the distance specified by the commander, do you think the speed of the march should be controlled?" ”

A trace of unhappiness appeared on Rong Ben Shengjia's face: "It's not that we're fast, it's that they're too slow!" Since ancient times, soldiers have been fast. How can you stop and wait for them? Immediately send a telegram to the commander, asking the friendly troops to speed up the march and be sure to keep a proper distance from our troops. ”

The staff officer of the Japanese army looked a little hesitant, and Eimoto was a little too unkind to say this. But he didn't say anything. Domineering people need capital, and in the Second Army, the Third Division does have this capital.

"Yes!"

Eimoto's head was raised high. Looking at the sun rising from the sky: "Our speed must be a little faster, our third division must become the first unit to enter Liaoping!" Tell the soldiers that after entering Liaoping, there will be no military discipline for two days. ”

The staff officer is too clear what this order means, this order will inevitably boost the morale of the entire army, and when he was thinking about conveying it, a Japanese soldier in front of him ran over quickly: "Report to the division commander, the third wing of the first cavalry brigade found that there are armed liliang activities around us, the number is unknown, and the specific situation is being investigated." ”

Eiben Shengjia was not aware of the danger at this time, because he could not believe that the Volunteers would make him the target of siege. He thought it was just militia in those places, and at best it was a small-scale blocking or harassment force.

However, he still maintained the vigilance that a commander should have, and did not careless at all: "Order the reconnaissance range to be expanded by five kilometers, and the soldiers are ready for battle." ”

"Hello!"

The herald went immediately, and the marching team below also stopped, and formed a battle formation. Rong Ben Shengjia was very satisfied with the speed of the reaction of the various troops, put down the binoculars and said to the staff officer: "I hope this time there will be no more so-called militia of the Zhi Na people, those guys are really annoying!" If it weren't for the speed at which I needed to march, I would have to punish them well. ”

The militia is really annoying, they don't fight with you, they shoot next to you when you rest, they plant mines in front of you when you advance, and occasionally a few daring ones will try to sneak up on you!

If you set up a position to fight them, they will turn around and run, and they will not have any sense of fighting at all. Their familiarity with the terrain and the help of the tunnels are usually not enough for you to keep up.

Even if you are caught, you will only be able to eliminate the militia in this one place. The militia is very territorial, when you pass through this township, it is the militia here who harass you, and they don't chase you if you want to leave, and there are militias waiting for you in the next township.

In the past two days, Rongben has been harassed many times, at first he fought back and chased it, but now he is also used to being harassed, anyway, these guys don't dare to rush over, just put a burst of machine guns when they see them, they will definitely run.

The Japanese soldiers were also accustomed to it, and although the formation was in battle formation, the luggage was still on their backs. Little Japan did not have the kind of carrying equipment of the volunteers in this era, this package was prepared by themselves, there is a bag, there are several, go down for a while and then carry it, trouble!

Just when they all thought it was the militia, the scouts in front came with a message: "Report to the commander of the division!" The Chinese troops in front are the troops of the 13th Brigade of the 4th Division of the Volunteers! They have already built fortifications on the opposite side with the intention of preventing our troops from advancing. Hayakawa Brigade Commander, please advise you on your next move!
