Chapter 336: Operational Deployment
September 30, 1938, 6 p.m. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Ouyang led the entire 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army, according to the agreement with Commander-in-Chief Yu Hanmou, towards Tamsui Town, Huiyang County, Huizhou City.
Tamsui is located directly east of Guangzhou City, only 180 kilometers from Guangzhou, adjacent to Hong Kong and Shenzhen.
A 30-kilometre drive south from Tamsui Town will take you to Daya Bay.
In later generations, Tamsui Town was a well-known hometown of overseas Chinese in the country
On October 2, 1938, at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Ouyang and others finally arrived in Tamsui Town.
In addition to the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army, in other places in Huiyang County not far away, there are also nearly 10,000 troops of the 1st Division of the 12th Group Army, which is the 151st Division led by Lieutenant General Mohid.
Division Commander Mohid personally greeted Ouyang and his party in Tamsui Town.
"Brigade Commander Ou, Tamsui Town is the center of Huiyang County, and it is located in the hinterland of Guangdong Province, our main strategic defense area is the east and north of Tamsui Town, and now the eastern defense area will be handed over to you Di 512 Brigade."
East and North?
Ouyang nodded, smiling bitterly in his heart.
The direction of defense formulated by Division Commander Mohid is seriously wrong!
His deployment strategy only took into account the Japanese ~ local army, ignoring the Japanese army on the sea.
Historically, the Japanese army landed at Daya Bay, 30 kilometers south of Tamsui Town.
The reason why Division Commander Mohid made such a judgment was because he did not believe in the Japanese army and dared to attack Guangzhou at the risk of offending the British in the past one or two years, and this idea was also shared by the vast majority of the Nationalist ~ Army.
Ouyang didn't immediately explain all this to Mo Xide, mainly because the time was not right.
The Japanese army is about to attack Guangzhou, and the fewer people who know about it at this moment, the better, otherwise it is very likely that the Japanese army will attack in advance, which is extremely unfavorable to their strategy of defending Guangzhou.

On the evening of October 2, Tamsui Town.
Ouyang summoned all the commanders and fighters at and above the regimental level of all departments to the combat conference room to attend the meeting.
Wang Yaqiao, chief of staff, publicized the pre-formulated operational arrangements for various units.
"The 885th Regiment Zhou Weiguo Department is deployed in the eastern area of Tamsui Town."
"Yes, mission guaranteed!"
The head of the regiment, Zhou Weiguo, and the deputy head of the regiment, Kong Jie, stood up and responded, with a somewhat unnatural expression.
Seeing this, Ouyang laughed, knowing that the two of them had some complaints, after all, according to everyone's judgment, it was absolutely impossible for the Japanese army to attack from the east of Tamsui Town.
Ouyang emphasized: "Wei Guo, Kong Jie, don't complain, the next thing is a tough battle, a big battle that needs your regiment, and you must build the fortifications east of Tamsui Town for me to look decent, so that the outside world will not be suspicious." ”
Hearing Ouyang's words, Zhou Weiguo and Kong Jie felt a lot happier in their hearts.
Wang Yaoqiao then deployed for battle.
"Jiang Daya of the 886th Regiment, your task is to go out day and night, sleep during the day, work at night, and be sure to secretly build at least 20 defensive positions on the 30-kilometer-long road south of Tamsui Town to Daya Bay, and the time given to you is 7 days!"
Hearing this, the head of the regiment, Jiang Daya, and the deputy head of the regiment, Chen Feng, were all drawn down by old faces, and the old elders were elders.
The clandestine construction of as many as 20 fortifications in seven days, which could only be carried out at night, would undoubtedly be a huge amount of work.
It's almost impossible!
Ouyang said in a deep voice: "Jiang Daya, Chen Feng, I'll just ask you a word, can you complete it, if not, I will replace you immediately!" ”
That's it, it's useless to say more.
Immediately, Jiang Daya and Chen Feng immediately stood up and shouted: "Please rest assured, brigade commander, our whole regiment will be exhausted, and we will definitely complete the task!" ”
"Good!"
Ouyang's face was straight, and he said solemnly: "It's good to have confidence, what our brigade wants is this momentum, but Jiang Daya, you listen to me, within 7 days, if you can't complete the task, you see how I pick you up!" ”
"Chief of Staff, you continue."
Ouyang turned his head and said to Chief of Staff Wang Yaqiao again.
"Yang Zhihua of the Artillery Regiment and Li Yunlong of the Independent Regiment, your task is to avoid the National ~ Army tomorrow night, secretly go to the Daya Bay area, and wait for the orders of the brigade headquarters."
"Yes!"
Immediately, Yang Zhihua and Li Yunlong got up and answered.
For a while, Zhou Weiguo, Jiang Daya, Kong Jie and Chen Feng looked at Yang Zhihua and Li Yunlong, their eyes were full of envy and solemnity.
What they envy is that the independent regiment and the artillery regiment will be the main force in this fight against the Japanese landing force, and for their soldiers, it is a supreme honor to go into battle to kill the enemy as the main force, even if they die on the battlefield.
As for the solemn eyes, they are worried about them, according to everyone's inference, the Japanese army they will face this time is not a wing, a brigade, but a Japanese army above a division!
The difficulty of its combat will be very huge, and one mistake will be the risk of annihilation of the entire army.
The 512th Brigade believes in the principle of honor and exploits, but sacrifice and dedication!
For a time, the three main regiments and the artillery regiment all received the task, and only the Wolf Tooth Brigade and a few companies directly under the brigade headquarters were still on standby.
The captain of the Wolf Tooth Brigade was tall and tall, sitting upright, waiting for Ouyang's order.
"Old Gao!"
Ouyang said in a deep voice: "Your Wolf Tooth Special Brigade, from today onwards, you will temporarily draw out a force of 40 people to form a wolf battle detachment, with Long Xiaoyun as the squadron leader. ”
Hearing this, the dog-headed old man was dumbfounded!
What I was waiting for was not a task, it was an order to split, and I couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.
At the moment, how could Ouyang not know the mind of the dog-headed old man, and he could also understand his mood at the moment, and draw out part of his troops to form a wolf squadron.
It's like cutting a piece of flesh from him, how can he not feel distressed?
In the end, Ouyang's decision was to lead Xiao Zhuang to lead the lone wolf group B, and all of them were incorporated into the newly formed wolf squadron.
Immediately afterwards, Ouyang gave Long Xiaoyun another order: "The task of your wolf squadron is to snatch the military supplies from the Yau Ma Tei warehouse in Foshan and secretly transport them to Daya Bay!" ”
"Yes!" Long Xiaoyun got up and answered.
Then Ouyang asked her again, this matter must be carried out in secret, so that the gods do not know it.
After all, the Yau Ma Tei warehouse is the munitions warehouse of the 12th Group Army, and Ouyang led his troops to rob it, once it is exposed, the impact will be great!
"Old Gao!" Ouyang said in a deep voice.
"In!" The dog-headed old man replied firmly.
"Your wolf tooth brigade, this time will be the eyes of the whole brigade, give me all the out, secretly lurk in the 18th Division of the Japanese army in the Fuzhou area, and convey the latest information to the brigade headquarters at any time."
"Yes!" Lao Gao said.

Early the next morning, at the gate of the barracks in Tamsui Town, Ouyang bid farewell to political commissars Zhao Gang, Dai Tianli and Ye Cunxin here.
"Have a nice trip!"
Ouyang held Zhao Gang's hands tightly, his expression full of reluctance.
The destination of Zhao Gang's trip was Hainan, looking for the Hainan People's Self-Defense Army led by Cai Yi, who had been exposed by the system, and asked for their help.
Zhao Gang is the political commissar of the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army, and he is cautious, calm, and courageous, and is most suitable for contacting General Cai Yi.
But their trip is also full of difficulties, and if they are not careful, they may never come back!
