Section XXVIII

Feeling the inquiring gaze of the battalion commander Ji Hongru, the stone couldn't help but smile helplessly on the side, this official is really not good, in the afternoon he saw the regiment commander and they came, he also secretly let out a long breath, on the one hand, the arrival of friendly troops so that they no longer need to fight alone, on the other hand, there is a regiment commander under their command, how to fight this battle, how to arrange the tedious things, and finally no longer need to be pressed on his shoulders alone, but now it is good, the genius has just darkened, and the trouble seems to have to fall on his shoulders again.

Shi looked at Ji Hongru and looked like he would never say anything without waiting for him to speak, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "Tuanzao, I have no opinion, how do you say how to fight, our battalion will never have a second word." ”

Ji Hongru shook his head lightly and said: "Stone, you are now attached to the 302nd regiment, and you should not be limited to one battalion when considering the problem, you have to consider the actions of the whole regiment as a whole!" ”

Lin Xiufeng on the side also said with a smile: "The regiment is right, the regiment is the largest officer in our 302 regiment except for the regiment commander, and he should take on the responsibility of commanding the whole regiment, and the battalion led by the regiment also fought several battles with the devils last night, in terms of familiarity with the devils in front of him, not only our regiment, but also the whole division is unmatched. ”

"I have this little bit of crude knowledge, how dare I show ugliness in front of the group seat, last night's battle, that is, good luck, until the battle is over, I don't dare to think about what I can take advantage of." The stone smiled bitterly again.

Ji Hongru's face suddenly became serious, looking at the stone, he said in a deep voice: "This is not a banquet and wine, and passing the buck to each other is joking with the lives of thousands of brothers in the whole group, are you willing to see those brothers go to death in vain because of some of your personal ideas?" ”

Listening to what the regiment commander said, Hu Liqun on the side suddenly couldn't sit still, although the regiment commander didn't say anything to him directly, but from the tone, it was obvious that he was dissatisfied with what he said about the night attack strategy.

Listening to the tone of the head of the group, Shi also knew that he could no longer shirk it, so he could only apologize and glanced at the restless Hu Liqun and said: "Since the group seat said so, then I will talk about my shallow opinion, if there is anything inappropriate, I hope to forgive me." I think what Battalion Commander Qu said is right, Battalion Commander Hu's plan for a night attack is indeed a bit too risky. ”

Ji Hongru's face softened when he heard this, nodded and said: "Tell me your opinion, discuss the strategy on the spot, it should be brainstorming, it doesn't matter whether it's right or wrong." ”

After the stone spoke, it seemed to let go, he groaned for a while, and then unceremoniously walked to the map hanging on the side, stretched out his hand and pointed to the map by the dim kerosene lamp and said: "Tuanzao, now our troops on the front line of Loess Mountain are two regiments, three or four thousand people lined up, across the road from Yongcheng to Dangshan, plus the 153 Brigade in Xiayi, which is basically the same as the Japanese army in Yongcheng in terms of strength, in this case, if the Japanese army only attacks our position with the strength of one wing, It doesn't play much role at all, it is impossible to break through our defense line with this little force, if the Japanese army in Yongcheng pours in, then Yongcheng will suffer from the onslaught of the 153 Brigade, at that time, the two armies are fighting for the speed of attack, if the Japanese army can break through our position before Yongcheng is breached, once their offensive is blocked, and Yongcheng is captured by our army, the Japanese army in this area will be completely surrounded, even if it can escape, it will definitely be greatly damaged. Therefore, I think that there is no rush to attack at the moment, and in the case of equal forces, whoever can calm down will have the advantage. ”

Lin Xiufeng, who was on the side, stretched out his hand and pulled out the wick and asked puzzledly: "Stone, do you mean that we are going to spend it with the devil here?" ”

Shi nodded without hesitation and said: "I have always disagreed with the devil's fighting style, the devil has heavy artillery and aircraft, and using tanks to open the way in an open area can also cause us great trouble, but according to the situation analyzed by the regiment before the battle, it is the most appropriate tactic to choose to defend now." At present, our task is mainly to cover the main force of the Fifth Theater stationed in the vicinity of Xuzhou and prevent the enemy from cutting off the retreat of friendly forces, so the most important thing is to ensure the safety of Dangshan Shangqiu and other places. ”

Hu Liqun also had some opinions on the stone before, thinking that he was not enterprising after winning the battle, and he was unwilling to take any more risks, but now listening to his analysis, he couldn't help but look at the unsurprising guy in front of him twice, how he looked at the stone This kid is no different from before, how to analyze the military situation one after another seems to be quite a bit of a doorway, and he is not just an analysis of the battle situation of a regiment in front of him, this posture has been extended to a division to an army, This kid usually looks honest, why does he still have these things in his head.

At this time, Ji Hongru nodded and said: "Yes, the stone can be promoted from a small soldier to a regiment in just over half a year, it is really not a fluke, the overall situation is so thoroughly considered, it is really very rare, it seems that I was also derelict in my duty before, and we in the 302nd regiment have such talents." ”

Shi was suddenly ashamed and said: "The head of the regiment said that I was laughing, I was just thinking nonsense by myself, right or wrong, I don't have a score in my heart." ”

Ji Hongru patted him on the shoulder and encouraged: "As a commander, you must dare to think and dare to fight, your analysis of what you just said is really wonderful, I just took into account that the Japanese army will not make such a mistake again after being attacked, but I didn't think so long-term, the ancients had a cloud, 'If you don't think about winning, you will lose first.'" Only by keeping the terrible consequences of defeat in mind at all times can one keep a clear head and not be deceived by the temptation of the moment." ”

"Shi Tuanfu seems to be a real person who doesn't show his face, but he actually thinks about it so long-term, it seems that the division is really discerning and talented." Lin Xiufeng on the side couldn't help but praise loudly, obviously the performance of the stone just now was also greatly beyond his expectations.

Shi was suddenly embarrassed and didn't know what to say, so he could only giggle, and several other people on the side also chuckled, obviously agreeing with Lin Xiufeng's statement.

"Xiufeng, don't patronize the jokes about stones, tell me your opinion, do you have any different opinions about the current situation?" Ji Hongru interrupted the conversation and laughter between them and asked with a serious face.

Seeing this, Lin Xiufeng also straightened up seriously and said: "Tuanzuo, I agree with Shi Tuanfu's opinion, at the moment, our army has not eaten the strength of the enemy army in Yongcheng in one bite, even if it hurts the Japanese army in front of the mountain, it will not make any difference to the battle situation in front of him, in this case, it is better to stay in the position and wait patiently for the other party to expose his weaknesses before making plans." ”

Ji Hongru nodded, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on Hu Liqun on the side, which made the commander of the second battalion, who had always been very arrogant, also grinned and said: "Since several officers and commanders have said so, then our second battalion must also obey the orders of the regiment headquarters, defend the Loess Mountain, and never dare to make the slightest rash move." ”

"In this case, let's stop here for tonight's military discussion, the enemy is present, you must not slack off in the slightest, as for the night garrison, you must urge your brothers to be vigilant, so as not to give the Japanese army an opportunity to take advantage of." Ji Hongru immediately said carefully.

"Don't worry, as long as the devils dare to come, they will definitely not be able to eat and walk around!" After Hu Liqun saluted a military salute, he immediately said arrogantly.

And Shi and Qu Yuben didn't say much, and after saluting, they all left this humble regimental headquarters and rushed straight to their respective positions.

Hu Liqun's plan for a surprise attack was denied, which did not discourage his enthusiasm, on the contrary, he did not have a moment of rest at all on the top of the mountain, and urged his brothers to work hard and busy from time to time, and seize the time to build one protection after another.

However, what made Hu Liqun almost crazy was that he waited for seven or eight days, and in such a long time, although the devil in front of the mountain did not leave, he did not even launch an attack, which made Hu Liqun want to rush to the devil and scold, wanting to ask them what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd?

For this kind of calm after the war, Shi and others are quite enjoyable, although there are many veterans in the first battalion, but there are also a lot of recruits, the repeated bloody battles and the second offensive and defensive battles that night obviously let those recruits have really seen the bloody and cruel battlefield, in this way, supplemented by targeted battlefield training, as long as they are given a period of time, these recruits can gradually adapt to the battlefield.

Such a peaceful life was broken until May 18, and with the order to retreat, the entire Loess Mountain fell into curses and a lot of confusion, and whoever had been here for ten days, ready to fight with the devil, suddenly had to follow the order and leave without a fight, just like a person who punched hard, but smashed into the air, so that they had an indescribable discomfort all over their bodies.

But complaining is complaining, when they saw the mighty friendly troops rushing from the direction of Dangshan, the full stomach of complaints also swallowed helplessly, because they knew that all this could not be changed, and the movement of troops was not a joke, and there could not be the slightest mistake, especially when the enemy was eyeing him.
