Section XI Final Arrangements

"The stones are all arranged, and they can go at any time." Watching Hu Liqun leave with Camp Commander Wang of the Sichuan Barracks, Liu Wenfeng, who had been waiting for a long time, rushed over and whispered in his ear.

Shi nodded, did not make a sound, his eyes kept staring at Hu Liqun who was leaving down the hillside, watching him limp down the hillside with difficulty, and couldn't help but feel a sense of desolation, and that sad atmosphere suddenly permeated the surrounding mountains.

Liu Wenfeng obviously felt the emotional fluctuations of the stone, and couldn't help but ask a little eagerly: "What's wrong with the stone, the situation has changed?" Or did Hu Liqun say something? ”

Shi shook his head, just sighed, but there was an inexplicable pain in his heart, this time he actually wanted to design the brothers in his own group, he actually wanted to point the gun at his own people, those blood-stained hands, this time it was actually his brother's blood, thinking of this, it made him feel a kind of heart-wrenching pain in his heart.

"Regiment leader, they are unkind first, we are also forced to be helpless, think about it, they actually want to take the lives of the brothers in the regiment as a stepping stone for their promotion, this battle is defeated, how many people will die in our regiment? Thousand? Two thousand? If you don't get it right, it's all gone, stone! Liu Wenfeng obviously guessed something, and couldn't help but say loudly.

Shi closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then said with a tired look: "How is my sister-in-law?" ”

"My sister-in-law insists on acting with us, and judging by her appearance, she will never stay alone." While Liu Wenfeng breathed a sigh of relief, he also said a little helplessly.

"Take her with you, you were right last night, since I promised Camp Commander Zheng, I will do my best to protect my sister-in-law, as long as I still have a breath of air, I will never let my sister-in-law suffer any harm, as long as the old brother of the third company is still alive, I will never allow my sister-in-law to be hurt in the slightest." The stone said resolutely, there was no room for negotiation.

"That's it, I'm going to prepare the horse gear for my sister-in-law, when are we leaving?" Liu Wenfeng knew that there was no choice in this matter, so he replied simply.

"Let the brothers hurry up and rest, and when Zhang Donkey's reconnaissance company comes back, we will immediately follow the actions agreed upon last night, this battle, we must not only fight, but also fight cleanly, as long as we can create an opportunity to attack Ruichang, we will be invincible." The sad aura on the stone gradually disappeared, and the grim reality made him regain his fierce murderous aura, and the whole person was like a war knife that might be unsheathed at any time, making people dare not face it.

And Liu Wenfeng saw the stone with such an expression, but he breathed a long breath, and the worry in his heart disappeared instantly, at this time when the life and death of all the brothers were at stake, if the stone could not be decided immediately, the consequences would be worrying, and the fear was that the stone did not have murderous spirit and did not have the courage to raise the butcher's knife.

Hu Liqun said before is right, Minshan is indeed a good place for garrison, in a flat land surrounded by mountains, there is actually a natural reservoir of the size of a li, the lush grass in the wilderness on the shore, it is an unexpected surprise, a look at the situation here, Liu Taiping, the captain and staff officer who is temporarily in charge of the cavalry company, did not hesitate to choose this place as the station, although Liu Taiping's temper is extremely hot, stubborn no one's account is bought, but it is undeniable that this captain has an extremely professional cavalry combat theory, has a profound knowledge of operations, which is also the capital of his temper to become a captain officer.

After arranging the tasks of the second and third battalions, Shi rushed here and specially gathered the officers of the first battalion together to discuss the next plan of action.

Last night's time was too rushed, especially after his sister-in-law's trouble, he spent a long time thinking about some things, so until now, the only people who knew his plan were Liu Wenfeng and Gao Da Hammer, looking at the people in front of him who were slightly excited, the stone was a little helpless, he couldn't help but think of his previous self, that kind of ignorance, just like the people in front of him, he was still happy to call people with guns, in fact, he really wanted to know nothing, sooner or later he would die, Sometimes it's not a beautiful thing to die in a daze, knowing too many things, but being powerless to change your fate, this is the saddest situation. However, the situation has changed, his identity has changed, and he can never go back to the way he was.

His eyes fell on Liu Taiping's arrogant face, and the stone couldn't help but groan, this matter was too critical, and he didn't want anyone outside the battalion to know, but there was no way, the core of this battle was the cavalry, and the only one who knew how to fight on horseback was Staff Officer Liu in front of him, and he couldn't get around it at all, after thinking about it, Shi finally spoke: "Staff Officer Liu, today's matter is related to the lives of the brothers in the whole regiment, and it is related to the success or failure of the first battle in Ruichang. ”

Seeing that the regiment commander changed from his usual approachable appearance to become murderous, Liu Taiping also nodded seriously, his temper was a little stubborn, but he was not stupid, he naturally knew what to do and what not to do.

Shi then looked at the people beside him, Liu Wenfeng, Gao Da Hammer, Hu Zi, Li Wenguang, Xiao Shandong, Zhao Yidao, Cheng Zhong and other more than a dozen officers, the water blocked around, and this familiar face also moved Shi Shi's heart, this is the brother who can really be trusted, and the brother who was born and died with him and experienced the test of bloody battles.

"The target of this battle is Ruichang, this, you must already know, according to the news we inquired, the Ruichang area is now garrisoned by the 6th Pioneer Brigade of the 9th Division of the Japanese Army, with a number of about 5,000, distributed in Baiyang, Dingjiashan and other places, but we still don't know anything about the specific troop layout and defense line arrangement, but even if the Japanese army only arranges a wing in Ruichang, the difficulty of its attack should be imaginable." The stone looked at the crowd and said slowly.

Everyone's faces became extremely solemn, because of the excitement and joy of the battle, this moment was also scattered by the arduous task in front of them, fortunately, they were also soldiers who were killed by the sea of swords and fires, and they had experienced countless tests of death moments, and one by one they became nervous.

Their reaction made Shi nod his head, and then said: "Face-to-face hard fighting, not to mention that we don't have the slightest chance of winning, I will never do this kind of life-for-life thing, so before fighting Ruichang, we have to find a way to lure the devil out." As he spoke, Shi Shi said the idea of attacking Changshan, and said and explained his judgment that the devil's grain route was in the north of Minshan, along the line from the city gate to Changshan.

Different from the scene that day when Hu Liqun and others had different views, when the stone said this, no one said anything at all, and the people around him were like clay sculptures, without the slightest reaction.

On the contrary, this made the stone a little unaccustomed, and he couldn't help but look at the beard and asked, "Beard, do you have any views and ideas?" ”

Hu Zi looked calm, and said seriously: "Tuanza, I am now the commander of the regimental headquarters, and my task is to guard the regimental headquarters arrangement, ensure the living and dietary conditions of the regimental seat and the regimental annex, as for how to fight, it is none of my business." ”

Shi was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but look at the tall sledgehammer with a wry smile, this guy usually doesn't say a word, but no one knows that he has done so many things, which makes Shi Fang extremely grateful, if it weren't for his arrangement, I'm afraid he would still be kept in the dark now, until he was sold.

But the tall sledgehammer didn't react, and even snorted coldly, maintaining his usual attitude of rejecting people from thousands of miles away, which even made Stone wonder if those things were really done by him.

Li Wenguang couldn't help it, he looked at the appearance of the stone, and couldn't help but say: "Regiment leader, just say it, where you say to fight, we will fight, it was like this before, it is like this now, and it will be like this in the future." ”

Zhao Yidao also said: "Yes, yes, what the little monkey said is right, we don't understand the war, the regiment commander, you can just give an order, this is going around, your head will be dizzy." ”

The stone couldn't help but smile bitterly, and everyone was also laughing, they were used to being with each other casually, they all knew that the two of them were the masters who had no mouth, and they were so troubled, this tense pre-war atmosphere also disappeared for the most part, and the sky fell down with a high roof, where the dead and where to bury, there is really nothing to be afraid of.

While the stone smiled bitterly, his heart was moved, and after thinking about it, he coughed lightly and said: "I discussed with the madman and the sledgehammer before, and I plan to take the initiative to attack the devil and give it a hard blow, only if the devil hurts, they will turn around and hit us, so that we can have a chance." ”

Everyone stopped laughing, listened quietly to the stone again, and knew that the next step was the focus of the battle, which was a major matter related to everyone's lives, the stone took a deep breath, looked at everyone seriously, and then said: "In this battle, we only have one regiment, and the position here in Minshan cannot be lost, so my idea is to let the second and third battalions stay behind, and the supplementary battalion will transport the baggage in the rear, and I will personally take the first battalion, the regimental headquarters company, and the reconnaissance company to attack." ”

Hu Zi frowned slightly, and asked in a low voice: "Regiment Commander, our people alone are already a little weak, if we divide the troops, is it too risky, there are too few people, and the effect can be limited, if you want to lure the devil out, you must also have the strength to attract the devil, otherwise how can the devil be fooled?" ”

Li Wenguang was also puzzled and asked, "Why did the second and third battalions stay?" Isn't that second battalion commander arrogant? He himself thinks that he can do it, and this battle will be better for him to fight. ”

As soon as it came to the matter of staying behind, everyone immediately talked about it, and they obviously heard about the arrogance of the commander of the second battalion before, and they obviously complained about the situation they stayed behind.

And at this moment, Liu Wenfeng suddenly stood up and looked into the distance with burning eyes.
