As the garrison commander of Yixing, this Shao Zuo is simply the soil emperor of Yixing, the key is that no one cares about him yet, regardless of whether it is murder or fire prevention, or even robbing women, no one cares, except for the Chinese people who are crying and shouting to the sky.

"Click"

The wine glass in his hand fell to the floor with the report of the special high school officer, and the unique Chinese ceramic wine glass should be shattered, and the squadron leader Shaozuo stood up, ignoring his beloved sake scattered on the ground.

"In this way, the Chinese will attack Yixing as soon as tonight"

Shao Zuo asked anxiously.

"I'm afraid so, Your Excellency Shaozuo."

The officer nodded, the point was that now he didn't know where the Chinese army was hiding, and there was no way to determine the time when the Chinese army would attack Yixing.

"Baga, order all the soldiers to go up to the city wall and prepare for battle."

Officer Shaozo opened the door and shouted outside.

There was no way, he had too few troops in his hands, only more than two hundred people, and he was still one squad away from a full squadron.

"Doodoo"

The terrible copper whistle sounded, and a daytime devil hurriedly rushed out of the barracks and urgently assembled.

"A small detachment at each city gate, fully on alert, and the rest of the people are assembled under the city walls and stand by, tonight, the Chinese army may attack here."

The squadron leader of Shaozuo gave the order in a hurry, and the grassroots officers of the devil shouted, and the garrison squadron of more than 200 people went away in the sound of clattering footsteps.

"Request tactical guidance from the Brigade Headquarters and Wing Headquarters."

The young officer ordered his own signal corps.

"Your Excellency, there are no Chinese troops attacking here right now, are you sure to ask for tactical guidance now"

The communications soldier looked at his commander with a puzzled expression.

"Then send this to the wing headquarters, and finally add that according to the inference, the Chinese army will attack Yixing as soon as tonight, let them decide for themselves"

Officer Shao Zuo finally recovered from the panic, and he decided to put this pot on the head of the special high school if the Chinese army did not come, while the defense was tightly arranged.

The devils in Yixing are urgently assembling, and what is the 62nd Regiment doing, they are still holding a combat meeting.

Because of the first large-scale attack, Yin Zuogan didn't want the strong 62nd Regiment to do nothing, and more importantly, he couldn't lose too much, which was very difficult.

"For a distance of more than fifty kilometers, it is necessary to march continuously for more than twelve hours before launching an attack, and counting the rest and attack time, we need at least sixteen hours; What do you guys think?"

After Yin Zuogan finished introducing the news brought back by the scouts, he asked his officers.

Why does it take 16 hours, don't think that you can start attacking when you get to the place, marching more than 50 kilometers in a row, the troops must be very tired, they must rest and recuperate, replenish their bodies with food and water, and then attack, this is the correct way to start the war.

No one spoke, including Feng Ng, although Feng Que was very worried about the concealment of his actions, but if he said it at this time, he would seriously distrust the friendly forces and would be ostracized by everyone.

"Sixteen hours, if we want to attack before dawn, we must set off in the afternoon, so that a large part of our trip will be exposed to the wilderness, will the devils detect it in advance"

The commander of the first battalion raised his doubts.

"The scouts have already seen along the way, the towns on the road have not yet had time to occupy, the power of the devils has not yet reached the countryside, this is the land of the Chinese, fight the devils, I believe that the hearts of the people are towards us, and will not report to the devils."

Yin Zuogan shook his head and signaled the first battalion commander not to worry.

"If there is no problem with everyone, go back and do a good job of pre-war mobilization, set off tomorrow after lunch, and attack Yixing in the early morning of the day after tomorrow."

Yin Zuogan stood up and announced the end of this combat meeting, and as for the tasks of each battalion and company, they would naturally be issued before departure.

The position of the 62nd Regiment was in Dingshan Ridge, and Yin Zuogan's plan was to march south during the day, march eastward, walk through this mountainous and forest area, and take advantage of the dusk to cross Xizhu and attack Yixing through Luohan Ridge.

From Lake Ximu to Luohan Ridge, this is a mountainous and hilly area with lush vegetation, which is perfect for concealing the whereabouts of large troops.

"The order was given, the first battalion was responsible for the main attack, responsible for capturing the south gate, the second battalion was responsible for covering the attack, and the troops were divided into six ways to harass the other city gates; Our three battalions are responsible for perimeter vigilance, with a focus on facing north to guard against devils who may be supported from Changzhou and Wuxi. ”

The battalion commander Zhang Youfa brought back the latest order and announced it to the three company commanders.

"How far to the north," Feng asked.

"At least eight hundred meters, if the devil comes too fast, buy enough time for the retreat of the main force."

Zhang Youfa replied.

"Then we have to go at least two kilometers more, and we should set off early or follow the large army"

The second company commander asked.

"We set off early, so we didn't have to wait for the big troops; The first company is responsible for guarding the north, and the second company occupies Longbei Mountain and guards the direction of West Lake; Feng Yi, you even reconnoiter and guard to the south to prevent the devils in Changxing from reinforcing them, although the devils stationed in Changxing have less than a squadron, they may also quickly support Yixing by road. ”

Zhang Youfa gestured on the map and assigned tasks to the three companies, and he was still a little unhappy that their battalion did not catch the attack mission for this attack.

"Hey, we can only watch them eat meat, we may not even be able to drink soup, go and prepare, let's leave in ten minutes."

Zhang Youfa was not interested at all, but this did not prevent him from demanding the troops, the combat materials that should be carried must still be carried, and anything could happen on the battlefield.

Just after lunch, the other troops were still resting, and the third battalion was already on the road under the leadership of Zhang Youfa.

When the brothers of the third battalion passed through the mountainous and forested area south of Xizhu, it was not yet dark, and the setting sun was still exuding its own afterglow.

In the hills and mountains of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there were few rough and difficult roads, which made the marching pains less painful for the brothers.

"Huhuhuhu"

Carrying a large amount of ammunition and dry rations on their backs, the brethren marched in the cold dusk of early spring, and gradually began to breathe heavily, and they had been walking rapidly for more than five hours in a row.

"Take a fifteen-minute break and drink some water."

Looking at the sky, Zhang Youfa gave an order, the next resting point was Luohan Ridge, and they had enough time to arrive.

"Battalion commander, our company is directly south of Luohan Ridge and stationed at Shilongding, I want to take the brothers of the third company to go first, go early and prepare early."

Feng Yi walked to Zhang Youfa's side to report his thoughts.

"Okay, but you don't have to be so daring, our footsteps are not slow, and it will take at least an hour for the main force to catch up with us."

Zhang Youfa persuaded Feng Yi.

"I'd like to go see it first."

Feng Yi has always been a little unsteady in his heart, and he doesn't know if it is the fear of stepping on the battlefield again or whether there is something in the dark to guide him.

"Let's go, when you arrive, send someone to Longbei Mountain to report the situation."

Zhang Youfa cautiously reminded Feng Ye and agreed that Feng Ye would go first.
