Chapter 1432: The two sides prepare for battle
However, Wang Zanbin, as the commander of the 44th Division of the Gui Army, still has some insight. He understood Bai Chongxi and Xia Wei's intentions very well: this inexplicable Red Army unit was a hidden danger to the entire Gui Army, and it must not be underestimated. Once they are allowed to sit on the throne, once they continue to riot here, the Central Army is likely to "help" under the pretext that the Red Army here has not been cleaned up.
Of course, the problem of the Central Army only encircling and suppressing the Red Army here is not a big problem, but these Central Army will definitely not be so kind, and they will definitely continue to advance into the hinterland of Guangxi, and then Guangxi's will not be Gui's, not Li Zongren's, and Bai Chongxi's, but his Jiang Jieshi's. In order to prevent Jiang from succeeding, the Gui army must go all out to take down this force that appeared out of thin air.
Wang Zanbin decided to concentrate the strength of the whole division to take it in one fell swoop, and the specific method was to use the two main regiments that did not suffer too many losses as the main attack, and the other regiment, which had suffered heavy losses in the battle with the Red Army, as a reserve, and act together with the six planes transferred from the general headquarters.
After listening to Wang Zanbin's plan, the three regiment commanders did not speak, in their opinion, it was really a big deal to use the three main regiments to attack a chaotic army with no change in name, it was far better to leave one battalion or two battalions, at most one regiment, as long as they were monitored, and the other troops continued to attack the tail of the main Red Army, so that they would get much more benefits.
Deputy division commander Zhou Yuan also said: "Master, are we looking too highly of them in this way? It's hard for so many people to expand. It is better to send a battalion to test it, if we can take them, of course, it is the best, our main force can rest and recuperate. When the time comes, it is better to continue to cut the tail of the main forces of the Red Army. It's good to be a class teacher back to Gui-Lin. Or beware of the central government-army entering Gui. If not. We'll add another battalion, and I don't believe how good these exhausted lost dogs can be. ”
The three regiment commanders all looked at Wang Zanbin with hope on their faces.
Wang Zanbin shook his head and said, "No! Although these people are a rabble, it cannot be ruled out that they will fight for trapped beasts. Those cannons aren't vegetarians. If we add camps one by one, it's a refueling tactic, and people want us to do it. You may not know that the 217th Battalion of the 134th Regiment of the 45th Division was killed by a sneak attack by dozens of their wolf-fleeing stragglers, and we cannot repeat the mistakes of the past.
Think about it, even Mr. Bai and Xia Junzuo attach so much importance to it, how can we take it lightly? We pay attention to it, if we suffer defeat. We have nothing to blame. However, if we despise and lose the battle, the heads of our brothers will move. Do you think it's better for us to pick up the rags of the Red Army, or to keep our heads? ”
The deputy division commander and others obediently shut up.
The commander of the 145th Regiment Mo Dehong said: "Okay, let's follow the plan of the division. My 145th Division is the first echelon, and the 146th Division is the second echelon. As soon as our planes finished bombing, we rushed up! Guaranteed first-time success! ”
Wang Zanbin said happily: "This is good, we don't divide the main attack and assist, it is to solve the problem once and for all with the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai." ”
"Yes!" The three regiment commanders replied immediately.
Their battle plan was immediately sent to Bai Chongxi in the form of a telegram.
……
Now Guo Zhuocheng is building a fake artillery position on Matouling with some captured artillerymen.
Because I learned that the Gui army would send planes to bomb it. The focus of its bombardment is not to think about it, but it is these sixteen guns and those mortars. In Gui Jun's eyes, this is the biggest threat to them. Naturally, Guo Zhuocheng would not really be dismissive of these wood-winged planes as he bragged in front of the soldiers. He had to take it seriously, because he knew that his troops were a complete rabble.
If the battle is won, this rabble will slowly return to its heart, and its combat effectiveness will become stronger and stronger. Everyone knows that if you don't want to be a soldier, you are a bandit, and as long as you win a battle, your subordinates will have high loyalty, high morale, and can withstand hard tests. On the contrary, if an army loses a battle, especially if it loses again and again, even the most elite troops will be demoralized, demoralized, and will fall apart at the slightest setback.
Now this special task force simply cannot withstand a single defeat, cannot withstand the wanton bombing of aircraft, and cannot withstand heavy casualties. Guo Zhuocheng not only wants to ensure that they win the battle, but also ensure that they fight happily, fight happily, and achieve great results, so that everyone can be convinced and retracted.
On the one hand, he arranged for Deputy Captain Zhuang Zongquan to lead most of the soldiers to dig trenches, repair bunkers, arrange positions, lay mines and explosives, and let Sun Xingguo select soldiers to practice sniping.
Because there were no anti-aircraft machine guns, they had to use heavy machine guns instead, and wood was used to make anti-aircraft fire mounts for heavy machine guns.
"Report to the captain, this is the enemy briefing we have gathered!" Guo Zhuocheng was arranging for someone to bury the wooden stake, and Sheng Guozhen hurriedly ran over with a copy of the text.
Guo Zhuocheng looked at the SSS mark on Wen Jiàn, threw down the tools in his hand, explained a few words to the soldiers around him, and walked aside.
After a few glances, he said to his communicator and guard Chen Xiaoqi: "You call Deputy Captain Zhuang, I want to discuss it with him." ”
"Yes!" Chen Xiaoqi turned around and walked away quickly.
Seeing that there was no one around, Sheng Guozhen asked a little worriedly: "Head, this time it's not simple, the two groups are on it together." Will these people be able to withstand it? ”
Guo Chengcheng didn't speak, just looked at the busy figure at the foot of the mountain, and looked into the distance. After a long time, he said: "This army must fight, as long as we fight we can take them away, otherwise it will collapse sooner or later." ......, the current situation is not the most sinister, and there will be even more difficult times in the future. You just keep an eye on their radio and mobilize them to do things for us if necessary. ”
"I understand!" Sheng Guozhen took Wen Jiàn from Guo Zhuocheng's hand and left in a hurry.
It didn't take long for Zhuang Zongquan to stride over.
Guo Zhuocheng smiled and took a few steps, stretched out his hand and said, "Comrade Zongquan, it's hard work. What is the morale of the soldiers? ”
Zhuang Zongquan shook Guo Shucheng's hand twice, still a little pimple in his heart, and said, "The morale is okay." The morale of our Red Army soldiers was high, but the newly converted captives were a little reluctant. Many people thought that we should take advantage of the fact that the Gui army had been wiped out by us and panicked, and rush to the ferry to leave with our brother troops. Originally, I wanted to explain it to them, but you said no, so I ignored it, so I just didn't hear it. Captain Guo, is there anything wrong with you calling me here? ”
Guo Zhuocheng said: "We detected the enemy's deployment by radio, and the tactic adopted by the enemy's 44th Division was that the two main regiments attacked us together in an attempt to capture our position in one fell swoop under the cover of five aircraft. You decide how we should fight? ”
Zhuang Zongquan frowned and said, "Two regiments attacking at the same time? They really look up to us, and in that case, we're going to have too much to defend. Our original plan had to change. Why don't they resort to the most common fueling tactics? These guys really look up to us. ”
Guo Shucheng asked, "How to change it?" ”
Zhuang Zongquan thought for a while and said: "Reduce the reserves, move the main force forward, use our fortifications to resist layer by layer, in order to weaken their living forces, and finally block the enemy in the middle of the mountain for confrontation." In the evening, we will use the night to evacuate. ”
Guo Shucheng shook his head and said, "I think we should have more focused defense. ”
Zhuang Zongquan asked puzzledly, "Focused defense?" If the two regiments attacked at the same time, there would be no ease or intensity in this place. There are main battlefields everywhere, what if the enemy attacks from our non-focused places? All it takes is one breakthrough and we will lose it all. You must know that our warriors are not all Red Army, and if you find an enemy on their flanks or behind them, your morale will probably collapse, and it will be hard to believe that they can fight alone. ”
Guo Zhuocheng said: "I mean to lead the enemy to attack the places we focus on defending, and let them abandon the places where we have no key defenses. ”
Zhuang Zongquan asked in surprise: "Guidance? How could they listen to us? ”
Guo Shucheng smiled: "Force them to listen." You see, like on my left, the mountain roads here are rough and the slopes are very steep, and if they charge, they will inevitably slow down. If we put more mines, plant more explosives, and plant a machine gun or something, will they choose a new direction of attack, will they choose to attack on the right slope? ”
Zhuang Zongquan quickly understood what Guo Zhuocheng meant, but he still said worriedly: "This kind of fast and slow is relative, although they take a slightly flat road to attack the mountain, it is faster, but it is not faster than ten minutes. We had to repel them in ten minutes, so that we could free up our hands to attack the enemy who was attacking from a non-focused direction. The risk is too great, and if an enemy rushes up to the top of the mountain at the same time as them, we will be self-defeating. ”
"So we have to artificially increase the difficulty of attacking in these places, make them a little slower, and on those flat roads, if necessary, we take the initiative to put them up, let them approach the mountain earlier, let them see the hope of victory, and then we push down and inflict huge losses on them," Guo said. ”
Zhuang Zongquan thought for a while and said: "This method is good, that is, to give them hope, let them think that they are about to succeed, so as to attract other enemies on the road who are not easy to attack to take the initiative to run over, and after that, we will go all out to kill them." As long as they succeed two or three times, they will not be able to attack. ......, it's just, can our own people be stable? ”
