Although the Japanese commanders on the Yangquan front knew that Hu Guoshan was preparing to attack them, as for when and from which direction to launch the attack, the Japanese spies lurking in Yangquan City did not figure it out.

The little devils knew that battle was coming, but all they could do was dig deep into their trenches, and the rest of the time could only wait for known enemies to appear in unknown places.

Hu Guoshan did not take any staff officer's opinion, his battle plan was formed in his mind, and after he went on the battlefield, the situation changed rapidly, and all he had to do was to improvise.

This battle was a battle improvised by Hu Guoshan, he didn't know how to fight, and the little devil didn't know how to fight.

When Hu Guoshan was preparing to attack the Japanese army in front of Yangquan, Li Weimin and the others were undergoing a huge test. The number of Japanese troops attacking Datong was more than twice as large as theirs, especially the number of armored troops exceeded Li Weimin's expectations.

It seems that the little devils have transferred all the Japanese armored units in the Chahar area to Datong.

The Japanese troops in charge of attacking Datong knew very well that they were not only going to take Datong, but also to eliminate the safety of their front line of the Great Wall, and if they could not inflict huge casualties or blows to Li Weimin's division, the defense line laid out by the Japanese army on the Great Wall might still face a huge threat.

In order to prevent future troubles and no longer have worries, the Japanese army responsible for attacking Datong decided to fight to the death. So a large army was mobilized to besiege Datong.

With the help of Huang Changsheng, Li Weimin arranged two lines of defense on the periphery of Datong, and the third line of defense was the city wall of Datong and the last entire town of Datong. Li Weimin didn't want the people in Datong City to be hit by artillery fire, so he hoped that his troops could consume the main force of the Japanese army on the periphery of Datong, at least so that the Japanese army's ability to attack would be lost.

"Ahem, cough, cough"

Li Weimin's coughing continued to be heard from the headquarters, and his condition seemed to worsen again.

"Xiao Zhao, go to the hospital and find a doctor to command!" Huang Changsheng ordered the soldiers around him to go to the hospital to find a doctor to take care of Li Weimin.

"Brigadier Huang...... cough cough cough ...... Don't call a doctor, I can still hold on, now that the battle has begun, the hospital needs a doctor to operate on the wounded, my illness is out of the way! Li Weimin's voice sounded weak.

"Don't talk to me about these useless things, if you fall again, you don't know how much impact it will have on the troops, your Li Weimin's life is to exchange a battalion of soldiers for me, I won't change it, there is a doctor with me, I don't worry!"

Huang Changsheng was really worried that Li Weimin would fall, now the troops on the front line were all Li Weimin's subordinates, if they heard that their division commander was sick, what would these soldiers think? Now that Liao Fan has had an accident, and another division commander has fallen, there will be no need to fight this battle.

He is responsible for Li Weimin, and even more so for the lives of all the soldiers on the front line.

At this time, Song Zuyi came to Li Weimin's headquarters with a few people, Song Zuyi is still the deputy mayor, but now there are more and more people under him who can do things, and he is no longer a bare-bones commander.

"Senior Commander Li, Brigade Commander Huang, is there anything we need to do?"

"Vice Mayor Song, why are you here? Fighting a war is the business of our soldiers, and you are still in charge of the internal affairs of Datong! Huang Changsheng looked at Song Zuyi, I don't know what this guy is doing at this time, now is not the time to make trouble.

"Brigade Commander Huang, we are also a part of Datong, and now the soldiers are desperately defending Datong on the front line, and we also want to make a difference!"

Now Song Zuyi, as the highest administrative official in Datong, of course he can't watch the citizens of Datong suffer from the glory of the war, this is their home, where they have lived for generations.

And they finally met a force that could really dare to fight the enemy, and they certainly couldn't stand idly by.

"My Mayor Song, you still honestly maintain order in Datong, just don't let the people panic, I'll thank God for doing this!" Huang Changsheng really didn't expect these ordinary people to be able to do anything for the troops, as long as they could keep to themselves.

Now the order in Datong City is very important, once the people are in chaos, it will affect the traffic in Datong City, traffic is the lifeblood of the army, related to the transportation and supply of troops and the movement of troops, once the people pour into the streets, the road is blocked, then the consequences are unimaginable.

"Brigade Commander Huang, we have all been notified door-to-door in the city, and the citizens will not risk going to the streets to obstruct military affairs at this time, we are all idle at this time, you can assign us some tasks within your ability!"

"Can you guarantee that they won't be pouring into the streets now, that they won't be flooding the streets when Datong is completely surrounded by Japanese troops? Don't look at the stability on the surface now, maybe there will be trouble later! ”

At present, they are unable to guarantee that the front-line troops will fight smoothly, and once the news of the unfavorable battle reaches Datong, the common people will inevitably panic, and if someone deliberately exaggerates the situation, then Datong will become a mess and will be out of control.

"Brigadier Huang...... I...... We...... We have arranged for someone to guard the office at the city hall, and they will deal with it if there is a situation! ”

Song Zuyi didn't expect that Huang Changsheng would not agree to their help, but he came with the entrustment of the citizens of Datong, and the people who were rescued by the New 33rd Army from the hands of the little devils did not forget the kindness of the New 33rd Army.

"Changsheng ......" Li Weimin pulled Huang Changsheng to the back, avoiding Song Zuyi and them, "Deputy Mayor Song obviously came with the will of the people, we can't brush off the kindness of the people, I think it's better to arrange something for them to do, otherwise Song Zuyi won't be able to explain to the citizens after he goes back!" ”

Huang Changsheng frowned: "But where do we have something for them to help, it's good if they don't make trouble!" ”

Now their troops guarding Datong are a little nervous, but they are in order, and they don't need help at all.

"We need to transport supplies to the front line in logistics, so let them be responsible for carrying ammunition to the vehicle, which can also reduce the pressure on logistics!" Li Weimin suggested that although they do not need people in logistics at present, when the war is anxious, it is not possible for the soldiers of the logistics department to work overtime.

"Lao Li, it's not that you don't know, it's all ammunition, if you let ordinary people carry it, I'm afraid there will be trouble!"

Huang Changsheng is not at ease with ordinary people going to carry ammunition for them, first, these citizens are careless, ammunition is such a thing, if it touches it, it will be a problem. Second, Huang Changsheng was worried that some Japanese spies would be mixed in among the citizens, in case these spies jumped over the wall in a hurry, and directly used their bodies as * to blow up their arsenals, the consequences would be unimaginable.

In addition to ammunition and food, food is the support of soldiers, Huang Changsheng is even more worried about handing over the matter of transporting food to these ordinary people, in case he really infiltrates the spies and gives them some medicine, and the personnel who lose their combat effectiveness may be the entire company and the entire company.

In order to protect the soldiers, now the drinking water for the soldiers in Datong City is specially guarded by soldiers, Huang Changsheng does not dare to be careless, this is the lifeblood of the army, and the little devil will do whatever it takes to win this battle.

Now suddenly let the common people participate in these things, once something goes wrong, it will be Li Weiminshi's life. Huang Changsheng didn't have the courage to let the people do these things for them.

Li Weimin glanced back at Song Zuyi, they still believed in Song Zuyi, but those ordinary people were different.

"Changsheng, why don't they organize the common people to join the stretcher team, and our soldiers will send the wounded to the city gate, and let them send the wounded to the hospital!" Now that the troops have suffered casualties, it is inevitable that forces will be allocated to transport the wounded.

"That's a good idea, let them carry the wounded, and arrange a squad of fighters to be in charge of supervision!"

In Datong City, more than 1,000 young and middle-aged people gathered together, and they came to help the New 33rd Army carry the wounded.

In the middle of the procession, there was a group of people who gathered together and talked, and it was clear that they were very close and acted together, that is, someone deliberately separated them, and in a short time they would reunite as if they had never been separated.

If you look closely, there is a young man in the middle of this group, and the young one is a little unusual, and the people around him are very respectful to this young man.

"Young Master Kang, they asked us to carry the wounded, and we have no way to get close to the arsenal, what should we do?"

This young man is Kang Ping, who disappeared from the Kang family, when the Kang family fell, Kang Ping left the Kang family, he wanted to go all the way south, to Chongqing, and join his third uncle, but he met the Japanese army on the way.

Coincidentally, he also knew the leader of the Japanese squadron who led the team, this squadron leader once went to Kang's house as a guest, and Kang Hailong also received him in person, and Kang Ping was also there at that time, so there was still a bit of an impression between the two sides.

Since they are old friends, of course the squadron leader of the little devil will not let Kangping go so easily, Datong was captured by the Chinese army, and they need to understand and find an acquaintance to understand the situation in Datong.

It didn't take much effort to break through the iron shoes and find nowhere to get them, and Kang Ping sent them to the door, which made the squadron leader of the little devil very happy.

After learning about the situation of the Kang family, the squadron leader of the little sister-in-law was expressionless, and he never seemed to sympathize with the Kang family's plight, because in their eyes, the Chinese were just tools for them to use, and since Kang Ping had a feud with the New 33rd Army, the squadron leader of the little devil certainly did not mind taking advantage of some of the hatred between them.

So after three glasses of wine, Kang Ping, who had experienced few things, told the squadron leader of the little devil all the words in his stomach, and the squadron leader of the little devil also let go of this opportunity and took the opportunity to win over Kangping.
