In the command room, Shao Fei, Chen Haotian, and Feng Anbang discussed the plan of action for the evening. The commander of the 27th Division, Huang Qiaosong, returned with the wounded and commanded the battle of the other two regiments of the canal defense line.

In the afternoon, although Shao Fei did not participate in the battle, he was not idle. When teaching the soldiers of the second battalion Japanese, he sent a reconnaissance squad to reconnoiter the Sakamoto detachment in front.

Shao Fei drew a map of the intelligence he had reconnoitred, accurately indicating the location, distance, and code.

"Now we have a Japanese brigade in front of the left and right flanks. After daytime battles, the strength should be less than a thousand. Our mission at night was to wipe out these two brigades once and for all. Shao Fei pointed to the map he had drawn and said.

Feng Anbang then understood what Chen Haotian said during the day, this madman really wanted to beat a battalion out of the combat effectiveness of a division, and he said to Shao Fei: "How to beat you specifically, if it is feasible, I am a general and I am willing to listen to your dispatch."

Shao Fei said: "This kind of play was used by the ancients, and it is called fish eyes and pearls. The second battalion all changed into Japanese military uniforms and tied small white cloth around their legs to distinguish friend from foe. The troops were divided into two parts, a team of 300 people. ……”

After Shao Fei finished talking about his mission, he said to Chen Haotian: "The first battalion sent a reinforced company, a mortar platoon, and more machine guns and grenades, to make a detour to the rear of the enemy on the left flank to ambush. When encountering the enemy fleeing from the south, they will be killed with machine guns; If you encounter reinforcements from the north, get out of the way and wait for the reinforcements to leave. Dispatch more security posts. ”

Chen Haotian replied, "No problem."

Then Shao Fei Feng Anbang said: "Old general, you are one of the soldiers I admire the most, and the night attack on the east gate of Taierzhuang on the night of the 1st is a masterpiece arranged by you, I really have nothing to say." ……”

Feng Anbang shook his hand vigorously and said, "Boy, don't pat Lao Tzu's ass!" What do you want to call the Northwest Army to do, you can say it directly! ”

Shao Fei said with a smile: "The Northwest Army's broadsword really didn't say, the attack on the Liujiahu artillery position, the broadsword death squad of Bai Dehou, and the two hundred death squad you had that night. I would like to organize an elite broadsword team of 500 people, and the personnel will be selected from both units. Conceal near the Japanese camp on the left flank, wait for the signal to be given, and immediately launch an attack. Tell the warriors to pay attention to the white cloth under the devil's feet, and don't hurt their own people. ”

"Yes, yes!" Feng Anbang nodded in agreement, and then said, "Your tactic is very risky. But the enemy is heavy and outnumbered, so we can only take risks. But how do you destroy the enemy on the right flank, and what do you do with reinforcements from the north? ”

Shao Fei explained: "The key to this battle is time, to eliminate the left wing as quickly as possible. The Japanese troops on the right flank are insufficient, and they will only stand still, so let's leave them alone, and as for the reinforcements, I think I can think of a countermeasure. Besides, the Japanese troops on the left flank will not ask for reinforcements unless they have to, and we have time. ”

Feng Anbang shook his head with a smile and said, "I didn't find you so young, you have such strategy and courage, and your future is immeasurable."

Shao Fei smiled bitterly: "What about the future? I have a special identity, and after this battle, your national army will not arrest me and go to prison, thank you. ”

Chen Haotian knew what Shao Fei was referring to, but Feng Anbang misunderstood what Shao Fei meant. He believes that the so-called special refers to Shao Fei's identity as the Eighth Route Army, and some people in the national army are afraid that he will be a threat in the future.

"If someone does such an ungrateful thing, I will be the first to stand up and not agree!"

Feng Anbang is a person who is jealous and hateful, because Shao Fei's unintentional words just now will soon cause a lot of sensation in Xuzhou.

Shao Fei smiled with relief and said, "Thank you for the old general's kindness, my matter will be solved by myself, let's get down to business." I estimate that tomorrow will be the moment of the decisive battle, and the 20th Army Corps will inevitably send troops to encircle the Sakamoto detachment. So as long as we fight this battle at night, we can retire successfully. ”

Chen Haotian asked, "Are you sure about this?"

"Hmm" Shao Fei nodded and said, "Chief Li and Chairman Li will not tolerate Tang Enbo standing still. This is the best fighter, and it is also the most critical part of the entire Taierzhuang campaign. If the 20th Group Army does not send troops, we can't stop it, and Taierzhuang can't be protected; The 20th Army will send troops, and the Second Army will definitely respond, encircling the Seya Brigade, and victory is in sight. The Chairman will not fail to see through this. ”

Feng Anbang said: "You are right, our Second Army was originally going to encircle the Seya Brigade today. It was because the 20th Army was afraid of being surrounded by the 10th Division and the Sakamoto detachment and refused to send troops, so it was delayed until now. I saw through this, and only launched a night attack on the east gate of Taierzhuang in the early morning of the 2nd to relieve the pressure on the defenders in the village. ”

After that, the trio once again perfected their plan of action for the evening. When they left the command tent, they were surrounded by hundreds of people outside the tent.

A lieutenant colonel officer walked up to Shao Fei without a good face, and said, "Are you Shao Fei?" Why do you put our three camps aside, are we raised by stepmothers!? The first battalion is the Sichuan army, and the commander is also the Sichuan army; The second battalion is the former 88th Division, and you have deep friendships with them; What are our three battalions? We crawled out of the pile of dead people for nine lifetimes, and we could have not come, because we wanted to kill devils and take revenge! So here it is. But why don't you let us kill the devil!? ”

"yes, why don't you let us kill the devil!?"

"Lao Tzu is here to avenge his brother!"

"it! The original troops are gone, and no troops are willing to ask us, so we don't have the opportunity to kill the devils, but you are like this! ”

“……”

There was a sigh of complaining, and some people even began to scold their mother. They are here to fight devils, take revenge, and send them to death. No one ordered them to come, and there was no benefit for them, and they were already desperate and did not care about the relationship between their superiors and subordinates. They are hell-bent on killing devils!

Shao Fei understood something. Originally, it was thought that the third battalion was a miscellaneous army, with various units gathered together, and there was no combat effectiveness at all. Now think about your mistake, they are the soldiers who are not afraid of death!

Chen Haotian wanted to step forward to appease, but was stopped by Shao Fei. Feng Anbang smiled on the side: "I like this unit!"

"Quiet!" Shao Fei shouted, and then provoked the third battalion commander: "Kill devils? That's up to you, not your mouth. You're not a woman, can you only move your mouth? ”

The third battalion commander accepted the provocation and said, "Shao Fei, I know you, your deeds are about to become a legend in the army." However, whether it is a false name, or whether it is really capable of speaking with its hands. ”

Chen Haotian interjected: "He doesn't use his hands to speak, but his brain."

Shao Fei just smiled and shouted, "Someone!" Come on those two big knives! ”

Feng Anbang immediately signaled his men to take big knives and give them to Shao Fei and the third battalion commander respectively, and then a group of people scattered and let them duel.

While Feng Anbang wanted to know Shao Fei's ability, he also liked the third battalion commander who dared to compete with his superiors.

Chen Haotian whispered in Feng Anbang's ear: "Shao Fei doesn't know how to use a big knife, he and his team members use a small long knife, and they are all masters of one enemy and ten."

Feng Anbang smiled: "You don't understand his intentions."

"Ah" I saw the third battalion commander holding the knife with both hands and slashing hard, Shao Fei felt his wrist numb with force, and secretly sighed that this person had a lot of strength.

The third battalion put his left hand in front of the handle of the knife to stabilize the big knife, put his right hand behind to control the direction of the knife, and then slashed towards Shao Fei with force. Shao Fei retreated and barely blocked it, and began to lose the upper hand.

Feng Anbang looked carefully from the side and said approvingly: "This person is a master of playing with knives. The broadsword itself is heavy and physically demanding. He can not only save his physical strength but also exert his power by swinging the knife like this, and it seems that Shao Fei is going to lose. ”

Shao Fei kept retreating and dodging, struggling to block the attack of the third battalion commander, and he was about to be defeated. Suddenly, Shao Fei threw the knife into the sky, and the third battalion commander subconsciously looked at the big knife in the sky. Shao Fei rushed over like lightning, covering the opponent's knife handle with one hand and choking the throat of the third battalion commander with the other.

"You lost. Unusual actions attract the attention of the other person the most, and you should have the enemy in your eyes, not the big knife in his hand. ”

After Shao Fei finished speaking, he let go of his hand. The commander of the third battalion coughed three times in a row and said, "I lost, and I am willing to bow down."

"You didn't lose, I'm cheating. It's me who loses when I really fight. ”

"Losing is losing. It's the same with fighting, you don't have to be strong to win. There are countless examples of the weak defeating the strong! ”

The words of the third battalion commander once again made Feng Anbang appreciate him, so he stepped forward and said, "Shao Fei doesn't really want to compare with you, he is assessing your suitability to be the captain of the broadsword team and participate in the night operation."

The third battalion commander was taken aback from time to time and asked, "Then am I suitable?"

Shao Fei smiled: "You ask the general, he is in charge of the big knife team." The general seems to appreciate you very much, and you are **** lucky. ”

The third battalion commander looked at Feng Anbang, Feng Anbang patted the third battalion commander on the shoulder, and said, "There are still five hours, and the elite broadsword team of five hundred people must be selected before 11 o'clock in the evening, and you will be the captain." Also, after this battle, do you still have your three battalions willing to follow me Feng Anbang? ”

"I do!"

The third battalion commander turned around and shouted, "Are you willing!?"

"Yes!" Hundreds of people spoke in unison.

"Good!" Feng Anbang shouted vigorously: "Let's kill the devils together and drive those **** out of our land!"
