Liu Hong's gaze swept over everyone's faces, and seeing everyone's solemn expressions, he smiled and said, "You don't have to worry, in this way, we don't have to hide it." Let's just make the momentum bigger, let's tell the little devils generously that our martial arts team is here to save the 11th regiment, I want to see how these little devils react. ”

Wu Feng frowned and thought about it, took the lead in understanding, and said: "What does the captain mean, bluffing, so that the little devil can't figure out our reality?" ”

"Not bad! Since we can't hide it, let's walk out openly. Liu Hong said with a serious face: "I plan to let the three infantry squadrons of our martial arts team be divided into three routes, from the west, northwest and north, respectively, to the direction of Deng Zhuangzi. If you encounter the Japanese puppet army along the way, you don't have to be polite to fight directly, just take this opportunity to let the little devil see the power of our martial arts team. ”

Zhou Wenxuan nodded and said: "The captain means that this is to confuse the little devils, so that they can't judge the real direction of our breakthrough, although this idea is good." But since the little devil already knows that our martial arts team has come to Deng Zhuangzi's rescue, he will definitely be on guard, and he will inevitably mobilize troops to reinforce him. ”

"Hmm!" Liu Hong pointed to the map on the ground and said: "The main combat units of the Seventh Independent Mixed Brigade have a total of five infantry brigades and one artillery brigade, of which two infantry brigades and artillery brigades are deployed in Deng Zhuangzi. ”

Liu Hong said and pointed to Deng Zhuangzi Village marked on the map, and then continued: "The other three brigades are arranged on the two flanks of the main force, but one of the brigades suddenly drove to the area of Gaozhai and the old city today, I estimate that even if they receive orders now, it will be difficult to rush back for a while." ”

"In this way, in addition to Deng Zhuangzi's Japanese puppet army, the only ones who can rush to support are the two brigades arranged in the east." Liu Hong continued: "But of these two brigades, only one brigade is closer, and the other brigade is at the outermost periphery, which is estimated to be forty or fifty miles away from Deng Zhuangzi. ”

"My plan is to do it before this group of imps arrives, so that we will only face three infantry brigades and one artillery brigade of the 7th Independent Brigade. At night, the devil's artillery will be affected to a certain extent, not to mention that we are breaking through, so this artillery brigade does not pose much of a threat to us. ”

"In this way, there are three infantry brigades left, but two of the infantry brigades have been fighting in Deng Zhuangzi for a day, and the 11th regiment has suffered heavy losses, but the little devil is not comfortable, maybe these two brigades have been disabled, and it would be good to have one brigade left. So what we are facing is at most two teams of little devils. ”

Liu Hong paused, and then continued: "If it is a head-on fight, with our current strength, if we want to completely defeat the little devils of the two brigades, the possibility is almost zero. ”

"However, our mission this time is only to meet the 11th Regiment to break through, we only need to tear a hole in the devil's defense line, pick up the soldiers of the 11th Regiment to stand out, and then find a way to get rid of the pursuing little devils."

"In this way, it will be much simpler, with our current strength, if we can't even do this, then we don't need to ask for the military flag of the martial arts team, just throw it directly into the ditch."

Bai Ling suddenly interjected and said: "The captain's analysis is not bad, but you seem to have overlooked one point, that is, in addition to the little devils, Deng Zhuangzi also has a regiment of puppet troops, with a strength of about two thousand. ”

Liu Hong said with a smile: "Yes, Deng Zhuangzi does have a regiment of puppet troops, but according to my judgment, this army has no combat effectiveness at all." You want to! If this puppet army had half the combat effectiveness of the little devil, with two Japanese brigades and an artillery brigade, it would not have fought for so long, and it would not have been able to defeat a small Deng Zhuangzi. ”

Liu Hong paused, and then continued: "And there is another point, why did Tetsushiro Taga suddenly stop attacking? In the current situation of the 11th Regiment, if they continue to fight, it is a question whether they can hold out until dark. Tetsushiro Taga, an old fox, can't you see it? ”

Liu Hong continued: "He can definitely see it, so why did he stop attacking Deng Zhuangzi, instead of freeing up his hands to concentrate on us after eliminating the 11th Regiment?" There is only one reason, that is, he is not sure that he will fight against our martial arts team in the current situation, so he will stop attacking and turn to defense. At the same time, the purpose of summoning troops to reinforce us quickly is to contain us in Deng Zhuangzi, and then let the reinforcements of the devils surround us on the periphery, and then destroy our military engineering team. ”

Liu Hong finally said: "So we must hurry up now and take the 11th Regiment to break through before the little devil's reinforcements arrive." We originally planned to do it late at night, but now it seems that it will not work, and we will do it after dark, and the specific time will be set at half past eight! ”

Wu Feng thought about it seriously, carefully recalled Liu Hong's words, nodded and said, "I agree with the captain's opinion. ”

Bai Ling said with a smile: "It's all here, you can't help but fight!" I don't have a problem with it, but the main direction of attack is set on that side. ”

Liu Hong said with a serious face: "According to the information we have obtained so far, the west and north of Deng Zhuangzi are the defense areas of the puppet army. ”

After hearing this, everyone nodded their heads in agreement.

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Liu Hong nodded with satisfaction and said: "Since this is the case, then it is decided, the squadrons are immediately ready to act, and after an hour, the troops will advance in the direction of Deng Zhuangzi in three ways, the speed does not have to be too fast, as long as they arrive at the periphery of the devil's defense line before eight o'clock in the evening." ”

"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison.

Liu Hong turned around and glanced at Zhao Lei, and said with a serious face: "Leizi! This time, the main attack task has been handed over to your first squadron, give Lao Tzu a good fight, if this battle is not fought well, Lao Tzu will remove you. ”

Zhao Lei hurriedly said: "Please rest assured, captain, promise to complete the task, if you don't fight well, you can shoot me." ”

"Hmm!" Liu Hong nodded with satisfaction and then said: "Signal soldiers, immediately send the battle plan to Commander Zhang of the 11th Regiment by telegram to inform them to prepare in advance." ”

"Yes!"
