Yang Ling's report to the brigade headquarters did not receive attention because of the chief of staff's interference, which made him very annoyed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

But most of the information he understands comes from his vague memory, and now he can't come up with convincing evidence, so he is very helpless.

Thinking that the 302nd Regiment, which had already left for the Minshan front, might encounter a strong enemy and lose many excellent soldiers, his heart could not calm down, and he was a little upset.

"Brother Yang, don't blame me for talking too much, the chief of staff is our commander after all, don't talk back to him in the future, if it goes on like this, it won't be good for us."

Seeing that Yang Ling's face was a little bad, thinking that he was unhappy to be pushed back by the chief of staff, Zhang Handuo sighed and said his inner thoughts.

Although Zhang Handuo also did not treat those people in the General Staff Office, he also knew that if he worked against the people in the General Staff Office, they would definitely suffer.

Yang Ling complained dissatisfiedly: "As a staff officer, you must know the situation of the various troops on both sides of the enemy and us, and know the terrain, climate, roads and other conditions in the combat area by heart for the commander to make correct decisions, but what do you see our staff officers doing?" ”

Zhang Handuo also shook his head slightly, if the staff officers really did what Yang Ling said, how could their troops always fall into a passive state.

Their brothers shed their blood for the life and death of the country and the nation, but Yang Ling didn't want the brothers to be killed by that group of staff officers who talked on paper.

"What are you going to do?" Seeing that Yang Ling was in a bad mood, Zhang Handuo changed the topic in time.

Yang Ling stopped, looked at the camp that was dark and blind due to the light control among the rolling mountains, took a deep breath and said: "I can't count on the brigade headquarters, now I can only send someone to remind Commander Lin, I hope it's too late." ”

Zhang Handuo agreed with Yang Ling's opinion, turned to the adjutant and ordered: "Immediately ask the communication squad to send someone to the 302nd Regiment on a fast horse to remind Commander Lin Xiufeng, and say that the 6th Brigade of the Japanese Army may also be heading towards Minshan, let him pay attention." ”

"Yes!" After a moment's hesitation, the adjutant gave a military salute and quickly disappeared into the darkness, ready to alert them in the name of his allies.

Although their 51st Division is also regarded as the main infantry division of the National Revolutionary Army, the radio is only assigned to the brigade level, and the units below the regimental and battalion level rely on temporary telephone communication.

And now Lin Xiufeng's 302nd Regiment is on its way to Minshan, and Yang Ling and they can only send a communication force, hoping to catch up.

Yang Ling thought for a while and said to Zhang Handuo: "If they encounter the Japanese army in Minshan, our regiment will inevitably be involved in the battle, and we must also prepare in advance, so as not to be in a hurry at that time." ”

The preparation of dry rations, the dismantling of heavy weapons, the loading and unloading of ammunition, the packing of salutes, the assembly of battalions, and the marching order of troops will delay a lot of time.

Zhang Handuo also knew very well in his heart that if the 302nd Regiment and the Japanese exchanged fire, their regiment would definitely not be able to escape, and they would have to go up with reinforcements, so they had no objections to Yang Ling's proposal, so they should be prepared.

"Then let's go separately, I will go back to the regiment headquarters to convene the staff officers to formulate a marching battle plan, and you will separately inform the battalions to be ready to be ready to move at any time."

After the regiment commanders Zhang Handuo and Yang Ling said goodbye, they left in a hurry, and Yang Ling also went straight to each battalion to inform them separately.

"Deputy of the regiment, are we going to war?" Hearing that they were ready to be pulled out at any time, Wang Huzi and the others immediately became excited.

These days, they have been digging trenches and training all day in De'an, and they have long had itchy hands when they watched the friendly troops fighting in front of them.

"The brigade headquarters has not yet issued a combat order, but I estimate that it will be soon, you should prepare first, don't really fight when the time comes, you will procrastinate and embarrass Lao Tzu."

Yang Ling saw that the brothers' enthusiasm for fighting was very high, and his mood improved, but he would not fake the military order, but explained the situation to them clearly.

"Hehe, don't worry, the brothers, they are holding back their strength, and they have long been looking forward to fighting with the little devils, and they promise that the little devils will never come back."

Honorary Company Commander Blacksmith They have been recovering from their injuries in the hospital, and although they have the title of honorary veteran, they have no real name, and they also want to show their hands on the battlefield and let the rest of the companies see that they are not embroidered pillows.

"Okay, you guys prepare secretly to keep quiet, and if there is an order, you will be notified immediately." After Yang Ling left the third battalion, he went straight to the first battalion.

Under the orders of Yang Ling and Zhang Handuo, the battalions of the 301st Regiment began intensive preparations for mobilization before the war, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Yang Ling was busy until more than ten o'clock in the evening, because he was worried about the situation in the direction of Minshan, and he didn't fall asleep until the second half of the night.

Although Yang Ling is only a regimental commander, he can act according to the commander's orders in everything, and he doesn't need to think too much.

But Yang Ling also knew in his heart that he was holding the lives of more than 2,000 brothers in his hands, and he was under a lot of pressure, and he had to take precautions for many things.

Yang Ling was woken up in his sleep by the orderly Huzi, he sat up with a spirit, opened his eyes and looked outside the tent, it was already dawn.

"What's going on?" Yang Ling asked.

Huzi replied: "The brigade seat has arrived at the regiment headquarters, so let you go over immediately." ”

When Yang Ling heard that the brigade commander Zhou Zhidao had arrived at the regiment headquarters, he had a premonition that something was happening, and without the slightest hesitation, he grabbed his clothes and ran out of the tent.

When he came out of the tent, he saw that the brothers had begun to assemble to the shouts of the officers, and the atmosphere was tense.

"Brigade seat-" Stepping into the somewhat dim tent of the regiment headquarters, Yang Ling saw the brigade commander Zhou Zhidao standing in front of the map at a glance.

Brigade Commander Zhou Zhidao changed his previous calm style, and his face looked a little anxious.

"Yang Ling, your judgment is correct, I just received a report from the 302nd Regiment that they encountered a large force of Japanese troops in the Minshan area, I need your regiment to immediately reinforce it, and the Japanese army must be blocked to the death in Minshan."

Brigade Commander Zhou Zhidao pointed to the map and said to Yang Ling and Zhang Handuo in an unquestionable tone.

Yang Ling stepped forward and said loudly: "Brigade seat, give an order!" Guaranteed to keep the little devil in Minshan! ”

Seeing that Yang Ling was not dissatisfied because of yesterday's incident, but received the task with full enthusiasm, the brigade commander Zhou Zhidao was stunned for a moment, and then nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, Yang Ling will first take a battalion as the vanguard to advance lightly and quickly reinforce it." Zhou Zhidao said to Zhang Handuo again: "Commander Zhang, you take the other two battalions with heavy weapons and then follow. ”

"Yes!" Zhang Handuo and Yang Ling stood up and saluted in unison, then turned around and walked out of the tent.

Because Yang Ling and the others had issued an order to prepare for combat mobilization last night, the assembly of the troops was very fast, and ten minutes later, Yang Ling had personally led the three battalions to take the lead in the direction of Minshan and started a rapid march.

And the speed of the regiment commander Zhang Handuo is not slow, and the carrying of heavy weapons and baggage is only half an hour slower and the speed of them is incredible.
