In order to seize the time to conquer the three pillboxes occupied by the devils, Lei Jian had to temporarily put aside the discussion with Doctor Oshima, and said to Xiao Huang, the correspondent next to him: "Have you seen that the leader of the only regiment has finished the military meeting?" Call them to me as soon as they're over. ”

Xiao Huang rushed out of the room in a few steps, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw the head of the only regiment, who was squatting on the ground braving the cold and holding a meeting together, and the regiment commander Li Gang said: "If you don't have any opinions, immediately report to Commander Lei that we have studied the battle plan for destroying the enemy's bunker, and ask Commander Lei to make a final decision." ”

Wang Xiaoliang turned around and saw the correspondent Xiao Huang standing at the door of the house, he stood up and asked, "Xiao Huang, is it that Commander Lei is looking for us for something?" ”

"Yes, Captain Lei asked me to take a look, if the chief has a meeting, please come to him." Xiao Huang rubbed his hands in fear of cold and said.

Wang Xiaoliang saw that everyone stood up and prepared to enter the house, he grabbed Li Gang and said, "Li Gang, you kid is now the only regiment leader, where do you say our Lei regiment leader will be put after he recovers?" Besides, once Regiment Commander Lei knew that his position as regiment commander had been relieved again, what would he think, and would it affect him to recover from his injuries? ”

The cadres of the only regiment who were about to walk into the house heard Wang Xiaoliang ask Li Gang in a low voice, and several people stopped and said in embarrassment: "Commander Li, this is a difficult thing to handle, you have to think about it, don't hurt our Captain Lei." ”

Li Gang whispered 'haha' and said: "I have thought about this a long time ago, when I know that Commander Lei is still alive, I am happier than anyone else, you may not know why, I tell you, the only regiment was originally created by Commander Lei, at that time, the fourth independent mixed brigade of the Japanese army that was on the front line of the military city to block and sweep the Beiyue District, the head of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region temporarily appointed me Li Gang as the commander of the only regiment in order to facilitate command and stabilize the morale of the army.

Now Regiment Commander Lei is ordered by Commander Nie of the Military Region to dispatch a single regiment in Fuping to storm the East City Gate, and at this time most of Fuping City has been occupied, these are all under the unified command of Commander Lei, you have all seen that Commander Lei's body is recovering well, and he can completely lead the only regiment to re-enter the battlefield of fighting with the enemy. When we meet, I will return the head of the only regiment to Commander Lei, so that I will be much more relaxed. ”

The cadres of the only regiment heard what Li Gang said so lightly, and felt that this brother was authentic, worthy of being a good comrade-in-arms and good brother formed with life and blood on the battlefield, and said with a smile: "Commander Li has this mind, we are relieved." ”

"Bastard calf, what do you all think of me Li Gang? Hmph, it's really not enough brother, it turns out that you still doubt me. ”

The cadres of the only regiment walked into the room with a relaxed heart, and Wang Xiaoliang couldn't hold back his words and said: "Commander Lei, we all discussed just now, Li Gang's brother wants to ...... the regiment of the first regiment." ”

"Wang Xiaoliang, can you hold the words with your broken mouth? Now the great enemy should not talk nonsense at the moment. Li Gang dragged Wang Xiaoliang aside, looked at Lei Jian and reported: "Report to Regiment Commander Lei, the cadres of the only regiment have studied a combat plan to destroy the enemy's three pillboxes, please give me some guidance." ”

"Commander Li, don't stop Wang Xiaoliang's mouth, in fact, you don't say that I already know that you Li Gang is now the commander of the only regiment, my Lei Jian is very happy, but I am under the instructions of Commander Nie of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, temporarily commanding the only regiment to storm Fuping City, and when the battle is over, my Lei Jian will take the initiative to transfer the power of commanding the only regiment to you Commander Li Gang."

"Captain Lei, how do you—how do you know? None of us said anything? It's really strange, whose mouth is so cheap that he revealed this news to Captain Lei? Chief of Staff Zhou Peng looked at several regiment cadres and frowned and asked.

"I didn't say it, I didn't say it......."

Lei Jian cheered up and smiled happily and said: "Don't be suspicious of each other, Li Gang has been commanding the only regiment to fight the enemy for more than half a month, and you scheming people have been calling Commander Li since you walked in, didn't you directly tell me that the commander of the only regiment has been replaced?" My Lei Jian is not so stingy, I can look at my comrades-in-arms and brothers who live and die with me, and I can lead the only group to kill devils fiercely, I am too late to be happy. ”

Wang Xiaoliang asked aggrievedly: "Captain Lei, what you said is so easy, if you return to the team after being injured, then which team do you belong to?" Could it be that you should be an ordinary warrior? Hmph, if that's the case, I, Wang Xiaoliang, will go directly to Commander Nie, which is too unfair. ”

"You kid is so conscious, it's too simple to think about things, if my Lei Jian thinks that he can still do something in the eyes of the head of the military region, it is impossible not to consider where I go, if I really ask me to go down to the company as a soldier, my Lei Jian will never complain at all, you Wang Xiaoliang thinks so much, you are not afraid of worrying too much about long white hair?

Okay, don't worry about these now, show me your plan to destroy the three bunkers of the Japanese army, we don't have time to talk about uselessness here, it's not good to say that the organs of the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region and other troops are already on the way to Fucheng, and it won't be long before we can meet Commander Nie. ”

"Captain Lei, how did you know in advance? Did you receive that the organs of the military region and the large army are gathering here for us? That's too fast, isn't it? Everyone was a little suspicious of Lei Jian's statement, and they didn't care about asking many directly.

Lei Jian pursed his lips and did not answer, stretched out his hand to take the battle plan that Li Gang handed him to attack the enemy bunker, and carefully studied it, about ten minutes, Lei Jian's frowning brows relaxed, looked at the cadres of the only regiment and said: "I have no major changes to the battle plan you have made, only a few additions, if Commander Li doesn't mind, then I will directly issue an order according to your combat plan and my ideas, I don't know ...... Commander Li." ”

"Report to Regiment Commander Lei, Li Gang is now your deputy regiment commander, please give an order to the regiment commander."

Lei Jian shook his head and said with a smile: "Commander Li, you old brother wants to be lazy again, okay, I won't pursue your inertia, and give orders directly."

Ordered Chief of Staff Zhou Peng to lead the third battalion to feint and attack the main pillbox held by the Japanese army, and increase firepower to cover Zhang Ting, deputy commander of the regiment, led the first battalion and four companies to destroy the two auxiliary pillboxes.

He ordered Deputy Regiment Commander Wang Xiaoliang to lead the only regiment assault company, the spy company, and the newly formed reconnaissance company to form an encirclement on the periphery to prevent the devils in the pillboxes from abandoning the city and fleeing.

He ordered Deputy Regiment Commander Ma Ming to lead the cavalry battalion to strengthen patrols in the city, and to find enemies who had slipped through the net or hostile elements who resisted with guns, and to thoroughly suppress them by the strongest means, so as to restore a clean and safe city without hostile elements to the people of Fuping.

Zhang Guanghua was ordered to take over the large and small pharmacies, hospitals, and clinics in Fuping City, under the leadership of armed personnel sent by Wang Ziming, seal up medicines and medical equipment for protection, mobilize medical personnel in various hospitals and clinics, and actively participate in the work of treating the wounded and sick, but do a good job of screening, do not mix with hostile elements, sabotage and assassinate the wounded and sick of the Eighth Route Army and the villagers in the city.

Wang Ziming was ordered to lead the county squadron to protect the granaries, factories, and street shops, mobilize these factory owners and shopkeepers of various commercial houses, not be afraid to open the door and accept customers, encourage fair and prosperous trading in the market, and serve the needs of the military and civilians entering the city.

Commander Li Gang was ordered to take full command of all the troops in Fuping City, launch the most ferocious attack on the enemy, and send picket troops to picket. ”

After Lei Jian gave the order, he looked at Li Gang and asked: "Commander Li, I don't know if you have any other opinions about the order I gave just now, please put it forward now, and strive to fight the battle of destroying the three Japanese pillboxes in the county town more beautifully." ”

"Report to Regiment Commander Lei, Li Gang, on behalf of all the cadres and fighters of the One Regiment, resolutely carry out the orders issued by Regiment Commander Lei, and immediately launch the fiercest attack on the enemy's pillbox, please Commander Lei wait for our good news."

Li Gang said and suddenly shouted: "The cadres of the only regiment are here, salute the head of the Thunder Sword." ”

The commanders of the various units who had already received the task saluted Lei Jian in a military salute, turned around and rushed out of the house majestically, until the sound of running was far away, and a battle that heralded the final decisive battle between Fuping City and the enemy was about to begin.
