Chapter 656: Hold on to Pukou

The reinforced battalion allocated to Han Fei by Commander Li quickly arrived at the station, and the leader of the team turned out to be a major general and brigade commander, but when he saw Han Fei, he still had to salute and report: "Commander Han, I came to report on the orders of the military seat!" ”

Han Fei hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Brigade Commander Huang, don't be like this, I'm just a colonel, I have to call you sir, come on, let's not do this, let's discuss our deployment on the position." ”

"Don't negotiate, right? You give orders, and we do what they do. "Brigade Commander Huang is very polite, he knows that the army commander raised this Han Fei so high, there must be two hits, at the military meeting just now, this Han Fei said that is indeed different from what he has seen, quite fresh, and Han Fei's spy company is very famous for its strong combat effectiveness, and once gave a major blow to the elite devil main force on the battlefield in Shanghai, guarding the Jiangyin Fort, and beating the devil fleet did not dare to cross the Jiangyin River, these things are true, it can be seen that this surname Han is not simple.

"How's that going to work? Huang Luzao, don't bury me, come on, you listen to my deployment first, what's wrong, just bring it up, I have something missing, just correct it! Han Fei understands that these officers of the 79th Army are now unconvinced, although they dare not disobey openly due to Commander Li's order, but there must be resistance in secret, why should they listen to the shouts of a foreign officer whose rank is one level lower than himself and is not yet the 79th Army, is it really a foreign monk who is good at chanting? So try to be humble and speak kindly, otherwise people will really disagree with you.

Han Fei pointed to a high ground on the map and said to Brigade Commander Huang: "This is the most important support on the periphery of the Pukou Railway Station, although the terrain is not so high, but there is a river below, the main force of the devil wants to capture the railway station, and it can only pass through here, I want your troops to stay here for more than three days, is there any difficulty?" ”

The brigade commander Huang is also an expert, and when he heard that the reinforced battalion he wanted to hold on to this place for three days, he was a little embarrassed, shook his head and said: "The area of this place is not large, and a reinforced battalion is completely enough to defend, but the main force of the devil is covered by tanks and aircraft artillery, I am afraid that the casualties are too great to support it for three days!" ”

When Han Fei heard this, he frowned and said: "You're right, this is to prove defense, under the absolute superiority of the devil's firepower, it does take a lot of money to support for three days, the problem is that our spy company suffered a lot of casualties in the last operation in Nanjing, and the newly recruited recruits urgently need time for the necessary training, and they don't have time at all, that is, they are pushed into the fire pit." ”

Hearing this, Brigade Commander Huang gritted his back molars: "Old Han, I have a way, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

"Huang Brigade, you just say!"

"My reinforced battalion is the elite of our 79th Army, and it is carefully selected from the entire 79th Army, although the combat effectiveness is still not as good as the special forces of your special service company, but as long as the tactics are used properly and the position is not held to the death, it can still be supported for a period of time on this 088 height, I mean, can you transfer some officers and brothers from the special service company to come over and help me command this reinforced battalion?" Brigade Commander Huang came out with this reinforced battalion this time, and he patted his chest with Commander Li and promised that he would say that he would live and die with the position, since the words came out, this military order was not a child's play, and it must be honored, and now when he heard that Han had to ask him to defend the 088 Heights for three days, he knew that he had a few catties and taels under his command.

He also understands that no matter how he and his reinforced battalion brothers fight, it is unlikely that they will be able to block the onslaught of the devil aircraft and artillery on the 088 high ground for three days, and he who has made a military order with Commander Li, if he can't complete this task of sticking to the high ground, then what awaits him will be the most severe military punishment, in order to save his life, he decided to let Han Fei send some officers to assist him in commanding, so that he may be able to support some more time.

Han Fei nodded and said, "This is no problem, but your subordinates must obey the command, otherwise it will be in vain, and it will cause chaos." ”

As soon as Brigade Commander Huang heard that Han Fei had agreed to his request, he felt that as long as Han Fei's officers came over, for the sake of his subordinates, Han Fei would definitely draw troops to relieve the siege at that time, as for this issue of command, since he had already taken the initiative to raise it, it would not be a problem, as long as he could fight well and support the position for more than three days, who would command him?

Han Fei asked people to find Liu Ruye and Haizi, and asked the two of them to take a few capable men to follow Brigade Commander Huang to the 088 heights. didn't take it seriously, and later followed Brigade Commander Huang to the 088 Heights to see the terrain and terrain, and "chuckled" in his heart: "It's over, this kind of low terrain can block the devil covered by aircraft and artillery for three days?" Although there are some highlands, but it is not a mountain, nor a hill, but a large mound, the big mound that was piled up when digging the river before, the soil is soft, and the water can come out of the place when digging a pit, it is better than the flat land, and such terrain can block the attack of the devil? I don't know what Han Fei thinks?

But Liu Ruye and Haizi don't want to show their inner worries in front of Brigade Commander Huang, doesn't this make people look down on themselves? Looking at Brigade Commander Huang, a major general, his attitude towards the two of them, he must not say anything that is not good for defense, isn't that a loss of face for Han Fei?

Although the pits are all bubbling out of the water, but the trenches still have to be dug, it is better to stand in the trenches with water than to lie on the flat ground and be bombarded and shot by devils, there is a river leading from the Yangtze River next to it, you can dig a diversion canal to guide the water seeping out of the trenches to the river, besides, it is still a cold winter, it is estimated that there should not be much water, and the brothers of the reinforced battalion in addition to digging trenches and building fortifications, in the area of a few miles around the heights, lay mines and obstacles, dig anti-tank trenches and pits, Modify anti-aircraft machine guns, set up lookout sentries, and make all preparations to defend against the devils.

In fact, Liu Ruye and Haizi's killing moves are not these frontal defenses, he and Brigade Commander Huang both understand that if they can rely on these frontal fortifications to block the devil's attack, then Nanjing City will not be conquered by the devils so easily, the devil's main force hopes most is to fight this face-to-face positional war of attrition with them, they have aircraft and naval artillery, what does the Chinese army have?
