At half past seven in the morning, Chen Jie concentrated on the reconnaissance platoon of the independent battalion and said: "Lin Tiande, Lu Guangyao, you two listen well: there is no army without fellow villagers!" Protecting the safety of our fellow villagers is the most important combat mission for our Rehe Front. If a fellow is left behind, Lao Tzu will ask you! ”

"After completing the task, you will immediately march north in concealment and rapidity, and rush to the Zhangwu line tonight, and cross the river on the Gaoshantai line on the west side of the Liuhe River, and I will send someone to meet you. Now you are all little devils, military uniforms and weapons, Lao Tzu will see if you can be scouts today! Let's go! ”

For the reconnaissance platoon to carry out this escort mission, Chen Jie, who was born as a scout, was not worried at all. These soldiers originally belonged to the Northeast Army, and now they are operating on their own territory, at least they will not get lost. If these guys are a little smarter, they can walk sideways with this skin on their bodies.

After the villagers left, Chen Jie called Weng Shiming, Zhang Minghan, and Gao Jingxiang, the principal and deputy battalion commanders, aside and reported the operational objectives of seizing Zhangwu County and occupying the railway station this evening.

"Deputy division commander, everyone is familiar with Zhangwu Station, it turns out that when we entered the customs to fight, we all got on the train there." Weng Shiming nodded and said, "There are no high walls in Zhangwu County, and the attack is not complicated. If it wanted to take the lead in seizing the railway station, the reconnaissance platoon did not have to return directly, but went north along the railway from Xinlitun, and touched the railway bridge at about 11 o'clock in the evening to kill the bridgehead garrison of the little devils. ”

"To be on the safe side, we need a force to meet on the other side of the river. Once the reconnaissance platoon fights with the little devils, this side will carry out a flanking attack, which can be foolproof. After destroying the little devil's bridgehead garrison, go three kilometers north along the railway to the railway station. There were no defenses there, and I don't know if the little devil built a bunker. ”

Chen Jie nodded and said, "Because the southwest is the Liuhe River, the southwest side of the railway station is open, isn't it?" ”

"Yes, that's exactly what happened." Weng Shiming nodded and said: "If we want to attack Zhangwu County, we need to set off immediately to rush to Zhou Huozi, and then leave a platoon to wait for the reconnaissance platoon to come over and seize the iron bridge together." The large army managed to cross the river north and block the enemy in the direction of Gongzhutun. ”

Chen Jie had never entered the Zhangwu Railway Station, and he was not at all familiar with the situation inside. Hearing Weng Shiming's words, he immediately called Zheng Zhikuan, the commander of the second company, and Ma Chongde, the commander of the third company, over, and then said to Weng Shiming: "You are the head snake of the land, you are familiar with the situation here, just tell your thoughts!" ”

Weng Shiming was not polite, picked up a dead branch and drew a picture on the ground, while saying: "We are in Daheigangzi, 40 kilometers northwest is Xinlitun. As far as I know, there is a squad of devils here to defend the station. Once Zhangwu County is attacked, the devils here will definitely reinforce it. So, we now set off to Yaojiabao in the north, and then split into two routes. ”

A platoon rushed west to the back hill east of Shijiazi to hide, and at night seized the high ground on the southern slope of the railway, preparing to block the devils from Xinlitun. The large force continued to the north to reach Zhoujiahuozi, and then divided a platoon to advance westward, rushing to the Lujialiang Heights on the edge of the railway to conceal while waiting for the reconnaissance platoon to come. ”

"The large army hid until it was dark and crossed the Liuhe River, leaving a company to build a position east of the shack of the house, ready to block the devils coming out of Tieling and Hushitai. The rest of the men were still divided into two routes, one with the reconnaissance platoon to attack the bridgehead, and the other from the east to attack the county seat. After driving the enemy out, meet at the train station. ”

Chen Jie looked at the map drawn by Weng Shiming on the ground and pondered for a long time, and then said: "Now these cars must not be able to cross the river, just when they are in Yaojiabao, let the machine gun company go out in a row of 3 cars, and according to what you said, they will rush to the back mountain of Shijiazi, and the other cars will rush from Zhouhuozi to Lujialiang Heights." I look at these two places, how about letting the two deputy battalion commanders personally command? ”

Weng Shiming nodded and said: "They have been around here for a long time, the roads are familiar, and they know a lot of friends, so there is no problem in carrying out this task." The most important thing now is to find the boat in the area of the Zhou family's camels. Otherwise, our infantry artillery and mortars would not have been able to transport it at all. Once the attack is blocked, the intensity of the firepower is only afraid that it will not be enough. ”

Several people agreed that Weng Shiming's plan was very thorough, and Zuihou finalized a plan of action based on his opinions:

The independent battalion was responsible for taking the railway bridge over the Liuhe River, and then moving north along the railway to flank the enemy at the railway station, and at the same time blocking possible reinforcements from the Xinlitun line to the south;

After the third company of Task Force Ma Chongde crossed the Liuhe River, it seized the high ground east of Yujia's shack to build fortifications to block reinforcements from the front line of Tieling and Hushitai;

The 1st and 2nd companies of the task force served as the main attack, directly raiding the county seat and the railway station!

The only thing Chen Jie did not explain about all these deployments was that there would be a main force that would appear on the battlefield, that is, a complete cavalry battalion led by Guan Xingguo, a regiment of the Guards Division!

On the one hand, Guan Xingguo's battalion needed to block the reinforcements from Tongliao, and it couldn't let its soldiers have any dependence. On the other hand, the dispatch of Guan Xingguo's department is top secret, and the fewer people who know about it, the better.

Because according to Bai Shujie's action plan, Chen Jie's task force is to serve as an assist, and it is more to deal with special situations that may arise.

Therefore, Chen Jie concealed the truth and made everyone think that he must rely on his liliang to win the hard bone of Zhangwu, and there is no way out!

He also did not make it clear what his unit should do after the battle was completed. Only in this way can we put on a broken jiashi and inspire everyone's determination to move forward!

Press Chen Jie here to stimulate the will of his subordinates to fight, and carry out pre-war planning and layout, not to mention for the time being.

It is said that Hou Zide had just received the order to "closely monitor the return of the Sixth Division to the east and not to take the initiative to attack", and only two hours later, another order arrived!

"With the strength of no less than two cavalry battalions, Hou Zide's division stealthily penetrated to the north of the Alu Korqin Banner, and then hurried south to attack the 3rd Cavalry Brigade of the 26th Wing; A machine-gun battalion and an anti-aircraft battalion were interspersed from the Horse Frame Fortress and dealt a fatal blow to the mounted artillery brigade in front of them! The remaining machine-gun battalion and an anti-aircraft battalion served as reserves, monitoring the 6th Division returning east and assisting in the defense of the fortress. ”

Hou Zide, the commander of the second division, Du Guangyuan, the deputy division commander, and Dai Sen Dari looked at this order, and their eyes suddenly began to shine: This is a two-way attack, one way to the rear of the palace! Now three people, how to assign combat missions, this is a big question!

"Let's not talk about anything else, if you want to talk about the familiarity with the grassland, Lao Hou won't talk about it, Lao Du is definitely not as good as me!" Daisen Dari patted the back of his head and said, "So no matter what, I am the only one who is most suitable to lead two cavalry battalions to attack." As for striking the mounted artillery brigade on the opposite side, that's the matter of the two of you. But let me remind you, there is also a reinforced squadron of cavalry on the side of the mounted artillery brigade! ”

Hou Zide said helplessly: "Aren't you two guys just worried that I will lead the team personally?" Okay, let the two of you attack this time, Lao Tzu will wipe your ass, okay! The Seventh Regiment of the Naiman Banner is now on fire with the little devils in the Second Cavalry Brigade of the Kulun Banner, and it is estimated that it will not be easy. The troops we can move are the 8th Regiment of the Left Banner of Bahrain and the 9th Regiment of Tuchengzi. ”

The reason why Hou Zide agreed to Daisen Dayi to lead his troops to attack was because the Ninth Regiment of the Left Banner of Bahrain was the Manchurian and Mongolian brigade brought out by the original Gadamerin. The regiment commander Dari Achi and the deputy regiment commander Batel are all old subordinates of Gadamerin, and the cavalry battalion commander of the ninth regiment is Daisen Dari's brother: Daichin!

The eighth regiment is the shelf of the original Du Guangyuan's third brigade, and the regiment commander Cao Zhijian is still the distant nephew of Cao Fengxiang, the current governor of Rehe Province! Wu Yuanhua, the deputy head of the regiment, turned out to be the old buddies who ran out of Du Guangyuan from the Northeast Army, and they were all iron-beaten brothers!

The so-called brothers in war, fathers and sons in battle, now is the right time!

The 7th Regiment on the front line of the Naiman Banner, while competing with the 26th Cavalry Brigade of the 26th Wing of the Little Devil, also had to guard against the 1st Cavalry Brigade of Zhangwu, which was the unit that Hou Zide originally started, the 2nd Brigade of the Youyan Anti-Japanese Detachment!

Hou Zide belonged to the first old man to follow Bai Shujie, and he knew Bai Shujie's character well. Now let the two guys go out because he knows it very well: since Bai Shujie has made such a big determination, it will definitely not be "tickle the little devil"! These current actions, if they don't do well, are just beating the side drums, and the real big battle should be behind!

However, Bai Shujie can only use the mobile force of the Guards Division, in case of an unexpected situation, the remaining two battalions of Hou Zide's Second Division and the heavy artillery regiment of Cheng Shijie's Second Garrison Division are all strategic reserves of Zuihou, and they must undertake the task of fighting fires!

Because the headquarters of the 26th Wing of the Little Devil is in Tongliao, there is a machine gun brigade and a heavy artillery brigade in the directly subordinate troops, and there are two mounted artillery brigades of the cavalry artillery wing in Kailu.

If these enemies swarm, it will not be an ordinary contact battle, but a battle to the death! If there is no strong reserve, there is no dare to do it casually.

The so-called monkey spirit monkey spirit, that is talking about the ghost spirit spirit of Hou Zide!

At six o'clock in the afternoon of April 5, 1935, Xia Enze, the former commander-in-chief of the Guards Division, had already concentrated all his troops on standby, and they were the protagonists of tonight's singing.

At the same time, take Kulun Banner and Zhangwu County, and kill the first and second cavalry brigades of the 26th Wing, it depends on whether Xia Enze's actions can be "as fast as wind and rain, as fast as lightning"!

The reorganized Fourth Brigade of Independent Cavalry is no longer the light cavalry when Kannosuke Motegi was the brigade commander, but a genuine heavy cavalry!

Having learned the lesson of Kennosuke Motegi's fiasco, the little devil also increased his firepower against this cavalry brigade. Each squad has increased from 3 LMG guns to 12! One squadron is 48, and one brigade is 144 light machine guns, which is just twice as many as the 72 light machine guns of Bai Shujie's cavalry battalion!

However, Xia Enze's guards division has completed the rearmament, and the Czech light machine gun and the crooked pendulum light machine gun have all withdrawn from the battle sequence, and now they are all 47-round Drums of the Deg Galev light machine gun (plate machine gun)!

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
