Liu Hua told the political commissar what he thought before sending the report to Mr. He.
"Okay, legion commander, if this is the case, then our base area will be doubled, so that we will have more room for maneuver when the enemy forces encircle and suppress the base area in the future." The political commissar became furious after hearing the legion commander's analysis.
He slapped the table and startled Liu Hua.
"Political Commissar, don't get excited. Take a look. This is a telegram from Mr. He." He handed over a telegram.
"Okay! Legion commander, you actually laid an ambush for me," the political commissar said with a smile after reading the telegram.
"No, political commissar, how dare I? Didn't I ask you to come back for discussion? Haha, political commissar, I sent the cavalry company out last night to investigate the enemy situation near Cili, and the first division set off early this morning
, I asked Director Li Qing to follow up with the seized materials and ammunition, what do you think?" Liu Hua looked at the political commissar and said.
"Well, I think it works. When will the Third Division and the Second Division take action?" the political commissar raised his head and asked.
"Political Commissar, where is Xue Yue now? Where is the location of the Second Division?" Liu Hua spread out a captured map and asked.
"Xue Yue entered Shimen Bridge today. He should have already known that Changde was captured by us. The offensive this afternoon was very fierce. The Second Division is between Shimen Bridge and Changde. I don't know the specific location?" the political commissar said, pointing to the map.
.
"How about leaving one battalion on the plateau and harassing the enemy all the way tomorrow. The main force will march directly to Cili. We will march tomorrow morning."
"I agree, haha, I haven't seen Mr. He for a few days, and I can finally see him again!" The political commissar laughed.
At dawn the next day, the three divisions in the city began to take action to replenish ammunition and dry food. At the same time, Liu Hua also received a telegram from the cavalry company of the reconnaissance battalion.
"According to investigation, Chen Quzhen retreated to Shimen with two main divisions to rest and recuperate. There are about two divisions with 25,000 people. Cili has two garrison regiments with 3,800 people. The garrison troops in several nearby towns are each in one battalion."
After reading the telegram, Liu Hua quickly asked the operator to forward the telegram to Mr. He who was on his way to Cili. After a while, he received a call back from Mr. He. "We will meet up at Yanbodu."
After reading the telegram, Liu Hua quickly called the political commissar to discuss the next march route.
"Political Commissar, Mr. He wants to join us at Yanbodu. Haha, it seems we have to get there first. I just received a telegram from Mr. Sun. They are now only 40 miles away from Cili. It only takes a few hours.
March, it seems we have to change the battle plan!" Liu Hua said when he saw the political commissar coming.
"Yeah! I think that's it. Let the first division send a regiment to capture Yanbodu, and then send another regiment to cooperate in radiating in all directions to clear out the surrounding enemy troops. How about letting another regiment monitor Cili's enemy troops?"
The political commissar looked at the map on the table and said.
"Yes, I agree. Staff Officer Li will send a report to Mr. Sun in accordance with the wishes of the political commissar." Liu Hua thought for a while and ordered.
"Let's go, political commissar, it's time for us to set off." Liu Hua said while looking at the soldiers organizing the headquarters.
The two of them walked out of the headquarters together, rode their war horses, caught up with the Third Division and headed towards Cili.
"Division Commander, there is a call from the Corps Headquarters." The communications staff handed Sun Xingbang a telegram. Sun Xingbang glanced at it and looked at the spread out map.
"Order the first regiment to turn to the direction of Yanbodu and annihilate all the enemy defenders. The second regiment marches towards Longtan River and annihilate all the defenders. Remember, the enemy defenders must be killed quietly and they cannot send out a message for help.
, please cut off the phone line first. The third regiment continues to march in the direction of Cili. Your task is to monitor the Cili defenders. If there is any situation, report to me immediately. You can bring a radio station there, and I will advance with the first regiment.
Execute it immediately." After saying the order, Sun Xingbang rushed towards the first regiment with the guard company and other directly affiliated units.
After an afternoon of marching, we finally arrived near Yanbodu at five o'clock and joined forces with the soldiers of the cavalry company of the reconnaissance battalion who came to meet us.
"Captain Zhou, how is the enemy situation at Yanbodu?" Sun Xingbang ignored the pleasantries and asked about the enemy situation.
"Report to the division commander, there is a battalion of defenders inside, there is no radio, and the heavy weapons are only three heavy machine guns." Company Commander Zhou quickly reported what he knew.
A battalion of troops wanted to kill him quietly. Sun Xingbang first thought of the reconnaissance company and guard company around him. "Captain Zhou, how many people are there in your reconnaissance camp?" Sun Xingbang focused on the reconnaissance camp.
.
"Reporting to Commander Sun, there is only one platoon here. Is there any mission?"
Sun Xingbang smiled when he heard about the strength of a platoon. You must know that the reconnaissance battalion is the best soldier in the whole army. They should be very familiar with the terrain here. With their help, they can definitely wipe out the defenders silently.
"Company Commander Zhou, can you lead the way for our reconnaissance company and guard company and strive to completely annihilate the defenders quietly." Sun Xingbang looked at Captain Zhou.
"Yes, I promise to complete the task."
"Okay, I ordered a regiment except the reconnaissance platoon to surround me in the town. From now on, only entry is allowed and no exit is allowed. The guard company, reconnaissance company, and reconnaissance platoon of the first regiment will each be led by a squad from the guard battalion.
Enter the town and strive to annihilate the enemy silently. It is best not to shoot." After Sun Xingbang gave the order, the various ministries immediately began to move.
After two hours of preparation, it was already dark, the surroundings were dark, and there was no sound. Captain Zhou quietly led his squad and the guard company to the entrance of the town. Two sentries walked around with guns on their backs.
, or say a few words, slowly, maybe the two sentries were tired, so they sat back to back to keep warm.
Company Commander Zhou and a soldier who knew martial arts lay on the ground and crawled forward slowly. Slowly, they got closer and closer. The two sentries may have been really tired. When they were still ten meters away, they suddenly started fighting.
After snoring and getting off, Captain Zhou jumped. After confirming that the two of them were asleep, Captain Zhou quietly stood up and walked over slowly. The soldiers next to him began to approach in the same way.
"Who is it?" A sentry suddenly felt a voice next to him and asked quickly. Just when he was about to open his eyes to see what happened, he could no longer scream. Captain Zhou touched the back of the tool and suddenly covered his mouth.
He pierced his heart with a sharp dagger, and just like that, the sentry fell to the ground with blank eyes. The soldier next to him also killed the sentry in his arms, but the method was slightly different. He directly cut the sentry's throat.
