Chapter 1502 The head's worry won't be a trivial matter
Songlin Village, Huang Sheng stationed here one day ago.
In the simple headquarters, correspondents came in and out, constantly summarizing the latest situations of each company here.
"Battal Commander, the Second Company reported that their defense line has been built and all the security posts have been released. No one can quietly touch the edge of their defense line." The deputy battalion commander received the document report sent by the correspondent of the Second Company.
.
Huang Sheng picked up the pencil and filled in the last section of the defense line, then looked at the instructor and said: "Lao Teng, this is our last line of defense. Once it is completed, the entire defense line will be completed. As long as the troops rely on the defense line to strengthen their vigilance, I will
We guarantee that not even a single soldier of the Jinsui Army will be able to enter our base area."
Instructor Teng Changyuan was not as optimistic as Huang Sheng. If only one line of defense could block the Shanxi-Sui Army and ensure that the base area was safe, the chief of staff would not fill up the gaps for the Datong Independent Battalion in one day, and would also add a large amount of light and heavy equipment.
Looking at Huang Sheng, he reminded: "Battalion Commander, I'm not worried about the Jinsui Army sneaking into the base area."
"As long as they don't identify themselves, we can treat them as Japanese and puppet agents."
"What I'm most worried about now is that the Jinsui Army will use tricks and outright robbery against us!"
"After all, they are friendly forces. If they plan to rob them openly, should we shoot or not? If we do, how can we control the scale of the battle... This is all troublesome."
Huang Sheng shook his head and replied: "Lao Teng, this is not something we should consider."
"Before departure, the chief of staff told me that the regimental commander would rush here to join us as soon as possible after finishing the negotiations in Datong. Today is the day when the Jinsui Army and our army take over the defense. He will definitely rush here before the Jinsui Army.
.”
"As soon as the group leader arrives, these problems you mentioned will no longer be a problem. The group leader will give us orders on how to fight and what scale to fight."
"The battalion commander, instructor, and regimental commander are here. They have arrived at the entrance of the village!" The guard platoon leader suddenly broke in and reported.
"So soon... Lao Teng, I said Cao Cao would be here soon, but I didn't expect the leader to be here so soon!" Huang Sheng was very happy.
Because once the group leader comes, the pressure on my shoulders is reduced.
As soon as I walked out of the war room, I saw Li Hao walking over in a hurry.
"Reporting to the head of the regiment, the Datong Independent Battalion has been ordered to station here. We have built a defense line and ensure that no Shanxi-Sui Army will be allowed to enter our base area."
Li Hao didn't answer, strode into the war room, and said as he walked: "Let's go in and talk!"
Li Hao's expression was so serious that both Huang Sheng and Teng Changyuan saw a hint of worry in each other's eyes.
Following Li Hao, he walked into the war room and couldn't help but ask: "Captain, is something wrong somewhere?"
Li Hao nodded, walked to the map and replied: "I received the latest information from the commando team on the way."
"The Jin-Sui army that defended Datong was a bit abnormal."
"Except for one main division that took over the position we abandoned and entered Datong as planned, the other two main divisions have divided their forces with unknown targets."
"I have thought about it all the way. The only ones around Datong that are worthy of the Shanxi-Sui Army dispatching two main divisions to deal with it are us and the northwest Shanxi base area."
"And the towns we just demarcated from Datong are the most likely targets for their actions."
"How's it going? Have your defense lines been built?"
Huang Sheng knew that matters that the group leader could take seriously were by no means trivial.
His expression became serious, and he pointed to the map and reported: "There are three roads from Datong into these two towns. Three main companies guard these three roads respectively and establish defense lines based on the favorable terrain."
"Each company also detached a platoon to watch the paths on both sides of the highway to prevent Shanxi-Suiyuan troops from sneaking into the base area through mountain roads and paths, and to cooperate with the inside and outside to seize our defense line."
"The baggage company and the supplementary company serve as reserves and are stationed in the middle of the three lines of defense to reinforce the battlefield at any time."
"The cavalry company is mobile to prepare for emergencies."
Li Hao nodded and asked: "Where is the artillery battery?"
Huang Sheng continued to report: "After being strengthened by the Chief of Staff, the artillery battery now has four 81mm caliber mortars, two 120mm caliber heavy mortars, and two mountain guns, a total of eight artillery pieces. My idea is to dismantle them.
, providing fire support to three main companies respectively."
"Can't dismantle it!" Li Hao denied.
"You have two things to do now: First, order the baggage company and the recruit company to get here immediately!"
Seeing Li Hao pointing at a village not far from the defense line, Huang Sheng looked puzzled.
"The heavy artillery battalion is hiding here!" Li Hao explained.
"After arriving there, the two companies returned to the command of Battalion Commander Yuan Qingfeng of the Heavy Artillery Battalion to assist in the transfer of the Heavy Artillery Battalion."
"No problem..." Huang Sheng replied quickly.
The heavy artillery battalion is the treasure of the garrison. They have chewed off such a hard bone in Datong City, which shows how strong they are.
So in the eyes of battalion commanders like them, any unit can have an accident, but not the heavy artillery battalion.
Maybe one day the heavy artillery battalion will become his life-saving straw.
He immediately ordered the deputy battalion commander beside him: "Old Zhou, go and give them the order yourself."
"The two companies divided their forces into platoons and rushed to this village to report to Commander Yuan of the Heavy Artillery Battalion."
"Everyone must pay attention to confidentiality when marching, so as not to be discovered by the Japanese and puppet agents."
"Although there are no Japanese and puppet troops in Datong that can threaten them, Japanese planes can still come here to bomb us."
"Once the heavy artillery battalion is exposed, the Japanese will definitely blow them up at all costs."
The deputy battalion commander immediately replied: "Don't worry, battalion commander, I will account for all the company and platoon commanders of the two companies."
Huang Sheng nodded, looked at Li Hao and continued to ask: "Captain, what about the second thing?"
"Send out all the reconnaissance troops in your hands." Li Hao ordered.
"The commando team is already keeping an eye on all the Jinsui troops entering Datong, but they have too many troops, so we cannot rule out that some will slip through the net."
"You need to ensure that our scouts are everywhere within the 20 kilometers in front of the defense line."
"As soon as the Jinsui Army enters your reconnaissance area, report it immediately."
"The Jinsui Army must have some ulterior purpose, and this purpose is probably us."
"If we can figure out their plot and attack targets in advance, we can strike first."
Huang Sheng's eyes lit up when he mentioned fighting, and he immediately asked: "Take the initiative to attack the Jinsui Army?"
"Attack you!" Li Hao cursed angrily.
"The Jinsui Army is our friendly army. Now is a critical moment for cooperation in the fight against Japan. If the united front is destroyed because of our recklessness, then the garrison will be the sinner of the entire nation."
"If we can't fight, how can we strike first?" Huang Sheng was puzzled.
"The demonstration will show the Jinsui Army the great strength of our garrison and make them timid before fighting." Li Hao did not hide his thoughts.
