    The direction from Xintai to Mengyin is relatively flat, but after passing Changlu Town, there will be undulating mountains.  When they first arrived at Jianyang Town, the sound of gunfire rang out in front of them, and the entire team stopped involuntarily.

    The radio receiver came with a report from Wang Yuanling, commander of the 118th Brigade: "Master's seat, Communist troops have been spotted ahead!"

    "How many are there?" Hu Congjun asked into the walkie-talkie.

    "The strength of the troops is unclear, but they occupied the high hills on both sides of the road and fired at us to stop our advance!"

    Hu Congjun thought deeply for a moment and said to Wang Yuanling: "That must be the enemy force that wants to stop our advance. Brigadier Wang, you immediately send someone to clear the obstruction for me. We must arrive at Changlu Town before noon.  Get to Mengyin City before it gets dark!"

    "Yes!" Wang Yuanling agreed.

    Looking at Hu Congjun¡¯s anxious expression, Zhang Xian also knew the urgency in his heart at this time. He didn¡¯t know what the situation was going to be like. If he arrived earlier, victory would be secured earlier.  It's just that at this time, he himself was actually more anxious than Hu Congjun. After all, for Hu Congjun, the reorganization of the 74th Division was just a friendly force, but for him, the reorganization of the 74th Division was also the place where he had grown up and fought.  team.

    The operator ran over with an urgent telegram and loudly reported to the division commander: "Master, please prepare an urgent telegram from General Zhang Linfu, commander of the 74th Division!"

    Hu Congjun and Zhang Xian were stunned for a moment at the same time. Hu Congjun took the telegram first. After reading it for a while, his face turned livid, and he handed it to Zhang Xian beside him.

    Zhang Xian received the telegram, which read: "Our unit is surrounded by enemies in Menglianggu. The brigade and regimental commanders and other commanders have suffered many casualties and are unable to break out. The situation is very critical. I hope that my brother will come to the rescue as soon as possible!"  The signature is Zhang Linfu's name.

    Seeing this telegram, Zhang Xian felt that his hands and feet were cold. He knew that Zhang Linfu was a very strong and arrogant person. If he was not forced to have no choice, he would not ask for help easily.  At this time, he should also know that the 11th Reorganized Division was not close to his position. The telegram for help could be sent here. One reason was his trust in Hu Congjun and the 11th Reorganized Division. The other reason must be that the 70th Reorganized Division must have been reorganized.  The friendly forces near the Fourth Division failed to rescue!

    While Zhang Xian was holding the telegram blankly as if in a dream, Hu Congjun had already reflected it and dictated a request to the telegraph operator to call Zhang Linfu back: "Our troops have rushed south from Xintai and are breaking through the enemy's blockade in Qianyang."  , I hope that brother will persist for two more days, and our troops will definitely arrive! I wish you a triumphant return!"

    The radio operator took the order and left. Zhang Xian was already anxious. It looked like the reorganization of the 74th Division was at the end of its rope. He was afraid that if the rescue was too late, the result would be the same as the 57th Division.

    "Master, the reorganized 74th Division must have been unable to support itself, so it sent us a telegram asking for help. We'd better go south as soon as possible!" Zhang Xian said to Hu Congjun, his words already full of words.  eager.

    Hu Congjun nodded. He and Zhang Linfu were from the same hometown and Huangpu graduates in the same field. Although they did not develop in the same army, their relationship on weekdays was still reasonable.  What's more, in the battle at Suqian, the reorganization of the 74th Division did a big favor to the reorganization of the 11th Division.

    Immediately, Hu Congjun said to the messenger: "Go and call Brigadier Yang of the 11th Brigade and Brigadier Qin of the 18th Brigade to the division headquarters!"

    The messenger left in response.

    Hu Congjun then said to Zhang Xian: "I plan to clear the road with the 118th Brigade. After breaking through the enemy's defense line, I will take the 18th Brigade as the vanguard and gallop towards Mengyin City. At the same time, the 118th Brigade will be responsible for the escort after breaking through."  Both sides. We follow closely behind the 11th Brigade and ignore the blocking Communist troops! This way, we can save a lot of time."

    Zhang Xian nodded. It seemed that Mr. Hu was as anxious as he was.

    Deputy Commander Zhang next to him was hesitant and asked, "Teacher, is this too risky?"

    "Why did you take the risk?" Hu Congjun asked him.

    Deputy Commander Zhang said: "We haven't yet figured out the enemy's situation clearly, so we rush forward desperately. I'm afraid I will fall into the trap of the Communist army!"

    Hu Congjun rolled his eyes at him and said disdainfully: "In normal times, your worries would be quite reasonable. But the situation today is different!"

    "Oh?" Deputy Commander Zhang was a little confused.

    Zhang Xian quickly explained to him: "The master is right. The one who can surround the reorganized 74th Division must be the main force of the Communist Army. I'm afraid the Communist Army has already invested all its forces at this time."?.

    "Let's use artillery fire first!" Zhang Xian suggested.

    Wang Yuanling nodded and told him: "I think so too, so at this time, the sound of cannons you hear is from us!"

    "Let's go and take a look together! Maybe there is another way!" Zhang Xian suggested to his old boss.

    Wang Yuanling agreed and explained some matters at the brigade headquarters. He took Chief of Staff Long Tianya and followed Zhang Xian out of the temporary command post located in a teahouse on the side of the road.

    This highway comes out from Xintai City in the north, and in front of it to the south is Changlu Town, which is exactly the midway point from Xintai to Mengyin.  To the east of this road are several rolling hills, not too high, but connected together. There are some sparse woods on the mountains, and there are crop fields planted by local villagers on the mountainside. Rice and wheat are not produced here, and most of them are  What I grew was sweet potatoes, which Shandong people call sweet potatoes.  On the west side of the road, there is a small river that meanders from north to south. This direction is open and flat.

    The group of people came to a nearby hill and climbed to the top of the mountain. From a distance through the telescope, they could see soldiers running back and forth busy on the Communist position. They also had artillery, and artillery fire hit them from the east mountain behind them.  It came down and exploded in front of the National Army's troops, rising into the sky with a cloud of thick smoke. However, it was drowned in the explosion by the National Army's more violent artillery fire.

    ¡°That¡¯s their position over there!¡± Chief of Staff Long Tianya told Zhang Xian, pointing to the messy area in front of the highway.

    Zhang Xian raised his telescope and looked over there. Sure enough, it was just as Wang Yuanling said. The entire road had been dug up by them. Even if they captured this position, it would take time to fill in the road. The vehicles of the national army  Only then can we pass, otherwise we can only rely on two legs!

    Beyond the Communist position, you can see a relatively large village in front of the road from a distance. From there, you can see many people coming in and out, some carrying stretchers, some carrying ammunition boxes, and some pushing.  I don't know what's on the wheelbarrow.  When Zhang Xian looked again, he found that these people responsible for logistics tasks were not Communist soldiers, but local fellows with white towels on their heads.  Seeing this, he felt very depressed. The Communist Army does not need logistics. Their propaganda work is good and they can always deceive people and make the common people become their logistics army.  However, if the National Government had not had some problems in governing the country, how could it have been possible for the Communist Party to take advantage of it?  These are political issues that he, a soldier, cannot understand, but they have greatly affected the success of the national army in combat.

    "What's the name of that village?" Zhang Xian casually asked Long Tianya beside him.

    "Changlu Town!" Long Tianya told him.

    "Oh?" Zhang Xian was startled for a moment. He had been studying the map here for a long time. Just mentioning a name at this time made him immediately think of where this place was located.

    "Chang Road is the intermediate station from Xintai to Mengyin. There should be a three-way intersection here. There is also a road along the Chai Wen River from here to Guli Town in the west!" Zhang Xian said casually.

    Wang Yuanling and Long Tianya were both surprised. Long Tianya looked at Zhang Xian and couldn't help but admire him: "Axian, you are really a living map!"

    Zhang Xian smiled and said to Wang Yuanling seriously: "Brother, let me see it this way. You use a regiment of troops to make a detour and go down the Chai Wen River. There is a village called Baozhuang. Cross the river there.  Then we can follow a highway eastward to Changlu Town and capture this town. Then the Communist troops in front of us will be attacked from two sides and will definitely retreat without a fight!"

    Wang Yuanling was stunned for a moment, and said with some worry: "There won't be any resistance from the Communist army on that road, right?"

    "There will definitely be!" Zhang Xiandao emphasized at the same time: "We are still attacking their positions fiercely on the front, making them think that we are going to break through forcefully, so we will definitely concentrate all our troops on the front, because there is a river on the side.  As a barrier, they may relax their vigilance because they want to strengthen the security force. I am afraid that at this time, they do not have the military branches. Besides, I believe that the communist troops will not do too much on that road.  After all, the road is a dirt road and cannot pass chariots! So they didn¡¯t expect us to appear from that road.¡±

    Wang Yuanling thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, I will do as you say. I will immediately send Xu Haibo and his 33rd Regiment to take a roundabout route with light equipment!" With that, he was about to return to the command post.

    "There's more!" Zhang Xian suddenly said again.

    "Is there anything else?" Wang Yuanling asked.

    "I think it's better for me to follow Commander Xu!" Zhang Xian suggested.

    Wang Yuanling and Long Tianya were both stunned. Long Tianya said a little uneasily: "Isn't this good? What shall we say when the teacher chases you later?" He was worried about Teacher Hu's blame.

    Zhang Xian smiled and said to him: "You tell the truth!" At the same time, he said to them: "Don't worry, the teacher wishes he could grow wings and fly over here. As long as we can quickly capture  This position allows the 18th Brigade to pass quickly, and no matter how big the mistake is, the division commander will not pursue it!"

    Wang Yuanling and Long Tianya thought for a while and finally nodded.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)?What should we say when the teacher chases you?  "He was worried about Mr. Hu's censure.

    Zhang Xian smiled and said to him: "You tell the truth!" At the same time, he said to them: "Don't worry, the teacher wishes he could grow wings and fly over here. As long as we can quickly capture  This position allows the 18th Brigade to pass quickly, and no matter how big the mistake is, the division commander will not pursue it!"

    Wang Yuanling and Long Tianya thought for a while and finally nodded.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
