The two fellow villagers were still talking endlessly. Although the two were in the same brigade, they had obviously not seen each other for a long time. For Zhang Shun, what he cared about most was when the battle would be over.
"Our Jingshan position has been lost, and now we have retreated to Fujiazhuang!" Zhang Shun told Staff Wang, and asked him at the same time: "How about the Gushan side you went to?"
Staff Wang shook his head and said with some emotion: "Battle Commander Sun doesn't know how to fight, I'm afraid Gushan won't be able to defend it!"
Zhang Shun was a little surprised and asked: "Battle Commander Sun is also an old man from the 18th Brigade. Why doesn't he know how to fight?"
Staff Officer Wang was very helpless and said: "Captain Sun and his battalion are engineering battalions. They are quite good at building fortifications, digging trenches, and building roads, but they are not good at fighting these communist bandits. Their engineering battalion has never fought with the communist bandits." They fought against each other!"
"So that's it!" Zhang Shun nodded.
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Lei Ting and Cao Shuang looked at each other and nodded. Lei Ting intervened and asked: "Since the engineering battalion has never fought in a war, why was it sent to Gushan Mountain?"
Staff Officer Wang glanced at him and didn't want to say more, but he didn't want to hurt Zhang Shun's face, so he said truthfully: "This Gushan position is a solitary peak, surrounded by flat land, and has a wide field of vision, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. It turns out that the brigade commander thought that it would be enough to send only one company of troops, but Director Zhang Xian and Commander Hu both thought that the strength of one company was too small. The brigade commander had to increase the strength of one battalion. However, the strength of our 18th Brigade was also extremely small. It¡¯s limited, there¡¯s no other way, that¡¯s why Brigadier Qin sent this engineering battalion up!¡±
Lei Ting nodded. Zhang Xian and Hu Congjun¡¯s judgment was correct. This Gushan Mountain is condescending. Although it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, if it is not taken seriously, it will be lost. The consequence of losing Gushan is that the position near Gaozhuang of the 18th Brigade will be completely exposed to the opponent's artillery attack. It seems that at this time, Brigadier Qin still does not take Gushan seriously. This may really give the People's Liberation Army an excellent opportunity!
Counselor Wang chatted with Zhang Shun for a while before leaving. However, the waiting time was so long that Lei Lei and Cao Shuang could not sit still and encouraged Zhang Shun to take them to the 53rd Regiment on the south bank of the Yi River to find the brigade commander. At first, Zhang Shun was very persuasive and told them to be patient. But seeing that it was getting later and later, and the rain outside had stopped, Lei Lei and Cao Shuang were even more anxious. The time they agreed with Wang Dahu was to go back and report to him before dark. If they could not arrive as scheduled, it would inevitably have consequences. to the Tiger Regiment¡¯s battle plan.
At that moment, Lei Lei stood up and said to Zhang Shun: "Squad Leader Zhang, if it gets dark, the People's Liberation Army will definitely launch another attack, and my fellow comrades will definitely be pushed up to die. It's better to go find Brigadier Qin quickly." Well, if I can make it in time, I would like to go back and find more people to come over!"
"Yes!" Cao Shuang also stood up, looking very anxious.
Zhang Shun thought for a moment, nodded, and said: "Okay, let's cross the river to find the brigade commander!"
The three of them were about to report to the deputy chief of the brigade when Staff Wang came out of the brigade. It turned out that after he reported the situation in Gushan to the chief of staff, the chief of staff believed that the situation was very serious and that a real combat battalion should be sent there. But he couldn't make the decision, so he asked Staff Officer Wang to go to the headquarters of the 53rd Regiment in person to report to Brigadier Qin. When he heard that Staff Officer Wang was also going to see the brigade commander, Zhang Shun immediately asked the deputy commander to go together, and the deputy commander of course agreed.
But Lei Lei and Cao Shuang felt that something was wrong. If Staff Wang really had to report the situation in Gushan to Brigadier Qin, and once Brigadier Qin understood the situation and changed the Gushan position to a combat camp, then those The attacking PLA troops will definitely increase casualties and may not be able to capture it at all.
At the moment, Lei Ting thought he had to report to Xu Guang, and before the enemy changed defenses, he immediately stormed the Gushan position and captured it in one fell swoop. He quietly hinted to Cao Shuang. Cao Shuang was a very smart man and quickly understood Lei Ting's thoughts. However, at this time, the two of them were brought to the edge of the Yi River by Counselor Wang and Zhang Shun, preparing to cross the river to the south bank.
At this time, the Yihe River has swollen after the heavy rain, and the floods from the mountains have also poured out. The places that can be walked through on weekdays have become rapid shoals. The water is turbulent, and all the previously exposed tidal flats have been Flooded. There was a bridge made of stone slabs between Gaozhuang and Nan'an. At this time, it was all submerged in the swollen river water. Only the paths on the two banks could be vaguely distinguished. Along this road, the bridge should be located. But the people of the 18th Brigade had obviously thought of the difficulty of crossing the river, so they pulled a long hemp rope between the two banks and tied it to the big trees on both sides.?But it was extremely busy beeping.
As soon as they saw Zhang Xian walking in, everyone raised their heads and glanced at him. Without waiting for Zhang Xian to ask, Hu Congjun stood up and said to him: "Zhang Xian, you came just in time, I have something to see you." !¡±
"What's going on?" Zhang Xian asked quickly.
"Come here and take a look at our defense map!" Hu Congjun pointed at the map spread out on the table and greeted him.
Zhang Xian walked to the table.
Hu Congjun drew on the map with a lead smile, removing the positions that had been lost yesterday. At this time, the defense line had shrunk by one point, but became more compact.
"Look, this is the east, and the enemy has not advanced much. We have only lost the forward position from Shagou to Qianya; this is the north, and now we are still holding positions here in Lishan, Beima, and Wangjiashan. , the enemy has not advanced an inch; this is the south, although we have lost Malian Mountain, the defense line has become more compact. Now the enemy's focus is the Guquan Village in Liangmi Mountain. I think it will be very fierce here tonight." Hu Congjun While drawing and talking, he finally stopped at the Eighteenth Brigade in Gaozhuang and said to Zhang Xian: "In the entire west, the Eighteenth Brigade has a larger area. We have lost Jingshan. At this time, Gu Mountain and Tashan have become Gaozhuang's barriers, and here, Fujiazhuang, may be the focus of the enemy's attack tonight!"
Zhang Xian nodded, but then asked: "Commander, how is the battle on the south bank of Yihe River?"
"The 53rd Regiment fought with the enemy all day long on the south bank of the Yihe River. Here, from Nan Liujiazhuang to the west to the east of Nanbu, we are still in our hands. It's just that the enemy attacked Canglianggu in the west too fiercely, so Brigadier Qin took part of his troops from Nanliujiazhuang in the east and sent them to the west!" Hu Congjun told Zhang Xian.
Zhang Xian couldn't help but frowned.
"Every key point is still stable now!" Hu Congjun finally said: "Just from this defense map, I always feel that something is not quite right!"
Zhang Xian also looked at the picture carefully and felt that what Hu Congjun said was right. He also felt that there seemed to be some omission, but he couldn't see it.
"How many troops are there in Nanliujiazhuang now?" He asked Commander Hu.
"A reinforced company!"
"Is it a little missing?" Zhang Xian asked Hu Congjun.
Hu Congjun hesitated for a moment, but felt helpless: "It's a little less, but there are only so many troops. If you want more, you won't be able to get more!"
Zhang Xian also thought for a moment, and finally said: "It would be fine to put a reinforcement company there. After all, it is the south bank of the Yi River. There is also a regiment of the 11th Brigade in Beiliujiazhuang on the north bank of the Yi River. Even if the enemy captures the south bank, Even in Liujiazhuang, they can¡¯t cross the river!¡±
"Yes!" Hu Congjun nodded. It seemed that he thought so at the beginning. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
