    Liu Xinghua's Xianghe column successfully crossed the Ping-Han Railway. Before dawn, the leading reconnaissance team had returned from the front and reported to him the enemy's movements. The main force of the enemy's reorganized 11th Division traveled northward at night and starry, and its command post  It was located in Shangcai County. The enemy troops also occupied the nearby fortresses and formed a defensive circle around Shangcai.

    Listening to the report of the reconnaissance team leader, Liu Xinghua and Xiong Zhuoran thought for a long time, and Xiong Zhuoran asked again: "Where has the main force of the enemy's reorganized 11th Division reached now?"

    The reconnaissance captain said: "We have eavesdropped on their phone calls. The enemy's 11th Brigade and 118th Brigade have arrived near Shangshui and will soon be able to cross the Yinghe River!"

    Liu Xinghua and Xiong Zhuoran looked at each other, and they both took a breath of air at the same time.  Their mission is to stop the enemy. If the enemy really crosses the Ying River and heads north, they will not be able to pursue them at all.  Even at this time, it was impossible to stop the enemy's 11th Brigade and 118th Brigade.

    "This situation is very critical!" Xiong Zhuoran said to Liu Xinghua.

    Liu Xinghua nodded. Of course he knew this situation. Once the enemy's reinforcements to Kaifeng were in place, their unit's blocking mission would be a complete failure. The result of the Kaifeng battle could be imagined, and even more terrifying possibilities  The People's Liberation Army fighting near Kaifeng will all fall into the enemy's encirclement.

    "What should I do?" Xiong Zhuoran also became anxious. At this moment, he was a little at a loss.

    Liu Xinghua frowned and asked the reconnaissance captain: "Is Hu Congjun in Shangcaicheng?"

    "Yes!" the reconnaissance captain said with certainty: "We eavesdropped on their phone calls, and I even heard his voice!"

    "How many enemy troops are there in Shangcaicheng?" Liu Xinghua asked again.

    "The enemy's 49th Brigade and the headquarters of the enemy's 11th Reorganized Division are all there. It is estimated that there are more than 12,000 people!" the reconnaissance captain told him.

    "So many troops?" Liu Xinghua couldn't help but was stunned for a moment, not believing it.

    The reconnaissance captain said: "It's almost the same. Although the enemy's 49th Brigade is not full of troops, it still has eight or nine thousand people; and the enemy's reorganized 11th Division's division headquarters also has thousands of people. They also have a heavy baggage regiment that has just arrived, plus  As for other miscellaneous units, this troop strength should be said to be a conservative estimate!"

    Liu Xinghua nodded, very satisfied with the work of the reconnaissance team leader. His analysis was indeed good. He immediately praised him and asked him to continue reconnaissance.

    "This is already a critical moment!" Xiong Zhuoran said leisurely: "Old Liu, the plan we made on the road yesterday is no longer feasible and must be re-researched!"

    Liu Xinghua also nodded, but said: "It's just that we don't have this time anymore. The vanguard will soon reach Wuliang Temple and Linzhuang area. If we move further east to Baigui Temple, it will be out of date. If we want to defeat the enemy  With the main force of the reorganized 11th Division brought back, we can only adopt the strategy of surrounding Wei and rescuing Zhao!"

    "You mean to attack Shangcaicheng?" Xiong Zhuoran suddenly understood.

    "Yes!" Liu Xinghua said decisively: "We can only mobilize the enemy if we attack him and save him!"

    Xiong Zhuoran hesitated, thought for a moment, and said worriedly: "Old Liu, with the strength of our column, it is difficult to attack an enemy with a similar strength to ours! What's more, at this time, the enemy is defending  , has already occupied the favorable terrain around Shangcai, I'm just afraid that if we fight it, it will turn into a Nanma!"

    In the Battle of Nanma, the East China Field Army outnumbered the enemy several times, and in the end was completely defeated. The opponent was the enemy's 11th Reorganized Division that occupied Shangcaicheng at this time.

    Liu Xinghua, of course, had heard about the Battle of Nanma, and he was very interested in any battle to reorganize the 11th Division, because he knew that Hu Congjun was also his opponent.

    Now that he heard what Xiong Zhuoran said, Liu Xinghua was really hesitant, but then he thought about it, but there was no other way. At this time, there was only one way to go, and he said at once: "Old Xiong, if you don't fight Cai, you still have to go."  Is there a better way to prevent the enemy from sending reinforcements to Kaifeng?"

    Xiong Zhuoran was stunned for a moment, and could only sigh and said: "Yes, if we continue to pursue the enemy's reinforcements in the northeast direction, firstly, it will be difficult to catch up, and secondly, it will make our troops exhausted and waste their physical energy in vain.  , and it will not achieve the purpose of our battle! But I always feel that our attack on Shangcaicheng is like hitting an egg with a stone, which is a bit difficult!"

    Liu Xinghua smiled contemptuously and said: "The 49th Enemy Brigade is just a newly formed team. It has no combat capabilities at all and is not worthy of fear. The other troops in Shangcaicheng are also logistics troops. Although they are large in number,  But can't fight! Haha, this is also the caseIf a local strength advantage is formed around the enemy, then this battle will be more difficult to fight.  However, he also has his own ideas and his own strategies to fight against the enemy.

    Zhang Xian couldn't understand Commander Hu's order. This wait-and-see situation was actually very dangerous. It reminded him of Song Xianggong who prided himself on being a "teacher of benevolence and righteousness".  After much thought, he finally answered Hu Congjun's call.

    "Military seat, I heard that Liu Xinghua's Xianghe column has moved outside Shangcai City, right?" Zhang Xian asked.

    "Yes!" Hu Congjun answered.

    Zhang Xiandao: "They must be trying to stop us from going to Kaifeng for rescue!"

    "Yes, I think so too!" Hu Congjun still answered so calmly.

    "If Liu Xinghua cannot catch up with us, he will definitely attack Caicheng to force us to return our troops!" Zhang Xian said with certainty.

    "Yes!" Hu Congjun also nodded, but asked him again: "Zhang Xian, do you have any good ideas?"

    Zhang Xian was stunned. In fact, the best way is for Hu Congjun's command to leave Shangcai County and quickly advance northward, leaving the Communist troops far behind.  If Hu Congjun had asked the headquarters to follow the 11th Brigade or the 118th Brigade, there would not have been such a problem. However, Hu Congjun rested for a day and waited for a day for the luggage, and then the Communist troops arrived at the city.  At this time, it is already impossible to quickly leave Shangcaicheng and cross the Honghe River to reach the 11th Brigade. The top priority is to stabilize one's position first.

    Thinking of this, Zhang Xian said: "Military seat, if you don't let our two brigades advance, are you planning to make us turn back?"

    Hu Congjun smiled and suddenly said to Zhang Xian: "Zhang Xian, Liu Xinghua's Xianghe column is quite annoying. We have eaten it in one bite several times and escaped from our mouths again and again. Don't you think so?"  Don¡¯t you want to get rid of him?¡±

    Zhang Xian couldn't help but was stunned, and suddenly understood Hu Congjun's intentions.

    "Zhang Xian, have you read the book "Speaking of the Tang Dynasty"?" Hu Congjun suddenly mentioned an unrelated topic.

    Zhang Xian nodded and said, "I have seen it before, when I was young!"

    "Haha, do you know what Luo Cheng's most powerful trick is?" Hu Congjun asked.

    "Return!" Zhang Xian blurted out, and when he said these three words, he immediately understood Hu Congjun's intention!

    There is a plot in "Speaking of the Tang Dynasty" where Luo Cheng and Qin Shubao are cousins. When they taught each other their own martial arts, they both had an extra thought. Qin Shubao did not teach Luo Cheng the Qin family's "killer", and Luo Cheng also  There is no "returning gun" taught to the Luo family.

    The so-called back-spur does not mean turning back to stab, but returning the spur.  It is to deliberately lure the enemy general to pursue, and when the enemy general's weapon attacks his back, he takes the opportunity to turn the horses' heads so that the heads of the two horses are 90 degrees relative to each other. At this time, the two generals almost become  They were face to face, but at this time, the enemy general's moves were old and his weapons had not been pulled back to resist. He was unable to defend himself and was stabbed on his horse.  Turning back means turning defeat into victory, but there is a prerequisite, which is to first put yourself in a very dangerous situation, so that the enemy feels that victory is in hand and loses their guard; secondly, you must also grasp the timing and heat to prevent the opponent from being able to see through it.  ; Of course, there is another important point in the end, that is, the general and the war horse must be well integrated.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
