Standing on the riverside position that the communist army had abandoned on the north bank of the Huihe River, Zhang Xian couldn't help but take a breath of air as he looked at these enemy fortifications that had not experienced war or been damaged. If these defense systems were equipped with sufficient firepower and personnel, there is no problem in blocking the 11th Division for one to two days. One of the problems explained here is that the enemy's withdrawal this time was not at all what Commander Yang Tao had guessed. It was because the 11th Division had already broken through. Huihe, attacked their backs, they were retreating in an organized and purposeful manner!
Thinking of this, Zhang Xian couldn't help but feel nervous.
It was at this time that Xiong Sanwa came to see him with Captain Qiao Shuqiang of the search team.
Captain Qiao has always had a feeling of respect and gratitude for the commander of the 11th Division, so as soon as he saw that the 11th Division was moving smoothly and Zhang Xian had some free time, he immediately came over to see him.
It was already past seven o'clock in the evening, which was actually not too late. The winter night came very early, and at half past five, it was almost completely dark.
Zhang Xian also had some surprises when he met Captain Qiao Shuqiang. He had long known that he had gone to Suxian County with a group of search team members for reconnaissance, so when he saw him, he immediately asked: "Captain Qiao, haven't seen you for a long time. I saw you, how was your reconnaissance this time?"
Qiao Shuqiang looked around him. Except for the personal guard Xiong Sanwa, there was no one else. He nodded and said with worry: "Mr. Zhang, are we still going to Suxian?"
Zhang Xian nodded and told him firmly: "Yes, that is our destination!"
Captain Qiao couldn't help but frowned, thought for a moment, and said: "Commander Zhang, I'll be honest, now there are a large number of communist troops on the move near Suxian County, our search team I saw several places along the way, some going west, some going south, and some going east. I don¡¯t know what their purpose was. Moreover, Su County is now occupied by the Communist army. They are in Mongolia. On both sides of the road leading from the city to Suxian, large and deep positions were built that overlapped like fish scales, and the troops were strong. The search team I brought with me, numbering more than 300 people, wanted to rush over to cooperate with your Huihe River. They broke through, but they killed and injured half of the people, so they had to take a detour and pass through in disguise."
"So, the enemy in front is already waiting for us to fall into the trap!" Zhang Xian couldn't help but said leisurely.
Captain Qiao was startled for a moment, then realized what he was doing, nodded quickly, and affirmatively said: "Yes, our way has been blocked by the Communist Army at all levels. It is impossible to pass through the Mengsu Highway smoothly!"
Zhang Xian thought about it again and felt that this matter was of great importance. He immediately said to Captain Qiao: "Xiao Qiao, follow me across the Huihe River and go to Nanping to gather. Report this information to Commander Yang immediately!"
"Yes!" Captain Qiao agreed loudly.
There was only a river between the north bank of the Huihe River and Nanpingji. Zhang Xian couldn't wait for the engineers to build the bridge overnight, so he led Captain Qiao and Xiong Sanwa to wade across the river. Half an hour later, he saw Yang Taojun. long. Before they came here, Commander Huang Wei led the 12th Corps headquarters to Nanpingji. At this time, Commander Huang was in Yang Tao's headquarters, wondering what they were discussing.
At the beginning, Commander Huang Wei also praised Zhang Xian for his bravery and skill in fighting. The 11th Division became the hero of the 18th Army's ability to break through the Communist Army's Huihe defense line. However, at this time, Zhang Xian was not in the mood to feel the praise from his boss. For him, a kind of incomparable worry made him anxious.
Seeing that both officers were there, Zhang Xian immediately told his findings and those of Captain Qiao of the search team. As the two officers listened, their expressions became more and more solemn.
"Two sirs, the enemy gave up their complete defenses this time and took the initiative to retreat. I think this is already very disadvantageous for us. We may have walked into their encirclement!" At the end, Zhang Xian solemnly said Tell them truthfully.
Yang Tao and Huang Wei looked at each other. Huang Wei still didn't believe it and asked: "How can you be so sure? The reason why the enemy retreated this time may be because they were afraid of the combat power of our 18th Army!"
"Jun Zuo, I would like to ask you to cross the river and go to the north bank to see the fortifications they have built but are not using!" Zhang Xian begged. At this time, he knew that only facts could convince people.
Huang Wei thought for a moment and nodded.
So, accompanied by Zhang Xian, Huang Wei and Yang Tao crossed the Huihe River and carefully inspected the defensive positions abandoned by the Communist army on the north bank. The results were just as Zhang Xian said.I think now, we should follow Shangfeng's instructions and capture Suxian County as quickly as possible. As long as we can capture Suxian County, we can get in touch with Xuzhou and reach a common advance and retreat, and we will have the convenience of Jinpu Railway transportation , this is a good way to achieve multiple goals with one stone! "
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Tao turned around and objected: "No, this plan won't work!"
"Why?" Deputy Chief of Staff Wen was very puzzled.
Yang Tao pointed at the map and said: "It looks like it's only twenty kilometers from Nanpingji to Suxian, but don't forget, we came out of Mengcheng on the 19th and fought for three days before advancing twenty kilometers. Our search team News has come from over there that the enemy has set up a large and deep defense system in rows and rows along the Suzhou-Mongolia Highway. Each layer is like a wave. I think that to pass such a large-area defense system, we only need to I¡¯m afraid it will be difficult to survive even if I fight for another three days!¡±
Deputy Chief of Staff Wen was stunned for a moment, his face turned red. He pushed up the glasses on his nose and asked, "What do you mean by Commander Yiyang?"
Yang Tao looked at Huang Wei and asked leisurely: "Now, can we still complete the order to go up to the peak?"
Everyone was stunned, and all eyes turned to General Huang Wei, the commander-in-chief of the corps.
Huang Wei couldn't stand it anymore. He cleared his throat and said to everyone: "The mission of the Corps is to capture Suxian County and join up with Du Yuming in Xuzhou. Judging from the current situation, how can we complete this mission?"
Everyone was silent, actually thinking hard. Yang Tao said no more and turned his head to the map hanging on the wall.
"Old Wu, what can you do?" Huang Wei asked Deputy Commander Wu Zhou first. After all, he was also the commander of the 85th Army at this time.
Deputy Commander Wu Zhou stood up, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I just arrived at the front line and I don't know much about the situation here, so I don't dare to say nonsense!" This was actually a rejection of Huang Wei's question. As he spoke, he also walked to the map and pretended to read it.
Huang Wei nodded. Deputy Commander Wu Zhou was telling the truth. At this time, he was new here, and even if he was asked to come up with an idea, he should wait until he understood the situation, right?
There was a dead silence in the venue, and no one said a word. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
