“What preparation do we need to do?”

Hou Wanshan asked again and said.

Yang Yun said with a solemn expression: "First, we must first be wary of the Japanese 9th Division taking a train north along Jinpu Road."

"But I don't know how we should be prepared?"

"Blast all the bridges and tunnels in Su County! Completely destroy Jinpu Road!"

Hou Wanshan frowned and pondered, and did not express his opinion immediately.

He didn't speak, but Li Wanzhen, the leader of the 219th Regiment, couldn't help but speak, "It's not good to completely destroy Jinpu Road, right? You know, it's easy to destroy Jinpu Road, but it will be difficult to repair it again at that time!"

"Don't destroy it, will you keep it for use for Japan?"

"Brother Yang, what you mean... Do you think we will fail in this battle?"

"We may not necessarily fail in this battle in Suxian, but the overall situation of the fifth war zone..."

Yang Yun was silent and did not continue talking.

"But we just won a big victory in Taierzhuang!"

"Is it really a big victory?"

Yang Yun did not answer the question, but Hou Wanshan stood there on the spot when he was asked.

Yes, as Yang Yun asked, the Battle of Taierzhuang may be considered a great victory for the entire history of the War of Resistance, but this battle alone is not considered a victory at all.

You should know that in this battle, the Chinese troops participated in the war were nearly 300,000, while the Japanese were only 50,000.

In addition, although nearly 20,000 Japanese officers and soldiers were annihilated, China's casualties exceeded 50,000, which was a victory made by people.

"You don't need to do this, because the final victory will definitely belong to us!"

Yang Yun clenched his iron fist, and his firm eyes seemed to have some magic power. When they swept across everyone, they actually made their blood boil.

"Li Wanzhen!"

"exist!"

Hearing the orders from the occupants, Li Wanzhen was immediately cheered up.

"According to the order of Commander Yang, your 219th Regiment is responsible for blowing up all the bridges and tunnels in Suxian!"

"yes!"

Li Wanzhen once again yelled at the order.

"In addition, a road bridge was also blown up!"

Li Wanzhen did not answer Yang Yun's words immediately, but looked sideways at Hou Wanshan, a hiker.

"Don't you understand Captain Yang's orders? Here, he is the supreme commander!"

"yes!"

Yang Yun didn't care about Li Wanzhen's attitude, because all this was long as he expected.

"Now I'll analyze it for you in detail. I've carefully studied the topographic map of Su County." After saying this, Yang Yun pointed to a point on the military map and continued: "According to common sense, the Japanese army has already taken a car and headed north along the highway. When all the bridges are blown up, the Japanese want to continue heading north, and then Songjialing will become their must-pass place."

"Brother Yang, what do you mean, we will use Songjialing as the decisive place for this battle?"

"Yeah, yes!"

Yang Yun nodded and continued, "I wonder if you have studied the terrain of Songjialing?"

Hou Wanshan frowned and said, "Brother Yang, is the terrain of Songjialing not a dangerous place?"

"Well, yes, it is precisely because the terrain of Songjialing is not too dangerous that we can regard this place as the main battlefield!"

The more everyone listened, the more confused they became. Didn’t they say they wanted to use favorable terrain to block the Japanese? The terrain of Songjialing is not dangerous, so how can they block the Japanese army?

Everyone didn't understand, but they didn't ask immediately. Sure enough, after a pause, Yang Yun continued to say: "The Japanese 9th Division had suffered a great loss in Linhuai Pass. Although the military situation was urgent this time, they would definitely not be careless. Therefore, it was precisely because the terrain of Songjialing was not dangerous that the Japanese chose to march from here.

Otherwise, no matter how dangerous the terrain is, what's the point of the Japanese not marching from here?"

Everyone nodded, Yang Yun glanced around and pointed to the map and said, "Please look, this is Meixi River, which runs from west to east before Songjialing.

Even though it is the dry season, we can still make a fuss about Meixi River.

The north bank of Meixi River is the winding Songjialing. Although the terrain is not very high, it is better because of the lush trees and weeds, so it is best to use them as cover.

The southern bank of Meixi River is flat, and this section of the river has a wide river beach. If all the bridges near Songjialing are blown up, the Japanese will definitely choose to cross the river from here to save time!

The flat terrain is just right for artillery attacks, and it will also become the burial place for the 9th Division of the Japanese Army!”

At the end, Yang Yun clenched his right fist hard again.

"Brother Yang, your plan is very good, but the problem is that our 110th Brigade only has one artillery battalion. It is said that it is an artillery battalion, but in fact it only has one infantry artillery and several grenade launchers. With such artillery firepower, it seems that it cannot suppress the Japanese 9th Division; and once they rush across the Meixi River, we cannot suppress them at all."

Hou Wanshan frowned and expressed his inner worries.

This was not only his concern, but also the most worrying thing for the officers of the 110th Brigade.

Many times, the reason why China cannot defeat the Japanese army is because its firepower is far inferior to that of the Japanese.

Before each war begins, the Japanese will carry out a carpet bombing first. After the bombing is completed, the Chinese side has already suffered heavy casualties, and those who survive by chance have lost their will to fight. How can they fight against the Japanese?

It is normal to lose the battle.

"Let's leave the task of shelling the Japanese to our new regiment."

"Leave it to you a new group?"

Hou Wanshan looked at Yang Yun with a look of surprise, as if he was wondering if he had heard it wrong; one of their brigades was only equipped with an infantry cannon, and the new 1st regiment was just a regiment. No matter how powerful it was, it would be too many to be equipped with two or three infantry cannons.

With such firepower, it still cannot suppress the Japanese decently, not to mention that the Japanese also have artillery troops, and this time they came a division of the Japanese army. In other words, they will face at least one Japanese artillery corps. What will they use to compete with the Japanese?

"That's right!"

Yang Yun nodded with certainty and showed a confident smile and said, "Although our new regiment lacks soldiers and generals, it is not lacking firepower.

We brought dozens of infantry artillery and mortars of various calibers this time, and two heavy field howitzers in the mouth with 150mm."

shock!

All the officers of the 110th Brigade present were stunned, with their mouths wide open, their eyes wide open, and their faces looked at Yang Yun with disbelief.

Bragging, if it weren't for the war, if it were another scene, everyone would definitely think that Yang Yun was bragging.

But after thinking about it, they felt relieved again. The new regiment actually had such powerful firepower. No wonder it could wipe out the 27th Japanese Brigade in Yongcheng.

It seems that it is not just a strategy, but also has a lot to do with one's own strength.
