Chapter 271 Ouyang, Commander of the White Tiger Column
At 2 a.m., the position command post of the White Tiger Column in Fairy Lake.
A telegram from the 385th Brigade of the 129th Division completely broke the quiet night.
The content of the message: Called the White Tiger Column. Due to the collapse of Longshankou Valley Road, our 385th Brigade was unable to arrive at the ambush location as originally scheduled. Our department is currently trying to detour.
As the saying goes, blessings are unparalleled, but misfortunes never come in one single way!
As soon as the telegram from the 385th Brigade arrived, Ye Cunxin, deputy commander of the Communications Company, also came to the command post.
Ye Cunxin said anxiously: "Commander, it's not good. Captain Langya Gao has just intercepted a piece of intelligence. The Japanese Ishihara Brigade has sent Hiromoto Toyota to lead a gang of Japanese troops, which are marching urgently. The target is the 386th Brigade of Leigong Ridge."
Upon hearing this, Wang Yaqiao, Jiang Daya, Yang Zhihua, Li Dabanshi, Chen Feng, Ma Jiujin, Dai Tianli and others were all shocked!
Chief of Staff Wang Yaqiao frowned and said, "In this way, the battle situation will be more changeable and unpredictable. Whether it is our White Tiger Column or the 386th Brigade Commander Chen, they will be in trouble!"
Suddenly, the entire command post was in an uproar.
"What should I do?"
"Now, there are less than 2 hours before dawn. Even if our troops send troops to Leigong Ridge, we can't catch up!"
"That's right, the Japanese are much harder to deal with than we thought."
"If the 386th Brigade is asked to evacuate from Leigong Ridge urgently, I don't know if it is trustworthy, otherwise I will be surrounded and I will be extremely likely to be wiped out!"
"How did the 385th Brigade do it? Why haven't it been impossible to get there yet? Isn't this a delay?"
The development of the situation has exceeded everyone's expectations.
The battle situation at this moment is completely different from the previous plan. The 385th Brigade was unable to arrive at the original time, which made the entire battle situation extremely confusing.
"hateful!"
Jiang Daya, the commander of the Second Regiment, said in a deep voice: "Commander, Chief of Staff, please let me lead a team of people and come out immediately. If you are lucky, you should be able to arrive at Leigong Ridge before the 386th Brigade collapses!"
Everyone's words and words suddenly filled the entire command post with an anxiety and tension.
The atmosphere is extremely solemn.
"What's the noise! The day hasn't collapsed yet!"
Suddenly, Ouyang shouted loudly, stopping everyone's noise.
"hiss!"
For a moment, everyone was stunned and dared not say anything more.
Although Ouyang is never popular on weekdays, his prestige among the crowd is one of the best. Not to mention the others, the senior commanders and fighters of the White Tiger Column are basically recruited by Ouyang or dug from other teams.
The grace of knowing that the meeting is as deep as the sea!
As big as the sky!
Ouyang said with a serious expression: "Before we are at the end of our lives, why didn't the Japanese send a corps to attack Leigong Ridge?"
"Then, although the 385th Brigade did not arrive at the scheduled time, is it really going to collapse this day?"
"The situation of the war itself is changing rapidly. No one can predict everything to be perfect before the battle begins. Not to mention us, even the heads and ministers cannot do this."
"Now is not the time for us to complain or hold us accountable. At this moment, we should work together to overcome the difficulties!"
"If the Japanese dare to play tricks, then we will take it all!"
"I, Ouyang, although I may not be older than you, and I may not be as experienced as everyone else, but I dare say that the Japanese who died at my hands are definitely no less than everyone else."
"From the first day I joined the army, I have known a truth, that is, there is no formation that cannot be broken, no hurdle, and it cannot be overcome. Any conspiracy and intrigue has its own weakness!"
After a few words, it was powerful!
Even Ouyang himself is excited at this moment.
"Feeling!" "Feeling!" "Feeling!"
In terms of strategy and command, I may not be as good as Jiang Daya, Wang Yaqiao and others, but I was a university teacher in my previous life.
Are there any groups in this world that are more difficult to discipline than college students?
A rigorous work attitude is a necessary condition for managing college students.
Before you traveled through time, even a group of rebellious college students could handle it and obey you, but could you not be able to suppress you?
Suddenly, everyone in the command post became quiet and all were ashamed.
"Get the map!" Ouyang said in a deep voice.
“Uh~~~~!”
The guard Ma Jiujin was stunned for a moment, and immediately pulled out the topographic map of Taihang Mountain from the table and spread it on the table.
Ouyang pointed to the map and then asked Ye Cunxin again, "When is Ye Cunxin, Lao Gao and others present at Guangben United? Where is the location?"
"The current location is in the Zhoukou area of Hei Songlin. It was almost an hour ago, at around 2 a.m.." Ye Cunxin reported truthfully.
"Um!"
Ouyang nodded, then stopped talking, but turned his eyes to the map again, his brain flying.
In terms of expression, Ouyang tried hard to control himself and kept the corners of his mouth rising.
Now everyone can panic, but they can’t!
Because I am the highest military commander of the White Tiger Column, if I can't even calm myself down, how can I ask others to calm down?
Commanders must ensure that their brain is in a very clear state. Bad factors such as anger and anxiety will hinder their judgment.
At the same time, Ouyang also hopes that he can infect everyone with a relaxed state.
Soon, I thought about three choices.
The first choice is that our White Tiger Column is still holding on, and he firmly believes that Chen Geng's troops of the 386th Brigade can withstand the front and back attacks from the Matsumoto Brigade and the Japanese Ishihara Brigade. As long as you can hold on until the 385th Brigade arrives.
But in this way, both the 385th Brigade and the 386th Brigade will suffer heavy casualties and lose troops.
The second choice is that our troops took advantage of the night to launch a strong attack on the Ishihara Brigade, forcing Hiromoto Toyota United to urgently return to the Fairy Lake and force him to give up his plan to attack the 386th Brigade.
However, this choice is tantamount to more difficult, because from the perspective of time and terrain, Hiromoto Toyota is no longer able to return to the Ishihara brigade, and it is only possible to return to the Ishihara brigade unless the Ishihara brigade is about to be destroyed.
The third option is that the Zhouwei State Department of Hutou Mountain is 80 miles away from Leigong Ridge. If troops are sent to reinforce now, it is very likely to delay Guangben's corps. However, in this way, the position of Hutou Mountain will have empty forces.
In this way, the Ishihara Brigade is very likely to divide its troops and attack Hutou Mountain. As long as you take down Hutou Mountain, you may go around the rear of our army and encircle our army in the main position.
After thinking for a long time, Ouyang gritted his teeth and immediately made a decision.
A dead person is facing the sky, and at worst, he will still be a hero in 18 years!
"Bang!"
Immediately, Ouyang slapped the table and said solemnly: "Ye Cunxin, you can call the commander of the first regiment to the commander Zhou Weiguo, and send the order to lead the troops of a battalion immediately. It is necessary to rush to the Wudaoling area within 3 hours and stop the Guangben regiment for me."
"No!"
Chief of Staff Wang Yaqiao immediately retorted: "Commander, this is not OK!"
"It's only 3 hours. It's not dawn yet, and it's a mountain road of 80 miles. Even though Zhou Weiguo could arrive, they didn't have time to build fortifications. With his flesh and blood, how could he withstand the strong attack of a Japanese corps!"
Jiang Daya also said: "Yes, let alone a battalion, even our regiment, if we do not have the terrain advantage as a support, we will definitely not be able to withstand a Japanese army's regiment!"
"hehe!"
Ouyang laughed and said, "You underestimate Zhou Weiguo too much. He is not a person who only knows how to fight hard. He is a person who uses his brain to fight. I firmly believe that he can block Toyota Hiromoto!"
After giving orders to Zhou Weiguo, Ouyang immediately issued an order to everyone.
"I order each department to build rice. In one hour, we will attack Ishihara brigade in a forceful attack on the Ishihara brigade. We must make the Japanese devils hurt and let them see our power!"
Chapter completed!
