    Sure enough, just as Zhang Xian had judged, at around five o'clock in the afternoon, Hu Congjun's top-secret telegram was photographed in the hands of Zhang Xian and Wang Yuanling, asking the reorganized 11th Brigade and the reorganized 118th Brigade to return secretly after dark.  Division, give Liu Xinghua's Xianghe column a carbine, aiming to stab the enemy in the throat.  Moreover, Hu Congjun clearly requested in this telegram that the actions of the two brigades be unified under the command of Zhang Xianlai.

    After Wang Yuanling received this telegram, he couldn't help but admire Zhang Xian very much. Although he had been Zhang Xian's battalion commander, at this time, he was not unhappy because Hu Congjun asked him to obey Zhang Xian's command. Instead, he thought that at this critical moment,  At that time, only Zhang Xian had this ability, and he was far behind him.  Therefore, before Zhang Xian came to find him, he took Long Tianya to the brigade headquarters of the 11th Brigade again and discussed with Zhang Xian the matter of the two brigades returning to the division side by side.  At this time, the 118th Brigade and the 11th Brigade were closely leaning against each other, and the two brigade headquarters were only a few miles apart.

    In the headquarters of the 11th Brigade, Zhang Xian spread out the map, pointed to the terrain above, and said to Wang Yuanling: "Brother Wang, when we return from Shangshui and rush to the Shangcai battlefield, we must cross the Hong River.  There are two highway bridges on the river. The one to the north is Hongqiao, and to the south is Xihongqiao Village, here!" He said, drawing a circle on that place with his finger, and then followed the flow of the Hong River.  , pointing to a landmark in the southeast direction of the lower reaches: "Downstream there is another bridge to the east of Shangcai, which is the Tower Bridge. On the other side of the river is the Baigui Temple!"

    Wang Yuanling nodded while looking at the map, already somewhat understanding, and asked: "Axian, do you suggest that we divide our troops into two brigades, one crossing the Honghe River from the east of Shangcai, and the other from Shangcai?  Crossing the Hong River to the north?"

    Zhang Xian nodded, but then said: "However, what is certain is that before Liu Xinghua attacks Shangcai, he will definitely arrange troops at the ends of the two bridges, either to set up ambushes or to block them, to prevent our two brigades from going smoothly.  Return reinforcements. In addition, once it is discovered that our two brigades have returned to Shangcai, Liu Xinghua will definitely know as soon as possible. When we break through his Honghe defense line, he can calmly arrange the evacuation of the troops surrounding Shangcai. Even if  It was us who broke through his Honghe defense line, and by the time we get to Shangcaicheng, they will have already run far away!"

    Wang Yuanling, Long Tianya, Wu Hua and others all nodded. Zhang Xian's worry was indeed reasonable. Hu Congjun ordered their two brigades to return at night just to annihilate the enemy Liu Xinghua's troops in one fell swoop. Liu Xinghua was a guerrilla fighter.  , has always liked to use guerrilla tactics, and it is difficult for people to capture the main position of the Xianghe column he leads.

    "Since we want to fight, we must suddenly appear on the battlefield before he notices that we have entered the battlefield, making him unprepared and caught off guard!" Zhang Xian explained to everyone, and at the same time said: "Only in this way can we defeat him in one fell swoop.  Its defeat will not be delayed, and then we can free up time to deal with the other two groups of communist troops!"

    "It is quite difficult for us to achieve this effect!" Wang Yuanling frowned and said unbearably.

    "It's a bit difficult!" Zhang Xian smiled, but then said: "But it doesn't mean it's impossible!"

    Everyone turned their attention to Zhang Xian. It was obvious that he had thought deeply about it. They calmed down and pricked up their ears, waiting for him to tell him the plan for this battle.

    Zhang Xian then pointed to the two bridges on the map and said: "These two bridges are actually a smoke screen. They will definitely confuse Liu Xinghua's judgment. If we leave these two easy-to-walk bridges alone, we will use other bridges instead."  Where to build a floating bridge?¡±

    Everyone was stunned. You looked at me and I looked at you. They were all a little surprised by Zhang Xian's idea. After thinking for a moment, Wang Yuanling frowned and couldn't help but asked: "Axian, what do you think?"  Although this is good, if we leave the road bridge alone, our mobile troops will lose their mobility. Although our artillery can pass through the pontoon bridge, what about our fast columns?"

    Zhang Xian nodded. This is indeed a problem. If the tanks and armored vehicles of the fast column pass over the pontoon, they may not be able to make it in time.  He smiled, and had already considered this issue, and said: "Don't worry about this, our main force does not take the road bridge, but our fast column still takes the road bridge!"

    Wang Yuanling became a little confused and looked at him blankly.

    Zhang Xian then explained: "We divided our troops into two groups by the Hong River. The main force bypassed the road bridge and crossed the Hong River from a place where the enemy did not expect, and went straight into Shangcaicheng. But we still have to leave a regiment to follow the rapid column.  , passed the road bridge from the front at dawn and made contact with the enemy. Haha, by the time Liu Xinghua discovered that our tanks were driving to the battlefield, we had already completed the encirclement of them!"His head was sweating profusely. Zhang Yi knew that he was also tired, so he nodded immediately. The two of them sat down under a big locust tree on the roadside. Tiedan took out a few pieces of dried sweet potatoes from his body and handed them to Zhang Yi.  , this is their dry food for the day.

    While chewing dried sweet potatoes, Zhang Yi comforted this little brother: "Tiedan, don't be discouraged. If we keep going like this, we will reach Shangcai. We will naturally find our troops there!"

    Tiedan raised his head and glanced at him and said, "Brother Yi, I have nothing to do, this is an easier way! I just feel a little heartbroken when I see you like this!"

    Hearing what he said, Zhang Yi felt warm in his heart and said quickly: "Good brother, it was me who dragged you down. Haha, if my injury was healed, it wouldn't take such a long time to walk on this small road!  "

    ¡°Brother Yi, a donkey cart is coming over there!¡± Tiedan interrupted Zhang Yi and stood up.

    Zhang Yi also stood up, and sure enough he saw a donkey cart coming from the west on this quiet road, pulling only firewood on the ground.  The driver was a man in his forties, wearing a dirty linen jacket, and his face was dark and stained with dust. At first glance, it was obvious that he was a driver who had been driving for many years.

    While waiting and watching, the donkey cart arrived in front of the two people, and Tiedan stepped forward to stop them.

    "Uncle, I want to ask you for directions!" Tiedan asked the driver loudly.

    The driver stopped the donkey cart and looked at the two people on the roadside. They didn't look like bad people. He nodded and asked, "Where are you going?"

    Zhang Yi also caught up and said, "We are going to Shangcai. I want to ask you if we can go from here?"

    The driver didn't think much about what Tiedan said just now, but when he heard Zhang Yi's words, he couldn't help but frowned, but he still nodded and told them: "Yes, follow this road to the east.  Walk thirty miles to Baichiji, and then go southeast from there, pass Linzhuang, and arrive at Shangcai County!"

    "Oh, thank you! Uncle!" Zhang Yi said politely.

    "It's nothing!" the driver said, and then asked: "Aren't you a young man from here?"

    "No!" Zhang Yi smiled and told him: "I am from a foreign country, and I came here to visit my relatives!"

    "Oh!" The driver nodded, but he was persuasive: "Young students, I advise you not to go to Shangcai!"

    "Why?"

    ¡°There¡¯s a war going on over there!¡± the driver told them.

    Zhang Yi and Tiedan looked at each other and immediately became excited, which meant that they arrived at the right time.

    But Tiedan asked: "Uncle, how do you know there is a war there?"

    The driver said: "I was sending a rich man who went to Caicheng to take a train to Xiping this afternoon. I just turned back. How could I not know?"

    ¡°So that¡¯s it!¡± Zhang Yi nodded.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
