    Although at the Andong Military-Government Joint Meeting, Major General Jiang Xianliang, commander of the 6th Marine Brigade stationed in Andong, and Song Geping, mayor of Andong City Hall, had a huge quarrel. The two sides' ideas were completely opposite and they could not talk about it.  go.

    When Jiang Xianliang returned to the brigade headquarters, after losing his temper, most of his anger had subsided. There was no steel and concrete, but in the face of the Japanese defenses in the direction of Fengtian, they had to continue to build them. Although he disagreed with this in his heart,  "Do the little devils still have the strength to counterattack Anton? Please bless their bullshit emperor. If we don't attack Fengtian, our auspicious stars will be shining brightly. Building fortifications in Anton will be unnecessary!" This was Jiang Xianliang's true thought.

    However, this was an order from both the division commander and headquarters levels. Jiang Xianliang did not dare to slack off at all. Otherwise, he would not have argued with Song Geping so much that he wanted to use guns. As for his request to drop the 6th Brigade to the battlefield in the northern part of the Korean Peninsula, there was no trace of it.  It's nothing more than angry words. If I really send a telegram to Commander Han, I will receive a violent reprimand. "Chief of Staff, forget about sending a telegram to the Commander. We don't expect the Anton City Government!"  He said to Chief of Staff Huo Shoushan.

    Huo Shoushan smiled and replied: "Brigade commander, I have no intention of sending this telegram to the commander and sending it to the commander's door to find him for training. Let's not do it! I thought about it, brigade commander, and I will come forward to find Song Shi  Please communicate with us. Since the Anton City Government cannot meet our basic needs, it can do its best to provide some of them first, right?  solve!

    "Okay!" Jiang Xianliang slammed the table and praised, "This is a good idea. Chief of Staff, you should deal with that guy named Song. We have a problem. We glared at each other as soon as we met, and we couldn't even say more than three sentences. Keep it.  If the quarrel breaks out, I won't bother to see him. So, you go to the city hall immediately, I will take the guard company, and you will pick a few staff officers from the staff who are proficient in position defense warfare and go to the regiment's position with me!  "

    "Whether the kid dares to call is one thing. Whether we are prepared or not is another matter. Make arrangements and I will leave now. In addition, let the Communications Department arrange two radio stations to follow me.  If anything happens, call us on the radio!¡±

    Jiang Xianliang said angrily. Ten minutes later, a dozen trucks full of soldiers appeared.  Together with an armored command vehicle and several military jeeps, they quickly drove out of Andong City and headed towards Fenghuang Mountain in the northeast of Andong, which was the defense area of ??the 1st Regiment of the 6th Brigade and the destination of Jiang Xianliang's trip.

    More than three hours later, more than a dozen large trucks loaded with steel, cement and other construction materials were escorted by a platoon of troops from the Andong Security Command.  It also drove out of Andong City and headed towards Phoenix Mountain. This was the materials needed for the Sixth Brigade to build fortifications as much as Song Geping, the mayor of Andong, could raise in the shortest time and with the greatest efforts.

    Song Geping did this.  It was not because he was worried about any threats from Jiang Xianliang, but out of a sense of responsibility. In particular, the words of Colonel He Qifeng, the commander of the Anton Guard, greatly touched him.  His bad personal impression of Jiang Xianliang did not represent himself. He could watch the soldiers of the Sixth Brigade resist the Japanese attack in unreinforced fortifications, although he did not believe that the Japanese army was still capable of attacking on the Liaodong Peninsula.

    These dozen trucks of reinforced concrete and other building materials were forcibly purchased by Song Geping from some merchants in Andong City using the authority of the mayor. Of course, the current Andong City Government does not have operating funds yet.  What was left to the merchants was an IOU with the city government's seal and the mayor's signature. This somewhat made the merchants who were reluctant to sell supplies feel a little reassured.

    It is really not easy for the merchants in Anton. During the Japanese rule, military coupons and military tickets became a means for the Japanese to plunder the merchants in Anton. Now, the Japanese have been beaten away, and the military supplies in their hands are  The coupons and military coupons have become pieces of waste paper. From the bottom of my heart, I am not willing to accept the IOU issued by the mayor of the newly established municipal government. However, due to the power of power, and the new municipal government¡¯s  What he did, even though it only took a few days, was definitely different from what the Japanese did.

    In this way, Song Geping used the Andong City Government and his own reputation to send all the steel and cement that could be collected on the market to the frontline troops of the Sixth Brigade. As for the larger quantity, he could only wait for support from other regions.  , in what Song Geping said to his partner, the garrison commander He Qifeng, "With the credibility of the Andong City Government and myself, the building materials I raised were not for the sake of that Jiang Xianliang, but for the sake of the Sixth  For the sake of the brigade soldiers!"

    Jiang Xianliang, the commander of the 6th Brigade who was rushing to the First Regiment of Fenghuang Mountain, had no idea about this. Otherwise, even if he was not moved, he would still have some impressions of Mayor Song Geping and Song, who he disliked no matter how he looked at him.  Change!

    Phoenix Mountain is more than 20 kilometers north of Andong. The Pushi River flows around the front of the mountain. It is said to be a mountain, but in fact it is just a road.The tallest mountain is Fenghuang Mountain, which is only more than 200 meters above sea level. However, this is the only way to Andong, and it is also the only natural terrain that can be used north of Andong. Since it is Beijui  Major General Jiang Xianliang, commander of the 6th Brigade of the Japanese Army in the direction of Fengtian, placed the most powerful First Regiment here, and further north was the defense area of ??the Second Regiment and the Third Regiment.

    It is late spring, and there is no shortage of rain in the Liaodong Peninsula. The vegetation in the Phoenix Mountains is dense. There are clumps of shrubs or tall and dense woods everywhere. Even the wormwood is waist deep.  Standing high on Phoenix Mountain, you can have a clear view of the terrain in the direction of Fengtian. It is impossible for the large corps to move covertly. Therefore, the main position of the first regiment relies on the main peak of Phoenix Mountain and stretches to the left and right wings. Four battalions  Arranged in order.

    It took Jiang Xianliang less than an hour to arrive at the regiment's position. When he got off the bus, he didn't even drink any water. He took the main officers of the regiment to the main position and stood in a deep dug position.  In front of the trenches, which were very standard but made of earth, Jiang Xianliang frowned and said to Colonel Meng Jianzhu, the commander of the first regiment: "Commander Meng, the trenches of your regiment are very standard, but trenches like this can withstand  Have you considered using some of the little devil¡¯s shells?¡±

    There was strong dissatisfaction in Jiang Xianliang's tone. They were all people rolling over on the battlefield. As far as the trenches were concerned, to put it mildly, it was useless. The little devil couldn't use a few artillery shells.  , can flatten the trenches. Even if the soldiers are not hit by the shells, they will be buried by the soil. I am afraid that if a Japanese field artillery regiment fires a salvo, a group of trenches will be flattened.

    Colonel Meng Jianzhu, the commander of the first regiment, said aggrievedly: "Brigadier Commander, we are all people who fought on the battlefield. I don't know how this trench is like, but look at this damn place. There is not even a decent stone."  I can't find any. I can only use local materials to build fortifications and cut down more trees. There is nothing I can do. If there is enough steel and concrete, this place will be impregnable! "

    Jiang Xianliang sighed silently, "These are the things that are missing, but there is nothing I can do about it. I almost got into a fight with that Song Geping for the sake of steel and concrete!" He thought to himself.

    Seeing that Meng Jianzhu was still complaining, he said impatiently: "Okay, please stop complaining. It's not just your group. Our Sixth Brigade from top to bottom doesn't have that kind of thing. If you have any difficulties, just overcome them."  Dig some communication trenches, and once the first trenches are destroyed by the Japs' artillery fire, immediately move to the backup fortifications. In addition, dig more shelters and anti-gun holes, don't you use the inexhaustible big trees!"

    Jiang Xianliang felt a little better when he arrived at the regiment headquarters. The regiment headquarters dug absolutely qualified. They dug a big hole on the spot and covered it with several layers of trees, one layer of trees and one layer of soil. According to Jiang Xianliang's vision  Look, it's enough to withstand the continuous bombardment of Japanese heavy artillery.

    After coming out of the first regiment, Jiang Xianliang looked at the positions of the second regiment and the third regiment. Wherever he went, everything he saw was quite satisfactory. Finally, when he arrived at the brigade heavy artillery regiment deployed behind the first-line position, he saw  It was getting late, and the burning clouds reflected half of the sky red. The evening wind blew, and the vegetation on the wilderness undulated like waves. It was a peaceful late spring time everywhere.

    However, for some reason, Jiang Xianliang suddenly felt a throbbing feeling in his heart. It was an indescribable feeling. He always felt that the tranquility in front of him had an unreal and illusive feeling. He felt a little uneasy, so he  He refused the offer of the commander of the artillery regiment to stay and returned to the first regiment under the afterglow of the setting sun. That night, he stayed at the headquarters of the first regiment.

    Before going to bed, Jiang Xianliang called the regiment commander Meng Jianzhu and ordered him to set up a security post two kilometers ahead of the main position. In fact, he did not need to order. It was an old tradition of the independent division troops. The troops camped in camps or positions, and the security range was at least  It's two kilometers away.

    The setting sun faded away its last rays, and the dark night enveloped the Liaodong Peninsula. The entire Phoenix Mountain area was also in silence. At about two o'clock in the morning that night, on the open land in front of Phoenix Mountain,  Waist-deep in the wormwood and beside the bushes, dozens of black shadows appeared in groups of three, heading towards the main position of Phoenix Mountain.

    These shadows had obviously undergone rigorous training. Along the way, the sentry sent out by the first regiment had already maintained sufficient vigilance. However, these shadows were obviously more professional. They quietly touched behind the sentry and used the sharp dagger in an instant.  The young life of the sentry was taken away. The same scene was played out everywhere at the front of the Fenghuang Mountain Regiment. Neither Jiang Xianliang, commander of the 6th Brigade, nor Meng Jianzhu, commander of the 1st Regiment, expected that the sentry who went out on guard would be captured.  Quietly removed.

    An hour later, a dark figure carrying a radio on his back turned on the radio and sent out a signal. Dozens of minutes later, more dark figures appeared in the fields with dense vegetation, and they were carrying some mortars similar to ordinary mortars.  shape, mortars with great differences.
