    After asking what he wanted to know, Yang Zhen ordered people to place Guo Dachun. Yang Zhen turned around, summoned Guo Bingxun and Li Yanping to his side, pointed at the map and said: "No matter what this guy says is credible or not, but  What he said is the only valuable information we have now. I think our next deployment can be implemented based on what this guy said for the time being. "

    Li Yanping, who had just heard clearly the words of Yang Zhen, Li Mingrui and Guo Dachun, heard Yang Zhen's thoughts and said with some confusion: "Captain, do you believe this guy's words so much? What if this guy is Japanese?"  He is pretending to be a fake spy and deliberately deceives us. If we deploy according to what he said, we will probably suffer a big loss. Commander, this possibility is not impossible."

    "Knowing people but not their hearts, we'd better be wary of these puppet Manchukuo military and political personnel. If we can be 60% trustworthy in his words, it's already pretty good. Especially the Japanese troops he mentioned are still there.  Are the ferocious Japanese soldiers simply traders? Is this possible? If I tell him, I¡¯m afraid he himself won¡¯t believe it.¡±

    Regarding Li Yanping's concerns, Yang Zhen smiled and said: "Of course, I don't absolutely believe what he said. As for the information he said, we cannot fully believe it or not believe it before we verify it."

    "Now that the mountains are covered with snow up to their waist, neither we nor the Japanese and puppet troops will move too fast. This time the little devils have changed their past style and used the Japanese army as the main force. And without being able to give full play to their mechanized advantages, for this  It will be even more difficult for the troops of the Fourth Division who have just been transferred from Japan and have not trained in Northeast China for a long time."

    "So I suggest that based on Guo Dachun's confession, we use this time difference to send three reconnaissance troops to conduct close reconnaissance along the Japs marching route he confessed to determine the authenticity of this intelligence."

    "Political Commissar and Chief of Staff, you see, the Japanese army is divided into three groups to suppress the mountainous areas in northern Dunhua. Although the strength of almost each group is equal to ours at last, the distance between the three groups is very large. Especially they do not have the strength in the mountainous areas in northern Dunhua.  The map is very unfamiliar to this place. As for us, Huang Dali and Dong Ping have been here for a while, we have a relatively clear understanding of the terrain here. This is the most advantageous thing for us."

    "In addition, we are in the dark and they are in the light. We are very clear about their advancing route, but they still have no idea where we are hiding. Regardless of the weather or the enemy's situation, in fact, now  This is not the best time for the Japanese to enter the mountains. We don¡¯t understand why they acted out of character. But we don¡¯t need to understand now. The enemy¡¯s situation is already translucent. The rest depends on what we do.¡±

    "As long as we defeat one or two lines of Japanese troops, judging from the Japanese army's consistent style of rescuing people in the face of death, we can effectively mobilize the troops deployed around them and tear the blockade they deployed around Zhang Guangcai Ridge to pieces.  By then, whether we are going east, west, or even south, there will be no hindrance."

    "But the political commissar, no matter whether what he said about the deployment of the Japanese and puppet troops is true or false, one thing is definitely true. That is the style of the troops of the Fourth Division. He is definitely not wrong. Although the Fourth Division of the Japanese Army  It was one of the first established A-type divisions formed by the Japanese army, but because its troops were recruited in Osaka, they were mainly small traders. According to its folk customs, it is not surprising that this fourth division developed this habit."

    "Especially the Eighth Regiment. During the Southwest War during the Meiji Restoration, although it was personally commended by the Emperor of Japan due to heavy combat casualties, it was also the only unit among the Japanese divisions to receive such an honor.  During the Russo-Japanese War, it was called the Eighth Regiment that was not afraid of defeat due to repeated defeats."

    "The combat tenacity of this old division of the Japanese army, especially its determination to fight to the death, is not comparable to other divisions of the Japanese army, even its newly formed ad hoc divisions composed of retired veterans and newly formed divisions.  compared to."

    "The long-term business habits have made the style of this division less brave and tenacious and more tactful than other Japanese divisions. If we are desperate, we may bite back. But as long as Danfen has a way out,  They will never resist to the death. I once heard someone who is familiar with the Japanese army say that there are two divisions in the Japanese army that cannot be fought. One is the Guards Division known as the Emperor's personal soldiers, and the other is this  The Fourth Division was organized based in Osaka."

    "However, having said that, we must not underestimate the Japanese Eighth Regiment. After all, it is one of the oldest divisions of the Japanese army, and its equipment and tactical qualities are no different from other veteran regular divisions of the Japanese army.  This is also our first contact, and we still need to verify whether its combat effectiveness is as legendary."

    "Of course we can strategically despise the enemy.??But tactically we must pay attention to the enemy.  We must remember one thing, the Japanese army has no weak brigade, this is it.  Legends are legends, we can listen to them, but we can never believe them all.  If we could even believe the legend, we would die without knowing how we died.  "

    After that, Yang Zhen raised his head and said to Li Mingrui: "Immediately leave one team behind, divide all the reconnaissance teams into three parts, and find out for me the specific marching route and number of these Japanese troops. And this time  Huang Dali won¡¯t go with you on the mission. He has another mission.¡±

    Huang Dali, who was standing next to Li Mingrui, was slightly startled when he heard that this mission was actually left behind.  He will never forget what Yang Zhen said to the three of them when they were about to set off from Lao Heidingzi's secret camp: "You must be more careful during this mission. Your safety determines the safety of the secret camp."  . Not only that, you will also be the eyes and sharp daggers of the army in the future, so the three of you must bring the army back to me intact."

    Huang Dali has never forgotten Yang Zhen¡¯s words.  He knew how much Yang Zhen valued these small teams, which could be said to be still in their infancy.  Now that the whole army is dispatched, it is obvious that a big battle is going to take place. Why are you being called out at this juncture?  "Did I make any mistakes? No?"

    Looking at Huang Dali, who was confused because he was transferred, he knew that he might not understand his order.  Yang Zhen patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't think nonsense. I transferred you out because I have another task for you."

    "Our entire army is attacking this time, and the rear is empty. Only a platoon led by Lao Peng is holding on to the secret camp. That is our foundation. I am still a little worried about the lack of troops. Lao Peng is not a military cadre, so he may be lacking in experience.  That¡¯s why I transferred you back.¡±

    "You are a veteran. You know exactly what to do, so I won't say anything more. I only ask you one thing, that is, you must assist Director Peng and protect the secret camp. But once the Japanese and puppet troops invade in a large scale, if it is true,  If there is nothing you can do, you must protect Lao Peng for me. I don¡¯t need the supplies, but if something happens to Lao Peng, I want your head."

    "Captain, I have no objection to you transferring me back to the secret camp. I may not be able to wait until this battle is over before leaving. You also know that we have been marching in the deep mountains and forests all day just to wait for this day. But now you will  If I transfer it back, is there something wrong?"

    Although Huang Dali didn't finish his words, Yang Zhen also knew what he wanted to say.  Yang Zhen looked at Huang Dali, who was a little aggrieved, and said with a faint smile: "Are you trying to say that I'm a little unkind? You've been cooking and cooking, you've made the table, and you've even sat down, but you  Is it too inhumane to drive him away? If you really think so, say it. I can replace him and let Dong Ping go."

    "No, Captain, I really don't think so. I really just want to finish this battle before leaving. If you let me leave now, I will leave immediately." Hearing Yang Zhen's harsh tone, Huang Dali  He waved his hands quickly.

    Looking at Huang Dali, who was a little flustered and eager to explain, Yang Zhen said earnestly: "Dali, you are a veteran who came from Hubei, Henan and Anhui and participated in the Long March. I don't need to say more about the importance of the base area. Our entire army  When dispatched, only one platoon is left in the secret camp. Once the secret camp is really lost, the army will be like a rootless duckweed."

    "You have been fighting in these deep mountains and forests for a month, but you can guarantee that all the spies sent by the Japanese and puppet troops to the secret camp will be wiped out by you? This is not the Japanese army around here. Once the secret camp is exposed, the Japanese  The puppet army is launching a massive attack, and you are willing to let the brothers from that platoon die in vain?"

    "Why I chose you to go back instead of Mingrui is because you are a veteran and have participated in the Long March. You have experienced various situations and your experience is among the best here. You know what to give up when necessary? If you don't go back, will you let me go?"  I'm going back?"

    Yang Zhen's beating made Huang Dali calm down and he did not dare to argue anymore: "Captain, I understand what you mean. I will set off right away and return to Lao Heidingzi's secret camp. Please rest assured, it's us.  Everyone has sacrificed, and Director Peng¡¯s safety must be protected.¡±

    Regarding Huang Dali¡¯s guarantee, Yang Zhen seemed to be a little disbelieving and said: "Are you really willing and not forced?"

    Hearing Yang Zhen¡¯s somewhat doubtful tone, Huang Dali quickly stood up and said: ¡°I will never force you. I am a veteran, and I still understand the importance of obeying orders.¡±

    After sending Huang Dali away, the commander-in-chief, who stood watching Yang Zhen beat Huang Dali without expressing any opinions, smiled slightly and said: "Captain Yang, he uses both hard and soft tactics to make people convinced, but also pays attention to the method. I really can't see it.  Commander Yang is young, but he is so experienced in leading troops. The younger generation is to be feared, the younger generation is to be feared."

    Regarding the commander-in-chief¡¯s emotion, Yang Zhen smiled and did not answer.  Repair this Huang Dali and those he brought in later generations are all arrogant and have eyes on the top of their heads.Compared with soldiers, it is just a piece of cake.  If the commander-in-chief was allowed to see the bird soldiers that Yang Zhen led later, I am afraid the commander-in-chief would not sigh like this.

    After first seeing off Huang Dali, who returned to the secret camp, and then seeing off Li Mingrui, who had left the team to reconnoiter the enemy's situation, Yang Zhen began to make final preparations for the battle.  The ammunition and cadres have been adjusted. Although there is not much to prepare, the troops have been trekking in waist-deep snow for days, which consumes a lot of physical strength, so a proper short rest is still necessary.

    Li Mingrui acted very quickly and sent the information back one after another on the third day.  After carefully reading the information sent back by Li Mingrui, Yang Zhen handed the telegram to Li Yanping and Guo Bingxun and said: "It seems that Guo Dachun's confession is still true. The Japanese army was indeed divided into three groups. The southeastern one started from Xiaoshanzuizi.  The military strength is the strongest."

    Li Yanping put down the telegram in his hand, looked at Yang Zhen and said: "Captain, here are three tables of guests. Compared with us, the strength of each group's troops is at least not at an absolute disadvantage. But we only have these people, the snow is so thick, and they are extremely maneuverable.  Difficulty, how are you going to fight?"

    Yang Zhen pondered for a moment and said to Li Yanping and Guo Bingxun: "Political Commissar, you see. The Japanese army formed three routes to clear the northern part of Dunhua: the west, south and southeast routes. Among the three routes, the southeast route has the strongest troops, while the south route  The Japanese army is the weakest, which means that if we attack the other two Japanese armies, the Japanese army on this route will have the least pressure for reinforcements."

    ¡°I don¡¯t know the real reason why the Japanese troops moved the weakest group to the middle, but I do know that this group of Japanese troops will put the least pressure on us no matter which one of the other two Japanese groups coordinates.¡±

    "Choose one of the three, and I won't choose him. Because it seems that this one is the weakest among the three Japanese armies, but it is also the closest to the strongest southeast one, and the terrain is also the most convenient. These two routes  Although there are large swamps between the Japanese armies, in the current severe cold of minus 40 degrees Celsius, even the large lakes are frozen solid. Therefore, these swamps cannot become a natural barrier between the two Japanese armies.  "

    "Once the Japanese troops on the south route are lost, the Japanese troops on the southeast route can reinforce them as quickly as possible. Therefore, I will not choose the Japanese troops on this route. The combined strength of the Japanese troops and puppet troops on the southeast route greatly exceeds ours. We do not have this yet.  Have a good appetite to devour them. So based on the current situation, if ordinary people want to fight, they can only choose to fight the Japanese troops on the west route."

    "The Japanese army on this route is relatively far away from the other two routes, and the mountains in the middle are dense and dense, which is conducive to our army's maneuverability in setting up ambush. Moreover, although the Japanese army on this route is roughly the same strength as our army, we can consume their strength by setting up ambushes one after another.  . Finally, in one go, kill him. So most commanders with a little bit of adventurous spirit will do this."

    "And judging from the current situation we are facing, as long as we capture one of them, our entire game will be alive. Look at these three Japanese routes, which one should we choose to attack?"

    Regarding Yang Zhen¡¯s analysis, several people looked at me and I looked at you. They felt that these three Japanese armies were all hard fruits, but they couldn¡¯t chew any of them.  Especially Guo Bingxun, who had fought in the Battle of Taierzhuang and knew very well the strength of the Japanese army.

    He knew that even a well-equipped Central Army division might not be able to eat up a Japanese brigade.  Among the three Japanese routes, the southern route, which has the smallest strength, has a total strength of Japanese and puppet troops no less than our own.  Guo Bingxun, who has dealt with the puppet troops here more than once, knows that when necessary, the combat effectiveness of these puppet Manchu troops is still very strong.

    The real combat effectiveness of the two Japanese squadrons plus the two companies of the puppet Manchukuo army is at least equivalent to three Japanese squadrons.  The total number of his own troops is only a thousand men. Even if the training effect of these three months is great, it is not as strong as a Japanese brigade.

    You know, what Yang Zhen said in his tone was not a guerrilla war, but a war of annihilation.  The strength of the enemy troops on the west route is still higher than that on the south route. It is really difficult to eat them in one go.  Once there is a stalemate, if the puppet army quickly reinforces that day, he will suffer the consequences.  You must know that the Japanese army on the west road seems to be isolated, but there are a large number of Japanese and puppet troops outside the mountains behind them, and they can enter the mountains for reinforcements at any time.

    Looking at Yang Zhen who was looking down at the map, Guo Bingxun and Li Yanping looked at each other, hesitated for a moment and then opened their mouths: "Captain, I don't think we have the strength to swallow any of the three Japanese armies. I don't think we can swallow them."  We might as well take advantage of the Japanese army's large-scale invasion into the mountains, march at night, look for weak points in the blockade of the Japanese and puppet troops, and rush out. We only have this strength at hand now. If the consumption is too large, what will we do in the future? What will happen to this battle?  beat?"
