    The reason why Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun were so furious was not because of anything else, but because last night when the Second Brigade was marching towards Jiangjunshi, a squad leader of the original Tangyuan Independent Regiment who was newly incorporated into the Second Brigade actually disappeared with his gun.  Only at dawn the next day did Liu Changshun and Wang Xiaoming realize that there was one less man in their army. When Liu Changshun and Wang Xiaoming came to their senses, they found that this man had long since disappeared.  ¡¾.Com text¡¿

    When the Second Brigade was advancing towards General Shixian, someone disappeared with a gun, which made Yang Zhen extremely angry.  Besides defecting, what other reason could there be for missing with a gun?  Since the establishment of several newly formed independent regiments, there have indeed been many deserters.  These local recruits who formed the new independent regiment were different from the previous recruits who came from labor backgrounds and had nowhere to go.  Being extremely familiar with the local area, they can easily run home.

    Nowadays, when you are a soldier, you have to go to the battlefield. It is normal to be afraid of death and reluctant to leave home, wife and children.  But these runners basically left their weapons in the army and no one took them away.  And this person was the first to escape with a gun.  Although it is nothing new for a soldier to run away in war years, this person's escape when the Second Brigade was about to arrive at the scheduled battlefield, especially since it was basically certain that he was defecting, caused great personal harm.

    Although this defector has a low position, he is just the squad leader of a newly formed unit and does not understand the entire deployment. His defection will not reveal many secrets.  But he only needed to leak the marching route of the second brigade, and Gengenbo could easily judge his entire combat intention.

    The Japanese are not fools. When they suddenly find that there is a force with tens of thousands of troops and a large amount of artillery hidden around them, they will not be unable to judge the opponent's next tactical intention.  The Japanese certainly appear to be somewhat narrow-minded on strategic issues.  But tactically it is quite impressive.  Its response speed is also absolutely top-notch.

    "Once your strategic intentions are exposed, not only may the 24th Division slip away from your hands, but if you don't do it well, you will suffer a big loss in the follow-up operations."

    Looking at Yang Zhen¡¯s uncertain expression, Liu Changshun and Wang Xiaoming, who knew that they had caused a big disaster, did not dare to express their anger and stood aside honestly.  The two of them were not unaware of the dangers brought by this defector, and they had also tried their best to capture this guy.  Only when they discovered it, it was already past midnight, and it was already too late to arrest him again.

    ¡°Knowing that the commander¡¯s entire plan is likely to be scrapped due to the appearance of this defector.  Even when Wang Guangyu paid a high price for the bloody battles in the past few days, it was possible that all of them were in vain, the two of them were so ashamed that they could not hold their heads up.

    Especially Liu Changshun, when he led the troops to Qunce Mountain to receive new troops, Yang Zhen had repeatedly told him to firmly control the troops and never create an unstable situation.  But what he didn't expect was that something happened just as he was about to arrive at the battlefield.

    Full of remorse, Liu Changshun wished he could catch the guy who almost ruined the entire battle plan and cut him into pieces in order to get rid of the evil spirit in his heart.

    Although he wanted to kill these two careless guys, Yang Zhen also knew that the sooner he made a decision on this emergency, the better.  After a long silence, Yang Zhen raised his head and looked at the ashamed Liu Changshun, trying to slow down his tone and said: "Where is the main force of your second brigade now?"

    After hearing Yang Zhen's question, Liu Changshun quickly walked to the map, pointed at the map and said: "Report to the commander and chief of staff, all of our troops have arrived at the designated location and are on standby. According to the headquarters' plan, the main forces of the fourth and fifth regiments  , as well as two battalions of rocket artillery directly under our operations headquarters and one battalion of field artillery have arrived at the hiding place between Daheli River and Junde, west of the Jiahe railway line. "

    "One battalion of the Sixth Regiment and the Fifth Regiment, one battalion of the field artillery directly under the headquarters, and the artillery unit directly under the brigade have all arrived three miles west of Yongchang, the important town on the Jiahe Highway, and are on standby. Once an attack order is received from the headquarters, the Jiahe Highway can be cut off at any time  and Jiahe Railway.¡±

    After Liu Changshun finished his report, Yang Zhen looked at the locations of the Second Brigade units on the map and pondered for a long time before saying to Guo Bingxun: "Old Guo, I don't think we can wait any longer. Regardless of whether this defector went to the Japanese army or not,  We can't wait any longer. The Japanese are not fools. I think our plan must be carried out in advance if such a large force enters their flank and cannot be detected for a long time."

    Although Guo Bingxun seemed a little hesitant, he finally nodded and said: "This person disappeared when the Second Brigade was moving towards General Shixian. It is basically certain that he defected to the Japanese army. Otherwise, he would have run away long ago.  , why wait until the second brigade is approaching the preset battlefield and run away? "

    "Although this person's defection did not involve many secrets due to his position. But he exposed the march of the main force of the Second Brigade.The route exposed almost all of our tactical intentions.  If we still want to eat this 25th Division, then we can only act in advance.  Commander, I think this decision can be made.  "

    With the support of Guo Bingxun, Yang Zhen, who quickly determined to fight in a very short period of time, pointed to the map and said to Liu Changshun and Wang Xiaoming: "Don't delay here, return to the army immediately. After you go back, be sure to  Be ready for battle in the shortest possible time.¡±

    "The headquarters is determined to form the North Cluster with the main forces of the 2nd Brigade, 4th Regiment and 5th Regiment that have arrived east of Yongchang under the unified command of Brigade Commander Liu Changshun and Chief of Staff Ma Chunsheng, and attack eastward from the current location as a starting point to attack the main force of the Japanese army on the General Shi line.  Behind the Forty Regiment.¡±

    "The mission of the North Cluster is to seize Junde as quickly as possible and cut off the connection between the 40th Regiment and the Japanese field detachment. It will form a north-south pincer attack with the 1st Brigade against the 40th Regiment."

    "The Sixth Regiment, which has now reached the west of Yongchang, plus the First Section of the Fifth Regiment, and the cavalry battalion directly under the military region, commanded by Wang Xiaoming, the Acting Political Commissar of the Second Brigade, form the Southern Cluster, taking Yongchang as the starting point to sweep eastward with all our strength. In the shortest possible time,  Seize Xinhua, the key point of the Jiahe Railway Line, and cut off the Jiahe Railway Line.¡±

    Having said this, Yang Zhen looked at the time on his watch and said to Liu Changshun and Wang Xiaoming: "It is now nine o'clock in the evening. I can only give you six hours to complete the final preparations. Tomorrow at two o'clock in the morning, you  You must call me on time."

    "Remember that after the battle starts, ignore the entanglement of small groups of Japanese troops. Concentrate the main force and artillery fire, and attack the Japanese troops in depth. We must complete the division and encirclement of the Japanese troops in the shortest possible time."

    Liu Changshun didn¡¯t have any big objections to Yang Zhen¡¯s deployment.  But regarding his personnel arrangements, he said hesitantly: "Commander, there is basically no problem starting at 2 o'clock tomorrow morning, but there is one thing you need to consider. The Sixth Regiment and the First Division of the Fifth Regiment are now far away in Yongchang. Political Commissar Wang  If you rush over from General Shixian, you will have to take a long detour to avoid the Japanese positions.¡±

    "Even if he works hard, it will take at least around midnight to reach the front line in Yongchang. This leaves him less than an hour to prepare. Doesn't it seem too hasty? The troops on the front line in Yongchang are now commanded by Chief of Staff Ma. Do you think that's right?  Adjust the command layout. Chief of Staff Ma will take command of the southern front troops, and Political Commissar Wang and I will command the main force of the fourth and fifth regiments on the northern front?"

    In response to Liu Changshun's suggestion, Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun looked at each other, nodded and said, "Okay, just do as you wish. You and Wang Xiaoming will jointly command the northern front troops, and the southern front troops will be commanded by Ma Chunsheng. You will return immediately.  Troops, issue orders according to this deployment.¡±

    After that, Yang Zhen emphasized again: "I don't care what difficulties you have now. But at two o'clock in the evening, I want to hear you start the fight on time. As for how to fight, you are all brigade-level cadres, so you should have an idea in your mind.  Number. The chief of staff and I don¡¯t have to worry about the process, but we must see the desired results within the specified time.¡±

    Seeing Yang Zhen nodding in agreement with his opinion, Liu Changshun and Wang Xiaoming did not dare to delay. After hurriedly saluting a military salute, they quickly walked out of the headquarters and hurried back to their troops.  After the two left, Yang Zhen smiled bitterly, shook his head and said to Guo Bingxun: "I gave you all the advice and instructions, but I didn't expect that something happened to them."

    "Don't they know how much harm such an inconspicuous oversight in peacetime will cause in wartime? These independent regiments were formed too hastily and cannot be screened in detail, and their soldier structure is very complicated. Among them  In addition to the local people, there are also many captured Puppet Manchukuo military and police personnel. It¡¯s not that they don¡¯t know this.¡±

    "Why don't they be more careful? Their negligence has caused us to be more prepared for the offensive, but now we can only hastily launch it in advance. Do they know how much more their negligence will cost us?  An avoidable cost?¡±

    From the tone of Yang Zhen¡¯s words, Guo Bingxun could clearly tell that he was dissatisfied with Liu Changshun and Wang Xiaoming¡¯s mistake.  To be honest, Guo Bingxun was also very angry that the two of them made such a big mistake before the battle.  But when I calm down and think about it, I feel that it¡¯s not that big of a deal.

    When the war is about to begin, the defection of one's own troops will indeed have a certain impact on the combat plan.  But if it is a fatal impact, it is unlikely.  As long as you can quickly adjust your deployment according to changes in the situation, although this impact cannot be ignored, it will not be too great.

    Although Guo Bingxun didn't think this was a big deal, he saw another problem from this matter: "Commander, don't be too angry. The enemy situation in the Northeast is far more complicated than in the customs."The puppet spy forces are also far stronger than those within the customs.  Whether it is the commander-in-chief and political commissar, or the commander and political commissar of the First Army, I have heard that they have suffered greatly from the Japanese and puppet spies.  "

    "These independent regiment soldiers are different from our previous mainly rescued laborers. They are all recruited locally in the base area. The members themselves are complex. In addition, we lack effective screening methods and methods. This situation will not happen.  What a strange thing."

    "One of them is a brigade commander and the other is a brigade political commissar. They are responsible for a brigade, not a certain company or platoon. How can they cover everything for a brigade with tens of thousands of people? And I doubt that if the missing person  If this person really defected, then he could run for most of the night and not be discovered until dawn, which means that this matter is not an isolated matter. "

    "Although I don't advocate expanding this matter to an unlimited extent, I wonder if the commander has considered it? This person is a squad leader. Although he is only the leader of the soldiers, he is the squad leader in charge of a squad after all. He is missing  Isn¡¯t it a little strange that he wasn¡¯t discovered in the middle of the night?¡±

    "Even when marching at night, his battalion and company commander did not notice that there was no one missing. But it is impossible for the platoon leader who needs him to convey orders to the soldiers in his squad not to know that he has lost a squad leader? And which squad of soldiers?  "Is it possible that my squad leader has been missing for most of the night, but he didn't notice it at all?"

    "If I'm not wrong, this person's defection is definitely not an isolated incident. At least his platoon leader must conduct a strict review. We can't just unjustly accuse a good person, but we can't let a bad person go. If this platoon leader  There is also a problem with the length, which really explains the problem.¡±

    "You must know that the cadres we used to form those independent regiments were all drawn from the three old main regiments. If there are problems with this platoon leader, it means that there are also some problems in our old troops that should not be  problems arise."

    In response to Guo Bingxun's words, Yang Zhen nodded slightly and said, "I don't feel right either. A squad leader disappeared for most of the night, and the entire army didn't even notice it. Even during a night march, this is almost impossible.  But now that the troops are fighting, we can¡¯t strictly review the person involved. We can only wait until the battle is over.¡±

    "However, although this matter cannot be expanded now, Liu Changshun must be told that not only the platoon leader, but also the company commander of the company must be closely monitored. Especially in the period when the second brigade troops are fully deployed and before the battle begins.  Within a certain period of time, strict surveillance must be carried out, and orders must not be communicated beyond the battalion level before the full-scale battle begins.¡±

    "No relevant combat plans will be communicated to the front-line troops until the last five minutes to prevent similar incidents from happening again. If the squad leader defected during the march, the threat to us would not be too great. If the troops are fully deployed,  , if a similar situation occurs again, it will bring a fatal blow to our entire attack deployment."
