    The cadre was stunned when he heard Yang Zhen's words, but he was still a little unconvinced and said: "Political Commissar, I heard that you are also a cadre with a college background and a top student at Peking University. You can go to the battlefield to kill the Japanese, why should we  No? You can be prepared to sacrifice at any time, why can¡¯t we?¡±

    In response to the cadre's dissatisfaction, Yang Zhen shook his head and said: "My situation was a special one, and I can't compare it with you. The situation at that time is also incomparable with now. Once we cross the river, I will take into account your situation.  You will be allowed to leave the army after proper training, but that is not possible now.¡±

    "There are loyal bones everywhere in Qingshan, so why bury them in a graveyard. Now we can't march with the corpse, so we have to go and bury him with a few people. We want to make a mark so that we can find it easily when we have the opportunity to build a martyrs cemetery in the future.  After the burial, send someone to take care of his wife."

    Having said this, Yang Zhen looked at the military cadres surrounding him and said, "Don't you want to avenge Comrade Ren Guang? Well, let's start with executing the order now. Don't forget, although you are military personnel  , but all soldiers. To be a good soldier, you must first learn to obey orders. It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge."

    Several people nearby heard Yang Zhen¡¯s order and did not dare to say anything. They dug a hole on the mountain ridge and buried the person in it.  The people here have just been buried, and Li Mingbo over there also found out what happened with the shot under the mountain.  A recruit from a search company of Yamashita's 52nd Division was a little nervous because he was on the battlefield for the first time. He kept his hand on the trigger and didn't turn off the safety of his gun.

    But he didn¡¯t expect that he was just looking at the mountains on both sides and didn¡¯t pay attention to his feet, so he was knocked down by a piece of wood.  When he fell, he involuntarily pulled the trigger of the official rifle in his hand, which had no safety and was full of bullets, and fired a shot into the east ridge.

    The result was that the shot had no target at all, but it hit Ren Guang's neck while he was standing.  This recruit, who had been captured for less than a month and had not yet fired five bullets in total, probably didn¡¯t know that it was his confused shot that caused China to lose a musician.

    After the gunfire, the officers of the 52nd Division leading the team hurriedly evacuated because their target had been exposed and they were afraid of being surrounded and annihilated here.  This new recruit fell behind the team and was easily caught by Lee Myung-bak.  If Yang Zhen hadn't stopped him, this unlucky recruit would have been killed by the excited military personnel.

    After confirming that those at the foot of the mountain had left, Yang Zhen judged from the distance from Xingtan and the surrounding situation that there should not be any other enemies behind this enemy force.  He made a quick decision and immediately took the military personnel with him at a rapid march to Xingtan to join the army commander.

    When Yang Zhen led the military headquarters to Xingtan, the tense nerves of the military commander who had already arrived relaxed a little.  Looking at the military personnel led by Yang Zhen, the military commander breathed a sigh of relief: "Political Commissar, you are finally here. If you still can't make it, I will send troops to find you. It's less than ten kilometers away.  It took you more than four hours to walk on the mountain road.¡±

    Yang Zhen smiled indifferently at the commander's greetings.  Although there were dangers along the way, it was nothing compared to the planes above and the cavalry chasing after him when he led his team to break through from Harbin.  The only difference is that I have more non-combatants with me now.

    The situation at that time was even worse than now.  This time there were many non-combatants, but at that time the troops were still in chaos.  There was no food or ammunition, and there were many wounded.  He didn't even know which direction he was going in, and the surrounding enemy situation was even more dark.

    "This time, although the military headquarters only has one guard company, there are also many non-combatants.  But it was only a few miles away from the main force on the mountain road.  If you make up your mind to mobilize troops to come back for reinforcements, reinforcements can arrive within an hour.  Moreover, most of the enemy troops are still far away, and at most they are only harassing by small groups of troops.  The situation at that time was almost completely different.

    However, the situation was urgent, and Yang Zhen did not want to talk too much to the commander about what happened during the march.  After only a brief greeting, Yang Zhen waved his hand and said to the commander: "Commander, how is the battle situation now? Has our army captured Xingtan? The situation is already very unfavorable to us. The seven divisions in the entire third theater have been moved from  They are coming at us from all sides.¡±

    "If we are unable to capture Xingtan, we will be surrounded by three war zones in a small area on the west bank of the Huihe River and east of Piling. In other words, we will be trapped in a dead end. We will be attacked from both sides, and our troops and firepower will be at a disadvantage. Once we are surrounded,  , it will be basically impossible for us to break through as an establishment."

    After Yang Zhen finished speaking, seeing a rare hint of urgency on Yang Zhen's face, the army commander said: "Political Commissar, we have now captured the entire Xingtan and suppressed the enemy defenders on several hills south of Xingtan.  , it can be saidThe passage to the east has been opened.  However, the enemy troops stationed south of Xingtan can block the passage with artillery fire.  "

    "Several hills south of Xingtan are steep, and our army lacks experience in mountainous attacks. We have suffered heavy casualties in several assaults. We are now in a stalemate with them. However, the enemy forces in Sanxi tried to reinforce Xingtan several times, but we were repulsed.  In addition, Yizong is attacking in the direction of Sanxi, but the progress is not ideal. "

    "This Forty Division is an adaptation of the former Lianghuai Tax Police Corps of the Ministry of Finance. It used to be all American-style equipment. After the war of resistance in the past few years, although the equipment and training have been severely depleted, it is not as good as the Fifty-second Division.  The Central Army is elite, but it is much better than the 144th Division and the New 7th Division.

    "The battalion has heavy machine guns and 60 mortars, and the regiment has 82 mortars. The light machine guns are mainly Czech-style light machine guns. Basically, each squad can have one, and the ammunition is relatively sufficient. In addition, the division has  There is an eight-gun mountain artillery battalion that is rare in other troops. Although the mountain artillery battalion was destroyed by us, it still has four Italian-made 47-gun cannons."

    "Even below, they are all Belgian-made rifles and German Mauser rifles imported from the factory, as well as some Chinese and formal rifles. They are even equipped with some imported American portable machine guns. Their equipment is much better than ours. Now  And occupy a favorable terrain.¡±

    "Although there is currently only one and a half battalions on the hilltop south of Xingtan. However, they have deployed two 82 mortars, three heavy machine guns, plus two 60mm mortars and a 47-level cannon.  . It occupies a favorable terrain from a high position and can effectively block the passage from Xingtan to the outside world with just its firepower."

    After Yang Zhen looked at the map, he raised his head and said to the commander: "At least we can't fight in the mountainous area for now. Even if we win, the price will be quite high. And now the other enemy forces around us are advancing very fast.  , There is not much time left for us. Every minute is precious to us now.¡±

    "Our current task is not to completely eliminate or defeat this 40th Division, but how to get rid of the current danger of being encircled. We can't let a battalion and a half of enemy troops get entangled here. As long as the passage is open, I don't think it's necessary.  Take the hills to the south."

    "Fire blockade, two mortars plus a combat artillery, how much fire blockade capability can we have? Light machine guns can't hit, and heavy machine guns have such a long range, even if they hit us, there is no threat. We forced our way through  There is still no problem with the enemy¡¯s so-called fire blockade.¡±

    "Instead of paying heavy casualties and forcibly attacking these hills, it is better to let the troops in front not attack and guard him, and cover the main force to quickly pass through Xingtan. It is night now, although their long-range artillery fire can hit Xingtan, but  The accuracy is much worse. Even if we force the passage, we will have to pay a certain price, but it will be much smaller than the price we pay by force."

    "If the commander thinks that these guns on the hilltop in the south pose too great a threat to our army, why not do this? The 90mm mortar I brought here has greater range and lethality than the nationally-made 82 it is equipped with.  Mortars. We concentrated our artillery when the military headquarters and follow-up troops passed by, and conducted an artillery battle with them. Even if we couldn't knock out these guns, we would at least make them wary and not dare to use all their strength.  To go."

    "At the same time, we ordered the military headquarters and directly affiliated teams to pass through Xingtan and cross the Huihe River as quickly as possible. We also urged Zhou Guisheng and Feng Dafei to speed up and quickly move towards Xingtan. At the same time, we telegraphed the first column not to continue towards Sanxi.  Intersperse. Concentrate all forces and attack the front line of Donglintan and Laokengkou."

    "When we moved closer from Piling to Xingtan, we encountered small groups of troops from the 52nd Division several times. It seems that the strength of the Laoshan Regiment on the front line of Bangshan is still too thin, and the number of enemy troops that can be contained is limited. I  Since there is little point in keeping the Third Regiment in place to block the attack, it would be better to let it retreat along the road from the corridor bridge to Sanxi and resist the attacks of the 52nd Division step by step. "

    "The 52nd Division is the Central Army. Although it is well-equipped, it is not good at night fighting, especially in mountainous night fighting. It is much worse than us. This means that they will not launch a large-scale attack tonight. We can use night fighting to offset the disadvantages of their equipment.  Advantage. Letting the third regiment fight hard on the front line of Bangshan will not do us any good except to contain one of our regiments and weaken our army. "

    Having said this, Yang Zhen paused and said: "Commander, now that Zhao Lingbo has rebelled, our army's original plan to penetrate directly into the Jingde Tianmu Mountains through Maolin has been completely exposed. The enemy's 62nd Division transferred from western Zhejiang,  We are rushing to Jingde on a starry night, and we will be there by tomorrow evening at the latest. Our army¡¯s route south to Jingde has actually been blocked.¡±

    "I see it this way. After crossing the Huihe River, did we turn around in another direction? We no longer marched according to the original plan, but??Turn around and head directly north, passing through Yejiakeng and directly entering the territory of Ningguo.  In order to eat up our southern Anhui troops, the Third War Zone almost came out in full force.  The main force of the 52nd Division stationed in this direction has been transferred eastward, and its rear defense is now extremely empty.  "

    "The 52nd Division's rear defense is empty. Now it is an extremely rare opportunity for us. If we can seize the opportunity, twist all the troops into a powerful fist, concentrate our firepower and troops, and march toward the northeast with all our strength.  The direction can be highlighted in the shortest possible time.¡±
