Huainan, Zhou Weiguo Headquarters
"Weiguo, the losses of the first and second regiments today were not small. It was better to be a ball. Today, the 9th division seemed to have slowed down their attacks. However, the 13th Regiment was increasing the intensity of their attacks. Today, after they launched their attack, they fought a few times and we lost a lot of people!”
He Yuchen stood beside Zhou Weiguo and looked at the map.
"That's normal! Now we have their honor in our hands. Especially the 13th Regiment, we got our flag from them, how could they not be anxious?”
Zhou Weiguo didn't find it strange. It was normal for the Japanese to launch a Jade Shattering Battle under such circumstances.
"Report! A telegram came from the servant room!"
At this moment, a confidential officer ran in and said loudly.
"Servant room? They sent a telegram? What telegram?"
Zhou Weiguo frowned. Although it was a telegram from the attendant office, it was actually the chairman's intention. Otherwise, the attendant room wouldn't dare to send out a report!
"The attendants said that they have received news that the Japanese army's 6th division has passed Hefei. They suddenly accelerated their march and are expected to reach Huainan in the afternoon the day after tomorrow!”
"The Japanese army's 6th division is accelerating their march? Will he arrive in Huainan the day after tomorrow? Traveler, after the day after tomorrow, I'm afraid our situation will be even worse!”
He Yuchen said worriedly. They were already facing two Japanese divisions. If another elite division came, it would be even harder to fight.
However, Zhou Weiguo was not anxious. Instead, he frowned and looked at the map.
"No, I can't! This is our chance!"
After a while, Zhou Weiguo suddenly said!
"Our chance? What opportunity?"
He Yuchen did not understand what Zhou Weiguo meant.
"I believe that the 13th division will definitely launch an even fiercer attack in the next two days. It is very likely that they will launch a night attack tonight, if not tonight, then tomorrow night.”
"Why?"
"Why? The reason was simple. The Japanese had launched several Jade Shattering Battles in a row during the day. What did this mean? It meant that they were very anxious, very anxious to take revenge through his own hands and take back Dizhou.
According to the rules of the Japanese army, this regiment flag was an important thing. If Dizhou Libing couldn't take back the regiment flag, he probably wouldn't even be able to return to the country and become a reserve.
Therefore, in this situation, the Japanese army's 6th division will arrive in Huainan the day after tomorrow. The one who is anxious is not us, but him.
He would definitely want to take back the flag before the 6th division arrives. This is where the problem lies. According to our battle situation in the past two days, it is simply impossible for the Japanese to break through our position, eat us, and take back the flag in two days. Since it was impossible, he could only use a special method. I want to sneak attack at night. This is not a bad idea.”
He Yuchen listened to Zhou Weiguo's analysis and felt that it made sense.
If he was Dizhou's army, then the current situation was that he was even more anxious than his own side. Because once the 6th division arrived, he would not only lose his position, he would also die.
"Then do you think the Japanese army will launch a sneak attack?”
He Yuchen asked Zhou Weiguo.
"Here-Zhuji Village! I saw the map just now. If the 13th Regiment were to launch a sneak attack, this is the only way he could go. If he went to Zhangci Village, which was between Cao 'an Town and Changfeng County, he would be very close to Changfeng County and Cao' an Town. He would be no more than four kilometers away from both sides. At this distance, it was very easy to be discovered. Therefore, they could only go to Zhuji Village and take a detour about eight kilometers away from Cao 'an Town. This way, as long as they could take down Cao An Town, the 13th and 9th divisions would be able to enter from here. And our line of defense was naturally broken!”
"Then what should we do now?"
He Yuchen was no longer worried after hearing Zhou Weiguo's words. The Japanese didn't know the exact number of their troops because they changed too quickly!
The Japanese might not know that there were three infantry regiments with tens of thousands of soldiers behind them!
"What should we do? Since the Japanese wanted to give us this opportunity, how could we give it up?”
A smile appeared on Zhou Weiguo's face. He had been looking for an opportunity these past two days to take down these two Japanese Regiments. Moreover, the casualties on his side couldn't be too high. But now, the Japanese had given him a chance!
"Yuchen, immediately send a message to Chang Debiao's second regiment. He told him to prepare to retreat. Once the Japanese attacked tonight, he would retreat immediately. He ordered Sun Liren, who was in Sanhe Town, to immediately lead his three regiments into Yanggong Town and set up a position to wait for the Japanese to arrive. He also ordered Zhang Zongling to lead his 4th Regiment into Zhangci Village and prepare to intercept the 9th Division troops that were heading towards Cao 'an Town!
He ordered Liao Yaoxiang, who was stationed in the city, to lead the five regiments to move towards Zhangci Village. At the same time, he sent a signal to Xin Pu, asking him to lead the heavy artillery regiment to retreat to Yan Village in the north of Cao An Town. Where to build the temporary artillery position. Tell them to be quick!"
It was obvious that Zhou Weiguo was going to play a big game of chess this time. He Yuchen could tell from Zhou Weiguo's arrangement that he was going to take down the 13th Regiment.
"Traveler, this way, we won't have much strength left. We'll only have the guard battalion of the brigade headquarters. Isn't this too dangerous?"
He Yuchen asked worriedly.
"Dangerous? How could war not be dangerous? And I don't plan to stay in the command center tonight. Immediately give the order to the guard battalion to move our brigade headquarters to Dongjiagang. Tell the guard battalion to build fortifications there and prepare to receive the second regiment!”
Zhou Weiguo was going all out this time. Setting up his brigade at the front line was a bold decision.
"Traveler, I can't guarantee your safety award!”
He Yuchen was shocked. It was not easy for him to hug a big tree. He did not want Zhou Weiguo to die here. Usually, he had no connections in the national army, nor did he have any backing. After coming out of the lecture hall and being a soldier for so many years, he had only been a battalion commander. Now, he was the Chief of Staff of the Independent Brigade. If he wanted to be promoted and get rich, he had to hold onto Zhou Weiguo tightly!
"Safe? If he wanted to win the war, where would he find safety? Alright, hurry up and pass on my orders. I want to play a big game tonight. Let's see who lives and who dies between me and Di Zhou Li Bing!”
