Li Guotao frowned and said: "The troops have just gone through a day's rapid march, if we rush overnight, even if we can meet the main force, we will have become a tired division by then, and our combat effectiveness will be lost, and we may become a burden to the main force." ”Ma Zhenguo thought about it, sighed helplessly and said: "Then with the meaning of the regiment commander, what should we do next" Li Guotao frowned and muttered for a while, and then said: "Temporarily stop and rest for the night, let the soldiers recuperate first, and then make plans tomorrow" Speaking of this, Li Guotao sighed a little helplessly, and then said: "It would be good if we could get in touch with the main force, and if we could know the next deployment of the main force, we would also cooperate accordingly." ”Ma Zhenguo also had a sad face, shook his head and said: "It's a pity that the traffic is not smooth now, and I can't get in touch with the main force."
It always feels like we're like a motherless child now, and we don't even know where to go next. ”Li Guotao smiled and shook his head and said: "You don't need to be so pessimistic, difficulties are temporary, as long as this period is passed, everything will be fine." ”"Hmm" Ma Zhenguo nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then I will immediately arrange for the troops to find a camp nearby, and rest for a night." ”Li Guotao nodded and said, "Well, then this matter will be handed over to you."
Don't worry, the little devils are not iron-clad, after chasing us for a day, I don't believe that these little devils are not tired, and they still have the spirit to rush overnight, at least for the time being, we still have the main force to be safe. ”"Well, then I'll arrange it."
Ma Zhenguo nodded, and after speaking, he turned around and went to arrange.After a day's rapid march, the Independent Regiment had entered the northern part of Boye County, and then the Independent Regiment found a nearby village and stopped to rest for a while.That night, Li Guotao was sleeping Zhengxiang when he was suddenly awakened by a rapid knock on the door.Li Guotao woke up Kou Erbao to open the door, and he reluctantly got up from the warm bed, although he didn't know who it was, but he came to him in the middle of the night, there must be something important.Li Guotao didn't wait to get dressed, Ma Zhenguo rushed in with an excited face, and said with a smile: "Regiment Commander, the good news is that the messenger sent by Commander Meng found us just now and brought the latest instructions from the commander. ”"What are you talking about, Commander Meng sent someone to contact us," Li Guotao asked with a surprised expression."
Yes.In the morning, Commander Meng sent a correspondent to contact us.This correspondent chased us for a day and a half nights, and it can be said that after a lot of hardships, he finally found us with the help of local comrades. ”Ma Zhenguo said excitedly."
What about others," Li Guotao asked with an eager expression."
The comrade is also tired, and I have arranged for him to rest.However, he had already told me all of Commander Meng's instructions. ”Ma Zhenguo said with a smile."
Then what are you selling, don't hurry up."
Li Guotao hurriedly urged.Ma Zhenguo said with a smile: "Commander Meng ordered us to go north. ”"Go north" Li Guotao frowned and thought about it, and said with a slight surprise: "In this way, the main force is planning to do something against the Okazaki United" "The regiment commander is really smart." ”Ma Zhenguo nodded with a smile and said: "Since the Third Army Division was hit hard by the Okazaki Wing last time, I have been fighting guerrillas with little devils in Gaoyang and Renqiu.This Okazaki Wing was bent on completely annihilating the Third Army Division, but it never succeeded, and during this time it was dragged by the friendly forces of the Third Army Division in the area of Gaoyang and Renqiu.This time, the headquarters of our military region studied and decided to concentrate the main forces on the Okazaki Wing.In addition to the Third Army Division, there were also two regiments drawn from the Fourth Army Division, the First Independent Brigade of the Western Hebei Military Region, and the Second Army Division.The total strength of the military region exceeded 13,000 troops, and in short, this time the military region was determined to defeat and even completely annihilate the Okazaki Wing in one fell swoop. ”Li Guotao frowned and thought for a while, nodded and said: "Now the main force of the devils is basically concentrated in the area of Dingzhou and Anguo, if we suddenly go north at this time and besiege the Gangqi United, as long as the battle can be quickly resolved, it is impossible for the main force of the little devils to rush to the rescue in time."
Now is indeed a good opportunity to encircle and annihilate the Gangzaki Wing, so what is the specific task of our independent regiment. ”At this time, Ma Zhenguo couldn't help but sigh, and said with some disappointment: "It's very unfortunate that our independent regiment is too far away, so it was not assigned the main attack task.Commander Meng ordered our troops to immediately go north and cut off the road from Baoding to Gaoyang, on the one hand, to prevent reinforcements from Baoding from supporting the Okazaki Wing, and on the other hand, to prevent the Okazaki Wing from escaping in the direction of Baoding. ”"When will the battle start?"
Li Guotao then asked."
It is expected that after dark tomorrow night, Commander Meng ordered our troops to rush to the designated position before dark tomorrow."
Ma Zhenguo said with a serious face."
Tomorrow before dark."
Li Guotao thought about it in his heart and said: "Then we still have enough time, we will set off early tomorrow morning, and it should not be a problem to rush to Baogao Highway before dark." ”"Well, I also thought about it just now, if I set off early tomorrow morning and march all the way, as long as there is no accident, I can rush to the designated position at three or four o'clock in the afternoon."
Ma Zhenguo nodded and said.Li Guotao sighed slightly and said: "It's another long-distance march, which is a lot of physical consumption for the soldiers, so we have to seize the time to rest tonight."
If you have enough spirits, you will have the strength to kill the devil tomorrow In addition, Commander Meng has other instructions, no" "No" Ma Zhenguo shook his head and said: "Only these, if there are new instructions, Commander Meng will definitely send someone to inform us." ”"Well, since that's the case, then you can go back and rest, and I'm going to go back to sleep.Before dawn, you can sleep for another three hours. ”Li Guotao raised his wrist and glanced at his watch, and said with a smile."
Haha, since that's the case, then I won't disturb the head of the regiment to rest."
Ma Zhenguo said with a smile, he finally got in touch with the main force, and the commander also sent new instructions, which can be regarded as a reassuring pill for Ma Zhenguo, and this kid was naturally very happy in his heart at this time."
Well, then you can go by yourself, I won't send it."
Li Guotao said that he was about to take off his clothes and go to bed and continue to sleep.Ma Zhenguo shook his head helplessly, and said casually: "Okay, after dawn, I'm coming to you." ”As he spoke, he got up and left Li Guotao's residence.aa2705221:
