Commander Chen asked with a puzzled face: "What do you mean by this" Li Guotao was not selling Guanzi, and said with a smile: "The little devil is not a fool, if we just pretend to retreat, the little devil may not be fooled." ”Commander Chen is also a very smart person, and when he heard this, he immediately understood, frowned and said: "You mean that we really withdrew our troops from Jingcheng County to lure the devil into being fooled" Li Guotao nodded and said: "Only in this way, the little devil will feel that there is hope for a breakthrough, so he chooses to break through, and we can take this opportunity to defeat this little devil in one fell swoop, and even wipe it out in one fell swoop." ”Commander Chen frowned and thought about it, and felt that what Li Guotao said also made some sense, so he then asked: "Then how many troops are appropriate for us to retreat, if we retreat too little, I am afraid it will be difficult to lure the devil into being deceived, if the retreat is too much, if the little devil really breaks through, it will be difficult for us to stop the little devil." ”Li Guotao nodded with a smile and said: "Commander Chen is right, so the retreating troops should not be too few, I suggest that all the troops of the Taiyue Military Region immediately withdraw to Niangzi Pass, and advance to Yangquan, and take the opportunity to recover Yangquan." ”"What" Commander Chen couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise, and said with a look of disbelief: "Guotao, are you sure you're not mistaken, if all the troops of our Taiyue Military Region are withdrawn, only your seventh column will be left in Jingcheng County." ”Li Guotao said with a smile: "There are more than 10,000 troops in the Jizhong Military Region, and it is enough to deal with the defeated 20,000 devil remnants who are surrounded" Commander Chen looked at Li Guotao with a confident look, hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Isn't it too risky to do this, even if you add the troops of the Jizhong Military Region, there are only more than 40,000 people."
But after all, there are still 20,000 little devils in Jingcheng County, if they want to break through, I am afraid it will be difficult to stop this little devil with this little force, and it will be even more difficult to completely defeat or annihilate them. ”Commander Chen frowned, carefully examined Li Guotao in front of him, and couldn't help but think in his heart, this kid can't just fight a big victory and be carried away by the victory, Li Guotao said confidently: "Do you think we will definitely not be able to stop the little devil from breaking through, and the little devil will think so, only in this way will they choose to break through."
And I was sure enough to defeat them when they broke through.If all the little devils are hiding in Jingcheng County, we really have no way to deal with them, but as soon as they get out of the city and lose the city fortifications as a support, the initiative will be completely in our hands, and it will be much easier to defeat this group of little devils" Commander Chen frowned and groaned for a while, and said with a serious face: "Besides, is there no other way" Li Guotao sighed lightly and said: "I really can't think of any other way to solve the battle in a short time." ”Commander Chen nodded slightly, glanced at the attendees, and saw that everyone was frowning, all with serious expressions, and a few people were whispering with their heads down, as if they were discussing something, but no one spoke, and obviously they had no better way.Commander Chen sighed slightly, turned to Li Guotao and said, "How sure are you?""
Only fifty percent" Commander Chen frowned slightly, as if he felt that fifty percent of his grasp was too low."
Fifty percent sure can wipe it out in one fell swoop, if it is just a complete defeat of it, so that it can't pose a threat to Niangzi Pass in a short period of time, I have ten percent certainty."
Li Guotao said confidently.Commander Chen nodded, thought about it for a while, and asked with a serious face: "Guotao, you really decided to do this, in case of failure, I mean just in case" Li Guotao said with a serious face: "In case of failure, I am willing to bear all the consequences." ”Commander Chen hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I don't mean that, I mean that in case of failure, the troops of the Seventh Column and the Jizhong Military Region will be in danger, once the defense line is broken through by devils, our army will inevitably suffer heavy losses and suffer heavy losses" Li Guotao said with a serious face: "I understand, so this time we must not be defeated" Commander Chen saw Li Guotao's repeated insistence, and finally sighed lightly and said: "Since this is the case, then it is decided." ”"Thank you, Commander Chen."
Li Guotao nodded and said."
I should thank you."
Commander Chen nodded and said."
Haha" Li Guotao laughed, and said with a smile: "Then let's discuss the specific operational deployment, my idea is that the troops will rest overnight tonight, and Commander Chen will lead the troops back to Niangzi Pass early tomorrow morning, advance in the direction of Yangquan, and wait for the opportunity to capture Yangquan." ”Commander Chen nodded and said: "There is no problem with this, there are not many devils in Yangquan at this time, with the current strength of our Taiyue Military Region, it is not a big problem to take Yangquan." ”Li Guotao nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "After the little devils receive the news of the retreat of our army's main force, they will definitely choose to break through, and there is only one way to go in the direction of their breakthrough, that is, to break through to the east, withdraw to Houlu County or even Shimen, this is their only way to survive, and the main force of our seventh column will be arranged along the way to prepare to block the little devils, and take advantage of their breakthrough to defeat them, or even annihilate them completely." ”This is the chief of staff of the Jizhong Military Region Sun opened his mouth and asked: "Then what is the task of our Jizhong Military Region?"
Li Guotao said with a serious face: "The task of the Jizhong Military Region is to defend Zhaijiazhuang and block the small roads in the mountainous areas in the east and west of Jingcheng County, prevent the devils from scattering and breaking through, and wait for an opportunity to prepare for an attack on Jingcheng County.The focus is Zhaijiazhuang, although there are some small roads in other places, but it is difficult for the army to pass, but if the little devil counterattacks Zhaijiazhuang, after occupying Zhaijiazhuang, it can be withdrawn directly to Luxian County through the big ditch, this road can barely be used by the army, although it is a bit far away for the little devil, but we can not be unguarded, in case the little devil dog jumps off the wall and really takes this road, so in any case, we must ensure that Zhaijiazhuang is firmly in our hands. ”Chief of Staff Sun said confidently: "You can rest assured at this point, as long as I am here, the little devil will not want to pass Zhai Jiazhuang for half a step." ”Li Guotao nodded with satisfaction and said, "With Chief of Staff Sun's words, then I will rest assured."
This evening, all units will complete their handover tasks and arrive at their designated positions. ”"No problem, I'll go back and give orders."
Chief of Staff Sun nodded and said.aa2705221:
