As soon as Yang Erhu became angry, the scene immediately quieted down, especially the two staff officers who spoke before, who immediately lowered their heads obediently."
Hmph" Yang Erhu snorted coldly, turned to the young staff officer and said, "Tell me, what can you do to make us rush to Yutian in the shortest possible time." ”At this time, everyone's eyes couldn't help but focus on the young staff officer, the first time he received such attention, which made him a little embarrassed, his immature face was slightly red, he lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Yang Erhu, and said softly: "I don't know if the method I said is feasible, but it should be able to transport the main force of our newly formed Fourth Brigade to the Yutian front." ”"Whether it's feasible or not, let's talk about it."
Yang Erhu urged a little impatiently, Yang Erhu at this time was also in a hurry to go to the doctor, anyway, there was no way, it was better to listen to his idea first, in case it was feasible The young staff officer hesitated for a moment, and then said boldly: "If it is on foot, even if we can reach Yutian in time, I am afraid that the troops will lose their combat effectiveness because of the long march."
But we don't have to walk, we have recovered Changli, two trains have been seized from the Changli railway station, we can take the train to Tangshan, and then rush to Yutian on foot.It is about 220 miles from Changli to Tangshan, and if you take the train, if everything goes well, it will be a few hours at most. ”"Yes, why didn't I think of this" Yang Erhu suddenly realized, stretched out his hand and patted his forehead, and said with a look of annoyance: "I'm an elm head, just thinking that if I walk, these two hundred and sixty miles, one day and one night may not be finished, but I didn't expect that we could use the train to transport troops, haha" Yang Erhu was in a hurry just now, and his thoughts went into a misunderstanding, so he didn't expect to be able to use the train to transport troops."
There's just one more problem."
The young staff officer frowned and said, "I have roughly estimated that two trains can only transport about 3,000 people at most, and I am afraid that the main force of our army will not be able to completely transport the main force of our army to Tangshan." ”Yang Erhu couldn't help frowning and said: "Then squeeze it, and strive to pack more people" "That's not possible" The young staff officer shook his head and said: "The soldiers can squeeze in, but we not only have to transport people, but also some heavy weapons and equipment, so at most, we can only transport more than 3,000 people at one time."
In terms of the strength of our army, it will take at least two trips. ”"Then from now on, let the soldiers go to the train to rest, and immediately take the train to Tangshan."
Yang Erhu said with a serious face."
If it is transported during the day, in case it is bombed by devils, it will be troubled," a staff officer couldn't help but speak.Yang Erhu couldn't help frowning, waved his hand and said: "I can't care so much, at present, the main force of our army is fighting fiercely with the Japanese army on the western and southern fronts, and I think the little devil's plane may not have the spare time to bomb us." ”"But there is an airfield for the Japanese Kwantung Army in Shanhaiguan, and we have just defeated the 22nd Wing, so it is difficult to guarantee that the Kwantung Army will not retaliate against us, once the devil's reconnaissance plane detects it, our army is using the railway to transport troops, and if the planes are dispatched to bomb us, then we will be completely finished."
The staff officer continued.While everyone was discussing, the young staff officer was frowning and thinking, when he suddenly said: "I have a way to solve the problem of insufficient combat strength to a certain extent. ”"What's the way," Yang Erhu hurriedly asked.The young staff officer spoke: "We have not only trains, but also cars.After the capture of Changli County, our troops captured about ten trucks, and later we defeated the Japanese 22 Wing and captured about twenty trucks.If we were to requisition all the trucks of some foreign companies and factories in the city, we would be able to make up at least forty trucks, and if these trucks did not carry heavy weapons, they could transport more than 1,000 people at a time. ”When the young staff officer said this, he paused and continued: "From Changli to Tangshan is about 110 kilometers, and if you make a round trip, it will be 220 kilometers, even if you calculate at a speed of 30 kilometers per hour, it will only take about 7 hours to make a round trip, and from now until tomorrow morning, about 24 hours, we can make at least three round-trip trips, so that we can transport about 4,000 infantry to Tangshan, and it is only more than 40 miles from Tangshan to Yutian.
It will only take a few hours to arrive, and we can reach the Yutian front line by noon tomorrow, and in this way, we can also save a lot of physical strength of the soldiers. ”"Hmph, aren't you afraid that the car will be bombed by devils?"
a staff officer asked.Yang Erhu couldn't help frowning, and the young staff officer sighed helplessly and said: "Now we have no other way but to take a risk, the car can be disguised, and we should disperse as much as possible, so that we can avoid the bombing of devils to a certain extent, even if it is bombed, it can reduce the loss to a minimum, after all, a truck can only carry dozens of people at most." ”Yang Erhu nodded and said, "You're right, we don't have a better way at the moment.Moreover, the truck is maneuverable, and when it is bombed by enemy aircraft, it can also find a way to hide itself in order to reduce losses.But the train is different, once it is targeted by the devil's plane, it is a dead end, even if the devil blows up some important bridges, the train can only lie on its stomach. ”At this time, the young staff officer continued: "So the train can only depart at night to prevent the bombing of the devils, and the train can transport more heavy weapons and ammunition, and even then it should be able to transport some troops, so roughly calculated, we can transport at least five or six thousand troops to Tangshan before dawn tomorrow." ”Yang Erhu nodded and said, "That's it, immediately requisition all the trucks from the whole city, and transport the troops to Tangshan." ”"Yes," everyone replied in unison.At this time, a staff officer said: "Can we ask the headquarters to transfer some trucks from Tangshan to help us transport troops, so that we can transport more troops to Tangshan." ”Yang Erhu waved his hand and said: "There is absolutely no possibility, there are indeed a lot of cars in Tangshan, but now all the vehicles are forcibly transporting materials in Tangshan City, and it is impossible to have extra vehicles allocated to us, so we can only rely on ourselves now." ”aa2705221:
