Li Guotao frowned, his face couldn't help but show a trace of worry, he thought about it carefully, and then asked with a serious face: "If our army launches an attack early tomorrow morning, can we defeat the Japanese Seventh Division" "Well" Ma Zhenguo hesitated for a moment, and said uncertainly: "After all, this Seventh Division is the standing division of the Japanese army, and its combat effectiveness is still quite not weak, even if our army concentrates superior forces and besieges the Seventh Division, if we want to defeat it in a short time, I am afraid it will not be so easy." ”Political Commissar Lu nodded, and said with a serious face: "According to the plan, the armored division has set off to the north, and with the speed of the armored division, it should be able to rush to the northern front tomorrow to participate in the battle, but even so, our army only has a chance of winning at most." ”Li Guotao frowned, and then said with a firm face: "Even if there is only a fifty percent chance of winning, it is worth trying, after all, this is a war, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and anything can happen, so no battle can be done with 100% certainty." ”Political Commissar Lu nodded approvingly and said: "Guotao's words are reasonable, then you mean to launch a general attack early tomorrow morning" "Hmm" Li Guotao nodded, and said with a serious face: "If it drags on any longer, and waits until the Japanese reinforcements arrive, then this battle will be even more difficult to fight."
If we can defeat the Japanese 7th Division before the Japanese reinforcements arrive, then even if the reinforcements of the Japanese two divisions arrive, it will be useless. ”Ma Zhenguo frowned, and said with a worried face: "But what if our army can't defeat the Japanese Seventh Division before the Japanese reinforcements arrive" Li Guotao replied casually: "Even so, at most, it will return to the pre-war state, and a 57th Division will not have much impact on the entire battle situation."
As for the 14th Division on the Southern Front, there are teaching brigades and cavalry divisions, and there is absolutely no problem in delaying them. ”Political Commissar Lu nodded and said: "If this is defeated, then we can completely crush this five-way siege of the Japanese army, but if it fails, the situation will not be worse than now."
So I think this battle can be fought. ”Ma Zhenguo hesitated slightly, and finally nodded in agreement.Li Guotao glanced at Political Commissar Lu and Ma Zhenguo, his eyes gradually became firm, and he said with a serious face: "Since both of you have no opinion, then this matter is settled." ”Li Guotao breathed a sigh of relief lightly, and then ordered with a serious face: "Immediately pass the order, order the new 1st Division, the new 3rd Division, and the new 4th Division, concentrate all forces, and launch a general attack on the Japanese Seventh Division early tomorrow morning."
The armored division was ordered to rush to the front line as soon as possible to assist the above three divisions in launching a general attack on the Japanese army. ”Li Guotao paused slightly, and then ordered: "Immediately order the newly formed 2nd Division to launch a feint attack on the 1st Division of the Japanese Army after the general attack is launched tomorrow morning, so as to contain the strength of the 1st Division of the Japanese Army."
Ordered the aviation division, tomorrow morning to provide air support to our ground forces as best they can. ”"Yes" Ma Zhenguo replied respectfully, and then turned around to convey the order.Li Guotao sighed softly, turned to Political Commissar Lu and said: "Tomorrow's battle is very important, if we win, our army will completely crush this five-way siege of the Japanese army, but if it fails, the situation will be very unfavorable to our army."
Therefore, we must win this battle, and we must win beautifully, and we must beat the old devil Umezu Mijiro, so that this old devil will no longer dare to invade my base easily. ”"Hmm" Political Commissar Lu nodded, smiled and said: "Look at your expression, you have ideas" Li Guotao smiled and said: "I can't hide anything from your eyes, I plan to go to the front line to supervise the battle in person, so as to keep abreast of the battle situation on the front line." ”Political Commissar Lu frowned slightly, and asked with a serious face: "The war was more critical before, and I didn't see you go to the front line, why can't you sit still this time" Li Guotao explained with a smile: "In the past few days, in the face of the five-way siege of the Japanese army, the fierce battles on the north and south fronts have continued, I have long had the intention to go to the front line to see, but the doppelganger lacks skills and now it is different, the battle on the southern front has come to an end temporarily, at least we don't have to worry about the southern front for the past two days."
However, the battle on the northern front has reached the most critical moment, so I want to go to the front line to see, and the northern front is closer to Tongliao, if there is any special situation, I can also rush back earlier. ”Political Commissar Lu thought for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I know that even if I stop you, I can't stop you."
Since you are not at ease, then go for it, but be careful with yourself. ”"Commissar, don't worry, I'll pay attention."
Li Guotao nodded with a smile and said."
It's strange to believe you."
Political Commissar Lu naturally didn't believe Li Guotao's nonsense, shook his head and said, "I will instruct the guards to protect you well, you kid don't go too far." ”Li Guotao said with a wry smile: "You also sent someone to watch me, I don't think it's okay if you don't be honest, you can rest assured, after arriving at the front line, I will stay in the command headquarters, and I estimate that I will be back before dark tomorrow at the latest."
Without further ado, then I will rush to the front now and find out the situation at the front as soon as possible. ”"Okay, then, after you leave, this side will be handed over to me and Zhenguo, you can rest assured."
Political Commissar Lu nodded and said."
Well, there is a political commissar sitting here, I am a hundred rest assured, since this is the case, then I will go first."
Li Guotao said and turned around and walked out.Looking at the back of Li Guotao's departure, Political Commissar Lu couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head and said, "This stinky boy is still so impatient. ”After Li Guotao left the headquarters, he immediately ordered Kou Erbao to call someone to prepare a car and prepare to rush to the front line.Li Guotao did not bring many people, only one soldier of the guard squad, and several staff officers of the headquarters, and the group left Tongliao in a hurry and rushed to the front line.That night, Li Guotao rushed to the front-line headquarters, and Deputy Commander Li Changsheng and Yang Erhu, who were supervising the battle on the front, personally greeted Li Guotao and his party.Li Changsheng let Li Guotao into the front-line command headquarters, and explained with a smile: "The division headquarters of Changde and Lin Feng are far away, so they didn't rush over. ”Li Guotao waved his hand and said: "Let them not have to come over, just stay in their own division headquarters honestly, if there is anything you can contact by phone" Li Changsheng nodded and said: "That's fine." ”Li Guotao glanced down at the map on the table, the map clearly marked the deployment of the troops, Li Guotao looked at it for a while, and then asked with a serious face: "What is the situation now, how are the preparations of the troops, and can we launch an attack on time tomorrow" aa2705221:
