After Zhou Wu and Ding Ning listened to Wang Ding's wonderful analysis, they couldn't help but take the lead in applauding, and the other officers also applauded with them, only the fat man reluctantly clapped his hands twice.
"Well, Wang Ding said it well, we took the initiative to attack, and the preemptive strategy is to hit the devil's baggage and garrison troops, and it is best to end their granaries and ammunition depots."
"As long as even some of the devil's baggage troops are knocked out, it can slow down their attack.
In this way, we should be sure to hold out for seven days by relying on strong fortifications, and we will have a relatively large margin of maneuver in time. ” After some explanations by Zhou Wu and Ding Ning, everyone's thinking began to change, but the pimple in the fat man's heart didn't seem to have opened yet, and he didn't say a word below with a gloomy face.
Zhou Wu had already noticed that the fat man's expression was wrong, and he asked directly: "Lao Liu, don't you understand that I have transferred five hundred people from your front as a mobile reserve?"
Although he was unhappy in his heart, he would never dare to confront Zhou Wu in front of him, as soon as he heard Zhou Wu point it out, he hurriedly defended: "No, I am afraid that if the preemptive action is not successful, it will not be a loss to Mrs. and a soldier."
The fat man's reaction was quite fast, and after hearing Zhou Wu's somewhat questioning tone, he immediately changed his tone.
Zhou Wu knew what the fat man had in mind, but in front of so many people, he didn't say it in public, which could be regarded as saving some face for the fat man.
"Lao Liu, I originally wanted to send you to be the captain of this mobile reserve, but considering your ability to hold the position, in the end, the chief of staff and I decided to continue to let you stick to the most dangerous frontal position."
"In our independent brigade, there is no officer who is more capable of fighting positional warfare than your old Liu.
I hope you don't let me down, I believe you can take your brothers to hold the fortifications in Changshu.
In addition, Lao Zhang, your howitzer battalion will be directly commanded by the fat man from today, so you don't need to ask me for instructions anymore. ” Zhou Wu put on several high hats for the fat man, and handed over the command of the artillery to him, and the face of the not fat man immediately turned from gloomy to sunny, grinning widely, and smirking.
"Or the brigade understands my Lao Liu, don't worry, our regiment is not blowing the position, plus with Lao Zhang's artillery support, it will be more bottom.
I promise to hold the position, even if I fight until the last man is left, I will be nailed to the position. ” Zhou Wu nodded with satisfaction, and then turned his gaze to Wang Ding: "Wang Ding, do you think that the baggage troops that will sneak attack the devils are not enough for five hundred people?"
Wang Ding said solemnly: "Five hundred should be about the same, too many people are not easy to maneuver, the key is that these brothers who participate in the operation must be agile and have good weapon configuration."
Only in this way can we come and go freely, fight when you want, and run when you want to. ” "Good brothers, you can choose in a regiment or a whole brigade.
As for weapons, I intend to gather all the flower machine guns of the whole brigade and give them to your mobile units for use, and if they are not enough, they will be replaced by Czech light machine guns. ” "In short, make sure that each of your mobile units has a burst of fire.
You'd better bring some of the box guns, a few 60mm mortars, which can enhance long-range firepower, and grenades are also essential, bring as many as possible. ” "But pay attention, you are going to sneak attack and harass the devil this time, and the combat principle is to fight if you can fight, and run if you can't fight, don't be reckless.
For the baggage and garrison of the devils, it is necessary to destroy them as quickly as possible, and then quickly evacuate the scene, so as to achieve the desired effect. ” "Otherwise, once you are entangled by the big army of devils, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Be sure to bring a radio or a flare gun, no, both, so you can contact the brigade headquarters at any time. ” Zhou Wu patiently told Wang Ding that the basic principles of this operation reminded them not to entangle with devils, and they must fight quickly and retreat quickly to avoid accidents.
Wang Ding immediately said that as long as there were enough repeating weapons and enough grenades, plus mortars, they would have a fight with the enemy, and even if they encountered a large force of devils, they would be able to fight and retreat without being bitten.
At this time, a staff officer of the brigade headquarters walked towards Ding Ning with a telegram, Ding Ning took the telegram and looked at it, his originally tightly knit brows furrowed even tighter, and he hurriedly handed the telegram to Zhou Wu.
Zhou Wu took it casually, and he was terrified when he saw that the telegram was forwarded to the 79th Army by the Shanghai Station of the Military Command, and then forwarded by the military headquarters to the combat units under him.
"According to military intelligence, about 20,000 people from two divisions of the Japanese army outflanked Changshu from the east, south, and west, and arrived at Sancha Port, which is 15 miles away from Changshu, on the evening of November 11, with the 146th Wing of the 13th Division of the Japanese Army at the front, followed by a baggage squadron of the 13th Division of the Japanese Army."
"The baggage troops were escorted by a Japanese combat squadron, and it is estimated that the direction of their attack may be the defense fortifications outside Changshu, and the movements of the rest of the Japanese troops are unknown."
Zhou Wu finished reading the message and looked at his watch again, it was already seven o'clock in the evening, and today was November 11th, and this little devil came really fast.
From their evacuation of Luodian to Changshu, it only took four or five days in total, and the forward troops of the devils arrived at Sancha Port.
You have to act now, or you may be dumplings tonight. didn't have time to think about it, Zhou Wu hurriedly asked someone to bring a map around Changshu, and the staff officer quickly brought an old map.
When Zhou Wu saw it, he was angry.
Not to mention that the map is shabby and crudely printed, the most infuriating thing is that the place of the Three Forks cannot be found on the map.
Zhou Wu really wanted to scold these staff officers, but thinking that the war was urgent, and the vanguard of the devils might quickly intersperse at any time, he was in no mood to scold people anymore.
In desperation, he ordered the fat man to hurry up and find a few ordinary people who were familiar with the local terrain, and to invite people over like uncles, not to be rude, to be polite, and to be respectful.
Now they don't have a map at hand, and they have a dark eye on the terrain around Changshu, and now the common people are living maps of the independent brigade.
After receiving the order, the fat man didn't say a word, immediately found a car, and drove to the outside of Changshu City.
After the incident, Zhou Wu told Wang Ding to quickly select people to form an action detachment, to set off before nine o'clock this evening, the first goal is to kill the baggage troops immediately behind the 146th Wing of the Japanese Army, plus a squadron to serve as an escort, the number of which is estimated to be seven or eight hundred.
"Wang Ding, you now quickly send someone out to reconnoiter the movements of the Japanese army, and set off as soon as you are ready.
Several other regiments were all brought to combat readiness at the first level. ” "Commander Sheng, you just came to the Independent Brigade, and you should have let the brothers rest for a few days.
But the little devil came too fast, there is no way, tonight your 396th regiment and the first regiment must pay close attention to the movements of the devil's vanguard and prepare for battle. ” "If you haven't received weapons and equipment yet, hurry up to Lao Xu to get them.
I have the same requirements for you, in any case, before nine o'clock in the evening, you must be fully armed and enter the combat position, with or without certainty and confidence" Zhou Wu issued a pre-war mobilization order, and this time it was a bit hasty, so that he couldn't react a little.
All the officers replied in unison: "Please rest assured, no problem" Sheng Pei said with a smile: "Brigade seat, look at what you said, when our 67th Army was fighting with the little devils in Nanhui, Shanghai, it was not like this one day.
I immediately ordered my brothers to go and pick up weapons and ammunition and ensure that they were in combat positions at the appointed time.
If it's a minute late, I'll see you. ” The Northeast man speaks boldly, and directly pats his chest to establish a military order.
Hearing this, Zhou Wu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Everyone, the devil has arrived at the door, let's gossip less, let's hurry up and prepare." ” Everyone hurriedly returned to their respective stations, and the originally crowded brigade headquarters suddenly became empty, leaving only Zhou Wu, Ding Ning and a few staff officers of the brigade headquarters.
Those staff officers had made Zhou Wu angry just now because of the map, and they all hid in the corner at this time and didn't dare to squeak.
Actually, it's no wonder that they are the broken map, and it took a few people a lot of hard work to find it.

Other maps either refer to the deer as a horse, Zhang Guan Li Dai, or it is old, broken and incomplete, and one of the maps is actually produced during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty.
The map that Zhou Wu got was the best, but the only drawback was that the scale of the map was a little smaller, and it could not meet the standards of military maps.
Zhou Wu didn't care about scolding these careless staff officers at all now, he was thinking about how to preemptively strike and knock out their baggage troops before the devil's advance troops could react.
Only in this way can we temporarily alleviate the current grim situation and avoid the annihilation of the Independent Brigade and even the entire 79th Army. t1706231537:
