The big battle is coming, but the position is filled with a quiet and peaceful atmosphere, although the brothers of the fourth regiment have entered the fortifications, but everyone does not seem to be the slightest nervous, a few veterans even sang leisurely and played the erhu.
Zhou Wu took Ding Ning to inspect the position, and he used a telescope to constantly observe the movements of the little devils on the river.
Up to now, the Japanese warships were still in the old place, and they didn't see any signs of movement, Zhou Wu wondered, didn't the little devils plan to land from the Yangtze River, if this was the case, then where would they attack Jiangyin "I don't know if the military headquarters has the latest movements of the Japanese army."
Thinking about it, Zhou Wu was about to call the military department, and soon, the tired voice of the old army commander came from the phone: "Zhou Wu, you have something to do with me" "Commander, I found that there were Japanese reconnaissance planes and reconnaissance balloons in the sky, but the warships on the river did not move, and I couldn't figure out where the little devils were going to attack from, so I came to ask the military headquarters if there was any latest movement of the Japanese army."
"Oh, I don't have any relevant information here, but today the military commander Jiangyin Station transferred a piece of information, saying that the Japanese army has been active in Changshu recently, and as for their specific movements, it is unknown for the time being."
The old commander said.
"Commander, I'm wondering if it's possible for the little devil to attack Jiangyin from several directions at the same time," Zhou Wu said seriously.
"Well, judging from the consistent style of the little devils, as long as they have enough troops, they will definitely besiege Jiangyin from multiple directions, but the main attack direction is estimated to be only one, and the rest are all feints, all of which are just tricks for us."
"Therefore, you must figure out the real direction of the Japanese army's attack and throw the limited forces at hand to the most critical places."
The old army commander agreed with Zhou Wu's idea very much, and he also thought that the little devil would not honestly attack only one direction, and let the other troops stand still and just watch the excitement.
"Zhou Wu, which direction do you think the little devil is more likely to attack from," the old army commander asked.
Zhou Wu pondered for a while and said: "If I were the commander of the Japanese army, after fully understanding the terrain of Jiangyin, I would mainly attack by land, supplemented by the landing of infantry on the river, advance in multiple directions, use aircraft and naval artillery as fire support, and concentrate superior forces to launch a fierce attack on the Huashan position. ” "As long as you occupy Huashan, you can control the entire Jiangyin, and you don't have to worry about the Jiangyin Fort at all, because the fort is limited by its location and cannot pose a threat to Huashan.
After occupying Jiangyin, you can directly capture the fort from behind. ” "Once the fort is occupied, it can be condescending, carry out indiscriminate bombardment of the defense fortifications below, and then fully capture Jiangyin City."
Zhou Wu preliminarily talked about his views in light of the current situation of the national army and the Japanese army, as well as the actual situation on the battlefield.
"Very good, your analysis is good, we should think about it more, the little devil is flexible in war, and the conspiracy is impossible to prevent.
Only by accurately estimating the direction of their main attack can we quickly mobilize our troops and achieve the goal of defending Jiangyin. ” The old army commander told Zhou Wu not to be afraid of hardship and tiredness, but to let the troops run, move, and quickly maneuver to the place where they are most needed, only in this way can they withstand the Japanese army's attack on Jiangyin.
"Zhou Wu, once the devils launch an attack, you have to report their movements to me at any time, I will consider using the 11th Division as a mobile force and save it for critical times."
To tell the truth, the old army commander really can't draw people out of his hands, even the military guard battalion, which has also lost most of it in Changshu, and has not been replenished until now, and it is basically in a half-dead state.
Hearing this, Zhou Wu's heart was sour for a while, the old army commander was really not easy, he was a lot older, and he had to work the front line.
Originally, he could go home and hug his grandson, but in order to fight devils, he carried his weak body on the front line, which made people feel distressed.
Even the old army commander rushed to the front line to fight the devils, what reason did these energetic young men have to be afraid of retreating, what to complain about Thinking of this, Zhou Wu assured on the phone: "Commander, don't worry, I will never let the little devil pass over the position, unless all the independent brigades are killed." ” The old army commander nodded with satisfaction, and then he suddenly remembered something: "Zhou Wu, I heard that your home is in Nanjing, and now the Japanese army bombs it every day, have you found a way to take your family to a safe place?"
Hearing this, Zhou Wu felt a warm current flowing through his heart: "Thank you for your concern, Chief of Staff Ding has an old classmate in Nanjing, and I asked him to take care of it, there shouldn't be any problems." ” "Oh, that's good, if the situation is urgent in the future, you don't need to ask me, you can directly pick up the family, if you need help, let me know, and I will do my best to meet you."
Obviously, the old army commander was very concerned about Zhou Wu's affairs, so he was not stingy with his promise, and he didn't want Zhou Wu to have any worries, hoping that he would devote himself to the battlefield.
Zhou Wu was naturally very moved, and immediately said that it was not that time yet, so let's talk about it later.
After putting down the phone, Zhou Wu went to the position of the Fourth Regiment, and Gao Xiangfa hurriedly reported the information he had just obtained to Zhou Wu.
"Brigade seat, there is movement of the warship on the river, I guess if the little devil is going to attack here" Zhou Wu didn't speak, picked up the binoculars and looked at the river, just as Gao Xiangfa said, the Japanese warship moved forward a short distance in its original position.
However, due to the distance, Zhou Wu could not see clearly whether the warship was carrying a small boat such as a landing craft, but this abnormal behavior of the Japanese army made him nervous immediately.
Zhou Wu ordered all the people of the Fourth Regiment to immediately enter the position and prepare to prevent the Japanese army from rushing to the beach, and at the same time he ordered the fat man and Wang Ding, who were stationed in the second line of defense, to pay close attention to the Japanese troops in the direction of Changshu and not to be careless.
When he heard the fat man report that they had sent scouts, Zhou Wu said with satisfaction: "Lao Liu, you did a good job this time, but you have to remind these brothers to pay attention to safety, and if necessary, you can let them move closer to the 11th Division on the flank." ” "Brigade seat, don't worry, the scouts I sent out all have good skills, and if the little devil wants to catch them, he will have to practice for a few more years."
The fat cowhide blew with a clang.
Zhou Wu smiled slightly, he picked up the binoculars and looked at the river, his face suddenly gloomy.
Gao Xiangfa was good at observing words and colors, and when he saw that Zhou Wu's face was wrong, he hurriedly picked up the telescope and looked at the river.
At this time, the Japanese warships and landing craft were moving quickly towards the Jiangyin Fort, and Gao Xiangfa frowned and muttered: "Could it be that the little devil wants to forcibly land at the Jiangyin Fort?"
