"Oh, then tell me about it, how to play hide and seek with the little devil" Ding Ning was very interested in the fat man's words, he had also had this idea before, but because this idea was too bold and afraid of affecting Zhou Wu's decision-making, he never put it forward.
"Abandon the partial defense of the front of Niushou Mountain and the left and right flanks, make a fuss on the complex terrain, lure the Japanese army to go deeper, divide and encircle, and gather and annihilate it."
"Although there are not many devils eliminated in this way, it is estimated that the Japanese army will not be able to withstand the number of small victories into big victories."
The fat man boldly put forward a plan to abandon the position and lure the enemy deeper.
When the others heard about this plan, most of them objected, and Gao Xiangfa was the first to stand up: "Brigade, I think this plan is too risky, and now we have countless pairs of eyes staring behind us, if we give up Niushou Mountain, what if those newspapers report that our independent brigade is a traitor who escaped from the battle?"
"We knew that the purpose of abandoning Niushou Mountain was to lure the Japanese army, but those above and the common people didn't know that when the time came, we would not be able to wash it even if we jumped into the Yellow River.
Please also think twice. ” Gao Xiangfa is reasonable, now the people are panicking, not to mention that the independent brigade took the initiative to abandon its position and retreat, even the slightest sign of a rout on the front line will be infinitely magnified.
Therefore, as the decision-maker of the plan, Zhou Wu could not ignore these influences, unless he let it go.
At this moment, Ding Ning, the chief of staff known as Zhiduoxing, was also silent, what Gao Xiangfa said was very realistic, these negative factors must be taken into account, otherwise there will be an uncontrollable situation.
Zhou Wu was in a dilemma, unable to make up his mind for a long time, and the plan of abandoning his position and luring the enemy into depth was the only feasible combat plan for the independent brigade at present, and the cost of casualties was minimal, but the risks he took were not small.
If the Japanese army is not fooled or sends traitors to spread rumors in Nanjing, then the independent brigade will be finished, and they will inevitably be infamous as traitors and will never be able to raise their heads.
At this time, a sentry hurriedly ran in: "Report to the brigade seat, the commander is coming" Hearing this, Zhou Wu immediately got up and walked outside, only to see the old army commander with Yu Shiming, the commander of the 11th Division, and several staff officers from the military headquarters.
"Report to the army commander, the junior is in a meeting to study the enemy situation, and ask the army commander for instructions."
Zhou Wuli saluted.
The old army commander said with a solemn face: "I know about you, I originally brought them here and protected them well, but I didn't expect an accident on the way, I blame me for this, I'm sorry." ” "Old army commander, I can't blame you, it's all my own fault, I was ruined by Little Japan, I will never die with them in this life, the army commander can rest assured, I will not be easily defeated, let alone be a bad seed" Zhou Wu was very grateful to the old army commander for coming to visit him, and took this opportunity to express his resolute position and determination to resist Japan.
All the officers who came with the old commander expressed their condolences to Zhou Wu, hoping that he would be able to mourn and change, and said that if there was anything they wanted, they would definitely help.
Zhou Wu thanked him one by one, he only said that the only way to comfort himself now is to kill more devils, and I hope the old army commander and all colleagues understand.
"Zhou Wu, you are in a bad mood due to this great calamity, do you want to leave for a while and go to other places to relax As for the affairs of the Independent Brigade, Ding Ning will take care of it first."
Hearing this, Zhou Wu suddenly felt a little overwhelmed, the departure of his parents, wife and children was not a big blow to him, and this kind of unforgettable pain could not be eliminated in a while.
He is also a human being, and he also has seven emotions and six desires, and it is pure nonsense to pretend to be like no one else after the loss of a loved one, and he needs time to heal his wounds.
At this time, an idea flashed through Zhou Wu's mind, and he immediately said: "Thank you for the commander's concern, I follow the arrangement, how to arrange it, I want to discuss it with you alone." ” What kind of person is the old army commander, he immediately heard the taste from Zhou Wu's words, it seems that Zhou Wu is a drunkard does not mean to drink.
Without much speculation, the old army commander agreed to Zhou Wu's request, and after breaking everyone else's side, the old army commander asked, "Zhou Wu, do you have any ideas again?"
"Yes, I suddenly thought of a battle plan just now, I don't know if it's feasible," Zhou Wu nodded.
"Tell me about it."
The old commander was looking forward to it.
"Commander, just now you said that I should go to the field to relax, so I think why not take this opportunity to give the Japanese army a bait."
Zhou Wu said.
"Oh, tell me, what kind of bait" The commander heard it and became interested.
"Commander, you published a message in the Nanjing newspaper through your connections, saying that I could not bear the fact that all my family members were killed, so I had resigned from the post of commander of the independent brigade and went to other places to recuperate."
The old army commander was silent for a while: "The little devils are so cunning, I don't think they can believe what the newspaper says." ” "The little devils may not believe what they say in the newspaper, but their spies lurking in Nanjing will certainly not be idle, and I can take the opportunity to order the independent brigade to retreat to Guanghuamen with great fanfare."
"When the time comes, the news will be released, and it will be said that Ding Ning, as the newly appointed brigade commander, was ordered by the military department to abandon Niushou Mountain and retreat to Guanghuamen for the sake of safety, trying to continue to snipe devils with the solid and tall city wall, I think these are all in line with common sense."
"In addition, it is best to let Division Commander Yu send a reinforced company to operate back and forth in Niushou Mountain, creating the illusion that the troops are changing guards on the position, as long as they can trick the little devils into attacking Niushou Mountain, then the victory is destined to belong to us, even if they react quickly, they will have to have some blood."
"Oh, I see, you mean that you want to deliberately withdraw from Niushou Mountain, let the little devils in, set up an ambush in the dangerous terrain, wait for the opportunity to divide and surround them, and eat them one by one."
"In this way, as long as the ambush troops do not fall empty-handed, the devils annihilated in various places will definitely have unexpected gains.
Zhou Wu, you are different from other people in fighting, you never play cards according to common sense, and you have a very Communist Party style of play. ” "I think that back then, I suffered a lot of losses from the Red Army in Jiangxi, and once I was almost made dumplings by them, but now I am really ashamed to think about it."
The old army commander said with a smile.
"Yes, but it is extremely risky to do so, first, whether the Japanese army will come, whether they believe that the Independent Brigade has withdrawn from Niushou Mountain, and what if they do not move."
"Second, if the Japanese army occupies Niushou Mountain and will no longer advance, or take on the task of blocking our national army troops from moving closer to Nanjing at Niushou Mountain, it will be troublesome, and I haven't figured out how to deal with this trick yet."
Zhou Wu said seriously.
"Well, what you said makes sense, both of these scenarios are possible, if the Japanese really occupy the position and do not leave, it will be a huge threat to the Nationalist troops southeast of Nanjing, like a big nail inserted in our middle."
"When the time comes, our 79th Army will not only be scolded to death by the people, but even Chief Tang and the chairman of the committee will not be able to spare you and me, and this matter must be carefully considered."
The old army commander said with a frown. t1706231537:
