When Zhou Wu heard this, he thought that he had caught up tonight, and he didn't know what this little devil had discussed with the Kuomintang recalcitrant army, and how they all attacked at once, one seized the fortress in the southeast direction and forced himself to retreat in Gaoyou Lake, and the other attacked head-on in the southwest direction, and under the attack from both sides, whether the Independent Brigade could hold Gaoyou Lake without foreign aid from the New Fourth Army was very suspenseful.
Zhou Wu saw that the situation on Ge Sanmin's side was critical, and hurriedly discussed with Ding Ning and them, who arrived in a hurry: "Ding Ning, I think that this time the Kuomintang recalcitrant army and little devils will not easily let go of our independent brigade, they want to uproot us, everyone think of a way, how can we get out of this predicament." ” Before Zhou Wu's words fell, the fat man below, Xiao Zheng and they shouted: "I said Brigade, although the subordinates of the devils and Han are fierce and have a large number of people, but we have the reeds and intricate waterways in Gaoyou Lake to rely on, and we are not afraid of those devils and recalcitrant soldiers who come to attack, although the situation in the southeast fortress Wild Duck Mouth is now very critical, but even if it is occupied by those guys from the security group, I don't think they may be able to hold on, we are there except for Ge Sanmin's second regiment to think, There is also a water battle team of Huang Shuisheng, it is difficult to fight a water battle in Gaoyou Lake and not be able to defeat those three security regiments."
"Fatty, don't underestimate the enemy, although we have a geographical advantage, but after all, the total strength is three or four times less than the enemy who is flanked from both sides, and the enemy's weapons and equipment are better than ours, and the devils will have the support of the heavenly plane during the day tomorrow, if they attack from all sides tomorrow and attack our lake from all directions, your regiment can ensure that the devils will not be attacked in the southwest direction" Zhou Wu said worriedly to the confident fat man.
"Yes, the brigade seat is right, if the little devils attack in multiple ways, we can only defend the waterways that have been fortified, and we really don't have the troops to defend other places, once the little devils enter the lake from places we don't expect, then won't we have to suffer from the enemy on our backs and be in a rather passive position If that's the case, we can only watch the little devils' gunboats and soldiers rush into the lake, but we can't draw extra troops to support your group."
Chief of Staff Ding Ning agreed with Zhou Wu's analysis and raised questions.
"Aren't we still three regiments that haven't moved, how can there be no extra reinforcements" The fat man was still thinking about Xiao Zheng's three regiments to reinforce his southwest direction, but he didn't know that these three regiments were the reserves in Zhou Wu's hands, and he would not use them easily until he had to do so.
In case the brain is hot and Xiao Zheng's three regiments are pushed up, and the enemy breaks through in any direction of Gaoyou Lake, then Zhou Wu's independent brigade is really ineffective, and the ground is not good.
In the past, there was also the Jiangbei detachment of the New Fourth Army to help in Jiangdu, but now everyone is entangled by the 50,000 or 60,000 Kuomintang recalcitrant troops and cannot get out, so how to talk about drawing troops to rescue Zhou Wu, I am afraid that at this time, Chen Guofu of the Jiangbei detachment still expects Zhou Wu to draw troops to deal with the Kuomintang recalcitrant army and help them relieve a little positive pressure.
"Fatty, I won't use this Xiao Zheng's three regiments easily, our independent brigade is not like before, what kind of field hospital now, the gun repair institute, and many villagers have to be protected, once the three regiments are topped, in case that direction is broken by the enemy, then those unarmed doctors, nurses and villagers in our rear will suffer a catastrophe, I will never allow things like the Nanjing Massacre to be repeated again in Gaoyou Lake, I would rather fight all the brothers of our independent brigade, It is also necessary to protect these unarmed brothers and sisters from breaking out of the siege and retreating to safety.
Zhou Wu said categorically to the fat man.
"Oh, so that's the case, then I know, don't worry, it's not me who is fat and bragging, if I can't hold the southwest tomorrow, you can settle accounts with me, even if there are a few groups of little devils attacking in, I will take my brothers to drive them out, I don't dare to pack tickets on land, we are still sure to stop the little devils from attacking in the lake."
The fat man's self-confidence spirit is quite good, especially in such a critical moment, and saying it can especially boost the morale of the brothers.
"Okay, then in this way, the southwest direction of Gaoyou Lake will be handed over to you, I won't say much other nonsense, I believe that your group will not live up to our trust, remember the fat man, no matter what happens, in case it is almost empty, quickly retreat towards the lake, leave the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, keep the seeds more important than anything else, our fight with the little devil is not a year or two can be done, don't be hot-headed and fight the troops at hand."
Zhou Wu encouraged the fat man to say, of course he knew that the fat man was a regiment of combat power, and he was also one of the best heroes on land, not to mention the water war that had been cultivated in Gaoyou Lake for nearly two years, as long as he didn't make big mistakes, the fat man and their regiment should be able to hold the southwest direction of Gaoyou Lake, but the losses of the brothers were hard to say.
"It's the chief of staff of the brigade, you are waiting for the good news of our group, I know that this battle is the last battle of our independent brigade, and it is also the first battle of our new fourth army, although I don't talk about those big truths, but I still know the stakes in this."
The fat man patted his chest and assured Zhou Wu.
After the fat man left, Ding Ning hurriedly suggested to Zhou Wu: "Brigade seat, I see that there is a lot of pressure on Ge Sanmin now, although he rushed over with the brothers of the second regiment, but the independent division on the shore in the southeast direction is still there, I am afraid that if they take advantage of Ge Sanmin and their return to rescue the wild duck mouth, they suddenly come back and kill a horse pistol, then Ge Sanmin's side will be even more difficult to get, even if Huang Shuisheng's special agent group and Ge Sanmin's second regiment snatch the wild duck mouth back, the southeast will be captured by the independent division, Once the southeast direction is captured by someone Han, the situation will be even more difficult to handle, and the little devils in the southwest direction may transfer troops to the southeast and attack the southeast of Gaoyou Lake together with the stubborn Kuomintang troops under Han someone, until they all compress us in the center of the lake, and then mobilize the air force and navy boats to surround and annihilate them, and wipe out all our independent brigades in the lake. ” Ding Ning considered the matter more comprehensively and concretely, he carefully analyzed the possible situations, and made suggestions to Zhou Wu: "Brigade seat, I think that since Xiao Zheng's three regiments can't move until the last resort, but now the situation in the southeast of Gaoyou Lake is indeed very critical, all we know is that there are only three security regiments and an independent division over there, and we don't know if someone behind them has sent more teams to come, in case of a breakthrough over there, there will be more Kuomintang recalcitrant troops behind, I don't think this situation will be better than the southwest direction being attacked by devils, I think it is better to arm the young and middle-aged people in the rear and temporarily form a team, with experienced veterans as commanders, first, to protect themselves, to protect those field hospitals and villagers in the rear, and second, to supplement the third regiment at any time as a reserve, so that a part of the brothers of the third regiment can be sent to reinforce Ge Sanmin, who is now in danger, and help Ge Sanmin's second regiment to plug the gap in the front of the southeast.
In case Han's independent division took the opportunity to come back and attack the front in the southeast. ” Ding Ning's analysis is very reasonable, Zhou Wu immediately agreed, and asked Ding Ning to implement it immediately, the sooner the better, anyway, the villagers in Gaoyou Lake have really come a lot in the past two years, as long as a little mobilization, they can form a temporary combat team, although the training and so on can not be compared with the fat man, but give them weapons, let the experienced veteran brothers lead them, it is better than being unarmed and waiting for the little devil to slaughter, there is a famous saying, It is better for a lion to lead a flock of sheep than a sheep to lead a flock of lions.
It is said that when Zhou Wu and Ding Ning were dispatching troops and were busy dealing with critical situations in all directions, Ge Sanmin, the commander of the second regiment in the southeast, was rushing to the fortress Wild Duck Mouth with his brothers in a small clipper.
Sure enough, just like the report of the brothers in an emergency, Ge Sanmin and the others had not yet arrived at that place, they saw the red-hot fire and the sound of guns that seemed to never stop one after another, the raging fire was about to burn the sky red, and the sound of all kinds of guns and cannons was endless, fierce and abnormal, Ge Sanmin estimated from experience that at least tens of thousands of enemies over there were attacking the fortress with only one company and a reinforced platoon, a total of 200 people, less than the fortress Wild Duck Mouth that the brothers were holding, and from the sound of gunfire, The situation of the brothers who held their positions was very bad, they might not be able to hold it out, and they had to catch up quickly, otherwise the enemy would take it first, and it would be a lot of effort to take it back.
At this moment, the brothers in the back came up to report to Ge Sanmin: "Tuanzuo, Huang Tuanzuo's fleet has arrived, Captain Huang asked you to hurry over" As soon as Ge Sanmin heard that Huang Shuisheng's special service group and the naval fleet had arrived, he immediately felt that the pressure had been reduced a lot, and hurriedly got on a small boat and rushed to Huang Shuisheng's boat, shouting to Huang Shuisheng: "Old Huang, hurry up and rush up to the shore for those security regiments besieging Wild Duck Mouth, I see that the brothers there can't support it."
Huang Shuisheng said to the anxious Ge Sanmin: "Commander Ge, there are too many people in the security regiment, we can pack up the boats they launched, but to drive out their troops on the shore, it is estimated that it is enough, according to the previous noisy situation, their three security regiments are divided into multiple directions from the shore to attack the wild duck mouth at the same time, the troops in the water will not be too many, at best, they are attacking the position on the other side of the wild duck mouth, I suggest that they quickly and fully reinforce the position close to the lake, and clean up the enemy there, Then attack another position in a big way. ” t1706231537:
