Chapter 207 The 48th Independent Brigade rushes to support the battle

Chen Ziyun came to Xin County several times and never commanded troops to fight in Hesuo Town.

So he took a look through the window and knew whether he was in Hesuo Town.

Chu Yun asked Ye to test Chen Ziyun to see his analytical ability on the battlefield.

This point cannot be difficult for Chen Ziyun. After all, many things cannot be analyzed through observation.

Hesuo Town is not very far from Qicun Town. If there is a large-scale battle in the Qicun Town area, can the sound of gunfire be clearly heard there?

What's more, there is a fierce battle in Qicun Town, and it is impossible for Chu Yunfei and Fang Ligong to appear in Hesuo Town at the same time.

The two of them were neatly dressed, wearing red leggings. From that point of view, the 48th Independent Brigade did not have any fighting for the time being.

The troops stationed in Mongolia were repelled and returned to Yanzhuang Town. If they did not attack the 48th Independent Brigade, the direction of the battle from the east would be obvious.

"Brigade, attendant, the fourth independent mixed brigade and the reinforcements sent by the Mongolian army will definitely be together."

"They will gather in the hilly area, so those puppet troops coming east to fight will definitely be placed at the New First Regiment in Xinkou Town."

"Li Yunlong's troops defeated the Yue army in the Pingding City area northeast of Xinkou Town, and then carried out attacks in the hilly area."

"They effectively contained the independent mixed fourth brigade and strongly supported them to repel the troops stationed in Mongolia."

"Since the troops stationed in Mongolia are not fighting with them, they must have enlisted the help of Li Yunlong's new regiment to take action."

Chen Ziyun made an analysis, and as he finished speaking, Chu Yunfei and Fang Ligong showed expressions of admiration on their faces.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Ligong began to introduce the battlefield situation in detail.

At present, the puppet army is gathering troops to storm Xinkou Town, but the new regiment is not a vegetarian. The two sides have been fighting fiercely for a long time, and the puppet army has not gained anything.

Did the main force of the 48th Independent Brigade originally plan to follow Chen Ziyun's plan to gather troops on the high ground to the west of Qicun Town and deploy defenses to fight against the puppet troops?

However, since the puppet troops have gathered in the hilly area, they no longer pose any threat. They are currently in a confrontation with the Harada Kenzo troops.

It is worth mentioning that when Chen Ziyun was sleeping, at around 11 o'clock in the afternoon, the supplementary regiment came to the battlefield.

Of course, the supplementary regiment was arranged by Yan Laoxi himself. They were a supplementary regiment in name, but they were actually a field regiment.

The officers in the company were not selected by the commander's department, and the soldiers and weapons and equipment were not in full strength.

The supplementary regiment has three infantry battalions in the east, each battalion has three infantry companies and one machine gun company.

The cannon battery is equipped with four Type 24 heavy machine guns and two Jin-made 75MM mortars.

The infantry company is otherwise required to be equipped with Czech light machine guns, Chinese rifles and other weapons.

Most of the weapons and equipment of the supplementary regiment adopt the standard weapons issued by Dudongfa, and the number of Jin-made weapons is very small.

In addition, there is a mortar company and a mountain artillery company directly under their regiment headquarters, with four 82MM mortars and four Jin-made 75MM mountain cannons.

Counting the baggage company and other troops, their establishment is about 2,000 people.

Currently, Zhang Furun serves as the acting leader of the supplementary group.

After the troops arrived at the battlefield, Chu Yun ordered Xing Xicuo to inspect them.

There is no problem with their weapons configuration. The whole regiment has ten mortars of different calibers and four mountain cannons.

Twelve heavy machine guns, light machine guns and Jin-made submachine guns were also assigned to each squad according to the usual practice.

Moreover, many officers and soldiers can tell at a glance whether they have been on the battlefield.

But there is also a big problem with this unit, that is, whether they were drawn from different units and integrated together.

There was no tacit understanding between the officers and soldiers, and there were even conflicts. They were unable to exert their due combat effectiveness.

They asked if Chu Yunfei could really break up the supplementary regiment and directly integrate it into the 358th regiment, with 11 regiments in reserve.

Then with the leadership of those two regiments, those officers and soldiers can quickly integrate into the army and show their due strength.

Can you tell me whether the supplementary regiment was organized by Yan Laoxi or established as a field force?

Yan Laoxi also ordered many officers and soldiers to be loyal to him, so Chu Yunfei could not disrupt their organization.

Chu Yunfei couldn't break up the supplementary regiment, and it would be a headache to arrange for them to fight.

"Currently, the 358th Regiment's combat-ready troops include the second, third, and fourth battalions, and an artillery company of more than 1,600 people."

"The 5th, 6th, 7th and artillery battalions of the 11th Reserve Regiment only have more than 2,000 troops."

"The field artillery company, cavalry company, and guard company directly under the brigade headquarters did not suffer too many casualties."

"But those three companies have a total strength of 700 people. Counting the artillery unit, they have a combat force of more than 4,000 people."

"The first battalion needs to rest and recuperate, and then after a large number of wounded people have recovered, they cannot be quickly replenished to the first battalion, otherwise it will be difficult for the first battalion to regain its combat effectiveness."

"Although there are 2,000 people in the supplementary regiment, if we ask them to fight a tough battle, that unit may suffer heavy casualties."

"Please tell me if the supplementary group has just arrived and there have been heavy casualties. Is there anything they can do to explain to Commander Yan?"

Chu Yunfei looked at Chen Ziyun and couldn't help but said with a slightly melancholy expression.

In the final analysis, within the Shanxi-Sui Army, strength alone determines everything.

Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun are also capable, but they are not suspected by Yan Laoxi.

Of course, Chen Ziyun, who has been a man for two generations, also knows that everything will not go smoothly if he goes to Wei Junru's side.

There are more than 100,000 troops in Zhongtiao Mountain. I wonder if there are many side questions.

Shaanxi Army, Yunnan Army, Zhensong Army, etc., the Central Army is also in a very delicate situation there.

The principal of Accompanying the Capital wants to consume the motley army. During the battle, the Central Army will inevitably make some small moves.

But those miscellaneous soldiers are still not vegetarians, and they will not let themselves be slaughtered.

Let alone between the miscellaneous army and the Central Army, even if it is the same as the Central Army, there will be a lot of cross-examination, and there are countless things that undermine each other.

"In the past, Zhuge Kongming used straw men as soldiers. The supplementary regiments must be better than the straw men."

"Brigade, the supplementary regiment can take on defense tasks, which will free up many troops."

"How about the battle camp in Xinkou Town? They all asked for help. After all, their lips are dying and their teeth are cold."

"If the new group is defeated, then the puppet army will be able to completely free their legs to attack them."

"Now while they are attacking the new regiment, they can mobilize their troops and actively carry out operations to weaken their combat effectiveness."

Chen Ziyun thought for a moment and then made a suggestion.

All Yue puppet troops in Xin County have merged to fight together, and Li Yunlong's new regiment will not be in danger for the time being.

However, if the 48th Independent Brigade does not sit back and watch, given the current strength of the puppet army, it will not pose a threat to the new regiment.

If something unexpected happens to the new regiment, the 48th Independent Brigade will definitely be very passive in subsequent operations.

Therefore, for some reason, Chen Ziyunbu decided to attack immediately and coordinate the new regiment's operations.

"He had already intended this. They must have effectively supported their fight. Now that they are being beaten, they can't do anything to ask for permission. It is inevitable that they will be criticized."

"They need to discuss how to deploy and command operations, and they need me, Chen Ziyun."

"Xuan Yun, if I can continue to command, then they will fight with all their strength."

"Can you please annihilate the independent mixed fourth brigade again? It will definitely bring a devastating blow to the morale of the Moon Army."

"At that time, even if the 48th Independent Brigade suffered heavy casualties, there would be no nuclear regrets."

Chu Yunfei's face was firm and he said directly.

Chu Yunfei had already thought about supporting the new regiment in their operations.

Is he a person who has a good face and doesn't want to leave any stain on Dong?

What's more, Chu Yunfei is not ambitious about fighting there in Xin County.

If Chen Ziyun did not personally direct the battle, he would not feel at ease.

Moreover, there were really no available talents in the 48th Independent Brigade. Qian Bojun and Zhang Furun, Chu Yunfei was worried about letting them lead the battle alone.

Now that Chen Ziyun wakes up, Chu Yunfei naturally wants to immediately launch combat deployment.

Chu Yunfei, Chen Ziyun, and Fang Ligong began to discuss.

Servicemen soon sent the map over, and they immediately made an analysis based on the current battlefield situation.

At two o'clock in the morning, combat orders began to be transmitted one after another from the headquarters of the 48th Independent Brigade.

The 5th, 6th, and 7th Battalions of the 11th Preparatory Regiment, artillery battalion, and reconnaissance platoon assembled to the west of Xinxian County.

The supplementary regiment quickly advanced to the county seat of Xin County and took over the defense tasks of the county seat from the 11th Reserve Regiment.

The 2nd, 3rd and 4th battalions of the 358th Regiment, the artillery company, the cavalry company directly under the brigade headquarters, the guard company, and the field artillery company assembled towards Yanzhuang Town.

The first battalion and other troops will rest and recuperate in Hesuo Town and assume the regional defense of Hesuo Town.

Qicun Town area, otherwise it will be completely abandoned.

Chen Ziyun unified the command of the 11th Reserve Regiment, the Supplementary Regiment, and the 1st Battalion of the 358th Regiment.

Of course, to supplement the regiment, the 1st Battalion of the 358th Regiment is currently mainly responsible for defensive tasks. Basically, they do not need to command unless they encounter an attack.
