Chapter 277 Redrawing the Plan(1/2)
After Chu Yunfei finished speaking, Li Yunlong and Lu Ming couldn't help but look at each other.
The two of them looked calm on the surface, but there were great changes in their hearts.
Chu Yunfei's troops are currently gathered in the Wangwushan and Jiuligou areas on the left side of the advancing detachment.
Shanyang City is to the east of Huaiqing City. If Chu Yunfei's troops captured Shanyang City and stationed here.
The Henan North advancing detachment was attacked from both front and rear. As long as the situation changed, the advantage would be entirely in Chu Yunfei's hands.
Chu Yunfei was quite experienced, and he immediately found a favorable position for his troops.
Li Yunlong smiled and said nothing. He didn't know the danger involved.
Lu Ming was thinking about whether to join forces with Chu Yunfei's troops this time.
"Captain Li, Chief of Staff Lu, don't think too much. We had our own reasons for taking Shanyang City."
"Now our enemy is the Japanese and puppet troops. Don't worry, we will never stab you in the back."
"In this battle, we just want to prove our strength and gain the trust and support of the commander-in-chief."
Fang Ligong opened his mouth and told all the obstacles encountered in the expansion of the attacking division.
Chu Yunfei was sitting on a chair drinking water with a helpless expression on his face.
After Li Yunlong heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.
He lamented that it had been so long that Yan Laoxi was still doing this internally.
"Brother Chu, I'm sorry, I really couldn't hold it back."
"Tell me what your Jinsui Army thinks. Your Brother Chu's army is one of the few that can fight."
"According to me, Brother Chu has no problem in governing ten regiments, let alone five regiments."
"It's true that Yan Laoxi left a person as capable as you alone and listened to those people's nonsense."
Li Yunlong stood up, with a smile on his face, and directly comforted him.
Of course, whether these words are comforting or not, you can get the answer from the smile on his face.
"Brother Yunlong, be careful, that is my old commander, he is also in trouble." Chu Yunfei reminded.
Li Yunlong sat on the chair and kept smiling, but he didn't say anything.
Fang Ligong stood up and walked over, constantly explaining the situation.
It means that the attackers captured Shanyang City in order to prove their capabilities and gain support for expansion.
Secondly, it was to combat the arrogance of the Japanese and puppet troops and make them restrain themselves.
Third, they stated that they wanted to master the favorable terrain to facilitate the launch of operations in the northern Henan region.
All in all, there is one thing to say, that is, they have no bad intentions towards advancing into the detachment.
Regarding Fang Ligong's nonsense, Lu Ming had only one thought in his mind.
I believe you, you are such a bad old man!
Chu Yunfei's troops will definitely not act randomly now, but who can say for sure what will happen in the future.
If nothing else, there are many cases where they undermine each other and fail to help each other.
It is absolutely impossible for Li Yunlong and Lu Ming to believe what they say.
"Okay, Brother Chu, I believe in your character."
"Send the things here, and we will fight together."
"But as agreed, if you can defeat Shanyang City, it will be yours."
"But if you can't continue the fight, we won't be able to stop you for a long time."
"We still have our own things to do, but we don't have that much time to cooperate with you in the battle."
"One piece of ocean can't do the same thing as ten pieces of ocean. You, Brother Chu, come from a wealthy family, so you should know this."
Li Yunlong laughed for a while, then stood up and expressed his stance directly.
"Brother Yunlong, don't worry. We understand this. Just give us two days in two days."
Chu Yunfei also stood up, came to Li Yunlong, and said swornly.
The two began to discuss specific combat matters, and at the same time, Chu Yunfei began to arrange personnel to transport relevant items.
It was not until evening, after dinner, that Chu Yunfei left Jiyuan City.
"Lu Ming, this Chu Yunfei is a character."
After Chu Yunfei left, Li Yunlong slowly spoke.
"Detachment leader, he is indeed a character, but after all, he has not escaped your calculations."
"You can just let Chu Yunfei do part-time work for free, he still has to give you something."
"He is a character, and you are a character among characters."
Lu Ming came to Li Yunlong and said with a smile on his face.
When Li Yunlong heard this, he was extremely happy.
He took Lu Ming directly back to the conference room.
Zhao Gang and his cadres are still here, and they are constantly improving relevant combat plans.
After Li Yunlong and Lu Ming came over, they directly overturned the previous battle plan.
Now that the situation has changed, and Chu Yunfei's troops who are doing part-time work for free appear, their plan will naturally change.
Over the course of one night, Lu Mingshi, Li Yunlong and others began to quickly formulate a new combat plan.
At this time, in Anyang City, the brigade headquarters of the Fourth Cavalry Brigade.
At present, the Fourth Cavalry Brigade is a strengthened organization. Through the headquarters of the Front Army and the 12th Army, the headquarters is constantly being added. They have strong troops and horses.
Their main force was assembled in Anyang City, and a small part was stationed in Hecheng.
The third puppet army has been conducting raids in Shanyang City and Xinxiang City areas one after another.
At this time, they were advancing to the area from Hecheng to Anyang City to conduct a sweep. This was where the Fourth Cavalry Brigade was stationed.
In the northern Henan region, there is a headquarters for the Japs, with Taijiro Iida under unified command of the Japanese and puppet troops.
However, the command of the 4th Cavalry Brigade does not lie with Taijiro Iida, or even with the 35th Division. They are under the command of the corps headquarters.
Liu Qixiong, the commander of the Third Puppet Army, is quite knowledgeable and has not yet entered Hecheng and other areas to conduct raids.
He personally came to Anyang City to meet with Major General Kazaki Obara, commander of the Fourth Cavalry Brigade!
Without saying much else, a box of small yellow croakers was delivered directly.
Kazuaki Obara opened the box and found a golden little yellow croaker inside, with a smile on his face.
Furthermore, Obara Kazaki established direct contact with the Third Army of the Puppet Army, saying that he could ask for help at any time if necessary.
Liu Qixiong nodded and bowed one after another before leaving Anyang City.
With the support of the Fourth Cavalry Brigade, Liu Qixiong became even more powerful.
He successively commanded the troops to carry out large-scale raids, although he did not implement the three-guang strategy.
However, every village that was raided by the puppet troops was in a mess, with no chickens or dogs left.
Their raids here can be described as heinous crimes.
Many ordinary people have come to Jiyuan City, hoping that the Northern Henan Advance Detachment stationed here can make decisions for them.
The headquarters and division headquarters even issued orders to urge the advancing detachment to launch combat strikes as soon as possible.
On January 7, the advancing detachment prepared a complete combat plan.
At the same time, Chu Yunfei's attacking division troops also began to mobilize and get ready for battle.
Of course, Qian Bojun and Zhang Fugui still need to be used.
Chu Yunfei created an illusion and did not reveal the true combat goal.
In order to cooperate, the advancing detachment also made a series of actions.
Soon, a piece of information was delivered to the First Army Headquarters through Zheng Qianyi and Hirata Ichiro.
The content of this intelligence is that Li Yunlong's troops and Chu Yunfei's troops are about to attack the southeastern Shanxi region.
After receiving the news, the commander of the First Army, Yoshimoto Teiichi, quickly made deployment.
He began to prepare for defense. Of course, the little devils had no idea that this was false news.
While Li Yunlong and Chu Yunfei's troops were actively preparing for battle, Jinling dispatched troops to the headquarters.
General Commander-in-Chief Shunroku Hata met with Neji Okamura for several days to discuss.
Okamura Neiji's request was very simple. At least two divisions should be transferred to the First Army and the 12th Army to enhance their strength.
But now Shunroku Hata cannot mobilize any troops at all, and the two of them are constantly discussing.
To be continued...
