War of Resistance

Chapter 131 Gambling
This is not the time to care about small gains and losses, but the time for national righteousness!

On this point, Hu Jiaji knew better than anyone else that there was a shortage of grassroots officers on the front line, and he had talents in his hands, so he shouldn't hide them. Besides, it is not a problem at all to be a battalion commander with Sun Hong's talents. The three battalion commanders under him are already full, why not give him a chance?
It's just that Zhang Tianhai is still busy. He may not know that if he hadn't traveled across the sky, the first battalion commander at this time would not be Zhang Tianhai, but Sun Hong.

"Come on, let's go to the other side and have a look." Hu Jiaji said to the people around him.

"Yes." After receiving the order, the guards around him immediately ran to the front to call for the soldiers to move the boat and use it first.

At this time, the sky was already getting dark. Thanks to the friendly army's repeated snatching of positions with the Japanese army in the direction of Dachang, the headquarters of the 36th Division gained precious respite time and could take a temporary rest.

At this time, looking at Zhang Tianhai's busy back on the boat, Hu Jiaji couldn't help but lament that the young man's physical recovery ability is good, and he can continue to fight after being injured. Looking at himself, it seems that the recovery is not so good.

"Zhang Yulin, what the hell are you doing?"

Zhang Tianhai was busy arranging booby traps, when he heard a voice behind him, he looked back, wasn't this the one he was planning to drag down the head of the team, Hu Jiaji?Well, that's right, Head Hu is tall and mighty, with a dark face and square, just right to take the blame.

"Reporting to the group, I'm setting up booby traps. When the little Japan comes to attack our south bank, try to cause as many casualties as possible for them." Zhang Tianhai stood up and reported truthfully.

Hu Jiaji squatted down and looked at the booby trap Zhang Tianhai made with grenades, no more, no less, exactly five grenades, a bit like cluster grenades.

Hu Jiaji was born in the engineering department, so he is naturally a man of knowledge. Although he has led the infantry regiment for many years, it does not mean that his old profession is lost.He observed for a long time, and said, "Zhang Yulin, that's not bad. Your basic skills are very solid. With your level of digging and laying mines, even if you are placed in the Central Military Academy, you are at the level of an instructor."

"The Tuan Zuo is over-reputed, I have an immature idea, I want to discuss it with the Tuan Zuo." Zhang Tianhai said seriously, his face very serious.

"Oh? Tell me?" Hu Jiaji was very interested, and now he valued Zhang Tianhai more and more, not only for his temper, but also for his level.

Zhang Tianhai made a military salute, and said: "Yes, but the humble official said it, the regiment is not allowed to shoot the humble official!"

"But it doesn't matter." Hu Jiaji raised his eyebrows slightly, obviously his interest was aroused, he is an adventurist, since Zhang Tianhai can say this, it proves that Zhang Tianhai's idea must be bold .

"May I ask if Staff Officer Guo brought a map?" Zhang Tianhai looked at Guo Qiliang who was next to Hu Jiaji.

"Bring it." Guo Qiliang nodded, and then took out the map, which was an enlarged map of the Songhu battlefield.

At this time, the sky was not completely dark yet, and the words on the map could still be seen. Zhang Tianhai took the map and put it on the ground, took out a blue pencil and a red pencil, and then found the location of Suzhou Creek where he was.

"Tuan Zuo, Chief of Staff, look, we are now in Suzhou Creek, that is, here, our current position is very close to Dachang, and it is only 10 minutes away. As long as the Japanese army is in our Suzhou Creek position If the offensive is thwarted, then they will definitely gather in a small group in the southwest of Dachang as an artillery position, this is the best position for Japanese artillery to bombard the south bank of the Suzhou River." After Zhang Tianhai circled his location, he circled the small A tiny blank space next to the set.

Hu Jiaji's pupils narrowed slightly, staring at the blank space drawn by Zhang Tianhai, he did not speak, he was waiting for Zhang Tianhai's next words.

"Then according to what you mean, we want to eat the artillery regiment of the No.13 Division of the Japanese Army? It will be near Xiaoji, so it can be said that this is a very dangerous mission." Fang Zhengguo adjusted his glasses and said, he is not a playboy, he has real materials.

Zhang Tianhai smiled slightly and said: "You don't have to worry about this chief of staff. Now our army is repeatedly robbing Dachang with the Japanese army. Even if it falls, it may not be so easy for Little Japan to defeat our troops near Dachang. That is to say, at that time, the defense target of the Japanese army's heavy troops will definitely be our army around Dachang. Although Dachang was lost in the hands of the 69th Army today, the strength of the 69th Army has not been damaged much. Even today No matter how heavy the casualties are, there is still a certain strength.”

"Just the 69th Army? Is their combat effectiveness reliable?" Fang Ren questioned, and it's no wonder he questioned it. One army guards a big field and loses an afternoon of effort. How strong is their combat effectiveness?

Hu Jiaji didn't speak, just quietly listening to the conversation between the two of them.

"However, for the old guy Dizhou Libing, the 69th Army and the nearby troops of our army are nails on his back. As far as the current situation is concerned, they are also eager to compete with us for time. It is very likely that they will have to attack the south bank of the Suzhou River before they can beat off the 69th Army and our troops. Then the Japanese army on the north bank of the Suzhou River will become the target of the Japanese army's powerful pincer attack. The tip of the blade is extremely weak, and we can take this opportunity to launch a counterattack and eat the protruding part of the blade tip." When Zhang Tianhai spoke, his eyes were fixed on Hu Jiaji, because the latter was the one who made the decision on the spot.

Hu Jiaji looked carefully at Xiaoji, and said: "This is feasible. After all, Xiaoji is also the rear route of the Japanese army on the north bank of Suzhou River. Once this place is cut off, it is not impossible to eat the Japanese army on the north bank of Suzhou River... It’s just that our 36th Division received a defensive order, and if we disobey the military order, we will be shot!”

For this decision, Hu Jiaji had to think carefully. Now the 36th Division is responsible for defending the south bank of the Suzhou River with only two regiments. If the position on the south bank of the Suzhou River is lost, the Japanese pincer offensive will be even stronger. The Songhu battlefield is not a good thing, after all, the [-]nd Regiment is still fighting a defensive battle in Xinjingbei.

There is still some distance between Xinjing North and Suzhou Creek.

"Tuan Zuo, this opportunity must not be missed. If this time the fighter plane is delayed, I am afraid there will never be such a good opportunity again." Perhaps thinking of what Hu Jiaji was worried about, Zhang Tianhai continued: "As long as the Japanese army is eliminated Artillery positions, without artillery, the Japanese army wanted to take down the positions on the south bank of the Suzhou River just by bombing planes? Don’t think about it, one regiment is enough.”

It has to be said that Zhang Tianhai is also betting at this time, he is betting on the attitude of the head of the regiment, after all, if this plan is implemented successfully, then the follow-up troops of the national army will be able to counterattack along the positions on the north bank of the Suzhou River, and join forces with the 69th Army and other departments Launch a mighty counterattack and regain the initiative on the local battlefield!
