Liang Jian: Peaceful battle, I will bring a group to help the scene

Chapter 281 Get off the horse!
When Xu Rui heard the words, he immediately said, "I understand what the Chief of Staff means."

"Okay, then wait until the more than 4 devils commanded by the old devil Taro Takeshita kill the south bank of the Nanliu River Stone Bridge, and the friendly independent regiment and the 28th regiment will not launch a surprise attack on Datongcheng, an important town in northern Shanxi!"

Luo Youdu nodded, he definitely agreed.

Immediately, Xu Rui said to Gu Jiaping, the communication staff officer, "Follow the suggestion of the chief of staff, call back the new regiment of the friendly army!"

"Yes, group seat."

Gu Jiaping nodded, then immediately turned around and walked aside, ordering the communications soldier to immediately return a secret message to the Eighth Route Army's Xinyi Regiment.

And Xu Rui and Luo Youdu continued to look at the map on the table.

Not long after, Gu Jiaping came over with a freshly translated telegram, handed it to Xu Rui, and reported: "Team, reconnaissance company secret telegram."

"Um!!!"

Xu Rui nodded when he heard the words, then took the telegram from Gu Jiaping and read it quickly.

After reading it, Xu Rui was also a little surprised!
"what!"

Seeing Xu Rui was so surprised, Luo Youdu asked: "Tuan Zuo, what's the matter?".

"Chief of Staff, look, the little devil is really extravagant!"

Xu Rui smiled, handed the secret telegram sent by the reconnaissance company to Chief of Staff Luo Youdu, and then laughed.

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Luo Youdu also smiled and said, and then took the telegram without delay and read it.

It's just that after Luo Youdu read the contents of the telegram sent by the reconnaissance company.

Luo Youdu also smiled and continued, "Takeshita Taro, this old devil is really extravagant, so he used mortars all the way to the north to blast the road and the minefields on both sides of the road tens of meters away, detonating the metal mines we planted. and ceramic mines."

"It's really extravagant. It's about five kilometers away from the south bank of the Nanliu River Stone Bridge. How many mortar shells have to be fired like this!"

After a pause for a few seconds, Luo Youdu relieved his breath and continued to laugh, "If it were our 303 regiment, group seat, would you be so extravagant?"

"If I have as many shells as devils in my hands and use them without restraint, of course bombarding minefields with shells and detonating landmines is the best way to achieve zero casualties. It's a pity that although we have captured a lot of shells now, But save it too."

Xu Rui smiled when he heard the words, and said to Luo Youdu: "It's not as extravagant as the old devil Takeshita Taro.".

"According to the devil's bombardment, the landmines planted by the First Battalion along the road from Mingjia Town to the south bank of Nanliujiangshi Bridge and within tens of meters on both sides of the road were all detonated."

Luo Youdu, Chief of Staff of the 303rd Regiment of the Jinsui Army nodded, and said, "The devil is so bombarded, it is estimated that its army will probably kill the south bank of the Nanliu River Stone Bridge between 01:30pm and [-]:[-]pm."

"It's fast!"

Xu Rui looked at the map on the table of the two in front of him, and then said: "But, this is enough!".

"The first battalion from Mingjia Town to the Nanliujiang Stone Bridge's south bank bridge entrance and the landmines on both sides of the road within tens of meters are disorderly, forcing Takeshita Taro, an old devil, to kill Nanliujiang Stone Bridge as soon as possible. At the bridge entrance on the south bank, shelling must be used, which is the most convenient way to clear mines."

"Actually, this method of demining is also within my expectation. I was surprised just now, but I didn't expect that old Devil Takeshita Taro would use this method to quickly clear mines. It was indeed unexpected."

Seeing this, Luo Youdu said: "Wait for the devil to thunder all the way, and go all the way north.".

"It's a big sun, more than 4 devils are slowly marching northward on the highway, hahaha, it must be oily from the sun!"

Xu Rui smiled and said: "This is also our original intention of laying mines, to consume the spirit of the devil army.".

"After all, on the day when the war started, it was sunny all day long, and the sun was very strong! Although it is suitable for both the enemy and us to fight in broad daylight, the temperature during the day is very high! We did this, and more than 4 devils were on the highway Go slowly and wait for the bombardment in front to detonate our mines, the forward speed is naturally not fast. Even if you can hide in the woods on both sides of the road to rest, but with so many people, it is impossible to do so."

Luo Youdu nodded, naturally understanding what Xu Rui meant.

"The first battalion, the second company, and the third company have almost withdrawn to the south bank of the Nanliu River."

Luo Youdu reminded.

"Ok!"

Xu Rui nodded, and then said: "Let them cross the Nanliu River from the repaired Nanliu River Stone Bridge according to the plan, and wait for Chen Zhenping to withdraw with the first battalion and company."

"When we completely withdraw to the north bank of the Nanliu River, we will blow up the Nanliu River Stone Bridge again. Although it is a pity, there is no other way."

Luo Youdu nodded and said: "Understood, the order has been passed down."

"Tuan Zuo, our current temporary headquarters is on Woyupo Mountain. Next, we will face each other across the river. It is about five kilometers away from Nanliu River. The distance is a bit far. Do you want to move the headquarters to the south?"

Hearing this, Xu Rui stared at the map, then thought for a while and said, "Okay, the headquarters will move south.".

"By the way, let the artillery company, Wang Dazhu, put the twelve 36mm howitzers captured by the Devils after we killed the Devil's 41th Division and the 105st Infantry Regiment earlier, and put them on Woyupo Mountain!"

After a pause, Xu Rui continued, "In the future, I will get the artillery cooperation of the howitzers on Woyupo at any time."

"Okay! I will immediately ask Wang Dazhu to put the twelve howitzers on Woyupo Mountain!"

Luo Youdu nodded and smiled.

"That's it for now!"

Xu Rui looked at the map, and then said to Luo Youdu: "Chief of Staff, the headquarters is packing up, we went down Woyupo, and rushed to the woods near the north bank of the Nanliu River.".

"Yes!"

Luo Youdu's expression became serious, then he nodded and said.

Immediately, Xu Rui and Luo Youdu commanded the people in the headquarters to pack up their things, and then the headquarters moved south to a place in the woods about 200 meters north of the north bank of the Nanliu River to re-establish a new temporary headquarters.

And because the army of devils marched northward from Mingjia Town, they encountered a disorderly minefield of the 303st Battalion of the [-]rd Regiment along the way, and their marching speed was very slow.

Although Takeshita Taro finally ordered the artillery regiment captain Jiro Fukuto to directly mobilize mortars for cluster artillery attacks, detonating the metal mines and ceramic mines planted after the first battalion of the 303 regiment retreated north along the way.

However, after all, the northward speed of the devil's more than 4 horses was delayed.

Sure enough, more than 4 devils waited for the devil artillery regiment in front to detonate landmines with mortar shells at a safe distance before continuing northward.

In this way, the 41st Devil Division, the 2nd Brigade and the 16th Brigade under the command of Takeshita Taro, with more than 4 devils, were killed from Mingjia Town to the south bank of the Nanliu River Stone Bridge. At that time, it was already 23:[-] in the afternoon.

And this is when the sun is at its strongest in the afternoon.

Along the way, more than 4 devils were sweating profusely from the sun, and each devil soldier drank water from time to time, which was simply suffering.

When the old devil Takeshita Taro led his army of more than 4 devils to the south bank of the Nanliu River Stone Bridge, he was not only sweating profusely.

Moreover, before Takeshita Taro could breathe a sigh of relief, he immediately heard a piercing scream.

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

Major General Tada Hideki, the Chief of Staff of the Devil's 41st Division beside Takeshita Taro, had sharp ears, and immediately took a few devil guards to protect Takeshita Taro, "Division Commander, shell!"

"Tada-kun, hold on tight, the shells won't fall on us!"

Takeshita Taro saw the shells coming from the north bank of the Nanliu River, but after hearing the screaming sound of the shells, the old devil almost predicted where the shells would land, and waved his hand directly to tell Hideki Tada not to panic.

Sure enough, although there were more than a dozen shells fired from the north bank of the Nanliu River, all of them were fired from 75 mm caliber mountain artillery.

However, the dozen or so shells that suddenly hit the river only landed and exploded near the south bank of the Nanliu River Stone Bridge, about 70 meters away from the river.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom!"

More than a dozen shells exploded on the ground, and one of the shells fell into the Nanliu River, whether it was intentional or unintentional, and exploded a ball of sparks that shot up into the sky, which was very spectacular.

"Baga, Xu Rui is giving me a big blow!"

Takeshita Taro immediately realized what it meant that the 303rd regiment of the Jinsui Army had fired so quickly on the north bank of the Nanliu River, so he couldn't help but sneered and said.

At this time, Hideki Tada, chief of staff of the 41st Division, saw the enemy's artillery shells from the north bank of the Nanliu River, and even the forwards of his own army hadn't exploded, so he knew what the enemy meant. I'm a little flustered.
