As spring begins, the rain increases.

New buds have begun to appear on some bare branches.

Inside the Juyi Hall of Heiyun Village.

Kong Jie and Xie Yulin rode non-stop and quickly arrived at Heiyun Village.

"Captain Kong, Staff Officer Xie, please take a seat. You've arrived just in time." Lin Tianchen greeted Kong Jie and Xie Yulin with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Kong Jie's honest face was filled with smiles. He nodded and sat down with Xie Yulin. The two had rehearsed this battle many times in the command room of the regiment headquarters.

If they wanted to end the battle before the Japanese reinforcements arrived, and achieve a quick victory in such a large battlefield, they knew they couldn't do it, and they could only rely on Lin Tianchen.

After Lin Tianchen finished speaking, he turned to look at Wang Jiantang and said, "Go on."

But just as he sat down and Wang Jiantang organized his words, the voice came again.

"Commander, this battle must be fought quickly. There should be heavy firepower at the high points around Luokuipo. We have captured quite a few heavy machine guns, and we have plenty of ammunition. When the time comes, we can surround and drive the Japanese into this area with a wide view, and then we can directly use heavy firepower to eliminate them."

As soon as Wang Jiantang finished speaking, Li Weiguo nodded in agreement and pointed to Luokui Slope on the map:

"We're conducting a surprise attack, and also a mobile war. The heavy machine guns' firepower must be deployed in a cross-fire pattern in the most difficult areas. These high grounds do need to be fought over, but there are actually many similar high grounds, so we will definitely have to give up some."

Li Weiguo frowned as he looked at the map. There were continuous mountains and undulating highlands here, which meant that no matter whether it was an ambush positional warfare or a surprise mobile warfare, there were many large bunkers available.

Once the situation is not right, as long as we retreat to the cover, it will become a positional war, which means that the duration of the war becomes uncontrollable.

"Why don't we just cut them off in the middle...divide these devils into two groups, and we'll be responsible for cutting them off."

Wang Jiantang thought about it, and made a move with his hand above the map, making everyone present focus on the long road of Luokuipo.

This proposal means that the cut-off team is likely to face nearly two thousand Japanese soldiers, and be attacked from both sides.

Even Kong Jie, who was standing by, widened his eyes and took a deep breath when he heard this proposal.

This idea, not to mention being bold, requires more trust in the flank team.

Kong Jie was very clear that if the battle on the flank continued to be deadlocked, or if it dragged on for longer, the team responsible for cutting off the enemy would be putting themselves in danger of death and leaving the possibility of survival to other troops.

If other troops fail to attack successfully and fail to eliminate the enemy in a short time, they may be destroyed themselves.

Furthermore, there were several Japanese strongholds nearby. Once the five-hour deadline was exceeded, we would be dead and unable to retreat.

By then, we will probably have to face the full-scale deployment of the Japanese troops from these strongholds, and the pressure can be imagined.

If Kong Jie himself were to use this kind of tactics, he would never send anyone to carry out the operation.

Because there are too many uncertainties here.

Kong Jie also thought that Lin Tianchen would not be so reckless. After all, it was very risky, and everyone's eyes turned to Lin Tianchen.

"This method has room for implementation and high returns, but it also comes with great risks. Let's wait and see..." Lin Tianchen pondered for a moment, then shook his head, without rejecting the proposal.

Because he now has enough artillery shells, he is indeed confident that he can cut off the Japanese troops and withdraw successfully.

However, benefits also come with risks, so this plan still has certain risks.

"Teacher, you have a dirty heart. You only come up with plans that benefit yourself..." Li Weiguo was instantly unhappy, because the only one who could do this was Wang Jiantang's battalion.

As expected, intellectuals kill people with blunt knives. This proposal, combined with the captain's precise control of the battlefield, still leaves a lot of room for maneuver, and the risk will be reduced with the bombardment of the pillars.

After all, the artillery platoon has long been upgraded to a company, with thirty mortars and more than 500 artillery shells. With the support of artillery fire, especially with the regiment commander cooperating with Zhuzi's artillery fire attack, the team responsible for cutting off the enemy will naturally become relatively safe.

Wang Jiantang ignored Li Weiguo and said seriously:

"Commander, our First Battalion has the largest number of people, so we naturally have to bear the most difficult tasks. We are all elite soldiers who can fight the Japanese. This cutting mission will be handed over to our First Battalion. I will definitely drag out the time to annihilate them and end the battle as quickly as possible."

Wang Jiantang said this, his eyes full of passion, as if he was waiting for Lin Tianchen's order.

But as soon as Wang Jiantang finished speaking, Li Weiguo became unhappy. He admitted that the teacher was really brave when he picked up the gun.

I also agree with this teaching ability. After each battle, the soldiers always summarize together.

But when there was no fighting, Li Weiguo could only curse in his heart. This teacher had a dirty heart. He bullied them because they were fewer in number and came up with a plan that was beneficial to him.

"Commander, this should be our Second Battalion. We have a sharpshooter platoon in our battalion, and they're very accurate at hitting the Japs. If we go and cut them off, the Japs' firepower will definitely not be able to hold up. Besides, we can definitely carry out this mission together with the Third Battalion."

Li Weiguo patted his chest and spoke louder than Wang Jiantang.

Ding Jiaguo's eyes lit up and he immediately agreed:

"Yes, the first battalion has more people and can fight Captain Kong and his men head-on. The rest will be left to Captain Li and me to fight the cutting blow."

Ding Jiaguo was secretly glad that Li Weiguo reacted quickly. He almost fell into Wang Jiantang's trap. If Li Weiguo had not reacted quickly, he would probably only be able to receive flank tasks.

"When did you two become friends?" Wang Jiantang looked at the two men with a strange look, a hint of regret in his eyes.

When these two people work together, it is unknown who will be assigned the tasks.

"You are a teacher with 800 tricks..." Ding Jiaguo said speechlessly.

Kong Jie and Xie Yulin looked at each other, with a hint of strangeness in their eyes.

"Captain, don't they know that this mission is a life-or-death mission?" Xie Yulin whispered to Kong Jie.

If an outsider were to observe the scenes before their eyes, they would probably think that this person's task was the easiest, which is why there was such an argument.

But Xie Yulin, who knew the situation and had the map, was very clear about how difficult it was to cut off the line, as he had to withstand the firepower of the Japanese on both sides.

"They do this because they know that this mission is a life-or-death mission..." Kong Jie's voice was very low, but Xie Yulin heard it.

The two of them looked at the three people arguing in front of them, and seemed a little out of place.

They seemed to have no chance to speak throughout the entire meeting.

"Okay." Lin Tianchen said.

As soon as Lin Tianchen finished speaking, the three people who had been arguing just now stopped talking and sat down obediently, waiting quietly for Lin Tianchen's order.

"We haven't even seen the enemy yet, so how can we talk about arranging tasks?" Lin Tianchen shook his head. Although he was confident in Wang Jiantang's proposal to cut off the enemy, and the possibility of execution was very high, this was still the discussion before he saw the Japanese.

These can only be backup plans. Once you get to the front line and use visual maps to find opportunities, all these arrangements will be disrupted.

Lin Tianchen thought about it and pointed at the map with a long wooden stick.

"The first battalion will enter this position first and temporarily serve as the main attack front. The mountain area south of Luokui Slope will serve as the offensive position. Await further orders."

"The second and third battalions will enter this position first, lie in ambush on the flanks, and await orders. Each battalion must lay down telephone lines."

Lin Tianchen did not decide how to fight before going out. The battlefield changes rapidly. He would wait and see how the Japanese army plans to fight.

But Kong Jie, who was standing aside, always had an inexplicable sense of familiarity, and then looked at Lin Tianchen with eager eyes.

Lin Tianchen noticed Kong Jie's gaze, thought for a moment, and said:

"Captain Kong, there is something important..."

"That's what you said, Captain Lin." Kong Jie straightened his body. This feeling became more and more familiar.

"For this battle, we need your New Second Regiment to stay beside our First Battalion and cooperate with it..."

When Kong Jie heard that they were not behind the Second Battalion, his eyes lit up instantly: "Don't worry, Commander Lin, our new Second Regiment is not a pushover."

In fact, the last time he followed the Second Battalion, he was psychologically traumatized. The Second Battalion's charge was too crazy.

"Is your team assembled?"

"We've assembled. We'll be ready to go once we get the order."

After Kong Jie finished speaking, Lin Tianchen nodded and looked at Wang Jiantang and the other two.

"Notify the entire group to assemble."
