Douxing Valley.

On days when it snows heavily and the weather is bad.

It is difficult to distinguish between night and day, and the dark sky creates even colder weather.

In this icy weather, everything seems extremely small.

In the command room, Lin Tianchen rubbed his eyebrows lightly, his eyes looking at the map he had drawn.

At this moment, Fang Bailu walked quickly to the table.

"Brigade Commander, the First Regiment is at Antai Mountain, and the Second Regiment has already been exchanging fire with the Japanese at Bajiayuan. The new Second Regiment has already rushed to Antai Mountain during the night."

"This morning, the Dataizipo base, where the Independent Regiment and the New 1st Regiment were stationed, was bombed. Two battalions of Japanese troops appeared from the east and launched a direct attack."

"The Jincheng direction has been implemented after receiving our telegram. The 35th Division is on a forced march."

After Fang Bailu summarized the telegrams, he reported the relevant information one by one.

Upon hearing this, Lin Tianchen looked at the entire map. Since the Japanese drew the line to rule, the entire battlefield seemed to have become two battlefields, east and west, with Douxing Valley as the center and running from north to south.

In the west, the Japanese secretly mobilized two divisions to land from the sea and launch an attack on Pingtuo Mountain. The 35th Division was located north of Jincheng. Its current choice was to retreat south to help Jincheng withstand the Japanese in one direction.

In the east, fighting broke out everywhere, including Antaishan, Bajiayuan, Dataipo, a silent logistics regiment with a radio station, and the Fourth Regiment in Changbai Mountain.

It can be said that now several regiments of the Tiger Brigade, the base area and a division of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army have completely entered combat status.

All the battles took place almost overnight.

Although no telegram had been received from Jincheng and the 35th Division, Lin Tianchen knew that the Japanese would start to launch an offensive during the day and would probably engage in battle with the 35th Division within a day.

"Brigade Commander, the fighting is going on all fronts. The rear has been attacked by the Japanese. The entire front line is very long. You often say that what appears on the battlefield may be what is seen after the arrangement. Could this be..." Xiao Shanzi whispered on the side, marking the battle locations of each regiment on the map and drawing some lines.

Since last night, every telegram has come back reporting an exchange of fire.

Dataizipo, where a brigade had originally retreated, is now home to two battalions engaged in combat.

This strategic intention is too obvious, but it is precisely this simple way of fighting that makes the Huben Brigade feel restricted everywhere.

"Divide the troops to contain the enemy, fight with the enemy, and then gather the troops to defeat them one by one." Lin Tianchen's eyes were cold.

After many battles, the Japanese made some moves against the Tiger Brigade's mobile tactics. Just like this time, they mobilized all the troops on the entire line. The Japanese wanted to put a lock on each of their regiments, trap them, and prevent them from mobilizing, thus forming a local situation of more people against fewer.

Two divisions will go across the sea, leaving one division in Shengjing, and large-scale military operations will be mobilized in the surrounding areas. In this case, mechanized troops will be mobilized.

All signs indicate that the Japanese chose to continue fighting completely on the front line, with no intention of destroying the 4th Regiment. After all, the terrain of Changbai Mountain is very complicated.

The Japanese response really made Lin Tianchen uncomfortable, because the other side had an absolute advantage in military strength and a much better tolerance rate than theirs.

"Absolutely no mistakes..." Lin Tianchen murmured in a low voice. Now the string has been stretched very tight. If he is not careful, he will fall into the abyss.

Every team was involved. They learned lessons from the changes of the Japanese devils and responded step by step, using their advantages to make changes. They completely lowered their posture and maximized their superior military strength.

Even in winter, when their equipment level was infinitely close to that of the Japanese, the Japanese still found a way to make Lin Tianchen most uncomfortable.

Divide the troops to contain the enemy and concentrate to defeat them.

"I want to take back Jincheng... I also want Shengjing, if that doesn't work..." Lin Tianchen's eyes flashed slightly. The new second regiment replaced the first regiment. What he wanted was to lead the first regiment to open up some situations.

Only when the situation is opened up will their overall pressure be reduced.

Now we have too few troops, and if we really can't do anything, we have to make some sacrifices in order to take Shengjing.

..........

.....

Jincheng, Pingtuo Mountain.

All traces seemed to be buried by heavy snow, leaving only a bare forest.

Life is hard to find, only the sound of the wind tells of the past.

In the bare Pingtuo Mountain, in the command room where Lin Tianchen once stayed.

"Commander, the latest news from the reconnaissance company is that two divisions have landed and are advancing towards Pingtuo Mountain. They may not only attack us, but also Jincheng at the same time... If we bet wrong..." Li Hongyan said with a worried tone.

"You have to trust the brigade commander's judgment...If we bet right, the Japanese will suffer heavy losses. Have the soldiers covered up?" Gao Jiecheng's tone was very serious. After all, in war, the losses can be huge if you make a deliberate or unintentional move.

It also fits their goal of destroying the living forces.

"The trenches are all insulated with wooden planks. The heavy firepower is inside the trenches, covered by snow and wind. We're just waiting for the order to go in and start firing."

Li Hongyan reluctantly suppressed his worries. After all, compared with Lin Tianchen, his insights were insignificant.

Moreover, if Pingtuoshan succeeds, these two divisions will inevitably suffer heavy losses. Now the Iron Regiment has not only these three or four thousand people, but more than eight thousand. Eight thousand versus forty thousand may seem like a big difference, but if there are eight thousand in ambush and they have many heavy weapons, the casualties caused by a careless mistake will be terrifying.

This heavy snowy weather is the best weather to cover up their traces.

"Have the entire regiment ready for battle. Before the Japanese get close to Pingtuo Mountain, have them all stand guard. Also, have Jincheng act realistically. Once they spot the Japanese, they must act like they're shooting in a panic, fearing they'll get too close to Pingtuo Mountain. If their acting is as good as the Second Regiment's, I can definitely wipe out 20,000 of them in this battle. Even 30,000 isn't impossible."

Gao Jiecheng suppressed his excitement. For positional warfare, in addition to the terrain advantage, facing so many Japs, it was necessary to combine tactics, firepower, and other conditions to maximize the annihilation of the Japs.

Similarly, psychology is also very important. Now he has not learned enough from the Second Regiment. Otherwise, he could teach Zhang Tieshan and make Zhang Tieshan's performance better. In this battle, the Japanese will definitely flock to Pingtuo Mountain, thus ensuring the greatest casualties.

Suddenly, Gao Jiecheng heard bursts of dense gunfire.

Gao Jiecheng's eyes straightened instantly and he immediately picked up the telescope. He saw that a large number of plaster flags suddenly appeared in the south of Jincheng and were quickly circling Jincheng.

Jincheng seemed to have just discovered these troops and was firing frantically in an attempt to keep these troops and attract them to attack Jincheng.

However, these troops were out of shooting range, and their pace was so fast that it even had a hint of mockery, as if they could not be hit at all.

"Here it comes..." Gao Jiecheng's eyes lit up.

Seeing that the Japanese did not directly attack Jincheng, he felt a little relieved. Obviously, the information they transferred to Pingtuo Mountain was not known to the Japanese.

I thought this was still a field hospital.

In fact, if it were him, with a field hospital and a street fight in front of him, he would choose the former without hesitation. Maybe it would not cause a large reduction in combat effectiveness in the short term, but the blow to morale would be huge.

Moreover, once the field hospital is destroyed, there is no way to maintain long-term operation.

Furthermore, Jincheng is right there. If the defensive forces of Jincheng can be attracted out, it will be a two-pronged approach for the Japanese. Therefore, Gao Jiecheng believes that if the Japanese have some information about Pingtuo Mountain, they will definitely choose to attack Pingtuo Mountain first.

In order to prevent the news from being leaked, Gao Jiecheng implemented multiple confidentiality measures. Basically, no one could leave their sight, and many things were done at night.

"It's almost done..." Li Hongyan's tone was also full of excitement.

"Get ready, let them in and fight... open fire when they reach the designated location..." Gao Jiecheng's tone was full of seriousness. The game was already done.

What he has to do now is to inflict the greatest damage on the Japanese.
