Chapter 1493 Night Attack on Guangning City

"Since you, Old Cui, agree to launch an attack, then our two divisions will make the following deployments."

Qu Ercheng got the support and was gearing up to show off his skills.

But as soon as the words fell, Cui Xiaoyi stopped him.

"Wait a minute, you will deploy? Where do you have such a big face? Why are you deploying?"

Qu Ercheng said as a matter of course: "I initiated the attack plan, and of course I will deploy it."

Cui Xiaoyi sneered.

"Put your face in the sun and see how big it is? You can also command me?"

Qu Ercheng blinked his eyes and couldn't help asking: "Snakes can't do without a head, but people can't stand without a head. So what do you say?"

Cui Xiaoyi raised his chest and looked up, doing his part.

"I am the commander of the 34th Division, and you are the commander of the 35th Division. I am older than you, and I am your senior. Of course I will command this battle."

Qu Ercheng quit on the spot.

"Your house is 34 bigger than 35, right? I think your skin is thick enough."

Seeing that the two division commanders were arguing endlessly over command authority, Yuan Kexiao could only smooth things over.

"Oh, I said if the two of you continue to fight like this, will there be a war? Since neither of you is convinced by the other, time is running out, so let me take care of it."

"Oh, hey, I can't tell, you Yuan Dajunzheng is worthy of being the direct disciple of the King of Song, and you are really a black-hearted man!"

"It is said that there are many minds playing with pens, and it is true."

Cui Xiaoyi and Qu Ercheng fought each other, pushing Yuan Kexiao back.

But who will be the commander-in-chief, the two of them will not give an inch.In the end, no one can convince anyone, and can only sacrifice the ultimate Dafa.

"rock-paper-scissors……"

"Oh, my stinky hand!"

Looking at his fist, then at Cui Xiaoyi's cloth, Qu Ercheng slapped himself in distress.

Command is thus determined.

Cui Xiaoyi, commander of the 34th Division, Zou Dingzhi, commander of the 35th Division, Qu Ercheng, commander of the [-]th Division, and Yuan Kexiao, the commander of the [-]th Division, formed the joint headquarters for the Guangning battle on their own.

After getting the command, Cui Xiu started to make arrangements.

"The soldiers and horses in Li Shutai's hands are mainly the Han army, and their combat power is limited. But we are also a second-line army and cannot be compared with the main force. It can be regarded as meeting opponents and meeting good talents. We must be careful when fighting."

Zou Dingzhi nodded, very sure of the commander's caution.

"Li Sutai is also a famous general of the Qing Dynasty, and his defensive deployment is relatively complete. Without a proper plan, our casualties will not be too small."

Although they are all generals of the Security Division, Cui Xiaoyi and the others all have advanced training in military academies, and have also experienced in field troops, with very rich combat experience.

Qu Ercheng came up with an idea.

"After fighting for so long, in the eyes of the Qing army, our National Defense Army has sharp weapons. I think we can take advantage of this ideological error and catch Li Sutai by surprise."

Yuan Kexiao reacted as soon as he heard it.

"Are you planning to attack at night?"

As soon as this remark came out, the four main generals laughed wickedly.

In previous battles, because the weapons of the National Defense Forces were more powerful, most of the battles took place during the day.The Qing army was also defeated by the powerful weapons of the National Defense Forces, and it was not an opponent at all.

We can only find a way to launch an attack through the cover of night, hoping to make up for the gap in weapons.

After a long time, in the thinking of the Qing army, it never occurred to me that the National Defense Army was actually able to launch night attacks.

Taking advantage of this kind of thinking error, famous generals like Li Sutai had to be involved.

Cui Xiaoyi also thought this proposal was very good.

He added: "If we want Li Soltai to take the bait, we have to do the foreplay. I decided to launch an attack on Guangning City for three consecutive days starting tomorrow. After three days, we pretended that the attack was weak, and then died down. There is With this kind of cover, although Li Sutai will strengthen his vigilance during the day, the Qing army may relax his vigilance at night. That is our chance."

The clerk on the side suddenly asked: "Then the battle plan will be submitted to the cluster headquarters after the attack tomorrow?"

Cui Xiao didn't hit a single place in a fit of anger.

"You are stupid, submit the battle plan tomorrow, if the cluster command orders to stop the attack, isn't our work in vain?"

Then he said: "Wait until after the night attack before sending it out."

The clerk was very honest, scratching his head, a little confused.

"Then how do we count our attacks in the past few days?"

Qu Ercheng immediately gave an explanation.

"Fire reconnaissance. Well, yes, fire reconnaissance."

In Guangning City, Li Soltai has been suffering.

Although the National Defense Force outside the city has never launched an attack, and he has made it clear that the National Defense Force in front of him is only a second-line force with limited combat effectiveness.

But he is concerned about the overall situation.

The contact with the pass has been broken, and I don't know how the court is doing.

And he wanted to contact the Mongolian grassland, but he couldn't do it.

Li Soltai instinctively felt that the National Defense Forces seemed to be deploying a big chess game, and wanted to involve the entire Qing Dynasty.

He has already reported the situation to He Luohui who sits in Shenyang.

But what can He Luohui do?

The Qing army in the entire Liaodong region had only a small number of people. Even if ordinary Manchus were mobilized, they could only gather more than 5 people.

As a result, such a small amount of soldiers and horses had to be distributed to various places, which immediately seemed stretched.

Bad news is everywhere these days.

Li Shuitai is struggling in Guangning City, the Haizhou Guard in the south has been lost, and Liaoyang has begun to face the front of the National Defense Forces.

What chilled the Manchu people the most was that there was also an emergency from the North Korean border, and a large number of National Defense Forces had crossed the border.

The encirclement was like a spider's web, making He Luohui, Li Sutai and others feel powerless to struggle.

The violent gunfire made Li Shitai ignore other things and quickly set up defenses.

The National Defense Forces outside the city finally couldn't bear it anymore and launched an attack.

Li Soltai responded carefully and deployed cautiously, and fought back and forth with the National Defense Forces.

After a fierce battle, Li Suitai knew what he knew.

The National Defense Force outside the city is indeed a second-line force. Its combat effectiveness is completely different from that of the National Defense Force that attacked Jinzhou at the beginning, and its firepower is also much worse.

There are also more than 2 Qing troops in the city, and they are not at a disadvantage in terms of military strength, so they guarded fairly calmly.

The offensive and defensive battle lasted for three days before the Wehrmacht died down.

Watching the National Defense Forces retreating slowly, Li Soltai let out a sigh of relief.

If Guangning is guarded, Shenyang will be safer, and he can confess.

However, he was still cautious, and in the next few days, he still ordered his subordinates to strictly guard against death, and not to relax their vigilance.

But for five or six consecutive days, there was no movement from the National Defense Forces, and even he relaxed, thinking that the National Defense Forces should have no hope of attacking and would not come again.

Ten days later, in the dark of midnight, I couldn't see my fingers.

The reconnaissance companies of the 34th and 35th Divisions were combined to form the Commando.Led by Qu Ercheng himself, they moved towards Guangning City quietly.

Behind the commando, other units of the two divisions followed.

The decisive battle is tonight!
