Chapter 198 Chen Ziyun Sends a Letter to Lao Li
The troops stationed in Mongolia have already begun to advance through Yanzhuang Town towards Qicun Town, and Chu Yunfei does not want to lose the battle in the first battle.

So he contacted Chen Ziyun directly, hoping that Chen Ziyun could quickly come to Qi Village to command the battle.

Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun communicated on the phone for a long time, and they didn't end the call until around ten past eleven.

According to Chu Yunfei's intention, he wanted to gather the absolute main force in all villages and towns to fight.

358 Regiment First Battalion, Second Battalion, Third Battalion, Artillery Company.

The brigade headquarters is directly under the guard company and the field artillery company.

Prepare the 11th Regiment Artillery Battalion, the Second Company of Mountain Artillery, and the Fifth Battalion.

Four infantry battalions, three artillery companies, one guard company, and more than 3000 troops deployed in Qicun Town for defense.

In the name of the independent commander of the 48th Brigade Infantry Artillery, Chen Ziyun unified command of these troops to fight.

Here in Xinxian County, the seventh battalion was left behind, and the artillery battalion was the main defense.

Shi Yu framed the Sixth Battalion to continue to undertake peripheral defense tasks.

The cavalry company and the fifth battalion machine gun company finished fighting northeast of the county, quickly bypassed the hilly area, and detoured to the area north of the reinforcements of the Mongolian Army to participate in the battle.

Chu Yunfei had made up his mind. He wanted to win this defensive battle against villages and towns, and he didn't want to lose the battle.

Chen Ziyun could only agree. He quickly called Liang Guoping and others together and explained in detail.

"Commander Liang, the second company of the Artillery Battalion Mountain Artillery has left, which will lead to a decline in the combat effectiveness of the artillery unit."

"If there are Japanese troops approaching, you are in charge of coordinating and commanding, and Li Yang is in charge of the specific operations."

"Chu Yu, the Seventh Battalion's fighting strength is not weak, but the will to fight is not tenacious. After Zhang Fugui leaves, you must quickly change their mentality."

"You are mainly responsible for the defense of the city. Once the Japanese army invades the city, they will directly start street fighting with them."

"Remember, no matter what, you must ensure the absolute safety of the county seat and artillery."

"Commander Shi, the Sixth Battalion is fighting on the periphery. There is no need to stick to the position. It can be dispersed and transferred at critical times to start guerrilla warfare."

"According to my estimation, the only one capable of fighting against the county is the Fourth Brigade formed independently from the hills."

"But they have been hit hard one after another, and there will not be too many troops that can be put into battle."

After the three battalion commanders came over, Chen Ziyun said with a serious expression on his face.

Among Liang Guoping, Chu Yu, and Shi Yu, the only one who worried Chen Ziyun was Liang Guoping.

However, there is also Li Yang in the Artillery Battalion. He is the deputy battalion commander and also the company commander of the Shanpao Company, with absolute command power.

Liang Guoping honestly did not interfere, and the artillery battalion would definitely have no problem fighting.

Chu Yu has always been Chen Ziyun's subordinate since he was the platoon leader of the ammunition platoon, and he can be regarded as Chen Ziyun's promotion.

This time as the battalion commander of the seventh battalion, Chen Ziyun personally recommended him.

Chu Yu has a strong learning ability, and he also has a good command ability. He believes that there will be absolutely no problem in entrusting hundreds of people from the Seventh Battalion to Chu Yu's command.

There is no need to worry about Shi Yuframe. Compared with Wu Ziqiang, he is only a little less qualified, and his ability must be above Wu Ziqiang.

"Yes, group seat." The three battalion commanders immediately replied with a salute.

Immediately afterwards, they began to return to their respective units.

After they left, Chen Ziyun called Monk Wei, the leader of the reconnaissance platoon.

The reconnaissance platoon is very strong, and they are absolutely good at attacking and defending.

In this battle, Chen Ziyun did not intend to take them with him.

The overall strength of the cavalry company and the fifth battalion's machine gun company is not weak, if they can help the new regiment take down highlands such as Pingdingshan earlier.

This force can detour to the side of the reinforcements of the Mongolian Army to attack, and can support all villages and towns to fight.

Therefore, Chen Ziyun is planning to arrange for Monk Wei to secretly go to the Pingdingshan highland area to directly support the new regiment in combat.

If the guard company, cavalry company, artillery company and other troops are the team trained by Chen Ziyun.

Then the reconnaissance platoon is definitely Chen Ziyun's confidant. They are in the independent 48th brigade and only recognize Chen Ziyun.

There is absolutely no problem in entrusting this matter to them.

"After you reach the Pingdingshan area, find the leader of the new regiment and give this to their leader."

"Remember, you must hand it over to their leader in person. If you don't see their leader, you can't hand it over to anyone."

"You change into casual clothes, don't wear the gray-blue military uniform of the Jinsui Army."

"After participating in the war, the reconnaissance platoon must make a quick decision and assist the Xinyi Regiment to take down highlands such as Pingdingshan as quickly as possible."

Chen Ziyun handed a letter to Monk Wei and said with a serious expression on his face.

The task of the system is to stick to the county seat until September [-]th, and now Chen Ziyun is leaving the county seat.

Although there are still two infantry battalions and an artillery battalion as the main force for defense.

However, the mission of the system cannot be careless. If the county is lost, the mission will fail completely.

Therefore, Chen Ziyun had to prepare with both hands. On the one hand, he asked the main force of the 11th regiment to defend the county with all its strength.

On the other hand, he provided support to Lao Li several times, and now it's time to get some interest back.

The content of this letter is that Chen Ziyun hopes that the Xinyi Regiment will be able to quickly provide support in case of an attack in Xinxian County and an emergency to ensure that the county is safe.

Li Yunlong is a ghost and a ghost, he looks rough on the surface.

But in fact, his inner calculations are also very shrewd.

In the original play, the Li family town mutinied, and Lao Li helped Chu Yunfei solve the crisis. As a result, he directly took away a battalion of weapons and equipment.

If Chen Ziyun didn't write this letter himself, and wanted Li Yunlong to do it, it would not be an easy matter.

There can be no mistakes in the county seat, so Chen Ziyun can only do this.

"Tuan Zuo, don't worry, we promise to complete the task." Monk Wei said solemnly.

The reconnaissance platoon assembled secretly, and Chen Ziyun personally sent them away.

After the reconnaissance platoon left, Chen Ziyun rode away from Xinxian County and quickly went to Qicun Town.

The Fifth Battalion and the Second Company of Shanpao were marching in the back, and their speed was definitely not as fast as Chen Ziyun's on horseback.

Chen Ziyun, as the officer who unified the command of the various departments, must rush to the front line as soon as possible.

At twelve noon, Chen Ziyun came to Qicun Town.

Chu Yunfei brought the main personnel of the brigade to the area south of Qicun Town.

The officers of the independent 48th brigade command organization gathered together and began to hold a combat meeting.

Chen Ziyun, who was the unified command, was not polite, and directly expressed his idea.

The Japanese and puppet troops are coming fiercely, and they may be assisted by aviation, artillery and other troops to attack.

Under such circumstances, if you carry out intensive defense, you will definitely suffer.

So Chen Ziyun directly put up a defensive formation in Qicun Town.

The battalion with the strongest combat effectiveness was deployed in Qicun Town for defense.

The second battalion and the third battalion were equipped with six Jin orogenic cannons, and six Japanese-style mountain cannons were deployed on both sides of the rear for defense.

The field artillery company, the guard company, and the fifth battalion were deployed on the highlands on the west side. They took the initiative to control the commanding heights on the west side, and could threaten the Japanese and puppet troops from the flanks at any time.

"As expected of Captain Chen, the deployment is perfect."

"Director Lin, you go to each battalion in person to pass on the orders from the brigade headquarters."

"From now on, all the troops participating in the battle in the villages and towns will be under the unified command of Chen Ziyun, the commander of the independent 48th brigade infantry."

"All battalions and companies must completely obey Commander Chen Ziyun's dispatch and command to fight."

"Anyone who is disobedient and disrespectful will be dismissed on the spot and handed over to the brigade department for severe punishment!"

After hearing this, Fang Ligong, the chief of staff, couldn't help but praise him with admiration.

But Chu Yunfei looked towards Qian Bojun and the others, and directly gave the order.

"Yes, the passenger seat." Chief of Staff Lin Zhiqiang got up and agreed.

He began to go to each battalion in person and directly dictate Chu Yunfei's orders.

The meaning of Chu Yunfei's arrangement is obvious, that is, all ministries must completely obey Chen Ziyun's command.

Of course, Qian Bojun, the acting head of the 358 regiment, still has to command the battle.

After all, it was impossible for Chen Ziyun to communicate directly with each battalion and company when he was fighting.

Chen Ziyun could use Qian Bojun to transmit combat orders to the various ministries participating in the war.

Of course, Chen Ziyun was very cautious about fighting, and it was impossible for him to be sloppy in the slightest.

The defensive deployment was arranged and designed by him, and no one knew the characteristics of formation defensive operations better than him.

So after attending the meeting, Chen Ziyun began to go to various ministries and give detailed instructions.

Especially the artillery unit, they are the key, and Chen Ziyun has to explain it carefully.

Fortunately, Zhu Mingxuan, the commander of the artillery company of the 358th regiment, and Sun Xiong, the commander of the second company of the artillery battalion and mountain artillery, are all his old subordinates.

Chen Ziyun must be very handy in commanding, there is no problem at all.

As for the fifth battalion, field artillery company, and guard company deployed on the western highlands, Chen Ziyun didn't have to worry at all.

The main force of the Independent 48th Brigade began to actively deploy defenses, and Chen Ziyun was ready.

At this time, Harada Kenzo had already set up a headquarters in Yanzhuang Town for the troops garrisoned in Mongolia to help them.

The division commanders, regiment commanders, captains, and captains of the little devils and other officers of the puppet Mongolian army all came here to participate in the combat meeting.

Kenzo Harada had prepared quite a lot of food for the officers of the Japanese and puppet army to feast on.

"I have already contacted the Fourth Independent Mixed Brigade, and they will fully cooperate in the next battle."

"The first and second battalions of the independent infantry, and the third battalion of the field infantry concentrated their forces to attack all villages and towns from the front."

"The nineteen artillery pieces of the independent and mixed fourth brigade will provide full support and cover the villages and towns."

"The Seventh Division of the Puppet Mongolian Army is assigned to the First and Second Guards to detour from the east side of Qicun Town, cutting off the connection between Qicun Town and the Jinsui Army in the south."

"Before four o'clock in the afternoon, completely annihilate the Jinsui army in Qicun Town and control this front line!"

After the officers had eaten and drank their fill, Kenzo Harada came to the map. He pointed to the location of Qicun Town with a serious expression on his face.

This time he dispatched all the main forces, leaving a field brigade of the Japanese army and a garrison of the puppet Mongolian army.

Harada Kenzo wanted to quickly take down Qicun Town with the cooperation of the artillery unit of the Fourth Independent Mixed Brigade, thereby opening a gap to attack the Jinsui Army.

"Gentlemen, this time Qicun Township is our first battle in Xin County. The independent 48th Brigade of the Shanxi-Sui Army has won successive victories and their morale is high."

"But we have an absolute advantage, so we must win, which will completely let their morale fall to the bottom."

"In this way, we can fully grasp the initiative in follow-up operations until they are completely wiped out."

"I hope that you can all actively command the troops to fight, and you must win, and you must not lose."

Looking at the officers of the Japanese and puppet army, Kenzo Harada had a serious expression on his face.

"Hi, Your Excellency General." The officers saluted one after another.

Immediately afterwards, they began to return to their respective units for preparations. At the same time, Harada Kenzo contacted the First Army Command as soon as possible.

He hoped that the Japanese air force would be dispatched to directly bomb the villages and towns, so as to assist his troops to win a big victory.

The Japanese and puppet troops began to prepare to attack villages and towns, and here in the highlands such as Pingdingshan in the northeast of Xinxian County.

The attack of Li Yunlong's new regiment is still going on, but so far, the new regiment has not made much progress.

Although there are not many little devils, they stick to the high ground and turn the high ground into fortresses.

They used light and heavy machine guns and grenadier rifles to intercept them one after another, and the bullets and grenades hit them precisely. Several attacks by the new regiment failed to achieve any effect.

"Zhang Dabiao, what's going on with your first battalion? Even though you have so many artillery support, you still can't rush over."

"I wasted a dozen shells for nothing. If you can't do it, you can withdraw it for me earlier, so don't embarrass me."

"The second battalion is ready to replace the first battalion to attack. I think the first battalion has been a little proud recently, and its combat effectiveness has declined."

"Zhuzi, what the hell is going on with you, so many shells hit the past, and I don't see how many little devils' weapons and equipment have been destroyed."

"Three infantry cannons, two mountain cannons, and five artillery pieces have no power at all!"

Li Yunlong began to scold his mother at the top of his voice, his eyes widened like copper bells.

At this time, a messenger came to Li Yunlong to report.

Hearing that someone wanted to see him, Li Yunlong cursed and asked the messenger to bring him over.

Monk Wei had already arrived here with his troops. After Monk Wei came to Li Yunlong, Li Yunlong glanced at it.

"Which part do you belong to? Tell me quickly. Don't talk nonsense. It will delay Lao Tzu's command of the troops to fight. Let's see how I deal with you."

"It's mysterious, don't have other ideas, otherwise you may not even keep the whole body."

Li Yunlong was in a bad mood, scolding whomever he caught, this was his old problem.

"This is a letter from our delegation to Commander Li, please read it."

Monk Wei observed Li Yunlong in detail before he took out Chen Ziyun's letter.

When Li Yunlong heard the word Tuanzuo, he realized that the group in front of him might be the troops of the Jinsui Army.

He took the letter and read it, but he was confused. The famous Li Yunlong didn't know many characters.

"If you have something to say directly how good it is, what are you doing here?"

Li Yunlong muttered and handed the letter to Zhao Gang who was beside him, and after Zhao Gang read the letter, his face became serious.

He came to Li Yunlong's side and said softly: "Head, this is a letter from Chen Ziyun, the head of the 11th Preparatory Regiment."
