Chapter 336 Combat Deployment

September 3, 1938, 6 pm.

Ouyang led the entire 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army, and as agreed with Commander-in-Chief Yu Hanmou, he marched towards Danshui Town, Huiyang County, Huizhou City.

Tamsui Town is located directly east of Guangzhou City, only 18o kilometers away from Guangzhou, adjacent to Hong Kong and Shenzhen.

Go south from Tamsui Town to reach Daya Bay by 30 kilometers.

In later generations, Tamsui Town was a nationally famous overseas Chinese town

On January 2, 1938, at 3 pm, Ouyang and others finally arrived in Tamsui Town.

In addition to the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army, Danshui Town also stationed nearly 10,000 troops in other places in Huiyang County not far away. It was the 151st Division led by Lieutenant General Moshid.

Commander Moshide personally welcomed Ouyang and his group in Tamsui Town.

"European Brigade Commander, Danshui Town is the center of Huiyang County and is located in the hinterland of Guangdong Province. Our main strategic defense zone is the east and north of Danshui Town. Now the eastern defense zone is handed over to your 512th Brigade."

East and North?

Ouyang nodded and smiled bitterly in his heart.

There are serious mistakes in the defense direction formulated by Division Commander Moshid!

His defense strategy only took into account the Japanese 6th Army and ignored the Japanese army on the sea.

Historically, the Japanese army marched from Daya Bay, 30 kilometers south of Tamsui Town.

The reason why Commander Moshid made such a judgment was because he did not believe in the Japanese army and dared to attack Guangzhou in the past one or two years at the risk of offending the British. This idea was also recognized by the vast majority of the national army.

Ouyang did not immediately explain all this to Moshide, mainly because the time was not right.

The Japanese army is about to attack Guangzhou. The fewer people know about it, the better. Otherwise, it is very likely to alarm the enemy and lead to the Japanese army launching an early attack. This is extremely unfavorable to their own strategy of defending Guangzhou.

On the evening of January 2, Tamsui Town.

Ouyang called all commanders and fighters at the regiment level and above in each department to the combat conference room to attend the meeting.

Chief of Staff Wang Yaqiao promoted the combat deployments of various departments in advance.

"The 885th Regiment, Zhou Weiguo, was deployed in the eastern area of ​​Tamsui Town."

"Yes, guarantee to complete the task!"

Commander Zhou Weiguo and Deputy Commander Kong Jie stood up to respond, with a little unnatural expression.

Seeing this, Ouyang laughed and knew that the two of them had some complaints. After all, according to everyone's judgment, it was absolutely impossible for the Japanese army to attack from the eastern part of Tamsui Town.

Ouyang emphasized: "Weiguo, Kong Jie, don't complain. There are tough battles next, and your regiment will need to be big battles. You must also build the fortifications east of Tamsui Town to me in a decent way, so that the outside world will not have doubts."

After hearing Ouyang's words, Zhou Weiguo and Kong Jie felt much more happy just now.

Wang Yaoqiao then deployed the battle.

"The Jiang Daya team of the 886th Regiment, your task is to lie down at night, sleep during the day, and work at night. Be sure to secretly build at least 20 defensive positions on this 30-kilometer road to Daya Bay, and give you 7 days!"

Upon hearing this, the regiment commander Jiang Daya and the deputy regiment commander Chen Feng both wooed each other, the elders.

Within 7 days, up to 20 fortifications were secretly built, and they could only be carried out at night, which would undoubtedly be very huge.

A nearly impossible task!

Ouyang said in a deep voice: "Jiang Daya, Chen Feng, I will ask you one thing, can it be completed? If it doesn't work, I will change people immediately!"

It’s over here, and it’s useless to say more.

Immediately, Jiang Daya and Chen Feng stood up immediately and shouted: "Please rest assured that our entire regiment will definitely complete the task even if we are exhausted!"

"good!"

Ouyang's face turned upright and said solemnly: "It's good to have confidence. What our voyage wants is this momentum, but please tell me Jiang Daya. If the task cannot be completed within 7 days, see how I will pick you up!"

"Chief of Staff, you keep going."

Ouyang turned his head and said to Chief of Staff Wang Yaqiao.

"Yang Zhihua's army in the Artillery Corps, Li Yunlong's army in the Independent Corps, your mission is to avoid the national army tomorrow night and secretly go to the Daya Bay area to wait for the orders of the brigade department."

"yes!"

Immediately, Yang Zhihua and Li Yunlong stood up and responded.

For a moment, Zhou Weiguo, Jiang Daya, Kong Jie and Chen Feng looked at Yang Zhihua and Li Yunlong with envy and solemnity.

What I envy is the Independent Regiment and the Artillery Regiment, which will be the main force in the fight against the Japanese Army's 6th unit. For their soldiers, it is a supreme and glorious thing to go on the battlefield as the main force to kill the enemy, even if they die on the battlefield.

As for the solemn look, they were worried for them. According to everyone's inference, the Japanese army they were going to face this time was not a regiment or a brigade, but a Japanese army above a division!

The difficulty of combat will be very huge. One mistake will lead to the danger of annihilation of the entire army.

The 512th Brigade believes in is not honor and military achievements, but sacrifice and dedication!

For a time, all three main regiments and artillery regiments received the task, only the Wolf Fang Brigade and a few directly affiliated companies of the Brigade Department were still on standby.

The captain of the wolf teeth, the dog-headed captain, sat upright, waiting for Ouyang's orders.

"Old Gao!"

Ouyang said in a deep voice: "Your Wolf Tooth Special Forces Brigade will temporarily withdraw 40 troops from today to form a wolf warrior team, with Long Xiaoyun as the squadron leader."

Hearing this, the dog-headed Lao Gao was stunned!

What I called for was not a task, but a command to split, and I couldn't help feeling a little relieved.

At present, how could Ouyang not know the dog-headed Lao Gao’s thoughts, and could also understand his mood at the moment, draw out some of his troops, and form a Wolf Warrior Squadron.

It’s like cutting a piece of flesh from him. How could he not feel distressed?

Finally, Ouyang's decision was to incorporate Xiaozhuang into the newly formed Wolf Warrior Squadron into the newly formed Wolf Warrior Squadron.

Immediately afterwards, Ouyang issued an order to Long Xiaoyun: "The mission of your Wolf Warrior Squadron is to seize the military supplies in the Yau Ma Tei Warehouse in Foshan and secretly transport them to Daya Bay!"

"Yes!" Long Xiaoyun stood up and responded.

Then Ouyang instructed her again, saying that this matter must be carried out in secret, so that it will be unaware of it.

After all, the Yau Ma Tei Warehouse is the military warehouse of the 12th Army. Ouyang led his troops to snatch it. Once it was exposed, the impact would be great!

"Old Gao!" Ouyang said in a deep voice.

"Here!" The dog-headed old Gao replied firmly.

"You Wolf Tooth Brigade, this time, will be the eyes of the entire brigade, and secretly lurk in the 18th Japanese Division located in Fuzhou, and convey the latest information to the brigade headquarters at any time."

"Yes!" Lao Gao replied.

The next morning, at the gate of the military camp in Tamsui Town, Ouyang bid farewell to political commissar Zhao Gang, Dai Tianli and Ye Cunxin.

"Bon Voyage!"

Ouyang held Zhao Gang's hands tightly, his expression full of reluctance.

The destination of Zhao Gang and the other two on this trip was Hainan, looking for the Hainan People's Self-Defense Army led by Cai E who was exposed by the system and requested their help.

Zhao Gang was the political commissar of the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army. He was cautious, calm and courageous, and was most suitable for contacting General Cai E.

However, they have many difficulties in their trip. If they are not careful, they may never come back!
