Chapter 231 Checking the Defensive Position
Gao Xiaoqin looked at the Gundam in front of her and asked:
"Commander Gao, why are you here in this remote place?"
There was curiosity in her eyes, wondering why Gundam was here.
"No one has been here for a long time. If we hadn't been evacuating people and heard the gunshots, we would have rushed to support you immediately. Otherwise, you would be in danger."
She continued, with a hint of relief in her words.
Gao Da said, "Captain Gao, I didn't expect the Japanese cavalry to reach the border of Heyuan County.
This time I was planning to take a shortcut to the front line, but I didn't expect to run into the Japanese cavalry on the way."
He shook his head helplessly, feeling a little annoyed by this sudden encounter.
Gao Da looked at the wounded soldiers around him and asked Gao Xiaoqin, "Captain Gao, I have something to ask of you.
Now I have to rush to the front battlefield immediately, and the guards around me are injured. They can no longer go with me, so I ask you to help me take good care of these soldiers. "
Gao Xiaoqin nodded heavily.
"No problem, Commander Gao, don't worry, I will take good care of the Eighth Route Army soldiers."
She agreed to Gundam's request without hesitation.
Gao Da said with satisfaction: "Captain Gao, please come to visit the independent column when you have time."
After saying that, Gaoda led the guards around him to mount their horses and quickly rushed to the battlefield in Daling Village.
His figure quickly disappeared from everyone's sight, leaving only the dust raised by the horse's hooves.
.......................
Daling Village front-line command post.
Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and others were discussing the defense layout of Daling Village at the command center.
The atmosphere in the headquarters was serious and earnest, and everyone was aware of the importance of this battle.
There are many mountains in the area from Daling Village to Beigou Village. The independent brigade only needs to defend a few key positions to stop the attacking Japanese troops.
Mountains act like natural barriers, providing favorable terrain conditions for defense.
Li Yunlong gave a detailed explanation of the defensive positions of the three regiments, each of which had its own defensive area.
No matter where the 102nd Division attacks from, the troops in the other two areas will be able to provide quick support. The goal of the independent brigade is not to engage in a brutal positional battle with the Japanese, but to delay the Japanese army.
This tactical arrangement embodies strategic wisdom, achieving the greatest strategic benefit at the lowest cost.
The Ping An Brigade and the 386th Brigade will launch an attack on the 102nd Division from the left and right wings, so the mission of the Independent Brigade is very important. They must hold their positions and buy time for the encircled troops.
It's like a sophisticated battle plan, with every part fitting together.
Finally, Li Yunlong stood in the command center and said loudly:
"Comrades, the next battle will be very difficult. The independent brigade will face the crazy attack of the Japanese 102nd Division.
Whether the independent column can destroy the Japanese 102nd Division depends on whether our independent brigade can hold its position. Do you have confidence?"
"Yes, yes, yes."
Everyone responded loudly in unison.
Their voices were in unison and loud, full of fighting determination.
Li Yunlong said with satisfaction: "Very good, very good, everyone go back and make arrangements, the Japanese 102nd Division is about to arrive."
People began to leave the command center one after another and went down to arrange defensive positions.
In the command center, Li Yunlong raised his hand and looked at the time on his watch.
"Commissar, didn't the commander say he would come to the front battlefield? Why hasn't he arrived yet?"
There was a puzzled look in his eyes, and he was a little worried about Gundam's lateness.
Zhao Gang asked in confusion, "Yes, logically speaking, we should have arrived early at this time. Did something happen on the way?"
Li Yunlong immediately shouted outside the headquarters: "Huzi, come in quickly."
Hu Zi walked in and said loudly, "Here we are."
Li Yunlong stared at the guard in front of him and ordered: "Huzi, immediately lead the soldiers of the guard platoon to look for the commander along the main road."
"Yes, Brigadier."
Hu Zi accepted the order without any hesitation, turned around and left the command.
After Hu Zi left, Li Yunlong muttered to himself, "Commander, please don't let anything happen to you."
With a worried look on his face, he paced back and forth in the command center.
Not a few minutes.
Hu Zi trotted into the command center.
Seeing this, Li Yunlong hurriedly asked, "Huzi, why did you come back so soon? Did you find the commander?"
"Brigade Commander, the commander has arrived. I met the commander as soon as I set out." Hu Zi replied.
"That's good, go and get busy."
After saying that, Li Yunlong walked out of the command center.
His expression relaxed a lot, and the worry in his heart dissipated.
At this time, Gundam was leading his men to inspect the defensive positions.
His eyes were focused, not missing any possible problems.
Li Yunlong walked forward immediately after seeing Gaoda.
"Commander, I've finally got you here."
Gao Da smiled and said, "Old Li, your independent brigade has been doing very well recently. We often receive reports of your success. A few days ago, you even wiped out an entire regiment of the Japanese. That's really amazing."
There was admiration in his eyes, and he affirmed the independent brigade's achievements.
Li Yunlong chuckled.
"Commander, it is under your wise guidance that the Independent Brigade has achieved such results."
"Hahaha, Lao Li, stop flattering me. The headquarters takes this battle against the 102nd Division very seriously.
The 386th Brigade was specially dispatched to support us. Your independent brigade's mission is very important. You must stop the attack of the 102nd Division. Can you do it? "
Gundam said seriously, once again emphasizing the importance of the independent brigade's mission.
Li Yunlong immediately assured: "No problem, Commander. The independent brigade is guaranteed to complete the mission."
His eyes were firm and full of confidence.
Seeing this, Gundam nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay, Lao Li. Now take me to see the defensive position."
"All right, Commander. Follow me."
Afterwards, Li Yunlong led Gaoda to inspect several defensive positions from Daling Village to Beigou Village.
As they walked, Li Yunlong introduced the situation of the position.
Gundam focused on inspecting the anti-bomb holes on the battlefield. Every anti-bomb hole could save the lives of the soldiers, so it was very important.
He carefully examined the structure, depth and solidity of the anti-gun hole.
After the inspection, Gundam returned to the headquarters with satisfaction. In the next few days, Gundam will stay at the headquarters and stay at the front line to cheer for the soldiers.
He knew that his presence was a spiritual support to the soldiers.
