Chapter 46 Chapter 46 Adjustment and Deployment

As a veteran of the battlefield who has been fighting for a long time, Fang Xianjue is well versed in the way of besieging a city and the psychology of defending an army.The victorious return of the 8th Regiment is of great significance. He instructed the political and industrial departments to organize the troops to send representatives, organize a small-scale commemorative gathering, and hold a welcoming ceremony. On the morning of July 7th, Xianjue personally attended the commemorative meeting and delivered a speech: "Brothers and friends: We gather here today, because today is of special significance. It is not only the anniversary of the July 7th War of Resistance, but also a great day to warmly welcome the brothers of my heroic 8th Regiment to return in victory. The 8th Regiment's The warriors broke through the enemy's heavy blocking, broke the Japanese army's iron wall encirclement, and returned to the arms of our army victoriously. It is really a joy to meet everyone in the city! I propose: I would like to extend a warm welcome to the brothers of the 8th Regiment who returned victorious and salute!

My 8th regiment broke through the enemy's formation with the strength of one regiment and rushed into the city.This fully shows that the Japanese army's position is not indestructible; the so-called iron wall encirclement of the Japanese army is not an impeccable iron barrel. The more than 1,000 warriors of my 8th regiment are as good as the other troops defending the city.With their new force joining the ranks of the city defenders, our strength is stronger and our confidence is more sufficient.The ghost soldiers have nothing to fear.Now we have repelled the devil's first full-scale attack and focused attack.The devil suffered heavy casualties, and was busy increasing troops and supplies, and they were still playing his wishful thinking.No matter how cunning they are like foxes, the guys in our hands are not vegetarians.Still call him back and forth!

We have the strong backing of the people of the whole country, and the support and assistance of various fraternal troops. The siege of the Japanese army will eventually fail; as long as our army is united and united, we can advance and break through it; we can defend Hengyang, the strategic core, while retreating. If the fraternal troops surround them instead, they can gather and annihilate the evil Japanese devils under the city of Hengyang. " Hush!There was thunderous applause at the meeting place, colorful flags fluttered, and the crowd was excited. "Down with Japanese imperialism!"

"Little devil, go back to your hometown!" "Victory belongs to China! Victory belongs to the 10th Army!" On the afternoon of July 7, a military conference attended by officers above the battalion commander was being held in the conference room of the 10th Army Headquarters.Commander Fang Xianjue is adjusting his deployment: "Commanders, since the start of the war in Hengyang, our army has fought bloody battles with the enemy for ten years and successfully defeated the devil's first general attack and the so-called key attack. This is the proper command of our army officers at all levels. , the result of the soldiers obeying orders and fighting hard. Judging from the current battlefield situation, it may not be as the committee said: just stick to it for two weeks. The strategy of the commanding department to hold a decisive battle in Hengyang is not yet practical. It seems that it will take time for the trend to appear; and the little devil will never be willing to fail, and will definitely make a comeback, and a bigger and more tragic battle is yet to come. Therefore, we must prepare for a longer battle, whether it is combat preparation In terms of material equipment and the psychological quality of personnel, we must prepare early and arrange early. We must not take it lightly, become paralyzed, and be dazzled by the temporary victory.

Judging from the enemy's offensive, its focus has always been on the southwestern suburbs.Our 8th Regiment successfully rushed into the city, which further proved that the enemy forces besieging the city in the north were very weak.Therefore, the focus of the next phase of operations will also be in the southwestern suburbs.For this reason, the military decided to adjust the defense deployment as follows: 1. In addition to the 7th Regiment of the 3rd Division serving as the back of the main positions of Yilaimiaoqian Street, Qingshan Street, Duxian Temple, and Yanglin Temple; the 8th Regiment occupies the second line from the northern half of Wuguiling Highland to Jielongshan Position: After the 9th Regiment handed over the position in the northwest of the city to the 190th Division, it immediately occupied the second-line positions of Tianma Mountain and Yueping Mountain.

2. The 190th Division will take over the garrison of the 9th Regiment of the 3rd Division at Yilaimiaoqian Street, Yanwuping, Duxianmiao, and Shiguzui. 3. On the left bank of the Xiangjiang River, the security along the river south of the Tielumen Wharf will be replaced by the temporary 54th Division (only one battalion). 4. Before the other troops are given orders, the task of sticking to the original position remains unchanged. After the meeting, all troops should pay close attention to the movements of the Japanese army, seize the gaps in the battle, and quickly change defenses; strengthen the fortifications to prepare for another battle! "

To this day, Fang Xianjue couldn't be more clear in his heart.There are only so many soldiers in his hands; everyone who needs to be arrested will be arrested, and there will not be any more!For the time being, the 54th Division actually only captured one battalion and one division headquarters; the 8th Regiment of the 3rd Division also entered Hengyang City as scheduled.That's all.We can only help each other, live and die together, and stick to Hengyang!Our side feels that we must make good use of every company, every soldier, every fortification, every hill, and every position, so as to give full play to its value and effectiveness in blocking the enemy.

At this moment, Fang Xianjue thought of the arduous battles, factional struggles, and personal promotions in these years, and his emotions were very complicated.If it is not for the peril of the country and the nation, if I really want to retire to the mountains and become a free monk on Nanyue Mountain, wouldn't it be better! I picked up the "Hengzhou Poetry Copy" given to me by Zhao Junmai, the mayor of Hengyang City, and read it.Seeing that the famous Tang Dynasty poet Song Zhiwen's poem "Late Parking on the Xiangjiang River" was quite satisfactory, he didn't feel very elegant, so he hurriedly called the orderly to come over to serve him with pen and ink, and wanted to copy down this poem full of profound meaning. The poem said:

Wuling lives in panic, Sanxiang looks haggard.In addition, when the autumn rains come, you can see Mount Heng from the outside. The road turns to the south by Peng, and the heart returns to the north by the wild goose.Only Yu looks at the hometown and tears, and the bamboo is stained with spots. Fang Xianjue first concentrated his mind and calmed down to get rid of distracting thoughts, then raised a large ink-filled brush and swayed it down like flowing clouds and flowing water, forming a magnificent cursive calligraphy work with brilliance, density and density, and strict layout. And so was born.

From this point of view, some beautiful things often happen inadvertently!The so-called intentional planting of flowers does not bloom, and unintentional planting of willows to make shade is also true! "Good! Great brushwork! Great momentum! Great calligraphy! Great work!" At some point, Sun Mingyu, chief of staff, accompanied Mr. Ge Xiancai, came in quietly.Seeing that Commander Fang is so elegant and has such a good work, he couldn't help applauding. Fang Xianjue was actually sweating profusely after all this swaying, as if he had collapsed.It seems that it has not moved for a long time, and it is a little rusty.But the block in my heart came out suddenly, and I still felt very happy and relaxed.With a slight nod to the two subordinates, the smile lines inadvertently passed over the corners of his mouth, but his eyes still couldn't leave the work.It seems that a mother who has just given birth is staring at her product.

That's the meat that fell from his body!It's all the fruit of hard work, but it's just that the mother has the pain of being pregnant for ten months, but I have to face the wall for ten years! "Junzuo, this work is mine! How is it?" Ge Xiancai spoke first. "You're the only one who will snatch it! I knew you were coming, so I'd write it later!" Fang Xianjue said in a pretentious manner while holding back the joy in his heart. "Okay, then it's mine! Hey, after the war, I will frame her properly and hang it in my study as the treasure of the town house!" Ge Xiancai said sincerely.He really liked the work, and he didn't mean to be flattering. "Sanzuo, don't argue with me! You are with the military seat every day, so there are so many good things to come!" Ge Xiancai hurriedly blocked Sun Mingyu's mouth again, as if someone would snatch the words. "Mr. Ge, how can I compete with you! Don't worry! There are indeed a lot of good things! Hey, look, what is this?" Sun Mingyu took out something after speaking. "What good thing?" Ge Xiancai took a closer look, his eyes were bright, and he couldn't let go of it.
