Although Tian Kezhi was the acting brigade commander and the farthest of the four main brigades from the road positions, he never forgot his duty as chief of staff.

They have been attacking the Japanese positions for four days. Although they have made progress, they still have not completely driven away the Japanese troops.

Only by driving the Japanese troops away from the highway positions could they completely close the defense gate of the First Army Division.

If we continue to work like this with the Japanese army, the manpower and material resources needed to transport supplies to the front line every day will be astronomical.

"This method is good, but it requires close cooperation between artillery and reconnaissance troops. It is impossible for the mobile reconnaissance troops to carry radios."

The scouts had to move silently throughout the entire process and were not allowed to speak. Even when they were crawling, they had to be careful not to make any movement to avoid being discovered by the Japanese sentry.

"Artillery can't cooperate with infantry, so let's let infantry cooperate with artillery!" Tian Kezhi said, "Deploy a few artillery observers on the road position. The scouts plan the route in advance and let the artillery observers remember the route to avoid falling artillery shells.

On the scout's path."

"And the artillery shells must land near the scouts, because we don't know where the Japanese sentry is. Only the explosion of the artillery shells can cover up all the sounds. This requires veteran scouts, and they have to treat themselves as dead."

"We moved near the Japanese transport line and used mirrors to reflect the sun's rays to convey the coordinates to the artillery observers," Tian Kezhi continued.

"It's wonderful. This method is wonderful. With the coordinates, we can bomb the mountain roads controlled by the Japanese army every one or two hours."

Under the continuous bombardment, the road was destroyed, and the little devils did not dare to repair it easily.

"But we should have a good discussion with Lao Qin and Lao Zhu about this matter," Tian Kezhi said.

Qin Dongsheng is the top commander on the front line, and he has the final say on how the troops attack.

Zhu Hongsi is the commander of the artillery regiment, and he is most familiar with arranging artillery observation posts.

"It's not too late, let's do it now."

Having found a solution to the problem, Zhao Ziming didn't want to delay for a moment.

"Brother Zhao, wait, you just came back, you should rest first." Tian Kezhi reminded.

Zhao Ziming, who had just retreated from the road position and had no time to rest, immediately went to the headquarters and joined the large troops without stopping.

"Why rest? How many soldiers will be sacrificed on the front line during my rest? If we drive the little devils out of our defense area early, we will have plenty of time to rest."

Zhao Ziming didn't want the two-day holiday that Matthew Wen gave him. He wished he could be on the road position now.

"Brother Zhao, I will go with you."

Tian Kezhi hurriedly hung his own gun on his body and followed Zhao Ziming out of the brigade headquarters.

Within Qin Dongsheng's headquarters, two main brigade commanders, an artillery regiment commander, and the chief of staff gathered together. During the four-hour meeting, all details were discussed.

"Where are the scouts? If the scouts died, we wouldn't know!" Qin Dongsheng asked, "Also, the highway position seems to be very close to the mountain road controlled by the Japanese army. It may not be possible to climb over it in one night."

An operation may last at least one or two days, or at most three or four days.

Assume that it would take three or four days for the scouts to complete this task. That night, the scouts set off and were discovered by the Japanese army before dawn and died.

Qin Dongsheng and the others couldn't tell whether the scouts were still performing their mission or whether they had died.

They can't wait three or four days before sending scouts there. The time period is too long. In three or four days, a lot of things will happen in the frontline positions.

"The scouts will definitely not be able to move during the day," Tian Kezhi said.

There were Japanese sentries everywhere, and it was very easy to be discovered during the day.

"Yes, the scouts hide on the spot during the day, and then use mirrors to reflect light to our position to prove that they are still alive. If the sun rises and no feedback signal is received for two hours, treat them as sacrifices, and then send the next group of soldiers

." Zhao Ziming said.

Qin Dongsheng gradually recognized the methods of Tian Kezhi and Zhao Ziming, and then looked at Zhu Hongsi: "Lao Zhu, can your artillery fire accurately? I don't want to see our scouts die under their own artillery fire."

Zhu Hongsi nodded: "I promise to complete the task."

"Since there are no problems with the artillery, we will take this approach." Qin Dongsheng ordered, "If there is a problem, I will bear all the responsibilities."

After the meeting between the four people, Zhu Hongsi went back to select artillery observers and asked Zhao Ziming to take the artillery observers to the highway position.

Qin Dongsheng wrote a detailed report. Since there was action, he naturally had to write it down in detail and then submit it to Zhao Zhiguo.

Zhao Ziming took the artillery observers back to the road position, and then selected six groups of twelve veteran scouts, working in pairs, bringing water and food, and planning reconnaissance routes in two directions.

"Brothers of the artillery regiment, please keep an eye on one group each. This operation is a matter of life and death. Go ahead and don't let the shells hurt our brothers." Zhao Ziming warned.

Zhao Ziming returned to the road position that night, which surprised Zhao Zhiguo and Matthew Wen.

"According to the report sent by Qin Dongsheng, although the operation is somewhat risky, the price paid is not high and the success rate is high." Zhao Zhiguo said.

"I'm afraid it's just those old scouts..."

The old scouts are all the best soldiers in the army. They crawled out from the dead. Such soldiers are treasured no matter what army they are placed in.

"There is no time to lament and sigh. Now is the time to fight for our lives. If we don't fight for our lives with the Japanese army, sooner or later the Japanese army will kill us." Zhao Zhiguo said.

The road to national independence, the country's freedom from invaders, and its path to prosperity must have been paved with the flesh and blood of countless heroes.

While Zhao Zhiguo and the others were trying to find a way to break the situation, the Japanese army was looking for their key to open the door.

A Japanese military train carried Japanese special bombs and transported them to the frontline city, and then transported them to Heyun County by truck.

"boom"

The shells landed between the highway position and the mountain road controlled by the Japanese army. Taking advantage of the explosion, the scouts accelerated their actions.

The shells fell and the Japanese sentry was frightened and fell down quickly.

A place where artillery shells had never fallen was suddenly bombarded by Chinese artillery fire, leaving Monk Zhanger at the Japanese sentry post confused.

But the Japanese sentry did not suspect anything. Not far from the explosion of the shell, a Chinese scout was moving his body and squirming forward.

The scout imagined himself to be a stone, or a small bush, and the stars, the night, the sky, and the earth were all far away from them.

They are like ancient fossils that have been forgotten by the world, the same age as heaven and earth, and symbiotic with all things.
