There are countless forts and strongholds outside Heyun County.

Going there on horseback, Zhao Zhiguo couldn't even get past the first Japanese stronghold.

"Political Commissar, if I don't go to Heyun County, I'll just take a look at the highway position." Zhao Zhiguo said.

Regarding the highway position, Zhao Zhiguo has his own obsession.

Many brothers died here in the battle, and many others were buried on the hills near the highway position.

Although it was a different past, there were many people who fought alongside Zhao Zhiguo.

He can think about the future, but he cherishes the past more.

"The other thing is to discuss with my brother how to clean up these strongholds and gun towers on the periphery. I heard that the puppet troops rely on these strongholds to do evil and bully the people."

With gun towers and strongholds, there are checkpoints; with checkpoints, there are charges.

If you want money, as long as you pass by a person and set up a clever name, you can bankrupt the passerby.

Pulling out the Japanese artillery towers in Heyun County was an inevitable choice, firstly for the sake of the local people, and secondly for the military operation to seize Heyun County.

"The highway camp is on the phone. Every night at eight o'clock, I have to hear your voice in the headquarters." Matthew thought of a solution.

He was really worried about Zhao Zhiguo.

Zhao Zhiguo would definitely give him a surprise or scare him when he couldn't stand it.

"If I don't hear the phone ringing at eight o'clock in the evening, I will send a telegram to the headquarters and tell the head of the headquarters that Commander Zhao of the First Military Division acted without permission, put himself in danger, and turned a blind eye to the troops."

Matthew Wen continued, "Yao Pengju, you go with the commander. If I know that the commander has gone to Heyun County, how will the headquarters punish the commander? You will accept twice the punishment."

Matthew Wen couldn't control Zhao Zhiguo, so he tried to control Yao Pengju.

Yao Pengju stood aside and felt that he was the most wronged person in this century: "Commander, you should be more honest."

Zhao Zhiguo did have the idea of ​​​​sneaking to Heyun County.

But he didn't expect that Matthew Wen would make such strict arrangements, so he could only agree to Matthew Wen's proposal.

In the early morning, the sky was gray and it seemed like it was going to rain again, and the air seemed to be wringing out water.

Zhao Zhiguo and Yao Pengju walked in the front, and platoon leader Xiang followed behind with a squad.

"Commander, are you so afraid of the political commissar?"

"Am I afraid of him?" Zhao Zhiguo wanted to prove that he was not afraid of anything, but when he thought about it, something seemed wrong, "Are you trying to sow discord between me and the political commissar?"

"How dare I sow discord between you? I think the political commissar did the right thing. Now that we have hundreds of thousands of troops, it is no longer time to fight in Anyang Town."

When he was in Anyang Town, Zhao Zhiguo and his brothers fought side by side in the same trench.

At that time, there were insufficient manpower and soldiers did not have the conditions to study.

Most of the soldiers didn't know how to read maps, and even if the models were placed in front of the soldiers at that time, they wouldn't be able to tell the clues.

But things are different now. After soldiers enter the army, they have learning tasks starting from recruit training.

Their military academies also have special mapping training. Although it is not that professional, it can make most people understand maps and make marks on them.

"Lao Yao, do you know the best proportions of the maps we used before?" Zhao Zhiguo asked.

Yao Pengju shook his head.

Even though Yao Pengju stays at the headquarters every day, he rarely pays attention to the map scale.

"One to ten thousand, this is the map we captured from the Japanese army. It is also our most detailed map so far. It was not drawn by us, but by a kid." Zhao Zhiguo said.

Military maps with a ratio of one to ten thousand are very common in the Japs' headquarters, and some can even reach one to five thousand, or even one to two thousand!

Those military maps were so detailed that Zhao Zhiguo was stunned.

The map at 1:10,000 is not a map of Heyun County. It is a map of the First Army Division drawn by the Japanese army when they attacked the First Army Division.

"In the headquarters, the most detailed map of Heyun County now is one to two hundred thousand." Zhao Zhiguo said.

The one to two hundred thousand military map looks like a mosaic on the video.

Although Yao Pengju did not pay attention to the most detailed map proportions in the headquarters, he had been marching and fighting all year round, so he naturally knew what the difference in proportions was.

"Commander, if you want to see the structure of the beehive clearly, there is no need to stick your head in, right?" Yao Pengju said.

"There must be two copies of the Japanese defense map near Heyun County. One is in the office in Gangcun, and the other is in the hands of the Japanese commander in Heyun County."

It's unrealistic to get the map from these two people.

Moreover, if these two maps are lost, the Japanese army will definitely readjust their forces.

Since these two maps couldn't be obtained, someone had to stick their head in the beehive and take a look.

"We need to draw a map, one to ten thousand, preferably one to five thousand." Zhao Zhiguo said.

Counterattacking the Heyun County area will never be as easy as before.

Gangcun is getting to know Zhao Zhiguo better and better, and if he learns well, Gangcun will definitely learn Zhao Zhiguo's defense methods.

Moreover, Gangcun has more heavy firepower in his hands. As long as Gangcun is generous with the Type 92 heavy machine gun and crooked handle, the little devils who are setting up defenses will have twice as much machine gun firepower at any time.

Although there are not many heavy artillery, Gangcun can mobilize groups of small-caliber artillery at any time.

The firepower was several times more powerful than that of Zhao Zhiguo's troops. Coupled with the complex defenses, the attacking troops would suffer more than ten or even twenty times more casualties.

One thousand Japs died, and the First Military Division suffered 20,000 casualties. These are not shocking figures, but human lives!

"Commander, let the soldiers of our special forces do reconnaissance. Maybe we can get inside the little devil."

Yao Pengju finally understood what Zhao Zhiguo was worried about.

In a war like this, perhaps only the commander can take a personal look at it before he can feel completely at ease.

Even the best scouts may not be able to clearly see the structure of a beehive unless someone takes the beehive apart.

The little devil would not be so kind as to dismantle the beehive.

"Let's arrange for ordinary scouts to take a look first." Zhao Zhiguo said, "Maybe we will also build a training ground."

If the Japanese army really hollowed out the underground of Heyun County, Zhao Zhiguo would have to build a simulated training ground to let the soldiers get used to the twists and turns underground.

"Let's go and take a look at the highway position first. Maybe the Third Brigade is going to attack Heyun County."

The defenders of the highway position have been active in underground fortifications for a long time, and they have become accustomed to this kind of life.

Along the way, Zhao Zhiguo didn't say much. He was worried about the future war.

They didn't know what Heyun County looked like now, but he could definitely imagine that Gangcun would not let them seize Heyun County easily.

The war horses were leisurely roaming, not galloping. The road along the way stretched, and wherever the eyes could see, there was already the defense area of ​​the First Military Division.
