    Guide front line. The temporary headquarters of the newly formed 100th Brigade of the 61st Army.

    It is said to be a headquarters, but in fact it is just a piece of rain sheet spread under a huge locust tree, without even a roof.

    "This condition can no longer be described as simple. It is simply a bit crude. It does not have the dignity that a brigade-level headquarters should have, let alone Li Guoyao's current status as lieutenant general.

    But Li Guoyao didn't care about this. As a special forces soldier, he had been in tropical rainforests and African grasslands, and even crawled in the deserts of Arabia. What kind of conditions had he never seen? It didn't matter.  .

    Li Guoyao looked at the dark night sky, then at Guide City, which was slightly brighter in the distance, and then asked in a deep voice: "What time is it?"

    Hou Zhifu, deputy commander of the new 100th Brigade, immediately took out his pocket watch, looked at it, and replied: "Military seat, it's already one o'clock in the morning!"

    "Well, it's time! Order the troops to assemble immediately and then enter the city!" Li Guoyao said in a deep voice.

    "Military seat, do you want to report to the summit? Otherwise, I'm afraid that the Guide garrison will not let our army enter the city!" Liang Chenghu said hurriedly.

    "The defenders?"

    Li Guoyao smiled coldly and said, "Do you think there are still defenders in Guide now?"

    "Military seat, what do you mean"

    Li Guoyao glanced at Hou Zhifu and Liang Chenghu, and then said calmly: "Why do you think I want Guoyang and Bozhou? I have enough to eat or have nothing to do. It doesn't matter, because I know that Guide will be a place sooner or later.  Something is going to happen!"

    Then Li Guoyao continued: "Guide is the southeastern gateway to the Lanfeng Battlefield, and it is also the only way for the Japanese army to reinforce the Doihara Division. However, the First Theater Zone has given such an important place to the Eighth Army to garrison. It is precisely  How careless!¡±

    "Careless? Military officer, as far as I know, the origin of the Eighth Army is not simple. This army was reorganized from the 166th Division and the Tax Police Corps of the Ministry of Finance. There were only two divisions in the reorganization area, but now it has three divisions under its jurisdiction.  Huang Jie, who was born in the first phase of Huangpu, was appointed as the commander. Moreover, after the establishment of the army, it participated in the Songhu Battle and the record was pretty good. There seems to be nothing wrong with letting the Eighth Army defend Guide in the first theater, right?" Liang Chenghu said with a frown.

    "The Eighth Army is nothing, but Huang Jie is not very good!" Li Guoyao said.

    "Jun Zuo, I have met Huang Jun Zuo before when I was in Nanjing. He seems to be very kind. It seems that he is not as unbearable as you say, Jun Zuo!"

    Liang Chenghu graduated from Huangpu, and was promoted to the position of colonel and deputy brigade commander at a young age. He was young and energetic, and he really looked down on Li Guoyao, a commander with a mixed background, so he didn't speak much.  You're very welcome.

    However, Li Guoyao didn't care and sneered: "That's because you have a problem with your vision. How can you judge whether a person can bear heavy responsibilities based on his or her discord?"

    Then, without waiting for Liang Chenghu to answer, Li Guoyao continued: "Huang Jie may have been a bit brave before he became famous. He once saved Chairman Chiang Kai-shek's life on the battlefield, but after becoming famous, this person drifted away, or became famous.  After that, he became afraid of death. In the Battle of Dangshan some time ago, the Eighth Army fled without a fight, and Huang Jie had already become a fleeing general."

    "But the commander of the First War Zone did not learn the lesson and continued to let him guard such an important place as Guide. Isn't this nonsense? You must know that this time the little devil is from the notorious 16th Division, and there are also soldiers from the Kwantung Army  They were transferred to form the third brigade. The total of these two armies is no less than 30,000 people. Does Huang Jie have the courage to fight with the Nakajima Division?"

    "Ah, Military Commander, do you mean that Huang Jie might still run away?" Hou Zhifu asked in surprise.

    ¡°It¡¯s not possible, it¡¯s that he has already run away!¡± Li Guoyao said shockingly.

    "Already ran away?"

    "Well, I have been ordering people to keep an eye on Guide, but early yesterday morning I heard news from the investigators that Huang Jie's main force left Guide City and drove towards Liuhe. At that time, I knew that that piece of shit was going to  Run, but since they have left a division in Guide, we dare not say more and can only risk taking you here, just in case." Li Guoyao said.

    "Military, it's really risky for you to do this. Once the Eighth Army just deploys its defenses on a routine basis, then we will be passive!" Hou Zhifu said.

    "What are you afraid of? Is it wrong for me to bring troops to reinforce Guide? Even if the Eighth Army did not escape, they are no match for the little devil. He has to thank us in the first theater." Li Guoyao said.

    "That's not what I mean by humble position. The people in the First War Zone will definitely not say anything."?But if we do this, we will offend Huang Jie and the entire Eighth Army to death!  "Hou Zhifu said.

    "Haha, Huang Jie is just a runaway general. How could I, Li Guoyao, ever take him seriously? Remember, we are all Chinese troops. We must judge by our military records. Everything else is false!"

    After saying these words, Li Guoyao looked at his watch, and then said: "Brothers are almost rested, order them to form a team and enter the city immediately!"

    "What if the Eighth Army doesn't let us enter the city?"

    "Then order the brothers to fight in. We are here to reinforce Guide. What do they want to do by not allowing reinforcements to enter the city!" Li Guoyao said domineeringly.

    "but"

    "There are not that many but, just give me the order. If anything happens, I, Li Guoyao, will be responsible for it!"

    "yes!"

    Following Li Guoyao's order, the main force of the newly-organized 100th Brigade, more than 15,000 people, set off and advanced towards Guide City a few kilometers away.

    In less than an hour, the troops arrived at Guide City. However, what shocked everyone was that the gate of the important town of Guide was open. There was not even a sentry at the gate, and there was no one in the defensive position outside the city.

    This situation shocked Hou Zhifu, Liang Chenghu and others. They didn't believe Li Guoyao before when he said that the Eighth Army was going to escape.

    After all, the Eighth Army is the elite of the national army, and the Battle of Lanfeng is the most important battle of the national army at this stage. Even if the Eighth Army does not contribute, it cannot hinder Chairman Chiang.

    But the current scene is right in front of them, they can¡¯t help but not believe it!

    However, before they could recover, they heard the rapid sound of horse hooves, and then saw a young man in casual clothes running in front of Li Guoyao, then got off the horse and reported: "Report to the military seat, Zhang Ge  The vanguard of the Japanese army was discovered in the direction of the town!"

    Everyone was suddenly shocked, and at the same time they secretly said that they were lucky to have arrived in time, otherwise Guide City would have fallen into the hands of the Japanese army.

    "How many people are there and what is the enemy's number?" Li Guoyao asked immediately.

    "There are less than five hundred people, all of them cavalry. Judging from my observations in the past few days, it should be a cavalry brigade formed by the Japanese army into the third brigade!"

    "Order: The cavalry regiment directly under the army will attack immediately and destroy the vanguard of the dog-hearted troops for me!"

    "yes!"

    Then Li Guoyao continued: "Order: The first regiment immediately garrisoned the south gate, the second regiment garrisoned the north gate, the third regiment was responsible for the east city wall, and prepared to reinforce the north and south gates at the same time, the fourth regiment was responsible for the security of the city, and notified the city door to door.  The people here must evacuate to Germany, and if they don¡¯t listen, they can be forcibly driven out of the city!¡±

    "Order: The artillery battalion directly under the army immediately builds artillery positions in the city. The third battalion of the air defense regiment builds fortifications with the city as the core. The fifth regiment rushes to the west city wall as the reserve force of the entire army, ready to reinforce the battle in all directions at any time!"

    After issuing the order, Li Guoyao shouted loudly and asked: "Have you heard clearly the tasks of each unit?"

    "Listen clearly!" all the officers said in unison.

    "Okay, execute the order!"

    "yes!"

    Following Li Guoyao's order, the main force of the newly formed 100th Brigade began to enter various positions before entering the city. At the same time, they overhauled the fortifications and were ready to face the invading Japanese army at any time.

    At the same time, Li Guoyao took everyone from the headquarters of the newly formed 100th Brigade into the city through the south gate and established a headquarters at the former Eighth Army Headquarters.

    After entering the city, Li Guoyao issued two orders again. He first ordered the fifth regiment to dispatch a battalion to immediately go to the city to collect firewood. The more the better.

    But at the same time, it is required that the collected firewood cannot be piled together, but must be scattered throughout the streets in the city, and it must be guaranteed to be available on every street.

    Secondly, Li Guoyao also ordered the Fourth Regiment to be quick when notifying the people in the city to evacuate. The whole process must not take more than four hours, because he knew that the Japs were coming soon, and time waited for no one!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
