After Liu Hong led the independent regiment to occupy Zhangbei County, he did not continue to approach in the direction of Zhangjiakou, but temporarily stopped in Zhangbei County and took a two-day break.

Zhang Zhicheng was very puzzled by this, and asked Liu Hong: "Old Liu, let's attack Zhangbei, not to approach Zhangjiakou, and then forced the small Japanese to subtract from the front line of Tianzhen to reinforcements?"

“Why did you stop in the North?”

Liu Hong smiled and explained: "After a long march, the troops were tired and tired, so that the soldiers rested for two days, but also to restore the physical strength of the soldiers of the First World War and restore the combat effectiveness of the troops."

Zhang Zhicheng nodded and said, “I can understand this, but what should we do next?”

“Listening to what you mean, I don’t want to go to the house?”

Liu Hong smiled and said, "Into the mouth of the family is the established line of policy, this will not change."

"It's just how to fight this battle, or chooses the road to Zhangjiakou, but it has to be well planned."

Zhang Zhicheng smiled and said, "You are all about to fool me."

"There are several roads to Zhangjiakou, the key is to see how we go."Liu Hong said with a smile.

Zhang Zhicheng nodded and said, “In addition to the road leading to Zhangjiakou, there is also a small road that can pass through Zhangjiakou, and it is also suitable for large troops.”

Liu Hong waved his hand and said, "We can't go on these two roads you said."

“First of all, the road, which is all mountainous, is mountainous, and according to our investigation, the little devils have arranged layers of blocking positions along the way to prevent us from attacking the open mouth.”

“Of course, these small units are not yet in sight, but they will certainly delay a lot of time, and they will also expose our intentions and give the little devil a chance.”

“Go the way.”Zhang Zhicheng said hurriedly.

Liu Hong waved his hand and said, “This path can indeed lead straight to Zhangjiakou, can we think, can’t the little devil think?”

"We suddenly captured Zhangbei, Yigang village Ningji shrewd, certainly has thought of our intention."

"At this time, Gangcun Ningzi must be planning how to eliminate us!"Do you think he would think we’d go down the road?”

Wu Feng nodded and said, "This path is also a rugged mountain road, the terrain is complex, if the little Japanese ambush here in advance, we do not know the head of the collision, the consequences are unimaginable."

Liu Hong smiled and nodded and said, "This is what I am most worried about, Gangcun Ningji this old Japanese cunning very, and he must not have any sloppy care, our Eighth Route Army in his hand to eat, but a lot."

Zhang Zhicheng frowned and said, "If we say so, we have no way to go, it is difficult to stay in Zhangbei."

“People are alive, how can they be trapped in this small county?”

Liu Hong smiled and said, "I have sent a special team before, went to Zhangjiakou to inquire about the news, the main direction of exploration, is this road and this path."

“Let’s see how the little boy reacts, and then we’ll do it.”

As he spoke, a staff officer hurried over, stood upright, raised his hand to a military salute, and shouted, "Report chief, special team urgent."

Liu Hong got up and took the telegram, looked at it carefully, and said with a sneer: “Surely!”

Then handed the telegram to Zhang Zhicheng next to him, and Wu Feng also came to look at the telegram.

"Moganshan, a lot of little Japanese found near the mouth of the new river!"

“So the little boy set up an ambush on the path!”

Liu Hong nodded and said, “If we take the path, the new estuary and the Moganshan are the only way.”

"Now that there are big strands of Japanese people here, it shows that the little Japanese want to stop us here."

Zhang Zhicheng couldn't help but scold: "This dog's village is also really his mother's insidious."

Liu Hong said with a sneer: "The old guy in Gangcun Ningji is really powerful, but he ignores a little, so no matter how he calculates, his plot is impossible to succeed."

“Which point?”

“This is the country!”

Liu Hong said seriously: "All the people living here are the people of the country, we have a mass base, and the people are helping us."

“How can the little Japanese suddenly transfer so many troops to Moganshan and the mouth of the New River, and how can it be completely hidden.”

"If we don't send someone to investigate, as long as we go through the investigation, how to hide the little Japanese, it is impossible to be seamless, and we will certainly be found."

"This time, the special team, also with the help of the local villagers, learned of the existence of this small Japanese in advance, so as to find out the news."

Zhang Zhicheng nodded and said: "The support of the masses is the biggest advantage of our Eighth Route Army, and it is precisely because of this advantage that we can persist for so long under absolute disadvantage, and continue to grow and develop."

Wu Feng frowned and said, "In this way, we can't go on the road and this path, so we can't do the next step."

Liu Hong smiled and said, "As the saying goes, there is no way to heaven."

“Take the map!”

A staff officer quickly took a map and spread it out on the table.

Liu Hong looked at the map and smiled and said, "Since the road directly to Zhangjiakou has been blocked by the little devil, then we will not go directly to Zhangjiakou."

“How do you get there?”

“The detour?”

“Where to go!”

Liu Hong stretched out a finger and nodded on the map and said, “Go around here!”

"Let's start by confusing the little devils, so that they can't understand our specific thoughts, and only then can we accidentally hit the little devil."

“Church?”Zhang Zhicheng frowned and said.

“Yes!It's worship!"Liu Hong nodded his head and said.

"We do not go directly to Zhangjiakou, directly to Chongli, as long as we come to Chongli, then we can attack Zhangjiakou from Chongli, we can also continue to advance in the direction of Peking, threatening the Japanese from Peking to Zhangjiakou this section of the supply line."

“Isn’t the village smart?He can certainly see this, and it is impossible to turn a blind eye to us, and then he will have to continue to mobilize his forces and beware of us.”

“As long as we can move the little Japanese’s strength, we have a chance.”Anyway, our purpose is also to contain the little Japanese, as long as the small Japanese, our task is completed."

"And to worship, there is another purpose."

“What purpose?”14
