Chapter 254
After the meeting, Hu Yitong cut to the chase and said, "Commander Qiao, the money has already been given to you by our Sixteenth Division."
"I hope that when the time comes, you won't let us down!"
Captain Qiao immediately responded: "Director Hu, don't worry, Chief Lin thinks so highly of me, brother, how can I not try my best to do things."
"Liu Wanyi's order to let me stay in Hubei Province has come down. Bamudu, which I am in charge of, is just the most suitable place for troops to land."
"At that time, Commander Lin's team will land in Hubei Province from my defense area, and I will bring more than 1000 brothers under my command to rebel against the fucking Liu Wanyi together!"
When Hu Yitong heard this, he couldn't help but smile. He thought to himself, can you have more than 1000 people under your command?For those who are going to eat empty wages, it is not bad to have 600 people.
However, Hu Yitong would not say such face-slapping words. After discussing the login with Liu Wanyi, the two left the teahouse one after another.
For two consecutive days, Hu Yitong met with four regiment-level officers of the 34th Division one after another. Through the combat staff officer whose hometown is in Jiangdu County, the four regiment-level officers that Hu Yitong contacted were relatively unfavored, or had a relationship with Liu Wanyi. contradictory.
Therefore, it was very smooth to attract these people. They slapped the banknotes on the table, and then gave them a fire. These people immediately decided to take refuge in Lin Hongfei secretly. As for the relationship with Liu Wanyi, I'm sorry, that thing Nothing compares to the ocean.
What's more, there was no relationship between them and Liu Wanyi.
But Liu Wanyi didn't know about all of this. In the face of false information, he had already determined that the defense of the Jiangbei area along the river was empty, and Lin Hongfei's main force had been transferred to Lingxi and Lingzhong to suppress the local rebellion.
Now is the best time to make a move!
Liu Wanyi is very clear about the fact that soldiers are precious and fast.
Therefore, after leaving the troops of the three regiments to stay at the division headquarters and the surrounding key positions, Liu Wanyi divided the remaining troops into three batches.
The first batch consisted of a regiment with an actual number of 600 people. They landed on Orange Beach first, expelled the No. 16 Division's garrison here, and established a beachhead.
The second batch, consisting of three regiments with an actual number of 1700 people, was responsible for consolidating the beachhead and heading inland.
The third batch consisted of four regiments with a total of 2400 people. He personally led the team to land on Juzitan, and then concentrated on attacking Jiangdu County.
In order to reduce the landing time, Liu Wanyi has recruited all the boats available in the surrounding waters, including even small boats that can only accommodate 5 or 6 people.
Crossing the river in broad daylight may attract the attention of the other party, so that the other party will be aware of it and take precautions in advance.
According to the experience of the old fishermen on the river, the night after two days should be a cloudy day with poor light. Liu Wanyi decided to cross the river on this day.
Moreover, in order to prevent the river-crossing troops from shifting the crossing point due to sight, Liu Wanyi specially sent 30 elite soldiers to cross the river in advance, disguised as civilian husbands, and lay in ambush near Orange Beach.
When it's time to cross the river, they will light a bonfire near Juzitan as a token to guide the army across the Yangtze River!
This kind of preparation is not insufficient, Liu Wanyi is full of confidence in the victory of this battle.
However, the news of all this was spread to the Jiangbei area by several traitors.
Therefore, as soon as the 30 elite disguised as civilian husbands crossed the river, they were captured alive by the soldiers of the Sixteenth Division.
After learning about their plan to light a bonfire as a marker for crossing the river, Lin Hongfei temporarily revised the battle plan.
Liu Wanyi's original location for crossing the river was Orange Beach, and the location where the bonfire was lit was naturally also here.
Lin Hongfei deliberately changed the location of the bonfire to Longtou Beach not far from Orange Beach.
Unlike Orange Beach, where the ground is still firm during the wet season, Longtou Beach is completely muddy once it reaches the wet season, and the deepest part can sink more than one meter when you step on it.
On such a muddy ground, let alone running forward, just take a few steps, and your shoes will stick to you!
At this time, if the troops of the [-]th Division set up an ambush in advance and shoot at the enemy soldiers on Longtou Beach, these enemy soldiers confined by the mud would be living targets.
Let the 34th Division land on this ground, it must be said that there is no loss!
At the same time, a surprise attack force of 600 people took advantage of the darkness and landed from Bamudu in Hubei Province. The head of the garrison who had already been bought off personally led people to welcome them ashore.
However, in order to deceive others, the garrison commander of the 34th Division claimed that Liu Wanyi's division had brought reinforcements from other places in order to strengthen the rear defense.
It was late at night two days later. As the bonfire was lit on the other side, Liu Wanyi, who observed with a telescope, immediately showed an excited expression. The 30 elites lived up to their expectations and lit the bonfire on time.
Liu Wanyi immediately shouted to the first batch of soldiers crossing the river: "The brothers who crossed the river earlier have already lit the bonfire, everyone just needs to cross the river by the bonfire, and you will definitely not go astray!"
"Brothers, it's time for us to make a contribution to the commander in chief!"
"To defeat Jiangdu County, each person will be rewarded with 10 oceans. If you perform well, you will be rewarded."
"Brothers, get on the boat and rush for me!"
At this time, the first batch of soldiers crossing the river had already boarded the boats. Following Liu Wanyi's order, the boatmen swung their oars and sails, and wooden boats of different sizes sailed towards the opposite bank of the river.
On the wooden boat, although the soldiers of the 34th Division were a little nervous, they were more excited.
Every time there is a war, everyone can go to the homes of ordinary people to grab some things and money.
If you're lucky, you can snatch a few girls.
Everyone has long heard that Jiangdu County is a rich place, and the women there are also very beautiful, which makes everyone look forward to it.
The crossing of the river went smoothly. When the first boat was about to dock, the experienced boatman felt that the place where he landed seemed to be not right.
This doesn't seem to be Orange Beach, does it?
This is more like Longtou Beach!
The boatman wanted to raise an objection, but on second thought, the soldiers of the 34th Division asked him to sail the boat to the campfire.
I did so myself.
So, it doesn't matter if this place is Orange Beach or not!
Anyway, these people don't give money to collect their own boats, so why bother them!
Thinking of this, the boatman stopped at the place where the boat was about to run aground according to his previous experience, and then said to the soldiers on board:
"Military masters, we're here, you guys should get off the ship!"
Hearing this, the soldiers did not hesitate, one by one turned over and disembarked, and with the sound of plopping, the river water immediately reached their waists.
Then, stepping on the muddy bottom of the river, they approached step by step the beach where the bonfire was lit.
Behind them, more than 600 vanguard troops disembarked one by one, wading forward one by one.
After the ship unloaded them, it immediately turned its bow and returned to the opposite bank, preparing to pick up the second batch of troops.
