Chapter 64 Take the initiative to attack

After the misunderstanding was resolved, Zhou Cheng began to get back to the point.

"Comrades, with the Japanese's vengeful style, I will definitely not swallow my anger when I suffered such a great loss in our hands last time."

"What I expected is right: the Japanese and puppet troops who will attack our next force will definitely be unprecedentedly powerful, and will also bring heavy weapons such as mortars and heavy machine guns?"

"Information shows that the Japanese army stationed a garrison brigade and a regiment of the Imperial Army in Pingding County, reducing the Japanese and puppet troops that had been killed by us. There are three infantry brigades and two battalions of puppet troops in the county."

"If the troops that must be left behind in the county town are reduced, the Japanese army will dispatch up to two infantry squadrons, one battalion of Imperial Army, and a certain number of artillery and heavy machine gun troops."

"We are all our own people, and we are not weak. The guerrillas seem to be strong and well-equipped, but in fact they are strong outside and work on the inside. As long as the Japanese army brings mortars and heavy machine guns, we are not an opponent when we come to a reinforcement team."

"So in the next battle, the pressure the Japanese and puppet troops brought to us will definitely be unprecedented!"

Chen Zhengyu nodded thoughtfully: "Captain, I remember you said that as long as the Japanese brought mortars and heavy machine guns, we can no longer use the old methods to deal with them!"

"A few days have passed. Have you thought about how to repel the Japanese attack?"

The other four platoon leaders discovered the same thing as the New World, and looked at Zhou Cheng at the same time, with their eyes emitting light.

"Take an initiative!" Zhou Cheng did not hide it.

"We will definitely not be able to keep the base at our feet in this battle. Since that's the case, let's give up on our own initiative!"

"As soon as the sky dawn, all the guerrillas were dispatched and they spent one day evacuating the station."

"Didn't we seize two boxes of explosives when we attacked the Donghui Town stronghold last time? Use them all, and use them with grenades to prepare a few super-large thunders for the Japanese, and then bury them in the base to prepare a surprise."

"The second row stayed in the mountain, and Deputy Instructor Zhou personally conducted the command, using guerrilla warfare and sparrow warfare to lead the Japanese and puppet troops around the mountain and drag them down."

"Platform leader Chen commanded the three platoons and went to the outside of Pingding City to join the reconnaissance squad while it was dark, fired cold guns, raided high raids, and harassed the Japanese and puppet troops in the county. I drew two light machine guns and two grenade launchers from the fire platoon to increase the three platoons of firepower!"

"When taking action, you must pay attention: don't seek great achievements, but seek no mistakes. Use the minimum casualties to make the biggest noise. It is best to make the Japanese and puppet soldiers in Ding County panic, and they are full of soldiers, so they dare not send troops rashly."

"The other troops followed me to attack the Zhangzhuang Town stronghold, and attacked the east and west, forcing the Japanese who attacked Jinshan to retreat."

Tang Yufeng is an old Red Army soldier and has also served as a deputy instructor. His vision is wider than that of the platoon leaders in the conference room. He can see Zhou Cheng's tactics and purpose at a glance.

Looking at Zhou Cheng's eyes shining, he analyzed: "Captain, I understand what you think!"

"There are limited troops to pacify the left-behind forces, and with the third platoon bluffing outside the city, they will definitely not dare to send troops to reinforce after the news of the attack on the Zhangzhuang Town stronghold in the county town."

"We can only contact the front line to attack our troops and divide our troops back to Zhangzhuang Town, so that the pressure of the troops we stayed in the mountains will be reduced sharply, and we can also win a chance to defeat the Japanese individually!"

Several platoon leaders laughed one after another. The captain came up with a broken strategy, and the deputy instructor also thought it was OK, so there was definitely no problem.

Just as he was about to take the order, Tang Yufeng suddenly changed his subject: "But there is also the most critical question. Captain, can you hurt the Japanese and puppet troops in the Zhangzhuang Town stronghold, make them feel the pressure and force them to ask for help from the county town."

The smiles on the faces of several platoon leaders disappeared and they became serious again.

Tang Yufeng had just arrived at the guerrillas and did not know the strength of the Japanese and puppet troops in Zhangzhuang Town.

Several platoon leaders knew that the Zhangzhuang Town stronghold was exactly the same as the Donghui Town stronghold that the guerrillas once captured, with a reinforcement squad and a company of the puppet army.

The troops rely on the strong fortifications and artillery towers of the strongholds to defend. Under normal circumstances, the Eighth Route Army of the two companies could not chew this hard bone.

The guerrillas did not have the weapons to attack, and the captain took at most half of the company, and he really didn't have the chance to defeat the stronghold garrison to the point of being damaged.

If something unexpected happens, the Japanese and puppet troops may be killed and fought back, and finally the wife will be compensated and the army will be defeated.

They didn't express their inner thoughts, but just looked at Zhou Cheng with a worried look on their faces.

The captain is much better than them, and the captain can definitely think of what they can think of.

But the expression on the captain's face was not affected. He still looked confident and replied in front of everyone's eyes: "How to fight is my business. At most, three days, you will definitely hurt the Japanese and puppet troops in the Zhangzhuang Town stronghold and force them to ask for help from the county town."

"Old Tang, you will delay the Japanese and puppet troops' combat plan for three days. Once the time comes, the Japanese will definitely withdraw from Jinshan, and then you will be under much less pressure."

"The troops will start operations tomorrow, transferring the remaining materials, weapons and ammunition from the garrison during the day, and splitting their troops after dark, each killing to their respective targets."

At the command center of the Japanese garrison brigade in the pacification county, the intelligence staff stood in front of Major Fujita with a serious face and reported to him what he had gained in the past few days.

"Sir, I dare to use my life to guarantee the guerrillas in Donghui Town, hiding in Jinshan, have no more than two hundred."

"The last time Captain Futian attacked the guerrillas, no other Eighth Route Army participated in the battle. The guerrillas rely on their own strength to defeat the Imperial Army's attack!"

No matter how brave the intelligence consultant is, he dare not tamper with or lie about military information.

So Major Fujita believed it on the spot, his fist was clattering because of his anger.

If the intelligence consultant said it is true, it proves that the enemy situation reported to him after returning to the county town is false, and he deliberately exaggerates his opponent in order to shirk responsibility.

Fukuda is his confidant. As a commander, he was fooled by his confidant and it was hard not to get angry.

At this moment, he had only one idea: to immediately eliminate the guerrillas in Donghui Town, wash away the shame, and then cause trouble for Futian.

"Bang..." punched the table and asked with a calm face: "Is there any other information?"

"I want to know how the guerrillas defeated Captain Fukutan with more than one hundred people."

"As far as I know, this guerrilla team is almost all composed of new recruits. Compared with the Imperial Army, it is not even a mob and has no combat power!"

The intelligence officer quickly replied: "Sir, although the guerrillas do not have foreign aid, their composition is not as simple as we imagined."

"In addition to the recruits, the guerrillas also recruited a large number of prisoners to supplement the troops!"

"Imperial Army!" The intelligence counselor understood as soon as he mentioned Fujita, his eyes quickly widened and stared at his subordinates and asked.

"Hi!" The intelligence consultant nodded.

"After some soldiers of the Imperial Army were captured, they were mobilized to join the guerrillas and in turn fought against the Imperial Army."

"These Imperial Army have been trained, and many of them have also been on the battlefield, fought face to face with the Imperial Army, and have rich combat experience. It is precisely because of their joining that the Futian Squadron mistakenly thought that the guerrillas had come to reinforce and ended up suffering a great loss on the battlefield."

"In addition, the reason why the last attacking imperial army was defeated was that the attacking troops did not carry heavy weapons."

"The guerrillas used terrain, logs, and stones to build a large number of blocking positions and machine gun castles on the road that the Imperial Army must pass. The grenade launchers carried by the offensive troops could not destroy them, so they could only be beaten passively..."

"Several factors are all summarized together, which eventually led to Captain Fukutan's defeat and return!"

After hearing the report, Major Fujita tightened his fists, gritted his teeth and cursed: "The Imperial Army... a group of guys who have failed to do anything more than to make trouble, I am so disappointed!"
