The commander was almost moved by the chief of staff, but hesitated at the last moment: "What if we underestimate the opponent's strength again?"

"Before confirming that the two reinforcements sent by Jingxing County were completely wiped out, we all did not believe that the Eighth Route Army had the strength to destroy thousands of imperial troops in one battle, but they did it!"

"Even if the Eighth Route Army really lost more than 5,000 people in the battle in the first half of the night, can you guarantee that the Eighth Route Army that is active in the mining area is really only more than 10,000? What if the Eighth Route Army attacked us tonight, the casualties of more than 5,000 people did not make them hurt. The remaining troops are fully capable of continuing to ambush the reinforcements we sent from the Shimen!"

The Chief of Staff was very confident in his judgment and looked at the commander and answered confidently: "I think there are absolutely no 20,000 Eighth Route Army active in the mining area!"

"As far as I know, the Eighth Route Army that operates in Hebei area has only 40,000 to 50,000 people. They are scattered in several bases. Under the isolation of the blockade line and a large number of strongholds, the Eighth Route Army that operates in other bases has no chance to cross the blockade line and enter the mining area."

"Only the Eighth Route Army that is active around the mining area can enter the mining area without knowing it. The Eighth Route Army in these places has no more than 15,000 people. If a part of the left-behind troops are reduced, they will draw up to 10,000 people to deal with us!"

"Reduce the losses in the first half of the night, the Eighth Route Army will have at most 5,000 people."

"More than 1,000 people were divided to continue attacking the coal mine, and another two or three thousand were divided to attack Jingxing coal mine, and at most one thousand people were responsible for attacking the aid."

"These Eighth Route Army are very clear about the situation of our garrisons scattered around the country. Even we ourselves think that we should not send troops to reinforce Jingxing County and coal mines. They will definitely think so, and then they dare to attack Jingxing County so unscrupulously."

"If we can do the opposite and take the risk of reinforcement of Jingxing Coal Mine and Jingxing County, we can not only protect these two places, but also turn defeat into victory, and take advantage of this opportunity to severely damage the Eighth Route Army around the mining area!"

Hearing this, the hesitant expression on the commander's face seemed to disappear.

The deputy chief of staff felt a thrill. He didn't expect that the crisis he had carefully prepared for the chief of staff would be resolved by him.

Then a look of fear appeared on his face.

The Chief of Staff looked at him with a very fierce look, obviously being angry with his ungratefulness.

Now that he has relieved the crisis he is facing, he can definitely continue to hold the position of Chief of Staff in the future.

As his deputy, he has offended him to death. If he does not ease the relationship as soon as possible, it will definitely be very difficult in the future, and he may even be excluded from the headquarters.

In a flash, the deputy chief of staff had figured out his dangerous situation and decided to ease the relationship between him and the chief of staff at all costs.

Seeing that the commander was moved by the Chief of Staff, he did not immediately support his remarks, but frowned and fell into deep thought. He probably had many concerns in his heart.

The Deputy Chief of Staff decided to add another fire to help the Chief of Staff survive the current crisis as a breakthrough to ease his relationship with the Chief of Staff.

He quickly continued: "Commander, I think the Chief of Staff's analysis just now is very reasonable!"

"There are indeed a large number of Eighth Route Army troops distributed in Hebei, but they were divided into several bases by our blockade line and strongholds, and they were far away from Jingxing mining area, so they had no chance to enter the mining area at all!"

"There are only three Eighth Route Army bases in the surrounding area that have the conditions to transfer troops into the mining area. Their troops are very limited, so they can only draw 10,000 people to participate in the war!"

The commander still did not respond immediately, but his eyes had shifted to the sand table, and he analyzed the Chief of Staff's judgment just now in his mind.

The Chief of Staff did not seem to appreciate the relief of the Deputy Chief of Staff.

Looking at the hesitant commander, he continued to analyze: "Sir, you are right just now. In order to ensure the safety of Shimen, we can only draw two infantry brigades and two regiments of the Imperial Army to reinforce the coal mines and county towns, but you seem to have ignored the two troops!"

"All existing garrisons in Shimen, in addition to conventional infantry and artillery, there is also a chariot squadron and two cavalry squadrons!"

"Instead of leaving them in the city and being unable to exert their strong combat power, it is better to let them reinforce coal mines and county towns and show their power in the field battlefield."

"If there are chariot squadrons and cavalry units to reinforce the battlefield, even if the Eighth Route Army really sends troops to ambush them, they can easily break through with the powerful assault capabilities of chariots and cavalry!"

Hearing this, the commander's only concern was gone and ordered on the spot: "Since everyone supports the Chief of Staff's opinion, then we will now mobilize troops to reinforce the county town and coal mines!"

"The Eighth Route Army Young Master attacking the coal mines, and a regiment of the Imperial Army, half an infantry brigade, and two cavalry squadrons killed them, and used the fastest speed to fight to the battlefield and launch an attack from the back of the Eighth Route Army."

"A half infantry brigade, a regiment of Imperial Army, half baggage brigade, and chariot squadron were dispatched to reinforce Jingxing Xiao Chen."

"I will send another telephone number to the strongholds and garrisons around Jingxing County, so that they can also divide some of their troops to reinforce Jingxing County. I will form a siege against the Eighth Route Army attacking Jingxing County."

"We finally encountered an opportunity to fight them head-on, and we must fight a good battle with them!"

"In addition, according to our analysis just now, the Eighth Route Army that attacked the coal mines and Jingxing County all came from several bases around the mining area. Since the main force of the Eighth Route Army who were active in these places came to the mining area, their base must have no troops!"

"Chief of Staff, you immediately formulate a sweeping plan, and give me approval in three hours, and then start to mobilize troops to start sweeping these bases tomorrow morning. It would be best if you can take the opportunity to turn these bases into an Imperial Army-occupied area!"

This is where the Chief of Staff admires the commander in particular.

Others look forward one step, and the commander look forward three steps.

When everyone in the headquarters was considering how to protect Jingxing coal mines and county towns, the division commander had already considered that the Eighth Route Army base was empty and whether the Imperial Army could take advantage of the situation to further expand the results of the battle.

So as soon as the commander finished speaking, he was full of admiration and obedience: "I will arrange it now and I will ensure that you will not disappoint you."

A regiment of Eighth Route Army was still lurking in a ravine between Jingxing County and Jingxing Coal Mine. The regiment commander hid on the high ground next to the ravine, and his eyes never left the mountain pass, and his expression was very anxious.

The company heading to the coal mine to receive weapons and ammunition has set out for almost four hours, and no news has been heard back.

More than two hours ago, I received information that Jingxing County sent more than 5,000 Japanese soldiers to reinforce Jingxing coal mines. The location of the weapons that the superiors agreed to receive with him was exactly the only way to the reinforcement troops. If two troops collided, the troops sent were not even enough to stuff the Japanese teeth.

"It seems that someone is coming from Yamaguchi!" The political commissar who was also staring at Yamaguchi suddenly reminded.

The regiment commander looked up and saw several figures running towards him hurriedly, and the worried expression on his face became stronger: "There are only three people on the other side, so it should not be the Commander Wang and the others!"

"Can it be the correspondent sent back by Company Commander Wang?" The political commissar frowned and analyzed.

After hearing this, the commander's heart skipped a beat. The sadness on his face not only did not relieve it, but his brows also frowned.

The attacking troops led by Company Commander Wang had a total of 200 people. If everything went well, the troops would definitely come back with the weapons and equipment delivered by their superiors.

If those figures were really correspondents sent by Company Commander Wang, it means that Company Commander Wang and others had an accident outside and had no choice but to send correspondents back to report the situation.

His face suddenly sank, and he complained to himself: "I just said there is no free lunch in the world! How could we get a large amount of weapons and ammunition for no reason without doing anything... Do you think something is wrong now?"

"Eighty-mostly, Company Commander Wang and his team had an accident outside, and the main force could not come back. Then they hurriedly sent a correspondent back to report the situation and asked the main force of the regiment to send troops to pick them up!"

The political commissar did not answer the leader's words.

The team leader has a bad temper and does whatever he wants.

He can't do it. As the political commissar of the regiment, he must pay attention to the bad impact his words and deeds have on the troops.

Moreover, the political commissar trusts his superiors very much. Since he dares to send someone to receive weapons and ammunition, it proves that his superiors have taken into account the possible problems and will never let the troops take risks.

Looking at the complaining team leader, he reminded decisively: "Captain, don't talk nonsense. Those figures may not be sent by Company Commander Wang, and all the comrades are watching!"

"Hello, Chief..." Within five minutes, several figures were brought over.

The regiment commander who was complaining just now was stunned because these people were really not the correspondents sent by Company Commander Wang.

"Xiao Wang, you are not by the leader's side, why are you here? Is the superior who has a new task for us?" The political commissar was very happy. He didn't expect that his casual words were really right: the few figures who rushed over were actually correspondents around the leader, so he asked quickly.

The correspondent obviously rushed a lot of roads, his face was red from exhaustion, and he reported while gasping: "The Chief asked you to move to the direction of Jingxing County immediately, block all the Japanese and puppet army reinforcements that may appear north of Jingxing County, and cooperate with the National Rescue Army to attack Jingxing County!"

"This order is urgent and the troops set off when they receive the order. A Japanese and puppet army must not allow a reinforcement of Jingxing County!"

The regiment commander ordered the guards around him as soon as he heard this: "Notify the troops to assemble immediately and set off in ten minutes!"

"Display the map immediately. Although the superiors gave us a dead order, we can't just make random calls!"

The gathering guards immediately split into two, some went to convey the assembly order, and some spread out the map!

The regiment commander frowned and analyzed: "There are three county towns and strongholds in the direction of our defense that can send troops to reinforce Jingxing County. The total strength of the reinforcements ranges from 300 to 800!"

"With our regiment's current strength, it is definitely no problem to ambush the reinforcements of 300 people. The remaining two reinforcements will not be able to eat them. They can only use guerrilla warfare and dedication to block them layer by layer."

The political commissar nodded while looking at the map: "I agree that if the three reinforcements go their own way, we will first concentrate our forces to ambush the reinforcements of 300 people, and then block the other two reinforcements!"

The group leader and political commissar have unified their ideas, so it will be easier to do next.

Just as the two of them were about to collect the map and set off, a company commander who was guarding the outside suddenly ran over, and his whole body was like eating honey, with a smile on his face.

"The regiment commander, political commissar, good news, Company Commander Wang and others have returned and brought back a lot of weapons and ammunition, including heavy machine guns and mortars!"

"Where are they? Take me over immediately!" The commander became excited when he heard this.

Less than two minutes after running, I saw Commander Wang carrying a crooked handle, carrying three 38-four-covered covers on his back, and running towards him with a happy look on his face.

When he saw the leader, he reported with an excited look on his face: "Captain, political commissar, we are rich!"

"The National Salvation Army is so polite. After confirming our identity, without saying a word, we directly allocated four mortars, four heavy machine guns, ten crooked handles, two hundred 38 large covers, fifty boxes of bullets and shells, and also set up a battlefield for us to clean up. All the captured bullets and grenades belong to us!"

"You haven't seen it. The corpses of Japanese devils are everywhere on the several kilometers of roads. I have fought for such a long time and have never seen so many corpses of Japanese devils at once!"

"The battlefield we are responsible for is distributed with more than 300 Japanese corpses, and all the ammunition they carry with us was seized!"

"Reduce the weapons and ammunition that the National Salvation Army directly allocated to us. We also seized 259 armed belts, all of which were covered with bullet boxes. Almost every armed belt had one hundred bullets, and there were at least 25,000 bullets in total!"

"In addition, more than 500 grenades were collected from the Japanese corpses!"

The team leader was stunned on the spot and was stunned for a while before he realized: "I've got rich, our team has really got rich!"

"Political Commissar, the heavy machine gun platoon and mortar platoon we formed before were empty. Now that the National Salvation Army supports us, we can not only fill in the missing equipment of the two platoons, but also take the opportunity to expand them into firepower, and it is no problem even if we have no problem!"

The political commissar was also very excited, but he had to remain calm when the enemy was facing him.

After taking several deep breaths, he replied: "It must be too late to expand the firepower company!"

"The troops may go to the battlefield to fight the Japanese at any time. We must use the fastest equipment brought back by Company Commander Wang to supplement the troops, so that they can form combat effectiveness and exert their power in the next battle!"

"In this case, we can not only ambush the reinforcements of more than 300 Japanese and puppet troops, but maybe we can also kill the reinforcements of more than 500 of them! "

"It will definitely work!" The leader answered very confidently.

"In addition to our family's assets, the entire regiment has a total of five heavy machine guns, four mortars, six grenade launchers, 22 light machine guns, and more than nine hundred rifles. If even more than five hundred Japanese and puppet troops can't be killed, I, the regiment commander, don't be the leader!"

"Immediately add four mortars and supporting shells to supplement the artillery platoons, and the six grenade launchers replaced are equipped with the first and second battalions. All ten erected slugs are equipped with the first and second battalions, and then give them one battalion fifty 38 large covers, and the remaining 100 38 large covers are supplemented with the third battalion!"

"The bullets of all riflesmen in the regiment have been supplemented to twenty rounds, light machine guns have been supplemented to three hundred rounds, heavy machine guns have been supplemented to six hundred rounds, and each soldier is given two grenades and grenades, and then he will teach you a lesson in reinforcement of the Japanese and puppet troops in Jingxing County!"
