The equipment level of the Eighth Route Army itself is relatively poor, and the number of military personnel has expanded rapidly, which has led to the poor military quality and equipment level of the troops being unable to look directly.

Even soldiers like He Jicheng who have been staying on the second and third lines think that the level of the Third Battalion of the New Second Regiment is too poor, and you can imagine how many times they have.

Zhang Yunfei could still understand He Jicheng's idea. When their independent regiment cooperated with the main regiment's actions, the main regiment regarded them as first-level units of the battalion and company, and they were not at ease, so they even dispatched some troops to cooperate with them in combat.

He Jicheng now has this mentality. Although he has always dared to fight and fight, he also knows that in the face of hot weapons, not all battles can be carried by being tenacious and not afraid of sacrifice.

Zhang Yunfei had the opposite opinion on this. Although the third battalion of the New Second Regiment was not very powerful, they were all defeated by the troops formed by guerrillas in the Qingling Pingchuan area. Now their defense zone is also in this area, and they are authentic local snakes.

The land is much more familiar to them, which is actually an advantage, but they just didn't realize it, or they were a little confused. They used to be guerrillas, and there was nothing to say about fighting guerrillas.

Now that the team has expanded and has become a regular Eighth Route Army, I am a little at a loss.

In the past, if we could fight against the Japanese and puppet troops, we only rely on flexible and changeable tactics. Now that there are more people, we naturally don’t have that flexibility.

The Japanese and puppet troops' reaction ability is not slow. They have not improved in essence, and they are just guerrillas gathered together. Instead, they lose their biggest advantage, and their target will naturally become the best target. It would be strange if they are not chased by the Japanese and puppet troops.

In fact, it’s just a matter of mentality. Don’t regard them as the main force, they don’t treat themselves as the main force. They used to fight guerrillas, but now they will do whatever they want. Just adapt and adjust.

After making up his mind, Zhang Yunfei invited two people from the Third Battalion of the New Second Regiment, dragged them to the front of the map, pointed to the map and said: "Our plan is to start from the outer periphery of Honglingkou, cut off their echo contact with the outside world, and take down the Xingzhuang stronghold first."

"That Battalion Commander Zhang, our combat target is not Xingzhuang. Is it a bit... a bit..." As soon as he finished speaking, Battalion Commander Wang expressed his own opinion.

He almost said that such a plan was a bit too nonsense, could the superior's combat plan be changed so randomly, but in the end, Battalion Commander Wang still closed.

"Doesn't you feel a little bit missed? I don't think it's all. Xingzhuang is actually a link in the Honglingkou defense system, and an important part of it."

Zhang Yunfei had long expected Battalion Commander Wang's opposition, and it would be strange if they didn't jump out and raised their objections.

Zhang Yunfei once again brought out the argument he persuaded He Jicheng. In short, the main theme was that Honglingkou and Xingzhuang could not be viewed separately.

Instead, they are regarded as a whole defense system, so that they have not tampered with the combat plan.

Although he gave these stubborn people a reason to accept it, his explanation was not really nonsense and deceived people. These two strongholds were originally echoing each other. From a global perspective, they could indeed be regarded as a whole.

"I mean, our battalion is responsible for fighting in the direction of Xingzhuang, including blocking and attacking, and we are responsible for it ourselves, but we need your cooperation."

"It is mainly responsible for the vigilance of our wings, and serves as our reserve force, and launches a restrained attack on Xingzhuang with a unit of force."

He Jicheng didn't trust their combat effectiveness very much, and Zhang Yunfei also did not expect much from their combat effectiveness. If nothing unexpected happened in this battle, they would only do some auxiliary battles.

"As long as you can participate in this battle, I guarantee that most of the weapons and ammunition seized in this battle will be allocated to you, and our battalion will only replenish the loss and allocate a small part."

"This place is your territory, and your information is more informative than ours. You have provided the specific situation of Xingzhuang and the arrangement of the enemy at present. Remember, this battle is also not easy, and I want detailed information."

"I heard that Xingzhuang has stationed a lot of puppet troops, and they are the main source of our equipment. As long as you destroy them and seize the weapons in their hands, your difficulties can be solved."

The principles of the Eighth Route cadres were stronger than the other and had a firm will. Although Zhang Yunfei had sufficient reasons, he would definitely convince them, so he could still lure them together.

This set has been practically used and tested, and Qi Dajiu has no resistance to this set.

The two new second regiment, the Third Battalion, were obviously no exception, and their eyes immediately shone.

The commanders and fighters at all levels of the Eighth Route Army, weapons and supplies, are all sensitive words. When you hear these, you will be very excited.

At present, they are troubled by weapons and equipment. If there are not enough weapons and equipment, it is useless to have personnel alone.

This is a vicious cycle for them. Without enough weapons and ammunition, they do not have the ability to annihilate the enemy. Without annihilation of the enemy, they cannot capture it. Therefore, they can only consume and have no income, and their strength can only become weaker and weaker.

They do not have the ability to break their own difficulties. Zhang Yunfei threw out such a big bait, and they do not even have the qualification to resist.

Although Zhang Yunfei was not very concerned about their combat effectiveness, this was the strength of a battalion. No matter how poor the combat effectiveness was, it was better than a company.

"Battlefield Commander Zhang, you are sure to kill the village. Do you know where there are at least 100 Japanese soldiers and more than 200 puppet troops stationed. Where is our small force attacking? "Battlefield Commander Wang immediately couldn't hold back his anger.

Of course he knew that Xingzhuang was just a piece of fat, and the key was to have a good tooth. Anyway, with the strength of their camp, he could only go around.

Now, their troops are only two battalions. Although they are still small in number, they have the possibility of attacking, and they are not without any chance of winning.

Battalion Commander Wang also began to think about it: "No need to say more about the combat effectiveness of the Japanese garrison stationed in Xingzhuang. Even the puppet army is different from the puppet army in other places. They are the most hard-core traitor troops and the Japanese have worked hard to form them."

"Although there are not many troops, only about 200 people, all of them are hard-core traitors, and their equipment is definitely the only one among the surrounding puppet troops. They are all Japanese weapons. They are not only Japanese weapons, but also equipped with ninety-two heavy machine guns, three crooked light machine guns, two grenade launchers, and all rifles are 38 large covers."

This battalion commander Wang is worthy of being a local tyrant, and he is very familiar with this. He probably hasn't been thinking about the Xingzhuang stronghold for a day or two, but their battalion is not strong enough, otherwise he would have rushed forward long ago.
