Chapter 159: Hit the county town?
Wang Ping shook his head in surprise and replied: "Lao Zeng, don't be so confident first. This is a telegram that the investigation station just came. You can read the telegram first, and then tell me your thoughts after reading it!"
"The Japanese are reinforcements and strongholds! Even if the troops are reinforced and strongholds, they will not send puppet troops there. There is already a regiment of the Imperial Army. If there are too many Imperial Army, it will not only not increase the combat effectiveness of the defenders, but will also backfire and affect the Japanese army's operations!" Zeng Quan frowned and shouted after reading a few words.
"Don't rush to draw conclusions, keep reading!" Wang Ping continued to shake his head and said.
The telegram content was quickly finished, but Zeng Quan's brows not only did not relax, but instead frowned deeper and deeper.
Then he asked in confusion: "Captain, what is the Japanese doing? Reinforcements are just reinforcements. Why did you get to the Changjie stronghold and then return to the county town?"
"If you can't figure out the purpose of the Japanese, you will achieve it!" Wang Ping said astonishingly and analyzed.
"If we don't know that the news of our attack on the street stronghold has been known to the Japanese army, we will only treat this mobilization as an ordinary operation of the Japanese and puppet troops. If we attack the street stronghold, we will still attack the street stronghold. After all, the total strength of the Japanese and puppet troops in the stronghold has not increased, and there are still more than 1,500 people!"
"If it were my commander, I would definitely do this! Commander, is there something wrong with the regiment?" Zeng Quan said with urgency.
Wang Ping criticized without hesitation: "If Lao Zeng, you really think so, then I will tell you that as many people as you bring, you will sacrifice as many people as you want!"
"The total strength of the Japanese and puppet troops in the strongholds on the streets has not increased, but I can be sure that the Japanese have given us a good show of escape. As soon as one thousand imperial assistants entered and exited the strongholds on the streets, they replaced all the thousands of imperial assistants in the strongholds with elite Japanese soldiers!"
"How is that possible? The information has not been said, how do you know, Commander, I don't believe it!" Zeng Quan shook his head and denied it.
"I'll send a telegram to the reconnaissance platoon now: Platoon Commander Xu, ask Chen Hu, are the Imperial Army soldiers who leave the city generally shorter? When they return to the city, they are generally taller. Chen Hu and the others are the first time they are used as scouts and do not pay attention to many details. However, on the battlefield, it is often some details that determine the winning or losing of the battle!"
Chen Hu called back in less than ten minutes, not only affirming Wang Ping's problem, but also sending Wang Ping a telegram asking for punishment.
The shocked Zeng Quan couldn't help asking: "Captain, do you have any evidence? And it's so far from the battlefield. How did you see that the Japanese divine cicadas escaped and replaced all the Imperial Army with elite Japanese troops!"
"Analysis!" Wang Ping answered with a serious face.
"If you were the commander of the Japanese army, would you send troops to do something meaningless at such a critical moment before the war?"
"I don't know what you think, but I tell you that if I were the Japanese commander and knew that our Independent Regiment would do all our strength to attack the streets, we would definitely arrange the Independent Regiment as the grave of our Independent Regiment. This opportunity will wipe out our Independent Regiment from the streets."
"The most common and easiest way to wipe out us is to first consume a large amount of our troops through defense, and then use internal and external attacks to wipe out us all around the streets! The puppet army occupied most of the streets, which obviously could not do this. After all, our independent regiment was equipped with a large number of mortars and heavy machine guns, and even had two infantry cannons."
"But it would be possible to replace all the Imperial Army with Japanese devils."
"Blatantly reinforcements or replacements of puppet troops who went to the streets with Japanese soldiers will definitely not escape the eyes of our reconnaissance troops. Think about it, if our ultimate goal is to attack the strongholds on the streets, will we continue to attack after knowing this news!"
"We will definitely give up attacking the strongholds on the streets. Although the equipment of our independent regiment is better than that of the brothers, we can't fight the war of attrition!" Cheng Xiao replied with a frown.
"In this way, the Japanese army will lose the opportunity to destroy us in the street stronghold!" Wang Ping replied.
Zeng Quan quickly showed a sudden enlightenment expression, and then said, "I understand that the Japanese do not want to lose the opportunity to wipe out our entire street stronghold, but also want to increase their strength to the street stronghold. Then they thought of the way to escape from the golden cicada!"
"This analysis is true!" Cheng Xiao also showed a sudden enlightenment.
Wang Ping continued to analyze: "The strongest strength of the streets is just a difficulty that you have to face for Chief of Staff. There is another difficulty!"
"If the Japanese army wants to wipe us out at the Shangjie stronghold, they must send new reinforcements from the city to block our retreat. Otherwise, no matter how much troops the Japanese stockpile at the Shangjie stronghold, they will not wipe out us out!"
"So, when you arrive at the streets, you not only have to attack the street stronghold, but also use the smallest casualties to fight a regiment in front of more than a thousand elite Japanese troops. At the same time, you must seize the opportunity to fight and quickly withdraw from the battlefield before the Japanese army encircled the street stronghold!"
Although the task was arduous, Zeng Quan still replied with a serious face: "Please rest assured to ensure that the task is completed!"
Then he stared at Wang Ping and asked, "What about you? I'll attack the stronghold on the streets, what are you going to fight!"
"It's time to tell you now!" A mysterious smile flashed across Wang Ping's face again.
Then he gave a surprising answer: "Laiyuan City, I plan to raid Laiyuan City while the Japanese and puppet troops gathered all their main forces to the streets!"
"What? Raiding Laiyuan City? Commander, you are too brave and too risky, I don't agree!" Cheng Xiao, who was shocked, stood up and opposed.
"I don't agree, if I really want to raid Laiyuan City, I will lead the team!" Zeng Quan opposed it!
Wang Ping replied confidently: "I know, you must think that our two battalions cannot enter Laiyuan City through a raid!"
"Isn't it?" Cheng Xiao frowned and asked back!
"Even if the Japanese army draws another brigade to reinforce the back street stronghold, there are still two Japanese infantry brigades, one artillery brigade, and two regiments of the Imperial Army, with a total strength of nearly 5,000. Our two main battalions are 1,500, and they are not heavenly soldiers and generals. How could they enter Laiyuan City!"
"Captain, I firmly oppose the fight against Laiyuan, and there is no chance of winning at all!"
Zeng Quan also looked solemn and shook his head to express his objection.
Wang Ping did not compromise, but replied confidently: "Political Commissar, Chief of Staff, when did you see that I have suffered a loss on the battlefield!"
"If you are not sure, do you think I will take the two main battalions to take risks!"
"Laiyuan is not an ordinary county town, it is very large. Even if there are four or five thousand Japanese and puppet troops in the city, it is impossible for these Japanese and puppet troops to guard the city wall!"
"First, their brigade headquarters will definitely place a brigade."
"Then they are their ammunition depot and material depot, and two squadrons are bound to be missing."
"There are also people who need to defend other unimportant places. Even if the Japanese army is not used, the Imperial Army must be used. In the vast Laiyuan City, a regiment will definitely be indispensable!"
"In this way, the troops that the Japanese and puppet troops can use to defend the city walls will definitely not exceed 2,000, and there will not exceed 500 people at each city gate!"
