Not retreating is also what Wang Ping thinks.

Wang Ping did not expect that Yang Huping, who never likes to talk much, also had this idea.

He immediately became interested and stared at Yang Huping and asked: "Tell me what you think?"

"Yes, the leader!" Yang Huping hesitated for a moment and began to answer.

"A few months ago, our new regiment was severely damaged by the Japanese and was forced to leave the station and retreat into the mountains. When I left, I saw the desperate and helpless eyes of the people looking at us with my own eyes."

"At that time, I didn't even dare to raise my head, so I could only lower my head and retreat."

"Just just built the base and got together with the people. Then they were defeated by the Japanese, left behind and forced to retreat!"

"It's certain that after we left, these ordinary people were more or less punished by the Japanese and fell into dire straits again."

"Now, our new group has come out again. Although there is no base and no decision to stay. However, one victory after another still gives the people who see us a glimmer of hope."

"In this case, if they were told that our Eighth Route Army once again ran away when the main force of the Japanese came, this hope would definitely turn into disappointment again."

"In addition to the disappointment and helplessness that we left them behind when we left them to retreat last time, I was worried that this disappointment might turn into despair, and we will never believe in our Eighth Route Army in the future!"

Wang Ping's eyes lit up and he said with great joy: "Well said!"

"We Eighth Route Army is a team to fight the Japanese, and there is nothing wrong with this. But don't forget the foundation of our Eighth Route Army. In addition to fighting the Japanese, we are also the soldiers of the people and the team of the people. Without the support of the people, we will not survive at all under the heavy encirclement of the Japanese and puppet troops!"

"So, this time, we can no longer let the people down!"

Xiong Changhe first showed a thoughtful expression, and then said firmly.

"I agree to stay and not leave. At worst, I can fight against the Japanese who came to reinforce!"

"I have seen Battalion Commander Yang say that in the battle. Without us, the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese, the puppet army, and those who are maintaining the association, they are all trying their best to exploit the people. Many people have to work hard for the Japanese, or even sell their children and daughters because of their exploitation!"

"When I attacked the Zhangcun stronghold, I rescued several women from the stronghold. They were captured by the Japanese and puppet troops in various villages, as if they wanted to sell them to brothels to pay off their debts with meat. Fortunately, they would have been finished when they met us."

"After we were rescued, they didn't say much! But, from their eyes, I can see that they hope we stay and will not leave!"

Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong frowned all the time.

As the chief of staff, what he needs to consider the most is how the troops survive and how to win battles.

Even if he didn't go to the battlefield in person, he knew that for the New Orleans, staying would be better than retreating.

But the question is, how can the new group stay?

The Japanese and puppet troops attacked heavily and chose to stay rashly. Maybe not only did they fail to protect the people, but they would also be destroyed!

He frowned and reminded: "But, the leader, it is undeniable that our opponents are too strong. We are resting in the town now. It is certain that as long as they rest, they will definitely pounce on us like a hungry wolf!"

"Then kill them!" Wang Ping said astonishingly.

All of them looked at Wang Ping with a stunned expression.

Wang Ping did not hide it, and directly expressed his thoughts in his heart like analyzing the beans.

"Our three troops emerged one after another, all of them pretended to be the main force, which made the net of heaven and earth prepared by Matsui for us outside the mountain lose its effect, and lost the initiative in the battlefield, chasing us behind us and hitting us!"

"It can be said that we won the first game of the outskirts."

"But we should not forget that in terms of overall strength, the Japanese are far behind us."

"Even if they are in a passive state now, as long as they truly understand our strength, Matsumoto will re-lay out and kill us bit by bit."

"Of course, some people will say that we can retreat and fight guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare with the Japanese in Linfen, and slowly consume them."

"But everyone seems to have forgotten a very fatal problem. We now have no mass base in Linfen."

"If the troops are lost, they can also be supplemented with prisoners. But what if there are no prisoners?"

"There are also food and ammunition, how to solve these!"

"So, now everyone must recognize the reality: if we really fight for consumption with the Japanese through mobile warfare and guerrilla warfare, we will definitely not be our opponents!"

"But, how to solve this problem?"

"My idea is very simple. To fight, to fight big battles, to kill one of their main forces before Matsui finds out our true strength."

"As long as he can kill a brigade, the Eighth Route Army that pounced on us would stop and retreat."

"At that time, we will have an excellent opportunity to expand our troops!"

Speaking of this, Wang Ping still had a word in his mind.

Autumn harvest, Linfen will be in autumn harvest in another month.

After the autumn harvest began, the Japanese army's important task was to arm the robbery of food from the people, and had no extra energy to deal with it.

You should know that as the war continues, the Japanese army is increasingly dependent on fighting for war. If they cannot grab enough food during the autumn harvest, Matsumoto in Linfen City will definitely be scolded by superiors, and it is possible to lose the position of the brigade commander.

As long as you can severely damage the Japanese army in a short period of time, Matsumoto will not be able to understand the strength of the new regiment in a short period of time, and will be timid and drag it to the autumn harvest. The new regiment can usher in at least two months of stable exhibition time.

Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong experienced many battlefield miracles with Wang Ping, and there were many battles that defeated the more with less, which could be regarded as having a lot of knowledge.

However, after hearing the group leader's decision, he was still shocked.

He was stunned for a few seconds before asking back: "Captain, don't scare me. A Japanese army has a strengthened infantry brigade and a puppet army. The total strength is more than 200. On the surface, we have two battalions, but in fact there are only four companies. Apart from the loss of one day, less than 800 people can fight! There are even fewer combat troops, and there are only more than 600 guards!"

"Look at the Japanese equipment: four mountain cannons, two infantry cannons, nine mortars. No, there are twelve mortars, and one regiment of the puppet army is also equipped with three mortars. As for heavy machine guns, plus the puppet army, there are fourteen! "

"With such a powerful firepower, is it possible for us to wipe out them all?"

Seeing Wang Ping frowning and not speaking, Zhong Chenggong continued to analyze: "Also, the Japanese probably are afraid of division of troops. Since we came out of the mountain, their main force has been embracing a group of troops, without division of troops!"

"In this case, the only way we can destroy them is not available to defeat them here!"
