Chapter 62

After a few more polite words, Wang Xuexin handed the training plan to Xie Baolin and said: "Actually, the tactics are nothing special, just strengthen discipline training!"

Xie Baolin thought Wang Xuexin was being modest and just smiled and said nothing. However, after taking a look at the training plan, he couldn't help but look at Wang Xuexin in surprise.

It turns out that this training plan is really regular training. If there is any difference, it is that the night training is strengthened.

"Captain Wang, this..." Xie Baolin was a little confused.

"Battal Commander Xie!" Wang Xuexin asked without answering: "I wonder if you have studied the Japanese attack on Zhongtiao Mountain where the stubborn troops were stationed?"

"Of course!" Xie Baolin replied.

This is necessary, because they are also stationed in Zhongtiao Mountain, and they are also attacked by the Japanese. Moreover, the Japanese won a great victory last time. In just twenty days, the entire defense line, which was said to be impregnable, collapsed... This is enough.

It proves that the Japanese tactics are correct, so the Japanese are likely to use such tactics to attack again.

As for the Eighth Route Army stationed this time, it is of course necessary to study the Japanese tactics and formulate corresponding strategies.

As the commander of the training battalion, Xie Baolin knew that sooner or later the troops would face a Japanese attack, so he learned about this battle more than a month ago from various channels including puppet prisoners and surviving stubborn troops.

"So..." Wang Xuexin asked again, "Can Battalion Commander Xie summarize the purpose of the Japanese attack?"

Xie Baolin thought for a while and gave a brief evaluation: "Suddenly, create chaos!"

Wang Xuexin secretly praised it. Although this statement is simple, it is the essence of the Japanese infiltration war.

If the recalcitrant army keeps its guard in peacetime and defends it in wartime, it will not be so easy for the Japanese to capture Zhongtiao Mountain.

After all, it occupies a good location and has a lot of bunker fortifications. Even if it is cut off and defended for several months, it is not a big problem.

The key is that the stubborn army did not expect that the Japanese would suddenly appear in the front, back or even among their own troops, so they scrambled into chaos and just focused on escaping... In such a chaotic situation, it is superfluous to talk about supplies, geographical location and fortifications.

Yes, none of them actually worked. The stubborn soldiers escaped without firing a few shots. It had nothing to do with insufficient supplies.

So, this is actually a kind of psychological warfare.

Everything the Japs did was to create fear in the stubborn troops and make them lose confidence in this battle. This was also the purpose of having the traitors call out the names of the commanders in the bunker one by one.

Wang Xuexin nodded and said: "If the devils are here for this, then we shouldn't let them succeed..."

Xie Baolin got it right, and immediately said "Oh" and replied: "As long as we don't mess up, this battle will be half won!"

"Yes!" Wang Xuexin raised his head and said: "So, what we need is regular training, and what regular troops need is regular training, because the quality of the troops will inevitably be uneven, and there will be too many demands on them.

and expectations are unrealistic!”

Xie Baolin and Wang Xuexin greatly appreciated this statement.

He originally worked in education, and what Wang Xuexin said is actually somewhat similar to what he usually teaches students... It is not easy to raise the average score of dozens of students in a class, but how can it be said that there are hundreds of thousands of people in the army to set a short-term goal?

Can everything be done within a short period of time?

Therefore, it is often simple, easy, seemingly ordinary things that are truly practical on the battlefield.

Because fighting is a matter for the whole army, it is a little difficult and it is still a tense situation on the battlefield, so most soldiers cannot complete it.

If it cannot be completed, it is equivalent to not having it, so it is not as effective as simple practicality.

With this thought, Xie Baolin looked at the training plan again.

This time, we really saw something different, such as simulated infiltration of each other at night, the use of various secret codes to identify the troops, and once the war started, everyone stayed at their posts and was not allowed to run around, otherwise they would be shot without mercy, etc.

While looking at Xie Baolin, he nodded secretly.

These are all simple and easy to do. Regular troops can do them quickly after a few drills, and it is obvious that they work.

For example, everyone should stay at their posts and not run around. Anyone who sees a moving figure in the dark should shoot...

This is actually a good way to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy.

At this time, the Japanese who infiltrated had two choices: move or stay still.

If you move, you will immediately be attacked by the firepower of the Eighth Route Army.

Not moving means they can only stay where they are and cannot make big waves.

Then Xie Baolin asked: "Captain Wang, what if the Japanese attack and blockade supply lines, or important locations like arsenals?"

These fixed-point offensive operations are different from penetration warfare.

Penetration warfare is about sneaking into enemy troops to create chaos, while fixed-point attack is about concentrating elite troops to attack forcefully. There is no question of "moving" or "not moving".

Wang Xuexin took out another drafted document and handed it to Xie Baolin, saying: "Simple, mine!"

"Landmines?" Xie Baolin curiously took the document, flipped it over, and said, "Battle Commander Wang, this requires a lot of landmines!"

It turns out that Wang Xuexin's tactic for defending these key points was mine blockade.

This is also simple and easy to do. All you have to do is physical work. Release the troops and lay mines all around the station, leaving only a few roads and mountain roads in and out, artificially creating a situation where "one man can guard the gate and ten thousand men can't open it"

Advantages.

"In terms of the quantity of landmines, we can use bullet mines!" Wang Xuexin said: "Our arsenal can produce bullets. One bullet makes a landmine. Each army can make it by themselves. It should not be difficult to popularize it!"

Xie Baolin said nothing.

This is indeed no problem, but...

"Bullet mines have little lethality!" Xie Baolin looked at the document and said, "And they are easier to dismantle. Plus we lay mines like this..."

After hearing this, Wang Xuexin understood that Xie Baolin still didn't quite understand special operations.

Wang Xuexin explained: "Battal Commander Xie, the enemy's purpose is to fight quickly and retreat quickly, otherwise they will be surrounded or even annihilated by our troops if they are not careful."

Xie Baolin said "Oh" and suddenly realized: "So, the purpose of these landmines is to make it impossible for the Japanese to attack and retreat quickly?"

"Yes!" Wang Xuexin nodded.

Xie Baolin was now convinced.

Wang Xuexin's series of seemingly "stupid" operations require a lot of manpower, material resources and time to pile up without any "smart" methods. In fact, they are all based on the characteristics of great wisdom and stupidity, all of which are aimed at the enemy's operations.

Then Xie Baolin understood what was going on:

Battalion Commander Wang himself is also training a mountain combat unit, which should be of the same nature as the Japanese.
Chapter completed!
