Chapter 52 The way to deal with the new regiment
Fight guerrilla warfare with guerrilla warfare!
Among the First Army, it seems that only the Yamamoto Special Forces have such capabilities. After all, special operations are actually a more advanced form of guerrilla warfare.
Thinking of this, Yoshio Shinozuka signaled to the communications staff officer who was still standing in front of him waiting for orders: "Go and call Yamamoto-kun over here!"
"Hiyi!"
The Japanese communications staff immediately ordered and then retreated.
Then, Yoshio Shinozuka signaled to the Japanese colonel from the intelligence department: "Iijima-kun, from now on, you must focus on collecting information about the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army and the 358th regiment of the Shanxi-Sui Army!"
"Hiyi!"
The leader of the Japanese army, Zordon, saw Yoshio Shinozuka waving to him, so he wisely retreated.
Jun Miyano heard the meaning of Shinozuka Yoshio's words and asked: "Your Majesty Commander, do you plan to let the Yamamoto special agent team deal with the New 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army and the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army?"
"good!"
Yoshio Shinozuka nodded slightly.
Miyano Shun: "With Yamamoto-kun taking action, it may not be possible to completely eliminate the New Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, but it should not be a big problem to take down the New Regiment's headquarters and eliminate the New Regiment's commander Li Yunlong.
In this way, the new leaderless group will no longer be able to pose a threat to our Imperial Japanese Army."
Yoshio Shinozuka nodded again.
In his opinion, in the battle of Maple Ridge, although the Yamamoto Agent Team was defeated by the New Regiment, it was because they fell into the ambush circle of the New Regiment's main force on the way back, which made the Yamamoto Agent Team's tactical advantage and single-handedly
The advantage of the soldiers' combat effectiveness cannot be brought into play.
As long as the Yamamoto Special Agent Team leaves well prepared, even if it is an encounter, they will definitely be able to start a new team again.
The independent group in Yangcun is the best example.
It is also a regiment-level combat unit of the Eighth Route Army. Even if the new regiment's combat effectiveness is stronger than that of the independent regiment, it is certainly not much better.
After a while, Yamamoto Kazuki came to the headquarters. He nodded fiercely to Shinozuka Yoshio and Miyano Shun, and asked for instructions: "Your Excellency, Commander, are you looking for me?"
Shinozuka Yoshio nodded slightly, and then handed over the situation information collected by Iijima Mori.
Yamamoto Kazuki took the information and found that it was all about the New Regiment of the Eighth Route Army.
Naturally, Kazuki Yamamoto was no stranger to the New Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. It was this unit that ambushed him in Maple Ridge.
It is worth mentioning that the reason why the Japanese army learned this half-true and half-false intelligence was because of Kong Jie's combat report.
This is not a secret, and it is even easier to obtain than the information on the Shilipo Incident and the Donghuixiang Incident.
After reading the information, Yamamoto Kazuki probably already knew the purpose of Shinozuka Yoshio calling him here.
He closed the information folder and asked: "Your Excellency, Commander, do you want me to deal with the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army?"
"good!"
Yoshio Shinozuka nodded: "This new regiment of the Eighth Route Army attacked the Imperial Army's strongholds one after another, causing great losses to the Imperial Army. If it is allowed to continue to develop, it will definitely become a serious problem for the Imperial Army in the future!
Therefore, I decided to send you to destroy this Eighth Route Army!"
Yamamoto Kazuki has never taken the small Chinese army seriously. Even in the Battle of Maple Ridge, he suffered a big loss at the hands of the "New Group", but he still did not change his view.
In his eyes, only the General Headquarters of the Eighth Route Army and Yan Laoxi's General Headquarters were his targets.
Because only raiding these two places can change the Japanese military and even high-level prejudices against special operations, and wiping out a small new regiment of the Eighth Route Army will obviously not achieve such an effect.
At that moment, Yamamoto Kazuki pondered for a moment and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, I feel that no matter how strong Li Yunlong's troops are, they are just a platoon, and they are just ants in front of our powerful Imperial Army."
"And what we really have to deal with is the entire Eighth Route Army and all the Chinese troops in the second theater, not Li Yunlong's regiment."
"It is true that Li Yunlong's troops won several victories by relying on sneak attacks, ambushes, etc., but this just shows that his troops are not strong enough, so they need to use sneak attacks instead of attacking from the front."
"Besides, although these sneak attacks by the New Regiment have brought some losses to the imperial army, they are not enough to change the strategic situation of the entire second theater."
"In my opinion, only the elimination of the entire Chinese Army in the Second Theater is a strategic victory. The elimination of one of Li Yunlong's regiments may not even be considered a tactical victory.
Because any imperial army unit above the brigade level can easily defeat this Chinese army."
Of course Yoshio Shinozuka knew what Yamamoto Kazuki said. He said with a serious face: "Yamamoto-kun, of course I know that any Imperial Army unit above the brigade level can defeat this China Army, but the problem is,
This Chinese army is as cunning as a loach. It never engages in direct combat with the main force of the imperial army.
The only time we had a chance to destroy this Chinese army was at Cangyun Ridge, but you saw the final result."
"Right now, this Chinese army is attacking the imperial army's strongholds everywhere. In addition to Shilipo and Donghui Township, there are many strongholds that have been attacked by them.
What it brought to the imperial army was not only the obvious losses, but also endless humiliation!"
After a pause, Shinozuka Yoshio changed his voice and continued: "Yamamoto-kun, I know you are eager to prove your special agent team and your tactical theory through a big victory.
But I must remind you that there is an old saying in China that says you can’t eat hot tofu in a hurry, so don’t rush for quick success.
Although the Eighth Route Army headquarters must be attacked, the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army must also be dealt with!
Besides, you also know that this Chinese army almost never confronts the main force of the imperial army, so only your troops are the most suitable to deal with him!"
"Hi Yi! I understand, I understand!"
Kazuki Yamamoto nodded heavily. Although he was arrogant, he did not dare to rely on his talent and arrogance, because almost all Japanese high-level officials respected large-scale operations and were not interested in Yamamoto Kazuki's special operations, so Yamamoto Kazuki, who had no background, could not
He was reused. The students who graduated from Mainland University in the same period were at least major general-level officers, and he was just a junior colonel officer.
Only Yoshio Shinozuka re-employed Kazuki Yamamoto and gave him a chance to prove himself.
For Kazuki Yamamoto, Yoshio Shinozuka was not only his superior, but also a noble person who had shown him kindness.
Therefore, even if Shinozuka Yoshio's order made Yamamoto Kazuki feel that it was overqualified to deal with the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army, he would not dare to do so, let alone disobey the other party's order.
"very good!"
Yoshio Shinozuka nodded with satisfaction: "Yamamoto-kun, go down and prepare first. I will tell you as soon as I have the exact information about the new Shina Army Regiment."
"Hiyi!"
