Kong Jie didn't seem to want to fight this battle, and directly handed Huang Yu a telegram sent by Li Yunlong not long ago: "Xiao Huang..."
"It's not that I don't support you in fighting this battle..."
"To be honest, I don't want the little Japs to come and leave whenever they want in our base area..."
"But the strength of the Independence Brigade lies there!"
"Even if the Japs' mopping up troops don't join forces and retreat, each retreating troop only has three to four thousand people. With the current strength of the independent brigade, it cannot be an opponent."
"Not to mention that their two armies are now united, resulting in a total strength of more than 7,000 troops in each retreat, and they are also equipped with nearly a hundred various field artillery, mountain artillery, and heavy artillery!"
"Faced with such a powerful enemy, Li Yunlong has no chance of winning no matter how hard he fights."
"At most, we can fight guerrillas on the way the little devils retreat, harass them, and consume some of their troops. We must not fight head-on."
After speaking, he pointed to the telegram he had just handed to Huang Yu and introduced: "Li Yunlong's telegram to the headquarters showed that the total number of soldiers in the independent brigade that can still participate in the war is less than 4,000. If you minus the gunners in it, you can really fight with the Japanese."
There are only more than 3,100 desperate riflemen..."
"Although many heavy weapons were seized during the attack on the Japanese blockade, there were only less than ten mountain field guns..."
"There is not even a large-caliber heavy artillery..."
"No matter which way the Japanese troops retreat, they will be suppressed and beaten by the Japanese with artillery fire during the battle."
"Not only won't you be able to eliminate many little devils, but you may also get yourself into trouble, losing both your wife and your troops."
Huang Yu then analyzed Kong Jie: "Commander, don't worry..."
"The battle I propose is not the independent brigade's main attack..."
"Do you want the 1st Brigade, the Special Forces Regiment and the Heavy Artillery Regiment to go up?" Kong Jie asked subconsciously.
Then he vetoed it to himself: "This seems impossible..."
"The casualties of the Sole Brigade are not much less than those of the Independent Brigade..."
"The entire army cannot defeat the retreating Japanese troops, but it will only increase casualties."
"The heavy artillery regiment and the special forces regiment are even less likely to participate in the war."
"They are equipped with too many heavy weapons and cannot leave the road. There are Japanese planes watching over their heads, so they can only march at night..."
"The soldiers are running hard and cannot catch up with the Japanese retreating troops, so they cannot unite the independent brigades to join the battle..."
After saying that, he turned his attention to the map. After looking at it for a few seconds, he continued to analyze: "There seems to be no other Eighth Route Army around our base area that can participate in the war!"
"What is the main attacking force you are talking about?"
Huang Yu smiled and answered mysteriously: "The flying group stationed in Chenjiazhuang..."
"I went to the aviation group station some time ago..."
"After more than two months of training, they have fully developed combat effectiveness."
"But no matter how well-trained the troops are, they cannot do without actual combat."
"Captain Zhou of the Flying Corps asked me more than once about participating in the war, and I wrote it down at that time."
"I think now is the best time for them to join the war..."
"As expected, the retreating Japanese troops will be stationed at the fourth blockade line that Li Yunlong has not yet destroyed tonight, and will establish a defense line based on the original garrison."
"Let's first let the independent brigade go to the Japanese garrison under cover of night and stand by..."
"After dispatching the flying regiment to carry out saturation bombing on the Japanese military garrison, their morale was shattered and they had to evacuate the garrison..."
"The Independent Brigade took the opportunity to launch an attack..."
"Even if we can't annihilate all the Japs and retreat all the way, we will definitely be able to inflict heavy damage."
"The Japanese army rushed to evacuate the battlefield after being attacked..."
"A lot of heavy equipment will definitely be left behind."
"Let the independent regiment bite tightly on the Japanese retreating troops and chase them behind them, forcing them to give up some heavy equipment and ammunition before they have time to destroy them."
"Each of the retreating troops of the little devils is equipped with nearly a hundred mountain field guns, and there are also twenty or thirty large-caliber heavy guns..."
"Just throw away some heavy weapons and you can feed us..."
Kong Jie was shocked by Huang Yu's idea.
If he hadn't reminded him, Kong Jie would have almost forgotten that there was a flying group in the base area.
After all, the flying regiment is not affiliated with the Sixth Army Division of Yi Zhong. Their command belongs to the Eighth Route Army Headquarters. They are only temporarily stationed in the Sixth Army Division and under the protection of the Sixth Army Division.
Immediately raised objections: "The flying regiment is affiliated to the Eighth Route Army headquarters..."
"Do you think the head of the headquarters will let them participate in the battle and cooperate with the independent brigade to attack the Japanese army and mop up the troops along the way?"
"The flying regiment is the seed for our Eighth Route Army to form its own air force..."
"The chiefs will definitely not let them join the war rashly..."
"Once they join the battle, the flying regiment will be exposed to the little devils."
"With the strength of the Japanese North China Front's aviation force, they can be wiped out easily!"
"Unless absolutely necessary, the headquarters will definitely not let them be exposed easily."
Huang Yu shook his head and objected: "Commander..."
"I have the opposite opinion to yours."
"Although the flying group has not been completely exposed, the little devils must have known about their existence."
"According to a report from the intelligence department: Recently, they have discovered that a large number of little Japanese intelligence agents are investigating in the direction of Chenjiazhuang..."
"Even if we don't take the initiative to expose the target..."
"Chenjiazhuang Airport can't hide it for too long."
"Instead of doing this, we might as well take the initiative and catch the Japanese by surprise before they are exposed."
"Our reserve airport has been built..."
"The flight group will move to the reserve airport immediately after completing the bombing mission!"
"The air defense force and the Sole Brigade can use Chenjiazhuang Airport as bait to launch another ambush battle with the Japanese aviation force..."
"By the way, let the Little Devil Air Force successfully bomb the Chenjiazhuang Airport, making them mistakenly believe that the flight group has been wiped out by them."
"In this way, our flight group can continue to conduct secret training at the reserve airport and train more pilots..."
"in addition……"
"The flight group's bombing trajectories are all within the base area..."
"We can repeat the old trick and light bonfires along the path that the plane must pass through to guide the plane."
"After completing the bombing mission, fly directly to the reserve airport under the guidance of the bonfire on the ground."
"Ensure that the entire bombing mission is completed at night...The Japanese aviation forces do not dare to conduct operations at night without the guidance of ground bonfires..."
"Even if they knew that our flight group was participating in the war, they did not dare to take off to fight. They only dared to wait until dawn to bomb Chenjiazhuang Airport in order to destroy our flight group..."
"As long as we arrange it properly, not only will the flying group not be in danger, but we can also give Neji Okamura the illusion that the flying group has been destroyed, and at the same time cover the independent brigade to severely inflict heavy losses on the retreating Japanese troops..."
"Killing three birds with one stone... From the perspective of the head of the headquarters, he will definitely agree to our proposal!"
Kong Jie was moved and stared at the map for a long time, then suddenly hit the table with his fist and said: "Done..."
"We will draw up a combat plan together and submit it to the headquarters for approval by the chief!"
