Chapter 1080 Chief: Then let’s fight a people’s war
"There is a way to solve this problem...and this method can only be done by the boss!" Huang Yu suddenly interrupted, staring at the map and answering seriously.
Kong Jie immediately showed an expectant expression and asked anxiously: "What can I do?"
"Is it difficult? Is it a big price to pay?"
"Mobilize all the main forces, local troops, guerrillas, and ordinary people in the base area...to fight a thoroughgoing people's war with the reinforcements that Ningji Gangmura may draw from Taiyuan and Jinan."
"If the Japanese and puppet reinforcements walk on the highway with heavy weapons, we will use the old method to block them halfway. We will be unable to continue to reinforce Shijiazhuang, forcing Ningci of Gangcun to mobilize troops from Pingjin or Baoding and Xiongxian County."
"If the Japanese and puppet reinforcements give up heavy weapons and wing-centered ammunition and use small roads, then we will disperse the main force and divide the troops into battalions and companies to defend all small roads and mountain roads. With the cooperation of local guerrillas, local troops, and ordinary people,
, use guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare to deal with them severely."
"Plunging them into the quagmire of people's war and making them unable to get out even if they want to."
Kong Jie immediately became interested and asked: "Can you be more specific?"
Huang Yu looked at the map in front of him and replied: "Without heavy weapons and baggage and ammunition, the Japanese and puppet troops can go to too many places."
"Even if you don't take the mountain roads and trails, you can go all the way to Shijiazhuang through mountains, wastelands, fertile fields..."
"The main force has limited strength, so they alone will definitely be unable to defend against it."
"In this case, we will hand over the investigation task to the people in the base area and mobilize the masses to keep an eye on all Japanese and puppet troops entering Shijiazhuang from Taiyuan east."
"By destroying roads, making traps, and laying landmines... we will delay the march of the Japanese and puppet troops. We will block them for every minute we can."
"Local troops and guerrillas quickly reinforced the battlefield based on the intelligence provided by the people, and used guerrilla warfare, mine warfare, small-scale blocking warfare, mobile warfare, sparrow warfare... to attack the Japanese and puppet reinforcements, further slowing down their marching speed and consuming their troops?
"
"Prevent the main force from taking final action."
"As soon as we reach the battlefield, we will launch an attack on the Japanese and puppet troops..."
"The attack I'm talking about is not an ordinary sneak attack or a feint attack, but a real attack."
"The Japanese army was not equipped with heavy weapons, and they were attacked during the march. The losses caused by being caught off guard would definitely be huge."
"If we want to complete the reinforcement mission and get rid of the attack of our main force, we can only cut off our strength and leave some troops behind to hold back our attacking force."
"After the Japanese and puppet troops were divided, our main force quickly left the battle and handed over the battlefield to local troops and ordinary people, asking them to help us besiege the Japanese and puppet troops at the rear."
"If the main force on the front line is not at ease, some troops can be left behind to cooperate in the battle."
"But the main force must free up its hands to continue attacking the remaining main force of the Japanese and puppet troops, forcing them to continue dividing their troops and slowing down their march!"
Kong Jie frowned and asked: "If our main force at that time only had one battalion, and the Japanese and puppet reinforcements had six to seven thousand people, and there was a ten-fold disparity in strength, would we still have to attack by force?"
Huang Yu answered firmly: "Even if there is only one company, we must launch a strong attack..."
"What if the Japanese and puppet troops suddenly launch a counterattack and want to swallow up our attacking troops?"
"After all, the superiority in military strength lies in the hands of the Japanese and puppet troops."
"As long as they are willing, they can dispatch one or two brigades at any time to launch a counterattack and catch us off guard..."
Huang Yu showed no worry at all on his face. Instead, he smiled and replied: "Commander..."
"I'm not afraid that the Japanese and puppet troops will besiege our offensive troops, but I'm afraid that they won't have the guts to besiege our offensive troops..."
"Think about it, if the Japanese and puppet troops have a huge appetite and want to swallow up all our attacking troops... then one battalion of ours can hold back one reinforced brigade of the Japanese army, and two regiments can hold back six to seven thousand Japanese and puppet troops.
military!"
"If two more main force groups come, we can concentrate our superior forces to defeat them one by one, and kill the reinforcements that Neji Okamura dispatched from Taiyuan and Jinan!"
Kong Jie was silent for two minutes and then replied: "That's what I say, but the price paid by the attacking troops must be very shocking."
"It is very possible that our follow-up troops have not yet arrived on the battlefield, and the first few troops to attack have already suffered devastating blows or suffered heavy casualties!"
Huang Yu shook his head and replied: "Commander... things are not as bad as you think."
"The combat effectiveness of the Japanese army has long been different from what it used to be."
"After several years of fighting, the ordinary soldiers in the team have changed at least twice, and their combat effectiveness has dropped sharply."
"On the other hand, our Eighth Route Army has been baptized by the flames of war in the past two years, and coupled with the continuous improvement of equipment and ammunition, the overall real combat effectiveness has continued to increase."
"For troops of the same size, even if the Eighth Route Army is still no match for the Japs, it can't be much different."
"More importantly, the Japanese army relied too much on artillery."
"If they take small roads to reinforce Shijiazhuang, they won't be able to carry the heavy weapons the troops rely on. They will only be equipped with some heavy machine guns and mortars."
"Without heavy weapons to provide fire support on the battlefield, the Japanese army will become a tiger without its fangs. Its combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced, and it will be almost impossible to easily eat one of our main battalions."
"So I hope that the little devil who was attacked will take the initiative to counterattack."
"Our troops will be able to use their tactics to drag the Japanese and puppet troops who launched a counterattack on the battlefield."
"When more and more Eighth Route Army troops arrive on the battlefield, it will be difficult for the Japanese army to reinforce Shijiazhuang."
…………
The former enemy headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.
After receiving the reminder telegram jointly sent by Kong Jie and Huang Yu, the deputy commander-in-chief immediately flashed a confident expression on his face. He looked at the map and said arrogantly: "Kong Jie and Xiao Huang's concerns are not unreasonable."
"But these two guys still underestimated the strength of our Eighth Route Army."
"As long as Okamura Neji dares to mobilize troops from Shijiazhuang and Jinan to reinforce Shijiazhuang, give up heavy weapons and ammunition, and use small roads to reinforce, I guarantee that they will be trapped in the quagmire of the People's War and unable to get out of Shandong and Shanxi."
The chief of staff believed deeply: "Our Eighth Route Army is an army of ordinary people..."
"After several years of development, there are more local armed forces affiliated with each base than the main force."
"It will definitely not work for them to deal with the well-equipped Japanese and puppet troops."
"But if there are Japanese and puppet troops who dare not carry heavy weapons and ammunition, and take the small and mountain roads through our base area to reinforce Shijiazhuang, it will be a good opportunity for those local troops and guerrillas to practice."
"The main force is lurking around as hunters. When they find an opportunity, they pounce on them and tear off a piece of fat from the Japanese and puppet soldiers."
"This time we not only want to prevent them from reinforcing the troops, but also find a way to eliminate them in our base area, so that Okamura Neiji loses his wife and loses his troops."
"Now or never."
"Perhaps when the Anti-Japanese War ends, we will only encounter such a good opportunity once."
