Chapter 1098 Okamura Neji’s plan to wipe out the family
The deputy's analysis enlightened the chief of staff, and some unclear questions in his mind suddenly became clear at this moment. He immediately proposed to Okamura Neji: "Your Excellency, Commander..."
"The humble post also agreed to send troops to the 6th Division of the Wing Center to force the independent brigade that attacked Shijiazhuang to return to their base area by attacking in the east and west."
"As long as the Eighth Route Army attacking Shijiazhuang does not have the support of artillery fire and tanks, with the existing combat effectiveness of the Shijiazhuang garrison, it will definitely be able to turn defeat into victory, drive out all the Eighth Route Army that invaded Shijiazhuang, and regain Shijiazhuang."
"Although the only brigade in the wing has three regiments of troops, the base area they need to defend is too large and there are too many roads."
"Splitting the troops for defense is undoubtedly a poor choice. Based on my understanding of the Eighth Route Army in Yi Zhong from my humble position, they will definitely not do this."
"The best way is to gather the main forces together and arrange a large number of local troops to block all the roads where we may raid their base areas. Once we send out troops, use guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare to harass us, slow down our marching speed, consume our troops, and at the same time provide
The main force reinforces the battlefield to buy time."
"I have an idea that can break the Eighth Route Army's tactics."
"When the troops raided the Eighth Route Army base area, they deployed some troops to bluff, and then organized some puppet troops to wear imperial army uniforms to confuse the remaining Eighth Route Army troops."
"When encountering the Eighth Route Army guerrillas and local troops, let the real imperial army counterattack, with as much firepower as possible, so that the Eighth Route Army cannot tell which raiding force is the main force and which is a virtual force."
"As long as we gain two days, the real main force can drive into Pozhu and penetrate 70 to 80 kilometers into the Yizhong Eighth Route Army base area, thus threatening the security of the Yizhong Sixth Army Division Headquarters."
"If the Independent Brigade does not immediately mobilize troops to return reinforcements, we will disperse the main force that has penetrated into their base area, carry out sabotage and killing people everywhere, and take the opportunity to destroy the foundation of the Eighth Route Army in the wing..."
"The worst result is that an accident occurs in the hinterland of the Eighth Route Army base in Yi Zhong, but as long as their reaction speed on the battlefield is fast enough and their marching route is erratic, making the Eighth Route Army confused about their trajectory, they can definitely severely damage Yi Zhong before they are destroyed.
Central Sixth Army Division."
"It is said that the Eighth Route Army is an army of the common people. With the support of the common people, they can continue to exist."
"If we kill all the people in the Sixth Army Division in Yizhong, I wonder who in the Yizhong area will continue to support the Eighth Route Army."
"Without the support of the common people, no matter how strong the combat effectiveness of the Yizhong Eighth Route Army is, it will be completely hopeless and without any supplies of food and ammunition. Sooner or later, it will fall into a desperate situation of running out of ammunition and food. Maybe they will collapse without us attacking.
"
The chief of staff's method was cruel and vicious, and it directly destroyed the future of the Eighth Route Army from the very foundation.
Okamura Neji was moved after hearing this.
He is also a ruthless man. As long as he can kill the Eighth Route Army in Yizhong and avenge his past humiliation, he will not even frown if he kills all the Chinese in the Sixth Army division in Yizhong, let alone hundreds of thousands of Chinese civilians.
brow.
After staring at the sand table and thinking for a minute, he replied: "We not only need to confuse the Eighth Route Army who are staying in the Yizhong base area, but also find ways to confuse the independent brigade attacking Shijiazhuang."
"It's true and false, so that the Eighth Route Army can't tell which of our troops is the main force and which of our troops is the virtual force."
"The later the Eighth Route Army finds out the specific whereabouts of our main force, the better the war situation will be for us."
"As long as the real main force is successfully inserted into the hinterland of the Sixth Army Division in the Wing, we will have won more than half of this eastward attack on the west."
"The next thing that needs to be done is to wreak havoc on their base area, kill everyone on sight, completely anger the Eighth Route Army in Yizhong, and use themselves as bait to force the Independence Brigade to return to the base area to support them."
"Otherwise, our attacking troops would be besieged a day later, and the losses in their base areas would increase by several percent."
The chief of staff immediately raised another question: "The key question now is where do we get so many troops to bluff, so that the Eighth Route Army cannot tell which of all the attacking troops is the main force and which is a bluff in a short period of time.
"
"Arrest people..." Okamura Neji replied cruelly.
"Let the Baoding garrison and the Xiongxian garrison capture the Chinese around them, mainly in light clothing. Let them wear the uniforms of the Imperial Army and the Imperial Association Army, equipped with rifle machine guns that were damaged on the battlefield, and help the Imperial Army and the Imperial Association Army attack the wings.
Central Eighth Route Army base area."
The chief of staff reminded again: "With such a big movement, with the intelligence collection capabilities of the Eighth Route Army intelligence personnel, they will definitely be able to get the news in advance. Will this have some adverse effects on us to confuse them and allow them to quickly distinguish among all the attacking troops?"
The real main force.”
Okamura Neiji shook his head and replied: "No, I just want the Eighth Route Army to know that many of the troops dispatched from Baoding and Xiongxian County are not real soldiers."
"Don't they claim to be a people's team?"
"Since it is a team of ordinary people, we will definitely not rob the ordinary people."
"After knowing that there are a large number of ordinary people hidden in our army, they will become restrained and dare not act casually."
"As long as there is no large-scale exchange of fire between the two sides, it will be difficult for the Eighth Route Army to tell the authenticity of the raiding force."
"In order to make it more difficult for the Eighth Route Army to distinguish whether our army is real or fake, the real main force should be more chaotic when marching. After being attacked, a small number of troops will fight back on the spot, and other troops will hide like ordinary people."
"False and false, true and false, only in this way can the Eighth Route Army be confused."
"By the time they react, our real assault force has already entered the hinterland of their base."
"The initiative on the battlefield will also be transferred to our hands, and we have the final say on how to fight next."

Divisional Headquarters of the 6th Yizhong Army.
The news that the east gate of Shijiazhuang had been breached had just been sent to Kong Jie and Huang Yu. The good news that the Taiyuan and Jinan reinforcements had suffered heavy losses on the march was then forwarded by the headquarters.
Huang Yu looked happy and said: "Commander..."
"The little devils stationed in Baoding and Xiong County are probably about to move."
"The reinforcements sent from Taiyuan and Jinan are unreliable. We have also breached the east gate of Shijiazhuang. Time is limited. Apart from the garrisons from Baoding and Xiongxian, looking around Shijiazhuang, there is no third force that can reinforce the battlefield."
"Even if Okamura Neji knew that this was our conspiracy against the troops garrisoned in Baoding and Xiong County, he would not be able to do anything about it."
"I suggest that all remaining troops in the base area be ready for battle. The independent regiment immediately blocks all roads leading to and from our base area. The guerrillas and local troops along the route should strengthen their vigilance. If any Japanese and puppet troops are found, report them immediately."
"We also need the reconnaissance troops and intelligence personnel monitoring Baoding and Xiongxian to keep an eye on all city gates to prevent the Japanese and puppet troops from sending troops at night and catching us by surprise."
