Chapter 291 Head, I want to go to reinforce Head Li
"Concentrate your forces to ambush the weaker reinforcements, and divide your forces to block the stronger reinforcements with a small force!" Kong Jie understood the answer, grabbed a pencil, and began to study the map, analyzing it as he read.
"Three routes of reinforcements... The strength of the Japanese and puppet troops on the left side will not exceed 1,000 people... The strength of the Japanese and puppet troops on the right side will not exceed 2,000 people... The strongest Japanese and puppet troops on the middle route should be more than 1,000 troops...
Three thousand people..."
"After this period of development, the total strength of the independent regiment is at least 4,000, and its firepower is no worse than that of the Japanese..."
"We have settled the time difference, and there will definitely be no problem in ambushing the Japanese and puppet troops on the left and right..."
Huang Yu suddenly interrupted: "Captain...you missed one unit..."
"There are not only main forces in the defense zone, but also a large number of local troops..."
"I did some calculations. There are three county brigades, more than ten district squads, and dozens of guerrillas. The total number of people is at least 2,000!"
"The total strength of the main force is far more than 4,000 people..."
"Take the assault battalion as an example. More than a month ago, the total strength exceeded 500 people..."
"In the past month or so, we have defeated many bandits and traitor armed forces, and ambushed two transport teams. We not only seized a large amount of food and weapons and equipment, but also captured more than 200 prisoners."
"After mobilization, more than 120 prisoners took the initiative to join our Eighth Route Army!"
"Our actions also caused a huge sensation in the local area, and more than a hundred local people joined us!"
"These are the new recruits we recruited after strictly controlling the recruitment conditions. If we relax the conditions, we can recruit two to three hundred more people without any problem!"
"Despite this, the total strength of the assault battalion has still increased to more than 800 people!"
"I don't know the situation of other troops, but it will definitely not be worse than the assault battalion..."
"We have six main battalions, one guard battalion, one assault battalion... There are more than 5,000 people in the eight main battalions."
"Including the artillery company directly under the regiment, the transport battalion, and the cavalry company... six thousand people will definitely be indispensable."
"If we add more than 2,000 local troops to the mix, we can mobilize at least 8,000 people to participate in the ambush..."
"It will definitely be no problem to eat the reinforcements on the left and right!"
The more Kong Jie analyzed, the happier he became, and he immediately ordered: "Then this action is decided!"
"I will issue assembly orders to all battalion commanders now... As soon as the chief of staff comes back, we will designate an ambush plan..."
Huang Yu did not answer immediately, but showed a hesitant expression as he hesitated to speak.
Kong Jie knew what he was planning as soon as he saw it, and immediately asked: "If you have anything to say, just say it... A manly man, don't coy with me here, like a bitch!"
"Report to the leader... I don't want to participate in the next ambush battle... I want to lead the assault battalion to reinforce Captain Li..." Huang Yu mustered up the courage to report.
"Although the Independent Regiment and the New Regiment can block many Japanese and puppet reinforcements, there are still many reinforcements that they need to stop by themselves!"
"No matter how bad Ping'an County is, it can still muster more than 2,000 troops, and there are solid fortifications that can be defended. The siege pressure of the New Second Regiment must be very high. I'm worried that they won't be able to spare many troops to block the attack!"
"I brought the assault battalion over. At the very least, I can help Commander Li block the reinforcements along the way, so that the New Second Regiment can gather more troops to attack Ping'an County!"
"The faster he takes Ping'an County, the less pressure we will have to stop him..."
Kong Jie said nothing, but changed the map in front of him to the map of the new second regiment's defense zone.
After some research, he ordered: "There are too few troops in one battalion..."
"I will hand over the regiment cavalry company and special forces team to you..."
"They are good at raids. It would be a waste to stay here to block them. Following you can have unexpected effects!"
At the Japanese garrison headquarters in Ping'an County, Colonel Yamamoto was in a very bad mood...
The telecommunications room has been calling the special agents attacking the headquarters of the New Regiment and the Independent Regiment, but until dawn, there was no response from the two special agents.
At this time, the fool also guessed that the two special agent teams were defeated, and it was a disastrous defeat... It was very possible that not a single agent team had withdrawn, otherwise they would definitely try their best to contact him.
"Sir... our radio contact with the Zhangjiachong stronghold has also been interrupted... I suspect that it has been occupied by an independent group..." The garrison captain walked up to Yamamoto and reported with a long sigh...
From the bottom of his heart, Colonel Yamamoto did not want to admit that he had failed...
But in the face of the bloody facts, he had to accept reality.
The battle plan of besieging the New Second Regiment in Ping'an County quickly flashed into his mind...
Only by killing the New Second Regiment can he give an explanation to the military and possibly save the Yamamoto special agent team!
Otherwise, given the outcome of the Yamamoto Special Agent Team's losing streak in the Eighth Route Army, no matter how optimistic Shinozuka Yoshio is about himself, he will not be able to resist the general trend of disbanding the Yamamoto Special Agent Team...
Thinking about it, a glimmer of hope rekindled on Colonel Yamamoto's face full of despair. He stared at the garrison captain and asked: "How is the New Second Regiment? Have any troops been sent to besiege Ping'an County..."
"Reporting to the commander, the latest intelligence shows that the main force of the New Second Regiment gathered in Zhaojiayu has exceeded 4,000 people... There are also a large number of local troops of the Eighth Route Army rushing there, and the total force is likely to exceed 6,000 people!"
Colonel Yamamoto did not show any worry on his face, but smiled: "It doesn't matter..."
"The more troops the New Second Regiment gathers, the greater the results we will achieve in Ping'an County..."
"Continue to keep an eye on Zhaojiayu and report any situation immediately!"
"Contact the two nearest strongholds in the next county! Let them prepare to evacuate!"
"As soon as the main force of the New Second Regiment comes towards Ping'an County, they will immediately abandon their stronghold, bring only weapons and ammunition, and march back to the county to support them!"
"Use all the light and heavy machine guns in the arsenal to strengthen the Imperial Army and Imperial Alliance Army in the city..."
"Twenty light and heavy machine guns are left to strengthen the reserve team, and the remaining light and heavy machine guns are equally divided among the city defense forces in the four directions of Ping'an County..."
"This time I must turn Ping'an County into the tomb of the New Second Regiment...to avenge the warriors who died in the special agent team!"
"Kill the New Second Regiment, and then we will find a way to kill the Independent Regiment and the New First Regiment, and completely dismantle all the Eighth Route Army operating in northwestern Shanxi!"
"Sir is wise... I'll make arrangements for my humble post now!"
At the headquarters of the new second regiment in Zhaojiayu, more than twenty battalion and company commanders gathered in the conference room. They stared at the map on the table without blinking, and listened to the commander's combat orders...
"Where is the Sixth Company?" Li Yunlong asked, pointing to the map.
"Here!" Captain Huang of the Sixth Company immediately stood up and looked at the regiment leader expectantly, waiting for him to give the order!
"I heard that your boy is very good at blocking!" Li Yunlong raised his head and stared at Captain Huang and asked.
"The people are here... As long as there is one soldier alive in the Sixth Company, I promise not to let the Japanese and puppet troops cross the border!" Captain Huang said without any nonsense, he directly said what he often said to his subordinates.
"Well said, I like your fierceness!" After Li Yunlong finished speaking, he pointed at a point on the map and ordered.
"There is a Earth Temple here, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. I asked the Sixth Company to hammer it here like a nail for eight hours!"
"The eight hours I mentioned are calculated from the time you encounter the enemy, not from the time you enter the position. Do you have the confidence to complete the mission..."
"We are fighting in position!" Company Commander Huang said nothing nonsense and directly issued a military order.
Zhao Gang suddenly interrupted: "Captain Huang... you must be cautious and cautious after entering the position!"
"After research, the regiment headquarters concluded that the Japanese and puppet reinforcements passing through the Tutu Temple were at least 3,000 people!"
"In order to speed up the march, they will give up some heavy weapons, but they will definitely be equipped with a large number of mortars and heavy machine guns!"
"It's very stressful to hold off the puppet troops for eight hours under the attack of more than 3,000 days!"
"Considering that the Sixth Company has less than 300 men, there is a huge disparity in strength with the Japanese and puppet troops... The regiment headquarters has decided to deploy a county brigade and four district squads to cooperate with you in defending the Tutu Temple!"
Company Commander Huang's expression became more and more serious. He looked at Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang, took a deep breath and said, "Please rest assured, commander and political commissar... If we don't complete the blocking mission, there will definitely not be a single soldier from the Sixth Company leaving the battle alive!"
Li Yunlong was not one to procrastinate. He waved his hand and ordered: "No more nonsense... You go and prepare now... The stronger the blocking position you build, the better it can block the attack of the Japanese and puppet troops, and the smaller the casualties of the troops will be!"
Company Commander Huang saluted with a military salute and hurriedly left the regiment meeting room. Li Yunlong continued: "The Third Battalion and the Ninth Company are the most powerful among all the companies in our regiment. You go to block the Japanese and puppet troops from the southeast who are reinforcing Ping'an County."
"Although there are not many enemies there, there are too many routes that can be marched. Only you have the strength to split up your troops to block all the reinforcements..."
"Other troops will follow me to attack the county town..."
"The rules have been told to you a long time ago... Battalions 1, 2, 3 and 4, regardless of main attack and assist, launch attacks from four directions at the same time. Whoever enters Ping'an County first will be the main attacking force..."
"The fifth battalion and the troops directly under the regiment headquarters serve as reserve teams..."
"After the siege troops opened the gap, they immediately rushed into Ping'an County, eliminated the remaining enemies, and ended the battle as quickly as possible!"
"I heard that the Ping'an County arsenal stores a large amount of weapons and ammunition... After the troops enter the county, they must capture the arsenal as quickly as possible!"
At the Japanese garrison headquarters in Ping'an County, the garrison captain rushed into the war room with excitement on his face: "Sir..."
"The New Second Regiment is dispatched...More than 6,000 troops are marching toward Ping'an County..."
"Equipment with four mountain guns and infantry guns, more than ten mortars, more than ten heavy machine guns, and a large number of light machine guns..."
Colonel Yamamoto was so happy that he almost jumped up from his chair and immediately ordered: "Hurry up and give the retreat order to the stronghold outside the city!"
"The New Second Regiment is equipped with so many artillery pieces. Staying outside the city to defend the stronghold is no different than risking death. It is better to withdraw to the county and join the city defense force!"
