Chapter 705 Kong Jie: Are the Japanese really willing to give up? (Second update)
Li Yunlong had fought against Baoding once and knew very well how strong Baoding's defenses were.
Last time, it was because of the lack of troops in the Baoding garrison that he took advantage of him and entered the north gate.
The current garrison in Baoding exceeds 10,000 people, and no matter how capable I am, I can't even hope to capture it.
There was nothing they could do about the Japanese and puppet troops in the city.
If you really have the opportunity to swallow up two thousand Baoding garrison in one go, it is indeed very rare.
Immediately replied: "I did it..."
"Let's go to the front line with both regiments."
"Cooperating with Xiao Huang to extract his teeth, we can't let him take all the benefits."
"We can't eat meat, so we can just drink some soup."
…………
At the Japanese brigade headquarters in Baoding, Major General Fujita started to panic a little.
In the past ten days, a total of four military columns and two transport teams were attacked.
The reinforcements also increased from the initial two squadrons to four squadrons.
Every time they captured something, the railway guerrillas would always break out of the pocket formation at the last moment and break away from the battle, which made Major General Fujita very angry.
Of course, if it were just this problem, it wouldn't be enough to make him panic.
There were a total of six battles, although not a single infantry squadron was wiped out by the railway guerrillas.
But the scattered casualties were not small.
More than a hundred people were lost in each battle, which didn't seem like much, but the cost of the six battles added up, and the mobile brigade protecting the railway line was actually consumed to the tune of 7788.
Except for the officers, the ordinary soldiers have almost changed.
"General, we still have too few mobile troops to reinforce the battlefield..." The chief of staff thought of a reason to explain, hoping to calm the brigade commander's anger.
Major General Fujita was seriously ill and rushed to the doctor, which was really believed.
Then he thought: "Then arrange two infantry brigades to reinforce the battlefield..."
"The troops are organized into squadrons and form two encirclements, the inner and outer, around the battlefield. I don't believe they can't encircle the railway guerrillas, who only have a few dozen people."
After I finished speaking, the more I thought about it, the more I realized that my judgment was correct. I strode to the sand table and pointed at the map for analysis.
"We also need to equip the reinforcements with a large number of radio stations..."
"One for each infantry squadron."
"Four infantry squadrons surrounded the railway guerrillas in the inner circle."
"Four squadrons surrounded the outer circle."
"If the inner circle is not surrounded, immediately contact the outer circle encircling troops through the radio and inform the railway guerrillas of the direction of the breakout."
"Block in front and pursue in the rear to eliminate the railway guerrillas."
As soon as the Chief of Staff heard the tone of Major General Fujita's words, he knew that he had come out of his anger, and he flattered him: "The brigade commander is wise, and I will make arrangements now for my humble duty."
"As long as the railway guerrillas appear again, their humble position will definitely make it difficult for them to escape."
Major General Kawasaki lowered his head and pouted. He did not agree with Major General Fujita's order, but he did not stand up to oppose it.
The railway guerrillas broke out of the reinforcements' pockets once and twice. This can be regarded as their good luck. They broke out of the encirclement at the last moment in five or six consecutive battles. If you think a little, you will know that this was intentional on the part of the enemy.
An attempt was made to use mobile warfare and guerrilla warfare to kill and injure a large number of pursuing troops.
As a result, Major General Fujita was so angry with the railway guerrillas that he wanted to destroy them, but he ignored such a simple problem, and then made the same mistake again and again.
The new style of play proposed by Major General Fujita may be useful, or it may not be of any use.
Before the battle begins, no one knows what the outcome will be.
As for the danger, Major General Kawasaki had already considered it.
His purpose of being a bystander was to make Major General Fujita make a mistake in Baoding and voluntarily give up his position as commander, so that he could accept orders in the face of danger, save the country from disaster, and eliminate the so-called railway guerrillas.
On the surface, I was respectful to Major General Fujita and took whatever he said without any second thoughts.
In fact, he was not idle.
After receiving orders at the critical moment, it is not just words that can save the situation.
We must fight a war, and we need intelligence support to fight the war.
If you become blind and don't even know the enemy's situation, not only will you be unable to turn the tide, but you will also suffer the same defeat as Major General Fujita.
He had already sent out his scouts to secretly investigate the strength of the Eighth Route Army in Baoding.
The investigation results were very optimistic.
It is true that the main force of the organized Eighth Route Army was not found in Baoding.
No matter how powerful the railway guerrillas are, they only have a few dozen men. Major General Fujita sent out two brigades at a time, and at most he lost one or two squadrons.
Although the mobile brigade protecting the railway has been replaced and suffered heavy losses, there are still eight to nine thousand troops stationed in Baoding.
The loss of one or two squadrons is still bearable.
If we can take the opportunity to drive away Major General Fujita, this loss will be worthwhile.
For the sake of his own future, Major General Kawasaki decisively chose to shut up and continue to be a bystander watching the show.
…………
At the enemy headquarters of the Shunping Defense Regiment, Kong Jie and Li Yunlong were smiling as they introduced the upcoming counterattack plan to Huang Yu.
"Xiao Huang, are you sure the Baoding garrison can really dispatch one or two brigades of troops..." Li Yunlong asked while listening.
"I and Lao Kong brought a total of two regiments, nearly 4,000 troops."
"With your Junpei garrison, there will definitely be four thousand and five."
"If the Baoding garrison only sends out two or three squadrons, it won't be enough for us to fill the gap between our teeth."
Huang Yu replied firmly: "Even if I don't come this time, I will come next time."
"The Baoding garrison dispatched four infantry squadrons twice in a row to encircle and suppress the special forces."
"All failed, and more than 200 people were lost."
"That old devil Fujita will increase his troops if he has a little more brains."
"The two brigades are no more and no less."
"Four of the middle-level squadrons surrounded the special forces in the inner circle, and the remaining four squadrons surrounded the outer circle, attacking both inside and outside to eliminate the special forces."
Li Yunlong's eyes immediately became hot.
Rubbing his hands together, he said: "If the Baoding garrison really dispatches eight infantry squadrons, we can eat one squadron per battalion."
Kong Jie suddenly interrupted: "Fujita is from the Kwantung Army and doesn't understand us..."
"Kawasaki has fought with us so many times and suffered so much, so we must be able to see some clues."
"Is it possible that he really lost two infantry brigades in order to defeat Fujita?"
"Isn't this price too high?"
"After Fujita falls, the position of commander of the Baoding garrison will definitely belong to him. Isn't this using his own troops as a stepping stone?"
The confident expression on Huang Yu's face did not change at all, and he continued: "Kawasaki will definitely be reluctant to part with two infantry brigades."
"But he didn't know we were capable of swallowing up so many of their troops in one go."
"At most I think we can eat up one or two squadrons."
"The troops wore civilian clothes, entered Baoding in company and platoon units, and were stationed in scattered locations."
"If any troops are exposed, the Japanese will regard us as local guerrillas."
"Even if Kawasaki discovers that this is a conspiracy, he will not stop it."
"I have arranged a lot of scouts in Baoding City. As long as the Japanese are out, we will receive news immediately."
