When the headquarters received the news, Kong Jie had already led the Independent Regiment and launched an unprecedented large-scale ambush in the history of the war with the Japanese army since the establishment of the Independent Regiment.
The location is on the road at the foot of Daqingshan Mountain.
As for the opponent, there is a full Japanese squadron, plus the third regiment of the North China Security Army's Third Group Army. To put it bluntly, it is the Imperial Association Army. It has a lot of troops, nearly 2,000 people. It is composed of the Imperial Association Army. Among the third, fourth, and fifth regiments under the Third Group Army of the North China Public Security Army, it is the so-called regiment with the strongest combat effectiveness and the most powerful troops.
And how many people did Kong Jie use to ambush?
It can be said that this is the strongest military strength since the establishment of the independent regiment. Four battalions are gathered here, only the guard company and commando team are missing.
The four battalions in front of us are naturally the four battalions built by Kong Jie in recent days. The main members are some of the backbone of the regiment, plus local army and militia comrades.
Battalion Commander Lei Dasheng, as mentioned before, was the former deputy battalion commander of the Second Battalion and the old partner of Second Battalion Commander Shen Quan.
To be clear, there were four battalions of the Independent Regiment participating in this ambush, also nearly 2,000 people.
The comparison of the strength of the two sides is almost 1:1.
As for the actual comparison of troops, that was not the case when regimental commander Kong Jie and the four battalion commanders talked about it before the war started.
"Captain, excluding the four battalions led by the deputy commander, the guard company and the commando team are fighting in the direction of Lijiapo. Our independent regiment can be regarded as all out this time. Using such a large formation, we can only deal with one The Japanese in the squadron, how do you say this? This is called killing a pig with a cattle knife."
First Battalion Commander Wang Leihu expressed his views.
When everyone was talking, the Japanese and puppet troops had not yet arrived at Daqingshan, more than ten minutes away, but the information had already passed through the reconnaissance platoon and reached the ears of Kong Jie and his party.
Fourth Battalion Commander Lei Dasheng has the same view as First Battalion Commander Wang Leihu.
Maybe it's because both of them have the word "Thunder" in their names, but their temperaments are somewhat similar.
Speaking of which, as the former deputy battalion commander of the Second Battalion, Lei Dasheng can’t see much of Chen Quan in him.
"Captain, I agree with Lao Wang. Just one squadron of Japanese soldiers may not be enough for our four battalions."
Watching the first and fourth battalion commanders bragging, the second battalion commander Shen Quan couldn't sit still and naturally started mocking his old partner:
"I'm talking about Lao Lei, Lei Hu doesn't like to use his brain when fighting. Because the regiment leader has criticized him so many times for this matter, you still follow his example?"
"Don't you understand that a lion fights a rabbit with all his strength?"
"There is indeed only one squadron of Japanese troops approaching Daqingshan in front of us, but don't forget that the Japanese are also accompanied by the Third Regiment of the Third Group Army of the North China Security Army."
Wang Leihu said happily: "What a bullshit North China Security Army, they are just the Japanese Japs! As for the third group army, just to bluff people, there are only those three regiments below, with a total strength of only about 5,000 people."<
/p>
"The appearance is quite glamorous. I heard that most of the officers of the North China Security Army graduated from the Army Officer School specially established by the puppet army. Take the Third Group Army of the North China Security Army in front of me as an example. I heard that these two gangs
The Japs even have their own independent field hospital and a small arsenal. Although they can only produce some light weapons, it is not bad to be able to work as a traitor for the Japs."
Fourth Battalion Commander Lei Dasheng said with a smile: "Although the appearance is glamorous, in fact, the combat effectiveness is not even third-rate, and it is not much better than the puppet troops who were formerly the local security corps."
"At least the puppet soldiers in the Security Corps used to be soldiers, and most of them were volunteers. But in the North China Security Army, except for some young people who joined voluntarily and were deceived by the devils using various means, most of them are young people.
They were captured by the Japanese for forced conscription, and they were not willing at all."
"In addition, the little devils both use and distrust the North China Security Army. They only equip the puppet soldiers of the North China Security Army with light weapons. Artillery is absolutely not allowed to be equipped. Therefore, these devils use,
Most of them are pre-war guns, or guns captured by the Japanese army. There are also many broken guns and broken guns."
"With such puppet troops, what kind of combat effectiveness do you expect from them? If they can help manage public security in the occupied areas, that would be pretty good."
"Old Shen, if you don't believe it, just wait and see. As long as we defeat the Japanese squadron in one fell swoop, the remaining Imperial Army troops, no matter how many there are, will surrender as soon as the cannon fires!"
The first, second and fourth battalion commanders were arguing endlessly. The third battalion commander Wang Huaibao remained silent as usual, only occasionally smiling at the other three battalion commanders.
The eyes finally focused on the group leader Kong Jie.
Kong Jie concluded: "The first and fourth battalion commanders are right. Our main opponent this time is, to put it bluntly, the Japanese squadron. As long as the Japanese squadron can be defeated first, the remaining puppet troops will naturally not be a concern.
”
"But what the second battalion commander said makes sense. A lion fights a rabbit with all its strength. At any time, we must pay attention to our opponents in actual combat."
"According to the intelligence we detected a few days ago, the Third Group Army of the North China Security Army has an arsenal. Although it is a small arsenal that can only produce some light weapons, you will know if you think about the situation of our Eighth Route Army.
So far, our headquarters only has one water waist arsenal, which may not even be able to produce light weapons."
"If our independent group can seize the arsenal controlled by the Third Army of the North China Security Army, it will definitely be of great use."
The four battalion commanders were all startled when they heard this, "Hey guys, the four of us are discussing how to kill the Japanese and puppet troops here, and the regiment commander is thinking of attacking their arsenal!
This realm is indeed different.
Second Battalion Commander Shen Quan smiled and said: "Commander, are you interested in this puppet army's arsenal?"
Kong Jie said: "You also said that with just your four battalions, this Japanese squadron is not enough. As for this puppet army, they don't even have artillery on hand. Even if they are defeated, there will be no gain."
"Of course I have to think of ways to expand the results of the battle."
Shen Quan said: "But, Commander, it's not that easy to rob the puppet army's arsenal. Although according to our intelligence, the arsenal of the Third Group Army of the North China Security Army is in the puppet army's own territory, far away from the Japanese army." The garrison is still some distance away, but after all, it is the hinterland of the Japanese-occupied area. It would be a bit too risky for us to rush there like this."
Kong Jie smiled and said: "It's just following the clues, trying to get benefits without taking some risks. How can there be such a beautiful thing in this world?"
