Chu Yunfei's eyes lit up when he heard Kong Jie's idea of the Eighth Route Army using companies to defeat Japanese squadrons.
"Brother Kong is right. The Japanese are not only cruel, but also very cunning. This can be seen from the unique organization of the Japanese troops."
"One Japanese squad corresponds to one of our squads, but they have thirteen people, while one of our regular combat squads has a full complement of twelve people, and sometimes there are even less than twelve people.
Don’t underestimate this one-person gap. The Japanese army’s equipment is better than ours. There are 13 members in a squad, one squad leader, four machine gunners, and eight riflemen.”
"When the squad combat units of both sides really fight, the gap will no longer be the gap of one person."
Having said this, Chu Yunfei continued: "As for our platoon, the one corresponding to the Japanese army is a small team, a Japanese team, with a full strength of between fifty and seventy people, which is even more than our platoon.
Number of people."
"Then a Japanese squadron had 70 or 80 more personnel than our company, and came to the battalion-level Japanese brigade. The strength of a Japanese brigade was even twice that of our battalion."
"With such an organizational gap, when we faced off against the same level of organizations, we were almost defeated at the hands of the Japanese troops, without exception."
Kong Jie took it seriously and said: "This is where the little devils and thieves live."
"So you little devil, you can say, this is the combat effectiveness of our Imperial Japanese Army. With the same level of organization, no matter whether it is the Eighth Route Army, the National Army or the Shanxi-Sui Army, they are no match for us."
"When it comes to the Japanese regiment level corresponding to our regiment-level combat unit, the Japs even have 3,000 to 5,000 people, and it would be good if the size of our combat group can be between 1,000 and 3,000.
There are probably only a few troops like Brother Chu's 358th Regiment with a size of nearly 5,000 in North China."
"This is what the Japanese often brag about. One of their brigade can even hold on to one of our regiments, and one of their regiments can even fight against one of our divisions. This kind of leapfrog fighting method makes the little Japanese feel full of superiority in their hearts." As Kong Jie spoke, the officers of the Shanxi-Sui Army and the cadres of the Independent Regiment present all nodded subconsciously.
Kong Jie changed the subject, "But how can our Eighth Route Army tolerate this little devil's bad habits?"
"Isn't he an invincible kid at the same level? Doesn't he brag about his unparalleled combat power every day? Then our Eighth Route Army will develop a combat company specifically to deal with the Japs, specifically targeting the weaknesses of his Japs squadron."
"Of course, there is a reason for the squadron operations against the Japanese."
"As the war deepened, the Japanese army's strength on the battlefield against China was already somewhat stretched. Especially when it came to mopping up our Eighth Route Army behind enemy lines, the Japanese often used a squadron as a separate combat unit, and then used rapid reinforcements between squadrons.
Make sure that independent squadrons will not be quickly eaten by our Eighth Route Army."
"So if our Eighth Route Army wants to fight the Japanese, we have to study how to quickly cripple or even kill the Japanese squadron."
……
While talking and laughing, Kong Jie seemed to regard the Japanese squadron as a piece of cake.
Chu Yunfei nodded secretly after hearing this. This idea of using a specially organized company to deal with the Japanese squadron is indeed unique.
It is not unreasonable for the Eighth Route Army to be able to fight against the Japanese behind enemy lines for so many years.
There was an officer of the Jinsui Army beside him, and he suddenly said with some arrogance: "Commander Kong, this move of your Eighth Route Army is a bit of a trivial matter. It is only aimed at the Japanese squadron. Such a target is too small. If the Japanese army sends
How about joining a brigade or even a coalition to fight?"
Kong Jie looked calm and did not speak, but Li Wenjie, who had always kept a low profile next to him, couldn't stand it anymore and said sarcastically:
"I'm afraid what the regiment leader said is wrong. Even I, a civilian, know that if the Japanese army sends a brigade or a regiment above the brigade to clean up behind enemy lines, I'm sorry, then I'm afraid they can only mobilize troops and waste time and effort in vain.
It’s time for a trip.”
"Why?"
"Our Eighth Route Army has been fighting behind enemy lines for so many years. It is not easy to eliminate it. If the Japanese army wants to deal with our Eighth Route Army, it can only encircle it."
"How many troops can the Japanese army have? Will every point be surrounded by a large group or even a regiment? If you want to pull up this big net, even a hundred thousand Japanese troops may not be enough." p>
"Under such circumstances, our ministries can easily break out and let the enemy's network collapse without any attack."
The Jinsui Army officer was retorted and retorted: "But after all, you Eighth Route Army are just fighting in a small way. Even if you can kill a Japanese squadron, how many people are there? There are less than 200 Japanese."
Li Wenjie laughed angrily and asked: "The Japanese army your Jinsui Army faced on the front was much larger, but with the Japanese you killed before and after you, could you assemble a few squadrons?"
"Is the final battle won?"
"Can Taiyuan be saved?"
"Is it possible that this regiment commander is talking nonsense here? Did you lead the troops to kill 200 Japanese soldiers?"
"I heard that some time ago, the National Army wiped out dozens of Japs, so I boasted about it. Reports were flying all over the place, and awards were pouring in. How come it can't be considered a victory when it comes to our Eighth Route Army?"
"This..."
"You..."
The commander of the Jinsui Army was speechless.
Li Wenjie said proudly: "Victory does not matter big or small, and patriotism does not matter whether it is high or low. Do we need to consider the number of people to kill the Japanese? Killing a thousand Japanese is considered resisting Japan, but does killing a hundred Japanese not count?"
"Our Eighth Route Army is behind enemy lines, next to the Japanese army. The environment of the war is the most dangerous. We dare not start large-scale battles easily, but small-scale battles are continuous. Even if we kill a small group of Japanese soldiers at a time, this small victory will add up.
It will be an unprecedented victory."
"Is it possible that such achievements in the Anti-Japanese War can be erased in the eyes of your Jinsui Army with just a small fight?"
"If the leader says this, let's see if you win small victories like this one after another."
"I..."
The old face of the commander of the Jinsui Army was turned into the color of pig liver, and he said angrily: "In the final analysis, your Eighth Route Army has always been wandering instead of fighting, resisting passively, and even disturbing the people behind enemy lines and causing trouble." As soon as these words came out, the scene became more and more out of control, which was a bit embarrassing.
On the Independent Regiment side, all the cadres stared angrily.
The expressions of Chu Yunfei, Yang Chongshan, Wu Changsheng and other silent officers of the Jinsui Army also changed slightly. They did not expect that this colleague would be so arrogant.
Kong Jie stopped Li Wenjie who was about to speak and nodded at him.
Li Wenjie took the initiative to retreat, walked aside, called a soldier, and secretly explained something.
When the Jinsui Army officer saw Li Wenjie giving in, he thought he had the upper hand and said indifferently: "Why, why doesn't Political Commissar Li stop talking? Could it be that he was stepped on and hurt his foot?"
Kong Jie asked calmly: "This regiment commander said that our Eighth Route Army was wandering without attacking. Where did these remarks come from? Did this regiment commander see it with his own eyes?"
The commander of the Jinsui Army choked and said: "Anyway, this is how the news came."
An officer from the Shanxi-Sui Army saw that the situation on both sides was not right, and thought that they were here to join forces to resist Japan this time, and added:
"The reports coming out of the Kuomintang-controlled areas should be news coming from the Central Army."
Kong Jie sneered, shook his head, and suddenly asked: "There should be someone here who can contact the Japanese, right?"
These words shocked all the officers of the Jinsui Army. Chu Yunfei's face changed slightly and said: "Brother Kong, you can't say this nonsense. We are officers of the Jinsui Army. How could we have an affair with the Japanese army?" Kong Jie said: "There is no best. If there is one, I think he knows best in his heart how ridiculous it is to swim without attacking."
"Whether our Eighth Route Army is wandering instead of attacking, whether it is not fighting the Japanese, the little Japanese know best.
Whether our Eighth Route Army is disturbing the people, the people in this base area know best."
"In addition, I would like to ask one more question. The recent news about our Eighth Route Army wandering around without attacking and disturbing the people should have come from the direction of Zhongtiao Mountain, right?"
The Jinsui Army officer who had spoken earlier hesitated, obviously acquiescing.
Then Li Wenjie arrived again, holding some documents in his hand and strode over.
"Guerrilla is indeed a guerrilla, but I think you are talking about this kind of guerrilla, right?"
Li Wenjie said, handing the document in his hand to Chu Yunfei and others.
Chu Yunfei and his party took the documents and browsed them, and immediately, their expressions changed.
These documents seem to be reports, with articles and many photos taken on the spot.
It is true that in the Zhongtiao Mountain area, there are guerrillas disturbing the people. The photos show them entering villages to steal food and even injuring people.
But anyone can see that those so-called guerrillas who disturb the people are clearly wearing the uniforms of the national army.
This is the remnant of the National Army guerrillas in Zhongtiao Mountain.
Faced with Chu Yunfei's somewhat evasive glances, Kong Jie slowly spoke:
"I often hear that there is a kind of thief, called thief or catch thief. I didn't understand it at first, but today I finally understand that there are such insidious and shameless people in this world."
"In the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, the Chinese army suffered a humiliating defeat, but many guerrillas were left behind in Zhongtiao Mountain. They originally wanted to contain the Japanese army and then look for fighter opportunities.
As a result, these guerrillas performed terribly.
Soon they were swept back and forth by the Japanese, beating them to pieces. Those who needed to surrender surrendered, and those who needed to escape ran away.
The remaining ones are even more nondescript. Under the banner of guerrillas, they rush eastward when seeing the Japanese every day, which seems to be a bit of a wandering but not a fight.
He ran into the village and robbed the villagers of their food, livestock, and materials before they had anything to do. He was just like a bandit."
"So, the thoughtful people and those bastards who knew how to make fuss began to act like monsters, saying that these are guerrillas, the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army, wandering without attacking, and disturbing the people!"
"It's a pity that what they said is so ridiculous that they don't even have a photo that can be used as evidence. I don't know what they think, and they use such a stupid way to throw dirty water."
"Now that everyone has seen these reports and photos, is there anything else you want to say?"
The descriptions of these reports are quite wonderful, as if they were seen with one's own eyes, and the reading is immersive.
Coupled with these attached photos, each one shows the reality.
Chu Yunfei couldn't help but ask: "Brother Kong, I'm curious, where did you get these photos?"
Kong Jie replied: "Unfortunately, after the Central Army's defeat in Zhongtiao Mountain, I also sent a team to the Zhongtiao Mountain area for hunting."
"I originally heard that although the Zhongtiao Mountain position was lost, the National Army still had many guerrillas fighting in the Zhongtiao Mountain area to deal with the Japanese. I was very happy, thinking that the guerrillas I sent there could also fight against the National Army.
Guerrilla joint operations.
Who would have known that after arriving, I would realize that the situation was far from what I thought."
"These photos were taken by our reporters accompanying the army."
"If Brother Chu doesn't believe it, you can send some teams to the Zhongtiao Mountain area to have a look."
Chu Yunfei shook his head, holding the report photo in his hand and said: "The evidence is here, can An Neng not believe it? In this way, slandering the Eighth Route Army for wandering instead of attacking and disturbing the people is just groundless and self-humiliating!"<
/p>
"On the other hand, the actions of the so-called guerrillas remaining in Zhongtiao Mountain are really unbearable."...
