After everything was arranged, Kong Jie, the leader, suddenly became relaxed.
Political commissar Li Wenjie is in charge of the regiment headquarters, and there are battalions in each direction, commanded by company commanders.
Kong Jie, who knew the final direction of the battle, had no worries about successfully repelling the Japanese army.
According to Kong Jie's idea, the actions taken by the Independent Regiment this time to deal with the heavy Japanese troops pressing down on the territory were just a training exercise for the soldiers of the Independent Regiment before the disastrous May 12th raids in 1942.
Leave the battlefield to the soldiers. In order to cope with the subsequent sweeps, the company commanders of each battalion need to learn to act independently.
Commander Kong has new ideas on how to use tunnel warfare, mobile warfare, guerrilla warfare, and a combination of internal and external counter-mopping tactics to cope with the May 12th mopping-up in the near future.
Kong Jie doesn't want to miss the famous scene of Li Yunlong destroying the Japanese battlefield observation group.
Having made up his mind, Captain Kong took the monk and two more guard squads, and rushed to the station of the New Second Regiment through the secret transportation channel from the Independent Regiment to the New Second Regiment.
When Kong Jie arrived, Li Yunlong, Chu Yunfei and his party had just set off, but were overtaken by Kong Jie and his party.
Li Yunlong was very surprised to see Kong Jie, "Haha, Lao Kong, why did you come to my place? You haven't seen me for a few days, and you miss me again, right?"
Kong Jie complained in his heart that he was worried about you, Captain Li.
If you weren't worried that you, Li Yunlong, after destroying the Japanese observation group according to the script, had to compete with the Japanese Major General Hattori Naoomi, and the monk was not with you, if you, old Li Zhen, were not the opponent of the Japanese, it would be a big shame.
Sent.
Of course, the main reason is that Kong Jie wanted to come and see the excitement. This is a famous scene not to be missed.
When the words came to his lips, Kong Jie said with a smile: "Old Li, don't flatter yourself. If I hadn't been a guest at your place because of Brother Chu, why would I have come to accompany you?"
Chu Yunfei laughed, but he pointed out: "Brother Yunfei left an army privately, which is against the deployment of your superiors. Brother Kong, you are here again with people, aren't you afraid of being blamed by your superiors?"<
/p>
Kong Jie smiled and said: "Old Li, there are no other benefits, but there is one thing that Brother Chu may not know about."
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details."
Kong Jie said: "Old Li has a big head. If you have a big head, it is easier to attract attention, so as long as you do bad things with Lao Li, brother Chu, don't worry, the superiors will never miss me, Kong Jie."
on the head."
Li Yunlong: "…………"
Chu Yunfei was startled, then laughed heartily.
The deep feelings of comrades-in-arms displayed by Li Yunlong and Kong Jie, as well as the casualness and naturalness in their words, made Chu Yunfei feel sincerely envious.
Then the group of people rushed to the hiding place. Not far from the hiding place, Kong Jie and Li Yunlong planned the evacuation route in advance.
There is a village outside the New Second Regiment. There is a secret transfer channel in the village for everyone to evacuate quickly.
……
The other side
3 p.m.
Zhao Gang rushed to Chenjiayu with the remaining troops of the Independent Regiment except the Broadsword Team. According to the orders of his superiors, he immediately carried out defensive deployment and was responsible for the safety of the flanks of the headquarters.
When the defense deployment of the former village's conventional road into the village is basically ready.
Mumu arrived with the commando team and reported to Zhao Gang: "Report to Political Commissar Zhao that our regiment leader asked me to bring the commando team for reinforcements. Please give instructions!"
Zhao Gang naturally welcomed the reinforcements sent by Kong Jie.
After thinking about it, Zhao Gang made arrangements: "Right now, I have arranged the general deployment of Chenjiayu, but we can't defend ourselves against the Japanese regular troops, but we are afraid that the Japanese will send small unconventional combat troops to sneak attack.
Next, I will leave it to you, comrades, to defend against the small Japanese attack force."
Mu Mu responded: "Please rest assured, Political Commissar Zhao, as long as we are here, the Japanese sneak attack troops will never succeed."
Then, while surveying the surrounding terrain in Chenjiayu, Mu Mu set his sights on the cliff direction of Houcun.
Mu Mu suggested to Zhao Gang: "Political Commissar Zhao, follow our current defense deployment in Chenjiayu.
If we were a small group of Japanese sneak attack troops, the only choice would be the cliff in front of us.
This place is easily overlooked by conventional combat troops, but with the help of some climbing ropes, a well-trained troops can easily reach it."
Zhao Gang knew very well the capabilities of the commando team, and Zhao Gang valued Mu Mu's suggestions.
"In this case, I will immediately send a battalion to guard the direction of the cliff."
Mu Mu said: "To deal with the Japs' small and elite combat troops, we may not be able to gain an advantage quickly in terms of numbers.
The best way is to set a trap in advance and wait for the Japanese to jump into our ambush circle. Deploying too many troops in advance will easily attract the Japanese's attention. Once the Japanese sneak attack troops retreat and escape into the mountains, we will not be able to eliminate them if we want to.
It’s difficult.”
"Political Commissar Zhao, please send a company of troops to guard the cliff."
"Our commando team will ambush in the mountains and forests on both sides of the cliff in advance and provide artillery support at any time. If the Japanese really use a small force to attack, we will try to annihilate them in one fell swoop."
"Okay!" Zhao Gang responded. In the professional combat field of the commando team, he has no doubts about employing people.
When making specific ambush arrangements, Mu Mu arranged the commando team in the forest on the right side of the cliff to maintain an appropriate distance.
Then came the deployment of the eight M2 60mm mortars brought this time.
In this regard, Mu Mu arranged a team of two people, responsible for one artillery, to build a mortar position in advance. This time, in order to ensure the intensity of firepower, eight artillery clusters were used.
Ye Min explained this before leaving.
This time, the best way to deal with the elite sneak attack troops of the Japanese is to cover them with firepower and deploy in advance. When the Japanese sneak attack troops enter the attack point of the artillery position, a round of firepower will cover them, and they can easily kill the enemy and complete the mission.<
/p>
This tactic was perfectly demonstrated when the Japanese attacked Niukou Village.
Dozens of elite little devils were reduced to rubble in the blink of an eye.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"After the Japs appear, you follow my orders and be ready to fire at any time to cover the little Japs with firepower. This time, no Japs can be allowed to escape!"
The wood is arranged like this.
……
……
Push forward a few hours.
In Taiyuan City, Japanese commander Yoshio Shinozuka personally saw off the battlefield observation group.
Before leaving, Yoshio Shinozuka personally straightened the collar of his beloved general, "Yamamoto-kun, can you complete the beheading operation this time, show the style that a special agent team should have, and complete the special operations you have carried out in the three armed forces for many years?"
Your long-cherished wish to promote depends on this trip. I wish you a safe journey!"
"Hi, thank you General!"
A dozen military transport trucks, carrying more than a hundred Japanese officers from the battlefield observation group, as well as Yamamoto and his special agents, set off towards the predetermined location.
Looking at the direction in which the motorcade was gradually disappearing, Yoshio Shinozuka's eyes were full of expectation.
...In the bumpy carriage, Hattori Naoomi met his former classmate who was studying at Army University.
When he was studying in the military academy, Yamamoto's grades were much better than Hattori's. When he graduated, Hattori thought that his classmate would leave him far behind in terms of career.
Today, when we meet again, this outstanding classmate from back then is still just a colonel leading a small combat unit of more than 100, but his collar badge has already been decorated with a dazzling general star.
This inevitably made Hattori Naoomi subconsciously raise his head when facing his former classmate.
Yamamoto's face remained stern, and the two of them only exchanged a few words.
"Yamamoto-kun, I heard that your special agent team will cooperate with Tiejun's mopping up tactics this time?"
"Hi!"
"Are you still holding on to your original ideas and preparing to continue studying your special tactics?"
This time, Yamamoto remained silent.
"The mainstream is to fight in large corps. Yamamoto-kun, when will you understand this truth?"
Hattori Naoomi snorted coldly as he spoke, unwilling to pay any more attention to his stubborn classmate.
The convoy continued to move. Along the route of the convoy, the four brigades of the Japanese army swept away the army. They had already conducted reconnaissance and sweep of the entire area one step ahead.
Therefore, Yamamoto and the Japanese officers of the battlefield observation group never worried about their safety during this trip.
During the journey, Yamamoto, who was cautious in character, was worried that the convoy's continued movement would reveal the whereabouts of the special agent team, so he took the special agent team out of the car in advance and started traveling according to his established interspersed curve.
After Yamamoto left, a Japanese colonel said: "I heard that Mr. Yamamoto will cooperate with Tiegun's sweep this time and will behead the Eighth Route Army headquarters in the Taihang base area."
"With only a few dozen people in his team, can he really succeed?"
Hattori Naoomi sneered: "Idiot, since the war against China, we have fought against the Eighth Route Army too many times. Is that an army that will be captured without help if its headquarters is destroyed?"
"The battle of the large corps will completely eliminate the effective strength of the Eighth Route Army. This is the correct way to stabilize public security."
In the atmosphere full of the smell of gunpowder, no one spoke to anger the major general. A group of Japanese officers continued to move forward in the bumpy carriage.
……
……
In the front line of the newly advanced Japanese battlefield observation group, the Japanese 4th and 9th brigades continued to advance towards the defense area of the Eighth Route Army's Iron Triangle.
After entering the Iron Triangle defense area, especially after entering the independent regiment's defense area, the Japanese officers were extremely vigilant.
This place holds too many nightmare memories for them.
Especially the Fourth Independent Mixed Brigade, which was once directly disabled in the base area of the independent regiment.
The fourth brigade has now been re-established after receiving additional reinforcements.
In order to eradicate the independent regiment, the Japanese army successively mobilized many troops in this base area.
But all of them failed miserably.
But the troublesome thing is that the defense area of this independent regiment is located at the crucial gateway to the Taihang base area, and it is impossible to bypass it.
Therefore, after entering the defense zone of the Independent Regiment, the Japanese officers of the Fourth Brigade and the Ninth Brigade immediately ordered to be extra alert and to be alert at all times to sneak attacks by the Eighth Route Army troops.
As a result, what made the little devils dumbfounded was that they were tentatively moving forward, even letting engineers go ahead to check whether there were any mines along the way.
I walked for more than two hours, but still didn't see half of the Eighth Route Army.
Not even half of the villagers in the village were seen. The entire village seemed to have been evacuated, and not a single person could be seen in the dead silence.
"Nani, what is going on? Did the people here and the Eighth Route Army hear the news and move ahead of time?"
A Japanese squadron leader in the vanguard expressed doubts about this.
After the news was passed to the temporary headquarters of the accompanying army behind the Japs, the Japs officers discussed for a while and finally decided to move forward cautiously, strengthen vigilance, and continue to advance.
In this way, the Japanese troops passed through the guerrilla zones of the Independence Regiment and some villages along the way, approaching the hinterland of the Independence Regiment's base...
