In the early morning of the next day, when Wang Xuexin was busy directing airport personnel to repair the runway of Liyuan Airport, Chen Songyong came to Wang Xuexin with a telegram and said: "Batalion Commander, I feel that something is wrong with the Japanese!"
"Oh!" Wang Xuexin stopped what he was doing, rubbed his frozen hands, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Look, battalion commander!" Chen Songyong handed over the telegram and said: "The Japanese seem to be preparing for a decisive battle with our army at the Daqingshan Steel Plant. We have detected that their air defense troops are reinforcing toward the steel plant, and there are many others.
The car was covered with canvas, and the intelligence officers estimated that it was the enemy's 'high fire'!"
Wang Xuexin took the telegram and read it, and then he and Chen Songyong walked to the underground headquarters on the side of the airport... It was actually an air-raid shelter, or a tunnel. Although it was supported by logs, as long as it was not directly hit by a Japanese bomb,
Basically there will be no problems.
The air in the tunnel is very turbid. This is because the construction time is limited and there is no rush to improve the ventilation system. However, it is much warmer than outside.
Wang Xuexin and Chen Songyong crawled along the bend for a while and arrived at the headquarters, which was several square meters square.
There was a light on in the headquarters, a bed and a table built with shell boxes. A large-scale map was spread out on the table, and several staff officers were busy sorting out intelligence and documents inside.
Wang Xuexin went to the stop in front of the map, and Chen Songyong immediately drew a route on the map: "This, this, and this, these two are the marching routes of the enemy's air defense forces. It is estimated that each has an air defense wing. This is likely to be
Preliminary estimates are that there are at least fifty 'high fire' missiles along the march route of the 'high fire'. The deployment location is still unclear!"
This is the characteristic of the Eighth Route Army's intelligence system.
Eighth Route Army intelligence personnel are located in every city and village. It can be said that wherever there are Chinese people, there are Eighth Route Army intelligence personnel.
Therefore, as long as the Japs are mobile troops on the highway, they cannot escape the eyes of the Eighth Route Army.
However, these Japanese troops should not have reached their destination at this time, so it is impossible to know their final location.
However, this time Wang Xuexin was wrong.
Chen Songyong added with a solemn look: "The reason why our army failed to learn the final location of these Japanese troops is because the Japanese cleared out all the civilians within a hundred miles east of the steel plant!"
Wang Xuexin was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and looked at Chen Songyong in disbelief: "Clear everything? What do you mean?"
Chen Songyong sighed and said helplessly: "The young and strong people who can do labor will be taken to do hard work in repairing fortifications. The old Confucian women and children who cannot do labor will be set on fire with the village..."
Then Wang Xuexin understood that it was actually burning, killing and looting.
There must be at least more than 100,000 people in that area within a hundred miles, and they were "emptied out" with just such an order?
Just to prevent the information from reaching the ears of the Eighth Route Army?
Wang Xuexin couldn't believe what he heard, but at the same time he also realized that it was impossible for the Japanese to take the lives of Chinese people seriously. Such cases were not rare during World War II, but he had never been able to do so since he came from modern times.
Get used to this.
Wang Xuexin gritted his teeth, clenched his fist and punched the table hard, which frightened the surrounding staff officers and communications soldiers to stop what they were doing and look at Wang Xuexin.
Zhang Zongping stepped forward and said: "Batalion Commander, let's take advantage of the fact that the Japanese have not yet regained their footing and drive them out with all our strength!"
Others were also filled with indignation and rushed to say:
"Yes, battalion commander! Let's pursue the victory!"
"The Japanese are so hateful. We must eliminate them to avenge our fellow villagers!"
…
Wang Xuexin said nothing.
He understands that as a commander, you cannot be emotional.
For example, at this moment, after knowing that the Japanese have killed so many people, the emotional approach is to avenge these fellow villagers and then launch an indiscriminate attack on the Japanese.
But this is obviously not advisable.
The Japanese were already well prepared at the steel plant, waiting for the Eighth Route Army to break in.
As a commander, you should be calm and even cold-blooded. When commanding operations, you should temporarily put aside any hatred between the country and the family, and then you can objectively analyze the enemy's situation instead of being blinded by hatred.
After thinking about it, Wang Xuexin ordered: "Order the troops to postpone the attack on the steel plant!"
Even Chen Songyong was surprised by this. He looked at Wang Xuexin in surprise and said: "Batalion Commander, this..."
Wang Xuexin did not give Chen Songyong time to question, and only ordered in a firm tone: "Obey the order!"
"Yes!" Chen Songyong responded and conveyed the order.
Then Wang Xuexin looked at the map silently, then frowned and touched his pocket. It took him a long time to find an empty cigarette case.
Zhang Zongping quickly handed over a cigarette and lit it for Wang Xuexin.
Wang Xuexin took a deep breath and felt better.
The situation in front of him was something Wang Xuexin did not expect.
In fact, it was beyond Wang Xuexin's expectation that the Japanese had "man-operated missiles". From then on, Wang Xuexin just relied on his own wisdom to confront the Japanese.
Wang Xuexin could easily defeat Okamura Neji before. To be honest, he used some "cheating" methods... He is a modern man and knows how the situation will develop in the future, that is, he knows what Okamura Neji will do next.
So you can deploy it calmly.
However, with the development of equipment on both sides of the enemy and ourselves, some battle situations are now deviating from the track of history.
For example, the Japs in history did not have any "human-operated missiles". Even the "Kamikaze" and "Sakura Bomb" were developed at a later stage and were used to defend the homeland and target Eagle Sauce.
But now, the Japs have developed it in advance and are targeting the Eighth Route Army.
This seems normal, because when China invents many new equipment to deal with the Japs, the Japs will never be willing to collapse or admit defeat. They will also rack their brains and try their best to find ways to improve their equipment.
Hence the current situation.
At this time, Wang Xuexin can no longer use the "cheating" method to gain the upper hand...
"Battal Commander!" When Wang Xuexin was deep in thought, Chen Songyong stepped forward and said, "I think the Japanese are doing this mainly because they want to compete with our army for air supremacy. Why should we be afraid of them? Even if the Japanese have 'people with high firepower', we
We can still use the previous method, which is to build a few more temporary airports to defeat the enemy's conspiracy, right?"
Wang Xuexin shook his head and replied: "You mean to build an airport on Daqing Mountain?"
Chen Songyong was stunned as soon as these words came out. It is indeed not easy to build an airport on Daqing Mountain.
Then Wang Xuexin added: "What's more, the Daqingshan area is very suitable for guerrillas and the special forces are hidden. Do you think the Japanese will do nothing?"
