After listening to Yang Mingzhi's words, Yevlov's interest was also aroused.
He asked: "Are you saying that the enemy's purpose of logging is to clear the forest as much as possible."
"That's right, specifically, it means to completely clear out a space long enough so that their machine guns can completely cover it with firepower."
It sounded reasonable, and Yevlov asked again: "If this is the case, the enemy may continue to cut down trees until they are within the range of their artillery!"
"That's impossible." Yang Mingzhi shook his head. He already understood a little bit about the German army's intentions.
The airdrop will only happen in the past few days, and it is best not to cause more trouble during this period.
From the current point of view, Balzen's troops were not only exposed, but the German army's reaction was more extreme than before. To describe them in one word, it is frightened. So they desperately cut down trees to make a wide plain appear in front of their defense line.
In order to build more complex anti-infantry facilities.
Yevlov has already walked to the map wall, staring at the road occupied by the enemy. Not far to the south is the German position. The location has been marked with a pencil. After a series of reconnaissance, its general outline
The Soviet army already knew.
He couldn't help but sigh: "The enemy is really scared, or maybe we are too elusive! They must not dare to enter the forest rashly again. They lost hundreds of people in the recent firefight. []"
"That's right. To be honest, I don't like killing prisoners. The two hundred people captured by Balzen were traitors to the Soviet army, so they are not simple prisoners. It doesn't matter if they are all shot. It's just that I feel a little regretful."
Yang Mingzhi said casually.
"What are you regretting?" Yevlov quickly turned his head, "Do you have anything to say?"
"How is that possible? I just regret that before Balzen took action, he at least asked those people to take off their clothes and then wipe them out. Now that the clothes are damaged, we can't reuse them."
"It fits your style very well." Yevlov clapped his hands consciously.
Yang Mingzhi shook his head with a wry smile: "We are so poor. We still have to do dirty and unlucky things like stripping dead people of their clothes, otherwise many people will get cold and sick."
The majority of the current officers and soldiers of the 284th Division are farmers in the countryside. The long-term poverty life has made the people have a strong sense of frugality, and because they are afraid of poverty, they will never let go of the opportunity to plunder. Yang Mingzhi certainly hopes that
The superiors can send brand-new military supplies, but everything is a luxury. The only way to obtain supplies is to produce them yourself, and the only way is to rob them by any means.
Fortunately, he doesn't have to worry that his people will be like some inferior guerrillas that do exist, robbing ordinary people in the name of expropriation, and doing things similar to the German army.
Yevlov returned to his desk and sat down, raised his head and asked: "What should we do now? If the enemy wants to clear the firing range of automatic weapons, how are you going to respond?"
"How to deal with it?" This question hit the point, and Yang Mingzhi couldn't help but pick up his chin.
Looking at his appearance, he knew that the problem could not be solved instantly. Yevlov said: "I think you should think more about it, my comrade chief of staff. If you have a new plan, you can gather people and hold a meeting.
"
"Okay! Let me think about it. Anyway, before the airdrop arrives, I have to do my business."
…
The airdrop was about to arrive. The soldiers and civilians stopped what they were doing and rushed to the areas they were responsible for in full gear in order to receive the supplies falling from the sky as quickly as possible, as well as a large number of paratroopers. For a time, the collective farms were empty, except for the key
The personnel continued to stay here. However, the originally inaccessible forest became lively, and they could not withdraw until the airdrop plan was over.
In fact, for the majority of soldiers, they can go into battle at any time. In order to deal with possible obstruction by the German army, thousands of soldiers have been prepared to go directly north.
Yang Mingzhi no longer worries about the airdrop. Liu Debalev and Yelentina are directly responsible for this matter.
Now his mind is completely focused on dealing with the enemy's crazy logging, and he must find a way to prevent their plan from being implemented well!
So, what else can be done? After much deliberation, Yang Mingzhi came up with a very simple and crude way - don't be cowardly, just do it! You can't go south just because it may anger the Germans and make them angry. You have to harass them for a long time.
They focused on attacking those who cut down trees and thoroughly implemented the guidelines for guerrilla warfare.
"Since they are probably cutting down trees to clear the machine gun range, then I will let snipers who can carry out long-range precision strikes harass them! Yes! Just do it!" Yang Mingzhi slapped the table excitedly, so who can lead this special attack?
Action? Natasha of course!
Dear! It’s been a while since you’ve been on a military mission. Are your rifle and yourself thirsty? You have been a shooting instructor at the youth camp for a long time, and you also go to the hospital to help take care of the sick and sick, and learn medical knowledge.
.In fact, you still hope to continue killing enemies and set a new record!
Yang Mingzhi couldn't help but think about it as his fingers tapped on the table.
The people coming and going in the division did not disturb his thoughts, and everyone could walk more slowly. Until Yelentina came back carelessly, panting, taking off her coat and hanging it on the wall.
"I'm really exhausted! The airdrop had better come here quickly. Arranging people to enter the forest is really tiring! If this continues, my legs may break!"
Yang Mingzhi asked casually: "What? Our municipal committee is going to collapse from exhaustion?"
Jelentina was stunned. She really didn't notice that Yang Mingzhi stayed at the division headquarters? She turned around and said casually: "I heard something from the division commander. Those crazy Germans are cutting down trees like crazy and even using explosives."
Have they all been used? Do you think they are clearing the firing range of their weapons, so that if we attack them in the future, we will be exposed in advance and be blown away by their superior firepower in advance?!"
"Indeed!" Yang Mingzhi nodded.
"This is how to do!"
She spoke very loudly, and it was obvious that she was worried about the current special situation, so this was a bit neurotic.
Yang Mingzhi didn't speak for now, but waved his hand to let her calm down, and then take a breath and drink some water.
"The enemy is just logging, I'm afraid this is the behavior of their entire defense line. We currently have no ability to stop them, but we can harass them. You came just in time, and I have some countermeasures. After dinner, we will come to the division headquarters for a meeting
, if you don’t mind, please call Besica and Natasha together.”.
