Wang Ping immediately said: "Chief, I originally planned to hold a small-scale military parade and just invite the chief of the military region and some officers from the World War II region to come over!"
"Now that I hear what you say, I think the scale of this military parade should be as big as possible!"
"The scale of the military parade must be at least 5,000 people, including all the existing arms of our Eighth Route Army, such as infantry, artillery, cavalry, automobile troops, air defense troops, baggage troops, armored troops..."
"In addition, it would be best to call over the government troops, the World War II Zone, the Shanxi-Sui Army, and some officials from Chongqing, so that they can truly feel the power of our Eighth Route Army, value us, and fear us!"
"Well said!" the deputy commander shouted with a smile on his face.
"Comrade Wang Ping, I will give you one night and come up with a plan tomorrow morning. If appropriate, I will contact Yan'an as soon as possible and request Yan'an's approval. It is best to invite the chief of Yan'an to come and participate in this military parade!"
Wang Ping immediately replied: "Please rest assured, chief, I promise to complete the task!"
Then he added: "If a large-scale military parade can really be held in southwestern Shanxi, I am sure that our Eighth Route Army will not only become famous all over the world, but also scare all the domestic armies."
"Let them know that our Eighth Route Army is no longer the same Eighth Route Army it was when we went on an expedition a few years ago!"
"If you want to take advantage of our Eighth Route Army and deal with it, you must consider in advance whether they can withstand the exposure of our Eighth Route Army!"
"Well said!" Commander Chen also shouted with excitement on his face.
"What bothers me the most is that the Jinsui Army and the government forces call us Tubal. Our Eighth Route Army is not even afraid of little devils, so why should we be looked down upon by them!"
"It's time for them to get to know a brand new Eighth Route Army!"
The deputy commander made a decisive decision: "Then it's settled~"
"Comrade Wang Ping, you work overtime tonight and give me the plan tomorrow morning!"
Wang Ping nodded, hesitated and continued: "Chief, besides the military parade, my second step is also a very bold idea!"
"However, this idea requires the cooperation of the headquarters and the Taihang Military Region!"
The deputy commander-in-chief and Commander Chen immediately became interested and stared at Wang Ping and asked.
"Keep talking!"
"The Jinsui Army now only has more than 100,000 people!"
"The total of all the main troops in our Taihang Military Region and Taiyue Military Region must be more than 100,000, and maybe more than 200,000!"
"With the addition of local troops and guerrillas, it is possible to double the strength!"
"If we disperse the Jinsui Army concentrated in southwest Shanxi to every county in Taihang and Taiyue, the divided Jinsui Army will be no match for us!"
"When the time comes, no matter which county town the Jinsui Army has stationed a regiment, we will send two regiments to watch..."
"Once there is a conflict between us and the Jinsui Army, we will be able to inflict a devastating blow to the Jinsui Army in a very short period of time!"
Commander Chen immediately reacted: "Good idea, we do the same thing every time the Japanese send out heavy troops to raid our base area!"
"Abandon the county seat and important villages and towns, leaving them to occupy and disperse their forces!"
"This method can be used to deal with the Japs. As a defeated general under the Japs, it will certainly work against the Jinsui Army!"
The deputy commander frowned and replied thoughtfully: "Okay, okay, I'm just worried that Yan Laoxi of the Jinsui Army will not be fooled so easily!"
"He is a very clever person, and he is good at calculations. If there is not enough benefit, he will definitely not be so easily fooled!"
Commander Chen also frowned. He had dealt with Yan Laoxi more than once and he knew Yan Laoxi's character fairly well.
"Yes, if it were just one or two ordinary counties, Yan Laoxi would never send troops deep into our base area."
"Then give him a big enough bait!" Now that he had laid out his thoughts, Wang Ping no longer hesitated and answered directly.
The deputy commander-in-chief and Commander Chen asked at the same time: "What kind of bait?"
"Taiyuan City!" Wang Ping replied in a surprising way.
Seeing the shocked expressions on the faces of the Deputy Commander-in-Chief and Commander Chen, Wang Ping immediately analyzed.
"Taiyuan City is stationed with a military headquarters and a garrison brigade of the Japanese army, plus a brigade of puppet troops, with a total strength of more than 10,000 troops!"
"Coupled with the strong fortifications of Taiyuan City, we may not be able to win even if we concentrate three times the force advantage!"
"But we also have our own advantages!"
"The two heavy artillery regiments I am preparing to hand over to the headquarters must be powerful siege weapons that the Japanese would not even think of even if they were killed!"
"With their participation in the battle, the permanent and semi-permanent firepower points built by the Jinsui Army and the Japanese in Taiyuan City will be ineffective!"
"The second is the strength advantage. The Japanese army in North China has just experienced a major defeat, and the losses in troops and materials are huge. And we have a basis for support. Although the losses are also very heavy, we will definitely regain our combat effectiveness faster than the Japanese. We can definitely
Without the Japanese noticing, at least 30,000 people gathered to launch a sudden attack on Taiyuan City!"
"The last one is also the most important to me. Taking Taiyuan City will be of great benefit to us!"
"The Japanese army in North China must be recuperating and replenishing their troops, weapons and ammunition. After their strength is restored, they will launch a new round of large-scale raids on our Eighth Route Army base areas!"
"Instead of waiting for the Japanese to attack every time, it is better to take the initiative, disrupt the Japanese deployment, and seize the initiative on the battlefield, just like the Hundred Regiments War back then!"
"Taiyuan is the capital of Shanxi Province, the headquarters of the Japanese army in Shanxi, and the location of the military headquarters."
"The equipment and supplies that the North China Front Army supplemented for the Japanese army in Shanxi must be hoarded in Taiyuan!"
"If we can take Taiyuan City by surprise, I am sure that the weapons and equipment captured alone will be enough for us to form a force of at least 20,000 people!"
"As for other supplies, if nothing else, the good stuff hoarded by the Japanese Chamber of Commerce in Taiyuan will be enough for our Eighth Route Army to use for a long time!"
"There is also a small arsenal in Taiyuan. Although it cannot produce heavy weapons, it can produce ordinary rifles, pistols, light machine guns, heavy machine guns, bullets, and mortar shells!"
"If we take down Taiyuan City, all these equipments will belong to our Eighth Route Army!"
"It still has influence. If we recapture Taiyuan City from the Japanese, our Eighth Route Army will be famous all over the country, and even in the world. This will show the powerful combat effectiveness of our Eighth Route Army better than a military parade!"
"The last thing is funds. If we take Taiyuan City, we will definitely seize huge funds that no one can imagine!"
"In addition, with Taiyuan City in our hands, we can also get a lot of benefits from Yan Laoxi of the Jin-Sui Army!"
"A Linfen City exchanged at least 2 million oceans of funds and supplies from him. Taiyuan City is countless times bigger than Linfen City, and it is also Yan Laoxi's hometown. No matter how you say it, you can get at least 5 million.
of oceans and supplies!”
