"I plan to give them a false target and let them attack and cause trouble!" Wang Ping replied.
"All the declared military parade locations are false targets. After the military parade begins, all participants in the military parade will be directly transported by car to the real military parade site, and then the military parade will begin!"
"During the entire process, various preparations were carried out simultaneously at the real parade ground and the false targets. Except for the three of us and the commander-in-chief, no one else knew the existence of the real and false targets!"
"At that time, I will dispatch three more battalions to prepare a pocket formation at the false target for all the Japanese agents who want to cause trouble, and annihilate them in one fell swoop!"
The deputy commander was very satisfied and ordered: "Okay, let's do as you say?"
"According to what Commander Chen just said, you, the deputy commander, are responsible for the specific work. Commander Chen and I will help you!"
After discussing some more details, Wang Ping was just about to leave when the communications staff rushed over again!
"Chief, urgent call from Yan'an!"
"The telegram sent to Taiyuan must have been answered!" The deputy commander received the telegram anxiously.
After glancing at the contents of the telegram, he ordered Wang Ping who was about to leave: "Comrade Wang Ping, don't leave yet, this matter has something to do with you too!"
"Didn't you propose attacking Taiyuan yesterday? I discussed it with Commander Chen and reported it to Yan'an, and Yan'an agreed!"
"Not only that, Yan'an also has a proposal!"
"In addition to using a military parade to confuse the Japanese soldiers and catch the Japanese army in Taiyuan by surprise, we can also launch a large-scale battle in other directions, and then use the method of attacking from the east and the west to catch the Japanese soldiers by surprise and capture the city of Taiyuan!"
"Yan'an is still thoughtful!" Commander Chen said with emotion.
"With the military parade and the attacks from the east to the west, the little Japanese never imagined that we would take the opportunity to attack Taiyuan!"
"Chief, what else?"
The deputy commander did not hide anything: "The arrangements of the troops and commanders!"
"If the attack on Taiyuan is to be successful, reinforcements are very important. Therefore, our troops operating around Taiyuan not only cannot be transferred away, but must be strengthened!"
"This is Yan'an's intention, so to attack Taiyuan City, we can only mobilize troops from farther away!"
"Yan'an basically agreed with our report: a new regiment, a brigade directly under the Taiyue Military Region, and an independent division from the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base area were secretly dispatched to the area around Taiyuan. When the time came, they launched with lightning speed
Attack and hit the Japanese and puppet garrison in Taiyuan until they are caught off guard!"
"In addition, Yan'an proposes that Comrade Wang Ping serve as the commander-in-chief of the former enemy's attack on Taiyuan! Comrade Cheng Xiao, commander of the independent division of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, serves as deputy commander and unified command of the entire siege battle!"
"Commander Liu serves as the commander-in-chief of the entire campaign, mainly commanding troops from the Taiyue and Taihang military regions to provide reinforcements!"
"Through the reinforcements, a large number of Japanese and puppet reinforcements were consumed. At the same time, the command troops launched a local counterattack in Shanxi to expand the base area!"
"The Jizhong Military Region and the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region each concentrated the strength of at least ten regiments to launch a brigade counterattack before the war. They relied on the attention of the Japanese and puppet troops in North China and tried to attract the Japanese puppet troops to Jizhong and Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei.
This area will reduce the pressure on us to attack Taiyuan!"
"If possible, Shandong, northwestern Shanxi... several military regions can take action!"
Commander Chen directly exclaimed: "Boss, according to the strategy proposed by Yan'an, attacking Taiyuan is not a battle at all, but a battle!"
"That's what Yan'an means!" the deputy commander affirmed!
"If we want to fight, let's fight hard. This battle will completely destroy the prestige of our Eighth Route Army!"
"After the last dispersal, the Japanese army in North China has lost many troops. If we can kill tens of thousands more of them through this large-scale counterattack, the Japanese army on the North China Front will not be able to regain its strength for at least a year. By then, the entire North China will become our base!
"
After saying that, the deputy commander stared at the shocked Wang Ping and asked: "You are the commander-in-chief of the siege named by Yan'an. What are your thoughts and opinions?"
Wang Ping hasn’t come to his senses yet!
The shock that the deputy commander-in-chief gave me was so great that I couldn't digest it in a short period of time.
To attack Taiyuan, a proposal he made yesterday, after being discussed by the deputy commander-in-chief and Yan'an in front of him, directly evolved into a large-scale battle. This was something Wang Ping never expected.
Shocked, he was stunned for a long time before he realized: "I completely agree with Yan'an's proposal!"
"It's just that the commander-in-chief of the siege is too important. I'm worried that I don't have that ability!"
"I suggest that the commander should be the commander-in-chief of the siege. The new regiment, as well as the brigades directly under the military region, are all your troops, commander. It is perfect for you to serve as the commander-in-chief!"
"Bullshit~" Commander Chen retorted before the deputy commander opened his mouth.
"What's wrong with you being the commander-in-chief? You're worried that the brigade directly under your control won't cooperate with you and won't obey your orders. If that's the case, I'll immediately remove him from the posts of brigade commander and brigade political commissar!"
"Also, you have fought in Taiyuan and have experience in siege operations."
"Third, the new regiment is well-equipped, and its combat methods are obviously different from other troops. How about letting me suddenly take over the command of the new regiment and lose the battle because I am not familiar with the combat methods!"
"Fourth, if I remember correctly, the independent division Cheng Xiao is your old partner. You are the commander-in-chief and he is the deputy commander. The cooperation between you will definitely be better than that of an outsider like me!"
"I know what you are worried about? Isn't it just about seniority and level? Let me tell you, if you command the troops to capture Taiyuan City, then you will have all the qualifications and levels!"
The deputy commander affirmed: "I agree with your commander's opinion!"
"Yan'an's decision to appoint you, the commander of the regiment, as the commander-in-chief of the siege must have been carefully considered and discussed. Please obey the order!"
Wang Ping could only compromise, hesitated for a moment and continued to ask: "What about the military parade?"
"I definitely won't be able to leave this side of the military parade. I won't be able to leave until the military parade is over."
"And such an important battle in Taiyuan City cannot be commanded remotely!"
The deputy commander also frowned.
A minute later, he suddenly suggested: "Then let's make a time difference!"
"From here to Taiyuan, you can get there in a day and a night at high speed. After the military parade is over, you can immediately rush outside Taiyuan City to command the siege!"
"During the military parade, there will definitely be many generals and important officials coming from Chongqing and various war zones! After the military parade, I will find a way to let them stay for a few more days, waiting for your Taiyuan battle to start, so that they can see with their own eyes how our Eighth Route Army takes
Those who went to Taiyuan will further demonstrate to them the powerful combat effectiveness of our Eighth Route Army!"
