"Such confidential information, even within the Japanese and puppet troops, can only be seen by officers above the rank of colonel. Wang Ping, how did you get it?" Looking at the telegram handed over by Wang Ping, the commander-in-chief couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Li Wen brought it back. I don't know the specific action process yet!" Wang Ping quickly replied.
The boss frowned and thought for a few seconds before replying: "Li Wen, I remember that I went to Peking with you!"
"Yes, Chief!" Wang Ping affirmed.
The commander-in-chief continued to sigh with emotion: "What a talent! After this operation is over, you must bring him over. I want to see him!"
Then he said to the deputy commander next to him: "This information is all about the Japanese attack on us this time. Please forward it to the military region and base area immediately!"
"As for our safety, this is the territory of the New Group. You, Wang Ping, are the master, and we all obey you!"
"I agree!" the deputy commander affirmed: "We will be responsible for the fighting outside, and Comrade Wang Ping will be responsible for our security work. That's it!"
Wang Ping immediately replied: "Chief, this assassination order has just been issued by Neji Okamura, and it will definitely not be carried out in a short time!"
"And the ten kilometers around the headquarters are full of our security troops, patrols, and light and dark sentries. The possibility of the devils trying to assassinate the leaders here is absolutely zero!"
"As long as the leaders don't go out casually, I will absolutely guarantee everyone's safety!"
"In half a month, we will announce the military parade to the outside world. By then, there is a 90% chance that the Japanese will choose to take action on the military parade~"
"So I decided to use the military parade as an opportunity to completely eliminate the Japanese intelligence network and remaining forces in southwestern Shanxi!"
The commander-in-chief responded directly: "You are the master, and you can do whatever you say!"
Two days later, while Wang Ping and Cheng Xiao were hiding in the headquarters studying the plan to attack Taiyuan, good news was sent to them by the commander-in-chief.
The Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base area was the first to attack, and they fought and won consecutively. They successively killed a reinforced brigade and a mixed detachment that the Japanese army broke into the base area, annihilating more than 3,500 Japanese troops!
More importantly, based on the intelligence sent back by Li Wen, they took the initiative and captured a Japanese logistics supply base with lightning speed, seized a large amount of equipment, supplies and ammunition, and also killed two Japanese supplementary squadrons!
"The enemy mopping up troops that entered the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base area are finished!" Wang Ping replied with a smile on his face!
"It's definitely over!" Cheng Xiao added.
"The chief of staff is now the temporary head of the military region. With him commanding the troops, as long as he enters our base area, he will have to shed his skin even if he can't afford it!"
"Old commander, if nothing unexpected happens, as soon as this counter-mopping up is over, the commander-in-chief will order each military region to launch a local counterattack to attract the attention of the Japanese North China Front and cover our raid on Taiyuan City!"
"We need to determine how to attack Taiyuan City as soon as possible!"
"It's confirmed!" Wang Ping nodded and confirmed.
"Based on the intelligence sent back by Li Wen, my idea is to try to annihilate the Japanese and puppet troops in Taiyuan City outside the city and reduce the damage to Taiyuan City!"
"Think about it, if there are only 2,000 Japanese puppet troops left in Nuoda's Taiyuan City, even if they are all Japs, our hundreds of special forces lurking in the city can kill them quietly and win a complete victory.
Taiyuan City, seize all the materials hoarded by the Japanese army in Taiyuan City."
"According to Li Wen's report, there are four large arsenals in Taiyuan City, and there are five or six small arsenals!"
"These arsenals have been very busy recently. Every day, a steady stream of weapons and ammunition is transported into Taiyuan City by train from the north, and then stored in these arsenals!"
"Preliminary estimates indicate that the weapons stored in these arsenals alone are enough to form an army of 30,000 people!"
"The Japanese have fewer and fewer domestic reserve troops. In order to ensure their military superiority, the only option is to form a large-scale puppet army."
"So I judge that these weapons are used by the Japanese to form a puppet army, and they must be captured no matter what!"
"There are also more than a dozen large material warehouses, a weapons repair shop, an ammunition production factory, and a light weapons production factory! There are treasures in them, and they must be taken down intact no matter what!"
Cheng Xiao shook his head and replied: "Easier said than done!"
"Judging from this city defense map, the Taiyuan City wall is the last fortification and the strongest fortification used by the Japanese army to defend Taiyuan City. The Japanese army will definitely not leave the last fortification unused and go out of the city to compete with us!"
"This is indeed a big problem!" Wang Ping also frowned!
"But there must be a solution. Lao Cheng, think about it. If we have a troop assault all the way to the outside of Taiyuan City. But other troops are still far away from the wall of Taiyuan City and are advancing step by step. You say,
What will happen to the Japanese defenders!"
"Find a way to kill this assault force!" Cheng Xiao frowned and replied seriously.
Then he pointed at the map and analyzed: "Look, old commander, if we have a commando team fighting all the way outside Taiyuan City, whether they continue to attack the city wall or turn around and attack the Japanese and puppet positions outside the city, they will be killed by us faster.
!”
"This is a very fatal blow to the Japanese defenders!"
"Then I will make them more deadly and equip them with a few armored vehicles, some medium-sized mortars, and heavy artillery support, so that they have the ability to break through the city wall!"
"The Japs will definitely be very anxious and kill the commandos at all costs!"
Having said this, Cheng Xiao suddenly reacted.
"Old leader, I understand what you mean!"
"Select an elite team to form a commando team and fight all the way to the outside of Taiyuan City to serve as bait!"
"The main force is attacking Taiyuan City step by step outside the city, making it impossible for the Japanese army to mobilize troops from outside the city!"
"However, this commando team must be killed. The Japanese had no choice but to mobilize troops from the city to attack our commando team."
"And our commando team can consume a large number of Japanese and puppet troops in the city in a bloody battle!"
"It's just that in this way, the casualties of the commando team will definitely be very large, and this commando team must have a very strong combat effectiveness."
"Otherwise, it is very likely that the Japanese will kill you without completing the mission!"
"Not bad!" Wang Ping affirmed.
"So I decided to let Xiao Yunshan, commander of the second battalion of the New 1st Regiment, lead the team up. This Xiao Yunshan has a flexible mind and is good at defense and attack. However, when the time comes, you will have to assign a medium-sized mortar company to him!"
"No problem!" Cheng Xiao replied seriously.
Then he added: "My independent regiment can also go up. I suggest that we directly prepare two commando teams. This can appropriately reduce the pressure on the two commando teams, and can also more thoroughly consume the Japanese and puppet troops in the city!"
"I agree~"
