"Delay all the Japanese and puppet troops in Yangquan for at least three days. During this period, the Japanese and puppet troops in Yangquan cannot transfer any soldiers outside!"
After reading the telegram, Captain Chen shouted directly: "This is an impossible task. Commander, you might as well just kill me! Political Commissar, how can we fight with so many Japanese and puppet troops with only this little wealth?
, and also hold them back!”
"It is indeed very difficult, and writing a single operation is completely a war of attrition. The little wealth our team has worked hard to accumulate will definitely be completely consumed in the next three days!"
At this point, the political commissar, who never questioned the orders of his superiors, felt a little bit incomprehensible this time.
Staring at the detachment leader, he asked: "Old Chen, do you think there will be any problems with this order?"
"The headquarters and the military region have never supported us in confronting the Japs head-on and engaging in positional warfare. Why did they do the opposite this time and require us to take the initiative to attack the county town heavily defended by the Japs? This has never happened before!"
"Would you like to send a telegram to the military division to confirm this order?"
"This is related to the lives of thousands of cadres and soldiers, and the future of our team!"
"No need!" Captain Chen shook his head and replied.
At this time, although his brows were wrinkled, there was not much difference from before.
However, my mind has slowly woken up.
Such an important combat order must have been reviewed repeatedly before being issued by the military region, and there will definitely be no problems.
Since there is no problem with the order and the battle order from the headquarters is so unexpected, there is only one situation.
After a pair of eyes quickly shot out two rays of light, he stared at the political commissar and analyzed: "Political commissar, if I guessed correctly, the headquarters must be planning a major military action. As for the specific action, I can't guess. But,
It must be related to the strength of the Japanese troops, and the target of the operation is around us. Otherwise, the headquarters and military divisions would not have given us a fatal order, requiring us not to remember casualties and to hold off the Japanese and puppet troops in Yangquan for three days!"
"Old Chen, you are right!" The political commissar slowly calmed down.
"In addition to the order, the military district also sent us 100,000 rounds of rifle bullets and 1,000 grenades. It is obvious that the military district also knows that we are going to fight a war of attrition..."
"A war of attrition?" Captain Chen shook his head in surprise and objected.
"On the surface, this is indeed a war of attrition. However, if it is well laid out, it may not be impossible to fight well."
"The headquarters gave us three days, but it did not stipulate how we should fight. I think we can definitely make a fuss about this!"
At this time, the advantage of the detachment leader's understanding of the enemy's situation in advance becomes apparent.
"According to investigation, the total number of Japanese and puppet troops in Yangquan exceeds 13,000. Except for Yangquan, the others are scattered in the surrounding four counties and strongholds. If we can find a way to kill two to three thousand Japanese and puppet troops, then the number of Japanese and puppet troops in Yangquan will be
The Japanese and puppet troops will feel that they are lacking in strength. Then it will be much easier to hold them back!"
"Old Chen, you have an idea!" the political commissar replied in agreement.
Captain Chen did not hesitate and replied thoughtfully: "A little! The time set by the headquarters is three days from tomorrow. If we can kill at least 2,000 of them tonight, we will be able to kill them in the next few days."
If we use up one or two thousand of them, the battle will be much easier to fight!"
"Also, if we can fight a battle to annihilate the Japanese tonight, we can also seize a large number of weapons and ammunition, which will also be of great help in the following war of attrition!"
"I completely agree!" the political commissar replied without thinking.
Then he stared at the detachment leader and asked: "It is not impossible to fight a war of annihilation! However, we must attract the Japanese and puppet troops. If they stick to the county seat, we can't do anything even if we concentrate all our artillery!"
"Then besiege the city and call for reinforcements!" the detachment leader blurted out.
Then he pointed to a point on the map and said: "Let's attack here. As long as we attack here, the Japanese and puppet troops in Yangquan City will definitely send troops to rescue us, and then our chance will come!"
"Pincidate the county seat!" the political commissar shouted with his eyes lit up.
Then there was an expression of sudden realization on his face, and he analyzed with great surprise: "Pingding County is the southern gate to guard Yangquan. Once Pingding County is lost, Yangquan will be completely exposed to us. The Japanese Fourth Independent Brigade stationed in Yangquan
We will definitely not watch Pingding being occupied by us!"
"Also, the total number of Japanese and puppet troops that were pacified was only more than 1,500 people, more than 500 Japanese soldiers, and more than 1,000 puppet troops. They were not equipped with heavy weapons such as mountain running. As long as the offensive troops have strong enough offensive firepower,
Can force them to ask for help from Yangquan!"
"There is one more thing you didn't mention, political commissar!" Captain Chen added.
"It is very beneficial for us to calm down the surrounding terrain. After being attacked, only the garrison in Yangquan can provide timely reinforcements, and the garrison on other lines of defense are too far away from them. This means that we can concentrate as much troops and firepower as possible to fight
Annihilation battle of the Japanese reinforcements, kill the Japanese reinforcements in one battle!"
The political commissar's tense expression finally relaxed and he directly supported without saying a word: "Old Chen, give the order!"
"In addition, I have just contacted the local troops active in Yangquan. They have a regiment of troops, but their firepower is a bit lacking. Lao Chen, you can take them into consideration when assigning tasks. The military division's order said,
During the Tiantian battle, all guerrillas and local troops in Yangquan will be under our command!"
"Very good, then there will be no surprises in tonight's battle!" The detachment leader's smile grew wider, and he replied with a confident expression.
At the Japanese Army Headquarters in Pingding County, the commander, Major Harada, was sitting behind his desk with a secretive look on his face, admiring a vase just given to him by the commander of the Imperial Army.
A few months ago, Harada was a captain, a captain in the field force, and led more than a hundred subordinates to make great achievements on the frontal battlefield.
Finally, he was promoted to Major due to his military exploits.
But because he had no one above him to speak to him, he was directly transferred from the field division to the current independent mixed fourth brigade and became the captain of the local garrison force.
At first, Harada was very dissatisfied and in a bad mood. He lost his temper with the people below him every day.
However, as the commander of the Imperial Association continued to give himself some antiques snatched from the people, and from time to time he also sent himself a beautiful woman, or gold and silver coins, Harada's dissatisfaction with his superiors was gradually replaced by money.
I wasted away with the beauty, and started to enjoy this kind of fire.
Therefore, Major Harada was very excited every time he sent troops out to raid the city.
Because both the squadron leader and the commander of the Imperial Association Army below are very sensible. Every time they snatch gold and silver property and antique calligraphy and paintings, they have their own share.
Doing nothing, but having a steady stream of income. Perhaps only you can encounter such a good thing.
