It was very useful to Matsumoto for a general to compliment him so much.
Raise your glass and drink it all in one gulp.
However, the smile on his face didn't last long before it disappeared and was replaced by seriousness.
The brigade commander frowned and asked, "What? Matsumoto-kun, aren't you happy that we have wiped out so many Eighth Route Army troops?"
"Of course I'm happy!" Colonel Matsumoto replied, but the smile no longer appeared on his face. Instead, he frowned and explained.
"I'm thinking about the Eighth Route Army's special operations team, in the battle of Gongli Village. This special operations group not only protected the new Eighth Route Army regiment in the village to successfully break out of the encirclement, but also turned defeat into victory, wiping out nearly a brigade of the imperial army. More importantly, they also killed
I'm a special operations team!"
"With this squad, my special forces have lost more than a squadron of warriors to them."
"I must avenge this!"
The brigade commander quickly comforted him: "Matsumoto-kun, don't worry. Since the special forces are so powerful, they must be the Eighth Route Army's trump card and will not be sent out unless absolutely necessary."
"Now the Eighth Route Army must have very little rations left, and ordinary troops cannot get food from us, and they have lost soldiers and generals. In order to survive, the Eighth Route Army will definitely send out their killer weapons to steal food from us!"
"As long as you wait peacefully, Mr. Matsumoto, the Eighth Route Army Special Forces will definitely fall into the trap we carefully prepared for them like other troops!"
Colonel Matsumoto's frown did not loosen.
After drinking all the wine in the cup again, he shook his head and replied: "No, the special forces are the elite of the Eighth Route Army. They have experienced special training. They can definitely see the ordinary traps and will never be fooled! And even if they are fooled, ordinary troops will
We can’t trap them, let alone eliminate them!”
"Matsumoto-kun, what do you mean?" The brigade leader also frowned.
His troops had suffered many losses from the Eighth Route Army's special operations brigade. With the special forces present, he did not want his troops to encounter them again.
"Our real food storage point!" Colonel Matsumoto said with eyes shining.
"With the strength of the Eighth Route Army's special operations brigade, we will definitely be able to find our real grain harvesting point. I plan to lead the special forces with my own children to prepare a hair net for them at the grain harvesting warehouse. As long as they have the courage to go there, I will definitely catch them all!"
"This time, nothing can be done to make the Eighth Route Army Special Forces team slip away again!"
A team of more than a hundred people took advantage of the night to walk on the mountain road, easily evading the spies and reconnaissance troops deployed by the Japanese army outside the mountain, and left the mountain.
Huang Yuanqiang, after the expansion of the special operations team, was directly appointed by Wang Ping as the squadron leader of the first squadron of the special operations brigade.
The original first detachment of the special operations team has now become the first detachment of the first squadron of the special operations brigade! Li Wen, the original leader of the assault team, took over the position left by Huang Yuanqiang after his promotion and became the detachment leader.
After seeing the special operations brigade bypassing several Japanese checkpoints on the road and marching directly toward the county seat, getting closer and closer to the county seat, Huang Yuanqiang couldn't help but walk up to Wang Ping and ask.
"Captain, we are going to the county seat!"
Wang Ping did not answer directly, but analyzed with a thoughtful look on his face: "The Japs must have stolen millions of kilograms of grain when they came here!"
"With so much food, they can't just find a place to hide it and let us grab it. Besides, they plan to use this food to attract our main force and gather together to rape them!"
"If there are fewer troops stationed around the grain depot, even if our main force passes by, they won't be able to encircle and annihilate them!"
"Within a radius of a hundred miles, it is safe and hidden, and there are heavy Japanese and puppet troops stationed around it. Only around the county town!"
"Only when we are close to the county seat can we have a chance to find the real location of the Japs' food harvesting, rather than the trap discovered by the previous battalions!"
"I understand!" Huang Yuanqiang's face showed an expression of sudden realization.
In the end, Wang Ping chose the temporary base of the special forces team in a forest only five kilometers away from the county seat.
Standing at the highest point of the forest, Wang Ping could vaguely see the outline of the county wall with his telescope.
"Let comrades seize the time to rest and set up security posts. At dawn tomorrow, all investigators will go out and find out for me where the Japanese and puppet troops are stationed around the county, including where each infantry squad is stationed!"
Wang Ping, who was very satisfied with the situation, immediately began to issue orders.
"As for the location of the real grain depot of the Japanese, we must also investigate!"
Time passed day by day, and the map in Wang Ping's hand became more and more perfect.
Looking at the map, Wang Ping had to admit that the Japanese's plan to kill everyone was too cruel.
In order to force the Eighth Route Army to fall into the two traps prepared for Brigadier Chen, a lot of food was indeed hoarded.
Of course, the two occupations also stationed an infantry brigade of the Japanese Army and a regiment of the Imperial Army.
More importantly, the two occupied locations were not far from the county seat. Within an hour at most, the Japanese army in the county seat could dispatch at least one infantry brigade to the battlefield for reinforcements.
With fewer Eighth Route Army troops coming to grab food, the Japanese and puppet troops stationed near the traps could easily eat them.
If there are more Eighth Route Army troops coming, they can hold them back until the backup troops arrive and then gather together to attack them.
I have to say that this is a very good strategy to consume the Eighth Route Army.
The Eighth Route Army was indeed fooled, knowing it was a trap. But for the sake of food, they had no choice but to jump into it.
"Captain, we found it, we found the real food camp of the Japanese!" Suddenly, Huang Yuanqiang rushed over with a smile on his face, as if he had discovered a new world, and reported with excitement.
"There is a lot of food stored in it, at least one million catties, or even more!"
"Where?" Wang Ping's eyes shot out two very hot lights, he put the map in front of Huang Yuanqiang, stared at him and asked.
"Here!" Huang Yuanqiang quickly marked a point on the map.
"It's only three kilometers away from the county seat, and the transportation here is very good. The Japanese from the county seat can get reinforcements in just half an hour."
"In addition, a Japanese infantry brigade is stationed here. In order to ensure the concealment of food, no Imperial Army troops are stationed!"
After saying that, Huang Yuanqiang suggested with an eager expression: "Captain, how about we assemble the troops now and move to Fengling Town. We are still nearly ten kilometers away from Fengling Town, so it is very inconvenient to move!"
"
"No!" Wang Ping unexpectedly refused!
Huang Yuanqiang was stunned and was about to ask why. Wang Ping had already explained in advance: "You think too simply! The Japanese are heavily defending Fengling Town. Our special operations team only has more than a hundred people. Could it be our opponent?"
"And the Japs in the county can reach Fengling Town in half an hour. Can we end the battle in half an hour?"
"Also, don't forget the Japanese special forces, our old rivals!"
"Will they watch us snatch the food away? Not only will they not, they may also set up a net in Fengling Town to seize me after we pass.
Let’s gather together and annihilate them!”
