Chapter 683 The changing battle situation

The chief of staff's analysis is hard to hear. To put it more seriously, it has already somewhat boosted the ambitions of others and destroyed one's own prestige.

However, Wang Ping did not stop him from continuing to speak, because his analysis was all facts, and it would be hard to describe it as hitting the nail on the head.

When a new regiment is fighting, the commander cannot always hold his tail up, thinking that he is invincible, and sit back and watch the sky. Instead, he should know the enemy clearly, and only then can he win the battle.

Seeing that the two battalion commanders' faces became more solemn as they listened, and in the end they had lowered their heads and were about to lose any confidence in defeating the Japanese and puppet troops.

Wang Ping once again made a shocking reply: "The chief of staff is right. The Japanese and puppet troops who have been reinforced will indeed not divide their troops. Otherwise, they would not stop at Tianxin Town and stand still. However, we can find a way to force them to divide their troops. We can

Create a fighter plane!”

"Many people believe that in the face of the heavy encirclement and suppression by the Japanese and puppet troops, we will only have to retreat and be beaten passively!"

"This idea is wrong. We can also take the initiative to lead the enemy by the nose and create fighter planes to fight them!"

After saying that, Wang Ping asked Xiong Changhe: "Does the First Battalion still have physical strength now and can it continue to fight?"

"Yes!" Xiong Changhe reacted immediately, and then stared at Wang Ping with bright eyes.

As long as Wang Ping has this serious expression on his face, it means that Wang Ping has thought of a solution.

Wang Ping continued to ask: "You haven't forgotten the guerrilla war, right?"

"No, when I was a platoon leader, I often led people and Japanese and puppet troops to fight guerrillas!" Xiong Changhe answered confidently.

"No! The guerrilla warfare I'm talking about is different from the guerrilla warfare you fought before. When you were the platoon leader, you only had twenty or thirty subordinates. But now you have a battalion in your hands, and I want you to use the strength of a battalion and

The Japanese are fighting guerrillas and are under overall command!"

Xiong Changhe was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Wang Ping with a puzzled expression.

Wang Ping explained directly: "In the past, when you fought guerrillas, you would definitely hit and run. However, I now ask you to combine all kinds of tactics such as sneak attacks, luring the enemy deep and so on."

"Around the Japanese and puppet army station in Tianxin Town, prepare a huge guerrilla battlefield for the Japanese."

"Sneak attack on the Japs. If the Japs don't move, they will continue to attack until they send out troops to counterattack. At that time, as long as there is a chance, I will eat the Japs' attacking troops!"

"Of course, the specific method of fighting depends on the actual situation on the battlefield!"

Xiong Changhe frowned and thought for a minute before reacting.

"I understand. Commander, you want me to force the Japanese to divide their troops, and then concentrate our forces to kill the Japanese attacking troops."

"Yes, I have often used this method on the Japs before, and it has always worked. Even if the Japs know that this is a conspiracy, they will not be able to help but send troops. Otherwise, they will wait for us to sneak attack them overnight, and they will still lose their troops!"

"Commander, please give me the order!" Xiong Changhe said with an eager expression on his face as his eyes shot out two rays of light.

Wang Ping was not polite and directly began to give orders: "Take your people, and I will assign a mortar platoon from the mortar company to you. Set off now and try to return to Tianxin Town in the early morning. Use me to hand over

Use your method to deal with the Japanese!"

"First attack them with light and heavy machine guns. If there is no response, use mortars to blast them!"

"Li Wen from the direct team will also come with him. He is an expert in this field. If you have any questions, you can discuss them together."

As soon as Xiong Changhe left, Yang Huping beside him became anxious and immediately asked: "Captain, what about our third battalion?"

"I also have a mission. I plan to prepare a surprise for the Japanese on their way here!"

At the Japanese Army Brigade Headquarters in Linfen City, Brigade Commander Matsui's face, which had been tense all day, finally relaxed an hour ago.

After looking at the map over and over again, he ordered: "Order the Third Battalion to stay put tonight. Since the Eighth Route Army active in Tianxin Town has stopped attacking, there is no need for us to be too anxious. At dawn tomorrow, under the cover of the aviation force,

Go directly to their gathering place and kill them!"

"I will personally send a telegram to the Commander later. Three bombers must be dispatched to support us tomorrow!"

The chief of staff hesitated and asked, "What about the Fourth Brigade?"

"A telegram was just sent saying that the battle to encircle and annihilate the Eighth Route Army has ended. More than a hundred Eighth Route Army were eliminated and a large amount of equipment was seized, but some people still escaped!"

Matsui replied confidently: "Don't worry over there!"

"I am now certain that the Eighth Route Army that went to the north of Linfen was not their main force, but a small force that dispersed our forces. The Eighth Route Army that escaped had very few troops and was nothing to worry about. There were special forces and the Fourth Brigade fighting there to cooperate.

We can definitely kill them!"

Speaking of this, Matsumoto suddenly thought of the Eighth Route Army operating in Fengyun Town.

Compared with other Eighth Route Army troops, Major General Matsumoto was obviously more annoyed with this unit.

Disguising themselves as maintenance escorts under their own noses, using the weapons given to them by the imperial army to develop their troops, and then turning around to attack the imperial army, they are simply treating the imperial army like monkeys.

If this matter gets publicized, even if your superiors won't say anything about you, your colleagues will see you as the butt of jokes.

He frowned and asked, "Where are those Eighth Route Army soldiers in Fengyun Town? I want to wipe them all out, leaving no one alive!"

A smile appeared on the chief of staff's face: "The remaining troops of the Fengyun Town garrison fought very bravely and successfully repelled the Eighth Route Army's attack and defended the stronghold!"

"The Eighth Route Army's current approach is to encircle but not attack, and it even divides its forces!"

"In addition to the troops surrounding the stronghold, two troops were also divided to attack the artillery towers and small strongholds along our highway. In order to reduce losses, I have ordered the garrison in these places to withdraw across the board and rely on the strongholds to defend.

"Yoshi, as long as you don't leave!" This result made Matsumoto very satisfied.

He continued with confidence on his face: "They certainly didn't expect that I would dispatch troops from behind them to encircle and suppress them."

"By the time they react, our first brigade will already be behind them. By then, they won't be able to run away even if they want to!"

From Matsui's perspective, the war situation is developing in his favor step by step.

The passivity during the day is turning into initiative little by little, and then the initiative on the battlefield is completely taken over.

And his old rival Wang Ping wants to stop this change through a big decisive battle and return the initiative to his own hands.

Xiong Changhe, who was eager to train with the Japanese soldiers, completed the nearly fifteen kilometers journey in less than four hours.

As soon as he could see the Japanese and puppet army station outside the town, Li Wen, who was one step ahead, had already finished investigating the enemy situation and was waiting for him in front.

Although Li Wen has less than ten people under his command, less than one squad in the ordinary army. However, Li Wen's rank in the new regiment is company level.

Not surprisingly, as long as the troops gain a foothold outside the mountains, the directly affiliated troops will be expanded, and Li Wen's level will definitely increase, at least to the deputy battalion level.

What is even more admirable is that Li Wen is very talented, especially in special operations and guerrilla warfare, and is self-taught without a teacher.

Therefore, facing Li Wen, Xiong Changhe had no idea of ​​being contemptuous at all.

Even though his level was lower than his own, Xiong Changhe still regarded him as his equal.
