Chapter 765: The First Shot of the Hundred Regiments Battle
After figuring out the fact that the new regiment had wiped out nearly 4,000 Japanese puppet troops, the commander couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
Because this fact means that Wang Ping did not lie about the results of the battle in the telegram, and all the military region's guesses and inferences about the new regiment were wrong.
After nodding with satisfaction, the commander immediately thought of the action that the new regiment was about to start!
"Wang Ping, Political Commissar Huang has been assigned a task by you as soon as he arrived. Your new regiment will definitely have big actions next. Can you tell us?"
"The Japs have suffered such a big loss, and with their vengeful character, they will definitely retaliate. Therefore, we must stock up on enough supplies, equipment and ammunition to meet the Japs' revenge!" Wang Ping replied with a serious face.
"Then what is your goal? As far as I know, there is only one place in Linfen that can meet your conditions, and that is Linfen City!" the commander continued to ask.
"The material warehouse, ammunition warehouse, and train station transfer warehouse in Linfen City all have the materials and ammunition you urgently need. However, with the current strength of the New Regiment, it is impossible to take over these places, and they can't even enter Linfen City!
"
Wang Ping did not hide anything and answered directly: "Commander, Linfen City is a tough guy. I have a sense of proportion. Don't worry. As for the action at hand, I plan to rob the military train transporting supplies by the little devil. Guard the Tongpu railway line. If the troops
If we are still hungry and have no ammunition, then my job as the leader of the new regiment will be in vain!"
"I plan to assemble four battalions of firepower companies, plus two infantry companies, as well as all the troops directly under the new regiment, to start on the Tongpu Railway Line."
"Good idea!" The commander immediately thought of the raid order issued by the headquarters a few days ago.
"Wang Ping, you may not know yet, but the headquarters is planning to launch a large-scale raid in North China. If you succeed here, it will be the first shot of the entire raid!"
"Battle of a hundred regiments!" These four words suddenly appeared in Wang Ping's mind.
Then I thought about history, the Hundred Regiment War seems to have started in these few days.
Two rays of light quickly shot out from his eyes, and he promised very happily: "Commander, please rest assured, the new regiment guarantees to complete the mission!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the chief of staff who was temporarily in charge of the intelligence department rushed over with a solemn look on his face.
"Regiment leader, commander, the information sent from Linfen City came directly from the puppet troops!"
“In order to boost the morale of the Japanese and puppet troops, Major Matsumoto, the commander of the Japanese brigade, promised in front of all the middle and senior officers of the Japanese and puppet troops that a field infantry regiment would be dispatched from the front line to Fencheng at the latest one month to support them in encircling and suppressing us!
"
"So many people!" Wang Ping frowned subconsciously.
"That's not all!" Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong continued to add.
"In addition to a field infantry regiment, there is also a field artillery brigade and a tank squadron, with a total strength of more than 4,000 soldiers, all of whom are battle-hardened veterans!"
The commander's face also became very embarrassed. He frowned and analyzed: "Wang Ping, Chief of Staff Zhong, the field infantry regiment is different from the Japanese garrison we encountered before. It has stronger combat effectiveness and more heavy firepower."
.Add a field artillery brigade and a chariot squadron, and the Jinsui Army of more than 10,000 people can be easily defeated on the frontal battlefield!"
"The pressure that your new group will face next is not ordinary!"
Wang Ping's brows did not wrinkle for too long before they relaxed, and he answered very confidently: "Commander, please rest assured that there is no task that the new regiment cannot complete. I have already thought of a solution for the infantry regiment that the Japanese are about to kill!"
The commander immediately asked: "Is there a solution so soon?"
"Yes!" Wang Ping affirmed.
"The Japs just fought a big war with us. Not only did they lose a lot of troops, but they also consumed a lot of supplies. Now that there are so many more troops at once, the consumption of various supplies and ammunition can definitely be described in astronomical figures.
describe."
"Without sufficient material reserves, even if the reinforcements Matsumoto said arrive, they will not dare to attack us casually."
"So, I decided to take action on the supplies that Matsumoto is raising and stockpiling so that they don't have the strength to attack us. At the very least, it can delay their attack on us and let us be more prepared!"
"It's still the Tongpu Railway!" The commander responded quickly and answered to the point.
"This is the railway, Commander. The most direct way to transport supplies to Linfen City from outside is the Youtong-Pu Railway. Even if they abandon the railway and take the road, they still have to pass through our New Regiment's control area, and we can still find opportunities to take action.
!" Wang Ping affirmed.
The serious expression on the commander's face disappeared, and he happily analyzed: "Robbing the Japanese army train on the Tongpu Railway will not only delay their attack on our base area, but also seize a large amount of materials and ammunition, which will increase our ability to counter-encirclement and suppression."
Strength, kill two birds with one stone!"
"This is the first shot in our military region's large-scale raid. I decided to personally participate in the battle to see how your new regiment can fight!"
"If the effect of the attack battle is good, I will carry out a full-army promotion as soon as I return to the military region, and then completely paralyze the Japanese and puppet army supply lines in the Taiyue Military Region!"
Wang Ping refused without thinking: "I don't agree, Commander, it's too dangerous for you to go there in person, and I have to divide my troops to protect you, so I can't direct the battle wholeheartedly. If it's just to understand the entire battle process, at worst, I won't be able to do it after the battle is over.
Submit a detailed summary of the battle."
"Don't be careless, don't think I don't know your little thoughts!" the commander retorted without hesitation.
"Don't worry, I don't want any of the materials or ammunition that the New Regiment seized on the Tongpu Railway. But there is one exception. If there are medicines, they must be turned over to part of the military region!"
"As for my safety, you don't have to worry about it. I brought a security company and a special operations unit here. With their protection, there is no problem with my safety at all."
His thoughts were seen through, and Wang Ping's face suddenly turned red, and then he showed an embarrassed smile.
At this moment, the communications staff rushed over to rescue Wang Ping.
"Captain, please call the team directly!"
"The Japanese are transporting supplies to the train station, including food, ammunition, as well as artillery shells and medicines that we are in urgent need of. The supplies will start loading when they arrive at the train station. After investigation, it is found that these supplies are all transported to Linfen and will be loaded tomorrow night.
Departure, the train will enter Linfen one day later, they are still not sure of the specific time!"
"What good news!" Wang Ping exclaimed excitedly.
"It's almost as if Cao Cao and Cao Cao are here. Commander, I plan for the troops to rest today and tomorrow, rush to the railway line tomorrow night, then rest for the whole day, and take action the next night to rob this military column!"
The commander shook his head and replied: "I participated in the battle but did not participate in the command. I only watched and said nothing. I believe in your command ability. You can fight however you want!"
