Eight hundred and fifty-ninth chapter former enemy commander
"Linfen Railway Station, you want to go to Linfen Railway Station..." The chief of staff suddenly reacted and stared at Wang Ping like a monster and asked.
"The wise chief of staff is Linfen Railway Station..." Wang Ping readily admitted.
"According to intelligence, after the Tongpu Railway was interrupted, in order to provide a steady stream of food and material supplies to the Japanese and puppet troops on the front line, the Japanese North China Front could only transfer the materials to Linfen Railway Station through trucks and cars, and then load them at Linfen Railway Station.
By car, there are still more than 100 kilometers left to travel by train!”
"When I returned to the base from the war zone more than half a month ago, I blasted a lot of holes in that section of the railway. I heard that it has not been repaired yet. Half a month was enough for the little devils to stock up on several military trains at Linfen Railway Station.
Supplies and food. These are things our Eighth Route Army urgently needs, don’t give them up for free!”
The chief of staff glanced at Wang Ping with admiration and then replied: "I don't know how your brain grows. The Japanese plan everything for you. The little Japanese Major General Kawaguchi has no place to cry when he encounters an opponent like you."
cry……"
At the temporary headquarters of the Japanese army in Xiangfen County, the chief of staff suddenly rushed in, with excitement and excitement on his face.
"General, the Eighth Route Army has moved. The Eighth Route Army guarding us outside Xiangfen City has left. The troops are divided into three groups. Each Eighth Route Army has four to five hundred people. They are armed with heavy machine guns and mortars. They are very fast. They must be rushing to go.
Reinforce their own station!"
"The opportunity has come~" Major General Kawaguchi's eyes quickly shot out two rays of light, and he replied with a hot face.
Then he stared at the chief of staff and asked: "How is the situation of the three infantry brigades on the front line... From the beginning of the attack to now, has there been any progress..."
"No news has come yet!" the chief of staff replied, shaking his head.
After thinking for a few seconds, he continued to report: "However, they all reported that the Eighth Route Army position confronting them was not empty of troops. They had left a lot of troops and were well equipped, including heavy machine guns and infantry artillery. They wanted to
It will definitely be very difficult to break through their defenses within a few hours!"
After saying this, the chief of staff looked at Kawaguchi with a guilty look on his face, fearing that Kawaguchi would get angry.
You must know that the three brigades currently fighting are all veteran units of the brigade. Because too many new recruits have been added, the combat effectiveness has been greatly reduced. Those brigade captains and squadron leaders are also their old subordinates. Once the brigade commander takes advantage of the situation,
, thinking that they are unfavorable in combat and replacing them all, then he, the chief of staff, will have no foundation here at all.
Surprisingly, Major General Kawaguchi did not have any dissatisfaction. A smile quickly flashed across his calm face, and he answered happily.
“It’s okay to have difficulties!”
"The new regiment only has those troops. If the troops have difficulty in attacking, it proves that the Eighth Route Army has gathered a lot of troops in front of our three brigades. Now more than 1,500 Eighth Route Army troops have killed them. How many Eighth Route Army troops do you think are left around us?
!”
"No more than a thousand people, no, maybe not even five hundred people!" the chief of staff replied with wide eyes.
Then he analyzed: "They must try their best to prevent our three brigades from entering their base area. Otherwise, the base area they have worked so hard to establish will definitely be completely occupied by us!"
"There is also a new group, which has finally regained its strength and grown stronger. Once they lose their base, they will definitely fall apart again."
"More importantly, after two consecutive defeats and facing the imperial army's revenge, the surrounding Chinese people will no longer believe in them and continue to support them at the risk of imperial army's revenge!"
Major General Kawaguchi answered with satisfaction: "That's a good analysis..."
"Send a telegram to the three brigade captains and ask them to strengthen their fortifications...don't they have enough artillery? I will give him air support. If the aviation force is needed, report directly to the brigade headquarters, and I will coordinate with them!"
"Even if we cannot break through the Eighth Route Army's defense line immediately, we must attract all the remaining main forces of the Eighth Route Army to them!"
"Also, order the mobile troops formed in the three counties to dispatch immediately to sweep away the remaining remnants of the Eighth Route Army in the jurisdiction. Tell them that they must treat the Chinese people harshly. All the Eighth Route Army, as well as the Chinese people who are related to the Eighth Route Army, will only resist
, all of them were killed without mercy. Even if they surrendered, they could not be let go. They were all captured and worked as coolies for the imperial army..."
The chief of staff immediately asked: "General... what about us?"
"Tomorrow morning, under the cover of the aviation force, the troops will be divided into three groups and take the initiative to attack. They will directly attack the three battlefields and launch an attack from behind the Eighth Route Army..."
Early the next morning, Wang Ping was awakened by the staff officer on duty.
As soon as he rushed to the headquarters, Zhong Chenggong, political commissar, commander, and chief of staff followed him in one after another.
"Wang Ping, have the little devils from Xiangfen County moved?" Seeing Wang Ping, the impatient commander couldn't help but ask.
Wang Ping immediately replied: "Yes, the troops were divided into three groups and attacked our three battalions' positions!"
Then he pointed at the map and introduced: "An infantry brigade, plus a battalion of puppet troops, and a mountain artillery squadron, are going towards the direction of the first battalion!"
"It's also an infantry brigade, a puppet army battalion, and a mountain artillery squadron, heading towards the fourth battalion to kill!"
"The Japanese and puppet troops on the third route only had two infantry squadrons, one puppet battalion and one field artillery squadron, but they had cavalry troops. More than 300 cavalry followed them and they went to the farthest second battalion!"
"Major General Kawaguchi, the leader of the Japs Brigade, stayed behind in Xiangfen County. There was also a battalion of puppet troops, plus some disabled Japs, guard troops, baggage troops, a mountain artillery squadron, and about 1,500 people...
…”
"How do you plan to fight?" Commander Chen asked directly without being polite!
For a moment, everyone in the command center focused their attention on Wang Ping.
Seeing Wang Ping's hesitant expression, the chief of staff directly added: "If you have anything to say, just say it. You are the former enemy headquarters. Now the entire troops in Linfen, including the brigades directly under the military region, are all under your command. I and I
Commander Chen also listens to your orders."
"Yes, Chief, then I'm welcome..." Wang Ping's worries disappeared.
He turned his attention to the map in front of him again and ordered with a serious face: "A new assault battalion, a mortar company and a heavy machine gun company directly under the regiment headquarters will be reinforced immediately. Chief of Staff, you are responsible for commanding these troops. I don't ask for it.
Annihilate all the Japanese and puppet troops who are attacking the first battalion, but you must give them a heavy blow. Of course, it would be best if they are completely wiped out. The first battalion will also be under your command..."
"The brigade under direct control will first mobilize a small group of elite troops to harass the Japanese and puppet troops who are slowly attacking the fourth battalion along the way. We will set off as soon as it gets dark today and rush here. We will ambush these Japanese and puppet troops during the day tomorrow and kill them..."
Having said this, Wang Ping directly turned his attention to the commander, and then reported: "Commander... I am not familiar with the direct brigade. I hope you can personally command this ambush battle! After all, the direct brigade is a new unit.
Without you in charge, I'm worried something might happen!"
"No problem! I will listen to you Wang Ping today. Wang Ping, you set up the stage and I will sing!"
