Chapter nine hundred and twentieth eight seamless attack
The division commander did not move, and the chief of staff continued to introduce: "In addition to the five main battalions, the new regiment also has an armored unit with a size of about one company, a mountain artillery unit with a size of about one battalion, and a cavalry unit with a size of about one.
A battalion..."
"This is all the strength of the main force of the new regiment... Division Commander, my introduction is over~"
Lieutenant General Ito nodded and said: "I just heard you talk about an idea...the troops are divided into five groups and go directly to the base of the five main battalions of the New Regiment and kill them! What I want to answer you is,
It’s a good idea, but it’s absolutely impossible to kill them!”
"I want to remind everyone here that the new regiment is the Eighth Route Army, not the Shanxi-Sui Army we originally encountered!"
"They fight very cunningly and never confront the imperial army head-on. I can guarantee that by the time our troops kill them, one of their main battalions will have already given up their station and fled, and then they will hide in some corner and stare at us. As long as we expose anything
Weaknesses and defensive loopholes, these Eighth Route Army troops will pounce on us like hungry wolves and bite off a piece of meat from us..."
"So, we can no longer use the old method of dealing with the Jinsui Army to deal with the new regiment. We must use new methods..."
"Division Commander, you already have a solution!" the brigade commander next to him asked, staring at Lieutenant General Ito, his eyes shining!
"Not bad... Now let's ask the chief of staff to introduce our combat plan to everyone..."
The atmosphere at the enemy headquarters of the New Regiment in Xiangfen County became increasingly tense.
Whether it is the news from Linfen or various intelligence reports from the military region, it indicates that the Japanese will start taking action in the next day or two to retaliate against the new group.
"Captain, the Japs have begun to take action... This kind of transfer really looks down upon our new regiment!" the chief of staff rushed into the war room and reported with a solemn face.
After reading the telegram handed over by the chief of staff, Wang Ping directly replied with a stern face: "This is so disrespectful. They treat us as if we were the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army!"
"Political Commissar, Chief of Staff, our opponents are too cautious and don't even give us a chance!"
"Look at the map. Our base areas surround Linfen in a semicircle, and are located in the east, south, and north of Linfen City. According to the conventional fighting method, the Japs will definitely divide their troops into four groups and attack directly towards the four counties under our control.
However, he did not, but concentrated his forces and attacked county after county."
"First concentrate our forces to capture our base area in the south of Linfen City, which is the first battalion defense area. Then we will form a large network with Linfen City as the center, sweep across our base area, and push our troops from the south to the west of the city bit by bit, and then
Then force them to the north of the city, and finally gather together to rape them!"
"If the Japanese don't separate their forces, we won't be able to defeat them one by one. This Ito must have studied a lot of our new regiment's previous tactics before he thought of this encirclement and suppression strategy and wouldn't give us a chance to defeat them individually!"
Zhong Chenggong frowned and said: "They also left three to four thousand people behind in Linfen City. This is obviously to prevent us from getting behind them and attacking their logistics base. The leader of the Japanese Division can handle everything!"
"That's right, the little devil can figure out everything~"
"Either we give up our base, or we fight them decisively... What a plan!"
"Then what should we do? Is there no way to defeat the Japanese's new tactics?" Political Commissar Huang Yuanqiang asked anxiously.
"Yes... there must be!" Wang Ping answered with certainty.
"Right now, 10,000 or 20,000 Japs are concentrated together, but I'm sure that after they take over the first battalion defense area, they will definitely divide their troops. Otherwise, they will not be able to sweep across our base area!"
Political Commissar Huang Yuanqiang gestured at the map and analyzed: "Captain, even if the Japs divide their forces, we can't hold out too much hope..."
"Our base area is a semicircle, not very long in depth. If I were the Japanese commander, the best way would be to separate the troops from each other by fifteen to twenty kilometers, and divide the troops into three groups to sweep across our base area. In this way, each of their groups would
All the troops have at least one infantry regiment, plus the heavy artillery attached to their actions. Even if they divide their troops, each mopping up troops will still be a huge force for us!"
Wang Ping nodded and affirmed: "It is indeed a giant. In addition, political commissar, you have ignored the two Japanese troops~"
"As expected, their chariot brigade will definitely divide its forces to cooperate with the infantry to encircle and suppress us. After all, chariots can attack when advancing and defend when retreating. They are the best heavy weapons to cooperate with infantry operations!"
"As for their cavalry troops, they may be divided into separate groups, or they may be arranged in the middle!"
"The cavalry is fast and has strong assault capabilities. Unlike chariots, which are highly dependent on roads. It can be said that the cavalry is the best reinforcement emergency force. For them, a distance of one to twenty kilometers can last for an hour.
We can arrive soon. And it is almost impossible for our new regiment to kill one of their infantry regiments within an hour!"
"Especially during the day, when the Japs have air support, it's even more impossible!"
The political commissar's face became heavier than ever before. He hesitated for a few seconds before replying: "This means that the tactics of the little devils in encircling and attacking us this time are perfect, without any loopholes~"
"You can say that..." Wang Ping didn't hide anything and answered calmly.
Seeing that the faces of the two partners were getting worse and worse, Wang Ping added immediately: "But you don't have to worry too much!"
"The Japanese who attacked us are fierce and powerful. But we are not without any advantages. First of all, the only Japanese who attacked us this time are not puppet troops. In this way, we will have fewer worries when fighting. On the battlefield,
Mine warfare, sparrow warfare... just use them. Don't worry too much about ammunition. Whether it is the main force, local troops, or even guerrillas, they will be replenished with as much ammunition as they use in different divisions. In addition, if a little Japanese is killed, the army will
The division will reward another twenty rounds of bullets or two grenades!"
The heavy expression on the political commissar's face was instantly wiped away: "This method is good. Without the puppet troops to cooperate with them in fighting, we will have a lot less worries when fighting. Coupled with your reward plan, commander, I am sure that the following will
The troops will definitely go crazy and look for the Japanese to fight~"
"Also, let me tell you one more thing. During the entire counter-encirclement and suppression campaign, all the houses destroyed by the Japanese will be repaired by the military division and compensated according to the price!"
"With this order, those garrison troops and guerrillas will have less worries when fighting the Japanese. The woods, roads, and even villages can become their battlefields. As long as they can win this counter-encirclement and suppression campaign, even if
Even if the entire base area is destroyed by the Japanese, we won’t hesitate!”
"Finally, and most importantly, you, the political commissar, need to handle this!"
"Although we have more than a thousand little Japanese immigrants in our hands, we can rely on them to prevent the Japanese from attacking us as unscrupulously as before. However, bullets do not have eyes, and we cannot send out all the little Japanese to do it.
.So, for the safety of the people in the base area, all the people on the entire battlefield must be relocated, and no one can be left behind!"
Huang Yuanqiang was stunned for several seconds before he reacted. He opened his mouth and asked: "Commander, these are hundreds of thousands of people, and not all of them may be willing to listen to the command of our Eighth Route Army!"
"If you don't want to obey the command, let the local troops and guerrillas forcibly move... Let me tell you, all the wells and food in the village will be buried, and you only need to take away the valuables. During the transfer, we will take care of the food!"
"Also, although there are indeed millions of people in the base area, at least half a million people's homes will become war zones and be raided by the devils. However, the number of people we need to transfer each time is at most tens of thousands. You know
, The Japs’ mopping up troops cannot stay in one place for a long time, as long as they leave, the people can go back!”
Huang Yuanqiang breathed a sigh of relief and replied: "It will be much easier this way~ Captain, please rest assured, I promise to complete the mission and try not to let a single commoner die in this Japanese encirclement and suppression operation!"
