Chapter 93: Storming Ping'an County?

"That's it! ......" After getting Zhao Gang's information, Wang Lei was silent for a while and said, "Do you want Ping'an County?" ”

"What!" Zhao Gang was taken aback by Wang Lei's question. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Storm Ping'an County! Now there are less than a thousand Japanese puppet troops stationed in Ping'an County! With your current strength, you should be able to attack it! Wang Lei continued.

"Wang Lei, attacking the county seat is not so simple, let's not say that we don't have enough ammunition, once the Japanese army in the nearby county town comes to support at any time, we don't have so many troops to block and support the Japanese army." Zhao Gang was a little moved by Wang Lei's plan to storm Ping'an County

"Weapons and ammunition, don't worry, the weapons you used in the last battle of Nameless Valley are still in the warehouse, this time I can directly send them all to your independent regiment, and the weapon problem is solved!" The problem of ammunition is also simple, and this time I will supply the independent regiment free of charge to the independent regiment as I did last time in the attack on Ping'an County. I believe that a well-equipped regiment with plenty of ammunition to attack the county town with only 500 men can capture the county town before the devils can support it. Today, I will sneak into Ping'an County as soon as possible to explore Zhu Qi's location, as long as you start attacking Ping'an County and lure a large number of little devils away, I will be sure to rescue Zhu Qi. Wang Lei was ruthless, and the materials he borrowed from the arsenal in the last battle were finally replaced. It's just that after this battle, it is estimated that the money he just got from selling bazookas will be gone.

"......" Zhao Gang fell into silence, Ping'an County has always been a thorn in Zhao Gang's heart, he blocked the possibility of the independent regiment entering the hinterland of Shanxi, but before the lack of weapons and equipment, it was very difficult to attack Ping'an County, and there are several counties near Ping'an County There are also Japanese troops, as long as there is a fight, it may be surrounded by the surrounding devil support troops, and now Wang Lei promised to make him very excited, now not only has a great chance to fight Ping'an County, but also to rescue Zhu Qi who was captured.

"That's it! Don't think about it, now is an opportunity to lay down the county seat of Ping'an, if you don't fight now! When the new defending Japanese army arrives in Ping'an County in a few months, it will be difficult to capture Ping'an County! Wang Lei saw that Zhao Gang hesitated and hurriedly instigated.

"It's no problem to fight, it's just that after beating Ping'an County, how can we face the counterattack of the Japanese!" Zhao Gang was moved, but as a commander, he took into account the defensive problem after the defeat,!

"What are you afraid of! You're still afraid that the devils will send a division to trouble you! As a commander, don't tell me you don't know the little devil's current predicament! "As a traverser, Wang Lei finally did a little bit of what a traverser should do after coming for half a year, that is, he asked Bai Xue about the history of the next few years, he knew that now Japan has fallen into a very embarrassing situation, one of the main reasons for Japan to start a war is that Japan was affected by the first economic crisis, a large number of workers lost their jobs, agricultural harvests failed year after year, rice prices continued to rise, the vast number of unemployed workers and bankrupt peasants in urban and rural areas continued to set off rice grain riots, and the class contradictions in Japan were very acute. In order to extricate itself from its domestic predicament and use war to get rid of the economic crisis, the Japanese ruling clique initially proposed to destroy China in three months; apart from the arrogance of the Japanese, the most important thing is that the Japanese ruling clique clearly understands that if it wants to destroy China, it must fight a quick battle, and the longer it drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for Japan.

At the same time, today the Japanese army has occupied Hainan Island and Nansha Islands, controlling air and sea supremacy in the South China Sea, and directly threatening the security of the US Philippines; in response, the United States announced on July 26 this year that the "US-Japan Trade Treaty," which expired on January 26, 1940, will not be renewed, and the termination of this treaty means that Japan's oil supply will be cut off. This led the Japanese Army to envisage a unilateral voluntary withdrawal from Chinese mainland in 1940. On 30 March next year, the General Staff Headquarters of the Japanese Army and the Ministry of War will hold a meeting, at which it was decided that if the Chinese question could not be resolved in 1940 and the Chinese troops still did not surrender, Japan would unilaterally withdraw its troops, except for a small number of troops stationed in Shanghai and Inner Mongolia, and withdraw all the rest from the mainland battlefield, that is, the Japanese troops would retreat to the Lugou Bridge on 7 July 1937.

Later, in history, the Japanese high-level resolution was not implemented, and the fierce German offensive in 1940 caused the Japanese Army to abandon the negative idea of unilateral withdrawal. On March 30, 1940, as soon as the Japanese army leaders reached a consensus on the withdrawal of troops, Nazi Germany launched a large-scale blitzkrieg in Western Europe, killing France in only one month. The triumphant victory of the Allies swept away the decadence of the Japanese high-brass, and they were ready to rush to catch a ride on victory.

Moreover, in the winter of this year, the Chinese army launched a full-scale counterattack on the frontal battlefield from the Taihang Mountains in the north to the Kunlun Pass in the south.

"But we still don't have enough ammunition to defend Ping'an County." Zhao Gang said this embarrassing fact, it is okay to occupy the county seat, but after the occupation, the devils will definitely have a counterattack, although as Wang Lei said, he will not be able to have a division come over, but a small group of Japanese troops are still back, Tiebetsu is the 11th Wing of Yuichi Nagano who will arrive in a few months, they will definitely launch an attack in order to recapture Ping'an County, but most of the bullets of the Eighth Route Army rely on capture, and the ammunition captured now is simply not enough for them to carry out a defensive battle.

"The Niujiazhuang Arsenal has expanded its ammunition production capacity, and I will go to Political Commissar Sun to say that you can temporarily lend you a large amount of ammunition!"

"Okay! But I need to apply to my superiors! "This is a big battle, and according to the regulations of the Eighth Route Army, large-scale military operations need to be applied to the brigade headquarters.

"It's too late, the day after tomorrow is the deadline for the little devil, Zhu Qi can't wait for you to ask for instructions, and when you ask for instructions, Zhu Qi has been sent to Japan. I'll go to Ping'an County to inquire about Zhu Qi's location later, as long as the location is determined, I will rescue the day after tomorrow! I hope your attack will attract a lot of troops from the little devils! ”

"This~......" Zhao Gang hesitated, he raised his head and kept thinking about it, and after a while, he made up his mind and said, "It's done!" Zhao Gang gritted his teeth and nodded directly in agreement, this is a very good fighter, and at the same time, this is also the only chance to save Zhu Qi. Now there is no time to go up for instructions, he can only act on his own, which is completely against military discipline, Zhao Gang has now been released, and it is a big deal to be the head of the regiment.

"Okay! I'll wait for your news first, and I'll start the rescue as soon as the gunshots sound outside the city! In addition, you can ...... about the support of the Japanese."
