Zhang Yunfei's guess was not wrong at all, Battalion Commander Wang and they were very clear about the enemies of Xingzhuang.

Or this is not speculation, the Eighth Route Army has this strength, if they are not careful, they will be wiped out, so they have to deal with the Japanese puppet army around them carefully, and the investigation is naturally very clear and careful.

Important information can't be obtained, how many people there are, what kind of weapons, this kind of information is still easy to figure out, after all, there are still traitors and other people in the stronghold of the devil who often come and go.

Not all traitors are hardcore, and this kind of news is not very easy for outsiders to investigate, but as a local snake, this kind of news is still easy to find out as long as they put a little effort into it.

Moreover, the Japanese puppet army this time is also one of their main opponents, and it is impossible for the third battalion of the new second regiment to be unfamiliar with their situation.

This Japanese puppet army has caused a lot of trouble and casualties to the third battalion of the new second regiment in several consecutive sweeps in the spring and summer, so Battalion Commander Wang naturally wants to find an opportunity to eat them, but because of strength, not only did they fail to do so, but they lost their troops and lost their generals.

For them, the enemies of the torture village are like a fish in their throats, they can't spit it out, they can't swallow it, and they are uncomfortable.

Now that Zhang Yunfei has given such a plan, although he feels that it is still a bit unreliable and a little suspicious of changing the battle plan, at least there is a legitimate reason for attacking, so Battalion Commander Wang also took advantage of the situation.

Battalion Commander Wang continued: "This puppet army, they are all trained and mastered by the devil himself, and the commander who leads the team is also a lieutenant of the devil, and their establishment is completely in accordance with the devil's military system, which is equivalent to a squadron of the devil, and each squad leader is basically served by the devil's soldiers. ”

"So this puppet army is not only extremely combative, but also desperate to give the devil his life, plus they are well-armed, and their offensive and defensive capabilities are quite good, if they are not wearing pseudo-military uniforms, they are really not much different from the real devils."

"It's not about the morale of others, to be honest, our battalion is really not their opponent, it's not just a matter of weapons and equipment, from a tactical level, we are not an opponent, and this is the first time we have seen such a puppet army."

Zhang Yunfei: "......"

In fact, this kind of puppet army really can't be regarded as the first time, the devils still recruited a lot of these two devils in their colony, but they all wore the military uniforms of the devils.

However, on the battlefield in China, due to political reasons, they could only form a servant army like the puppet army, although the puppet army alleviated the shortage of troops in the areas occupied by the devils.

But the combat effectiveness of the puppet army is too scummy, and sometimes, some important defense areas really can't be handed over to them, but the devils are not strong enough, so they can only use such an alternative method to train such an alternative puppet army.

In order to let this puppet army soldiers have a certain combat effectiveness, they completely refer to the devil's army from training to equipment, and even in terms of salary, it is higher than that of other puppet army, as for material supply, those should be given priority, and the treatment they enjoy is not much different from the two devils who served in the devil's army.

On the surface, although the stronghold of Xingzhuang is a little larger, and the number of garrisons of the Japanese puppet army does not exceed the number of large strongholds, but if you compare it with real battles, it is not like that at all.

"When attacking Honglingkou, we didn't think about the Japanese puppet army of Xingzhuang, but we couldn't stop it, Battalion Commander Zhang, I suggest that this operation should be more cautious." Battalion Commander Wang approved of the plan to attack the stronghold of Xingzhuang.

But he didn't look at their actions, they had repeatedly suffered losses at the hands of this Japanese puppet army, and he knew very well what the combat power of this Japanese puppet army was.

So he still decided to persuade Zhang Yunfei: "Battalion Commander Zhang, I know that you have put the target of your attack on Xingzhuang, there is really nothing wrong with this from a tactical point of view, but the question is, can we capture the stronghold of Xingzhuang in a short time." ”

"Here in Honglingkou, once the battle starts, only reinforcements will come from the direction of Xingzhuang, considering that they also have to defend Xingzhuang, the troops they can draw are limited, although the reinforced enemy is still strong, blocking the enemy for a period of time is still possible, enough for the main force of my two battalions to capture Honglingkou."

"But Xingzhuang is different, it is almost impossible for us to quickly solve the battle, the longer it drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for us, from the direction of Qingling, reinforcements may arrive at any time."

Although Battalion Commander Wang was moved by the prospects described by Zhang Yunfei, he still preferred the most conservative and prudent way of fighting.

Yes, the harvest of attacking the stronghold of Xiaxingzhuang is huge, but if it can't be defeated, it will be a loss to grandma's house.

So he felt that Zhang Yunfei's tactic was too risky, it was completely a gamble of luck, once he was not careful, it would hurt himself, once they were stuck by the Japanese puppet army in Xingzhuang, when the Japanese puppet army in Qingling City arrived, they would be outflanked, and then they would be really passive.

He still felt that Zhang Yunfei's plan was a little too radical and too risky, which was what worried him the most.

Camp Commander Wang's words not only did not dispel Zhang Yunfei's thoughts, but made Zhang Yunfei even more determined to take the torture village.

No matter how elite this puppet army is, it is impossible for it to really be the same as the devils, so they will at least cripple this gang of traitors and lackeys.

Zhang Yunfei's plan to attack Xingzhuang was carefully considered, and Battalion Commander Wang's intelligence report reduced the success rate of his battle plan a lot, but it was enough for him to cancel the plan.

Maybe to fight the enemy of such an important stronghold, the devil may react faster.

Of course, these are all assumptions, and Zhang Yunfei feels that this Battalion Commander Wang is a bit too exaggerated about the strength of the enemy.

The cadres of the Eighth Route Army seeking truth from facts are excellent qualities, and Zhang Yunfei also believes that this Battalion Commander Wang is truthfully stating the facts.

But people are subjective, such as difficult opponents and difficulties, and they will always subconsciously describe him as very serious, and it is likely to deviate from the facts.

After all, they have suffered losses at the hands of this enemy several times, and they may be a little frightened.

Maybe the Japanese puppet army in Xingzhuang is likely to be a nightmare level of difficulty for their battalion, but for their own battalion, it may only be a difficult level.

Of course, Zhang Yunfei didn't rely entirely on this kind of speculation, he also had a reason to support him in attacking Xingzhuang, that is, the last time they fought, the devil's Qingling troops were also greatly damaged.

After the battle began, the scale of reinforcements sent from Qingling City may not be as strong as they imagined.
