The Japanese puppet army adopted this gradual advance, and the follow-up Japanese puppet staff followed up to screen and appease the villages in the base areas, and the blow to the Eighth Route Army was really not small.

Even if they can't wipe out the Eighth Route Army, the Eighth Route Army should not hope to open up a solid base again in a short period of time.

The guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army mainly relied on the people in the base areas, and they would propagate and mobilize the masses wherever they went, and win the broad support of the local people.

And the devils are doing this, they are really demolishing their platform, this is to destroy their foundation, their foundation in New Taipei is weak, and now these Japanese puppet troops are tossing.

The people who sympathized with and supported the Eighth Route were arrested and intimidated by the Japanese puppet personnel, and the framework that Zhang Yunfei had built with great difficulty was basically destroyed, and it took more time and energy to rebuild.

At present, the Japanese puppet army is divided into three routes, all the way from the Guohe area to the west, all the way from Yuanzhuang, all the way from the Shangping area to the north, encircling the three queyi, pressing step by step, compressing their activity space.

Although most of the operations were puppet troops, and only a small number of devils were mixed in as advisers to supervise the army, this sweep was more difficult to deal with than all the previous ones.

People will only be flexible when they are forced to be urgent, and those devils in the past routinely swept up, burned, killed, looted and withdrew.

And Ogawa Seiichi is really racking his brains thinking about how to deal with the Eighth Route Army, the attitude is different, and the effect is naturally different, his purpose is not to eliminate how many Eighth Routes, but to make the Eighth Route have no soil to survive in his own jurisdiction.

And the puppet army, knowing the local situation, is actually more suitable for sweeping operations, but they don't have any beliefs, they are purely messing around, and their initiative is too poor, and now they are being stared at by devils all the time, and they are pressed closely, and this enthusiasm is not the same.

The Japanese puppet army gradually advanced on three sides, Zhang Yunfei tried to concentrate his forces many times and beat out the Japanese puppet army's way, but unfortunately the Japanese puppet army responded very well to each other, once the battle started, other troops would immediately intersperse and encircle.

Damn, these Japanese puppet troops have really changed a lot, a bit of the rules and roads of the devil's march, and they are not superior in terms of strength and firepower, facing the three-sided pressure of the Japanese puppet army, he can only give up his original tactical attempt, and can only retreat step by step.

With the steady advance of the Japanese puppet army, the blockade line is also advancing to the northwest, and the activity space of Zhang Yunfei's department is squeezed little by little and falls into a dangerous situation.

Zhang Yunfei also wanted to jump out of the line in order to mobilize the enemy's encirclement of the base area, but it was a pity that the commander of the Japanese puppet army knew their style very well, and the joint defense between the Japanese puppet army was very tight, and they were not given any chance at all.

Although the devil has a limited number of troops, he can no longer draw more troops to assist in the sweep, but he also dispatched a small team of mobile troops composed of trucks and motorcycles, and in case of emergency, this devil can quickly reach the battlefield and carry out fire reinforcements.

Zhang Yunfei, who was forced to be helpless, could only prepare to fight a tough battle on the front line of Dale Zhi'an, they are not a guerrilla force of dozens of people now, it is not a good thing to be forced into the mountains in this winter, and it will be really difficult to endure that day.

Therefore, this battle is to bet on all the family funds, and he chose the area from Dale to Anshang as the battlefield, mainly because the terrain here is relatively gentle.

No one is a fool, the more ideal the ambush position, the higher the vigilance of the devil puppet army, but this kind of location that is not very suitable for ambush is likely to have fighters.

This time he was completely bottomless, but he had to fight, if he didn't break one of the links of the Japanese puppet army, cause a chain reaction, mobilize the Japanese puppet army, and make all the enemies move.

According to the current situation, if the enemy advances steadily and eats away step by step, they will be like fish in a net, they will only be tightened more and more, and in the end they will not even have a chance to struggle, they can only obediently fall into the net tightened by the other party.

Whether the Eighth Route Army is engaged in movement warfare or guerrilla warfare, its first condition is to have a base area with a certain foundation.

This is the basic living space of the Eighth Route Army, and the people provide them with the greatest protection and support, and the current Japanese puppet army is digging their foundations, if their foundations are all cut off, they are like rootless duckweed.

Moreover, the concerns that have just been established in the base area are themselves grass on the wall, a little bit of wind and grass, and they are all goods that turn their faces and do not recognize people.

As soon as they saw that they had really completely lost their position, they did not immediately turn back, so the current crisis, whether it was political or military, this battle was necessary.

Now he is no longer a guerrilla fighting alone, before the war also learned about the fraternal units, hoping that they can cooperate, the thought of needing Qi Dajiu's cooperation, always feels unpleasant, fortunately the current commander of the second battalion is not him, otherwise he is really uncomfortable like swallowing a fly.

He was also very depressed, this time the tactics of the Japanese puppet army were very scoundrels, and he was about to be forced into a corner.

No matter how scummy the combat effectiveness of the Japanese puppet army is, he can't do more than 3,000 people in one battalion, and his own strength is not enough to fight against the surrounding puppet army, and if he wants to break the blockade of the puppet army, he can only ask for help from brother units.

However, even with the addition of the second battalion stationed in Pingchuan, their strength was still at an absolute disadvantage, and the second battalion could only feint at most to help them contain part of their troops.

Now the Eighth Route Army is shrinking the defensive line and adjusting the defense, and now this place is in a vacuum, the strength is too weak, and the support of the three battalions is limited this time, and they have to rely on themselves if they want to get out of the current predicament in the end.

Zhang Yunfei is very cautious about this game-breaking battle, they only have one chance for this kind of sneak attack, and the raid battle is not a war of annihilation, which means that there will not be many captures and supplements.

And with the current ammunition reserves of their three battalions, it is only enough for them to fight a battle, and after this battle, the guns in their hands are estimated to have become burning sticks, once they can't break the situation and disrupt the arrangement of the Japanese puppet army, then they will really be tragic.

Therefore, Zhang Yunfei conducted a detailed understanding and analysis of the combat area selected this time, and asked Tiedan's reconnaissance platoon to track and monitor the movements of the Japanese puppet army at any time, and screen out the easiest targets.

Their purpose in this battle was to mobilize the enemy and break the stalemate, and second, to annihilate the enemy and obtain some supplies, so that the troops could maintain a certain ability to fight again after the war.

At the same time, avoid getting caught in the attack, once you are dragged by the enemy, you will be surrounded by the enemy in an instant, which is the worst-case scenario.

There are too many restrictions in this battle, and everything must be done perfectly, as long as there is a problem in one link, it may lead to their army falling into a place of no return.

As a commander, the more critical the moment, the more confident he must be, and only in this way can he stabilize the morale of the army.
