Chapter 228 - Multi-party Plan (Guaranteed Monthly Pass 3)
"Commander Tada! I have some of the most elite special forces in the Empire, some of whom have come back from Germany, and they have infiltrated the hinterland of the Eighth Route Army many times to conduct reconnaissance and brought back enough intelligence, led by Yamamoto Kazuki Daisa, who graduated from the Munich Special School. Another bald old devil stood up and spoke in a serious tone.
"Well, General Shinozuka, what do you mean?"
"What I mean is that Yamamoto Kazuki Daisa will lead his special forces to sneak into the background of the Eighth Route Army to conduct special reconnaissance on them, and then find the enemy's artillery positions, and then send heavy artillery brigades to secretly go to the front line, and then we will directly shell the heavy artillery positions of the Eighth Route Army! Destroy and suppress their artillery positions! At the same time, I will command several brigades of the First Army to launch a fierce attack on the Eighth Route from different directions! Yoshio Shinozuka said categorically.
"Well, General Shinozuka's opinion is good, but I think General Shimada's opinion is also very reasonable, in this way, we will take a multi-pronged approach, General Shinozuka, this time the North China Command will give you the greatest support, you must destroy all the enemy's heavy artillery units!"
"You can let Yamamoto Kazuki Osa lead his special forces to reconnoitre, and at the same time, our side will also prepare for the attack according to Shimada-kun's method, and these plans will be executed together when the time comes! Be sure to be foolproof! ”
"Hey! Your Excellency Commander, wise! Yoshio Shinozuka directly lowered his head.
"Then let's leave the meeting at a dismission, and I'll get the secret services to cooperate with your work." The old devil who sat in the main seat nodded.
"Hey!" Everyone stood up from their positions and bowed.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the conference room, and then a big Zuo quickly walked in, walked to the ear of the old devil in the main seat and said a few words.
"Let him in."
"Hey!"
Soon, a Shao Zuo walked in with a piece of information.
"General Shinozuka, listen, this is the latest battle report from the front."
"The generals have just received an urgent report from the front that the Eighth Route Army located in the western part of our encirclement has a tendency to move on a large scale, and it seems that they want to open the passage between us and Cangyunling, because the encirclement troops in the south and west of our side have retreated and cannot prevent the enemy from joining forces."
"Let's talk about it."
"This intelligence just shows that our guess is correct, the number of cannons in the hands of the Eighth Route Army is definitely not much, and their idea is very simple, that is, they want to secretly transport the cannons directly from the west to their base area."
"We have to stop them."
"That's right."
"But there is a distance of more than 300 kilometers from Cangyunling to the middle of the other party's border area, such a distance, the road is very tortuous, and there are almost no roads in many places, their transportation speed is not fast at all, and in the Yellow River and other nearby areas, although it is under the control of the Eighth Route Army, but it is not far from here, it is the territory of the Jin Sui Army, I think, the Jin Sui Army should not let them pass so easily."
"And the Eighth Route Army has no cars, they only have mules and horses, and the speed of heavy artillery transported by mules and horses will be very slow, from here, they are estimated to not be able to reach their destination in a month, I think this is just their feint, in order to make us give up this encirclement and suppression." Yoshio Shinozuka said categorically.
For the terrain here, Yoshio Shinozuka is very clear to them, and it is impossible for the Eighth Route Army to have cars, not to say that there are none, but they only have a limited number of cars, but there are absolutely no in the Cangyunling area!
It has not been a day or two since they fought with the Eighth Route Army in this area, and this area of Cangyunling is not suitable for automobiles, and in many places cars cannot drive at all. Otherwise, they would have knocked down the Eighth Route Army long ago.
But more than 100 heavy artillery, if only relied on mules and horses to drag and transport, they would not be able to reach the edge of the Yellow River in less than a month, not to mention less than 300 kilometers, but almost all of them are mountainous! There aren't many plains!
So Yoshio Shinozuka felt that the other party definitely didn't want to transfer like this.
"General Shinozuka, you go on." Jun Tada, who was sitting on the main seat, nodded.
"My opinion is that we don't care, the troops in charge of these two directions can retreat, and if they really want to transport heavy artillery to retreat like this, this gives us an opportunity, because once the heavy artillery is delivered, there are some places that are not suitable for deployment."
"At that time, their heavy artillery was no different from waste, and it was close to a month, enough time for our bomber group to bomb them many times, and I believe that the secret services could not even find such information."
"So, this is definitely a feint on the part of the enemy, just to convince us of this, and I think we are holding our ground and responding to all changes, and we are still carrying out our plan."
"Yes, then so be it, General Shinozuka, you still have full command of this battle." Tada Jun nodded.
"Hey!"
……
Of course, Han Shuang didn't know the plan of the Japanese army, but Han Shuang could actually guess it, because they didn't have a choice, as long as they referred to the strength in their hands and the things they could use, they could probably guess what kind of action they could make.
It's not hard to guess at all.
Therefore, Brigade Commander Chen and some of the old carpenters found by his brigade are working hard at the moment.
In fact, it is very simple to make these fake cannons made of wood, as long as you make a cannon barrel, as for the lower part can be covered with straw or something, it is normal for the enemy to see such a costume from the air or from a distance, because it is hidden.
As for the time when these wooden heavy artillery pieces are used as bombing targets, the enemy's fighters and bombers are at least at an altitude of about a kilometer, and if they can tell the difference between wood and steel from a distance of a few hundred meters or a thousand meters, Han Shuang counts them as awesome.
The style of the heavy artillery was painted by Han Shuang, and it is basically not much different from the 150 mm caliber heavy artillery of World War II.
In this way, five days passed in the blink of an eye, and I have to say that there are many talents in these teams of the Eighth Route Army, although there are only seven or eight carpenters found, but others can help with some less important work, so the progress of these carpenters is very fast.
At present, fifty or sixty cannon barrels have been camouflaged, and the outside of these cannon barrels has also been coated with special metallic paint by Han Shuang, the metallic paint of modern technology, after polishing the very smooth and round wood, not to mention the sky, from more than ten meters away, it is no different from steel!
Now, I'm waiting to act for the little devil!
