Li Yunlong said: "Even if there are not a thousand, there will always be five hundred strongholds. ”

Zhao Gang said: "Especially on both sides of the Tongpu railway line, there are strongholds all over the place, which is simply a turret in five miles and a small stronghold in ten miles. ”

Wang Yan said: "That's what I'm going to say. ”

"We don't have heavy weapons, and it's too hard to storm the turret stronghold."

"And the devils are all learning to be obedient now, and they generally don't hoard too many materials in the turret stronghold, so sometimes they work hard to build the turret stronghold, but they lose their capital."

The brigade commander said: "There are indeed such cases, and there are quite a few of them. ”

Wang Yan said: "Therefore, before the large-scale popularization of heavy weapons, especially artillery with a caliber of more than 70 mm, I believe that it is not appropriate to carry out targeted combat operations to clear the artillery towers of strongholds. ”

Zhao Gang said: "Lao Wang, do you mean to keep the stronghold and not fight?" ”

"Yes." Wang Yan said, "As long as the devil doesn't repair the turret stronghold under our noses, don't pay attention to it!" We specialize in their shipping lines. ”

"The devil's turret stronghold has as few as a dozen people and as many as hundreds of people, all of whom want to eat, drink, and Lazar, right?"

"The devil puppet army is hiding in the turret and stronghold, we can't do anything about them, but it is a piece of cake for the transport team to ambush them halfway."

"We're going to focus on the little devil's transport lines."

"The advantage of this is that the cost input is small, but the benefit is high."

"From the perspective of risk-return ratio, this is the most cost-effective tactic to deal with devils at this stage."

"That's what you mean by immature thinking?" The brigade commander said, "This tactic has been used in various base areas, but it also has drawbacks. ”

"It's easy for devils to shrink their forces and abandon remote turret strongholds."

"Because the transportation line of the remote turret stronghold is easy to ambush."

"And if we want to ambush the devil's convoy on the plains or on the road or railway line, it will be very difficult, because the little devil's mechanized troops can be quickly reinforced."

Wang Yan said: "That's why we have to find a way to help the devil 'keep' the remote turret stronghold." ”

"Help the devil 'keep' the remote turret stronghold?" The three of them, the brigade commander, moved slightly when they heard this.

Wang Yan continued: "Especially those stronghold turrets that go deep into the core area of our base area and pose a serious threat to me, we must 'help' the devils to keep it as much as possible. ”

"As long as these stronghold turrets are still there, the devils will continue to give them blood transfusions."

"As long as the devils are willing to give them blood transfusions, we can guard the devils' communication lines and eat and drink spicy food."

"Of course, we can't catch a sheep to gather wool, otherwise if we are ruthless, the little devil may grit his teeth and give up this stronghold, and the gains outweigh the losses."

"So, be sure to master the goodness."

The brigade commander said: "The question is, how to help?" ”

Zhao Gang said: "Lao Wang, what do you mean, how many times do you feint first?" The momentum should be as big as possible, but in the end it can't be won, and then the Japanese army will continue to increase investment? That's what it means, right? ”

"yes, that's basically what it means." Wang Yan said, "However, it is not enough for us to sing a one-man show, because no matter how realistic the one-man show is, there will always be flaws." ”

"When you meet a clever Japanese commander, it's easy to see through our intentions."

"At that time, in order to stop losses in time, it is possible for the devils to give up these turret strongholds."

Speaking of this, Wang Yan said with a smile: "So you have to have the cooperation of the puppet army." ”

"The cooperation of the puppet army?" The brigade commander said, "You mean to plot against the puppet army?" Sing a double reed with us? ”

"To be precise, it is the officers who rebelled against the puppet army, not the entire puppet army." Wang Yan said, "Moreover, there is another advantage to doing this, through the double reed between us and the puppet army, we can accumulate combat merits for the pseudo-officer anyway, so as to push him to the position of battalion commander, regiment commander and even mixed brigade commander!" ”

"If one of ours becomes a brigade commander, hehe."

"Brigade commander, can you imagine what the Shanxi battlefield will be like when the Devil Mountain is exhausted and we launch a full-scale counteroffensive?"

The brigade commander's eyes lit up instantly.

Wang Yan's idea is undoubtedly very lethal.

The point is, the idea is also very operational.

It is still very difficult to rebel against the pseudo-officers above the battalion commander.

However, it is still relatively easy to rebel against pseudo officers below the company commander, and there are not many pseudo-officers in the Eighth Route Army who rebel.

And the most powerful part of this method can also help the pseudo-officers who have been anyway to be promoted all the way, become battalion commanders, regiment commanders, or even mixed brigade commanders, which is very terrifying.

Wang Yan continued: "But there is one point, there can't be many such strongholds. ”

"As soon as this amount is large, it is easy to make mistakes, and then lose all the games."

"And as long as there are many such strongholds, the pressure on the devils will be great."

"Once the devil's tolerance limit is exceeded, it is still possible to abandon it."

"For example, our Independent Regiment." Wang Yan patted the map and said, "There are three strongholds with the greatest threat, namely Xiji stronghold, Xiaocaozhuang stronghold, and Niuzhuang stronghold. ”

"Among them, the Xiaocaozhuang stronghold and the Niuzhuang stronghold are like a pair of crabs' big pincers, clamping the left and right waists of my base."

"And the Xiji stronghold is like a sharp boning knife, directly entrusting the henchmen of my base area to Zhaojiayu, and more importantly, the three strongholds are all open to the highway!"

"So these three strongholds should be the top priority."

Speaking of this, Wang Yan took out a pencil again and drew a circle in the Xiji stronghold, Niuzhuang stronghold and Xiaocaozhuang stronghold, only to see that the three red circles were in the shape of a pinzigzag, which were located in the north, south and east of Zhaojiayu.

These three strongholds are all about twenty kilometers away from Zhaojiayu.

The brigade commander's brows furrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "Is there a devil stronghold west of Zhaojiayu?" ”

"It turns out that there is a devil's stronghold." Wang Yan said, "However, a month ago, I was pulled out by the 1st Battalion of the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army, and it was precisely because of this operation that I annoyed the devils, so I made a big move to prepare to enter the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army." ”

"But before I could do it, the officers of the devil puppet army who participated in the sweep were served in a pot."

"So, behind your independent regiment is Chu Yunfei's 358th regiment?" The brigade commander said in a deep voice, "At this stage, Yan Laoxi shouldn't be able to play yin, but you must not be careless. ”

"You can't have the heart to harm others, but the heart to prevent people is indispensable."

"For Chu Yunfei's 358 regiment, you must pay more attention."

Li Yunlong said: "Don't worry, brigade commander, Chu Yunfei is still a man, but his 358th regiment is just a piece of meat in the mouth of our independent regiment, he doesn't play yin, if he dares to play yin, he can eat him with his backhand." ”
