Chapter 1251: The Commander Is Also Underestimated (First Update!) )

Look at the translator, cold sweat keeps pouring out on his forehead.

The chief of staff probably guessed the translator's concerns: he must have heard something insulting to the Imperial Army.

In order to find out the true situation of Laishui, Shen Sheng ordered.

"You can say whatever the other party says, and you can't hide a word, even if there is something unfavorable to the imperial army, I will not hold you responsible."

"Thank you, Taijun......" the translator let out a long breath.

After wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, he reported: "The person who answered the phone claimed to be the Eighth Route Army, and he was also the head of an independent regiment operating in Laishui......"

"He said that the imperial army's garrison in Laishui was too incompetent, and it was eaten clean by the independent regiment in just one night, and the county seat was also taken down......"

"I also let the humble post thank the imperial army for the food and supplies prepared for them in Laishui County."

"With this food, the independent regiment will not be short of food for at least two years."

The chief of staff was furious, his eyes became redder and redder, and he finally couldn't hold back when he was about to erupt into flames.

He slammed his fist on the table in front of him and scolded.

"Yaga! It's an insult to the Imperial Army, I'm going to kill him......"

Then he hurried to the commander.

"Sir, there's an accident at the front!" The chief of staff rushed into the office and hurriedly reported.

"Laishui County was captured by the Independent Regiment, and all the garrisons were wiped out."

The commander was studying the map, and his first reaction when he heard the news was disbelief.

Although the garrison of Laishui is not as good as that of Yi County, it adds up to more than 2,000 people.

The Eighth Route Army, which was active in their defense area, had only one independent regiment, and its equipment was poor, and its combat effectiveness was not even as good as that of a squadron of the Imperial Army, so how could it be possible to capture Laishui County.

The chief of staff knew that the commander did not believe it, and continued to report: "The lowly post has just sent someone to call the Laishui garrison brigade, but the person who answered the phone is a Chinese, and he claims to be the head of the independent regiment. ”

"The telephone of the garrison headquarters is in the county town, there are heavy defenses, and there are special personnel on duty, unless the imperial troops there are all dead, otherwise the Chinese are not qualified to get close to the phone, let alone answer the phone and insult the imperial army on the phone."

"The Chinese, who claimed to be the head of the independent regiment, said on the phone: The imperial army's garrison in Laishui has been completely wiped out by them, and there is no longer a single imperial army in Laishui."

The commander couldn't sit still.

The problem of Yixian being captured by the Eighth Route Army has not been solved, and Laishui has been occupied again.

If Yixian County includes one-third of the highway for the imperial army to go south, Laishui includes half of it, and if you lose it for a day, there will be a large amount of supplies that will not be able to go south.

After thinking for two minutes, he began to give an order: "Contact the aviation unit, immediately send the aircraft team to Laishui to conduct low-altitude reconnaissance, and report any news immediately." ”

"The imperial army of two infantry brigades was transferred from the county towns around Laishui, and the troops were divided into two roads and approached Laishui."

"Before twelve o'clock in the afternoon, these two troops must be killed near Laishui."

"After the aviation forces figured out the real situation in Laishui, the two units will kill me to recapture Laishui and eliminate the independent regiment."

The former enemy headquarters of the Laishui County Independent Regiment, the regiment commander put down the phone, saw that several people were all staring at him dumbfounded, and immediately explained.

"Political commissar, didn't the superiors just order us to make a fuss about Laishui County, fight two more battles, and expand the results? I'll start now. ”

"Scolding the devil with the devil's phone at the devil's command headquarters, the little devil on the other end of the phone will definitely not be able to stand it."

The political commissar immediately reacted: "Regiment commander, you want to provoke the devils and force them to send troops to counterattack Laishui, we are here to wait for the rabbit!" ”

"Those who know me, the political commissar too!" The head of the regiment replied with a smile.

grinning and continuing: "I deliberately reported myself on the phone to tell the devil that we are an independent regiment. ”

"Before the change of clothes, the independent regiment was notoriously poorly equipped and had poor combat effectiveness, and the little devils within a radius of one or two hundred miles knew it."

"Now that we have changed our clothes, our combat effectiveness is several times stronger than before, but the little devils around us don't know, and they will definitely look at us with old eyes and deal with us."

"Then our chance will come."

"Of course, the little devil is not stupid, he will definitely not listen to my words, and eighty percent will conduct aerial reconnaissance before sending troops."

"So we're going to put on a show for the devil reconnaissance plane, so that they can despise us."

"You are responsible for this matter political commissar, organize the baggage company, the recruit company, and organize some villagers to rush the grain we have seized in the county seat."

"After you run into the little devil's plane, drop the seizure and run away for me, the more chaotic the better."

"The three battalions and seven companies rushed to Liuzhuang, 15 kilometers east of the city, relying on the favorable terrain to build a blocking position, and ran away for me after encountering the devil's plane."

"If the devil infantry attacks you, and the strength is less than a squad, find a way to eat it."

"The troops are more than a squad, and the troops are fighting and retreating, leading the devils to the vicinity of the county seat, and I will personally clean them up."

"The third battalion and the eighth company went to Hutouling, thirteen kilometers north of the city, to build a blocking position relying on favorable terrain, and the task was the same as that of the seventh company."

"The Ninth Company went to Xuejia Village in the south of the city, and the task was the same as that of the Seventh and Eighth Companies."

"Three companies will leave now."

"The reconnaissance platoon will also be dispatched, and I will keep an eye on the two counties closest to us in a squad unit."

As soon as the telegram from the North China Front Headquarters of the Japanese Army and the Aviation Corps arrived, the chief of staff rushed into the commander's office.

"Sir, the aviation has completed its reconnaissance, Laishui County is indeed occupied by the Eighth Route Army, and they are rushing to the mountains to transport grain."

"In the east, north, and south of Laishui City, the Eighth Route Army relied on favorable terrain to establish blocking positions."

"The opponent's equipment is very poor, and there is no way to face the low-flying reconnaissance plane, but to dodge."

"No heavy weapons have been found in the three interdiction positions under construction."

"Judging from the color of the enemy's uniforms: they are independent regiments and some local troops, and no other Eighth Route Army has been found."

The Eighth Route Army was notoriously poor, and many troops could not even get together cotton clothes for the winter, let alone be issued with uniform uniforms.

In order to distinguish between the main force and the non-main force, each base area can only find its own way and be self-sufficient.

Some use captured Japanese puppet army uniforms for transformation, while others produce their own.

This has led to the fact that although the styles of the uniforms of the Eighth Route Army in various places are similar, the colors are varied.

Some military uniforms directly maintain the color of the military uniforms of the Japanese puppet army, and some military uniforms are dyed by themselves.

The independent regiment was isolated behind the enemy, and its military uniforms were produced and dyed by itself, which was more or less different from the nearby Eighth Route Army.

Therefore, the devil can generally judge where the Eighth Route Army comes from, whether it is the main force, and which unit it belongs to by the color of the military uniform.

The commander did not have any doubts about the results of the investigation, and ordered on the spot: "Since Laishui County was taken by the independent regiment, then this matter will be easy to handle." ”

"Although it is not clear what conspiracy the independent regiment used to capture Laishui County and annihilate all the Laishui garrisons. But we all know the strength of this independent regiment, it is very weak, and it is not as good as an infantry squadron of the Imperial Army. ”

"Tell the front-line attacking troops that I not only ask them to recapture Laishui County, but also want them to completely annihilate the independent regiment, and it is best to capture a few prisoners and come back to find out how Laishui was captured by them."

"Hey, let's go give the order now!"
