1223 Is It Too Late? (First update!) )
Before the guerrilla brigade was reorganized, Wang Xin personally served as the leader of a guerrilla squad and trained them, so he knew exactly what was going on with the fighters under him.
One thing Wang Xin can confirm is that after two days of guerrilla warfare, everyone will certainly make considerable progress.
But there are definitely not a few company commanders who say so exaggeratedly, and they already have the strength to fight in the field with little devils.
Of the nearly 400 guerrillas, less than one-fifth of the fighters have undergone more than three months of training, and the rest of the members have only joined the guerrillas in the past three months.
The members from the puppet army are slightly better, and they have the training when they were in the puppet army, and they can form combat effectiveness after a short run-in.
Others don't.
Many of them had not fired a single live ammunition before participating in this guerrilla war.
In this case, let them fight face-to-face with the devil, which is no different from sending them to death.
Take 10,000 steps back, even if the guerrillas can carry the devil hard, Wang Xin will not do it.
This is because the guerrillas' current mode of warfare is mainly to show weakness.
This was the only way for the partisans to accomplish the tasks of the regimental headquarters.
If one of the little devils is killed through an ambush, the Japanese puppet army in the county town will definitely be vigilant, and then pay attention to themselves and send more troops to encircle and suppress the guerrillas.
At that time, the guerrillas would suffer heavy casualties under the pursuit of the Japanese puppet army, and they would be exhausted and would not have the energy or strength to paralyze the road.
The first task given to the guerrilla brigade by the regimental headquarters would have ended in failure.
Thinking of this, Wang Xin decisively refused: "In the next five days, the troops will still be dominated by guerrilla warfare sneak attacks on devils. ”
"As for the war of annihilation, don't even think about it."
"The only thing we have to think about now is how to complete the task assigned to us by the regiment headquarters without provoking the devils and attracting more devils."
"As for the war of annihilation, when we complete the task, there will be a chance to fight, not worse than these few days."
At the Japanese Garrison Headquarters in Yi County, Miki Nakasa hadn't had a smile on his face for several days, and the pressure on his shoulders was getting bigger and bigger day by day.
Just now, the headquarters of the front army called itself again: It demanded that the Yixian garrison clear the Eighth Route Army in the territory in the shortest possible time and restore the railway and highway leading to Baoding.
It was the Chief of Staff of the Front who called.
If you can't complete the task within the specified time and open the road to the south, the next time you call will be Your Excellency the commander.
He will definitely not be able to keep his position as the captain of the brigade, and he will be sent to a military court because of his ineffective combat.
"Eight Grid Tooth Road, I don't believe that there are so many imperial troops and imperial alliance troops on the front line, and even dozens of Eighth Route Army can't help it." Miki Nakasa decided to transfer the pressure exerted on him by the front command to his subordinates.
A pair of eyes were red and red, as if they were about to breathe fire.
Looking at the chief of staff with a murderous face, he ordered: "Chief of staff, there is no news from the three strongholds on the front line?" ”
"It's been three days since reinforcements were sent, and even if they dragnet the search, they should find out the Eighth Route Army hiding in the mountains."
The chief of staff didn't dare to look into the eyes of the captain, and replied with his head down: "Today's search has ended, and the three striking troops have only killed a dozen or so Eighth Route Army." ”
"The other Eighth Route Army didn't know how to do it, and once again bypassed the sweeping troops, ran near the road, and attacked the Imperial Allied Army and the Imperial Army who were overseeing the work, preventing us from repairing the road."
"So the task of repairing the road at the three strongholds has not been completed."
Miki Nakasa's anger intensified, and he shouted with a murderous face.
"Order: The commanders of the three strongholds are not fighting effectively, and all of them will apologize to His Majesty the Emperor on their own."
"The deputy captains of the three strongholds took over as commanders, and tomorrow they will continue to sweep the remaining Eighth Route Army, and all the roads destroyed by them will be repaired. The morning after tomorrow, the road connecting Baoding must be clear, otherwise they will also apologize to His Majesty the Emperor. ”
Perhaps because of the killing of someone, Miki Nakasa's anger has obviously subsided a lot.
It was only then that the chief of staff seized the opportunity to speak: "Sir, there is a bold guess in the lowly position, I don't know whether to say it or not!" ”
"When is it? What else is there to say. Miki scolded angrily.
"Hey!" The chief of staff replied!
"I feel that there are more than the Eighth Route Army in Yixian County that we judged at the beginning."
"Otherwise, when the imperial army was encircling and suppressing in the mountains, the Eighth Route Army appeared outside the mountains at the same time to attack our road repair troops, which is not logical."
"There must be units of the Eighth Route Army hidden on the front line that we don't know about."
Miki Nakasa's soothed brow furrowed again.
He also thought about this issue, but it was all rejected because of the sworn report of the front-line commander.
Now reminded by the chief of staff, the more Miki Nakasa thinks about it, the more likely he feels that this judgment is more likely.
In the past few days, he has been thinking about why one or two hundred imperial armies and more than two hundred imperial armies can't even pack up dozens of Eighth Route Army.
This question kept in his mind, and he couldn't figure it out.
If the Eighth Route Army operating on the front line is not a few dozen people, but one or two hundred, then this problem will be solved.
In the face of the heavy sweep of the imperial army, the Eighth Route Army could completely cover each other, escape from the encirclement of the imperial army again and again, and also fight in several places at the same time, playing the imperial army around.
"It must be so!" Miki Nakasa replied firmly.
Anger resurfaced.
If it weren't for the fact that the front-line commander repeatedly reported to him that there were dozens of people in the Eighth Route Army, he would have fought them as hundreds of people a long time ago, and maybe he would have won.
But it's not too late to react.
At this moment, there are still two days left before the deadline given to it by the command of the Front.
Now begin to transfer troops, set off overnight, rush to the front line, and let yourself go to destroy the Eighth Route Army there for at least two days.
Just do it, Miki Nakasa made a decision on the spot.
"Chief of Staff, order the Fourth Squadron, the Second Heavy Machine Gun Squad, the Second Artillery Squad, the Infantry Artillery Squad, the Guard Unit, and the Third Battalion and Seven Companies of the Imperial Allied Army to assemble immediately, replenish weapons and ammunition, and prepare for the attack."
"I gave them an hour to prepare, and then personally directed them to go to the front line to eliminate the Eighth Route Army there."
The chief of staff was frightened by this decision, and hurriedly reminded: "Sir, think twice, you are the captain of the garrison, you should sit in the county seat, and you should not go to the front line to take risks." ”
"If the commander believes in lowly duty, lowly is willing to lead troops to the front."
Miki shook his head and refused: "No! ”
"This battle is related to whether I can continue to sit in the position of captain, I don't want to put my fate in the hands of others, so I must go this time."
"After I leave, Chief of Staff, you will be in charge of the defense of Yi County, and we will contact the radio station if there is anything."
"In addition, after I led the team away, there was only one squadron left of the Imperial Army's combat troops in the city, which was definitely not enough. You have to boldly use the Imperial Army, let them assist the Imperial Army in defending the city, and ensure the safety of Yi County. ”
"Hey! I wish the commander a successful elimination of the Eighth Route Army and a triumphant return. ”
