Head Zhou already had a picture in his mind.

Sixteen heavy artillery pieces, under the guidance of the artillery observation post, fired at the same time, staring at the devils.

In the rumbling of artillery, the fourteen chariots of the armored company followed the shells to break the temporary defense line that the Japanese puppet army might have formed, and the cavalry battalion followed closely behind to cover the kill......

If the independent regiment were faced with such an attack, it would definitely be defeated on the spot and become a mess.

The Japanese army also carries a head on both shoulders, and in front of heavy artillery and chariots, no matter how good the training is, it will become meaningless and can only be slaughtered.

So they're messing around too.

When fighting at night, the most feared thing is chaos.

Once the troops are in chaos, it is possible to bomb the camp, let alone face the cavalry troops who come and go like the wind.

There is at least an 80% chance that the entire battle will turn into a massacre.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and he strode to the side of the map: "Commander Li, Chief of Staff Hong, it's definitely okay to fight like this." ”

"We're going to choose the battlefield now."

Li Hao pointed to two points on the map and replied: "I have already chosen the battlefield, there are two: one ambush battlefield, and the other reinforcement battlefield." ”

At the Japanese military headquarters in Taiyuan, the commander was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, walking around the headquarters with his hands behind his back.

The atmosphere at the headquarters was also very solemn, and everyone was very careful to do what they were doing, and they didn't dare to take a breath for fear of attracting the attention of the commander.

The deputy chief of staff stood guard in the telecommunications room, watching the telegraph operator call over and over again, his expression nervous and anxious.

"Haven't you been in touch yet?" The deputy chief of staff couldn't help but ask.

The herald put down his headphones, shook his head and replied, "Not yet!" ”

"After the last contact ended at ten o'clock last night, we did not receive a single telegram from the reinforcements, and there was no response to contact them at three o'clock in the morning, and there has been no movement until now."

"Continue to contact ......," the deputy chief of staff ordered with a frown.

Hurriedly leaving the telecommunications room, he found the commander of the command, who was also anxious, and reported: "The communication radio has not yet contacted the reinforcements from Zhangjiakou in the past. ”

"The last time they sent a telegram, there were still more than 10 kilometers away from the county seat, and they were attacked by a cavalry unit of the Eighth Route Army."

"The reinforcements had more than 500 cavalry, and the telegram said that they were confident that they would eat this cavalry unit, and then they never sent a single telegram."

"Under normal circumstances, they can kill the county seat at one o'clock in the morning, and then report the situation there to the military headquarters."

"Considering that the Eighth Route Army might block them, we pushed the time to three o'clock in the morning."

"But I still haven't received a telegram from them."

"The staff officer on duty felt suspicious and immediately ordered the telecommunications room to take the initiative to contact them."

"But I haven't been able to get in touch."

The commander glanced at the sky outside and immediately ordered: "Contact the aviation troops, hurry up and conduct an aerial reconnaissance of the county seat, and we must find out what is happening there?" ”

"There were more than 2,000 reinforcements in Zhangjiakou in the past, of which 500 were cavalry, and I don't believe that the Eighth Route Army would have troops to destroy them while attacking the county seat."

"I don't believe it either!" The deputy chief of staff agreed.

Then began to analyze: "So far, no other Eighth Route Army has been found to join this sweep. Even if there were, the number of troops would be very small, otherwise we would not be able to escape our intelligence officers and local garrisons all over the no-man's land. ”

"If you add up all the local troops and guerrillas, the garrison regiment is less than 10,000 people."

"The troops left behind in the base area were able to keep an eye on our three-way attacking troops, and at the same time they had the energy to attack their logistical supply lines while protecting the common people, causing a large number of casualties to the sweeping troops, indicating that there were at least 2,000 troops of the Eighth Route Army operating around each attacking force."

"This means that the garrison regiment attacking the county seat is 3,000 people, and there are many local troops mixed in it."

"This point of strength is divided into two, and it is absolutely impossible to kill our more than 2,000 reinforcements in such a short time, and there is no chance to send a farewell telegram."

"Take 10,000 steps back, even if these Eighth Route Army give up attacking the county town and gather all the troops to besiege the reinforcements, they won't be able to do it."

"Let's contact the airline now, there must have been an accident there that we didn't know about?"

The commander stopped the deputy chief of staff, who wanted to leave, and after thinking for a few seconds, he added an order.

"Wait a minute, at the same time, order the intelligence department, the nearby county, immediately send intelligence officers, reconnaissance troops, and go deep into the battlefield to investigate, the faster the better."

"I'm worried that the Eighth Route Army will repeat its old tricks and smoke on the battlefield."

"In the past, the plane could only see some general conditions, and could not detect the details we wanted to know."

Three hours later, the return call from the aviation arrived.

There was not much content, and the deputy chief of staff read it at a glance, and a wry smile immediately flashed on his face.

The callback was exactly the same as the commander's concern three hours earlier.

Find the commander and report helplessly: "Your Excellency, the reconnaissance of the aviation has yielded results, and the situation is exactly the same as your judgment." ”

"The Eighth Route Army created a lot of smoke around the county, and the scope is even greater today."

"The entire section of the city wall in the east of the county and the 50-meter area inside the city are shrouded in black smoke."

"The gunfire is more intense than yesterday."

"Because there is a lot of anti-aircraft fire hidden in the black smoke, the aviation cannot conduct low-altitude reconnaissance."

On the way back, they searched all the roads and mountain roads around the county...... Not a single reinforcement was found within a radius of 20 kilometers, and there were no large-scale exchanges of fire except for sporadic blocking positions. ”

"Especially the road in Zhangjiakou to reinforce the county seat, they focused on searching, and only found a trench and dozens of corpses of imperial soldiers."

The army commander's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and after taking the telegram and reading it carefully, he analyzed: "The east wall of the county town is shrouded in black smoke, indicating that the Eighth Route Army has broken through the defense line in the east of the city and entered the county seat, but it was blocked by the garrison at a position of fifty meters inside the city. ”

"As for the reinforcements sent from Zhangjiakou, I still don't understand where they went?"

A very bold idea popped up in the deputy chief of staff's mind, and he hesitated for a long time before he spoke: "Commander, will the reinforcements have already entered the county seat?" ”

"Before the reinforcements arrived, there were only a thousand people in the city."

"The Eighth Route Army attacked for a day and a night, and it must have suffered heavy casualties."

"Once the city fortifications are breached, the few remaining garrisons should not be able to stop the attack of the Eighth Route Army."

"We all know that street fighting is the most troop-draining."

"Will there be such a possibility, the Eighth Route Army broke through the defense line in the east of the city last night and entered the county seat."

"Just in time for the reinforcements to arrive."

"In order to stabilize the battle situation, he had to give up the previous battle plan of internal and external attacks, hastily enter the county seat, and assist the defenders to block the Eighth Route Army entering the city."

"In the course of the battle, the radio station carried by the reinforcements was destroyed by the Eighth Route Army."

"I have studied the garrison regiment, and they like to strike first in war, destroying the opponent's command system and communication system, so as to hit the opponent's military morale."

"It cannot be ruled out that before the reinforcements arrived on the battlefield, the communication radio station had already been targeted by the Eighth Route Army."

"It just so happens that there is another chaotic battle at this time, and the Eighth Route Army will definitely not let go of this opportunity to destroy our communication station."
