Now that the crux of the loss has been found, the next thing we need to do is to prescribe the right medicine.

Hong Linfeng hurriedly asked, "Regiment leader, how are we going to fight next?" ”

"The old way, will be calculated."

Li Hao replied with a murderous look on his face.

"Isn't the devil going to take the initiative to attack, use a mobile force as bait, drag us down, and wait until all the other mobile forces are in place before encircling us and eating us?"

"Then we'll fulfill their wish."

"And those Imperial Allies, they are really more than enough to deal with our guerrillas."

"If you add some local troops to the battle, the result will be different."

"The devil wants to take his own strengths and attack the enemy's shortcomings, and we can also do the opposite!"

"After more than a month of actual combat training, the progress of all units has been very rapid, and the combat effectiveness of the main force of the garrison regiment and the local units has long been different from what it used to be."

"There are only so many troops left in the blockade base area and the blockade line, and there is no need for so many troops."

"I decided to increase the size of sorties entering the guerrilla zone."

"The size of the local troops should also be increased, and Nakata Yama Lang will fight clearly, and take this opportunity to kill and injure a large number of Japanese puppet army attack troops, severely damage them, and force the devils to independently form a brigade to participate in the war."

Hong Linfeng smiled, this was also what he dreamed of.

The troops fought petty battles and fought guerrilla attacks with devils in squads and platoons, and he, the chief of staff, was almost useless.

As a militant, he couldn't help it for a long time.

Sometimes I even have the idea of directly leading a platoon into the guerrilla zone, and then have the addiction of fighting guerrilla warfare.

But this idea is clearly not possible.

As chief of staff, he must stay in the rear and assist the regiment commander in controlling the overall situation.

However, as long as the regiment commander decides to change the small fight into a big fight, his dream of going to the battlefield will have a chance to come true.

With so many troops on the battlefield, it is definitely necessary for a former enemy to command and coordinate operations.

The regiment commander needs to stay at the regimental headquarters and control the overall situation, and he himself has become the best candidate for the commander-in-chief of this former enemy.

The more Hong Linfeng thought about it, the happier he became, and immediately replied: "Commander, I agree to fight with the little devil." ”

"According to the intelligence, many of the devil's strongholds have been killed and killed by our petty fights, and after this sortie, Nakata Yamaro will definitely see our purpose."

"Rather than waiting for them to see what we are trying to do, we will actively shrink our defenses, and finally kill and injure them in large numbers by attacking the stronghold."

"It's better to take the initiative now, while their troops are outside, and fight a few more battles of annihilation."

"The results will definitely be greater, and the casualties will be lower."

The support of the chief of staff strengthened Li Hao's determination.

He immediately ordered, "Then do it." ”

"Chief of Staff, make a battle plan immediately."

"The remaining three strongholds in the base area are all handed over to the three county brigades for encirclement, and each battalion draws out a reinforced company, equipped with mortars and flying thunder cannons, to assist the county brigade in encircling the Japanese puppet army inside, if the Japanese puppet army wants to get out of the city, resolutely kill it."

"However, the entire change of guard must be carried out in secret, and the devil must not be allowed to know in advance."

"The remaining troops of the special service battalion, the second battalion, and the third battalion are divided into nine routes, and each road is reinforced with two district squadrons, a mountain artillery platoon, a heavy mortar platoon, and a flying thunder artillery platoon.

"The troops continue to divide their troops, and the district squadrons are divided into squads and platoons to cooperate with the guerrillas in combat, even if they can't completely annihilate the puppet army sent by the devils, I will inflict heavy losses on them."

"The main force fights the devil mobile troops."

"Didn't the little devil want to use a mobile force or a stronghold as bait, and then surround us and annihilate us completely?"

"We just planned to use the tactics of encirclement and reinforcements, and gathered heavy troops to kill a few mobile troops!"

"After that, directly launch an attack on the target stronghold and the target troops, and completely solve the other party."

The headquarters of the Japanese army's independent mixed brigade, Nakata Yama Lang's solemn face finally showed a long-lost smile.

This is the first time that he has received good news since he took office as brigade commander for more than a month.

Although the result is not large, it is a good omen.

The chief of staff complimented at the right time: "General, the results of the Imperial Allied Army have not yet been counted, judging from the battlefield situation, they have also won, so the victory we achieved last night was definitely greater than expected." ”

"Judging by the humble judgment, the number of enemies they have destroyed must be more than five hundred."

"In this way, the Eighth Route Army we eliminated last night exceeded 1,200 people, which is definitely a big victory."

"At the same time, this battle also proves that the battle plan you formulated at the beginning, brigade commander, is correct."

"Yo Si!

The smile on Nakata Shanlang's face became even stronger, and he immediately ordered: "Since this is the case, then we will kill thousands of more Eighth Route Army according to this plan." ”

"The guerrillas, in particular, operating in the areas we occupy, must be eliminated."

"For more than a month, the crux of the continuous defeat of the imperial army lies in them."

"Now is an opportunity to solve this crux of the problem once and for all, and we must not let it go."

"Chief of Staff, you will arrange to continue to strengthen the strength of the Imperial Army."

"When the time comes, the superiority in troops, terrain, and firepower will all be on our side, and it will be difficult for the Imperial Allied Army to win."

On the road leading to Chenzhuang's stronghold, more than 200 devils and more than 400 puppet soldiers were marching in a hurry.

The Chenzhuang stronghold was attacked by the main force of the garrison ten minutes ago, and they had to arrive at the battlefield within an hour.

"Dada...... Bang bang bang ......"

A machine gun and a dozen rifles suddenly opened fire on an earthen beam on the side of the road.

The gunfire was short, but the power was not small at all, especially when all the weapons were concentrated for concentrated fire.

The neat queue was directly punched out of a gap, and the four devils fell to the ground in response, two dead and two wounded.

The devils had obviously been trained in this area, and after being attacked, not only did the formation not be chaotic, but they did not stop for a moment, bypassing the corpses and the wounded and continuing to advance.

The puppet army moved, and a whole company of nearly 100 people rushed out of the ranks, and under the command of the company commander and the three devils, they pounced like wolves on the mountain beam where the gun had just been fired, and the speed was very fast.

If any of the puppet soldiers ran a little slower, they would immediately attract a big scold from the devil. If they were ruthless, the devils rushed over directly and punched and kicked them, urging them to speed up and not be cowardly.

The retreating figures of a dozen partisans soon came into their view.

The company commander led by the puppet army seemed to see a pile of gold ingots, and his eyes lit up and shouted: "Brothers, we have shit luck today." There were less than twenty partisans in front, also armed with a machine gun. As long as they are killed, the imperial army will be rewarded, and each brother will have at least ten pieces of ocean. ”

There are many people in the team who work for the devil and come to the ocean.

When they heard that there was an ocean to take, their eyes began to glow.

Moreover, there were indeed less than twenty guerrillas in front, and the fact that the enemy was weak and we were strong further increased their confidence.

Nearly 100 people, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, rushed forward with a scream.

However, the results have disappointed them again and again.

Every time they looked like they were about to catch up, several bullets flew in front of them.

Nearly 100 people were crowded on the mountain road, and as long as the shooting direction was not wrong, these bullets and blind cats could kill one or two puppet soldiers.

The puppet army wants money, but is more afraid of death.

In the face of imminent death, the pace of pursuit subconsciously slows down, and don't rush to the front to find death.

The guerrillas often took advantage of this opportunity to speed up and re-widen the distance.

The two sides chased after each other, and soon moved away from the road and into the hilly terrain.

"Bang ......"

The familiar sound of gunfire rang out again, this time noticeably more dense than the previous ones, and on the side of the mountain road.

The puppet army with a quick reaction subconsciously lay on the ground, and it took several seconds for the slow reaction to lie down.

Machine guns, rifles, and the guns fired just now were all the same.

When there was no movement on the hill, the puppet army stopped shooting.

At this time, they were surprised to find that the three devils in the team were all dead, and they fell to the ground motionless.

There were also several puppet soldiers lying next to them, obviously affected by stray bullets, killed or wounded.

The company commander of the puppet army was taken aback, but he quickly reacted from the panic and ordered with a calm face: "Continue the pursuit, we must kill a few guerrillas today and pay for the lives of the imperial army who are looking for death, otherwise there is no way to explain to the above, and everyone in the company will be held accountable." ”

The company commander didn't realize that his order had completely ruined the company.

It was not the guerrillas who had just been shot, but the local units that were fighting with them.

A whole platoon, armed with a light machine gun.

Seeing that the devils continued to pursue deep into the hills, the platoon commander who led the team made the decision to annihilate them at that time.

Immediately lead the super small road to the front, and then arrange a pocket array for them.

This time it was the puppet army officer and machine gunner in the middle of the team who were going to fight.

In the Chenzhuang stronghold, the mobile troops that arrived first pounced as expected.

The leader of the devil squadron was not angry, but stood outside the stronghold with a calm face and waited for news.

He has already sent out the reconnaissance force, and if nothing else, news will be sent back in a few minutes.

"Sir, we have found the direction of the retreat of the Eighth Route Army, judging from the footprints left on the ground, the other side is at least 300 people, and it is also equipped with mules and horses, which should be used to carry heavy weapons and ammunition, and the enemy situation reported by the Chenzhuang stronghold is the same." The leader of the reconnaissance detachment rushed over and gasped and reported.

This is the news that the squadron leader has been waiting for, and as soon as he raised his eyebrows, he began to give orders.

"This is definitely the goal we are going to take, gather our troops, and immediately pursue them...... The reconnaissance detachment went out to reconnoiter to prevent the troops from getting into the enemy's pocket formations arranged in advance. ”

"If you catch up with the main force of the retreating garrison regiment and attack them directly, you don't need to ask for instructions."

"From now on, we are the bait for the encirclement and annihilation of this Eighth Route Army."

"Catch up with them, hold them down at all costs, and wait for the follow-up mobile troops to arrive at the scene before attacking them inside and outside to encircle and annihilate them."
