Chapter 689: Plan Ahead (Second Update!) )
The scolding lasted for five minutes before the anger on the commander's face subsided!
With a gloomy and terrible face, he strode over to the sand table and began to give orders!
"Pass my order: All troops stationed around the base area of the Lingqiu Garrison Regiment of the Eighth Route Army that are less than one squadron in size immediately retreat and withdraw directly to the surrounding large strongholds!"
"It's not clear what exactly this secret weapon is, but the fact that the garrison regiment can use them to kill our three infantry brigades in one night is enough to prove the great power of this secret weapon!"
"An infantry brigade garrison can be swallowed by them in one gulp, let alone those strongholds where the garrison is smaller than an infantry squadron!"
"Also, order all the surrounding large stronghold garrisons, build houses on the periphery of the stronghold to block the position, build at least three lines of defense to come out, and the distance between the defense lines must be large, and the troops should be scattered and arranged in each combat position of the stronghold as much as possible, do not concentrate!"
"It can be seen from the farewell telegrams of the three brigades that the power of the shells fired by this secret weapon is amazing, and when it explodes, a large area will be exploded, and the radius of thirty meters around the impact point is its killing radius!"
"If our forces are too dense, the garrison can kill most of our squad with a single shell!"
"As long as they have enough ammunition, no amount of troops we have will be enough for them to consume!"
"Also, immediately report what happened to us to the front headquarters and report it truthfully!"
"The secret weapons equipped by the garrison regiment are too powerful, and the existing heavy weapons of the garrisons around Lingqiu are no longer opponents, so we need heavy artillery support!"
"Please send at least one heavy mortar squadron and a field artillery brigade to reinforce the Lingqiu front!"
"If it's possible, it would be better to send an independent heavy artillery brigade over!"
"With these heavy artillery, no matter what the secret weapon of the garrison regiment is, as long as you dare to show your head again, you are guaranteed to blow them all into slag!"
The commander is a battle-hardened veteran!
Although the garrison has not yet shown any signs of continuing the offensive outward!
But the commander has his own judgment!
If he is the commander of the garrison regiment, he will definitely take advantage of the victory to pursue and continue the attack!
The reason why he didn't move now must be planning some bigger conspiracy!
And what he has to do is to take precautions, once the garrison continues to attack, ensure that the imperial army blocks the garrison offensive at the minimum cost!
When the heavy artillery of the waiting army reinforcements arrives, the imperial army can launch a counterattack, repel the attack of the garrison, and even severely damage and kill them!
The former enemy headquarters of the Dongzhuang Garrison Regiment, the communication platoon commander Zhou Liangfeng, rushed in like a wind, very anxious!
"Regiment commander, the commando team is urgent!"
"The Japanese puppet army outside Lingqiu City has begun to retreat!"
"In particular, the outposts and artillery towers were all completely withdrawn, and they were withdrawn in a very hurry, and many of the little devils in the artillery towers only brought weapons and ammunition, and ran away without even bringing food. Hurry up and retreat to a nearby stronghold! ”
"Up to now, the Japanese puppet army with only four strongholds left outside Lingqiu City has not retreated!"
"They are located outside the four gates of Lingqiu, and they are the only out-of-city positions for the devils to defend Lingqiu City!"
"Also, the Japanese puppet army of the four strongholds has just suddenly left the strongholds, desperately digging fortifications around and repairing ring fortifications!"
As soon as he finished speaking, another newspaper operator rushed in, even more anxious than Zhou Liang, the commander of the communications platoon!
"Regiment commander, chief of staff, platoon commander, reconnaissance company emergency!"
"The little devils in the direction of Laiyuan are also retreating!"
"Just like the little devils outside Lingqiu City, the Japanese puppet army in the small stronghold and the turret have all been withdrawn cleanly, and all the troops have been concentrated in the nearby big stronghold!"
"The Japanese puppet army in the big stronghold has also all left the stronghold and built ring fortifications around it!"
"Not good!"
Li Hao's eyebrows were immediately twisted into a Sichuan character!
"The devil commander is too powerful, although we don't have any changes now, and the troops are on standby, but he still sees it!"
"Not surprisingly, the devil commander has already guessed that we will continue to fight, and then he took the initiative to shrink his forces!"
"We have Flying Thunder Cannons, those small strongholds and turrets have limited troops, and Flying Thunder Cannons only need one explosive package to reimburse all the defenders!"
"Instead of being easily killed by us when attacking and adding to our results, it is better to take the initiative to retreat, concentrate on the big stronghold, and hold on to the reinforcements!"
"In addition, the Japanese puppet army is building ring fortifications around large strongholds, it must be to guard against flying thunder cannons!"
"The devil doesn't know that our secret weapon is the Flying Thunder Cannon, but its power on the battlefield must know!"
"As soon as the flying thunder cannon explodes a large area, if the Japanese puppet army sticks to the stronghold, as long as we have enough explosives bags and shoot close to the stronghold, no matter how many little devils there are, we won't be able to blow it up!"
"In order to guard against our flying thunder cannons, the little devil thought of repairing fortifications outside the stronghold and spreading his troops as much as possible!"
"In this way, even if we use the Flying Thunder Cannon, they can hold out for a longer time with their limited strength and wait for reinforcements!"
"The little devil is calculating, take precautions, and everything is in front of us!"
Hong Linfeng was anxious, and immediately asked, "Commander, what should we do?" ”
"The little devil has already taken precautions, should we cancel our operation immediately!"
"Killing the three brigades of the devils in one night, this result is already big enough for our garrison regiment, not only to complete the equipment of the troops, but also to successfully break the blockade of the devils on us!"
"I mean, change the large-scale counterattack to a local counterattack, and the appetite is not so big at one time, first take down dozens of villages and towns around the base area, and then find a way to expand outward step by step and take a few surrounding counties!"
Li Hao didn't move, his brows continued to twist!
After staring at the map and thinking for a full five minutes, a pair of eyes quickly shot out two fine lights, and his face changed from solemn to determined!
"Don't miss the opportunity and never come again, the original plan of action remains the same!"
Hong Linfeng was even more anxious, and immediately reminded: "Think twice, head of the regiment!" ”
"The devil is ready, kill it now, isn't that self-defeating? Even if we use the Flying Thunder Cannon, even if we can achieve the final goal in the end, we will lose our troops, and if we don't do it, we will lose more than we lose! ”
Li Hao shook his head and replied, "No, you are wrong!" ”
"The little devil's precautions are not necessarily a bad thing for us, as long as the tactical tactics are used properly, bad things can also become good things!"
"A good thing?"
Hong Linfeng stared at a pair of big eyes, his face was full of incredulity!
The devil has gathered heavy troops to defend a large stronghold, and is overhauling the fortifications, which is very unfavorable to the garrison regiment in any way, Hong Linfeng can't think of anything that is beneficial to the garrison regiment!
Staring at Li Hao, he hurriedly asked, "Commander, I don't understand what you mean?" ”
