Seeing that the army commander's eyes had been focused on the vicinity of Lingqiu, the chief of staff immediately asked, "Sir, are you still studying the garrison regiment of the Eighth Route Army?" ”

"Not bad!" The commander did not deny it.

"This garrison regiment has made us lose troops again and again, and we must find a way to completely solve this problem of henchmen."

The chief of staff thought for a moment and replied: "Sir, the intelligence department has not weakened its intelligence collection efforts on the garrison regiment. Judging from the information gathered so far, the garrison regiment is mainly composed of two types of troops. ”

"One is the main force, and the other is the local force whose combat effectiveness is no less than that of the main force."

"The main force consists of three main battalions, a cavalry battalion, an artillery battalion, an air defense battalion, and several directly subordinate companies, with a total strength of more than 3,000 people."

"The local army has four independent battalions, each of which has its own artillery and heavy machine gun units, which can independently conduct operations, with a total strength of about 800 people, adding up to more than 3,000 people."

"As long as the imperial army kills these more than 6,000 people, the garrison regiment will be in name only."

The commander nodded and asked, "Do you have any ideas in the staff!" ”

The chief of staff shook his head and replied with an embarrassed expression: "Not yet." ”

"The garrison regiment is too cunning, and it is very combative, well-equipped, and has plenty of ammunition, which is completely different from other Eighth Route Army units. Previously, the imperial army was attacking them in a focused manner, and it was a division of troops...... All kinds of tactics have been exhausted, and they still haven't been killed. ”

"So the General Staff has not yet thought of a better way to attack the garrison."

The commander replied with a serious face: "Since you have no ideas, then listen to me." ”

"To deal with the garrison, we can no longer rely only on the means of military attack as before, but we must combine other means to deal with this great trouble."

"What other means?" The chief of staff immediately asked.

The commander replied: "The economic blockade will first disrupt their base areas so that their soldiers and civilians are not as united as before, and then take advantage of the chaos to launch an attack." ”

The chief of staff asked puzzledly: "Sir, if I am not mistaken, our economic blockade of the garrison regiment has not stopped, but the problems of food shortage and material shortage in the base area have been resolved by them one by one, and the role played is very limited. ”

"That's because our economic lockdowns have been reactive, and the impact on them has been very small." The commander shouted dissatisfied.

Then he changed the conversation and continued: "If we find a way to double or even ten times their food shortage, and find a way to widen the material shortage, they will not be able to solve this problem so easily. ”

The chief of staff's eyes immediately widened, and he looked at the commander with an incredulous expression and shouted, "This is impossible. ”

"Sir, we have also had the idea of expanding the food gap of the Eighth Route Army, and we have implemented it."

"The plan at that time was to send agents and task forces to infiltrate the garrison base area and destroy their little food and supplies."

"It worked well at first, but it didn't take long for the agents and squads to come to light."

"The military-civilian relations in the garrison base area are very good, and a very strict foreign population inspection system is implemented. The agents and action teams we sent over were all outsiders, and as soon as they were exposed, some people reported them to the nearby Eighth Route Army troops, and then sent troops to surround and suppress our people. ”

"In half a month of operation, we only destroyed less than 200,000 catties of grain, but we lost dozens of agents and more than a dozen action teams, and the gains outweighed the losses."

The commander shook his head and replied confidently, "Just because your plan has failed doesn't mean that my plan will fail. ”

"Doesn't the garrison base area have a strict system for checking the foreign population? Then I'm going to find a way to render these systems useless, and see what else they can do to find our agents and squads lurking in their bases. ”

"However, the top priority now is to transfer troops, ask for reinforcements from above, and station a sufficient number of troops on the periphery of the garrison base area to form a tight encirclement, so that our economic blockade will be effective."

"So you have to warn the intelligence department and our troops stationed on the edge of the garrison base to shrink their heads for me from now on, and no one can take the initiative to provoke the garrison without an order, so as not to startle the snake."

At the headquarters of the Lingqiu Garrison Regiment, the red light on everyone's faces was obviously a lot more than before.

These are the work of the fishing and hunting teams and the purchasing team.

In order to lighten the burden on the base areas and feed a few more ordinary people, the food supply of the main force has long been reduced to the lowest level, and it can only ensure that the soldiers are well fed and have the physical strength to train and fight.

As for nutrition, don't even think about it.

The appearance of fishing and hunting teams, wild vegetable teams, and procurement teams not only greatly alleviated the food consumption of the main troops, but also increased the diversity of the troops' rations.

Fish and meat, in particular, are not only filling but also more nutritious.

After a few days, everyone's yellow and thin faces were obviously more ruddy.

"Regiment commander, the fifth batch of grain sent back by the procurement team has just arrived at the regiment headquarters, a total of 3,000 catties, 200 catties more than the original."

"In addition, the fishing and hunting team has harvested more than we planned."

"I have ordered the battalions to send all the extra prey to the regimental headquarters for intensive salting and drying. Later, if you can't catch prey or fish, you will take it out to satisfy the warriors' hunger and replenish nutrition. ”

Li Hao nodded and said, "The extra food is also hoarded." ”

"The little devils outside our base area are too quiet during this time, this is not their character."

"As the old saying goes, there must be demons when it comes to abnormality, and they must be brewing a new conspiracy against our base area."

"So we need to seize this rare quiet time and stock up on more food for emergencies."

"If there is a war, no one dares to guarantee that the grain channel in Yi County will not be temporarily interrupted."

Hong Linfeng's face slowly became serious: "Don't worry, head of the regiment, I will personally watch this matter." ”

"All the extra grain is stored in the secret warehouse of the regiment headquarters."

"The soldiers and horses go first before they move the grain and grass, no matter whether the little devils outside the base area have a conspiracy or not, the soldiers' rations must not have accidents."

Speaking of this, Hong Linfeng thought of Li Hao's worries just now, thought for a moment and reminded: "Regiment commander, after the two independent battalions go to Datong, there are only two independent battalions left on the edge of the base area, many of their troops are newly expanded and formed, and they have not yet fully formed combat effectiveness, do you want to transfer the three main battalions to their side, if the Japanese army suddenly launches an attack, they can also respond." ”

Li Hao shook his head and replied, "Not for the time being." ”

"The Japanese puppet army stationed on the edge of our base area has not yet attacked the strength of our garrison regiment, so the base area is still safe."

"When I say that they are not moving, it is not just an attack, but also a troop movement, intelligence reconnaissance, and even an economic blockade......

"If I'm not mistaken, after the independent battalion pulled out the three nails that the Japanese army had planted in our base area, all their intelligence officers were lurking and rarely acted, and the base area had not fought an intelligence war for a long time."

"Their economic blockade of us is the same as before, nothing has changed."

"We pulled out three nails in a row, ate so many of their troops, and took such a big advantage outside Datong City, did the little devil really plan to swallow his anger and do nothing happen."
