At the end of the night, his lack of combat experience has been revealed!

Although the chief of staff is very arrogant and arrogant, he has already recognized this shortcoming of himself in his heart!

The captain of the garrison in front of him, although his military rank is not as high as his own, he climbed up step by step from the bottom by relying on his combat exploits, and his actual combat experience is definitely richer than himself!

Now that he has this concern, there is at least an eighty percent chance that this judgment will come true!

At dawn, the Eighth Route Army that attacked them ran away, and after dark, they came back to continue to attack Lingqiu City, although this coincided with the plan made by the brigade commander at the beginning, and consumed a large number of the main forces of the independent regiment through defensive warfare!

However, the brigade commander obviously missed a very crucial thing, that is, artillery!

If there is no artillery on both sides, the plan of the brigade commander can definitely be called seamless!

After dawn, the Eighth Route Army ran away, and after dark, it was killed back, anyway, just relying on light replenishment, even if the independent regiment had a tenfold advantage in strength, it was impossible to threaten Lingqiu City!

However, the addition of artillery has caused too much uncertainty in the whole plan!

The Eighth Route Army has artillery, and it also has a lot of powerful mountain artillery, and the only three mortars of the defending troops are not enough to see in front of them, which means that no matter how this defensive battle is fought, the troops will always be suppressed by the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army!

Tonight's defensive battle for one night has already confirmed the existence of such variables!

In just one night, the independent regiment used artillery fire to kill more than 400 defenders, and also advanced the offensive position all the way to more than 40 meters outside the city!

If the Independent Regiment comes back tonight and continues to attack Lingqiu City in the same way, and the defenders lose more than 400 people, then Lingqiu City's original large number of defending troops will immediately become nervous.

At that time, not only will it be impossible to continue to implement the brigade commander's plan, and the main force of the independent regiment will be greatly consumed through defensive battles, but it will also be possible to put Lingqiu City and the entire brigade headquarters into a crisis!

The more the chief of staff thought about it, the deeper his brows furrowed, and then he shifted his gaze to the captain of the garrison, stared at him and asked rhetorically!

"If you have any ideas, just say, don't ramble!"

"Hey!" The captain quickly answered!

"Humble advice, send scouts immediately, follow behind the retreating independent regiment, and find their hiding place during the day!"

"Wait for dawn for our planes to arrive at the battlefield and direct the planes to bomb the hiding places of the independent regiment!"

"In addition, we can also send troops to take the initiative to attack, and under the cover of aircraft, try to eliminate as many Eighth Route Army as possible hidden around the county seat, so as to reduce the pressure on the night defense of the city!"

"During the day, we have planes covering overhead, as long as we don't divide our troops, try to avoid the small roads and take the main roads where we can get air support, there will definitely be no problem with safety!"

The chief of staff was still a mess of his brain just now, and a very clear idea immediately popped up!

His eyes lit up and he analyzed: "Send elite scouts out of the city, follow behind the independent regiment, and find their hiding place!" ”

"After the day is completely dawn, four or five hundred elites are drawn from the city, and under the cover of the aircraft, they go straight to the hiding place of the independent regiment, first the aircraft will carry out covering bombing, and then the troops will press up to harvest the remnants of the enemy! Even if you can't kill the main force of the Independent Regiment, there will definitely be no problem with them being severely damaged in a battle! ”

"At that time, even if the remaining Eighth Route Army comes back after dark, we will not be afraid!"

"Continue to implement the brigade commander's battle plan to consume the independent regiment, drag them to Lingqiu City, and wait for the front-line sweeping troops to complete their tasks and come back to gather and annihilate them!"

"It's a very good idea, I couldn't agree more!"

The captain thought for a moment and added: "Sir, after our scouts are dispatched, we should focus on finding the artillery units of the independent regiment!" ”

"They have eight mountain guns, and that's the heavy weapon that threatens us the most! As long as we can kill their artillery, even if we don't kill a single infantry regiment during the day today, we will be very safe at night! ”

"Good!"

The chief of staff's frowning brow slowly stretched and answered immediately!

"I'm going to call the brigade commander right now and report! You arrange the scouts at once and wait for my orders! ”

After less than five minutes of talking, the chief of staff put down the microphone, slowly showed a smile on his relaxed face, and then ordered!

"The brigade commander has agreed to our plan!"

"Immediately release the scouts who were prepared just now, and let them keep an eye on the retreating independent regiment!"

"The third squadron of the garrison, the third company of the Imperial Cooperative Army, and the special task force, assemble immediately!"

"After the plane to reinforce us arrives, I will personally lead the team out of Lingqiu City!"

"In addition, in order to strengthen the firepower of the sortie troops, draw a heavy machine gun squad to supplement the sortie troops, and the guards I brought will also attack together!"

Outside Lingqiu City, the main force of the Independent Regiment was retreating in an orderly manner under the command of Li Hao.

Li Hao is very confident in his plan and is determined to succeed!

But Chief of Staff Hong Linfeng didn't seem to be so confident, walking beside Li Hao with a worried expression!

As soon as he was about to speak, a squad leader of the reconnaissance company rushed over: "The regiment commander, the chief of staff, Captain Xiao and our company commander asked me to report: the fish has been hooked, and more than 20 little devils have just come out of Lingqiu City, and they are all veteran elites in their movements!" ”

"Good!"

Li Hao was more confident than just now, and he spoke more confidently, and directly ordered with a smile: "Tell you the company commander and Captain Xiao." It's time to get started! ”

"But you must not fight randomly, you must kill the devils, and you can't kill any of the devils who shouldn't be killed, and I still expect them to bring more devils out for me!"

Hong Linfeng's inner worries were also a lot less at this time, and he immediately said: "Regiment leader, if there are devils out of the city, it proves that we can lure the enemy out of the city!" ”

"Just now I was worried that the little devil would not be fooled and would not come out of Lingqiu City!"

"Now it seems that you are right just now, the little devil still has no long memory, and he is still as arrogant as ever, and once again made the fatal mistake of underestimating the enemy!"

"I think that my troops will be invincible when I have airplanes, and I completely forget that there are times when airplanes lose their effectiveness on the battlefield!

"I'll go to the first battalion right now and see if the artillery battalion they prepared for the devils has been completed!"

"The little devils in the city must hate our artillery battalion now, as long as they appear, the devils will definitely pounce like crazy under the cover of the plane, such a good bait, there must be no problems!"

Li Hao searched all over the regiment and found eight soldiers who knew how to carpenter, and they made a move, and finally drove out the eight wooden mountain cannons before dawn!

Pulled by mules and horses with various camouflages on them, a battalion of nearly three hundred soldiers escorted them and retreated along the road in the direction of Lingqiu City!

The little devil scouts in groups of three quickly find the rut marks left by the mountain artillery when they retreated when the commandos deliberately released water!

"Yo Xi, this must be left by the mountain artillery unit of the Eighth Route Army, we will definitely be able to find them if we follow the mountain artillery unit!" The devil Cao Chang, who led the team, shouted excitedly!

Then he ordered with a serious face: "There must be heavy protection of the Eighth Route Army around the mountain artillery, and there may be troops behind the palace, so we must be cautious, until we find the hiding place of their mountain artillery troops, no one can die, and now we will start acting!" ”
