Chapter 161 Bait to Bait

"How do you tempt?" , the chief of staff is interested, the two sides are at war, in addition to strength, strategy is equally important.

Li Ping pulled the chief of staff to sit down, scattered a cigarette, lit the fire, took a puff and said, "Let's assume that the two wings of Sugiyama Yuan came to test it. ”

"In the face of the sudden attack of the two wings, the supreme command system of our division is scrapped, chief of staff, what do you say is the reaction of the troops below?"

"Report the group, shrink, and at the same time block the devil's march route all the way." , the chief of staff blurted out, this was his first reaction.

Li Ping nodded, this judgment is the most accurate, there is no unified command, the troops are scattered all over the place, and their thinking is the same as the judgment of the chief of staff.

In order to prevent being broken by the devils one by one, the troops must report to the regiment, and at the same time, the defense line must be compressed to avoid being divided by the devils, which is the first reaction.

Li Ping looked at the chief of staff and continued to ask: "According to what you just said, since we have released the information that the headquarters was attacked by a sneak attack and we were seriously injured, the first reaction of the troops is the same as your judgment, what do you say we should do?" ”

When the chief of staff heard this, he immediately pointed at Li Ping and smiled, and said: "In the face of the devil's attack, of course, we are preparing to retreat to the hinterland, and at the same time, the base areas are also stepping up their defenses, and the troops in the hinterland of the base areas must immediately establish a defensive line and make a waiting appearance. ”

After speaking, the chief of staff glanced at Li Ping and showed a fox-like smile.

When a telegram from the division headquarters was sent, the commanders of the base areas immediately acted in accordance with the instructions, exchanged fire with the devils, and several regiments were preparing to retreat, while at the same time using guerrilla warfare to slow down the devils' advance.

The others looked like they were on guard, and they looked like they were about to assemble in the hinterland of the base area.

All the information was sent to Sugiyama Yuan in a short period of time, and looking at the information one by one, the devil's chief of staff was overjoyed and said: "Your Excellency, there is really a problem with Li Ping's headquarters, their base area is currently a plate of scattered sand, we can do it." ”

Sugiyama Yuan frowned when he heard this, and said, "Chief of Staff, this judgment is still too subjective, and we can't be careless. ”

Sugiyama Yuan was silent after speaking, the changes of the Eighth Route Army seemed to be in line with the rhythm of problems in the headquarters, but it was not enough, who knows if the Eighth Route Army deliberately cooperated with him, just to let himself be fooled.

"Your Excellency, this is the best time to do so, and we can't miss it." , The anxious appearance of the chief of staff of the devil made Sugiyama Moto's face extremely dark.

Staring at the chief of staff, Sugiyama Yuan opened his mouth and said: "If there is really a problem with Li Ping's headquarters, then it will not be able to return to normal in a short time, and we will have a buffer for a while." ”

"But if this is the bait of the Eighth Route Army, are you letting the Imperial troops go to their deaths?"

Sugiyama Moto's roar made the command quiet, even if you want to retaliate, you must be calm, otherwise you will be pecked blind if you steal chickens, and the situation will be even worse at that time.

The chief of staff of the devil was yelled at by Sugiyama Motoichi and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, just now it was indeed him who was too subjective, and wishful thinking was a big taboo on the battlefield.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency General, but I wanted to get rid of the Eighth Route Army too much."

The apology of the chief of staff of the devil made Sugiyama Yuan nod, this thought may have always been in the minds of the soldiers of the army, Sugiyama Yuan asked the chief of staff to sit down, and said: "If we want to know whether the actions of the Eighth Route Army are true, we need more judgment, that is to say, we need bait." ”

"Order the garrisons in various places and make moves to cooperate with the Yamamoto division."

"Give Yamamoto an order to let his two wings advance slowly, and I need the next reaction of the Eighth Route Army as a basis for inference."

As soon as Sugiyama Moto's order was given, the Japanese army in the entire Shandong Province suddenly took action, looking like they were going to sweep the base area of the Eighth Route Army.

These garrison movements are actions, but now it is Yamamoto who has a headache, and Sugiyama Moto's order makes him a little unable to think about it.

"Division commander, what is the general doing here? Want to use two wings of our division as bait? ”

The devils in the conference room were all angry, if there was really a problem with the Eighth Route Army, it would be okay, and the two wings would be safe.

But if everything is the plan of the Eighth Route Army, these two wings will have to be surrounded by the Eighth Route Army, and there are few troops stationed on their side, so what support will they take when the time comes.

The subordinates' faces are not good-looking, and Yamamoto now thinks about the rats in the bellows, while he must respect Sugiyama Moto's orders, and on the other hand, he must also take care of the safety of his troops, but these two directions are completely conflicting.

"Order the two wings on the front line, let them march in unison, and ensure that they will not be divided and surrounded by the Eighth Route Army."

"Telegraph to the troops in Liaocheng, asking them to draw out a cavalry wing, and an infantry brigade as a mobile force, although ready to support."

Yamamoto made a decision, which was considered a compromise, and his subordinates also agreed silently.

The actions of the Japanese army in Shandong made the intelligence departments of various forces stunned, at this time, Sugiyama Yuan actually had the courage to provoke Li Ping, wasn't he afraid that Li Ping's troops would go crazy?

The strange situation made them pay attention to the situation, and Li Ping and the chief of staff also received information from all over the country, and the two smiled slightly after reading it.

"Division commander, it seems that Sugiyama Yuan is very cautious, the pace of the two wings has slowed down, and the devil garrisons in other places have moved, but there is no sign of dispatch at all."

The chief of staff's words made Li Ping nod, and said with a smile: "Caution is a must, Sugiyama Yuan can't afford to gamble, if he has heavy troops in his hands, I'm afraid he would have rushed up long ago." ”

"Hahaha"

The chief of staff laughed when he heard this, and Sugiyama Yuan suffered a loss in the face of them, so he was so tentative step by step.

"Chief of Staff, Sugiyama Gen wants to use these two wings as bait to continue to test us, and our next move is the key point."

The chief of staff nodded suddenly, and the next move would allow Sugiyama Gen to make a judgment, so he had to let Sugiyama Gen get the illusion that there was indeed a problem with the command on his side.

"Division commander, two wings have entered the base area, and we must send troops to block them, making it look like they are being blocked outside the hinterland of the base area."

Li Ping nodded, and then said: "The transfer of troops from the past is the key, in addition to letting the troops go over to block the attack, other departments must also make the appearance of returning to support." ”

The chief of staff smiled and pointed to the map and said, "One third of the troops from each base area will make the action of returning to block the two wings, and the rest of the troops will hide to ensure that Sugiyama Mototo." ”

"Based on the defense line of the troops in the hinterland of the land to set up a multi-layer defense line, and make our intention to block layer by layer, I don't believe that Sugiyama Gen can still sit still."

Li Ping nodded immediately when he heard this, and said: "The other troops continue to hide, and before Sugiyama Yuan sends troops, they can't be exposed, if there is a problem, Lao Tzu will kill him." ”

After the two discussed, they sent a telegram to the commanders in various places, explaining all the plans, and then these commanders immediately reacted, and the division headquarters actually paid attention to this.

"Order the troops, and a third of the troops will gather at the location requested by the division commander, making it appear that we have dispatched most of our troops."

"At the same time, the militia in the base area was dispatched to temporarily take over the defense line of the troops, and the rest of the troops were hidden from me."

The orders made by the various base areas were similar, and the devil intelligence officers sent out information one after another, and the intelligence department of the Eighth Route Army was immediately dispatched.

Who was the most nervous in the actions of the Eighth Route Army? That is Jinan's Sugiyama Yuan, for two days in a row, the actions of the Eighth Route Army showed a problem, Li Ping's command really had a problem, otherwise according to Li Ping's character, I am afraid that at this time there would have been a lot of war.

"Your Excellency, judging from the current situation, we can indeed dispatch, at least we have to pull the Eighth Route Army out of most of the area and compress their space."

The chief of staff of the devil who calmed down said, Sugiyama Yuan nodded suddenly, if you want to eliminate Li Ping's troops in one fell swoop, you can't do it according to the strength in your hands.

However, this opportunity is a good time for the Eighth Route Army to return to its original position, as long as the Eighth Route Army retreats, their development potential will be curbed by themselves.

Thinking of this, Sugiyama Yuan suddenly stood up and said: "Order all departments to dispatch except for defensive forces, and the Eighth Route Army must be pushed back to the Yanggu area." ”

"Give Yamamoto an order that his two wings will go all the way into the hinterland of the Eighth Route Army's base area, and the other divisions will quickly support them."

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Sugiyama Yuan ordered, and the garrisons from all over the country, who couldn't wait for a long time, walked out of their nests and fought all the way into the defense line of the Eighth Route Army.

Yamamoto received a telegram from Sugiyama Moto, and said with a smile: "There is a problem with Li Ping's command, and His Excellency the General has ordered the troops to move. ”

"Order the two wings on the front line to speed up the pace and make sure to destroy the hinterland of the Eighth Route Army's base area."

"Order the troops in Liaocheng to attack quickly and cooperate with the two wings in front of them."

"Yes, Division Commander"

The devils attacked on all fronts, all the way into the base of the Eighth Route Army, and it was the guerrillas and militia teams that blocked them.

"Yo Xi, it seems that the main forces of the Eighth Route Army have rushed to their hinterland, and this operation will definitely be successful."

Sugiyama Moto's words made the devils in the command laugh, and the chief of staff of the devils asked: "Your Excellency, General, do we want to advance step by step or quickly hit the hinterland of the Eighth Route Army's base area?" ”

Sugiyama's question made Sugiyama Motohaha laugh and said, "The guerrillas and militia left behind by the Eighth Route Army blocked us in order to slow down our rush to their hinterland. ”

"We can't follow the footsteps of the Eighth Route Army, and order all troops to break up the main force of the Eighth Route Army with Meng County and Shixian as the gathering point."

"When the main combat strength of the Eighth Route Army disappears, we will return to clear out the guerrillas and militia and regain control of these places."

"Yes, Your Excellency."

The devil's movements, the intelligence officers and reconnaissance troops of the Eighth Route Army all saw it, for three consecutive days, Li Ping did not make any instructions, let the devil move smoothly, in the command center, Li Ping and the chief of staff waited quietly, seeing that it was getting late, a telegraph man ran in with a telegram: "Division commander, chief of staff, Chen Zhong brigade commander telegram, the troops have completed the deployment, request action."
