Chapter 62: The helplessness of the chief of staff

The devil cavalry supports, the chief of staff looks helpless, the fastest cavalry on the battlefield is speed, advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended, if they are dedicated to escorting supplies, the soldiers may not be close.

The chief of staff had a sad face, there was no way for him to destroy these materials in a short period of time, even if he delayed it, he couldn't delay it for long.

"Chief of Staff, how about you say we trapped the devil transport brigade with mines? Even if the devil cavalry arrives, the night will still have an advantage over us. ”

The words of a battalion commander made the chief of staff suddenly react, yes! As long as you tie up these troops yourself, what if the cavalry comes, they are half useless in the dark.

With a way, the troops immediately went into action, and the soldiers planted mines on the path that the devil transport brigade had to pass, so that these devils could stop here.

The chief of staff sent a telegram to Li Ping about the situation on his side, and Li Ping looked at it and thought in his heart, this method could only delay the devil for a night, and when it was dawn, the devil's cavalry would regain the advantage.

Thinking of this, Li Ping has no choice, he can't divide his troops anymore, according to the devil's urine, tomorrow will be another hard battle.

Li Ping is thinking of a way here, and the head of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army is also thinking of a way to look at the intelligence in various places.

"Boss, the losses of the troops have increased, the devils are really crazy, you see that their various advance routes are coming towards the hinterland of our base area." , The chief of staff sat on the chair after speaking, he had no choice, the devil attacked like this, the Eighth Route Army had to block it, and then let the devil in, the base area would have to be destroyed.

The chief of staff's analysis agreed, and he also grasped the key point, that is, these devils had to enter the hinterland of the Eighth Route Army base regardless of casualties, and the only possibility was that the matter of gold had been exposed, and the purpose of these devils was to recover the gold.

Thinking of this, the boss looked at the map and thought, these gold are bait, if you throw the bait yourself, on the one hand, you can lure the devil into being fooled, and have the opportunity to eliminate one or several of them, on the other hand, you can also reduce the possibility of the political commissar's action exposure, so that the gold can reach Yan'an safely.

With an idea in his heart, the boss immediately discussed it with the chief of staff, and after the two of them subdivided the plan, they immediately sent a telegram to the Eighth Route Army.

The dense telegrams allowed the monitoring devils to get a lot of information, and after some statistics, the intelligence officer came to Sugiyama Moto's office.

"Your Excellency Commander, we have monitored the major movements of the Eighth Route Army, which faintly mentions gold many times, and many of their troops are converging in one direction, which should be to protect that batch of gold."

After hearing this, Sugiyama Yuan stood up directly, his eyes were sharp, and he asked, "Are you sure that this information is accurate?" ”

The intelligence officer was stunned for a moment, and then explained: "Your Excellency, the information is obtained from the monitoring of the Eighth Route Radio, and if you want to confirm the authenticity, you also need to reconfirm the front-line troops and the intelligence network. ”

"Yo Xi, I understand, you continue to monitor the Eighth Route Radio, and I will arrange for the intelligence department to confirm it."

"Hi"

The intelligence officer withdrew, Sugiyama Moto's mood relaxed slightly, it was good that there was news about gold, but many people in the headquarters were ready to use this dereliction of duty to step down, and there were too many people staring at his current position.

The devil's intelligence network is very strong, and the boss ordered the troops to cooperate quietly, and the information that the devil got was that the gold was in transit, and the Eighth Route Army was ready to hide it.

After getting this information, the devils who rushed in the two directions took this direction directly, and the boss sneered after getting the information, the bait of gold is really useful, and the two big fish were hooked like this.

The boss arranged for the troops to prepare to eat these two troops, and on the other side, Li Ping's independent brigade and Itakami Seisishiro's troops were exhausted.

"Baga, send a telegram to ask the cavalry and transport troops, why haven't the logistics supplies come yet?" , Itakami Seishiro was murderous, the ammunition on his side was getting less and less, and the intensity of the charge was reduced a lot.

"Division commanders, they report that the Eighth Route Army is going to block them at all costs, and it is difficult for them to advance at the moment." , the adjutant looked helpless, the blocking troops of the Eighth Route Army planted mines on the road, and every distance advanced was the price of blood.

"Baga, order them, if they can't come here before dark, they will all kill me by shaving my belly." , The angry Itakami Seishiro had red eyes, and if it dragged on like this, it would be difficult to attack, even defense.

Itakami Seishiro was in a hurry, and Li Ping's side was not having a good time, the artillery shells had run out, and the casualties of his own independent brigade began to increase, so if he continued to fight, he had to retreat.

Li Ping looked at the opposite position in a daze, and the political commissar ran over with an excited face, picked up the telegram and said happily: "Brigade commander, the troops have converged with the chief of staff, a total of more than 12,000 people. ”

Li Ping quickly took the telegram, and the more he looked at it, the more smiles appeared on his face, it was really the right choice to disperse the troops to go out for development, and now they are his killer weapon.

"Political commissar, send a telegram to the chief of staff, let him attack in two directions, besiege the devil's transport troops all the way, and attack the county seat of Pingxian all the way, the time has come for us to break the situation."

After Li Ping finished speaking, the political commissar immediately sent a telegram, and Li Ping looked at the devil opposite and sneered.

The battlefield is getting hotter and hotter, and the two sides are fighting a life-and-death battle in this small place, and Li Ping knows in his heart that as long as he survives this day, he will usher in the opportunity for a counterattack.

The attacking devil almost rushed to the position a few times, Li Ping couldn't calm down, looked at the watch in his hand, and looked forward to time going faster.

Li Ping's heart was shocked, and Banhuan Seishiro was also nervous, the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side was too capable of defending, his troops were about to run out of ammunition, and the strength of the charge could not be strengthened.

The gunfire on the battlefield was intermittent, and seeing that it was getting late, Itakami Seishiro was so depressed that he ordered to rest, it was another day, when would he be able to break through the eight-way position?

Just thinking about the ammunition supply, the adjutant had a bloodless face and stumbled in: "The commander of the division, the county telegraph, a force of eight roads is attacking the county seat, and the transport troops are also surrounded by a large number of eight roads, asking for guidance." ”

"Nani, where did the Eighth Route Army get so many troops?" , Itakami Seishiro was shocked, his body was trembling, when did so many troops emerge from the Eighth Road.

"Division commander, the situation is urgent, what should we do?" , the adjutant was worried, if the county seat was taken by the Eighth Road, they would become a lone army with no way out, and they might roll back to Taiyuan in disgrace.

"Baga, what are you waiting for, order the troops to retreat, and it is important to keep the county seat." , Banhuan Seishiro knew in his heart that if the county seat was occupied by the Eighth Route Army, his troops would not only be lonely, but also troops lacking clothes and ammunition, and he would be waiting to be chased and killed by the Eighth Route Army all the way!

At the same time that Itakami Seishiro received the telegram, Li Ping also received a telegram about the movement of the troops, and after reading the telegram, Li Ping immediately ordered the troops to prepare for an attack, and he wanted to leave the devils here.

"Brigade commander, there are more devils here than us, isn't it too dangerous for us to take the initiative to attack?"
