Tsuruta Numan knocked on the table, ignoring the somewhat ugly face of Kanshiro after hearing his words, and said to himself: "With the excellent mobilization ability of the Eighth Road, the Imperial Army, which has always been invincible, is like a blind man in its so-called base area. Without reliable sources of information, it is impossible to solicit supplies. Even if they controlled part of the occupied territory, they eventually had to give it up for many reasons. ”

"When we're gone, those Eight Roads will come back and turn the area we have spent so much time to stabilize back into a sea of red. The empire fights against the Eight Ways like a man fights with flies. If you can't kill them, even if you drive them away for a while, they will soon come back again. ”

"And the Imperial Army's current strength and battle line are too long, and the limited force facing the vast land of China is like a bottle of sake spilled into a well, and nothing can be seen in the blink of an eye. In the current occupied areas, the empire can only rely on the garrisons, plainclothes squads, and some opportunists who have defected to the imperial army. ”

"There are too many people in China, and once they are really mobilized, the Imperial Army will be like a cow with its limbs tied to its limbs in China. So what I mean by this is that the Imperial Army is doing a sweep with as little burning as possible. And take some measures to reassure the people and alleviate the so-called political mobilization of the Eighth Route. ”

"And, most importantly, a two-pronged approach. Politically and militarily, while attacking the Eighth Route, a large number of them were divided and disintegrated. Give preferential treatment to those military and political personnel of the Eighth Route who are willing to serve the empire. Carry out fierce military strikes against those stubborn Eighth Route troops. ”

"Give the harshest punishment to those villages who support the Eighth Road, just like Wangjiagou. They must be allowed to choose to take sides, to choose to side with the Imperial Army, to accept a stable life and the protection of the Imperial Army. Or stand on the side of the Eight Roads and accept severe punishment. To deal with these so-called base areas of the Eight Routes, it is necessary to hold a butcher's knife in one hand and a carrot in the other, just as the Americans did with the Indians in the past. ”

Tsuruta Numa's words made Kanshiro Rakuai fall into deep thought. After a long time, he said: "Tsuruda-kun, I will try some of your methods." However, this cannot be implemented only by myself, and it needs to be adopted by all units of the entire division and regiment in order to be more effective. ”

Luo Hekanshiro's answer, Tsuruta Numanan smiled and said, "Luo Hejun, I am naturally clear about this. My opinion is that we should first test it in Hubei. If it works, it will be promoted in all areas under the jurisdiction of the whole division and regiment. The division commander and the chief of staff, I will report it. ”

"Also, once my plan is really implemented, I hope to conduct a combat test in your defense zone first. Old classmate, this is a method that I have come up with for a long time in accordance with the education method of Nakano School, plus the actual situation of the division and regiment. If it succeeds, I think it won't be difficult to find and eliminate their high command. ”

Although I don't know what kind of plan Tsuruta Numa's so-called plan is. And Tsuruta Numan didn't say it, and Kamishiro Rakuai didn't want to ask. Anyway, this guy who is always sneaky won't push himself into the fire pit. So for his request for cooperation, Luo Hekanshiro still nodded generously and agreed.

After receiving the nod of Kamishiro Rakuga, Tsuruta Numanan was satisfied with the prisoners of war handed over to him by Kawashiro Rahe, and left Hubei overnight to return to Changzhi. For Numu Tsuruta, time is of the essence, and it is also his ladder to higher positions. There are times when I feel that Tsuruta Numu has wasted too much time in Hubei.

After Tsuruta Numanan left, looking at the battle report on the office desktop, Kanshiro Rakuai felt that his head was a little faintly painful. Although Xiao Jiu Nan Shaozo is purely looking for his own death, but the special status of this old man makes Luo Hekanshiro really not know how to write this report. And Kokunan is a young lieutenant, not a second lieutenant.

However, the report is difficult to write, but Luo Hekanshiro Shaozuo has made up his mind to draw all the troops that can be drawn, and give severe punishment to Wangjiagou who is hiding in the eighth road after half a month. At the same time, he ordered various strongholds to send troops to continuously reconnoiter into the mountains to find the whereabouts of the Tubalu.

This Luo Hekanshiro Shaozo, like a crazy dog, tried every means to find Li Ziyuan and his troops, and get rid of them as soon as possible. For Luo Kasuma Shiro Shaozo, Tsuruta Numa's parity with this Tsuchihachi Road, whether it is right or not, it doesn't matter to him.

Nipping his opponent in the bud was his only thought. Regardless of whether Tsuruta Numanan's idea is right or wrong, for Kanshiro Rakuai, the best way to deal with him is to completely eliminate this team. In order to find out the traces of this team as soon as possible, he even sent Liu Kaishan's plainclothes team, which has always been mainly active in Hubei County.

As for Tsuruta Numa's intelligence department, it is obvious that Kanshiro Rakuai is not very trusting, and it is better for him to rely on nothing than on himself. Coupled with the old classmate's usual mysterious style, Kamishiro Rakuai decided to come by himself.

At the same time that Luo Hekanshiro Shaozuo was a little worried about how to write this report. Li Ziyuan, who had already led the team to evacuate Wangjiagou, was also looking at the new station that Guan Li had chosen for him. Although the temple in front of him is dilapidated, the main hall is already in ruins. However, a few side rooms are quite complete, and they can be lived in with a little tidying.

This dilapidated temple faces a mountain road, and behind it is the Mangmang Taihang Mountain. Its location is also surrounded by trees. As soon as there is a situation, the troops can withdraw to the mountains in the shortest possible time. There is a mountain spring next to the temple, so there is no need to worry about the water source at all. The straight-line distance between Wangjiagou and Lijiawa is less than thirty miles.

After carefully inspecting the terrain here, Li Ziyuan is quite satisfied with this location. Immediately brought the troops over and cleaned them up briefly. The shelves and beds were built with wooden planks, and a few large bunks were built on the grain grass to be the barracks. Although the windows are dilapidated and the doors are long gone. But nailing it with a quilt can also be a temporary alternative.

Of course, for this new station, all the soldiers, whether they are recruits or the personnel of the original district squad, are very dissatisfied. Although it is early spring, the night in the mountains is still very cold. In the villager's house, there is a fire kang, doors and windows are complete, although the conditions are also very simple, but at least it is much warmer.

However, Li Ziyuan insisted on choosing this place as a new garrison and forcibly suppressed the opposition of the troops. In his words, you are not here to be a soldier to enjoy happiness, but to fight devils. It is common for troops to march, fight, and sleep in the wilderness. It's a little broken here, but it's better than sleeping in the wilderness, and it's better than sleeping in a damp trench.

If anyone can't bear this hardship and wants to sleep on a hot kang head, then put down the gun and run home as a deserter more comfortable. A deserter's big hat was buttoned down, and everyone's stomach full of opinions could not be mentioned again. can only follow his wishes, and all of them have been relocated. Fortunately, although the conditions are a little worse, these wings are still relatively neat.

The floor paved with green bricks is still largely intact. Although the windows are a little broken, and the window paper has long been missing, the rough frame is still about the same. From these well-preserved things, it can be seen that this temple was built at the beginning, but a lot of painstaking work was put into it. These wings are cleaned a little, and some good tiles are found from the useless houses to make up for them, and they can still barely live in them.

After relocating to this dilapidated temple, the first thing Li Ziyuan did was to formulate a strict light and dark sentinel system. Not only were there clear posts at the foot of the mountain and at the mountain gate, but two secret posts were also deployed on the mountain road. In addition, a strict lighting control system is implemented, and all fires are not allowed to leak out at night. Look up from the foot of the mountain and not see a trace of light.

Wangjiagou was attacked by a sneak attack, because the sentry did other things when they were on guard, and did not put down the news tree in time, which led to the Japanese puppet army being discovered only after feeling under their noses. The same fight was almost fatal once, and Li Ziyuan didn't want to fall a second time.

After convening another work deployment meeting between the squadron and the squad cadres, Li Ziyuan, who personally checked the sentry, did not return to the wing room that was temporarily used as the team headquarters to rest. Instead, in front of the main hall, where there are only three walls left, on the beautifully carved stone offering table, looking at the rather bright starry sky in the mountains, I don't know what I am thinking.

Li Ziyuan felt that he and the female instructor were obviously at odds with each other. Before leaving Wangjiagou, the two of them quarreled again about the arrangements of the people of Wangjiagou. made Li Ziyuan a little speechless about the secretary and instructor of the district party committee, these two people quarreled twice in a few days of contact, how can they live in the future?

Looking at Li Ziyuan, who was looking at the sky in a daze, Guan Li, who came to look for him, smiled: "Captain Li didn't sleep all night last night, aren't you tired?" Still thinking about an argument with an instructor? Captain Li, it's not that the instructors you said don't understand. But now that spring ploughing is imminent, this delay is a year's time. Not to mention that the instructor will not agree, even the villagers in Wangjiagou will not agree. ”

"I also know that you are right in this idea. Although the devil didn't suffer too much loss this time, he was killed by a young man, and it was almost impossible not to retaliate. Once the devil turns around and kills back, the people of Wangjiagou will definitely suffer. But at this time, there is really no delay. ”

"Besides, we are all strong men, and we have nothing to do for a few days in the mountains. But the villagers of Wangjiagou are old and young, and they can't stand it in the mountains at this time. Instructor Chang is not just an instructor, she is also the secretary of the district party committee of our second district. She has to think not only about the team, but also about the local work. ”

"She is now back in the district, one is to raise some food for us, and the other is probably to make some preparations for these things, to raise some wood and bricks and tiles. You can rest assured, the second area is the only stable area in our Hubei, and it is close to the main control area of the little devils. ”

"Instructor Chang is a little stubborn, but she doesn't have any bad intentions, and her ability to work is absolutely inadequate. The little thing between her and you is also from work, not the kind of person who grabs people's pigtails at every turn. After all, she is a female cadre, as long as it is not a matter of principle, it is not a bad thing for you to let her have some. ”
