Xue Yue stood in front of the sand table, this is the simulated terrain of the entire area around Minshan, all the military points are marked with small flags, and the location of the devil's army is also marked.

This concentrated sand table is exactly the same as the actual geographical environment, Qi Rui wants to annihilate the 106th Division with his own ability, it is definitely not enough, so he has to rely on the strength of the fruit army, because these people present are basically the generals of the fruit army who resolutely resist Japan, and the combat effectiveness of the army in the ninth theater is the strongest in the fruit army, Qi Rui is still willing to cooperate with them.

"Brother Qi! Let's start with your thoughts. Xue Yue said.

"I have two plans, one is to divide and annihilate the 106th Division, and the other is to work together to annihilate them, but to achieve these two points, we still need to bring them in! In addition, you also need the strong support and cooperation of your theater army! ”

Xue Yue now represents the commander of the 106th Division, Junrokuro Matsuura, and what he has to do is to find a way to overthrow Qi Rui's tactics, as long as it can't be overturned, it means that Qi Rui's combat plan is feasible.

"Do you think they will still be fooled after previous failures?" Xue Yue asked,

Qi Rui said with certainty: "Definitely, because Okamura Ningji's Eleventh Army wants to attack Wuhan before the second army of King Minoru of the Higashikure Palace, so he gave several divisions of the Eleventh Army an order to advance quickly, and in the eyes of the devils, we deserve to fail, because they have fought too many battles along the way that the fruit army was defeated with one blow." ”

"But they know the combat effectiveness of our 74th Army!" Xue Yue said again,

"It's because they know that the opponent is the 74th Army, so they have to prove their strength! Besides, after two days of fighting, the 74th Army suffered heavy casualties and its combat effectiveness declined, which is also reasonable, they have just lost a wing, and the attack will definitely be more fierce again, so they will definitely be fooled! Because their mission is to quickly advance and capture De'an! ”

"I also think Junrokuro Matsuura will be fooled!" Yu Jishi said,

"Hmmm! I think so, too! Wang Yaowu also said,

Xue Yue also believed in his heart that as long as the arrangements were made, it would not be difficult for the Japanese army to be fooled, so he said to Qi Rui: "Then you can talk about your battle plan!" ”

Qi Rui pointed to the current pass position with an indicator stick and said: "The devil's advance route is the Nanxun Railway, there are not many ways for them to come, and other important locations are heavily garrisoned by fruit troops, so they should still insist on attacking, because the position of the pass is relatively concentrated, and there is no defensive level, so once the pass is broken, they can drive straight in." ”

"Because of the big loss last time, Junrokuro Matsuura should no longer enter the pass as quickly as before, but will ask for air support and let their field artillery 106th Wing bombard the way first!" After Qi Rui finished speaking, he continued,

Qi Rui said that the commanders and staff officers present all agreed, and Xue Yue had nothing to argue with, because if he was Matsuura Junrokuro, he would indeed do this, and the other way was to follow the old path, Matsuura would not be stupid, even if he could, it didn't matter, because Qi Rui's purpose was to let them in.

"Brother Qi! Have you ever thought about it, once the devil enters the pass, then the other positions will be dangerous, what if Matsuura sends troops to attack other positions on both sides to meet the 101st Division? Xue Yue asked,

Qi Rui pointed to a few locations and said, "That's exactly what I want!" What we want is for them to divide their troops, which is why I say that the whole front needs to cooperate in the battle, because we are not really defeated, but the devils waiting for pursuit at this fork! ”

All the commanders and staff officers looked at the sand table, speculating in their minds what the devils would do after entering the pass, and almost unanimously believed that the devils would divide their troops when they entered the pass.

"According to my understanding of Matsuura, he should be divided into three routes, one way to continue to attack along the Nanxun Railway, and the other two roads will be beaten by other positions on the first line of the pass, so as to clear up the future troubles and prevent the enemy from being attacked on the back!" Yu Jishi said,

"Yes! I think so too! If it were, I would do it! Wang Yaowu also said,

Xue Yue looked at the sand table and felt that there was nothing to refute, if he was to do it himself, he would do the same, because if the entire division was to pursue along the Nanxun Railway, once the fruit troops in several other positions copied the back road at the same time, and then the 74th Army counterattacked, then they would have nowhere to run from the enemy on their backs.

And the most important thing is that the 106th Division has no reinforcements, because the 101st Division is now blocked on the front line of Lushan and cannot come at all.

"We hope so, but we also want to prevent Matsuura from taking advantage of the victory to pursue and destroy the fleeing Seventy-fourth Army first! Because he knows that you are the ones who can stop them! Qi Rui said,

"This one may be there! But not much! If I were Matsuura, I would have been more stable, first solve the other positions on both sides, and then meet the 101st Division, and then advance in two ways and only take De'an! Xue Yue said,

"So this is the first battle plan I said, and it is extremely beneficial to us, that is, to divide the 106th Division and annihilate it, according to what you said, the remaining three wings of the 111th Brigade of the 106th Division, 113th Brigade, 147th, and 136th Brigade 145 should act separately, because we will notify the other positions in advance, and what we have to do is to eliminate the devil wing pursuing along the Nanxun Railway as quickly as possible! Then immediately support other positions, so that it will naturally form a flanking attack on the devils! ”

All the commanders and staff officers wanted to overturn Qi Rui's idea, but they were all very far-fetched, no matter how you look at it, the devils can only follow this battle plan, because if they take another battle plan, they will die faster!

"We also have to guard against the stupidity of the 106th Division going south to pursue us, so the fork I said before is where we counterattack! It doesn't matter if the devil is chasing three wings or one wing! This will be an important place for our counterattack! Qi Rui continued,

"Brother Qi deliberately chose the fork in the road as a position, it should be to lure the devil to divide his troops again, right?" Yu Jishi asked,

"That's right! The devil's favorite tactic is to outflank them, once they are blocked at the fork in the road, they will find a way to make a detour, and at this time the defenders of our other positions have already begun to move, and the troops with strong combat effectiveness must immediately outflank the rear of the 106th Division and prick the pocket to death! Send another team to recapture the pass, and immediately build fortifications to prevent the devils of the 106th Division from escaping! It also prevents other troops from supporting the 106th Division. ”

As he spoke, Qi Rui pulled down the flags of several of the positions, and then planted the flags representing the army of the 74th Army and his own troops on the sand table, so that the devils who entered the pass were surrounded by the fruit army after entering the pass at a glance.
