And the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army at this time. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
After receiving a telegram from Wang Long's 88th Division, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army immediately convened an emergency military meeting to discuss what the chances of Wang Long's troops in winning the war against Japan were.
Mr. Zhu passed the telegram one by one to a few people in the conference room to circulate it, and then said worriedly: "That's a brigade of the puppet army, and in Zhangjiakou, there are reinforcements from devils in the direction of Datong, this is a tough battle, and the total number of troops in this encirclement and suppression is more than 20,000 people, I am really a little worried." ”
Chief of Staff Ye said: "Boss, don't worry, although that kid is a little confused, he is definitely not a loser." Didn't you look at this kid's battle plan, the layers are clear, the purpose is clear, and he is facing a puppet army, and he is not a regular army of the little devil, and he only left a company at the command post in Tianzhen Mountain, this posture is not the posture of guarding the mountain. ”
"What do you mean?"
"I think this kid is probably planning to abandon this command post in the mountains of Tianzhen, as for the plan he said, I think he wants to concentrate his forces to break the Japanese puppet army one by one, this plan is good, I'm afraid it will be another war of annihilation!" Chief of Staff Ye said.
"I'm afraid of this, Wang Lung is still young after all, and young people are easy to be proud and complacent. I'm afraid that he will be young and vigorous, and he won't take the devil in his eyes, and in the end, even if the devil is repulsed, his own troops will be exhausted, which is not cost-effective! Mr. Zhu said worriedly.
Chief of Staff Ye said with a smile: "Since Wang Long's 88th Division does not need our support, then they are completely sure that they can repel this encirclement and suppression of the Japanese puppet army." That being said, we can't really stand still. ”
"Oh, what do you think, tell me about it?" Mr. Zhu said.
"Although Wang Lung doesn't need our reinforcements, we can fight our own. We can ask the surrounding troops to send troops to the Japanese puppet army stronghold near Datong or Zhangjiakou, anyway, most of the troops have been transferred by Wang Long's troops, and it is a good opportunity to beat them. So we fight ours, and they fight theirs. And maybe there will be unexpected effects this time! Chief of Staff Ye said mysteriously.
"It's a good idea, haha, they beat theirs, we beat ours, and that's it." Mr. Zhu slapped the table and said.
"Division commander, good news, good news, a cavalry regiment that completely annihilated the puppet army." The telegraph operator ran towards this direction with cheers.
Wang Lung finally smiled, smiled so brightly, rode his war horse and ran towards the city, and the rest of the things were handled by Xuanyi and them, and he could finally have a good rest. Seeing his division commander happily riding a war horse towards the county seat, the telegraph operator shook his head.
Wang Long, who had rested for a long time, finally woke up because of the protest in his stomach, and saw that it was already late, "Long Yi, what time is it?" ”
"Divisional commander, it's almost eight o'clock."
"So soon, Long Yi, notify the cadres above the battalion level of all units to come to the division headquarters for a meeting, and also, give or get some food, I will starve to death."
"Good Rat, Commander, I'll be here soon."
In the conference room, I looked at the commanders of the various units with smiles on their faces. Wang Lung also smiled.
"Xuanyi, let's talk about Datong first, the situation of several troops in the direction of Zhangjiakou!"
"Yes, division commander, according to reconnaissance, there is a brigade of Japanese troops in the direction of Zhangjiakou, the puppet army is transferred from other places, about 6,500 people, at 9 o'clock this morning, from Zhangjiakou, and now about here, this is not far from Huai'an County, and in the direction of Datong is similar to this situation, but the Japanese army in the direction of Datong is faster than the direction of Zhangjiakou, and now it is about 40 kilometers away from us, it may be that we know the information that the puppet army from Ulanqab was completely annihilated, From Yanggao County quickly turned to the direction of Yongshanzhuang Township, and now it is rushing towards our department, if we are fast, on the way to this Japanese army, then we can completely annihilate them again, and then we will use the same method to defeat the Japanese puppet army from the direction of Zhangjiakou. Xuan Yi said as he pointed it out on the map.
"Well, it seems that we all know that the mixed brigade of their puppet army from Ulanqab has been wiped out by us, hehe, Xuanyi, you are reporting the results of our battle all day today.!"
"Yes, division commander, our results this time can be said to be countless. Hehe, let's talk about the annihilation of the enemy first, a mixed brigade of the enemy army was annihilated, with a total of more than 4,320 people, of which more than 2,560 were killed, more than 60 were seriously wounded, and more than 1,800 prisoners and lightly wounded were killed, and all the cadres above the puppet military battalion level were killed, it can be said that now this mixed brigade has disappeared, and we have captured a total of 1,052 war horses and 365 dead, haha, we can have a big meal........." Xuan Yi couldn't help laughing as he said, And the cadres below couldn't help laughing, and Wang Lung also laughed.
"Comrades, don't worry, what else? The joy is still to come? Now let me talk about the capture, we captured a total of 30 mortars, shells, an average of 50 shells per mortar, now we don't have to worry about running out of shells. ”
"22 heavy machine guns, more than 120 light machine guns, more than 3,500 rifles, submachine guns, and countless ammunition were captured."
After listening to Xuanyi's words, Wang Lung was also stunned, with so many weapons and ammunition, it seems that the army will be short of soldiers in the future.
"Then are the casualties of our army large?"
"Division commander, the whole army lost a total of 735 people in this battle, 194 people were seriously wounded, and more than 600 people were lightly wounded, and the light wounded did not affect the battle, and most of the casualties were mainly soldiers of a regiment, with the strength of a battalion to block the cavalry regiment of the puppet army, and then although the rescue was timely, it still allowed the puppet cavalry regiment to rush into the position, but fortunately, the position was arranged in several layers, otherwise the casualties would be greater." Xuanyi said with a sigh.
"Xuanyi, don't say it, I know all this, those martyrs who died in battle are all good, they are all heroes, we will definitely let the enemy taste blood and avenge our martyrs." Wang Lung said viciously.
"Yes, we will definitely avenge our martyrs." The cadres below stood up and shouted in unison.
"Okay, that's all for today's meeting, take a good rest in the evening, and we will continue to hold a meeting at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning to study how to defeat the Japanese puppet army in the direction of Datong or Zhangjiakou. Meeting. ”
Looking at the cadres who came out: "Xuanyi, you will send a telegram to the headquarters in a while, tell the headquarters about the situation here, and make the headquarters happy."
"yes, I forgot, I'm going to send the report." Xuan Yi patted his thigh and said.
Wang Lung looked at the quiet conference room and thought quietly, he knew in the future that this was just the beginning, and no one could say what would happen in the future.
