"The old fox Okamura Ningji has suffered a big loss this time, let's put him aside first, let's concentrate on dealing with other Japanese puppet army troops in Hebei, since Okamura Ningji is unwilling to deal with us, then we will continue to make trouble, the situation is chaotic, we have a chance." Without the joy of annihilating the three wings of the Japanese army, Zhao Zhi gathered his staff officers early in the morning to discuss the next plan of action.

The volcano operation was not for the so-called recovery of Hebei, the whole plan was just a foreshadowing made by Zhao Zhi for landing in Shandong, and it was a trick to attract the attention of the Japanese puppet army in Hebei and Shandong. The more noisy Hebei is, the more the old fox Okamura Ningci will be restless, and the battle with Zhao Zhi is Okamura Ningci's death hole. Zhao Zhi has successfully made Okamura Ningji begin to question the decision he made, and the next step is to increase military operations in Hebei, and he must make Okamura Ningji, an old guy, unable to eat and sleep.

"How's the implementation of our investment order? How many of them are truly committed to us? "The surrender order is another conspiracy by Zhao Zhi under the banner of the Nationalist Government, and he wants to use the so-called surrender order to create a gap between the Japanese army and Wang puppet officials, and it is best to have some friction. The information provided by the defection personnel is still secondary, and the information provided by the military commander's hidden personnel alone is enough for Zhao Zhi to use, what he wants is only to disintegrate and disintegrate the relationship between the Wang puppet government and the Japanese army, even a small rift is fatal to the Japanese army.

"Our surrender order was not very smooth at the beginning, but after we took Xingtai and Hengshui, nine out of ten Wang puppet officials who were approached by the infiltration team signed the surrender order, and the information they provided was also confirmed by the military commander's hidden intelligence officers." The staff officer in charge of the rebellion of the surrender order recounted the results of the recent operation one by one, "Shall we also publicize the results of the total annihilation of the reinforcements of the Baoding Japanese puppet army and the achievements of the three infantry wings under Okamura Ningji, I think those guys who are still waiting and watching will definitely make a wise choice." ”

"Yes, this matter is left to the people of the military commander, and it is a good hand to engage in propaganda of the national government." Zhao Zhi, who returned to China to participate in the war again, was no longer thinking about hiding the news of Thunder's participation in the war, he just wanted to tell Okamura Ningji that Thunder was coming, and he Zhao Zhi was coming. Zhao Zhi's conditions for Wang puppet officials in the surrender order were not bad, but they were only written to them, and as for whether the post-war Nationalist Government would forgive these speculators who defected to the enemy and treason, it was not something that Zhao Zhi could control.

"Sir, can we consider continuing to expand the battlefield?" A former staff officer of the National Army under Zhao Zhi inquired about it, and Zhao Zhi never looked at the ability of the officers appointed by Thunder and did not look at their background, even if you were born as a bandit and robber, as long as Zhao Zhi thought that he was a capable person, he would be entrusted with a heavy responsibility. The combat staff officer who spoke turned out to be a miscellaneous unit of the national army, which Zhao Zhi found out from the thousands of national army routs outside Chongqing, and it turned out that this guy did have some ability.

Seeing that Zhao Zhi nodded and agreed with his speech, a trace of heat flashed in Lei Hu's eyes, "Xingtai and Hengshui have fallen under our control, and the Japanese puppet army troops in Baoding supporting Hengshui have been completely annihilated by us. I think, can we go north to fight it at the right time, but not to take it, but to attract the Japanese puppet army troops east of Baoding, our large army can take advantage of the situation to go west to besiege Shijiazhuang, if the Japanese army does not want to lose Baoding and Shijiazhuang, they will definitely mobilize heavy troops to help, then their rear will not become empty. ”

"Understood, Lei Hu is a way to attack the east and west, and by the way, it can also give the Japanese army a large-scale encirclement to send reinforcements, this Baoding and Shijiazhuang are bait, but I don't know how many troops the Japanese army will mobilize to come, if there are too many, it will be difficult for us to encircle the point to send reinforcements." The combat staff officers who participated in the discussion agreed with Lei Hu's plan, but they were still a little apprehensive about such a large-scale operation, and once the action was lost or the Japanese army came to the aid on a large scale, the good situation laid by Lei Hu in Hebei would be ruined.

The opinions of the staff officers were not unanimous, and the people who discussed fruitlessly fell on Zhao Zhi, Thunder is Zhao Zhi in charge, and while Thunder is becoming more and more a regular army, Zhao Zhi's control over Thunder is becoming more and more powerful. "Thunder Tiger's plan is good, but the specific details still need to be discussed, everyone go back and make a relevant plan and hand it to me, and I will formulate a new combat action plan based on your plan later." Zhao Zhi was used to doing things that were in the hall, so the staff officers who were arguing immediately stopped arguing.

"Sir, can the plan that Lei Hu said work?" After only Zhao Zhi and a few henchmen were left in the temporary headquarters, Luo Ying, who had been playing the role of a herald, asked cautiously. Unlike Ye Kong and Zhang Jinquan, Luo Ying has lived in Beiping City since he was a child, although he has learned a lot of skills from Zhao Zhi, and he has grown a lot of knowledge in the past few years, but there is still a homeland plot in Luo Ying's heart.

Luo Ying didn't think about it so much, he just thought that since Mr. commanded the troops to take down Xingtai and Hengshui, and now the operational staff under Mr. turned their attention to Shijiazhuang, it would also be able to take Beiping City. The friends of the Tianqiao class don't know how they are doing, Luo Ying, who has loved to listen to storytelling since he was a child, also thinks that one day he will be able to return to his hometown and glorify his ancestors.

Glancing at Luo Ying, Zhao Zhi didn't pay attention to this guy who was sticking up like a dog's leg, but lit the cigar in his mouth with the lighter that Ye Kong came over. Although there are still many loopholes and deficiencies in Lei Hu's plan, it is not impossible to succeed, Zhao Zhi is still waiting for the information sent by the military commander, and there is no relevant information as evidence when formulating the action plan, even Zhao Zhi himself cannot make a correct judgment.

Zhao Zhichang said that war is a struggle for intelligence, and a good commander can find out the information he needs from a seemingly inconspicuous piece of information, and a large amount of information means a large amount of information. Thunder and the military command have cooperated for a long time, and although both sides take what they need, Zhao Zhi believes in the professional ethics of the military commander's intelligence personnel, and as long as the military commander's intelligence network can transmit back the information that Zhao Zhi needs, he will be able to make correct judgments and formulate a new battle plan based on this information.

Just when Okamura Ningji was besieging Yangquan, the anti-Japanese forces in Hebei suddenly disappeared, and Xingtai and Hengshui, which were captured by Zhao Zhi's troops, also shrank their forces. After Okamura Ninji received the information, he immediately locked himself in the room alone and remained silent, since Kawaguchi Shozo's baggage wing and the other two infantry wings were completely annihilated, Okamura Ninji had serious doubts about his judgment, and the situation in Hebei was so abnormal that it was difficult for Okamura Ninji to make a correct decision for a while. Before he could find a good way to deal with Zhao Zhi, Okamura Ningji could only order the Hebei garrison to strictly defend their respective defense areas, and only if they could not avoid the battle would they not be found by Zhao Zhi, as long as the other troops in Hebei could no longer be found by Zhao Zhi before they took Yangquan or returned to the army, Okamura Ningji believed that Zhao Zhi had to take the initiative to withdraw in the end. Zhao Zhi didn't think so, now was not the time for Thunder to leave Hebei, at least he didn't plan to leave here until he drove Okamura Ningji crazy.

"Let's start, tell the guerrillas not to think about saving ammunition, and I'll make it up for them when they run out." Zhao Zhi had secretly assembled at least 100 guerrilla units, which numbered more than 3,000 and were all very familiar with the terrain of Hebei. There is only one enlistment handed over to them by Zhao Zhi, and each guerrilla will shoot more than three Japanese soldiers in at least the next 10 days, of course, this is only the result that Zhao Zhi expects, what he really wants is to make Hebei chaotic again, only when Hebei is chaotic, Zhao Zhi's next plan can continue to be implemented.

With more than 10,000 casualties in 10 days, even the Soviet Union, which is known for its abundant military resources, may not be able to afford such casualties, let alone Japan, which does not have a large number of soldiers. Lei Husheng's plan to attack the east and west did have a certain amount of truth, but Zhao Zhi gave up the siege of Shijiazhuang and chose the tactics of the Eighth Route Army, using one-third of his guerrillas to attack the Japanese puppet army throughout Hebei without stopping.

"Remember your mission, killing and wounding as many Japanese troops as possible is the main task, destroying their strongholds and facilities is a secondary task, between completing the mission and saving yourself, you must first choose to save yourself, killing the Japanese has a chance." Also receiving the order to attack and harass are the 800 reserve snipers under Ye Kong and Zhang Jinquan, who have already experienced the battlefield and have the aura of some mercenary snipers, but this is not enough, Zhao Zhi also needs them to become stronger, this raid is an excellent opportunity.

"Eight Geyalu, what a ghostly guy." On the first day of the attack, the Japanese puppet army in Hebei was attacked by no less than 100 small-scale attacks, and the death of more than 1,000 puppet troops and the surrender of more than 600 imperial allies made Okamura Ningji worried, not to mention the destruction of more than 20 strongholds. The development of the situation has been out of Okamura Ningji's control, and he clearly realizes that this large-scale attack led by Zhao Zhi will not end easily, even if he has ordered the garrisons in Hebei to be strictly defended, but the cunning and despicable Zhao Zhi can always find an opportunity.
